Named after a line in David Cronenbourg's "Videodrome," New Flesh (or New Flesh For Old) have existed since the early nineties. As a loose collective of artists they have consistently shocked and surprised with the music they have made, earning their tag as "one of the maddest and best Brit crews" (DJ magazine). The key members of New Flesh are Part 2 (Keith Hopewell), Toastie Tailor (Garvin Edwards) and Juice Aleem. Their three albums on Big Dada are "Equilibrium" (1999), "Understanding" (2002) and "Universally Dirty" (2006). Part 2 and Juice Aleem both also produced solo albums for Big Dada. Consistently ahead of their time, the band's work has been wildly influential and a byword for futurism within UK hip hop.
To celebrate the release of Roots Manuva's fifth studio album, the superb 4everevolution, Big Dada's tired father Will Ashon has put together a 17 track playlist of classic Manuva performances.Read More

Pet deaths from jerky treats remain big mysteryAbout 580 dogs and cats have died from eating jerky treats since 2007 and some 3,600 have gotten sick, yet the cause of the remains a mystery, and now the Food and Drug Administration is asking for help with its investigation into the unexplained deaths and illnesses from veterinarians and pet owners.Story continues below----------------------------------------------------------------------A book about a rescue dogthat will touch your heartTHE HUNT OF HER LIFE, is a nonfiction book about Samantha, an unwanted rescue dog who the author adopts at age 2. This beautifully designed deluxe full-color book, by longtime newspaper journalist Joseph A. Reppucci, contains more than 60 vibrant color photos of dogs to help illustrate the compelling and uplifting story of Samantha - a pretty tricolor bird dog who uses her warm personality to win people over and build a new family after being put up for adoption by a hunter because she is gun-shy and afraid to hunt. Learn how she uses her special bonding abilities with people to help her eventually make a transition from the hunting fields to family life. While reading the The Hunt of Her Life, you will travel with Samantha and the author along a trail filled with surprising twists, sudden turns, mystery and even what some call a miracle. And when the journey is finished, you may never look at people and their pets, motherhood - and perhaps even God - in the same way. The Hunt of Her Life is must reading. It will take you on a captivating journey - a trip like no other - that will touch your heart.Available at:Createspace.com (an Amazon.com company)Also find it on: Amazon.comLike it on: Facebook/thehuntofherlifeJoin us on: Goodreads.comCLICK HERE FOR A FREE LOOK INSIDE THE BOOK----------------------------------------------------------------------Story continues here"This is one of the most elusive and mysterious outbreaks we've encountered," Dr. Bernadette Dunham, director of the FDA's Center of Veterinary Medicine, states in a media release. "Our beloved four-legged companions deserve our best effort, and we are giving it."Since 2011, the Center of Veterinary Medicine has conducted more than 1,200 tests; visited jerky pet treat manufacturers in China; and collaborated with colleagues in academia, industry, state labs and foreign governments. Most of the jerky treats implicated have been made in China. Inspections of the facilities in China that manufacture jerky products associated with some of the highest numbers of pet illness reports did not identify the cause of illness.More than 1,200 jerky pet treat samples have been tested for chemical and microbiological contaminants, from antibiotics to metals, pesticides and Salmonella. DNA testing has also been conducted along with tests for nutritional composition.Within hours of eating treats sold as jerky tenders or strips made of chicken, duck, sweet potatoes or dried fruit, some pets have exhibited decreased appetite, decreased activity, vomiting, diarrhea (sometimes with blood or mucus), increased water consumption or increased urination. Severe cases have involved kidney failure, gastrointestinal bleeding and a rare kidney disorder. About 60 percent of cases involved gastrointestinal illness, and about 30 percent involved kidney and urinary systems. The remaining cases reported various symptoms, such as collapse, convulsions or skin issues.The FDA advises owners whose pets become ill after exacting jerky treats to seek veterinary help and save any remaining treats and the packaging for possible testing.Dr. Doug Aspros, former president of the former American Veterinary Medical Association, advises pet owners to consult with their veterinarian about food they feed their dogs and cats. "The best thing to do ... is to talk to their veterinarian about anything they're feeding their pets," he states in a media release.Dr. Aspros urges pet owners to help the FDA with its investigation. "We need to identify the dogs that have had symptoms and have been associated with jerky treats," he said.Tim Evans, an associate professor of veterinary pathobiology at the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine and a veterinary toxicologist, also is encouraging pet owners to help the FDA find the cause of the problem. �The FDA and scientists around the country have been working on this problem tirelessly for many years, but it has been a very difficult process because no obvious ingredients in the jerky treats have been found to cause this illness,� Evans states in a media release. �Hopefully with this latest call for help from veterinarians nationwide, the FDA will collect enough information soon to determine why this illness is occurring.�Owners concerned about this illness should refrain from feeding jerky treats to their dogs and cats since the treats are not a part of an essential pet diet, and pets who eat jerky treats on a regular basis should be watched for signs of illness, Evans said.�While the loss of any pet is tragic, only a very small percentage of pets has been affected by this strange illness during the past six years,� Evans said. �If pet owners have been feeding their dogs or cats jerky treats containing chicken, duck, sweet potatoes and/or dried fruits, I would recommend they stop feeding the animals the treats immediately and monitor their pets� health. While there may not be a cause for immediate alarm, owners of small-breed dogs that have consumed these treats on a regular basis, especially those with pre-existing health conditions, might want to have their pet examined by their regular veterinarian and have some laboratory testing performed."More reports about dogs and food:Here's a better way to feed your petThis common artificial sweeter is killing dogsToxic levels of chemical found in dog foodsCheap pet food leads to costly health problemsHigher price no guarantee of pet food's qualityChocolate, candies mean danger for dogsAppetite ferocious for premium pet foodAnother warning about chicken jerky treatsMore pets being told 'eat your veggies'More news about dogs and foodTo report a compaint about a pet jerky treat, go to www.fda.gov.HOMETHE RUFF REPORTSo easy to read.

Biography(Masterpieces of American Literature)
John Updike was born on March 18, 1932, in Shillington, Pennsylvania, the only child of Wesley and Linda Grace (Hoyer) Updike. His early years were spent in the Shillington home of his mother's parents, John and Katherine Hoyer. When John was thirteen, they moved to the old family farm in Plowville, ten miles outside Shillington, where John's mother had been born. These were lean years for the family, which was supported only by his father's meager salary as a mathematics teacher at Shillington High School. Though poor, his parents were well educated and had high aspirations for their son, who showed an early aptitude for art and writing.
Influenced by The New Yorker, the youthful Updike was determined to become a cartoonist and writer for that magazine. His mother, who had literary aspirations of her own, became determined that John should go to Harvard University. Because of his good grades, Updike won a full scholarship in 1950 to Harvard, where he majored in English and was editor of the Harvard Lampoon. He graduated with highest honors in 1954. He met his future wife, Mary Pennington, a Radcliffe student and daughter of a Unitarian minister, while he was a sophomore. They married in 1953, when Updike was a junior. In 1954, Updike published his first story in The New Yorker.
The Updikes spent a year during 1954-1955 at the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art in Oxford, England, financed partly by a Knox Fellowship. Their first child, Elizabeth, was born during this time. After publishing four stories and ten poems in The New Yorker during that year, Updike was offered a position as The New Yorker's "Talk of the Town" reporter. The Updikes settled in New York City; Updike wrote for The New Yorker until 1957, when he felt the need to leave the city to devote his full time to writing. In April, 1957, they moved to Ipswich, Massachusetts, where they lived for the following seventeen years. In 1958, his first book, a collection of poems called The Carpentered Hen and Other Tame Creatures, was published. In 1959, Updike published The Poorhouse Fair, his first novel, and a collection of stories, The Same Door. His second child, David, was born in 1957. In 1959, Updike's second son, Michael, was born; in 1960, his last child, Miranda, was born. The Ipswich years saw Updike not only as a prolific writer but also active in community affairs. He was a member of the Congregational Church and the Democratic Town Committee.
It was during that same period—the late 1950's and early 1960's—that Updike faced a crisis of faith prompted by his consciousness of the inevitability of death. His reading of the works of Danish philosopher and theologian Søren Kierkegaard and, especially, the Swiss neo-orthodox theologian Karl Barth helped him overcome this crisis and find a basis for faith. A preoccupation with the sense of death runs throughout...

Rated 5 out of 5�by Chuck Best Conditioner on the Market Purchase Nokona to re-condition several of my old gloves before starting the season. Absolutely love it. Will recommend to my team... April 18, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by ThomasG Amazing this conditioner work great can't say anything bad about it. Absolutely love it March 11, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Eg77 Great Conditioner I purchased this product to use with my new Nokona glove. I have applied a few coats and it really seems to soften the leather and make it more playable. May 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Turn2AllDay Awesome Product! I purchased the Nokona Glove conditioner for its intended purpose. This stuff will soften the leather, hence making the break-in process a little easier; however, it is a conditioner. Therefore this is meant to extend the life of your glove while bringing the leather back to a soft supple feel. Much like you would apply lotion to your skin to avoid dryness/cracking, this is the equivalent for your glove but without adding weight by soaking into the leather. This stuff makes your glove feel softer and much more plyable when in comes to forming the glove to your hand as well. Buy this stuff if you play ball and are tired of using an old dried out glove or if you simply want to extend the life of your new one. You WILL NOT be disapointed! May 19, 2013

Roy H. Bailey Souris—Moose Mountain, SK
Madam Speaker, I want the 265 sailors aboard the destroyer, HMCS Iroquois , which departed Halifax Harbour for the Arabian Sea yesterday, to know that our thoughts and our prayers go with them.
Twelve years ago Canada sent other brave men and women into the gulf war to drive Saddam Hussein out of Kuwait. They knew they had a duty to perform. They went willingly and they went bravely.
When they returned from the gulf war we soon discovered that all was not well. Medical terms we had never heard of before started cropping up, such as gulf war syndrome and post-traumatic stress disorder, and appeared to be affecting many of our returning vets.
While our American allies have come a long way in helping their vets deal with gulf war syndrome and other disorders, many of our own gulf war vets say that Canada is lagging sadly behind in looking after them.
Let us give a clear message, demonstrated by our actions, that Canada will do its duty to look after the needs of our veterans after they return.

Madame Speaker, on Thursday, primary school students from my riding marched for peace in the streets of Saint-Jérôme, to show their concern for the children of Iraq, because a socially aware school inhabits the earth.
Yesterday, I met with some of these children from La Fourmilière alternative school, who asked me to give the Prime Minister the following message:
We are six and seven year old children and we do not want to have a war. We are scared and worried. At school, the teachers teach us peaceful ways to resolve our conflicts. You know, we could teach you some. Thank you for listening to us.
These young children gave me cards and drawings to give to the Prime Minister and asked me if what they were doing was important. I told them yes and that I would make sure to pass on their messages of love and peace.
What these children did, their questions and their hope-filled eyes, moved me. May they silence the guns and open our hearts to peace.

Mr. Speaker, in my riding on Sunday, February 16, I had the pleasure of co-hosting Heritage Day celebrations for the Parkdale Intercultural Association at the Parkdale Public Library.
The third Monday in February has been set aside each year by the Heritage Foundation to recognize and increase awareness of this country's diverse architectural and built heritage. This year's theme was the "Heritage of Our Town".
We took this occasion to celebrate the diversity of our riding and at the same time to celebrate this country's diverse heritage by celebrating the diversity our rich cultures.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone and our sponsors who helped make this event a great success.

Dick Harris Prince George—Bulkley Valley, BC
Mr. Speaker, yesterday in the public accounts committee the member for Mississauga West, in a failing effort to somehow justify the 500% cost overrun of the government's gun registration program, accused the Auditor General of having an individual with an anti-gun control bias on her advisory board.
The disrespect shown by the member for Mississauga West toward Canada's financial watchdog is reprehensible and he should be ashamed of himself.
These actions, unfortunately, are typical of an out of control government that continually refuses to admit its failed performance in every respect.

Marlene Jennings Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine, QC
Mr. Speaker, it is with great sadness that I rise today to draw the attention of the House to the tragic death of Mr. Charles Devlin this past weekend.
Mr. Devlin, a former labour commissioner, was simply being a Good Samaritan when he intervened in a disturbance at the Villa Maria Metro Station in my riding of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine.
For this brave show of concern on behalf of his fellow citizens, Mr. Devlin was pushed to the ground where he suffered the injuries that ultimately claimed his life over the weekend.
Mr. Devlin was a victim of an incomprehensible act of violence. It is a terrible tragedy that we know could have been avoided. The message from all of this is clear: there is no place for violence in our society.
Before I close, I wish to express my deepest condolences to the wife and family of Mr. Charles Devlin, a man who clearly understood that violence leads nowhere and has no place in our society.

Yvon Godin Acadie—Bathurst, NB
Mr. Speaker, Bathurst, in my riding of Acadie—Bathurst, takes great pride in co-hosting the 2003 Winter Games with Campbellton, New Brunswick.
Bathurst is in a party mood and looks it. The Chaleur region has put a great deal of effort into making sure that the hundreds of participants enjoy top quality games. The city of Bathurst is busy earning a reputation as a hospitable city like no other.
To all the athletes from all over Canada who will put their best into fulfilling their dream, we wish the best of luck. The athletes, their families and their coaches have all worked hard and made many sacrifices, and are rightly proud of themselves.
At this time, there are more than 6,000 volunteers working to make this event an unforgettable success.
In my capacity as the member for Acadie—Bathurst, I wish to express sincere thanks to all those who have had a hand in these Winter Games. They all deserve medals too, for their devoted efforts.

David Pratt Nepean—Carleton, ON
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express the gratitude and admiration of Canadians to the crew of Her Majesty's Canadian ship Iroquois and her Sea King detachment who departed Nova Scotia for the Arabian Sea.
This deployment represents a significant contribution to coalition operations and demonstrates Canada's ongoing commitment to the campaign against terrorism.
HMCS Iroquois will meet up with HMCS Montreal and HMCS Winnipeg , which are currently serving in Operation Apollo, and will act as a flagship of the coalition task force 151.
Canada just recently took command of this task force which is responsible for escorting ships and intercepting vessels in the gulf area.
The deployment of the Iroquois , a destroyer with state of the art command and control and air defence capabilities, will allow us to fulfill these responsibilities even more effectively.
Since Canada joined the campaign against terrorism in October 2001, members of the Canadian Forces have distinguished themselves among our allies as a force that is professional, capable and ready to serve. I am sure that the HMCS Iroquois will further contribute to this enviable reputation.
Centenary of Hébertville-Station

Sébastien Gagnon Lac-Saint-Jean—Saguenay, QC
Mr. Speaker, today I would like to draw to the attention of the House the fact that this year marks the hundredth birthday of the municipality of Hébertville-Station.
Anyone who has had an opportunity to meet the people there will know how determined, dynamic, courageous they are, and what joie de vivre they share. These characteristics have been brought out on a number of occasions over the years.
Their determination is what brought them through such hard times as a great fire in 1930, another in 1943, and a hurricane in 1975.
Their courage has been shown on numerous occasions, and in particular by their daring to elect as their first mayor a young man under 20, Louis-Nazaire Asselin. Perhaps that is also why they had the courage and determination to elect the two youngest MPs as their representatives here in Ottawa.
Finally, as for their joie de vivre, I invite everyone to experience that for themselves as they celebrate their centenary.

Geoff Regan Halifax West, NS
Mr. Speaker, this weekend Halifax's Colleen Jones managed an unprecedented curling hat trick. Doing Bluenosers everywhere proud, Colleen and her Mayflower rink won their fifth Scott Tournament of Hearts, their third victory in a row.
Let me quote from the Halifax Herald earlier this week:
...At this point, the Jones team has little to prove. They are only the second team to three-peat in the championship's history and have been stellar representatives for this province and this country. Their curling prowess and talented determination is unmatched in the record books of women's curling.
While Men With Brooms might be a good movie, Colleen Jones and her rink have proven that curlers from Nova Scotia sweep the competition away. I congratulate them.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today in the House to speak on behalf of the seniors of Canada.
In the budget that was brought down last week there was no mention whatsoever of the seniors in Canada. Our phones have been ringing off the wall because the seniors in this country are going to be the largest percentage of our population in just a few years.
I was stopped on the street this past weekend in my riding of Saint John, New Brunswick, by a senior who said "Elsie, I have to have some help. They have once again increased my rent and I cannot afford this because my Canada pension is not being increased". This senior also said that housing was needed.
CMHC used to build housing for the seniors. It is not there anymore.
There is absolutely nothing for the seniors in this budget and the government should be ashamed of itself.

Mr. Speaker, students from École polyvalente Charles-Gravel and École Dominique-Racine, as well as representatives of Bleuets pour la paix, came to my office to deliver petitions for peace. These petitions contain several thousand signatures.
We were able to discuss how important it is for the current negotiations and the work of the United Nations weapons inspectors to be successful. We reached the obvious conclusion that if there is to be peace, both parties must want it.
So, I will have an opportunity to present the Prime Minister with the numerous petitions that I received.

James Moore Port Moody—Coquitlam—Port Coquitlam, BC
Mr. Speaker, a student on her way to middle school in Port Moody was grabbed by an attacker. Two masked men with bear spray and a gun held up a McDonald's in Coquitlam. An 18 year old Port Moody woman may have lost the vision in one eye after an assault. All these incidents happened in the past six days.
The menace of street racing, the horror of the Pickton pig farm, the terrible murder of Breann Voth, and the beating and shooting death of a 17 year old student have all taken their toll on the Tri-Cities.
Coquitlam RCMP and Port Moody Police resources are being stretched and exhausted. Many minor offences cannot be properly addressed because major crime investigations are swallowing their budgets. The Tri-Cities have one of the lowest officer to citizen ratios in all of Canada and this reality is not good enough. The City of Coquitlam is spending $17 million for police protection and is not getting the support it needs from the government.
The Liberals found $114 million for a new official languages program and $172 million for an aboriginal cultures centre, but not a single new dime to help fight crime in the Tri-Cities. The Liberals should be ashamed of their warped priorities and for jeopardizing the safety of my constituents.

Mr. Speaker, I want to ask questions about the operation of the government's ethics code and so-called blind trusts.
The former finance minister's company was caught and charged with dumping oil into Halifax harbour last March. The former finance minister then received special briefings on the incident. Under the ethics code, why did this incident with Canada Steamship Lines require the direct knowledge or involvement of the former finance minister?

Mr. Speaker, under the guidelines, the Registrar General has some authority to inform the person of some incident and in the judgment of the Registrar General, as it says under section 6 of the agreement, "as may otherwise be allowed by the Assistant Deputy Registrar General", who in that case felt that it was his duty to inform the minister.

Mr. Speaker, the former finance minister's company was charged last March. In November, CSL reached a plea bargain arrangement with the government. We now know that the former minister was briefed twice during this period.
Under the ethics code, why was the public not informed of this as openly as the minister was?

FD council acts on garage
Fort Dodge City Council members voted Monday to spend about $1,250 to shore up a privately owned garage so that it will not collapse during the reconstruction of part of Sixth Avenue Northwest.
The garage, owned by Don Woodman of 526 Second St. N.W., is at the bottom of the hill where Sixth Avenue Northwest and Second Street Northwest intersect. According to City Manager David Fierke, it is 2 1/2 feet over the property line and into the public right of way.
Fierke said there is some concern about what could happen to the garage when the street project begins. He recommended going ahead with the project and working with Woodman to shore up the structure.
"We don't need the issue of the city knocking over private property," Mayor Matt Bemrich said. "I think for sure we have to shore this thing up because we can't be responsible for a garage falling down."
Councilman Dave Flattery said that a retaining wall estimated to cost $45,000 will be built as part of the street project to protect the garage.
"It just doesn't make sense to me that we're going to spend $45,000 to protect a garage that looks like it's going to fall down," he said.
However, Flattery joined the other six council members in a unanimous vote to shore up the garage and obtain a temporary construction easement so that a contractor can go onto Woodman's property to do the work.
Councilmen Mark Taylor and Don Wilson volunteered to help Woodman repair his garage after the project is done.
After the meeting, Bemrich said the council's action means that public money will be spent to put supports in place to prevent the garage from collapsing during the road project.
In a report to the council, Fierke wrote that the cost of doing that work was estimated at $1,250.
In other business, the council gave preliminary approval to a plan that would make it easier for a downtown business to set up a sidewalk cafe or outdoor retail sales area. Under the proposal, the business would have to meet some requirements and get a permit from the city staff. Now, businesses wanting to set up such an area must get approval from the city's Board of Adjustment. The change must be approved two more times to become law.
Also, the council approved the second reading of a measure establishing the 2013 Consolidated Urban Revitalization Area. That measure provides property tax incentives for the construction of new housing and significant rehabilitation work on existing housing. It also includes incentives for commercial and industrial development.
The incentives enable a property owner to forgo paying the property tax on a portion of a home's value for up to five years or gradually phase in the new tax burden over a decade.
The plan must be approved once more to become law.
In an unrelated matter, the council hired Devin Schipper as a firefighter. He has experience as a volunteer firefighter in Le Mars and Spencer and is now earning a fire science degree at Iowa Central Community College.

A basic concept behind the Advanced Metering Infrastructure is the ability to collect information from the customer meter. This scenario describes the process of acquiring interval data from the residential meters. The data includes information presently gathered from traditional meters such as accumulated energy, demand, and time-of-use information. The information gathered must be available to multiple clients. These multiple clients could retrieve the data from a meter, a place within the network, or the back office. The electric utility can benefit from installation of AMI by reducing Meter Reading forces (as well as other field personnel) and the supporting infrastructure (buildings, vehicles, etc.), streamlining customer service in such areas as billing inquiries, establishing new service connections, improving billing accuracy, providing advanced energy data for forecasting, procurement and settlement, creating additional tariff options, and tracking customer response to demand response programs. Related to this scenario is gathering newly available data such as net metering, interval energy data, power quality, excessive demand thresholds, results of meter self-test status, and other meter event messages.
This use case does not specify the actual end users of the data, but they may include the billing system, ISO, ESPs, meter reading agents, load research, forecasting and settlements, outage management systems, building management systems, distribution operators, maintenance, markets, and customer service. Clients may read data for multiple purposes, including periodic billing, off-cycle billing, outage verification, high bill complaints (or other customer service issues), building automation, bill disaggregating, or local energy management. This scenario excludes gathering of data from customer premise sensors behind the meter (that is covered in case C4).

Air Canada's Leisure Unit Adds New Air to Ground System
Air Canada has selected ARINC to provide air-to-ground communications for its leisure group airline, Air Canada rouge.
ARINC will provide its Globalink voice and data infrastructure for Air Canada rouge. Data link services will be the primary communications option for the leisure airline, providing communications between flight crews and ground support, such as dispatch and maintenance workers.
The Globalink system will also provide "enroute voice operational control capability" for Air Canada rouge, ARINC said in a prepared statement.
Air Canada launched its leisure subsidiary July 1,and is now looking to use the same VHF data link system that it uses for its non-leisure flights with ARINC's system. According to ARINC, over 300 airlines currently use Globalink for their Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) on 15,000 aircraft worldwide.

Capitol Demonstrators Protest Land Board Decision on Logging
Demonstrators protesting plans to increase logging on state land have invaded the Oregon Capitol.
A handful of demonstrators chained themselves together Monday in the offices of State Treasurer Ted Wheeler and Secretary of State Kate Brown. About two dozen others sang songs, chanted and marched through the Capitol.
Wheeler, Brown and Gov. John Kitzhaber make up the State Land Board, which angered environmentalists last year with a plan to increase logging in the Elliott State Forest. The plan is projected to increase the annual timber harvest by 20 million board feet per year and boost school funding by $3 million to $5 million annually.
The timber industry has said the plan will create new jobs, but conservation groups say it would harm fish and wildlife.

Topic: DRYing up my controller's exception catching
I started putting in some rescue clauses to catch exceptions, and I am finding myself repeating some of the code. Here's an example with the edit action:
def edit
@course = Course.find(params[:id])
if is_instructor && @course.owner_id != logged_in_user.id
respond_to do |format|
flash[:error] = 'You are not the owner of that course, cannot edit'
format.html { redirect_to courses_path }
if is_admin
@users = User.load_user_hash
@institutes = Institute.load_institutes_hash
elsif is_instructor
institute_id = logged_in_user.institute_id
@campuses = Campus.load_campuses_hash
@areasofstudy = AreaOfStudy.load_areasofstudy_hash
respond_to do |format|
rescue ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound:
flash[:error] = 'Could not find a course by that id'
redirect_to courses_path
rescue Exception:
flash[:error] = 'An error occured trying to display all the course information, please try again'
redirect_to courses_path
So I am wondering how I would best separate that into its own method. I know I could for instance do:
def check_record(not_found_msg, exception_msg, not_found_path, exception_path)
rescue ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound:
flash[:error] = not_found_msg
redirect_to not_found_path
rescue Exception
redirect_to exception_path
And that would be usable across the board. However, I am wondering if there is a better way that I am not familiar with. I'm not sure if that may conflict with if statements or not. As well as how should I go about integrating it with the begin statement and such that I currently use. Thanks for your input.

Posted on 12/04/2012 11:34:53 AM PST by neverdem
On CNN contributor Roland Martins podcast posted to his website Monday, Jason Whitlock, the columnist who inspired Bob Costas commentary on gun control during halftime of Sundays Dallas Cowboys-Philadelphia Eagles game on NBC, revealed his peculiar take on the National Rifle Association (NRA).
Whitlock spoke out against the NFLs handling of the aftermath of Jovan Belchers suicide and gun issues in his Sunday FoxSports.com column. During Martins podcast, he likened the NRA to the Ku Klux Klan and tied the group to the dangerous street culture that unfortunately dominates "so many black youths."
Sports gets so much attention, and people tune out the real world, that I try to take advantage of the opportunity to talk about the real world when sports lends itself to that and try to open peoples eyes, Whitlock said.
You know, I did not go as far as Id like to go because my thoughts on the NRA and Americas gun culture — I believe the NRA is the new KKK. And that the arming of so many black youths, uh, and loading up our community with drugs, and then just having an open shooting gallery, is the work of people who obviously dont have our best interests [at heart].
Whitlock disagreed with the idea that gun ownership enhances liberty, explaining how — in his view — it damages society.
I think its obvious if youve traveled abroad, and traveled to countries where they have legitimate gun laws, that we dont have to have what we have in America, where people somehow think a gun enhances their liberty, and that people somehow think a gun makes them safer, he continued.
It just doesnt..."
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
Jason "The Lardass" Whitlock is the new Jabba the Hutt.
Looks like a new media push is on. I wonder will it stay confined to sports, or will it use all media outlets?
The New KKK would be your Democrat Party's Holy Grail, Planned Parenthood!
Planned Parenthood has killed more BLACKS since Obama took office than the KKK killed in its history.
They're certainly smarter than the KKK, if this was all part of the plan. At least someone's admitting black people are killing the black people, even though it's secretly white people controlling the black people killing the black people. Run tell Jackson and Sharpton.
By the way, why did black youths fall for this nefarious plot?
And yet, the anti's are the ones trying to infringe on Civil Rights, not the NRA. I'd say it's Brady and her crew that are more like the KKK than anything.
Hands can be used to strangle. Cut them off.
Sue the sumb*tch.
Those aren't the work of the NRA, they are the self-inflicted wounds of what passes for black pop culture.
The NRA is about safeguarding everyone's Right, not arming gangstas, selling drugs, or turning streets into shooting galleries.
Jason, just stick to what you know, whatever that is.
"people somehow think a gun makes them safer"
"Somehow"? It wouldn't have anything to do with that projectile that pops out and injures or kills people stronger than you, would it? Jokes on them, haha, because me and Jason know bullets always boomerang back at you. Tricky suckers!
And Jason Fatlock is the new Stepin Fetchit
No such thing as a bad boy...just bad guns.
Yeah tell that to all people who fight off home invasions only because they possess a firearm. Stupid libz
If those who understand--really understand--The Right To Keep & Bear Arms were to threaten to start a boycott of Sunday Night Football sponsors, it might stop this sort of thing--at least for the moment.
William Flax
Gotta keep a little spotlight on yourself in the spirit of President Mom Jeans?
Well, the NRA was "All In" for the election. Wonder if they have the energy to fight what will be a mountain of slander coming back at them after the loss.
But The Republicans freed the slaves.
The KKK was/is the terrorist wing of the Democrat Party.
If a black man had a gun he could defend himself against
the Terrorist wing of the Democrat Party : the KKK
It was the Democrat KKK who kept blacks from owning guns.
Sorry; that is the History of the United States of America.
So if blacks forfeit their rights they'll be protected from themselves.
So is he OK with laws that just prohibit blacks from owning guns? You know, like the Democrats passed at the behest of the Klan.
This idiot needs a dose of hard, cold truth right in the face. The NRA isn't "arming" black kids and "loading them up" with drugs. (Poor, passive, victimized things! They never do anything themselves; it's always someone doing it TO them). These young thugs are making their own choices based on lack of family life, no fathers around to teach them how to be men, and no moral upbringing.
BTW, this is the guy Bernie Goldberg called an excellent columnist.
Thomas Jefferson wrote some unkind words about blacks, and then this idiot Whitless tries to prove him right.
It appears to me that Jovan Belcher, after a night of drinking and whoring, had decided to kill the mother of his child when he entered her residence. He could have accomplished this goal with his hands, a fireplace poker, a knife, a car, scissors, a pillow, or whatever means he chose, including drowning her in the bathtub.
If the woman Jovan decided to kill had kept a gun nearby and had known how to use it properly, she could have saved her own life.
Just another useful idiot/useless waste of oxygen.
The interesting thing is that these comments (and those of Costas) make obvious the liberal lie that "nobody wants to take away your guns—we just want a few reasonable gun laws". The "few reasonable gun laws" line doesn't square with saying "if he didn't have a gun" or insisting that gun ownership is against the interests of African-Americans.
He may have a point here.
I lived a good portion of the 'history' he has NEVER been taught.
True the Klan etal were R's for the most part but I distinctly remember in the 50's/60's that those nasty Sheriffs and Governors, such as Orville Faubus, Bull Connor, Lester Maddox and countless hundreds of card carrying REPUBLICAN officials mounted attacks on blacks for being black and not much more, barred them from schools and colleges and that great DEMOCRAT President Dwight D. Eisenhower dispatched troops to ensure Federal Law was carried out, thus 'starting' the Civil Rights movement.
(THIS shouldn't be necessary) S/S/S Sarc
Jim Crow laws were all passed by Democrat majorities.
Most KKK members were / are Democrats.
Jim Byrd, (WV-D) was a long-standing member of the KKK.
The "dangerous street culture" is pimped to the "community" by hustlers named Russell Simmons and other producers and publishers of so-called "gangsta" rap where the performers are openly encouraged to pad out their resume with bogus claims of how many times "they got shot", how many "bitches" pull money for them, how much weed they smoke/sell, etc.
Pimps learn that the first thing they have to do is break the whore's spirit by making her forget that slavery ever ended.
Democrats love "the community" in despair and dependent on a weekly handout without a daddy in the home.
And this nutjob has the balls to say the NRA is doing the work of the KKK (which was founded by Democrats to wage a second civil war in the South during Reconstruction and beyond).
If Andrea Yates didn't have access to a bathtub, her kids would still be alive/s
If a few Muslims armed with box cutters weren't allowed on four jets, three thousand people would still be alive today.

What exactly are you accusing us, The NRA, of doing? Arming black youths and loading up communities with drugs? What kind of a clueless moron are you, Jason?
More useless to America than a parasitic professional jock is a sports writer dreaming up worthless drivel. A black sports writer is especially useless as a propagandist introducing racial overtones to flavor his otherwise bland specious blather.
It's the KKK who is responsible for most of the bad gun laws that were enacted in the 1920's. Idiot.
I am fairly sure I have traveled, lived and worked abroad and for much longer and in far more countries than Jason Whitlock would ever do if he lived to be a hundred years old, and I can safely say that this statement of his, is the most idiotic statement I have heard for a very long time. It has nothing to do with reality, and is typical of ignorant(of foreign cultures/countries) African Americans who (falsely) believe that living in some other country would somehow, magically solve all their (mostly self inflicted problems), and don't realize how lucky they are to be living in America, and enjoying the freedoms all Americans do.
Rather than face the degeneration of his own racial culture he blames the tools they use to kill each other...and us.
Typical...and easy.
and blacks themselves as usual have no responsibility for themselves..simply bouncing through life like the ball in a pinball machine soaring or collapsing at the whim of the omnipresent white man
and O'Reilly and Goldberg called this guy a respected columnist at this local paper...boy who did background for those two night before last?
I'd have their head
Seems like Whitlock is proving that not all the brain damage in this country is confined to NFL & NHL activities.
When the chaos starts, he may be an early target.
I'd have their head
LOL! Either FNC has been infiltrated or they went out of their way to hire a bunch of saps.
Thanks for the ping!
Whitlock's just doing the job the KKK started. Gun control wasn't ever about whites, but blacks. It was a focused attempt, originating in the racist post-Civil War South, to disarm blacks.
Gun control is racist. As is our welfare system which destroyed the black family and replaced daddies with Uncle Sugar.

Forward, dhimmis. via Refugee Resettlement Watch.
There are a couple of messages in this story to ponder.
First, no doubt we feel sympathy for Muslim women abused by the men in their lives. But, is it our duty to save each and every one whose husband, brother or father thinks 'his' woman has not behaved properly according to their 'faith?'
And, take note that we are importing this behavioral mindset to the US every day through myriad legal immigration programs, including refugee resettlement, when we admit immigrants from Muslim countries? Who will save the women when the US is paralyzed by pressure from multiculturalists urging us to respect diversity. Believe it or not, we have occasionally heard 'cultural relativism' arguments that go like this—-who are we to say female genital mutilation is an evil practice?
Now, hat tip David, here is the story from Al Arabiya entitled, 'Saudi women get U.S. 'victim visas' following family disputes':
Five Saudi women living in the United States replaced their student visas with "victim visas" following disputes with male members of their families.
The women, whose change of status renders them ineligible for financial support from Saudi Cultural Bureau in Washington DC, were accompanying their families to the United States and went to court after they got into fights with their husbands or brothers, the Saudi edition of al-Hayat newspaper quoted a source from the bureau as saying.
One of those women, the source explained, is a student currently living with her children in an orphanage because of a dispute with her husband.
After the American court with which she filed a complaint ruled in her favor, she was not able to go back to her husband and since there were no guarantees of her safety if she returns to Saudi Arabia, she preferred to stay in the United States. She is now financially supported by the American government.
The American government is broke and gets all its money by plundering American citizens so you are paying for this Islamic program.
The source noted that the financial assistance granted to those girls, who are usually students themselves, varies from one case to another. It could come in the form of a job, an academic scholarship, or food and shelter as in the case of the orphanage.
Let's revisit RRW's question, "is it our duty to save each and every one whose husband, brother or father thinks 'his' woman has not behaved properly according to their 'faith?'"
No. Only those who adhere to sharia law.

Los Alamos National Laboratory
Probing Fukushima with cosmic rays should speed cleanup

Los Alamos to partner with Toshiba to remotely and safely peer inside nuclear reactors
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., June 18, 2014—Los Alamos National Laboratory today announced an impending partnership with Toshiba Corporation to use a Los Alamos technique called muon tomography to safely peer inside the cores of the Fukushima Daiichi reactors and create high-resolution images of the damaged nuclear material inside without ever breaching the cores themselves. The initiative could reduce the time required to clean up the disabled complex by at least a decade and greatly reduce radiation exposure to personnel working at the plant.
"Our recent technical work has clearly shown that the muon scattering technique pioneered at Los Alamos provides a superior method for obtaining high-resolution images of nuclear materials inside structures, and this will allow plant operators to establish the condition of reactor-core material without the need to actually get inside," said Duncan McBranch, Los Alamos's Chief Technology Officer. "One of the most challenging, time-consuming and potentially dangerous tasks in cleaning up after a reactor accident is determining the condition and location of the core material, especially when the material itself may have melted and flowed to a different part of the building. Invasive techniques such as video endoscopy or introduction of robots run the risk of releasing radiation. Furthermore, those techniques at best offer a partial view of material location. Muon tomography will enable plant operators to see the location of the nuclear material inside, determine its condition, and provide crucial insight that can inform the design of a safer and faster cleanup. We are hopeful that our partnership with Toshiba will assist the Tokyo Electric Power Company and the Japanese government in their efforts to accelerate cleanup operations in the safest way possible."
Muon radiography (also called cosmic-ray radiography) uses secondary particles generated when cosmic rays collide with upper regions of Earth's atmosphere to create images of the objects that the particles, called muons, penetrate. The process is analogous to an X-ray image, except muons are produced naturally and do not damage the materials they contact. Muon radiography has been used before in imaginative applications such as mapping the interior of the Great Pyramid at Giza, but Los Alamos's muon tomography technique represents a vast improvement over earlier technology.
In developing muon tomography, Los Alamos researchers found that by placing a pair of muon detectors in front of and behind an object, and measuring the degree of scatter the muons underwent as they interacted with the materials they penetrated, they could gather detailed images. The method works particularly well with highly interfering materials (so-called "high Z" materials) such as uranium. Because the muon scattering angle increases with atomic number, core materials within a reactor show up more clearly than the surrounding containment building, plumbing and other objects. Consequently, the Los Alamos muon tomography method shows tremendous promise for pinpointing the exact location of materials within the Fukushima reactor buildings.
"Los Alamos researchers began working on an improved method for muon radiography within weeks of the 2011 earthquake and tsunami that damaged the Fukushima reactor complex," said Christopher Morris, chief scientist and leader of the Los Alamos Muon Tomography Team. "Within 18 months we had refined our technique and published a paper showing that the Los Alamos method was superior to traditional muon radiography techniques for remotely locating and identifying nuclear materials, and that it could be employed for field use."
As part of the partnership, Los Alamos will assist Toshiba in developing a Muon Tracker for use at the Fukushima plant.
Los Alamos's muon tomography technology also has the potential to be deployed in locations around the world to help detect smuggled nuclear materials. In fact, Los Alamos previously granted an exclusive license to Decision Sciences International Corporation for broad commercialization of the Los Alamos technology. The company has successfully deployed portal monitors that use muon tomography at a major seaport for cargo-container scanning as well as at other locations under their licensing agreement.
Muon tomography and development of its application at Fukushima was made possible in part through Los Alamos' Laboratory-Directed Research and Development Program (LDRD), which uses a small percentage of the Laboratory's overall budget to invest in new or cutting-edge research. The U.S. Department of Energy supported contacts of the Los Alamos team with other research groups, including several Japanese institutions and the University of Texas.
Caption for image below: Christopher Morris, leader of Los Alamos National Laboratory's Muon Tomography Project, watches an image of two dense hemispheres of lead develop on a computer screen after just over a minute of exposure to muons -- naturally occurring particles generated with cosmic rays interact with Earth's atmosphere. Morris and colleagues have developed a method to use muons to peer inside closed containers, even very dense ones, to detect smuggled nuclear materials or to peer inside damaged nuclear reactor cores, like those at the Fukushima Daiichi complex in Japan.

No Items in Shopping Cart
By the 1950s, railroads were shopping for more powerful units to replace earlier diesels, and a horsepower race between EMD, ALCO and General Electric began in earnest. GE took a bold step forward, unveiling its brutish new Universal series in 1959. Production began with a 2500 horsepower, four-axle unit, known as the U25B in 1960 -- and railfans quickly nicknamed them U-boats. The success of the new series soon pushed GE into the number two spot in locomotive sales.
In 1966, a 2800 horsepower prime mover was added to create the U28B. Only 148 units were built that year. Late production units (which are the prototypes for these models) had a shorter nose and some differences in the radiator intakes, which were carried over into early U30B production. Late in 1966, GE introduced a 3000 horsepower prime mover in the U30B. Many features were carried over into the new body however later production units had revised air intakes. Total production ended at 296 units in 1975.

In addition to building an greater appreciation for boxing, I'm also trying to build a small library of dvd's to go along. So I found this site (link below) which has a promotion going on. If you buy one fighter's career set, you can get a free item from either the "Superbouts" section or the "Trilogies" section.
My questions:
1) Anyone have any experience with this site? Is it legit in terms of good dvd quality?
2) Which one would you choose in terms of a Career Set?
3) What additional dvd (from the 2 categories listed) would you get?
I don't watch alot of current heavyweight fights, mostly middle-light heavyweight of present day. But I do watch alot of "older" heavyweight stuff on classic - Ali, Tyson, Foreman, Holmes, etc, etc - when it comes on. I'm still really just getting into the sport, so alot of the finer points go over my head sometimes. Either way, thanks for the help.

The Los Angeles Angels shut down 1B C.J. Cron for the rest of 2012
22-year old righty swinging 1B C.J. Cron has been shut down for the rest of the season as he needs surgery to repair his labrum in his right shoulder. He injured it in high school and played his first two years as a pro with a bum shoulder. That makes the numbers he put up all the more impressive. Cron played in 129 games in A-ball this year for the Angels and he was 154 of 525 (.293 avg, .843 OPS) with 73 runs scored, 27 homers, 123 RBIs and 3 stolen bases. Cron has now played in 163 games in his first two years in the minors and he is 198 of 668 (.296 avg, .877 OPS) with 103 runs scored, 40 homers, 164 RBIs and 4 stolen bases. Cron came into this season as the Angels' #5 prospect according to Baseball America. Imagine what he's going to do next year when he's finally healthy.

- For the Cheaty Allioli:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 medium garlic cloves, finely minced or grated on a microplane grater (about 2 teaspoons)
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons water
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- For the Tortilla:
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely sliced (about 3/4 cup)
- 5 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon sherry or white wine vinegar
- 3 cups (about 2 1/2 ounces) Kettle-style salt and vinegar chips
For the Cheaty Allioli: Combine mayonnaise and garlic in a medium bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in extra-virgin olive oil. Whisk in water. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
For the Tortilla: Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add onions and cook, stirring frequently, until softened and just starting to brown. Transfer onions and oil to a large bowl. Add eggs and vinegar and whisk to combine. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper. Fold in potato chips until they are well coated.
Wipe out skillet and add remaining two tablespoons olive oil. Return to medium heat until shimmering. Add egg/potato chip mixture and cook, stirring with a rubber spatula, for 10 seconds. Shake pan to evenly distribute mixture, then even out top with the spatula. Cook, shaking pan occasionally, until tortilla is mostly set but still wet on the top, about 2 minutes.
Place a large metal or glass pot lid over the tortilla. Using kitchen towels to grip the lid and the pan handle, carefully invert the entire tortilla so that it's resting on top of the pan lid. Slide tortilla back into skillet so that the cooked side is now facing up. Use the spatula to tuck down the edges and create an even disk shape. Continue to cook, shaking occasionally, until tortilla is golden brown on second side and barely cooked through, about 2 minutes longer. Slide tortilla out onto cutting board.
Cut into squares or wedges and serve immediately with allioli, or allow to cool and serve at room temperature.
