The Bauer Performance Goalie Chest Protector offers a similar look and feel as the higher end Elite and Elite Pro models.
New features on the 2012 Performance chest protector include square shoulder caps improving mobility and protection. Another new feature is the adjustable arm length giving the goalie a customized fit.
The Performance chest protector is using high quality synthetic leather, durable nylon and mesh materials for excellent breathability on the exterior. Enhanced poly and foams are used throughout the chest protector providing lightweight protection. The Performance chest protector uses a dual shoulder cap setup using molded poly and foam with the inner layer being segmented offering contoured protection on the shoulder. The chest blocks utilize an anatomical design which allows the protection to contour to the body. There is about a 2.5" foam piece that extends for the sides of the chest protector to provide additional rib protection. The ABS protection provides a customizable fit with the chest protector to ensure you are fully protected.
Bauer's using several adjustment features to ensure a snug fit with this chest protector. Elastic strapping around the elbow and forearm secures the plastic elbow caps keeping them in place. In addition to those straps, there is one more leather velcro strap around the wrist with a neoprene-like liner on the inside. Securing the back of the chest protector is an adjustable 1.5" elastic buckle strap to secure the fit. Providing additional adjustment options, Bauer is using a velcro flaps at the top of the chest protector to allow the goalie to adjust how the chest protector rest on the shoulders.
The Bauer Performance chest protector offers very nice protection for goalies looking for lightweight equipment at a considerably lower price.

Comments: The Bauer Performance Chest Protector is a great pad for the beginner to intermediate level players. Getting to the advanced level though, you will begin to feel some shots, especially around the stomach. I really like the velcro compared to the buckle straps you would find on Reebok or Vaughn chest protectors. The velcro gives you a more flexible, custom fit that the buckle straps couldn't do. Another good thing about this chest protector is it rides fairly high on your collarbone, making the need for a throat protector not as high, though I still wear one. Overall, its a great, lightweight pad for an affordable price. If you are just starting out as a goalie or at the intermediate level, I recommend this chest protector.
From: Kyle, CA
Comments: My first set of goalie equipment. Great set of shoulder pads for the price!
From: Joe, CO
Comments: I have used this now for about 10 games , great fit and protection for inline goaltending, and for the price! A little light in the rib areas, but again, for the pricepoint it def doesn't dissapoint. I'm 6.1 and an XL was a good fit. The ability to adjust the arms and stomach protection is also a big plus.
From: Chris, NY
Comments: Great for Girls hockey
From: Mapplewood, MN
Comments: Bought this product to try to save money on a new chest protector that didnt smell since I had my old one for about 8 years. Unfortunately, you get what you pay for in this case. While the chest protector would be good for lower levels of ice hockey and sometimes roller hockey, I have found at higher levels of play, especially on ice, the puck penetrates the chest protector and causes a dull pain. Pros: - good collar bone / neckline protection - Adjustable arms are good for someone whose arms may be shorter/longer than the norm - Velcro-attached stomach protectors provide added lower stomach coverage Cons: - Somewhat inadequate protection in the thorax/chest/stomach area - Size Large is for someone sub 6 foot, which is not exactly clear initially

"I got my size 8 in both silver and gold.They run true to size in my case. I used to have similar sandals in gold that got so worn out I couldnt wear them anymore. They were my favorite because I could wear them with almost all of my wardrobe. I am so happy I found these ones because they are almost identical to my old ones but these are more expensive. I love that they look fancy and feel comfortable at the same time. I think these shoes are a must in any women's wardrobe who likes fashion."

Greek language
Good morning, beloved of God,
Well, a new week begins, a week of fun for my kids to enjoy Vacation Bible School and Soccer camp…and I have planned a fun week of organizing bookshelves and ridding myself of unnecessary books and donating what I don't need. Now I have no problem donating clothes, kitchen items, in fact, every item but books…kind of silly, isn't it? I just consider them my friends. Yet some are not needed and could most certainly bless another home. I need God's help to do this job. To let go and let God, shall we say..
And to prepare a curriculum for my children for next year I need to set it up with books, and if they are in disarray, well, I cannot work very well. Most of you haven't been to my house, but I have 10 bookshelves of books..ahem. And I visit the library every week…I guess you would call me a book lover. Hence, the book fetish..ahem. Of course, out of this love of books, my husband has become a reader WOOHOO!. My children are almost all huge readers..I say that because one is still learning to read. :0) They all love to listen to books. We listen to books. I'm not sure why I'm sharing this..this isn't going to make it easier to separate myself from books. 😉
God has brought many books in my life that I pick up again..not to read necessarily but to remember. I can touch a book and be brought to time, a memory…
🙂 Well, in today's study we are going to look at the next beatitude…Let's first look at mourn in Greek.
Mourn, Mourning:"to mourn for, lament," is used, (a) of mourning in general, Mat 5:4 so this is a general type of mourning. Remember what we talked about yesterday? The humble, those who realize their sinfulness, acknowledging their need for a Savior.
I think that Psalm 32 truly repeats the cry of this "mourning":
3 When I kept silence [before I confessed], my bones wasted away through my groaning all the day long.
4 For day and night Your hand [of displeasure] was heavy upon me; my moisture was turned into the drought of summer. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
5 I acknowledged my sin to You, and my iniquity I did not hide. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the Lord [continually unfolding the past till all is told]—then You [instantly] forgave me the guilt and iniquity of my sin. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
6 For this [forgiveness] let everyone who is godly pray—pray to You in a time when You may be found; surely when the great waters [of trial] overflow, they shall not reach [the spirit in] him.
7 You are a hiding place for me; You, Lord, preserve me from trouble, You surround me with songs and shouts of deliverance. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
Do you see the progression that Jesus is talking about? We humble ourselves, we see our need for Savior and confess. We mourn and God pours out. He is found, He is our hiding place. He is our preserving place. He surrounds us! Or consider the mourning in Psalm 40:
1 I waited patiently and expectantly for the Lord; and He inclined to me and heard my cry.
2 He drew me up out of a horrible pit [a pit of tumult and of destruction], out of the miry clay (froth and slime), and set my feet upon a rock, steadying my steps and establishing my goings.
3 And He has put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many shall see and fear (revere and worship) and put their trust and confident reliance in the Lord.
True comfort can only be found in Him, beloved. Only in Him. As we trust, confidence and reliance in Him, He will then use our story to show others His faithfulness and our story will not be a void, useless waste but a glorious crown. Allow Him to be your comfort.
God bless you today, beloved. May His face shine upon you. Pray on. Pray on.

5 Tips for Finding Design Inspiration
In our own homes, we surround ourselves with elements that warm our hearts and evoke our fondest memories. Almost instinctively, our eyes are drawn to décor whose color, shape, pattern, texture and luminosity create meaning for us and inspire admiration.
The challenge in home decorating is not simply to populate your space with an assortment of objects that only serve a function. It is also about combining elements that hold significance in your life. How do you find inspiration? Here are five simple tips.
1. Build Ideas around a Classic Color Palette
The personality of your dwelling place radiates through its color fusions. To stimulate design ideas for home interiors, go beyond mundane paint selections that clutter your mind, and opt for classic earth tones that suggest a feeling of serenity. It is much easier to incorporate fascinating home décor when the color foundation of a room is subtle.
Even if you opt for walls with a muted palette, such as beige or grey, you can liven up the space with a striking yet sophisticated accent piece, such as Balsam Hill's Lemon Tree Wood painting, with its ebony and golden hues signifying boldness and elegance.
2. Make It Personal
You can blend your own luxurious style with the design of each room by looking through your collection of wardrobe, accessories, and even mementos.
Little odds and ends, such as souvenirs, not only tell the story of your travels but are also charming additions to otherwise lifeless corners of the home.
Perhaps you were inspired by the fabric texture of a favorite coat and would love to replicate its rich feeling in your living space. You can accent your sofa with throw pillows that give you a hint of a similar fabric.
These traces of your personality enhance not only the aesthetics of the room but the sentimental value it holds.
3. Travel through Time
Step outside the dictates of today's trends, and venture into the realm of a classic era. Find pieces from stylish decades, such as the roaring 20s or the groovy 70s. Vintage wall art dating back to the pre-war period add history to a contemporary space. An old vinyl record can also be repurposed as an accent piece in a modern study.
For a more personalized touch to this vintage-inspired look, display old photographs in quaint little corners of your home. Balsam Hill offers a classic family picture frame that gives a timeless quality to these intimate family moments.
4. Be Inspired by Nature
From the color of fallen leaves to the subtle warmth of morning sunshine, elements of nature can stimulate your mind and offer you design ideas that also rejuvenate your home.
Placing potpourri inside your living spaces, for instance, not only brings in the fragrance of the outdoors, but also serves as a rustic decorative piece with the curious amalgam of barks and petals.
You can also illuminate your spaces by allowing the sunlight in on a summer day. In the evening, you can add the luminosity of decorative candles to recreate the brilliance of the stars.
5. Think outside the Box
Gain a new perspective by taking a walk in a stylish district. Some of the best home decorating ideas can be found right in your own neighborhood: from coffee shops to boutiques to book stores. Take note of how tables and chairs are matched uniquely with the décor inside a classic bistro, or how the recessed lighting at your favorite lounge exudes contemporary chic. These little details create an overall look that can reinvigorate your own home.by

VDI 3 - Bad as in 70's badddd !
By leroyk on Apr 12, 2009
Well after two weeks of travel and layoffs I thought I would spend the weekend relaxing. Which for me this seems to be a little time with the Shuttle team and VDI. VDI is a way cool and under promoted virtualization technology that can run Windows, Linux and Solaris guests. Clients can access via Sun Ray thin client, SGD and RDP clients.
VDI 3 is part Sun Ray, MySQL (profile management), Solaris, VirtualBox and Open Storage (think OpenSolaris). By the way it is totally badd. These distinct components are integrated so well beyond anything Sun has done in a long time. All components are installed by one command. The open storage server is a separate install of OpenSolaris by the way. It works flawlessly. Administration is via browser and so easy to use. No instructions needed.
I had not figured out how VirtualBox could be used other than the developer module so tossed around these days. But Virtual Box fits so well in this solution. One might question xVMServer's existence but it fits well running headless servers vs. desktop virtualization.
VDI 3 integrates with your existing enterprise LDAP or Active Directory solution for authentication. No coding needed. Just configure and go.
Best yet, each user can be provisioned multiple desktops for use. Once the user authenticates they can choose which desktop to access. VDI gives you the ability to toss other virtualization technologies to the curb for no doubt a better cost model. VDI 3 will let you use VMWare's VDI solution too. Flexible...

Fabulously Gorgeous!
"I'd been eyeing these beauties since last year (when they were $130) and I couldn't justify spending that much on them. When I saw that the price dropped (significantly) and they only had one more in my size and the color I loved (PINK), I knew I had to jump!Not only are these babies surprisingly comfy for a wedge but the spikes on the back are no joke! They aren't cheap-y little spikes, they're heavy duty and awesome! Luckily I have a slightly narrow foot because they fit perfectly (I wouldn't recommend these if you have a wide foot) and they really are gorgeous! I wish they had the black ones in my size!"

ridiculously comfy
"These shoes are sky high and hot as all get out. I seriously looked at them and had to pull the off the shelf to try on even though I figured 1) way out of my price range and 2) way too high to be anything but uncomfortable. Boy, I couldn't've been more wrong. These are just fabulously comfortable. They fit perfectly and look just as amazing (if not better) than pictured. The pink is very hot pink and really pops."

Great look, not comfy
"I tried these on in the store in an 8 and 8.5 and I couldn't make them work for me. I was immediately struck by the color combo and really wanted to take them home with me but they were narrow and the material was inflexible, not supple at all. It wasn't any better when I went up a half size."

"Fabulously fresh mint color block - very trendy for spring. Found them to be slightly narrow with the pointed toe, but oh so adorable. They're not 100% leather - they are "leather/synthetic upper, balance manmade" so I'm not sure which part is leather and which is synthetic but that could be why they feel a bit stiff."

Comments: Incredible bait for walleye. For me, the smelt color was the best for everyday, when the fishing going bad, I use the white/chartreuse color! With that thing you will catch everything that swing in your lake totally awesome! try them!
Comments:When the going gets tough, go to the Gulp. I use this in my own version of a float and fly and knock 'em dead when the fishing is the toughest. A tiny float, a small jig, and a gulp minnow works very well in the coldest part of winter and the hottest part of summer, when nothing else seems to work. Bonus is that everything will hit this, it's not unusual to catch bass, crappie, and catfish all in the same day. I was even catching good numbers of crappie in the middle of a snowstorm in the Texas Hill Country!

Generations of children have spent the first few weeks of school on a classic nature lesson — the metamorphosis of Monarch caterpillars into butterflies. But this year, teachers are noticing a trend that has worried naturalists for some time.
Monarch butterflies spend the winter in Mexico, then fly to the united states to lay eggs on milkweed. By summer, a generation of caterpillars start to appear in New England. In the past few years, scientists have noticed fewer Monarch butterflies making the trip — and this year, they say the population decline took a drastic turn for the worse. Entomologist Faith Deering of Florence-Massachusetts searches for Monarchs every summer.
"And usually I see dozens and dozens, and I've only seen 3 butterflies (this year)," she said. "The milkweed patches that I check locally that usually have caterpillars on them, having nothing on them."
The World Wildlife Fund reported a 59 percent decline in the Monarch population last spring, so by the time teachers started to look for caterpillars for the beginning of school, the numbers were nearly zero.
Northampton kindergarten teacher Amy Meltzer usually finds caterpillars by cruising the milkweed in her neighborhood, but this year, she came up empty. So she decided to call a commercial insect supplier….who kept putting her on hold to take calls from other teachers
"I think there's a lot of teachers who start the year hatching caterpillars, because it's so dynamic and engaging for kids, and it's so exciting," said Meltzer. "And nobody's been able to find any caterpillars.
A primary reason for the decline, Faith Deering says, is the loss of milkweed — the only food Monarch caterpillars eat. Housing development, pesticide and herbicide use have displaced the plant in the U.S and Mexico. And Deering says climate change has affected the trees where butterflies live in winter. She doesn't expect the species to go extinct, just to stop migrating.
"It would mean eventually that we might not see Monarchs here in the New England," said Deering.
So she hopes teachers incorporate nature conservation in their caterpillar curricula — and encourage students to plant milkweed in their own backyards.

Toronto's Steven Hunt an emerging star at the University of Hawaii
HONOLULU – Last winter in his rookie season with the University of Hawaii men's volleyball team, Toronto's Steven Hunt was probably best remembered for striking a chair in anger after a bad play and injuring his hand which put him on the shelf for a month.
This year, the 6'5" outside hitter has emerged among the most improved players on the team and is described as a triple threat with his passing, serving and hitting skills.
The Warriors equaled their win total from last season bettering their record to six wins and four losses (6-4) with a victory on Monday over Brigham Young University 30-27, 30-26, 30-25. The match was delayed two days due to the Pacific Ocean tsunami warnings.
Hunt, a graduate of Toronto's Donald S. Wilson Secondary School, earned 15 kills, six digs and received 14 serves without error.
"For sure, I'm having more fun," Hunt said of his 2010 season. "Our whole team is having way more fun. We're actually a team this year. Everybody can trust everybody. Whether you're a starter or you come off the bench, you have a role. I know I needed to focus on my role on the team. It's not to be a go-to hitter all of the time. I have to pass good, and help our team make plays."
Hunt is one of six Canadians in NCAA Division 1.
Darryl Shank of London, Ont., and Carey Stewart of St. Mary's, Ont., both play for Indiana University-Purdue, Erik Kuld of Toronto is at Harvard University in Boston and Dominic Dewaele of Hamilton is at Loyola University of Illinois.

Ralph BALSON
Balson was born at Bothenhampton, Dorset, on 13 August 1890. He immigrated to Australia in 1913 and, from 1922, studied under Grace Crowley, Anne Dangar and Henry Gibbons at Julian Ashton's Art School, Sydney. He also attended the sketch club at Dorrit Black's Modern Art Centre, holding his first solo exhibition there in 1932. Between 1934 and 1937, Balson painted at the Crowley–Fizelle school, benefiting from Crowley's interest in André Lhote. In 1939 his work was shown at Exhibition 1 at David Jones Galleries, alongside Crowley, Rah Fizelle, Frank and Margel Hinder, Frank Medworth, and Gerald Lewers. Drawing on Eleonore Lange's art theory, the exhibition showcased abstraction in the Sydney art scene. Non-figurative composition and colour became Balson's major focuses in his landmark series Constructive paintings, first exhibited at Anthony Hordern's Gallery in 1941. In this series, Balson asserted the eternal essence of 'pure' painting, describing Piet Mondrian as his greatest influence.[i] Constructive paintings were shown with Robert Klippel's sculptures at Macquarie Galleries, Sydney, in 1951, and at Twelve Australian artists, New Burlington Galleries, London, in 1953. He continued to develop Constructive paintingsuntil 1956.
In the later 1950s, Balson began the series Non-objective paintings, emphasising gestural brushwork and a sense of the sublime; these works were exhibited at David Jones Galleries in 1957 and at Blaxland Gallery, Sydney, in 1960. That year, Balson travelled to the United States, England and France. He saw American minimalism and hard-edge abstraction, and was inspired by Ellsworth Kelly, Agnes Martin and Ad Reinhardt. Balson was also influenced by European tachist painters, such as Alberto Burri and Antonio Tàpies. He began work on Matter paintings, in which he exploited the physicality of paint poured onto canvas, in Devon, exhibiting 30 paintings from the series at Galerie R. Creuze, Paris, in October 1960. He continued to develop Matter paintings on his return to Australia, and experimented briefly with hard-edge abstraction in 1963. Balson made plans to return to the United States during 1964, but died later that year, in Sydney, on 27 August.

(Fourty to fourty-five percent of babies at Bridgeport Hospital are born by cesarean, since many mothers are referred here for our high-risk pregnancy services.) A cesarean section, or C-section, as it is often called, is a surgical procedure. Anesthesia is provided (usually an epidural or spinal anesthesia — discuss your wishes with your anesthesiologist). Then a skin incision is made — usually across the lower part of the mother's abdomen — followed by a matching incision in the uterus. The bag of waters is broken, and the baby is lifted out of the womb. The umbilical cord connecting the baby to the placenta is clamped and cut. Then the placenta is removed and the incisions are stitched, or sutured. (The skin incision is usually closed with absorbable sutures, which do not need to be removed.) The procedure usually takes about ten minutes from start to delivery, with another 30-40 minutes for suturing. Then you will go to the recovery room. You can still breastfeed your baby after a C-section. In fact, you may begin nursing (or pumping your milk, if your baby is not immediately able to nurse) as soon as you feel up to it. Who Might Need a C-Section? Situations where a C-Section might be required include: A baby that is too large to fit through the mother's pelvis Labor that is not progressing after a prolonged time Fetal malpresentation (The baby is in breech position, or even sideways, and can't be manipulated to lie head-down.) Fetal distress Maternal medical conditions, including active herpes, diabetes, severe high blood pressure (Note that these are not always reasons for a C-Section!) Placenta previa (The placenta partly or completely covers the cervix, which would lead to excessive bleeding during labor and delivery.) Prolapsed cord (The umbilical cord enters the birth canal before the baby does, which might mean a loss of the blood supply to the baby during birth.) Repeat cesarean (If you think you are heading for a repeat C-section, ask your doctor if Vaginal Birth After Cesarean [VBAC] is possible for you.) The Birthplace at Bridgeport Hospital offers a refresher class to show you what to expect when you have a trial of labor after at least one cesarean. To sign up, call 203-384-3510.

Cowboys swat Yellowjackets, 56-10
BROWNWOOD, Texas - Hardin-Simmons scored 42 unanswered points en route to a 56-10 win over Howard Payne in American Southwest Conference football action on Saturday afternoon at Gordon Wood Stadium in Brownwood.
Howard Payne used a ball control offense and a couple of miscues on HSU's special team's units in the first half to control the ball for 24:03 in the first half, but HSU still led at halftime 14-7.
In the second half, the Cowboys opened up the passing attack and thwarted any upset attempt by the Yellowjackets.
The Yellowjackets took the opening kickoff and drove it methodically to their own 48 when HSU forced a punt, but HPU executed a perfect fake for a 24-yard gain and continued the drive all the way to the Cowboy three yard line when Jonathan Petty recovered a fumble to stall the drive that went 13-plays and 60 yards and took 7:58 off the clock.
HSU then went three and out and HPU again drove the field and this time scored on a Zach Dove 7-yard run with 13:53 to play in the half. The drive was extended when the Cowboys' roughed the punter on a block attempt.
The Cowboys then kicked it up a notch in rhythm and went 71 yards in seven plays as Logan Turner hit Trei Lewis for an 8-yard touchdown pass. HPU then went on another time consuming drive that went 11 plays and took 5:09 off the clock, but the Cowboys forced a punt.
On the first play of the next possession Turner found Jimmie Simpson over the middle he then made a move turned on the accelerator and went 87 yards to the end zone to make 14-7 with 5:57 to play in the half.
The Cowboys took the ball first in the third quarter and went 61 yards in five plays. Tevin Mitchell capped the drive with a 6-yard touchdown run and it was setup by a 45-yard catch and run by Corey Jones.
HSU forced a quick punt and then went 71 yards in 11 plays as Mitchell capped the drive with a 1-yard run. HSU forced another punt, but Simpson fumbled the punt back to HPU and the Jackets moved it to the HSU 4-yard line, but Undra Hendrix forced a fumble and James Place recovered it.
On the first play of the fourth quarter Turner hit Simpson on a 48-yard touchdown pass to make it 35-7. HSU forced a punt on the next HPU drive and HSU went 65 yards in 12 plays. Devin Carver eight straight plays in the drive and Turner capped it with a 10-yard pass touchdown to Colton Brewer.
After HPU added a 30-yard field goal, Josh Christian hit Garret Avalos over the middle and he outraced the defense 71 yards to the end zone to make the score 49-10.
Jay Wise capped the scoring for the Cowboys as he intercepted a pass and went 79 yards up the sideline for a touchdown. It was his 10th career interception which moved him to a tie for fourth all-time at HSU.
The Cowboys ended the day with 571 yards of total offense on just 58 plays (9.8 yards per play) and all but nine of those yards came in the final three quarters of play.
Turner completed 23-of-32 passes for 393 yards and four touchdowns and Christian completed his only pass for a 71-yard touchdown, the first of his career. Simpson caught five passes for 170 yards.
Chad Laughlin led the Cowboy defense with a career-high 15 tackles. HSU also forced four turnovers in the game. Jonathan Petty recorded a sack, an interception and recovered a fumble in the game for HSU.
Thomas Head completed 12-of-21 passes for 180 yards to pace HPU. Josh Eppler had 11 tackles.
HSU has won three straight and is 3-2 on the year and 2-0 in ASC action. HPU fell to 0-5 overall and 0-2 in conference and saw its losing streak reach 12 games. The Cowboys play East Texas Baptist at 1:30 on Saturday as part of homecoming festivities.

*Synthetic clothing dries quickly and is the best choice for outdoor pursuits. Please do not wear cotton clothing. When wet, cotton rapidly robs the heat from your body and takes a long time to dry. We also recommend you dress in multiple layers, allowing you more flexibility to comfortably respond to the weather conditions and your level of exertion.
Please call ahead if you plan to use your own equipment as it must pass inspection by L.L.Bean staff before use. If it's deemed unsuitable, we will provide you with the necessary equipment.

I'm looking forward to watching this and 'The Woman in Black',I haven't been inspired to visit the cinema for years and all of a sudden two reasons come along at the same time!
Looks a promising supernatural chiller featuring Rebecca Hall (very good in The Town).
I'm looking forward to watching this and 'The Woman in Black',I haven't been inspired to visit the cinema for years and all of a sudden two reasons come along at the same time!
Great cast, looks good. Rebecca Hall is always brilliant in everything she does. I agree with the journalist in The Guardian who said the writer of One Day. clearly had her in mind when writing the part of Emma - but instead Hollywood insisted we got Anne Hathaway. And down the proverbial plughole it's gone....
Released on 11 November. The trailer looks good and it's written by Stephen Volk, who wrote Ghostwatch on the BBC in the 90s, so it could be interesting.
Watched it last night. Good work from Staunton, Hall and West but having seen other ghost flicks I guessed the twist. Nice start and ending but goes a bit in the middle.
Yes,I enjoyed it,a decent british period ghost story with a british cast set in britain starring Rebecca Hall-it couldn't fail in my eyes!
Saw it last night and enjoyed it.A good old fashioned ghost story without the gallons of gore or "found footage" which seems to be the only avenue Hollywood wants to explore ghost story-wise.
Very effective chiller - more "interesting" that terrifying, I found, but there were at least two good jolts.
There was some unnecessary nudity/naughty business, IMHO. Maybe, I'm just getting old. Rebbecca West is absolutely gorgeous in this - luminous. I like her sceptic (ish) ghost huntress, a character that could form the basis of a series.
Much taken with the weird handy-man figure played by Joseph Mawle - last saw him in Red Riding - could be destined for great things.
Great start and held promise, but as the plot was expounded upon, it started to drift. When you start to look at your watch several times, with not much going on, you know it has lost your attention.

Gospel Reading
Document Actions
9th Tuesday after Pentecost
The Gospel according to Matthew 18:18-22;19:1-2; 13-15
The Lord said to his disciples, "Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
Then Peter came up and said to him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven."
Now when Jesus had finished these sayings, he went away from Galilee and entered the region of Judea beyond the Jordan; and large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples rebuked the people; but Jesus said, "Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven." And he laid his hands on them and went away.

During Colorado's fire season, which is typically May through September, BLM engines and crews are staffed five to seven days a week. Crews are staffed in staggered shifts to provide full-time coverage. In addition to the agencies' regular initial attack forces, BLM Colorado also hosts a 20-person interagency hotshot crew based in Craig, which is available nationally. Other resources include a Type-3 helicopter in Rifle and a seven-person Unaweep Wildland Fire Module in Grand Junction.
In 2014, the BLM completed about 8,307 acres of fuels reduction projects in the state. Colorado focuses its fuels reduction efforts on areas near communities known as the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI).
Between fire seasons, BLM Colorado devotes staff and resources to rehabilitating burned landscapes, reseeding vegetation, protecting watershed quality and preventing the spread of noxious weeds following severe wildfires.
Throughout the year, the BLM also helps Colorado counties complete wildfire protection plans by offering technical expertise and assistance agreements. The BLM and its cooperators have completed several hundred community-based, interagency educational workshops to support community wildfire preparedness, planning, and hazard mitigation.
Fire units in the state include:
• Northwest Colorado Fire Unit – Craig • Upper Colorado River Interagency Fire Unit – Grand Junction • Southwest District Fire Unit – Montrose • Front Range District Fire Unit – Canon City
Fire management in Colorado is an interagency partnership among federal, state and local entities across the nation.

Beautiful shoe with a slightly awkward fit
"The shoes look great with jeans or a skirt. The color is as shown and the leather helps the shoe to give a little which helps with comfort. My one qualm would be that the shoe arch doesn't quite sit right with my feet and it's a hair narrow. I do have wide feet though so this may not be a problem for everyone. I got tons of compliments on the shoes so I'll definitely keep them."

Great shoe
"This shoe is true to size and a great color. It is a little uncomfortable around the opening where it hits my ankle, but I think that's just a matter of breaking them in. Rounded toe is very comfortable."

Josh Howie: Gran Slam
Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2010
Gran Slam is based on the time that Josh lived with his mother's mother who is 84 years old. He did this until recently for a four year period with his wife, who was pregnant for part of the time. Being cash-strapped, and wanting to save up money for their wedding, a deposit for their flat and with an endless supply of liquorice allsorts, Josh thought it was the perfect arrangement…. It wasn't!
He was under the impression that he was the perfect grandchild and in his Grandma's eyes could do no wrong and she would appreciate his company.
This idyllic viewpoint of their relationship was blown apart when, after a few weeks of moving in, his Grandma told his wife: 'You know, Joshua really reminds me of my brother.', then she sadly shook her head. 'I never liked my brother.'

Geoff F - 23/07/2010
I saw a preview of this last week, along with a mere dozen or so other people. Happily, this did not distract, partly because the audience were determined to have a good time, partly because the warm-up had done what it says on the tin, and partly because Josh was very good. The show clearly needs more work and, in particular, preparation: Josh came on stage with a bundle of alarmingly closely-typed sheets, to which he did have to refer on occasion, but perhaps more important was that on occasion he dropped his voice at the punchline with the result that it was either lost or almost lost. I am sure he will overcome this with time. The subject matter is unusual, but there is some comedy gold here.

During the month of November, selected animals in our shelter, the Aberdeen Animal Shelter, are free! As we are a no-kill shelter, animals stay in our shelter until they become adopted. This has led to our current situation where we have become very overcrowded and need to move some of these babies into loving homes.
The normal procedure of filling out the adoption contract applies, but the adoption fee will be waived during the month of November.
As always, our animals' vaccinations are up to date and they are spayed/neutered before they leave our shelter.
Please visit our Facebook page where you can view the animals that will be free during the month of November.
The shelter is also in need of more community involvement. We very much appreciate all the donations of aluminum cans, animal food, newspapers and yard sale goods, but more hands-on help is needed. The shelter is currently being run by a few dedicated volunteers. We need more help from our local community to keep our shelter running smoothly and our animals healthy and happy. We need help to walk, bathe, play, train, clean and with special events like monthly yard sales, bake sales, spaying/neutering days, etc. We do allow children to volunteer, with some restrictions. Ages 12 and under need to be accompanied by a participating adult at all times, ages 13-15 are allowed alone but only allowed for 2-3 hours at a time. There are no restrictions for ages 16 and up.
Our Animal Control Officer, Larry Jackson, has worked hard to keep the loose animal population in Aberdeen down, keep our shelter clean and our animals healthy. But he can't do it alone, so please help him and the other volunteers make our shelter a complete success. Donate your time and help an animal in need!
For more information, please contact us by phone at 369-2188 or by email firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Aberdeen Animal Shelter is located at 201 Roy Pounders Drive in Aberdeen.

|In response to Re: Where's the problem?
: My problem is:
: I have between 35&40 psi. water pressure to my house from the meter. The meter has the same pressure from the service line across the street.
: My neighbors on either side have 118psi to their houses and have their pressures regulated back to 60-80 psi.
: There are two mains on the opposite side of the street from my house. A 16" low pressure line and a 12 high pressure line.
: Yesterday, the water dept. determined that I was connected to the 16" low pressure line so they tapped my service into the 12" high pressure.
: The pressure at my house is still 40psi. However, they did increase the gpm flow from 13gpm to 20gpm at the service side of the meter.
: My question is: Why is my water pressure still so low and other houses around me have hose bursting pressure? Could there be a kink in the service line below the street before the line reaches my water meter?

Cribs n junk
June 05 2009 10:55AM
Yesterday we were messaged by a buddy who said "Sheldon Souray is selling his house in Edmonton!" Like any good singer/songwriter we immediately shot back "says who? You? Pfft." But upon further investigation it turns out that it was heard second hand from someone who heard it on JAG with Gregor and Brownlee.
This is very troubling news. Let's discuss this rumor with the wild speculation and conjecture that befits bored hockey fans shall we?
Souray selling his house in Edmonton
Emotional Wanye: Uh WHAT?
Logical Wanye: Easy E.W, this could be like the time you had to make that emergency call to the STD Clinic. This too could be a phantom menace.
Emotional Wanye: But what if it isn't? What if he is moving? What are we going to DO?
*starts hyperventilating*
Logical Wanye: To be fair E.W you didn't even hear what was said. There could be a million reasons why Souray would sell his house. Perhaps he is buying a solid gold house. This is a standard move for a hojillionaire Sex God at this stage of his career. Perhaps his existing house doesn't have a big enough floor safe. Perhaps the grotto out back has a fungus of some sort and he is looking to unload it before it becomes evident and the value of the house falls.
Emotional Wanye: Wait a minute, you aren't logical Wanye….
(reaches over and peels off Logical Wanye's face, which turns out to be a mask and reveals a clone of Emotional Wanye crying hysterically.)
Emotional Wanye Clone: There is no time or place for logic in this scenario fool! Didn't you hear that Big Sexy is moving? Didn't Brownlee say that he had asked for a trade at the end of the season? Brownlee is never wrong! He always drops hints left and right and it always happens! DON'T YOU SEE WHAT IS GOING ON?
(Emotional Wanye and his clone stare unblinking at one another for a few moments in frozen terror. In the background a much kissed Souray poster falls off the wall and flutters to the ground.)
Sean Avery's Bentley on Cribs wasn't his
While we are on the topic of NHL player's cribs we have heard a little tidbit of interest regarding one Sean Avery. It seems that when Avery had his LA house on MTV Cribs he showed a Bentley he claimed as his own. The thing of it is - it wasn't his car at all. Pretending to own a Bentley? Is this how you were raised Sean Avery? For shame.
In the absence of being able to find YouTube footage of Sean Avery on Cribs we have included what did come up on YouTube when we searched "Avery&Cribs" in the video above. That clip tells basically the same story and illustrates the point we are trying to make which is this:
This is the second time that Cribs has disappointed us severely with false claims of ownership. The first time was when Ja Rule had probably one of the best Cribs segments ever.
Crazy Ja Rule Cribs segment
Look at that episode! Jay Z arriving by motor yacht! Vin Diesel wearing a hilarious tank top/track suit combination! A guy in the pantry named Cookie! Problem was – it wasn't his crib. It was rented and Ja Rule was later sued for destroying the house:
The 8,000 square foot home was rented in May of 2001 for the Memorial Day weekend and Ja Rule allegedly threw a lavish party that left holes in (the) walls, broken doors, destroyed furniture, cracked tile in her driveway and numerous syringes and condom wrappers all over. During that weekend MTV filmed the entire home for an episode of MTV Cribs profiling the home as Ja Rule's "Miami" residence. Under the alleged rental agreement the residence was to be used for four days with a maximum of eight people staying on the premise. Instead more than 600 people arrived by bus, boat and other means of transportation the lawsuit says.
The point in all of this - and trust us there is a point - is that Sheldon Souray's crib is all of a sudden of the utmost importance to us. He isn't some douchebag that will be soon forgotten like Ja Rule or Sean Avery. He is an important piece of the puzzle going forward round these parts and let's hope the only reason his house is for sale is because he is looking to upgrade his joint.
'Cause if he does get dealt.....
If Souray were to leave, my new slogan for the 09-10 Oilers wouldn't work anymore... "Come to our Place ladies, Big Sexy brought the Oil"
I saw Souray lots this year, walking home from work and SS at the gas station filling up his tank before driving to the Coliseum. Never got excited.
Saw Brownlee at a hardware store, a thinner Jack Nicholson in the flesh. Star power, he has it! GO Nation!
Any more links or photos of your mansion wanye? that looks like a real dream house........ ;)

That would be even better if they all met at Souray's house before each game, and he drove them to Rexall in a big tour bus. Wait, maybe he's selling his house to live on the tour bus!
mobil oil?
A Big Sexy Tour bus! Imagine the possibilities.. It would only be rivaled by the bus of a certain family Partridge.

Yeah!! And if they don't show up ready to play they have to ride home on a tricycle!
Yeah... i can't wait to see Nilsson riding that little trike!! That'll teach him to waste all that skill just by being slothful.

Haha, I knew I see that pic before, Wanye manor is actually a stage set for a Dutch comedy show in Amsterdam.
This is what Wanye's house really looks like inside though:
June 05 2009, 03:28PM
...at least Ja has a sweeeet T.V. in "his" bedroom... then again, who watches T.V. when there are condoms and syringes flying around the room? Holla!
If Souray is going anywhere, shouldn't it be LA since that is where his kids are and that is his big reason for wanting out...supposedly.
I like listening to Ja Rule try to explain why he has a feminine looking bathroom, when the entire house looks like it was decorated by my grandmother.

Doesn't Souray's Ex and his daughter also live in California? You'd think he'd want to spend time with his kid in the off season..
Hoodlum wrote:
I saw Souray at the Lakers game last night, could be California bound
His wife and kids live in California and many of the Oilers do their off season training in SoCal, and besides that how many players spend their time lazing around all summer when most have the means and werewithawl to travel or do whatever they want.
If I'm Sheldon Souray and my options are hang out in Edmonton and watch the Capitals play at Telus field or hop a jet and go watch Kobe and the Lakers in the NBA Finals, I know where I would be.

@ Wanye Gretz: A lot of stars live out on that island according to Mr. Rule... He, fortunately, is not one of them.
I'm convinced that the "cook" is actually the real owner, and his house has been hijacked.

Your thinking of Horcoff, who was named the best looking hockey player of the year.
didn't Souray ask for a trade near the end of the year? Weren't there a few vets who wanted out? wasn't Smid grumblin? Should see some exits..

I could be mistaken or it could be selective memory, but I don't remember reading or hearing about any one player in particular looking to jump ship at the end of the season.
Is everyone just looking for another guy to hate on ala Chris Pronger?
So my buddy, who is a frequent viewer but non poster of the Nation and who is also a prominent real estate agent in Edmonton had told me that Souray has not listed his house for sale and that he is in fact just getting a new one built. I don't know what to believe. My heart is torn. I still think he is leaving though.
And I am currently drunk. yes.
Didn't your teacher ever tell you if you're going to bring some for yourself, you must bring enough for the rest of the class?
Sheesh. Kids these days.
I think Souray asked for a trade at season's end and management, realizing that having another all-star defenceman (and one from Alberta, no less) want out of Edmonton, would be devastating PR for the Oilers, and so told him to lay low and keep quiet. And in return, they will trade him before the start of next season and both sides will deny that he ever wanted out.
Meh I am getting tired of buying 44 jerseys! Note to self ....stop it, jusy stop it
Damn rumors, reminds me of a little ditty from the 80's

World Oceans DayOur oceans: opportunities and challenges08/
8 June 2010, World Oceans Day - Billions of dollars and thousands of lives can be saved if we address the loss of marine and coastal biodiversity and ecosystem services through improved governance. This is a key theme of World Oceans Day, celebrated on 8 June 2010 for the second year running.In his message for World Oceans Day, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said: "If we are to safeguard the capacity of the oceans to service society's many and varied needs, we need to do much more. On this second annual commemoration of World Oceans Day, I urge Governments and citizens everywhere to acknowledge the enormous value of the world's oceans - and do their part in ensuring their health and vitality."Ocean ecosystems are under great stress from multiple challenges including exposure to land and marine based pollution, habitat loss and fragmentation, climate change, unsustainable harvests and the introduction of exotic invasive species. Coastal ecosystem services are valued at around US$25,000 billion per year through areas like food production, storm and flood regulatory services, climate change mitigation and carbon sequestration. Yet these values are often overlooked when national development policies are prepared, much to the detriment of the poorest. Because of the weakening of these key ecosystems, about 270 million people are affected annually and some 124,000 killed worldwide every year by natural disasters including floods and droughts. Yet these can be prevented by reducing deforestation of catchments as well as restoring wetlands, mangroves and coral reefs. This year, the UN Environment Programme is commemorating World Oceans Day at UNEP Headquarters in Nairobi with the screening of Ωcéans, a film by Jacques Perrin and Jacques Cluzaud film. The documentary is designed to raise awareness of the need to protect our oceans, Using new underwater cameras that followed sea life over the course of four years in 50 locations around the world, Ωcéans is a timely reminder of the incredible beauty of a little-known, but fragile world. The crews - including some of the world's most experienced underwater cinematographers - captured about 200 species of fish, dolphins, whales, squid, lizards, crabs, turtles and creatures that defy classification.
