STATEN ISLAND (WABC) -- They're first-time parents - five times over.
Staten Island University Hospital spokesman Christian Preston says a set of quintuplets was born at the hospital yesterday. He says the four girls, one boy and their mother are doing well.
Preston declined to give the family's name, but Tony Scherillo tells the Staten Island Advance the parents are his daughter and son-in-law, Jamie and Kevin Ferrante.
He says the family was "ecstatic" on learning that the new parents were expecting five babies. He says they were delivered by Caesarean section.

Japan backed up last weekend's win over Wales with a 16-13 success over Pacific Nations Cup leaders Canada in Nagoya.
Japan backed up last weekend's impressive victory over Wales with a 16-13 success over Pacific Nations Cup leaders Canada on Wednesday.
The loss is Canada's first in the 2013 competition and means that either Fiji or Tonga, who face each other on Sunday, June 23, can win the title.
It was Japan's first win in the five-nation tournament after two defeats.
After full-back James Pritchard scored a penalty in the third minute, neither could score a point with Ayumu Goromaru missing one penalty for Japan and Ciaran Hearn missing another for Canada.
The Japanese, fresh from their historic first victory over Wales last week, repeatedly threatened the Canadians but each time they were pushed back.
Japan finally evened the score after the break when Goromaru cashed in on an easy penalty in front of the Canadian posts in the 45th minute. He added another penalty goal to give Japan a 6-3 lead in the 51st minute.
But their lead was bleak as the visitors connected passes through flanker Nanyak Dala, centre Nick Blevins, scrum-half Sean White before Hearn completed by diving between the posts two minutes later for 8-6 and then 10-6.
Local spectators were delighted when Goromaru touched down in the 62nd minute and he himself converted it for 13-10 before Pritchard evened with a penalty.
Japan again took a 16-13 lead with Goromaru's penalty in the 72nd minute.
On the final day in Tokyo, Fiji will play Tonga and Japan will play the United States.

Periodontitis (per-e-o-don-TIE-tis) is a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissue and destroys the bone that supports your teeth. Periodontitis can cause tooth loss or worse, an increased risk of heart attack or stroke and other serious health problems.
Periodontitis is common but largely preventable. Periodontitis is usually the result of poor oral hygiene. Brushing at least twice a day, flossing daily and getting regular dental checkups can greatly reduce your chance of developing periodontitis.
Signs and symptoms of periodontitis can include:
There are different types, or classes, of periodontitis. Chronic periodontitis is the most common class, affecting mostly adults, though children can be affected, too. Aggressive periodontitis usually begins in childhood or early adulthood and affects only a small number of people.
Healthy gums are firm and pale pink. If your gums are puffy, dusky red and bleed easily, or show other signs or symptoms of periodontitis, see your dentist soon. The sooner you seek care, the better your chances of reversing damage from periodontitis, potentially preventing other serious health problems.
It's thought that periodontitis begins with plaque — a sticky film composed mainly of bacteria. Plaque forms on your teeth when starches and sugars in food interact with bacteria normally found in your mouth. Brushing and flossing your teeth removes plaque. But plaque re-forms quickly, usually within 24 hours.
Plaque that stays on your teeth longer than two or three days can harden under your gumline into tartar (calculus). Tartar also may form as a result of the mineral content of your saliva. Tartar makes plaque more difficult to remove and acts as a reservoir for bacteria. You can't get rid of tartar by brushing and flossing — you need a professional dental cleaning to remove it.
The longer that plaque and tartar remain on your teeth, the more damage they can do. Initially, they may simply irritate and inflame the gingiva, the part of your gum around the base of your teeth. This is called gingivitis, the mildest form of periodontal disease.
Ongoing inflammation eventually causes pockets to develop between your gums and teeth that fill with plaque, tartar and bacteria. Bacteria deposit endotoxin — a byproduct of their own metabolism — which is responsible for much of the inflammation around teeth. In time, these pockets become deeper and more bacteria accumulate, eventually advancing under your gum tissue. These deep infections cause a loss of tissue and bone. If too much bone is destroyed, you may lose one or more teeth.
Factors that can increase your risk of periodontitis include:
Some complications associated with gum disease include:
Some research suggests that the bacteria responsible for periodontitis can enter your bloodstream through your gum tissue, affecting your lungs, heart and other parts of your body. For instance, bacteria may travel to the arteries in your heart, where they might trigger a cycle of inflammation and arterial narrowing that contributes to heart attacks.
Follow your dentist's recommended schedule for regular checkups. If you notice any symptoms of periodontitis, make an appointment with your dentist as soon as possible.
Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment and know what to expect from your dentist.
Prepare a list of questions to ask your dentist, such as:
Don't hesitate to ask other questions during your appointment.
Your dentist may ask you questions about your symptoms, such as:
Depending on the extent of your periodontitis, your dentist may refer you to a specialist in the treatment of periodontal disease (periodontist).
Diagnosis of periodontitis is generally simple. Diagnosis is based on your description of symptoms and an exam of your mouth. Your dentist will look for plaque and tartar buildup and check for easy bleeding.
To determine how severe your periodontitis is, your dentist may:
The goal of periodontitis treatment is to thoroughly clean the pockets around teeth and prevent damage to surrounding bone. Treatment may be performed by a periodontist, a dentist or a dental hygienist. You have the best chance for successful treatment when you adopt a daily routine of good oral care.
If periodontitis isn't advanced, treatment may involve less invasive procedures, including:
If you have advanced periodontitis, your gum tissue may not respond to nonsurgical treatments and good oral hygiene. In that case, periodontitis treatment may require dental surgery, such as:
Try these measures to reduce or prevent periodontitis:
The best way to prevent periodontitis is to follow a program of good oral hygiene, one that you begin early and practice consistently throughout life. That means brushing your teeth at least twice daily — in the morning and before going to bed — and flossing at least once a day. Better yet, brush after every meal or snack or as your dentist recommends.
A complete cleaning with a toothbrush and floss should take three to five minutes or so. Flossing before you brush allows you to clean away the loosened food particles and bacteria.
Also, see your dentist or dental hygienist regularly for cleanings, usually every six to 12 months. If you have risk factors that increase your chance of developing periodontitis — such as having dry mouth, taking certain blood pressure medications or smoking — you may need professional cleaning more often.

Bills place three starters on non-participation lists to start camp
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Jul 16 2014 4:59PM
Training camp is on the way for the Buffalo Bills this weekend, but they had quite a few transactions to announce just two days before the team is set to report to St. John Fisher College. Three normal starters on the team and one major contributor will all start training camp on the sidelines with different designations.
Linebacker Kiko Alonso (Active/Non-Football Injury), left tackle Cordy Glenn (Active/Non-Football Illness), cornerback Leodis McKelvin (Active/Physically Unable to Perform) and defensive tackle Alan Branch (Active/Non-Football Illness) all were not deemed to be ready for the start of training camp. The Bills also placed seventh-round draft pick and rookie linebacker Randell Johnson on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list.
The important thing to note at this time of year is that any of these players can be taken off their respective lists if given clearance by the team's medical staff. Alonso will likely miss the remainder of the year due to tearing his ACL earlier this month. Glenn missed some time at the mandatory minicamp due to an illness, but it isn't clear if the same illness is what is keeping him out to start camp.
The team also announced the signing of linebacker Stevenson Sylvester to the active roster. Sylvester is entering his fifth professional season after spending his first four years with the Pittsburgh Steelers. To make room on the roster, the Bills have released tight end Mike Caussin.

Type: Infantry,
Unit: Warhammer 40.000 Chaos Space Marines Raptors/Warp Talons,
This is a shoulder pad for Chaos Space Marine Raptors.
Chaos Space Marine Raptors are demonic horrors. They throw themselves literally out of nowhere to spread death and destruction wherever they land. They are predatory counterparts to loyal Assault Marines. And even among the Traitors they play a special role. Raptors are arrogant and vengeful hunters, who not even spare their equals. The weak are probed and rivalry among themselves ensures that only the toughest remain. Raptors carry bolt pistols and chain swords. Their conception of the world is crossed by vanity and arrogance. And the fact that their jump packs originate from the time of the Horus Heresy underlines their perverted elitist attitude towards everything else. Raptors, who abandon themselves completely to the Immaterium lose their human traits and become Warp Talons. These are monstrous creatures, corrupted by terrible forces. They are unable to speak and their mutated bodies can move between dimensions. More animal than human, they are let loose like dogs on their prey. These cruel beasts rush out of the Warpspace to their unsuspecting targets, to leave nothing but terror and fear in the hearts of the boldest 40k veterans.

Virgin Australia and Skywest Airlines expand alliance to meet growing travel demand27/01/2012
Virgin Australia today announced plans to expand its alliance with Skywest by cooperating to offer corporate customers a single solution for their air travel needs, including scheduled and charter services to regional, domestic and international destinations.
Virgin Australia and Skywest received interim approval from the ACCC for the expanded alliance, which would enable the two airlines to jointly contract with corporate customers.
Virgin Australia Group Executive of Commercial Liz Savage said the agreement would improve the airline's ability to meet the growing demand from the resources and mining industries.
"By working more closely with Skywest we will be able to provide integrated travel solutions that are tailored to the individual needs of corporate customers. This will mean a range of benefits including more competitive pricing, enhanced flight connections and a higher quality overall travel experience.
"We will also be able to extend our Velocity Frequent Flyer program to Skywest's charter services, meaning joint corporate customers can earn frequent flyer Points and Status Credits on those services and access preferred seating, priority check-in and Virgin Australia lounges.
"This alliance is an important part of Virgin Australia's strategy to increase competition in the Australian corporate travel market," Ms Savage said.
The ACCC's interim approval will allow Virgin Australia and Skywest to begin working together on the new alliance immediately. The ACCC is expected to make its final ruling following public comments on the proposal.

text: It's finally here; the epic of the year. The most expensive film of all time ($250 million, a mere $150 million over budget). The most-talked about film of the year. The most laughed at film of the summer (it's July release was pushed back, way back). Director Cameron will have the last laugh, however, and it will be a hearty guffaw. His Titanic is nothing less than spectacular, with enchanting performances from DiCaprio and Winslet as doomed star-crossed lovers, fabulous cinematography, captivating storytelling and, of course, an awe-inspiring ship (built 90 percent to scale). Cameron obviously didn't skimp, and his meticulous attention to detail helps explain the outrageous price tag. From the carpeting to the woodwork down to the ashtrays, Cameron's precision has transported us back in time to 1912. Cameron uses the love story between first-class formerly rich Rose (Winslet) and third-class bohemian artist Jack (DiCaprio) to distract us from the fact that Titanic is a purely technological film. A 101-year-old woman (Stuart) recounts the ordeal to Brock Lovett (Paxton), a slimy fortune hunter who's leading an expedition to the bottom of the Atlantic in search of lost treasure. Though the advance hoopla recalled 1995's disastrous Waterworld, Titanic rises to the occasion and is well worth the wait and the price.

World record in 8K on line Saturday in Kingsport
KINGSPORT, Tenn. - The annual Crazy 8s race is Saturday night in Kingsport. A field of over four-thousand is expected for the 8K race, 3K walk and kids race.
The Crazy 8s is billed as the fastest 8K in the world because both the men's and women's world records have been set in this event.
The race winds through a figure-8 course down candle-lit streets and finishes inside J. Fred Johnson Stadium.
In 1996 Kenyan Peter Githuka set the world record with a time of 22:02.3. Race director Hank Brown says that world record helped the Crazy 8s take off.
"We started getting some better runners back in the mid-nineties," Brown told News 5 WCYB.
"When Peter Githuka broke the world record that opened up everybody's eyes. Everyone from Kenya wanted to come to Kingsport."
Will a new world record be set Saturday night?
"You never know," Brown says.
"When Peter Githuka broke the record nobody heard of him and he came in here and just blew it away."
Registration for the race will remain open up until about thirty minutes before the 9:58 p.m. start time.

The event sponsor said he was concerned about negative community reaction.
MELBOURNE, Fla. -- A vigil in Palm Bay to mark the life of Trayvon Martin was canceled Tuesday because of safety concerns just hours before it was scheduled to start.
According to a statement from event sponsor Fathers Stand Up, concerns that the event might have been taken out of context by the community were part of the reason for canceling the vigil.
Event organizer John P. Francois, founder of Fathers Stand Up, said there was "a lot of stuff that I heard that might occur" during the vigil, which was set for 6:15 p.m. Tuesday at Palm Bay City Hall. He said he canceled because, "I don't want to see anybody get hurt on my watch."
Martin, 17, was shot and killed by George Zimmerman in a Sanford, Fla., neighborhood on Feb. 26, 2012. Zimmerman was not immediately charged, but later was accused of second-degree murder in a case that has received intense media coverage and public interest.
Martin would have turned 18 on Tuesday.
Francois declined to give more details of the alleged statements that led him to stop the event, but he said they came from three different sources. He said he did not consider them threats and did not plan to get police involved, but he went ahead and canceled anyway.
"I'd rather be safe than sorry," he said.
One Palm Bay man showed up for the event, not knowing it had been canceled.
"Why do it? One of our kids got killed," Warren Lundquist said. "Besides, I'm anti-gun too."
Francois said the Palm Bay event was not meant to promote any position but rather to remember the life of the slain teen.
"You have some people that stand behind George Zimmerman, then you have people who are really saddened by a young teen getting killed," he said. "To me, to Fathers Stand Up, it's about the teen not being here anymore.
"All it was going to be was a lighting of candles, happy birthday Trayvon Martin, rest in peace."
Fathers Stand Up Corp. is seeking nonprofit designation. The group's mission is to reunify fathers and families and strengthen the community by supporting families. Fathers Stand Up was involved with local vigils immediately after the death of Martin, at which Francois said there were no problems.
Francois said he would plan another vigil, though next time he would arrange for security or seek a protective police presence.
"Next time, I'm going to be more prepared," he said.

UCL Australia
Demand reduction and demand response - the need for joined up policy
10 May 2013
Yesterday Dr Gillian Owen, Senior Research Associate at UCL Australia's International Energy Policy Institute, presented to the UCL Energy Institute on electricity demand reduction and demand response.
Overview of the Presentation
A number of policies have been developed to improve energy efficiency - particularly to reduce demand and carbon emissions. There is also growing interest in the prospect for demand response in the electricity system to manage the transition to greater use of electricity for heating, and transport, while avoiding high growth in peak demand and to develop a smart grid. However, these policies are to some extent being developed separately with the risk of potential conflicts and unintended consequences. The presentation examined some of the challenges and what we can do to address them, based on developments in the UK and Australia.
View the 'Demand reduction and demand response – the need for joined up policy' presentation
About the speaker
Dr Gill Owen has undertaken extensive research and published widely on energy efficiency, fuel poverty, smart meters, distributed energy and demand side response. She has been a part-time Senior Research Associate at the Energy Institute at University College London since 2011 and now continues her association with UCL based in Australia at the UCL International Energy Policy Institute. She also has a part-time senior research post at Monash University and is providing advice to the Australian Energy Markets Commission and Australian Energy Regulator. Until her departure from the UK in August 2012 she was Vice Chair of the Government's Fuel Poverty Advisory Group, a Non-Executive Director of the water regulator Ofwat, a member of Ofgem's Consumer Challenge Group, DECC's Smart Meters Consumer Advisory Group and Chair of the REAL Consumer Assurance Scheme for microgeneration. She was a Commissioner of the UK's Competition Commission for ten years until 2002 and has also been a non-executive board member of Ofgem.

Academic Paper
|Bundles in Academic Discourse
|Ken Hyland
|University of Hong Kong
|Linguistic Field:
|Discourse Analysis
|Automated, frequency-driven approaches to identifying commonly used word combinations have become an important aspect of academic discourse analysis and English for academic purposes (EAP) teaching during the last 10 years. Referred to as clusters, chunks, or bundles, these sequences are certainly formulaic, but in the sense that they are simply extended collocations that appear more frequently than expected by chance, helping to shape meanings in specific contexts and contributing to our sense of coherence in a text. More recently, work has extended to "concgrams," or noncontiguous word groupings where there is lexical and positional variation. Together, these lexical patterns are pervasive in academic language use and a key component of fluent linguistic production, marking out novice and expert use in a range of genres. This article discusses the emerging research which demonstrates the importance of formulaic language in both academic speech and writing and the extent to which it varies in frequency, form, and function by mode, discipline, and genre.

Who are we hating now?
If there is one constant in the evolution of "civilization," it has been bigotry, prejudice, war, hatred, etc. Now we see Moslems as a violent "group" of people. Let's take a look...
Islam is about 1500 years old. What was happening in Christianity in its 15th century or so? Well, John Huss was being burned at the stake for questioning Roman Catholic actions and beliefs. He was not alone in being punished by the Church this way. And in Germany a guy name Martin Luther was starting something that would evolve into Protestantism and Lutheranism. Because of that, thousands upon thousands of people would be murdered by other "Christians" in the Reformation and Counter-Reformation.
Do you remember the Crusades? "Christians" from all over Europe marched as an army on Jerusalem to take it back from the hated Moslems. It was as though "Christians" felt they owned Jerusalem. Moslems were slaughtered by the thousands. In fact, "Christians" bragged about being in blood of Moslems up to their ankles. It was brutality beyond belief.
What was the predominant religion of the Germans who murdered six million Jews in the 1930s and 1940s? It was Christianity. Yes, leaders in Germany and Italy during the fascist governments were brutal and ruthless in the way they treated non-Christians. And the Christian churches remained rather silent during it all. Those few Christian leaders who fought against this wholesale murder became well-known for their heroism and uniqueness.
The Christians who came to colonize the New World treated Native Americans atrociously for centuries. And the slave trade was conducted by "Christians."
"Christians" in democracies did not permit women the right to vote or even own property. Women were denied education, certain jobs, etc. "Christians" denied minorities the right to vote in the "democratic" USA.
But that was long ago, you say. Was it? Who do you think it was that lied about Barack Obama's birthplace, religious beliefs, etc.? Those lies were broadcast by "Christians."
Who do you think wants to keep immigrants from Latin America from entering the U.S. under almost any circumstances? Not only is that select bigotry held by "Christians," it was the very blood lines of "Christians" who entered the U.S. without any visa or permit in the 18th and 19th centuries. Ellis Island was besieged with immigrants from Europe, most of whom were "Christians." And no papers required.
Who do you think built this country? Immigrants.
And so it goes. No one is excusing the violent activities of some Moslems today. But Christianity is covered with a history of violence, hatred, bigotry, war, murder, etc.
Might it be time for each of us to take stock of our own heritage, our own beliefs, our own opinions?

Flames Camp News and Notes, January 16 2013
Ryan Pike
January 16 2013 03:12PM
A packed house was on-hand for the fourth day of Calgary Flames camp. The stands were the fullest they've been – I'd estimate somewhere just south of 1,000 fans in attendance – as the Flames had a mixed session of practice and scrimmage.
The big news today was that Flames captain Jarome Iginla joined the main group for practice and the scrimmage. While the captain wasn't the best player on the ice, he definitely hadn't lost a step nor looked out of place.
Word leaked out from the NHL offices late yesterday that teams have to finalize their rosters by 3pm ET (1pm Calgary time) on Friday. That means that the Flames have two more on-ice sessions to decide who stays and who goes, and then to estimate the status of Anton Babchuk (shoulder), Roman Cervenka (blood) and Jiri Hudler (death in the family).
Several Abbotsford Heat players went through waivers yesterday. The reason? When the players were assigned to the AHL originally, on the day of the CBA's expiry, there wasn't really a mechanism for them to go through "real" waivers and so the NHL and the NHLPA came up with a temporary waivers measure. The five players in question – Akim Aliu, Paul Byron, Krys Kolanos, Joe Piskula and Ben Walter – were thus defaulted to the NHL roster when the new CBA began and had to clear waivers to be assigned to the farm. Thus, Paul Byron and Leland Irving would need to go through waivers to return to the Heat (as would Brett Carson and anybody else on an NHL deal).
It was another lengthy, up-tempo day, split into two parts. The focus of the entire day was special teams, with a lot of time being devoted to the power-play.
Ten players wore black jerseys to start and were the two power-play units:
Unit 1: Glencross / Cammalleri / Iginla / Wideman / Tanguay
Unit 2: Baertschi / Backlund / Stempniak / Giordano / Bouwmeester
Everyone else was on the PK (16 players) and they cycled through four groups, constantly putting the power-play groups up against fresh killing units.
Following this, the team broke into lines and began a more systems-based practice focusing on breakouts and odd-man rushes.
Glencross – Tanguay – Iginla
Baertschi – Backlund – Cammalleri
Horak – Stajan – Stempniak
Comeau – Jones – Jackman
Begin/Byron – Jones – Winchester
Giordano – Bouwmeester
Butler – Wideman
Smith – Sarich
Brodie – Carson
Breen – McCarthy
After a ten-minute break, the Flames returned for a special teams focused scrimmage. Calgary-born winger Blair Yaworski suited up for Team Red. He last played with the Alaska Aces, but primarily spent time as his team's designated penalty-box dweller.
Team Black:
- Glencross / Cammalleri / Iginla / Wideman / Tanguay
- Comeau / Jones / Jackman / Smith / Breen
- Winchester / Byron / Begin / Carson / McCarthy
Team Red:
- Baertschi / Backlund / Stempniak / Giordano / Bouwmeester
- Horak / Stajan / Street / Brodie / Butler / Sarich
- Yaworski
The teams cycled through 5-on-4 and 5-on-3 advantages, with Black getting power-play time to begin and then Red getting their man-advantages.
Team Black opened the scoring on a 5-on-3 advantage, with Mike Cammalleri finishing off a fairly slick passing play also involving Dennis Wideman and Alex Tanguay. Outside of that, though, Team Black's power-play units didn't set the world on fire.
That designation belongs to Mikael Backlund's power-play unit. Backlund scored three goals, consecutively, powering Red to a 4-1 win. Roman Horak had the other goal for Red, set up by Ben Street. Not surprisingly, Backlund's line with Baertschi and Horak was the best for either team.
Flames coach Bob Hartley noted after the session that Iginla looked good, Backlund looked good and Miikka Kiprusoff will be given a day off on Thursday. The format for goaltenders has been Kiprusoff in one net the entire time (for the last four days of ice-time) while Henrik Karlsson and Leland Irving split a net on the other end of the ice.
Beyond that, decisions await the Flames coaching staff and management, as cuts loom on Friday.
I finally made it out to practice today. Backlund looks great, I know you can't get excited about the preseason but he and Baertschi look really really good out there together.
Irving looks like a junior goalie unfortunately, hope they cut him loose in the summer.
After seeing our Centre depth today, I think Feaster should definitely offer Gomez a resurrection contract. He won't set the world on fire but he's definitely an upgrade.
January 16 2013, 04:31PM
I'm finding myself very pumped about the BBC line. It could be a real dandy, if Hartly keeps it together.
Thank god we'll be seeing some consitent lines, hatever they end up looking like. Watching he Sutter's suffling lines got very old.
It's starting to really annoy me that Brodie and Carson are basically joined at the hip. Does Hartley not realize how awesome Brodie is, or is he just not playing well enough to unseat Smith?
Aside from the Brodie/Smith thing, I like the defense pairs the way they are (and the way they've remained for most of camp).
Nice summary as I missed most of the practice but saw the scrimmage. Sorry I did not see you guys there but there was like 1000 folks there, surprisingly lots of school-age kids. Wow the young guys look great, Backlund and Baetschi but Horak as well. Serious question for you guys:
While I potentially see merit in Gomez, does anyone else just wish the Flames would about 4 veterans away (mainly forwards) to get some draft choices and cap space and let our young guys get more ice time and/or just make the big club?I don't think Horak should go to Abby...Breen looked OK as well.
January 16 2013, 05:44PM
@Ryan Pike
Nice work Ryan.
Nice work Ryan.
I second that!
January 16 2013, 09:38PM
Also, nobody in the media room is ENTIRELY sure if Ben Street needs to clear waivers or not.
He's NEVER had an NHL deal before, and under the terms of the old CBA, he wouldn't have to clear. Maybe.
In short: we'll see.
I for one am pulling for street.
Ryan thanks for the coverage, damn hockey is back look at all the articles flowing in :)
P.s. time to get my $50 NHL Center Ice package
Was it Street who made that great pass to Horak in the highlight package?
Thanks so much for this. If I could ask a question: is it true there is NO TV coverage of game 1? If so, how can this be so?
@Jai Kiran
It is on Sportsnet starting at 4. Flames site has not included all the Sportsnet games on the schedule yet. All games are televised this year.
January 16 2013, 11:17PM
Good job Pikey, but I need more information about something.
As in, I want to hear more about VF's suit.
Got home late tonight so thanks for the thorough update! Must say, it's the first time I've been encouraged by backlund. Baertschi is a Sure thing . Finally something really promising ! Can't wain for hudler to eventually get back! Makes me so angry the media is so blah on the flames! We have a great core! I say buy out stajan and bring in Gomez. Can't hurt. An upgrade if u ask me.
Have to chime in one last time! Is it just me or is anyone else sick of hearing how Edmonton is building something special! Is that what u call sucking since 05'... Building something special! At least our organization has not tanked and made our goal the first pick every year! Shame on tsn and sports net and the loser no name former nhlers who call losing building something special! I'm proud of what Feaster has accomplished in such a short time with his staff even with finishing 9th! Baertschi, sieloff,Jankowski, kulkin, kulak, brossoit, gillies, wotherspoon, granlund and our ace..gaudreau down the rd. hudler, wideman, cammi, tangs, jones, horak, cervenka.This without tanking and having mid-range picks!
Oh yeah Feaster got stempniak for lanks , resigned jackman , aquired Ramo and the 2 second rounders with horak. Proud of our flames team management! New era and much to look forward to!
January 17 2013, 08:48AM
Refreshing to here someone else likes what Feaster's done as much as I do! Also not ranting about how we need to trade Iggy and Kipper and draft higher.
Its pretty sweet to know any playoff team can win the draft lottery also so finishing 9 wont be as disasterous. But hopefully we won't have to worry about that.

The Emery County School District received high marks for their financial statements. Kimball and Roberts, certified public accountants recently completed their independent audit of the school district.
Kimball and Roberts said there has been a difference in the audit reports since the adoption of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, fondly known as GASB. They reported that in their opinion the books and records of the school district are in good condition and that the internal controls in place make for a good system. "We are very comfortable with what we have found," said Kimball.
"We feel that all the requirements have been met and we feel good about that," said Ross Huntington, district business administrator.
Kay Kimball pointed out that the district is now able to show depreciation on its assets, which previously you couldn't show depreciation of federally owned assets. He said that all of the computation on the depreciations had been done properly. One other new requirement is the inclusion of the original budget along with the final budget so all changes made throughout the year are readily shown. All of the depreciations must not only be shown but must be allocated to the proper functions.
The auditors also check for compliance in their reports. They make sure all federal monies are spent where they are supposed to. All federal monies come with a lot of strings attached for compliance and use.
Rick Roberts reported that they have followed the guidelines for the audit outlined by the state. He spent some time explaining how all monies collected by the schools must be deposited within three days as required by law. "It is important to get the funds in the bank," he said. They also check to make sure a public hearing was held for the budget. These budget hearings must be properly advertised and the auditors check for compliance with this regulation. Roberts pointed out that after completing the audit the risk for the district is assessed and if determined to be low risk then the next assessment will be geared to a low risk evaluation. "In testing we have found no material errors to report to the federal government," he said.
Roberts reported that in the management letter there were some issues to be discussed. With the purchase of the athletic equipment for the area schools which are on a lease and expenditure program, he recommended the budget be reopened to show the increase.
Roberts also had found some problems with the way travel is reimbursed. This payment should be reimbursed through the district office for 30 cents per mile. No principal should be reimbursing their own travel expenses through school funds. "Tidy up travel costs," recommended Roberts. He also recommended that gate receipts from athletic functions should be tallied and signed by at least two people. This money should be immediately placed in the school safe or should be placed in the night deposit. He recommended an electronic cash register for the high school to eliminate duplication of receipts.
Roberts recommended an electronic system for the adult education program to keep student records on track. It is hard to gather the information for the reports required by the state without such a system.
The purchase of supplies should be done with a purchase order and not by check and reimbursement. Superintendent Kirk Sitterud said that Huntington is working with the principals to correct these situations. Sitterud said the financial statements are easier to understand than in the past.
Board president Laurel Johansen reported that the Emery County School District financial department has done a great job. "It's admirable and you should be complemented . We appreciate your efforts to keep things running smoothly."

It's no secret that computer screens are not easy on the eyes. Anyone who has spent a significant amount of time using a computer knows this. In fact, many people end up visiting their eye doctor because of pain or discomfort caused from spending too much time in front of a computer screen.
While nothing beats a visit to the eye doctor, there are some things you can do that can help alleviate or reduce some of the discomfort.
1. Reduce glare on the computer screen. There are a number of different ways to do this. First, reducing the light that shines onto the screen can greatly diminish glare. If that doesn't help, an anti-glare screen cover might also help. Some people have reported mixed results with them, but if nothing else is helping, it might be worth a try.
2. Adjust the viewing angle. Changing the tilt, or viewing angle of the screen can not only help make the screen easier to see, but can also help reduce harmful glare.
3. Blink more often. Some studies show that people blink up to five times less than normal when staring at a computer screen. As silly as it sounds, consciously blinking more often helps moisten the eyes and keeps them from drying out, which helps prevent dryness and irritation.
4. Take short, frequent breaks. Taking periodic "mini-breaks" away from the computer help your eyes better cope with the additional eye strain imposed by staring at the screen. Some studies seem to indicate that shorter, more frequent breaks are more effective than longer, less frequent breaks.
5. Don't underestimate ergonomics. Using proper posture while sitting at your computer desk can make a world of difference on eye comfort. Thighs should be level while sitting and feet should be flat on the floor. The screen should be positioned just slightly under eye level.
6. Clean your screen often. It may sound insignificant, but a dirty screen can cause a great deal of eye strain. A monitor's screen should be cleaned frequently and performed properly. Older CRT monitors with glass surfaces can usually be cleaned with a mild glass cleaner.
LCDs, on the other hand, must be cleaned with special alcohol-free solvents and scratch-free fabrics to avoid damaging the screen's soft and delicate surface.
7. Check your monitor's refresh rate. Older CRT monitors are often mis-configured to use a low refresh rate, which can cause severe eye strain and major discomfort. Refresh rate determines how many times the screen is re-drawn every second, and is usually measured in hertz (Hz). Acceptable refresh rates are 85 Hz or higher.
If you don't know how to check what refresh rate your computer is using, please contact a computer professional who can check the settings for you. Using the wrong refresh rate can severely damage the monitor itself.
8. Upgrade your monitor. If you currently own a monitor that is more than several years old, it may benefit you to purchase a newer monitor that is easier on the eyes.
Newer CRT monitors support higher refresh rates than their predecessors, and often have flatter screen surfaces, which decreases the chances for glare.
LCD monitors are even better on the eyes than their old CRT counterparts and don't require an extremely high refresh rate.
While LCDs are expensive, they are highly recommended for people who spend more than a few hours each day using a computer.
9. Decrease brightness and adjust contrast. Although LCDs may be easier on the eyes, they can still cause eye strain. Many of them ship from the factory with an extremely high brightness setting, which can cause eye strain, burning and other eye irritation. Decreasing the brightness and adjusting contrast levels can substantially decrease eye irritation.
10. Your monitor may be defective. If other options have been exhausted, and eye discomfort continues, it may be the fault of the monitor, which may be in the process of failing. A good computer technican can tell you whether or not your monitor needs to be replaced.

Cute sandals
"Just order these online not long ago. I wore them in the house just to get comfortable in them. They look really cute. True to size and color. They might run a little narrow for someone with wider feet. I would recommend a size bigger if your feet are wide. The bottom is a little hard, so it takes time to get used to it. Love the color. I can wear them all day! Can't wait for the weather to get warmer so that I can wear them outside!"

Get the candy readyPosted Tuesday, October 30, 2012, at 3:10 PM
We will need to watch out for the little trick-or-treaters because they will be too excited to watch out for us.
Kids have always loved Halloween. I can remember growing up the 1950s and going trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. Like today, we dressed up in whatever character costume was popular and had a good time.
We would go home, empty our sacks and take stock of the candy. You would have thought we had never even seen a candy bar. My mother did limit our candy intake during our growing up years. We could have candy, but not a whole sack of it. It was like a candy Christmas.
I have never minded welcoming trick-or-treaters and giving out candy. We keep the porch light on so they can know we are participating.
Some people do not like to participate and that is okay. We should also let the children know that not everyone can afford to give out candy. Many people who are on a fixed income may not be able to purchase candy and children should be taught so they can understand.
I am not up on today's costumes but I am sure they will range from the cute to the hideous. Some of the costumes are even scary in the daylight.
I have never been very creative, but when my children were growing up and attending Halloween dress up parties I could do a pretty good gypsy, pirate or hobo. I always preferred the homemade costumes.
It is a shame we live in a world where we have to be suspicious of even the candy given to the children. My grandmother used to give out popcorn balls. Everyone loved her individually wrapped, homemade popcorn balls. Today, that just wouldn't work.
In many areas it is not safe for children or adults to be out. This makes me appreciate our towns on Buffalo Island. We may not be perfect but for the most part, we can still go out with our children and feel relatively safe.
Again, let's keep safety first. Children should be accompanied by an adult, they should be able to see out of their costumes, wear reflective clothing or carry a flashlight, and have a good time being a kid.
There will be churches and organizations hosting events and that is a good alternative to trick-or-treating and can be fun for the young people.
Halloween time makes me realize how fast the year has gone by and Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner.
