It's 2015, and Nirvana artifacts are still making their way out of the woodwork. Now, an American teenager has uncovered a series of images taken at the band's very first gig.
As Consequence Of Sound reports, the teen in question — Maggie Poukkula — is the daughter of Tony Poukkula, whose Raymond, Washington house was the site of Nirvana's first show in March 1987.
Last week, Ms Poukkula casually posted three photos (below) on her Twitter account, with the caption, "Pictures of my dad and Kurt Cobain playing together back in the day." She didn't realise how massive her find was, until the images started making their way across the internet.
Ms Poukkula later explained that her father attended the same high school as late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain at one point, and would sometimes jam with him. Tony Poukkula is the long-haired chap featured in the top photograph, with Cobain and Krist Novoselic featured in the others.
According to Nirvana legend, Cobain and Novoselic's first gig featured early versions of songs like Downer and Hairspray Queen, as well as some Led Zeppelin covers featuring Tony Poukkula on guitar. Aaron Burckhard played drums at this point in time.
Catch the long-lost photos of Nirvana's first show, below, alongside a recording of the band performing If You Must on that sacred night.

Social Housing - Rent Supplement Program
The City of St. Thomas receives funding from the Province of Ontario to operate the Strong Communities Rent Supplement Program. The City must follow the rules and regulations set out in a signed Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing to administer the program within St. Thomas and Elgin County.
What is Rent Supplement?
A rent supplement is a subsidy provided to landlords to bridge the gap between the market rent charged for a unit and the amount the tenant can pay based on his or her income.
How many units are available?
The City has entered into a number of Rent Supplement Agreements with private and non-profit landlords in St. Thomas and Elgin.
There are approximately thirty units of rent supplement housing in this area, as well as ten units of supportive rent supplement housing through support agreements with the Elgin Association for Community Living (EACL) and Violence Against Women, Services Elgin County (VAWSEC).
A list of the Rent Supplement housing providers is available by contacting the Co-ordinated Access Centre (see "How to apply for subsidized housing").
How do I apply for a rent supplement subsidy?
To apply for housing under the rent supplement program, please contact the Co-ordinated Access Centre, c/o Elgin and St. Thomas Housing Corporation.
Your name will go on a waiting list for the housing providers you have selected.
How can landlords get involved in the Rent Supplement Program?
Landlords or managing agents of rental units who are interested in participating in the Strong Communities Rent Supplement Program should contact the City's Social Housing Administrator at (519) 631-9350 ext. 126.
The steps involved are:
- The City will forward a Rent Supplement Program application to the landlord. A landlord may offer any number of units within a building as part of the rent supplement program.
- Once the application has been approved, the City will inspect the rental building to determine suitability.
- If acceptable, the City and the landlord will enter into a rent supplement agreement for a specific number of units for a period of three to five years (renewable).
- Under this agreement, the City will refer eligible rent supplement tenants to the landlord, calculate the rent to be paid by the tenant directly to the landlord, and pay the landlord the difference between the tenant's rent and the regular market rent on the first day of each month.
- The landlord has the right to refuse any referral from the City based on normal rights of refusal of landlords (e.g. a poor rental history).
- The landlord will enter into a lease with the tenant and the standard relationship between the landlord and tenant will apply as per the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA).
Units selected for the rent supplement program are based on a number of criteria, including need, local priorities, new construction targets, maximum rent limitations, and the provision of modified units for the physically disabled.

Some people believe that a country becomes more interesting and develops faster when its population is mixed with different nationalities and cultures.To what extent do you agree or disagree with it?
It is true in my country nowadays that the population coexists with various nationalities and culture. This not only reflects that my country is actively accepting different cultures and lifestyles, but also indicates that my country is facing new challenges and opportunities.
Today it is said by a group of people that the country would be increasingly fascinating and make a rapid progress. I tend to think this sensible especially when seeing modern young people absorb novel things from international visitors and cultures. Therefore, the life becomes richer, while the views are wider than before. Another advantage of this is that along with international population up, international businesses change for the better. Some of the people tend to run small business of selling some special offers in their countries, while others often sell some materials in my country to any other parts of the world.
However,there are still several problems of this trend. These days, what worry people is a small group of young people is badly affected by some negative things from the international cultures. They include some extreme ways of living and negative lifestyles. But, these should not be the wrong of international cultures or visitors. Measures should be taken to enforce education for young people in judging right and wrong.
All in all, my view is that the government ought to encourage more international cultures and people to come in our society. In the meanwhile, the schools and the public organizations are expected to help young people learn and selectively enjoy the international cultures, and get along well with international visitors by education and guidance.

Lesotho improves in access to credit rankings
MASERU- Lesotho has shown significant improvement on the 'Ease of getting credit' from 152 out of 190 economies in 2016 compared to 82 in 2017, this according to the Private Sector Competitiveness latest ratings.
Presenting the latest figures during the World Bank celebration of Africa Knowledge Festival in Maseru, Private Sector Competitiveness Enhancement Project Manager Chaba Mokuku said the Lesotho had improved significantly as a result of World Bank support.
Mokuku said the Private Sector Competitiveness was launched in 2007 to support the government of Lesotho to improve the competitiveness of private sector in order to reduce poverty and create employment.
He said the project was intended to create an enabling environment for private sector investment and help Lesotho diversify its economy which came as a result that Lesotho is heavily reliant on a single sector for employment the government and textile sector.
Every year since 2004 the World Bank undertakes a survey administering questioners to public and private sector and determine the ease of doing business in 190 countries.
"The 2016 rankings on the ease of doing business Lesotho ranked 112 out of 190 countries and in 2017 we improved significantly to 100 due to the improvement in getting credit," he said.
He further said the rankings are done using 10 indicators among others the ease of starting a business, the ease of registering a business and also the ease of closing a business and the ease of trading across borders and getting credit.
When it comes to trading across borders Lesotho is in the top 50 economies at position 39 out of 190. We can do well all in this indicators if we show commitment. We need to work hard to attract investors.

"In a world of changing climate and evolving priorities and knowledge being at the core of the World Bank strategy in Africa unleashing transformational change across Africa starts with reliable data and evidence-based knowledge that can inform and empower policy makers, civil society and the private sector," he said.

NEW YORK (AP) Frost/Nixon is now in the black.
The play by Peter Morgan about the celebrated 1977 interviews between Richard Nixon and David Frost has recouped its $2.5 million investment, producer Arielle Tepper Madover announced Monday.

Publishers Weekly - Publishers WeeklyIn these two episodes in the Blast Off Boy and Blorp series, earthling Johnny Smith swaps places with Blorp Glorp from planet Meep as part of the Galactic Space Exchange Program. "Yaccarino puts a fresh and funny spin on ordinary events like lunchtime and gym class," said PW in a starred review of Strange New Planet. Ages 5-8. (Oct.)
Big Science Fairby Dan Yaccarino
Editorial Reviews
School Library Journal - School Library JournalGr 2-5-This third book in the series continues the adventures of two interplanetary exchange students. Blast Off Boy, an average student, has been sent from Earth to a school on a distant planet and Blorp, a brilliant space alien, is sent to Earth. When each school announces the inevitable science fair, the responses are predictable and the results are surprising. Youngsters will recognize the teachers' introduction of the science fair as a way to develop new ideas, experiment, and have fun. (Yeah, right.) They will identify with Blast Off Boy's lack of inspiration and recognize the enthusiastic response of the genius Blorp. At the last minute, in desperation, Blast Off Boy combines two items from his lunch and submits his project, ready to settle for a D-minus. When a huge plant sprouts, he wins first prize. Blorp, who went to work immediately and would take no advice, rigs up a Rube Goldberg contraption that opens cans, unaware that a simple can opener already exists. The vocabulary is accessible but the sentence structure and the alternating voices may be challenging for newly independent readers. The interest level and the humor suggest an older audience and may even appeal to reluctant readers. The artist's now-familiar retro-style cartoon drawings will spark recognition in TV watchers and picture-book readers. Add Yaccarino's name to those of Dav Pilkey and Jon Scieszka when listing authors who have nailed the schoolroom scene.-Marlene Gawron, Orange County Library, Orlando, FL Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
Kirkus ReviewsBlast Off Boy and Blorp, the two unlikely intergalactic exchange students in Yaccarino's early reader series (First Day on a New Planet, 2000, etc.) have their third adventure on their adopted planets. Here they're getting ready for their respective science fairs and once again, Yaccarino tells their parallel stories in alternating sections, indicated by oversized first letters backed by symbols of Earth or Meep. Blorp enthusiastically embraces the task and sets right to work, ignoring the helpful hints from his host parents, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Blorp's enthusiasm is in direct contrast to Blast Off Boy's dread when faced with this project. All the brainy aliens are planning their macaroni models of hydrogen molecules, atom splitters, and the like. When Blast Off Boy boasts to the class bully that his project will be better than anyone else's, the race is on. Problem is the little human has no idea what he will create for the fair. The big day arrives and Blorp reveals his amazing contraption to his human friends. Blast Off Boy, after throwing together a lame experiment at the last second, has a Jack-and-the-Beanstalk moment, wins the prize for the best experiment, and gets to see the bully devoured by his project. Yaccarino's characteristic comic, colorful illustrations, with aliens and humans straight out of a 1950s cartoon, add to the hilarity. His sly sense of the absurd is not lost in the easy-to-read vocabulary. This series is a welcome addition to the library of those just blasting off out of easy readers. (Fiction. 7-9)

Simple Tricks to Match Your Weight Loss Program
free weight loss programs – The main reason why many people give up on diet programs is the fact that they feel lacking their favorite foods and too hungry all the time. In order to lose weight, you need to cut down on calories, so eating all you like in whatever quantities you prefer is not an option. However, you can find simple tricks you can look at in order to keep on track, but without losing around the small pleasures in everyday life.
Earn your treats
If you wish to get to enjoy some of the foods you like, but are not included with the weight loss program you might be following, you need to earn them. If you manage to keep up with your weight loss progress, and you also obtain even a smaller success, you are able to treat yourself with a bit of something you like. Be aware that such events should not happen too often, because they will quickly become a habit and not an exception, and you will just find yourself sabotaging yourself and your weight loss efforts.
Tweak down your preferred foods
If your favorite foods are too rich in fat or sugar, look for substitutes that do not input conflict with the dietary guidelines you must follow, according to your weight loss program. For instance, if you like cheese and you're feeling like you cannot live without it, you can choose low fat cheese instead, or cheese variants which can be less rich in fat than your preferred cheese. Also, satisfying your sweet tooth can be simple, if you give up on sugar, and try fruits and natural juices instead.
Drink more water
There is no simpler way to avoid overindulging or eating a thing that can sabotage unwanted weight loss efforts than feeling full. H2o can help you a lot in this way. It is recommended to hydrate properly while using a weight loss program anyway, which means you should use this for your own advantage. Once you feel a craving needs to nag you, drink a glass of water instead. With a full stomach, you may feel the craving waning away.
Never stop trying
Even if it happens to go astray from time to time, do not despair. It's more important to continue along with your weight loss program than obsessing over making small mistakes. A good solution to this problem is to put in writing how many calories you have eaten extra, and do a bit extra, including exercising more to consume those calories.

DISCLAIMER: this is my first HOWTO, so ill probably get a lot of the style wrong. I just had huge trouble finding information on this problem, and i thought i should pass it on now ive solved it.
What this is for: People who have a SATA(serial ATA) raid controller, such as the sil3112 controller that comes on the Abit NF-7 S motherboard, and want to use this raid though the controller.
This is *NOT* for people with new, blank hdds. For you it is much easier IMHO to set them up using linux software raid, i believe that there is a howto on this forum already for that.
This *is* for people who need to access raid arrays they have already created, in my case i am dual booting with winxp and i have a large amount of data i need to access in linux.
It is supposed to support these raid controllers:
Highpoint HPT37X
Highpoint HPT45X
Intel Software RAID
Promise FastTrack
Silicon Image Medley
Right, lets get started. These instructions are adapted and fleshed out from the original dmraid(the program used to discover the raid devices) README.
1) download and install your kernel source, you can follow the instructions up to and including 'unpacking your kernel' in the kernel howto wiki
2) Lucky for Ubuntu users, the 2.6.8 kernel that ships with warty final already has the device mapper base code! That means for raid-0 people there is nothing to do for step 2, goto 3!
If you want to use raid-0,5 or append, you will need to apply some kernel patches and build a new kernel.
For the 22.214.171.124 kernel they are here:
Apply these patches to your kernel source using something like:
cd /usr/src/linux
sudo cat <directory containing patches>/*.patch > patch -p1
Then build your kernel following the instructions in the wiki link above.
3) Install the device mapper userspace. This is located at ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/dm/
You might as well get the latest version, which at time of writing is device-mapper.1.00.19.tgz.
Untar this somewhere and go into the directory tar creates.
then run
sudo make install
4) download the dmraid software
Untar it, and again go into the directory it creates.
sudo make install
Almost done!
5) now everything is installed. You just need to make dmraid load on startup and set up the drive mounting.
I didnt make mine load on startup, as i do not need to access my raid drives all that often. So i made a little script to mount them when i need them in my home directory.
Heres how:
You need to find your device name.
ls /dev/mapper/
There will be a few entries that look long and confusing. They are actually just the partitions of your raid drives, prefixed with a complex name. mine looks like
you need to note these down.
make a new file called activateraid in your home directory.
Put this code in it :
dmraid -ay -v
mount -t <fs type> -o users,owner,ro,umask=000 dev/mapper/<your partiton name> /<your mount dir>
and add another line for every partition you have.
Save the file.
chmod 700 activateraid
6) Now test it! run
and all your drives should mount!
Hope it works for you. I was so stoked when i finally found this solution. Worth noting is that Ubuntu is the only distro of 3 or 4 ive tried that had the devicemapper code included in a form that was useful for this to work. Yay Ubuntu!

Ind. Decisions - 7th Circuit decides Illinois case on the "fighting words" doctrine
In Purtell v. Mason (ND Ill.), a 24-page opinion, Judge Sykes writes:
This free-speech lawsuit requires us to determine the present scope of the "fighting-words" doctrine. The setting is a neighborhood feud. The case features an unsightly, 38-foot recreational vehicle stored on a residential driveway in suburban Chicago, a neighborhood petition drive to force its removal, and a derogatory Halloween yard display erected in retaliation against the neighbors who led the petition drive. An unlucky police officer dispatched to mediate the dispute was sued for his efforts, accused of violating the First and Fourth Amendments.For more, see this WSJ Blog entry by Dan Slater, headed "In Wacky RV Case, 7th Circuit Rules 'Them's Not Fightin' Words'".
The plaintiffs claimed their Halloween display—wooden tombstones with epitaphs describing, in unflattering terms, the demise of their neighbors—was constitutionally protected speech. They alleged their rights under the First and Fourth Amendments were violated when the officer ordered them to remove the display on pain of arrest. The district court granted summary judgment for the officer on the Fourth Amendment claim but permitted the free-speech claim to proceed to trial. A sensible but probably misinstructed jury returned a verdict for the police officer.
We affirm. Summary judgment on the Fourth Amendment claim was properly granted. At the moment of arrest, the neighbor-combatants were engaged in a noisy argument over the tombstones, culminating in a "chest-butt." This provided probable cause to arrest for disorderly conduct. The First Amendment claim need not have been tried. The tombstone inscriptions, although insulting, cannot be considered fighting words as that doctrine is presently understood. The display was, accordingly, protected speech. But the officer's mistake about the scope of the plaintiffs' constitutional right to ridicule their neighbors was one a reasonable officer might make in this situation. He was therefore entitled to qualified immunity. * * *
In closing, a few words in defense of a saner use of judicial resources. It is unfortunate that this petty neighborhood dispute found its way into federal court, invoking the machinery of a justice system that is admired around the world. The suit was not so wholly without basis in fact or law as to be frivolous, but neither was it worth the inordinate effort it has taken to adjudicate it—on the part of judges, jurors, court staff, and attorneys (all, of course, at public expense). We take this opportunity to remind the bar that sound and responsible legal representation includes counseling as well as advocacy. The wiser course would have been to counsel the plaintiffs against filing such a trivial lawsuit. Freedom of speech encompasses " 'the freedom to speak foolishly and without moderation,'" Cohen, 403 U.S. at 26 (quoting Baumgartner v. United States, 322 U.S. 665, 674 (1944)), but it does not follow that every nominal violation of that right is—or should be—compensable. See Brandt v. Bd. of Educ. of City of Chi., 480 F.3d 460, 465 (7th Cir. 2007) ("[D]e minimis non curat lex (the law doesn't concern itself with trifles) is a doctrine applicable to constitutional as to other cases," and an award of nominal damages "presupposes a violation of sufficient gravity to merit a judgment, even if significant damages cannot be proved."). Not every constitutional grievance deserves an airing in court. Lawsuits like this one cast the legal profession in a bad light and contribute to the impression that Americans are an overlawyered and excessively litigious people.

Bank may say good-bye to chic Biltmore name
Officials at Biltmore Investors Bank NA, the Valley's 11th-largest bank, will decide within the next month whether to change the name of the bank.
The strategy comes on the heels of a real estate agreement for the bank to open its third branch in the Phoenix area. Biltmore Investors this month signed a letter of intent to be the anchor tenant in the final phase of the Gainey Ranch Corporate Center in Scottsdale.
If a name change does go through -- which Arizona boss Ron Estervig says is "at least" 80 percent likely-- it will give Johnson International Inc.'s banks a common name.
Biltmore Investors Bank was established by Johnson International in 1989 from the Phoenix-based Biltmore National Bank. The bank has grown to include a second office in Arizona and four others in Wisconsin and Illinois.
"If anybody doesn't want to change, it's probably us because we're in the Biltmore area," Estervig said, referring to the commercial district near the historic Arizona Biltmore Hotel. "But it's probably smart to consolidate the names."
Johnson International's banking business also includes Wisconsin-based Heritage Bank, which has 22 offices in Wisconsin. But Biltmore's new name is not likely to be Heritage -- that name is already taken in Arizona by Phoenix-based Heritage Bank.
"We'd have to buy them or get them to change their name," said Estervig, Biltmore Investors president and chief executive officer.
Until the name issue is resolved, the bank is holding off on a lot of its marketing. Plans for launching a third office will fit well with efforts to establish the bank's new identity, Estervig said.
Biltmore agreed to take 5,000 square feet in a 13,000-square-foot building going up on Doubletree Ranch Road and Gainey Center Drive in Scottsdale. The branch is expected to open in May.
The location, midpoint between the bank's Pinnacle Peak office and its East Camelback Road office, will make banking more convenient for some customers, Estervig said.
Estervig came to Biltmore Investors Bank in Arizona last October from Wisconsin. Biltmore Investors, formerly headed by LeRoy Gust, specializes in business banking services.
Among banks serving the Valley, Biltmore Investors Bank was No. 11 in The Business Journal's ranking by assets as of Dec. 31, 1996.
Biltmore Investor's total assets grew from $99 million as of Dec. 31, 1991, to $143 million as of Dec. 31, 1994. The bank's assets fell to $137 million as of Dec. 31, 1995, and have since made gains to a level of $138 million as of Dec. 31, 1996.
Johnson International -- a $1.2 billion holding company specializing in private banking, international banking and investment management services -- is owned by Samuel C. Johnson, chairman of SC Johnson & Son Inc., SC Johnson wax.
The banks serve corporate and retail clients, providing traditional banking products as well as securities brokerage services through Link and INVEST, in-house registered broker/dealers.
Johnson International's services within the international banking arena are provided through Banque Franck SA in Geneva, Switzerland, acquired in 1976, and TransOcean Bank & Trust Ltd. in Grand Cayman, British West Indies, acquired in 1994.
Other Johnson family interests include Johnson Worldwide Associates Inc., a publicly traded recreational products company, and J/K Management services, a financial and advisory service for the individual members of the Samuel C. Johnson and Karen Johnson Boyd families.

|sunglassesuko is not in any groups
I will admit Ray ban sunglasses sale
I will admit it; I have an preoccupation with expensive sunglasses,Cheap sunglasses australia.
I haven't always had this problem; I used to buy three or four twos of sunglasses from the cheap skate kiosk stands at the shopping mall Ray ban sunglasses sale. Without fail, every year they would fall apart. After years of having these cheap sunglasses fall apart, I decided to splurge and test out buying a costly pair of Versace's sunglasses to see how they held up in comparison.To my surprise these were made with one hundred times better craftsmanship and aside from being much more durable, I was more inclined to take better care of them since i paid so much to get them. I eventually decided I desired another pair of expensive sunglasses, this time Prada's. I was at Time Sq in New york city and decided to treat myself again. I spent roughly $300 on these sunglasses.After doing a little research, I discovered I could have purchased the same sunglasses online from Amazon for pretty much $100 less. That is a 33% savings! The biggest problem with buying your sunglasses online though, is the fact that you don't know how they're going to look giving you before you purchase them. So that is the way you pull this one off Cheap designer sunglasses. Go to your favorite local designer sunglass retail store, and put on all the sunglasses you like.Find the twos that look good giving you and write down the make and model number. The model number can typically be found inside the sunglasses arm,Buy ray bans online. Go to amazon and put the phrase in their search box. Within seconds you will be shown the product. Compare the price to your local shop, and if it is significantly cheaper, which it ought to be since Amazon has such insane buying power, simply purchase your designer sunglasses online!The optometrist or sunglass storage place specialist will be able to properly adjust the frames to suit and the order will be sent off to the manufacturer or created internal. The sunglasses should be prepared for a pick up within a few days or a month or more. Be sure you always wear prescription sunglasses to protect eyes from harmful Uv rays from the sun. It's preferable to protective when it comes to caring for eyes, rather than repairing them later in life.

These muffins caught my eye, I'm such a sucker for a streusel topping. The only changes I made to the recipe was to use caramel extract in the glaze instead of vanilla, and whole milk instead of the 2%. The texture reminds me more of poundcake than muffins, but I'm fine with that. They made great lunch box treats and along side my morning coffee. Thanks so much to Dulcy G for sharing the recipe!
* Exported from MasterCook *
Apple Streusel Muffins
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup butter -- melted
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups peeled chopped tart apples- used Granny Smiths
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon cold butter
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons 2% milk -- used whole milk
1 teaspoon butter -- melted
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract- used caramel extract
1 Dash salt
Preheat oven to 375°. Whisk together first five ingredients. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter and vanilla; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened (batter will be stiff). Fold in apples.
Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. For topping, mix brown sugar, flour and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over batter.
Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 15-20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool. Mix glaze ingredients; drizzle over tops. Yield: 1 dozen.

BBC News - Strike call from NASUWT teachers' union
I wonder if they understand the irony of
More pension wimpering.
Based on what those my other half has to mix with, they can afford to fund their own. If they quit and do a real job in the private sector they are in for a rude shock.
At least they can strike.
Odd how the government does seem to use the same tactics against every set that they disagree with.
Next they'll be leaking internal health checks to claim teachers are overweight.
How much pension do they have to pay, out of curiosity?
How come they aren't asking squaddies to replace them?
They can **** right off, already doing fuel training. Besides i haven't finished my OU degree yet!
It would be interesting to see the Army in the class room...
QMSIs in the PE department would add depth
Sure,what could possibly go wrong?
Hate to break it to you, but most school girls don't look that...
That's right, just pick up the girls from Rottingdean, what about the local chav nightmares?
Do you really think that matters?
They do in my fantasy world
To the girls... no. If you think the soldiers in schools would be the biggest pests you are wrong... very, very wrong
Good for them.
This "Government" has a fixation with public sector pensions.
Perhaps the politicians should look at their pensions.
Ha ha ha ha! Now that IS funny!
Sent from my iPhone using ARRSE
Teachers are slightly pissed off because the governent changed the deal on the pensions a few years ago saying it was now self funding *
* of course this is goverment so could just have been a lot of bollocks

Move over McKayla Maroney, you have some unimpressed competition. Al Bello of Getty Images snapped this photo of a kid at the New York Rangers vs. Pittsburgh Penguins game on Wednesday night.
The youngster is not thrilled with the board banging action going on right behind him. Why would he be? His Rangers are 16-17-2 and in fifth place in their own division. Come to think of it, he's probably just over this lousy year for New York sports. The Giants are abysmal, the Knicks would lose to high school teams, and the Yankees had to watch the Red Sox win the World Series.
At least New York is getting the Super Bowl – whatever that's worth.

The JIUSKO Deep Sea is a superb quality divers chronograph that means business. Constructed from lightweight, extra strong titanium, the Deep Sea is an ISO certified dive watch that is water resistant to 300 Meters (nearly a thousand feet). And just because it's tough, it's also a luxury timepiece, fitted with scratchproof ceramic bezel and sapphire crystal, both of which will look fresh and new for many years of hard use. Diving deep? The Deep Sea can handle that as well, with the automatic helium release valve that will preserve the watch, no matter what paces you put it through. The hands and markers on the highly textured dial will make timekeeping easy, no matter the light level. The case is 15mm thick and 43mm across the dial, an imposing (yet comfortable and lightweight) watch on the wrist.
Inside the Deep Sea ticks a high quality Japanese made chronograph quartz movement that is accurate to +/-15 seconds a month. The 24 hour subdial at the three o'clock position will tell you whether it's day or night, even inside the darkest cavern or a Trident submarine. The 60 minute counter (at the 12 o'clock position) allows for timing everything from a wreck dive of Palau, a parking meter in Manhattan, or a thick T-bone steak on the grill.
The Deep Sea comes packaged in the substantial Jiusko Professional hard shell storage case, and alsoincluded is a leather card holder that contains the warranty card and manual. A watch cleaning cloth is thoughfully included as well.
Adding all these design details together and you end up with the Jiusko Deep Sea, a watch that shares many of the features of historic brands like Doxa, Rolex and Omega. But unlike these fine brands, the Deep Sea can be yours for a mere fraction of the price.
The Deep Sea is offered with either black dial, or black dial with orange or blue accents.

Sad news came in last Friday, October 23rd when we heard that the banjo icon Bill Keith had passed after a battle with cancer. Bill was one of the true innovators of the banjo, perfecting the Melodic Style of playing which allowed him to play fiddle tunes (and much more) note for note.
I was lucky enough to get to know Bill from the time I spent living in Woodstock, New York after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Bill lived just up the road and I would often go up to his house to learn as much as I could about the banjo and music.
I have decided to remember him by sharing with everyone one of the lessons I took with him back then.
This was originally posted on the Deering banjo website, but we decided it'd be good to show here as well in order to help people learn how to buy a banjo.
Of all the questions we receive about banjos, this has to be one of the most common. We will keep this explanation very short but if you have any further questions, send them to us and we'll answer all of your questions.
So, by popular demand, here is our answer.

If Angela Merkel and Nicolas Sarkozy hoped their efforts on Tuesday to save Europe's faltering economy would be rewarded with high praise, they would have been disappointed yesterday by Europe-wide condemnation in newspapers and only a lukewarm reaction from other European leaders.
Despite the grand, but unspecified, pledges of deeper fiscal co-ordination and promises to work together more closely, newspapers were largely apathetic to the statement made in Paris.
Worried at being seen by domestic voters as supporting the sick men of Europe with their own taxpayers' money, the leaders of the eurozone's two biggest economies rejected pressure from economists and politicians to agree to the issue of eurozone bonds. The bonds are seen with increasing inevitability as means of supporting the likes of Greece, Italy and Ireland.
Even before Tuesday evening's meeting, the Italian press was not confident. Last weekend, Libero accused Ms Merkel of using the crisis to assert German influence over the rest of the Continent. Portraying the German Chancellor as a bully in an SS uniform and sporting a Hitler moustache, the front page screamed: "Germany sets the eurozone under pressure in order to control it."
More sober reflection was seen in other papers yesterday. "Germany and France try to grab control of the crisis," said La Vanguardia in Spain.
Shares fell on the disappointment in the market over at the leaders' reticence over eurozone bonds. "We have exactly the same position on eurobonds," Mr Sarkozy said. "One day we could imagine them, but at the end of a process of European integration, not at the beginning."
The Italian Finance minister, Giulio Tremonti, described the plan as a "masterstroke". Italy would be one of the countries to benefit most.
Others have been cooler on the idea, however, particularly those from countries with stronger economies. Mark Rutte, the Dutch Prime Minister, warned that a plan to introduce eurobonds should be accompanied by a schedule of punishments for countries that breach budgetary rules.
Petr Necas, the Czech Prime Minister, said closer integration would create more problems than it solved. "Whenever some problem occurs in the [EU], some silver bullet is pulled out, and it is always closer and closer integration," he said.

Research in Pediatric Rheumatology is a fast-changing field, and we offer opportunities to participate in research studies of several types. As new medications are developed and tested in adults, they require further research before they can be given to children with similar diseases. Such pharmacologic trials or drug trials are one category of research done through Riley Rheumatology. We also conduct post-market, observational research studies, known as registries that monitor long-term outcomes of children taking approved medications over the course of several years. Data from these registries help us identify benefits and rare safety issues that are only seen years after a medication is begun. This information is for optimal care of our individual patients. Additionally, we have studies that look at various biomarkers (like blood test results or other characteristics of a disease) that may help predict an individual child's response to a medication.
Regardless of the study design, the protocols are often very specific, and enroll only a narrow range of research volunteers: perhaps children in a certain age group, perhaps those with an unusual variant of juvenile arthritis, or with a particular type of kidney involvement in lupus. If we find that your child fits the spectrum of disease studied in a clinical trial, your physician may ask your consent to discuss the trial with our research coordinators. Our team works to ensure that no patient or family feels pressure to participate in research, and we follow the highest ethical standards throughout the consent process and throughout the research experience. Research participation is strictly voluntary, and we support every individual's right to participate, and to decline.
Current studies in progress through Riley Rheumatology include:
- Effects of Pubertal Hormone Changes on Early Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. Funding – NIH, Lupus Foundation of America, Department of Pediatrics at Indiana University School of Medicine. Aim: To identify major hormonal triggers to flare in lupus disease activity and the molecular pathways by which they occur after hormone changes during natural puberty in childhood SLE. Principal Investigator: K. M. O'Neil, MD. Closed.
- Infections as Triggers to Flare in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. Funding – Department of Pediatrics, IU School of Medicine. Aim: To identify if and through what immunologic mechanisms flares of lupus are triggered by common viral infections. Principal Investigator: K. M. O'Neil, MD. Enrolling.
- HER-2 Transcription Factor as a Urinary Biomarker in Juvenile Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. Funding – CARRA. Aim: to test the utility of a potential urine biomarker of renal inflammation (glomerulonephritis) in children and adolescents with systemic lupus erythematosus. Principal Investigator: K. M. O'Neil, MD. Enrolling.
- Abatacept Registry in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. Funding – Bristol Meyers Squibb, Inc. Sponsored by PRCSG (Pediatric Rheumatology Collaborative Study Group). Aim: To identify long term outcomes, efficacy and safety of abatacept treatment for JIA. Principal Investigator: K. M. O'Neil, MD. Enrolling.
- PedVas: A pediatric vasculitis registry. Funding – Canadian Institutes for Health Research. Sponsored by CARRA. Aim: To better understand the clinical manifestations of systemic vasculitis in childhood and to find best treatment practices. Principal Investigator: K. M. O'Neil, MD. Enrolling.
- The Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry. Riley at IU Health participates in this multicenter research study, which is housed at Duke University. This registry represents an ongoing effort that will be used to answer pressing questions about the current medicines used to treat pediatric rheumatic conditions. For more information on The CARRA Registry, please contact department research coordinator Mariah Boncek at 317.274.2172.
- Gene Expression In Polyarticular Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. Funding – NIH. Aim: The purpose of this multicenter national study is to understand responses to different medications for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Site Principal Investigator: K. M. O'Neil, MD. Closed to enrollment.
- Safety and Efficacy of tofacitinib in polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Funding – Pfizer Inc. Aim: To determine the safety and efficacy of a liquid suspension of tofacitinib in treating polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Principal Investigator: S. E. Tarvin, MD, MSc.
- Safety and Efficacy of subcutaneous certolizumab pegol in polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Funding – UCB Inc. Aim: To establish safety and efficacy of certolizumab pegol in the treatment of polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Principal Investigator: S. E. Tarvin, MD, MSc. Closed to enrollment.

Prague ranks eighth best for last minute Christmas shopping
The list from The Economist has some surprising results
For last-minute Christmas shopping, Prague ranked eighth in the world. The ranking by UK-based magazine The Economist put Dubai in first place. New York was used as benchmark, ranked at 100, and came in 16th place.
The ranking used three criteria. Retail penetration counted for 50 percent. "We used a ranking by CB Richard Ellis, a real-estate firm, to assess the penetration of global retailers in cities around the world." the Economist's Gulliver blog said. The other two concerns were about value for money. Day-to-day costs for visitors and cost for gift items counted 25 percent each. That data came from The Economist Intelligence Unit. The gift items tracked were "the sort of items Christmas shoppers might covet, such as booze, clothes and perfume."
Prague scored a total of 115.9 points, being behind New York on the penetration of retail brands with 77.7 points, but ahead of the benchmark city on day-to-day costs at 148.9 and ahead on value for money at 159.5. In the latter category, Prague was even ahead of first-place Dubai, which scored 157.2 in value for money. Toronto scored highest in value for money, at 181.7.
The Economist points out that many people may be surprised by the low score for New York, 16th out of the 20 ranked cities. "Visitors to America will have noticed that value for money is now hard to find given the strengthening dollar. In fact only a shopping trip in Singapore is more expensive than New York," The Economist stated.
Despite Dubai coming on top, The Economist recommended fourth-ranked London for Christmas shopping. "[London] manages to combine a festive feel with a mammonic love of shopping—all, thanks to the weak pound, at a reasonable price," The Economist said.
But Prague still has its fans. US-based CNN, using less scientific methods, picked Prague as number one for its Christmas markets at Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square.
Christmas shopping index:
City, overall score
1. Dubai, 139.4
2. Johannesburg, 127.5
3. Bangkok, 123.7
4. London, 121.4

Germany's second thoughts on immigrants
No country has been more welcoming of Middle Eastern immigrants than Germany, which has looked to a influx of one million new residents a year as a solution to its demographic population implosion. But now Germany, along with other European nations, is having second thoughts.
Even sympathizers of the refugees are having problems with what happened in Cologne on New Year's Eve. In the square between the train station and the magnificent cathedral (a place I've actually been to with my friends who live there, including at another crowded fire works night), around a thousand men of "Arab or Northern African appearance" sexually assaulted every non-hijab wearing woman in sight. They crowded around women and groped and robbed them, with reports of at least two rapes.
