BOULDER, Colo. -
Ahh, summer. If the thought of cruising around the Boulder Reservoir in a swimsuit sounds like a slice of hell, there are always the safe -- and air-conditioned -- confines of the movie theater. I'll be splitting my time between both, hoofing it to the movies before the third-degree burns set in.
This promises to be one of the better summers in recent history if what you're looking for is something loud ("Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen"), something bloody (Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds"), or something with government-trained guinea pigs ("G-Force").
While remakes like "The Taking of Pelham 123," "Land of the Lost" and Rob Zombie's "H2" are pretty standard for summertime fare, fresh ideas like Nora Ephron's "Julie & Julia" (featuring Meryl Streep as Julia Child) and Woody Allen's "Whatever Works" will hopefully offer something a little different.
And for the hopeless romantics, we have a Sam Mendes/Dave Eggers blending in "Away We Go" and the inspired pairing of Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the angsty indie "500 Days of Summer."
Opening dates are subject to change; the most recent information has been listed. Check Friday Magazine every week for the latest film openings.
May 21
"Terminator Salvation"I loved the first two Terminator films when I was a wee lass.
May 22
"Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian"Director Shawn Levy returns to the helm for the Night at the Museum redux -- this time Larry the night guard (Ben Stiller) crosses paths with Amelia Earhart (Amy Adams), Kah Mun Rah (Hank Azaria), Ivan the Terrible (Christopher Guest), Albert Einstein (Eugene Levy) and every other historical character at the Smithsonian. Why Larry goes back remains to be seen, but audiences will go back because the first one was pretty danged fun.
June 5
"Away We Go"Burt (John Krasinski) and Verona (Maya Rudolph) hit the open road to find a place to raise the kid they're expecting after the in-laws decide to move out of the country. Sam Mendes ("American Beauty") directs this dramatic comedy penned by Vendela Vida and her husband, Dave Eggers (who wrote the aptly-named "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius").
"Land of the Lost"Will Ferrell stars as Dr. Rick Marshall, a man largely regarded as a boob in the scientific community for his blatherings about time warps and vortexes. But then he, his assistant (Anna Friel) and his redneck buddy (Danny McBride) crash into an alternate universe filled with Viking boats, monkey people and an ill-tempered Tyrannosaurus Rex through one of the very vortexes he'd championed. Let's hope the dumb-fun remake is heavy on the fun and light on the dumb.
"My Life in Ruins"Nia Vardalos ("My Big Fat Greek Wedding") plays a beaten-down tour guide working alongside a sexy bus driver nicknamed Poupi. She's middle-aged, single and looking for love in this movie-equivalent of a summer beach book.
"The Hangover"Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis go searching for Justin Bartha after a stupidly drunken bachelor party in Vegas. One of them got married, they've got a baby and a tiger in the hotel room that can't be accounted for, kids on the street think they're cops, etc. It's "Dude, Where's My Car?" without the alien subplot and the sweet Gremlin.
June 12
"The Taking of Pelham 123"John Travolta hijacks a subway train and then phones civil servant nobody Denzel Washington. Will Travolta shoot the hostages? Will Washington save them? Do the two men have a history Washington's keeping mum about? If you've seen the 1974 Walter Matthau crime drama, you may already know.
June 19
"The Proposal"Sandra Bullock is a jerky Canadian about to be deported from the U.S., so she forces her assistant, Ryan Reynolds, to marry her. And then they go hang out in Alaska with Reynolds' family and probably fall in love. As my friend Beth says after a night out with Jack Daniels, "I think I'm gonna V."
"Whatever Works"Larry David steps into Woody Allen's neurotic shoes as a crotchety old man worrying about death and hanging out with a ditzy Evan Rachel Wood. Ed Begley Jr., Patricia Clarkson and Henry Cavill also star in what I hope will be another Allen gem.
"Year One"Jack Black and Michael Cera, a couple of fur-wearin', spear-wieldin', caveman-lookin' guys, get kicked out of their tribe and cross paths with historical figures while wandering the ancient world. I'm fairly certain this won't be accurate in the technical sense, but it's directed and co-written by Harold Ramis ("Groundhog Day," "Caddyshack," "Ghostbusters"), so it can't be all bad.
June 24
"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen"In arguably the biggest, loudest, pop-corniest flick this summer, Sam (Shia LaBeouf) and his supafine gearhead girlfriend (Megan Fox) run around with Optimus Prime and his robotic posse trying to stave off a second attack of Decepticons after Sam unearths the ancient history of the Transformers. I'm just going to guess here that back around the time of Year One, the robot-vehicle shape shifters were chariots.
"Cheri"This 1920s-set Parisian romantic drama is directed by Stephen Frears ("The Queen" and "Dangerous Liaisons"), written by Christopher Hampton ("Atonement") and features a cast including Oscar winner Kathy Bates and Oscar nominee Michelle Pfeiffer. All that pedigree may mean this story about a young man (Rupert Friend) schooled in the ways of love by an older woman (Pfeiffer) and then later forced to leave her could get some kind of an Oscar.
July 1
"Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs"The second installment of the animated series about a wooly mammoth, a saber-toothed tiger and a sloth wandering the Earth during an ice age finds the group in a secret underground jungle where dinosaurs still roam.
"Public Enemies"Michael Mann ("Ali," "The Insider") directed and co-wrote the story of John Dillinger (Johnny Depp), a Depression-era bank robber who thumbed his nose at J. Edgar Hoover's new FBI and his best agent (Christian Bale). Marion Cotillard stars as Dillinger's girlfriend, Stephen Graham is Baby Face Nelson and Channing Tatum is Pretty Boy Floyd.
July 10
"Bruno"Sacha Baron Cohen ("Borat") and director Larry Charles ("Curb Your Enthusiasm") return to mining characters created on Cohen's "Da Ali G Show." This time, he's the Austrian fashion reporter Bruno, who adopts an African child, wears a suit made entirely of Velcro, sits around the campfire with a group of hunters and points out they're like the girls on "Sex and the City" -- essentially putting himself in more live situations where others' intolerance and his own obnoxiousness clash. "Borat" was offensive, crude and often brilliantly hilarious, but will the setup feel tired now?
"I Love You, Beth Cooper"Director Chris Columbus ("Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets") brings Larry Doyle's novel of the same name to the screen. A nerdy high school dude (Paul Rust) proclaims his love for the hot girl (Hayden Panettiere) during his valedictorian speech. She decides to humor him and takes him out on the town, where hi-jinks (and a side of antics) ensue.
July 15
"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince"David Yates ("Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix") returns to direct the sixth installment of the Harry Potter series -- but apparently not the second-to-last; the final book looks like it's being divided into two films. In this film, Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) receives potion tutoring from a mysterious Half-Blood Prince and begins training with Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) to defeat Voldemort's (Ralph Fiennes) rising power.
July 17
"500 Days of Summer"Oh, I hope this will be rip-your-guts-out good. Joseph Gordon-Levitt thinks his troubles are over when he meets the Best Girl in the World, Zooey Deschanel. But she doesn't believe in all that Love Makes the World Go'Round stuff and threatens to break the man forever. Also the soundtrack should be good.
July 24
"G-Force"If you feel like watching an animated Disney movie about a group of government-trained guinea pigs fighting to save the world from an evil rich dude -- in 3-D, no less -- then have I got a treat for you ...
"Orphan"Peter Sarsgaard and Very Farmiga adopt a creepy little 9-year-old after their attempts to have a third child fail in this horror flick. Apparently her tight little ringlets and schoolmarm fashion didn't tip them off.
"The Ugly Truth""Legally Blonde" director Robert Luketic leads Katherine Heigl's uptight morning show producer to Gerard Butler's talk show correspondent in this gender-reversed "Cyrano de Bergerac" rom-com. I think this one's gonna be ugly.

Applied arts
Once the components have been made, our decoration and engraving workshops take on the task of giving them character. These refined finishes are the distinguishing mark of fine watchmaking.
Before assembly, a certain number of components are entrusted to the expert hands of the Manufacture's decorative and engraving artists. There they are transformed into miniature works of art.
These decorations and finishes are executed essentially by hand, using traditional tools: stones, files, burnishers, buffs, etc. They give each watch a unique personality, right down to its hidden components. Even the bridges that carry the arbors and pivots are fashioned to become more than mere supports.
Decoration of components
Master-craftsmen of the decoration workshop, trained in-house, command a wide range of decorative techniques used in the trade for centuries:
- • chamfering, by which sharp edges are faceted and polished;
- • flank drawing;
- • straight line smoothing;
- • circular graining, a process of engraving small circles very close together on plates and bridges;
- • Geneva stripes, a decoration resembling waves formed by grinding on bridges and oscillating weights;
- • snailing;
- • mirror polishing, by which a block of zinc is polished with an abrasive paste called "diamantine" until it is as perfectly smooth and shiny as a mirror, giving the technique its name.
The manually performed work of these craftsmen achieves a result that no machine could ever attain, such as the perfect clarity of a chamfer. It also offers the craftsman freedom of expression. During circular graining, it is he who decides on the position of each circle. To cite one example, it takes a whole month of work to decorate the 70 components of the Minute Repeater calibre 332.
On some case-backs or oscillating weights, four engraving artists create worlds peopled with creatures, divine or mischievous. The engraving is executed entirely by hand using a small graver, without the aid of any digital technique.
One of our master-engravers adorns certain timepieces with automaton scenes.
Of course, it is possible to personalise a watch by having it engraved with a motif of your choice.

- 4 eggs well beaten, with
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 4 Tblsp. sugar
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- Cook up on a lightly greased griddle until golden brown on both sides.
- Roll up and serve with lingonberries, strawberries and whipped cream or maple syrup.
Terri's Notes
These are thin pancakes. Trust the process-batter is very thin and runny!
- I use 1/4 cup batter in a 9 inch sauté pan. Or, I use 1/2 cup batter in my electric skillet to make a big pancake that I cut in two before I flip it.
- Do roll them up into little logs to serve!
- They 'keep' well, and it doesn't hurt the quality to collect them on a dish in the oven while you cook the whole batch. Everyone can eat together.
- One batch serves 3 adults.
- Save the leftovers, they microwave great!

Fernandez shares spotlight before Miami gem
MIAMI -- Jose Fernandez may have stolen the show Friday night, but the Marlins rookie gladly shared the spotlight in a touching moment just before he threw his first pitch.

MIAMI -- Jose Fernandez may have stolen the show Friday night, but the Marlins rookie gladly shared the spotlight in a touching moment just before he threw his first pitch.
When Fernandez paced to the mound to warm up in the first inning, he didn't walk alone.View Full Game Coverage
Fernandez was accompanied by his friend, Zeb Vance, a 25-year-old from Greensboro, N.C.
"To him, it was really special," Fernandez said. "I've known him since my first year in the Minor Leagues, right after I got Drafted."
Vance and his family are known by all the Marlins' players who passed through low Class A Greensboro on their way to the big leagues.
Once Fernandez reached the mound and prepared to warm up, Vance headed off the field, but not before shaking hands with catcher Jeff Mathis.
"The parents, the fans over there, they give a lot of love," Fernandez said. "It's just amazing. I like to give when I can. I try to give back to the people who love this game and have fun watching it."
Fernandez promised to win for Vance, and did the rookie ever deliver, striking out 14 in eight innings in the Marlins' 10-0 win over the Indians.
"What Jose did on the mound before the game, that goes to show you right there what kind of guy he is," Marlins first baseman Logan Morrison said.
"Zeb was there when I was in Greensboro in 2007. That's a special kid in so many ways. I think that was a real thrill for him to get on the mound before the beginning of the game. That was Jose's idea. That's the type of stuff that leaves a lasting impression on people. Not the 14 K's."
When Fernandez was at Greensboro, he also brought Vance to the mound with him before a start.
On Friday night, Fernandez shared the moment with a fan who traveled from North Carolina to see him pitch.
"I gave him my bat. I gave him a ball," Fernandez said. "Walking with him out there, it opened a lot of eyes. A lot of people who get to know me as a person off field, I think that's really important, too."
Morrison says Fernandez possesses all the traits to be a role model.
"To be great, you're going to have a certain aura about you," Morrison said. "Is he confident, is he cocky? Yeah. But you've got to be to play this game. You've got to be to be great. That's all the good things about him.
"Off the field, he's a great dude. Comes up to me every day to say hello. He doesn't have to say hello to me, who am I? He's awesome. I think it's the stuff he's going to be doing off the field. He's going to be an ambassador for this game for a long time."

The Importance Of Home Staging and Other Cost Effective DIY Improvements
How important is home staging when selling your home? Most would agree that it produces some impressive results! Home staging has an impact on not only the selling price of the home but also the speed at which a home sells.
According to a survey conducted by HomeGain, the top five home improvements that real estate professionals recommend to sellers are:
- Cleaning and De-cluttering. This is a no brainer for many people who are selling their homes. Obviously we all need to pack, downsize, and organize so that moving is less chaotic than it already is. HomeGain estimates that for a cost of $402 a homes value can increase by up to $2024!!! That is a 403% ROI.
- Lightening and Brightening. A fresh light/bright colour to create the blank canvas buyers need to envision their future in your home; takes you a long way as a seller. Updating light fixtures and making things more streamlined drastically improves the appearance of your home. With estimated costs of $424 this could mean the potential of a $1,690 price increase.
- Repairing Electrical or Plumbing. This will cost a bit more but the ROI is astounding at a potential of $3,175 increase in the selling price.
- Landscaping. We have all heard of curb appeal and know that the beautification of a home is equally as important on the inside as it is on the outside. You could increase the price of your home by up to $1,777 with an investment of $564. Not bad right? Isn't it a little bit fun to get your hands dirty in the garden?
- Home Staging. We all want to see a homes potential. By creating an ambiance and improving the overall aesthetic of your home you could bring in an extra $2,145!
These are all relatively low cost improvements that sellers can do themselves or with the help of family and friends. These tips and other cost effective home improvements are worth the extra effort and investment.
Ultimately, the simplest of things are all that is necessary to make BIG changes in your selling price. The home staging industry has seen rapid growth and it is because home staging WORKS! The ideal scenario is that a seller's house goes to market and they can sell their homes for more money and in a smaller time frame. So get your gardening gloves on, your painting overalls and your high waisted jeans for plumbing. It's time to put a little elbow grease into your home and maximize your ROI's!! Happy Selling!

DataMosaic needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 88 designs submitted by 28 freelance designers.
Yoga Infinity/ Acupuncture Infinity
Overview: Yoga Infinity and Acupuncture infinity are two business directories housed on one site. The site enables patients or customers to find information on local acupuncture clinics/practitioners, yoga instructors, holidays and retreats.
Brand value: people are going on to yogainfinity/acupunctureinfinity to find information to help make positive changes in their life. This aspect of healing, openness, subtlety, calmness must come across in the logo.
The logo: Must be creative and ideally (but not essential) use infinity in it somewhere. The colours must be soft.
The graphical logo should be kept separate from the actual text, so in the future we may be able to add more directories by only changing the text. It is important that the text font be subtle and not too overpowering.
See http://www.istockphoto.com/file_sea…ID=8617253 for an idea of concepts that we like. In particular I like the lotus flower in 11389184 (top middle image) and the infinity symbol which is part of the cross legged person in 7671510 (top middle image). Perhaps one potential idea would be to drop an infinity logo into a lotus flower?
Following the logo I need the words Acupuncture Infinity and Yoga Infinity (both in the same text style).

MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - A group of people in Myrtle Beach run an organization that gets a meal to 350 families in need on Christmas Day.
The Feed A Family website says their group is made up of friends, business owners and professionals from Myrtle Beach who want to give back to their community. They operate out of the Hilton in Myrtle Beach, who provides their facility and staff at no cost to the project.
Shipments of food arrive daily through Christmas Eve, loaded with turkey, potatoes, green beans - everything in a traditional Christmas meal. Feed A Family raises around $30,000 each year to fund the meals it sends. On Christmas Eve, around 400 volunteers will help cook and deliver the food to families so they have a meal for Christmas.
JouJou Safa is a co-founder of Feed A Family, and sees the response from the people they help first-hand. "A lot of the families are just so thankful, and we deliver to some very needy families," Sofa says.
Safa says the response from the community has been incredible, and unexpected. Some of their volunteers leave work to help unload trucks on their lunch breaks. In addition, they plan to provide 1,500 meals to food banks and other organizations around Myrtle Beach.
Feed A Family is still looking for volunteers to help every day until and on Christmas Eve. If you have free time and want to lend a helping hand, visit their website http://www.feedfamilies.com/blog/?page_id=2 and click the volunteer link.

Sound House Music
We are a combo retail music store. We sell guitars, amps, accessories, keyboards, drums, and pa systems. We also do music lessons. Our store is built off the electric guitar as a profit center and builds from that; including accessories, lessons, and instruments needed to create a full band. We advertise via television, e-mail, direct mail, and news paper. we are on the verge of launching a new website and would like a logo we could use in our advertising, promotional material and as the logo for our online store.
We are targeting musicians from every style and ability level. Again our store has an emphasis on the electric guitar and this makes up most of our customer base. We also conduct a lot of business with the church community including pa system and video installations.
We currently have a simple logo that uses a treble clef for the S in sound and then has a roof built over our name and would like something similar but professional and rockin' which might be a challenge. Our website is more professional than typical music stores and has a medium to light blue theme. Our current logo is black and white but would like to see something with a matching color scheme in it.

Not only did we release an update for the BlackBerry® Tablet OS today, but the Facebook® for BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet app has been updated as well! The update is available as part of the OTA (over-the-air) BlackBerry Tablet OS v1.0.5 update and will also become available for download from the BlackBerry App World™ storefront over the next 24 hours. Facebook for BlackBerry PlayBook tablet users are sure to love the new features that have been added since the initial release last month, including:
- • Video uploading
- • Facebook Search enhancements
- • Improved access to Pages
- • Message deletion
- • News Feed improvements
Let's go over the new additions!
Video Uploading
We think Facebook for BlackBerry PlayBook tablet users are going to love this new feature. Using the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet's high-resolution video recorder, you can shoot a video and upload it on the spot, or select an existing video from your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet's media library and upload it to Facebook. How cool (and easy) is that?
Facebook Search Enhancements
Facebook Search has been enhanced with a more intuitive access point and improved search capabilities. From the new Search icon on the Notifications Bar, you can filter your Friends list using the Friends Search, find that long lost childhood friend that you've been meaning to connect with using the Everyone Search, and even become a fan of your favorite band's Facebook Page using the Pages Search.
Improved Access to Pages
A new Pages tab is accessible from the Friends list where you can view My Pages and Pages You Like and seamlessly link to them to view and interact with their Wall, Info, and Photos.
Message Deletion
You can now delete a Facebook message. Simply press and hold the screen until a delete button appears, and then tap the delete button to remove the message. (Note: Deleting a Facebook message from the Facebook for BlackBerry PlayBook app will also permanently delete it from your Facebook account, so use this feature wisely!)
Photo Upload Album Selection
Organization of your Facebook albums just got easier. When uploading a photo, simply select the album that you would like to upload the photo to.
News Feed Improvements
You'll also notice that you can interact with your News Feeds via the More button to Like or comment on posts without having to leave the News Feed view. Extra convenience is a key focus in this update!
Options and Help Center
Lastly, we've removed the Options icon from the Notifications bar, but don't fret: you can still access Options – as well as the Help Center and Logout button – by swiping down from the top frame of the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet screen to reveal these options.
As we mentioned earlier, this update will become available for download from the BlackBerry App World storefront over the next 24 hours, and is also included in the newest OS update for the BlackBerry PlayBook – v1.0.5. Be sure to check out this exciting new release – then come back and post a comment to tell us what you think!

We are looking for a logo to represent the robotics' initiative.
It must appeal to teachers, students and parents.
The title "Learning to R.I.S.E." must appear in the logo.
The logo should be clean and simple, nothing too busy or elaborate.
Cartoon imagery is welcome.
Feel free to experiment with colors. We are not tied to any particular colour scheme.
The logo should imply that this will be Fun.
No stock photography.
The files we will require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)
And any file with black on white and white on black

Meg Casscells-Hamby garned All-Ivy first team honors (Gil Talbot).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Sophomore midfielder Meg Casscells-Hamby of the Harvard women's soccer team was named to the All-Ivy League first team, while four of her teammates were also tabbed to the all-conference squad, the Ancient Eight announced Thursday.
Sophomores Erika Garcia and Bethany Kanten joined freshman Haley Washburn on the All-Ivy second team, while junior Elizabeth Weisman earned All-Ivy League honorable mention.
Casscells-Hamby, who hails from Winter Park, Fla., led Harvard with six goals and 15 points, while also handing out three assists. Casscells-Hamby, who was named to the All-Ivy second team as a freshman in 2011, notched two goals and dished out two assists for a career-high six points in a 4-1 victory at Brown Oct. 13. Hamby played in 15 games this fall and also recorded the game-winner in overtime against Yale Sept. 29.
Garcia, a native of Carson City, Nev., saw action in all 17 games at back for the Crimson. A leader of the Harvard defensive corps, Garcia helped the Crimson record seven shutouts as a team, while holding opponents to only 1.35 goals per game.
After making 63 saves as a sophomore, Kanten now ranks tied for 10th in program history with 107 saves. A product of Park City, Utah, she played 16 games in net, posting an 8-5-3 overall record. Kanten had four shutouts to her credit and owned a 1.22 goals-against average and .768 save percentage. In Ivy League games, Kanten turned aside 24 shots and had a 1.10 goals-against mark.

ATLANTA — A man was hospitalized Monday night after falling 30 to 40 feet from an upper deck at Turner Field during a baseball game between the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies,
The unidentified man was listed in serious condition at a local hospital, Atlanta Fire Rescue Department spokeswoman Janet Ward said.
Details on exactly how the man fell — and what part of the stadium the incident occurred in — weren't immediately available.
Heavy rains had led to a nearly two-hour delay of the game, which was scheduled to start at 7:10 p.m.
A Braves spokeswoman referred calls to the Atlanta police. A police spokesman did not immediately return a message.
Monday's accident wasn't the first of its kind to happen at Turner Field, and marked at least the third time a sports fan has fallen from the stands in Atlanta in about a year.
Isaac Grubb, 20, of Lenoir City, Tenn. died after falling over a railing at the Georgia Dome during a football game between Tennessee and North Carolina State on Aug. 31, 2012. Authorities said he landed on another man seated in the lower level, and that alcohol was a factor.
A man fell about 25 feet over a staircase railing at a Georgia Tech-Miami football game on Sept. 22, 2012 and was not seriously injured.
In May 2008, a 25-year-old Cumming, Ga. man suffered head injuries when he fell down a stairwell at Turner Field during a game against the New York Mets and later died. Police found that alcohol had factored into that accident, which the Braves said was the first non-medical fatality to happen at the ballpark.
Turner Field became the home of the Braves in 1997, a year after serving as the site of major events for the 1996 Summer Olympics.

|No. of Victims
| 7 killed

|Portrayed By
|Ryan Locke
|First Appearance
|Like Water for Murder
The Cabbie Killer (real name unknown) is a delusional serial killer who appears in season 4 of CSI: NY.
Not much is known about the Cabbie Killer, including his history or even his real name. It was revealed that he was institutionalized at the Mannix Asylum and was put under heavy medication. Snippets from his file from the institution seen in Personal Foul, in which he was listed as a John Doe, suggests that he was severely abused as a child and that his mother committed suicide. Other keywords in the file were "religious fanaticism" and "multiple knife scars". The only thing that is known about him is that he is very religious and has been living in an abandoned firehouse in Washington Heights, he used to work for Zennith Cabs and began his killing spree in Rochester months prior to his appearance in New York. He targeted people who had large advertisements on billboards like lawyers or real estate agents. He uses tarps found in Kings County College to wrap his victims
Season 4
Like Water for Murder
The Cabbie Killer's killing spree in New York begins with him targeting real estate agents, with the murder of Chrissy Watson who showed Stella a condo a few days prior. This was his sloppiest kill, as he failed to poison her, and as a result she attempts to escape so he had to strangle her but also failed there so he just fed her to the sharks killing her and the shark. He then proceeds to kill another real estate agent named Louise Perry but this time she was just poisoned. He proceeds to P.J. Davis' apartment to kill her but has to change plans when Mac and Stella show up and instead picks up a stranger who was just inside with Davis.
Personal Foul
The Cabbie Killer strikes again after taking a break, killing a woman with the same MO but this time her body is in a fountain in Brill Park instead of at a beach. He also unintentionally left his dispatch button behind at this crime scene which allowed the CSIs to track down his former place of employment where they find his DNA which identify him by his patient records at a mental hospital. The DNA also links him it to a murder he committed in Rotchester.
He accidentally ran into another taxi driver named James Comitis and the resulting report would have exposed him, so he sent Reed, who was writing an article on The Cabbie Killer, a mysterious text naming a meeting point and promising more information on the Cabbie Killer. Reed later gets in a taxi, disappointed the person he was supposed to meet with the tip never showed up. He tries to talk to the cabbie, unaware that the driver is the Cabbie Killer, while he drives off with Reed.
He then tells Reed about the markings on the victims necks and gives him Comitis' name as a scapegoat for the killings so people wouldn't trust him. But after Reed publishes the article, things go better then expected as three fellow cabbies end up killing him. After this, he became inspired at how much people were paying attention to Reed's blog and decided to use Reed to get his message out to the world. He kidnaps Reed, binds and gags him, and dumps him in his trunk, while he forced him to listen helplessly as the killer picks up a new victim. After he murders her, he dumps the body in with Reed. The Cabbie Killer forces Reed to blog about his exploits while he carves up his latest victim's neck. But Reed leaves clues in his blogs that allows Mac to figure out he's being held at an abandoned brewery.
Eventually, he slits Reed's throat, but Reed is saved by the timely arrival of the CSIs. Stella manages to slow the bleeding, but The Cabbie Killer escapes. Hawkes matches prints on the killer's cab to those found on Comitis' car, leading the CSIs to realize that Comitis and the killer were in a car accident with their cabs. The CSIs storm the building he's living at and apprehend the killer, a religious fanatic suffering from delusions that made him believe the faces he saw on billboards were sinners he needed to deliver to the underworld.
Modus Operandi
The Cabbie killer would pose as a normal cabbie. When his victims got in his cab, he closed and locked all possible ways of escape. Then, he hit a button on his radio that filtered carbon monoxide into the back seat, slowly killing his victims when they begged for their lives. His signature was carving L2729, a reference to Leviticus 27:29, "No person devoted to destruction may be ransomed; he must be put to death", onto the backs of their necks. He then wrapped their bodies in tarps and dumped them in the ocean where they are eventually washed up on the beach, but as his murders became public and with the authorities finding his dumping ground, he started leaving them at other locations. In the case of Chrissy Watson, he strangled her when the carbon monoxide failed to kill her.

We've just learned Dale Jr's going to the team that's pretty much the Dominator of the sport these day — Hendrick Motorsports. But since Nascar only allows a team to have four drivers, and Hendrick's already got four — we've been wondering who's it gonna be? Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson are both proven winners signed to long-term deals. Mears is a young'un, but he was just signed to a new multiyear deal beginning this year, plus he's BFF's with Jimmie-John. There's only one man left to cull from the ranks — and it appears based upon reports this afternoon from the Associated Press — it'll be 22-year-old Kyle Busch. The kid may have some talent, but he's been seen by some as a "source of consternation" and frankly, he's disposable compared to bringing on Earnhardt.

Information for Patients
Uterine Diseases
The uterus, or womb, is the place where a baby grows when a woman is pregnant. The first sign of a problem with the uterus may be bleeding between periods or after sex. Causes can include hormones, thyroid problems, fibroids, polyps, cancer, infection, or pregnancy.
Treatment depends on the cause. Sometimes birth control pills treat hormonal imbalances. If a thyroid problem is the cause, treating it may also stop the bleeding. If you have cancer or hyperplasia, an overgrowth of normal cells in the uterus, you may need surgery.
With two other uterine problems, tissue that normally lines the uterus grows where it is not supposed to. In endometriosis, it grows outside the uterus. In adenomyosis, it grows in the uterus's outside walls. Pain medicine may help. Other treatments include hormones and surgery.

Wounds and Injuries
Also called: Traumatic injuries
An injury is damage to your body. It is a general term that refers to harm caused by accidents, falls, hits, weapons, and more. In the U.S., millions of people injure themselves every year. These injuries range from minor to life-threatening. Injuries can happen at work or play, indoors or outdoors, driving a car, or walking across the street.
Wounds are injuries that break the skin or other body tissues. They include cuts, scrapes, scratches, and punctured skin. They often happen because of an accident, but surgery, sutures, and stitches also cause wounds. Minor wounds usually aren't serious, but it is important to clean them. Serious and infected wounds may require first aid followed by a visit to your doctor. You should also seek attention if the wound is deep, you cannot close it yourself, you cannot stop the bleeding or get the dirt out, or it does not heal.
Other common types of injuries include

- Bruises
- Burns
- Dislocations

To read "Inclusion," the third part of this series, click here.
We have already gone over the first three principles of Pro+ soccer - Identification, Development and Inclusion. It is now time for us to tackle the last principle: Advancement.
Advancement is an area which has changed the most over the years. The environment in which clubs are competing has a lot of different pathways through which players may advance. The emphasis for the individual player used to be on regional and national teams, and of course, college. That model has definitely changed.
On the girl's side of the game, we have seen some small changes. In the past, the girls tended to focus chiefly on college scholarships. While this is still the main focus, we have seen some subtle changes recently. As most of us know, the U.S. women's pro league is struggling, and a number of Cal South alumni are now migrating to Europe to play for clubs in Holland, Germany, Sweden and Norway. This has become a new pathway through which women may advance their game, and
it offers a new tier of soccer for which young girls may strive. It is fantastic for young women to get the chance to travel so many miles and fulfill their dreams of playing professional soccer.
The biggest change in the game on the boy's side of youth soccer is in the choices that players now have. In addition to the traditional pathways such as college and the national teams, the introduction of the U.S. Soccer Development Academy and Major League Soccer's addition of what could be deemed as professional youth academies has changed the landscape of youth soccer.
The other major difference for both boys and girls in youth soccer is that there are now opportunities to play more in international games. Currently, U.S.-born players are not only representing this country, but also England, Mexico, Costa Rica, and a number of other countries. A couple of strong examples of Southern California-born players who have taken the international route are Stevie Rodriquez and Moises Orozco, who are both playing pro soccer in Mexico. Another player
who took a different path is Jack McBean, who became the youngest player ever to sign with the LA Galaxy.
These examples and more are a big part of what advancement should be. It should not matter where a player ends up playing. Our role should be to help the players advance as far as their dream can take them.
So, what does the future look like for Pro+ and our member clubs in the terms of advancement?
We know youth players all have different types of objectives as far as how they want to advance in the game. We don't know which road is the right one; each player must decide that individually. What we can and must do is continue to support every player in his or her quest for advancement in the game.
Currently, Pro+ is pursuing a number of opportunities to create partnerships with international clubs from around the world. The goal is to help players from Cal South get some international exposure, and also give them a chance to experience the inner workings of an international soccer club, allowing them to compare it to the experience at home.
We know college is the best thing for 97% of the elite players in the country but we have to remember that this is not the only way or place to advance as a player. The focus of Pro+ and the principle of advancement are both based on being player-centric. We should support players who want to advance to the next level, whatever it might be.
Players should understand the structure of the Pro+ program and why we have two annual training cycles. Cycle one starts in the spring/summer of each year. Cycle one's main goal is to identify as many elite players as possible and offer them an opportunity to develop with the best players in their age group. This cycle is a very key part of Pro+, as we announce very large player pools at this point.
Cycle two, the winter cycle, is based on competition, so the player pools are a lot smaller as the focus is on building teams to represent Cal South. The players are selected to attend the National and Regional ODP championships in January and March of the following year. Our goal is have our teams perform to the highest potential possible, which in this case means competing for a regional or national championship title.
In every country in the world, players represent their region, town or county and compete at these types of events. We stress to the players chosen for these teams that they are representing all the 156,000 players in Cal South and how important this is. On and off the field, we are striving to achieve excellence in the game.

text: 5 Points Against GMO Labeling March 21, 2014 09:12 PM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By John Dillard Farm Journal Columnist Email There is significant debate about whether food containing genetically modified organism (GMO) ingredients should be labeled. The conflict pits farmers, food processors and seed suppliers against a collection of grassroots consumer organizations, anti-corporatists and organic food interests. GMO labeling proponents have not succeeded at changing the status quo, so they are turning to state measures. After expensive educational campaigns on both sides, ballot initiatives to require GMO labeling in California (2012) and Washington (2013) narrowly failed. Maine and Connecticut technically have GMO labeling laws, but their laws only become effective if a critical mass of neighboring states also jump on board. At press time, several state GMO labeling bills were being considered across the country. Proponents of GMO labeling say it is about transparency and consumers' "right to know." At first, these reasons appear persuasive. However, there are many arguments against mandatory GMO labeling. When consumers and voters see both sides of the issue, "just label it" is much less compelling. 1. GMOs are safe. Despite inferences or accusations by labeling proponents implying that GMO foods are unsafe, there is no scientific proof that foods containing GMO ingredients are less healthy than their conventional counterparts. This is the position of the Food and Drug Administration and the American Medical Association, and it is backed by hundreds of independently funded research studies. GMO traits undergo an extensive testing process. If a health risk, such as an allergen, is identified, which has happened, these products do not go to market. 2. Labels stigmatize GMOs. Consider the products we label. Cigarettes, alcohol and pharmaceuticals are labeled to disclose potential health hazards. Nutrition labels inform customers about the ingredients in their food, as well as its nutritional content. To the average consumer, a GMO label says the product is less safe than a non-GMO product. Make no mistake about it—the goal of GMO labeling proponents is to stigmatize the use of GMOs. For instance, when Whole Foods said it would require GMO labeling in its stores by 2018, its suppliers did not simply decide to start labeling products before the deadline. Instead, they are scrambling to find new non-GMO ingredients and formulations. Many countries in the developed world require GMO labeling, but it is hard to find GMO products on grocery shelves in these countries. It's very telling that the primary sources of funding behind the "Just Label It!" campaign, which supports state labeling initiatives, are organic food manufacturers that are in the best position to profit by the GMO stigmatization. 3. GMOs have a multitude of benefits. Although GMO crops are not a cure-all, it is undeniable that GMO crops are a great tool for pest management. Roundup Ready technology has reduced the use of risky herbicides and increased the adoption of no-till and conservation tillage—reducing soil erosion and improving greenhouse gas retention. In addition, GMOs hold substantial promise for improving yields, drought resistance and consumer-centric traits, such as high-oleic soybeans or apples that resist browning. 4. Mandatory labeling is likely unconstitutional. The First Amendment protects against arbitrary mandatory labeling. Labels are limited to health or safety notices. Since FDA recognizes GMOs do not pose a health or safety hazard, it would be hard to show that labels improve consumer health. Also, the Constitution's Commerce Clause prevents states from passing laws that burden interstate commerce without a legitimate justification, such as health or safety regulation. State laws that require GMO labeling will burden out-of-state food manufacturers that would have to segregate and separately label products. With no legitimate health justification, a federal court would likely invalidate a state labeling law. 5. It should be a federal issue. This debate will continue until the federal government develops a national standard that preempts state labeling laws. Our food industry cannot efficiently function with a patchwork of state labeling laws. FDA should enact a policy against requiring mandatory GMO labeling and provide clear standards for the voluntary labeling of both GMO and non-GMO foods.

I don't know what's more mind-boggling, the fact that I just used Red Bull as a credible gaming news source or the fact that Warren Spector wants more Epic Mickey games to be made. Speaking to the popular energy drink company, the developer expressed interest and enthusiasm in keeping the franchise alive.
"I'd love to see the Disney Epic Mickey series continue — there are plenty of stories still to tell about Wasteland and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Mickey Mouse!" said Spector. "I'd love to see some Oswald games, where he's on his own. He deserves a shot at solo stardom. Then there are the 'duck' games — Donald, Scrooge, etc. — that are just waiting to be made. And a bunch of us at Junction Point have thoughts about Goofy and the Gremlins and a hundred others."
Oh my God, a hundred?! That's not all, though. Spector also explained that given Disney's rich history and lengthy roster of characters, the folks over at Junction Point could very easily make Epic Mickey games for the next 80 years. Seriously. "There are all sorts of forgotten characters, concepts from films that were never made, rides that have been retired from the parks or never built at all," continued the developer. "We could map games for the next 80 years about Disney's last 80."
While Epic Mickey 2 did receive some positive reviews and was on the receiving end of high scores here on GameZone, I personally could not find much enjoyment in either the console titles or Power of Illusion on the 3DS. I absolutely loved the charm, music, and artistry of Epic Mickey 2, and I was deeply infatuated with the wonderful history that was being used as a basis for the games. When it came time to play these titles, however, I couldn't enjoy them. Not one bit, and I hated that that was the case.
Because I fear that Epic Mickey really can't deliver a solid experience as far as its gameplay is concerned, I personally don't want to see the series continue. Honestly, it sucks realizing and understanding that.

Episode 322
In this episode, Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss crimes against capital, financial blockades and hoax Op-eds. They also suggest that Boris Johnson may be the illegitimate step nephew of Louis XV and how all your financial opinions come from a warped fortune cookie written by some guy that just dropped massive tabs of acid. And they discuss this while minding their Second Amendment right to bear a shoulder launch missile. In the second half, Max interviews Birgitta Jonsdottir about the need to form Pirate Parties around the world to protect privacy, democracy and stop financial blockades of certain groups for their beliefs and campaigns.

Metapod can play defense though. I'd say the Leafs 4th line is composed of Magikarps.
Medapods but think like Psyducks.
Why did the Leafs start the season so hot?
I think part of it was that there was no Orr an McLaren.
Now before you go thinking that I don't want toughness in the lineup…I liked the play of Devane and Broll in the preseason. Those guys are tough, but they are better hockey players than Orr and McLaren. Both Broll and Devane have goals in the AHL. Broll has 5 points already.
The guy lost in all of this is Sam Carrick. The guy has 9 points, +10 and is playing tough as nails in the AHL with 40 PIMs… 3 points in the last two games and a first star last game.
Bring up some guys from the Marlies. Maybe a line of Broll, Carrick and Lievo.
Plus give Liles and Brennan a shot.
If you have a good farm team….use it!
Agreed. There are some elements there for pretty interesting fourth line. They'll make mistakes, but may compensate with energy and should learn..

Ritter, Satti discuss issues in debate before 20th District Democratic primary
Waterford — Near the end of Tuesday night's Democratic primary debate in the 20th state Senate District, the moderator asked the candidates where they differ.
"That's the toughest question of the night," New London Democratic Town Chairman Bill Satti, the challenger for the nomination, said. "There's not a lot of difference between us."
Both he and state Rep. Betsy Ritter, the party-endorsed candidate who's seeking to move to the Senate after five terms in the House, would do what's best for the district, Satti said.
Ritter said there's one big difference, though.
"I do believe I will be a very effective state senator," she said, standing before a crowd of more than 150 people packed into a meeting room at Waterford Public Library. "After 10 years as a legislator, I have a proven record. I've accomplished things legislatively.
"I believe very firmly that I'm the candidate that brings the best opportunity to get things done."
Satti is challenging Ritter for the nomination in a primary next Tuesday.
While Ritter recounted her legislative successes in such areas as access to health care, support for results-based accountability in budgeting and protections for victims of sexual assault on college campuses, Satti recalled his efforts to control New London's budget and preserve services as chairman of the City Council's Finance Committee in the 1990s.
"My expertise is working on budgets, crunching numbers," he said.
The candidates took turns responding to voters' questions read aloud by moderator Marilyn Mackay, president of the League of Women Voters of Southeastern Connecticut, frequently agreeing with one another. Under a "cumulative timing" format, each candidate had the floor for a total of 24 minutes.
Satti said he would support the installation of tolls on Interstate 95, which cuts through much of the 20th District. The district comprises Bozrah, East Lyme, Montville, New London, Old Lyme, Old Saybrook, Salem and Waterford. Tolls should be seen as a way to regulate traffic and generate revenue for highway-related improvements, he said.
"The money goes back into infrastructure, not the General Fund," Satti said.
Ritter said she agreed.
In regard to job creation, Satti said the state Department of Economic and Community Development should be more aggressive in recruiting small businesses from other states. Ritter touted her work to bring Connecticut's licensing and certification of trained workers into line with that of other states, her support of entrepreneurial networks and efforts to prepare veterans for jobs that utilize skills they learned in the military.
The questions also covered such issues as taxes and the state's deficit, which Ritter noted has been significantly reduced over the past four years.
"Many of the things we did worked," she said, referring to the legislature. "We took a balanced approach that involved raising taxes. I voted for it (raising taxes), but I would be extremely reluctant to do it again."
Satti said he would tackle the deficit by curtailing funding for "earmarks," like the $400,000 a year the legislature approved for the Amistad America organization. He also said more of the revenue the southeastern Connecticut-based tourism industry generates should stay in the region.
More of the gaming revenue Connecticut collects from the casinos should be returned to the state's towns, he said.
Satti was asked whether his job as director of public affairs for the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe, which owns Foxwoods Resort Casino, would cause him to remove himself from discussions about the state budget, leaving the region without a voice.
He noted that under the state's ethics law, he would only have to abstain from matters in which he had a personal financial interest.
Ritter said she gave considerable thought to giving up a chance to retain her deputy speakership in the House to run for the Senate seat, ultimately deciding she could have greater impact in the upper chamber.
"I can be very effective in the Senate because of my ability to form coalitions," she said.
The debate was sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Southeastern Connecticut and the library.

The Lipscomb Lady Bisons got back on the winning track Sunday in Conway, S.C. with a 5-2 win over Elon.
The win avenged a 7-6 loss to Elon Saturday at the Coastal Carolina Softball Complex.
The Lady Bisons pounded nine hits with Lauren Dortwegt, Heather Collins and Kellie Sirus each collecting a pair of hits. Collins had a double and Sirus slammed a two-run home run, her third in the two days. Leigh Little also slammed a double.
Freshman pitcher Christen Campbell pitched a complete game victory, her third of the season. She scattered seven hits, struck out six and walked one.
"It was another good outing by Christen," Coach Kristin Peck said. "She doesn't necessarily rely on speed. She is a movement pitcher. Her demeanor on the mound is that she is in charge. I still don't think we have seen her pitch as well as she can."
Little opened the game with double to right center. Dortwegt singled to shortstop moving Little to third. Julia Davidson knocked a sacrifice fly to center scoring Little. Collins followed with a double to left center scoring Dortwegt.
Elon came back to tie the game with two runs in the top of the second.
In the fifth Kellie Sirus hit a two-run home run to give the Lady Bisons a 4-1 lead.
"Kellie really started coming on strong at the end of the fall," Peck said. "She picked it up even more at the beginning of the spring. She has a smooth swing and has had a huge impact in our offense already this year."
In the sixth they added an insurance run when Jennifer Allsup scored on a singled to left field by Dortwegt.
"Elon is usually right in the middle of their conference," Peck said. "They are going to do well this season."

Eat'n Park Rocks! Elvis invades downtown Pittsburgh
We surprised pedestrians in downtown Pittsburgh today when our team of more than 20 Elvis impersonators flooded Gateway Center and other downtown hotspots to kick off our Eat'n Park Rocks promotion.

A group of Elvi makes quite a spectacle!
Smiley can rock with the best of them!

The TOSCA Final Dissemination Event will take place at Crown Plaza Brussels Airport the 22nd January 2016. Please click on the news title to download the Meeting Agenda.
TOSCA Project
Total Operation management for Safety Critical Activities
Over the recent past the accumulation of major mishaps, crises and accidents have made it clear that organizations must still improve their capabilities to address safety "not a stand-alone activity that is separate from the main activities and processes of the organization" but as an integrated part of critical project management. Further it is critical also to understand how weaknesses not only in the technical but also in the organizational interfaces can contribute to significant losses and major industrial accidents.
TOSCA (Total Operation Management for Safety Critical Activities) is concerned with the integration of industrial operations into a total performance management system so that concerns about safety, quality and productivity are addressed in an integrated way during life-cycle of a project or a product. The industrial domain of application regards process control industries (e.g., chemical industries, power generation, offshore oil & gas platforms, etc.) that may vary in size, regulatory and cultural aspects. TOSCA will examine vulnerabilities of the technical, human and organizational systems that may have an impact in safety, quality and productivity. Safety critical activities can be seen as 'projects' or 'safety cases' that must be examined from the perspectives of many stakeholders (e.g., different departments, subcontractors, regulatory authorities, etc) and decision-making at different organizational levels (e.g., top managers, supervisors and operators). A participative approach is required that should collect knowledge from the sharp-end operators and integrate it with formal descriptions of how the system works and how responses should be coordinated across the whole organisation. Furthermore, TOSCA should enhance the management of changes and provide a facility for testing out the effectiveness of the possible action plan devised.

Water and fountains are ever-present at the Generalife
Water and fountains are ever-present at the Generalife
A garden that will leave all your senses in ecstasy, alongside a fairy-tale palace. Can you imagine it? This incredible place really does exist - you can find it in Granada. These are the Moorish gardens of the Generalife, alongside the monumental buildings of the Alhambra, which have the UNESCO World Heritage designation. This oasis in Andalusia is Spain's most visited monument. Would you like to come and discover it?
Like a Sultan in the Garden of Eden: this is how you will feel in southern Spain, strolling around the Generalife Palace in Granada. No visit to this city in Andalusia is complete without a visit to these famous Moorish gardens: a unique, luxuriant place which was designed to be an earthly paradise. This was, at least, the idea behind it. In Moorish culture the notion of heaven was closely linked with the concept of the garden. What is for sure is that beauty and harmony reign supreme at the Generalife. Everything seems to delight the senses as you explore: the whisper of running water, the reflections of light, the perfume of aromatic plants, the delicate décor of the palace, the colour of the flowers… There is no hurry. Take your time to enjoy every corner, to savour the sensations and let the evocative atmosphere of al-Andalus surround you.
The royal holiday palace
With the mountains of Sierra Nevada providing a spectacular backdrop, the Generalife was a holiday estate used by the kings of the Nasrid dynasty. Its vegetable gardens also supplied the kitchens of the Alhambra with produce. This was where the monarchs came in search of peace and privacy. Even the simple ornamental décor of the palace seems to underline this desired atmosphere of retreat.
Visits to the Generalife are included with entrance to the Alhambra complex, although it is really an independent area whose construction began in the 13th century. The Cypress Promenade leads from the Alhambra to the area of the Generalife Palace. On the way you pass the Lower Gardens and the open air theatre which is now venue for the Granada International Festival of Music and Dance, to get to the Generalife's most emblematic site: the Acequia Patio. This is a real fairy-tale setting where you can stop and listen to the music provided by criss-crossed water jets, and stroll down the long corridor that runs alongside: it was built in the Christian period and its arches offer stunning views. From the palace viewpoint there is a different perspective. You may well be surprised by the low level of the windows. They were designed in this way to be able to admire the view while sitting on the floor, as is the norm in the Arab world.
Nevertheless, this is not the only place you should see here: you have yet to see the beautiful capitals and plasterwork of the Palace rooms; the legendary, charming, hidden La Sultana Patio; the rose bushes and jasmines that scent the Upper Gardens; the unusual Water Staircase, with its relaxing sound; Las Adelfas Promenade, with its beautiful views of the Alhambra.
When you finally leave the gardens of the Generalife you may be surprised to feel happiness and nostalgia at the same time. Don't worry, this is to be expected: you have just left an earthly "paradise" - but you can come back whenever you want.

- Year
- 1983
Guy Lafleur and Steve Shutt get landmark goals in same game
On December 20, 1983, ice hockey stars Guy Lafleur and Steve Shutt of the Montreal Canadiens score their 500th and 400th career goal, respectively, in a 6-0 rout of the New Jersey Devils at Byrne Meadowlands Arena in New Jersey.
Revered for his offensive game and considered one of the best right wings of all time, Lafleur played a total of 17 years–from 1971 to 1985 with the Canadiens and from 1988 to 1991 with the New York Rangers and the Quebec Nordiques–in the National Hockey League (NHL). With the Canadiens, he became the first player in NHL history to score at least 50 goals and 100 points in six consecutive seasons. Also a prolific scorer, Shutt joined the team at left wing in 1972 and contributed to that year's Stanley Cup win alongside Lafleur and center Pete Mahovlich. Led by Lafleur and Shutt, the Habs enjoyed a four-year Stanley Cup run from 1976 through 1979.
During the game against the Devils on December 20, 1983, Shutt took a pass from Ryan Walter in the second period and faked Devils' goalkeeper Glenn Resch to the right to score his 400th career goal and put Montreal up 3-0. Lafleur scored his own milestone goal at 8:34 into the third period, taking a rising shot from about 30 feet away to beat Resch. With the shot, Lafleur became only the 10th player in the history of the NHL (founded in 1917) to score 500 goals.
Shutt left Montreal for the Los Angeles Kings early in the 1984-5 season, but retired at the end of that year with a career total of 424 goals. Lafleur also retired that year, in a ceremony held before 18,000 fans at the Montreal Forum. In 1988, he decided to return to the ice, becoming only the second player since Gordie Howe to continue playing after being inducted into the Hall of Fame. He retired for good in 1991 and took a front-office job in the Canadiens organization. Shutt was elected to the Hall himself in 1993, and has worked as a television commentator and an assistant coach for the Canadiens.
