Resident Evil 7, Yakuza 0, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8, more added to PS Store
It's a big week for the PlayStation Store as developers and publishers plan to add more than a dozen new games to the digital storefront this week…
Let's start things off with Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, the latest game in Capcom's long-running zombie saga. Resident Evil 7 promises to switch things up on the PS4 and many of the franchise's most familiar characters won't make an appearance in the game. However, there is a deranged family of cannibals to deal with, and full PlayStation VR support for the first-person horror title.
PS4 owners interested in a different sort of wild ride might want to look into Yakuza 0, which will travel back to the beginnings of Sega's gangland tale. Players will learn all about how Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima got their start in the Yakuza, and they'll experience the "unbridled decadence" of Tokyo in the 1980s.
Also available this week is a trio of RPGs that will most likely offer more uplifting stories. Square Enix has remade Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance (previously a 3DS exclusive) for the PS4 as Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8: Final Chapter Prologue. Bandai Namco will expand the Tales series with the pirate-themed PS4 adventure Tales of Berseria. And Snowcastle Games will bring their retro-inspired RPG, Earthlock: Festival of Magic, to the PS4 later this week.
More information on all of these games can be found after the break. (more…)
New Retail Releases: Resident Evil 7, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8, Yakuza Zero, More
We're finally kicking off 2017 in style with a big batch of new releases that'll be available to purchase this week…
Capcom will resurrect the Resident Evil franchise once again with Resident Evil 7: Biohazard for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Utilizing a brand new first-person perspective (and PlayStation VR support on the PS4), the latest Resident Evil game will mark a fresh start for the series.
Also available this week is Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8: Final Chapter Prologue, a high definition remake of Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, which was originally released for the 3DS in 2012. The PS4-exclusive package will also include a movie-length retelling of mobile title Kingdom Hearts Unchained X and a brand new epilogue to Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep.
Speaking of prologues, Sega will go back to the beginning of the Yakuza series and reveal the story of how Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima originally climbed the ranks of the crime syndicate in Yakuza Zero for the PS4. Players will be able to battle it out with rival gangs, or indulge in "all the vices 1988's Japan had to offer."
You won't find any gangsters in Bandai Namco's Tales of Berseria, but you will find plenty of pirates in the PS4 RPG. The latest game in the Tales franchise will star Velvet, a young woman who has to defeat her own inner demons while sailing the seven seas of Midgand in search of adventure.
Finally this week, Milestone will release Moto Racer 4, another motorcycle racer, for the PS4 and Xbox One.

Bandai Namco officially announces a US release for Tales of Berseria
Six months after the debut of its Japanese announcement, Bandai Namco is finally ready to confirm that Tales of Berseria will also be released in North America for the PC and PS4. There's still no release date for the next Tales title, but we do know it'll be the first game in the series to feature a female main character:
In Tales of Berseria players embark on a journey as they assume the role of Velvet, a young woman whose once gentle nature has been replaced and overcome with a festering anger and hatred after a traumatic experience three years prior to the events within Tales of Berseria imbued her left hand with a special ability. Velvet will visit a wide range of breathtaking environments as she travels the world in an all-new adventure developed by the celebrated team behind the Tales of series. Along her journey, Velvet will meet a whole cast of characters, including a young boy named Laphicet. If Velvet is the embodiment of "darkness," then Laphicet is created in the image of "light" and will be an important ally to Velvet.
While Bandai Namco is being rather secretive about Tales of Berseria, the publisher did reveal a new trailer at this weekend's Jump Festa, which has been embedded above. They also said that they've recruited several Tales veterans (Mutsumi Inomata, Kosuke Fujishima, Minoru Iwamoto, and Daigo Okumura) to create the characters and creatures for the game.
First Tales of Berseria Japanese-language trailer released by Bandai Namco
Gamers got their first look at the next entry in the Tales series, Tales of Berseria, over the weekend when Bandai Namco released the game's first Japanese-language trailer.
As of right now, there's not much to go on. The trailer cuts through a number of different locales including a wintry village, a sunny beach, a dense forest, and the high seas. The final image before the title card is that of a determined-looking dark-haired woman.
Tales of Berseria is currently in development for the PS4 and PS3, though a North American/European launch date hasn't been announced. However, Bandai Namco has a good reason, it doesn't have a release date in Japan either.
Posted in News, PS3, PS4 Tagged Tales of Berseria
The next Tales game will be Tales of Berseria for the PS3, PS4
Bandai Namco hosted the annual Tales of Festival this past weekend, and used the convention to announce the next game in the long-running RPG franchise. The next Tales game will be titled Tales of Berseria and it will be released for the PS3 and PS4 sometime in the not so distant future. According to Destructoid, the main character will be a woman named Velvet, but that's about all we know. Bandai Namco also opened up an official website for the game, but aside from a nifty logo, it's currently pretty bare.
The publisher probably isn't ready to say much about Tales of Berseria because the most recent game in the series, Tales of Zestiria, still hasn't been released in North America or Europe. It's been available in Japan since January, but the rest of the world will have to wait until sometime this Fall.
A western release for Tales of Berseria wasn't announced, but Bandai Namco has been very interested in widening the franchise's popularity outside of Japan, so it's probably only a matter of time.

Dukan Beef Recipe Ideas – Attack Phase Approved
One of the great things about the Dukan Diet is that you are allowed to eat delicious lean meats in unlimited quantity. The diet is a meat lovers dream. The first category in the allowed foods list is lean meats. You are allowed veal and beef. All roasts or grilled beef including steaks, tenderloin, roast beef, and sirloin. You do need to stay away from ribs and rib eye cuts as they are too fatty. You can also eat veal escalopes and roast veal. Veal cutlets are okay as long as you trim the fat from the veal.
Steak recipes are available in the Dukan Diet Recipe book. You are also encouraged to create your own meat and beef recipes for the diet. In addition to steaks, there are exceptional meatloaf, meatball recipes and various veal recipes for your attack menu.
If you like tri-tip steaks, try this delicious beef recipe.
Dominique's Sear-Roasted Sirloin Tri-Tip Steaks with Chive "Butter" – Dukan friendly
3 Sirloin tri-tip steaks 3/4 to 1 inch thick
Coarse salt
1/2 bunch of chives coarsely chopped
4 Tbsp virtually fat-free cream cheese, fromage frais or quark
1/4 tsp Dijon mustard
1/8-1/4 tsp fresh lemon juice
Freshly ground pepper (preferably white and black peppercorn)
Lightly sprinkle the steaks with coarse salt and lightly cover and refrigerate for 8 hours to overnight.
Make the chive "butter": Pound the chives with a dash of salt in a large mortar to get a coarse paste. (You can also use a food processor). Place the non-fat fromage frais in a bowl. Add the chives, lemon juice and stir until evenly incorporated in the butter. Stir in the pepper and add a touch of salt to taste. Scrape the non-fat dairy chive mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper or wax paper. Fold it up and wrap it rolling it into a log shape. Twist the ends of the paper in the opposite direction to seal it. Chill the chive fromage frais log for several hours or until solid.
For steak:
Place under broiler or on grill and grill/sear for a few minutes at very high heat. After 2-3 minutes depending on thickness of the steak once you have some grill marks or a nice sear -flip them over and put the steaks into the preheated oven and roast for an additional 3 minutes more. Rest the steaks for a few minutes more. Transfer the beef to a platter and top each with a pat or two of the chive "butter". Let them rest for a few minutes. Serve with an additional small sliver of chive quark if desired.
Makes 3 steaks
If you are looking for a beef recipe that is a little spicy, the next one is one from the Dukan Diet cookbook. You will want to have as many protein recipes in your repertoire as possible. Dukan advises you to not get hungry so you will want to have easy to grab things on hand such as lean cold cuts with no added sugar or ingredients. Roast beef is a perfect choice.

UConn's ready for another game of name that quarterback
Updated 12:17 am, Saturday, September 10, 2011
As his team prepared for its first road game of the season, Saturday night's matchup in Nashville against Vanderbilt, UConn football coach Paul Pasqualoni was asked if he'd prefer to be settled on a starting quarterback by now.
The answer was, well, of course.w
"Yeah, there is a point. I would have liked to make that decision about three or four months ago," Pasqualoni said. "As soon as it's clear, we'll go in that direction."
But after a spring and summer of intense competition, not to mention a Week 1 romp in which everyone had a chance to play, the Huskies' situation is obviously not clear.
As the Huskies (1-0) hit the road for SEC country, they did so with their three "starting" quarterbacks in tow: regulars Johnny McEntee and Mike Nebrich along with wildcat Scott McCummings.
Pasqualoni spoke this week about finalizing some of the position battles still raging on his offense, especially at quarterback -- though that choice would likely be between McEntee and Nebrich, with McCummings still getting a few plays here and there. Pasqualoni, about to coach his first road game in his new job, also talked about what he's looking for.
Latest Sports Video
Pasqualoni said his ideal quarterback is someone like Aaron Rodgers, though he admitted he'd settle for a Drew Brees. It's not as if he's expecting either to walk through the door to the Burton Complex.
"Great quarterbacks are hard to find," Pasqualoni said. "If we could find one off those... if any of you guys see one of those, give us a call quick. We'll take that guy in a heartbeat."
If nothing else, McEntee is the UConn quarterback Vanderbilt (1-0) has the most film of. Yes, he took the majority of the snaps in the Huskies' opening romp over Fordham, but there's more. The junior walk-on, who has seemingly assured himself of a scholarship this season, was the star of a trick shot video that became a YouTube hit this summer.
"I was kidding with him during the week that we were going to put Dominoes signs up and throw plates in the air during practice, and that he could aim for those," offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead said.
Now that he's experienced starting a college football game as well as making a playful highlight reel, McEntee realizes which is more difficult.
"College football game," McEntee said. "The YouTube video was my friends. They're good with cameras. That wasn't me. ... There's not a defense right in your face. And no do-overs, no mulligans."
The UConn coaches, too, obviously don't have a chance to restart the season if their quarterback choice flops.
Perhaps that's why they're taking extra time to single out one player. Moorhead, who previously coached at Akron, Georgetown and Pittsburgh, admits it's the first time he's tried to prepare so many quarterbacks for action.
"I have been through an experience where I've played two in a game and prepared two, but never three," Moorhead said. "From a coaching standpoint you have to coach all three guys on the field and in the meeting room as if they're going to be the starter.
"It varies a little bit for Scott because he knows his package of plays is predetermined," Moorhead added. "But, worst-case scenario he would have to go in."
Pasqualoni said when he was at Syracuse, everyone was eager for the Orange to find the next Donovan McNabb. He joked that on his first day of work with the Dallas Cowboys, fellow staffers were hoping to develop the next Troy Aikman.
And during his recent stint in Miami? Well, everyone knows the Dolphins haven't exactly landed the next Dan Marino.
Finding the next Dan Orlovsky for UConn apparently isn't any easier, though at least the Huskies could be closer to simply having a starter after this week.
"There's nothing like playing in games to develop skills at the quarterback position," Pasqualoni said.
"Hopefully, we'll see a little bit more this week. Hopefully, we'll take another step this week."

The Yankees beat the Blue Jays 6-1 in Toronto last night behind a strong performance from their ace CC Sabathia to clinch at least a wild-card spot in the American League.
Here are some highlights:
- The Yankees drove in all 6 runs without the benefit of a hit, 3 sac flies, a pair of ground out RBI's, and a bases loaded walk.
- Derek Jeter and Brett Gardner were the only hitters with at least 2 hits.
- Sabathia's line: 8.1 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 8 K, 1 HR. Literally his only mistake was the home run to Travis Snider in the 3rd.
- Mariano Rivera came in and got the final 2 outs.
- Before the game manager Joe Girardi participated in batting practice and drilled a homer on his final pitch.
- The Yankees remain a half game behind the Rays for 1st place in the AL East.
- If they don't overcome the Rays, their likely playoff opponent will be the Minnesota Twins.
So the Yankees are now in the playoffs officially. They will still try for the division, but are going to set themselves up for the playoffs as well. That means Andy Pettitte doesn't start tonight, Javier Vazquez will instead. Some of the regulars might get some rest as well.

Vice President Al Gore, here on a 24-hour whirlwind visit, had pledged the American government's "iron-clad commitment to Israel's security and well-being as Israel takes risks for peace."
Gore arrived Monday night in Israel after a brief visit to Egypt, where he discussed the Syrian peace track with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.
Less than three hours after touching down at Ben-Gurion Airport, the vice president was feted at a state dinner at the Knesset.
On Tuesday, Gore's packed schedule included a working session with Prime Minister Shimon Peres and Foreign Minister Ehud Barak, a visit to the grave of slain Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and a meeting in Jericho with Palestine Liberation Organization Chairman Yasser Arafat and leading Palestinian businessmen.
Although it did not appear on the official White House news release spelling out Gore's itinerary, the vice president also paid a condolence call to Leah Rabin and met with the families of Israel's missing soldiers.
During a joint news conference after their session, a smiling Peres said, "We discussed everything dry or wet – we discussed irrigated as well [as water rights]. For us it was a highly encouraging meeting."
Gore said he had come to Israel to "again affirm the unswerving commitment of the American people and of President Clinton to work with you to achieve peace between Israel and Syria, and between Israel and Lebanon; and to achieve a comprehensive peace that will end Arab-Israeli conflict."
In an obvious allusion to upcoming national elections in both Israel and the United States, Gore said, "Although time is short, I am convinced that with courage, creativity and commitment we can achieve a breakthrough this year."
In addition to the peace process, Gore also fielded question on American ties with Tunisia, the U.S. budget standoff and Jonathan Pollard, the American Jew serving a life sentence for spying for Israel.
Asked to confirm or deny rumors that President Clinton has turned down Pollard's request for clemency, Gore said the issue "has not reached the president's desk."
"The process now under way has not yet produced a recommendation," he said. "When that process has been concluded, he will examine it. At his point it is premature."
In addition, the vice president denied that he had canceled a planned stopover in Tunisia after that country failed to open an interest section in Israel.
"I have had a very productive and constructive dialogue with the Tunisian leadership," Gore said, adding that he would have flown Tuesday to Tunisia, but that he needed to return to Washington for budget talks.
With a laugh, Gore continued, "You know our government runs out of money again the 26th of this month. It's embarrassing."
Taking his cues from the vice president, Peres chimed in, "You can use some foreign aid."

Insane Clown Posse festival to move from Ill. site
Updated 4:43 pm, Monday, December 2, 2013
Organizers of an outdoor festival headlined by the rap-metal group Insane Clown Posse are finding new digs for the event after six years of staging it in southern Illinois, and the sheriff couldn't be happier.
A spokesman for suburban Detroit-based Psychopathic Records Inc., promoters of the annual Gathering of the Juggalos, confirmed to The Associated Press on Monday that the spectacle won't be held at the site near Cave-In-Rock, a Hardin County village along the Ohio River. But Jason Webber declined to elaborate, including about where the festival would be relocated or why the location was being changed.
"We should be announcing all that in the foreseeable future," Webber said.
The five-day concert, which each year has drawn tens of thousands of people, also has developed a reputation for unruliness marked by drug overdoses, fights, arrests and the deaths of some Juggalos, by which Insane Clown Posse fans are known.
In 2010, fans pelted reality TV actress Tila Tequila with stones, bottles and feces, and authorities said that event also involved one man stabbing another. One attendee drowned the following year while trying to swim in the Ohio River. And this year, a 24-year-old fan, Cory Collins of Harrisburg, Ill., was found dead on the festival's grounds, and dozens of attendees were arrested on drug-related and disorderly conduct charges.
The yearly gathering has been a recurring headache for Sheriff Jerry Fricker, given the overtime his department has been forced to shell out for deputies to help monitor and control the crowds.
Fricker said the event also has been a drain on the local ambulance service and the county's small hospital, where he said Juggalos taken there for treatment often aren't carrying identification or give the medical staff aliases so the patients couldn't be billed.

Golden State Warriors: The Case for Starting Kent BazemoreSeptember 13, 2012
There's been a ton of speculation about who this season's Golden State Warriors' starter at small forward will be. I won't belabor what's already been extensively chronicled, except to say that the primary candidates for the position are rookie Harrison Barnes, Richard Jefferson and Brandon Rush. There's a decent argument for all three.
But there is also a decent case for dark horse starter Kent Bazemore.
Bazemore made the Warriors on the strength of an eye-opening summer league performance Golden State simply couldn't ignore. He was everywhere—using his seven-foot wingspan and quick feet to hound ball handlers and tip passes. Bazemore rejected an incredible seven shots against the Chicago Bulls, most of which came on soaring help-side leaps.
Bazemore's defensive pedigree is unquestioned. He won the Lefty Driesell Award in 2011 as the NCAA's best defensive player. If his summer league performance is any indication, he knows that his best chance to carve out an NBA career is by fashioning himself into a bona fide stopper on the wing.
And that's why the Warriors should be thinking about starting him.
If Golden State is serious about becoming a championship contender (and the moves they've made over the last year certainly indicate they are), they ought to be looking at what other championship teams are doing.
The Oklahoma City Thunder start defensive specialist Thabo Sefolosha over James Harden—not because Sefolosha is a better overall player than Harden is, but because he's an elite defender. His lockdown defense keeps opposing wings from getting off to hot starts, often derailing their offensive games right from the jump ball.
For the same reason, Shane Battier started for the Miami Heat last year.
In fact, the more you look around at championship contenders, the more often you see defensive specialists starting on the wing. Danny Green started over Manu Ginobili for the Spurs last season because of his defense, and Tony Allen got the nod over O.J. Mayo in Memphis.
It's clear that the NBA's good teams have figured something out, and anybody paying attention to the league over the years knows it, too—if a team has an elite wing defender, he should start.
There are a handful of positive ripple-effects to this strategy as well. It allows capable scorers to come in off the bench against the opponent's second unit. That's certainly been a benefit to James Harden and Manu Ginobili over the years. Imagine how it could make life easier on Harrison Barnes, who wouldn't have to deal with the pressure of starting as a rookie.
Plus, Barnes showed that he is capable of leading a group of bench players throughout the Las Vegas Summer League. He'd have the opportunity to do that as Bazemore's relief.
Before anyone starts shouting about Bazemore being undersized at the small forward, relax. He proved in college and during summer league that he's more than capable of guarding any wing position. With Klay Thompson's size and athletic limitations making him a candidate to slide to small forward down the road anyway, Bazemore could simply attach himself to the opposing shooting guard or small forward—giving Thompson the easier matchup, regardless of size.
There are certainly arguments against giving Bazemore the starting nod. It might rub Barnes the wrong way, for one thing. Veterans Richard Jefferson and Brandon Rush (who's already mentioned he wants to start) might take offense to an undrafted rookie beating them out of a role. Maybe Bazemore won't have the defensive success he enjoyed during college. Who knows?
But there's just no getting around the fact that most of the NBA's elite teams have (and start) a player like Bazemore—a guy they don't expect to score or finish games. Instead, they toss him out there to make life hard on opposing stars and set the defensive tone for the game.
Realistically, Bazemore's a long shot to start for the Warriors this year. But if Golden State really wants to become an elite organization with championship aspirations, they'd do well to at least consider the possibility.

Understand Turn-of-Cloth
Get the latest including tips, techniques and special offers straight to your inbox.
by Judy Barlup
from Threads #131, pp. 71-76
Place two identically sized fabrics one on top of the other, then roll, bend, or fold them. The top layer appears shorter than the bottom layer and once identical edges no longer match. This is because of the turn-of-cloth- simply put, an outer curved layer is slightly longer than an inner curved layer. To compensate for the curve, you need to adjust the size of the fabric layers before you start sewing. I'll show you how to determine the amount of extra fabric needed to keep your edges matching and where to add it.
Beautifully fine-tuned lapel edges rely on adequate turn-of-cloth.
In sewing, many parts of a garment can be influenced by the turn-of-cloth- center front edges, cuffs, pocket flaps, to name a few- but it's most obvious in rolled collars and lapels, so those are the examples I'll use to explain how the turn-of-cloth works.
Every fabric has different turn-of-cloth requirements. The heavier the fabric, the more turn-of-cloth is required. For the best results, calculate the amount to allow for turn-of-cloth based on the fabric you're using. Once you've applied turn-of-cloth considerations, see how this simple effort pays off.
Why does it matter?
On a beautifully sewn collar and lapel, the enclosed edges turn neatly under to the wrong side, and the seam is not visible from the "public side" (the side that shows when the garment is worn). If the turn-of-cloth isn't taken into consideration, the upper collar and lapel area of the front facing "steal" some fabric from the under collar and lapel, causing the seams to curl back to the public side.
When the layers are adjusted for the fabric's turn, the underlayer edge stays behind the outer edge. The sample at left shows layers meeting equally on the edge. The sample at right shows a longer fuchsia layer favoring what will become the "public" side.
Don't depend on patterns to supply the turn-of-cloth
On blouses and dresses with a rolled collar, commercial patterns generally have only one pattern piece for both the upper and under collar. Turn-of-cloth is not taken into consideration. Even though patterns for tailored jackets and coats often have separate pattern pieces providing extra turn-of-cloth fabric for upper and under collars, it's often not enough nor in the right places.
Some commercial patterns have a turn-of-cloth allowance built into their patterns, but make sure it's enough for the fabric you're using.
Most commercial patterns also don't provide turn-of-cloth fabric at the center back of the upper collar, where it is needed most. Shawl collars are notorious for this problem. Facing pattern pieces on tailored jackets and coats generally have some turn-of-cloth built in such as the lapel pattern shown at left, but you need to make sure it's enough for the fabric you're using.
Fabric choice makes a difference
Even the best patternmakers cannot predict what weight fabric you'll use for the pattern. While you're checking for the right turn-of-cloth, you can also find other pattern errors. I've actually found patterns with smaller upper-collar patterns, which is obviously a patternmaker's error and could lead to sewing disappointments.
Understanding turn-of-cloth, checking the pattern, and knowing how to adjust it for your particular fabric will improve the quality of your fashion sewing.
Begin by determining fabric amounts
Heavier fabric requires more fabric for the turn-of-cloth.
Let your fabric tell you how much is enough. Cut two equal rectangles of your fabric approximately the width of the collar at the center back and interface as you will the collar. Pin the layers together along one edge as shown below. Then roll them over your hand and measure the difference that occurs between the free edges. This is the amount needed for the correct turn-of-cloth for this specific fabric. Add this amount to the center back on the upper collar and at the center back of the neckline edge, tapering to zero at the front ends. On light- to medium-weight fabric, 1/8 inch difference between the upper and under collars is usually enough to ensure the enclosed seams stay turned under.
These two fabrics are the same size, but when one is curved over the other it appears smaller. The difference is the turn-of-cloth and the amount to trim from the underlayer.
Adjust the pattern for turn-of-cloth
Find the extra cloth your fabric needs by trimming the underlayer- here are two ways:
1. Cut the amount off the pattern. (If your pattern has an upper and under collar, cut two upper-collar pieces.) Use a rotary cutter with a gridded see-through ruler to trim 1/8 inch off three outside edges of one collar piece. Use this smaller piece as the under-collar pattern.
2. Cut the amount off the fabric. Use the upper-collar pattern piece to cut both the upper and under collars. Hold a see-through ruler 1/8 inch inside the cutting lines on the three outside edges and trim along the fabric edges. Do not reduce the neck edge.
Stitch a collar
Allow the feed dogs to ease the turn-of-cloth along the edges.
First, pin the edges as shown in the photos below, then stitch with the upper collar on the bottom to allow the feed dogs to ease in the excess fabric. If your machine has differential feed, disengage it since it works against you. Begin stitching at the neck edge, across the short end to the corner, easing the excess fabric as you sew. To keep the corners accurate and symmetrical, stitch off the end. Then stitch the other short end using the same principles, starting this time at the outer edge and stitching to the neck edge.
Align the center backs and pin together. Do not use any more pins. Let the feed dogs control the ease. Start at one end of the long outside edge and stitch to the other. Note: When applying the collar to the neck edge, I stitch directionally. But on the outside edges of the collar, it's more important to stitch with the larger piece against the feed dogs than to stitch directionally.
With right sides together and the under collar on top, match and pin the neck edge together.Force the outside edges to match on the short end and pin. Notice the excess fabric, which will accommodate the turn-of-cloth.Reinforce the corners: Set the stitch length to 1.5mm, and stitch on top of the previous stitching for 1/2 inch on either side of the corner. As you approach the corner, stop with the needle down, pivot, and take a couple of diagonal stitches across the corner, stop with the needle down, pivot, and stitch on top of the previous stitching for 1/2 inch.Remove the original stitching from the seam allowance in the corners. Note how the points of the collar turn up. This ensures that the points will turn down when you are wearing the garment.Press the seams open, grade, and turn the collar right side out. With the under collar facing up, steam the seams and mold the edges with your fingers so the seam is visible. (If you can see the seam when you are pressing it, the public won't be able to see it when you are wearing it.) Press the edges well.Fold the collar as it will lie on your body. Don't force the neck edges to match, but allow them to fall where they may. Baste the neck edges together. When applying the collar to the garment, use the outside edge as a guide for sewing. This collar application ensures that the seams will stay hidden. What a simple way to get a professional look!
Professional tip: Use a narrower seam allowance
I usually reduce seam allowances on enclosed seams and neck edges to 3/8 inch wide. This reduced seam allowance makes it easier to match the neckline and collar stitching lines without clipping into the neckline seam allowances. I can stitch faster and more accurately, as well as eliminate grading (trimming seam allowances to stagger the raw edge) entirely for lightweight fabrics and grade only one seam allowance for medium- to heavier-weight fabrics.
This is how I adjust for the 3/8-inch seam allowance and provide for turn-of-cloth all in one operation.
• Trace the upper collar to make a new under-collar pattern. Then remove 1/4 inch from the outside and the neck edges.
• On the upper collar, remove 1/8 inch from the three outside edges. Remove 1/4 inch from the neck edge.
• Cut the upper and under collars from your fabric.
• Check your work. Place the under collar on top of the upper collar with neck edges matching. Observe the difference. The upper collar should be 1/8 inch larger on the outside edges.
Modify facing on lapels
The same principles apply for front facings when lapels turn back. The facing needs to be larger than the front pattern piece.
Check the pattern by matching the collar termination point and the break point (the top button) of the facing and the front. There should be close to 1/8 inch difference at the corner of the lapel, tapering to zero at both the break point and collar termination point. If there isn't, add the required amount to your pattern as shown.
The corner of the lapel is just like the corner of a collar, so apply the facing in the same manner. Remember that the public side is the facing side from the top button up and the garment side from the button down. This facing is applied in two steps: From the break point down, stitch with the front against the feed dogs. Then, flip the garment and stitch from the break point up with the facing against the feed dogs.
Special considerations
For synthetics and densely woven fabrics that don't ease well, you might not be able to ease in all the excess at the front ends. If that is the case, trim as much as necessary from the upper collar at the front ends.
On this notched lapel, the contrasting public side shows up as a subtle line on the hidden side, ensuring the perfect turn-of-cloth.

5 Tips For Maintaining Your Smoker
With Smokeshow 2010 approaching I decided to break the Smoker out and make sure everything was in tip top shape. To my disappointment it wasn't. When I opened it up it looked like a scene from Avatar; Green and unreal. Mold had taken over my smoker (most likely due to all the grease)! To take care of this infestation I started up a blazing fire in the smoker and made sure not to stick around for the cloud of mold smoke engulfing my backyard.
After the flames settled I noticed all of the little modifications I had made on the smoker to make it the best it possibly could be at producing some of the most delicious BBQ ever. Then I got the idea, why not make a post about how to get the most out of your smoker?! There's no need to go out and buy the most expensive smoker with thick steal walls (to maintain heat); instead modify a cheaper one in order to produce gourmet results.
The smoker I am talking about is made by Chargriller and I believe the model is the Smokin Pro. The modifications and tips I am about to talk about are tailor fit to this particular brand of smokers but most brands share similar characteristics and basically everything can be applied to them.
Almost everything done to this smoker is related to controlling heat, which is very important when smoking meat. To low and you'll spend a whole day (not exaggerating) smoking a pork butt, and too hot will leave you with a dried up hunk of meat. The money spot is 225 degrees for most smoking applications.
The first thing to do when you purchase a smoker is to season it and plug all extra holes.
Next cover the inside of your smoker with tin foil. This provides no real benefits to the actual cooking process but it makes clean up MUCH quicker.
Controlling Heat in your Smoker – Fire Bricks
Fire bricks. Use these, or any other stone to maintain a constant temperature in your smoker. Once the bricks are heated they will help keep the temperature stable. If your fire dies down, the hot bricks will keep the temperature up, and if the fire gets too hot, the bricks will absorb some of that heat.
Stabilizing Heat in your Smoker – Smokestack
The next thing to do in order to maintain a constant temperature is to modify your smokestack. To do this you need to purchase a 3 inch diameter (or whatever diameter your smokestack is) flexible pipe which is usually used for drying machines. Attach this pipe to the smokestack (I used a pipe clamp) and run it down to the grill surface. Without this modification, smoke comes straight out of the firebox and shoots straight up and out of the smoker. This means uneven grill surface temperatures resulting in bad bbq! With the extended smokestack, smoke comes out of the firebox and fills the smoking chamber evenly and then exits slowly.
Dissipate the heat – Flip your Charcoal Pan
All of the heat comes from the side firebox which contains blazing hot coals and fire wood. Without this modification/tip, the meat on the firebox side of the grill will BURN and dry up. First you need to take the charcoal pan (see picture below) and flip it over while aligning it with the top of the hole to the firebox. Next take a strip of tinfoil and bridge the gap between the pan and firebox. Smoke will now come out of the firebox and will dissipate evenly around the charcoal pan. Even heat = good eats.
Controlling the fire – Charcoal Basket
When I first purchased the smoker I did not have charcoal baskets. Controlling the charcoal and firewood was a nightmare and inefficient. DEFFINITLY purchase or make charcoal baskets for your firebox. They keep everything neat and give you a more even fire. It also is a good idea to have a squirt bottle filled with water to control flare ups that result in bad heat spikes.
Monitoring the temperature – Electronic Thermometer
Now that you know how to maintain a constant temperature, how do you check that you have the right temp? Well, first off you definitely do NOT use the thermometer on the hood of the grill. They are usually inaccurate and who cares about the temp a 8 inches above your food?
The cheap solution is to simply purchase an oven thermometer and place it on the grill. If you want to get fancy, purchase a digital oven thermometer and place the probe through a potato to keep it slightly above the grill surface.
Lighting Charcoal – Charcoal Baskets
Last but not least, how do you light your charcoal? Most might say lighter fluid but no, never, BAD! Lighter fluid can impart a gasoline taste on your food when you use it to start your charcoal. Instead, use a chimney. They are cheap and ensure great tasting food. Simply fill the chimney with charcoal, stuff the bottom with paper and light. In 20 minutes you will have a stack of red hot charcoal.
Well, so there ya have it – some of the tips and tricks behind Smokeshows success. Hope this information is helpful and inspires you to get smoking! It may be intimidating at first but the results are definitely worth it.
If you have any more tips please leave a comment!

Alan Cockeram's medical licence now restricted by the College of Physicians and Surgeons
A Saint John doctor, who is now facing nine charges of sexual assault, can no longer see any female patients anywhere.
The College of Physicians and Surgeons of New Brunswick has imposed a temporary restriction on Dr. Alan Cockeram's medical licence, prohibiting him from treating any women at his private office in the city's north end.
The executive of the regulatory body for doctors decided during a conference call on Thursday "it would be in the public interest," while the matter is before the courts, said registrar Dr. Ed Schollenberg.
Cockeram, a 60-year-old gastroenterologist, was notified of the decision by a faxed letter, he said.
Medicare has also been notified. "The theory being doctors won't do things if they're not going to be paid for them," said Schollenberg.
If Cockeram were to breach the college's restriction by trying to bill Medicare for seeing a female patient at his office at 560 Main St., he would be penalized, Schollenberg said.
"It would be like driving while suspended, gets you into further trouble," he said.
The college's decision comes on the heels of the Horizon Health Network announcing Wednesday night that it had stripped Cockeram of his privileges to treat female patients at any of its facilities.
The restrictions against Cockeram, will remain in effect for an "undetermined amount of time," according to a statement issued by the regional health authority.
Cockeram, who has been working in the Saint John area for more than 25 years, has elected to be tried by judge and jury on the nine counts of sexual assault, which date back as far as 1987. A preliminary inquiry will be held on June 17.
Patients will be treated
Meanwhile, authorities will have to figure out how to deal with Cockeram's female patients, who may have been waiting to see him for some time, or may be scheduled for serious procedures, such as cancer-related tests, where early detection is key.
Horizon will "work with affected patients to manage their referral," spokeswoman Carol Cottrill stated in an email.
"If a patient has an immediate concern about their referral, they should contact their family physician directly," she said.
Cottrill could not say how long patients are currently waiting to see a gastroenterologist, but said those figures may be available by Friday.
There are three other gastroenterologists in the Saint John area as well as others across the province, according to the College of Physicians and Surgeons.
Some of Cockeram's patients may also be dealt with by general surgeons, said Schollenberg.
"From what we gather, anything that has any urgency to it can be dealt with without a great deal of delay," he said.
"Other patients may have some level of inconvenience, but at the end of the day, it's just felt this was the best way to go."
Ensuring patient safety
Although Cockeram is not an employee of Horizon and the alleged offences occurred at his private practice in the city's north end, "we believe it is important that the public is aware of the situation and feel we have taken the appropriate measures to ensure patient safety," the statement says.
Horizon issued the brief statement after learning eight new charges were laid against Cockeram in provincial court on Tuesday.
He was already facing one charge, which was laid last summer.
At that time, "safety measures were implemented to ensure Dr. Cockeram did not treat any female patients without another staff member in attendance," the Horizon statement says.
The College of Physicians and Surgeons has received complaints from at least six of Cockeram's female patients regarding "unnecessary or inappropriate examination," said Schollenberg.
It's unclear whether the nature of the charges before the courts are the same as the complaints filed with the college.
Reached at his office on Wednesday, Cockeram declined to comment.
None of the allegations have been proven in court. If convicted, he could face up to 10 years in prison.
Cockeram has been licensed to practise in New Brunswick since 1984. He obtained his medical degree from the University of Calgary in 1979.

While, Priyanka Chopra's performance in the movie Mary Kom has been receiving much accolades, some held the notion that an actress from north-east should have done the role.
However, the boxing champion based on whom the biopic was made, MC Mary Kom herself feels that Priyanka was the best choice and she has reasons to justify her opinion.
When asked whether filmmakers should have opted for a talent from the north-east rather than Chopra who does not have Mongoloid features like a Manipuri, Mary supported the producers who said that a mainstream Bollywood actress would make the movie a hit.
"Someone from the northeast could have played my role but then the movie might not have become a hit. Everyone knows Priyanka Chopra as she is a superstar and that is why the film is receiving so much attention. Had it not been her, the film would not have been a hit," Mary said.
The boxer who has been honoured with Padma Bhushan, Padma Shri and Arjuna Award, said no one in India knew her till she won the Olympics. "And after the film's release more people know me and also about the state of Manipur. So I feel very proud," Mary Kom added.
On whether all incidents of her life are reported accurately in the movie Mary Kom, she said, "It is a commercial film and based on my life. Most part of the story is the real story of my life".

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) – Fort Wayne is known for its rivers, and a new festival is showing them off. Riverpalooza made its debut Saturday afternoon at the Wells Street Bridge.
As one might expect, festival-goers enjoyed canoeing and kayaking. The Concordia Rowing Team even offered rides on the river.
Organizers said planning the event went smoothly thanks to all the community support.
"It's always a challenge the first time, so you never quite know how it's going to be, but the sponsors have been incredible because this is all done by sponsorships and there is no city money used and no taxpayer money," said Karen Richards, one of the event's organizers.
Live music lasted until 7 p.m., and food trucks offered up their tastiest treats for people to watch the TinCaps fireworks from the bridge.

Can't find your dog?
Call Columbia County Animal Services. The agency's manager, Linda Glasscock, practically grinds her teeth in frustration when she hears someone has lost a pet, yet waits several days before calling the shelter to see if the pet has been picked up.
"That really gets under my skin," she said. "If I lost my animal, the first place I would be is my local animal shelter."
Spreading the word in that regard is among her agency's ongoing challenges, Glasscock said, along with the continual push for people to spay or neuter their pets.
Lost pets are among the thousands of animals impounded each year by Animal Services and taken to its facility in Grovetown.
In 2012, about 5,000 animals wound up at the shelter, almost evenly divided between dogs (2,064) and cats (1,982), with another 930 that includes everything from trapped wild animals to wandering livestock, according to Animal Services records.
Of the 4,977 animals impounded, 416 were returned to their owners – an increase of 100 compared to 2011. Another 622 of them were adopted, also an increase of 100 compared to 2011.
The remainder of those impounded animals, 1,912, were euthanized at the county shelter and cremated in one of the agency's two furnaces. That's an increase of 133 from 2011. The largest number, 693, were put down for medical reasons, while 585 were euthanized because of aggressive behavior that made them unadoptable. Another 232 were trapped wild animals killed because of their ability to carry rabies, Glasscock said.
The remaining 402 were euthanized because the facility lacked the space to keep them, including animals who were kept the minimum five days at the facility and then put down soon after.
The agency softened that policy when it moved from Appling two years ago to the larger Grovetown shelter. Animals now are kept much longer if there is space available and there are realistic prospects for their adoption.
"We have some animals who have been here four or five months," Glasscock said.
That change particularly pleases local pet rescue groups. As the economy declined, their adoption numbers slowed and the number of people willing to foster pets in their homes dwindled. That made it more difficult for the rescues to take in adoptable pets from Animal Services, which gives them free to registered agencies.
"The economy has gotten everybody, and people are turning (pets) in right, left and in-between," said Nancy Bobbitt, president of the Columbia County Humane Society. "Everybody is just full, and there's not as many foster homes, either. It's unfortunate."
Adding to the overpopulation is that Georgia, like most states in the South, doesn't mandate sterilization, said Barbara Gleitsmann, who heads Happy Tails Rescue in Appling. State officials won't even discuss it, she said.
"It's frustrating," she said. "In other areas of the country, they're importing animals from the South because they don't have enough pets."
With limited shelter space and fewer pets being adopted, that makes it all the more important to call Animal Services when a pet disappears, Glasscock said. Not only could a lost pet be euthanized if not claimed within the minimum five days, but charges rack up for each day a pet is housed in the shelter.
To help return missing pets, the agency last year started inserting microchips in all adopted animals. Animal Services now offers microchip clinics each week where pet owners can pay to have their pets implanted with the electronic tags, Glasscock said.
The costs is $15, and the clinics are held 9 to 11 a.m. Tuesdays and 1 to 3 p.m. Thursdays. Animal Services is located at 1940 William Few Parkway in Grovetown, near Grovetown High School.
To check on a missing pet or see adoptable animals, go to the Animal Services page on the county Web site at www.columbiacountyga.gov, or call (706) 541-4077.

Street Machine are planing on giving the Little River event a decent write up in the December issue. The journalist Greg Conway has interviewed a lot of the replica owners and those who organised the event to get the story. Full credit to him as I know he has gone to a lot of trouble to check and double check his facts. Look out for some of the great photos they wil be using, all thanks to Daved!
So much effort went into the event it is cool that some recognition will be given in such a largely circulated magazine and that the article has been treated with respect. Now hopefully it comes out as it sounds as though it will.
30 years on and it i bigger than ever.

As with the other vintages of C.Larose, this 2004 is full of earthy aromas and bombs the palate with leather and dark fruit...I simply adore this wine..You can't beat it for the price-its an exceptional value at 20 us dollars and honestly i would have paid 35 or more for a treasure like this..Buy every bottle you can get your hands on
First night opened: nose of earth and herbs; second night after vacuum-sealing and re-opening: "barnyard" aromas yielding to anise. Both times: moderate-high tannins, moderate acidity, light fruit, lingering finish with an earthy taste like on the front.
Just received from neighbor after taking care of their dog fo a few days. Not opened yet

Each plot and grape variety are independently made into wine in a temperature-regulated vathouse, offering our oenologists the opportunity to create complex blends. Rigorously controlled, alcoholic fermentation, and twice daily pumping over take place over a five-to seven-day period. When the alcoholic fermentation has come to a close, vatting follows its course for 2 to 3 weeks so as to extract the tannins from the marc. After careful tasting the wine is run off. Finally, malolactic fermentation which is left to occur in tanks immediately after running off, brings the wine-making process to an end. In early January, the wine is transferred to wood casks. In the quiet atmosphere of the ageing cellar, the barrels endow the wine with vital ingredients, while exposing it to tiny quantities of oxygen. This has an effect on the wine's colour and its tannins, producing a well-balanced, very elegant wine.

Dow High wins after celebrating 40th anniversary of program
Published 11:57 am, Thursday, December 1, 2016
After celebrating Dow High hockey's past, the Chargers got a good start on the future with a 5-0 win over the Bay Area Thunder on Wednesday at the Midland Civic Arena.
Following a pregame ceremony that marked the 40th anniversary of Chargers' hockey, senior captain Josh Storer scored just 13 seconds into the game to set the tone in the shutout win.
"We're gelling really well as a team," Storer said after the Chargers improved to 1-1. "We've just got to pick up our effort a little bit. We're a really young team this year, so we just have a lot to work on before we're really ready. But so far, we're looking pretty good."
Sophomore Shane Astrike scored 11:15 into the first period to pad Dow's lead to 2-0.
Power-play goals by junior Casey LaRue and sophomore Joey Johnson less than two minutes apart in the middle of the second period gave the Chargers some breathing room with a 4-0 lead.
Senior Brendan Holbrook scored about seven minutes into the third period to cap the scoring.
Dow coach Dick Blasy said his team, which hadn't played since the season opener 13 days earlier, started out shaky but improved as the game went along.
"I think after we got that first goal early, we stopped moving our feet, and usually, you're more likely to get called for a penalty when you stop moving your feet," Blasy noted after seeing his team commit two penalties late in the first period and one early in the second. " ... But all in all, I thought the boys got better as the game went on. I thought our best period was the third period."
Junior Brendan Sanders had three assists for Dow. Holbrook added two, and Jack Kivi, Jon Baillargeon and Astrike each had one assist.
Dow junior goalie Seamus Belisle turned aside all 13 Bay Area shots, while Dow put 33 shots on Thunder netminder Vasili Ioannidis.
"He didn't have to make too many saves, but he made a lot of important saves for us," Blasy said of Belisle. "There were times when the Thunder was outplaying us, and if they (had scored) a goal, then their whole (confidence would have gone up). Seamus did a nice job of never allowing them to believe."
Bay Area is a co-op team made up of students from Essexville Garber, Pinconning, Bay City John Glenn and Bay City All Saints. The Thunder, who lost 9-2 to Midland High on Monday, will be in the same regional as Dow and Midland at the end of the season.
The Chargers travel to the west side of the state for challenging games against Muskegon Mona Shores on Friday and Grand Rapids Forest Hills Central on Saturday.
"We have to play much better than we did tonight to be successful this weekend," Blasy said.
Storer looks forward to the challenge of playing those two teams.
"They're really good competition," he said. "It's going to be really good for our younger players to play against talent like that. It's going to be eye-opening for them."
In an event that was planned well in advance for Dow's home opener, the Chargers honored their very first hockey team from 1976-77.
Inaugural Dow hockey coach Al Quick and eight jersey-wearing members of his former team joined the current Chargers in the locker room before the game, then were introduced to the crowd on the ice, before Quick did a ceremonial puck drop.
"That really made me feel good," Quick, 83, said of the celebration of his team. "It brought back a lot of memories. I felt like a celebrity."
Quick actually coached the Dow football team to the state championship that same year. The Chargers won the football title on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, then Quick coached the Dow hockey team in a game the next day.
"We didn't have a (hockey) coach (that first year), so I said, 'I'll coach,'" said Quick, who was Dow's first football coach, hockey coach and athletics director. "I had some background in hockey. … (That season) was hectic, but I loved it. It was fun."
In the locker room, Quick presented Blasy with a memento — the puck from the very first goal scored by Dow in that first season.
"That brought a tear to my eye," Blasy said. "I didn't know till a couple days ago that he had that puck. I'll get it encased very nicely and we'll keep it in the locker room, for sure."
In turn, Quick was given his own keepsake — a commemorative puck that reads, "40th anniversary, Dow Charger hockey, 1976-2016."

Road Trips: Happy Birthday, Harriet
by Angeline Goreau
Angeline Goreau is the author of "Reconstructing Aphra: A Social Biography of Aphra Behn." She lives in the town of Litchfield.
Harriet Beecher Stowe was fifty-one years old when Abraham Lincoln, on meeting her at the White House in 1862, declared: "So this is the little woman who wrote the book that started this great war."
Harriet could be called diminutive in stature only. She was a woman of expansive ambition, the prolific author of twenty books—among them a novel that, arguably, changed the world more than any other work of fiction in history. Uncle Tom's Cabin vividly brought to life the horrors of slavery and set the minds of reformers everywhere on fire. First published in 1852 and never out of print since, it has been translated into thirty-seven languages.
Harriet Beecher was born in Litchfield, CT on June 14th, 1811. On Tuesday the Litchfield Historical Society will be throwing her a party on what would be her 200th birthday. There will be cake and a discussion about Pogunuc People, a novel she wrote about her fondly remembered country childhood.
The daughter of Litchfield's Congregational minister, Lyman Beecher, Harriet was the seventh of thirteen children, all crowded into the parsonage (far right in the painting) on North Street, which Harriet described as "a wide, roomy, windy edifice which seemed to have been built as a series of afterthoughts." A preponderance of boys, as well as Dr. Beecher's habitual absentmindedness, made the household somewhat chaotic, though full of energy and excitement. More than one prodigy emerged from this interesting habitat: Harriet's brother Henry Ward became one of the most famous preachers in America; her sister Catherine played a crucial role in shaping women's education.
Dr. Beecher was famous for his ponderings on predestination, as well as such pressing moral issues of the day as whether Christmas should be celebrated. His stern Calvinism lay heavily on little Harriet, who was called Dolly at home, but she found liberation wandering in the woods, spoiling her clothes with berry juice. Another kind of liberation came unexpectedly when, at the bottom of a barrel of sermons, she discovered a copy of Arabian Nights. Dr. Beecher had forbidden his children to read novels—which he viewed, at best, as "trash" and, at worst, as dangerous. But with Harriet's discovery, the floodgates opened, and soon Dr. Beecher himself fell under the spell of Sir Walter Scott, whose adventures all of Litchfield read aloud to each other in the evenings, eagerly waiting the next installment to arrive by the unspeakably slow post. In those days, a book was an event, as Harriet once remarked.
Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel, Pogunuc People, recreates life in Litchfield as it was at the turn of the nineteenth-century, a time when people felt no need to lock their front doors at night; if fact, in summer left them standing open so the moonlight could shine in. She sketches tea-parties and political quarrels, exuberant Fourth of July celebrations, and religious revivals. She writes elegiacally of her childhood—summer's "perfect freedom" and the "dreamy stillness" of a town where the coach comes only once a week. "Everybody staid at home and expected to stay there the year through."
Not all was elegy, however. The novel does not fail to remark on the six months of winter's "howling desolation" and makes much of the rats at the parsonage—a population so large and war-like that the family cat preferred to ignore it entirely. Cranky New Englanders make trouble with their neighbors, and even go so far as to move the schoolhouse to a new location without the consent of the town.
Copies of Pogunuc People, which includes a key identifying characters that Stowe disguised with pseudonyms, may be purchased from the Litchfield History Museum. In the book, Harriet herself is Dolly Cushing and her father, Lyman Beecher, is Parson Cushing. Judge Tapping Reeve makes an appearance as Judge Belcher; the Revolutionary hero Col. Benjamin Tallmadge has a significant role in the novel as Col. Davenport.
On Saturday, the Litchfield Historical Society will follow up Harriet's birthday party with a walking tour focusing on the Beecher family.

In keeping with the psych theme, BBDDM is a Kansas City collective who create stunning, secretly conventional pop songs via some unconventional and noisy methods.
I'm being lazy today, so we've chosen a few more animal themed bands to sandwich together to give you a better idea of their sound. Think Deerhunter meets Panda Bear and Grizzly Bear. Despite these and other references the band has gotten (Sonic Youth and Radiohead to name a couple), the guys in Baby Birds Don't Drink Milk keep things pretty DIY - releasing tapes on various labels and handmade CDRs on their cooperative label Chomp Womp. Their latest effort, Eek Shriek Beak Eek Shriek Beak is one such CDR (the tape was put out by Best Kept Secret). Both beautiful and haunting, the single "Eating With Horses" is one of the more upbeat tracks on the disc, fuzz and all.

Morrison Awaits Scan
James Morrison will undergo a scan to determine the full extent of the injury he suffered late in the game against Newcastle.
Speaking to wba.co.uk Roy Hodgson said.
'It's obviously knee ligament damage, but I couldn't say what it is until he has had the scan. The initial prognosis from the doctors, is that, it is not good. We'll have to wait and see if it's medial or cruciate ligaments that he's damaged.'
Hopefully it won't be anything too serious, but that could well be Morrison's season.

'Gas and dash' victim was worried about losing wages: friend
CTV Toronto
Published Tuesday, September 18, 2012 11:50AM EDT
Last Updated Tuesday, September 18, 2012 10:33PM EDT
The friends and family of a gas station attendant who died in an alleged 'gas and dash' incident say the employee tried to stop the thief because he didn't want to have his wages docked – an allegation the station owners deny.
Those who knew Jayesh Prajapati allege the station attendant had his wages docked before when customers had stolen gas, which explains why he tried to stop a driver from leaving the station grounds without paying.
Prajapati, 44, was killed Saturday evening after attempting to stop a driver from fleeing without paying a $112 gas bill. Police said Prajapati was struck by the vehicle and dragged down the street.
Toronto police are searching for a suspect in the death and say the man may have fled to Montreal.
"He was under some mental pressure, he wanted to save his day's wages and that's why he ran after the guy," said the victim's brother-in-law Hemant Kumar.
But the station's management says there are no policies in place that dock wages from station employees when gas is stolen on their watch.
"It's not true. We have policies in place and one of the main policy in place is never to run after vehicles," said owner Max Alibhai.
However, Prajapati's friends insist that though not official, the practice had happened to the attendant before.
"Over a period of time he just accepted this thing as a way of life if you want to work at a gas station," said family friend Apurva Patel. "It is not well defined policy kind of thing, it is a mutual understanding between the gas station employee and the retail owner."
Prajapati had come to Canada with his family from India in 2006. He worked as a chemist before, but couldn't find work in his field in Canada.
He started working at the Shell gas station in 2009.
Prajapati's wife told CTV Toronto she doesn't know how she can go on without her husband.
"How will me and my son, … how will I live without him … it's so difficult for me and my son," said a distraught Vaishali Prajapati.
Labour group launches hotline for gas station workers
The Ontario Federation of Labour says it believes the illegal practice of docking worker wages for gas theft may have played a role in the death of a Toronto station attendant over the weekend.
Sid Ryan, president of the Ontario Federation of Labour, announced on Tuesday the launch of a hotline for gas station workers who may be forced to cover the cost of stolen gasoline. Anyone with tips is invited to call 1-800-668-9138.
"We believe that at far too many gas stations in Ontario, after a thief drives off with stolen gas, the company turns around and steals the money back from vulnerable workers," Ryan said in a statement.
"This practice puts workers' lives at risk and could have played a role in the death of an innocent gas station attendant. We want anyone with information on gas stations ripping off employees to call our anonymous hotline to help identify bad bosses and offending companies."
Ryan said the Employment Standards Act prohibits employers from deducting the cost of theft from wages. He said oil companies have a responsibility to ensure franchise owners aren't exploiting workers.
Shell Canada has said it does not require workers to cover the cost of stolen items and stating that employee safety is a top concern.
"Shell's top priority is the safety of staff and customers, and under no circumstances are sales associates or any other retail employee to intervene during criminal activity," said a statement released this week.
Police issue warrant for suspect
Meanwhile Toronto police have issued a warrant for the arrest of 39-year-old Max Edwin Tutiven on the charge of second-degree murder and say he may have fled to Montreal.
"We are requesting the public's assistance in determining the location of Mr. Tutiven and the vehicle that dragged Mr. Prajapati's body," Det. Kate Beveridge told a press conference on Monday.
"He does have associates in Montreal. And there is currently a warrant before the courts in Montreal," she said, adding that he is also wanted in Toronto on unrelated charges.
Tutiven is wanted on the charge of second-degree murder. He is described as a white male with a dark complexion, about 5'5" and weighing between 220 and 230 pounds.
Tutiven is believed to be driving a 2000-2003 silver or beige four-door Isuzu Rodeo, which may have stolen plates attached to it.
Premier Dalton McGuinty said this week he would look into ways to make workplaces safer for station attendants.
Last year, a 62-year-old Petro-Canada employee in Mississauga died after confronting a man attempting to leave the station without paying, a crime colloquially referred to as a "gas and dash." A 22-year-old man was later charged in the death and theft of $75 worth of gas.
The deadly cases have prompted some to call for mandatory pre-payment at all gas stations, similar to systems already in place in British Columbia and in parts of the U.S.

Victoria's newest retirement, assisted living center a plus for community's growth
By the Advocate Editorial Board
July 16, 2014 at 2:16 a.m.
The old adage, "If you build it, they will come," holds a lot of truth.
Continual business and residential growth is our community's best promoter.
This is why places like Brightwater Senior Living, a retirement and assisted living center opening in October, should be applauded.
The senior living community not only promotes Victoria as a city you would want to retire in and call home, but it also champions to provide seniors a happy quality of life.
About 13.5 percent of the population is age 65 or older, according to the 2010 U.S. Census.
This segment of the population does its part to contribute to the community; it is a part of our churches, businesses and everyday lives.
That's where places like Brightwater Senior Living come in. Victoria's newest senior living facility will join the ranks of other quality senior living communities like Homewood Residence, Copperfield Village and Elmcroft, just to name a few, which have called Victoria home.
The facility will offer 98 apartment units ranging from single, studio-style rooms to suites. It also will have a 28-unit memory care area called The Arbor. The secured community will have 24-hour staffing.
Providing a place like Brightwater not only keeps residents happy, but it also keeps a stable source of income flowing into the city.
Another advantage is that the facility is in Victoria, meaning residents never have to feel like they've left home.
Aside from Brightwater's resort-like atmosphere, those from here, and even those who aren't, can benefit from existing Victoria amenities like Riverside Park as well as its historical downtown area.
Residents can also join in the city's cultural scene, attending events such as Bootfest, Jam Fest and Bach Fest, just to name a few.
Keeping senior citizens in Victoria should continue being one of our top priorities.
This editorial reflects the views of the Victoria Advocate's editorial board.
