"Never Cry Wolf" author Farley Mowat dies at 92
TORONTO - Canadian author Farley Mowat, a master storyteller and tireless defender of nature and wildlife, has died. He was 92.
Stephen Smith, a friend of Mowat's, said Wednesday he died Tuesday evening after collapsing at his house in Port Hope, Ontario. There was no word on a cause of death.
Mowat wrote some 40 books, many based on his own adventures and travels. Among his best-known works are "Never Cry Wolf," a fictional narrative about Mowat living among wolves in sub-arctic Canada; and "Lost in the Barrens," which follows a Cree Indian boy and a Canadian orphan's adventures in the Arctic. He said he was lucky to be able to combine his two passions: writing and nature, calling the latter "the only subject I really want to write about."
Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper called Mowat one of Canada's most widely-read authors.
"He was a natural storyteller with a real gift for sharing personal anecdotes in a witty and endearing way. His literary works almost always reflected his deep love of nature and of animals," Harper said in a statement.
Acclaimed Canadian novelist Margaret Atwood tweeted that Mowat was a "wonderful colleague & friend of many years."
From the age of 13, Mowat was fiercely dedicated to writing about the natural world. As a young teen he started a magazine called Nature Lore and had a column in the Saskatoon Star Phoenix.
Mowat was born in Belleville, Ontario, on May 12, 1921. The son of a librarian, he grew up in Windsor, Ontario, and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. His novels and other non-fiction works have been translated into more than 20 languages.
Never one to shy away from controversy, Mowat was outspoken about many environmental and social issues. He called Canada's treatment of aboriginals "abominable," said Canada's annual seal hunt was, "perhaps the most atrocious single trespass by human beings against the living world that's taking place today," and said hunts in general were "symbolic of the massive destruction that we've visited upon life."
He was awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Medal in 1956, the Governor General's Award for "Lost in the Barrens" in 1956, the Leacock Medal for Humor for "The Boat Who Wouldn't Float" in 1970, the Order of Canada in 1981 and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Fund for Animal Welfare in 2003.
Mowat is survived by his wife Claire and sons David and Robert. Burial plans were not immediately available.

Might the Rays be interested in Chris Snyder?
8 comments:
The Astros haven't had a decent catcher since Alan Ashby. Why would the Rays even wanna touch the current Brad Ausmus clones? I say unload Snyder AND Castro. They both look overwhelmed and under-qualified. And for those who defend Brad Ausmus --- NO HE WAS NOT A GOOD BALLPLAYER WHATSOEVER!!!
- April 23, 2012 at 12:40 PM
I would unload most Astros players for a haul of cheap beer and a mid-grade steak from Shula's. For our catchers, I'll settle for less -- how about a a hot dog and autographed picture of a real ballplayer, like Even Longoria.

Reuben I wholeheartedly agree with your idea. I'm at a loss for words after reading those comments up there.
- April 23, 2012 at 4:16 PM
I think Castro will be a above average catcher, I like that is patient as a hitter, I think he will end up hitting .270 with 10-15+ HR's a year and playing good defense. He was out all of last year, so give him some freaking time, plus he was a rushed a little to the majors, felt he needed a year at AAA.
- April 23, 2012 at 4:26 PM
I agree that Castro was rushed. With it known that McLane was looking to sell the Astros, I'm sure Ed Wade did all he could to save his job.

Transfer news: Reported Tottenham target Leandro Damiao has received no offers
Internacional striker Leandro Damiao says he has had no offers regarding a move, despite speculation over his future.
By Paulo Freitas
Last Updated: 21/06/13 10:32am
Tottenham are reported to have been chasing the Brazil international's signature in a number of recent transfer windows, with Andre Villas-Boas believed to have come close to clinching a deal back in January.
Napoli have also been linked with a move should striker Edinson Cavani depart in the coming weeks, while Atletico Madrid have also been rumoured to be eyeing him up.
The 23-year old is a full international for Brazil and he was the top scorer in last year's Olympics, netting six times in five games.
Damiao has two years remaining on his contract with Internacional, but he says he is in no hurry to depart the club that he has spent three years with.
"I am an Internacional player until 2015 and I am happy," he told Globo Esporte.
"I will leave Internacional one day but there is no offer today and maybe there won't be any tomorrow. I am calm."

Stampede Weekend Hits The Dino Nation Blog
The Dino Nation Blog has been hard at work and touching based with our friends in Idaho. Today we had a chance to talk with Joel Abelson assistant coach of Idaho Stampede. He has worked with such NBA stars as Jermaine O'Neal, Baron Davis, Paul Pierce, Al Harrington, and Chauncey Billups, in working with Joe Abunassar with Impact Basketball in Vegas. He has also worked with the Charlotte Bobcats as well. He is now working with Toronto second round pick Nathan Jawai who joined the Stampede last week. He also chips in with a scouting report on Pops Mensah-Bonsu. We also talk about the current and future of NBDL league and prospects for the defending champion Stampede.
That is the kick off to our Stampede weekend. By time Sunday rolls a round you will also hear from Brent Petway who is a member of the Stampede in his second year with the club and a former Michigan Wolverine. He is a guy that is one of the best dunkers you are going to find. He once challenged Dwight Howard to a D-League vs NBA dunk off. We talk about Wolverine, Dunking and his career. We also ask him about his new team member Nathan Jawai. That will be the cap off for Stampede weekend as the Dino Nation Blog talks with Nathan Jawai. Both guys were on cell phones and quality was a little bit off. So these will be it written form. Hopefully you will enjoy it all. The Stampede organization has been really great to work with and the Dino Nation Blog has been happy to form a relationship with the Raptors affiliate in the D-League. Stampede will not be in action till Monday night and will have an update on how the make out but the Raptors will be hosting that Heat and Jazz before that. Stampede are fighting for first place and are looking to defend their D-League title. That is a lot more exciting than waiting for the draft lottery.

It's impossible to impress your 20-something kids. That's a burden all parents must bear. But if you're tired of the arch put-downs, the incessant comments about how "totally out of it" you are, fret no longer. Penta has spent considerable research dollars figuring out how to smartly turn the tables on the problem.
Here are three bars in New York City you can invite your kids to that will instantly establish your street cred. For a bit of slow-sipping enjoyment—without the hangover—watch our embedded videos. Should you decide to go to the next level, we guarantee any child-parent bonding conducted over an Old Fashioned at any of these zinc-tops will send your stock soaring.
King Cole Bar & Salon– Not every bar visited to establish your cool factor has to be a dive behind a dumpster. Even today, the elegant King Cole Bar and Salon of the St. Regis Hotel off of 5th Ave. has that special ingredient to wow even the most world-weary of young adults.
We found film-noir lighting and grilled quail on the menu. The King Cole is the birthplace of the bloody mary, originally branded a red snapper, but it is the droll mural of King Cole by Maxfield Parrish that makes this bar. John Jacob Astor IV had to negotiate hard to get Parrish to paint the mural, and in the process gave the artist complete artistic control, while also insisting that his patron's face be front and center. Look closely: Merry King Cole (aka Astor) is lifting his bottom cheek, as the attending guards fan the foul air.
Penta's call: The bartender simply upended a box of Domino sugar when making an Old-Fashioned, rather than properly muddling a sugar cube with angostura bitters; two red snappers, with tip, cost a kingly $65. But the mural and ambiance are impossible to beat.
Apotheke– The tenement door found down a funky alley in Chinatown gives the impression you are entering the local chapter of a Hong Kong triad, but behind the portal you will find a stylish and sophisticated bar with innovative cocktails. Apotheke means pharmacy in German, and the white-coated bartenders make every drink with farm-fresh ingredients, mixed together in unusual ways. More importantly, your kid will be seriously impressed that you even know of the bar's existence.
Start with Apotheke's refreshing $15 drink, appropriately called Deal Closer, made with fresh cucumber, mint, vodka, the house's vanilla-infused cognac, and something alarmingly called Horny Goat Weed tea, which is apparently an aphrodisiac that's de rigueur in China. You might want to follow with a smoked Negroni, the classic cocktail made of gin, red vermouth, and bitters; here the gin is laced with Lapsang souchong tea, for a deliciously smoky taste. The matador was a fire-and-ice margarita made of a cantaloupe puree and muddled red peppers (mashed by a pestle). In theory, we want to recommend the house drink made from absinthe, bourbon, and peaches smoked with hickory wood, but at that point our notes became illegible.
Penta's call: The drinks are ferociously fun and avant-garde, but beyond one or two, they can become cloying. Switch to Scotch and water if the night persists.
Dutch Kills– A bar below an overpass in Long Island City might not sound promising, but when it comes to honest-to-goodness drinks, this moody 1890s-style tavern kills it. The head bartender's Old-Fashioned had the bourbon, cherry, angostura bitters, sugar, and orange twist muddled into perfect harmony. A bartender on another night—Penta takes its reporting very seriously—produced an Old-Fashioned with more angostura, for a much spicier, Latin take, but they were both excellent, and neither was sickeningly sweet.
The bar's dark ambiance is created through wood paneling, tight booths, and narrow corridors, with ice cubes carved out of giant blocks of ice in front of you, as was done in the 1890s. The drinks are simple, honest, and go down way too easily.
Ask for "bartender's choice" and the mixologist will grill you on your tastes before producing a delicious cocktail that surpasses your expectations. One house drink starts with a raw egg yolk in a shell, spiced with salt, pepper, and Worcester sauce. The raw egg is downed and then chased with a slightly sweet gin fizzz. Some pretty stunning stuff happens to your palate.
Penta's call: A faux 1890s bar sounds hokey, but top-drawer execution, honest drinks for about $10, and the funky Queens neighborhood all make this our top "cool factor" bar.

San Francisco National Cemetery is closed to new interments. The only interments that are being accepted are subsequent interments for veterans or eligible family members in an existing gravesite. Periodically however, burial space may become available due to disinterment from an existing gravesite or for other reasons. If burial space is available at the time of request, the cemetery will assign such gravesites to other eligible Veterans or family members. Since there is no way to know in advance when a gravesite may become available, please contact the cemetery at the time of need to inquire whether space is available.
Burial in a national cemetery is open to all members of the armed forces who have met a minimum active duty service requirement and were discharged under conditions other than dishonorable. A Veteran's spouse, widow or widower, minor dependent children, and under certain conditions, unmarried adult children with disabilities may also be eligible for burial. Eligible spouses and children may be buried even if they predecease the Veteran. Members of the reserve components of the armed forces who die while on active duty or who die while on training duty, or were eligible for retired pay, may also be eligible for burial. For more information visit our eligibility web page.

Cemetery policies are conspicuously posted and readily visible to the public.
Floral arrangements accompanying the casket or urn at the time of burial will be placed on the completed grave. Natural cut flowers may be placed on graves at any time of the year. They will be removed when they become unsightly or when it becomes necessary to facilitate cemetery operations such as mowing.
Artificial flowers and potted plants will be permitted on graves during periods when their presence will not interfere with grounds maintenance. As a general rule, artificial flowers and potted plants will be allowed on graves for a period extending 10 days before through 10 days after Easter Sunday and Memorial Day.
Christmas wreaths, grave blankets and other seasonal adornments may be placed on graves from Dec. 1 through Jan. 20. They may not be secured to headstones or markers.
Permanent planting, statues, vigil lights, breakable objects and similar items are not permitted on the graves. The Department of Veterans Affairs does not permit adornments that are considered offensive, inconsistent with the dignity of the cemetery or considered hazardous to cemetery personnel. For example, items incorporating beads or wires may become entangled in mowers or other equipment and cause injury.
Permanent items removed from graves will be placed in an inconspicuous holding area for one month prior to disposal. Decorative items removed from graves remain the property of the donor but are under the custodianship of the cemetery. If not retrieved by the donor, they are then governed by the rules for disposal of federal property.
VA regulations 38 CFR 1.218 prohibit the carrying of firearms (either openly or concealed), explosives or other dangerous or deadly weapons while on VA property, except for official purposes, such as military funeral honors. Possession of firearms on any property under the charge and control of VA is prohibited. Offenders may be subject to a fine, removal from the premises, or arrest.
When Spain colonized what would become California, this area was selected as the site for a fort, or presidio, to defend San Francisco Bay. About 40 families traveled here from northern Mexico in 1776 and built the first settlement, a small quadrangle, only a few hundred feet west of what is now Funston Avenue. Mexico controlled the Presidio following 1821, but the fort became increasingly less important to the Mexican government. In 1835, most soldiers and their families moved north to Sonoma, leaving it nearly abandoned. During the Mexican War, U.S. troops occupied and repaired the damage to the fort.
The mid-century discovery of gold in California led to the sudden growth and importance of San Francisco, and prompted the U.S. government to establish a military reservation here. By executive order, President Millard Fillmore established the Presidio for military use in November 1850. During the 1850s and 1860s, Presidio-based soldiers fought Native Americans in California, Oregon, Washington and Nevada. The outbreak of the Civil War in 1861 re-emphasized the importance of California's riches and the military significance of San Francisco's harbor to the Union. This led, in 1862, to the first major construction and expansion program at the Presidio since the United States acquired it.
The Indian Wars of the 1870s and 1880s resulted in additional expansion of the Presidio, including large-scale tree planting and a post beautification program. By the following decade the Presidio had shed its frontier outpost appearance and was elevated to a major military installation and base for American expansion into the Pacific.
In 1890, with the creation of Sequoia, General Grant and Yosemite national parks in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California, the protection of these scenic and natural resources was assigned to the U.S. cavalry stationed at the Presidio. Soldiers patrolled these parks during summer months until the start of World War I in 1914. The Spanish American War in 1898 and subsequent Philippine-American War, from 1899 to 1902, increased the role of the Presidio. Thousands of troops camped in tent cities while awaiting shipment to the Philippines. Returning sick and wounded soldiers were treated in the Army's first permanent hospital, later renamed Letterman Army General Hospital. In 1914, troops under the command of Gen. John Pershing departed the Presidio for the Mexican border in pursuit of Pancho Villa and his men. When World War I began, Pershing became commander of the American Expeditionary Forces in Europe.
When the United States entered World War II after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Presidio soldiers dug foxholes along the nearby beaches. Fourth Army Commander Gen. John L. DeWitt conducted the internment of thousands of Japanese and Japanese-Americans on the West Coast while U.S. soldiers of Japanese descent were trained to read and speak Japanese at the first Military Intelligence Service language school organized at Crissy Field. During the 1950s, the Presidio served as the headquarters for the Nike missile defense program and headquarters for the famed Sixth U.S. Army. The Presidio of San Francisco, encompassing more than 350 buildings with historic value, was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1962. In 1989, the Presidio closed as a military entity and was transferred to the National Park Service in October 1994.
On Dec. 12, 1884, the War Department designated nine acres, including the site of the old post cemetery, as San Francisco National Cemetery. It was the first national cemetery established on the West Coast and, as such, marks the growth and development of a system of national cemeteries extending beyond the battlefields of the Civil War. Initial interments included the remains of the dead from the former post cemetery as well as individuals removed from cemeteries at abandoned forts and camps elsewhere along the Pacific coast and western frontier. In 1934, all unknown remains in the cemetery were disinterred and reinterred in one plot. Many soldiers and sailors who died overseas serving in the Philippines, China and other areas of the Pacific Theater are interred in San Francisco National Cemetery.
The cemetery is enclosed with a stone wall and slopes down a hill that today frames a view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Its original ornamental cast-iron entrance gates are present but have been unused since the entrance was relocated. Tall eucalyptus trees further enclose the cemetery. The lodge and rostrum date to the 1920s and reflect the Spanish Revival styling introduced to several western cemeteries.
Two unusual interments at San Francisco National Cemetery are "Major" Pauline Cushman and Miss Sarah A. Bowman. Cushman's headstone bears the inscription "Pauline C. Fryer, Union Spy," but her real name was Harriet Wood. Born in the 1830s, she became a performer in Thomas Placide's show Varieties and took the name Pauline Cushman. She married theater musician Charles Dickinson in 1853, but after her husband died of illness related to his service for Union forces, she returned to the stage. During spring 1863, while performing in Louisville, Ky., she was asked by the provost marshal to gather information regarding local Confederate activity. From there she was sent to Nashville, where she had some success conveying information about troop strength and movements. In Nashville, she was also captured and nearly hanged as a spy. She returned to the stage in 1864, to lecture and sell her autobiography. Entertainer P.T. Barnum promoted her as the "Spy of the Cumberland" and through Barnum's practiced boostership she quickly gained fleeting fame. After spending the 1870s working the redwood logging camps, she remarried and moved to the Arizona Territory. By 1893 she was divorced, destitute and desperate; she applied for her first husband's military pension and returned to San Francisco, where she died from an overdose of narcotics allegedly taken to soothe her rheumatism. Members of the Grand Army of the Republic and Women's Relief Corps conducted a magnificent funeral for the former spy. "Major" Cushman's remains reside in Officer's Circle.
Also buried at San Francisco National Cemetery is Sarah Bowman, also known as "Great Western," a formidable woman over 6 feet tall with red hair and a fondness for wearing pistols. Married to a soldier, she traveled with Zachary Taylor's troops in the Mexican War helping to care for the wounded, for which she earned a government pension. After her husband's death she had a variety of male companions and ran an infamous tavern and brothel in El Paso, Texas. Bowman left El Paso when she married her last husband. The two ended up at Fort Yuma, where she operated a boarding house until her death from a spider bite in 1866. She was given a full military funeral and was buried in the Fort Yuma Cemetery. Several years later her body was exhumed and reburied at San Francisco National Cemetery.
San Francisco National Cemetery was listed as a National Historic Landmark as part of the Presidio in 1962.
Monuments and Memorials

Other Burials
On December 7, 1941, First Lt. Annie Fox was stationed at Hickam Field adjacent to the naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. She was the chief nurse, and became the first woman to receive the Purple Heart in 1942 for "outstanding performance of duty" during the attacks. Her "calmness, courage and leadership was of great benefit to the morale of all with whom she came in contact." Initially reserved for bravery in action, today the Purple Heart is awarded to those injured or killed in combat. This criteria change was made during World War II, so in 1944 the Army rescinded her Purple Heart and replaced it with the Bronze Star. Fox enlisted in the Army Nurse Corps in 1918 and retired from military service in 1945. She died in 1987 (Section A, Site 657-A).
Fred Rover (1887-1960) was born in France and his father, glassmaker Eugene Rouvier, emigrated to the United States with the family in the early 1900s. Fred Rover was also a glassmaker by the time he enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1909. He served in 1st Infantry during World War I and retired with the rank of master sergeant in 1935; the same year he became a naturalized citizen. Rover then embarked upon a second career as civilian employee of the Quartermaster. He held the position of superintendent at national cemeteries at Camp Nelson (KY), Springfield (IL), and Camp Butler (IL). Rover moved to California in the late 1950s and died December 2. He is buried in San Francisco National Cemetery (Section B, Site 60-A).
More than half of VA's national cemeteries originated with the Civil War and many are closed to some burials. Other sites were established to serve World War veterans and they continue to expand. Historic themes related with NCA's cemeteries and soldiers' lots vary, but visitors should understand "Why is it here?" NCA began by installing interpretive signs, or waysides, at more than 100 properties to observe the Civil War Sesquicentennial (2011-2015). Please follow the links below to see the interpretive signs for San Francisco National Cemetery.

text: Ed, That's an idea I had not thought of. Extend the satellite antenna's out to the point where they are past the ends of the 6M antenna. Hmmmm, I already have a fiberglass crossboom that came with the trade I made a while back and was planning on using it, but your idea gives me some more thinking to do. Thanks The satellite antenna's turning radius is only about 10' so a mast 16' would give me 4' inside the tower and still allow for 1/4 wavelength of distance (at 145mhz) between the 6M antenna and satellite antenna's at 90 degrees vertical. Your idea would certainly be stronger and may be the way I end up going, but I still wonder what grade of tubing I would need for that length and wind load. Pipe is a no-no, from what I have read since it is not really made to support lateral loads, and tubing is rated in lateral load or bending moment. Also pipe is measured in inside dimensions rather than outside dimensions. A 2" pipe is not 2" outside diameter. I'm still not sure what to use. I would think aluminum of the correct alloy and thickness would suffice but I would hate to see it laying on it's side one day:-( Your idea may be cheaper in the long run due to the strength it would have.

Candidate presented by: Mr. John Stollenwerk, Vice Chair of the Board of Trustees
Faith, reason and service have been inextricably linked throughout the life of former Lieutenant Governor and Marquette alumna, The Honorable Margaret A. Farrow. Ms. Farrow was raised in a life of faith that was strengthened and shaped by the education she received from the Dominican Sisters of St. Catherine High School in Racine, at Rosary College in River Forest, Illinois, and at Marquette University, where she received her bachelor of science degree in political science and education.
It was at Marquette that Ms. Farrow was impressed by the teaching of Jesuit Father John Friedl, whose philosophy course emphasized the virtue of prudence. She credits that course with having a significant influence in her career in public service.
Ms. Farrow worked for a time as a substitute teacher and as a real estate agent before devoting herself to her husband, John, whom she met at a Marquette basketball game, and to their family, which grew to include five sons.
Ms. Farrow first served in elected office as Elm Grove Village Trustee from 1976 to 1981, then as Elm Grove Village President from 1981 to 1987. She was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in 1986 and then to the Wisconsin State Senate in a 1989 special election, a seat to which she was reelected in 1990, 1994, and 1998. On May 9th, 2001, Farrow was sworn in as Wisconsin's 42nd Lieutenant Governor, a position she held until 2003.
In every elected office she held, Ms. Farrow sought to be a public servant, not a politician, and to seek the most prudent means of serving the public good. Her defense of human life and her ability to listen to new ideas while maintaining a firm commitment to her values were hallmarks of her service. She focused her legislative and executive efforts on education, environmental protection, and the defense of human life. Her faith and education influenced every aspect of her work, particularly her efforts to protect the unborn, advocate for school choice, facilitate school-to-work programs, and open doors to employment.
Ms. Farrow spearheaded two statewide commissions to advance reforms that reduce the cost of government. She played a leadership role in reforming welfare and tax policy to encourage work, saving, investment, innovation, capital formation, labor force productivity, and economic growth. She chaired the Wisconsin Women's Council for several years and served as a member during her tenure as Lieutenant Governor. Farrow also chaired the Governor's Work-Based Learning Board and co-chaired the Governor's Task Force on Invasive Species.
Marquette has previously honored her professional service with the Mary Neville Beilefeld Award from the Association of Marquette University Women and the All-University Alumni Merit Award for Professional Achievement.
Since leaving elected office, Farrow has dedicated her talent and knowledge to several nonprofit activities. She chairs the Priest Review Board for the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. She helped create and now chairs the Waukesha County Action Network (WCAN), an organization of community and business leaders who examine public policy and recommend improvements to remediate problems and advance growth in the greater Waukesha County area and Ms. Farrow also chairs the board of WisconsinEye, a public affairs television network for Wisconsin which began broadcasting in 2007.
Because of her commitment to Catholic and Jesuit values and her career of public service, Reverend President, I hereby recommend the Honorable Margaret A. Farrow for the Marquette University degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa.

5 Tips for Becoming a Detective
Andrew Hawks
What is it about investigative work and detective work that makes it the center of attention in cop movies that Hollywood spits out on a yearly basis? The love affair with detectives and movies seems to go on year after year, from the likes of Dragnet and Dirty Harry, now television in inundated with crime scene investigators from Los Angeles, to Miami and up to New York City.
We all know in real life that being a detective is not quite like the movies, however, it can be a very challenging and rewarding step in your law enforcement career, and a step that should be a natural progression as well. Whether you choose to stay an investigator your entire career, or branch off into other areas of law enforcement, it is a position that you will gain valuable experience in.

Warriors win 4th straight, hold off Suns 113-107
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) When Steve Blake checked in at the scorer's table with 5:25 remaining in the third quarter, Stephen Curry shook his head and shouted across the court, asking Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson not to take him out.
Jackson, a self-described "feel coach," changed his plan. He had Blake enter instead for Andre Iguodala, who looked over at Curry and laughed on the way to the bench.
Curry keyed the deciding run later in the third quarter. He finished with 18 points and nine assists on a strained right quad, helping the Warriors hold off the Phoenix Suns 113-107 on Sunday night for their fourth straight win.
"I always tell coach I'm fine," Curry said. "He always asks me if something's going on, whether it was my ankle back in the day or something small like this. I'm surprised he still asked me because he already knows the answer."
David Lee added 26 points and nine rebounds and Klay Thompson scored 22 points for the Warriors, who built an 18-point lead early in the fourth quarter before the Suns surged back.
Golden State is 9-2 since the All-Star break and a season-high 16 games over .500. The Warriors are two games ahead of Dallas for sixth place in the crowded Western Conference standings.
The Mavericks visit Golden State on Tuesday night.
"The guys had a sense of urgency," Jackson said. "They understood how big this game was. They realized we had an opportunity to really take control."
Gerald Green had 25 points and six rebounds, and Goran Dragic added 24 points and six assists for the Suns, who dropped into a tie with Memphis for eighth in the West.
The Suns also missed a chance to take the four-game season series over the Warriors – and the potential head-to-head tiebreaker for playoff seeding that comes with it. Each team won both meetings on its home floor.
"That's just the whole point about learning how to be a playoff team," Green said. "Certain things you can get away with on certain nights, but when you're playing a team like this – a team that's been in the playoffs – you have to be solid for 48 minutes."
Neither team showed much playoff poise in the final minute.
Green's layup cut Golden State's lead to 111-107 with 38.1 seconds remaining. After Thompson missed a 3-pointer, Andre Iguodala came down with a rebound and the Suns were forced to foul.
Phoenix caught a break when Iguodala missed both free throws. But then Green stepped out of bounds receiving a pass from Dragic on the sideline.
Steve Blake missed two free throws to give the Suns yet another chance. Phoenix followed that up with Marcus Morris air-balling a 3-pointer, and Iguodala made two free throws to seal Golden State's victory.
The Warriors outshot Phoenix 52.9 percent to 48 percent. The Suns outrebounded Golden State 41 to 35 but committed 20 turnovers, while the Warriors only had 12.
"I thought in that third quarter we really got outhustled," Suns coach Jeff Hornacek said. "They were active. They were aggressive for the ball. They wanted it more than we did."
With a nagging quad limiting his playing time, Curry shook off the pain and made sure Jackson kept him on the court longer than expected. Curry made a 3-pointer and handed out six assists during a 23-4 run in the third quarter, and the Warriors went ahead 96-78 early in the fourth.
Curry shot 7 for 16 from the floor in 30 minutes.
"He really took over," Jackson said.
Before the game, Curry said that he injured his quad during Golden State's win at Boston on Wednesday and began to feel pain again during Friday's victory over Atlanta. Both Jackson and Curry said they will communicate with each other during games to determine when – and how much – the All-Star point guard plays.
While he looked a step slow in the first half defending Dragic, Curry came through when his team needed him most.
After the Suns went ahead by 12 in the second quarter, Curry converted a reverse layup while getting fouled by Morris to start a three-point play that brought the Warriors within one. But back-to-back 3-pointers by Dragic helped Phoenix carry a 61-56 lead into intermission.
The Warriors disrupted Phoenix's offense in the third quarter by trapping Dragic at half court. The swarming defense led to several fast-break opportunities, and Curry controlled the offense with near perfection to put the Warriors ahead for good.
NOTES: Hornacek said G Eric Bledsoe, who has been out since Dec. 30 recovering from knee surgery, will likely return for Wednesday's home game against Cleveland. … The Warriors recalled G Nemanja Nedovic from Santa Cruz of the NBA Development League. … Suns C Miles Plumlee had two points and four rebounds in 11 minutes after missing the two previous games because of a sprained shoulder.

Although parking sensors didn't show much promise in preventing backover crashes in the study with volunteer drivers, there is evidence that they can be effective when it comes to reducing parking lot crashes into other vehicles. An IIHS survey of Buick Lucerne owners shows drivers believe the sensors are helping them.
A 2011 insurance claims analysis by HLDI indicated that rear parking sensors offered on the Lucerne were reducing claims for damage (see Status Report special issue: crash avoidance, July 3, 2012). HLDI found that claim frequency under collision insurance, which covers damage to the insured vehicle, was 5 percent lower for vehicles with the park assist feature than for those without, while claims under property damage liability, which covers damage to other vehicles, were 17 percent lower.
In the IIHS survey of 426 owners of 2010-11 Lucernes with rear park assist technology, nearly all respondents reported that they always leave the system on and would want the feature on their next vehicle. Fifty-six percent said they had heard an alert and then noticed something behind their vehicle that that they didn't expect.
Buick is a popular brand among older drivers, and 95 percent of the owners surveyed were older than 60. Technology such as parking sensors has the potential to help address some common age-related problems, such as difficulty turning one's head, but there are concerns about how easy the features are for older drivers to incorporate into their driving habits. This survey shows that acceptance of Buick's parking sensors is high among older drivers.
Rear cameras show promise in preventing backover crashes and are more effective than parking sensors in helping drivers avoid objects behind them, new IIHS research demonstrates.

Did you know that when you gaze into your partner's eyes, you can affect his/her heart rate? We have the capacity for what neuroscientists call "limbic resonance," a process whereby two people become attuned to each other's inner states. We actually adjust our own physiology to mirror the other's; in turn, the partner's inner state adjusts to mirror our own. No wonder "eye contact" is so powerful!

Btw., DELL is one of the worst offenders I have ever > dealt with in this respect. In most cases, without an on-site support person, this is close to the minimum service you can expect without paying for a service contract. If you have a service contract, they want you to read back the serial number, and some other things (5-10 minutes on the phone or on the web) before they dispatch a person with parts (up to and including the entire unit). With an onsite staff person, and we recommend this option in specific cases when down time is expensive*, you can usually point them to a failed machine, and say "go". Another direction we usually use when our customers have limited support staff's and are not interested in dealing with the support questionaire's** is to have several cold spares sitting onsite. Or warm spares. That is, since we argue that the units are sufficiently inexpensive, you have several additional boxes that at a moments notice, you can break into and setup (this part should be automatic), in order to "fix" a problem, and you ship the failed box back to the vendor. If you are really worried about down time, you pay extra for the cross ship of the other box. You do not, and I cannot emphasize this enough, use those boxes for anything other than support swap outs. In fact, if you like, when you get them, load them, and then let them sit in a corner *unused* with power. That way, when they are needed, the time to a swapout and resumption of work is just a few minutes. This assumes BTW that you store all your data/home directories on a server and not on the box itself. There are many ways to skin this cat, but all of them cost real money. You will not get good support unless you are willing to pay for it. The better support you want, the higher the cost will be. At the end of the day, a simple CBA may be needed to help define which level of support you can convince management to pay for. The name brand folks have fairly rigid support programs at the lower levels. If you are not buying 10000 units from them a year, you shouldn't expect flexible support. You will get the 1st level person who doesn't quite grok what they are reading and asking you. You will get the 2nd level person (if you are lucky) who will ask you to do more things and think about your problem. Then you will get the RMA. This is what the big providers will do unless you are buying them by the thousands. While I usually agree with RGB, my experience (from both the consumer and vendor sides) are that the smaller reputable shops will be willing to work with you to design the support program you require. Just like the large vendors, this will cost you money. Joe * good support contracts will run you 10-20% of the purchase price of the system, per year. An onsite support person will run at a fixed cost per year, and they won't be cheap. But this is the fastest method of getting the best service. This should only be done when you start losing lots of money per hour down. Financial houses are like this. Transaction houses as well. ** which all vendors need to go through to get an idea of whats wrong, its exactly like a triage ward at hospital, you don't admit the person if they don't need to be admitted, though these days you rarely have a knowledgable person on the other end, just someone reading a script without much in the way of comprehension ... and it takes some learning and finesse to get past them to the L2 folks who usually have some clue). -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Founder and CEO Scalable Informatics LLC, email: landman at scalableinformatics.com web : http://www.scalableinformatics.com phone: +1 734 786 8423 fax : +1 734 786 8452 cell : +1 734 612 4615

Cake Lingerie Response: Perhaps you have narrow shoulders. I would suggest tightening the straps and see if this helps with the issue.
Cake Maternity was founded in 2008 by Tracey Montford, a former Creative Arts teacher in London, England. When she had her first child at 32, she found that she could not find attractive lingerie. So she consulted with other pregnant women about what they would like to see, and went to the Fashion School to learn construction techniques. Cake Maternity brings beautiful, comfortable styles to pregnant women everywhere, with convenient features like quick-releasing, nickel-free nursing clasps, drop-down cups and inner support slings. Flexible underwires add comfort and mobility. If you or another expectant lady in your life is looking for pretty, supportive, mom-friendly lingerie, then you'll love HerRoom's selections.

Do you need a room number to send flowers to a patient in a hospital in Lost Springs?
It is generally best if you know the room number of the patient because that way the florist can deliver your gift
to the Patient Visitor Information Desk and a volunteer will be able to take it directly to their room.
If you do not have a room number our florist is usually able to get it, but it does make things a little bit more difficult.
So, when ordering flowers, fruit baskets or balloons to be delivered to a patient staying in any hospital it is really
good advise to call the hospital and find out what room they are in BEFORE calling us to place your order.

For the Holidays, we are sharing our wishlists for this edition of "Makeup Wars".
Now, I'm a horrible person to shop for – I've been told that time and time again. It's true. If I want something, I go get it, or I don't need it and don't want to bother anyone to get it for me. So, if I'm going to make a wishlist, it's going to include things that I would never buy myself, and are too costly for anyone to gift me with, so this really should be called my "If I win the lottery, I still may think these things are too expensive to buy, but I might buy them anyway because I just won the lottery after all" list. But "wishlist" is shorter. 😉
1. Robert Piguet 'Fracas' LE Parfum Set – $800
2. Bobbi Brown 2012 Holiday Trunk – $1000
3. Estee Lauder LE Celestial Charms Solid Perfume Compact – $295
4. Tom Ford 16 Color Nail Set – $480
5. Tom Ford Luxury Vanity Case – $1600
6. SK-II Pitera Inspiration Set – $1157
7. Make Up For Ever "Be Your Own Makeup Artist" Station – $950
What about you guys? Do you have a dream beauty product that is on your wishlist this year?

Comments about Weaving Baskets Craft Kit:
The product arrived in bulk and then had to be set up individually making hard for the first time. IF I had known this I would have ordered earlier to try it out. The materials were of good quality but took time to get the project set up.
Best Uses
Comments about Weaving Baskets Craft Kit:
You need to set this project up and read all the directions before giving it to the kids. There is measuring and some guess work needed for this project. Once you've tried it yourself it will be easier to explain. I had 5 year olds through 11 year olds making the baskets. They really enjoyed it and were excited about it being an ongoing porject.
Best Uses
Comments about Weaving Baskets Craft Kit:
I use this project in a psychiatric hospital. This is a failure free project that everyone can do. It helps the patients focus on a task without frustration. Some say it calms them down. They have made some beautiful baskets for their family members. I have a waiting list to get into these groups.

Comments about Weaving Baskets Craft Kit:

Comments about Weaving Baskets Craft Kit:
This is a thrifty craft idea money-wise. However it requires a good deal of preparation if being done in a group. I would not recommend it for a teacher or counselor attempting this with younger children. They have limited success. Teens or Adults would be a better age group.
