Jason Aldean always wanted to play at Fenway Park, maybe first base or elsewhere in the infield. That's finally going to happen, but with a twist. He'll be there this summer at a microphone with a guitar slung around his shoulder wearing a cowboy hat and boots.
"I always hoped I'd play at Fenway," he says. "I kind of meant playing baseball, but I'll take this instead."

Those infamous orange stickers put on so–called "party houses" in Narragansett have made their way to Providence. The city is cracking down on excessive noise, and is slapping tenants and their landlords with a hefty fine.
Scott Ingle, a senior at Bryant University, openly admits he and his roommates had a party at their Providence apartment a few weeks ago.
"Initially it was students from our school and students walking around just sort of came up and we lost control of it," said Ingle.
That night police showed up to the Oakland Ave. 3–decker where they made several arrests. Officers also left behind this orange sticker, dubbing the tenement a "party house."
"I don't think it's very fair," said Ingle. "Like I said, we sort of lost control. It's was a one time thing."
The stickers were first made infamous by Narragansett police who used them to ID nuisance properties rented by URI students. They're meant to get tenants and landlords to cut down on the excessive drinking and rowdiness by threatening them with a $500 fine.
Neighbors near Providence College are fed up with the excessive noise, parking problems, and public drunkenness.
"It was still light outside. They were in the middle of the road with cones trying to direct traffic, drinking beers," said one neighbor who wanted to remain anonymous.
3 houses on Oakland Ave. already been identified as trouble spots.
The ordinance was enacted in way back 2005. This is the first time it's being enforced.

In the three games the Penguins have played so far without both Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, they've sometimes found offense hard to come by.
Last Thursday, Pittsburgh couldn't get on the scoreboard, losing 2-0 at New Jersey. Tuesday's home game against the New York Islanders brought only one goal, a net-front rebound from the unlikely source of Craig Adams – his first regular-season, even-strength tally in his two-plus seasons with the team.
But one was all goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury needed. He made Adams' goal stand up, earning his 18th career shutout and stealing a 1-0 win for the Penguins heading into the All-Star break.
"I don't try to play better because we lost some scoring guys," Fleury said with a laugh. "I just try to do my job like I usually do and get some wins, so it's been fun."
Fleury is now 23-11-2 on the season. Instead of heading on vacation during the break, he's headed to Raleigh, North Carolina, as an All-Star – the leading vote-getter among goaltenders, at that. It's entirely possible he could be looking at his first Vezina Trophy nomination this spring.
None of this is surprising when you consider Fleury's pedigree. He was the first-overall selection in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft, the goaltender whose stunning, post-to-post save in Game 7 preserved the Penguins' Stanley Cup win in 2009. He's the guy who earlier this season, at age 25, became the seventh-youngest netminder to earn 150 career wins.
What makes Fleury's recent performance so impressive, however, is that he's not terribly far removed from a 1-6 start that was the worst of his career.
"Amazing how different the questions are now, compared to the first 10 games when everyone wanted to trade him," said defenseman Brooks Orpik, who suggested that Fleury may have taken an unfair portion of the blame for his rough start.
"That first 10 games or so, I think we had a lot of new guys in the lineup, we were making a lot of mistakes in front of him, and he was kind of hung out to dry," Orpik said. "He was the easy guy to use as a scapegoat. But he's been great for us all year … this is as consistent as he's been in his whole career."
Indeed, Fleury has been consistent over a long enough stretch that head coach Dan Bylsma, asked about his netminder's turnaround, joked, "I don't know what you're talking about." But the coach can still remember Fleury's first home win on November 12, a contest he credits with getting him pointed in the right direction.
"Since early on this season, after a few games where he didn't get the result and wasn't feeling too good about his game, he certainly has turned it around," Bylsma said. "Again, we go back to the Tampa Bay game where we come back [home] and the fans cheer him on to a great performance. And, since then, he's been the backbone of our team."
Fleury hasn't always been flashy in coming up with the wins. His shutout against the Isles was just his second of the season, with several more potential goose eggs erased in the final minutes of games.
But his numbers are creeping up into the league leads – he's fifth in wins and goals-against, sixth in save percentage – and his team is growing increasingly secure in the knowledge that he'll be there when it counts.
"He's always had the propensity to make that big save and be that guy for us," Bylsma said. "But, to be solid in every aspect and real consistent in his play, this is probably the highest level we've seen him at for a long period of time.
"Tonight, for good periods of the game, we played some good hockey and pinned them in the offensive zone. But we did make some mistakes, and he was there every time, real strong. We've missed giving him the due reward a couple times with the shutout … he deserves [one] going into the All-Star break."
As pleased as Fleury was to finally blank an opponent – "It seems like the last couple games, I couldn't get a shutout, so I was hoping to finally get one," he said – he's even more gratified to be helping the Penguins as they jockey for playoff position.
"If you look at the standings, it's really tight, and we need every point we can get," he said. "Tonight it was a close game, a tough one to win and we played well, so I'm happy."
And, although Fleury said it will be nice to work in some rest and relaxation around his All-Star duties and recharge for the stretch ahead, his coach wouldn't mind seeing him get right back between the pipes.
"I just don't want him to take some time off," Bylsma said. "He can just keep playing."

The trip has taken them, and their Mercedes Benz G-Wagon, Otto, more than 500,000 miles (twice the distance from the earth to the moon) away from their home in Germany, to far flung places like North Korea, Cuba and California.
It'd be easy to call this the journey of a lifetime. But more accurately, in this case, it's a lifetime of journey.

This policy does not apply to video recordings of college events (e.g. plays, music performances, athletic contests, graduation, Board meetings), video recordings used for instructional purposes and made with the consent of all parties recorded, video recordings made of individual teachers for the purpose of improving classroom instruction, or surveillance (covert or otherwise) undertaken by law enforcement officers.
- Covert Surveillance – surveillance conducted by means of hidden devices, without notice to the individuals being monitored.
- Personally Identifiable Information – all information about a student other than directory information, which is defined in R.C. 3319.321(B) (1).
- Video Recording – a videotape, CD, DVD, disk, hard drive, or other device used to store information (whether in printed format, on film, by digital/electronic means or otherwise) from a video surveillance/electronic monitoring system.
- Video Surveillance/Electronic Monitoring System – a video, physical, or other mechanical or digital surveillance/electronic monitoring system or device that is permanently installed and enables continuous or periodic video recording, observing or monitoring of individuals on college premises. This includes an audio device, thermal imaging technology or any other component associated with recording the image of an individual.
- Portable Video Cameras – portable video cameras that may be carried by an individual.
Placement of Video Surveillance/Electronic Monitoring Equipment
Video surveillance/electronic monitoring equipment may not be used inside a classroom, laboratory, or other area utilized as a classroom. Neither shall they be operated in areas where there is a reasonable expectation of privacy (e.g. restrooms, locker rooms, private offices, conference/meeting rooms, and/or staff lounges).
No sound is to be monitored or recorded in connection with the video surveillance/electronic monitoring system.
Security staff and administrators are authorized to carry and use portable audio and video cameras when responding to a specific incident.
Notice of Surveillance
Each area in which video surveillance/electronic monitoring system is occurring shall have clearly written signs posted at conspicuous locations informing persons that the buildings and grounds may be under video surveillance. Signs shall be conspicuous enough in size so that a reasonable person would be able to view the contents of the sign and have reasonable and adequate warning that surveillance is, or may be, in operation. The signs must provide contact information for the person who is responsible for answering questions about the video surveillance/electronic monitory system.
Operation of Video Surveillance/Electronic Monitoring Equipment
- Video surveillance/electronic monitoring equipment may be used to monitor and/or record behavior and activity of all persons on college property or grounds.
- Real-time viewing shall be limited to security personnel, administration or other employees needed to resolve the incident. Under certain circumstances, Security may contact local law enforcement to view the District's real-time video surveillance/electronic monitoring feeds.
- Circumstances warranting a review should be limited to instances where an incident is reported/observed or to investigate a potential crime or violation of Board Policy or the Student Code of Conduct.
- If information is not viewed for law enforcement, college or public safety purpose—it should be routinely erased according to a standard schedule (i.e. they will be maintained for a period of thirty (30) calendar days). If information is viewed for law enforcement, college or public safety purposes, it must be retained for a minimum of one (1) year. Prior to its destruction, the Superintendent and/or College Counsel must be contacted for approval.
- A periodic audit of random images from the video surveillance/electronic monitoring system shall be conducted to verify that the equipment is operating properly and has not been blocked, moved or altered and that the images captured by the system are not inclusive of areas prohibited by this guideline.
- Only a designated employee or agent of the Board can install and operate video surveillance/electronic monitoring equipment.
Use of Video Recordings
Information obtained through video surveillance/electronic monitoring shall be used exclusively to enhance security for students, staff and visitors, and to assist in the detection and deterrence of criminal activity (theft/vandalism) and/or violations of Board policy or the Student Code of Conduct. Video recordings may be used by the Board/administration as evidence in any legal or disciplinary actions, and for inquiries and proceedings related to law enforcement.
Any remote monitoring system must protect the integrity of the video surveillance system and include a system utilizing passwords or other identifiers to gain access. Monitoring shall only be conducted by authorized security administrators and designees (e.g. police officials). Likewise, network connected systems must not be openly accessible on the Internet; rather, they must be operated behind the District's firewall and password protected.
Misuse or abuse of the video surveillance/electronic monitoring system shall not be tolerated and will be addressed on a case-by-case basis.
Viewing of Recordings
Any student (or parent of a minor student), employee or member of the public that is recorded by a video surveillance/electronic monitoring system has a general right of access to review the video if it will not result in or constitute an unauthorized release of another student's personally identifiable information. Access to an individual's own personal information may depend upon whether any other confidential or privileged information can be reasonably severed. Confidential or private information can be reasonably severed from the recording for viewing purposes if the District is able, without undue hardship or expense, to utilize a copy of the recording and digitally "black out" or "blur" the images of the other individuals who appear on the video. The original recording may not be altered in any manner. If an employee or student is facing any disciplinary action, s/he may authorize his/her (union) representative or other advocate to also view the video recording.
An individual may be refused permission to review a video recording where to allow it would:
- be an unreasonable invasion of a third party's personal privacy;
- give rise to a concern for the safety of a third party;
- constitute an unauthorized disclosure of student personally identifiable information under State and/or Federal law; or
- interfere with or compromise a law enforcement investigation/matter.
Retention, Secure Storage, Access to and Disposal of Video Recordings
Video recordings, when not in use, shall be stored in a locked, fire resistant cabinet or room, in an area to which students and the public do not normally have access. The recordings must be clearly and properly labeled and entered into a storage log.
Logs must be maintained of all instances of access to, and use of, recorded material – the log must document the person accessing the recording, the date and time of access, and the purpose). Security may authorize the viewing of recorded images in the event of an ongoing law enforcement investigation, and incident involving property damage or loss or for other reasons deemed appropriate.
All video surveillance/electronic monitoring recording media shall be considered legal evidence and treated as confidential. Release of original video recordings to individuals or outside agencies may only occur pursuant to subpoena or court order.
Original video recordings shall never be edited or manipulated in any manner. When video recordings are requested by any law enforcement agency as part of an ongoing investigation, a duplicate may be provided for that purpose. The original media shall be protected from accidental overwrite or erasure during the duplicating process.

FORT MYERS: Two after-hours fires in less than nine months have a metal scrap yard working to make sure it doesn't happen again. Garden Street Iron and Metal in Fort Myers offered an exclusive look at what firefighters describe as $2-million in damage.
Wednesday, crews worked to clear out the "fluff bunker," as they call it.
"Your car seat insulation, the insulation out of a refrigerator, the plastic from a refrigerator, the insulation from a hot water heater - it's all of those items which are not metal," said Weber, describing the fluff bunker.
He explained the "shredder" there can get up to 1,400 degrees. Weber says he believes a piece of hot metal got in with the fluff, which caused it to go up in flames.
"They tend to catch on fire," said Webber.
A fire broke out in the fluff bunker just last may. After that, fire hoses were installed on the 24- acre site.
And while an on-site fire hose almost certainly would not have stopped Tuesday's fire, it is credited with stopping some fires that break out from time to time there during the week.
"Last night, the guard just waited too long before he noticed the fire," said Weber.
Firefighters were at Garden Street for five hours. A battalion said that the scrap yard is up to code and they believe Tuesday night's fire was accidental.
Weber says they will lose about two days of production as they work to replace the roof and fix a conveyor belt.
"The problem with a sprinkler system is the heads are not going to displace enough water to really do the trick," Weber explained.
He says he will buy extra cameras so his security guards have better views of any problems before they turn into this.

T_OBJECT_OPERATOR problem
Hey mate,
tried to activate your plugin and got this error:
"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in wp-content/plugins/bp-wiki/includes/bp-wiki-ajax.php on line 345″
Strange thing is that unless i delete your plugin from plugins folder same error comes out when i try to activate any other plugin.
After i deleted on WP plugins page this error came out "The plugin bp-wiki/loader.php has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist."
Any help on installing this? I really need wiki plugin on my website and it seems like yours could do the job.

2 Step Signup?
Is it possible to create a 2 step signup?
Example – First only username , email , password and name is asked.
– Second relatting to location , gender , age etc..
Would be great if the user is redirected from the activation email they receive to a page that ask for additional info before activation is 100% complete. Or any other possible way…
Because I think asking all the info at once might scare some people off.
Don't know if it is possible?

A Camel Caravan
The Americans left the earthen walls of their base around dawn, taking a left on the dusty unpaved path that runs outside, in the direction of the boarder with Pakistan. But they weren't going that far. Just a few miles in fact, to the nearest village, for a routine foot patrol. A few Afghan men watched from distant hills above us, crouching stock-still as we passed.
After a half hour we arrived a tiny hamlet, a dispersed collection of mud brick houses set among farm fields and tiny hay barns. The largest building by far among the dozens or so in the area was the mosque. It was also of mud, and was around the size and shape of an old one-room schoolhouse on the prairie. Several other buildings abutted the mosque, forming a simple town square fringed with hewn long benches.
The purpose of the patrol was ostensibly to search the farm houses in the area, looking for weapons or signs of militant activity. So as not to rile the locals too badly, the American forces I was traveling with, led by a burly Staff Sergeant named Adam James, brought along members of the nascent Afghan police force to do the actual searching. The Afghan police didn't look any different than the men sitting idly in the square, save that they wore heavy blue coats that read "Police" in English on the back.
Staff Sgt. James laconically directed these Afghan forces to begin their search, seeming almost bored; he has two hours of Iraq under his belt before coming here, and has a seen-it-all sort of air about him. Before long, like everywhere else in the Third World, young boys materialized from the ether and started gathering around the visitors. No girls approached us, though I could see some in the distance, leading pack animals around or tending to the fields. Sgt. James ordered some of his men to nearby high ground to watch the road and the land around us. Once these sentries were in place James relaxed, sitting on the log bench and taking some of the pale yellow Afghan hot tea offered to him by one of the men of the mosque.
I looked around at the surrounding hills. "Hey, isn't this Taliban country?" I asked. "Pretty much," James said, blowing on the tea glass while holding it gingerly by the rim. "Aren't you worried you'll get ambushed?" I asked. "Naw, they wouldn't do it here," he said. "They'll wait until we're on the road heading back to the base." "Oh. What might you do to prevent that?" "I'll call in helicopter support. They'll cover us, and then we'll head back."
Just then, one of the soldiers watching on a hill called won, stringing some words together he probably never had uttered before in his life: "Looks like we got a bunch of camels heading for us, sir." Everyone turned to look down the road. He was right. In minutes, they were among us.
It was a colorful caravan of at least fifty camels and as many ponies, all laden with ramshackle cloth bags tied with homemade ropes. Hundreds of angular bearded mean in turbans and shalwar kameez and as many women covering their faces walked alongside. Sleepy children with wild hair and runny noses rode on hand-woven saddles on the humps, their heads rocking in time with the rhythmic sway of the camels' steady gait.
They were passing through and didn't stop, but the Army's Pashto translator managed to shout out some questions as they lumbered past, and we got the gist of their story — they had been on the road four days so far, and had about a week to go; they were fine thank you though one of their camels was going lame; and they were heading for warmer climates for the winter, toward the village of Salerno and coming from Ghazni.
As the caravan disappeared into the dusty distance, we all watched it quietly, with the kind of instinctive awe one gets when you see something that seems to walk out of history. Had one stood on this road during the autumn migrating months a thousand years ago, that caravan would have looked completely the same.
Soon the local police finished their searching and it was time to return to the base. Sgt. James called in for Apache attack helicopters to cover the road, but none were available. So, instead we hiked up into the hills and returned cross-country on the high ground, the soldiers marching single-file on the ridges of the ancient mountains. We were back in time for a late lunch.

How to Identify a Thesis Topic
Although a few students begin the concentration with a clear focus and plans for their thesis direction, many at first seem overwhelmed by the task of narrowing their interests enough to select a topic. Successful topics have been discovered in an amazing variety of ways. Early in the second semester, representatives of community groups will attend the Center 's Thesis Fair, and will suggest topics of interest to their groups. Working on a topic suggested by a community group usually provides a broader audience for your thesis. Also, after you have defined your general area of interest, ES faculty are often able to suggest a contemporary problems in their areas of interest. Regular and careful reading of the Providence Journal or the New York Times, conversations with professionals or volunteers actively working on environmental problems, further investigation of issues encountered in course work, scanning environmental journals, regular attendance at seminars or other environmental meetings and conversations with colleagues and faculty members have proven to be productive ways to identify possible thesis topics. Environmental Science theses must have a primary science focus involving laboratory or field work or quantitative modeling and it must have environmental policy implications or a broad environmental relevance.
Perhaps most importantly, plan to assist a current thesis writer as a thesis buddy during the semester before you must file your thesis proposal (i.e. buddy-up in your fifth semester if you will file your plan in the sixth). You will observe how a thesis topic is refined and attend meetings of your thesis buddy with her/his faculty advisor. You will notice that there are different approaches to thesis definition (e.g. focus on a Central Question, or identify a Burning Issue). This is a valuable and relatively painless introduction to the thesis process.
When you have been able, in one manner or another to identify a tentative topic (or topics), discussions with your peers and potential thesis advisors may help you to clarify your ideas. You may, in addition, wish to look at the theses that we have in the Center Library but you should keep in mind that many of the authors of these works, before beginning research, would not have thought themselves capable of the final result. Abstracts of theses produced in the past several years can be found on the Center's Webpage.
The process of selection and focus may take several weeks or months and to allow time for thoughtful contemplation, preparation should begin well before thesis work is to start. Recent graduates offer two pieces of advice: that the thesis should be begun at the earliest possible moment and that every effort should be made to attend the thesis seminars. You should propose a thesis topic no later than the third week of your sixth semester. In order to do this, you should begin informal discussions with ES faculty in your fifth semester.

Softball's bats stay silent in pair of losses at Diamond Devil Invitational
BOX SCORE: vs. Southern
BOX SCORE: vs. New Mexico State
TEMPE, Ariz. -- Northern Colorado's women's softball team hasn't figured out how to wake up its bats early on this season.
The Bears scored just four runs in a pair of losses Friday afternoon -- a 4-0 defeat to Southern Utah and a 8-4 loss to New Mexico State -- at Arizona State's Diamond Devil Invitational.
Northern Colorado (3-11) is now hitting just .217 this season after 14 games.
The Bears mustered a pair of hits in their loss to Southern Utah, but they were still in the game heading into the fifth inning. That's when the Thunderbirds posted a three-run frame to put the game out of reach.
Then, in Northern Colorado's second game of the day, the Aggies posted six runs in the first inning, setting the tone for the game.
Jamie Juelfs started in the circle for Northern Colorado against Southern Utah, and she fared well, giving up four runs on five hits with four strikeouts in 4.1 innings of work.
Hillarie Van Otterloo struggled in her start against New Mexico State, failing to record more than one out. She gave up five earned runs on six hits in her one-third inning of work. Kelli Henderson allowed just two runs in her four innings of relief, but New Mexico State's quick strike was too much to overcome.
The Bears will return to the field tomorrow in Arizona, where they're scheduled to face Utah State and the host Sun Devils.

As host of the weekly, national public television series Thinking Allowed, Jeffrey Mishlove has pioneered the introduction of deep, authentic and thoughtful discussions in a broadcast medium noted mostly for soundbites and sensationalism. In this capacity he conducts interviews with leading figures in science, philosophy, psychology, health and spirituality. Jeffrey's guests have included Joseph Campbell, Rollo May, Virginia Satir, Houston Smith and Jean Houston. About 500 of these interviews have been broadcast since 1986. Now Jeffrey has also hosted the daily, two-hour Wisdom Radio program, Virtual U, available worldwide on the internet.
He is author of the classic Roots of Consciousness (originally published in 1975, with new editions in 1993 and 1997) -- an overview of the history, science and folklore of parapsychology and consciousness exploration -- which has been widely used as an introductory college text. Psi Development Systems, a book based upon his doctoral dissertation, evaluates dozens of methods for training extrasensory abilities. Another book, Thinking Allowed consists of edited transcripts from the television series. His newest book is The PK Man: A True Story of Mind Over Matter.
He currently serves as Director of the Intuition Network, an organization of thousands of individuals in business, government, health, science and education who are interested in cultivating and applying intuitive skills. The Intuition Network operates a computer conference and also sponsors conferences, seminars, tours, research and publications. An anthology, Intuition At Work, was published by New Leaders Press in 1996 in cooperation with the Intuition Network.
Jeffrey has the distinction of holding a doctoral diploma in "Parapsychology" which is the only such diploma ever awarded by an accredited, American University. He received this degree in 1980 from the University of California at Berkeley. He is also past-president of the California Society for Psychical Study and past-vice-president of the Association for Humanistic Psychology.
Jeffrey has helped to create a new institution of higher education, the University of Philosophical Research that has recently been approved by the State of California to offer a distant learning masters degree in Consciousness Studies. He serves as the dean of program for this college, and also teaches the course in parapsychology.

MONTREAL -- The Panthers had more than just Scott Clemmensen trying to keep the puck out of the net in the final five-plus minutes on Sunday.
Thanks to players like Mike Weaver, Dmitry Kulikov, Brian Campbell and Jesse Winchester getting in the way, the host Canadiens didnt register a shot in the final 5:27 as Florida held on for a 2-1 win at Bell Center.
Florida has won three straight and five of six for the first time this season.
Our guys were diving in front of shots, putting sticks out there to deflect passes, said Clemmensen, who got the win in his second straight start with just 17 saves as the Panthers got credit for 22 blocked shots.
I tip my hat to the guys in front of me. When you dont have to make a save, it makes things a lot easier.
Montreal trailed 2-0 coming into the third after Florida scored twice in the second. The Canadiens, who played in New York on Saturday, cut Floridas lead in half on Alex Galchenyuks power play goal 2:28 in.
The Canadiens had been badly outplayed in the first 40 minutes yet came to play in the third. Florida hurt itself late in the third when Weaver went to the box for charging and Scottie Upshall was called for a cross-check.
That put the Panthers down two skaters for 35 seconds and on a penalty kill for 3:25.
Thanks to some strong play from Kulikov who saved a goal during the kill Florida survived.
If we didnt kill that off, who knows what would have happened, Kulikov said. They really would have had some momentum going. It was a big kill.
In the final minute, Montreal pulled goalie Peter Budaj to add an attacker. P.K. Subbans long shot flew wide with 34 seconds left before Weaver and Winchester who gave the Panthers a 1-0 lead jumped in front of Andrei Markov shots to keep Clemmensen out of any further danger.
When youre blocking shots like that, you know youre doing a lot of the right things, said coach Peter Horachek, who is now 9-8-1 since taking over for the fired Kevin Dineen on Nov. 8.
You saw a lot of commitment there. .-.-. I think that shows the determination they have.
All of that would have been moot had Florida put the game away with 1:09 left. Hockey Central in Toronto reviewed video of a goal from Brad Boyes (which would have made it 3-1) and determined it was kicked in. One angle showed the puck appear to clip a Montreal stick after Boyes tapped it soccer-style which should have made it a good goal.
After a scoreless first, Florida took a 1-0 lead when Tomas Kopecky saw Winchester sitting alone out front and put a pass from behind the cage on the tape of his stick. Winchester, who was playing in place of Jonathan Huberdeau (foot), scored his career-high fifth goal by blasting said feed past Budaj.
Late in the second, Nick Bjugstad and Tomas Fleischmann charged in on the Montreal goalie with Bjugstad taking a Fleischmann delivery and scoring at the 7:11 mark.
That goal counted [as the game-winner] but a lot more went into winning that game, said Bjugstad, who scored his sixth of the year. A lot of guys were involved in this.
Huberdeau said he took a shot off a skate during the third period of Fridays shootout win against the Capitals. Although Huberdeau finished the game and scored in the shootout his right foot swelled as soon as he took off his skate.
Sundays game was the first Huberdeau missed since the Panthers made him the third overall pick in 2011. Huberdeau spent the day in a walking boot.
Its best I stay away from the ice for now, said Huberdeau, who is from nearby Saint-Jerome, Quebec. This is day-to-day and I want to be ready for Tuesdays game.
• Defenseman Erik Gudbranson left late in the first period after getting tangled up in the corner and getting slashed in the leg by an errant skate blade.
Gudbranson didnt return and was seen limping badly although both Horachek and GM Dale Tallon said he wouldnt be put on the injured list.

I build million-dollar-and-up custom homes for very demanding
clients in the Andover, Mass. (Boston) area. Working
successfully at that level requires excellent communication and
a fair amount of handholding with everyone involved in a
project. Ever since I took over the business from my dad in the
mid 1980s, I've believed technology could help my business
succeed, and I've looked for ways I could use computers to make
my business better.
When the Internet came along in the mid-nineties, I was
fascinated by how all kinds of information could be published
online and then retrieved by anyone with a personal computer
and web browser software. Since my clients are often executives
who could be in Boston today and Los Angeles tomorrow, my first
thought was to use the Internet to put basic project
information where everyone could see it 24-7. By 1998 our
www.wynwood.net website had become "mission
control" for our projects, and all our other job-site and
office technology is now geared around how we use the
My computer setup is somewhat unconventional. In my office I
have five workstations but only one actual computer. It's rare
that my office manager and I would need to be working on the
computer at the same time, so instead of building a complicated
network, we use a "CPU sharing device," which allows me to
connect multiple monitors, keyboards, and mice in different
offices to a single computer. The office computer runs our
BuildSoft accounting system, SoftPlan CAD, the two database
programs (discussed below) that make up our project management
system, all our project documents, and a local (unpublished)
copy of our website.
I also have a Sharp Actius UM-20 ultra-light notebook computer
equipped with a wireless cellular modem (see Figure 1). I'm
surprised more builders haven't caught on to the Sharp laptop;
it's a remarkable computer for anyone on the go. At 9x11 inches
it's no bigger than a typical spiral-bound paper notebook. It
weighs only three pounds yet has as much power as most desktop
The Sharp UM series sub-3-pound laptop,
equipped with a wireless cellular modem, is the author's
constant companion. It's light enough to hold in one hand while
typing with the other yet has a 12-inch screen that's
acceptable for CAD.
The tiny size of the Sharp (www.sharp-usa.com) makes it easy to carry
with me all the time, and the wireless modem lets me connect to
the Internet to upload digital photos and other files to my
website, or to receive and respond to key faxes and other
documents, no matter where I happen to be. I've looked at the
current crop of PDAs (personal digital assistants) and other
hand-held gadgets, and they all have severe limitations
compared with my laptop.
The third leg of our "no-network network" is the Internet. In
addition to hosting our website, we use the Internet like a
giant "floppy disk in the sky" -- to back up our critical files
and keep our project files up to date between the field and the
office. To do that, we "push" files to the Internet for storage
and for viewing online, and then "fetch" them back to our
office and mobile computers. That way, everything stays in
Like most builders, I found the jargon of the Internet --
packets, connections, protocols, TCP/IP -- to be overwhelming
at first. But in order to make use of the Internet for project
management and file storage, I had to force myself to learn
some of the nuts and bolts of getting files from my computers
to our web-hosting provider. I learned that "FTP" (file
transfer protocol) is the most common means of doing that. A
web browser can be used to transfer files by FTP, but it's
almost impossible to automate. You can also buy separate
programs like CuteFTP (www.cuteftp.com) and WS_FTP
(www.ipswitch.com), which web designers and
network administrators might use. Those are powerful programs
and can be automated, but they also mean a new piece of
software for somebody to learn, and we're too busy for
As it turned out, everything we need to push and fetch files
via FTP is built right in to the Windows operating system. FTP
commands look a lot like old DOS commands and can be run from a
DOS window or be incorporated into a "batch file." I was using
computers back in the days of DOS, so I'm comfortable writing
DOS batch files to automate different computing chores. A batch
file is a special text file that will run a listing of computer
commands one after the other, saving you the hassle of typing
each one in individually (Figure 2). Better yet, after creating
the batch file, you can drag a shortcut to the Windows desktop
that will run it by simply double-clicking. It's easy to do,
and it's free.
Figure 2.Uploading files to your web-hosting
account can be managed with a few mouse clicks by creating
simple batch files that automate the FTP process. This file
connects to the Internet and then uploads a set of documents to
the author's website. An FTP ttutorial is available online at
In our case, I've created several batch files to automate the
tasks of pushing and fetching files to and from our web-hosting
service, and I've made desktop shortcuts on both our office
computer and my laptop. So now, all my office manager has to do
to upload a new set of project documents or update our web
pages is double-click a shortcut icon on her computer desktop.
She doesn't need to know about FTP, TCP/IP, or any other
technical mumbo-jumbo.
Each time we start a new job, I set up a folder structure for
it on our website using templates I created using a
discontinued web page editor called AOLpress (still available
for download from
Because the bulk of the work is done ahead of time, it takes me
only a couple of hours to set up an entire job online.
The pages created with AOLpress serve the purpose, but they're
not slick by today's standards. If I was going to do it over
today, I'd probably use a commercial web-authoring tool like
Microsoft FrontPage or Macromedia DreamWeaver.
The initial version of our website was just the usual static
information, but I knew that to make it work as a project
management tool I needed a way to upload the journal notes and
other changeable content. The solution turned out to be two old
DOS database programs I've been using since 1988. I use
Symantec Q&A to manage project details and change
orders, and Lotus Agenda, a basic contact manager, to log
journal notes.
Almost by accident I discovered that all you have to do to
turn any text file into a web page is to add an "html"
(hyper-text markup language) tag to the beginning of the file,
and "/html" at the end. That's when a light bulb went off -- my
old DOS database programs could "sort" on certain fields and
generate a report, so why not make the html tags a field and
let the database tack them on to the report automatically? I
almost fell out of my chair when I figured that out -- now my
office manager and I could turn our existing databases into
basic web pages with just a couple of commands.
I had good office and project systems in place before the
Internet came along, but back then we had to print out (and
distribute) reams of paper to keep everyone on the same page.
If there is one thing builders should take home from this
article, it's that the Internet can be a replacement for almost
anything you now print out on paper. The great advantage is
that everyone who needs the information can get it at the same
time, with no postage or courier expense and no delays. All
anyone needs is an Internet connection and a web browser, which
just about everyone has nowadays.
At first, I thought the only documents I could put online were
html web pages, but as time has gone on, I've figured out ways
to get almost any kind of document uploaded to our website,
even paper building permits, plot plans, and invoices (Figure
3). Some documents (for example, a project specification) are
put on our public website, where they can be viewed by anyone,
while others (like a time card or an invoice) have hidden
locations to keep them more private.
Figure 3.Each section of the "house information"
is linked to the actual project document that can be viewed
online. Here a scanned version of the building permit created
with an HP K80 multifunction fax-scanner-printer is
Paper documents. We use an
HP (Hewlett-Packard) K80 multifunction printer-fax-scanner with
a sheet feeder to convert paper documents -- building permits,
subcontractor invoices, and photographs -- into digital files
that can be uploaded to our website or simply stored on our
computers (Figure 4). When paper mail comes in, our office
manager marks what needs to be scanned and preps it by removing
staples and paper clips. Once a week or so the earmarked paper
documents are scanned and the electronic versions are placed in
a folder on our office computer. Some are then marked for
specific projects and moved to the folders that are uploaded to
our website.
Figure 4.Where there's a will there's a way.
Almost any kind of document can be put online once it's
converted to the correct file format. Paper documents like
invoices and tax maps (left) are scanned with multifunction
printer-fax-scanner and saved as .tif files. CAD files can be
saved as .jpg or .gif images or .pdf files (center), and still
other programs like BuildSoft and Microsoft Office can save
files in an html format that can be uploaded directly
We normally save the electronic version as a .tif (tagged
image format) file. The .tif format makes a small file that can
be easily uploaded and viewed in most web browsers, and it's
also the file format generated by electronic fax services like
eFax (www.efax.com). Adobe .pdf (portable
document format) is another good choice for scanned paper
documents. While we don't use it as much, I'm thinking about
heading in that direction because it's such a popular
Scanning especially makes sense for documents that are
physically cumbersome: old fragile drawings, bulky books of tax
maps, and so forth. Instead of trying to scan those in-house,
we pay a reprographics house with specialized equipment to do
it. For instance, it cost me around $100 to get a book of tax
maps scanned and burned onto a CD that I can view on my laptop.
Now, if I want to research a tax map or check out a specific
lot while I'm driving around, I can do it without having to
pull over and fumble through a huge bound book of maps.
BuildSoft schedules and
reports. We use BuildSoft
for basic accounting and job scheduling. Luckily, the program
can generate some html files automatically. The schedule at
right in Figure 4 came directly out of BuildSoft with no
tweaking required. BuildSoft can't generate every report we
need by itself, so we supplement it with Crystal reports
(third-party report-writing software that extends the reach of
certain other programs), which can also generate html files
Proposals and
specifications. Our proposal form is an html page that I
uilt from scratch. I do all proposals strictly online, and the
advantages are so huge that I will never do a conventional
paper proposal again. If I make a mistake on an online copy, I
can change it without worrying about an obsolete paper copy
kicking around, and online proposals leave no written trail of
your pricing or practices for your competitors to use against
you. I can't stop prospects from printing out their in-process
proposal from the web, but it won't have my signature or any
other "official" information on it until they're actually ready
to approve the deal.

Love how your cite proves how retarded you are. The noun there is treasure.
You can't just chop a stock phrase in half and assume that either bit has the same meaning as the original. Do you sit on a longue eating a brulée?
Strictly speaking, trove is an adjective. You cannot have "a trove" any more than you can have "a yellow" or "a miniscule".

Lowcountry native Chris McGuiness was selected with the 5th overall pick of the MLB Rule 5 Draft by the Cleveland Indians during the Winter Meetings on Thursday.
It caps off what has been a breakout season for the James Island native. The 24 year old hit .268 with 23 HR's and 77 RBI for Double-A Frisco of the Texas Rangers organization this year. He followed that up by winning the MVP of the Arizona Fall League after hitting .283 with 4 HR's and a league leading 27 RBI.
Under the rules of the Rule 5 Draft, the Indians must pay the Rangers $50,000 for McGuiness' rights and they must keep him on their 40 man roster all season or else offer him back to Texas for $25,000.
McGuiness spent 2 and a half seasons in the Texas organization after being acquired in a draft day trade with the Boston Red Sox in 2010. Boston selected him with a 13th round pick in the 2009 draft out of The Citadel.
In three seasons with the Bulldogs, McGuiness played in 154 games with 140 starts. He had career totals of 157 hits in 510 at bats (.308 average) with 34 doubles, 27 homers, 108 runs scored, 123 RBIs and 122 walks. He was named 1st team All-SoCon his final as he lead the country in walks.

Like the viewfinder of a camera, windows, doorways, and mirrors shape our views of the world around us. As frames appearing within photographs, they can add to an image's spatial cohesion and composition, and often serve to suggest mood and psychological depth. The current gallery rotation from the Museum's permanent collection features more than sixty photographs that highlight the significant and intricate role that windows, doorways, and mirrors have played throughout photography's 185-year history. In about 1826 French gentleman-scientist Joseph Nicéphore Niépce created what is considered to be the world's first photograph. The one-of-a-kind polished pewter plate, now in the collection of the Harry Ransom Center, University of Texas at Austin, is titled View from the Window at Le Gras and features an outdoor scene composed through a rear window on the upper floor of Niépce's home. Other early photography practitioners such as Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre and William Henry Fox Talbot frequently integrated windows and doorways into their images, and these compositional effects have remained prevalent and meaningful even into the digital age.On the surface, windows and doorways are architectural apertures that permit or restrict the movement of individuals, objects, and even atmosphere; they also allow or deny views into or out of private spaces. More than mere structural boundaries, however, they can be interpreted as psychological membranes embodying the rich tension between acceptance and rejection. Similarly, the mirror has long been used in literature and art to represent concepts such as self-awareness, narcissism, mortality, and alternate realities. As the works on view make clear, windows, mirrors, and doorways in photographs function at times as purely visual devices and at others as metaphors for substantial concepts. Whether transparent or opaque, they serve as gateways to guide viewers toward new and ever-changing territory, in both our interior and exterior worlds.

Was a landowner's language ambiguous when conveying "surface" rights in an early 1900s deed?
This is what West Virginia Supreme Court justices will decide in a case originating from Preston County, which seeks to determine who owns the oil and gas rights in a 225-acre tract of land.
Marvin Morgan filed his complaint for declaratory judgment and alternatively verified petition for sale or lease of mineral interests owned by missing, unknown or abandoning owners Feb. 7, 2011.
Morgan acquired interest in the tract of land in 1967 along with a now-deceased joint tenant. Since the joint tenant's death, Morgan claims he is the sole owner of the tract of land.
Faith United Methodist Church and Novus Exploration entered into a gas lease in 2010 for interest in oil and gas. Trinity Methodist Church also entered into a gas lease in 2010, documents state.
The interest to the property was handed down through different heirs and given to the churches through wills.
The history of this fight stems from 1869 when Calvin Forman became vested in the tract of land from two deeds that conveyed an undivided one-half interest.
When he died, each of his seven children inherited an undivided, one-seventh fee interest in the land. However, five of the children sold their interest in the real estate to their brother Walter Forman.
Morgan is the successor in title to Walter.
Walter Forman's sister, Florence, did not sell her interest until 1907 when she conveyed her one-seventh undivided interest in the surface to her brother.
Meanwhile, defendants Faith United Methodist Church and Cemetery of Terra Alta and Trinity Methodist Church of Terra Alta are seeking to have Florence's heirs receive the oil and gas rights.
Previously, both siblings had sold all the coal under this tract of land. However, the agreement did not reference oil, natural gas or any other minerals, court documents state.
The crux of the case revolves around the words "surface" and "surface only" and whether Florence intended to give up her oil and gas rights or just the part used for agricultural purposes.
Morgan argues the Forman deed serves to define the "surface only" granting language, making it clear that Florence Forman intended to convey her entire undivided interest in the tract of land, including any previously unsevered oil and gas to her brother.
However, defendants argue the "surface only" language is unambiguous and referred to the "part of the earth used for agricultural purposes," and that Florence intended to reserve or sever an undivided one-seventh interest in the oil and gas rights.
The lower court disagreed, saying the record contained no evidence that Florence intended to sever the surface, the order states.
The lower court also determined the language was ambiguous and that Florence took no action to demonstrate intent to retain ownership of the tract of land.
In cases of ambiguity in deed language, the court says the rule is to interpret language "most strongly against the grantor and in favor of the grantee."
Because of that, the court determined Morgan to be the owner.
Faith United Methodist Church and Cemetery of Terra Alta and Trinity Methodist Church of Terra Alta appealed this decision to the state Supreme Court.
In their appeal, the churches argue the word "surface" has a definite meaning, reiterating that the word refers to the portion of land used for agricultural purposes.
The churches say the question isn't whether Florence reserved the oil and gas rights under the property but instead whether the oil and gas rights were conveyed to her brother in the 1907 deed.
However, Morgan argues if Florence really wanted to sever her oil and gas interest from the surface, she would have only conveyed the surface and never mentioned the previous coal severance.
Additionally, Morgan argues Florence also should haven specifically set out that she wanted to reserve the minerals for herself.
Morgan's brief additionally said the court was right to determine the language to be ambiguous and says justices should dismiss the appeal and defer judgment of the circuit court.

Cheap soles!
"I bought these to get me through the winter in the city, and for the most part, they did just fine. However, in less than three months of wear, they soles have worn through. The cracks on the base of the boots allow water in - I had an unpleasant surprise when I wore them today in the rain and wound up with soaked socks by the time I got to work. I wouldn't buy this brand again if this is how quickly their shoes wear through."

Perfect light winter boot!
"I bought these in January when Ohio was getting non-stop snow. They are the perfect combination of style and comfort. They weathered well in the snow and still look great. I do recommend to scotch-guard them just in case. If you live somewhere like Ohio where you generally don't get more than 3-4 inches of snow at a time, I would highly recommend these."

Eminem - Recovery
Production: Alex Da Kid, Boi-1da, DJ Khalil, Emile Haynie, Havoc, Jim Jonsin, Just Blaze, Mr. Porter, Script Shepherd, Supa Dups
Lead Single: Not Afraid
Avg Rating: 4.5 ( 105 total votes )
Recovery is the worst album of Eminem's career. Recovery is the best album of Eminem's career. It's both. That ambiguity may sound like a cop out, and truth be told maybe it is, but in all honesty, I can't remember being as confused about an album as I am about Recovery. Thanks to a newfound sobriety, it features the most mentally stable and mature Eminem we've ever heard, but, as music fans, do we really want a stable and mature Eminem? We certainly didn't want a happily married and domesticated Usher. Recovery is also Eminem's …

DJBooth Album Review
In my review of Eminem's last album, the hyperbolically dark Relapse, I wrote that it was a cathartic work for Em, that he needed to get all that pain out of his system in order to get back to making great music. God I love when I'm right. Whatever its strengths and weaknesses, Recovery is easily the most courageous album of Eminem's career as he stiff arms guest rappers (with one notable exception), delivers his first skit-free album and sonically ventures into everything from hard rock to quasi-ballads. More than a decade after the Slim Shady LP we've heard a lot from Eminem, but we've never heard anything like this.
When Recovery is good, oh f**k is it good. The album's lead single Not Afraid is one of the least likely number one hits in music industry, not because it doesn't sound dope, but because a fearlessly honest track about maintaining sobriety isn't exactly your usual formula for chart success. It's a testament to the strength of Eminem's delivery that he's transformed Not Afraid into a smash, it's an absolutely gripping track, and it's far from the only one on Recovery. The similarly themed Going Through Changes, which fittingly utilizes an Ozzy Osbourne sample, finds Em diving headfirst into a long list of his weaknesses, and the pounding Almost Famous provides an answer to anyone wondering if Em can still come as lyrically vicious as ever. Eminem pours his heart into Recovery, and it's fascinating to listen to it beat.
While Eminem spends much of Recovery proving that he's once again a serious contender for the best rapper alive title, unfortunately the album's production and hooks, particularly when Eminem sings them, fall short. And before you start telling me, as some already have, that the hook and the beat "don't matter," that they're "only a small part of the song," let me offer this analogy: you go to Subway and they make you a delicious looking ham BLT. But then, instead of mayonnaise, they spread some poo on the bread. Are you eating that BLT, even though the poo spread's only a "small part" of the overall sandwich? I thought not. Unfortunately, Eminem serves up more than a couple poo sandwiches on Recovery, even if he does so with the best of intentions, starting with No Love. It's an absolute shame to waste incredible verses from Em and Lil Wayne on a beat that sounds like a joke at worst, and calls too much attention to itself at the least. Even more disappointing is the arena rock Cinderella Man, which finds producer Script Sheperd doing a poor man's Timbaland impression, and Eminem's vocals on You're Never Over are so bad it sounds like he's doing a parody of a cheesy r&b singer. And just like that, what could have been a classic track, becomes an average track.
As long as we're on the topic, while longtime fans were undoubtedly nervous to see pop-rock singer Pink make an appearance on Won't Back Down, the result is one of the album's best tracks, and while the Rihanna-assisted Love the Way You Lie doesn't work as well (listening to Em on a Ne-Yo-esque cut is more than a little strange), its nowhere near as bad as some might fear. But, although I'll argue until the end that these things truly matter, I don't want to get too caught up on the album's specifics. Both personally and professionally Eminem couldn't keep making the same music he did when he was 20, and while Recovery falters, it's dope to hear Eminem moving in a new, and potentially even better, direction. Recovery feels like the album before a truly great album, a warm-up to a classic, and I can't wait to hear what he's cooking up next. Damn, looks like I have a pretty clear opinion on Recovery after all.

Peter Schmuck's final grades for the 2012 Orioles
Baltimore Sun columnist Peter Schmuck offers his final grades for the Orioles' 2012 season. Schmuck's grades are based on each player's performance in relation to his role on the team, his total playing time and his talent level. So, a utilityman who gets a "B" after playing a limited number of games is being graded essentially against himself, not against his teammates or in relation to similar players on other teams.
Image 15 of 43
Darren O'Day( Patrick McDermott, Getty Images / October 8, 2012 )
Unorthodox submariner turned out to be a major wild card in the Orioles' surprising season. He was the glue that held the club's great bullpen together and finished with a 7-1 record and 2.28 ERA in 69 regular season appearances and a 0.00 ERA in five postseason games.
Grade: A
