PLAYERS: Drew Bledsoe
TEAMS: Washington State Cougars
TEAMS: Washington State Cougars
On this day in 1992 The 1992 Apple Cup remains one of the biggest in series history. Photo source: The Seattle Times On a snowy day in Pullman, Wash., No. 25 Washington State won the Apple Cup and ended the national title hopes of No. 5 Washington in a 42-23 stunner. Trailing 7-6 at the half, the Cougars ran away from the Huskies in the third quarter behind two touchdown passes from Drew Bledsoe, a touchdown run by running back Shaume Wright-Fair (22 rushes for 193 yards and three scores) and a fumble recovery by guard Konrad Pimiskern in the end zone to take a decisive 35-7 advantage. Washington rallied in the final frame but it wasn't enough to save a win in the final Pac-10 game of College Football Hall of Fame coach Don James.

Customer Testimonials
Phones were repaired to my satisfaction. Thanks.
We usually have Scott take them down and they are completed and back the next day. Or I will send people down to have their equipment fixed and you bill National Office Furniture for it and it only takes about 1 hour to fix their equipment.
You are very efficient and you stand behind your work!
Your shop has always been knowledgeable and able to fix both my xbox and phones. Every time I have phone questions, the guys take the tome to give me an answer even if I'm not buying anything that day. I don't plan on using any other phone shop.
Fixed our ipod at a good price.
Fair pricing and fast service. Would have liked to have been able to wait on phone for repair, but the store was busy and short a technician and it wasn't that big an inconvenience really.
Quick service!

People are continuously obsessed with sex. And there are two ways to be obsessed with sex: one is the ordinary man's way, the Playboy way; another the so-called religious man's way. But both remain obsessed with lust - one for, the other against. Their constant fixation is sex; neither goes beyond it.
Bauls don't belong to either category. They don't belong to the worldly man because they go beyond sex; they don't belong to the austere man because they are not against sex; they also don't belong to the so-called religious man, the monk, because they say, "Sex is your energy; it has to be used. Of course, it has to be refined, but it has not to be condemned." How can you refine a stone and make a diamond of it if you are condemnatory about it, if you throw it away? And if you start escaping from it, how can you refine it, how can you polish it, how can you make a valuable thing out of it? So there are two types of fixations in the world: the people who think sex is life, and the people who think to fight with sex is life - and both are wrong. To use sex creatively; that is the goal of the Baul.
Mulla Nasruddin constantly irritated his friends with his eternal optimism. No matter how bad the situation, he would always say, "It could have been worse." To cure him of this annoying habit his friends decided to invent a situation so completely black, so dreadful that even Nasruddin could find no hope in it.
Approaching him at the club bar one day, one of them said, "Mulla, did you hear what happened to George? He went home last night, found his wife in bed with another man, shot them both, then turned the gun on himself."
"Terrible," said the Mulla, "but it could have been worse."
"How in the hell," asked his dumbfounded friend, "could it possibly have been worse?"
"Well," said Nasruddin, "if it had happened the day before, I would be dead now."
People are in a rut, repeating the same thing again and again and again. It seems their eyes are completely closed. It seems they have no idea of what is possible. It seems nobody has given them even a glimpse of the beyond. It seems that they have never looked towards the heights. They have not seen the sky; they go on crawling in the mud. Nothing is wrong essentially in the mud; it is beautiful if you can stand in it, rooted, grounded, and your eyes can move towards the heights. Then the very quality of the mud is transformed.
Never plunge into the river of lust, you will not reach the shores. It is a river of no coasts where typhoons rage. And you all must have felt that whatsoever you call love brings misery and nothing else: conflict, agony, suffering. Whatsoever you have called love gives you hell and nothing else. But still, somehow you manage to remain in it, you manage not to see beyond it.

Your doctor may recommend chemotherapy to treat bladder cancer if any of these cases apply to you:
You have a large tumor. Your doctor may use chemotherapy to shrink a large tumor before surgery. Making the tumor smaller makes it easier to take out.
You have stage 0 or stage I bladder cancer with multiple or recurrent tumors. Your doctor may give you chemotherapy after TUR surgery. This can help prevent or delay cancers from coming back. In some cases, the chemotherapy medication may be given directly into the bladder through a tube.
You have stage II bladder cancer. This means the cancer has spread to the muscle layer of your bladder. Your doctor may combine chemotherapy with radiation after you've had surgery. This can help kill cancer cells that may have spread elsewhere in your body.
You have stage III bladder cancer. This means the cancer has spread to the fatty layer of the bladder. And it may have spread to your prostate if you're a man. If you're a woman, it may have spread to your uterus or vagina. Your doctor may give you chemotherapy along with radiation after surgery. This helps kill cancer cells that may have spread elsewhere in your body.
You have stage IV bladder cancer. This means that the cancer has spread to the walls of your abdomen, your pelvis, or an organ far from your bladder. Your doctor may give you a variety of chemotherapy drugs. This is to help kill cancer cells that have spread elsewhere in your body.
Your medical team will review the options appropriate to your condition. To help deal with the medical information and remember all of your questions, it is helpful to bring a family member or close friend with you to doctors' appointments. In addition, bringing a written list of concerns will make it easier for you to remember your questions.

Falcons receiver Julio Jones has left Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals with an ankle injury.
Jones missed practice this week after he sprained his right ankle in last week's loss at New Orleans. He appeared to aggravate the injury late in the third quarter.
The Falcons say Jones' status is questionable for the remainder of the game.
Cornerback Asante Samuel, who left the game in the first quarter with a right shoulder injury, did not return.
Samuel was hurt when making a hit on Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald as Fitzgerald was trying to make a catch in the first quarter. The pass from John Skelton was incomplete.
Samuel walked off the field holding his right arm to his side.

Guilty plea for Manchester man who made escape
Terrance Sleweon is scheduled for sentencing in July and faces up to five years in prison, U.S. Attorney John P. Kacavas said Wednesday in a release announcing the plea. His original sentence on his 2011 conviction of engaging in the distribution of cocaine was only 24 months.
Sleweon was incarcerated at Fort Dix in New Jersey and applied for a furlough in August 2012. The application was approved and Sleweon was ordered to arrive at the Hampshire House on Sept. 27, 2012. He never appeared and authorities were unable to find him until the U.S. Marshals Service received a tip that he was a Manchester residence and found Sleweon in the parking lot there on Nov. 6, 2012.
Prosecutors said Sleweon initially tried to flee, but complied when an officer drew his weapon and ordered him to the ground.

The Workplace Violence Epidemic
In the high-tension hospital atmosphere, threats must be mitigated by diligent adaptation of security policies and procedures
"Workplace violence is part of an epidemic in healthcare now, and line staff — regardless of what unit they work in — must have at least a basic knowledge of how to recognize potential warning signs and how to react appropriately when an incident occurs," he continues. "That's the bare minimum, regardless of facility size, location or hours of operation. Only then can we start looking at the security staffing or engineering controls to help prevent these incidents. Workplace violence isn't something you can solve by putting in a lock and a camera. You have to have the human component with the ability to recognize and report so the proper mitigation can be undertaken."
Michelman agrees that training is the key, and that it must be done right. "Doing fun, dynamic training that people enjoy is the most effective approach. We offer many different training programs, and our goal is to make them enjoyable exercises rather than tedious meetings," she says.
Reporting policies — especially zero-tolerance policies — are a main factor of decreased violence potential noted in the Emergency Nurses Association study, along with management commitment to workplace violence control. The use of a panic button and enclosed nurses' stations, locked/coded emergency department entry, security signage and well-lit areas were also associated with lower levels of physical and verbal violence.
An excellent security staff is a critical element in the reduction of workplace violence incidents as well, Michelman adds. "You need well-trained, educated, competent and committed security staff — really professional people who understand the complexities and nuances of healthcare. They should be compensated well and should have excellent benefits. You have to hire the right people for these jobs. This is a very complex environment, and you need very sophisticated skills.
"I look for people who are very smart, who have a compassionate side," Michelman continues. "They must understand the state that people may be in. (I look for) people that are not easily flustered and don't take things personally — because sometimes it's not pleasant to deal with psych patients in the emergency department or upset visitors. I look for people with a strong ability to multitask and who have the ability to de-escalate people, who have negotiating skills and who are creative about understanding the types of risks we face."
Recognition of Hospitals as Soft Targets
While increased workplace violence is clearly on most hospitals' minds, other trends have sometimes slipped under the radar. The terrorist threat is one of them. "Hospitals can be soft targets," says Michelman, who is also a member of the Department of Homeland Security's Advisory Council. "There are a lot of people in one place, and sometimes they are people others aren't too happy with. They may be doing research in areas someone doesn't agree with — there are radical groups against different types of research. Or there may be an individual or a domestic terrorist who believes a particular hospital was responsible for the death or severe injury of a family member."
In addition, Warren says that hospitals play a crucial role in critical infrastructure, which heightens their target potential. "What happens if you have a bombing in your community followed by an attack on the hospital? That certainly limits your ability to treat the injured, and it adds to the psychological impact of a terrorist attack," he says. Larger hospitals also contain equipment or radioactive source material that could be converted to weapons, he adds.
Planning for such events must be integrated into strong continuity plans, which all hospitals should test and maintain. "The best advice is to plan for an all-hazards approach, make sure all your plans, regardless of the source of the incident, can be put into effect, and make sure your plans are able to withstand any one of the many threats," Warren says.
Preventing Data Breaches
Another risk trend many hospitals have clearly left unaddressed or incomplete, is data loss. One might think that the longstanding HIPAA data protection rules would have by now prompted notable advances in the security of private health information, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Privacy Rights Clearinghouse (www.privacyrights.org) data shows that the healthcare industry suffered more reported information breaches in 2011 than any other industry category. Ponemon Institute's Second Annual Benchmark Study on Patient Privacy & Data Security found that the number and frequency of data breaches in healthcare have risen, as has the number of records stolen or lost per breach. Employee mistakes, loss or theft of computing devices, and third-party errors were the three top causes of data breaches, the study found.

Nick Compton scored his first Test century and Alastair Cook his 24th as England fought back brilliantly in the opening Test against New Zealand.
Faced with a first-innings deficit of 293, their opening stand of 231 led the tourists to 234-1 – trailing by 59 – at the close of day four in Dunedin.
Captain Cook fell for 116 late on but Compton's unbeaten 102 leaves England well-placed to save the game.
Earlier, Brendon McCullum's rapid 74 helped New Zealand declare on 460-9. Read more

Great Family Vacation!
June 25, 2014
On my way home from here and sad to leave. This cabin was a great way to enjoy the great outdoors while sleeping indoors! Jerry and Shirley were great hosts and made us feel welcome to use the property as our own. The cabin was fully furnished- we had 5 kids ages 2-7 and 4 adults and the guesthouse met our needs. The well-stocked kitchen was appreciated and the large sunroom with indoor grill was a pleasure. The TV room was nice for down-time when the kids protested naps. I couldn't say enough about the outdoor space- a sure adventure area for kids to roam and explore the large hills and fields. We brought a slip and slide and water guns- highly recommended! There was a large driveway with sandbox quality sand and the kids had a blast with sand toys there. The kids swam in the shallow dock area as well. I took a refreshing walk around the property (before the kids woke up). Up the hill was a breathtaking view of the lake and nearby properties. I then walked to the field and saw 3 deer, checked out the chicken coop, smelled the gorgeous peony flowers in the garden, and lastly sat down by the dock near the still morning water- priceless peace! At night we loved the bonfire area near the cabin. It was especially nice that we could monitor the cabin from the bonfire area after the kids went to bed. We didn't have to use mosquito spray due to the previous cold winter. Clam Lake was large enough to ez-ski, tube, and fish on. Torch Lake is attached to this lake but we spent most of our time on Clam Lake because Torch was so large and cold in June. Would return and highly recommend for a family vacation!

Wonderful location and host
September 10, 2013
We stayed for a week as Jerry's guests and were genuinely sad when we left -- not just because vacation was ending, but because we knew we'd miss Jerry and his sweet dog, Lady. The property is beautiful; the location is central to so many great places; and the boat ran perfectly. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Lots of fun at the lake
July 30, 2013
We were so very happy with our host, treated us like family, didn't want for anything the entire week. Cabin was just what we were expecting and very clean. The location gave us the quiet of being in the woods and the convenience of being on the lake, we never expected the negative thing of not being right on the water would turn out to be such a positive. Once again our special thanks to Shirley and Jerry. We will be calling soon to book next year.

the ice has finally left after a long cold winter, water level is up and the fish are fat and sassy. The dock is in and ready for your boat. Hope to see you in the summer .
Time to think about spring fishing. The fish have hid under the ice all winter and should be fat, sassy and ready to bite.

Celebrity Eco-Friendly Tips
The healthy breakthrough that's made Julia Roberts glow. Plus: Kate Hudson, Jennifer Aniston, and other stars share their strategies for living an eco-smart life
Julia Roberts doesn't seem to want for much — she's got a happy marriage, beautiful children, an incredible career. And the woman who has it all must know it all too, right? Wrong. The star is quick to list the litany of daily dilemmas that plague a lot of us, as she recently revealed: "I am a wife and mother of three. My days are busy and fun and full of questions that need answers. What to wear? What to cook for breakfast? Is your blanket my responsibility? Paper or plastic? Has anyone seen my keys? Why is your sister crying? What time will you be home? Where to start?"
Luckily, Roberts found just the right person to answer that last question. Though she had considered herself fairly eco-savvy, she nevertheless began to feel that she wasn't doing enough to protect her family — or her planet. She wants to raise her three kids, twins Hazel and Finn, 4, and son Henry, 1, to be healthy, conscientious people who are aware of their impact on the Earth, but it seemed a daunting task. Enter Sophie Uliano, a passionate environmentalist and yoga instructor who quickly became Julia's go-to "green guru for advice on living green while looking great.
A petite, blond dynamo with a lilting British accent, Uliano is a Mary Poppins for the new millennium: Rather than advocating a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down, Uliano will recommend rubbing sugar on your skin to increase its glow — and then offer numerous other homegrown tips and tricks. It's no wonder Roberts has said she immediately felt that her life was about to change: "This is what I've been waiting for...someone to tell me what to do!"
For Uliano, living green comes naturally. "I was raised in England, with a mother who grew our vegetables in a garden and dried our clothes outside," she says. "But when I moved to Los Angeles, obviously I made some compromises. Because of the yoga work I was doing with celebrities, it was like I had a Jimmy Choo in one world and a Birkenstock sandal in the other. So I wanted to find a way to bridge those two worlds."
The result was the new book Gorgeously Green, in which Uliano offers an eight-step program for living healthier without having to become a "crunchy granola, Earth-mother type who never wears makeup.... That's not the sort of woman I'm talking about," Uliano says with a laugh. Instead, she's talking about someone a lot like Roberts, who got an early draft of Uliano's book and was an instant fan — so much so that she wound up writing the foreword. Not long after, the two women set up a "green group" for Roberts and her closest girlfriends, who gathered at Roberts's home to learn about everything from nontoxic nail polish to safer cleansers.

Though Repair Affair is an event that shows how volunteers extend a helping hand to someone who may not be able to do a needed repair around the house, the 2011 Women4Women Repair Affair team will begin early Saturday, June 11th with Councilwoman Tina Ward-Pugh (D-9) and more than 30 volunteers.
"Six weeks ago, I stumbled onto knowing that The Center needed two floors of their facility painted," says Ward-Pugh. "I asked New Directions if our Women4Women Repair Affair Team could be the answer. They said, yes."
The 2011 W4W Repair Affair kicks off Saturday at 7:30am with a continental breakfast at the Center for Women and Families with lunch also provided by New Directions. In her 13th year as Honorary Chair for the W4W Repair Affair Team, the Councilwoman will lead volunteers to paint the walls, doors and hand rails for 2 floors at The Center.
"This is a chance for those of us with these type skills to put a fresh coat of donated Porter Paint on the walls where some 240+ women and children call home," says Ward-Pugh. "We are proud that this is the 35th "home" that W4W has painted over the 13 years and we intend to keep painting as long as New Directions has a need and we are able."
For more information about the 2011 Repair Affair, contact Councilwoman Ward-Pugh's office at 574-1109 or 333-4644. Sponsor:Tina Ward-Pugh (D) 9

It actually still is in stock, but for some reason Polyvore linked to the wrong dress… you can find the actual dress here!
Nope! I am not.
Yes I will definitely do some this month!
Are you looking for a River dress from a specific episode?
No I don't know of any! Though that is an awesome idea for a blog. She has fantastic style!
Does anyone know of a Karen Gillan style blog? Let me know!
Thank you so much!
And half of these awesome ideas come from you guys! Some of these things I just don't think of, but you do, and you make it epic!
ALL OF YOU. The Companion Clothes community is awesome :)
That sounds so awesome!
I love that idea.
The submit box is now open for anyone interested in doing this.
Show off your awesome Whovian style!
Good to know?
I can't say I know much about haircuts.
My suggestion would be to find a character from the show with a haircut you like/think would look flattering on you, and take in a picture of them when you go to get your hair cut!
I can't say I am an expert on hair, sorry! That's the best I can do :)
For whoever was wondering, there you go!
Sadly I do not!
But as with the question about Merlin outfits, if anyone knows of a good polyvore tumblr that does Harry Potter outfits, let me know and I will spread the word!
Perhaps paint the sides like the doors of the TARDIS? Or put a sign on the top that says "Police Box" like on the top of the TARDIS.
I try to keep most of the items that I use in outfits relatively inexpensive, but if you ever want an outfit on a specific budget, just send me a request with what outfit, what gender, and "under $(whatever price)".

Friday Face-Offs, 2/11/2011
David Singleton | Feb 11, 2011 | Comments 2
The big news for Predators fans was yesterday's trade that brought Mike Fisher from the Ottawa Senators to Nashville for their 2011 1st round draft pick and a conditional 2012 draft pick.
Predators Import Mike Fisher from Ottawa
My first reaction to the trade was that it was "horrible" (twice actually).
Was I overreacting? To a point, yes. From all appearances, Mike Fisher is a prototypical Predator in style. He's an extremely hard worker and a very good two-way player that can chip in 20 – 25 goals a season. He also brings significant playoff experience to the table as well as size. Finally, he's a player of very high character.
Beyond that, what will Mike Fisher bring to this Predator club? Since Mike Fisher is no rental, there are two parts to that answer- this season and then the following seasons.
For this season, Nashville has definitely improved itself down the middle. Prior to Fisher being acquired, Nashville was icing only two centers with the offensive skills to be considered "two-way" players in David Legwand and Marcel Goc. Out of necessity due to injury, Nick Spaling (and previously Chris Meuller) had to man the pivot on Nashville's third scoring/two-way line. Spaling is a fantastic role player, but his current spot in the lineup isn't the role in which he excels.
The first change will likely be the move of Spaling back to Smithson and Ward's line, reuniting an extremely good forechecking line that frustrated and dominated opponents practically every night. Ultimately, I think you'll see Fisher centering Sergei Kostitsyn and Martin Erat as he'll bring more size to that line and increase their ability to score over that of Marcel Goc. Goc would then center a line of Steve Sullivan and either Dumont or Svatos. Initially, however, Trotz may ease Fisher into the lineup by leaving the top two lines intact and letting Fisher center Dumont and Sullivan. Either way, Nashville will ice three respectable two-way lines that can play against any line and contribute offensively.
From a power play standpoint, Fisher likely moves right into the second unit to provide another big body in front of the net and scoring presence.
Next season, however, will be interesting. Working on the assumption that Lombardi returns, that leaves Lombardi, Legwand and Fisher to man those three scoring line pivots. That's incredibly formidable. It also leaves Marcel Goc and Cal O'Reilly seemingly out in the cold. David Poile somewhat addressed that issue in stating that any of the centers could shift to wing, and he's right. The problem is that only one wing spot would seem to be open at all if Steve Sullivan is not re-signed (I'm also assuming that Ward is not re-signed either allowing Tootoo to slide into his spot, and that Sergei Kostitsyn will be re-signed). I don't think you'll see Patric Hornqvist, Colin Wilson, Martin Erat, J.P. Dumont, or Sergei Kostitsyn lose their spot on those scoring lines. Nashville also might like what they see from a healthy Marek Svatos down the line as well. It's going to be very tough, barring additional moves or offseason losses, for a forward prospect to force their way onto the team next season.
So, if Mike Fisher has all those good qualities as a player and a person, why would I overreact and call the trade "horrible"? I see this as low risk move with likely low rewards. It's low risk because there's no doubt that financially the Predators can handle contract with no impact to potential contracts to Shea Weber or Ryan Suter. David Poile also didn't have to part with any roster player or prospects. All Poile had to part with was a very late (he hopes) first round pick for a draft in which he's got two 2nd round picks and a conditional pick in the next draft.
I see it as a likely low-rewards move because I think it makes Nashville's chances to get out of the first round better, but not overly so. My overreaction was based upon my frustration in feeling that Nashville is still not ready to take an even more moderate level of risk for a higher reward. They have an enormous stockpile of talent with which to barter. Yet, they will ultimately be forced to move some of those players like they did with Mike Santorelli and Rich Peverly, and because it was forced, not get a maximum return.
To be fair, I'm not sure that Nashville could have done much better. With the injuries, acquiring a center became a critical need. Mike Fisher really was one of the top centers available, maybe the top center available. There are really only two other potential options with Jason Arnott and maybe Tim Connolly (Buffalo is likely not a seller at this point though, hence the maybe). The beauty of both of those is that they would be rentals, even though their styles don't fit as well as Fisher.
In the end, they've improved the team for this season likely at the cost of one or both of Marcel Goc and Cal O'Reilly. It's a significant improvement this year due to the injuries down the middle. It's not a significant improvement down the middle from last season with Arnott, Legwand and Goc. Of course, Arnott was hampered by injuries too.
The Week That Was
Overall, Nashville had a good week with two solid wins against the Red Wings. Of course, in the middle of that Wings sandwich was a horrible loss to Edmonton. Everyone knows that this team needs to learn to beat those teams they are supposed to beat. I'll leave it that.
The Week Ahead for Nashville
Tomorrow night, Nashville starts a very important four game home stand. Every team they will play is very much still in competition against Nashville for one of the coveted playoff spots.
Nashville must take advantage of their heavy schedule of home games the rest of the way, especially against those right on their heels (or slightly above) them in the standings.

This is a very low risk trade with a potentially very high reward.
Center depth is a hard thing to achieve. True, they don't have an elite playmaking center but who does.
Centers that can adapt to wing are a dime a dozen. Try finding a wing that can play center. Not so easy.

One word comes to mind when I laid eyes on OCZ's Enyo USB 3.0 Portable Solid State Drive: drool. Yeah, that's not really a word; more a feeling. Queue the Reservoir Dogs soundtrack. Moving on shall we.
So what is the Enyo USB 3.0 Portable Solid State Drive? Exactly what the name says. An external solid state hard drive that has all the benefits of flash memory (speed, ruggedness) with a USB 3.0 interface for ultra fast read/write times. It's just too bad there's no one around to buy it, at least not yet.
There's no word on a price or launch date.

Last January, the Calgary Flames were floundering and fading out of the Western Conference playoff picture. To shake things up, they traded defenceman Dion Phaneuf to the Maple Leafs - the star name in a monster six-player deal.
While the Flames were giving up the most talented player, one of the four players they received was defenceman Ian White, who, while not as skilled as Phaneuf, was expected to offset the loss with a complete all-around game.
But less than 10 months later, White is off to Carolina along with Brett Sutter - traded for Anton Babchuk and Tom Kostopoulos. White was struggling this season, a team-worst minus-10 and the Flames are just 7-9. Only Edmonton has fewer points than Calgary in the Western Conference.
The Flames say it was primarily a salary move. With big dollars already invested in Jay Bouwmeester, Robyn Regehr, Cory Sarich and the freshly-inked Mark Giordano, there was no way they would have the dollars to re-sign White.
With one of their biggest trading chips gone and only Matt Stajan and Niklas Hagman remaining to show for the Phaneuf deal, coupled with a sluggish start to this campaign, you could argue that the Flames are worse off than they were last January.
Here was Dave's question to you: "Following the Ian White trade, what should be the Calgary Flames' next move?"
And here are the answers that Dave liked best:
"Trading Jarome Iginla would give him a chance to play for a contender and would give the Flames something they haven't had since Darryl Sutter took over - the need and the opportunity to actually rebuild the team." - Jason, Calgary
"They should sit tight and ride the bumpy road. The Sutters especially know you don't just pack up and sell the farm." - Pete, Fort McMurray, AB
"Brett Sutter was a start. Now we have to get rid of two more Sutters." - Angelo, TSN/Facebook
"Call the Leafs and start talking trade. That worked well the last couple of times, right?" - Joe, Toronto
"It's Movember - bring back Lanny McDonald." - Brian, Ottawa
And here is Dave's reply to all:
Don't dither on Iginla.
There are three views of a potential Jarome Iginla trade: Don't do it; don't do it, yet; and do it as fast as you can. I'm at door number three. Never mind that he's the face of the franchise - the franchise needs a new face. Never mind the theory that the trade deadline is the time to get full return for Iggy, or that an Iginla trade means surrender - it would say just the opposite to me if the Flames did it soon. It wouldn't and shouldn't be done easily, but what's the alternative? To hope that the team can be made better with more Ian White trades? Life after Iginla for the Flames, and vice versa, seems inevitable. I'm guessing life will be better for both.

While I was there I was able to do a little exploring and I brought along my new Fuji x-e1 and Fuji 35mm lens. All of these images were shot in JPEG with Fuji's in-camera film simulation. This means NO post processing! Hallelujah. I am excited about the quality of the images and about the look of Fuji's film simulation. This is definitely my new travel/walk around camera. The days of lugging an SLR around are OVER! For those of you who have a Fuji- most of these images were the provia simulation with the highlight tone at -2 and the shadow tone at -1. Thanks to my bud Michael for being my model in a bunch of these.

Yes, we're properly obsessed with Janelle Monae's recent single "Q.U.E.E.N." (with assistance from Erykah Badu, of course), and the video is shaping up to be promising — even just based on the thirty seconds of footage that Monae premiered as a sort of teaser. Why, you ask? Because Monae is getting primped and pampered in a tuxedo by a host of handlers, and she's the rare artist who actually has the charisma and stage presence to just stand there doing nothing and command your attention. The competition could never.
The video premieres in full on BET's 106 & Park later today (May 1). Watch the teaser up top.
Are you stoked for Janelle's latest? Sound off in the comments, then let us know what you think on Facebook and Twitter.

From Oranges are not the only fruit by Jeanette Winterson
"That glimpse has set me wandering, trying to find the balance between the earth and sky"
"As it is, I can't settle, I want someone who is fierce and will love me until death and know that love is strong as death, and be on my side forever and ever. I want someone who will destroy and be destroyed by me."
"Romantic love has been diluted into paperback form and has sold thousands and millions of copies. Somewhere it is all in the original, written on tablets of stone. I would cross seas and suffer sunstroke and give away all I have."
"One thing I am certain of, I do not want to be betrayed, but that's quite hard to say casually, at the beginning of a relationship. It's not a word people use often, which confuses me, because there are different kinds of infidelity, but betrayal is betrayal wherever you find it. By betrayal, I mean promising to be on your side, and then being on someone else's."

Officers and Boston Pizza Serve Up a Great Time
10-Dec-2008 08:42 PST
Print Article
Members of the Durham Regional Police Service from 19 Division Ajax/Pickering were at the Pickering Boston Pizza restaurant on Tuesday, December 9th, 2008 for a fundraiser in support of the DRPS Food and Toy Drive.
Uniformed and civilian members from the D.R.P.S. partnered with servers, hosts and staff to serve meals inside the restaurant. Chief Mike Ewles and Deputy Chief Sherry Whiteway were on hand at lunch to help out with the Drive.
Boston Pizza donated a percentage of the daily sales back to the Food and Toy Drive.
Donations of canned foods and new unwrapped toys will also be accepted by staff at the restaurant.
Below are attached files.

Colt McCoy's NFL career started off on a disappointing note — he wasn't drafted until late in the third round by the Cleveland Browns, and that was after the Browns said they would take him higher. Colt struggled in the preseason and went into the year as the team's third stringer. After sitting on the bench the first five weeks of the year, starter Jake Delhomme and backup Seneca Wallace hurt their ankles, leaving McCoy as the only healthy Cleveland quarterback for week six.
Colt had the tough task of facing the Steelers in his NFL debut, but he didn't play poorly. He had 281 yards, a touchdown, and two interceptions against the best defense in the league at the time. McCoy appeared to be a revelation after that; he didn't turn over the ball his next three starts, leading the Browns to upset wins over the Saints and Patriots, and a near win over the Jets.
McCoy hurt his ankle and missed two weeks, but he returned to start the final three games of the year for the Browns — all losses. He was intercepted three times in back-to-back starts, albeit against the strong defenses of Baltimore and Pittsburgh. It took two months, but McCoy finally began to endure typical rookie struggles. Now the question is whether McCoy is still the franchise quarterback he appeared to be, or just another average quarterback.

Fuel Economy (city/hwy)
Short Take Road Test: 2008 Infiniti G35xS
By Tony Swan of Car and Driver
It's no secret we tend to prefer cars with manual transmissions, and that we think less mass is invariably mo' bettah. Still, when your luxury sports sedan is also your daily driver, there are times — slithering through wintry slush up the corkscrew ramp from the Lincoln Tunnel, for example — when all-wheel drive and a smooth automatic look pretty damn appealing.
The "x" here denotes all-wheel drive, which invariably adds bulk. Our test car weighed 3856 pounds, which is at least 230 pounds more than any G35 Sport (the only G35 manual) tested recently, and much of that added mass is up front, for a weight bias — 55.8 percent front/44.2 percent rear — that's almost three percent heftier at the nose than that of the rear-drive car.
But none of this matters much in the real world. The G35xS scooted to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds, about the same as G35 Sports we've tested recently. Similarly, the G35xS gets a lower EPA highway score (23 mpg) than the other G-cars, but our results, particularly in cars with a sporty persona, are usually well below federal forecasts. We averaged 17 mpg with the G35xS, better than the 14 mpg delivered by one of the Sport models.
Speaking of sporty, the "S" appended to the model designation tells you this car had the optional ($1100) Sport package, which includes deep-bolstered front bucket seats, 18-inch alloy wheels wearing Dunlop SP Sport Maxx M+S tires, and magnesium paddle shifters. Suspension tuning is unchanged, but the G35 is agile as is, and the big shift paddles — fixed position, rather than rotating with the steering wheel — are easy to use in hard cornering. The five-speed transmission is smooth in auto mode and holds shifts on the redline if the driver so chooses.
All in all, it's a satisfying sedan, with just a couple caveats. For one, the automatics offered with comparable AWD sedans — Audi A4 3.2 Quattro, BMW 335xi, Mercedes C-class Sport 4MATIC — have extra forward speeds. More important, at $35,065, the basic G35x holds a nice price advantage versus the Audi and the BMW. But the $40,615 as-tested price of this car is a harder sell.

Michael Shermer - The Threat of Pseudoscience
This half hour lecture is from the McGill University's Lorne Trottier Public Science Symposium on the confrontation and threat of pseudoscience in contemporary society. As a leading figure in this movement, Dr. Michael Shermer is more than qualified to speak on many of the issues. His down-to-earth style coupled with his laundry list of first hand encounters with the baloney of our day make this presentation (as well as many of his others) an absolute treat to watch.
I myself do not own the copyright to this material. As stated previously, this was filmed, funded, and produced by McGill University, and so far as I can tell, this is their intellectual property. I have uploaded it here so that it may reach a greater audience and showcase the truly great work of the presenter and the hosts. If anyone should wish for me to take it down, I would oblige.

Amazing route. Very intimidating/overhanging. Abbed in during a hailstorm adding to the adventure. Tat is looking pretty poor but can be backed up. Unassumingly goey through all the steepness. We preplaced a belay rope which took a while to locate and made access tricky. I'd recommend taking a solid belay on the lip of the steepness, then doing a relatively solid 5m pitch to the top ledge to then skirt out left around the mud/choss wall. As good as Lean Machine with the crux right where you want it.Alex Mason - Lead O/S - 11/Apr/12 with Luke Tickle
Well done Alex, my neck hurt belaying this one, this was steep!! What an adventure, hailing whilst abbing into an E5 over the big sea is never a comforting feeling!

Happy New Year
Best wishes to all for a wonderful 2014!
Best wishes to all for a wonderful 2014!
For those of you who subscribe to my blog and haven't heard from me in a long time, I thought I would reach out and send you an update.
I've really undergone considerable life changes over the course of the past year. I haven't been reading and posting reviews of books. In fact, I've hardly read at all. (If you can believe it, I'm probably the only woman alive who hasn't read the Fifty Shades of Grey).
I've been busy at work and in raising my twin teenage daughters. They just turned 16 in May. It's quite a different dynamic in the house now with the two of them. I'm not sure that I was 100% prepared for raising teens on my own.
I've somewhat lost my passion for reading and writing. It's been suggested that I was once happiest when I was working on my hobbies like this blog which I put so many years, blood, sweat, and tears into. Perhaps delving back into writing would be just what the doctor ordered.
Work has been challenging and I just feel at the end of my day that the last place I want to be is back on my computer. I guess that's the biggest reason I've been avoiding my blog. That, and I've been watching far too much television and spending less and less time with books. There are still stacks around the house awaiting a review from me. They are so dated now that I'm not sure anybody would be interested in my review of them at this late of a date.
I've fell out of touch with the wonderful publishers who sent me works of art to read and review. So, if I elect to start reviewing books again, it will be from my own stock and I'll be re-building my site "from scratch."
I do miss networking with all of the other book review bloggers who I made such great connections with. If you happen to be one of them and you are reading this entry, I hope that you are doing well and still enjoying your blogging!
So, for this Friday… I thought I would just check-in and let everybody know that I'm still alive and well. Perhaps I will start blogging on some of my new favorite shows like I used to.
Have a wonderful weekend, and, if you are still out there and a reader, drop me a line.

When she was five years old, on a warm summer night in rural Virginia, Maggie Green's life was ripped apart. Three of her mother's college students showed up on their property. They had been drinking and beneath the surface, her mother sensed menace lurking. Words were exchanged and a life-changing altercation ensued.
Ten years later Maggie is in high school, still plagued by nightmares of that night, which ended in a bloody and violent death. Further adding to her angst is a new challenge: geometry. She's struggling in math and the teacher makes Maggie extremely uncomfortable, never making eye contact and passing her cryptic notes. What Maggie discovers about her teacher and what her teacher discovers about her will mesmerize readers of Laura Brodie's novel of punishment, penance, and remorse.
Excerpt from Berkley Trade
This haunting book grasps the reader from the very beginning. Every mother's nightmare unexpectantly occurs while Emma's daughter is asleep upstairs as this college professor is confronted by three drunk students at her front door late at night. A 5-year old Maggie, after witnessing her mother's violent behavior in an act of self-protection, crawls out of her bedroom window and hides in the forest which surrounds their secluded home.
Several years later, Maggie is in high school and still seeing a psychiatrist for the childhood trauma. She still experiences nightmares and can't seem to open up to her counselor. She is a loner who entrusts very few people around her. She discovers one day that she recognizes her Geometry teacher as one of the college students who was at the house on that fateful night. The entire story begins to unfold when Maggie lets her teacher know that she remembers who she is.
What kept the pages turning is the way that the story revealed itself in such an unconventional way. Nothing about this story was predictable! Reading the story from the viewpoints of both Emma and Maggie, you can feel the hurt and regret of both characters. The aftermath of just the events of one evening changed lives forever. What was done could not be undone. Finding redemption and forgiveness is all that one could hope for after such a horrific and tragic event.
This book found its way into my mind and heart. This drama kept my attention at nights and during stolen moments which I was able to find some quiet time. The characters were expertly developed and the reveal of the story was mesmerizing. My only regret is that it took me much longer to finish this book than I would have liked to (and, that's not due to the book, but rather my schedule of late). I would recommend this book to avid readers for a change in pace as this is a different breed of dramatic fiction. To learn more about this book and author, visit http://www.laurabrodieauthor.com/.

This is the saga of the Perl Family. The family hierarchy starts with Uncle Meyer who is an immigrant tailor and his nephew is Nathan, a fabric-cutter and the patriarch of the family. Nathan and his second wife, Lillian, raise: Jackie, a lawyer, who makes his way into politics despite his tendency to drink and gamble; Michael an entrepeneur who prides himself on providing well for his family; Elaine who is a wife, mother and school teacher who is hoping for more out of life; Stephen a succesful French teacher and author who struggles with his sexual preference; and Roberta ("Bobbie") who is the rebel of the family who creates a succesful career in the music industry despite the odds.
The story of this family commences in 1963 and the novel takes you through the lives of each of these characters through 2001.
This novel was a tale of a Jewish family who loved each other not only for themselves, but despite themselves. They held onto family traditions as much as they held onto one another for support and love through the triumphs and the tragedies of their lives. Although it took me a bit of time to get the cast of characters familiarized, once I did, I was hooked on their stories. Each character found a way into my head and my heart in such a way that I found myself wishing the best for them, feeling sorry for them, and wanting to discover what the next events in their lives were. The span of history throughout the book reminded me of the cultural and political changes that our country has been through in that span of 40 years including the Vietnam War, the sexual revolution, musical eras, women's lib, civil rights and 9/11.
Although it took me a bit longer to read through this novel, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I find that the richness of the characters drew me into the book in such a way that they will remain memorable long after my finish of the book. The book was very well written, polished, and maintained all the elements that you would want out of a family history novel. Again, the best part of the experience were the characters themselves.
I understand that Peter Lefcourt drew from his own family experiences in writing this novel. I admire the way in which Lefcourt shared the tale of this family. If you want a good book which you can really sink your teeth into and relive American history through the eyes of this dynamic family, I highly recommend this one. I was emotionally moved by many components of the book, especially the dramatic ending. Here's to hoping that you have a Kindle!

Madeline, Avery and Nicole, the unlikely friends from Ten Beach Road, have hit some speed bumps in their lives, but when they arrive in Miami's South Beach neighborhood, they are all hoping for a do-over. Literally. They've been hired to bring a once-grand historic house back to its former glory on a new television show called Do-Over. A lot hinges on the success of the DIY program. For Nikki, it would mean getting back on her feet financially. For Avery, it's a chance to restart her ruined career. And Maddie hopes it will give her a shot at keeping her family together.
At least, that's the plan—until they realize that having their work broadcast is one thing, but having their personal lives play out on TV is another story entirely. Soon they're struggling to hold themselves and the renovation together, even as a decades-old mystery—and the hurricane season—loom on the horizon, threatening not only the project but everything that's brought them together.

After reading and reviewing Ten Beach Road by Wendy Wax, I was excited at the opportunity to review its sequel, Ocean Beach. The same delightful cast of characters return along with their supporting characters (mom, baby and boyfriends are in tow). After completing the renovation of Bella Flora at Ten Beach Road, they were awarded a reality television show in which they renovate other dilapidated, historic homes. Only this time, Livetime television has a camera crew in place recording their every move. Their new project is a home named The Millicent in South Beach, Florida which is owned by an old-time comedian, Max, who was famous with his wife back-in-the-day.
Nikki tries her hand at her private match-making services again, all the while she is being pursued by Special Agent Joe Giraldi, the government agent who was involved in capturing Malcolm Dyer. Maddie's daughter, Kyra, is faced with the protection of her "love child" with the famous Daniel Deranian from the press. When Daniel comes to town with his famous wife and adopted children, he wants to meet baby Dustin and it's up to Kyra to keep this so-called reunion from the cameras and press. Maddie is also faced with trying to keep her family together as her husband, Steve, makes it very clear that he is not in support of her continuing to work now that he is re-employed and able to support their family. What Steve doesn't understand is that this is her passion and she gets a sense of value and accomplishment from being a part of the project. Not to mention, Maddie wants to be there for Kyra and baby Dustin. Avery struggles with living with her mother, Diedre, who has made it her mission to repair their very-damaged relationship. Avery's love affair with Chase, the general contractor who she met during the renovation of the last house, continues. She just wants to ensure that she is able to prove herself as a designer and renovation specialist.
All the ladies continue to bond nightly at sunset and share both their struggles and triumphs. What's lovely about this book is the opportunity to join them with a glass of wine after work and read about their adventures!
This is my first 2012 summer read and I have enjoyed my quiet time with a memorable cast of characters and new intriguing plot line. Like it's predecessor, Ten Beach Road, this novel provides dimension to each of the characters and sets forth their inner most desires and fears in the delivery of a great story. For your summer beach-read list, this makes the top 10.
