In the aftermath of the Montreal Canadiens' 3-2 overtime win over the New York Rangers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference final, defenceman P.K. Subban talked about goaltender Dustin Tokarski and made a comparison between the rookie and a Hall of Famer with a handful of Stanley Cup rings.
"He reminds me of Grant Fuhr," Subban said. "I'm not saying he's Grant Fuhr, but he has that same ability to make the big save at the right time.
"I have a gold medal because of him," noted Subban, who was Tokarski's teammate when Canada won the world junior championship in 2009. "I saw him give up four or five goals in a game, but he'd make that big save that gave you the win. He wasn't even our No. 1 goaltender going into the tournament - that was Chet Pickard - but he was in there when we won the gold."
Subban and Tokarski, who hails from Watson, weren't even born when Fuhr and the Edmonton Oilers
began their run of five Stanley Cups in seven years from 1984 to 1990. But Subban knows the history of the game and he's right-on with his description of Fuhr, who made it into the Hall of Fame with a career goals-against average of 3.38. Playing in a more wide-open era, Fuhr was known for making the key save in a 6-5 game and for raising his level of play in the playoffs.
There isn't a large enough body of work to project Tokarski as a star in the making, but he has shown why Michel Therrien and Canadiens management have described him as a winner.
The Canadiens are still alive because Tokarski settled down and stopped the final 13 shots he faced Tuesday night as Montreal outscored the Rangers 7-4. That cut New York's lead in the best-of-seven series to 3-2, which means the Canadiens will face another elimination game Thursday night at Madison Square Garden.
While Tokarski was flawless in the third period, it was a save early in the first period that had folks buzzing. Martin St. Louis set up Carl Hagelin on a two-on-one break, but Tokarski showed his quickness as he slid across the net and Hagelin's shot deflected off the shaft of his stick. "I heard a noise, but I didn't know it was the puck," Tokarski said after the game. "I thought maybe it was my stick hitting the crossbar."
Tokarski's aggressiveness may have backfired on one or two goals, but he emerged as the winner on a night that wasn't kind to goaltenders. Henrik Lundqvist, who had a history of struggling at the Bell Centre before winning Games 1 and 2 in this series, reverted to form and was yanked midway through the second period after giving up four goals.
Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said he brought in backup Cam Talbot to change the momentum, but admitted the ploy didn't work.
It didn't work because Rene Bourque scored twice to snap a 4-4 tie and complete his first playoff hat trick.
If comparing Tokarski and Fuhr seems to be a stretch, nobody would mistake Bourque for Wayne Gretzky or Mark Messier. But Bourque played his best game in a Canadiens uniform in Game 5 and could easily have scored another goal or two. As it is, Bourque leads the Canadiens with eight goals in the playoffs. To put that in perspective, he scored nine goals in 63 regular-season games.
Bourque's offensive explosion was a surprise to many, but not to coach Therrien.
"You know what? In the end of the regular season, we saw Rene engaged in the game a lot more, moving his feet, being physical, going hard to the net," Therrien said after practice Wednesday. "He's doing a lot of good things. You can't expect a player to score three goals every night or even score every game. But even when he doesn't score, he's playing solid hockey. He's getting involved physically. And last night, for me, it was leadership. It was a huge game for us. He came up big, and that's good not only for him, but for us. I really appreciate his effort last night."

By Meghashyam Mali - 12/10/12 12:39 AM EST
President Obama on Sunday honored a member of a U.S. special forces unit killed in an operation to free a Taliban-held American citizen in Afghanistan.
In a statement released by the White House, Obama praised the special-forces operators and said their mission was "characteristic of the extraordinary courage, skill and patriotism that our troops show every day."
"He gave his life for his fellow Americans, and he and his teammates remind us once more of the selfless service that allows our nation to stay strong, safe and free."
The White House did not identify the operator killed in the mission.
In a separate statement, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta also praised the lost service member.
"In this fallen hero, and all of our special operators, Americans see the highest ideals of citizenship, sacrifice and service upheld," said Panetta.
On Saturday, Dr. Dilip Joseph, a U.S. citizen being held by Taliban forces, was freed after an operation in eastern Afghanistan.
Reports said Joseph had been captured by insurgents in Kabul province last week.
Gen. John Allen, the commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, said that the mission was ordered after intelligence showed Joseph to be in imminent danger.
"Today's mission exemplifies our unwavering commitment to defeating the Taliban," said Allen in a statement Saturday revealing the operation.
Joseph was working in Afghanistan for Morning Star Development, which reports said was a relief group helping to rebuild towns in the war-torn country. Joseph had been kidnapped with two of his co-workers, who were released after initial negotiations.
Reports said Joseph would rejoin his family soon.

Two District of Columbia leaders are heading to the White House to talk about the possibility of President Barack Obama putting the city's "Taxation Without Representation" license plates on his official vehicle.
The city created the license plate in 2000 to call attention to its lack of a voting member of Congress. President Bill Clinton put the tags on his presidential limousine, but his successors have declined to do so.
This week, the D.C. Council passed an emergency resolution asking Obama to start using the tag in time for the inaugural parade. Now, Council Chairman Phil Mendelson and Councilmember Mary Cheh will meet Friday with White House intergovernmental affairs staff.
Cheh has requested a plate from the Department of Motor Vehicles that Obama could use on the limo.

I completed the Elder achievement on 3 alts, an 82 Prot. Paladin which went smoothly since I could solo all the dungeons, and a Priest and Druid both 81... which did NOT go as smoothly since before I could finish the dungeons, Blizzard removed the ability to queue for Lich King instances over level 80, and there's no way I was going to solo Skadi or gatewatcher Krik'thir with my balance druid in mostly LK greens.
Managed to rope in a couple of generous DK guildies (one on each server) to spend an hour and a half on Friday running through the last several dungeons, except for the one or two that I could get just by stealthing.
Finally got the proto-drake on my main last year, trying to finish 3 alts this year may just drive me mad.

Facebook Is a Long Term Buy
Ishfaque is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The shares of social media giant, Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) took a hit recently amidst worries about lock-up expirations. The stock is down 5%, very likely, due to an oversupply of new shares entering the market. This is not surprising at all, because employees and other insiders wanted to lock in profits, as the shares are up about 50% from the all time lows of September.
This short term sell-off should not be of concern to any rational and intelligent investor, as it does not change any fundamental nature of the company. At the end of Q3 2012, Facebook has managed to remove a lot of question marks, and investor queries regarding the long term monetization strategy of the firm. Based on Facebook's current positioning, it is a solid long term buy, and probably has one of the widest moats in the Technology space.
Eight Key Drivers for Facebook in the Long Run
1) Value Proposition for Advertisers: With more than a billion Monthly Active Users who constantly upload and update new data, the targeting ability of Facebook is immense. And it comes as no surprise that this end user targeting capability generates a very high ad ROI, in many cases, return on ad spend was 5 times or higher. Such high rates of ROI has resulted in a 27% increase in the number of ads delivered, along with a 7% higher price per ad.
2) Mobile Position: Facebook is well positioned in mobile to capitalize on changing mobile usage. Mobile ads have a run rate of more than $600 million dollars on Facebook, and very likely it will shoot much higher, as it starts to roll-out more ads on Mobile News Feed. Also, Facebook didn't start monetizing its Instagram Mobile audience of more than 100 million users, and the company will likely lay out plans to monetize its Instagram Business, which will translate into hundreds of millions of dollars in incremental revenue. According to comScore, in the U.S., users spend more mobile time on Instagram than on Twitter.
3) Getting into the Search: Mr. Zuckerberg has publicly stated his intentions to enter the search engine business, and he has a leading partner to do so, Microsoft's (NASDAQ: MSFT) Bing. Search is a very lucrative market and a huge market. Facebook has the potential to multiply its top line, if it enters the search market. Search ads have significant reach and are highly targeted, and this makes them very attractive to a broad range of marketers. The dynamic duo of Microsoft and Facebook, can perhaps give Google (NASDAQ: GOOG), a run for their money.
4) Payments and Fees Division: Facebook has managed to spin away from excessive dependence on one developer, Zynga (NASDAQ: ZNGA) and it has managed to grow its revenues from other developers. Currently, ~40% of the top 400 apps use Facebook's software development kits (SDKs), and in the future, there will likely be a lot more revenue flowing in from more social apps.
5) Building a Hiring Platform: Facebook has already made inroads towards building a Hiring Platform, by building out a Social Jobs App. In the future, if it changes direction and builds out a full fledged Platform, it can pose material threats to social media rival, LinkedIn (NYSE: LNKD).
6) Taking on Mom-and-Pop Businesses: A staggering 12.8 million small and local businesses have business pages on Facebook. In addition to traditional ad products, Facebook has unveiled a new product called Promoted Posts, to monetize this group, and more than 300,000 posts were rolled out. The Local Advertising is a huge industry, and Facebook has a huge edge relative to competitors like Groupon and Google to tap into this group.
7) Monetizing Gifts: Facebook has just launched Facebook Gifts, which allows users to send gifts during special moments in their lives such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, etc. More importantly, Facebook Gifts is a great way to test the waters for an eCommerce Platform in a Local and Social Context. This represents an immense monetization strategy in the long run.

Any seasoned Internet entrepreneur will tell you that without a target market, your online marketing business will have a difficulty getting off the ground. Marketing and selling your products or services without a well-defined market is like entering unknown territory – you never know what you'll get. You could, for example, sell cookware to a group of hardcore bikers or market high-end skin care to lower-income housewives and not be aware of it. With a target market, your products or services are more likely to sell and you'll also have access to the right reviews and feedback later on.
Advantages of defining a market
There are several benefits for knowing which among the segments that make up the market is truly your target area. Here's why:
- Your product or service will find the right audience. Think about it: would you sell a work-at-home business solution to a home-based mom or to a busy executive?
- A targeted market is much more likely to convert than a general-interest market.
- Your products or services are easier to promote.
- You're less likely to spend more for marketing and promotion because all your attentions are focused in only one area.
- Your products or services are easier to price.
- You get feedback from the segment of the market that matters to you. It's far easier to make related adjustments or improvements on the product or service when the reviews or comments come from the very group of people who actually use it.
Steps in defining a target market
Consider these four factors when defining your target market:
Your product or service
Begin with the type of product or service you have or want to offer. That should be the best basis in defining who your target market will be, regardless of whether the product or service is still an idea in your head or already a tangible product or business. What is it about? What is its purpose? How does it work? What makes it attractive? Can it compete side by side with other products or will it fit best in a niche market?
How much will it take to produce the product? Consider the production and delivery costs, along with the manpower required to process not just production but also distribution. Remember that pricing affects your target market.
Potential customers or clients
To define your target market, ask yourself, who will buy my product? Who will have potential need for it? Who will appreciate it? Who will buy it once and who will continue to buy it? What are the demographics of this group and how long can I do business with them? How much will they be willing to pay for the product or service?
Try to observe people's buying preferences and habits and how often they have bought or paid for similar products and services in the past. If you want a target market that buys from you more frequently, you might want to keep away from groups that tend to be fickle.
Your competition
Conduct some simple research regarding the industry you're involved in and find out who your competitors are. Find out which similar products and services have captured the largest segment of the market. Can your product or service realistically compete with these? If you conduct a search online about products and services related to your own and come up with over 1,500 online or offline businesses that sell the same stuff, consider if it's worth the gamble. Generally, the more saturated the market, the more you'll find big players and known brands. While this doesn't necessarily mean you should back off, it's just a sign that you should be careful about entering the same market. Competition can be very tough, particularly for products and services with high or specialized demand.
Your online marketing business' direction
Another factor that can help you define a target market for your online marketing business is your business goal. Where do you intend to take your business? Targeting twenty-somethings today, for example, may be great for your business but 10 to 20 years from now, will your online marketing still be able to keep this group's attention? Their preferences and priorities will have changed by then and so will their buying capacity. Do you still tap this market? If you don't, will you be missing out on a great opportunity or should you continue targeting the same yet fresh-faced market?

With all the hype surrounding getting healthy I figured I would spotlight one of my favorite workout apps, Endomondo.
The app is as epic as it's name, if you run, bike, power walk or any other sport involving distance, it can be tracked through Endomondo. Not only does this app track distance, but it goes so far as to track heart rate, calories burned, average speed, and even perspiration based on determining factors.
There is a social aspect to it that allows you to encourage others and vice versa by posting workouts, you can even go so far as to pre-map a trail and share it with your friends. The best part is if you are using another workout app it can run right along Endomondo. It features a coaching aspect, options for trying to out do you're last workout and even a low power setting to maximize battery for those extended workout sessions. There is a free version available for most mobile platforms but the Pro version is nothing short of a beast.

My boyfriend chose the recipe to bring as a side for hot dogs on the boat with my parents. It was amazing warm and ok chilled... Something about the bacon. He swears that he will never make anything with time consuming fava bean ever again. Double the time for the recipe.
StephanieMS Posted: 04/19/13
SFWoman Posted: 05/28/13
I agree with Stephanie MS. The dish was quite good (probably because of the bacon), but the prep time of 45 minutes was ridiculous. The fava beans take forever. Ninety minutes is more like it!
GoBears Posted: 07/22/13
Pretty good, just not amazing. This was my first time eating fava beans, and I must say, they don't have a lot of flavor. They could have been omitted since they taste a lot like garden peas (which are already in this dish). It was a little bland overall. I can't put my finger on it - more lemon?

Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Psychologist Callie Carlson lives in the lush Florida Keys. Some call it paradise. Callie, a young woman who fears the sea, calls it hell. Now her brother has found a mysterious boat adrift off the coast — and has been charged with murdering its crew. He faces the death penalty unless a desperate Callie can find a way to prove his innocence.
Former Navy SEAL Chase Mattingly lost his nerve after a near-fatal diving accident. Investigating for Callie is his chance to prove he still has guts. And a heart. But soon someone is trying to stop them both. And as a killer stalks by night, only an act of love and courage can save Callie and Chase: a dive to perilous depths where truth — or death — is waiting...
With over four million books in print, Rachel Lee has captured readers' imaginations with edge-of-the-seat thrills. Here she holds us spellbound once again with a tale of deep emotions, wild hungers, and chilling suspense...

Apple and Samsung will duke it out in the courtroom over technology patents later this month. As the second California trial looms (it begins March 31), the two technology giants have filed a stipulation with the United States District Court of California which narrows the second case, patent blogger Florian Müeller reported on his blog, FOSS Patents.
Under the stipulation, Samsung withdrew its asserted claims based on three standard-essential patents while Apple dropped all of its counterclaims relating to these patents… Read More

Newton Gravity 2010 Running Shoe Review
"No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess."
- Sir Isaac Newton, 1643-1727
When I reviewed their original Gravity trainers last September, I made reference to the fact that Newton was barely a three-year-old business founded by a pair of guys with very little industry experience prior to entering the high-performance running shoe game. The company was named after a historic scientist, and offered a product whose design flew in the face of all the conventional wisdom of the day. Newtons were some of the most expensive shoes on the market, and required athletes to abandon the running form most of them had used all their lives.
In other words, success of the concept was something of a bold guess.
However, as another scientist of some renown – a fellow by the name of Albert Einstein – once explained, everything is relative: motion, space, and even our notion of time. In fields of different gravitational potential, time actually moves at different speeds; gravitational time dilation, as it's called, predicts that clocks will run more slowly when they're closer to the center of a field with massive gravitational pull.
Now before you press rewind 'cuz I blew your mind, let me put it this way: sometimes, four years is a very long time to be involved in something – especially if that something is an area (or field, in our analogy) that new players have been moving towards (gravitational pull) in increasing numbers with every passing month. And that's exactly where Newton finds itself nowadays: right smack in the center of this whole "natural running" supernova that has emerged, where four years is a relative eternity compared to all the other companies rushing to develop something similar.
From the outset, the Gravity has been Newton's flagship model, a top-of-the-line performance trainer that has attracted a large number of elite athletes - triathletes in particular – as well as amateur runners who want the biomechanics of barefoot or minimalist running without actually giving up the comfort and performance aspects of a standard running shoe. Most of its features like actuator lugs, action/reaction technology, and land-lever-lift technique have already been explained in my previous review, so rather than re-writing them here, I'm giving you the link above to check it all out.
This is also a good time to make a certain disclaimer: hardcore barefoot runners and minimalist proponents tend to dislike Newtons. The shoes are too heavy, too high off the ground - 26mm in the heel, 23mm in the forefoot - and, well … just too much shoe to accurately mimic barefoot running. While all of those points are well taken, it's also worth noting that Newton doesn't claim to make minimalist shoes; their main selling point is replicating the mechanics (and therefore, nearly all the benefits) of barefoot running while incorporating advanced technology features to improve comfort and performance.
Newton has a lot of science on its side, and contracts third party researchers to compare factors like decreased impact forces and improved energy return between its shoes and the most popular cushioning or performance trainers currently on the market. If you're going to claim that your shoes help people run faster, you'd better be able to back it up; thanks to ongoing lab testing and comparative analysis, Newton does.
Anecdotally, I can attest to the fact that Newtons make it easy to run fast. I'm currently in a high-mileage buildup for the spring and summer, and probably 90% of that mileage is either barefoot or in minimalist shoes (typically Soft Star, VivoBarefoot, or Vibram). Given the rough, hilly terrain I frequent, and the length of the runs I'm doing, most of my mileage tends to be the slow and steady variety. However, once or twice per week, I lace up my Gravity trainers for a tempo run or track workout, and I can still keep a 6-minute pace for a handful of miles.
Best of all, when wearing Newtons, I don't have to sacrifice the midfoot/forefoot gait pattern I've developed in minimalist footwear simply to run fast. Although the heel and midfoot are both elevated, the difference in heights is a mere 3mm, which is the flattest platform you'll find in a standard trainer. My posture, footstrike, and muscle recruitment are all the same as when I'm running barefoot; the only difference is that my feet are a lot more comfortable.
The 2010 version of the Gravity generally has the same style and fit as its predecessor, with a few tweaks that I would mostly call improvements. One change in the wrong direction is that this version is slightly heavier – 10.3oz compared to 9.4oz last year. Everything else is for the better: a more durable outsole, a higher-rebound EVA midsole for improved energy return, and, most noticeably, a more subtle blue option to make up for the screaming reds and oranges of models past. The upper is still incredibly open and airy, with plenty of room in the toe box for your toes to function independently and naturally.
Another aspect that remains the same is the price point of $175, which remains the biggest barrier to entry for many users. Last fall, I argued that the high ticket price helped ensure a commitment to practicing midfoot running form. Now that I'm a more dedicated minimalist runner, I've come to appreciate the value of Newtons a lot more than I used to.
I love having a "standard" shoe option that I can wear for days when I want to hammer out some fast miles, or when I want to get another 15-miler to finish the week when my legs and feet are thrashed from the 60 or 70 they've already done, without having to revert back to a forward-sloped high-heeled cushioned trainer. (And if I ever wanted to race a marathon again instead of running just for fun, I would definitely use Newtons to help me do it.) In that regard, they're fairly unique among all other shoe companies, with the possible exception of the $225 ECCO BIOM – so by comparison, the Newtons seem like something of a bargain.
At this point, it's pretty clear that Newton's bold guess to promote unconventional running form has been a success. The extensive experimentation and study of barefoot mechanics they've applied since the company's inception are now drawing in consumers and competitors alike, as more and more people are discovering the advantages of midfoot running. If you're happy in your peripheral orbit of traditional footwear, there's probably no reason for you to try these. If, on the other hand, you're finding yourself pulled toward the expanding field of natural running, you'll probably be quite happy giving in to this particular force of Gravity.

I would have rated this higher if the potato was completely cooked, but it wasn't. The flavors were delicious, I loved the softness of the breadstick dough and the leeks (I'm a leek newbie). I believe we also used fontina instead of Gruyere, which may have compromised the taste too much. I will be making this again but par-boiling my potato to make sure it is soft and definitely using gruyere cheese.

The Ducati GTV 500 is a pretty important part of Ducati's history. The parallel twin 350/500GTL models were introduced in 1975, taking their styling cues from the 860GT. Fabio Taglioni had nothing to do with them, as he was developing the belt-drive V-twin Pantah, so Tumidei updated the 1965 design. They were fitted with Borrani rims, Marzocchi forks and Brembo brakes and were succeeded by the 500 Sport Desmo in 1977. There was even a racing version, the 500 Super Sport. The final iteration was the GTV of 1977, a spring-valve version of the Sport Desmo which was made until 1981.
A similar model was put on sale featuring a handsome black and gold 900 SD paint job. Today there are very few of the original 500-cc parallel twins worldwide, so this bike is an excellent opportunity for any collector.
This classic motorcycle has an estimated price of €4.000-€6.000.

My first ever character was a Night Elf Druid (female), and it was my main during the end of Vanilla and during BC. I never played a horde character until I wanted to see what the blood elf starting zone looks like, and I just fell in love with the Horde. I abandoned my poor druid, and started to play with trolls, taurens and blood elves - I have not even logged in with her. As soon as faction change came, she became he - a mighty tauren bull and I played with it until Cataclysm (when they took the tree). I never for a moment missed the Alliance part, but I was very very glad that I could go on with my druid. Although thruth to be told, I played differently when it was her: she never joined outdoor pvp (very unlike him). There is a tiny thread connecting them, but truth to be told, I dont feel they are the same character. The only connection between her and him is the loyalty to Cenarion, and although I have other titles, I never change Guardian of Cenarius.

Valdosta - Two candidates are to win the District One seat on the Valdosta City Council.
Incumbent James Wright is wrapping up his fourth year on city council, but is hoping for four more.
But pastor and businessman Wade McCrae thinks he can do a better job and both have priorities they want to address if elected.
"To develop our youth, to give them industry and drive to overcome gang activity and terroristic threats through young people, and to help increase our graduation rate," McCrae says.
"Affordable housing and in terms of the city, traffic and growth. Thing of that nature is really what I've been instrumental in," Wright adds.
Early voting is going on now at the Lowndes County Board of Elections.
All other polls will open at 7:00 Tuesday morning.

Grilling Recipe: Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin
Recipes from The Kitchn
Despite years of wondering if I could — and should — make it on my own, I still turned to the easy packaged version when looking for an instant dinner. Even as a recipe developer, sometimes there are days when I just throw my hands up when it comes to cooking, and that's when old habits die hard. But finally, I decided that I needed to develop my own recipe for this easy and tasty meal.
Teriyaki is a combination of two Japanese words "teri," meaning luster, and "yaki" meaning grill or broil. Teriyaki sauce is what we now know as the marinade used for said grilled meat. There are countless adaptations, but the general consensus is that teriyaki sauce contains soy, mirin (or sake), and fresh ginger. Garlic, brown sugar, honey, pineapple juice, rice vinegar, and sesame oil are also possible additions in various quantities. But for this recipe, I wanted to re-create the teriyaki sauce that I know.
The end result of my creation is a perfect combination of sweet, savory, and salty, and the teriyaki sauce pairs absolutely perfectly with the mild flavors of pork. (I have yet to try it with fish or chicken but now I'm eager to try!) I am so stoked with the fresh, flavorful — and incredibly easy — results of this recipe that I will never go back to the store bought again!
This is a great meal for a busy weekday (you can marinate it in the morning for an absurdly easy dinner), but it's also tasty enough to serve guests if you need to feed a crowd. In the summer, it's great cooked on the grill, but in the winter, just pop it in the oven. Versatile, simple, and tasty — it's my comfort food for a reason!
Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin
Recipe Notes
- I tested with low-sodium soy sauce, and I feel regular soy sauce would be much too salty once the marinade is reduced.
- Some people feel just fine taking pork off around 140° or even lower. The USDA health recommendations say that pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. You can adjust this temperature to your own tastes and comfort level, especially if you know the pork is fresh and from a reliable source.
To cook in the oven, roast in a 425°F oven until the temperature reaches 140°F, about 20 to 25 minutes. Rest for 10 minutes before serving.

When I was growing up, my parents didn't cook pork very often, but pork tenderloin was the exception to that. Grill it, roast it, stick in in the crockpot with some sauerkraut, whatever. Always good; pork tenderloin is my one pork purchase these days (besides bacon, duh.) Our grocery chain here in TX sells delicious "pre-marinated meats in a bag". Their fajitas are unbeatable. I just started buying their pork tenderloin varieties: garlic peppercorn, mesquite bbq, Italian herbs. They're all incredible, but I can't help feeling guilty about all the "artificial". This recipe sounds like a very good start for my foray into the world of marinating my own pork tenderloin. I'm especially excited about the pineapple juice part... juice = no dry meat!
This is one of those recipes where "reserving the marinade" is what prompted my submitted question last year about doing exactly that, and ended up with a funky-smelling/tasting sauce.
I may end up making extra marinade for sauce-making to prevent that issue from reoccurring.
Just one clarification.. The USDA actually lowered the minimum temp for pork two years ago. http://blogs.usda.gov/2011/05/25/cooking-meat-check-the-new-recommended-temperatures/. http://www.foodsafety.gov/blog/meat_temperatures.html.
Cooking Meat? Check the New Recommended Temperatures
Posted May 25, 2011 | Read 1 comment
By Diane Van, Manager, USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline
On May 24, USDA made some important changes in their recommended cooking temperatures for meats. Here's what you need to know:
Cooking Whole Cuts of Pork: USDA has lowered the recommended safe cooking temperature for whole cuts of pork from 160 ºF to 145 ºF with the addition of a three-minute rest time. Cook pork, roasts, and chops to 145 ºF as measured with a food thermometer before removing meat from the heat source, with a three-minute rest time before carving or consuming. This will result in a product that is both safe and at its best quality—juicy and tender.

The Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST®), invented and patented by John Chao, D.D.S., is a scalpel-free, suture-free procedure for correcting gum recession. Through a small pinhole made by a needle, Dr. Chao uses specially designed instruments to gently loosen the gum tissue and glide it over the receded part of the tooth. Since there is no cutting or stitching, patients can expect minimal post-operative symptoms (pain, swelling and bleeding). Most patients also are pleasantly surprised by the instant cosmetic improvement.
|Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation Animation
The unique features of the Pinhole Surgical Technique have aroused keen interest on the part of the media. So far news programs at 240 TV stations have featured this scalpel-free technique of treating a problem that is found in half of the U.S. population (JADA, 2003). Dr. Chao made a guest appearance on the nationally syndicated "The Doctors Show," "Dr. Steve Show," "ABC," "NBC," and over 240 other stations across the U.S. and Canada, reaching an estimated 10 million viewers. For this reason, you may have already heard questions and comments from your colleagues and patients about this "breakthrough" method of correcting ginigival recession.
Dr. Chao was granted patents and trademarks on the PST method and PST instruments by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Please also see "The Pinhole Surgical Technique, A Novel Approach to Root Coverage," as published in October, 2012 issue of The International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry, a high-impact, peer-review journal.

The stay was pleasant and staff very kind and helpful. The only think I did not like was the information about the price of canoexkayak trip. I was told that the price is supposed to be 10-15CAD or if I am single around 20CAD and after an hour of kayaking I was asked to pay 37,50CAD!!! That was really unbeliavable! So please be aware that if you go kayaking and you are single it will cost you a bunch of money! Worth only in a group. Then the price is 10-15CAD.

In 2000 we began our support for China Bear Rescue, one of the projects run by the Animals Asia Foundation. The aim of the project is to see 500 of the Asiatic black bear, also known as the moon bear due to the distinctive pale crescents of fur on the chest, released from existing bear farms in China where they are "milked" for their bile, by the start of the Olympic Games in Beijing 2008. The bears live their lives in the most appalling conditions, imprisoned in tiny cages, unable to move, turn or lie down. They either have rusting metal catheters inserted permanently into their stomachs or are victims of a so-called "humane" free drip method where a hole is carved into the stomach and a latex tube inserted, often held in place with a metal corset which rubs the skin raw.
After much lobbying and discussion with the Chinese government, the charity was given 25 acres of bamboo forest in Chengdu, Sichuan Province where the Moon Bear Rescue Centre now exists today. So far 219 bears have been released into the charity's care, 175 remain alive. Some of the worst farms have been closed down, no new licenses are being issued.
Thanks to our fund raising efforts, to the support of many bear artists (see our charity auction page) and to all the bear collectors who participated in the auctions, in January 2005 we were able to sponsor our own bear, called Abracadabra. She arrived as part of a group from a bear farm which had been closed down and was in a very poorly condition for a while. I have photos of her when she had just arrived and a report but I made the decision not to publish the photos or write about her until I had heard more as it was very upsetting.
Just before Christmas 2005, I received the following photo of Jill Robinson, founder of the charity, with Abracadabra, having responded to her surgeries and well on the way to a healthier life.
Travelling to China and visiting the rescue centre was one of my ambitions and earlier this month, thanks to a dear friend in the travel business, I was able to make the journey. It was a wonderful holiday during which I visited The Great Wall at Mutianya, Beijing, Xian and the amazing display of terracotta warriors, Yangshou and Guilin for wonderful scenery, Chengdu for the moon bears and also pandas and finally Shanghai for the best Margarita cocktails and shopping in China.
On the morning of the planned visit to the moon bears, I was up early and down in the foyer of the hotel, worried that I might miss the driver sent to collect me. Everything had been planned by email with Jill quite some time ago and I was trusting to luck that nothing would go wrong. I shouldn't have worried - the driver had strict instructions not to leave the hotel until he had found me and off we went, avoiding bicycles and pedestrians alike, making our slow way through the heavy traffic. Of all the places that I went to, the city of Chengdu had the worst air pollution - there was a permanent yellow smog, a heavy chemical smell and my nose and throat burned the whole time I was outside in the city itself.
It took nearly an hour to get through the traffic and once outside the city we made better time. Eventually we turned off the main road and took a side road, more like a dirt track really, which took us through a small village and in between bamboo groves until we reached a security point where I donned my visitors badge and then we had arrived.
Jill Robinson was there to greet me with a big hug and many apologies because we weren't going to be able to see the bears burst from their dens into the rehabilitation area which was the reason for the early start to the tour. Unfortunately, thanks to Asia (see photos below) this wasn't to be. (Pass the mouse cursor over Asia's photo to see a second photo).
Asia, described by Jill as the scruffiest, scabbiest bear in the centre and not the first bear she wanted me to see, had installed herself in one of the climbing frames the previous day and was refusing to come down. Nothing, apparently, would tempt her, not even her favourite foods, evidence of which was apparent in the pieces of fruit scattered on the ground.
Poor Asia is being treated for eczema. Animals, just like humans, will show similar symptoms of stress and one thought is that Asia's skin problems were brought on by her treatment on the bear farm.
While Asia was in her vantage point, the other bears couldn't come out into the enclosure.
The tour of the centre started at the Education Room where everything you would ever need to know about the barbaric practices carried out on these animals is starkly laid out. There is also a life size photo of the centre's beloved Andrew, one of the first bears to arrive at the centre, who passed away in February 2006 from liver cancer.
(By passing your mouse cursor over the above photos, you will see more).
There were more happy moments than sad - it was fantastic to tour the perimeter of the enrichment areas and watch bears socialising, play wrestling, swimming, snoozing and generally enjoying life. Jill explained that the enrichment areas are changed every day so when the bears come out of their dens, they never know what will be waiting for them. One day there might be a swimming pool and the next day the water will have been drained and the pit filled with sand or straw. The centre's workers, employees and volunteers alike, work extremely hard to ensure that the bears are stimulated, hiding their food inside toys, logs and sticks of bamboo.
Jill is showing me some of the toys which have been donated for the bears to play with. The bears need plenty of them as they can be fairly destructive - you can see how chewed up the one in Jill's left hand is. The toys are those made for the largest dog breeds and they are put about in the dens and enclosures with food hidden inside so the bears have to make an effort to look for them.
I love this photo. The bear is Jasper, he has been at the centre since the first group arrived. Jill is feeding him his favourite treat of peanut butter and I was able to feed him pieces of apple which he took from me in the gentlest way with his tongue. I know that the bars look awful but they are necessary for no matter how cuddly these bears appear to be, they have very formidable claws and can move very fast so there are safety protocols in place of which we were constantly being reminded.
This is little Franzi. She spent 25 years in a tiny cage on a bear farm and as a result her growth was severely stunted and she suffered brain damage. She spends her time with her sweetheart, Rupert, also brain damaged as a result of an infection which went to his brain.
In this photo Franzi is "presenting" herself at the bars for a reward. She has been trained to do this so that she can be examined by the vet or given medication. In actual fact, Jill was trying to show us some of the work being done with Rupert but he wasn't interested and as soon as Franzi saw the bag of pineapple, she was there instead.
Franzi's tiny cage.
Rusting cages in which bears arrived - left to rot as a grim reminder of what has been left behind and of the 7000 bears still on bear farms.
(Please move your mouse cursor over the above photo to see another).
Here is our dear little Abracadabra as she is today. Not the greatest of photos but when I was taken to see her earlier in her den, she was not in the slightest bit interested in anything other than being let out into the enclosure, which she must have sensed was imminent so she was very active and wouldn't keep still for a photo. As we toured the perimeter of the enclosure, she suddenly popped out from a log and some branches right in front of us. I knew it was her as she has a very distinctive dark nose which turns up at the end, from her orange ear tag and also I had spotted earlier a small bald spot on her bottom. She is a very small bear, with a lovely rounded shape. Jill told me that it's hard to tell how old the bears are but Abracadabra is thought to be young to middle aged.
There are 2 Tibetan bears living in the centre - they were living in a monastery and the monks were no longer able to take care of them so the centre took them. They are simply beautiful to look at with shaggy coats in all shades of golds and browns - rather like those sea shell chocolates you can buy. They can't be integrated with the moon bears so they have an enclosure of their own - absolute luxury.
In December 2006 the AAF team saw a TV programme about a farmer and his family who had adopted a tiny orphaned cub and were training him rather like a dog. It seems that they were intending to keep him as a tourist attraction. The worry was that once the cub grew, they would no longer be able to take care of him and he would end up on a farm so the team contacted the farmer and invited him and his family to visit the rescue centre to see just what their little cub would grow into and how much care and work would be involved in keeping him healthy. The farmer was shocked to see how big the bears become and Little Naji (arabic for safe) was gifted to the centre.
Those bears that do not survive are cremated and their remains, together with their favourite toys, flowers and poems, are buried in the centre's graveyard.
Jill says that the villagers, who have a right of way through parts of the centre, often leave flowers on the graves. She says that no-one should say that the Chinese are uncaring as it's obvious that many do.
The graveyard is a very peaceful place.
One thing that is very clear is that the Moon Bear Rescue Centre depends entirely on the support of individuals and corporate sponsors and without our ongoing help they will be unable to continue with their work.
Abracadabra will be holding the occasional on-line auction this year as we have been promised special bears from one or two bear artists. We will, as in previous years, be holding our bumper end of year auction with all the bears that kind bear collectors have sent us. If you have a bear in your collection that you think could help his real life cousins, please email me or telephone on +44 (0)1799 527222.
There are many ways that you, as an individual can do to help the moon bears:
Visit www.animalsasia.org and check out their "help" section. You can join the "Befriend a Bear" scheme, buy a gift for a bear for as little as GBP 2.50 ($5), make a straight forward donation, buy something for yourself from the Gift Shop on-line.

Yesterday, on the IAC earnings conference call, CEO Barry Diller said that he'd be open to selling Ask.com. The media took off with the comments as if they were new and a deal was imminent. It's not.
A source familiar with the matter said there are currently no talks about an Ask.com acquisition or spinoff. Diller's comments were made in response to constant questions that IAC receives regarding their willingness to sell Ask.com. Their response has always been the same.
So why did everyone run with Diller's comments as if they were new? The "buzz" is probably more of a reaction to the recent Microsoft-Yahoo! deal plus the fact that IAC has, in fact, sold or spun off a bunch of companies in recent years. It's kind of what Barry Diller does.
Actually, Ask.com is a cash cow for IAC. This is something that often gets lost in the "search wars." The conversation is always framed about stealing search share from Google. But you don't have to have a ton of search share to be profitable.
If Diller is going to sell, it's going to need to be a sweet deal to make up for losing one of IAC's top three revenue-generators. Google probably has too much antitrust scrutiny right now. Microsoft has cash to burn, and it wouldn't be the first time speculation has been made about Microsoft buying Ask. Plus, in case you didn't notice, Bing imitated a lot of what we saw in Ask 3D. You have to think that adding 4% search market share all at once has crossed Steve Ballmer's mind. It would be a nice cherry on top of the deal struck with Yahoo!
So, yes, there's a likelihood that Ask.com will probably be sold at some point, but there's always been that chance.

Today, I want to educate you about MLM Prospects. If you are trying to build your network marketing business, you need leads that you can turn into prospects and prospects that you can convert into customers and/or distributors. Most distributors are taught that everyone is a potential prospect. When I first joined this industry in 2002, I thought the same thing. Boy was I wrong.
You see, not everyone you talk to is a MLM Prospect; especially the people in your warm market. Most of these folks simply aren't looking for a business opportunity or a chance to use your product line. You might sponsor a few of these folks, or get a few customers, but most of your warm market will tell you NO.
Your key to success is to find MLM Prospects that are looking for what you have to offer. In other words, you want people who are:
- Looking to Start a Business of Their Own
- Looking for a Network Marketing Company to Join
- Looking for Distributor Who Sells Your Company's Product Line
But how do you this? And what type of people make the best prospects? I will answer both of these questions below.
Who Are Your Best MLM Prospects?
If you're looking for people to build a network marketing business of their own, the last people you want to approach are unemployed, destitute, job-oriented people. Sure, a few of these folks might be a good prospect, but most won't. Instead, you want people who have experience owning their own business. Entrepreneurs are a unique breed. They understand merit based pay and they are seldom skeptical of new money making ideas.
Another good type of network marketing prospect are sales professionals: people used to getting paid on commission. This could include realtors, accountants, insurance agents, etc. Once again, these folks are used to get paid off their results, so they are familiar with commission based pay plans, and normally like these type of plans.
Another good type of MLM Prospect is other network marketers. Many network marketers are unhappy with their current company and are looking for a new company to join. I'm not recommending you try to take network marketers away from another company, but in an unhappy distributor from another company shows interest in working with you, you should recruit them. What makes them a good prospect is that they are already trained and sold on the idea of network marketing.
If I were you, I'd also keep an eye open for anyone who has achieved major success in life. Look for people who have done something great such as: sports, writing a book, running a marathon, etc. Many of these folks are naturally doers and goal oriented people. They would make a great MLM Prospect.
Finally, your best MLM Prospects are your HAPPY RETAIL CUSTOMERS. If you can get people using the products, and they fall in love with the products, many of these folks will want to eventually join the business opportunity and promote it. Never forget that. Focus on getting happy customers first and your business is sure to grow.
Where Do You find MLM Prospects?
My immediate answer to this question is to advertise! Sure, you can talk to people you meet and get referrals through your warm market. That is a good starting point. But for most folks it's not a long-term strategy. If I could give you just one piece of advice it would be to get others to contact you first! You can do that with effective paid advertising. You could advertise online, through direct mail, with flyers or countless other methods.
If you are going to advertise, make sure you place advertisements in publications, on websites, and through the mail exclusively to people in your target market. In other words, don't try to reach anyone and everyone. Only focus on people in your target market. You want to go to the publications your target market reads and advertise in those publications. You want to buy targeted mailing lists of people with the same demographics as your target market and send out a direct mail campaign. You want to place text and banner ads on websites that your target market visits. This is a very important piece of advertising advice: focus on your target market, not the masses.
Final Thoughts
These are best tips on who are your best MLM Prospects and where to find them. If you want to reach any level of success in your network marketing business, you need a constant flow of leads to share your products and business opportunity with. Rather than you approaching everyone you come in contact with, you would be much better off to get people to contact you first. The best way to do that is to learn how to advertise to your target. Become the hunted, not the hunter.
What are your thoughts?

Yours sounds like a better plan to me. Considering this is my first priest, I've been struggling for a decent rotation that doesn't leave me out of mana in dugeons. I know people hate wanding, but if it keeps u from having to drink so much, it is the best option.
Also as a side note for the article writer:
Considering that the recommendation for this article is to grab all the heirlooms you can, please consider that the rate of the updates on these articles will likely have to be faster(if possible). As anyone who started a fresh priest as a response to the original article will quickly outpace the info at its current rate. With all heirlooms, doing lots of dungeons, and the Summer festival, its already mine is already lvl26. So all the info here is already outdated.
