As a prescription drug and addiction expert for The O'Reilly Factor, Fox National News and many other news outlets, I am often called when a celebrity death occurs. While the loss of a talented actor or musician is tragic, I know from personal experience that the magnitude of devastation from legal drugs is happening to millions of innocent people – through psychoactive medications.

I had a soul-redemptive heart-to-heart reunion with a woman I had known from a distance but whom now (after our hours long coeur-a-coeur/heart-to-heart) I consider a close friend. I shared with her some very exciting and some challenging circumstances I have been experiencing of late. After I shared and shed a few tears she told me a story from her life that also poses, like my story, an invitation for profound change in our lives.

My name is Leah Harris and I'm a survivor. I am a survivor of psychiatric abuse and trauma. My parents died largely as a result of terrible psychiatric practice. Psychiatric practice that took them when they were young adults and struggling with experiences they didn't understand. Experiences that were labeled as schizophrenia. Bipolar disorder. My parents were turned from people into permanent patients. They suffered the indignities of forced treatment. Seclusion and restraint. Forced electroshock. Involuntary outpatient commitment. And a shocking amount of disabling heavy-duty psychiatric drugs. And they died young, from a combination of the toxic effects of overmedication, and broken spirits.

Prior admissions with stimulant disorder, but not a prior cannabis disorder diagnosis, are a negative prognostic sign in first-episode psychosis according to new research in the British Journal of Psychiatry. "Young people with substance comorbidities may have both the best and worst of outcomes, depending on whether problematic substance use is discontinued," the authors note.

According to the University of South Dakota's The Volante, "In 1993, about four percent of American college students used prescription drugs for nonmedical uses, according to a March 2007 study in the journal "Addiction". By 2001, that number had increased to 10 percent. Then, in 2010, that number spiked to 27 percent."

Although cocaine and psychostimulant dependence are thought to be related to increased dopamine release, research from Tokyo and Long Island finds that the effect of antipsychotics did not differ from that of a placebo in regard to cocaine, amphetamine and methamphetamine use, addiction, craving, depression, anxiety, or abstinence. Antipsychotics were discontinued more than placebo, as a result of intolerability, leading to antipsychotics being outperformed by placebo in some measures.

In "the largest assessment of substance use among individuals with severe psychotic illness to date," researchers from Washington University and the University of Southern California found that the odds of substance use among those with severe psychosis diagnoses is dramatically higher than that of people with less severe diagnoses. Though the study only establishes a correlation between psychosis and substance use, the lead researcher comments that "the most likely explanation is that substance use contributes to the development of severe mental illness."

Heavy pot users were found to have working-memory deficits and associated changes in brain morphology that were consistent with changes found in persons with schizophrenia diagnoses, according to a study published in Schizophrenia Bulletin. "The abuse of popular street drugs, such as marijuana, may have dangerous implications for young people who are developing or have developed mental disorders," says Dr. John Csernansky, an author of the study. "This paper is among the first to reveal that the use of marijuana may contribute to the changes in brain structure that have been associated with having schizophrenia."

Our lives changed the day we began looking inside ourselves for ways to move towards more joy and less suffering for us and those around us. We took ownership of the good and bad from our past and learned that if we came from a place of inner strength we could frame much of our future. The lessons and necessary mentoring that led to us reshaping our experiences happened within the context of addiction treatment. This treatment for us, and many others, consisted of working on ourselves with the guidance of people who had re-built – or built for the first time – daily lives rich in meaning and social connection.

The first time I heard someone labeled schizophrenic I was about 10 years old. A man was talking to himself and appeared to be house-less and perhaps on drugs. My mom, a very good teacher and explainer of things to me, said, "That man is schizophrenic. That means he can't tell the difference between what's inside of himself and what's outside." In retrospect this seems like a relatively sophisticated and sensitive explanation; Falling in love, hearing music that enters our heart, having children/giving birth, connecting powerfully with another person in a meeting of the minds, feeling empathy, deeply caring about something, experiencing oneness with nature, are all examples of times when the line between inner and outer reality is blurred.

When we share our stories publicly, whether in speaking, writing, or another art form, we acknowledge we are part of something bigger. We are aware we aren't the only ones who have been abused or witnessed abuse, or who are scared to let go of our ancestral shame and fear. We are, rather, part of an entire generation, an entire society that is moving away from silence, blame and abuse. In sharing our stories, we instantly recover from a big hunk of loneliness, loneliness that might not be so easily resolved sitting in a room across from a professional, with a few non-offensive art pieces on the walls. We acknowledge that every single one of us who experiences physical or emotional symptoms is holding onto things for others, in our bodies, and together, word by word, we can break free.

It has been 7.5 years since I got off benzos, the drug that damaged me the most, and 6.75 years off all meds; the final medicine I tapered was a tricyclic antidepressant, nortriptyline, in autumn 2006. Since that time, I have not taken another psychoactive medicine, nor have I had any desire to. Neither have I sought out therapy or the like. Personally, I'm sick of labels, sick of the industry, sick of talking about my "problems," sick of navel-gazing, and would just rather live.

Those of us, the survivors, who speak from experience, with nothing to gain from sharing our stories and in fact a hell of a lot to lose, risk having them revised or repudiated at every turn by the very people who, and paradigm which, sickened us. I'm simply trying to tell my story as I lived it, because I know exactly what I went through and why, and I don't think anyone else should have to suffer this way if they need not do so.

Part 1 of this series examined how the disease model of addiction intersects with the genetically based "mental illness" theory and practice of Biological Psychiatry. Part 2 analyzed the serious limitations and sometimes harmful effects of the domination of addiction treatment by the Twelve Step (disease model), and how Biological Psychiatry has both seized upon and expanded the culture of addiction in this country. What follows will be a presentation of some alternative methods for overcoming addiction problems.

Both addiction and "mental illness" are far more prevalent where there is poverty, patriarchy, and other forms of mental and physical violence; all this creates fertile ground for various forms of trauma experiences on a daily basis. Addiction and extreme states of psychological distress will never be fully eradicated, or even humanely treated on a broad scale, until the material conditions from which they have emerged are transformed in a truly revolutionary way.

The new category could be used to diagnose as illnesses addictions to shopping, sex, the internet, or video games – a potential addition of 20 million newly categorized "addicts." "The biggest problem in all of psychiatry is untreated illness, and that has huge societal costs," said Dr. James H. Scully, chief executive of the APA. Others are concerned the change would result in a misdirection of resources. "These sorts of diagnoses could be a real embarrassment," said Thomas F. Babor, editor of the journal Addiction.

Launch Event featuring Lesley Waters at Hive Beach Café, Burton Bradstock, West Dorset.
Celebrity Chef Lesley Waters has put her name and support firmly behind the newest fundraiser being launched by Macmillan Cancer Support – Dine for Macmillan. "When I heard about this new foodie fundraiser I knew I had to get involved," says Lesley. "There can be no better way to raise money for one of Britain's best loved charities than to have fun with your friends and family over a delicious meal."
By kind permission of owner Mr. Steve Attrill, a very special launch is being held at the award winning Hive Beach Café on Thursday 19th May 2011 (5.30pm for 6pm start). Invited guests will be treated to a cookery demonstration/dinner party workshop with wine tastings and light refreshments. Marking Macmillan's 100th year, Dine for Macmillan will raise money to help make a difference to the millions of people living with and beyond cancer.
Claire Coles, Macmillan's Fundraising Manager for Dorset and Somerset, explains. "Dine for Macmillan is a really enjoyable event that's so easy to take part in. There is no right or wrong way to get involved, all you have to do is host a meal and ask your guests for a suggested donation instead of bringing flowers or chocolates. We're thrilled Lesley has agreed to be our foodie ambassador, she is so passionate about food and cooking, we're hoping this will rub off on our hosts and get people inspired to share a meal together!"
Dine for Macmillan caters for all tastes, all cooking abilities and all pockets. It can be a formal dinner, a simple supper party, a fabulous themed feast, a big breakfast, a picnic in the park or a takeaway … you can even ask your favourite pub or restaurant to run a Dine for Macmillan event.
Claire continues, "The beauty is that you can hold it any time you like, as many times as you like. Why not make it a regular social event? Everyone can get involved, from budding chefs who want to show off their cooking skills to those more at home with a microwave meal. All that matters is that you take part and have fun doing it."
It really is easy as pie. If five guests all donate £5 a head, just one dinner party could fund a Macmillan benefits advisor for just over an hour, helping people affected by cancer understand what benefits they are entitled to and how financial grants can ease their money worries.
Once registered, hosts will receive a Dine for Macmillan fundraising pack which is crammed with menu ideas, hints and tips for making the party a real success.

It takes muscles, brawn and an appreciation for real heroes to compete at the Central Florida Games II.
The annual fitness challenge and charity event is being held this weekend at the Chain of Lakes complex in Winter Haven. It is hosted by the Chain of Lakes CrossFit.
But the event is much more than a fitness festival.
It will honor real heroes such as fallen Polk County Sheriff's Office Canine Team Deputy Matt Williams and his K-9 partner, DiOGi, by donating a portion of the proceeds to Polk Sheriff's Charities and creating workouts incorporating the date of their deaths.
Spectators were given a chance Saturday to try out a rope course.
Today, the final workout honored Deputy Williams and his canine partner, DiOGi, both killed in the line of duty on Sept. 28, 2006. The final workout will incorporate the numbers 9, 28, and 06, in the repetitions of exercises.
A giant check for Polk Sheriff's Charities in the amount of $1,000 was presented to Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd before the final workout.

Congratulations to the Seattle Seahawks, who soundly defeated the Denver Broncos by a score of 43 to 8 in Super Bowl XLVIII. After such impressive and commanding performances on offense, defense, and special teams, it's a great time to be a Seahawks fan. But when the proverbial smoke clears, should the 12th man expect a repeat performance in 2014? What about 2015 and beyond? Are these Seattle Seahawks sustainable?
A concept curiously borrowed from historical royal families inbreeding to ensure constant familial rule over a sovereign, in professional sports a team that utterly dominates its competition over the course of several years is referred to as a "dynasty." Since the 1960′s, there have arguably been only five dynasties in the National Football League:
- 1960s Green Bay Packers (five championships in seven years)
- 1970s Pittsburgh Steelers (four Super Bowl titles in six years)
- 1980s San Francisco 49ers (four Super Bowls; eight division titles)
- 1990s Dallas Cowboys (three Super Bowls in four years)
- 2000s New England Patriots (three Super Bowls in four years)
While a myriad of different variables are shared amongst the aforementioned dynasties, one in particular is probably most important: the presence of a young, superstar quarterback. Having that young stud QB that learns how to win early on in his career seems essential for longterm, dynastic success in the NFL. The '60s Packers had Bart Starr; the '70s Steelers had Terry Bradshaw; the '80s 49ers had Joe Montana; the '90s Cowboys had Troy Aikman; and the '00s Patriots have Tom Brady. In Russell Wilson's first professional football season, he led the Seahawks to the Divisional Round of the NFC playoffs; in his second season, he won Super Bowl XLVIII. Given Wilson's incredibly high level of play and significant and seemingly unrivaled early successes, is it possible that the Seattle Seahawks will become the dynasty of the '10s?
In the words of the inimitable Kevin Garnett, anything is possible. Possible? Sure. Probable? Absolutely not. Over the past three seasons, the Seattle Seahawks have largely been a product of a mass influx of underpaid yet high-performing young talent.
NFL success is in large part dictated by how well a team manages its talent under the salary cap, set at $123 million for 2013. For those sports fans who do not obsess over Ari Gold of Entourage and Arliss Michaels of Arli$$, and who do not watch football as if they were a sports agent, all that the salary cap means is that each NFL franchise can only spend $123 million per year on all of its players combined. When a team like the Chicago Bears decides to cut ties with likely Hall of Fame linebacker Brian Urlacher as opposed to re-sign him, they are doing so because of the realities of the salary cap—not out of some bastardized understanding of loyalty. In contrast, when the Baltimore Ravens chose to pay Super Bowl winning quarterback Joe Flacco about $20 million per year, they conscientiously decided that Flacco was worth tying up about 16% of their annual salary allotment on one individual. With regard to the Seattle Seahawks, they almost assuredly have too many guys needing paychecks and not enough money to legally spend on each of them. Consequently, 2013 could be Seattle's peak year in the '10s in terms of overall team talent.
Sack master Cliff Avril will make $7 million in 2014 before becoming a free agent in 2015. At just 29-years-old when he hits free agency, it will be difficult for both the Seattle front office and Seattle fans to consider parting ways with a talent the likes of Avril.
Stud defensive end Michael Bennett is a free agent after the Super Bowl, and unless Seahawks owner Paul Allen overpays for him by way of millions of his Microsoft money, Bennett will likely be on his way to the Chicago Bears to play alongside his equally eccentric brother, Tight End Martellus Bennett.
Sure-handed wide receiver Doug Baldwin becomes a restricted free agent in 2014. After Baldwin's admirable 2013 campaign filling in for the oft-injured Percy Harvin, it would be incredibly hard to part ways with him. Better get that check book out, Mr. Allen.
Another standout defensive end, Chris Clemons, becomes a free agent after the 2014 season. When he becomes a free agent, Clemons will be 34-years-old—making him a likely candidate for not being re-signed due to age alone, much like what happened with the aforementioned Brian Urlacher, as well as pro bowl caliber players of years past such as Jason Taylor, Joey Porter, and Richard Seymour. Clemons will present the Seahawks with another tough choice salary choice under the salary cap.
Backup quarterback Tarvaris Jackson becomes a free agent after the Super Bowl. While hardly incredible on paper, the mobile Jackson possesses inflated value for the Seahawks, as Pete Carroll—in order to run the same plays and schemes—clearly desires a comparably mobile backup quarterback to replace Russell Wilson in case of injury. The Seahawks will need to pay Tarvaris Jackson in the coming months.
The Seahawks, if desiring to retain two of their important defensive tackles, will need to pay free agent Tony McDaniel and restricted free agent Clinton McDonald. Are you sensing a trend?
Starting guard Paul McQuistan is also a free agent in 2014. Franchises around the league are notorious for marginalizing guards and letting them walk, falsely assuming some sort of naive and often nonexistent replaceability. Will this happen to McQuistan?
Richard Sherman, objectively the best cornerback in the National Football League, will make only $1.389 million in 2014. He will then become a free agent in 2015, at just 27-years-old. Assuming Sherman is not catastrophically injured between today and 2015, he will be in line for a record setting cornerback contract. And given Sherman's skill and popularity, as well as the realities of inflation, the Seahawks will be virtually forced to make him the highest paid cornerback of all time.
And let's not forget about Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith, who will make $645,000 in 2014 before becoming a free agent in 2015. Currently just 24-years-old, will the Seahawks be willing to part ways with such an important cog in their vaunted defense?
In a similar situation as Richard Sherman, Earl Thomas—already the best safety in the NFL—will only make $4.625 million in 2014. He will then become a free agent in 2015 at the age of 26. Expect the Seahawks to ink Thomas to another record setting deal, solidifying their secondary for the remainder of the decade.
Impactful linebacker K.J. Wright is in the same boat. He will make just $645,000 in 2014 before become a free agent at 26-years-old. If Wright does not receive a multi-million dollar deal in 2015, he will no longer be a Seattle Seahawk.
And then we get to Russell Wilson, who will make less than $1 million in both 2014 and 2015 before becoming a free agent. If I am Russell Wilson's agent, after witnessing my client's early career successes, I am currently pondering a holdout for more guaranteed money today. But if Wilson does not wish to hold out, come my client's free agency in 2016, I will be making the case to the rest of the league that Russell Wilson's resume makes him the best young quarterback in the NFL—far ahead of the likes of Colin Kaepernick and Andrew Luck. In turn, you better believe Russell Wilson is going to be entitled to a contract greater than or equal to that of Joe Flacco, over $20 million dollars per year.
So what does this all mean for the Seattle Seahawks moving forward? Assuming it is a lock that Wilson, Sherman, and Thomas are all re-signed for contracts close to record value, and given the amount of money already invested in young assets like wide receiver Percy Harvin, center Max Unger, safety Cam Chancellor, and defensive tackle Red Bryant, it will be next to impossible to keep the same level of talented depth on the roster in future years as exists today in 2014.
The Seattle Seahawks likely will not become a dynasty—just a really damn good football team for the rest of the '10s. I'm sure the 12th man can live with that. And if they can't, I've learned at least one thing over the last two NFL seasons: never count out Russell Wilson.

As we have mentioned before, a large sun storm erupted Tuesday leaving a lot of energy heading toward earth. This energy will cause the northern lights or aurora borealis to flare up in the northern hemisphere. Here is the two cents on how the auroras happen: Atoms in the upper atmosphere are stirred when energy from the sun hits the poles, this causes them to collide with magnetic particles and that process emits light. That light then travels the magnetic field of the earth.
This all leaves areas as far south as Chicago capable of seeing the northern lights. This energy is still being felt as we head into Friday so there is a decent chance to see them again in cities like Minneapolis, Seattle, Bismarck and Fargo. The image below is a forecast for the auroras, the darker green means a better chance of seeing them between sunset and sunrise.
If you are traveling to the northern portion of the country you only have one more day to view them, on Saturday they will retreat farther north and only Alaska will be left with a good chance to get a glimpse of the northern lights.Forecast for the northern lights on Saturday morning.

Perfect place to relax with a coffee, sun worship or swim in calm waters. Rarely overcrowded and beautiful views.
This is a gorgeous beach on the Sydney Harbour foreshore enjoyed mainly by the Eastern Suburbs locals.
For those looking for a quiet dip, this is the place for you.
Nice and clean pool/river/beach area and you feel safe. My absolute favourite place to go for a swim.
A simply gorgeous harbour bay with great city views that is perfect for young children.
The water is partitioned off for extra safety and there are two floating platforms which are great for sun bathing on, or jumping off.
Get there early on a weekend, or seemingly any time during the week, as Redleaf is quieter than some of it's...
What a gorgeous harbour pool, for those that are allergic to chlorine and cannot swim in a regular pool, I think this is a alternative you will be pleased with!!
The pool is separated from the ocean by a shark fence and has many yatchs parked about.
Gorgeous, clean, family friendly and doesn't have many of those posers walking about!...
I don't know about the parking problems since I walked there from Bondi Junction but do know that the RedLeaf Cafe and Redleaf Pool are the perfect combo for me: good coffee, spectacular view to be enjoyed with a book (or iPad loaded with books). If you're going there and like coffee, views AND books you might as well go...
this pool is shark proofed and in a beautiful location. The easiest way to it are through the grounds of Woollahra Council in New South Head Road Double Bay. Only problem is very limited nearby parking. Also a delightful and good value cafe overlooks the pool
Great pool separated from an open ocean. Sandy beach and many yachts and boats around.
Redleaf is a beautiful harbor pool, away from tourists and very popular with the locals. Particularly nice at night (although empty). You can see the harbor bridge from this beach

ArtPrize brand creation
ArtPrize is the largest cash art prize in the world and unique among large scale art competitions because the winners are decided by public vote. When the founders first proposed their idea in 2009, they did so in an experimental spirit. They were comfortable being unsure about how the connection they were creating among the event's three distinct audiences (a global audience of artists, a local audience of venues, and a regional community eager to embrace the spectacle) would play out.
With an outline of the idea and six months to execute, ArtPrize approached Peopledesign to create the ArtPrize brand identity from scratch.
The logo we created for ArtPrize strives to reach all three of the event's audiences. Calder's La Grande Vitesse is a familiar symbol of Grand Rapids, a city that values public sculpture as an important part of its civic identity. Turned on its side and coupled with the letter form of a large A, the two create a symbolic equivalence. The abstract shape is a communicative form equivalent to the letter. To the Grand Rapids audience, this symbolizes not just the Calder, but the city turned on its side. A new perspective. To a global audience unfamiliar with La Grande Vitesse, the logo may represents a desire to transcend language. A code. A cipher. A key.
What idea or concept are you ready to launch into a new market? How might the needs of several diverse audiences be better addressed by your brand? We can help.

"I can have my sin if I want to," summarized anonymous pastor, but I cannot have my sin and also have pure access to God—and somehow or other, the desire to see God means more than my desire to see Cheryl.
We can sin if we choose; but, we must remember that the degree to which we sin is the degree to which we impair our abilities to see and hear from God! "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God."

I want to use the Teensy++ 2 to run a chessboard with 64 LEDS and 64 reed switches. The centepede shield: http://docs.macetech.com/doku.php/centipede_shield seems an ideal solution, especially as you can link two to address 128. it It uses the Wire I2C interface on analog pins 4 and 5 to provide 64 general purpose I/O pins. (x2) so I get massive addressing for only 2 pins with the added bonus that you connect using a ribbon cable and it has built in resistors.
It is designed to stack on a standard uno type board, however I want to use the Teensy because that can communicate using serial USB and keyboard at the same time.
So my question is, which pins represent the "Wire I2C interface on analog pins 4 and 5 " and can i just solder connections of two centipedes in a daisy chain arrangement?
Any other observations welcome.

When the 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs first started, the San Jose Sharks were automatically written off due to their playoff history.
But now, there's a different feeling in the air in San Jose.
Understanding their first round opponent were a young, inexperienced club in the Colorado Avalanche; Craig Anderson provided quite the scare. Fortunately for the Sharks, Anderson and the Avs ran out of gas helping the Sharks head into the Western Conference semi-finals.
When it was finally determined that their opponents for the semi's would be none other than the defending Western Conference champion Detroit Red Wings, the stage was set for history to rear it's ugly head and repeat itself.
But, Joe Pavelski and company had other ideas.
Throughout most of the first round, as well as all three games played thus far, "The Big Pavelski" has provded the Sharks with an offensive game taking opponents by surprise. Known for his responsible two-way game, Pavelski provide quite a punch as a second line skater. He ended the regular season with 51 points in only 67 games played. Of his 51 points, 25 of them were earned by placing the biscut in the basket.
Heading into game three, most of the hockey community world-wide felt that the series would shift in favor of the mighty Detroit Red Wings. They were heading home to hockeytown looking to get back on track. However, after opening up a three goal lead against San Jose something went wrong. Eight arms were not enough to hold onto a lead the other night in Detroit. Heck, for the Red Wings, nothing was enough. Not two nights ago, nor in any of the first three games of this semifinal series that has seen the birth of the squid killers as well as a new breed of Sharks.
An octopi's primary defense is to hide, either not to be seen at all, or not to be detected as an octopus. From this semifinal best of seven between these two clubs, the Sharks are on the prowl and the Wings need to come out of their hiding spot if they have any intentions of keeping their playoff season alive.
But let's be serious, Sharks bite to kill.
I'm scrambling around looking for a Chinese calendar because I wonder, is this the year of the Shark(s)?!
Tuesday night opened plenty of eyes. The Wings took a commanding 3-1 lead into the third period on home-ice.
Now, we all know that when you are in Hockeytown no lead is safe, if you are the opponent with the lead that is. But a rare event occurred that night.
Not only did the Sharks erase a two-goal deficit, they skated into overtime and won the game. All of this against the "mighty" Detroit Red Wings. Even more surprising, Joe Thornton who already scored a goal in the contest, sent a beautiful pass to the stick of Patrick Marleau who, you guessed it, buried the puck into the back of the net for the game winner.
Thornton, who has been the center of playoff attention for pulling his best impersonation of Harry Houdini during this time of year, seems to finally be providing enough in the playoffs to erase the demons. His goal at the 6:42 mark of the third period brought the Sharks within one, making it a 3-2 game.
Rookie Logan Couture tied things up for the Sharks at 13:17 of the third and that was all that was needed because Sharks goaltender Evgeni Nabokov shut the door the rest of the way. However, before we get all giddy over the three games to none lead the Sharks currently posses over the Wings, realize this: as great as it is, Nabokov has not been stellar in this series. Far from it for that matter.
Sure, Nabby leads all playoff goaltenders in wins and goals against average; however, his .916 save percentage is something that can be polished up. History shows that statistics in the playoffs do not play a vital role (Marc-Andre Fleury posted a .908 saved percentage in claimaing the leagues top prize last season) but Nabokov's play has been overshadowed by the offensive output his teammates have provided. He has not faced a lot of shots during these playoffs and if not for the offense, things could look much different.
Giving credit where credit is due, though, this has been the best Nabokov has played in the 'second season' since the lockout. He just needs to find his regular season game and the nibble he is currently providing will become a deadly bite.
Pavelski did get himself on the score sheet yet again Tuesday night as well. His apple on Devin Setoguchi's goal late in the first period cut Detroit's lead in half and gave the Sharks life heading into the second stanza. You might not think so, but that assist on that goal was important.
And then there was the clincher.
Marleau netting the game winner was as vital as it gets. It was only his second goal of these playoffs, but likely the most important. The coffin is one nail away from being sealed with the Red Wings resting inside of it.
In order for the Sharks to continue advancing, the top line will need to be more productive and on par with the second line for San Jose. Marleau, Thornton and Dany Heatley are the catalyst to the Sharks success. They can not rely on the second-tier players to carry the entire load. Hockey is a team sport, and in order to be successful, the entire team needs to contribute.
The quest for Lord Stanley's Cup will continue for this year's San Jose Sharks club as they look to close out the Wings tonight via a sweep. Now, understand a sweep is not likely as Detroit will not simply lay down. This Wings club, like any other over the years, has plenty of fight left within.
Expect the series to shift back to San Jose however, doubt that it will again shift back to Detroit. Game 4 is tonight, with the makings to be wild.
Did anyone find that calendar?

We know that private renting leaves a lot to be desired, and we also know that the voice of private tenants is often missing when decisions about us are made. The only way that we will improve our living situation is by joining together, in large numbers to affect change. For this reason we are starting our next campaign by hitting the doors and speaking to as many tenants as we can about the issues affecting them, in order for us to take collective action. We're excited to announce that this campaign is about to begin, but we need your help to bring it to life.
Where? We will be knocking on doors in the Easter Road area of the city, and talking to as many tenants as we can around Easter Road and Leith Walk.
When? We will start door knocking from Monday the 8th of June, and will continue for six weeks, this will culminate in a public meeting on the Tuesday the 22nd of July at Norton Park Conference Centre, where tenants will have the opportunity to come together to raise their issues, and decide upon next steps for collective action.
Amazing, how can I get involved?
We are looking for volunteers to come door-knocking, and to help with other tasks like envelope stuffing. Full training will be given, and we will pair you up with an experienced member of the committee.
We will be stuffing envelopes on Sunday the 1st of June in room G5 at St Margaret's house 151 London Road from 3pm.
Door-knocking training will take place on Sunday the 8th of June from 5pm, which will also take place at St Margaret's House.
Door knocking will take place from Monday the 9th of June. We would love to see you along, even if you can only commit to one or two nights. Please contact us if you would like to get involved.
We are also looking for people who live in the Leith/Easter Road area of the city who might be interested in being part of a Leith branch of Edinburgh Private Tenants. If this is something you may be interested in please get in touch.
If you would like to be involved in any of this email us, or phone 0131 661 5113 and leave a message with your name and phone number. You can also like our page on facebook for more updates.
I don't have time to get involved in this, is there another way I can help?
The best way to support renters in is to become a member of Edinburgh Private Tenants. Anyone who rents can become a full member, and others are welcome to join as supporters. We need to come together in large numbers to affect change. Every new member helps keep us democratic and makes us more powerful. You know it makes sense, so why not join online now?

The biggest high school wrestling event of the year took place over the weekend with the Ron Mauck OVAC Tournament. Monroe Central had several wrestlers participating and finished 25th in the tournament which includes 39 schools of all sizes.
Having the most success for the Seminoles wrestling squad were Chase Carothers (132), who finished in seventh place in his class of 31 wrestlers, and Colton Robinson (285) who finished in eighth place in his class of 24 wrestlers.
Carothers began his run with a fall at 0:31 to defeat Jake Haswell of Shadyside. Next, Carothers lost to the four seed, Anthony Parada of Steubenville. After falling to the lower bracket, Carothers went on a tear defeating Jared Fairchild of Meadowbrook, Nick Fisher of Edison and Aaron West of Beallsville before falling to six seed Casey Mowder of John Marshall.
Robinson opened with a bye and then fell to five seed Jeff Howdersheit of University via a fall at 1:07. Robinson then defeated Zeke Andrews of John Marshall, Zack Elias of Harrison Central and Alex Newman of Magnolia before being defeated by three seed Preston Wise of Buckeye Local by a fall at 0:20.
Other Seminole wrestling results were as follows: Ryan Ruble (106): bye, loss to one seed, victory against Tanner Strain of Union Local via a 4-3 decision, and a loss. Jaren Hupp (126): Loss to four seed, loss. Zac Potts (four seed at 152): victory via fall, victory via major decision, loss to five seed, loss. Michael Jones (160): Loss to two seed, victory via fall, loss. Anthony Block (170): Loss, loss. Justin Kilburn (220): loss to seven seed, bye, loss.
The Monroe Central boys basketball team played one more game this week without scoring leaders Korey Lafferre and Cameron Jorris. Against a strong Shenandoah Zeps team at home, they were able to shake off a one-point deficit at half-time and after the third quarter to pull away in the end by a score of 60-52.

Dr. Thomas Hubbard '75
Joshua Quinn
Randolph-Macon College recently welcomed two new staff members to The Edge, Randolph-Macon's four-year
program aimed at helping graduates lead the pack when competing for jobs and applying
to graduate schools.
The Edge program, within the
Center for Personal and Career Development, includes yearly workshops that
focus on: career and vocational identification; preparation for pre-professional
programs and grad school; internships
and work experience; and the job-search process or graduate school applications.
Thomas Hubbard, M.D., D.D.S '75 will serve as Physician Liaison
for The Edge. Hubbard will be a link to medical schools,
dental schools, and other health-related professional schools. He will also assist
students in their academic preparation for applications to these schools and work
in partnership with the science faculty.
Hubbard earned his B.S. in chemistry from
Randolph-Macon College, his medical degree from Virginia Commonwealth University,
Medical College of Virginia School of Medicine, and his Doctor of Dental Surgery
from the University of Maryland, College Park.
Joshua Quinn, B.S., M.S. will serve as Medical Career Coordinator
for The Edge. Quinn will assist pre-health and
pre-medical students in their identification of medical career interests
and provide information about more than 80 medical-field job opportunities.
Coordinating with faculty advisors and science professors, Quinn will help keep
students on track for course requirements, required post-graduate testing and internship
and shadowing opportunities.
Hubbard and Quinn, whose positions were made possible as the result of a gift from
a generous alumnus, joined The Edge in July 2012. Linda
Carne, executive director of the Center for Personal and Career Development, is
thrilled about the newest members of The Edge staff.
"These two positions, coupled with our recently-created
Wornom Pre-Medicine Endowment, which provides full pre-med scholarships
to qualified science students, will give Randolph-Macon students a competitive advantage
in their post-graduate pursuits in the medical field," says Carne.

Maiden RockFife, SCOTLAND
Climbs 5 – Rocktype Sandstone (soft) – Altitude 3m a.s.l – Faces all
Crag features
Rock is soft sandstone, with numerous pockets/scars, and is quite friable, with some loose sections. Several routes up on all aretes and faces. S/E arete is only recorded route (Sev)
Because of the soft and friable nature of the rock, trad gear placements should be viewed with suspicion, and their likliehood to damage the rock should be taken into consideration.
Toproping is an alternative, although please make sure you rig the karabiners over the edge and use a rope protector (or a bag) to prevent unnecessary damage to the rock.
Popular with local boulderers, but needs a mat as landing is on large pebbles.

From The Spokesman-Review
For the rest of the story - you have to click your way over to the Spokesman-Review website. Hint: yes, there is a gator man in Duck Hunter Shoots Angel at Spokane Civic Theatre.
Spokane Civic Theatre thanks Tracy Poindexter-Canton for her review of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.
And she's right….there's nothing bashful about "Whorehouse"; how could there be? We are having great fun with this production and if the audience is any indication, they are having equally as much fun as well.
If you get bored, have nothing to do, want some good down home entertainment with a slightly racy side, come on down and see the show. We'd love to have you. Runs on the Spokane Civic Theatre Main Stage, January 14 through February 4 with curtain times on Thursday, Friday, Saturday at 7:30 and Sunday at 2:00. Call 509.325.2507 to reserve a seat or buy your tickets online through TicketsWest who is also sponsoring this production.
Our thanks to the The Spokesman-Review for this excerpt from their recent article summing up upcoming Spokane stage events.
Spokane Civic Theatre – This is where you'll find both of the aforementioned Gothic governesses, one from the pen of Henry James, the other from the pen of Charlotte Bronte.
But first, we'll meet a vivacious '20s flapper in the musical "Thoroughly Modern Millie" on the Main Stage, Sept. 23-Oct. 23.
You might remember Millie Dillmount from the 1967 movie. This is the musical version of her story, which became a 2002 Broadway hit. Expect a lot of toe-tapping songs and some big tap numbers. Kathie Doyle-Lipe and Greg Pschirrer direct.
That will be followed on the Main Stage by a new version of "A Christmas Carol," Nov. 18-Dec. 18. You'll see all of the great Dickens characters – and a few puppets, as well. Troy Nickerson directs.
Over in the Firth J. Chew Studio Theatre, Henry James' literary ghost story "The Turn of the Screw" runs Oct. 21-Nov. 13. It has a two-person cast, with one actress playing the governess and another playing all of the other roles. Susan Hardie directs.
We'll meet the other governess in the Civic's annual musical-in-concert fundraiser, "Jane Eyre," Oct. 28-29 on the Main Stage. This is the Paul Gordon musical that arrived on Broadway in 2000. Yvonne A.K. Johnson directs.
Overall, the Civic has been on an upswing in terms of both audience and quality. Johnson said season ticket sales exceed last year's record pace.

JANUARY JONES showing off her huge baby bump earlier today. Jones attended a yoga class and then stops off at a post officie in Los Feliz, Los Angeles. Wasn't it just a few weeks ago when the Hollywood gossip news was buzzing about the Mad Men starlet's announcement of her pregnancy news? She was barely showing then..
Jones announced her pregnancy at the end of April, that's slightly 2 months ago and she was barely showing. She did not disclose the due date but she did say this fall, judging by the size of her tummy, she could well be dropping sooner than that.
We still have no idea who's the daddy. We have been suspecting that Jason Sueikis could well be the baby dad although he didn't want to talk about Jones' baby bump when asked. The two broke up in January so Jason is very likely to be the father.
How far along do you think she is? At least 8-month pregnant?

With the random mount cast, I have several mounts because of the 50 mounts achievement - is there any way for me to specify which types of mounts to summon, like perhaps an epic ground mount instead of 60% speed, and a flying one when I unlock Northrend flying?
I've been using the Mounted addon, which was covered in Addon Spotlight a week ago.
I use this one... replace the a,b,c, (etc) portion with the number slot from your mount tab the first page being 1,2,3-12 and the second page being 12,13,14 etc... its kind of tedious and is still iffy with WotLK (because currently Northrend is viewed by the macro to be a flyable area even if you dont have the skill...
run if IsMounted() then Dismount() return end local t=IsFlyableArea() and {a,b,c,d} or {e,f,g,h} CallCompanion("MOUNT",t[random(#t)])
Anybody else feel a little overwhelmed with this new continent? As a mage I had people asking me to join them in nexus but to get there from howling fjord I had to port to org, get zepplin to borean tundra, then find my way around. I never got my quests for said instance (never got in because my computer crashed anyways) but all I can say is that when everything is so crowded, with so many people crammed in, and constantly jumping between zones, I found my Death Knight far more appealing.
Has anyb0dy else had this problem? Or are you all just taking it in stride?
Chris Anthony said...
I can't find a better way to do it than the macro calaf uses, without the use of add-ons. (You could do it pretty easily in an add-on, but it'd require too many characters for a macro.)

Excellent and easy recipe for steak. I used ribeyes instead of filets and it was extremely fabulous. I can only guess how much more wonderful this will be with the filets. Definitely a keeper!
Peppercorn-Crusted Filet Mignon with Port Jus
CindyH Posted: 11/22/09
cookinfabulous Posted: 01/01/09
This is incredible - my husband couldn't stop raving about it. The filets we got were 8 ounces and very thick, so he butterflied them so they wouldn't take forever to cook. The port sauce was wonderful - will definitely be making this one again! The recipe works without any adjustments, and that's a sign of a great recipe :) We served it with Garlicky Mushrooms (also from My Recipes site) and cream cheese mashed potatoes. Perfect for a special meal or company.
carolfitz Posted: 06/24/12
Super-easy. Used beef stock rather than broth and the sauce was sweet & rich, great with the steaks. Served with rice-mushroom pilaf & steamed brussels sprouts. Terrific Saturday dinner.
