Craig Baird's irresistible Carrera Cup form at the 2012 Formula 1 Qantas Australian Grand Prix continued in today's third and final race as he again showed the field a clean pair of heels.
Baird was untroubled in his 1.05-second victory over Jonny Reid, with Alex Davison third – completing the same trifecta in all three Carrera Cup races.
Although he was bested by Baird, Reid was delighted with his performance.
"It's fair to say Craig was in a league of his own this weekend," said Reid. "But personally, to take pole position with a new team and get three second places is something I am really proud of.
"The Porsche just comes alive on this circuit, as the speed and flow suit it down to the ground – a bit like Phillip Island. I'd love to come back again, as this has been an unbelievable weekend."
With the top three drivers immovable, the battle for the lower places in race three carried the most interest, and this time former Bathurst 1000 winner Steve Richards nailed fourth spot, ahead of James Davison and Andrew Heimgartner.
Meanwhile, it wasn't all smooth sailing for three-time F1 winner Heinz-Harald Frentzen, who lost a chunk of spots early on after finding some trouble, and then tapped Daniel Gaunt on the final lap, pushing the New Zealander off track. Despite the misdemeanours, Frentzen still finished eighth, one spot behind young Queenslander Nick Foster.

Bridgeport Hospital:Pioneering Heart Surgery
In some people it causes constant fatigue, severe
shortness of breath, chest pain, palpitations,
light-headedness and exercise intolerance. Other
people dont have any symptoms at all. But all
who have this condition are in danger of stroke
or heart failure.
What is it? An abnormal heart rhythm called
atrial fibrillation (a-fib for short) that affects
about four out of every 100 adults.
In a normal rhythm, the heart beats a steady and
regular 60100 times per minute, but in a-fib, the
heart beats irregularly and can race at 180 beats
or more per minute.
The Problem
Normally the two small upper chambers in the
heart, the atria, receive a strong electrical signal
from one single source. It then travels down
through the heart, causing the atria to contract
in unison. A-fib occurs when extra impulses
start out from the wrong place at the wrong time.
Instead of traveling straight along the highway
through the heart, they branch out along side
roads, detouring to nowhere. This causes the
atria to quiver like a bowl of Jell-O,
which prevents
the blood from being completely pumped
out of the atria into the ventriclesthe lower
chambers of the heart.
People with atrial fibrillation are at increased
risk of developing a stroke or going into heart
failure. In fact, the American Heart Association
says that about 15 percent of all strokes occur in
people who have atrial fibrillation. A-fib is the
second most frequent cause of cardiac hospital
admissions in both men and women. From
three to five percent of people over age 65 have
atrial fibrillation.
If you have an overactive thyroid, high blood
pressure, a history of heart attacks, congestive
heart failure or valve disease, you are at greater
risk of developing atrial fibrillation. (Your cardiologist
can refer you to an electrophysiologist
a physician specializing in the electrical pathways
of the heartfor a definitive diagnosis.)
The Solutions
The primary goals of a-fib treatment are to
improve symptoms and decrease the risk of
stroke. These goals can be accomplished by
1. slowing down the heart rate
2. reducing the risk of clots that can cause a
stroke, using anticoagulation medications
(blood thinners)
3. restoring the heart to its normal rhythm
A-fib can be controlled with medication to slow
the heartbeat, but it may take several drugs, it
may take time to find the right dosages, and the
medications can have side effects such as nausea,
drowsiness and blurry vision.
If medication cant keep the atrial fibrillation in
check, the next step is often cardioversion. This
is an electric shock that can quiet the heart so
that the normal heart rhythm is restored. Other
treatment options are
atrial pacemakers implanted
under the skin to help regulate the heart
rhythm and implantable
defibrillators that can
restart the heart if the ventricles stop beating.
Surgery is also an
option. The goal is to use a
laser to burn certain areas of heart muscle. This
creates scar tissue, which will not conduct electricity.
Thus the impulse is guided into the proper
electrical pathway. Until recently, catheter
ablation (inserting a thin laser-tipped catheter
through a vein and up to the heart to burn away
unwanted tissue) and the Cox Maze procedure
have been the only types of surgery available.
However, they have drawbacks: The catheter
ablation does not work for everyone, and the
Cox Maze surgery is a five-to-six hour openchest
operation during which the heart is
stopped and the patient is connected to a heart
lung machine.
The Possibility of a Cure
Today, the Wolf Mini-Mazethe newest and
most promising surgeryoffers many patients
the possibility of a cure for a-fib. Bridgeport
Hospital cardiothoracic surgeons
M. Clive
Robinson, MD, and
Juan Sanchez, MD,
of Cardiothoracic Surgery, are among the very
few surgeons in the nation with the special
training to perform this surgery. It is a minimally
invasive procedure (meaning that it does
not require the opening of the chest or the stopping
of the heart) and takes about three hours.
Through small incisions on each side of the
chest cavity, the surgeon uses a laser to create
the maze of scar tissue to guide the misguided
electrical signals along the proper route. This
allows the atria to function normally, producing
a steady, regular, strong heartbeat. Patients
generally go home in about three days, and
they can be back at work in three weeks.
With more than 40 years of experience,
Bridgeport Hospital offers a comprehensive
range of cardiovascular services that includes
open-heart surgery, angioplasty, and cardiac
rehabilitation and wellness programs.

Editor's note: Adam King, who plays the King of France in First Presbyterian Theater's production of "The Lion in Winter," wrote this for The News-Sentinel.
Christmas is a wonderful time of the year, unless you're in Chinon, France, it's 1183, and you are King Henry II of England. James Goldman's comedic drama "The Lion in Winter," which previews tonight at First Presbyterian Theater, is based loosely on historical accounts, delving deeply into the psychology of what it really means to be powerful, what it really means to be in control and what it really means to be a family. Henry's family meets to settle an almost two-decade-long score and decide which of Henry's three sons will be the next king of England.
As Henry exclaims at one particularly heated moment, "Power is the only fact," but Kate Black, a First Presbyterian Theater regular who plays Henry's banished queen, Eleanor of Aquitaine, sees more than mere power at the heart of this story.
"Love is at the heart of this play," Black explains. "Power is critical, certainly, but the love between Henry and Eleanor, the history, the comfort and familiarity, even in the midst of the strife, is what drives the action."
Bob Haluska, Black's real-life husband, plays the legendary king opposite Black, becoming "fascinated with Henry and his greatness and his all-too-human failings" during the process.
"The range of Henry's journey is incredible," Haluska said. "He goes from being an able and just ruler of much of the known world to a harried husband and father to a lovesick puppy dog."
Black mirrored her husband's thoughts about the range of complexity of this aging set of royals.
"Eleanor's complexity is a fascinating aspect of her character," Black said. "It is the way in which she connects her love and yearning for control that really makes her interesting."
Love and a certain yearning for control are aspects found in all the characters. Each of Henry's sons – Richard, played by Chad Kennerk, Geoffrey, played by Kevin Torwelle, and John, played by Maxwell Berger-Butler – vie for the crown and attempt to circumvent Henry and Eleanor's plans about who should rule.
Throw in Henry's mistress, Alais, played by Meagan Matlock, who has plans of her own, as well as the young French king, Philip, played by Adam King, who will prove to be more of a thorn in Henry's side than the aging king could have imagined, and Goldman creates a wonderful story about dysfunctional families – in this case, a royally dysfunctional family.
"This dark comedy is about people who are willing to get what they want through any means necessary," Torwelle said. "All involved are willing to sacrifice anything or anyone: family, friends or any shred of morality to get what they want. They are willing to destroy what is our greatest gift: our family."
"The Lion in Winter," directed by Ranae Butler, previews tonight and runs through Jan. 19.

Hi There. joysann here. Have you experienced this?
This morning I'm looking at a huge audiobook case with 33 disks in it. I have been dying to get this book, and I'm certain I'm going to love it. Yet I'm looking at the box here with trepidation and hesitate to get started.
What I'm looking at is the VERY LAST book in a series into which I've invested years, twelve of them, at least. The series is Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time. It's a wonderful sword and sorcery fantasy epic that has enthralled millions, including me. Here it is, something I've been waiting for… The. Very. Last. Book. I'm feeling reluctant and a little sorrowful about listening to it. When I do, it's all over. And that makes me sad.
Robert Jordan passed away in 2007 with the story incomplete. But his estate contracted celebrated fantasy author Brandon Sanderson to use the notes and plans that Jordan left behind to complete the series the way he intended. Sanderson wrote the last couple of books, and I have been very happy with the results, and think he's done justice to Jordan's work. Since the release of A Memory of Light in early January this year, I have completely avoided any reviews or spoilers regarding this last book for I want only my opinions in my head. I want the wonder of it all for myself.
Another part of my regret involves the audiobook itself. All fourteen books in the series have been read by two fantastic narrators, Michael Kramer and Kate Reading. These two have faithfully rendered the characters the same way with the same voices for all of these years, and they are wonderful to listen to. I have listened to all 30-something disks of each book at least twice, and I know that I will go back through the whole series again some day, just for the comfort of listening.
But this is the last book. I'm almost afraid to start it, and afraid for it to end. I'm thrilled and sad, all at the same time.
Book 14 of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time, A Memory of Light by Brandon Sanderson, audiobook from MacMillan Audio, read by Michael Kramer and Kate Reading.
Bottom Line: Once I start this, DON'T BOTHER ME. I'm busy!

p. 230 – Italian Grill - Waxy Potatoes in Chianti Vinegar
What a delightfully different dish, we absolutely loved this! I must confess though, we didn't have Chianti Vinegar so I used Pinot Noir vinegar which worked well since we were serving Pinot Noir w the meal as well. Prep is straightforward. Potatoes are scrubbed and par-boiled then cut into slices and tossed in a mixture of olive oil, celery seeds and scallions then placed on a skewer. I made some substitutions here, since I have a massive crop of chives this year, I used chives in place of the scallions and, I used fennel seeds instead of celery seeds. Skewers are then grilled until potatoes are browned and tender. The book has you toss hot potatoes in a mixture of Dijon, EVOO, vinegar, scallions, salt and pepper yet if you look at the photo in the book, you'll see that the potatoes are actually plated on the their skewers w the dressing drizzled over the top. We opted for the latter approach to avoid having the potatoes get crushed during the tossing process since we had guests, I felt this made for a nicer presentation. This was absolutely fabulous and my new favourite way of preparing potatoes. Happy to recommend this dish.
re: Breadcrumbs
Waxy Potatoes in Chianti Vinegar - p. 230 - Italian Grill
I made this last night. Made everything as directed. BC describes the process. The only difference is that I did not make substitutions.
This recipe makes a ton of vinaigrette. I made the full recipe, but didn't use all the vinaigrette on the potatoes. The dressing is very mustardy. This kept it in emulsion even when it sat on the counter for quite a while. The picture in the book shows a somewhat separated dressing that doesn't really look like what I got from making the recipe. BC's picture above looks more accurate. The description describes the dressing as "creamy". One thing I am starting to notice about this book is that the photos don't seem to match the recipes very well.
That said, we really enjoyed this dish. Kind of like a German potato salad, but grilled, and therefore, better. Definitely worth repeating.
re: MelMM
Glad you enjoyed that Mel and I totally agree w you about the photos in the book not matching the recipe, I've noticed this on a few occasions now. Your observation regarding German Potato Salad is right on the money and, it made me think about weaving a slice of bacon around the potatoes on the skewers next time I make this . . . mmmmm!
re: MelMM
Couldn't agree more on the photos. It is almost like the photos were all produced by a food stylist, who might or might not have actually followed the recipe. Or maybe they took pictures before testing the recipes? Modified the recipes and never bothered to reshoot?
I was just telling my guests the other night that there should be a truth-in-photo law for cookbooks, and that this one would fail.
re: smtucker
It's quite odd really. In my experience, the recipes have been solid so why wouldn't you want, or insist that the photography reflects the recipe as written?
I watched an interview of Mario where he sung the praises of Quentin Bacon who typically does the photography in his books. MB was critical of cookbooks where the food doesn't look "real" and is overly stylized or staged. His new photographer for Italian Grill must have missed part of the memo. Her food looks real but it would appear that, in an effort to style plates, she's gone off course using incorrect saucing and garnishes.
re: Breadcrumbs
p. 230 – Italian Grill - Waxy Potatoes in Chianti Vinegar
Tried these last night. I don't have much to add. They were quick and easy. My husband loved them, I thought they were a little too bitter, perhaps due to inferior ingredients (we used ordinary red wine vinegar instead of chianti vinegar), I'd pull back on the mustard next time.
We'll do these again, maybe changing up the flavors, because we're always looking for ways to do potatoes on the grill.
re: Breadcrumbs
Waxy Potatoes in (Burgundy) Vinegar, p. 230.
I had small fingerling potatoes, so I didn't parboil or slice them. I treated them as called for, only substituting Burgundy vinegar for the Chianti. Since they were so small, I didn't skewer them, but placed them in a grill basket instead.
I dressed them as written, and we enjoyed the taste of these potatoes quite a bit. With the vinaigrette, I agree with MelMM, it does remind one a bit of a warm potato salad. Our main dish had pancetta in it, which would have been better placed in these potatoes.
I'm not even going to post my ugly photo, as the fingerlings just look like a plate of in-shell peanuts.
re: L.Nightshade
LN I laughed out loud at your last line! Glad you enjoyed your peanuts!! ; - )
re: Breadcrumbs
Waxy Potatoes in Chianti Vinegar, Pg. 230, Italian Grill
My turn for these ever popular potatoes. Used Alessi red wine vinegar which comes from Tuscany, home of Chianti Classico, so in effect I used Chianti vinegar. Used 5 Yukon gold potatoes and celery seeds, EVOO, but had no scallions so subbed sliced red onion. We steamed the potato slices, then after cooling them down tossed them in 1/2 mixture of the dressing.
My skewers were very long and after trying to put a few slices on it soon became obvious that was not going to happen so G grilled them on the indoor grill pan. I probably didn't slice the potatoes wide enough. Anyway, after the slices were cooked more dressing was drizzled over.
These were quite tasty and I'll probably make them again the way Molto intended. But for last night's dinner they were fine.
re: Gio
I made the Waxy Potatoes last night too. I used Cab. vinegar as I couldn't find Chianti. I liked the dressing very much. I used tiny, tiny potatoes so I skewered them whole. I think this was a mistake as I didn't have any whites exposed to toast up. Never the less, a very tasty potato side dish. I would make this again. I served this with the Asparagus wrapped in Pancetta, and I loved, loved, loved this dish. The dressing was very refreshing! Though I 1/2ed the dressing recipe, I still have tons left over, so I am planning on using it on tonight's salad.
p. 177 in Molto Gusto - Pennette with Swiss Chard Ragu
This was the first recipe I made from Batali, and it was good. I had some fresh homegrown Swiss chard just waiting to be used and when I saw this I knew I had to make it. It really brings out the Swiss Chard and makes for a great pasta dish. The bread crumbs really make the perfect topping as well. My family called it 'a keeper.'
Penne all'Arrabbiata, Pg. 164, Molto Gusto
All these years I thought I made a pretty tasty and spicy arrabbiata. Not quite so. This was different. No garlic, no basil, no oregano, no parsley, all of which appear in other recipes from Bugialli to Esposito. Also, Rao's uses Pecorino Romano. Batalli uses Parmigiano Reggiano. And, he does not heat the oilive oil.
So, what does he do? First, 1 1/2 cups of strained Pomi tomatoes are simmered till reduced by half. A quarter cup of tomato paste is mixed with 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes and heated till fragrant then the reduced sauce is added. The pan is now taken off heat. Cook the penne till al dente, drain and add to the sauce along with 1/2 cup pasta water. Put the pan over a medium flame and toss the pasta till well coated with sauce. Taste for seaoning adding Maldon salt if necessary, then add 1/4 cup EVOO, mix all together and serve with grated Reggiano on the side.
This was really very nice. Fresh tasting even though boxed tomatoes were used. The tablespoon of RPF were not too hot at all and by not heating the oil it seemed more like a warm macaroni salad rather than a heavily spiced pasta dish. Excellent.
re: greedygirl
Hi gg, I made a mussel dish that called for Pomis and, the same technique employed in Gio's dish. Essentially Pomi's strained tomatoes are pureed Italian tomatoes. In my experience, passata is a cooked sauce so I think if you could buy a can/box of Italian tomatoes, whole or chopped and, puree them, you'd be in good shape.
re: Breadcrumbs
Passata in the UK is just sieved tomatoes - not cooked afaik. So sounds like I can just use that. I do find it strange that most American recipes specify canned Italian tomatoes - all tinned tomatoes in the UK are Italian!
re: greedygirl
I simply strained whole tomatoes in a sieve. I would have used a China cap if I had one.
re: greedygirl
I often saw Pomi tomatoes in France. A bit surprised you don't have them in the UK. Here is a link to the box. What I like about them is the size. With only two eating in the house these days, a large can can be too much.
re: smtucker
Never seen them here, but there are loads and loads of similar products. Is Pomi meant to be a particularly good brand? As for size, 14oz is the regular size for a tin of tomatoes, but you can get them half that size as well.
re: greedygirl
That is what I have been told, but haven't done a scientific taste test. We have very few products packaged this way. It is still fairly novel. Personally, if a large can of San Marzano is not too much for your family, I think they taste a bit better.
re: greedygirl
Pomi brand tomatoes are Italian tomatoes, from Italy. What's great about Pomi is that there are no additives whatsoever. It's just tomatoes and nothing else--whether strained or chopped.
I used to buy exclusively San Marzano canned tomatoes, but at least in the States the name has become corrupted in the past few years. There are lots of canned tomatoes on the shelves with labels that say San Marzano that aren't. I read not too long ago that even the DOP designation on the label of well-known brands has been faked. In fact, the problem was so widespread, that the manager at Fairway told me they stopped carrying any brand of San Marzano tomatoes because they couldn't be sure they were getting the real product for the premium price they were paying. That's when I switched to Pomi and have stayed with it ever since. Very fresh flavor, no added sodium, practically unlimited shelf life. I even found them in Guatemala--although granted at a steep price in a specialty import store. Really surprised they're not available in the UK.

Penne all'Arrabbiata – p. 164 – Molto Gusto
Holy moly, our penne was MOLTO arrabbiato!!! As Gio notes, this dish calls for
1 tbsp of hot red pepper flakes which did seem like a lot. I mean, we like it hot…truly, we love hot spicy food but this was pretty darn hot, a little too "angry" for our tastes.
In sales they say "KYC" …. know your customer. Well here I say KYC. . . know your chilies!!! I went w the 1 tbsp against my better judgment but Mario hasn't let me down yet so I blindly followed along . . . foolishly! In a sick kind of way, I couldn't stop eating this, I mean that's what chilies do . . . right?! They grab you with their addictive properties, make you want more pain!!! Poor mr bc, sweat was beading on his forehead, his eyes were tearing up (all the while I'm smiling and telling him he looks fine even though his ears had turned the colour of purple beets!!)…. I'd even tossed some chicken in his bowl to appease his "it's not dinner if there isn't meat" tendencies but alas, the heat beat him down and, for the first time in a very long time, he couldn't finish his meal.
My chilies were just too powerful for this dish. Nonetheless, as Gio said, I still appreciated the intense tomato flavour achieved by reducing the Pomi and, I admit, I had to add some fresh basil, I mean I'm harvesting it by the bushel at this point so if you're consuming something at our house, chances are you'll have some basil in it!!
I'd still recommend this but caution to add chilies to taste. I'll make this again. . . . once mr bc is feeling better!!! ; - )
re: Breadcrumbs
Oh dear, colored ears -- I know that feeling. In our house we're way behind the rest of the world in appreciating heat in food, so this account grabbed me.
And it's funny that Gio described this as "warm macaroni salad" !
As always, interesting review, Breadcrumbs.
re: blue room
Thanks blue room. mr bc still hasn't forgiven me!!
Penne alla Paplina - page 179 - Molto Gusto
Something went wrong. Was it me? Was it the instructions? I don't know, but I found this pasta dish meh which makes no sense. Pork, cheese, eggs, peas and pasta; what could go wrong?
I made a half recipe and was shocked to discover that I didn't have enough penne rigate in the cupboard. I substituted a DeCecco No 7 Linguini Fini.
So, this is pretty straight ahead. Get the water boiling, drop in the pasta and heat a pan over medium high heat. Add the oil and prosciutto that has been cut into 1 inch squares. Cook for 5 minutes until crisp, turn off the heat and add the peas. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs. When the pasta is done, reserve some of the water, and drain the pasta.
Add the pasta to the prosciutto and eggs and turn the burner to medium high. Add some oil and reserved water to the eggs, whisk and add to the pan. Turn off the heat and start mixing with a spoon.
The minute those eggs hit the pan, they wanted to scramble. In fact, some of them did scramble. Toss in and mix the cheese. If needed, add more of the pasta water but my mixture didn't seem to need it.
By the time the pasta was in the bowls, it had tightened up and I wish I had added more water. Add lots of black pepper. DH did, I didn't.
To me, this dish seemed just heavy and clumpy. The combined flavors seemed less than each flavor on its own. I don't understand why we hit the pan with tons of heat just as the eggs were going to go in. And there isn't enough interest to make this a main course. Perhaps a little swirl between antipasti and a real main would be better, but I doubt I will try this one again.
re: smtucker
Bummer. Thanks for taking one for the team. As you say, how could you go wrong with those ingredients, but sometimes it's just too much, I guess. I've got some CSA peas and this would have been a contender, so thanks for warning us off it.
re: smtucker
smtucker so sorry this dish underwhelmed. I too had it marked and imagined it would be like a Carbonara w peas. I wonder if MB erred in suggesting that the pan be at medium high when the eggs are incorporated? When I make carbonara I prefer the heat at med-low to prevent the eggs from scrambling. Thanks for your review, if I do make the dish, I'll definitely have your experience in mind.
re: smtucker
Very sorry to read this report. My CSA is chock full of peas (three kinds, in fact) so I had my eye on this one. Even your description of the process sounds tasty.
Like Breadcrumbs, I'll take your words under advisement. And, since I've never made carbonara, I will probably follow Breadcrumbs suggestion of lowering the heat.
re: smtucker
Interesting. The only carbonara I make is Marcella Hazan's and the eggs and cheeses are in the pasta bowl. The pasta, pancetta, oil, etc. is added to that. Yeah, why would you hit the heat when doing that?
re: smtucker
Penne all Papalina – p. 179 – Molto Gusto
A surprisingly hearty, delicious dish that I'm happy to recommend, with caution.
smtucker reviewed this dish up thread and observed that the eggs wanted to scramble in the pan. Despite having the benefit of her experience and, making some adjustments, I had the same issue. Luckily, since I was expecting there may be a problem, I was able to adjust and the dish didn't suffer significantly.
smtucker's description of the prep up thread is spot on so I'll just pick up where I changed things. Once I'd stirred in the pasta over medium heat, I removed the pan from the heat to stir in the tempered egg mixture. I started slowly and, good thing I did as the first egg mixture to hit the pan started cooking despite my furious stirring. I let the pan cool down somewhat and carried on with no further issue.
Other adaptations at casa bc were, the use of fresh peas instead of frozen and, my prosciutto was a smoked variety carried by a local Italian deli.
I imagined this dish to remind me of Carbonara and while it did, we particularly liked the use of prosciutto, especially in 1" squares as it brought nice flavour and texture. The penne rigate was also nice for a change as we tend to make Carbonara w spaghetti. Some of the peas snuck inside the pasta and added a nice little surprising pop as you bit down on the macaroni.
Despite the mishap, we loved this dish and I'd happily make it again, with my further revised method. I think the penne retains more heat than spaghetti and may contribute to the scrambling issue. I'd use them again but just let the pan cool slightly before adding the egg mixture as I did above.
re: Breadcrumbs
Just a suggestion, but next time try taking a spoonful or two of pasta out of the pan and stir those into the egg mixture off the heat, before incorporating the egg mixture into the pasta on the stove. This will allow the eggs to thicken but not scramble before they are added to the hot pan.

Its official, the Rangers have signed Alexander Frolov to a
one-year, $3 million deal. As we
discussed yesterday, Frolov has a lot of Nik Zherdev in him and could be an
extremely frustrating experiment for the Rangers. But the one-year deal makes this much easier
to stomach.
The signing also changes a lot that we thought we knew about
the Rangers:
Wade Redden is gone. There's
no denying the inevitability now and even the most unconvinced Rangers fans
that thought GM Glen Sather couldn't swallow his pride and ship his biggest
mistake to Hartford,
have to agree. The Rangers have just
over $1.5 million remaining under the Salary Cap to sign Restricted Free Agent
Marc Staal, obviously not enough money for Staal to even consider. Staal can realistically expect a deal between
$4-4.5 million, and it's difficult to see where that extra $3 million can come
from, barring an unforeseen trade, except through the purging of Redden's
contract. Like Frolov or hate him, the
biggest wish of many Rangers fans has been to see Redden banished. If Frolov is the catalyst that grants that
wish, it's hard not to be happy about this deal whether Frolov scores three
goals or 30.
The kids aren't going to get a chance this year. Despite Sather's claims that the likes of
Evgeny Grachev, Derek Stepan, Ethan Werek, Mats Zuccarello-Aasen, etc. would
have a chance to win a roster spot out of training camp, the addition of Frolov
makes this nearly impossible. The
Rangers have 12 forwards basically set in stone: Vinny Prospal, Marian Gaborik,
Erik Christensen, Brandon Dubinsky, Ryan Callahan, Artem Anisimov, Chris Drury,
Sean Avery, Frolov, Brandon Prust, Brian Boyle, and Derek Boogaard. Outside of two of the likely fourth liners
(Boyle and Boogaard) the rest of the roster is pretty set in stone. Maybe Dale Weise or Dane Byers can rotate
with Boyle and Boogaard and push them for playing time. But it's extremely unlikely that the Rangers
would want to put their offensive future on the fourth line where they'd get
five minutes of ice time a game with offensively challenged players. We've heard raves about the progress of the
Rangers top prospects, but evidently Sather has decided they'd best be served
by at least one more developmental year.
Sather has changed. Yeah, the kids won't get much of a look this year. But the host of one and two-year contracts
doled out by Sather is critical evidence that he is committed to turning the
roster over to the youth, when it's ready. Some may be angered that the prospects don't really have any shot at
making the team this year. But they
should be consoled that Sather hasn't compromised any of the roster spots
reserved for the youngsters in the long-term. Prospal and Frolov will almost certainly be gone next summer, opening
two top-six forward spots for kids. Drury, Avery, and Christensen will all be entering the last years of
their contracts and one of them, most likely Christensen, could easily be moved
if a third kid is ready. Sather may have
spent some money, but he spent it wisely. Three million dollars this year alone doesn't have much impact on the future
of the franchise.
Frolov is as motivated as he's capable of being. Arthur Staple (who has been all over the Frolov negotiations) reported that
Frolov spurned a four-year, $20 million deal from the KHL to play one more year
in the NHL and then consider his options. That's $2 million more this season than he'll get from the Rangers and
$17 million more total. In other words,
a LOT of cash. Frolov and his agents are clearly peeved at the way the Kings treated
him and the way he has been portrayed publicly. Only time will tell if they're right, or if Frolov's reputation is
deserved. But there's no doubt Frolov
has a chip on his shoulder and is eager to prove he not only belongs in the
NHL, but is deserving of significant money and is a legitimate star. Given his talent, there's at least a chance
that it could translate into a monster season. And if not, next summer he'll be gone just as Zherdev was last
The Rangers have three decent lines. They still are missing the top-end talent
required to challenge for a Stanley Cup. But the Rangers do have three lines that at least on paper should be
able to provide some offense. Obviously
John Tortorella will tinker with the lines on a daily basis, but my guess as to
how it plays out:
Prospal Christensen Gaborik
Frolov Anisimov Callahan
Dubinsky Drury Avery (Yes, I know he's not a
natural RW)
Boogaard Boyle Prust
The goal of the Rangers brain trust is ALWAYS to make the
playoffs. Many believe that the easiest
way to return the Rangers to contention is to turn the roster over to
inexperienced players and effectively tank for a series of top-five or top-ten
picks. But the reality is the Rangers
will never tank. The goal is always to
make the playoffs, and reap the revenue rewards that come with the
postseason. While the constant acquisitions
of high-priced free agents and trades at the deadline mean the Rangers are
stuck in a cycle of just-making or just-missing the playoffs, perhaps the
Rangers deserve accolades for not taking the easy way out. Maybe securing can't miss superstars with top
draft picks is an obvious recipe for success, but is tanking really
commendable? Teams that make no effort
to get better year after year, instead forcing their fan bases to suffer
through losing season after season until magically a Patrick Kane rises, may
have a better shot at the Stanley Cup long-term. But shouldn't the goal of every team be to
win now, tomorrow, and five years from now? Many of the teams that tanked saw a huge revival in their fan bases once
they returned to prominence. But they
only lost those fans in the first place because they stunk so badly. The Rangers are obviously not willing to let
that happen. The front office makes a
ton of mistakes, but it clearly tries to get the Rangers to the playoffs every
year, even if it sometimes blows up in their face. And though the Rangers don't have a top-five
prospect, they've done an extremely admirable job collecting valuable pieces
with the picks they have had, while still making the playoffs four years in a
row before this season. Everyone wants
to win the Stanley Cup, but only one team can do it each year. Perhaps instead of blasting the Rangers for
failing to do so, we should consider the fact that the front office tries every
year, something a lot of fan bases can't say. (I will now duck from flying tomatoes).

Kander statement on conviction of executives behind Petro America scam
Jefferson City, Mo. Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander today announced the conviction of five individuals who played a role in a get-rich-quick scheme that cost thousands of American investors over $10 million with over 300 of those investors from Missouri. The Securities Division of his office originally investigated the case in 2008 and the US Attorney's Office for the Western District of Missouri obtained this conviction after a referral from the Securities Division.
"My office is dedicated to preventing Missourians from being targeted by fraudulent companies," Kander said. "I am glad that our justice system has brought those behind the Petro America scam to justice. Petro America used unrealistic promises to entice unsuspecting investors, encouraging them to invest in a non-existent company. This is a ploy commonly used by fraudsters. I encourage all Missourians to check with my office prior to making investments to ensure the investment and person offering it are registered."
Investors were sold shares to a bogus company called Petro America. Unknowing to the investors, the CEO and his four other individuals spent this money on personal expenditures such as designer suits, international travel and SUVs. On November 12, 2008 the Missouri Secretary of State's Office issued a cease and desist order against the company. In addition to misappropriating the investments, the Missouri Securities Division discovered that the CEO of Petro America, Isreal Hawkins, was in fact not registered to offer investments in the state of Missouri.

The air was so thick with tension, you couldn't cut it with a knife. After falling behind early and often in Game 6 of the 2011 World Series, the St. Louis fans were on the brink of watching the Texas Rangers celebrate on their home turf. Down by two with a man on base and two outs in the bottom of the ninth, David Freese was down to his final strike before launching a two-run triple to the wall in right. With the game now tied and Yadier Molina at the plate with a chance to send the series to Game 7 - SNAP! The moment is preserved for all-time, and is now available for your wall.
While Molina would line out to end the inning, sending the game to the 10th, the drama wasn't done. In the 10th, the Cards would once again tie the game up after going down to their final strike; and in the 11th, it was "Freese Time" again, as his leadoff homer sent the fans into a frenzy and the series into Game 7. This spectacular panoramic print, from legendary sports photographer Rob Arra, captures the scene as it unfolds. With the stadium looking spectacular under the lights, it's all laid out in front of you, in perfect color and crisp detail. And, as an added bonus, the border comes complete with commemorative titles, official World Series logo, and the final scores of each of the Series' seven games for historical perspective. Also inset on the main image are photographs of Freese's Home Run celebration, and the team's championship pile-on a night later after closing out Game 7. Both a stunning view of St. Louis' beautiful stadium, and a lasting commemoration of the historic evening, this is a truly spectacular work of photographic sports art for your wall! Whether you attended the game in person, were watching on TV, are a life-long Cards fan, or are simply a lover of historic baseball moments, this print is for you. A true piece of history for your wall - a perfect centerpiece for your home or office, and a must-have item to add to your collection.

A project is underway in Dimond Library to shift books and integrate journals in the Library's main stacks. This move is required for Library stacks to be in compliance with the current fire code.
To make room for the shift, some bound journals (for which UNH owns electronic access) will be removed from the collection and offered to UNH faculty (first) and then other groups.
Other bound volumes (for which the library does not own electronic access) will be available from the Library's on-campus storage building. The volumes' locations will be indicated and can be requested through the online catalog.
To make access even faster and easier, a scan-on-demand service has been implemented for items in library storage.

"We used this design for our daughter's 16th movie/dinner birthday party invite. Pink, bright colors aren't her style so this card suited her perfectly. The pearl finish gave the card a nice sheen that added a feeling of girly, glamour. Thanks Tiny!"
"I received my cards on time and they were accurate. Tiny prints always makes a "big impression." I use them so often for so many occasions that people have come to expect something exceptional from me. Indeed these cards make a lasting impression. I would highly recommend the product. I should have chosen a paper with shine. It would have made it pop even more."
"The paper colors and print were great. I actually used it for a sweet 16 party. My niece's theme was a mardi gras masquerade, so the design fit perfectly."
"This card was perfect for my mother in laws surprise party! Customer service at tiny prints is outstanding.... can't say enough about their friendly super accomodating service. I needed last minute changes and called twice on two different Sundays. Prompt, friendly service both times. My only complaint is that this particular vendor requires a minimum of 25 on reorders, which was a bummer because I only needed 15. The card quality was great and colors really popped."
"We personalized the text to make this an invitation for my father's retirement party. The envelopes that come with the card are either white or brown. It would have been nice to have an off-white that matches the cardstock color, or a lined envelope. Overall, a very unique design and swift delivery."

Big nuts have come a long way since the days of the Hexcentric; gone are the clunky, heavy beasts of old. Nowadays we have a much lighter and more sophisticated answer to big crack protection.
The Torque Nut shape fits well in normal crack placements, but they have the extra advantage of working extremely well when placed in a camming position. Experiment with this at the bottom of the crag and youll see what we mean.
Weve also given them a double sling. Clip them to your harness, doubled up and neat and they wont be clanking down by your knees. Youve then got the choice of a quick extension once the nut is placed. If you are close to the ground keep it short to reduce fall potential. Further up the pitch pull it into the extended position to reduce drag.

Bruno Senna is refusing to let uncertainty over his future affect his on-track performances...
Bruno Senna is refusing to let uncertainty over his future affect his on-track performances.
With test driver Valtteri Bottas believed to be taking one of the team's two race-seats for next season, either Senna or team-mate Pastor Maldonado could be getting the boot.
However, given that Maldonado not only brings with him hefty sponsorship from oil company PDVSA but also claimed the team's only victory of 2012, it appears as if Senna will be the one making way.
The Brazilian, though, is refusing to let the rumours get to him and claimed only his second back-to-back points-finish of the campaign when he brought his car home in eighth place in Abu Dhabi.
"You do not think about it," he told Globo Esporte.
"I think more about what is happening during the race weekend."

Cafe Bixby and Pizza
"Best Pizza in Town. Take Out & Delivery"
Café Bixby and Pizza provides the best of fine dining, take-out and delivery.
I don't think I've ever had anything here but breakfast. OH how I miss living in Signal Hill because my husband and I used to come here all the time to grab breakfast on the weekends. The staff is great and it's nice to see that after 3 years of being away, nothing has changed. The same usual faces greeted us! The food is solid...good portions and cooked to order. They refill the coffee often - so tell them to STOP if you'd had your limit! If we lived closer, we'd probably come more often and make this our regular breakfast stop like the old days.
-Yelp User
My Wife and I have been coming to Cafe Bixby ever since we moved by to the LBC. The owners are great and the staff is friendly and make sure that you are well taken care of. Cant go wrong with breakfast at Bixby Cafe. Its like taking a step back into time when this place use to be a Park Pantry

Analysis: Supreme Court delays a final showdown over affirmative action
The Texas affirmative action dispute is the first of two Supreme Court cases to be decided this week that deal with the limits of government action to counteract the legacy of state-sponsored racial discrimination. The high court could decide as early as Tuesday an Alabama case challenging key provisions of the landmark 1965 Voting Rights Act. Both cases deal with a sticky political and legal question: A half-century after Congress ended American Apartheid, can the federal government treat Southern states and white students differently than others in the name of remedying past wrongs?

Movies I've Seen A Million Times
The Movie Jesse Eisenberg Has 'Seen A Million Times'
Originally published on Sat June 15, 2013 6:15 pm
The weekends on All Things Considered series Movies I've Seen A Million Times features filmmakers, actors, writers and directors talking about the movies that they never get tired of watching.
Actor Jesse Eisenberg's credits include the movies The Squid and the Whale, Zombieland, The Social Network and Now You See Me — currently in theaters. The movie he could watch a million times is the British film Submarine.
Interview Highlights
On when he first watched Submarine
"A year ago my agents told me that this director Richard Ayoade wanted me to be in a film he was going to make but that they didn't have a script yet, but that he just made this wonderful movie called Submarine. And I never watch movies, I haven't watched a movie in, like, 10 years, I just never watch movies, but I started watching it and I thought it was the most amazing thing I had ever seen. I watched it again right away, which is something that I never do, and I just now watch it all the time. I find it to be very comforting."
On why he finds the film so funny
"You know, in most comedies there's usually like three or four funny scenes and exposition to get you to those funny scenes. And this movie, there's never those moments. There's never a moment where you're feeling like this is a filler scene to get to the next one."
On why he loves the movie
"There's something about every moment in this movie that feels so sweet and fresh and never crass — even though the characters are saying things that are crass, it's just so surprisingly sweet."
On this show, we like to ask people who make and act in movies about the films they never get tired of watching. This week, the star of "The Social Network" shares the one that never gets old for him.
JESSE EISENBERG: Hi, my name is Jesse Eisenberg. I am an actor. And the movie I have seen a million times - or if not a million times, maybe a dozen times - is a movie called "Submarine." It's directed by Richard Ayoade. The actors are Craig Roberts, Yasmin Page, Sally Hawkins, Noah Taylor.
ALEX TURNER: (Singing) I'm not the kind of fool who's gonna sit and sing to you...
CRAIG ROBERTS: (as Oliver Tate) Most people think of themselves as individuals, that there's no one on the planet like them. This thought motivates them to get out of bed, eat food and walk around like nothing's wrong.
EISENBERG: About a year ago, my agents told me that this director, Richard Ayoade, wanted me to be in a film he was going to make but that they didn't have a script yet, but that he'd just made this wonderful movie called "Submarine." And I never watch movies. I haven't watched a movie in, like, 10 years. I just never watch movies. But I started watching it, and I thought it was like the most amazing thing I'd ever seen. I watched it again right away, which is something I never do. And I just now watch it all the time.
ROBERTS: (as Oliver Tate) I don't know if I've come of age, but I'm certainly older now.
EISENBERG: I find it to be very comforting. And the movie as a whole is really wonderful, but what I love about it even more is that each individual moment seem so special.
ROBERTS: (as Oliver Tate) Jordana Bevan's only real flaws are sporadic bouts of eczema.
EISENBERG: The most uninteresting thing about the movie is its description, which is just 15-year-old kid, you know, wanting to kind of lose his virginity and date a girl...
ROBERTS: (as Oliver Tate) She's moderately unpopular, which makes a romance between the two of us more likely. She's also a girl. To be seen with her would improve my street cred, which, though high, could be higher.
EISENBERG: ...and keep his parents' marriage together.
ROBERTS: (as Oliver Tate) My parents have not had sex in seven months. I've been monitoring their intimacy by the dimmer switch in their bedroom. I know when they've been at it because the next morning the dial would be set to halfway.
EISENBERG: Sounds like I'm describing 1,000 different movies. But this one is unlike any of those. It has its own aesthetic and its own story to tell. And it's as real and original as anything else.
ROBERTS: (as Oliver Tate) I wish life could be more like American soap operas. Then, whenever things got dramatic, you could just fade the picture down and pick things up again later.
EISENBERG: Every scene is so wonderful. It's not like the kind of movie where, you know, you kind of tap your friend when you're watching it, like, oh wait, no. Just quiet down. This is the good part. You know, in most comedies, there's usually like three or four funny scenes and then exposition to get you to those funny scenes. And this movie, there is never those moments. There's never a moment where you're feeling like this is a filler scene to get to the next one.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN: (as Character) This is about dipping your wick. You've done that. Game over.
EISENBERG: There's this great scene that's just - these three kids are walking down the hall, and one of the kids is kind of crass and he's telling the main character that he's got to break up with the girlfriend because they already had sex and why is he dealing with her emotional - in her life.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN: (as Character) God, you're lame. Do you actually (unintelligible)?
EISENBERG: There's something about every moment in this movie that feels so sweet and fresh and never crass. Even though the characters are saying things that are crass, it's just so surprisingly sweet.
TURNER: (Singing) I etched the face of a stopwatch...
LYDEN: That's actor Jesse Eisenberg talking about the movie he could watch a million times, "Submarine." Eisenberg's new film, "Now You See Me," is out now. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

"I'm so pleased to find LemonUp Shampoo! It was my favorite shampoo during my teen years. It smells just as fresh and lemony as back then AND gives my hair super shine.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane and for bringing back an excellent product." - Kris Meehan, Carmel, NY

I will be a lifelong customer!" - Joyce, Plano, TX
"When I saw the story on The Today Show, I almost fell out of my chair with excitement. I called my mother with tears in my eyes. I couldn't believe after all of these years of searching for my favorite shampoo and conditioner from the '70s that your store now carries it. I have put in an order and am looking forward to once again having that wonderful-smelling hair. The memories of those days came flooding back, and I can tell you that my husband of over 30 years was one of those who told me how terrific my hair smelled when I used this product in high school in the '70s. Thank you for making my day!" - Brenda Wright, Cedartown, GA
"I was a teen in the '70s and used this shampoo all the time. It actually could smell up a small room. I got lots of compliments. There is nothing out there that you can compare it to. This is a very special shampoo. I can't wait to order it. Thanks, Vermont Country Store!" - Maureen, Gilson, IL
"Please don't ever stop selling this product, because it keeps me young! The '70s were awesome, and I pity those who didn't get to experience it and great products like these that are such great memory triggers! Now, if you could figure out a way to get my high school boyfriend back, I'd be eternally grateful!" - Cynthia Beye, Marshalltown, IA
"There is no shampoo in the world better for those of us with oily hair than LemonUp. I have to wash my hair every day, but when I use LemonUp, every two or three days is enough." - Peggy, Delray Beach, FL
"LemonUp Shampoo is a wonderful memory from my teen years. I vividly remember the fresh lemon smell and the squeaky-clean feel and the shine my hair had.

I can't thank you enough for letting me relive this fond memory!" - Sharon Daniel, Knoxville, TN
"My friends and I are turning 50 this year, so I bought this for my one blonde friend who used it all the time. She cried when she saw it and said she had gotten it every year in her stocking. She couldn't wait to take it to work to let everyone smell it. Those were the best of times!" - Jeri Skinner, Mayport, PA
"I am so excited that VCS has brought Lemon Up Shampoo & Conditioner back! I was a teen in the 70's too and there is no better shampoo to use to get your hair literally squeaky clean. I am almost 50 now and still have oily hair and can't wait till my order arrives! Thanks, VCS, y'all are the best." - Sara Monson, Old Hickory, TN
"Talk about a blast from the past! I was dumbfounded to see that you have LemonUp shampoo -- I remember taking it to camp 36 years ago! It's like opening a box and finding a treasure from your childhood." - Liz, Washington, DC
"I was wondering if they made Lemon Up anymore and decided to Google it. And lo and behold, I can't believe it! It's still being made. I always used this shampoo for my waist-long hair back in the 70's because I had oily hair, and wow did it make it so shiny." - Sylvia Arnold, Houston, TX
"My sister bought this for me as a gift, and as soon as I tried it, my high school and college years were back. My hair felt truly clean, shiny and smelled great. Ordering another bottle today as a reserve. Thanks for making it available!!!!" - Cheryhl, Levittown, NY

Though in existence for a mere 35 years and based in the northern city of Calama, Club de Deportes Cobreloa have established themselves as one of the biggest sides in Chilean football and a threat to the domination and popularity enjoyed by the Santiago triumvirate of Colo Colo, Universidad de Chile and Universidad Catolica.
FIFA.com tells the short but successful story of a humble provincial club that has dared to challenge Chile's big three.
Birth of an institution
Located fully 1,700 kilometres north of the Chilean capital of Santiago, Calama is a mining city through and through. It was there in 1915 that Chuquicamata, the world's largest open-cast mine and the country's largest copper-producing mine, opened for business.
It was at the start of the 1950s that the first attempt to found a football club was made in the city, though it would not be until 1976 that the project finally began to take shape, when a sizeable group of politicians, businessmen and sports personalities joined forces under the slogan "Now or never".
The initiative came to fruition on 7 January 1977 with the founding of Club Cobreloa, which took the place of amateur outfit Deportes Loa when their 28-year existence came to an end. The name of the new institution was an amalgam of the word cobre, which is Spanish for copper – the commodity for which the area is famous – and Loa, the name of the river that runs through Calama and also gives its name to the province in which it is situated.
The making of a legend
Cobreloa played their first games in red shirts and white shorts, though it was not long before they switched to the all coppery orange kit they still wear today. Nor was it long before they found their way into the top flight, winning promotion from the second division in the very year they were founded and staying put ever since.
Achieved under coach Andres Prieto, that early success was just a pointer to what El Zorro del Desierto would achieve in the first division, where they finished runners-up in 1978 and 1979. A year later, this time with the Argentinian Vicente Cantatore in the dugout, they went one better, winning the first of four league titles in the 80s, a decade in which they also came second twice, in 1981 and 1983.
They followed up that maiden championship win by making their name on the international scene, reaching the first of two consecutive Copa Libertadores finals in 1981. In that year's semi-final phase they faced Uruguayan giants Penarol and Nacional, the defending champions and their first opponents in the three-team group in Montevideo.
"We're going to play our game no matter what happens," cried an impassioned Cantatore before the game. "We are the champions of Chile and we demand respect!"
After seeing off El Bolso 2-1 in that game and becoming the first Chilean side ever to win in Uruguay, Cobreloa went on to beat Penarol home and away and win the group unbeaten. Waiting for them in the final were the mighty Flamengo of Brazil, a side boasting the likes of Junior and Zico, who scored both Fla's goals in their 2-1 win in the first leg. And after the Chileans had forced a play-off with a 1-0 victory in the return leg in Calama, Zico did for them again with another brace in the decider.
That talented Cobreloa line-up featured players of the calibre of Mario Soto, Hugo Tabilo, Armando Alarcon, Victor Merello, Ruben Gomez and Hector Puebla, who were joined the following season by Juan Carlos Letelier and Washington Olivera as the men from Calama once again made the Libertadores final.
Their executioner on this occasion was Penarol. Following a goalless draw in the Uruguayan capital, El Naranja lost the home leg in agonising circumstances, conceding the only goal of the tie in the very last minute.
The 1988 title, achieved thanks in no small part to the exquisite skills of Argentinian midfielder Marcelo Trobbiani, gave way to a period as barren as the Atacama desert in which Calama is located. Aside from winning the 1992 title, their fifth in all, and finishing runners-up the following season, the 90s proved to be wilderness years for Cobreloa.
A total of 11 years separated Cobreloa's fifth and sixth championship wins, the drought finally being broken in the 2003 Apertura, when they thrashed Colo Colo – their bitterest rivals despite the geographical distance between them – 4-0 in the second leg of the play-off final, the second time they had snatched the title from El Cacique. Such is the rivalry between the two clubs that Naranja fans are intensely proud of the fact that Colo Colo have never won a title in Calama, the only ground in inland Chile where they have failed to do so.
The present
Clausura champions in 2003 and 2004, Cobreloa became a public limited sports company in March 2006. Since then it has produced a succession of talented youngsters, among them Alexis Sanchez, Eduardo Vargas and Junior Fernandes, now with Barcelona, Napoli and Bayer Leverkusen respectively. They enjoyed their best season of late in 2011, when they took second place in the Clausura.
The stadium
Opened in 1952, the Estadio Municipal de Calama was originally built to stage amateur matches and has been refurbished on many occasions since Cobreloa took up residence there. Now boasting a capacity of 20,000, the stadium has provided the setting for six of the club's championship wins. Situated nearly 2,400 metres above sea level, it is also used by the Chilean national team, mainly in their preparations for matches at high altitude.
