Game 1
Video: Andrew Shaw's 3OT Game-Winning Goal
After two full overtime periods, the Blackhawks and Bruins were understandably exhausted.
Bruins After Game 1 Loss: 'No Choice, You Just Bounce Back'
The Boston Bruins find themselves in a 0-1 hole after Wednesday night's triple-overtime loss to the Chicago Blackhawks in the Stanley Cup Final, but they aren't hanging their heads in defeat.
Blackhawks Beat Bruins 4-3 In 3OT Cup Opener
Andrew Shaw skated off to the side and pumped his arms furiously. One shot from the right point plus two deflections was just enough to beat Tuukka Rask in the fifth-longest Stanley Cup finals game in history.

"We ordered these and within 3 days, they were on my doorstep! The quality of both the paper and print were exceptional. Everyone loved them! Highly recommend this company."
"Searched high and low for gender neutral, bear themed baby shower invites. These were perfect! I ordered them at about 11 pm on Sunday night, and they were delivered early Tuesday. This was a wonderful surprise, because I did not pay for express shipping. Quality is great! I got tons of compliments when I sent them out. Super impressed with Tiny Prints."
"this card was easy to put together, easy to find on internet, easy to decide script, and most important of all it came to my front door in just a few days. Much faster than they promised. Thank you --we love the cards. Nannie"
"Overall I'm really happy with this purchase. The quality of the invite is great. It's heavy cardstock. I was also pleased that the envelopes weren't flimsy, thin pieces of paper. I used this as a gender neutral invitation. I wanted to use an invite that allowed me to include a photo, but that didn't require several photo's on the front of the invite. This was one of the few invites that allowed me to do that. I was able to upload a sonogram picture on the front and I used a phote of my bump on the back of the invite. I appreciated that I was able to include information on the back of the invite because there isn't a lot of room for additional info on the front. The price was relatively inexpensive compared to several other sites/invites I looked at. I needed to expedite the shipping. I received the invites 3 days after placing my order, so I was very pleased."
"Everything about this invitation is wonderful. We even put my fiance's and my baby pictures on the backside, which everyone loved it. It was like getting a postcard with our pictures on it."

Dear Ms. Vicki,
I have been married to an Air Force nurse for over a year now. We've been together for five years but have not lived together for about three.
I am a certified social studies teacher in Pennsylvania for grades 7-12. My wife is stationed in Ohio. Last year, I had to go through a great deal of work to get certified to teach in Ohio as well.
I have been applying feverishly through the Ohio consortium for two years now (first year with a certificate pending and this year with a completed certificate in Ohio) to no avail.
Living apart last year was different because my wife was deployed to Afghanistan. Also, I didn't know anyone in Ohio. I was content in staying in Pennsylvania with family and friends I knew.
Now she is back and staying in a house by herself in Ohio. I am not comfortable with this. She has issues around the house that I could fix. We would like to start a family. At the same time, we both don't want to lose the income I can bring in as an educator with a Master's degree and years of experience teaching.
I'm not the type of person who looks for a handout, and I prefer doing things on my own merit. I just can't find anything. Plus we are getting close to a time in which she can relocate.
I don't know if there is anything the military can do to get me set up at a school and help me again if we do relocate. My fear is 1) not being able to find a job in Ohio and 2) once I get a job, not finding a job in the next place we go and being stuck in Ohio with a teaching job. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Educated Husband
Dear Husband,
There are 23 states that have adopted laws that make licensing easier for teachers. Ohio is not one of those states. So I applaud you for getting your licensing in order for a new state.
One thing for sure, it's very important for you and your wife to start living together. I'm sure you have a solid relationship, but three years living separately is a long time.
Many military spouses understand what you are going through. It can be very stressful with relocating, maintaining licenses and certifications, and finding employment. It can be frightening, especially when you depend on both incomes to financially make ends meet.
My quick advice is for you to call Military OneSource at 1-800-342-9647 or you can contact them online. They have spouse employment counselors who should help with your situation. Hang in there!

Jenson Button and his McLaren team-mate Lewis Hamilton dominated Friday afternoon's second free practice session for Sunday's 2011 Formula 1 Qantas Australian Grand Prix.
Button, who won the race for Brawn in 2009 and then for McLaren in 2010, will be chasing a hat-trick on Sunday while Hamilton, victorious here in 2008, will bid to end Button's streak.
Button's best lap of 1:25.854 was almost a second faster than the one that took Mark Webber's Red Bull to the top in the opening free practice session.
Two-times champion Fernando Alonso was third-quickest for Ferrari ahead of defending champion Sebastian Vettel and Webber in the two Red Bull cars, with Michael Schumacher sixth for Mercedes.
Brazilian Felipe Massa was seventh in the second Ferrari with Mexican new boy Sergio Perez, 21, marking his first full day at a Grand Prix for the Sauber team with a strong showing, winding up eighth.
That meant he was one place ahead of Brazilian Rubens Barrichello, 38, of Williams, a veteran of 307 races, while German Nico Rosberg made up the top 10 in the second Mercedes.
The new DRS (Drag Reduction System) was tested in race mode during the 90 minutes and also briefly disabled towards the end of a session that ended in light rain.
As the teams set about testing the durability of the new Pirelli tyres Button, one of the best preservers of tyres and an astute tactician, swept to the top with a lap in 1:26.706 after 35 minutes, the quickest lap of the weekend to that point, before Schumacher, on Pirelli's softer option rubber, took over.
The McLarens went clear again in the closing stages when Button went a tenth clear of Hamilton. Ominously the top five – last year's 'Big Five' title contenders – were seven-tenths clear of the chasing Schumacher.
For the ultra-methodical McLaren team, it was a successful test of the durability of a revised exhaust system, floor and front wing as they flexed their muscles for a 2011 title challenge.
For the struggling Hispania team, at the other end of pit lane, it was a very different story as they toiled to build their new untested cars in time to run.
Finally, after a race against the clock, Italian Vitantonio Liuzzi emerged to turn a single installation lap with two minutes remaining. "For us, to be honest, it is very difficult," said team-mate Indian Narain Karthikeyan. "And parts for the cars are still arriving from Europe."

WARNING: this article is obsoleted. Please refer to http://nginx.org/en/docs/ for the latest official documentation.
This module allows Nginx to interact with uWSGI processes and control what parameters are passed to the process. This page was mostly copied from the SCGI documentation, and may not be entirely accurate as a result.
Do not confuse the uwsgi protocol with the uWSGI server (that speaks the uwsgi protocol)
This module first appeared in nginx-0.8.40
location / { include uwsgi_params; uwsgi_pass unix:/var/run/example.com.sock; }
Caching example:
http { uwsgi_cache_path /path/to/cache levels=1:2 keys_zone=NAME:10m inactive=5m; server { location / { uwsgi_pass unix:/var/run/example.com.sock; uwsgi_cache NAME; uwsgi_cache_key $host$request_uri; uwsgi_cache_valid 200 302 1h; uwsgi_cache_valid 301 1d; uwsgi_cache_valid any 1m; uwsgi_cache_min_uses 1; uwsgi_cache_use_stale error timeout invalid_header http_500; } } }
The cache honors backend's Cache-Control, Expires, and etc. Vary handling is not implemented.
syntax: uwsgi_bind address
default: none
context: http, server, location
uwsgi_bind 192.168.1.1;
Binds each upstream connection to a local address before calling connect(). It may be useful if host has several interfaces/aliases and you want to pass outgoing connections from specific interface/address.
syntax: uwsgi_buffer_size the_size
default: uwsgi_buffer_size 4k/8k
context: http, server, location
This directive sets the buffersize, into which will be read the first part of the response, obtained from the uwsgi server.
In this part of response the small response-header is located, as a rule.
By default, the buffer size is equal to the size of one buffer in directive uwsgi_buffers, however it is possible to set it to less.
syntax: uwsgi_buffering on | off
default: uwsgi_buffering on
context: http, server, location
version: 1.1.5
variables: no
This directive controls response buffering of the response.
If buffering is activated, then nginx reads the response from the upstream server as fast as possible, saving it in the buffer as configured by directives uwsgi_buffer_size and uwsgi_buffers. If the response does not fit into memory, then parts of it will be written to disk.
If buffering is switched off, then the response is synchronously transferred to client immediately as it is received. nginx does not attempt to read the entire answer from the upstream server, the maximum size of data which nginx can accept from the server is set by directive uwsgi_buffer_size.
For Comet applications based on long-polling it is important to set uwsgi_buffering to off, otherwise the asynchronous response is buffered and the Comet does not work.
Buffering can be set on a per-request basis by setting the X-Accel-Buffering header in the response.
syntax: uwsgi_buffers the_number is_size
default: uwsgi_buffers 8 4k/8k
context: http, server, location
This directive sets the number and the size of buffers, into which will be read the answer, obtained from the uwsgi server. By default, the size of one buffer is equal to the size of page. Depending on platform this is either 4K, 8K or 16K.
syntax: uwsgi_busy_buffers_size size
default: uwsgi_busy_buffers_size ["#uwsgi_buffer_size"] * 2
context: http, server, location, if
syntax: uwsgi_cache zone|off
default: off
context: http, server, location
The directive specifies the area which actually is the share memory's name for caching. The same area can be used in several places.
syntax: uwsgi_cache_bypass variable1 variable2...
default: none
context: http, server, location
version: >= 0.8.46
Specifies in what cases a request will bypass a cached response and pass the request to upstream.
uwsgi_cache_bypass $cookie_nocache $arg_nocache$arg_comment; uwsgi_cache_bypass $http_pragma $http_authorization;
The expression is false if it is equal to the empty string or "0". For instance, in the above example, the request will always go through to the back-end if the cookie "nocache" is set in the request.
Note that the response from the back-end is still eligible for caching. Thus one way of refreshing an item in the cache is sending a request with a header you pick yourself, e.g. "My-Secret-Header: 1", then having a uwsgi_no_cache line like:
uwsgi_no_cache $http_my_secret_header;
syntax: uwsgi_cache_key line
default: none
context: http, server, location
The directive sets the key for caching, for example:
uwsgi_cache_key localhost:9000$request_uri;
syntax: uwsgi_cache_lock on|off
default: off
context: http, server, location
When enabled, only one request at a time will be allowed to populate a new cache element identified according to the uwsgi_cache_key directive by passing a request to a uWSGI server. Other requests of the same cache element will either wait for a response to appear in the cache, or the cache lock for this element to be released, up to the time set by the uwsgi_cache_lock_timeout directive. This directive appeared in version 1.1.12.
syntax: uwsgi_cache_lock time
default: 5s
context: http, server, location
Sets a timeout for fastcgi_cache_lock. This directive appeared in version 1.1.12.
syntax: uwsgi_cache_methods [GET HEAD POST]
default: uwsgi_cache_methods GET HEAD
context: http, server, location
GET/HEAD is syntax sugar, i.e. you can not disable GET/HEAD even if you set just
uwsgi_cache_methods POST;
syntax: uwsgi_cache_min_uses the_number
default: uwsgi_cache_min_uses 1
context: http, server, location
Directive specifies after how many requests to the same URL in will be cached.
syntax: uwsgi_cache_path path [levels=m:n] keys_zone=name:size [inactive=time] [max_size=size]
default: none
context: http
The clean_time parameter was removed in 0.7.45.
This directive specifies path to the cache storage and other cache parameters. All data is stored in the files. The cache key and the name of cache file are calculated as MD5 sum of the proxied URL.
Level parameter sets number and width of the names of subdirectories used to store caching files. For example, with the directive like:
uwsgi_cache_path /data/nginx/cache levels=1:2 keys_zone=one:10m;
the data will be stored in the following file:
Caching data is first written to the temporary file which is then moved to the final location in a cache directory. Starting from 0.8.9 it is possible to store temporary and cache files on different file systems, but it should be kept in mind that in such a case instead of cheap and atomic rename syscall a full file copy is performed. So it's better to use the same file system in both parameters of uwsgi_temp_path and
uwsgi_cache_path directives.
In addition, all active keys and information about data are kept in the shared memory zone, which name and size are specified by the options of the
key_zone parameter. In case this data haven't been accessed for the time, specified in the option of
inactive parameter, it is wiped out from the memory. By default inactive period is set to 10 minutes.
To maintain the maximum size of the cache, which is set by
max_size parameter, a special process cache manager periodically deletes old data from the cache.
syntax: uwsgi_cache_use_stale updating|error|timeout|invalid_header|http_500
default: uwsgi_cache_use_stale off
context: http, server, location
Determines whether or not Nginx will serve stale cached data in case of gateway event such as error, timeout etc.
syntax: uwsgi_cache_valid [http_return_code [...]] time
default: none
context: http, server, location
Directive sets caching period for the specified http return codes. For example:
uwsgi_cache_valid 200 302 10m; uwsgi_cache_valid 404 1m;
sets caching period of 10 minutes for return codes 200 and 302 and 1 minute for the 404 code.
In case only caching period is specified:
uwsgi_cache_valid 5m;
the default behavior is to cache only replies with the codes 200, 301 and 302.
It's also possible to cache all the replies by specifying code "any":
uwsgi_cache_valid 200 302 10m; uwsgi_cache_valid 301 1h; uwsgi_cache_valid any 1m;
syntax: uwsgi_connect_timeout time
default: uwsgi_connect_timeout 60
context: http, server, location
Directive sets timeout period for connection with uWSGI-server. It should be noted that this value can't exceed 75 seconds.
syntax: uwsgi_hide_header name
context: http, server, location
By default, Nginx does not pass "X-Accel-..." headers from the uWSGI process back to the client. This directive can be used to hide other headers as well.
If the "X-Accel-..." headers must be provided, then it is necessary to use directive uwsgi_pass_header to force them to be returned to the client.
syntax: uwsgi_ignore_client_abort on|off
default: uwsgi_ignore_client_abort off
context: http, server, location
This directive determines if current request to the uWSGI-server must be aborted in case the client aborts the request to the server.
syntax: uwsgi_ignore_headers name [name...]
context: http, server, location
This directive forbids processing of the named headers from the uWSGI-server reply. It is possible to specify headers like "X-Accel-Redirect", "X-Accel-Expires", "Expires" or "Cache-Control".
syntax: uwsgi_intercept_errors on|off
default: uwsgi_intercept_errors off
context: http, server, location
This directive determines whether or not to transfer 4xx and 5xx errors back to the client or to allow Nginx to answer with directive error_page.
Note: You need to explicitly define the error_page handler for this for it to be useful. As Igor says, "nginx does not intercept an error if there is no custom handler for it it does not show its default pages. This allows to intercept some errors, while passing others as are."
syntax: uwsgi_max_temp_file_size 0
default: ?
context: ?
This directive turns off uwsgi buffering according to the source code.
syntax: uwsgi_modifier1 value
default: 0
context: server, location
Set the first modifier for a uwsgi request (the default is a WSGI request)
syntax: uwsgi_modifier2 value
default: 0
context: server, location
Set the second modifier for a uwsgi request
syntax: uwsgi_next_upstream error|timeout|invalid_header|http_500|http_503|http_404|off
default: uwsgi_next_upstream error timeout
context: http, server, location
This directive defines in which cases request will be passed to the next server:
- error — an error occurred during connection to the server, passing request to it or reading server respond header;
- timeout — a timeout occurred during connection to the server, passing request to it or reading server respond header;
- invalid_header — server returned empty or invalid answer;
- http_500 — server returned 500 respond;
- http_503 — server returned 503 respond;
- http_404 — server returned 404 respond;
- updating — ?
- off — explicitly forbids passing request to the next server;
It should be clear that passing request to the next server is possible only if no data have been yet returned to the client. So, if the error or timeout occurred during the data transmission to the client it's too late to fix it.
syntax: uwsgi_no_cache variable [...]
default: none
context: http, server, location
Specifies in what cases the responses will not be stored, e.g.
uwsgi_no_cache $cookie_nocache $arg_nocache$arg_comment; uwsgi_no_cache $http_pragma $http_authorization;
The expression is false if it is equal to the empty string or "0". For instance, in the above example, the response will not be stored if the cookie "nocache" is set in the request.
syntax: uwsgi_param parameter value
default: none
context: http, server, location
Directive assigns the parameter, which will be transferred to the uWSGI-server.
It is possible to use strings, variables and their combination as values. Directives not set are inherited from the outer level. Directives set in current level clear any previously defined directives for the current level.
syntax: uwsgi_pass uwsgi-server
default: none
context: location, if in location
Directive assigns the port or socket on which the uWSGI-server is listening. Port can be indicated by itself or as an address and port, for example:
uwsgi_pass localhost:9000;
using a Unix domain socket:
uwsgi_pass unix:/tmp/uwsgi.socket;
You may also use an upstream block.
upstream backend { server 127.0.0.1:1234; server unix:/var/run/example.com.sock; } uwsgi_pass backend;
syntax: uwsgi_pass_header name
context: http, server, location
This directive explicitly allows to pass named headers to the client.
syntax: uwsgi_pass_request_body on|off
default: uwsgi_pass_request_body on
context: http, server, location
Defines whether or not the request body should be passed to the uwsgi. Should usually be left on.
syntax: uwsgi_pass_request_headers on|off
default: uwsgi_pass_request_headers on
context: http, server, location
Defines whether or not the request headers should be passed to the uwsgi. Should usually be left on.
syntax: uwsgi_read_timeout time
default: uwsgi_read_timeout 60
context: http, server, location
Directive sets the amount of time for upstream to wait for a uwsgi process to send response data. Change this directive if you have long running uwsgi processes that do not produce output until they are finished processing. If you are seeing an upstream timed out error in the error log, then increase this parameter to something more appropriate.
syntax: uwsgi_send_timeout time
default: uwsgi_send_timeout 60
context: http, server, location
Directive specifies the timeout when sending the request to uwsgi. The timeout is calculated between two write operations, not for the whole request. If no data has been written during this period then nginx closes the connection.
syntax: uwsgi_store on|off|path
default: uwsgi_store off
context: http, server, location
This directive sets the path in which upstream files are stored. The parameter "on" preserves files in accordance with path specified in directives alias or root. The parameter "off" forbids storing. Furthermore, the name of the path can be clearly assigned with the aid of the line with the variables:
uwsgi_store /data/www$original_uri;
The time of modification for the file will be set to the date of "Last-Modified" header in the response. To be able to safe files in this directory it is necessary that the path is under the directory with temporary files, given by directive uwsgi_temp_path for the data location.
This directive can be used for creating the local copies for dynamic output of the backend which is not very often changed, for example:
location /images/ { root /data/www; error_page 404 = /fetch$uri; } location /fetch { internal; uwsgi_pass backend; uwsgi_store on; uwsgi_store_access user:rw group:rw all:r; uwsgi_temp_path /data/temp; alias /data/www; }
To be clear uwsgi_store is not a cache, it's rather mirror on demand.
syntax: uwsgi_store_access users:permissions [users:permission ...]
default: uwsgi_store_access user:rw
context: http, server, location
This directive assigns the permissions for the created files and directories, for example:
uwsgi_store_access user:rw group:rw all:r;
If any rights for groups or all are assigned, then it is not necessary to assign rights for user:
uwsgi_store_access group:rw all:r;
syntax: uwsgi_string string
default: none
context: server, location
append a string to a uwsgi request
Example (for a uwsgi compatible server that support the eval modifier as uWSGI)
location / { uwsgi_pass unix:/var/run/example.com.sock; uwsgi_pass_request_headers off; uwsgi_pass_request_body off; uwsgi_string " import uwsgi uwsgi.start_response('200 OK', [('Content-type','text/plain')]) total = 30+22 uwsgi.send("30 + 22 = %d" % total) "; uwsgi_modifier1 22; uwsgi_modifier2 0; }
syntax: uwsgi_temp_file_write_size size

Smith earns SoCon Player of the Week honor
Monday, March 01, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (March 1, 2004) -The Southern Conference named Tim Smith (Newport News, Va.) of East Tennessee State as its men's basketball Player of the Week on Monday. Smith, a 5-9, 155-pound sophomore point guard 27.0 points, 6.5 rebounds and 6.5 assists in two games last week, helping the Bucs to a victory over Chattanooga (2/24) and a close loss at College of Charleston (2/28). Smith scored 27 points and handed out seven assists in an 84-72 win over the Mocs. He added 27 points, 10 rebounds and six assists in a 91-89 loss to the Cougars. For the week, Smith shot .511 from the floor (24 of 47) and also recorded four steals. "This is a real honor," Smith said. "I hadn't gotten one of these this year, and I've been working hard to improve my game. It's nice to see that work pay off. But it makes things easier when you have a great team around you, and we have some great players on this team." Smith, who earlier in the day was selected to the Coaches 2003-04 All-SoCon Team, was the most outstanding player at last year's SoCon Tournament and also took home freshman of the year honors a year ago. Also receiving consideration this week were Mindaugas Katelynas of Chattanooga who posted a pair of double-doubles last week; Elon's Montell Watson who scored 23 points in a triple overtime win over UNC Greensboro; Brendan Winters of Davidson who averaged 22.0 points and scored 30 in the regular season finale over Furman; the Citadel's Kevin Hammack who scored 15 points in leading the Bulldogs to a 68-65 win over Georgia Southern; Thomas Mobley of College of Charleston who averaged 18.5 points per game in a pair of contests last week; Jay Joseph of UNC Greensboro who became the school's all-time leading scorer; and Sam Daniels of Wofford who hit a career-high six 3-pointers against Chattanooga.

Gaucher disease is a rare genetic disorder in which a person lacks an enzyme called glucocerebrosidase.
Glucocerebrosidase deficiency; Glucosylceramidase deficiency
Gaucher disease affects an estimated 1 in 50,000 to 1 in 100,000 people in the general population. Persons of Eastern and Central European (Ashkenazi) Jewish heritage are more likely to get this disease.
It is an autosomal recessive disease. This means that the mother and father must both pass one abnormal copy of the gene to the child in order for the child to develop the disease. A parent who silently carries an abnormal copy of the gene is called a carrier.
The lack of the glucocerebrosidase enzyme causes harmful substances to build up in the liver, spleen, bones, and bone marrow. The substances prevent cells and organs from working properly.
There are three main subtypes of Gaucher disease:
Symptoms vary, but may include:
The doctor or nurse will examine you. This may show signs of liver and spleen swelling, bone changes, lung disease, eye movement problems, heart problems, or hearing loss.
The following tests may be done:
Enzyme replacement therapy is available. A bone marrow transplant may be needed in severe cases.
For more information contact:
How well a person does depends on the subtype of the disease. The infantile form of Gaucher disease may lead to early death. Most affected children die before age 5.
Adults with the type 1 form of the disease can expect normal life expectancy with enzyme replacement therapy.
Genetic counseling is recommended for prospective parents with a family history of Gaucher disease. Testing can determine if parents carry the gene that could pass on the Gaucher disease. A prenatal test can also tell if a baby in the womb has Gaucher syndrome.

is a sudden change in behavior. It is caused by sudden, abnormal, and excessive electrical activity in the brain. A neonatal seizure occurs in newborn babies.
Seizures may be severe or mild. They may cause physical changes like convulsions. It may affect only part of the body or the entire body. A short seizure itself does not cause serious health conditions. Prolonged seizures can lead to permanent damage. The damage is due to decreased oxygen and excessive brain cell activity.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Sometimes seizures occur for unknown reasons.
Your doctor will ask about your child's symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Tests may be done to look for the cause of the seizure.
Treatment for the seizures depends on the cause of the seizures. Some seizures will not require treatment. If the seizure is caused by an underlying condition your child's doctor will create a plan to treat that condition. Resolving the underlying condition will likely stop the seizures.
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for your child. You may also be referred to a pediatric neurologist.
Anticonvulsant medication can help to prevent seizures. The medication that is used will depend on the type of seizure. These medications do have some side effects. As a result, they are often only used for severe or frequent seizures.
Medications are not usually prescribed for
febrile seizures
. These seizures are associated with a rapid increase in temperature due to a fever. Children will outgrow these seizures by about 5 years of age. They are rarely associated with long term problems so anticonvulsant medication is rarely recommended.
Some severe seizures may be treated with brain surgery. This may occur in some children with epilepsy. During this type of surgery certain nerve fibers may be separate or a section of the brain may be removed. This surgery may help to reduce or eliminate seizures. Surgery is not done very often.
If your newborn is diagnosed with neonatal seizures, follow your doctor's
Medicine, if recommended, can usually prevent seizures. It is important to take anticonvulsant medication as needed.
Febrile seizures are may be the first sign of a fever. This can make it difficult to prevent. About 30% of children that have had a febrile seizure will have another seizure when they have a fever. Your doctor may advise that you give your child medicine to keep fever down whenever he/she gets sick.
Seizures can still happen despite treatment. Take the
safety steps
listed above if you notice your child's behavior changing.

Sandusky police Chief Jim Lang said his department has been receiving (click here) emails from people angry about last week's fatal shooting of a dog on Washington Court.
Officer Brad Wilson shot the dog after responding to a complaint about a dog running loose in the area. Police said the dog chased after the mailman and two residents (read here). The incident was recorded by a camera in Wilson's police cruiser (view here).
The dog's owner, Donna Hansen, has launched a grassroots movement to protest the shooting. Hansen appeared in Sandusky Municipal Court Wednesday, where she pleaded not guilty to citations for dog at large and unlicensed dog. Afterward, she appeared on Between the Lines Live, the Register's online news program (view here).

After a tiring first period in which it stopped two 5-on-3 power plays, the Landon School ice hockey team regrouped in the third period to beat Bullis, 4-2, for its third consecutive Interstate Athletic Conference championship.
Sam Kroll made 29 saves for the Bears, Graham Shue scored two goals, including one on an empty net, and Colton Rupp scored the game-winning goal with 5 minutes, 8 seconds left in the third period.
"It feels awesome," Kroll said. "When we started this season off, me, Graham and {William] Buck[ingham], we sat down with the team and we said that we have two goals: to win the IAC and the MAPHL again. That's the only thing we're used to. That's the only thing we'll accept. So to do it — we faced a little bit of adversity during the year and we tied Bullis — it's sweet man. It's awesome."
Landon was in control early, maintaining possession in its zone for the first two minutes of play when freshman Brian Jordan scored the first goal.
Less than a minute later, Landon took its first penalty and soon after took another, putting them two men down for 1:27. Bullis took five shots, all five which were blocked by Kroll. With 5:39 left in the period, the Bears were again down two men and, again, killed the penalties.
"Those penalties put us in the hole early," Landon coach Chan Gammill said. "We had to spend some legs to kill off those penalties, which hurt us. We couldn't keep our rhythm of going four lines deep. And I do, I really think that hurt us through the second period. Having that intermission between two and three gave us a chance to get our legs back and to be able to roll lines in the beginning of the third period. It was awesome."
Kroll allowed both of Bullis' goals in the first period when he was under the most pressure. With 1:10 left in the game, Kroll turned away a potential tying shot by Josh Foreman (goal). Foreman skated in on a breakaway and Kroll slid to his right to make a pad save.
"Sam's honestly been the anchor of our team since day one," said Shue, the Bears' captain. "When he's on, we're on. The whole team's on. Without him we'd be a different team. He really, truly is the anchor of our team and we ride on his momentum."
After Shue tied the game in the second period, the Bears went into the break knowing they needed to make changes. The coaches didn't say anything, leaving it to the players.
The Bears settled down and played more like a team in the third period, most notably on their power play. Through two periods, the Bears tried to make cross-ice passes with a man up. But Bullis stayed tight in its zone and rarely allowed those passes to connect.
In the third period, the Bears started ripping shots at the net from the blue line and it worked. During a power play late, John Barton slammed a shot from high in the slot. It barreled into a group of defenders and came out to Rupp, who flipped it past Bullis goalie David Harrison (21 saves), who was drawn out for the initial shot.
"We realized it wasn't working," Barton said. "We realized our best shot was to get it on goal and get a dirty goal with the rebound. So we did it and it worked."
Added Rupp: "I was just in the right place at the right time for the rebound. I got it, put it five hole as quick as I could and then after that it was crazy."
This isn't the end of the road for the Bears. They begin their quest for a third-straight Mid-Atlantic Prep Hockey League title on Tuesday when they face Georgetown Prep, which the Bears beat, 7-2, in the IAC playoffs.
"We're happy with this win. We're going to celebrate a little bit this weekend," Shue said. "But, honestly, we have to look forward to next week because that's the big championship we want to win and that's been our number one goal all season."

Rated 1 out of 5�by Mikey22 CAUTION: DO NOT BUY THIS TREADMILL This is the absolute worst purchase I have made in my entire life. In the first month after purchasing this awful machine, the console crashed while trying to update the firmware and would not come back up. After weeks of trying to get it to work myself, I finally called the manufacturer's warranty service company ICON SERVICE (which always takes an hour or more because they give you the runaround as they pretend to know how treadmills work). They sent me a new console which came about 10 days later and a tech which came a week after that. He replaced the console and we were up and running... just not at a consistent speed. That's right, this treadmill's motor will not stay at any given speed, at least that's the case for the one I ended up with. I'll be walking fast with speed set to 4.0 and suddenly it will slow down for about a minute to what feels like a 1.0, although the console still reads 4.0. Then it will speed up again and go way past 4.0 to the point where I have to go into a full run to keep up. All the while, the console still reads 4.0. And when I set it to 6.0 because I want to run, sometimes it slows down to a walking pace but worse, it will often speed up to a pace where I can barely keep up, which is just dangerous. The only way I have been able to workout on this thing is to ride the speed levels the entire time which is no way to workout. But here's the bigger problem: In 8 months, the service company, ICON SERVICE, has replaced the console, the controller, the motor, the controller again, added an electricity filter, and adjusted the belt and this speed fluctuation problem has remained. Now they are saying that a little lube on the belt and a new "reed switch" should do the trick. For some odd reason, I don't believe them. The one thing they won't replace: the defective treadmill itself. As bad as this treadmill is, the warranty service provided by ICON SERVICE is even worse. Buyers, there are a lot of choices in treadmills. Don't go anywhere near this brand. July 18, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5�by Megan Terrible Experience I will never buy an Epic product again. The treadmill was easy enough to assemble; however, it did not come with an activation code for iFit. (BTW ? this is only free for one year and then there is an $89/year charge.) The help line is anything but helpful. I was on hold for 20 minutes before I hung up and called again only to be told that that department was closed. It took three more phone calls over three days to get the activation code. They closed earlier than stated on their hours of operation However, once I activated it, the actual treadmill itself did not work at all ? nothing, the belt, the incline, the fan, the volume ? no movement . More phone calls. Finally got someone who said she would send a new console. A week and a half later the part arrives. Another half a week for the technician to install it. Five minutes after he left, it got stuck and neither the speed nor the incline could be changed. I had to unplug it to turn the thing off. I called back twice and still have not heard back from the technician and it has been over a week since my last phone call. I disassembled it and brought it back to Dick's where I was informed that they normally do not take treadmills back. Thankfully they did take it back. October 15, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5�by Radi27 Solid Treadmill, with a few areas for improvement First, I travel for work 150+ nights a year, and I run on a lot of different treadmills. This unit replaced a NordicTrack I bought about 10 years ago. Overall, I am very impressed with the Epic A35t. First, it offers really good cushioning. It also is very sturdy feeling and inclines/declines/speeds up/down in a very smooth manner. From a running standpoint, it does a great job, and my knees are very pleased. While I was annoyed that it only came with a 1 year membership to Ifit, I actually kind of like the service. I have been able to create a couple goals/workouts, and the setup was extremely easy. I haven't quite mastered how to update the workouts in my queue, but it seems pretty easy. Now, for the less than perfect. First, the unit had a minor squeak for the first few miles. It seems to have gone away, but if it comes back, I will be calling Epic. I also had a few instances where it increased the speed just a little bit on its own--not drastic, but not sure why it did it. I also think the screen should be bigger, but I guess if it was no one would buy the step up model. The touchscreen can be a little funky too, but pretty good. Overall, and especially for the price, I would definitely recommend this brand and model. The only other brand I considered was NordicTrack, and to get something that was reasonably better, it would have been an additional 40%. If you can get this on sale (1699 seems way high), then I would go for it. We grabbed it for right around 1,350--great price point for a great unit. Oh, and the setup/delivery was free----they did an amazingly good job. In and out of the house in 30 minutes. January 26, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5�by disapointed 36 Don't Buy This Machine Right out of the box this machine has had problems. I had it delivered and set up for me and all that went well. However the first time I used it the incline didn't work right. It would go up, but when putting it back to 0 it would go up more. It took some fiddling with to get it back to 0. I've calibrated it several times and still nothing. That's not the worse part. I was just walking at speed 4 and it jump to 11. I reset it to 4 and a little later it jumped to 8. The help line said they are going to send me an updated firmware to install manually because sometimes doing it over the wifi causes glitches. Really? that's your answer? November 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Idaho Potato Excellent. Just ask the right questions I knew what to expect with this because I asked a LOT of questions. I knew that I would be required to get a subscription to I FIT, because I asked. I asked ahead of time about shipping. The people at the store were very honest about the poor shipping and delivery they had in the past. However, they told me a new person was providing the delivery, would bring it to my house (50 miles away from the store) and would set it up. The delivery was set up the afternoon of my purchase. The delivery came as scheduled, the deliverer put it in the basement, set it up, and showed us the basics. Excellent experience and excellent equipment. Just do your homework and be thorough.

Rated 4 out of 5�by Rosentraum Great treadmill but patience required First of all, let me say I absolutely love my new treadmill. I purchased the EPIC A35 mainly for the Ifit Live feature. I am not an athletic person and the concept of an organized approach to fitness with progressive work outs was exactly what I was looking for. I did a lot of research amongst the various brands (all made by the same manufacturer as this one) and chose this one because I was able to try it out in the store. The staff at my local Dick's Sporting Goods was incredibly helpful and answered my numerous questions. I paid for the in-home delivery service because the item is extremely heavy and I wanted to be sure that there were no assembly issues. The delivery team was prompt, professional and courteous and the treadmill was together within a half an hour. There was an issue with two precut covers not fitting over the base of the treadmill, but it did not prevent me from using the treadmill. The team ordered replacements which arrived within a week. They will be returning to place these where they belong. I also purchased the extended warranty and HIGHLY recommend this after preivously having had a defective treadmill from another retailer. As for the Ifit Live, I absolute love this feature. The workouts I have tried are great and I love knowing that I am progressing with every work out. Please note though, that it does require patience. If you have patience and are willing to work through the little glitches, the benefits of using it are truly there. For starters, the touch screen is not as easy to use as tablet. I only notice this with logging in and out of Ifit. Otherwise, it is fine. There are times when I have to depress the letter keys to log in very firmly, other times the slightest touch works. Sometimes even when I am on the letter screen, it will type in a number. In order to type in the password, I always have to depress both thumbs simultaneously and very firmly on each end of the password field so that I can begin typing in the password. So far, the most attempts it has taken is four. In order to minimize login frustration, choose a short login and a short password if you can. I have followed the instructions of always shutting the treadmill off and unplugging the treadmill in order to avoid any potential issues from a power surge. At the end of each work out, I always double check to make sure that I am at zero incline before powering off and unplugging. Powering up does take a few minutes, so I usually plug it in and turn it on and then change into my work out clothes so that everything is ready to go once I am ready. When dowloading the workouts from Ifit, I recommend not downloading more than you can do because if you don't do a work out that is in the queque, it essentially disappears and you end up "advancing" without having done the preceding work out. This is particularly important with the progressive workouts, like the Jillian Michaels or 30/60 day ones where multiple workouts are download all at once into the queque. For example, if you download Jillian Michaels Power Walking and Jillian Michaels Get fit, each day you will need to do two workouts . If you don't do one of the workouts and do not advance it to the next day before the day you were supposed to do the workout is over, it will not be in your queque the next day. I recommend logging in to your Ifit account on your laptop daily for all of this, since it's so much easierto move the workouts forward on this than trying to do it from the treadmill. All in all I am very happy with my purchasea and am looking forward to using my treadmill for years to come. The little glitches and nuances with Ifit are well worth it to me in the long run. I have the extended warranty and can always obtain service, if necessary. September 17, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by kaibab4 all good except for expansive use of android screen and ifit, etc. the machine is great. I suppose that I could have set it up myself but did pay $65 extra for that too and now am glad I did as it is set up completely correct. machine works quietly and flawlessly. my 10th grader uses it for running. I use it from speed walking/cardio related, etc. the capacity of the android screen is quite limited. though it quickly goes to the android apps screen via google--it does not download or manage any android (or other) apps whatsoever. :( Virtual keyboard is small and hard also for my large fingers to consistently hit all the right keys on small lower screen keyboard. it does keep the memory to log itself in to wifi if the machine is completely shut off; but, anytime you want to go on ifit, you must reenter your password/username to again get back into your web based ifit account--doesn't keep it in memory. I agree with another reviewer here that ifit is something to be dealt with---limited options in the first year will even cost you if you want to be a member into the second, etc. there are two samples upfront that aren't too exciting, but, thereafter has to be purchased. also, you can invent your own walks/runs too; but, I found that once I determined path and direction via the google realted screen, ifit also wanted to charge me for what I had created. screen use for basic treadmill functions, however, works very very well.... I use my tablet and put it in the book holder for the rest. also doesn't run other items such as netflix or intune (web based radio,etc.# as I had hoped; but, I use my tablet and put it on the book holder instead. it has preprogrammed to go quick access to msnbc, cnn and other similar sites; but, it is hard to stay attentive as screen size is an issue for my eyes. chest strap needed a new battery from day one. also is compatible with my polar strap that came with my watch. nice. speakers for sound aren't the best but are nice in that they do add amplification to my use of either my phone or tablet as I choose, and work for what I use it for here...... built in fan is too low for my height. I still use it as well as my own table top fan on pedestal drawer piece we have to get it up high enough to blow....... This machine is sound, durable, and compatible to those that I have been used to using at the fitness center until we started with this now at home....... Generally, very pleased with my purchase. I did also buy the four year warranty plan ----just in case....#but two months into this, I haven't used it so far...love the larger motor though....... :) January 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Truckin Easy to use & quiet I like that this treadmill is so easy to use. Yes, it has all the more advanced features, such as pre-set programs and workouts, but I really prefer to make up my workout routine as I go. The layout of the display board allows me to do that with a simple touch. No getting off the machine, no digging out the manual, etc. I just start it up and gradually increase the speed to what I'm comfortable with. As I warm up and get into my routine, I just reach out and up my incline or speed as I see fit. All the information I want is right there in easy to read format. Whether its calories burned, distance, time, or laps; its easy to see. Nothing complicated about it. Its also quiet. This is important for two reasons. One, I live in an upstairs apartment, and my downstairs neighbor says he can't hear a thing. And two, I don't want the noise of the treadmill to compete with any music I might be listening to. I'd definitely recommend this treadmill to anyone who was interested in buying one. June 24, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5�by redlegs2370 Ifit Live a Joke! The treadmill is great for walking or running. I was disappointed in Ifit Live. Everytime I connect to wifi I get disconnected. I'm training for a marathon and thought it would be neat to use Ifit live but can't. Epic I would cancel your contract with Ifit live and quit marketing it. It is a joke! Don't buy this treadmill if you are wanting to use Ifit live. December 8, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5�by runnerr Worst Treadmill Ever I purchased this treadmlll last month to replace a treadmill we had for 15 years wihch finally just broke. I am an avid runner and racer, and I like to have the option of running in my basement when the weather is bad, especially in winter. At first we were impressed with the set up and delivery since they were prompt and efficient, however, from my first run until today, the treadmill squeaks relentlessly. I spoke with EPIC twice about this. The first time they said it needed to be run on more to get the internal lubrication of the machine going; this would take at least a week. They also said they would send out a lube kit so I could use it to get things less squeaky in the meantime. Lube kit did not work, nor did running on it more. After another phone call, they said they would send out parts and set up for a technician to come to the house after we received the parts. It has been over a week and no parts. This morming, the machine said it needed to do an update and now has been stuck in "Initializing Update" mode for over 2 hours. Even if I unplug the machine, it still has this when I plug it back in. This whole thing has been frustrating to say the least and not worth the money or hassle. March 8, 2013

Camp starts at 9:00 but you can drop off as early as 8:45! Orientation will be on Monday at 9:00am, and this is an opportunity for us to get to know the campers and for the campers to learn camp rules and expectations and meet their counselors. Throughout the camp they will be taught the skills of putting, chipping, bunker shots,
driving and midrange game. We will take them into our driving range where they will be able to fine tune their swings. We believe the best way for young golfers to learn is by allowing them to play on a real golf course, as opposed to just a driving range. At the same time we can also teach them golf etiquette which is very
important to use on a golf course. Hot Lunch is served daily for all campers and snacks will be provided at aftercare. Bring your own equipment or rent clubs at Emerald Hills Golf Course.
Any Questions please call or email Emerald Hills Golf Course at 650.368.7820 or email@example.com

Recipe by Debbie Rowe
"A light fluffy yeast roll that melts in your mouth."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale

Watch video tips and tricks
4 1/2 teaspoons
active dry yeast
2 cups
warm water
1/2 cup
white sugar
2 teaspoons
1/4 cup
6 1/2 cups
all-purpose flour
This is a recipe that I have found pretty hard to mess up! I alternate this recipe with another wheat dinner roll recipe (that needs to be kneaded :), and this one is perfect for those days that you want fresh yeast rolls, but don't have time to let them rise before baking. When you let them rise in the fridge overnight, just use a lint free, dampened towel that will prevent air from coming in. These turn out perfectly browned when you watch the oven closely. They get brown fast so around 8 minutes, be watching for the perfect shade of golden-brown.
Thanks for a great recipe and a staple at our house!!
Definately not the best bread I have ever made,and I have been making bread for years. I only tried this one since the dough can be refridgerated overnight. I follwed the recipe to the T even using a brand new container of Fleishmans yeast, and it came out a tad on the dry side, and didn't rise all that well, but it did have a pretty good taste. I think that rising on the countertop is the only real way to make bread by hand without worry that it is going to dry out, which is what happened to me. I think I will give this recipe 1 more shot, and keep the dough outta the fridge.

Yummy rolls just as the recipe stands.
I made a few substitutions - milk for the water, butter for the shortening and brush them with butter before baking. They melt in your mouth!
I made these rolls in my Kitchenaid mixer. Mixed with regular beater and then used the dough hook and mixed on low for about 2 minutes. Very tasty.
The most delicious, melt-in-your-mouth rolls we have ever tasted!
being put on the spot to come up with a bread product for a family get together, I found this recipe and had it in the fridge ready to go before going to bed. Tasted great, and everyone loved it!! Have already been asked for the recipe by the family.
This is the EXACT recipe my mother has used for rolls over many years. The whole family and new-comers to the extended family rave about them! She always bakes them in round pie pans and bakes a bundle so she can give away some in large zip lock bags. Fantastic for sopping up gravy!
These turned out really great! I made the dough Saturday night and it was quick and easy. Then I made half the batch on Sunday afternoon, put the rest of the dough back in the fridge. Monday night we had fresh hot rolls with the remaining half of dough. They tasted great! I made mine into knots by rolling into 8 in. strips and tying into a loose knot. They turned out soft and yummy!

I am thinking to start GUI programming and I am thinking that maybe Free pascal + Lazarus
might be a decent choice since both are free and open source.
I normall use Python for my needs but gui stuff is tedius with Python. Since I am a hobbiest I do not want to invest great
deal of time to do some decent looking GUIs. I am not comparing both languages at all , I just have different needs sometimes.
I use TKinter here and there for small needs and seems to be ok for my little needs.
What are your suggstions, ideas about Pascal in general and about GI programming?

A legend is ready to conquer the future. The HEAD Prestige, the world's most famous tournament racquet which has won gold medals and Grand Slam titles in the hands of champions like Gustavo Kuerten, Marat Safin, and Goran Ivanisevic, now comes with the latest innovation in material development: Graphene. This optimum symbiosis of precision and power makes the new HEAD Graphene Prestige racquet line the racquet to beat.
The innovative Graphene material is a true game changer: for the first time, it allows for optimal weight distribution and puts the weight where it is needed most. On the court this means that the racquet is easier to handle while letting players swing with more power at the same time. And when the line between 'outstanding' and 'out' is as thin as in a high-pressured match, precision and power is a perfect combination and must have in your hands.
The new HEAD Graphene Prestige line, including the revolutionary HEAD Graphene Prestige REV Pro, does not only have an entirely new technology to show for. It also comes along in an unexpected new look. The well-known red color has grown into a flashy red paint. Thanks to the bold combination of matt and glossy paint finish, the racquets have a modern, asymmetric look to them, which is sure to turn heads on every court.
The new Prestige Graphene Series is globally available at selected retailers from January onwards. For more information please also visit head.com/tennis.

Temporary ice hotels materialize each winter in frigid northern towns from Russia to Canada. As temperatures rise in the spring the structures melt back into the earth. Now Dubai is poised to get its first year-round ice lodge, Blue Crystal. And considering the amount of energy needed to keep a man made iceberg under 32 degrees in scorching summers on the Persian Gulf, it's almost amusing to hear Blue Crystal touted as sustainable.
A growing trend in Dubai architecture seems to be the creation of not only the utmost in luxury, but of the impossible, improbable, and downright outrageous. Dubai's arid desert climate doesn't easily lend it to ice sculptures–especially not ones with 6 stories of luxury entertainment including an underwater lounge and ballroom. The German design duo Frank and Sven Sauer claim that Blue Crystal will harness the world's natural energy sources, keeping it self-sufficient. It will supposedly be powered by solar cells embedded in the icy facade and employ an 'energy recycling system.'
So far it isn't clear how much energy the structure will be able to produce and how that will be distributed amongst lounges, cafes and the most massive task of keep the ice frozen. Even if it does manage to stay off the grid I'm not convinced that a refrigerated iceberg in the middle of the desert counts as sustainable architecture.

I LIKE IT!! i hope i can stay in it one day…awesome design! and a great way to cool off in the hot desert sun! <3<3!
July 22, 2009 at 12:16 pm
This certainly is outrageous. Powering this will fossil fuel however, would be quite a stunt that hopefully many people would not put up with. If they do manage to pull this off, then lets hope other luxury hotels take a hint (not on the ice sculpture part).

Gallery: SOLAR DECATHLON 2007: Universidad Politécnica de Madrid
One thing that you'll immediately notice while walking around the solar decathlon event in Washington is how pretty much every house features a sloped roof of some sort. Some, tend to feature it less than others, by making it part of the buildings volume, or by building the roof out of lighter materials, thus disguising that throughout the building. On the other hand, you get entries like the one from the students at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, where the students decided to make their roof a striking element in their design, and thus turning their entry into one of the most original houses in this years solar decathlon.
It is not the only thing that they are proud of. "The points of view from so many countries brought out the best in everyone and inspired everyone to work harder," says Maria Perez, an architecture student from the university and one of the participants in the contest. Indeed, this years entry from this University might be remembered for being one of the most diverse in the competition, with participants from countries as diverse as Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Puerto Rico, and Venezuela, as well as the Spanish participants.
So what makes Madrid's entry interesting in this year's tight Solar Decthlon competition? The colorful Madrid house is essentially a boxed residence, configured to have its openable elements face south in order to get good solar access. The roof is covered in photovoltaic solar panels which will provide electricity to do all of the required activities that the competition entails (remember, not only does the house have to obtain its energy from the sun, they must also provide electricity for other activities).
But, after all, the solar decathlon is not only about getting energy from the sun, it is also about finding ways to conserve and reduce the energy required by the residence. To do this, the team has created a house with a double envelope to allow for proper insulation, solid state lighting (LED lights), Phase-changing gels in the foundation for thermal control, Electrochromic windows, which darken or light up as necessary, environmentally friendly materials, and a stunning living wall on the outside of the building which provides insulation (as well as a nice bit of greenery).
"Our objectives are to demonstrate innovation in energy efficiency that is applicable to single- and multi-family homes, develop a prototype for commercial manufacturing, and advance the social conscience on sustainability and the environment," says Professor Sergio Vega. And they intend to! As part of the teams social mission, they plan on taking their residence on the road to explain to people what the benefits of Solar power and environmentally friendly construction are.
3rd Place in Architecture Competition!
The Decathlon has just begun, but already, Madrid is turning heads and catching the judges attention, as it took 3rd prize in the architecture competition yesterday (Germany took first prize). Congratulations Madrid!

i agree, fantastic use of sunlight – top notch!
October 22, 2007 at 10:23 am
This years competition was by far my favorite and this was probably my favorite entry. It just felt more finished and like a HOME, whereas the others seemed more like really ambitious housing experiments. I loved the way light came cascading over the back wall and softly flooded the interior.

I am fond of the renderings of the prototype. Which 3-D program did you use?
October 18, 2007 at 10:17 am
The other amazing thing about all these houses is, according to the rules, they must generate enough electricity from the sun not only to heat the house and the water and run the appliances, but also to power an electric car as well.
Saturday's the last day to see them.
October 18, 2007 at 8:29 am
The concept of the living wall is a great one. An excellent example of one done to perfection is the one on the Quai Branly Museum in Paris. It is a piece of art.
October 17, 2007 at 8:47 pm
This home was by far my favorite. I was able to walk through a handful and this one was quite stunning. I'd recommend walking through any of the homes, but this is a must see.
October 17, 2007 at 1:04 pm
Beautiful prefab design, kŷdos!

Banner Night
A Panoramic View in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania -
September 7, 2006
Final Score: Steelers 28 - Dolphins 17
The Rob Arra Collection
The title defense begins! After a glorious playoff run
that saw the wildcard Steelers win four straight road playoff games to
earn the Super Bowl Championship, Pittsburgh's heroes finally returned
home to play. Prior to this opening night game, the banner was raised,
the players were honored, and the fans gave their salute to a legendary
crew of miracle workers. Then, the game began, and as the Steelers readied
to launch a first-and-10 from the 38 yard line...SNAP! The moment is preserved
for all-time, and is now available for your wall!
This bold, beautiful after-dark look at the stadium features
third-quarter action of a great comeback, as the Steelers picked up right
where they left off in February, and won again. As you pan across the image,
you feel like you are actually there, on that glorious late-summer full-moon
night, watching with enthusiasm along with thousands of your fellow yellow-and-black
fanatics. From the lens of legendary stadium photographer Rob Arra, you
get a unique corner perspective of Heinz, and all the details are in perfect
focus and vibrant color. Whether you were there that night, are a lover
of all things Steelers, or are simply an admirer of football history and
great stadiums, this brilliant print is for you. A stunning piece for a
nice frame and a prominent place on the wall of any fan, and a great collector's
item for years to come!
