PEORIA - Gerald E. "Jerry" Velpel, 70, of Peoria passed away and went to live with his Lord at 5:50 p.m. on Saturday, July 21, 2012, at Kindred Specialty Hospital.
He was born on Aug. 17, 1941, to Frank A. and Rosemary E. (Weisbruch) Velpel. He married Joyce E. (Welton) Velpel on Aug. 5, 1972, in Peoria. She survives.
Also surviving are two stepsons, Mark (Claudia) Wilson of Pekin and Greg (Caron) Wilson of Washington; one brother, Richard (Rose Mary) Velpel of Peoria; three sisters-in-law, Sharon (Clark) Leconte of Peoria, Shirlee (Richard) Firebaugh of Peoria and Joan Welton of Morton; four grandchildren, Angela, Crystal, Jordan and Geneava; and several nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his in-laws, Paul and Gertrude Welton; his brother-in-law, Jerry Welton; and sister-in-law, Susan Schielein.
Jerry graduated from Peoria High in 1959 and attended Bradley University.
He worked in gas engineering for Ameren/CILCO for almost 40 years before retiring.
He and Joyce enjoyed spending time with their children and grandchildren and enthusiastically supporting them in all of their activities. They also loved traveling, spending winters in Florida with their many friends for several years. Jerry was an avid sports fan and especially enjoyed watching and attending games of the St. Louis Cardinals baseball and Bradley Braves basketball teams.
For the last nine years, he also worked for the Minnesota Twins baseball spring training camp while in Florida.
Jerry was a devoted and loving husband, father and friend who lived life with enthusiasm, humor and compassion. He will be dearly missed by many, particularly his family and close friends.
We would like to thank the entire medical staff of Kindred Specialty Hospital in Peoria for their loving care and support of Jerry and our entire family during this difficult time. They are truly angels.
Visitation will be on Thursday, July 26, 2012, from 4 to 7 p.m. at Davison-Fulton Woolsey-Wilton Funeral Home at 2408 W. Willow Knolls Road in Peoria, with services to follow. Cremation rites will be accorded, with a private burial at a future date.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to either the Children's Hospital of Illinois or St. Jude Midwest Affiliate.

Mohali, Jan 24: Team India skipper MS Dhoni felt middle-order batsman Suresh Raina should be promoted up the order following his consistent performance in the last couple of matches.
MS Dhoni talking to reporters during the post match conference, said that Raina has been performing consistently as he has 194 runs off 4 matches at an average of 97 with a highest score of 89 in the fourth ODI against England at Mohali.
"This kind of innings has a lot of value because we have been grooming him like this. At 5, 6, 7, depending on scenarios, you hope that players at those positions have the talent to finish off games. It's not necessary that only one individual must finish the match each time. It's important that those who bat at 5, 6 and 7 make it a habit to win the game," said the captain.
Dhoni having experienced the pressure coming in at No 7, said it was difficult to score more runs when a batsman comes in at No 5 or No 6 as they have to play sensibly to guide the team safe. Since Raina has been doing it consistently, he could be promoted up the order.
"He has learnt it but at the same time, he has to curb his instincts. He is a naturally aggressive player, he loves to play his strokes but he has to curb it for the interest of the team. It will be good if we can give him some chances to bat slightly up the order. At 5, 6 and 7, you don't get much opportunity. The max you get generally is 60 or 70 and if you don't get runs, it's 10 or 15. We will see but definitely we have to give him a bit of chance up the order," Dhoni said after the team's five-wicket win over England at Mohali on Wednesday.

Hope Pregnancy Center Director Brenda Titus served as guest speaker during the April 25 Noon Exchange Club of Copperas Cove Meeting. Titus thanked the club and said it was a "privilege to partner and do things together to improve our community." She listed the resources the center offers, which include pre-pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, parenting classes, maternity clothes and a baby gift once the baby is born.
"Parents can come once a month to get help with diapers and formula for twelve months," Titus said
She extended an invitation to club members to "get a better impression of what the center is like" and shared the need for more men to become mentors which requires completing the training program.
"We are still trying to recruit volunteers," she said. "The men are a vital part of the pregnancy equation." Following the presentation, Dr. Parker Bogue, board member, had a list of all the items needed to fulfill requests at the center and the club was encouraged to help.
Hope Pregnancy Center is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Wednesday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 6 to 7 p.m. Thursday and 9 a.m. to noon Friday.
The Noon Exchange Club's Young Citizens Award will recognize select students from junior high schools this month. Students selected for their outstanding efforts will be given certificates from the club during the schools' regular end-of-the-year award ceremonies. Prior to the ceremonies, Exchange Club members will pass out small flags to all students in attendance as part of the National Club's "Give a Kid a Flag to Wave" campaign.
The club recently received the National Exchange's "Proud Sponsor of a New Club" patch for chartering Copperas Cove High School's Excel Club. The patch will be place on the Noon Exchange Club banner.
The "No Bidding Auction" led by Vice President of Fund Raising Inez Faison brought in $264 for Relay for Life. This amount along with the $2,500 already raised brought the club's final donation to Relay for Life to $2,764.

Litcrit, this is YOUR thread! We'll ask questions for you to answer and you can add in anything else you'd like to share about yourself, your pregnancy, and your family. Anything at all!
Other June mamas, ask any question you like, it's all fair game. Of course, our spotlight mama can decline to answer anything that makes her uncomfortable
No questions make me uncomfortable, seriously
These first few are from our intro thread, so we can all remember who you are!
EDD: June 5 (what I think), or 7 (what the 1st u/s showed); or May 31 (according to LMP)
Name: Danica
Age: I turned 28 yesterday
Location: Belgrade, Serbia, ex Serbia and Montenegro, ex Yugoslavia, the Balkans South East Europe...
Family (partner, other children, and/or furbabies): Husband, SAHD during the day, musician by night; 3 yo DD
Baby's Gender (hopes or guesses): I both hope for and sort of feel it's a boy, maybe because I was told with DD I was having a boy, so I never got over the idea of a boy that's supposed to arrive but somehow still hasn't, if that makes sense. Now they haven't been able to see anything, because, as the doctor said, the u/s is a 'museum exhibit and he can't even see the important stuff'. I guess u/s sucks here.
Names you like: We like Danilo for a boy (Slavic version of 'Daniel') because of the 'justuce, judge' and 'God' roots - our daughter's name is Ana which has as one of its meanings 'God's grace, mercy or favor'. Sort of like balancing mercy with justice and all that. She has always been an easy child, so we're sort of inviting what's coming to us with the second one's name. . We can't seem to come up with any girl names. I sort of like Dina as the feminine version of the Hebrew 'justice' theme, but DH is not thrilled (in our language it's the same word as 'sand dune'
Birth Plans/Preferences: Giving birth with a wonderful midwife in another country? Sigh. Not happy with the options here, and not comfortable with UC, so I'll be going to the most natural-friendly hospital we have here... it's falling apart and there are cockroaches, but that beats routine pit, episiotomies, fundal pressure and concentration-camp-like atmosphere that I'd get elsewhere...
And a few more so we can get to know you better!
What number pregnancy is this for you? 2
Is your baby very active, or laid back? This one's evil and I think he/she's trying to break out of there!
Have you "popped"? I've been getting comments like 'any day now, huh?' for a couple of weeks, so...
Occupation: I teach English at a university. Currently writing... well, researching... for my PhD thesis combining Shakespeare, women and theology
Hobbies/Interests: Ouch. Nothing but fora and other stuff on the Internet lately
Share one weird/interesting fact about yourself: When I was as old as 10, I used to tell people I'd be a witch when I grew up . I had my own rituals and potions. I used to dress up as a witch for costume parties and scare little girls dressed as fairies, princesses and ballerinas.
Cindy, loving wife of 15 years
homeschooling mama to 4 wonderful girls, and 1 boy! praying for #6, sch, due 4/14/2013!
That's rough to have to choose the best of the worst for birthing options. You are a strong mama! Do they allow rooming in? How long do you have to stay there...can you leave right away if mama and baby are healthy? Do many women seek narcotics or epidural for pain or are they readily available there? It is always interesting to hear the different 'norms' for birth in different countries!
You could always come to Canada to have your baby. Did you know that if you do that, your baby will have Canadian citizenship? Actually I was told that our country encourages that kind of practice and some parents do this so that one day when their child is grown, they themselves can be sponsored to Canada by their grown child! It's the easiest way to immigrate I suppose, even if it takes a whole generation! LOL
Oh, my word. I think I'd be terrified to get pregnant if I had to go through that in the hospital.
Oh, my word. I think I'd be terrified to get pregnant if I had to go through that in the hospital.
I can't believe they would say you're a bad mother if you ask for help. Ridiculous. Why would they bother to make you stay if they're not going to help?
It must be an interesting experience for you to come to these boards and listen to us fuss over birth plans I am sure you will have a lovely birth. Where was your first child born?
It is so funny and ironic that you have things we want and we have things you want...the grass is always greener, right? Perhaps someday we will get it right in the US and in Serbia. Sigh!!! And when I win the lottery and don't need to earn a living I will be a free traveling midwife!
Oh, I've always thought that Serbia was a lot similar to Greece in a lot of issues, but certainly it is not similar at all when it comes to birth and labor! I wonder if this is because you were an ex-communist country?
Here the conventional pregnancy/birth model resembles the US one, very medicalised. But you can always find alternative ways to do things, like having your baby at home with a skilled midwife or, in my case, with my naturally-minded OB.
You can't choose OBs here - not officially, anyway, you can bribe someone though - so whoever happens to be there when you go into labor will attend your birth.
This is usually the case here in public hospitals as it is also the case in many EU countries (eg in Britain where I used to live).
But don't you have OBs in the private sector? Here these are quite the norm so I have a private OB and I'm going to give birth in a large private hospital or at home. So in essense I can choose to have the kind of birth that I want.

Cuomo says implementation of Common Core changes was 'flawed'
Critics of the way the state has rolled out new learning standards in schools got high-placed help from Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo this week when he called the implementation "flawed."
Cuomo, in his budget address, made his most critical statements to date on the way the state has managed the new Common Core State Standards as he called for a panel of educators and lawmakers to examine the issue.
But some concerned about the impact of the state's efforts to reform education say they don't want a new panel to duplicate a series of forums and public hearings held over the last few months in which educators, parents and community leaders already aired their concerns.
"In some respects, it's laudable that the governor is concerned about the implementation of Common Core and wants to bring folks together to take a look at that in New York State," said Allison Duwe, a parent and School Board member in the Springville-Griffith Institute School District. "However, I think it ignores the work that's been done over the last year."
Cuomo's criticism of the state's handling of the Common Core rollout came after months of protests by parents and educators who are concerned that the state has rushed the new state-by-state learning standards into classrooms while instruction guides and other materials were still coming online.
In his budget address, the governor reiterated his support for the "Common Core agenda" but said he plans to assemble a panel of education experts and members of the Legislature to make "recommendations for corrective action" that could be passed by the Legislature before its session ends in June.
"The way the Common Core has been managed by the Board of Regents is flawed," Cuomo said Tuesday. "There is too much uncertainty, confusion and anxiety. Parents, students and teachers need the best education reforms, which include Common Core and teacher evaluations, but they also need a rational system that is well-administered."
Cuomo also called on the new panel to look at eliminating standardized testing for all students in kindergarten through second grade but fell short of saying that the panel would look at broader concerns about standardized tests in higher grades. The state currently does not require any standardized tests for students below third grade, although some local school districts use them to assess students.
State Sen. John Flanagan, a Long Island Republican and chairman of the Senate Education Committee, called Cuomo's comments on Common Core a "marked difference."
"It was the first time I can recall him taking that strong a public position on Common Core standards," Flanagan told The Buffalo News on Wednesday.
Flanagan's committee last year held a series of public hearings on the state's education reform efforts and crafted its own series of recommendations, including addressing missing or incomplete curriculum materials provided by the state and increasing funding for the professional development of teachers.
"There's a wealth of good information out there right now that should be embraced," Flanagan said. "You want to debate it, you want to negotiate it, but I don't see any reason to wait until the end of the session. Parents, especially, and students expect that we're going to do something right now."
Flanagan's committee also has put forward several bills, including one that would ban standardized tests for students in second grade or below and another that would require an independent evaluation of tests tied to the Common Core standards.
The state Department of Education in 2010 voted to adopt the Common Core standards, which are a set of nationwide guidelines for what students should learn in each grade level. State education officials say the new standards are aimed at better preparing students for college and careers, but critics worry that the state has implemented the standards and new state tests before school districts, teachers and students have had time to prepare.
Critics of the state's efforts to reform education also have raised concern about the impact of standardized tests that are now tied to school funding and teacher evaluations.
The state Board of Regents in December set up its own working group to examine the implementation of the Common Core standards and to make recommendations following a series of hearings State Education Commissioner John B. King Jr. held across the state. King on Wednesday told The News he and the Board of Regents will continue to make adjustments and will look forward to working with the governor and his panel.
But King said the Regents, a body that Cuomo criticized for overseeing a "flawed'' process in rolling out the Common Core program, had recommended a number of suggestions to the governor for his budget plan, including $125 million for programs to train teachers and increase parental involvement. He noted Cuomo included no money for such an approach.
Asked about the governor's critical rhetoric aimed at the Regents and Education Department, King said, "I think the most important message he stressed was his strong support for the Common Core standards. Implementing this program with 700 school districts in the state we knew was always going to require adjustments along the way.''
While Cuomo took on new territory when he touched on the Common Core standards in his budget address, details about who would be appointed to the panel and how effective it would be in persuading the Board of Regents to implement its recommendations remain scarce.
"The question will be, No. 1, who's going to be on the panel and, No. 2, will this panel have any kind of authority or will they be advisory in nature? There are not a lot of details right now," Williamsville Superintendent Scott Martzloff said. "I would hope that the governor would consider having the panel consist largely of educators."

The Latest Price Targets Don't Imply Big Upside, But GameStop Stock Holds Value
- The shift toward next generation consoles, should put GameStop in the driver's seat.
- GameStop's expansion into the Loot (collectibles) business is a natural extension of its core competency, and should diversify its revenue stream.
- GameStop's Spring Mobile is now AT&T's largest reseller, and the move to mobile should give the company a more stable revenue base.
Certain companies refuse to be defined by their critics. It seems like every time an analyst says that GameStop (NYSE: GME) will be killed off by a new competitor, the company proves them wrong. With shares up more than 20% this year, skittish investors might wonder if it's time to take some money off the table. More so with analysts updating their price targets on the GameStop stock such that there might not be much more upside expected. However, apart from strong fundamentals and strong earnings trajectory there are three solid reasons to believe this year's price increase is the beginning of a longer-term move upward.
GameStop Is Shifting Into High Gear
The first reason why it looks like GameStop is just getting started, has to do with the industry shift toward next generation consoles. Gamers are moving up to the XBox One and PS4, with almost startling speed. In theory, this is good news for electronics retailers like Best Buy (NYSE: BBY), and gaming companies like Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ: ATVI) and Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: EA).
GameStop and Best Buy seem to be getting a lift from this move in the gaming industry. Best Buy's U.S. consumer electronics business witnessed a more than 7% annual increase in same-store sales in the most recent quarter. That being said, GameStop's CFO Robert Lloyd said that the company sold, "42% more next-gen consoles than in the second quarter of 2014 (in the U.S.)."
It's likely that game publishers will continue to drive increased adoption of the new systems with targeted software offerings. For instance, Activision Blizzard's highly anticipated 'Call of Duty: Black Ops III' is available for both next-gen and prior-gen consoles. However, customers that pre-order will get a special map that is only available to next-gen console owners.
In an even more direct move, Electronic Arts' Star Wars Battlefront game will only be available for PC, XBox One, and PS4. This title seems to have "biggest game of the year" written all over it. The fact that prior-gen console owners won't have access to it, could drive further upgrades.
With a strong adoption rate of next-gen consoles, GameStop now has four big hardware systems (XBox One and XBox 360, PS3 and PS4), supporting its huge previously owned software business. The upgrade of consoles creates a virtuous cycle for GameStop. The more next-gen consoles are sold, the more next-gen games are sold. The more next-gen games are sold, the more are available to be traded in.
GameStop Customers Want Loot
GameStop is trying to redefine the word "Loot" to mean collectibles. While GameStop has always carried a few collectibles in its stores, the company is getting serious about this business. In fact, the company's EVP of GameStop International, Michael Mauler, said, "we expect this category to grow to an over $500 million business globally over the next three years."
Loot is to GameStop, what services are to Best Buy, or digital content is to Activision or EA. Each of these companies have a plan to diversify their revenue stream. Best Buy would love for the Geek Squad to generate strong revenue growth. Activision and EA are seeing strong growth in digital receipts and recurrent purchases. In the same way, GameStop wants to extend its gaming knowledge into the collectibles industry.
The company purchased Geeknet (the company behind thinkgeek.com), which carries high margin collectibles around genres like Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel, and more. With the resurgence of popularity of these brands from new movies and toys, "geeky" collectors are interested in adding to their collections as well.
GameStop's collectibles business is growing fast, as last quarter sales increased by more than 48% year-over-year excluding currency. In addition, the company said in its recent survey, "67% of GameStop customers indicated they plan to purchase collectibles in the next 12 months." In the end, GameStop may end up being the company to go to for both games and collectibles for so called geeks worldwide.
Borrowing A Page From Best Buy's Playbook
In the last few years, Best Buy has been shifting its focus toward its mobile business. In fact, 46% of the company's domestic business comes from the Computing & Mobile division. With the growth of high-end smartphones, and customer's seemingly insatiable appetite to upgrade, it's hard to ignore the profit potential.
GameStop has gotten more serious about grabbing a piece of the mobile revolution, and its Technology Brands division is another cog in the company's growth machine. The company's Mobile & Electronics business grew revenue by 28% year-over-year ex. currency last quarter. The company acquired or opened more than 180 new stores, and its Spring Mobile branded stores are now AT&T's largest reseller.
Final Thoughts
GameStop is seen as a trusted resource for trade-ins and pre-owned games. With the industry moving toward next-gen consoles, and a strong holiday lineup of new releases, the company seems positioned to benefit in its pre-owned, new hardware, and new software businesses. The natural extension of Loot (collectibles) in both GameStop stores, and on thinkgeek.com, should give the company better opportunities to cross-sell games to Loot buyers and vice versa.
While GameStop reaps the benefits of increased gaming and Loot revenue, it is also diversifying itself into a leading mobile retailer as well. Long-term investors have been given the roadmap for GameStop's future. What was once seen as a brick-and-mortar game store, is turning into, "a global family of specialty retail brands."
The latest target price update by analysts implies a limited upside for GameStop stock, however, with shares selling for roughly 11 times projected earnings, and analysts calling for 12% annual growth in earnings for the next few years, the stock already seems appealing. When we add the stock's over 3% yield to the mix, it looks like GameStop is a solid value. Long-term investors should stop and check out this company, as it is done playing games and seems ready to run higher.

Back in 2015, Mahathir Mohamad said he does not believe that the Arabs would be so generous as to donate RM2.6 billion to Prime Minister Najib Razak.
Actually the Arabs are more generous than that and they have been so for 40 years since the 1970s.
In fact, Mahathir himself has benefited from such donations, as has Anwar Ibrahim even before he joined Umno in 1982.
Saudi Arabia has a policy of buying friends all over the world and it spends billions doing this.
It especially needs friends like Malaysia, Sunni countries that are anti-Shia.
The Saudis would spend whatever it costs to promote Sunni Islam and to isolate or demonise Shia Islam.
Malaysia fits that bill perfectly.
Humanitarian aid budget
Let us review some of the reports that have been published about this matter.
In November 2004, Leo Barasi from Oxford University wrote a paper titled 'Saudi Arabia''s humanitarian aid: a political takeover?', where he said:
Saudi Arabia has one of the largest humanitarian aid budgets in the world.
The three most prominent Saudi charities, the Saudi Red Crescent (SRC), the IIRO and al Haramain, are closely linked to the royal family.
Other charities have greater financial independence, but still remain associated with the royal family.
The general supervisor of each of these committees is Prince Naif, the interior minister and another full brother of King Fahd.
The full scope of the work of Saudi charities is difficult to trace accurately since they do not have a tradition of formally reporting their activities.
However, anecdotal evidence indicates that both IIRO and al Haramain were active throughout Africa and Asia until 2003.
At least until the mid-1990s, the IIRO was seeking to be impartial in its aid provision.
More recently, it has worked principally in Muslim-dominated countries.
"Be that as it may, the kingdom is one of the top donors in the world and has been so since the 1970s. In fact, and according to the UN Statistical Report for 2014, Riyadh was the sixth largest donor worldwide. More than 90 countries benefited from this largesse, including Sri Lanka and India," said Dr Joseph A. Kechichian on Aug 31, 2016, author of the just-published book From Alliance to Union: Challenges Facing Gulf Cooperation Council States in the Twenty-First Century (Sussex: 2016).
US presidential campaign funding
Saudi Arabia financed more than 20% of the cost of Hillary Clinton's campaign for presidential elections, Saudi Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed Salman was quoted as saying in a news report by the Jordanian Petra News Agency on June 13, 2016.
"Saudi Arabia has always sponsored both Republican and Democratic Parties of America and the kingdom also provides with full enthusiasm 20% of the cost of Hillary Clinton's campaign in the US presidential elections despite the fact that some influential forces within the country don't have a positive look toward supporting the candidate because she is a woman," the agency's report quoted Prince Mohammed as saying.
As recently as two years ago, Saudi Arabia's half century-long effort to establish itself as the main power among Arab and Islamic states looked as if it was succeeding.
A US State Department paper sent by former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, in 2014 and published by Wikileaks spoke of the Saudis and Qataris as rivals competing "to dominate the Sunni world".
On Thursday, the US administration offered Saudi Arabia $115 billion in arms sales.
The proposal, which includes training, weapons, tanks and other war equipment, is the highest during Washington's decades-long alliance with the monarchy.
Jatras says the arms sales figures show the level of corruption in the United States, adding that the Riyadh regime spends money on a lobbying campaign to "buy political influence" among American policy makers.
Lavish gifts
Saudi Arabia's monarchs are "bestowing" lavish gifts upon US President Barack Obama and his associates in a bid to buy more influence in the White House, an American political analyst says.
According to the latest annual accounting report by the US State Department, the former Saudi Arabian King Abdullah Abdulaziz Al Saud and other high-ranking Saudi officials showered the Obamas with more than $1.3 million in gifts throughout 2014.
Faisal bin Hassan Trad, the permanent representative of Saudi Arabia to the United Nations Office in Geneva, said the Kingdom has been the most generous country in the world in the field of development and humanitarian aid over the past four decades.
"Saudi Arabia donated, during this period, more than $115 billion to more than 90 countries all over the world," said the Saudi ambassador to the UN. – Malaysia Today

Whilst Caitlin was in ballet practising for her Grade 1 in July and the Husband was happily ensconced in the nearest pub, The Plum Tree, Ieuan and I snuck off to our local Morrisons to see if we could come up with some gifts Mat would like.
|Our Morrison's Father's Day Haul
|Now that's a cookie.
There was a small section dedicated to Father's Day gifts but it contained everything we needed, or at least the necessary prompts - confectionery, alcohol, mugs and glasses, cards and shaving gear nestled next to DVDs and books.
Ignoring Ieuan's assertion that "he urgently needed to look at the toys", I selected the following gifts - just right for sharing of course.
|Thornton's Milk Chocolate Beer Mug - £3
|Maynard's Wine Gums - £2
|Superman Mug & Coaster Set - £4
|Father's Day Glass - £2.50
|Selection of World Lagers - £5
|Iron Maiden Beer & Glass - £5
Note though, that not all of these are available on line so you may need to visit in person and employ your usual strategies to combat demands from your children. My favourite is "mummy hasn't got her hearing aids in so she can't hear you I'm afraid". Works a treat.

4 - 3 Final - OT
Predators escape Columbus with OT winDec 9, 2011 - 3:48 AM
Patric Hornqvist and Sergei Kostitsyn netted goals for Nashville in the final 1:36 -- with Kostitsyn's goal coming with 13 seconds left -- to send the game into overtime.
"It was just one of those games and you're sitting there down 3-1 and playing a real good game. And we thought hey, just stay with it and the guys stayed with it," Nashville head coach Barry Trotz said.
Mike Fisher scored the other tally for the Predators, who got two assists each from Martin Erat and Ryan Suter.
Pekka Rinne stopped 21-of-24 shots in the win.
Jeff Carter, Antoine Vermette and Derek Dorsett lit the lamp for the Blue Jackets, who returned home after going 2-2 on their four-game road trip.
Curtis Sanford made 18 saves in defeat.
Hornqvist put home a rebound after Shea Weber put a one-time slap shot on net from the left point to make it a one-goal game.
The Predators were then awarded a power-play with 1:06 left when Samuel Pahlsson was called for cross-checking.
With Rinne on the bench, Nashville broke through on its two-man advantage when Kostitsyn re-directed Erat's wrister from the right point to tie the score.
"When it's 6-on-4 you know they're going to be teeing off and making their plays. We had some chances to clear pucks 200 feet and didn't do it," Blue Jackets head coach Scott Arniel said. "Once they tied it up we were pretty rattled after that."
On a 2-on-1 break in overtime, Erat raced down the left wing and fed Wilson, who buried the one-timer into the back of the net from the high slot for the win.
Carter gave the Blue Jackets the 1-0 lead, 12:42 into the first period. Vinny Prospal's attempted wraparound was initially stopped, but Carter pounced on the rebound and lifted the puck past Rinne.
Vermette made it 2-0 midway through the second period as he backhanded a rebound home after Jared Boll threw a shot on net from the left circle.
Fisher finally got the Predators on the board 2:21 later. Francis Bouillon slapped a shot on net from the left point, and Fisher put home the rebound.
Dorsett came flying down the middle of the ice and finished by snapping his shot into the lower-right corner from the high slot to up the margin to 3-1 early in the third period.
Game Notes
The home team had won 19-of-23 prior meetings in the all-time series coming into this season, but the road team has won each of the three games played between the squads this year...Nashville holds a 37-19-10 mark against Columbus in the series.

Japanese game shows, looking to start a group
I was watching Most Extreme Challenge and had a crazy idea last week. What if I started a group that subtitled Japanese game shows. I have watched a few and they can be pretty cool.
Now, to start this group, I would obviously need raws. I have no idea if raws of game shows even exist. So this would mean if anybody can supply them, I could make use of them.
Also, anybody with skills pertaining to fansubbing.
I like to think that I am an experienced encoder, so I would be doing encoding for the group.
Timers, translators, RAW PROVIDERS, editors, typesetters, and anything else that fansub groups need are required.
So, if you would like to to try something new that as far as I can tell hasn't been before, let me know if you would like to help.
Also, I need to know if anybody would even watchfansubs of gameshows.
I hope I can get something started and look forward to working with anybody willing.
Oh yeah, I need a name too, I will be working on that, suggestions are welcome.
Feel free to e-mail if you want to help at firstname.lastname@example.com

Hi, interesting to see this thread here! I thought of doing this myself a while back, but dropped the idea because the projects I was interested in doing were too much work for me at the time. However, I'd like to offer words of encouragement.
1) Japanese game shows are interesting. I think people will download them to check them out if you get the word out.
2) Raws DO exist. Takeshi's Castle (the show MXC is based on) originally aired in 1986, but TBS has been broadcasting reruns of the whole series this year. They're not particuarly wonderful quality, but decent enough to sub from. If you can make friends in Japan, you might be able to get encodes of more old reruns of popular game shows. My only problem with the idea of subbing Takeshi's Castle was that I usually can't understand half of what they're saying. >_<
3) SUB TRIVIA NO IZUMI. This is the show I originally wanted to do. Trivia is great, and Japanese trivia is even better! I follow this show regularly, and you can get encodes of every episode ever if you want off of places like winny. I find the dialogue a lot easier to follow, and I mainly gave up on this project just because I have too much other stuff to do. I'd love to get other people hooked on this show too. Plus this year they do crazy things like shoot giant rubber bands to see how far they fly. ~.~
4) Get a -good- typesetter if you're going to be doing shows with tons of subtitles. ^_^
Overall I think this would be great - something new to expose fans of Japanese culture to. Hope it works out.
P.S. If you want more information about raws or anything else, feel free to PM me.
P.P.S. It might be a good idea to see if any existing groups were interested in working on this project too. ^^

sorry, i'm not offering any help, but I would love to check out some crazy japanese game shows if anyone is willing to sub them... after I told one of my friends about the anime and tv show subbing, he was greatly interested in finding out if any game shows were subbed (unfortunately at the time, the answer seemed to be no)... anyways, I heard a lot of stories about these game shows and would definitely check it out, as well as sending episodes to my friend...

Okay, I am glad to see interest in this. As for raws, anybody that can get something would be good right now. Also, I have a couple episodes of Takeshi's on vhs that a friend's cousin in Japan taped back in the 80's. I don't have a tv card so I couldn't make use of them, might I might me able to find a friend or something and these episodes could be a starting point if I ever find a tv card somewhere that I can use.
About winny. I have tried using it, but have had no success. I can't get any nodes or something. If anybody can learn me how to use winny or would be willing to use winny and get raws off of that, that would be good.

Man, I am taking on WAY too many projects. I bet this is gonna come back and bite me in the ...
But sure, I'll help you I have alright success with Winny, usually get about a dozen different raw encodes of Gunslinger Girl within 24 hours of it airing, so I would asume I have enough nodes to find some gameshows.
I'm also an editor. Some of my other group members might be willing to help too, and I can help distro. Sadly my translators are too busy to help right now.

Early 80s gameshows are the best for this kind of work, they're the type that were banned by the government because they were over-sadistic, etc. But they seems unattainable on winny.

I think it would be useful to compile a list of game shows here so I, or anyone else, can start searching winny for raws.
No one is perfect, I have experience in fansubbing -though I know the rest of the applicants likely do as well. I'm sorry I posted that at almost 3am, I prefer to not edit at that time of night.
I apologize for being a human in need of sleep.
Oh, and an editor does more than just correct spelling, well a good one does. Sentence flow and logical coherence are also important.
If you want to nitpick, editor should not be capitalized in your sentence, and ellipses are three periods, not two. Rather ironic you have two errors in one sentence when you were saying you checked before you posted.
Ok, I'm sorry I know I am being a bit petty, and I do not want to start a flame war, but I could not let go an off the cuff remark on my imperfections that contained its own imperfections.

I know exactly how many dots a true ellipse should have, I could nitpick at your sentence structure and more with great detail if you wish.
I haven't slept in 4 days now, I was trying to make a joking comment yet you have taken it much further. Would you rather that I went into more detail?

Mobile Robots at Your Fingertip: Bezier Curve On-line Trajectory Generation for Supervisory Control
Arkin, Ronald C.
Hwang, Jung-Hoon
Kwon, Dong-Soo
MetadataShow full item record
A new interfacing method is presented to control mobile robot(s) in a supervised manner. Mobile robots often provide global position information to an operator. This research describes a method whereby the operator controls a mobile robot(s) using his finger or stylus via a touchpad or touchscreen interface. Using a mapping between the robot's operational site and the input device, a human user can provide routing information for the mobile robot. Two algorithms have been developed to create the robot trajectory from the operator's input. Information regarding numerous path points is generated when the operator moves his finger/stylus. To prune away meaningless point information, a simple but powerful significant points extracting algorithm is developed. The resulting significant points are used as waypoints. An on-line piecewise cubic Bezier curves (PCBC) trajectory generation algorithm is presented to create a smooth trajectory for these significant points. As the method is based on distance and not on time, the velocity of mobile robot can be controlled easily within its allowable dynamic range. The PCBC trajectory can also be modified on the fly. Simulation results are presented to verify these newly developed methods.

Watch Featured Tv Shows
Between the Lines: Between The Lines is set in the Complaints Investigation Bureau (CIB) - the department responsible for investigating other police officers - of Londons Metropolitan Police. The first two series had stories based around various different aspects of the darker side of the police, ranging from such topics as petty corruption, racism and sexual harassment through to grand conspiracy, with some plot threads running through the series over several episodes. The series also dealt with the personal lives of its less-than-clean-cut characters, particularly the womanising lead character Tony Clark, and is also notable for its inclusion of a lesbian character in a major role. In the third and final series, the focus changed significantly, moving away from the police force to other areas of security and espionage.

Wim De Meyer, ETIS Chairman, had the following to say about our Members' outlook for the future. "During 2015, it was refreshing to witness our Members not only focusing on a cost-cutting mentality but to evolve also towards a more positive growth and innovation outlook. Innovation was the main topic of discussion during the Copenhagen Gathering and our Members discussed various innovation and collaboration models. The latest findings of our annual IT Benchmarking study (TeBIT) also supports this and it is mirrored in our latest ETIS activities which have a spotlight on digital transformation and digital services. ETIS is one of the few trusted platforms where Telcos can openly exchange knowledge and best practices in a non-competitive environment." To learn more about IT costs and spending patterns in Telcos, please download our TeBIT 2015 Executive Report, which was produced in co-operation with BCG.
This year we have seen that Information Security still remains at the top of the Telco agenda with three out of ten Working Groups dedicated to Telco security related issues. Earlier this year, the CERT-SOC group launched a landmark project to automate the sharing of cyber threat intelligence. This project is a first for the Telco industry and six of our Members are already actively sharing vital threat intelligence via this platform with more planned to join shortly. ETIS also organised a unique 3-day Reverse Engineering and Router Forensics Training in Amsterdam, kindly supported by KPN. ENISA also asked ETIS to help them create realistic, Telco specific cyber threat scenarios so that they can design realistic European wide cyber exercises.
Billing, Business Intelligence (and Big Data) and Digital Sales & Services are also riding high on the Telco agenda. All three groups conducted a record number of surveys and benchmarks which is one of the best ways for our members to exchange knowledge, identify best practices and learn from one another. What makes these activities unique is that they are purpose built by the Telcos, for the Telcos and the ETIS Community provides the vital trust required to run such projects. More details on the Working Groups can be found in this year's ETIS Annual Report.
On the member front, ETIS currently has 30 Telco Members and we are pleased to announce that NOS (Portugal) and Manx Telecom (Isle of Man) joined ETIS as Members earlier this year. La Poste (France) also recently joined the ETIS Anti-Abuse Telco Network. Lithium became part of the ETIS Community as an Associate Member and is active in the Digital Sales & Services WG. We are also delighted to announce the very recent partnership with the Internet Society of China.
Last but not least, Tora Tenden, Secretary General for ETIS has decided to retire and will be pursuing other opportunities. Tora became ETIS Chairman in 2002, a function she held up to 2013 when she took the position of Secretary General. ETIS would like to thank Tora for her work over the years that helped to shape the organisation and its culture of 'sharing knowledge'. "After working with Tora for more than 20 years and the last 12 years in ETIS, this new situation will be strange for me. We will miss her engagement and her good humour, always trying to connect people to share knowledge as the Slogan of ETIS is saying. Please join me in wishing Tora the very best in her future endeavours." ETIS Managing Director, Terje Tondel.
ETIS will continue to serve its members and is moving forward towards a renewed strategy with further alignment to the challenges that are facing operators. We want ETIS to be seen as a competent organisation that is attractive to all Telcos. We want to ensure that ETIS sets and drives the strategic agenda in the Telco space based on information sharing and from there leading to collaboration where possible. It is our goal that the value of the ETIS membership is significant to all the members. To reach this ambition we need to build upon the current momentum and further enhance the professionalism of the organisation.
On behalf of everyone in the ETIS Central Office, we wish you all a happy and relaxing holiday season. We are looking forward to meeting all of you soon in 2016 and all of our Working Group meetings are already in place as can be seen on the ETIS calendar . Sharing knowledge is our strength!

The anus is the external opening through which feces are expelled from the body. Just inside the anus are a number of small glands. If one of these glands become blocked, an abscess—an infected cavity—may form. An anal abscess is usually treated by surgical drainage, although some drain spontaneously. About 50% of these abscesses may develop into a fistula, in which a small tunnel connects the infected gland inside the anus to an opening on the skin around the anus.
Most fistulas result from an anal abscess. A small number of fistulas may less frequently be caused by other processes such as Crohn's disease, sexually transmitted diseases, trauma, tuberculosis, cancer, or diverticulitis.
What are the symptoms of an anal fistula?
The following may be symptoms or signs of an anal fistula:
- Recurrent anal abscesses
- Pain and swelling around the anus
- Pain with bowel movements
- Bleeding
- Bloody or foul-smelling drainage (pus) from an opening around the anus. The pain may decrease after the fistula drains.
- Irritation of the skin around the anus due to persistent drainage
- Fever, chills, and a general feeling of fatigue. (However, these may be symptoms of many conditions.)
You should see your physician if you notice any of these symptoms.
How is an anal fistula diagnosed?
Your physician can usually diagnose an anal fistula by examining the area around the anus. He or she will look for an external opening on the skin. If this is visible, your physician will then try to determine the depth and direction of the fistula tract. Often drainage can be produced from the external opening.
Some fistulas may not be visible on the skin's surface. In this case, your physician may need to perform additional tests, starting with anoscopy, in which a special instrument is used to see inside your anus and rectum. Your physician may also order an ultrasound or MRI of the anal area to better define the fistula tract.
If a fistula is found, your physician may also want to do further tests to see if the condition is related to Crohn's disease, an inflammatory disease of the intestine. About 25% of people with Crohn's disease develop fistulas. Among these studies are blood tests, X-rays, and colonoscopy. A colonoscopy, in which a flexible, lighted instrument is inserted into the colon via the anus, is performed under conscious sedation, a type of light anesthetic.
What are the treatments for an anal fistula?
Surgery, performed by a colon and rectal specialist, is usually necessary to manage an anal fistula. During surgery, the physician will assess the depth and extent of the fistula tract. Most fistulas are treated with a fistulotomy, in which the skin and muscle over the tunnel are cut open, converting it into an open groove. This will allow the fistula tract to heal from the inside out. A more complex fistula may require placement of a special drain—a seton—for at least six weeks, after which a definitive surgical repair is done. Fistula surgery is generally done on an outpatient basis. Very large or deep fistula tunnels may require a short hospital stay.
Is any follow-up treatment necessary?
Following your fistula surgery, your physician may recommend soaking the affected area in a warm bath and taking stool softeners or laxatives for a week. Since you may also experience some pain or discomfort in the area after surgery, your physician will prescribe pain pills. Most fistulas respond well to surgical treatment.

Aszemar Glenn is a Portland native who fell in love with soul and gospel music at a young age and, later, trained in classical music while a student at Pacific University.
I plan on producing more original music from now on.
Music can be purchased through my Band Camp Website the link is provided on this page. My music is still evolving. Which it should! I consider myself a musical mutt, you can quote me on this, for I draw from many different influences and sources.
