Former Jihadist Leads Libyan Rebels
Abdel Hakim Belhaj fought among militant jihadists in the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group in the late 1980s, but he's since ditched his extremist views. Today, he's one of the best rebel commanders in Libya, intent on ending Gaddafi's reign and forming a democracy with the National Transitional Council. Belhaj negotiated his prison release with Gaddafi's regime last year in return for denouncing al Qaeda and its jihad philosophy. But in a recent interview with CNN, he stressed that the LIFG was "not a terrorist organization" and that he was never affiliated with al Qaeda. "I am an ordinary citizen of Libya… a normal Muslim," he said.

|Iceland May Bar Foreign Buying of Realty
Iceland's Interior Minister has introduced a bill curbing foreigners' ability to buy property in the country, according to a statement on the parliament's website.
The bill, which is being discussed in the Reykjavik-based legislature, seeks to prevent people who aren't citizens of Iceland from purchasing properties that include water rights or fishing rights. The interior minister would be authorized to grant exemptions to people or firms operating in Iceland.
The legislation follows Iceland's repeated rejections of Chinese billionaire Huang Nubo's plan to invest US$200 million in 300 square kilometers of land in the north part of the island. Huang wanted to develop a resort and a mountain park in the area through his company, Beijing Zhongkun Investment Group Co.

Medical Services in the Suburbs
Australia has a very well-developed healthcare system which provides medical services not only to the people living in the metropolitan cities but also to those living in the suburban areas. It becomes very difficult to travel a long distance in case of emergencies. So, medical centres have been set up in all areas.
Visit the medical centre for all your medical problems
You should not avoid going to the doctor if you are experiencing any kind of physical or mental discomfort. You might not be able to fathom the severity of your problem and if you ignore it, it might aggravate into something more serious. You should visit the medical centres for even common problems like cough and cold, throat infections, influenza, flu, twenty four etc. as these can be symptoms of some other serious infections. These medical centres provide full family healthcare services for children, women, men and the elderly. You can visit these centres like the Ascot medical centre for families for childhood immunizations, flu vaccinations, lifestyle related problems, chronic problems like arthritis, diabetes and blood pressure problems, minor surgeries after accidents, getting stitches to close wounds, emergency first aid, family planning issues, maternity services, pathological tests and X-rays.
Importance of women's healthcare
Women face a lot of hormonal changes at different points in their lives like puberty, maternity and middle age. Generally, women tend to avoid their medical issues out of the fear of expenses or the trouble that the family has to face. This aggravates the problem in many cases. After menopause, a lot of ailments take over the body of a woman because immunity becomes low and hormones create a havoc inside the body. Thousands of women become victims of depression which is not visible to all but it seriously affects the mental well-being of a woman. Both physical and mental well-being are equally important, so nowadays, the womens health doctors are focusing on the psychological changes that occur as a result of physical problems.
Women are also more prone to getting breast and ovarian cancer. Therefore, they should go for regular tests like breast check ups and pap smear tests.
24/7 medical privileges
These medical centres are open day and night and on Sundays too. You need not worry about the absence of doctors during emergencies after office hours. You can either visit the medical centre or the doctor can come to your place if you are unable to do so. In order to locate a clinic or a doctor near your place, you can simply visit websites like https://www.smartclinics.com.au/medical-centres/. You need not worry about the medical expenses because most of the centres and doctors in the cities and even suburban doctors like the Newmarket doctors, function on a bulk-billing basis. Also, those who have Medicare cards are sure to get rebates on the bills. This system has been started by the Australian government to make healthcare affordable for all.
It is said that good health is man's greatest wealth because if your health is good then you can achieve anything that you desire. So, in order to keep yourself physically and mentally fit, you should visit the doctor to get an immediate solution for all your medical problems.

Bullet And A Target Chords - Citizen Cope
I was looking at the first two versions of the tabs for this song and found that the bar chords throughout the song sound better and won't give you carpel tunnel if a capo is and they are played as open chords. Also I added another chord that transitions well the last note of the pattern to the first which i can here in the actual song. This is first tab, but a simple song, so here it goes. Note: - the chords are placed directly above the syllable that should be sung.

A deeply personal, revealing, and lyrical portrait of Duane Allman, founder of the legendary Allman Brothers Band, written by his daughter
In 1969, Duane Allman had a vision for a band with two drummers, two guitarists, and a bass player, anchored by his brother's soulful lead vocals—and the Allman Brothers Band was born. Their fiery, mesmerizing performances tore down barriers and changed the landscape of American music forever, and the tragedies that beset the Brothers turned them into legends. In this remarkable, intimate book, Duane's daughter, Galadrielle, tells the story of how the band came together, their influences and passions, their rivalries and incomparable musical vision. She introduces us to the artists, women, engineers, and roadies who were a part of the family. From Daytona Beach to the Fillmore East, this is both Duane's story and the band's, told with clarity, passion, yearning, and soul.
Praise for Please Be with Me
"Duane Allman was my big brother, my partner, my best friend. I thought I knew everything there was to know about him, but Galadrielle's deep and insightful book came as a revelation to me, as it will to everyone who reads it."—Gregg Allman
"Poignant and illuminating . . . brings Duane Allman to life in a way that no other biography will ever be able to do."— BookPage
"Galadrielle Allman offers a moving and poetic portrait of her late father."— Rolling Stone
"Allman's descriptions and scenes are vivid, even cinematic. . . . The pleasure of reading Please Be With Me lies as much in its lyrical prose as in its insider anecdotes."— Newsweek
"An elegantly written, heartfelt account."—The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
"Evokes a wistful, elegiac atmosphere; fans of the '70s music scene may find it indispensable."—San Jose Mercury News
"A compelling and intimate portrait of Duane."— The Hollywood Reporter
"Illuminating."— Kirkus Reviews
"Frequently touching . . . Readers will come away feeling more connected to the man and his music."— Publishers Weekly
"The most moving music biography I've ever read. Better than that, Galadrielle has uncovered the heart and motivations, the desolation and saving graces, of the man, and lays it plain in a born-to-write southern voice. She has looked into absence, and from it she has salvaged two hearts: her father's and her own."—Mikal Gilmore, author of Shot in the Heart

Italian State Tourist Board Launches Chinese Website at Italian Pavilion
updated: 2010-06-01
Italian State Tourist Board has launched its official Chinese website, yidalinihao.com, at the Italian Pavilion in Shanghai World Expo 2010.
Caterina Cittadino, the minister of the board, stated that China currently has more than 300 million netizens and and she expected thatmost of them would choose Internet to find tourism information they need. This website will show all aspects of Italy to attract more Chinese tourists, and also provide a platform enabling people to share their own travel experience.
The number of Chinese outbound tourists has been increasing in recent years, and Italy is a very popular choice among European destinations for Chinese. Statistics show Chinese tourists made about two million overnight stays in 2009, bringing EUR171 million tourism revenue to the country.
Yet according to an survey conducted by Italian National Institute for Tourism Research, about 33.3% of the Chinese respondents know little about Italy. This website will work as an innovative tool for communications between the board and Chinese tourists.
To promote Italian tourism, the board has set up an office in China, and will set up more in the future.

Video and photography business model disruption has already started
After a post about boosting your SEO , this is the second post on a wider aspect of video and photography business and how I see the changes coming.
Video and photography business model disruption.
Being a good photographer or cameraman is not enough anymore to survive the video and photography business. Where a good portfolio and few meeting should have you covered in the past; you need now to work on your SEO and follow a more larger competition. But the future will shows a lot of changes in the way clients will reach you for a an assignment as well. It's called disruption because a new business model emerge on the photography and video market.
According to the newcomer in photography business model in China; it looks like it's now accepted to say that there is no money anymore for photographer covering events. So he can now let this part goes to flame with underpaid/in-experimented photographers and get the same price for client getting huge benefit out of it. I'm still waiting to see someone with an Iphone shooting same picture than my Sony FS7 footage…
Why is it important even for the overseas photography market?
It's now working super well in China for some reasons I will explain below. But even if they can't copy and paste this exact model, they are making so much money, that they can easily bring a offer oversea. Killing fragile business and asphyxiating the old players long enough to get market dominance later on. I always found that people look China as another world without understanding how it will be in front of their door the next year. Be aware that is just the beginning.Read More →

Going by the Waldorf celebration of Advent the first week celebrates the mineral kingdom and the festival of stones. To me this indicates a connection with the Earth (nature and seasons fits with the second week that focuses on the plant kingdom).
Being totally original I want to keep our resolution from last year to cut down on waste. I think we have become a lot more conscientious about it this year (especially in regards to food waste), but I would like to look more closely at the things we buy and get rid of to be sure we aren't creating lots of unnecessary waste that goes into a landfill. I think we're really good about recycling, but I would like to start looking at things and seeing if they can have a second life as something else.
I have to say one of my favorite children's books that exemplifies this idea is Ox-Cart Man by Donald Hall and illustrated by Barbara Cooney. A New England farmer takes a cart full of goods to market where he sells everything, even the cart and ox. He brings home a handful of new, useful things to his family who then spends the winter, spring and summer making new things to be taken to market the next fall. The beauty is how they put everything to use on their farm, even things that might not seem like they could be useful. The best example of this is the children collecting the feathers their geese and chickens have dropped to sell as pillow filling. I doubt our family would be that resourceful (although we can aspire!), but I think it's a good message to look at everything around you and be sure there isn't something else you can use it for as well as simply being conscious about waste.

We are very grateful to Wexford man and sponsor Justin Ffrench (J Ffrench Ltd) for his generous sponsorship for this inaugural tournament with Shields, medals and a meal for all the girls.

This dish was the appetizer of an international dinner I made for the parents. Juicy roma tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, and a bite of basil is as Italian as you can get. And the balsamic vinaigrette is the perfect pairing to step it up a notch. This is so simple that it really doesn't even need a recipe.
Roma tomato
Fresh mozzarella cheese
Basil leaves
1. Cut tomatoes into medium-thick slices. Cut cheese into slices and place on top tomato. Place a basil leaf onto the cheese, and there you have it. A little tower of pure, fresh food.
Balsamic Vinaigrette
Balsamic vinegar
Olive oil
Ground pepper
1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper.

Iconic as they are, the gnarled features of Walter White and weighty moustache of Ron Swanson don't exactly make for the most appetising of frozen desserts.
They do, however, make for some great poster designs - as verified by Pop Culture Popsicles, an ongoing art project from illustrator Andrew Heath. Featuring Predator, Bender, Judge Dread, Robocop, Adam West's Batman and even Daft Punk's recent look on the cover of Random Access Memories, the faces in the collection provide a nostalgia-tinged slice of brilliance.
The portraits and prints are about to feature at next week's 2014 Lexington Comic & Toy Con, after which you can purchase them online yourself at Heath's website. Though such is the choice, deciding just which one to buy may cause brain freeze.

The Culinary Creator
We all know fresh herbs offer such depth of flavor in cooking. A small, indoor herb garden with Mom's favorite herbs will not only be beautiful, but will be a true treat when she's cooking (but, please ... take Mom out to eat on Sunday!) You can easily do this yourself with an organic potting soil, a few of her favorites (rosemary, English thyme, Italian parsley and mint are a great start!) and a lovely planter that suits her decor of choice:
The Inner Aesthetician
If a spa gift certificate is not in your budget this year, treat Mom to some homemade treatments such as these deliciously smelling body scrubs courtesy of Martha Stewart Living:
The Family Art Curator:
A perfect gift for any age to make! Purchase a simple black frame/white mat combo and you can quickly turn it into a child's masterpiece! Use the mat as a "canvas" and the little ones can decorate it (colored pencils or markers work GREAT!) and then simply sign the bottom right-hand corner "Happy Mother's Day 2012." Frame one of your favorite candids of the kids or grandkids and voila! It also is a great way to start a memory wall and you can make it an annual tradition!
The Purposeful Poet
Whether she writes for leisure, for gratitude, for therapy ... a homemade journal is sure to be meaningful for Mom:
No matter what you decide, honoring Mom this weekend will be most meaningful with your own touches and traditions. Remember, it's not about the most fancy or the most expensive ways to celebrate her - it's about the personal sentiment. That's what she'll remember (and love) most.

Casting calls as it applies to performing arts is a great opportunity, to show your talents, and as an aspiring performer, you should try to attend as many as you possibly can.
Do you have a talent that you want the world to know about? Then the casting call, can be your shot at fame and stardom. There are different types of calls, Some are open calls, where any one who thinks that he or she can fill the desired roles is allowed to attend and others are closed to the public and attendance is by invitation only.
Although specified physical characteristics such as weight and height, may be desired for certain roles, it should not be allowed to deter you from pursuing any role that interests you, The directors and casting people are often wiling to make concessions and adjust the role to anyone who is suitable. The variety of jobs available or posted for casting calls is far and wide, and not only experienced actors are required, but there are often calls for people with absolutely no acting experience.
You should not have to look too far and long to find a casting call. There may be opportunities to attend a casting audition that suits your fancy and is easily within your reach. Actors and all types of performers are needed continually. The need is so great that many casting calls are being completed on line. The game has changed with available technology, that in many instances, you upload a video or demo of your self along with other information to be personally invited to a casting call.
You can begin your search by region or by type or the type of talent you wish to display. Categories can be as diverse as commercials, to film, theater or modelling and in different media such as Reality TV or comedy. After making your selection, you will then be allowed access to more information about the corresponding role including the location and dates of the audition and what information may be required in the next step of the process.
Casting calls are often used for discovery and the classic casting audition, as is usually perceived may not have changed much. Performances may still be judged with cold readings or sometimes the reciting of a monologue, poem or acapella singing. Casting directors are often experienced enough to evaluate talent within seconds. With the right type and amount of practice before an audition, any aspiring performer can increase the chances of winning in an audition by approaching the situation with confidence.

Crystal Palace are close to completing the signing of goalkeeper Lewis Price.
The former Derby and Brentford keeper, 25, is available on a free transfer and will provide back-up for regular Eagles number one Julian Speroni. Boss George Burley is also looking to boost his attacking options by the time Chelsea arrive at Selhurst Park for Saturday's glamour friendly.
"Lewis Price, we're looking to complete that for the number two keeper," said Burley.
"We're talking to a couple of midfield players and we've got our eye on a striker. We're working on things."
Meanwhile, Darren Ambrose and Sean Scannell are expected to be in contention for the visit of the Blues after missing Tuesday night's friendly defeat at Crawley with knocks.

The truth is that our race survived ignorance; it is our scientific genius that will do us in.
The most useful and least expensive household repair tool is the telephone.
Ketchup left overnight on dinner plates has a longer half-life than radioactive waste.
Modern science was conceived largely as an answer to the servant problem.
If Sigismund Unbuckle had taken a walk in 1426 and met Wat Tyler, the Peasants' Revolt would never have happened and the motor car would not have been invented until 2026, which would have meant that all the oil could have been used for lamps, thus saving the electric light bulb and the whale, and nobody would have caught Moby Dick or Billy Budd.
50 per cent of the public don't actually know what the term 50 per cent means.
A newspaper has come out with a new survey. Apparently, three out of four people make up 75 per cent of the population.
There are two kinds of statistics: the kind you look up, and the kind you make up.
Statistics are figures that prove the best time to buy anything was last year.
He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lampposts - for support rather than illumination.
Statistics are like loose women; once you get your hands on them you can do anything you like with them.
When I die, I'm going to leave my body to science fiction.
You can't make anything idiot proof because idiots are so ingenious.
The guy who invented the first wheel was an idiot, but the guy who invented the other three, now he was a genius.
I'm lazy. But it's the lazy people who invented the wheel and the bicycle because they didn't like walking or carrying things.
My father invented the burglar alarm, but it was stolen from him.
It's the greatest thing since they reinvented unsliced bread.
He's a millionaire. He made all his money designing the little diagrams that tell you which way to put batteries in.
If you build a better mousetrap, you will catch better mice.
The telescope is a device having a relation to the eye similar to that of the telephone to the ear, enabling, distant objects to plague us with a multitude of needless details. Luckily, it is unprovided with a bell summoning us to the sacrifice.
My wife insisted on looking through the telescope. She heard a nasty rumour that the star I bought for her birthday imploded.
The last time I came up with an invention, I passed the sketch round the pub and I never got the bit of paper back. Three years later ... Microsoft Word for Windows.
I have a telescope on the peephole of my door so that I can see who's at the door for 200 miles.
I am an expert on electricity. My father occupied the chair of applied electricity at the State Prison.
I've had all the electric leads in my house shortened to save on electricity.
And God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light, but the Electricity Board said he would have to wait till Thursday to be connected.
Every great scientific truth goes through three stages. First, people say it conflicts with the Bible. Next, they say it has been discovered before. Lastly, they say they have always believed it.
The first rule of intelligent tinkering is to save all the parts.
Automatic simply means that you cannot repair it yourself.
The thing with high-tech is that you always end up using scissors.
You can stop almost anything from functioning by hitting it with a large rock.
Normal people believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.
Inanimate objects are classified scientifically into three major categories - those that don't work, those that break down and those that get lost.
How do you get that non-stick stuff to stick to frying pans?
It's called a pen. It's like a printer, hooked straight to my brain.
Let's be frank, the Italians' technological contribution to humankind stopped with the pizza oven.
The public is not really concerned with atomic fallout, because so far it has not affected television reception.
It's a good thing we have gravity, or else when birds die they would stay up there.
Everything that goes up must come down. But there comes a time when not everything that's down can come up.
A stitch in time would have confused Einstein.
I tried to imagine the easiest way God could have done it.
A good scientific theory should be explicable to a barmaid.
When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute, and it's longer than any hour. That's relativity.
The greatest unsolved scientific problem is: how can you be sitting on a damp towel for half an hour and not realize it until you stand up?
If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what happens if you strap toast on the back of a cat and drop it?
The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage.
If Darwin's theory of evolution was correct, cats would be able to operate a can-opener by now.
It is more comfortable to believe that we are a slight improvement on a monkey than such a falling off from the angels.
My suspicion is that the universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose.
I worry about scientists discovering that lettuce has been fattening all along.
Scientists have enlarged the brains of mice, so you know what that means? Smarter hot dogs.
I can't wait till they start cloning humans. I could have sex with my underage clone.
Dolly the cloned sheep got pregnant in the old-fashioned, conventional way - by a shepherd.
Scientists think they can now clone an all-white zebra. Now, I'm no expert, but isn't that a horse?
Not all chemicals are bad. Without hydrogen or oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer.
Apparently, the difference between a stink bomb and a Level 3 Toxin Biohazard is two extra drops of sulphur textraoxide. I am totally suing that website.
My theory of evolution is that Darwin was adopted.
The Smithsonian Museum found my wife's shoe. On the basis of its measurements, they constructed a dinosaur.
Scientists have discovered a noise made just prior to the Big Bang that sounds something like 'oops'.
According to modern astronomers, space is finite. This is a very comforting thought, particularly for people who can never remember where they have left things.
The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.
I don't think there's intelligent life on other planets. Why should other planets be any different from this one?
Outer space is no place for a person of breeding.
The Chinese just put a man in space. They didn't use a rocket: they stood on each other's shoulders and passed him up.
Buzz Aldrin, tell me the truth, were you really mad when you were beaten to the moon by Louis Armstrong?
As I hurtled through space, one thought kept crossing my mind - every part of this rocket was supplied by the lowest bidder.
Space isn't remote at all. It's only an hour's drive away if your car could go straight upwards.
There is speculation. Then there is wild speculation. Then there is cosmology.
If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.
Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity and I'm not sure about the former.
Living on Earth may be expensive, but it includes an annual free trip around the sun.
If the universe is expanding, why can't I find a parking space?
I love mathematics. Add a bed, subtract our clothes, divide our legs, and multiply!
Mathematics was always my worst subject. I couldn't convince my teachers that many of my answers were meant ironically.
A man has one hundred dollars and you leave him with two dollars, that's subtraction.
Stand firm in your refusal to remain conscious during algebra. In real life, I assure you, there is no such thing as algebra.
Few persons invent algebra on their own.
The metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimetre bullet.
I'm not good at math. I've never been good at math. I accepted it from an early age. My teacher would hand me a math test. I'd just write on it, 'I'm going to marry someone who can do this.
- A very small casserole.
I once dated a guy who was so dumb he couldn't count to twenty-one unless he was naked.
That's 24 points for Schumacher and 23 points for Hill, so there's only one point between them if my mental arithmetic is correct.
If those scientists are so smart, why do they all count backwards?
If it squirms, it's biology; if it stinks, it's chemistry; if it doesn't work, it's physics and if you can't understand it, it's mathematics.
Your equation isn't right. It isn't even wrong.
The real goal of physics is to come up with an equation that could explain the universe but still be small enough to fit on a T-shirt.
In order to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe.
Quantum mechanics: the dreams stuff is made of.
If a scientist were to cut his ear off, no one would take it as evidence of a heightened sensibility.
Scientists are rarely to be counted among the fun people. Awkward at parties, shy with strangers, deficient in irony - they have no choice but to turn their attention to the close study of everyday objects.
Science is a lot of little guys in tweed suits cutting up frogs on foundation grants.
Oh, there's so much I don't know about astrophysics. I wish I'd read that book by that wheelchair guy.
Okay, so what's the speed of dark?

Talk:Historic Britain
historic:civilization tagging inconsistency
This page current suggests historic:civilization=middle_ages and then the additional narrowing-down tag historic:period=anglo-saxon ...but that's currently inconsistent with the "main" tag docs here: Key:historic:civilization#Other_cultures which suggest historic:civilization=anglo-saxon
-- Harry Wood (talk) 21:44, 25 March 2016 (UTC)
Anyone mapping historic:civilization=middle_ages?
I was looking at creating an example following this tagging scheme: Chapel of St Peter-on-the-Wall, one of the oldest buildings in the UK. Aside from the above issue, a couple of other things: It's described as "anglo-celtic" in the wikipedia article, so I put historic:period=anglo-celtic, but not sure if it can more usefully be classified as anglo-saxon for the "period". And more fundamentally, I'm surprised to find I've created the only object using historic:civilization=middle_ages in the UK: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/ffs How come? -- Harry Wood (talk) 00:12, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

New Canaan lawyer co-authors antitrust guide
Brian E. Moran, a resident of New Canaan and lawyer at Robinson & Cole, has co-authored a guide to antitrust laws written for C-level executives, marketers and salespeople.
"The Executive's Antitrust Guide to Pricing: Understanding Implications of Typical Marketing, Distribution, and Price Practices" offers answers to the most commonly asked pricing questions posed by executives and sales personnel.
Moran co-authored the guide with Baker Hostetler lawyer Lee H. Simowitz.
In undertaking the book, the authors sought to create a resource that allows a company to educate its marketing and salespeople about antitrust compliance in a practical, understandable way.
"We want business people to be able to reference our book and quickly find a scenario similar to one they are facing and understand the associated antitrust implications," Moran said.
Through hypothetical fact scenarios, Moran and Simowitz offer guidance on what can and cannot be done from an antitrust perspective. The book also serves as a compliance and training tool for in-house counsel in an era of increased enforcement of antitrust laws and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

The book is available for preview and purchase on the Thomson Reuters website.
Moran is a partner at Robinson & Cole who handles a variety of commercial litigation matters, with an emphasis on antitrust, intellectual property and licensing disputes. He counsels clients on antitrust compliance and marketing and distribution issues, including vertical price restraints, customer and territorial allocations, volume discounts, price discrimination, promotional allowances and incentives, resale price maintenance, refusals to deal and dealer terminations, exclusive dealing arrangements and tie-ins.
In addition to "The Executive's Antitrust Guide to Pricing," Moran also co-authored the book "E-counsel: The Executive's Legal Guide to Electronic Commerce."
Robinson & Cole has 200 lawyers in nine offices.

-- The time has come. Grey Cup 103 is upon us with the Edmonton Eskimos battling the Ottawa REDBLACKS. I don't think when teams got together for training camp in June that anyone had this matchup happening on Sunday. The Eskimos were in the equation for sure, but how could have anyone seen what was going to happen in Ottawa. Their rise to prominence in year 2 of existence is the story of the year in what has been a bad year for the CFL on a variety of levels.
While I do believe the Eskimos are the better team, I think Ottawa gets it done. I don't know why and I have no rhyme or reason when making this pick, but I think they somehow get it done even though they are outmatched just about everywhere except one thing. They have the experience on their side as guys like Henry Burris, Greg Ellingson, Keith Shologan and Zack Evans have been to the big game while the Eskimos feature a roster of players that mainly haven't been on this stage. I don't know how the REDBLACKS do it, but I say they do and I will say they do it by a score of 29-21 with Burris being named the MOP, Would that be enough for Burris to call it a career? I can't see that happening. If he does, there is a spot at TSN waiting for him.
-- There is a lot of talk about Greg Ellingson's TD on 2nd and 25 to win the Eastern final and how it is a play that will go down as one of the greatest in CFL history. Whoa, whoa, whoa! As great a play as that was by both Ellingson and Burris, if Edmonton wins it all Sunday night, that play means as much as Jose Bautista's homer against Texas in the deciding game of the American League Divisional Series and that is nothing. All it did was get you a little more time. Take nothing away from the play because it was fantastic and it was perhaps the biggest play in the short history of the REDBLACKS, but it doesn't mean a lot if Ottawa doesn't win, It gives you something to talk about, but it didn't get you what you wanted.
-- If the CFL is going to refer to non-imports as "nationals" now, don't you think it is dumb to still have a Top Canadian award, Why not call it the Top National? Here's a better idea, just go back to calling players who aren't imports either non-imports or Canadians.
-- Congrats to Henry Burris on being named the M-O-P. Some can argue the award would have gone to Zach Collaros had he not gotten hurt, but there is no denying the numbers the 40 year old put up. He deserves it.
-- Was it really just two years ago we were still celebrating the Riders win over Hamilton in the 2013 Grey Cup. The L-P's Rob Vanstone wrote a column this week asking if the cost was worth it after what was experienced in Riderville this season, I say absolutely. I also say this season would have seen the team make the playoffs if Darian Durant and Shea Emry do not get hurt in the opening half of the season. Would they have been playing on Sunday? NO! Would Corey Chamblin and Brendan Taman still have their jobs. YES!!---at least for now. Championships are special and they don't come easy. When that chance is there, you have to take it and hope everything falls into place. The euphoria of that night for Rider Nation is one I don't think many would give up if someone was to tell them what would happen two years later.
-- Who exactly is Brock Sunderland? His name is getting more and more press over the last few days regarding the much sought after GM vacancy here. I will be honest when I say I had not heard of him until the Gary Lawless report last weekend. Talk about flying under the radar.
-- I don't know what the bottom line was for the Grey Cup in Vancouver last year, but I do know Regina's 2013 Grey Cup meant over nine million dollars for the football club. It is safe to say the Bombers will turn a tidy profit, but is it a franchise-saving profit. I can't see the Bombers being in need of money because of the TSN deal and the benefits they are getting from Investors Group Field, but the product on the field has been sub-standard and that must be having some kind of impact on their bank account.
-- Johnny Manziel = Idiot. He got help and he still doesn't want to let go of his party-boy image even though it is costing him his NFL football career. The Cleveland Browns make Manziel their starter and this is how he thanks them. Johnny Football has probably played his last snap in the NFL for quite a while and he may have played his last snap period. A couple of weeks ago, NFL Radio was talking about him and wondering if he would be a quarterback who could end up in the CFL. I think Manziel could be outstanding north of the border if he could understand the game. The problem is I don't think he is mature enough at this time to even give it a shot. Then again, maybe he would be a perfect fit for the Cowboys and they have an opening at QB now.
-- I can't decide if the Eagles or Cowboys had a worse Thanksgiving. Both were absolutely brutal.
-- The Brett Favre/Bart Starr moment was just powerful! Starr is to Green Bay what Ron Lancaster is to Saskatchewan. Legend doesn't even start to describe it.
-- I wonder how Bill Belichick would respond if someone asked him the question of players having sex before the game that is asked at Grey Cup every year. I'd love to see it happen. I am thinking Pete Carroll would love the question. Most coaches are so stone-faced these days and many give cookie-cutter answers. This isn't a question where a cookie cutter answer is given.
-- Week 12 NFL Lock of the Week -- Cardinals over 49ers (yeah, going out on a limb there)
Week 12 NFL Upset of the Week -- Broncos over Patriots
-- The David Price rumours are flying, One day it is said he wants to come back to Toronto, the next day you hear he is too expensive for them. It is the same with many other players and teams. I don't know what the Blue Jays can give Price for a maximum deal in their budget, but I would consider it because of the talent that team will possess in 2016.
-- I am guessing it isn't easy being Todd McLellan these days. If it is frustrating to watch the Oilers play, I can't imagine how frustrating it must be coaching them, I think Todd knew going in that he had a major job in front of him, and I think he sees they are close and will be better when Connor McDavid gets back, but the amount of one goal games they are losing is maddening. Of course with the effort they gave in Carolina, the Edmonton Oil Kings might have beaten them, The trade spotlight is now apparently on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. I'd be OK with that.
-- Still with the Oilers, I was shocked to hear an assist by Nail Yakupov on Wednesday night was his 100th career point and that he is the leading scorer amongst players taken in the 2012 draft. I had to go back to see who went in the first round that year and it was the year of the defenceman as guys like Morgan Reilly, Griffin Reinhart, Olli Maatta and Derrick Pouliot were taken in the first round as were Filip Forsberg, Tomas Hertl and Teuvo Teravainen.
-- It's great to see the NBA coming to Regina with its all-star tour to promote the game that will be in Toronto. There are other leagues and events that could take note of what the "Association" is doing to help grow the game in this country. The event will be here December 3-6 at various spots across the city with some clinics and a lot of other things being held.
--That's all I got. Have a great weekend! Enjoy the game!

I do not believe Yakupov is the leading scorer of the 2012 draft. See Alex Galchenyuk.
- November 27, 2015
Alex Galchenyuk was taken 3rd overall in 2012 and has 119 career points.
- November 27, 2015
Scruffy heard the same thing I did from Quinn and Remenda. They even had a graphic showing he was number one. That's a big time faux-pas by Sportsnet.
PS: The Oilers need McDavid back

"If the CFL is going to refer to non-imports as "nationals" now, don't you think it is dumb to still have a Top Canadian award, Why not call it the Top National? Here's a better idea, just go back to calling players who aren't imports either non-imports or Canadians."
Another classic by the quality writing of one Mitchell Blair. Scruff-dog, ever stop to think that a national can be someone other than a Canadian? The Aussie punter that was here a year or two ago was considered a national/non-import. Wasn't eligible to win the Top Canadian award and definitely wasn't a Canadian so would be disrespectful to him one.
Also I am pretty sure the reason to change the name along with the corresponding rule was in the case if someone had American citizenship but was raised in Canada, they would be considered a national.
Don't let the facts get in the way Scruffy!
- November 27, 2015
Can't take anything away from them, but If you really look at it the red blacks were set up by the league to succeed. They essentially had the chance to draft eight Canadian starters from day one, then given two years of prime drafting position to build.
Then they get to start free agency with an open cheque book and salary cap amount. If they weren't at least competitive in year two it would have been as much a failure as them reaching grey cup is a success.
But let's face it folks A LOT has gone right for this team to be there. Collaros goes down. Henry tries to give east final game away.
- November 27, 2015
The last minute touchdown is all Ellingson. The ball was under thrown and horribly defended. It was classic Henry. I will just throw it up and see what happens.
- November 27, 2015
Can a national win the top Canadian award then dumbass? The answer by the way is no. Don't let facts get in the way numbnutz!
- November 27, 2015
That catch by Ellingson will be remembered forever, especially if Ottawa doesn't win the GC. It's as big as the Riders knocking off Edmonton in the 89 West Final. That win to the die hard fan is as special as the 89 GC win!!
- November 27, 2015
"Can a national win the top Canadian award then dumbass? The answer by the way is no. Don't let facts get in the way numbnutz!"
Good old Scruffy, trying - and failing - to defend himself by responding anonymously. With jibberish. Classic.
- November 27, 2015
Brock Sunderland has been connected with both CFL and NFL teams. His strong suit is scouting and talent recognition, something I'm sure the Riders have no need of or interest in. His father is like a 40 year NFL scout. This guy was hired on Ottawa before they even had a team but again who needs scouting. Reading this guy's comments on the Riders job and he appears to be luke warm at best.
I sure that unless one has been stranded on an island somewhere, you know already that O'Day is going to get the job. All this other stuff is just a public relations exercise. That's how we roll in Riderland.
- November 27, 2015
I also heard the Oilers p x p guy saying Yakupov was the number one scorer from the 2012 draft. It appears as if someone who hands those guys the game notes made a mistake.
- November 27, 2015
The Scruffyhater that comes on here week after week after week has a distinct lack of testicles.
- November 27, 2015
No comments on the way Yak was hurt. That was brutal! The linesmen pulled him down causing the injury. The NHL needs to look into that.
- November 27, 2015
Very few untouchables on the cOilers, including Regina's beloved son.
They need to shakeup the culture in the room.
Only untouchables would be Drisaital, Hall, McDavid, Nurse (should still be in the AHL).
- November 27, 2015
Lack of testicles or not, it doesn't change that Mitchell Blair totally sucks.

It's more due to the fact that if the name isn't Jeremy O'Day, Saskatchewan media does't want to hear it....

Bingo Arms is showing why he is one of the biggest clowns on Rideridiots.com again. Show a little transparency Hansford. You're a joke dude.
- November 27, 2015
Mr Craig is a business man, and as an accountant he will take the cheapest way out.
- November 27, 2015
There was a recently an internal email sent out to all Oilers(Katz Group) support staff to ensure Mr. McLellan not be exposed to any sharp objects or rope like materials.
He should have probably taken a year off and picked a better spot to land (Southern US) than this greasy oily mess.
- November 27, 2015
I hate all this nastiness. Make your point without stooping to name calling.
- November 27, 2015
Completely agree on the Ellingson TD. That bought you one more week just like Bautista homer bought 6 more games. Robbie Alomar's HR against Eckersley means nothing if Toronto doesn't win World Series. No one talks about the Doug Baldwin catch at the end of last year's Super Bowl because of the interception at the end. If Seattle scores, the Baldwin catch is the reason why they win. I could go on and on and on.
Good read today Scruffdog! Don't think Ottawa wins and I don't think it will be close, but you're entitled to your opinion.
Did Obama finally wither up and go away?
- November 27, 2015
Good thing Gibson was fired or Henry would be retired instead of playing in a Grey Cup.

Kevin Wentworth, a Portsmouth native, began working at Old Ferry Landing when he was 14. He was the dishwasher.
Kevin Wentworth, a Portsmouth native, began working at Old Ferry Landing when he was 14. He was the dishwasher.
Even now, as the manager of scheduling, he does some shifts as a dishwasher.
"It takes me back to my roots," he jokes.
As head chef and kitchen manager, Kevin Wentworth still does all he can, and more.
"Ferry Landing just says summer in New England," said Wentworth. "When we open for the season, the patrons line up and it's very exciting. Everyone wants their fried clams and it's just really exciting."
Besides clams and clams and Maine shrimp, Ferry Landing is also all about lobster.
"I'm the grim reaper of lobsters," said Wentworth. "I've gotten used to it.
Wentworth has been working at Ferry Landing for the last 12 years. He's still excited, still happy to have this gig. During the winter, this local chap works as a bartender at Poco's and the Rusty Hammer.
"My older brother was the chef when I began as a dishwasher," said Wentworth. "I am the little brother who follows his big brother."
Wentworth's brother is now the general manager at Old Ferry Landing and he is the head chef. It's a team effort, a family effort, and they have lots of fun.
"I love it here," said Wentworth. "I don't see myself living anywhere else. I really love Portsmouth and being on the riverfront. Coming to work is just fun for me."
Wentworth does all the ordering for the seafood. They get their clams from the home of all things good, in Ipswich, Mass. He also manages the scheduling and designs the daily specials.
"I usually manage the broil station," said Wentworth. "One of the most popular specials is our jumbo shrimp and lobster sauté. It's really popular."
Wentworth said people really like the specials, but lots and lots come for what they want — the fried clams or the fish and chips.
It doesn't hurt that they make the coleslaw fresh every morning. It's important that it's crunchy and with only a few additives, Wentworth explained. He said it goes perfectly with seafood. Keep it simple is the guiding rule here and it pays off in spades.
A tip for home cooks is easy.
"Dip your shrimp, fish or clams into flour and then shake in a colander," said Wentworth. "Next, dip it into icy water, then into the batter of your choice. Then, fry it up!"
It's not so easy to do this at home, but it can be done. The dip in icy water seals the seafood so it can take on the batter or breadcrumbs.
"When I cook at home, I use a milk and eggs mix," said Wentworth, "but this isn't viable in a restaurant like ours. Well, I don't much cook at home."
Spoken as a real chef. When Wentworth goes out to dine. He loves The Dunaway, the Rusty Hammer and the Bratskellar.
"When my friends ask me about cooking," said Wentworth, "I always tell them to clean up as they go along so you don't hate cleaning up when the dinner is over. It's just that easy."
Wentworth says he loves coming to work every day. "It's like a family and we're all such good friends.
"Our kitchen and the wait staff is great," said Wentworth. "I'm so lucky to work in such an environment. We all love making and serving great food and we can still have fun. It's not really a job for me."
Thus said, Wentworth joked with some of the other chefs in the small kitchen. During the summer, the kitchen usually has a staff of five, but right now it's about three. The entire staff is 12.
As an interesting aside, Ferry Landing, on a busy summer day, cooks about six gallons of clams. It fries about eight to nine cases of french fries. The good kind!
"I still like french fries," says Wentworth, patting his small stomach. "They always taste good."
One reason Wentworth thinks Old Ferry Landing is such a continual success is that it serves basic, very good seafood. It doesn't dress it up to much, but lets the natural flavor of the seafood shine through.
This works.
This is why there is a line on a somewhat cloudy day in the middle of the week.
"I really love my job," said Wentworth. "I love seeing all the people and being on the waterfront. I love seeing empty plates coming back to the kitchen!"
Wentworth couldn't emphasize enough the camaraderie of the restaurant.
"Our wait staff is great and we work really well together. I think our customers know this," said Wentworth, "We are low-key dining and this is what so many people want. We give them great, simple seafood and good service."
Wentworth is an unassuming young man. He said he does not consider himself a great chef, but he may be kidding us. He knows fine dining. What he is doing at Old Ferry Landing is just as it should be. Simple, great, and wonderful seafood.
"I just have a great time cooking here," said Wentworth. "I get up every day and look forward to going into work. The Ferry is perfect for me."
Jack Blalock is a great owner and he cares so much about how well we do, said Wentworth.
"What's not to like here?"

My parents planted the lilac tree near the pine tree "since it wasn't going to make it". Isn't that a hoot...considering the pine flourished and now Dad spends quality time shaping both trees each year so they will be nice neighbors and get along, sharing the lawn between them. He is doing a wonderful job.
Back to the lilac tree...as we viewed the lilac tree I marveled at the fact of how boring and plain it appeared. I LOVE lilacs! They are so beautiful and their aroma takes over the house once cut and placed in a vase. As the breeze blows off Lake Ontario, it sends the lilacs aroma throughout the yard and into my parents house when the windows are open. One can't judge a book by its cover or a plant by its winter hibernation.
Something better and more beautiful is coming! In the weeks to come we will be blessed to watch the brown bark to being replaced with the the delicate purple lilac blossoms. Good things come to those who wait...we've waited over seventeen years for Heidi to be found - something great is coming our way! I pray for her return and justice daily and that God would be glorified through the discovery.
Have a great day! Take time to notice the changes around you...God's is removing the muck and grime to reveal the inner beauty of His creations. Thange transformation might be in a plant or it might be in a family member, friend or co-worker...just keep your eyes and heart open.
2 Corinthians 5:17 - 18
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,
the new creation has come:
'The old has gone, the new is here!
All this is from God,
who reconciled us to himself
through Christ and gave us
the ministry of reconciliation:
Have a great day! I pray you take time to attend a church service with other believers this morning ~ starting your day first with quiet prayer and home and then with some corporate worship with a Bible-based message of how the Bible still applies to our lives today. I know I will...a wonderful freedom we have in America - are you taking advantage of this? I hope so.
Note: Do you see our Christmas Tree planted in 95' for Heidi peeking and sneaking its way into the lilac? A very strong and determined tree...thank goodness we didn't give up on it and toss it in the mulch pile. We trusted and planted...God did the rest!

Through the Dark Side of the Moon
- T.S. Eliot, Choruses from the Rock
Author's Note: The first Dark Side of the Moon review I did was sort of out there. I tried to take you through a narrative journey, and in the end it failed since it provided little context. That doesn't mean I've all of a sudden done a run of the mill review. This album has been written about so much, that a standard review would frankly be boring and tedious. But what I first did, was way too experimental and out there. I sort of tried to expand the notion of what a review could be but I ended up shattering the test tubes. Let's see if this one works.
Speak To Me
It all begins with the beating of a heart, the purest and simplest sign of life. From the time we are a curled up little fetus inside our mother's womb, to the fateful time when our lives fade and we pass into the great unknown, the beating of our heart is the one constant. It's the ticking clock in our lives, and every beat is a grain of sand slipping through our fingers. Then another sound enters the picture, the clicks and ticks of machinery. Already, within the first forty seconds of the album, the central theme is subtly introduced; man versus the modern world he created, and each new soul's struggle to make their way through it. With a piercing scream and manic laughter, the journey begins.
Hypnotic guitar chords. Cryptic lyrics. What does this song mean? Here's what I got:
Open your eyes. Look at the world around you. Find your place in it. Everyone has a niche, but you better find yours quick or someone else will take your spot. Everyone needs to stake out their territory. You look to your parents with resentment and spite. You push them away. You want them to leave. But you don't want them to leave you. Being abandoned sucks. And it feels good to have someone to fall back on if we fail, and we seem to fail a lot in this life. Remember the things that matter. Look at the machines that do everything for us. What do we have that they don't? We cry, we smile, we ****, and we fight. Try to see things, see new perspectives and ways of looking at things. Stop every once in a while and look at the flowers around you. They smell pretty nice. And don't forget to get all up close to those things that interest you. Touch them, not just with your hands though! Touch lives; touch the hearts of those you care about. You will change their entire world. That's the power a human has over a machine. Just be careful though. Remember the Romans? All they wanted to do was fight and ****. They lived on excess, brought on by the hard work of their ancestors. We live on the wave of a superficial pop culture. Try to avoid the wave. But there is one thing that is the most important, above all others. Breathe.
On The Run
Footsteps crashing in an alleyway, belonging to a pour soul on the run. The crushing sounds of electronic repetition assault us. Daily, we're assaulted with advertisements that are the same, over and over again, we see images of death and war on the nightly news and we are desensitized. Desolate wind in a technological soundscape whirl in the background. I had a dream once, I was in a graveyard of technology. I walked past mounds and mounds of abandoned circuitry and wire, all the computer chips were baked dry under a brutal desert sun. The graveyard ended, and before me was a vast empty wasteland. In the distance I saw a computer, rising up from the landscape. I ran after it, the only sign of salvation in this empty world. But it never got closer. I just kept running after it. Then suddenly it was gone. I looked around, and I was alone in the wasteland. The computer was just a mirage. I thought it would be my savior, an oasis in an empty world, but it ended up being the death of me. I started laughing. What else was there to do in such a dire situation? I got my bearings and went in the direction that looked the most promising. I don't know how it ended though, since my alarm clock woke me up.
Notice the use of voices on this song. They start to get crazier, as if they can't stand the repitition anymore. How much of the same do you see everyday? I'm sure it would drive you crazy. This is why I love this album. Musically, it's excellent, and it introduces complex themes in subtle ways, using voices and other sounds from the modern world.
Someone once said that time is the universe's greatest teacher, too bad it kills all its students. Time is without a doubt the most precious commodity in any of our lives. It slips through our fingers constantly. It's also a relative thing, Einstein proved that. If any of you live in small towns, look at the people who were born there, and are now aduts and still live there. They went to school there and they probably married their High School sweethearts. This song basically talks about those people. The people who were popular in school but then wake up one day, ten years later and find themselves with a boring wife, boring kids and a boring job selling insurance back in their hometowns.
Those people had dreams. So what happened to them? They tried, and they got smacked down. It happens to all of us. You say you want to be something to your parents, and they either say it's ridiculous or they smack it down. You are told that you should get the jobs with the most money. Where is the happiness in any of these equations? Look at guys going through a mid-life crisis.
"And you run, and you run, to catch up with the sun but it's sinking. And racing around, to come up behind you again."
This reminds me of another of the 20th century's seminal pieces of art, like Dark Side of the Moon,
The Great Gatsby
by F. Scott Fitzgerald. If you haven't read it, my god, read it. It's my favorite book. It's the tragedy of chasing the past, trying to recreate something that is no longer there. Here is a passage from it, that sums up everything.
The Great Gig In The Sky
Some call this song, "The Mortality Section" or the part that deals with death. To that I sort of agree. The voice at the beginning talks about death. But to me, it isn't just that. When I hear C. Torry's vocals, inevitably, orgasm comes to mind. But in reality, there's nothing dirty about that concept alone. I think this is basically a celebration of of the extremes in life. The extreme ups, the extreme downs, because in a sense they are all connected, like ying and yang, dark and light, without one another they couldn't exist.
Due to character limits and convenience(since this is the end of the first side), the rest of the album will be reviewed in the next post.

Remember Me
The goal of Resurrection's Outreach Ministry is to reach out to those in need in our community, our country, and our world. We facilitate ways to spread God's word, help those in need, and make our community a better place.
This team is not a ministry in and of itself; we serve to promote an attitude of outreach in all we do at and through Resurrection. We work with Resurrection ministry teams and encourage each to consider and plan ways to live out God's call to help and serve others.
Past projects include:
Resurrection partners with the Christian Cupboard Emergency Food Shelf to provide help for those in need. Linda Goodno serves as Resurrection's representative on the Christian Cupboard board, while others coordinate hands-on activities, such as the Christmas Giving Tree or the March food drive as part of Minnesota Foodshare. Nonperishable food is collected at church by Sr. Life Fellowship on Food First Sunday, the first Sunday of every month. Volunteers help stock and organize the food shelves. And youth volunteer to carry groceries and/or gifts during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Those in need can call the Christian Cupboard at 651-332-9042.
Prepare and serve a meal, help with the kids program and distribute groceries with CURE Ministries at East Immanuel Lutheran Church in St. Paul. Resurrection serves the second Monday of each month. Sign up for cooking, serving, or both (youth are welcome with their parents). Questions? Contact Terri Dokken.
Help host families at Guardian Angels Catholic Church homeless shelter, Hope for the Journey Home. The shelter provides overnight housing for local families in need. Volunteers help with the kids, cook a meal or stay overnight at the facility. Families are encouraged to serve together; this is a kid friendly opportunity. To sign up contact Terri Nelson.
Sponsor a child through Compassion International.
