|Vietnam War drama in the United States spans four decades of American history, from the first theatrical discussion of the Vietnam War in 1966 with Megan Terry's Viet Rock to a provocative examination of the war's legacy in American culture with Steven Dietz's Last of the Boys (2004). However, critical studies of Vietnam War drama are few, and too often those that do exist examine Vietnam War plays without sufficient consideration of their historical moment. The historicity of the plays tends to be overshadowed in academic studies by structural or thematic interrogations, resulting in the grouping together for analysis of plays that actually respond to very different cultural contexts. Subsequently, comparisons are made among plays with similar content or structure, for example, but with decidedly dissimilar agendas and tactics, resulting in a hierarchy of artistic achievement and the marginalization of plays that have much to contribute both to America's theatrical history and to a better understanding of the ways American society at large has grappled with the Vietnam War and its aftermath.; This dissertation examines Vietnam War drama in light of each play's specific historical moment, emphasizing that it is not enough to acknowledge generally the widespread unrest of the Vietnam Era and the effect of that unrest on the creation of drama; rather, careful attention must be paid to the particular sociopolitical issues occurring as the play under examination was written and first performed because those issues influence (and in part are influenced by) the messages and techniques of the playwrights. This dissertation divides the plays by decades: the 1960s, the period of heaviest active combat; the 1970s, the war's end and immediate aftermath; and the 1980s and after, the resurgence of interest in Vietnam. Each of these periods produced plays that engaged with the Vietnam War in ways determined by their historical moment, plays that reflect, initially, the culture's concern with the immediate dangers of the war; later, the damage done to the country's self-image and reputation in the world; and finally, the difficulties experienced by returning veterans and their families. This project engages the arguments of the three key critical works dealing with Vietnam War drama: Nora M. Alter's Vietnam Protest Theatre: The Television War Onstage, J. W. Fenn's Levitating the Pentagon: Evolutions in the American Theatre of the Vietnam War Era, and Toby Silverman Zinman's "Search and Destroy: The Drama of the Vietnam War." Specific attention is paid to the issue of genre and to the relevance of Vietnam War drama in the post-Vietnam War era.

Samsung/Apple Jury Foreman's Explanation For Verdict Shows He Doesn't Understand Prior Art
from the uh-oh dept
As was discussed in the previous post, the jury initially got hung up on the question of prior art on the first patent (7,469,381 -- better known as the "bounceback patent" -- covering how when you scroll and hit the edge of a "page" the screen "bounces back.") However, in this interview, Hogan explains the "aha!" moment he had that led him to suggest to the jury that the prior art doesn't apply:
The software on the Apple side could not be placed into the processor on the prior art and vice versa. That means they are not interchangeable. That changed everything right there.You can see him say this in the video below, around the 3 minute mark:
Once again, we learn why it's silly to have juries determining patent cases.

St. Elisabeth's Episcopal Church has filed a $2 million construction loan through First Alliance Bank for 38 acres at the southeast corner of Old Brownsville and Billy Maher roads east of Austin Peay Highway. The property is adjacent to the St. Columba Episcopal Conference & Retreat Center.
St. Elisabeth's bought the acreage in 2008 for $600,000. At the time, a 1,700-square-foot vacant house was on the site at 6033 Old Brownsville. A demolition permit was issued in March 2009.
The Shelby County Assessor of Property's 2011 appraisal was $317,500.
The church, formerly on Yale Road, sold that property several years ago and moved to its current site at 2911 Elmore Park Road in Bartlett.
Memphis-based Hord Architects has designed the new building, according to the church's website.

U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Memphis, has sent a letter to a White House rules and regulations official, thanking him for his interest in Memphis' "check engine" light issue and asking him to review new regulations for the vehicle inspection program.
Cohen's letter to Cass Sunstein, administrator for the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, is in response to new rules that mean Memphians who take their cars through the annual inspection process when the "check engine" light is illuminated will fail the inspection.
Sunstein testified this month before the House Subcommittee on Courts, Commercial and Administrative Law on regulatory reform. Cohen spoke about the "check engine" light in his opening remarks.

Sales of U.S. new homes fell in February for the second straight month, a reminder that the depressed housing market remains weak despite some improvement.
The Commerce Department said Friday that new-home sales dropped 1.6 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 313,000 homes. Sales have fallen nearly 7 percent since December.
Sales were mixed across the country. They fell 2.4 percent in the Midwest and 7.2 percent in the South. They rose 8 percent in the West and 14.3 percent in the Northeast.
While a mild winter and three months of strong job growth have lifted re-sales, those conditions haven't benefited the new-home market. The current pace is less than half the 700,000 that economists consider to be healthy.
There were some positive signs in the report. The government revised December's sales figures up to show an annual rate of 336,000, the best sales pace in a year.
Though new-home sales represent less than 10 percent of the housing market, they have an outsize impact on the economy. Each home built creates an average of three jobs for a year and generates about $90,000 in tax revenue, according to the National Association of Home Builders.

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital doctor Ching-Hon Pui, is the recipient of the 2012 Pediatric Oncology Award from the American Society of Clinical Oncology. The honor recognizes Pui's contributions to better understand the biology and treatment of leukemia, as well as his role in improving leukemia survival rates.
Pui will receive the award in June at the 2012 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting in Chicago, where he'll also present a talk on the possibility of achieving total cure of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) using personalized therapy.
Pui, who joined St. Jude in 1997, is chair of the department of oncology at St. Jude; co-leader of the hospital's Hematological Malignancies Program; medical director of the St. Jude International Outreach China Program; and holder of the Fahad Nassar Al-Rashid Chair of Leukemia Research.
Pui is credited for innovations that have driven cure rates for pediatric leukemia to unprecedented heights. By implementing pharmacodynamics and pharmacogenetics to individualize chemotherapy and optimize the use of existing drugs, Pui and his colleagues have achieved cure rates of 90 percent at St. Jude for pediatric ALL, the most common childhood cancer.

Americans have pumped less gas every week for the past year.
During those 52 weeks, gasoline consumption dropped by 4.2 billion gallons, or 3 percent, according to MasterCard SpendingPulse. The decline is the longest since a 51-week period during the recession.
The main reason: higher gas prices. The national average for a gallon of gas is $3.88, the highest ever for this time of year, and experts say it could be $4.25 by late April. As a result, Americans are taking fewer trips. When they take a vacation, they're staying closer to home.
But the decline in gas consumption is also a sign that efforts to push car makers to produce vehicles with better gas mileage are paying off. The average new car now gets nearly 24 miles to the gallon, compared with about 20 mpg just four years ago, according to the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute.
European Wax Center has opened in Erin Way Shopping Center, 4856 Poplar Ave.
Local franchisees Libsey and Scot James are Germantown residents who plan to expand European Wax Center in the Memphis area past the East Memphis location. As regional developers, they own the rights to the entire state of Tennessee.
The Jameses say the company's proprietary Comfort Wax formula, coupled with its four-step Comfort Wax hair-removal system, is a major driver of its success.

The Drudgery
by Christie Kelley
Happy Saturday. Or is it? While you are all sitting at your computers, maybe sipping some nice hot coffee, I'm doing the Saturday routine. Cleaning the house, laundry, and yard work. Okay, not yard work.
And yet yard work is what should be doing. I had planned on finally mowing my lawn since my new mower arrived on Monday.
Had is the key word.
I finally opened up the box last night only to discover that one of the wheels was broken in shipment. Normally, I wouldn't be too upset over another week of not mowing. But if you haven't heard, we've had a little rain on the East Coast lately (little as in 15 or so inches). My grass is now up to my calves. I'm afraid to think about how high it's going to be by the time they send out the new wheel. Really, I'm afraid of what might be lurking in the tall grass.
So instead of being outside on this beautiful almost fall day, I'll be inside dusting and vacuuming. In a word...yuck! Actually, the dusting and vacuuming I don't mind too much, it's the bathroom cleaning I can do without. (and yet, can't).
Laundry, I'm okay with. It's not really all that difficult. Besides, I get to relax in front of the TV for a while as I fold the clean clothes.
Cleaning the kitchen seems to take the longest and yet I get the most satisfaction out of that room being finished.
I have discovered that having two kittens only makes the entire process of cleaning the house take so much longer. They want to be with me while I'm using all the harsh chemicals in the bathrooms. So now I have to close the door to keep them out and me locked inside with the fumes. No bathroom fan can handle that. Or they decide that once I finish mopping they should walk across the damp floor, leaving little kitty footprints everywhere.
(sigh). Good thing they're cute!
So hope about you? Is Saturday your day for chores? Which ones do you mind the least...the most? Anyone have a house cleaner (I so wish I did)?
And weren't we supposed to have Rosie the robot cleaners by now?

Congrats on the GR, Helen.
Hi Christie,
I don't mind doing laundry, scrubbing the sink and tub, but I don't like sweeping and mopping.
- September 17, 2011 at 1:08 AM
- Helen said...
Blogger ate my post LOL The GR knows I have chocolate here so he wanted to stay
I do my housework on Saturdays as well I don't mind the laundry but really don't like doing the bathroom although I have done it today and the rest I have got done slowly. I pay someone to do the yard for me now it was all too much so Alex comes and does that about every 3 weeks and I get inside done with a little help from Hubby LOL.
I would so love to have a house cleaner Rosie would be great
Have Fun

Hey, Helen, you must be feeding him too many Tim Tams. And how close was Jane to snatching him? Wow!
Christie, I had to giggle. I've had a house clean today too. Must have been something in the air. It really was a mess and I must say I love it when it's clean. I just don't like the process of getting it that way (it's a bit like I like having written but I'm not so keen on writing!). Kitties sound cute!

well done Helen... glad you bought him down for a cuppa ....
I generally go out sewing on a Saturday but mean as I am retired I can do the housework when I feel like it......hubby does the garden..... I don't have a set day.... that is the hard part with retirement ...no routine LOL

My day for chores is Thursday. I clean the house from top to bottom, leaving me Friday to do the grocery shopping & then the weekend is all MINE!!!

Congrats on the GR, Helen!
I'm going to be cleaning and filing and doing the laudry. The hardest part is going to be trying to figure out what to do with all my books since I need to straighten out the book shelves. In a box in the garage temporarily?

Aloha! My kids bowl on Saturday mornings (and hubby is their coach) so it is three hours "free for me"!
I let the dust bunnies duel and the weeds run wild - it's Hawaii!

- Deb said...
Helen, put that GR to work! He can give you a break today. :)
Saturdays are my running-around-catch-up days. I usually run to the store and do other errands. But, when school is in session, it is the day I do everything around the house (should do everything). Sure, I could throw laundry in during the week and do one load or so midweek, but it's just easier to do it all on a Saturday sometimes.
Rosie didn't seem like a robot, did she? She always had that human element to her, especially with Leroy.
Have a good Saturday, Banditas and Buddies!

Jane, the biggest issues I have with mopping is it makes my back hurt. I need to figure out a way of mopping without putting too much of my back into it.
- September 17, 2011 at 8:46 AM
- Christie Kelley said...
Helen, I'm so ready for Rosie to come over. I usually find that I do a bigger cleaning every other week so this week is just a touch up. Although, I have to get my son to clean his bathroom. I don't want to even step in there.
- September 17, 2011 at 8:49 AM
- Christie Kelley said...
Anna, as I just told Helen, thankfully the house isn't a big mess today. Just a quick dust, vacuum and mop. Maybe a quick once over in the bathrooms. But I'm really tired of looking at my lawn. I wish I knew someone who did lawn mowing. I'd pay someone today to get it done.

Barb, someday is all I can say. Someday, I'll be retired too. I hope! The way the economy has been, I'm not so sure some days.
- September 17, 2011 at 8:52 AM
- Christie Kelley said...
Marybelle, you're good that you can get it all done in one day. There's a lot of times I'll do the upstairs Saturday and the downstairs Sunday (The downstairs is just the big family room and laundry area).
- September 17, 2011 at 8:53 AM
- Christie Kelley said...
Sharee, my office is my biggest mess right now. I moved it two months ago and I haven't really put everything where it needs to go. But I'll work on that another day. I have a hair appt and might take my son to a movie later.
- September 17, 2011 at 8:55 AM
- Christie Kelley said...
Kim, the weeds have run a little too wild too long at my house. Know anyone out this way that will cut it :)
- September 17, 2011 at 8:55 AM
- Christie Kelley said...
Barb, I love your "should do" comment. That's where I am to day. I should do more cleaning but now I'm stuck cleaning upstairs because my 14 yr old had a friend sleepover last night. I think the vacuum is going to wake them up really soon.
- September 17, 2011 at 8:57 AM
- Gannon Carr said...
Christie, I really wish I had Rosie the robot!
I don't usually save cleaning for Saturday. With two dogs and a cat, I have to vacuum constantly. Same with dusting. Laundry is a never ending chore in this house. It breeds when I'm sleeping, I'm certain of it!
Bathrooms are my least favorite chore, too, but you gotta do it.
If anyone finds a Rosie the robot, please send her my way.
- September 17, 2011 at 10:00 AM
- Christie Kelley said...
Gannon, I'll let you have Rosie as long as you send her up here when you're done.
I hear you about the laundry. How is it that overnight it can double. I just have figured it out. Plus I have boys. I still have to tell my 14 yr old to change his clothes.
- September 17, 2011 at 10:20 AM
- hrdwrkdmom aka Dianna said...
Christie, I have a 21 year old and have to tell him to change from the skin out and oh by the way? take a shower and wash your hair before you change. I keep telling him water won't wash the pretty off but apparently he doesn't believe me.
My lawn is out of control too, the mower works but something happened to the weed eater so even when I mow you can't tell it. Guess I could get the kitchen shears and have at it at least in the front but, no, not going to happen.
Rosie would work for me but I don't see that happening in the near and not even in the far future. I need to clean my fridge out and it has to be done today, it is getting scary in there.

I do my cleaning in pieces...vaccum one day, dust another etc and so on.
OCCASIONALLY, I'll do all of one area and that is a red letter day.
Vacumming is a bit more challenging not so much because the kitties get in my way but the amt of TOYS I have to pick up to get it done.
All of this morning's plans were dereailed in a 30 min. futile attempt to get Binky the stray lined up for a vet/humane society trip. She showed back up this morning all friendly and I got her into a carrier while I made calls....only to find she'd taken the plastic door OFF the hinges and trotted back up to the deck!
Then ran off to look at my neighbors...
I don't mind laundry BUT...I have to go up and down basement steps to do it....ugh

Helen, you got him again!
Make the GR do the cleaning. *grin* He's gotta earn his Tim Tams.
- September 17, 2011 at 12:36 PM
- Cassondra said...
Saturday is my day for laundry and now, any cleaning I do. Monday used to be my cleaning day, and I loved that. But now it seems like Mondays are always too crazy busy. I work from home, and can set my own hours to a degree, but some work has to be done RIGHT THEN, and seems like lately, it's been Mondays.
And some weeks the house just doesn't get cleaned. Except for the bathroom. I can't stand to let that go. Blech.
- September 17, 2011 at 12:37 PM
- Christie Kelley said...
Dianna...21 yr old? Really? From the my now 19 yr was in 7th grade I never had to tell him to take a shower. I keep assuming my 14 yr old will out grown this. Now, I'm not so sure....
- September 17, 2011 at 12:38 PM
- Christie Kelley said...
OMG, Joanie...I can just picture Binky doing that! It must have been so funny, well maybe not for you but it makes a good story.
- September 17, 2011 at 12:39 PM
- Christie Kelley said...
Cassondra, I hate to let the bathrooms go too. It just seems to then take so much longer to clean them the next time.
- September 17, 2011 at 12:40 PM
- Joan said...
Well, I'd heard her banging around in the carrier out in the garage...I mean BANGING but didn't think that this would happen.
It looked like a prison break.
At least I know she's ok. I had a scare yesterday seeing a similar marked cat in the road :(

Helen, congrats on the rooster! Sorry about Blogger. We have problems with it from time to time, and they're always annoying.

- Nancy said...
Christie, Saturday was the day for chores when I was growing up. The dh and I are very bad about anything resembling housekeeping. We mostly dust, vacuum, etc., when we're expecting company.
I least object to washing dishes. We have a dishwasher but use it only when we have guests. The rest of the time, we generate so few dishes, it seems like a waste to run it. Despite the claims of various manufacturers, we don't trust it to get clean food that's been drying a day or two, and if you have to wash the dish in the first place, why not just get it clean and call it done?
I can zone out washing dishes. I can't do that so much with other chores.
- September 17, 2011 at 1:48 PM
- jo robertson said...
Barb's right. When you're retired, any day can be cleaning day. I tend to divide and conquer so it's not a big chore on one day. And, of course, with three grown men in the house, I've learned to delegate. Hee hee!
- September 17, 2011 at 2:14 PM
- Landra said...
Well, normally my cleaning day is Saturday. Lately with writing the kids and hubby have been taking over the duty Friday afternoons.
I'm thankful for the help, but have a few little irks when they clean.
I'm not going to complain if I don't have to do it. Bathroom scrubbing is also fine by me. I like a clean bathroom. Sometimes the labor really allows my mind to wander creatively.
Congrats on the GR Helen.

Oh, the kittens are so cute!! I have one with long hair that makes more work than all others but they're worth it lol. I hate house cleaning. It is my mother's favorite thing to do and always has been. My sister is more like her. I took more after my aunt who'd rather cook than clean lol. Laundry doesn't bother me for some reason but everything else does!!

I tend to scatter my cleaning throughout the week, unless we're going to have company and then I turn into a crazy cleaning machine.
- September 17, 2011 at 4:54 PM
- Christie Kelley said...
Nancy, I like washing dishes too. I should say, I like to when I have a sink that faces a window. My current sink faces the dining area. I tend to use the dishwasher and just wash the pans.
- September 17, 2011 at 5:10 PM
- Christie Kelley said...
Jo, I definitely need to delegate more. I just arrived home from the movies and haven't check to see if my oldest cleaned his bathroom. I'm taking any wagers on that one.
- September 17, 2011 at 5:11 PM

Landra, I agree about the monotonous tasks of cleaning can make your creativity soar. I feel like about painting (walls, not pictures).

catslady, thanks about the kitties. They are so sweet! My mom loves to fold laundry. I don't mind it but if she's visiting, she insists (and she's so darn good at it)

Hi Christie, fun post! Well, except for the cleaning / laundry / mopping parts. LOL
Like some others, I try to spread things out during the week. And I have a Roomba! I love my Roomba. It's a robotic vacuum cleaner and it works great. Except, you know, it doesn't dust or clean the bathroom or change the sheets. But it's probably the closest we'll get to Rosie for a while. :-)
Helen, way to snatch that Tim-Tam mooching bird! Hope he helps you with some of the cleaning today!

Kate, when my vacuum dies, I'll probably look at the Roomba. I've heard great things about them.

Christie, our sink is under a window facing the back yard. The view suits me better for zoning out than facing a wall, as I did in three of my four apartments.

You know you can do most of you cleaning with just vinegar & baking soda... check out green cleaning.. and it's sooooo much cheaper!!

Nancy, this is the first place I've had where my sink doesn't face a window. I can kind of see out my sliders but not really well.

Dear God, Christie, Let's not talk cleaning!! AGGHHH!!! I've been in purge and clean mode on every day off since the middle of August. Yep, trying to keep from becoming and upcoming episode of HOARDERS!
See, my sister and neice are coming to visit on Thursday. It's been 3 years since we saw them down here. All the kids, Significant Others and grandbabies will be coming to my house for 6 days to visit.
So, you name a cleaning chore and YEP, I'm doing that this weekend!!

My week-ends are definitely not restful for me. Today, after breakfast I started yard work and didn't get finished until after lunch time (still not finished), and then I had to go grocery shopping for 2 hours. Then I cooked dinner and cut up melons. I was on my feet all day! I can see why I got a migraine last Sunday - it was my body's way of telling me to just stay in bed! :D

In my son's defense, he is autistic and just doesn't get the whole cleanliness thing. Once upon a time I could just put him in the tub but now all I can do is nag until he gets in there himself. All I can once he gets there is hope he is doing it right and not just getting wet and getting out. I have washed his hair many times after he comes out of the shower so who knows? Frustration is my middle name

Walls of Tile in the Kitchen
Why have a backsplash when you can have a full wall of tile? Here are ten kitchens where large swathes of tile have a big impact.
Extending tile from the floor or countertop to the ceiling can add big texture, color, and pattern to a kitchen. On a full wall, classic white subway tile becomes more dramatic (image 10), and cement tiles emulate the look of wallpaper with great durability (image 5).

Published January 13, 2015
(SportsNetwork.com) - With a chance to match the longest road winning streak in club history, the New York Rangers instead struggled on both ends of the ice in a shutout loss.
The Rangers look to rebound on their road trip Wednesday night as they visit the Florida Panthers, who try to win two in a row for only the second time this season.
New York began this five-game trip with victories in Dallas and Nashville, pushing its overall road winning streak to six straight games, the longest for the club since a six-gamer from Jan. 19-March 2, 2006.
Aiming to extend that run on Monday, the Rangers were instead blanked 5-0 by the Tampa Bay Lightning. It was a perfect storm for New York, which was held without a goal for the fifth time this season while also seeing a string of 16 straight games of allowing three goals or fewer snapped.
Henrik Lundqvist gave up four goals on 22 shots and was lifted after the second period. Cam Talbot, who had won both of his previous starts by way of a shutout, gave up a goal with 1:01 to play, snapping his scoreless streak at 165 minutes and 27 seconds.
"We didn't play that bad," said Lundqvist. "We made a few mistakes and paid for it. I wasn't able to come up with the saves."
New York, which ends its trip on Friday in Boston, is expected to start Lundqvist again tonight. He is 16-9-1 with a 1.78 goals against average and five shutouts in 26 previous meetings with the Panthers.
That includes a 4-3 victory at home on Nov. 10, when Lundqvist stopped 24 of the 27 shots he faced. Brad Richards and Mats Zuccarello each scored in the third period to power the Rangers to their fifth victory in their last seven versus the Panthers.
New York has lost three of its last four in Sunrise.
Coming off a 2-2-1 road trip, the Panthers kicked off a five-game homestand with Monday's 3-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. Tim Thomas made 38 saves and Sean Bergenheim scored twice for his first goals since April 24, 2012 during the Eastern Conference quarterfinals.
Erik Gudbranson added a goal and an assist for the Panthers, who have only won two in a row one other time this season. They did so on Nov. 16 and 19, picking up road wins in Colorado and Vancouver.
Florida was in danger of falling behind against Philadelphia as it was down two men early in the second period after a scoreless opening frame. However, the Panthers killed off the penalties and then got a goal from Bergenheim shortly after to grab momentum.
"That was really big killing off that power play," said Thomas. "We've been working on that because we know how huge special teams are, and it helped us win the game."
Thomas is likely to start tonight and is 5-10-3 with a 2.77 GAA in his career when facing the Rangers. He took the loss on Nov. 10, allowing four goals on 29 shots faced.

By all accounts, it was a typical Monday morning. That was until I met Mustang Sally.
Departing from an interview in Providence, I took my usual route down Warwick Avenue to stop at a favorite Dunkin Donuts. With my left turn signal blinking, I waited for a gap in traffic. Seeing a clearing, I began to turn into the parking lot. Though I had checked to see if any cars were approaching, I hadn't thought to look for any meandering dogs.
It was to my great surprise I saw a small beagle making its way down the sidewalk. I laid on my horn, hoping it wouldn't dart out into the buzzing traffic on Warwick Avenue. To my relief, she continued her path in front of my slowed car and stayed on the concrete.
I waited for her to pass and pulled into the Dunkin Donuts parking lot, slamming on my breaks and shifting hard into park.
I leapt out of my still-running car and hurried over to the beagle. She was sniffing the ground fervently. She also wasn't wearing a collar or identifying tags. Definitely lost, I thought.
Being a volunteer at an animal shelter, I'm accustomed to dealing with strange animals. I know the warning signs (a tail curled between the legs, hair standing up on end) and saw none of them with this particular dog.
I lowered a hand to the beagle and let it sniff. It seemed ambivalent about my presence and began to continue down the sidewalk. I knew I couldn't let it go much further. Cars rushed past. My heart was pounding.
Taking my chances, I scooped the beagle into my arms. Again, it didn't seem to care. Walking back to my car, I scanned the landscape, hoping for a sign of someone that was frantically waving a collar and leash and yelling for their dog. No luck.
Then a woman came running.
"Is that your dog?" she asked.
"No, is it yours?" I replied.
"No," she said.
We both looked dejected, she too had seen the dog running and didn't know how to catch it. We tried to give the beagle a drink of water from the woman's water bottle to no avail and decided I should just take the dog in my car and call animal control. The woman was grateful I had caught the beagle and that the dog was now safe.
I called the Warwick Animal Shelter and they told me to bring the dog in. But I couldn't just let it go that easily.
Together, we went through the Dunkin Donuts drive-through. The beagle, which I soon realized was a girl, got a bottle of water. I got an iced coffee. She was good in the car – tail wagging, pink tongue dangling – but she knew she wasn't where she was supposed to be.
Once we both had our drinks, we headed to the shelter. On the way I began tossing out names, seeing if her ears would perk up to any one in particular.
"Lucy? Daisy? Sally?" I said. None of them elicited any notable response, but the last one seemed to fit.
"Mustang Sally," I sung. "You've been running all over town." The panting continued and the tail wagged as she listened to my tune, deep brown eyes fixed on my face. I was already getting attached.
We arrived at the shelter and I carefully opened the car door, making sure Sally didn't bolt. I scooped her up again and we walked inside.
Within minutes the shelter had my name and phone number and Sally was on a leash. Before I knew it, she was whisked away. No goodbye, no parting lick of the face. I watched as her tail wagged down the hall.
When I got back to the office, I tweeted her picture and posted it on Facebook. Within two hours, her photo had been shared hundreds of times. People were concerned about Sally.
And then, someone wrote that Sally was their neighbor's dog and her owners had picked her up. A call to the shelter confirmed that Sally had indeed gone home to her rightful owners. They lived on Arthur Street in Warwick and Sally had been missing since early in the morning.
I was happy she made it back home so quickly, but the smudge marks from her wet nose on my car windows still give me a sad little pang. In the half hour we spent together, I got attached to the little beagle.
It made my day to know I may have saved Sally's life and that so many other people on Facebook and Twitter were just as concerned about her as I was.
I hung up the phone with the shelter with a smile. Then my mind wandered – I should have asked them what her real name was. But then again, I don't really need to know. Mustang Sally was fine by me.
I love dogs.

Rumeli and how the Balkans became the Balkans
Mark Mazower is one of the best historians of the Balkans. He has written about Greece especially and we have featured his book on Salonica here. In 2000 he published a short book on the whole region which is divided into four sections: The Land and its Inhabitants, Before the Nation, Eastern Question and Building the Nation. This book is a great short introduction and it is full of facts and ideas that will come as a surprise even to those who think they know the region. For example it was only about one hundred years ago that it really began to be called "The Balkans". Before that it was more popularly known as "Turkey in Europe", a name which, with the Balkan War of 1912, finally became utterly obsolete as the Turks were driven back almost to the gates of Constantinople.
At the end of the twentieth century, people spoke as if the Balkans had existed forever. Two hundred years earlier, they had not yet come into being. It was not the Balkans but "Rumeli" that the Ottoman's ruled, the formerly "Roman lands" that they had conquered from Byzantium. The Sultan's educated Christian Orthodox subjects referred to themselves as "Romans" ("Romaioi"), or more simply as "Christians". To Westerners, familiar with classical regional terms such as Macedonia, Epirus, Dacia and Moesia, the term "Balkan" conveyed little. "My expectations were raised", wrote one traveller in 1854, "by hearing that we were about to cross a Balkan; but I later discovered before long that this high-sounding title denotes only a ridge which divides the waters, or a mountain pass, without it being a necessary consequence that it offer grand or romantic scenery.
"Balkan" was initially a name applied to the mountain range better known to the classically trained Western traveller as "ancient Haemus", passed en route from central Europe to Constantinople. In the early nineteenth century, army officers like the Earl of Albermarle, explored its little-known slopes. "The interior of the Balcan", wrote a Prussian diplomat who crossed it in 1833, "has been little explored, and but a few, accurate measurements of elevation have been undertaken."
Later Mazower notes:
Through the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, "Turkey in Europe" was the favoured geographical coin of the day. But by the 1880s, the days of "Turkey in Europe" were evidently numbered. Successor states Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, Romania and Montenegro had emerged during the nineteenth century as contenders to carve up what remained. Between 1878 and 1908, diplomatic conferences whittled away Ottoman territory, and subjected what remained to Great Power oversight. Western travellers, journalists and propagandists flocked to the region and popularised the new, broader use of the term "Balkans". By the time of the outbreak of the First Balkan War in 1912 which ended Ottoman rule in Europe (outside the immediate hinterland of Constantinople), it had become common currency. Purists were annoyed. One German geographer talked crossly of "the southeast European or as people increasingly say the Balkan peninsula." A Bulgarian expert complained about "this region… [being] wrongly called the Balkan peninsula". But the tide was against such pedantry. In less than half a century, largely as a result of sudden military and diplomatic changes, a new geographical concept rooted itself in everyday parlance. By 1917, a standard history of the Eastern Question talked about the "lands which the geographers of the last generation described as 'Turkey in Europe' but for which political changes have compelled us to seek a new name, The name generally given to that segment is 'The Balkan Peninsula', or simply, "The Balkans".

Update, I checked the old master cyl. which had been working fine with the drum brakes and it has no check vavles in the outlets. How can that be? I thought all drum systems had them. Pat
I figured someone along the way must have converted it to power brakes, and not put the push rod in the proper hole.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- An indebted property division of Dubai World behind plans to dig a massive canal through the Dubai desert says it has completed a deal to rework the terms on $1.2 billion of loans.
The company, Limitless, said on Thursday that with the debt restructuring deal signed, it will soon shift its ownership to the Dubai government rather than remain part of state conglomerate Dubai World.
Limitless was originally supposed to repay the debt in March 2010.
The company operates properties near Dubai's Jebel Ali port and is working on projects in Saudi Arabia, Russia and Vietnam. Its plans for an ambitious, 75 kilometer- (47 mile-) canal in Dubai are on hold.
Limitless' parent Dubai World signed a deal to restructure $25 billion last year. Limitless was excluded from that process.

The problem comes if somebody sends an email to "[email protected]", the alias works and it tries to forward it to the example.com, but because [email protected] doesn't exist (and I don't want it to exist!) it causes maildrop to get angry: Code: E29691036B1 2732 Sun Apr 15 18:14:59 [email protected] (temporary failure. Command output: ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: Permission denied /usr/bin/maildrop: Unable to create a dot-lock at /var/vmail/example.com/fred/10677.0.vhost.) [email protected] Is there a simple solution to this, should I be creating a dummy catch-all to drop the mail or something, ideally I want these emails bounced with invalid recipient. Thanks in advance.

More hazing victims uncovered
BLACKFOOT, Idaho (AP) — Police say more possible hazing victims have come forward after five former Blackfoot High School athletes were charged earlier this month.
Blackfoot Police Chief Moore says more charges are pending, but declined to say what they are or against whom they would be filed.

Dear Annie: I have been with "John" for more than 10 years. We have children together. I have reached the point in my life that I wish to be married. I never wanted to be a girlfriend forever, and he knew this from the beginning.
Dear Annie: Two years ago, my son's fiancee recommended we rotate who hosts Christmas dinner. That year, she and my son went to her mom's house, and last year they were supposed to come to mine. Instead, they went to her mom's again and were upset that I didn't want to tag along.
Annie, at the time, my 73-year-old mother was in a rehab facility.
Dear Annie: Normally I'm good at minding my own business, but when I see how my granddaughter, "Susie," manipulates her mother (my daughter), I feel the urge to say something.
Dear Annie: My parents have been divorced for 30 years. Both made mistakes when they were married, but the end was due to my mom's drinking. Dad provided for me and now takes an active role in his grandchildren's lives, always making an effort to show up for their events.
Dear Annie: I was diagnosed with depression more than 20 years ago. When I was in high school, I was hospitalized for close to a year. Because money and insurance have been sporadic, I have been on and off of medication. Plus, once I get on a good medication, I start feeling that I don't need it anymore. Last year, my husband lost his job, so I have no insurance and have been off of medication since.
Dear Annie: My husband and I lived with a very dysfunctional situation for several years. His children from a prior marriage were encouraged by their mother to tell falsehoods about our home life. She was planning to leave the state and needed full custody in order to take them, and she ultimately accomplished this.
Dear Annie: I have been dating "Stan" for five years. We are both in our 60s. When we started dating, I was absolutely certain that I did not want to get married. But Stan and I have been through so much these past few years with various illnesses and the like. We have always stood by each other, and I have come to realize that I would like to be married to this man and have said so to him.
Dear Annie: My incredible husband of two years has a 4-year-old daughter with his ex-wife. I have actively helped raise "Christie" since she was barely a year.
Dear Annie: When my husband and I travel, we often spend a couple of days with friends or family. One night during our stay, we usually go out to dinner. There always seems to be a small verbal battle over who is going to pay the bill.
Dear Annie: My wife and I have a wonderful 3-year-old son. We have a great home and make good money, but life stinks.
Dear Annie: I was married to my husband for 31 years. Two years ago, he was killed in an accident. I loved him to the moon and back and miss him terribly.
Dear Annie: My cousin "Tyler," who had a host of problems as a teenager, became a policeman at age 23. He was a jerk before he joined up, but now he's become a bigger jerk.
Dear Annie: Recently, my husband mentioned that he wanted to get together with some friends for a project. I encouraged him to invite the guys to our home to work on it. I thought it would be a few hours, but it ended up taking well over 12. They arrived early in the morning and stayed until late that night, taking over our living room.
Dear Annie: When my older sister was dying a year ago, our entire family supported her with calls and visits with the exception of our father and half-brother (my mother's son from a previous marriage). They also didn't attend the funeral and offered no explanation for their absence.
Dear Annie: I am 17 years old, and I have a younger sister who is 13. Her attitude is awful. I have to drive her to school every day, and we always get into fights. She constantly criticizes my driving and puts me down. She also calls me a lot of names and says hurtful things. We even got into a physical fight.

Shakespeare throws caution to the wind in "Cymbeline," a late romance so fantastically convoluted that the characters themselves can't help expressing disbelief at what occurs. The plot, a stuffed sausage of Shakespearean story lines, positively defies summary.
Contemporary directors of an adventurous bent have been drawn to Shakespeare's self-parodying frolic, in which anything can happen and just about does. The dead rise, a head gets lopped off, a father and his children are miraculously reunited and lovers overcome the terrible obstacles thrust in their way, to make the "gift/ the more delayed, delighted."
One production I saw transplanted "Cymbeline" to the wild West; another staged it inside a magical diorama. Fiasco Theater's revival of "Cymbeline," well received when it played off-Broadway and now at the Broad Stage through Dec. 23, relishes the play's storytelling delirium.
PHOTOS: Best in theater for 2012 | Charles McNulty
Performed by a compact cast of six, the production — conceived by three of the performers: Jessie Austrian, Noah Brody and Ben Steinfeld — brought to mind the touring "Hamlet" from Shakespeare's Globe that was recently at the Broad. Both offerings employ small, versatile ensembles, in which the actors hotfoot from one role to the next in a celebration of the art of theater-making.
The cockeyed ancient Britain fantasy world of "Cymbeline" is more susceptible to the let's-put-on-a-show high jinks than dank, dark Denmark, where the tragic stakes are absurdly high. But audiences have to be willing to go along for the ride, and the cyclonic nature of this tale should carry a whiplash warning for theatergoers.
Personally, I like my Shakespeare productions richly inhabited by actors who can turn poetic language into psychological lightning bolts. Depth is preferable to spryness. Not that the two are mutually exclusive, but they don't coincide as often as one would like. Insouciance occasionally gives way to gravity in this "Cymbeline," but it's hard to invest in a story that wears its implausibility on its sleeve.
The finest moments of the production, directed by Brody and Steinfeld, are when Steinfeld takes command of the stage. Among his multiple roles, he plays the villainous Iachimo, who wages a bet with the banished Posthumus (Brody) over the virtue of Posthumus' wife, Imogen (Austrian), daughter of King Cymbeline (Andy Grotelueschen).
Before Iachimo sneaks into Imogen's bedchamber to gather false evidence of her infidelity, he says in an aside, "Boldness be my friend/ Arm me, audacity, from head to foot …" — words that sum up the spirit of Shakespeare's undertaking. The melodrama is perpetually daring itself to new debauched heights, and Steinfeld has a way of cajoling us along with a conspiratorial wink and seductive smile.
PHOTOS: Arts and culture in pictures by The Times
Austrian balances Imogen's pertness and delicacy effectively enough, though I wish Brody's Posthumus would have strained less for emotional emphasis. In general, the cast, which also includes Paul L. Coffey and Emily Young, aims for frolicsome extravagance in a play in which the good are very good and the bad are awful.
The staging is appropriately spare but makes full use of its scenic elements, including a trunk large enough to hold a headless body. Suffice it to say that the gaily handled decapitation business becomes one of the production's funnier gags.
Fiasco seems determined to draw us into the fabulist fun, but the theatrical horseplay muddles the storytelling at times. Near the end, as Shakespeare shamelessly sorts out his tangle of plots, the confusion is compounded by the way the performers keep switching between roles. Maybe the program ought to have included a flow chart?
Fortunately, there's the music of Shakespeare's language to fall back on. "The crickets sing, and man's o'erlabor'd sense/ Repairs itself by rest" has to be one of the most exquisite descriptions of sleep ever written. And then, of course, the play includes what is considered the finest song in all of Shakespeare, the one that darkly begins "Fear no more the heat o' th' sun."
"Cymbeline" has no business being on anyone's top 10 Shakespeare list, but it has its glories — most of them outlandish, though a few that are breathtakingly refined. Fiasco's revival gives us a fair glimpse of both.

Thank's for those who correct me The north star is in Ursa minor constellation (not major) and for the half a degree or one error from the real north pole but as stated we can live with it and i should wrote also to be able to confirm the north with a GPS you should move away from your point towards Polaris this way your GPS will show you a direction pointing to the star. As my main topic was about not loosing the north... that's the minimum i can wished you all in 2008. I am not too sure if wishing an Happy New Year is still relevant? Should we wished us all a better new year instead? In french we wished us good and happy new year (freely translated) a bit more realistic but lets say the goals are the same only the means differs. Here is some help to understand the North Star. Today the Earth's axis points within one degree of Polaris, the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor (also called the Little Bear or the Little Dipper). Polaris appears to be in a fixed position in the sky throughout the year. All other stars and constellations seem to revolve around the North Star. In the case of the earth, precession is caused by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon. The earth's axis makes one complete rotation over the course of approximately 26,000 years. If you trace the path of the axis in the sky, you will find that Polaris, Vega, Thuban, and Alpha Cephei all fall on or very close to it. So when the earth's axis is at a point on the path near Vega, Vega becomes the North Star while Thuban is the North Star when the axis is near it on the path. Five thousand years ago, Thuban was the North Star. Five thousand years from now, the North Star will be Alpha Cephei. Seven thousand years after that, it will be Vega. Nine thousand years after that, Thuban will be the North Star again. At these dates, the various stars will be at the closest to absolute north. For some time before, the relevant star will be approaching due north and it will be receding for some time after the time listed. In these interim times, the North Star is whichever star is closest to north. "-" P.S. The North pole cap is melting too...just a reminder when you will give your new year wishes! As i said don't loose the North ;) Luc Leblanc VE2DWE Skype VE2DWE www.qsl.net/ve2dwe WAC BASIC CW PHONE SATELLITE _______________________________________________ Sent via firstname.lastname@example.com.

Cole had looked set to leave Stamford Bridge in the summer, with Paris Saint-Germain widely tipped as a possible destination, but he has now extended his stay in west London.
|Chelsea are 13/2 with Bet365 to win the Europa League
"I am pleased I will be starting my eighth season at Chelsea," Cole told the club's official website. "I have great memories here and I enjoy coming to training every day. The staff are amazing and I enjoy training with the lads.
"I have been able to fulfil nearly all my ambitions at Chelsea.
"I have won the Champions League, the League, I have won FA Cups here but of course you don't want to stop winning trophies and being at a big club, you are always fighting to win a trophy.
"Being here for seven years and being at Arsenal before that playing for trophies, you never lose that hunger.
"I wanted to stay at Chelsea because we are always fighting and challenging for trophies. That desire and the will to want to win things have not gone."
Chelsea's decision to renew Cole's contract is not thought to have any bearing on fellow veteran Frank Lampard's future, with the midfielder still looking almost certain to leave Stamford Bridge in the summer.

Tall Ships & Tropical Diseases (Greenwich)
Greenwich, the 'green port', is London at its most graceful. Quirks of geography – the sublime, sheltering curve of Greenwich Hill, the flat riverside terrace, the power and depth of the river at this point – made it a perfect place for a maritime settlement. And its distance from the medieval city made Greenwich a haven for aristocrats and merchants seeking to escape from London's squalor and delinquency: for centuries this isolated village was home to palaces, mansions and monasteries. But as Britain extended her global reach through trade, conquest and exploration, and as the city grew outwards, so Greenwich took on a new role as London's window on the world, the oracle of global time and a notorious hotspot for spies, saboteurs and pleasure-seekers. Join us for a walk around this exotic entrepot – half port, half palace – and get a rare breath of London's historic sea air.

Bedbugs: Old Problem Resurfaces in RV Parks
February 28, 2011 by Leanne Phillips 1 Comment
Who could have believed a few years ago that one of the better attended seminars at Kampground of America Inc.'s (KOA) International Convention in Savannah in November would have addressed the squeamish topic of bedbugs?
It's a problem that had receded along with the World War II generation, but has again reared its ugly little head in a wide variety of places – restaurants, insurance companies, churches, office buildings and, yes, RV parks and campgrounds as more of them cater to park models, cabins and a variety of new lodging concepts.
A study conducted in July by the National Pest Management Association and the University of Kentucky found almost 20% of exterminators had been to workplaces for bedbugs vs. 1% three years ago.
"We are dealing with bedbugs one case at a time," explained Mike Atkinson, director of lodging for Kampgrounds of America. "The campground industry in the United States is not heavily infested as a general rule. KOA in particular has had only minor issues."
But that doesn't rule out the need for campground owners to become educated about what Atkinson refers to as very industrious little bugs, samples of which, floating in vials of formaldehyde, were passed around to the seminar attendees.
"We need to be on top of this issue and handle it properly so we can be a bedbug-free industry," he said. "The lack of education is the source of our fear. Once you have a little bit of knowledge about them you don't fear them."
Bedbugs, which dine on human blood, were previously eradicated in the United States, but have slowly come back over the last 30 years mainly due to overseas travel and the ban of the chemical DDT.
"Bedbugs are a fascinating little creature, actually," Atkinson said. "They will only live within about five feet of a meal – in close proximity to beds. They sense the carbon dioxide people exhale so that is why they come out at night. We emit carbon dioxide continuously while we sleep. They inject a little anesthetic before they bite and that is why victims don't wake up to the biting."
These hardy insects can go without a meal if they have to for up to 18 months.
"What we were trying to figure out is the eradication technique that would work the best at campgrounds," Atkinson said.
When Atkinson began reading articles about the issue he came across a common denominator – Wayne Walker, senior pest controller at the University of Florida, who wound up as the presenter of KOA's bedbug seminar.
At the University of Florida, where there has been a bedbug issue within married housing, Walker developed and openly endorsed a unique process utilizing Nuvan ProStrips for dorm room size, which is also ideal for cabins at campgrounds.
Nuvan ProStrips, made by Amvac Chemical Corp., Axis, Ala., are hung up and vapor off bedbugs and other pests. The active ingredient is dichlorvos (DDVP).
"There is a specific technique for use in a small area, like a cabin or a lodge," Atkinson said. "It kills them in all life stages. It is not harmful to humans. It takes about 48 hours and campground owners can re-rent the cabin. There is no danger, no residual in the air. We have seen it be 100% effective so far."
Atkinson said campgrounds can use it freely, although it's not available for use in New York or Connecticut because of restricted use on pesticides.
Visit www.amvac-chemical.com/nuvan_prostrips_labels.html for more information on Nuvan ProStrips. Visit www.bedbugregistry.com to see a listing by state of lodging where bedbugs have been found.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Santa Clara University sophomore Casey Knutson clinched a team victory with her 10th win of the season as the Bronco women's tennis team closed their home schedule with a 5-2 West Coast Conference victory over San Francisco this evening at the Degheri Tennis Center. The Broncos improve to 11-9 overall, 5-2 in league play, while the Dons fall to 12-9, 1-4.
The Broncos clinched the doubles point to start the afternoon's match, led by Janalle Kaloi and Catherine Cochrane's 8-6 win in over Gabriela Ruiz and Megan Tiegs. San Francisco avoided the doubles sweep with a tiebreaker win on the third court.
In singles action, the Broncos secured a 3-0 lead with wins by freshmen Kelly Leathers and Kimberly Daniel, on courts three and five, respectively. The Dons registered their first point of the match with Tiegs' three-set win over Cochrane on court two.
Knutson topped Anna Skogerboe in a second set tiebreaker in the fourth singles slot for the match-clinching win.
USF grabbed its second and final point on the sixth court and Kaloi closed the evening with her come-from-behind win on court one.
"We defeated them 4-3 last time, so we picked up a solid extra point with today's victory," head coach Tricia Guidace said. "It's a strong way to head into our final weekend of the season and as we look forward to the league tournament."
Santa Clara will close out the regular season at Saint Mary's on Saturday, with an 11 a.m. first serve. The Broncos will then return to Moraga the following weekend for the 2004 WCC Championships, also hosted by Saint Mary's. Details on opponents and times will be released early next week.
Prior to the start of the match, Broncos honored their lone senior, Jenny Siegel.
"As friends and teammates, we want to say thank you for four years of dedication to the Bronco program," Guidace added.

Bulldogs Try To Win 2 Straight
Jersey Night At Ingalls
NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- The No. 11 Bulldogs (3-2-2, 2-1-2 ECAC), who have played three straight overtime games, host Sacred Heart (3-6-2, 2-4-1 AHA) Tuesday night at Ingalls Rink. This is the first-ever meeting of the two Division I Nutmeg State schools. Faceoff is 7:00 and can be seen and heard live on yalebulldogs.com as well as WYBC (AM-1340) and wybc.com. It is "Jersey Night" at Ingalls, so fans wearing a hockey jersey Tuesday night will be admitted free.
SHU Pioneers
Sacred Heart, led by former Yale assistant CJ Marottolo, makes its first trip to New Haven after falling twice to RIT at Rochester last weekend. Matt Gingera lit the lamp twice in a 55 second span of the first period but RIT upended Sacred Heart 5-3 on Nov. 21 to complete a sweep. Sacred Heart and RIT were even after two periods but the Tigers scored twice in the final frame and killed off nine minutes of SHU power play time. Tommy Castonguay gave Sacred Heart a 3-2 lead in the second period with his first collegiate goal.
Bulldogs Bite Bears in OT
Broc Little helped the No. 9 Yale men's hockey team avoid a late-game disaster by scoring in overtime in a 6-5 win over winless Brown at Meehan Auditorium in ECAC Hockey action. The Blue started junior Ryan Rondeau between the pipes. He played 50 minutes and stopped 14 of 19 shots. Senior Billy Blase, the third Bulldog to play goalie this season, stopped all three shots he saw to earn the victory. The Bears (0-6-1, 0-4-1), who erased a three-goal deficit midway through the second period, got 13 saves (on 17 shots) from Mike Clemente over the first 20 minutes before Anthony Borelli came on to stop 23 shots. Yale outshot Brown 42-22 and scored two power-play goals to move into a four-way tie for fourth place in the ECAC.
UMASS Takes OT Game
James Marcou's goal with 61 seconds left in overtime gave No. 11 UMass a 4-3 win over No. 9 Yale before 2,359 at Ingalls Rink on Nov. 19. Marcou fired a shot from the inside of the right circle that likely would have been saved if not for the action in front of Yale goalie Nick Maricic, who finished with 32 saves. Marcou's brother, Michael, was on the doorstep with a defenseman causing a distraction for the freshman netminder. UMass (8-2), which already had wins over defending national champion Boston University and New Hampshire, outshot Yale 36-31. The Bulldogs, who gave up a 1-0 lead before coming back from a goal deficit to take the lead back, had all they could handle in speedy Minutemen. Dan Meyers made 28 saves, including 11 in the third period, to earn the win for the Minutemen. He needed to stop six of seven power plays to get the victory.
OT Games
Yale has played three straight OT games and four overall this season. The Elis are 1-1-2 in extra session games and have at least three goals in each. The most goals in an OT game this year was six in a win last Saturday at Brown. Two of the OT games this season have been 3-3 finals.
First Time
This is the first meeting of the Yale and Sacred Heart hockey teams. The Elis will also have a first-ever meeting with Ferris State next month at the Badger Hockey Showdown in Madision, Wis.
Bulldog Bites
Six different Elis have tallied one PPG each... The Elis have been outscored in the second period but have an advantage on opponents in the first (10-9) and third (11-5) periods... Twelve different players covering all four classes have scored for Yale this season... Yale, averaging 37 shots per game, has outshot opponents by 51 overall... The Blue is 6-for-42 (14.3%) on the power play this year and has a 78.8 percent success rate on the penalty kill.
Lots of Little
Junior F Broc Little leads the Elis with seven goals and 11 points. He has a point in every game and four multiple-point outings this season. Little's 1.57 points per game are third in Division I. He and Blake Gallagher of Cornell are the only two players in the country to have a goal for every game played this season.
Kearney Lends Helping Hand
Junior F Denny Kearney, who has eight points in seven games, has recorded a point in all but one game. He is tied with sophomore F Brian O'Neill for the team lead with seven helpers this season. gh seven assists. Kearney is second to Mark Arcobello (49) in active career assists with 43.
Goalie Du Jour
Three different Bulldogs have started in goal this season, and Yale has not settled on one as the leading man. A year after Alec Richards '09 brought the team and his own game to a new level, the Elis have a freshman, junior and senior battling for the top job. Newcomer Nick Maricic (2.86, 894, 1-1-1), junior Ryan Rondeau (3.84, .880, 1-1-1) and senior Billy Blase (3 saves, 1-0-0) have been in net.
Backman Close to Century Scoring Mark
F Sean Backman has 97 career points in 100 games, including 61 goals. Yale's active career goals leader was named to the College Hockey News (CHN) 2008-09 Pre-Season All-America squad. He was second-team All-ECAC last year after leading his team with 20 goals. Backman tallied the team's lone hat trick in a 5-0 win over Cornell that gave the Blue the ECAC Hockey Tournament Title and made him tournament MVP.
Arcobello Making Point
Senior F Mark Arcobello has four points in seven outings. Arcobello, a second-team All-America pick last winter, has 35 goals and 84 points in three-plus seasons. He is second on the active career goals and points list to Backman.
Century Mark
Senior F Mark Arcobello has 104 career games played. Most Eli seniors don't get a glimpse of triple digits until late in their final campaigns. Two of his teammates, F Sean Backman (100) and D Ryan Donald (96), should follow Arcobello. All three could break the record of 125 games shared by Jeff Hamilton '01 and Jeff Hristovski '06.
Captain Ryan Donald
Ryan Donald (St. Albert, ALB), a class of 2010 defenseman, is the captain of the 2009-10 Bulldogs. The 6-foot-3, 220-pound Bulldog skater is one of 20 NCAA hockey candidates for the 2009-10 Lowe's Senior CLASS Award. To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must be classified as an NCAA Division I senior and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence - classroom, character, community and competition. Donald has compiled a 2.93 grade point average as a political science major at one of the nation's top universities. He was recognized as a member of the ECAC All-Academic team in 2009.
On the Bench
Keith Allain '80, Yale's Malcolm G. Chace Head Coach of Hockey, has helped establish the Bulldogs on the national scene since he joined the program three years ago. In 2008-09 he led Yale to the best season in the program's history. A school-record 24 wins, Yale's first ECAC Tournament Championship and a school-best No. 5 national ranking in late March backs up that statement. The Elis' second ECAC regular-season title, a third NCAA Tournament appearance and an Ivy League crown confirm the status of the 2008-09 squad. He was honored by ECAC coaches as conference coach of the year (Tim Taylor Award) and College Hockey News named him national coach of the year.
Ingalls Renovations
Dedication night for the renovated Ingalls Rink is Jan. 16 when the Yale men host Brown after the women play RPI. That is also alumni day for both squads. The underground addition, which includes approximately 13,000 square feet of varsity operational space, is located on the Mansfield Street side of the rink. It includes locker rooms for both varsity teams. There is also a strength and conditioning center, student-athlete study area, training room, officials room, video room, coaches' offices, equipment room and more. The rest of Ingalls has also received a major upgrade, with a new Schley Room reception area on the other side of the rink. A Yale Hockey Heritage area, highlighting more than 120 years of Yale hockey history, will be located right outside the Schley Room. There will also be a new concessions stand and bathrooms in the area where the visiting varsity team locker room used to be; the visitors will now use the locker room that the Yale women's team used to use.

Shingles is a viral infection that may cause pain, burning, or a tingling sensation on either the left or right side of the body. Several days or weeks later, a band, strip, or small area of rash usually appears in the same area and progresses into blisters, which scab over before clearing up over the next few weeks.
