Ballistic flower vase, shrapnel-pierced rifle among Vimy artifacts in N.B. exhibit.
Unique artifacts gathered from battle site all have New Brunswick connections.
By Shane Fowler, CBC News
At first glance, the copper flower vase sitting near the entrance of the New Brunswick Museum is unremarkable, its shape prosaic, its brown lustre tranquil and dull.
But its inscription — April 10, 1917 — reveals a connection to Canada's defining military engagement of the First World War and its origins as a depleted German artillery shell collected from the battlefields of Vimy Ridge.
"It was done all behind the line," said Gary Hughes, curator of history at the New Brunswick Museum. "Some workers just worked away at it to make money off of Allied soldiers. And they were metal workers, and they were skilled in this or that, and some did it themselves when they were behind the lines."
The date on the vase is that of the second day of the historic battle in which Canadian forces suffered thousands of losses while taking a German stronghold, one that Allied troops had previously failed to capture.
It is part of the museum's commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge, which took place from April 9 through April 12, 1917.
"It is a significant part of our Canadian history, and identity," said Hughes.
In another display case lies a German rifle, picked up by a Fredericton man in the fields under the shadow of Vimy Ridge.
Beside it lies a long, jagged, sleeve of twisted metal; shrapnel from another German artillery shell.
"We did that because in the rifle itself is a small piece of shrapnel," said Hughes. "That would do some damage to you. The large piece would definitely kill you. And those things were flying around. Artillery was the great killer in the war."
Military uniforms worn by New Brunswick men during the battle are also on display, along with several other artifacts directly related to the battle that have New Brunswick connections.
Those items, along with their stories, will be on display for the next month.

Mortgage Help for Rhode Island
There are few anxieties that hit harder than the possibility of losing your home. If you have a family and children, multiply that by a hundred. Tens of thousands of homeowners and families are going through that ordeal right now in Rhode Island. However, if you are one of the million plus residents in Rhode Island you can be grateful to live in a state with one the best mortgage aid programs in the U.S.
This series of articles will look into the mortgage aid programs available in Rhode Island and what steps you should take to make the most of them and save your home from foreclosure. It will also look at educational campaigns like "Don't borrow trouble" and "Fair Housing Rhode Island" sponsored by the state government.
However, the first piece of advice, whether you live in Rhode Island or Texas is to act quickly. At the end of these articles we provide links to the programs and agencies that can help you. If you are struggling to pay your mortgage contact them quickly. More importantly, contact your lender as soon as possible and ask for help. Help is available for many borrowers find out if you are one of them.
Rhode Island Housing
Rhode Island Housing is a self-sustaining public agency which works with its own income. This means that no tax dollars are used to provide the mortgage aid programs they offer. Income is generated by selling tax-free bonds. Rhode Island Housing is a shining example of what can be done with a little vision and creativity to provide practical help without asking for charity or charging extra taxes. It works similarly to the California Housing and Finance Administration, although unlike the Californian agency it does not only focus on first time buyers and rentals.
Rhode Island Housing has served the residents of Rhode Island for more than 30 years. They provide low interest mortgages, grants, counseling and education to people who want to buy a home, rent one or modify an existing loan. According to the agency more than 60,000 families have bought a home thanks to their programs. They have also financed the building of over 14,000 to rent to low and medium income Rhode Islanders. The beauty of this agency is that it doesn't only sell mortgages, and modify loans it also invests in the homes of borrowers to make them safer and healthier to live in. In the last thirty years they have invested over three billion dollars in renovating the homes.
What I like about this housing agency is that besides not using tax dollars to work it is a good business. It has won thirteen national housing awards and has earned the Standard & Poor's "Top Tier" investment. It is not a charity in the traditional sense but a profitable company that reinvests all its profits and net worth in helping low income Rhode Islanders.
But enough of the marketing spiel let's get into what programs you can apply for.

In order to attain desirable data import outcomes and avoid malfunctions in the course of data transfer, you are supposed to proceed with the following:
To start osCommerce xml data upload process, launch Store Manager Import Wizard. Go to "Tools" section, "Import/Export" tab and choose "Import/Export products" option. You can also find the corresponding option on products toolbar:
This procedure is performed by similar to osCommerce import from .csv mechanism. Actually, data are firstly transformed to .csv and after this settings, typical for .csv feeds upload, should be implemented. In such a way, do the following:
1. Designate transformation options - specify what is the main product node, set transform mode and link xml nodes to corresponding .csv columns
3. Base Formats and Separators are used to convert text values from .csv file to numerical and date values. You can just set default values using an appropriate button.
4. Image Import Options
5. The next page allows you to Link columns from .csv file to appropriate database fields.
First row in .csv file contains field names, but not values - Obviously it should be checked if first row of .csv file contains data, otherwise uncheck this option.
Products Identification Method - It is the topmost option as import will search for a product using selected method of identification. The product will be modified if found, if not - new product will be added. Lets say you choose option Identify Products By Product ID . How it is performed:
2. osCommerce Import tries to find product with ID of 1 in your store:
- If product is found it will modify it and set all values from .csv columns of the first line to assigned fields (even if you have let's say some Camera or Keyboard saved under the 1st ID, it will set values from your .csv file). Note that this method cannot be used if IDs in your file are different from the ones in your database.
[Auto Fill...] button - try to set correspondence automatically for all fields. Auto fill option will work only if .csv column name is the same as database field name ("translated").
[Clear] button - clear all "csv col" values at the left pane.
Click "Next" if you're done.
To import attributes from separate columns you should create additional attribute field for each attribute. Once it is created, you will get 4 additional options: Option, Value, Prefix, Price. You need to assign attribute value, prefix and price for each attribute column of your file to appropriate attribute options of database in each additional field.
6. Products were not imported to your osCommerce database yet. On osCommerce Import Preview page you can see how .csv file was processed using import settings, which you specified at previous steps. Check whether all columns that you want to be imported are filled with data: some of them may be blank. It means that either you haven't assigned .csv column or it is empty in source (.csv) file. Columns that were not assigned will not be imported whereas empty values will overwrite existing.
If red blinking arrow appears, it means that some errors occurred and you have to fix them.
Also you can enable and set the row # you want to start import from.
7.OsCommerce Import options page settings may affect Import results. Please read and check your selection carefully.
osCommerce Import Method
Save osCommerce Import Configuration
All import settings can be stored under some configuration. You can load it next time you decide to import products from a file with similar formatting, column names etc.
Attention! osCommerce Import process will start, when you press "Import" Button! Proceed only if all settings are made, otherwise press "Back" Button and check the settings once more!
8. On the last step of osCommerce Import Products Wizard you will see whether any errors occur during import. Also you will see logs with details.
Most frequent import errors are date, time and number conversion issues, caused by invalid format settings (specified at the previous pages) or improperly assigned columns (i.e. if you assign column containing text data to numeric database field).
Date/time conversion errors might be ignored, whereas other errors (like this one Could not find image: image_name.gif) have to be fixed.
If you need assistance with osCommerce Import configuration, we'll gladly help you to setup everything correctly for additional fee. Please contact us at contact[at]oscommerce-manager[dot]com for details.

I read that if you ask ten people to name a magician, nine will reply "Harry Houdini." Well, only half of my friends and family named Houdini, but considering he died seventy-two years ago this Halloween, that's an awesome amount of fame. Houdini was a legendary magician, escape artist, contortionist and showman. Here's where his spirit is still haunting.

7-Eleven: Domo Hot Dog (2)
Domo takes over 7-Eleven.
Published on Oct 06, 2009
Editor's Pick
This Fall, 7-Eleven will undergo another Simpsons-like takeover�this time, however, by the Japanese character Domo, the brown blockhead with feet created by Japanese illustrator and director Tsuneo Goda, and who also serves as the mascot for Japanese TV station NHK.
Domo will be omnipresent in 7-Eleven stores--his face will appear on coffee cups and hot dog containers, fuzzy Domo toys will dangle from Slurpee straws, and gargantuan open-mouthed Domos will serve as candy displays. 7-Eleven will also be selling a new Domo-inspired Slurpee flavor, Fuji Frost by Fanta as well as various other Domo paraphernalia, including collectible action figures, DVDs, plush characters and clothing.
As part of the promotion, 7-Eleven is releasing a three-part webisode viewable at www.slurpee.com and www.domonation.com, which follows Domo and friends in their quest for a Slurpee. The films were created by dwarf inc., the Japanese animation company that originally created Domo. Each episode will debut weekly on the sites starting on October 1.

FX has landed bigscreen's biggest fish, acquiring the basic cable rights to James Cameron's "Avatar."
Sci-fi epic is burning up the box office. Global take was $1.14 billion through Wednesday, making pic the second highest grosser behind Cameron's "Titanic" (and now passing "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King").
Terms of the FX deal weren't disclosed, but it looks to be more than the standard pact, with FX laying out an estimated $25 million-$30 million. That's a bit higher than other recent bigscreen purchases, but due to the nature of the movie's global gross and demand from other networks, Fox was able to get a substantial increase.
Cabler can begin airing "Avatar" toward the middle of 2012 and will likely have a window that extends toward the end of the decade. Most deals last four years, but negotiations allowed for an extended window.
As part of its output deal with Fox, HBO will have the pay cable rights and air the pic before FX.
Cabler emphasized it has made major movie deals with many studios of late and didn't receive any discounts or better terms because of the Fox-FX synergy.
FX will show the film in 2D but, depending upon the explosion of television technology, can also telecast the pic in 3D at any point.
Avatar" is just the latest B.O. giant FX has acquired. In November, cabler bought all four "Twilight" pics from Summit, including the recently released "New Moon," the upcoming "Eclipse" and the planned "Breaking Dawn." In summer, FX secured the rights to "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" from Paramount.
On the series side, FX has animated skein "Archer" premiering Jan. 14 and Timothy Olyphant starrer "Justified" (formerly "Lawman") set to go in March. Third season of "Damages" shifts to Monday and begins Jan. 25.

Yes, you're right, I've been quiet lately. I may not be bionic, and I'm not exactly the 6 million dollar man, or woman in this case, and I'm not wonder woman .......... yet. But I've been 'rebuilt'. Both knees and both feet are now fixed. Hooray. It's taken 3 years of countless Doctors, Podiatrists and Specialist's appointments, x-rays, MRI scans and even a visit to Accident and Emergency at the hospital. I've had many ups and downs, and it's cost a lot of money, but I'm finally able to carry on with my cycling trips , and physical ambitions. Life is too short to put up with pain. As I said 6 months ago, if I'm willing to pay thousands to fix my poor cat, then why not myself.
It's just past the shortest day. It may not be getting any warmer, but it's always a milestone I'm pleased to get to. Spring can't come soon enough. There are small signs of the Spring in the garden. The little Jonquil Daffodil's are flowering and there are big buds on the fruiting trees. The 'Autumnalis' cherry tree is in flower, so named because it always flowers in Autumn and carries on flowering till Spring. These are only small signs, but I like seeing the seasons progress - reflected in the garden.
And of course Spring is special to me this year as it means cycle touring S.E.Asia. We can start looking up airline prices, now that I am 'fixed'. Niel may already have had his vaccinations and his Visa to enter Vietnam, but I will have to do mine.
I might be bandaged up and on crutches, but I'm felling happy and content that the process of eliminating my pain is finally over, and that's wonderful, so perhaps I am wonder woman after all.

Risk of Non-Familial Autism Is Often Related To the Age of the Father at a Child's Birth
Published on the EBD Blog
In order to access the links and the complete comment section please read this paper where it was originally published: THE EBD BLOG
cFathers' Age as Contributor to Risk for Autism
Leslie FeldmanThe average age of fatherhood is increasing in the US and in Western Europe. Some research shows that offspring of older fathers are at increased risk for diseases and conditions (Bray et al., 2006). Some experts predict an upswing in cases of schizophrenia will accompany the increasing average paternal age. "The actual percentage of cases with paternal germ line-derived schizophrenia in a given population will depend on the demographics of paternal childbearing age, among other factors. With an upswing in paternal age, these cases would be expected to become more prevalent" (Malaspina et al., 2006). Approximately 25-33% of all cases of schizophrenia may be due to the father's age at conception, according to Malaspina (2006). Malaspina sees a connection between advancing paternal age and neural functioning difficulties in people with autism and with schizophrenia. According to Tarin et al. (1998), there are well over 30 known conditions that the offspring of older fathers are more at risk for (see chart on paternal aging in the linked article).
The diagnosis of autism is increasing in the US and elsewhere (Centers for Disease Control, 2006). In a population study of 1990 through 1999, a total of 669,995 children, Atladóttir and colleagues (2007) reported increased diagnosese of autism, Torrette Syndrome, and hyperkinetic disorder. Is there a connection between increased cases of disorders such as autism and increased average paternal age? Psychiatrist Michael Craig Miller (2006), editor of the Harvard Mental Health Letter is convinced there is. Although a connection between the two would be corelational (not causal), the relationship encourages examination of the possibility that something related to paternal age (e.g. mutations in gametes) may contribute to the occurrence of autism. If there is a potential causal relationship, the new study by the Centers for Autism and Developmental Disabilities Research and Epidemiology (CADDRE) Network would provide a valuable opportunity to test the hypothesis.
Observations of a connection between advanced paternal age and difficulties for offspring go way back. Earlier research looking for a link between maternal age and autism also found the average paternal age (34) was much higher than the average age in the general population (Gillberg, 1980). Geneticist James F. Crow (1997) cites Wilhelm Weinberg (1862-1937) as noticing, during his 42 years of medical practice and helping 3,500 births, that the mutation rate might be a function of paternal age. Crow said, the evidence suggested that the greatest mutational health hazard in the population is fertile old men.
A study by Reichenberg et al. (2006) found a strong connection between cases of autism and advancing paternal age. Reichenberg and colleagues, who found more autism as paternal age increased, also found that the ratio of girls to boys in this cohort was 1:1, suggesting that this was a special subset of autism, maybe de novo rather than familial autism.
What might be the mechanism that produces higher rates of disorders among children of older fathers? The DNA in a 20 year-old male has been copied approximately100 times but in a 50 year-old father it has been copied over 800 times. Singh and colleagues (2003) studied differences in the sperm of older and younger men. Men over age 35 have sperm with lower motility and more highly damaged DNA in the form of double-strand breaks. The older group also had fewer apoptotic cells, an important discovery. (Apoptosis is form of cell death that protects the parent organism from problems or that permits differentiation, as in resorption of a tadpole's tail.) A really key factor that differentiates sperm from other cells in the body is that they do not repair their DNA damage, as most other cells do. As a result, the only way to avoid passing DNA damage to a child is for the damaged cells to undergo apoptosis, a process that the study indicates declines with age. Singh is quoted in Science Blog (Sullivan, 2002) as explaining that, "In older men, the sperm are accumulating more damage, and those severely damaged sperm are not being eliminated."

Dr. Narendra P.Singh suggested that I elaborate about what happens when the DNA in the primitive sperm making cells divides hundreds and hundreds of times as men age.
I will try.
Mutations arise with each cell division and the mutation rate increases with age. There are base substitutions and deletions and other copying errors. In a man of 45 there have been 770 cell divisions ancestral to a sperm. See James F. Crow's paper, "The high spontaneous mutation rate: Is it a health risk? in the sources section of the paper.

Gradient Services provide custom made, ferrous and non-ferrous castings from one off requirements to mass production quantities.
Casting is a manufacturing process where a solid is melted, heated to proper temperature and poured into a cavity or mold which contains it in the proper shape during solidification. Thus, in a single step, simple or complex shapes can be made from any metal that can be melted. The resulting product can have virtually any configuration the designer desires.
Cast parts range in size from a fraction of a centimetre and a few grams, to over 200 tonnes. Casting has marked advantages in the production of complex shapes, parts having hollow sections or internal cavities, containing irregular curved surfaces, are very large and those made from metals that are difficult to machine. Because of these obvious advantages, casting is one of the most important of the manufacturing processes.
Gradient Services can be provided as cast, proof machined or finished machined. This offers several key advantages to the customer both from a cost perspective and risk limitation.
With over 10 years experience and a highly skilled technical team, we can fulfil the individual demands and requirements of various industries. We provide a complete service from the mold development, die-casting products production, to fabricating, product assembly and delivery.
Our foundries are ISO9001 certified and guarantee the products they supply. All castings are supplied with material chemistry and mechanical certificates. Additional testing and certification is available on request.

WASHINGTON -- Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday was elected House speaker again as lawmakers in the House and Senate convened for the start of the 111th Congress.
The final vote was 255 to 174 with 429 members voting along strict party lines. The Congress currently has 434 members, who were then sworn in by Pelosi after her victory. One House seat is vacant. Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel resigned to become President-elect Barack Obama's chief of staff.
The atmosphere in the House was family-friendly as children, grandchildren and other relatives joined lawmakers in the large chamber, lit for television. Many of the kids yelled out their votes on behalf of their family representative.
Sean and Tommy Rooney, ages 5 and 7, wore T-shirts with their last name on the back, not unlike the Pittsburgh Steelers football team that is owned by their father's family. Rep. Thomas Rooney is a freshman Republican from Florida.
House Minority Leader John Boehner, who was the Republican nominee for the slot, was among those who did not vote. Boehner and Pelosi did call President Bush to announce the new Congress and to invite the president to Capitol Hill for a breakfast or lunch in the coming days.
A potential effort to demonstrate dissent by Republicans and Democrats by voting for Rep. John Dingell did not take place. FOX News learned that one freshman Democratic representative who planned to vote "present" instead of for Pelosi relented at the last minute after threats the member would lose a key committee assignment.
Minutes after taking the gavel, a symbol of her authority, Pelosi stressed the need for quick legislation to bolster the economy.
"We need action and we need action now," she said.
Over on the Senate side, Vice President Dick Cheney swore in 34 of the 35 senators who were elected on Nov. 4. One seat -- from Minnesota -- remains undecided because Norm Coleman is challenging the state Canvassing Board's certification of Democrat Al Franken as the winner.
One other spot -- the Illinois seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama -- also remains vacant. The Senate on Tuesday refused to seat Gov. Rod Blagojevich's designated replacement, former state Attorney General Roland Burris, to the position.
In all, seven new senators and 54 House members started their new lives on Capitol Hill. They are joined by two freshmen among six non-voting delegates.
Vice President-elect Joe Biden was sworn in as the Delaware senator. He will be resigning shortly but was sworn in so that his replacement can be appointed by Gov. Ruth Ann Minner. Biden's former chief of staff, Ted Kaufman, is taking over the position.
Also returning to serve his 8th term is Sen. Ted Kennedy, who was diagnosed with brain cancer last year.
Apart from Biden, at least three lawmakers will not be there for long. Rep. Hilda Solis, a Democrat, was nominated as secretary of labor in the Obama administration; Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is departing Congress to become secretary of state and Colorado Sen. Ken Salazar was tapped to become interior secretary.
Besides the economy, lawmakers will face considerable early work in reviewing Obama's Cabinet nominees.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Mithun Chakraborty, who was seen as a grand judge in Dance India Dance, will be making his TV comeback with Krushna Abhishek's new show The Drama Company. The new comedy show will air on Sony, which also has The Kapil Sharma Show. Krushna and Kapil are often pitched as competitors and on this note, the veteran actor spoke about the competition. He says stand-up comedian Kapil Sharma is one of the biggest talents he has seen in his career.
Asked about the competition between them, Mithun, in an interview says, "How can it be competition as it is on the same channel. Will a producer wish that his one film should perform badly?
Also Read: Kapil Sharma on Sunil Grover: He's like a brother, can join TKSS anytime he wants, watch video
"I have no idea about it (referring to competition between the two comedians on Colors channel). But I feel no one should compare. Kapil is one of the biggest talents I have seen in my film career, he is very talented. His show is huge, it will take time (for Krushna's show) to reach there."
Mithun, who was regular on TV with dance reality show "Dance India Dance", took a sudden break from the small screen due to health issues. The actor, however, says the comedy show cannot be termed a comeback as he was continuously getting a lot of offers.
"I stayed away from television as I was not physically fit. I wouldn't call it a comeback as the industry did not leave me, they wanted me. I couldn't do it so it is not acomeback. I am happy to be with them. Now, I want to do good work," he says.
In the show Mithun will be playing the character of Shambhu Dada, the owner of a drama company. "The Drama Company" also features Sudesh Lahiri, Ali Asgar, Dr Sanket Bhosale, Sugandha Mishra and Ridhima Pandit.

Ashe Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
"Lol, good job Ashe. You won it for us!"
I got tons of good comments on my game-play with Ashe. She is a very good support/carry champ if you play my build accordingly and you will be surprise how bad-*** Ashe is. My win rational are higher than my losses. I have more kills than death and lots of kill assist. (1358+ -812+ -1659+)...
It's pretty simple to play Ashe really. As long you beef up your Ashe with Speed and Damage. Nothing will stand in your way because Ashe is a mean killing machine.
My build is for armor penetration. Thus you can see my build as is. This build is required to be able to play my Ashe at her potential. Mana regeneration and attack speed along with damage are required.
You must be wondering why I don't use crits over damage. The answer is here. http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=70173 I've already tried with all crits runes, but it failed to amazes me over armor pen. You should try it out. If you don't believe me. Beside, if you play my build that is recommended, it seems like you always crits because you literally attack too fast.
Summoning Spells:
This spell is an excellent addition to choose. You can do all sort of variety of things with this spell. For example, when your towers are under attack, use your judgment to see if the tower is worth saving for, then you can teleport to that tower and aid it. In addition, not only can you teleport to any towers you can also teleport on minions, wards, or any objects as well. Not only that, I've seen many creative players that uses their spell to their advantage, including myself by doing a combination of ultimate and teleport. What you mean by that? Here is an example of the clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJZZs3d5eig They called it the "Skillshot". As long you have the timing down with your ultimate, this can be a very effective combination skill to use, but very, very risky. You might end up missing your ultimate and end up teleporting there getting yourself killed. Again, use your judgment.
Another great addition spell to have. I can honestly say, I cannot live without this spell. This is by far the most useful skills to have for Ashe, especially when you are a squishy champ. This spell can be used to your advantage in many ways. You can kite your opponent, escape from danger, or tower dive. Yes, you can tower dive, as long you get the timing down accordingly. I've done it many times and successfully done it.
Passive Skills:
Great passive skills for Ashe. Just make sure you do not blow it on your first shot on minions. Again do not waste your first shot on a minion. Your first target should be the opponent. If you can successfully do that, you can actually get your opponents health down by half if you do it with the combination of Volley shots. For some reason, you are having a hard time doing that here is a tip: If you are playing mid, make sure to hide behind a bush. Wait for your target to appear and use your ghost spell, then charge at him with your first shot following with Volley. You would be surprised how damage your opponent is. Again, great passive skill to have.
Item Sequences:
First off, I normally start off with Meki Pendant and two Health Potions. The reason for the pendant and health potion, your job is to harass your opponent as much as possible. Meki Pendant allows you to keep your mana up. But you also need to have Greater Seal of Clarity runes. thus able you to keep on harassing. Health potion is there just incase if you got damaged, just pot up.
After you accumulated enough gold, upgrade your Meki Pendant into a Philosopher's Stone. This item is very useful. It has mana/health regeneration. Not only that it also gives you 5 gold every 10 seconds, but it does not end there. It also has a passive skills that gives you another 5 gold for every 10 seconds. Zomg! 10 gold every 10 seconds. It's not bad really.

At least 2,611 Gambians has been denied non-immigrant U.S. visa, according to State Department statistics at its post in Banjul last year.
About 3,452 people applied for entry into United States and visas were granted to less than 1,000 people. At least 75.64% of Gambian applicants were rejected, one of the highest in Africa.
With only 841 people given visas, Gambia's refusal rate is higher than Senegal, war-torn DR Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Eretria and even Somalia, where terrorist group Al-Shabab has laid siege on lives – making it one of, if not the highest in Africa.
Gambians spent D22,095,200 (USD $552,380) on visa applications and lost D16,712,840 (USD $417,821).
Those granted entry where often given five year multiple entry visas.
More than 407,000 Africans from at least 16 countries applied for U.S. entry spending at least $66 million. More than 143,00 of them were rejected losing at least $22 million. This is just for B1 visas and those not include other visa types like F1 for students.

Staal in the Family, 'Canes Rally to Beat Columbus
Carolina Hurricane captain Eric Staal scored twice in the third period and his brother Jordan added the game winner moments later to cap a 3-2 come-back victory over the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets Monday night.
Tonight's game was the third of five meetings between the Metropolitan division rivals. Columbus took the first two of the season and were winners of seven in a row against the Hurricanes. For Carolina to leap-frog Columbus in the standings they would need to play a full 60 minute game against a physical Blue Jacket team. Columbus jumped on top early. After a point shot rattled off the pipes and Anton Khubodin was unable to control it, Columbus center Derek MacKenzie buried his fifth of the year. 17 seconds later, another rebound in front of Khubodin allowed RJ Umberger to net his 14th goal of the season. Each team managed 7 shots a piece in the opening period and Columbus took the two goal lead into the first intermission.
The second period saw a Carolina team that wouldn't give up and a battle of goalies. The Hurricanes defense held Columbus to nine shots, but not many were true scoring opportunities. Carolina goalie Anton Khudobin came up big on the ones that were and allowed the Hurricanes to stay within striking distance. Carolina's offense managed 17 shots on last years Vezina Trophy winner, Sergei Bobrovsky and the Blue Jacket net minder turned them all away.
Carolina can seem to score in bunches at the PNC Arena after they manage to find the net for their first one. Half-way through the third period the dam broke. Alexander Semin left the puck in the left wing circle for a trailing Eric Staal and the captain slipped it 5-hole on Bobrovsky. Exactly one minute later captain Staal struck again off a centering pass from behind the Columbus net by Jiri Tlusty. The game winner came when Jordan Staal stole the puck in the neutral zone and was able to walk-in on Blue Jacket defenseman Ryan Murray and slip a back-hand by the leg of Bobrovsky.
The Hurricane victory moved the team into third in the Metropolitan division standings, two points behind the Rangers for second and tied with Detroit in the Wild Card standings. In their 5 games left before the Olympic break, four of them are at home. The only one that is away is Tuesday night in Montreal. The back-to-back game will mark the 13th of 20 sets of games for Carolina this season. Only the New Jersey Devils (22) will play more back-to-back games this season. The Hurricanes are 7-4-1 in the front halves and 4-5-3 in the back halves thus far.

A company that bills itself as a leader in Internet and mobile cloud testing will measure whether the investments companies make in Super Bowl commercials pay them dividends by measuring how well Super Bowl ads perform across desktops and mobile and table devices.
Keynote announced on Friday it would measure "the speed and reliability of Super Bowl advertiser's websites both before and after the big game on Sunday."
"This year, for the first time ever, and because of the growing importance of the mobile channel to business, Keynote is measuring the performance of Super Bowl advertiser's websites in real time across three screens — desktop, mobile and tablet — to see who crosses the finish line first during the most watched television event of the year," the company said on Friday.
As more people demand a "two-screen experience" in watching live sporting events, the results of the Keynote story will be of importance to industry experts.

From Mark Cuban at Blog Maverick
Point #1 can't be stressed enough.
The Best Investment Advice You Will Ever Get
I'm going to simplify what I consider to be the best investment advice I have ever been given and share it with you. Here you go:
1. If you have any credit card or other type of consumer debt on which you pay 5pct or more interest, pay it off. Compound interest is your enemy. The chances of you earning more on your money than you are paying in consumer interest rates are slim. Pay it off.
2. Cash is King. Now that Madoff is in jail, no investment can offer returns with zero risk. If you don't fully understand the risks of an investment you are contemplating, it's ok to do nothing. In times of massive uncertainty like we are facing today, doing nothing is a valid and IMHO preferable investment strategy. Just put your money in the bank.
3. Cash Creates Transactional Returns. What does this mean ? It means that you should analyze what you spend money on over the course of a year. You will get a better return on your money by being a smart shopper and taking advantage of cash, quantity or other types of discounts than you will in the stock market. Saving 15pct on the $1k dollars worth of items you know you will absolutely spend money on is a better return on your money than making 15pct in a year on a $1k investment because you don't pay taxes on it.
If you have under 100k dollars in liquid assets, your net worth will be higher in one year if you follow this advice than if you follow ANY other investment advice any broker or banker will give you this year.
It is good advice even for those with more than 100K
Mark Cuban does not have to worry about saving for retirement. He also did not get stinkin rich by paying off his credit cards. I don't think that Mark Cuban is qualified to give "investment advice" for people with less than $100k net worth when he has never learned that lesson himself.
Personally, I don't agree that putting cash "in the bank" is a good idea when the interest to be earned on that cash is less than inflation - esp if there are better options for those investments. But yes, one must understand the risks - duh.
Mark Cuban came from a working class family, and was a self-made entrepreneur, so it's not like he's never been there. It's also a hell of a lot easier for most people to save 15% on things they have to purchase vs. making 15% a year annually.
He might not have become a billionaire from spending smartly and paying off debt, but these pieces of advice are pretty smart. Most people won't make a bundle investing in the stock market/commodities/real estate.
Sorry, it should have said "He might not have become a billionaire from spending smartly and paying off debt alone."
I think Buffett, who's famous for being frugal, would wholeheartedly agree with Cuban's advice.
I agree...even if we have our debt paid down and have more than $100k we all fall easily into get rich quick schemes. If I focused as much energy on maximizing my income and slow and steady progress I am sure I would be better off...
But there is no better knowledge then learning the hard way through experience I guess!
Cuban's advice is really all you need to know.
Preferred shares of blue chips with a solid dividend beat cash. I think the world is going to hell in a hand basket, but people are going to buy Kraft food for awhile, even if it's just mac and cheese.
And if they're not - I'd skip cash in favour of gold and silver. Cash isn't without its own risk, if the Fed does something crazy. Crazier, I mean.
Note that a Kraft or P&G is also somewhat more protected against such crazy events.
Its nice to hear someone else echo my sentiment on debt.
Good advice which I already adhere to.

A judge set a homeless man's bail at $250,000 Monday and found probable cause to support an accusation that he stabbed a man in broad daylight during a fight in Sylvester Park July 16.
Daniel Homan, 36, was being held at the Thurston County Jail Monday on suspicion of first-degree assault. Homan is accused in court papers of stabbing a 27-year-old Ralph Turpin on the right side of his torso and on the forearm in Olympia's Sylvester Park about 4:10 p.m. on July 16.
A witness told police he overheard Homan say he stabbed Turpin "over a female and a laptop," court papers state. Turpin told investigators that Homan "ripped some people off and it was taken back from him," according to court papers.
Homan ran to a waiting Intercity Transit bus on Capitol Way after the stabbing. Homan got on the bus, but was then forced off and beaten by a crowd of men from Sylvester Park. Homan was stabbed in the abdomen during a fight with the men who were pursuing him, Washington State Patrol Sgt. Jason Hicks said.
The suspect in Homan's stabbing is still on the loose, Hicks said.
Surveillance footage from an Intercity Transit bus shows Homan getting on the bus, then being attacked after being forced off. Hicks said investigators are trying to identify Homan's attackers, and whomever is responsible for Homan's stabbing.
Initially, the patrol thought Turpin may have stabbed Homan, but court papers released Monday indicate that he is not responsible. According to court papers, a Department of Enterprise Services surveillance camera from Sylvester Park shows Homan's stabbing was committed by an unidentified man. "It is clearly seen that Turpin is in the area of this stabbing, but is not involved in the stabbing of Homan," court papers state.
Hicks said the patrol has set up a tip line at 253-538-3100, and anyone who can help identify those responsible for attacking Homan should call.
Turpin was released from an area hospital last week, but was then arrested on a bail jumping warrant out of California. Turpin was in custody Monday at the Thurston County Jail in connection with the arrest warrant.
Homan was released from the hospital Monday morning and booked into the Thurston County Jail on suspicion of first-degree assault in connection with Turpin's stabbing. Homan appeared in court in a wheelchair during his bail hearing Monday afternoon.
Investigators interviewed Homan at the hospital on Sunday, and he said "I won't admit to or deny stabbing anyone," court papers state. Homan was unable to identify the man who stabbed him, court papers state.
Homan moved to Olympia from California about six months ago, court papers state. He has a prior arrest record out of California, and at the time of his arrest July 16, he had a warrant out of Olympia Municipal Court for a pending misdemeanor assault charge. Last week's stabbing in Sylvester Park has prompted questions about the safety of the park, where a large number of transients and street people congregate. The State Patrol is in charge of the park, because it is owned by the state and is considered part of the Capitol Campus.

A person had a chronic disease and was advised by doctors not to ever fast. He saw other doctors abroad and was cured by Allah's grace after five years. For five years he did not fast Ramadaan. What should he do now? Should he make fasting these months up or not?.
If the doctors who gave him this advice were trustworthy Muslims who understand the nature of this sickness, and they told him that there was no hope of recovery, then he does not have to make up the fasts and it is sufficient for him to feed poor people, but he should fast in the future. End quote.
Shaykh 'Abd al-'Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on him)

I love Halloween too, such a shame it's not bigger here. Before we were married {and had kids} we used to have a dress up Halloween party every year. It was great fun... so much so, that we chose that date to get married. It's always funny to go out that night on our anniversary as lots of restaurant/bar staff dress up and people are just generally quite festive and fun. These lights are great! I think my house nearly looks like that at xmas now... you've given me something to think about for next year!!!ReplyDelete

"Somebody grabbed my leg. Everybody was screaming."
On October 29th R.E. took over 50 kids to the annual Haunted House in Graves Hall at Morehouse College.
My favorite part of the haunted house was when one of the dudes from the haunted house picked me up. Then another character popped up from under the newspaper and attacked me. My second favorite part of the haunted house was when my mentor from Morehouse went in with me and was scared and trying to make me protect him by letting him hide behind me so I could his shield.
-Daejour, 5th grade
The haunted house was not very scary but I was kind of scared. Ms. Suzanna and a mentor from Morehouse picked me up the whole way through!! It was interesting and scary for others but it was very nice.
-Franeshia, 4th grade
The haunted house was so scary it made me cry. They made we walk through newspaper and touched my legs. It was so scary. Everyone was crying because people were yelling and there was a chain saw.
-Sadraeva, 4th grade
The haunted house was scary when you first walk in. There were these men and they jumped off a shelf and they scratch your legs. They tell you a scary story when you first come in. Then they take you in a dark room and tell you are safe we were not. My friends were really scared.
-Nichelle, 5th grade
The haunted house was scary. It was so fun and scary that even I was scared. People were popping out of the ground and popping out of the wall. They climbed up the walls too. They told us a story about this man that used to live in the haunted house. Then the man came out of a door with a real chainsaw and scared everyone that was there.
-Andres, 5th grade
The haunted house was very scary. I even cried, but I faced my fears. When I went in they told us a scary story and scared us really bad. I really enjoyed myself and I really enjoyed being scared.
-Family 1
We had a lot of fun at the haunted house. I wasn't scared even though it was my first time. I can't to go again next year but my family can not because they would be too scared.
Myonme, 6th grade
I was very scared when we went to the haunted house. My best friend even lost her shoe! She was screaming like someone was really going to hurt her, I just laughed. It was an exciting experience and I hope to do it again next year!
Monoe, 6th grade
I was completely confident before we actually got to the haunted house but when we went in I got really scared. We saw a lot of scary things. There was torn news paper everywhere. They scratched my feet. The scariest part was when we had to run from the man with the chainsaw. It was scary!!!!!

Lifestyle Changes to Keep Your Heart Alive
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world. More people die from this compared to other diseases such as cancer and diabetes. In 2008 alone, fifty-seven million people died all over the world, and 17.3 million or thirty percent of these people died because of different types of cardiovascular diseases.
The most common types of cardiovascular diseases that reap the world of its population are coronary heart disease and strokes. The problem with people with coronary heart disease lies in the blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to the muscles of the heart. Strokes, on the other hand, is caused by blockage in the blood vessels.
Although genetic factors can be a major contributor in the emergence of these diseases, many would agree that an unhealthy lifestyle plays a big role too. For instance, what blocks the blood vessels are fats that accumulate in the walls, thus constricting the passage of blood. What could possibly be the reason behind it than inactivity, lack of exercise, and poor eating habits?
To ensure the health of our hearts, it is very important to change the way we live. Of course, it can't be possibly achieved overnight. The key is to enact the changes slowly but constantly. Start with little things first and make sure to stick with that until that becomes a habit.
The first thing you can do is to include a few physical activities in your daily routine. Stop being a couch potato. Instead of spending your day in front of your television, do some house chores instead. You can also invest a few minutes making rounds in your neighborhood for a short morning walk, or you can also do a few simple exercises that can be done at home.
Including healthy foods in your daily meals is also very helpful, especially those that are rich with Omega-3 and lycopene like fish and tomatoes. In every meal, you must also include vegetables and fruits for a perfectly balanced meal, and lessen your intake of fatty foods. For snacks, you can substitute your chips with healthy nuts and fruit.
The hardest part to change in one's lifestyle is inarguably one's vices. The usage of tobacco and excessive alcohol intake is one of the main reasons of CVDs. Although it has been found out that moderate intake of red wine can help reduce the risk of having heart disease, too much can be harmful too. They key is self-control, moderation, and gradual change.
In this day and age where almost everything is detrimental to our health, it is quite hard to live a healthy lifestyle. But once you have the right motivation and reason to do so, it can be achieved.

It's simply a matter of accountability to our community.
In certain specific situations, the Federal Communication Commission licenses "Low Power FM" stations to provide geographically limited populations such as Oakhurst with local radio programming otherwise unavailable.
Such service is designed to offer area clubs, churches, schools, educational forums and other non-profit organizations an opportunity to discuss issues, promote events, and otherwise exchange thoughts and ideas on an interactive, participatory basis.
When the Local Community Radio Act of 2010 was signed into law by President Obama on January 4, 2011 with strong bipartisan support in both the House and Senate, FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said, "Low Power FM stations are small, but they make a giant contribution to local community programming."
In comparative hearings for "Low Power FM" facilities, applicants are graded on such items as a commitment to "originate locally at least eight hours of programming a day" and "maintain a publicly accessible main studio that has local program origination capability, is reachable by telephone, and is staffed at least 20 hours per week between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m."
There are numerous other mandatory technical and regulatory responsibilities - particularly rigid requirements to maintain a public inspection file, make available for inspection a political file tracking requests for candidate and/or issue discussion, and to regularly file ownership reports in a timely manner.
The sudden, mysterious appearance of KOLS-LP (98.5 FM) last summer on our Oakhurst radio dials generated extended inquiry that had now culminated in the filing of a formal complaint with the Federal Communication Commission calling for a full investigation into the construction and operation of this station.
I have signed and submitted to the Federal Communications Commission a sworn affidavit stating the following:
"Peter Cavanaugh, a resident of Oakhurst, California, hereby states the following under penalty of perjury:
I am an occasional listener of radio station KOLS-LP. I have noticed:
A. KOLS-LP does not broadcast any local programming;
B. It does not have a main studio;
C. It does not have a political file;
D. It does not have a public inspection file and
E. It has not filed ownership reports.
I am disappointed that KOLS-LP is in flagrant violation of the Commission's rules and urge that the Commission initiate an investigation."
After considerable evaluation and review by Washington attorneys and several informal discussions with regulators, it was determined best to file an initial narrative limited to certain easily verifiable technical violations, leaving many other pertinent issues subject to eventual investigative inclusion. Even so, the complaint is 65 pages long.
KOLS-LP broadcasts from the roof of a vacation home in Cedar Valley, a full 7.5 miles from our Oakhurst town center at the junction of California Highways 41 and 49. Father Daniel White of Winnetka, California - a Los Angeles suburb - is said to own the home. White is listed as President of "Radio Catholic" - a self-created, nonprofit religious corporation. Although the KOLS-LP call letters are alleged to represent "Our Lady of the Sierra," Pastor Joel Davadilla did not authorize the project and has stated he knows little about it. Nor does the Diocese of Fresno.
One hundred percent of current KOLS-LP airtime exclusively consists of national EWTN programming originating in Birmingham, Alabama - this fare already easily accessible in Oakhurst on Sirius/XM Radio, both Dish and Direct Satellite TV, and via the Internet.
Founded by 92-year-old Franciscan nun Mother Mary Angelica, EWTN - "Eternal Word Television" is the largest religious media network in the world, reaching over 230 million television households in more than 140 countries and territories. EWTN does not permit inclusion of non-Catholic religious programming in its broadcast day.
Repeating my closing words from a November column, we need "Community Radio" in Oakhurst to be truly "catholic" in nature, a word defined in Webster's as being "of general scope or value; all-inclusive; broad in sympathy, tastes and understanding."
That means for all people, parties, pursuits and persuasions.
This includes input from the 20-plus local churches of different denominations highlighted on page 6A of last week's Easter issue of The Sierra Star.
And the 75-plus area groups and organizations listed on page 7A's "Community Calendar."
As intended.

Log in to make the most of Hymnary.org collections.
1 The Lord is our defense and aid,
the strength whereby we stand;
When we with woe are much dismayed
he is our help at hand.
2 Though earth do move, we will not fear,
though mountains high and steep
Be thrust and hurl-ed here and there
within the sea so deep:
3 No, though the sea do rage so sore,
that all the banks it spills,
And though it overflow the shore,
and beat down mighty hills:
4 For one fair flood doth send abroad
his pleasant streams apace,
To glad the city of our God,
and wash his holy place.
5 In midst of her the Lord doth dwell,
she never can decay,
All things against her that rebel
the Lord will surely slay.
6 The heathen folk and kingdoms fear,
the people make a noise,
The earth doth melt and disappear,
when God puts forth his voice.
7 The Lord of hosts doth take our part,
to us he hath an eye:
Our hope of health with all our heart
on Jacob's God doth lie.
8 Come here, and see with mind and thought
the working of our God,
What wonders he himself hath wrought
in all the world abroad:
9 By him all wars are hushed and gone,
though countries did conspire;
Their bows and spears he brake each one,
their chariots burnt with fire.
10 Be still therefore, and know that I
am God, and therefore will
Among the heathen people be
highly exalted still.
11 The Lord of hosts doth us defend,
he is our strength and tow'r;
On Jacob's God we do depend,
and on his mighty pow'r.
