Red Mass Group has learned that the Allocation Committee of the Massachusetts Republican State Committee has informed seventeen delegates and alternates that they are not qualified to go to the convention in Tampa. The reason given is failure to return the proper, signed, affidavit by the given deadline. Allocation Committee Chairman, Ed McGrath, told Red Mass Group in an emailed statement that, "no one who was elected as a delegate and who has followed the rules has been disqualified so far."
The Massachusetts Republican State Committee held congressional district caucuses on Saturday April 28, 2012 to elect 27 delegates and 27 alternates. Before being allowed to stand for election, each nominee for delegate was asked to pledge their support to Mitt Romney per the rules for selection of delegates of the Massachusetts GOP.
Stephen Zykofsky, the Chairman of the committee that set the rules for the selection of delegates, sees this as an important distinction. Zykofsky told Red Mass Group that the rules only apply to nominees for delegate, not those elected at the April 28, 2012 caucus. Zykofsky believes that, "the state party was in its rights to ask for affirmation of support for Mitt Romney before the caucuses were held. That affirmation could have come in the form of a pledge, which was done, or in the form of an affidavit. The rules do not call for affirmation after the election is over."
Zykofsky does stress though that he told elected delegates that they should sign the affidavit, to avoid any pitfalls.
Brad Wyatt, the leader of the Ronald Reagan Liberty Slate, said in an emailed statement, "Disappointed that the Allocation Committee would ignore the Republican voters of the Massachusetts Congressional Districts by refusing to even communicate with the delegates after numerous attempts to reach out to the allocation committee to discuss problems/issues with legality of the affidavit. The continued arrogant attitudes and clear manipulation of the rules by members of MassGOP leadership are a perfect example of why almost 90% Massachusetts residents refuse to be a Registered Republican and active in the Massachusetts Republican Party."
Wyatt continued, "Some elected delegates candidates had less than 40 hours to review, sign, notarize, and return an unprecented affidavit with an arbitrary deadline to MassGOP headquarters. Ultimately, many elected Ronald Reagan Unity Liberty slate delegate candidates that were just de-certified by the Allocation Committee had turned in the original, MassGOP affidavit by the time of their decision."
Wyatt went on to say that given Rand Paul's endorsement of Mitt Romney last week that he thought the "numerous olive branches" offered by the Liberty Slate would have been accepted.
Wyatt concluded his statement by saying, "The mishandling of issues regarding the Provisional Ballots, 5th District Challenge, and Affidavits will only harden the resolve of the Liberty Caucus supporters, to work with the grassroots activists to re-build the Republican Party in Massachusetts, and help promote Liberty issues such as Auditing the Federal Reserve, and requiring Congressional Declaration of War to fund a war. Most likely, multiple challenges will be filed to the RNC rules committee, as the MassGOP leadership decides to waste its time and resources fighting with loyal, hardworking, grassroots activists rather than defeating Democrats."
Sources with knowledge of the proceedings of the Allocation Committee, stated that the rulings were promulgated, with as much speed as possible, to give those delegates affected enough time to appeal to the Republican National Committee. According to Rule 20 of the RNC the affected elected delegates have until July 28th to do so.

Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center has set Monday, Aug. 10, for the opening of Lewiston Primary Care, its sixth family medicine site serving Niagara and northern Erie counties.
Located at 4600 Military Road, Suite A, just south of the border between the towns of Lewiston and Niagara, the site has operated for many years as the medical office of Dr. Komal Chandan, a beloved family medicine physician who has served the community for 23 years.
Chandan is continuing to receive and treat patients there as a member of the Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center staff.
The Lewiston Primary Care Center will see several other changes in the future.
Stephen Uslinov, M.D., a board-certified family medicine physician, will begin seeing patients Aug. 10. In September, psychiatrist Lauren Uslinov, M.D., and psychiatric nurse practitioner Vivian Gerard will begin office hours.
Dr. Lauren Uslinov, who is married to Dr. Stephen Uslinov, is a former chief resident of the Hennepin County Medical Center-Regions Hospital Psychiatry Training Program in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota, and a member of the American Psychiatric Association.
Gerard, a graduate of the SUNY Buffalo School of Nursing, has worked for Lakeshore Behavioral Health and the Chautauqua County Department of Mental Health. She is a former director of outpatient treatment at Northpointe Council Inc.
"The connection between emotional and physical wellbeing is irrefutable," said Memorial Vice President Sanjay Chadha, who oversees Memorial's primary care and outpatient mental health services. "Offering psychiatric services under the same roof as family medicine just makes good sense for holistic health."
Niagara Falls Memorial also operates primary care/family medicine offices in downtown Niagara Falls, Grand Island and North Tonawanda, along with two such offices at the Summit Healthplex in Wheatfield. To learn more, call 716-278-4569.

Forget romance! Check out these 8 epic bromances
Bromance has become an important staple in Korean dramas. At times friendships between the male characters can be so endearing that viewers come to cheer them on just as much as the main romantic couple. Here are some of my favorite bromantic pairings!
1. Go Nam Soon (Lee Jong Suk) and Park Heung Soo (Kim Woo Bin) in School 2013.
These two are beyond adorable. Not only did their troubled friendship in School 2013 steal the hearts of viewers, but these models turned actors are actual friends in real life! I hope we can see more of their fantastic bromance in future projects.
2. Geol Oh (Yoo Ah In) and Yeo Rim (Song Joong Ki) in Sungkyunkwan Scandal
Who could forget the heartfelt and hilarious friendship between sullen Geol Oh and flamboyant Yeo Rim? These tight friends really knew what it meant to give each other support, regardless of the circumstances. Dramaland could use many more epic bromances like this one!
3. Hwang Tae Kyung (Jang Geun Suk) Kang Shin Woo (Jung Yong Hwa) and Jeremy (Lee Hong Ki) in You're Beautiful
Nothing quite brings friends closer together than living and working with each other 24 hours a day. These three may have had some trouble due to their common love interest, but their bromantic chemistry as band members stole my heart from the very beginning. Does anyone else wish A.N.Jell was a real band?
Bonus Points: Check out this hilarious scene where Tae Kyung explains what fan fiction is to the innocent Go Mi Nam! It also gives a glimpse at a different kind of bromance...
4. Kim Tan (Lee Min Ho) and Choi Young Do (Kim Woo Bin) in Heirs
Kim Tan and Young Do may spend the majority of the show fighting over Eun Sang, but their brief moments of friendship really hit the right notes. What's not to love about these two sharing headphones and drinking mango smoothies?
5. Song Sam Dong (Kim Soo Hyun) and Jin Gook (Ok Taec Yeon) in Dream High
While this is another bromance that was threatened by a girl, these two worked past their romantic troubles to remain close friends. I still laugh about the scene pictured above where Taecyeon's character tries to confirm if Kim Soo Hyun stole his underwear. Nothing quite says friendship like sharing clothing!
See the last great swordsman defend his people and transform a nation in The Joseon Gunman, starring Lee Joon Ki
6. Yoon Yoon Jae (Seo In Guk) and Kang Joon Hee (Hoya) in Answer Me 1997
The bittersweet friendship between Yoon Jae and Joon Hee is a bond that has stayed with me long after I finished Answer Me 1997. If you haven't watched this fantastic drama yet, their unique bromance should be enough reason to check it out!
7. Do Min Joon (Kim Soo Hyun) and Cheon Yoon Jae (Ahn Jae Hyun) in My Love From Another Star
While late to developm, the friendship between everyone's favorite alien professor and Song Yi's little brother was adorable to watch. I especially loved how fascinated Yoon Jae was about Min Joon's alien backstory. The E.T. reenactment scene was hilarious!
8. Go Eun Chan (Yoon Eun Hye) and Choi Han Kyul (Gong Yoo) in Coffee Prince
Last but not least, I had to include Coffee Prince on my list. While these two later develop into an official romantic couple, they have some wonderful moments of bromance while Eun Chan poses as a boy. Their strong underlying friendship is a large part of what makes this pairing so unforgettable!
What is your favorite bromance pairing? Which other epic friendships would you add to this list? Please share your thoughts below!

My PC acted "haunted" before "dying"...FTW happened?
Hey all,
You guys are my favourite source of info on the net, so I wanted to ask you if you have any idea what happened to this PC:
I built a system for my Dad from my spares and some newegg stuff. Here are the deets:
ASUS P5N-E SLI Motherboad [Lastest BIOS rev]
Pentium Core 2 Duo E6600 [No OC]
Sparkle 8800GT Video card
WD 1TB HDD SATA 3GB/s
FDD [non-USB]
4Gb DDR2 Patroit PSD22G6672/K 1x1Gb + 1x2Gb
RAIDMAX 700+ PSU w/ "fancy red tribal patterning" (forget actual model#)
ViewSonic VX22xxx-LED (again, I forget. it was gone @ the time)
I got it up and running, but Newegg sold me a bunk monitor (white spots) and as you may know, it's a bitch to RMA anything like that. Before I sent it off, I had used UBCD to test everything and partition the HDD for Windows 7 x64.
I also had booted some Linux Mint/Ununtu/Pinguy OS 10.10, and some other non-Debian distros as "Live", CD/DVD or persistent/regular USB installs to muck around, but I did no BIOS or hardware messing other than the UBCD Partitioning & ASUS BIOS update (from BIOS).
Here's where it gets WEIRD!
So while I'm waiting for his monitor, I left the system off, but plugged in, w/o video.
Everything worked great last boot...then...
A few days later, I glance over at it and notice EVERY LED LIGHT is FLASHING on my system!
I'm talking HD light, Power light, DVD LIGHT!!! PS/2 keyboard lights (all three), USB MOUSE LIGHT?!?! All in sequence!!
In all my 15+ years of building/fixing/using PCs of all kinds, I've never seen anything like it! I mean, for God sake, the USB mouse laser light may have even been doing it...
No pattern. Just a continuous flash from every light the damn thing had every 3/4 sec. or so... WTF?
I hit the power button, but nothing happened. I switched the PSU power off and on, then everything goes off... I did the usual stuff you do... BIOS battery removal for several hours with pins set to wipe BIOS settings (unplugged), then retried. This time, when I switched the PSU on, the board light didn't turn on.
And there we are. It's apparently dead as a dog now, and I just wasted 2 hours searching Fry's for a Core 2 Duo/DDR2 (non-f*king Micro-ATX, pls!) board, only to buy a DDR3 by mistake.
So... Anybody have a clue what happened to my PC? Was it channeling a dead person, or did I miss the day of PC 101 class when this subject was taught? Needless to say, I Googled my brains out and checked the ASUS forums carefully, trying to find another instance, or I wouldn't be posting.
Thanks for any insight.

Crazt Lights
Oh, dude! If that fixes it, I'll name a kid after you!
OK. I think it may be toast and you may be right. For good measure, I'll swap out the PSU and just try it before buying another mobo, which I assumed was borked.
Still, what/how could something cause all the lights to flash? Anyone know?
|My System Specs
|16 Apr 2011
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit with SP1
I know during the bios post screen that flashing lights can be used as error codes to identify problems with the bios or hardware - by identifying which lights are active and the sequence in which they light up you can use this to diagnose problems
|My System Specs
|16 Apr 2011
BIOS POST beep and LED error codes
Yep. Although this mobo uses beeps, like 1 long and 2 short means memory, etc...
The only LED error codes I've seen on PCs were in laptops, like Dells.
Also, there was no sequence. There are beep codes that are just continuous, so maybe the same goes for LED's, but not on ALL the devices, including USB, which shouldn't have any driver support without software, especially a laser mouse. Same for the DVD drive light.
I am totally boggled... I'll check RAIDMAX PSU site to see if they do this, but I doubt this thread will ever have a fix or explanation, based on what I've found.

Check behind your motherboard for one of the brass standoff/screwholes in the wrong place - shorting the motherboard
Double check you put the usb to case front headers/plugs the right way around and over the correct pins!
Double check your power supply/computer case connections to the motherboard
(on-off/reset etc)
Try repeatedly pressing the 'E' button on your kEy-board!

So, aside from two helpful, but (unfortunately) unproductive posts (thank you guys, I appreciate the input and gave you both you rep) and one snide remark, I'm hearing nothing...
I'm gonna assume that the lack posts show that most or all of you Guru level guys are just as stumped as me and have seen nothing like this, and maybe even think I'm lying.
I swear on my personal moral reputation that this DID HAPPEN just as I said. If you know me (or anyone else with CFS) you'd know I wouldn't be wasting my time on a post I didn't really need help on badly. I'm too lazy...
LOL... Do I get rep points for f**king up a PC in a totally unique and unfixable way?
Okay, if you have no ideas, can anyone suggest a decent (non-Micro) ATX board still out, that support both DDR2 (4 slots) and a Core 2 Duo E6600? Only one SLI slot and Gbit LAN is necessary.
If not, any (wincing) good Micro-ATX board/Case combos with the same that'll accommodate the other hardware?
Thanks! I really do appreciate you guys helping me on this.
PS: I hope you guys will forgive me for not understanding the (rep) button until recently.

[Case Closed Due to Lack of Evidence]
Well, they were all good suggestions... But sometimes, you have to know when to give up. The time I wasted with that machine could have bought half a dozen comparable PC's at the rate I bill for work.
My guess it was the PSU, but I replaced the case, motherboard and PSU, since they are all so cheap these days. It took me a few hours to put it all together and load Windows 7. Totally cake. Here's what I used to replace the "questionable" hardware:
MSI G41M4-F (Core 2 Duo/DDR2 compatible)
Antec 650w PSU
Antec Sonata Case
It runs great now. My tech friends think it may have been the case/PSU combo, but agreed it was freaky. It was the USB/DVD LEDs lighting up that made them suspect the case as well. Though I did get two other boards running in it later, I still decided to junk it.
Thanks everyone, for your help & input!

Damon Lindelof to write original sci-fi film for Disney
Damon Lindelof has made a seven figure deal with Disney to do an original (yes, people still have original ideas) sci-fi film for Disney. Lindelof will write and produce the project.
Deadline says that they could not squeeze any details out of anybody. The only thing they got was a working title, 1952. One of the other things that they heard was that the project will possibly have "multiple platform aspirations". So not only will it be made into a film but it could also be a game, series, cartoon, secret episode of LOST, ride, etc.
This is the first film that Lindelof is planning from the ground up. The project came out of a few meetings that the writer had with Disney's production president Sean Bailey and senior exec Brigham Taylor.
Right now, Lindelof is working diligently with Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci on the sequel to STAR TREK so it can start shooting at the end of this year or early next year. He's also apparently apologized to January Jones for saying she sucks at acting. A few days ago he tweeted this, �Emma Frost�s THREE mutant powers: Telepathy, Transformation to Solid Diamond and last but not least, Sucking at Acting.� It made me laugh my ass off. But last night he tweeted this, �I am only slightly less disgusted with the amount of play my X-Men comment got than I am with myself for making it in the first place.�
|Extra Tidbit:
|I'm sure people got offended about the January Jones comment and started saying stuff about how LOST ruined their lives or something.

The Soft Pouch™ - Digital D-Series pouches from OP/TECH USA offer ideal protection against impact, moisture and dust. Avoid expensive repair and cleaning bills by protecting your camera while in use or in storage. These easy-access neoprene cases fit most film and digital cameras.
The pouches in the larger styles were designed with enough room in the lens area that a lens hood can be mounted backwards in the storage position and still fit in the pouch. Non-marring snaps securely close the flap cover on the bottom of the pouch. A unique retaining strap attaches the case around the lens or to the tripod mount so that it is out of the field of view when taking a picture, or it can be fastened to a belt or bag strap.
These pouches are great for use in the field as they are lightweight, weather resistant and the case closes around the neck strap so that the neck strap is still usable. This makes the pouches a streamlined and convenient way to protect your gear. There's no need to carry the bulk of an oversized bag when you can have the protection and convenience of the Soft Pouch™ - Digital D-Series.
Use the Product Finder to find the right size for your camera!

D-SLR Pouch: 6" x 4.5" x 6"

The law prohibits employers from discriminating against employees because of their sex. Both male and female employees are protected by this law.
However, an employer generally may make employment decisions based on gender if it is reasonably necessary for normal business operations. For example, a theatre may hire only female actors to play female characters. Employment decisions based on stereotypes of men and women—rather than reasonable necessity—are impermissible. For example, an employer cannot refuse to consider female applicants for jobs that men have traditionally performed, and vice versa.
Pregnancy discrimination and sexual harassment are also forms of sex discrimination.
Unfortunately, recent studies indicate that gender and sex discrimination is on the rise in the workplace. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has filed an increasing number of charges for sex based discrimination over the past several years: 23,094 charges in 2004 and 28,372 charges in 2008.
Another report indicates that gender discrimination was the reason for 10% more of the lawsuits filed against employers in 2005 than it was in 2003 (In 2003, 38% of lawsuits filed claimed gender discrimination, while 48% of lawsuits filed in 2005 were based on gender discrimination.) Additional research shows that women continue to earn less money relative to men for the same work. According to the National Women's Law Center, in 2008, women who worked full-time throughout the year earned only 77 cents per dollar earned by their male counterparts. On a more optimistic note, President Obama signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act almost immediately after taking office in January 2009, which expands the length of time during which women may file equal pay claims under federal law.
Employees should be treated fairly regardless of sex. Nichols Kaster continues to be on the forefront of the effort to remedy past discrimination and prevent further inequities in the treatment of female employees. For more information about these issues, see the following websites:

Nathaniel has enjoyed several smart winners in Europe in recent weeks.
Today the exciting Kastano won the Preis Vom Gestüt Graditz - Home of Lucky Lion by over 3 lengths at Baden-Baden.
Trainer Marcus Klug said: "I've always thought alot of him. He's my best two-year-old and my main Derby hope for next year. "
Owned by Newsells Park Stud and Gestüt Rottgen, Kastano made all the running and kept on well to win on his second start, on his first start he finished second to Langtang, subsequent winner of the Gr.3 Preis des Winterfavoriten.
Bred by Gestüt Rottgen, the two-year-old colt is a half-brother to the Gr.1-placed Kassiano and the Br.2 Diana Trial-third Kasalla.
On Sunday 16th October Nathaniel sired another smart winner in Falcon Wings, who comfortably won the Prix des Anemones at Lyon Parilly. Trained by Nicolas Clement for owner/breeder Muteb Bin Abdullah, the two-year-old colt holds an entry for the Gr.1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud.
Out of a half-sister to Gr.1 St Leger winner Rule of Law, Cast In Gold (Elusive Quality), Falcon Wings is a half-brother to three winners, namely the Gr.3 Sweet Solera Stakes third Wedding Ring (Oasis Dream).
Just four days before at Lyon Parilly, Palombe readily won the Prix des Orchidee Maiden and was Nathaniel's first winner in France for trainer Andre Fabre and owner/breeder Baron Edouard de Rothschild
Palombe is out of Grey Lily (Boreal), a half-sister to the dual French Classic and Gr.1 Prix d'Ispahan winner Golden Lilac (Galileo).
2017 certainly looks to be a potentially exciting year for Nathaniel, a brilliant three-year-old and four-year-old from a Classic family. A family who improve dramatically from two to three - between 30lbs to 50lbs.

New York Loses More Jobs
New York lost 25,600 private-sector jobs last month _ most of them in New York City _ because of economic losses from the Sept. 11 attack, state officials said Thursday.
The New York Labor Department also revised its estimate of private jobs lost in October from 62,000 to 63,000.
Hardest hit over the past two months were New York City's finance, insurance, real estate and retail trade sectors, according to Gov. George Pataki's chief economist, Stephen Kagann.
Overall, the state's unemployment rate grew from 5 percent in October to 5.4 percent in November. The corresponding national jobless rate went from 5.4 percent to 5.7 percent.
New York City's unemployment rate increased 0.7 percentage points last month to 6.9 percent.
Counting private job losses of 18,200 in September, the state has lost about 106,800 private jobs since September.
In a year-to-year comparison, which Kagann said is a more accurate indication of the employment market, the state lost 92,200 private-sector jobs between November 2000 and November 2001. That was a loss of 1.3 percent.
Worst-hit over the last year was New York City, where private-sector jobs fell by 83,700 or 2.6 percent. That is the city's largest year-to-year decline since June 1992.
Kagann said the job loss figures over the past year are still better than those the state experienced during the damaging recession of the early 1990s.

There are a large variety of ways that drug overdoses can be avoided. To comprehend heroin addiction therapy, it's important to know how heroin impacts the brain. If you prefer to stop heroin permanently, the best method to take care of heroin withdrawal is under medical supervision. Treating addicts isn't simple. It is not a form of treatment for heroin addiction.
There are a number of addicts who aren't able to afford to attend an inpatient therapy program or cannot put their lives on hold to attend inpatient therapy programs. If you think that you are coping with kratom use for virtually any reason and you're unable to stop all on your own, treatment services are readily available to assist. More long-term treatments are necessary to help individuals remain in recovery, and we remain excited regarding the possibility of probuphine to be the first of lots of new alternatives for those who have opioid addiction.
If your heroin addiction controls each facet of your everyday living, an inpatient program could possibly be the best choice for you. In regards to picking a treatment facility, there is an abundance of alternatives. It's still a good idea to have an expert help from doctors. however, it isn't right to discourage its usage.
The body cannot handle it and, consequently, they're overdosing and dying. Peyote addiction treatment is readily available for those who wish to quit employing this drug and find much healthier ways to relish their lives. Ordinarily, the brain utilizes dopamine for a kind of courier, carrying messages from one location to another.
Naloxone it does not have any effect in the lack of opioids. Before you take a very first dosage of Suboxone, you'll need to abstain for some time from the rest of the opiates, and you'll need to be feeling the beginnings of withdrawal pain. Heroin withdrawal symptoms will affect your entire body and mental wellbeing.
Heroin use can also lead to pulmonary edema. Heroin is among the absolute most addictive drugs on Earth and can lead to users to be hooked for life with only one use. It was created in Germany during WWII. There is not anything on the planet so irresistibly contagious as laughter and very good humor. Though it might be encouraging to look at that all these addicts are receiving the help they need, it's discouraging to believe that all these men and women are managing heroin abuse in this nation. The outlook for a person who has overdosed on drugs is based on the scenario.
It takes approximately one or two hours for peyote to begin producing its intoxicating results. On the opposite hand, in instances wherein prescribed medication are liable for the condition, it can take a full day before the symptoms start surfacing. Patients are requested to select a massive stone and hold it for 1520 minutes daily when verbalizing their problems, either to another individual or to themselves.
No singular all-natural cure for vitiligo like a solitary herb to apply to affected areas exists. Heroin treatment's most up-to-date development isn't traditional counselling or even meditation, but a highly effective little drug named Vivitrol. The precise treatment plan is based on the seriousness of the overdose.

Stones in the prostate are quite common and usually do not cause any difficulties, but they can grow over time and this can become an issue and may need to be surgically removed if they become large enough to cause difficulty with passing urine, so your son will need monitoring over time by a doctor.
If you have not seen your GP regarding your son's urine infection we would suggest you do so as soon as possible as he may need antibiotics depending on the type of infection.

Maxx Sunglasses is a local family owned company based out of Monument, Colorado. Rick and Nancy Milner started this company in 2004, selling sunglasses from bright yellow tents and trailers in Colorado Springs. Customers began spreading the word and coming back to their trailers to repurchase the incredible HD lens that improved their golf game. Shortly after, Rick began making sales to golf courses and pro shops, while Nancy packed orders and samples from their kitchen table and sent them to pro shops across the US.
High Definition lenses enhance contrast by reducing the scattered blue light that causes objects to appear "flat" against backgrounds. Contrast is improved so objects appear more sharply defined. Colors are bright and vibrant. Glare is virtually eliminated, allowing your eyes to relax and see everything remarkably crisp and clear. The HD lens cuts through haze and glare for optimum visual clarity, even at a distance. Sharpens contrast while maintaining a natural, no-distorted color balance.

*Membership spots not really limited!
by Punchy » Sat Jan 11, 2014 4:50 pmIn amongst all of the surprise and excitement over Brubaker and Phillips signing exclusive contracts with Image, one little fact seems to have gone under the radar… that Fatale is set to end with #24. With only 5 issues left after this one, we're really in the endgame now, and with this issue, Bru sets that up. The story of Jo in Seattle comes to an end, and the present-day framing sequences with Nicolas Lash take another dark turn. I know a lot of people haven't liked Fatale as much as previous Brubaker/Phillips' collaborations, but I have, so whilst I'm sad to see it come to an end, I'm very excited to see what that ending entails.
Back in 90s Seattle, everyone is reeling after the events of #18, where Amsterdam attempted to film a music video starring Jo and inadvertently caused a bit of a riot. Jo has ran away, getting on a train to Chicago, and the band themselves are freaking out, worried that the Cops are going to come to their house and find the dead body of Skip. One particular Cop does come around, and you guessed it, it's Wulf, the serial killer who is obsessed with Jo. Somehow, she senses he's going to attack her friends, so she comes back, but it's too late, he's already killed Darcy, Tom and Jon, and he's about to sacrifice Lance in some kind of creepy way. I guess the runes on Lance's body are what drew Jo back? I think so anyway. Jo is able to kill Wulf, and she and Lance escape to the middle of nowhere.
The story of the band is all over the media, and Lance is being blamed for it, he's set up as a Satanist who killed his fellow bandmembers. Jo tries to help him out of his funk, even sleeping with him for one last time, but he seems irreparably damaged, and she leaves, just one more fucked-up man in her wake.
There is a loose end here, and it's the whereabouts of the videotape of Jo's music video. It turns out that Sommerset/Bishop owns the record label, so he has it in his possession. I'm surprised we didn't get a bit more of confrontation between him and Jo in this arc, but I imagine that he, and the music video, will play a large role in the final storyline.
The issue ends back in the present day, with Nelson taking Nicolas to their final destination, and it turns out that, as I think many people suspected, Nelson is actually Lance, and he's even crazier than before. He's going to do the same thing to Nicolas that Wulf did to him back in the 90s, and carve runes on him and call Jo to him, so he can see her one last time. I think it's very cool how the Seattle story is a lot more closely linked to the present-day stuff than the other arcs, obviously it's more recent, but with the 1970s arc, everyone affected by Jo pretty much died. Here, the sins of the past really are coming for her, which is basically what Noir is.
Sean Phillips' art was amazing as always, and really, things are set up very nicely indeed for the final arc. I'm very excited that Brubaker and Phillips are committed to working together at Image for the foreseeable future, they are one of the best teams in comics, and I will read whatever they do.
by guitarsmashley » Sat Jan 11, 2014 7:03 pmThis series has been so damn good. I started out not liking the first issue. I'm actually upset that it will be ending but Fade out sounds so damn good. At least we know for the next 5 years we'll be getting a Brubaker and Phillips book once a month.

Student or Learner
Dear teacher,
I am confused about using countable and uncountable nouns.
Using correctly between two words "fruit"(uncountable) and"fruits"(countable) is extremely difficult to me.
Please help me.
The noun "fruit" is non-count,
I like fruit, animals, and colors.
*I like fruits. (ungrammatical)
The noun "fruits" is somewhat a new addition to the English language. It is uses in the produce field. You might come across it on a sign at your local foodstore. It refers to more than one kind of fruit.

In a move that surprised no one, former USC quarterback Matt Cassel was released by the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday with two years left on his contract.
News broke weeks ago that Kansas City had agreed to trade for former San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback Alex Smith. That deal became official on Wednesday, the same day the Chiefs signed former New Orleans Saints backup Chase Daniel to be their No. 2 quarterback.
Cassel signed a six-year, $63-million contract with the Chiefs four years ago. At the time, he was coming off a magical season with the New England Patriots, leading the team to a 10-5 record as an unknown backup thrust into the spotlight when Tom Brady suffered a season-ending injury in the season opener.
Before that, though, Cassel had completed just 22 of 39 passes for 153 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in his previous three seasons with the Patriots. And that was after four years of sitting behind Heisman Trophy winners Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart at USC, where he completed 20 of 33 passes for 192 yards, no touchdowns and one interception.

The ASN Eight: Michigan making a move in the Big Ten
With traditional powers Minnesota and Wisconsin not having dominant seasons and Penn State and Ohio State young programs still rising, the Wolverines have put together the top-ranked offense in the country to move up to sixth in our ASN Eight rankings.
The offense was in high gear this past weekend as the Wolverines scored 15 times in a 9-2, 6-2 sweep over rival Michigan State. Michigan is as talented offensively as any team in the country, scoring at a 4.6 goals per game clip while its power play ranks fourth at nearly 28 percent.
Sophomore Zach Werenski, who had been rumored to be leaving Michigan for the NHL after he captained the U.S. World Junior Team to a bronze medal in Finland over the holiday break, not only returned last weekend, he scored a goal in each game.
Big Blue is now 8-1-2 over the past 11 games and is eighth in the Pairwise rankings.
There was quite a bit of movement in the ASN Eight this week, as teams from the Rocky Mountain state wreaked havoc on their opponents — Denver sweeping at Omaha and Colorado College splitting with St. Cloud State.

February 23, 2017 00:54 ET
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Feb. 23, 2017) - Trican Well Service ("Trican" or the "Company") (TSX:TCW) announced its Fourth Quarter and Year End 2016 results earlier today. The following press release should be read in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis, the audited annual consolidated financial statements and subsequent notes of Trican for the year ended December 31, 2016, as well as the Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2015. All of the above 2016 documents will be available before markets open on Thursday, February 23, 2017 on Trican's website at www.tricanwellservice.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
Continuing Operations - Financial Review
(1) Trican makes reference to operating income / (loss), adjusted operating income / (loss), adjusted general and administrative expenses. These measures are not recognized under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are considered non-GAAP measures. Management believes that, in addition to gross profit / (loss) and profit / (loss), operating income / (loss), adjusted operating income / (loss); and adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted corporate expenses are useful supplemental measures.
Investors should be cautioned that operating income / (loss) and adjusted operating income / (loss) should not be construed as an alternative to gross profit / (loss) or profit / (loss) determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of Trican's performance. Trican's method of calculating operating income / (loss), adjusted operating income / (loss), adjusted general and administrative expenses and adjusted corporate expenses may differ from that of other companies and accordingly may not be comparable to measures used by other companies. See also "Non-GAAP Disclosure" section of this report.
Trican experienced continued improvement in our business in the fourth quarter as we generated a positive adjusted operating income of $1.1 million in the quarter, which was $4.3 million higher than adjusted operating income in Q3 2016. Activity increased substantially during the quarter which resulted in an undersupply of manned equipment in the Canadian market and allowed us to increase pricing roughly 10% from end of Q3 2016 to Q1 2017.
Trican continued to pay down debt as we received approximately $73.5 million CAD in proceeds from the previous sale of our completion tool business and the sale of a part of our investment in the Keane Group in the United States.
Consolidated revenue increased by 47% over the third quarter of 2016, driven by a 10% increase in jobs performed and continued growth in frac stages and proppant pumped per well.
Utilization of our active equipment was below expectations at the start of the quarter due to wet weather and a delayed freeze up, however, it increased rapidly in mid November when freeze up occurred and remained high throughout the second half of the quarter. December activity remained high as more work was performed during the Christmas break and the break was shorter than anticipated. The Company continued to operate approximately 50% of its equipment during the quarter. Our headcount increased as we converted two fracturing crews from twelve hour crews to twenty-four hour crews which expanded our fracturing capacity coming into the 2017 first quarter. Three cementing crews were also added by reactivating parked equipment during the quarter. Hiring qualified personnel to activate parked equipment has become the most significant challenge to meeting current industry demand.
Average pricing for our customers marginally increased between Q3 2016 and Q4 2016. Pricing for most of our anchor customers slightly increased; however, pricing for spot work is estimated to have increased by approximately 10%. 2017 first quarter average pricing is expected to increase approximately 10% relative to Q3 2016 exit levels.
The Company has been focused on adjusting its cost structure to the level of activity and pricing environment experienced during the cyclical lows experienced during the past two years. There was some additional consolidation of facilities in the quarter which resulted in meaningful severance costs being incurred. Management believes that we have exited the 2016 fourth quarter with an efficient cost structure from a cost perspective and we believe this cost structure can handle the level of work being performed during the 2017 first quarter. Management's current expectations are that activity will continue to increase after spring break-up and our cost structure will likely increase at that time to handle the demands of increased activity; however, management believes maintaining a disciplined and efficient cost structure as activity increases will be critical to improving profitability during 2017.
The operating loss from continuing operations was $7.4 million and adjusted operating income was $1.1 million for the quarter. A $5.5 million write-down of obsolete spare parts inventory combined with severance costs of $1.6 million, amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.7 million and an additional $0.7 million in equity-settled share-based compensation expense accounts for the difference between the operating loss from continuing operations and adjusted operating income.
In January 2017, Trican sold its shares in National Oilwell Varco ("NOV") and monetized a portion of its Investments in Keane for net proceeds of approximately USD $20.7 million and USD $28.4 million, respectively. The proceeds were used to further pay down Trican's outstanding long-term debt.
The partial monetization of the Investments in Keane was a result of Keane's initial public offering on January 20, 2017. Keane's IPO valuation was significantly higher than its valuation as a private company and, as a result, Trican has increased the value of its Investments in Keane to $231.0 million.
Demand for our services steadily increased from the 2016 third quarter into the 2016 fourth quarter. This trend has intensified at the start of the 2017 first quarter with activity significantly picking up during the first week of January and continuing to the date of this report. All our active pressure pumping equipment is expected to be at or near full utilization until spring break-up in March. We activated one 12-hour 30,000 HP fracturing crew midway through the first quarter and will work to convert this to a twenty-four-hour crew as we hire additional people. We also activated six cementing crews in Q4 and early in Q1. Cementing demand remains very high at the start of 2017 and we anticipate it will remain high throughout the year based on current commodity prices. First quarter financial results are expected to reflect a meaningful increase in activity. The timing of break-up in March remains the only question regarding total activity levels expected during the quarter.
The high level of demand being experienced during the 2017 first quarter has resulted in some customers increasing their work programs during the second quarter. As a result, we expect second quarter activity levels to be considerably higher on a year-over-year basis. The second quarter work was priced at a discount relative to first quarter pricing; however, the incremental revenue from the increased workload is expected to cover a meaningful portion of our fixed cost structure which should allow us to improve our second quarter financial results and maintain our headcount in anticipation of activity picking up coming out of Spring break-up.
The increased activity levels and equipment utilization during the 2016 fourth quarter resulted in a pressure pumping market that became meaningfully undersupplied with manned equipment. These conditions allowed management to increase pricing by approximately 10% by the beginning of the 2017 first quarter. While the activity and pricing increases obtained to date have improved Trican's EBITDA from negative to positive territory, management believes additional pricing increases are necessary to allow the company to continue to increase its margins to acceptable levels that allow us to run a sustainable business.
The increased activity currently being experienced is a positive indicator that additional pricing increases may be obtained as we emerge from the second quarter activity slowdown due to spring break-up conditions. However, the increased activity levels are resulting in inflationary pressures relating to personnel, proppant, chemicals and third-party hauling costs. If demand continues to increase, we expect the undersupply conditions currently being experienced to persist into the second half of 2017. Difficulties activating parked equipment are expected due to challenges in hiring qualified personnel. We will continue to push for increased pricing from our customers assuming the undersupply conditions persist.
Trican has retired 18000 HP of fracturing capacity. This HP was older pre-2003 light duty equipment and was sold into the US market. This leaves the Company with approximately 250,000 HP active today and 172,000 HP parked. Parked HP remains in good shape and can be reactivated as activity increases. We continue to run approximately 50% of our cement, coil and other pressure pumping equipment.
Estimates regarding re-activating parked equipment are not possible at this time. Meaningful discussions with our customers regarding expected work programs during the 2017 second half have yet to occur. Management anticipates demand for our services to continue to increase during 2017 assuming oil and gas prices remain constructive. We anticipate making decisions during April regarding equipment re-activation for the second half of the year based on committed customer work programs and our ability to attract and hire qualified personnel to man the equipment.
Keane IPO
On January 20, 2017, FRAC completed its initial public offering ("IPO") and its shares became publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Trican received net proceeds of approximately USD $28.4 million from the secondary offering of the IPO. At a USD $19.00 IPO share price, Keane received a strong valuation for its business and its shares have traded positively increasing approximately 4% since the IPO. As a result, the value of Trican's Investments in Keane has significantly increased. Trican's ownership interest is subject to a six month hold period after the IPO and the timing of further liquidity events are impossible to predict at this time.
Please see the discussion in the non-GAAP Disclosure section of the MD&A for the reconciliation of non-GAAP items to IFRS measures.

To build a pyramid out of cardboard, use four cardboard triangles and one cardboard square. The pieces can then be taped or glued together.Continue Reading
The following example uses a 4-inch base, which is close to scale but not exact. A pyramid's exact dimensions are determined by calculating the apothem and using the Pythagorean theorem.
Step 1: Cut the base
Cut a 4-inch square piece of cardboard.
Step 2: Cut the triangles
The base of the triangles must be the exact same as the sides of the square and about 3 inches tall. However, equilateral triangles will work.
Step 3: Tape the pieces
Tape the triangular pieces together on the longer sides, and then tape the base to the triangular part and decorate if desired.Learn more about Paper Crafts

Bolts Opening Night Tickets in Demand

Demand for tickets for the Tampa Bay Lightning's season-opening game is close to rivaling that for its Stanley Cup series more than a year ago, so the team plans to deal those ducats the fairest way it knows. A lottery will determine which fans will be able to buy at least 1,000 remaining seats for the Bolts' first game since the end of the National Hockey League owners' lockout that ended in July and canceled the 2004-05 season.
