NEW YORK -- On Tuesday, the NHL labor talks appeared headed for a breakthrough. Yesterday, however, there was nothing but a breakup.
The National Hockey League Players' Association rejected two proposals by the owners as union leader Bob Goodenow called management's latest ideas little more "than different approaches on the same theme."
The NHLPA did promise to return to the negotiating table with its own new proposal within the next two days.
But those familiar with yesterday's negotiations said the owners actually offered a version of the players' own plan for a tax on gate receipts and payrolls.

Day two of curfew in Kashmir valley amid uneasy calmOctober 6th, 2008 - 12:14 pm ICT by IANS
Srinagar, Oct 6 (IANS) Indefinite curfew continued across Kashmir valley for the second day Monday in a bid to prevent separatists from marching in this Jammu and Kashmir summer capital. Almost all senior separatist leaders — except hardline leader of the Hurriyat Conference Syed Ali Geelani, who is admitted in a local hospital — were under house arrest and tension was palpable even though there had been no reports of curfew violation.
"There will be no relaxation in the curfew restrictions today. The situation is being reviewed continuously," said a senior official.
Because of non-availability of facilities, no local newspaper could bring out its issue Monday.
Curfew had been imposed at dawn Sunday throughout the valley ahead of the proposed separatist march to Srinagar's city centre Lal Chowk.
Separatists had called for a similar march to Lal Chowk on Sep 25, but that too had been thwarted by the authorities by a preemptive curfew across the valley.
All entry points into the Jammu and Kashmir summer capital have been sealed and are being manned by the police and the paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF).
"We have also taken the assistance of the Rashtriya Rifles at some places to enforce the restrictive orders," a police officer said.

Closer than you think yet a world away.
Experience one of Northern Sonora's newest hotels, Hotel Los Arcos de Sonora, in Banamichi, Mexico, the very heart of the Rio Sonora Valley.
Explore the magic of the lovingly restored 100 year old adobe hacienda. The faithful restoration was completed by expert local craftsman in 2009. Additional new construction created eleven uniquely decorated, romantic guest rooms including two suites. Just one block off the beautiful town plaza, the hotel features classic Sonoran Colonial architecture, large, comfortable rooms with both heat and air conditioning and private bathrooms.
With the addition of our new swimming pool and event area, we now provide a resort experience beyond that of any other hotel in the area.
Let our Los Arcos family welcome you with our unique brand of Sonoran hospitality and invite you to enter and be immersed in our intimate interior courtyard. Let our lush gardens, hummingbirds and the music of cascading water transport you to another place and time.
Luxuriate in our spacious rooms, all well appointed, filled with natural light and locally made rustic furniture, family heirlooms, unexpected treasures and incredibly comfortable beds. Curl up by the window or enjoy the tranquility of the patio.
Enjoy our freshly brewed coffee, spend the evening under the covered ramada in front of the wood burning fireplace or watch the stars from the second floor terraza.
Here is what Rory from California says
"If Mexico offers a promise, Los Arcos delivers.
Rather than just arrive, we were swept in to a colorful, congenial event. Tom and Lynn not only welcomed us into their intimate and convincing colonial style inn, but generously introduced us to the remarkably compelling destination that is Banamichi. Los Arcos is comfortable, charming, and pristine. If serenity and the gentle embrace of something timeless are what you're longing for, then you'll find yourself at home."
At Los Arcos, we follow the concepts of reduce, re-use and recycle. We avoid the use of disposable products; we have re-purposed many objects from the original restoration to new uses and we recycle. We compost and grow some of our own herbs and vegetables. We make use of CFL and LED lighting and use solar lighting in our patio.
Enjoy breakfast and dinner in the patio or dining room (not included in room rate.) We can also prepare lunches for your group with advance notice. Wi-Fi high-speed Internet access is available in every room and throughout the hotel at no charge. We also provide convenient and secure off-street parking.
Plan your stay with us soon. Book Online, e-mail or just give us a call.
Make Hotel Los Arcos your base camp to experience the simple yet authentic experience of Old Mexico. A visit to Banamichi and the Rio Sonora Valley offers an "off the radar" adventure that will forever change the way you think about Mexico and tourism in Mexico
Tom and Lynn Matthews, the owners of Hotel Los Arcos are formerly from Colorado. They also own and operate Turkey Creek Motorcycle Tours and first fell in love with Banamichi while developing touring routes in Sonora Mexico. A second trip and they were hooked. Hotel Los Arcos and Banamichi are now their home. They invite you to visit and discover the magic and wonder of the area that captivated their imagination and what makes Hotel Los Arcos the best choice in Rio Sonora Hotels.

Four people will be inducted into the Pasco High School Hall of Fame at a 6:30 p.m. ceremony Wednesday in the school's auditorium.
Pasco city Councilman Saul Martinez, coach and mentor Danny Carey and community activists Charles "Chuck" and Carol Keltch will be honored during the ceremony, a release said. The public is invited to attend.
Martinez attended Pasco schools and has lived in Pasco since 2001. He is a former Pasco School Board member and has served with several other agencies and organizations. Along with being on the city council, he works at Mission Support Alliance and owns Desert Plateau Transport.
Carey graduated from Pasco High in 1968 and dedicated years of his life to the Young Life program and to coaching track, cross country and softball. He's also been involved in community organizations. He recently retired after working for the city of Richland for 30 years.
The Keltches graduated from Pasco High in 1957 and have supported the community through groups such as the Shriners, Pasco Chamber of Commerce, Tri-City Construction Council, Kiwanis, Masons, Rainbows, DeMolay, Water Follies, and the Miss Tri-Cities Pageant. They retired from their family's construction business in 2000.

Now I just want to state very clearly that I LOVE HERMES – I worship the ground the Hermes horse trots on. This is not a brand, nor product, but a lifestyle, that in my eyes could do no wrong. However, not even the Gods were perfect. Recently I came across a new endevour that Hermes has embarked upon and I found myself almost tottering dangerous out of my chair. When I came to and readjusted myself I thought fervently that I had landed on yet another "street tottering photography fashion site". But to my dissapointment I find that I am indeed in Hermes and, what I have in front of me is a travisty.
Their new project, "J'mon carre" is a website focusing on a few girls who simply have a bunch of scarves and who know how to look shocked for a polaroid, blow a kiss to the lens, and give a "dont I know that I am smashing" to the Nikon. The scarves and bags are merely a backdrop and real reason behind this project utterly lost down the rabbit hole.
Hermes had given in to the now sundry – teetering on annoying "look at me blogs". Those blogs where people take endless pictures of themselves in clothes and post them on the internet. Not that I dont mind seeing what is really out there and not just in the magazines when it comes to fashion –its the endless want of "look at me" that I find tiresome.
The reason I appreciate Hermes is because amoungst all the glitz and glamour they remain un-flashly and sophisticated. They allow their customers, admirers, collectors to feel special and unique and that each of their products is as well. Within this project (or whatever you can call this ) their products say nothing — rather they are being smothered and left to be part of a cheap shot.

Tyndale Monument
This is a climb to the Tyndale Monument from the popular Cotswolds town of Wotton-under-Edge. It uses a section of the Cotswold Way National Trail to take you from the town to Westridge Woods and then on to the tower. The 19th century monument is an impressive landmark standing at a height of 111 ft (34 m). It was built in honour ofĀWilliam Tyndale, aĀtranslatorĀof theĀNew Testament who was born in the area. From the tower viewpoint there are wonderful views across the Cotswold Hills AONB and into south Wales. You can actually climb the spiral staircaseĀof 121 steps for even better views! A topographĀdisplays all the places you can see from the summit.
The site is next to the geologically significant Nibley Knoll which shows a thick section of Lower and MiddleĀJurassicĀrocks. After your climb you can descend into the village of North Nibley and enjoy refreshments there.Ā
To extend your walking in the area you could try the Wotton-under-Edge circular walk which takes you through the farmland and woodland surrounding the town. It also passes the Newark Park estate with 700 acres of parkland, gardens and lakes to explore.
If you follow the Cotswold Way north then you can visit Stinchcombe Hill where there is another great viewpoint. From here you can see back to the Tynedale Monument and across the Vale of the River Severn.

I wrote yesterday in a paper journal that it's hard to remain optimistic when your future is so uncertain. I also decided, after this weekend, that it's almost impossible when you are obsessing. I took time away from Craig's List and the other job search places I've used to take a break. I didn't job search for half a day Saturday, and I needed it more than I realized. I saw a movie and hung out with my significant other.
Yesterday, I called my undergraduate career development office; I chose them, seeing as how they're more local than my graduate one. The person unfortunately wasn't too helpful; while he did re-affirm what I'm doing is correct (custom cover letters, not being picky, good interview answers, etc.), his best solutions is keep up the work and wait it out. Essentially, "it's not you, it's the economy." In principle, that is a relief. In practice, when you have bills to pay and no one to support you, you want something better. I almost hoped that he would say, "Aleksie, you are certainly qualified and will get a job if you do x, y, and z." I wanted a viable solution that was guaranteed.
I have been getting interviews, but I honestly don't meet their exact criteria. I learn quickly, though, and I can learn almost anything I put my mind to; I taught my 4'10 self in one afternoon how to shoot a basketball from the foul line for 7th grade gym. I was tired of not getting it at all, so I took time to teach myself. I take pride in my work and can enjoy most tasks for a job. Even if I'm not the real life version of their ad, I think I definitely have qualities going for me.
Weathering the unemployment market seems to be the only solution. But man, it's hard out there.

Clinton is utterly predictable as far as Putin is concerned. Trump? Not so much. Is that a good thing or a bad thing, time will tell.
But I think the argument that Clinton is a known commodity in Putin's eyes holds a whole heck of a lot more water than Putin knows he can push Trump around.
I think Putin believes he can push Trump around. The worse thing, is that Putin attempts to and Trump has a fit...no one knows what type of fit. I am certain Clinton wouldn't start WWIII over it. Trump, no one knows.
As I have said before. It's like on a game show. Box#1 was Clinton, you know what you are getting. Box#2 is Trump and you have NO idea what is inside the box. Yet, so many go for box #2.
I would understand if box#1 was a boat and box #2 may be a new car or $100,000. But no one knows.

I need to clarify my acceptance into the University of Utah. I've been accepted to the U itself but I need to up my GPA to be accepted into the business school. That's why I need a better transfer GPA.
I love conference weekend, I get a break from primary and I get to listen to the apostles in my pajamas. Life just doesn't get much better than that. The only thing that made it less than perfect was that Nate is still sick.
I've noticed nothing can make a big strong man turn into a two year old quicker than a cold. Poor Nate has been sick for over a week and it's wearing us both down. I just hope I don't get sick too, he doesn't have the patience that I have :).

Bison License Plates
Show your Okie pride and support conservation
To check the status of your bison license plate, please contact the OK Tax Commission at 405-521-2468.
To order one, download and complete this pdf form on the Oklahoma Tax Commission's (OTC) web site.
- Please allow 8-12 weeks for production and delivery. You will receive your plate via mail from the OTC.
- The initial registration fee is $38 and annual renewal fee is $36.50. A portion of the initial registration fee and annual renewal fee ($20) will benefit The Nature Conservancy's conservation efforts in Oklahoma.
Join the growing number of Oklahomans who are supporting conservation by showing their Okie pride with a bison license plate!
"We are thrilled to announce that the bison license plates are officially in production," said Mike Fuhr, State Director for The Nature Conservancy of Oklahoma. "It took longer than we anticipated to get the plates into production and we are grateful to our fellow Oklahomans who pre-ordered for their support and patience. This may be the only time we say this, but we are eager to soon see bison roaming the streets of Oklahoma!"
The Nature Conservancy began accepting pre-orders for a bison-themed special interest plate on November 1, 2016. Within less than two months, the Conservancy collected the required 500 pre-orders. The goal was reached on December 29, 2016 and pre-orders were accepted until February 1 with a total of more than 1,200 collected.
Nearly 15,000 Oklahomans voted for their favorite of eight bison-themed license plate designs in an online contest in September. With 3,405 votes, the "Pioneers of the Prairie" design by Chris Miller at Cubic Creative in Tulsa was the winning design selected by the public for a new Oklahoma specialty license plate benefiting The Nature Conservancy of Oklahoma.
Two hooves up for the Oklahoma Conservation Commission who volunteered to be our state agency host and help funnel the proceeds from plate sales to our cause. It takes a village and we are furever grateful!
P.S. You may notice a slight change in the plate design. The background is now a solid gradient versus solid lines. This change was made to resolve some contrast issues with the output of the plate printer. It's a different ballgame than printing on paper. We hope this does not upset you and are even more hopeful you don't even notice. It's all about the bison right?!
Where can I order a bison license plate?
The bison license plate is now available to order at tag agencies statewide or via the OTC web site. Click here to download the OTC form. Please allow up to 8 weeks for production. You will receive your plate in the mail from the OTC.
Is the $38 fee a one-time or annual fee?
Just like all plates, you have to renew them annually. The initial fee for the bison license plate is $38 and the annual renewal fee is $36.50. A portion of the fee ($20) will benefit The Nature Conservancy's conservation efforts in Oklahoma. No matter how long you sport the plate, your support is greatly appreciated!
Will I still have to get the new state license plate with the scissortail bird on it and pay the $5 fee?
This is quite the hot topic. The answer is… yes. Whether or not you have a special interest plate such as the bison license plate, you will get the new state license plate with the scissortail bird. And yes, you will still have to pay the state-mandated new plate fee of $5. Wish we could be of help here, but that situation is out of our control.
Will The Nature Conservancy continue to benefit from my annual renewal fees?
Absolutely! Each time you renew, you can sigh a breath of relief knowing you are supporting the conservation of Oklahoma's majestic prairies, scenic rivers and native wildlife. A portion of each renewal fee ($20) will benefit The Nature Conservancy. Let us go ahead and thank you for your continued support. We hope the bison license plate brings a smile to your face day after day, year after year.
The OTC form says a portion of the fees will be deposited to the Oklahoma Conservation Commission (OCC). Isn't The Nature Conservancy benefiting from these plates?
Great question! Yes, The Nature Conservancy is benefiting from the proceeds of the plates ($20/each). However, the state requires the funds be funneled through a state agency before reaching us. Our kind friends at the OCC volunteered to help us out. Thank you OCC!
Is the contribution tax-deductible?
You may be able to deduct this from your personal income taxes. You can consult with your tax adviser or review the IRS regulations that apply to your situation to determine whether or not a deduction is allowed.
How will The Nature Conservancy use the funding generated from the sales of this plate?
This is by far our favorite question! Thank you for asking. The funds will directly benefit the conservation of Oklahoma's magnificent landscapes and unique biodiversity. We will receive the funds generated from the bison license plates sales annually around December/January. At that time, we will select one of our conservation projects here in Oklahoma to receive the funds. How will you know what those projects are year to year? You guessed it, hop online and visit nature.org/okbison. Or better yet, let's get social – follow us at: facebook.com/nature.ok or twitter.com/nature_ok.
Who designed this stellar plate?
Hats off to the talented Chris Miller at Cubic Creative for creating this winning design. We want to extend a special thank you to the four design firms that helped make this project possible. Thank you Cubic Creative, Staplegun, The Lowe Group and Clover Partners for donating your time and energy to produce the original designs in the contest.
Why did the plate background change from the original design?
You may notice a slight change in the plate design. The background is now a solid gradient versus solid lines. This change was made to resolve some contrast issues with the output of the plate printer. It's a different ballgame than printing on paper. We hope this does not upset you and are even more hopeful you don't even notice. It's all about the bison right?!
But wait… don't go. How do I stay in touch with The Nature Conservancy?
You're stealing our hearts. We thought you'd never ask. We mail communications such as our annual report, field trip invitations and spring newsletter to our members. Become a member and you'll also get quarterly magazines informing you of our work worldwide. You can join by donating online or calling us at 918-585-1117. Another option is to sign up for our monthly e-newsletters in the form above. We'll keep your inbox good company and deliver you updates about our work to conserve Oklahoma's last great places! Or if you happen to be socially inclined, become our virtual friend at facebook.com/nature.ok or twitter.com/nature_ok.
Because bison play a crucial role in maintaining grasslands, The Nature Conservancy manages 13 herds throughout North America including a herd of 2,500 at the Tallgrass Prairie Preserve near Pawhuska.
Great herds of bison once roamed the prairies of our nation, including Oklahoma. And during this time of celebrating bison as our newly-designated national mammal, we felt this would be a great opportunity to generate awareness about the important role bison play in maintaining Oklahoma's native prairies.
The Conservancy is working towards reintroducing a bison herd to the Arbuckle Plains at Oka' Yanahli Preserve! Learn more about this big bison news!

Honduras is the perfect place for the avid sun-seeker. For those in quest of warm beautiful beaches with relatively easy access, the beaches near the northwestern coastal city of Puerto Cortéz in the Caribbean shore are the closest to the international airport at San Pedro Sula. Just west of there is the small town of Omoa, where without ever losing sight of the beach and the sea, visitors can enjoy a tour of a Spanish Colonial Fortress built centuries ago.
For those interested in long beautiful beaches, diving, nightlife and an international party atmosphere, the Beaches on the Island of Roatan may best suit your needs. Roatan is a popular enough destination, that it has an international airport serviced by not only the Honduran carriers, but also operators of daily flights from San Pedro Sula to Roatan, and weekly flight from Houston Texas to Roatan. Utila and Guanaja also have some nicer beaches.
For the traveler wishing to seek out the lesser-known beaches, off the beaten path, the small town of Ampala on the Isla el Tigre in the Golfo de Fonseca on the Pacific coast may be worth considering. This island is accessible via a ten-minute boat ride from the small fishing village of Coyolito on the mainland. Despite the modest accommodations, from the top of the extinct volcano on the island, one can see not only the Honduran mainland, but also El Salvador, and Nicaragua.

I'm sure many people have found respectable uses for Google Video. I am not one of those people. I receive links from friends, colleagues and readers on a daily basis, and so far, every link to Google Video has been some hilarious home video of someone singing along to a favorite song, yet another version of someone doing the Numa Numa Dance or an amazing display of yo-yo skills. All of these videos are welcome distractions from the workday, if not entirely useful to my profession.
But today I proudly join the ranks of people who have found work-related content on the video search site--sort of. Here is a video apparently put out by the Software Publishers Association in 1992, intended to introduce young people to the ugly side of software piracy. And, like so many public service announcements before it and since, the people behind this gem chose to communicate their message in a manner that would surely reach the younger generation. They did it with a fantastically cheesy 80s-style rap that manages to be as comical as any Web video I've seen before.
But the entertainment factor aside, the video shows that the folks trying to curb copyright piracy haven't changed their arguments much over the years. In the video, a handful of programmers, game designers and lawyers talk about how kids making illegal copies of "Oregon Trail" affects the software industry and them personally. The basic argument is that software companies robbed of their income won't be able to pay their employees and will decide not to make anymore products, hence no more video games for the kiddies to play. It was only a few months ago at the movie theater that I saw a similar PSA, featuring a stunt man and a movie technician who solemnly told the audience that if we helped spread around pirated copies of blockbuster hits, they would soon be out of work.
Maybe what they say is true, and maybe it's not. I just wish they'd bring back the cheesy rap songs when they lecture me.

Annie Sloan White Chalk Paint® Wax
Apply a thin coat of White Wax with a lint-free cloth or Annie Sloan Wax Brush onto your painted surface. Work in small areas at a time, 'pushing' the wax into the paint. Remove any excess with a clean cloth. Less is more, so there's no need to apply wax too thickly. The wax will feel touch-dry immediately after you've applied it. If you've over applied the White Wax, you can wipe it back with a little Clear Wax. Make sure that every part of your piece has been waxed at least once. For a limed oak look, White Wax can be applied directly onto wood.

Annie (2014)
On 18-21 June 2014, the NBCS production of Annie was staged in the Marina Prior Centre – the fifth musical under the direction of Ryan Desaulnier, and following on from the exceptional production of Camelot in 2013. The cast of over 60 students brought the touching story and famous music to life with immense talent, and great enthusiasm. As a community, we would like to acknowledge the dedication and artistry of the entire Ensemble and Production Team – thank you for making the show an outstanding success.
Annie tells the story of a young orphan girl (played by Annabel Mance), living in New York City during the 1930s, in an orphanage run by the cruel and embittered Miss Hannigan (Nikki Bates). Annie's infectiously bright personality helps her foil whatever scheming she comes up against, until one day she finds a new family in billionaire Oliver Warbucks (Alec Green), his secretary Grace Farrell (Emily Van Ameyde), and a lovable dog named Sandy (Brandie) that Annie rescues from the city streets.
Annabel, Nikki, Alec and Emily, along with Simon Buchner, Sienna Kydd, Matthew Welinski, Josh Nila, Hamish Green, William Clarke, Lucas Van Rhijn, Maddi Calvert, Taylor Sheahan, Sarah Handy, Robert Varley, Martin Bennett, Lachlan Ford, Ally Rowe, Tom Rowe, Matthew Hinton, Jasmine Scales, Tallulah Suthern, Taylor Jankowski, Emily Barker, Mikaela Thornton, Callum Audet, Chloe Worthington, Tori Fraser, Rosie Prince and Niamh McCool – supported by an excellent Ensemble – all did a sensational job, and delivered Broadway favourites with flair and pizzaz.
Special mention should be made of the cast of Orphans – led by Sahara Nalbandian-Watkis, Claire Hutchison, Sophie Waller, Ella Thornton, Annie Walker and Abbi Crossley – whose performance was a particular highlight. We are especially grateful to our youngest performers for their commitment and dedication to the show.
We would also like to offer our heart-felt appreciation for the work and extended hours invested by the Creative Team in crafting such a professional show: Director and Choreographer Ryan Desaulnier, Assistant Director Belinda Tolmie, Music Director Phil Rees, Producer Tamara Buttrose, Costume Designer Ros Moore, Assistant Costume Designer Jenni Thomas, Dance Captain Kaitlin Pert, and a special mention to illustrator of the 'Annie' cartoon and exceptional backdrops, Leigh Hedström.
Finally, thank you to all those who attended and supported the show, and to the parents of students who waited patiently on so many occasions – we are confident you will agree that the production was well worth the weekly rehearsals and time invested – thank you for your support.
We have put together a gallery showcasing the production, with photos by parent and professional photographer Annette Scholtz, and in-house NBCS photographer Michael Harris. We hope you enjoy re-living the beauty and drama of the production.

"My mother wasn't receiving the care she deserved (at one of the major hospitals in Los Angeles) and when I made an inquiry the staff was rude to me and didn't take my request seriously. Dr. De Gruy filed a grievance on our behalf that prompted a meeting with us by the Chief of Staff, the Hospital Administrator, the Director of Nursing and the Nursing Supervisor. The meeting produced changes in policy. Her intervention and assistance were priceless." Denise, Los Angeles, CA.
"When you're disabled you sometimes become invisible in the hospital setting. There is no continuity of care or response to your needs. Dr. De Gruy recognized that my rights were being ignored and took action. By her actions and interaction with administration a potentially negative patient experience was avoided. Thank you Dr. De Gruy. Ola Carter, Fountain Valley, CA.
"My 9 month old son was discharged from ER and within 5 minutes began turning blue, was vomiting and lethargic. We immediately had to rush him to another hospital because we didn't trust the first hospital's credibility. Dr. De Gruy filed a grievance with the hospital and a satisfactory resolution was obtained including the counseling of one of the employees and a letter of apology from the hospital. This proves patient advocacy works." T.F. of Long Beach, CA.
"I have known Dr. Sheila De Gruy for many years now and have the utmost respect and admiration for her as person but also in what she does for her clients. There are not a lot of people who truly care anymore, and she is one of those individuals. She has compassion, but most importantly, she gets the job done. I personally would highly recommend her." Renee C., Los Angeles

A harsh glare
EDITOR: Thanks for your coverage of how the city is trying to deal with homeless people at the Sixth Street underpass. But I question its focus on squalor, smells, garbage and human waste, not to mention a photo of a scampering rat. I have to ask — to what end is this emphasis? We all know, or can imagine, the conditions of a homeless camp.
My fear is that this graphic, charged language further robs our homeless citizens of dignity while serving the ends of those who would treat them harshly and punitively, rather than those of us who know them as a population of fellow human beings in dire need.
Santa Rosa
Inadequate response
EDITOR: Our neighbors, Jose Teniel and Maria Ramos, spent the past week trying to catch a flight to Puerto Rico. Jose's mother was trapped in a hospital without running water or electricity. His uncle wasn't able to get his dialysis and is in septic shock.
They sat at Miami International every day, only to see all of the flights to San Juan canceled. They hope to get there next week.
I'm dumbfounded by the inadequate response by our government. I served for 20 years in the Air Force, with 12 years with the 129th Air Rescue Group, so I know firsthand about our military's ability to respond to humanitarian crises and have always taken pride in it. Stars and Stripes, our military newspaper, published an article comparing our response in Puerto Rico to the immediate aid given to Haiti following the 2010 earthquake. The response to Harvey in Texas and Irma in Florida was just as massive, utilizing all appropriate civilian and military agencies.
Apparently, under this administration, receiving disaster aid requires passing a political litmus test. Florida and Texas voted for Donald Trump. Puerto Rico, with 3.4 million American citizens isn't allowed an Electoral College vote, disenfranchising all of its citizens.
God help us if a major earthquake strikes California during the Trump administration because it's unlikely that the federal government will help.
Santa Rosa
Health care costs
EDITOR: Market forces have failed to keep health care costs affordable for most Americans. The lack of price transparency, gag orders written into insurance contracts, the fee-for-service payment system and the use of third parties to pay most bills keep costs climbing ever higher. Health care spending is something that impacts all of us. This is why we all need to keep this issue front and center until meaningful reform is achieved.
We have seen how public sector pensions have squeezed out spending on needed services, but so has health care spending, to a more insidious degree. Every dollar spent on health care is one less dollar spent on education, affordable housing, infrastructure, the environment and wage increases.
We can all play a part by being more prudent. Whenever you visit a health care provider and a test, procedure or prescription is ordered for you, ask a few simple questions: "Is this absolutely necessary?" If so, ask: "Is there a less expensive alternative that would not diminish the quality of my care?"
Just because someone else may be paying the bills on your behalf, it doesn't mean that you won't be paying the price in the end.

April 17, 2017Pilot Program to Support Adult Learners Begins in Pulaski
PULASKI - Ahead Together Pulaski is the name of a pilot program being rolled out this month in Richland to help area residents who are seeking to further their education and improve their employment prospects. Participants will be encouraged to develop and implement a personal plan for success and will have the opportunity to join a support group consisting of other adult learners.
The program was developed by Oswego County Legislator Roy Reehil as part of the Oswego County Anti-Poverty Task Force that he chairs. The program will be led by AmeriCorps member Martha Marshall, an experienced facilitator and mediator who is a resident of Pulaski.
AmeriCorps Program Coordinator in Oswego County Kathy Andolina said she "is pleased to see such an innovative use of the AmeriCorps program and the collaboration of the many agencies who have joined together to start this pilot."
Legislator Reehil, who represents District 5, Constantia, thanked several of the agencies involved in developing the program.
"Without the blessing of Commissioner of Social Services Stacy Alvord, support from Oswego County AmeriCorps, and the help of the Pulaski Community Services Task Force, we would not have gotten the pilot off the ground," said Legislator Reehil.
"The program will help motivated adult learners to access the tremendous range of adult educational opportunities here in Oswego County, and can also help adult students access any financial aid that may be available to them," added program facilitator Marshall.
Anyone interested joining or learning more about Ahead Together Pulaski should contact Martha Marshall at (315) 395-1661. Anyone interested in helping start an Ahead Together chapter in other regions of Oswego County should contact Oswego County Anti-Poverty Chairman Roy Reehil at (315) 675-9704.

We know all too well how difficult it can be to stay on top of all of marketing your brand while on the go and focusing on countless other projects. That's why we're bringing it back to basics.
- Block out brainstorming time: Catching the train to work one day? This is your brainstorming time. Have your notepad at the ready (and a coffee or three) and gain inspiration from what you see. It may be a billboard you pass, or the colour of somebody's jacket, whatever it may be, use it!
- Goal setting: It is important to set goals or objectives for yourself whilst marketing your brand, this way you are more likely to work more effectively. SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time-based) goals will help you understand the nitty- gritty's of your goals and help you achieve them.
- Focus: We all want to update each medium as soon as we have our idea, however you are likely to be more effective if you just focus on one at a time. Say you are marketing your business on social media, pick one to begin with, gain a following, and then allow it to grow. If your audience likes what they see on one platform, they will follow you across to another.
- Making it a habit: Chances are, you've got a team so assist you with this, so make sure you're all on the same page and are able to encourage one another. If not, keep focused and you'll reap the results later.

Want to shoot Field Target in Hunter class. If I remember right you can use a bipod and a stool/chair. I was wanting to know if there is a requirement or limit on chair height or if it has a back and can be used.
Thanks for any help
back support. No chair height limitation.
From the AAFTA handbook...
Any form of seat without back or arms support may be used, but
the seat may NOT be used to support the rifle while shooting.

Today I read about Hilbert's paradox of the Grand Hotel (shame, only today) and I was struck by the illogical human thinking.
That's right!
Paradoxes are nothing but illogical thinking.
Hilbert's paradox goes like that:
Consider a hypothetical hotel with a countably infinite number of rooms, all of which are occupied. One might be tempted to think that the hotel would not be able to accommodate any newly arriving guests, as would be the case with a finite number of rooms.[Read the rest in Wikipedia]
When for some stupid reason we create infinity, we create it from objects with same properties. Right?
We can have an infinite number of apples, or an infinite number of shoes, or an infinite number of shoe pairs.
What do we have in Hilbert's case?
We have an infinite number of hotel rooms, all of which are occupied by guests.
What we actually have is an infinite number of room/guest pairs.
No, the right way to say it is that we have an infinite number of occupied rooms.
(If the mathematicians knew the importance of word choice, they would know how difficult it would be to create a paradox.)
Now we have to accommodate one guest in that hotel.
It appears that if we� choose to think of the occupied room as of room + guest, we can move the guests with one room up and vacate room №1 for the new guest.
"Hold on! – one would say. – All the rooms are occupied! How do you move the guests with one room up."
Well, apparently that choice have a good explanation; since the rooms are infinite, there is no last room which will block the guests' movement with one room up. So it is possible according to that way of thinking, although it contradicts the idea that all rooms are occupied.
Mentioning "all", don't you think that this word is inappropriate when it comes to infinity, because "all" implies a number, but infinity is not a real number.
"Not a real number" is the first step for creating a paradox.
How many unicorns can we accommodate in fully occupied unreal number?
The answer could be any real and unreal number and it would be the right answer because you can adjust the unreal parameters in any convenient for you way.
But isn't there any way to make sense of this and put it in a logical explanation?
Can we refute the illogical statement that infinite occupied rooms can accommodate one and even infinite number of guests?
Sure, there is nothing easier than refuting a paradox.
The logic for a limited set of numbers tells us that we cannot create a pair in a row of room/guest pairs by adding only a guest in that row.
Simply said, we cannot accommodate a guest when all the rooms are occupied.
As Hilbert tells us that's not the case with the infinite number of occupied rooms.
Then let's change Hilbert's choice of words!
Here is how our change would look:
- empty room = bucket of water
- guest = 1 kg of cement
- occupied room = concrete
Let's accommodate the cement in the bucket of water in the same way we accommodate the guests in the empty rooms.
Now we have an infinite number of concrete buckets.
What happened here?
We paired a with b and the result is c
To make it even easier, you can use an infinite number of 10L buckets filled with 10L water, and try to add 10L water in the infinite bucket-water pairs.
It doesn't work that way, you say?
Oh, I see, you prefer unicorns.
So, where the paradox comes from?
It comes from the concrete, of course.
Hilbert wasn't clever enough to see the real property of "occupied room".
He saw it as 1+1, not as 1
Now you'd tell me that the logic says that you can do pairing and mapping and blah-blah, and all the blah seems to be logical, but if there is a paradox, one or all of your blahs are nonsense.
To avoid paradoxes, we should create common sense rules like:
- do not assign wrong properties
- do not misplace properties
- do not misuse properties
- do not try to think but think

Moscow, Russia (PRWEB) February 27, 2017
Fiord is a well-known ISP company in Moscow region, and provides wideband Internet connection to city businesses and residential areas. During the recent upgrade of network infrastructure, Fiord decided to install a 10 Gbps outdoor millimeter wave radio link for the connection of a newly serviced residential area. The fiber optics alternative was also considered, but postponed, as it required much more time for installation. In busy cities like Moscow, fiber optics is usually installed in ducts underground, but digging in the frozen ground is hard to do and expensive during the winter.
The PPC-10G broadband link provides full-duplex data rates of up to 10 Gbps in a single, zero-footprint, all-outdoor solution. Among ISP application like in the case of Fiord company, the link is intended for Security/Safe City applications, 4G/LTE Backhaul, Corporate Campus Networks, IPTV.
10 Gigabit millimeter wave (MMW) technology is the best choice for wireless connectivity on distances over 1 mile where free-space optics becomes unreliable, especially in situation if fiber optics is not unavailable or too expensive. More over, an additional benefit of PPC-10G is the fact that radio units are installed on sites owned by the customer, therefore bringing the connectivity under full control and management of the user and not dependable on fiber optics operator.
An additional advantage of millimeter wave technology is that up to four PPC-10G parallel links may be installed at the same point-to-point locations, and aggregated into one 40 Gbps channel with no mutual interference. PPC-10G utilizes Ethernet protocol, which is the evolving standard for switches and routers available from a variety of telecommunication equipment manufacturers.
"Right now, the PPC-10G link has been installed on 10.2 km distance. Probably, this case is the longest E-band 10 Gigabit wireless link installation in the world," said Ilya Popov, Fiord's CIO. "Snow and minus-degree weather is not a problem at all for this millimeter wave radio. We have remote control and monitoring to link's transceiver components, and see that temperature inside the radio cases is within the allowed limits. We also enjoy that link manufacturing facility is in St.Petersburg that is within 1 hour flight, and we could rely on fast service support."
About Fiord
Fiord was founded in 2002, and now has 15 years of successful experience of ISP business in Moscow region. Fiord's main advantages on the market is a high availability of services, excellent internet connectivity and routing. Fiord has partnership with major global Tier1 telecom operators, such as Level3, Telia, Tata, NTT, Seabone Telecom Italia, Tinet, Cogent. The company has presence in the main European traffic exchange points with support nodes located in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, Frankfurt, Amsterdam and Stockholm.

Genre Avoidance, Squadron Supreme & Watchmen 2012
Three topics this week, all prompted by reader questions. Good ones, all.
Question One: Are there any genres, or any subject matter, that you will consume in comic form but not bother with in other media?
The most likely candidate is the superhero genre. There's a reason why that genre is so closely bound up with the history of comic books — superheroes wear iconic, easy-to-recognize costumes, which is great when you are telling stories about them, drawn with little two-or-three inch panels. They don't translate as well to novels or to movies because novels are so internal, and so point-of-view dependent, and superheroes, even when they might have interior concerns, are about external conflicts. Simplistic, external conflicts, and that's okay, but not for novels. And in movies, if you're talking live-action, then you end up watching superheroes move around in real life, and they can't help but look and sound silly.
Christian Bale's Batman: super-silly sounding, and, if you think about it for two seconds, he looks ridiculous too. You can fool yourself into playing along with the tone of the movie, but Batman will always stick out like a sore Bat-thumb when he's placed in any kind of cinematic reality.
Every superhero movie has this problem. Take "X-Men: First Class," which does a nice job creating an alternate superhero reality of the 1960s, but once Magneto puts on that superhero helmet, it turns from romanticized cartoonish reality into wow-that-is-absurd-and-terrible-looking territory.
I continue to check out most of the big-time superhero movies, but not all of them. And superhero novels? Not so much. Unless they are written by Eliot S. Maggin, they are likely abominations. They just don't work as well as the comic book versions of superheroes.
To flip it around a bit, I am much more likely to watch a fantasy film or read a fantasy novel than I am to read a fantasy comic book. While I overwhelmingly avoid the endless Tolkein regurgitations that clog the "Fantasy" section of the local book shop, I will read a China Mieville novel, or an M. John Harrison novel, or take a peek at "The Neverending Story" or one of the classic John Carter of Mars books. And I will still watch even bad movies about dragons and guys with swords and fireballs. But, with comics, I tend to avoid that stuff. I'll sample it from time to time, and I will dive into the weirder bits, but even well-written, well-drawn Dungeons & Dragons or Conan comics bore me after a couple of issues. And whatever it is that charms me about fantasy novels or films seems to be absent from almost all fantasy comics I've ever read.
I really want to like Paul Cornell's "Demon Knights," but I just don't enjoy it much at all. I like it in theory, a lot.
Question Two: What artist or writer gets overlooked as a major influence on modern creators?
In this age of nostalgia overload, with every comic available on demand, either in collected editions, or via illegal downloads, or somewhere in between, and plenty of blogs and message boards devoted to even the most obscure comic book creators of the past, it's unrealistic to say that anyone is truly overlooked, but if there's one name that's mentioned but not mentioned enough in these kinds of conversations, it would have to be Mark Gruenwald.
Gruenwald almost never cracks the Top 10 of anyone's Best Comic Book Writers of All Time list. He falls behind the greats, like Alan Moore and Grant Morrison, Stan Lee and Gardner Fox, and even the wild cards like Steve Gerber or Arnold Drake, or the newer crop like Ed Brubaker or Jason Aaron. But I suspect that most of the guys and gals in that newer crop are heavily influenced by Gruenwald even if they don't reflect on that influence very often.
Even if you ignore his enormous run on Captain America — a run that clearly had an impact on young Rick Remender who brought back many of the Scourge-killed villains for a memorable "Punisher" arc — you're left with a million other small contributions to the history of superhero comics and two major ones: (1) "The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe," and (2) "Squadron Supreme."
Most of the current writers in mainstream comics are around my age, plus or minus about five years, and I can say with authority that while the mid-1980s may have been pivotal for all of us because of comics like "Watchmen" and "The Dark Knight Returns," the secret mojo really belongs to the two Gruenwald projects mentioned above. Listen, DC put out "Who's Who in the DC Universe" shortly after Marvel's in-house encyclopedia was released (and it may have been in the works anyway, thanks to their anniversary and "Crisis on Infinite Earths" research project), and I love "Who's Who," but "The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe" was the standard-setter. For readers at the time, it was the Marvel Universe. It captured the history of the characters and told stories of who they were and how they came to be. And it catalogued all of them, and gave details on their powers and who was stronger than who and which guys were affiliated with which other guys. Reading that Handbook — in its serialized form — was like falling down a Wikipedia rabbit hole a month at a time, and enjoying every minute of it. Current writers who have a chance to write for Marvel can't help but be influenced by their reading of that book when they were younger. It established an entire reality for a superhero universe.
"Squadron Supreme" is a different matter. It was "Watchmen" before "Watchmen" was "Watchmen," and while it has none of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbon's amazing formalistic flourishes, it does provide a vicious twist on so many superhero conventions. Sure, the second half of the series doesn't live up to its first half — and even though it has an ending that's bleaker than most Marvel books of the time, it's still a good guys vs. bad guys battle, ultimately — but by playing with the Justice League archetypes and showing how much they can screw up the world they're trying to help, it painted the way for so many of the Modern Age comics that followed.
It's certainly a precursor to "Stormwatch" and "The Authority," and while the dialogue is a bit hokey from our perspective today, and while the storytelling is entrenched in the Bronze Age, it is definitely a prologue for the era of superheroes that soon followed.
It's still a comic worth reading, and if it didn't influence many of today's creators when they were children or adolescents, I would be shocked. Because the DNA of that series can be found in almost everything that comes out from Marvel and DC today, with its optimistic sense of despair, its crushing disappointments, its ideological rifts between teammates, and the encroaching reality of illness and death. The style of the narrative may be a bit creaky, but what's underneath is very similar to the superhero comics of today. In its day, it was a risky, rare kind of story. Today, it would be commonplace. But that's the Gruenwald influence at work.
Question Three: How do you feel about the prospect of "Watchmen" spin-offs in general and about Darwyn Cooke's upcoming effort in particular?
If you recall what you've been doing for the past three or four years, you may remember that my second-ever "When Words Collide" column was dedicated to "Watchmen," and, specifically, it's role-playing game spin-offs. And I mentioned that Alan Moore was involved with some of that work, providing his notes and working with Ray Winninger on some of the supplemental material for the game modules and handbooks. There was a time — and this can easily be verified by a reread of all the 1980s issues of "The Comics Journal," easily available in digital form and worth every second of your time — when Alan Moore himself talked about telling more stories in the Watchmen universe. He would have written a Minutemen miniseries, had he not scuffled with DC and ended his tenure there. "Watchmen" was not, at the time, or even for a few years after, regarded as a monolithic masterpiece. It was just a comic. A really good one.
I'm not opposed to "Watchmen" spin-offs or sequels or prequels. I would certainly check them out, because I would be curious to see how they were handled, just as I'd be curious to see how a "Captain Ahab: The Early Voyages" story might be told. Would I expect that hypothetical Captain Ahab novel or film to be any good? Not really. Would I expect it to add to or subtract from the "Moby-Dick" legacy or tarnish that novel in any way? Nope.
I feel the same about future "Watchmen" comics.
But what about Darwyn Cooke, then? Does his potential involvement (has it even been confirmed at this point?) make me more excited? Not really.
I think Cooke is one of the best artists in comics. I love his stuff, from "Selina's Big Score" to "The New Frontier" to the last Parker adaptation. But I suspect he's not drawing any of these "Watchmen" spin-offs. And even if he is, they would be Darwyn Cooke comics first — because his style is so distinctive — and "Watchmen" comics second. If he were to draw a Comedian miniseries, it might as well be an original character having an adventure in the 1940s, or the 1960s, or whatever. There will be little to connect it aesthetically to "Watchmen," other than some proper nouns and maybe a costume.
But if Cooke is writing the project, or somehow coordinating it editorially (like the Alex Ross/Kurt Busiek approach for Dynamite), then I have practically no expectations at all. I haven't read enough of Cooke's writer-only work to make much of an educated prediction about its potential quality, but I know I haven't liked any of the short stories he's written for others, mostly because I couldn't help think it needed his art to work properly.
Cooke's an interesting choice for Watchmen-related comics because he's an unconventional choice — nothing about his approach to comics screams "this is like what Alan Moore would do," and I suppose that's the point. He's as far away from Alan Moore as you can get and still be heralded as a top-notch comic book creator. All the other usual suspects have their Moore-ish facets to contend with. Geoff Johns is too much of a showman and entertainer to pull off something in Moore's world, though he does have an underlying darkness that he's brought to the fore in his "Green Lantern" comics in recent years. Scott Snyder is one of the few current writers trying to pull off a literary approach to narrative captions, and he's riffing on Moore in his "Swamp Thing" run right now. Paul Cornell is like Moore combined with Geoff Johns aleady. Grant Morrison has been living in (and raging against) Moore's shadow throughout his whole career, and he's already doing his take on "Watchmen" as part of the "Multiversity" project, which is far more enticing than any actual "Watchmen" spin-off, anyway, because it has an intrinsic freedom that a true spin-off wouldn't have.
Who else from DC's stable would be a good choice for "Watchmen" comics? Judd Winick? J. T. Krul? Gail Simone? Dan Jurgens? I think…no.
I guess "interesting" is all it comes down to. DC has my interest with any "Watchmen" tie-in book. It's a corporate property that hasn't been touched in decades. I'm curious to see what they do with it.
But I don't expect it to be anything special. I expect it will be soon forgotten. But "Watchmen" won't. That's the one that matters.
People don't really read that "Ahab's Wife" book anymore, do they? Or that "Scarlett" book that was controversial once upon a time? No. No they don't. But "Moby-Dick" will never die and "Gone with the Wind" will appear on Turner Classic Movies at least once a month. "Watchmen," meanwhile, will abide.
In addition to writing reviews and columns for COMIC BOOK RESOURCES, Timothy Callahan is the author of "Grant Morrison: The Early Years" and editor of "Teenagers from the Future: Essays on the Legion of Super-Heroes" anthology.

Over the last few months I have been building up my cycling miles on our tandem as my hubby kindly entered me into the annual Liverpool - Chester - Liverpool bike ride which consists of 50 miles. I was really worried as I did not meet the 50 mile mark, I think the furthest I cycled was 32.
On Sunday I joined 3,000+ cyclists and left the Birkenhead Tunnel at about quarter past 8 and after a comfort break at a rugby club, we arrived at the Countess of Chester at 11 (25 miles). After a sausage in a bun and an amazing tasting energy gel (rhubarb and custard), we carried on with the return journey, and arrived back at Liverpool at 1.30. I am really chuffed that I was actually able to cycle the 50 miles as I didn't have much faith in myself, but actually cycling to the start from were we parked the car and return journey I actually cycled 57.1 miles. The amount of times tho' that cyclists shouted "She's not pedalling"!!!! I would have had quite a bit of money by the end lol!

07 February 2009
The former Inspector of the Policia Judiciária in Portimão confirmed he will proceed with a lawsuit against Marcos Aragão Correia and suggested that the attorney suffers from psychological problems. He also reaffirmed that he is not an arguido for torture against Leandro Silva
Gonçalo Amaral suggested yesterday, in statements to 24horas, that Marcos Aragão Correia, lawyer for Leonor Cipriano, suffers from a psychiatric illness. This is another episode of verbal war between the ex-inspector of police in Portimão and the lawyer.
"Friends of mine who are connected to medicine, with whom I have spoken, tell me that Aragão Correia is in need of being compulsorily admitted. I think that says it all," said Gonçalo Amaral. "For me, it is not as a person, but only as a lawyer," said the former inspector.
That the lawyer has said that the former inspector has been constituted an arguido by the Public Ministry, due to the practice of alleged crimes of torture against Leandro Silva, husband of Leonor Cipriano, Gonçalo Amaral was peremptory: "No comment because everything is false. I will move with a case (against Aragão Correia). When? Inside the legally established period, that is, I have six months to do so."
The quest to be the leading character
The former inspector of the PJ is to be judged in a case where Leonor Cipriano, mother of Joana, guarantees to have been tortured on the premises of the PJ in order to admit the death of her daughter and the place where the corpse was hidden. In this case, Amaral is charged with failing to denounce. However, Marcos Aragão Correia wants to prove the veracity of the thesis of torture.
"Mr Aragão Correia has a goal, and that is the demand to be the leading character in the limelight. But he also knows that he follows the Order of Lawyers [Bar Association]. I will deal with the case by that establishment, I will deal with the case in court and, I stress, if necessary with a compulsory internment, and that, it seems, is what that man requires," concluded Gonçalo Amaral.
24horas tried to talk to Aragão Correia, but he has remained uncontactable.

Old Themes
The past three themes I have chosen for this blog have been listed as "no longer supported" by WordPress.com. While this is discouraging, I understand why some authors make the choice to no longer support older themes. I imagine the time it takes to update CSS scripts to be compatible with the newer versions of WordPress as they are released does take time. I find this would be especially true of the free themes listed, as these would generate no revenue and still require the same upkeep as a theme that would. Keep reading

Massachusetts Authors Win Judgment In Breach-of-Contract Publishing Case
A Massachusetts state court has ordered a defunct publishing firm to pay $32.4 million in damages to the authors of a controversial Holocaust memoir for failing to live up to its marketing promises.
The award, handed down by Middlesex Superior Court in Cambridge, Mass., is believed to be one of the largest of its kind in a breach-of-contract case involving a writer. It includes more than $22 million in treble damages.
