Rolling Stones fans waiting to hear about a new tour eagerly follow every rumor that may yield a clue regarding the group's next move. But if waiting for a Google alert for "Stones tour" to yield some news becomes tiresome, fans can do far worse than re-watching the Stones' 2008 concert film Shine A Light, directed by Martin Scorsese.
As chronicled in the documentary, one of the greatest moments from the show was when blues legend Buddy Guy joined the band for "Champagne and Reefer." After the song, Keith Richards took off his guitar – one of his favorites – and gave it to Guy, a guitarist whose influence Richards has noted numerous times through the years. Richards even referred to the moment in a blurb he wrote for the back cover of Guy's memoirs, When I Left Home: My Story. Guy didn't actually write about the concert in the book, but told CBS Local that he'd had his eye on Keith's axe for a while. Watch below.
Buddy Guy's When I Left Home: My Story is in stores now. Guy is touring the U.S. tour through the fall, alongside opening act Jonny Lang.

Bouchard wants Bieber in Royal Box
Wimbledon finalist Eugenie Bouchard has made a light-hearted plea for shamed pop star Justin Bieber to be invited to the Royal Box.
She has previously named her fellow Canadian as her dream date, and now wants him to cheer her on from the exclusive enclosure in Centre Court.
When it was suggested that he might not be allowed in given his recent misdemeanours, she said: ''They really wouldn't allow him in the Royal Box if he came?
''I feel like he would manage to get himself in there somehow.''
Eugenie, 20, joked that she hoped he had noticed her success.
''I'm putting in so much hard work, you know. I want to see this hard work rewarded,'' she said.
''You know, he's kind of been in trouble recently, so I'm not associated with that at the moment. But, you know, if he cleans up his image...''
Eugenie - who is named after Princess Eugenie - will take on Petra Kvitova in the July 5 final.
Meanwhile a host of famous faces from the world of film, sport and fashion are expected watch the Wimbledon men's semi-finals from the Royal Box today (July 4).
US actor Bradley Cooper is due to sit in the exclusive Centre Court enclosure with his model girlfriend Suki Waterhouse.
Actor Jude Law, golfer Jack Nicklaus, former Irish rugby union captain Brian O'Driscoll and adventurer Bear Grylls are also set to enjoy the best view of the world's most famous tennis lawn, while the strict dress code for players will be under close scrutiny by American Vogue editor Anna Wintour.
They will witness the old guard of tennis attempt to stall the rise of a new generation in the men's game. Milos Raonic and Grigor Dimitrov, both 23, are through to the last four for the first time at a grand slam.
Raonic faces seven-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer, while Andy Murray's conqueror Dimitrov meets top seed Novak Djokovic.

Kendrick gets hurt by the long ball as the Phillies lose to the Marlins, 9-5.
Kyle Kendrick would be hurt by three long balls, while the Phillies would be unable to tie the game up in the ninth as they lose to the Marlins, 9-5. The Phillies would score the game's first run in the second inning, while being unable to blow the game open early. The Phillies would start the inning off with Ryan Howard hitting a single to right. Pat Burrell would follow with a double to left, which would put Howard on third, as the Phils would now have runners on second and third with nobody out. The next batter, Jayson Werth, would then follow with a ground ball to third baseman Jorge Cantu, who would throw the ball to the plate, where John Baker would tag out Howard for the first out of the inning, while Burrell would move up to third and Werth would be safe on first on the fielder's choice ground ball. Pedro Feliz would then hit a second ground ball to Cantu. Unlike the first one, Cantu would bobble the ball when he tried to throw it towards home plate, as the Phillies have already sent Werth on to second on the crack of the bat, preventing at least a force out at second, and forcing Cantu to try to throw to home. Instead, Burrell would score to make it 1-0 Philles as Cantu, after making his first error on the play, because of the bobble, would instead try to throw out Feliz. But, he would instead throw the ball away for his second error on the play, which would send Werth to third and Feliz to second. The next hitter, Chris Coste, would then hit the third straight ball to Cantu, who would send the ball home for the second out of the inning, as Werth is tagged out by Baker, while Feliz would commit a baserunning blunder by staying on second. Kyle Kendrick would then walk to load the bases. Jimmy Rollins would then come up, and hit the fourth grounder of the inning to Cantu, who would throw over to second base to force out Kendrick to end the inning. In the bottom half of the inning, Baker would hit a three-run home run off of Kendrick, his second home run of his career, scoring Mike Jacobs, who has earlier been hit by the pitch, and Cody Ross, who has earlier singled, to make it 3-1 Marlins. Later in the inning, with Hanley Ramirez on second, via a fielder's choice ground out, and a stolen base, would try to score on Cantu's single. Instead, Burrell would throw a strike to home plate for the final out of the inning, as Ramirez is tagged out by Coste. The Phillies would come back to tie the game in the fourth as Coste would hit a RBI double, scoring Feliz, who has earlier tripled, to make it 3-2 Marlins. One out later, Rollins would hit a RBI double, scoring Coste, and tying the game at three all. The Marlins would retake the lead as Baker hit a RBI single, scoring Ross, who has earlier tripled off of Werth's glove, to give the Marlins a 4-3 lead. In the fifth, Burrell would tie the ballgame with his twenty-fourth home run of the year, a solo shot off of Marlins' starter, Scott Olsen. The roof would then cave in on Kendrick in the bottom half of the fifth. Jeremy Hermida would start off the inning by hitting his eleventh home run of the year, to give the Marlins a 5-4 lead. Three batters later, with a runner on first and one out, Dan Uggla would hit his twenty-fourth home run of the year, a two-run shot that would score Josh Willingham, who has earlier singled, to make it 7-4 Marlins. The Marlins would increase their lead in the seventh, when, with the bases loaded, all via walks, and with two outs, Cantu would hit a two-run RBI single, scoring Baker and Ramirez, to give the Marlins a 9-4 lead. In the eighth, Burrell would hit his second solo home run of the game, his twenty-fifth home run of the year, to make it a 9-5 Marlins' lead. Then in the ninth the Phillies would load the bases with one out, after a walk to Geoff Jenkins and singles by Shane Victorino and Chase Utley. But Marlins' closer Kevin Gregg would then strike out Howard and get Burrell to ground out, short to second, to end the game.
Kyle Kendrick would take the lose as he has a bad outing, as he is only able to go four and a third innings, giving up seven earned runs on seven hits. His record is now 8-4 with a 4.87 ERA. Clay Condrey would pitch an inning and two-thirds in relief, giving up no runs on no hits. Rudy Seanez would pitch an inning, giving up two earned runs on one hit, while walking three. Ryan Madson would pitch a scoreless inning, giving up a hit. Scott Olsen would get the win, as he pitches five innings, giving up four runs, three of which were earned, on eight hits. His record is now 6-4 with a 3.84 ERA. Matt Lindstrom and Renyel Pinto would both pitch a scoreless inning. Doug Waechter would pitch an inning, giving up an earned run on one hit. Kevin Gregg would pitch a scoreless ninth, giving up two hits and a walk, while striking out two.
As the Phillies wait for Joe Blanton's first start as a Phil, Kyle Kendrick was once again hurt by left-handed hitters, although he would go after right-handed batters in this game, pitching them inside. Kendrick may need to have a long talk with Jamie Moyer to figure out what he will need to do to keep lefties from hurting him in future outings, since, according to a graphic that was shown during the ballgame, over 60 percent of the hits that he has so far given up in his short career has been to left handers. Although one of the two Fox Sports' announcer would call him a number three pitcher, I see him as a number four pitcher until he can finally solve that problem. As for the Phillies' starters, I see the team's ace as Cole Hamels, I expect Blanton to become the number two starter, eating up the innings, Moyer as their number three starter, with Kendrick as number four. As for the number five starter, I'm sure Charlie Manuel and the silent idiots expect it to be Brett Myers once he comes back from the minors. Not me, folks. I'm hoping that management will soon come to their senses and bring back J.A. Happ from Lehigh Valley, so that he can help the team.
The Phillies (53-45) will conclude their three games series with the Marlins (51-46) tomorrow afternoon. The game will be played at Dolphin Stadium and will start at 1:10 pm Eastern. The Phillies will send to the mound their ace Cole Hamels (9-6, 3.15), who is coming off a no-decision against the Diamondbacks on July 13, as he went seven innings, giving up only two earned runs on eleven hits, in the Phillies' 6-3 win. In two previous meetings this year against the Marlins, he is 0-1, going thirteen and two-thirds innings, as he gives up nine earned runs on eleven hits. Lifetime, he is 2-3 against the fish in six starts, with a 4.78 ERA. He will be trying to get his tenth win of the year while trying to give the Phillies their third straight series win and their first series win of the second half. The Marlins will counter with Josh Johnson (0-0, 5.40), who is pitching in place of the injured Andrew Miller. He has so far pitched in only one game this year, a relief stint against the Dodgers on July 10, where he would pitch five innings, giving up three earned runs on six hits, in the Marlins' 5-4 win. He will be trying for his first victory of the year, and trying to help the Marlins get their first series win of the second half.
With the lost, the Phillies are still leading the Mets by a games as the Mets lost to the Reds. The Marlins now trail the Phillies by a game and a half. The Braves still trail the Phillies by six and a half games, as they also lost their game. The Phillies will be trying for their third straight series win with their ace on the mound, while hoping to get ready for their three games series with the second place Mets.

Whenever the balloon is grasped, the robot turns its attention to the red balloon. When the green balloon is released, tracking turns again to it and the red balloon is ignored.

It can also do this using vision alone along with some trigonometry, but the result is more reliable when using the sensor.

Okay. I'm confused.
We all know that Itachi gave Sasuke the remaining of his power, the amaterasu, before he died.
But I see everywhere that Itachi also gave Naruto half of his power, too, in order to save Konohagakure from Sasuke. Although I have no clue when that happened, I must have missed it on the manga.
Also some places say that it is perfectly true that Itachi gave some of his power to Naruto, although it is unknown. What?? How would some people state this as a fact if it is still unknown?
If it talks about it in the manga somewhere, the reference would mean a lot, thanks. I'll rep you for it.

OCALA, Fla. - An 81-year-old man shot a 28-year-old who he said followed him in his truck for 20 minutes before trying to rob him, according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies said James Stevens shot Lonnie L. Hollingsworth Jr. in Ocala on Sunday, leaving him in critical condition.
According to the Sheriff's Office, Stevens said Hollingsworth followed him and approached his truck after he parked.
Hollingsworth said, "Give me everything you got," and Stevens shot him one time in the stomach, according to deputies.
A neighbor who called 911 thought the shooting was fatal.
"The guy that lives across the street was parking his truck in the field and somebody tried to rob him and he shot and killed him," the caller said. "He's an old man."
The Sheriff's Office said deputies performed "life-saving techniques" on Hollingsworth until rescue personnel arrived.
Deputies referred to Hollingsworth as the suspect but did not specify what charges he may face. Stevens does not face any charges, deputies said.
An investigation is ongoing.

Chacin cruises in DC as Rockies halt slide at five
WASHINGTON -- Batting practice is a happy time for a club. There are no slumps. Even pitchers feel like sluggers. So Rockies right-hander Jhoulys Chacin decided to carry a taste of batting practice into Saturday afternoon's game at Nationals Park.
After asking the permission of manager Walt Weiss and obtaining the blessing of some of the other team leaders, Chacin determined that the club would wear batting practice jerseys instead of one of the game tops. The Rockies then slugged their way to a 7-1 victory in front of 35,787.Full Game Coverage
WASHINGTON -- Batting practice is a happy time for a club. There are no slumps. Even pitchers feel like sluggers. So Rockies right-hander Jhoulys Chacin decided to carry a taste of batting practice into Saturday afternoon's game at Nationals Park.
After asking the permission of manager Walt Weiss and obtaining the blessing of some of the other team leaders, Chacin determined that the club would wear batting practice jerseys instead of one of the game tops. The Rockies then slugged their way to a 7-1 victory in front of 35,787.Full Game Coverage
"We always hit in BP, so I wanted to see what would happen -- stop it [the streak] right here," said Chacin (6-3), who not only picked the wardrobe, but held the Nationals scoreless for seven innings, on five hits with three strikeouts.
It's not clear if Chacin's fashion choice had anything to do with it, but a Rockies team that scored a total of seven runs while losing the first five games of its trip came alive.
DJ LeMahieu hit his first home run of the season and finished with three hits to improve to 9-for-21 for the trip. Callup Corey Dickerson doubled twice in his Major League debut. Nolan Arenado homered for the sixth time this season, and first time since June 7.
One person who didn't need a change of fashion was Michael Cuddyer, who singled home a first-inning run to reach base for his club-record 38th straight game and extend his hit streak to 20 games, three shy of current hitting coach Dante Bichette's team record (May 22-June 18, 1995).
"I see a lot of smiles in the clubhouse, which is nice," Cuddyer said.
The Rockies began with a different look and finished with a fresh outlook.
Friday night's 2-1 loss dropped them below .500 for the first time since Opening Day. But by pounding out 12 hits in Saturday's victory, the Rockies climbed to 38-38 and can gain a split with a victory Sunday afternoon. They've not lost a series at Nationals Park since it opened in 2008.
"It's all about winning games," Weiss said. "You don't want to dwell too much on what's happened the previous four or five days or the previous week. You show up the next day and try to win a ballgame."
The Rockies have been stymied by hot pitching from the Blue Jays and the Nationals throughout the trip. They managed two runs in the first two games of the Nationals series against Jordan Zimmermann and Stephen Strasburg. But they scored three first-inning runs off beleaguered Dan Haren (4-9), who was booed off the field after yielding six runs in 3 1/3 innings.
"I've never gone through this stuff in my career," said Haren, whose 6.15 ERA is highest among National League starters eligible to be listed among the leaders. "There's self-doubt that obviously creeps in for everybody whenever they're not doing well, and obviously I've been struggling for a while now."
LeMahieu, whose homer off Haren began a three-run first, has boosted his average from .233 on June 5 to .299.
"It's a lot of fun to go to the plate right now," LeMahieu said.
Carlos Gonzalez doubled and Cuddyer singled him home. With two out in the first, Dickerson lined a pitch into left-center to score Cuddyer and hustled for a double.
Dickerson had led the Pacific Coast League with a .386 batting average at Triple-A Colorado Springs. Cuddyer, being a concerned vet, worried that fans didn't know Dickerson was the new guy.
"I was like, 'Man, a guy gets his Major League debut and nobody knows who it is,'" Cuddyer said, noting that the Rockies' BP tops do not have players' surnames.
Dickerson said, "Uniforms don't matter to me. I was excited to play. After that first at-bat, my nerves were calm. It's great when we win and I'm just glad I can bring energy or whatever I can bring to this team to help out."
Chacin kept the Nationals from gaining any energy.
"Us getting behind three runs in the first inning was a big part of it, and then he just made a lot of good pitches, with both his fastball and his breaking stuff," said Nationals manager Davey Johnson, whose team averted a shutout when Ryan Zimmerman homered off Wilton Lopez in the ninth.
Chacin had a 1.46 ERA before suffering a back strain in April, and labored upon his return. But in his last three starts -- all wins -- Chacin has posted a 1.74 ERA and given up 18 hits in 20 2/3 innings.
"For the first two or three [starts], I was a little bit worried -- 'Just don't get hurt again,'" Chacin said. "But I really feel fine. I don't feel anything."
Suddenly, Chacin and his fellow starters look intriguing.
Sunday starter Jorge De La Rosa is coming off holding the Blue Jays to one run in seven innings. Tyler Chatwood has a 2.22 ERA in eight starts. Roy Oswalt struck out 11 in five innings in his Rockies debut Thursday night, and his command is expected to improve.
"You look at the big picture, overall this year, they've done very well and they're even picking it up as we go along," Weiss said.

I use soft fresh whole milk mozzarella that I cut into 1/2 inch cubes.
Ginos, Aniellos, and Ricos all use low moisture mozzarella, the kind you find in brick-like packages in the supermarket. From looking at photos, it appears that Anellios is using a higher quality low moisture whole milk mozza, but nobody's using fresh.Fresh mozzarella is incredibly counterproductive in the style of pizza you're attempting to make. Even if you cut your bake time to something more Aniellos-ish, it's still too long for fresh. All these places are about as far away from coal pizza as you can get, while still barely hanging on to the NY style label.
Tell me a bit about your oven. Gas or electric? The dial goes to 550, correct?
A lot of that fat/oil is from your parm/romano, asiago is also very fatty. I like those cheeses shredded fine and put on right as they come out of the oven rather than mix with the mozz. Swiss and Provalone I like to blend with the mozz sometimes. Take a selection of cheeses and put a small amount on a small plate and nuke til cheese is melted and almost hard. One, it's a very tasty snack and 2, you'll be amazed at the oil that comes out of parm, romano, asiago and other hard cheeses. Brie will all but disappear leaving a bunch of oil behind. I find that mozz leaves more water behind than oil especially with the fresh ones. Trial and error will get you to the right mixes/blends and brands. Just some thoughts.Jon
I have considered going out and buying some stones or bricks for my oven but honestly I don't think there is that big of a difference if it doesn't cut down cook time.
Eric, your forming practice is definitely paying off. Your pies are improving immensely.The cook time is directly proportional to the thickness and the heat transfer rate (conductivity) of your baking hearth. The thicker the hearth, the more heat it can store, the faster the bake. The cookie sheet you're using is probably pretty conductive, but it's a fraction of an inch thin, so it can't transfer much heat, if any, to the pizza. A thicker material will give you a faster bake time, and a faster bake time will give you a better, less bready, better colored pie.The best material we're seeing right now for fast bake times is steel- 1/2" steel plate. It's readily available and not that expensive. It's heavy, but it's heft is what allows it to store a lot of heat- enough heat to give you any NY bake time that you want, allowing you to match any NY style pizzeria on the planet. This is, by far, the single biggest barrier to home bakers seeking to reproduce pizzeria quality results at home. Match their bake times and you can match their pizzas.

After going to Toronto to get a road win our schedule gets rough, tough, with oponents two to three times better than the Raptors. So we better attack Boston twice as hard as the "LebronLess" Cavs did to take it to a crunchtime game. Doing this may give us the team-confidence we been looking for to gain chemistry for our upcoming Knick schedule.
@ Raptors- won
@ Boston
Portland .... Home Opener!
Orlando ..... 2nd home game
@ Chicago
Washington .... a must win game, after playing the Bulls the night before
Philly ..... 4th home game
@ Bucks
GSW ..... 5th home game
@ Minny
Houston ..... after our 6th home game we go on a road trip for 4 games vs
Do u see us going on a 3 game win streak in our first 14 games?
Owner Dolan only cares about winning our home games (someone better whisper this to Dantoni).

The author/artist put out some material. The publishing company published it for them. Both of those entities want you to pay for it. Now, assuming it's not fair use, why should you, as a third party, be able to decide "I choose not to pay for this? I choose not to respect the wishes of the artist & publisher?"
If someone violates the GPL, we're up in arms about it. Why? It violates what the author of the GPL-covered item wanted. Why is this
Why make it so complicated? It's really pretty simple.
I was objecting to your use of stole. I think it's wrong to deprive people of money they deserve. I also think it's wrong to call it stealing. If you choose to download an artist's work you haven't stolen from them, you've deprived them of potential income.
Really, what is it, if it's not stealing? If you hadn't done it, they'd be richer. You did it, and now they're poorer. Sucks to be you.
If you hadn't done it, they'd be richer. You did it, and now they're poorer.
My point is that they are not poorer. They're just not richer.
And why is it OK for someone other than the author to decide that that's OK to do?
How about this? How about if we say "Using the materials in a way that the author specifically doesn't want is an asshole thing to do?"
The "depriving" argument is inspecific; that's a big problem with most of these arguments.
If you pick up one of my books in the bookstore, read the back cover, and decide not to buy it, are you "depriving [me] of potential income"? I think so, but you're not stealing or infringing my copyright.
The second is a lot better -- but even though I disclaim responsibility and specifically allow all sorts of uses of Free Software that I write and distribute, I'd still prefer people not use it to do things I con

He said the $1,098,955 will allow the county to replace its daily communication system. The system will allow for new handheld and mobile units for the sheriff's department, as well as ambulances, Office of Emergency Management, Pope County 911 and the county road department. In addition, the cities of Hector, Pottsville, Atkins, London and Dover will receive units.
"This will increase our coverage tremendously," DuVall said.
He added the units will be equipped with GPS, which will allow for added safety measures. Other Arkansas communities, including Clarksville, Vilonia and Van Buren County are using the same type of system with success, and Arkansas Nuclear One are looking to switch to the Moto Turbo system as well. In the meantime, DuVall said the county will retain its current communication system to communicate with outside agencies, such as the Russellville Police Department, when needed.
The county will own the communications system, DuVall said. Sgt. Jamie Jackson added the county began seeking the grant as part of its effort to comply with federal communications regulations by 2013.
Payroll debate continues
Although Justice Don Daily noted the court had previously made the decision to switch from a 26-pay period payroll system to a 24-pay period system, the move has failed to garner support with county employees.
Justice Madelyn Ginsberg said she was approached by several road department employees at last month's countywide cleanup event who told her they would like to keep the current pay schedule. Justice Tom McMillen said he had a petition signed by 80 county employees who did not want to got to a 24 pay period system.
Daily said the system would avoid the struggles the county has every 11 years when the bi-weekly payroll system ends up with 27 pay periods instead of 26.
The ordinance was read for a second time by title only Thursday and will be voted on at next month's meeting, although it is as yet unclear whether the matter will garner the support needed to pass.
"I'm with the employees," Justice Shirley Chisum said. "We've got good employees, and I want to keep them."
In other business Thursday, the court took the following actions:
- tabled a proposal to appropriate $6,640 to fund an addendum to The Walker Collaborative's contract with the city of Russellville to perform a site-specific study on the renovation or relocation of the county annex building.
- approved the appointment of Phil Wright to the Pope County Ambulance Board.
- approved a request for appropriations in the amount of $2,166 for the Pope County Firefighters Association. Pope County Judge Jim Ed Gibson submitted the request. The funds were donated to the firefighters association by the Arkansas Fluid Transporters Association.
- approved the transfer of $5,500 from full-time to part-time salaries in the detention center fund.
- approved the transfer of $25,000 from salaries to repair parts and operating supplies in the Emergency Medical Services fund.
- approved the transfer of $700 from part-time salaries to overtime in the Election Commission fund.

text: The West Muskingum Board of Education meeting was also held tonight. Superintendent Sharon Smith says that their main focus was discussing the potential levy that would be for general operating costs. She says their current revenue is not sufficient to cover expected expenditures. Smith says the levy is important to have because the state has warned school districts of future budget cuts, so this money would ensure that they have the appropriated funds needed. There is no date set for when the levy will be put on the ballot, but she says it will happen at some point this year. Future meetings will be held on the matter.

Ten years ago, Nathan Flomm (Larry David) had a successful career as the head of marketing for a start-up electric car company, but a disagreement with his boss Will Haney (Jon Hamm) led Nathan to walk away and sell back his shares of the companys stock. Soon after, the company became one of the most successful companies in the world, leaving Nathan reeling over the 10% he gave up that wouldve been worth millions. The resulting public humiliation sent Nathan fleeing for exile. A decade later, Nathan lives a simple life on Marthas Vineyard and goes by the alias Rolly DeVore.

Destiny International Ministries recently held their first "End of The Summer Picnic" to celebrate the first year in their new home, the former Lemington Elementary School.
Destiny bought the school from the Board of Education last year and has since renamed the school, now known as "The Pittsburgh Dream Center," and also the home of Destiny International Ministries and Destiny School of Theology & Leadership. In the near future, the Dream Center will also include Destiny Christian Academy, Pittsburgh's first all-boys leadership academy servicing primarily inner-city, minority children (grades pre-K-fifth).
|PROUD DAY—From left: Jackie Dixon, pastors Michael and Donna Smith, Tom O'Brien and Kathleen Carson smile for the camera.
The picnic was a great success and was attended by many, including Giant Eagle's Government Relations, Jackie Dixon; City Councilman Rev. Ricky Burgess; former PNCBank CEO Tom O'Brien; Bill Neal of Champions Enterprise Inc. and the United Rays Corvette Club. There was an abundance of food, camaraderie and spiritual welcome, and all that attended said they look forward to next year's picnic.
Senior Pastor Michael Smith and his wife, Assistant Pastor Donna Smith, are the co-founders of the eight-year-old ministry and have plans to add a day care, Head Start, and after-school programs to the facility.

OCEAN CITY – The Hampton Inn and Suites construction project received approval this week to work with heavy machinery in extended hours throughout the day as long as they respect the property's neighbors.
The project on 44th Street requested an extension in the time allowed to work with excavating equipment from the current restriction of 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to the hours of 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., while working on returning the wetlands mitigation lines back to the 1972 mark.
"We are going into the wetlands with an excavator and we are extending it and bringing it back to the 1972 line which was part of the agreement in building the project," Sens General Contractors' Dave Rainy said.
According to the Environment Protection Agency, the U.S. government moved to restrict development of wetlands by passing the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972, which later became the Clean Water Act. Section 404 of the Clean Water Act regulates the placement of dredge and fills materials in the "Waters of the United States," which has been interpreted to include a broad range of wetlands.
Rainy explained the project's wetland mitigation work is being conflicted by the tide, which has to be low in order to excavate, and the restriction of hours.
"We have been working the best we can with the tide as well as these restrictions but it is taking us a lot longer than we anticipated doing," he said.
Rainy added that crews also are running the risk of damage or a pollutant discharge into the wetlands while working during hurricane season.
"We haven't had that as of yet," he said. "We went through the hurricane last week and we didn't have any discharge whatsoever into the wetlands."
He said if the Mayor and City Council were to approve the extension of hours it would be easier to get the work done and out of the way before another storm approaches.
Councilman Doug Cymek expressed his concern over the machinery causing a disruption to the project's neighbors.
Councilman Joe Hall set the motion to approve the extension of excavation hours but did not want to limit the project's work to week days only.
"I want them to get the work done as soon as possible so their finished and out of there and the wetlands are protected," he said. "Respect your neighbors but get the job done."

Gang 'exploited teenage girls'
A gang targeted vulnerable teenage girls through social networking sites before sexually exploiting and gang-raping them, prosecutors have told a court.
Five men are standing trial at Cambridge Crown Court accused of trafficking and raping eight girls who were aged between 13 and 16 at the time of the allegations, which date between 2008 and 2013.
Prosecutor Patricia Lynch told jurors that the girls were vulnerable not only because of their age but also their "difficult" social backgrounds.
Opening the case against the defendants, four of whom are Pakistani, she added: "This case involves the deliberate sexual exploitation of young vulnerable white girls by a group of older Asian men.
"These defendants singled out these girls because of their vulnerability.
"Contact started and continued through Facebook, Blackberry messaging, text messaging and mobile phones."
After being "chatted up" online, the victims would be collected from near their homes in towns and villages around Peterborough, Rutland and Lincolnshire before being driven to secluded spots in Peterborough, Ms Lynch said.
She added that once they had gained their confidence and plied them with alcohol, the men, all from Peterborough, "passed the girls around" and used them as "sex objects."
Some of the abuse. including degrading acts, was filmed on a mobile phone and jurors will be shown this footage.
Yasir Ali, 28, of Grange Road, denies six counts of rape, two of making indecent photographs of children, one of sexual activity in the presence of a child, seven of trafficking and one of witness intimidation.
Daaim Ashraf, 19, of Almoners Lane, denies three counts of rape, one of sexual assault, one of sexual activity with a child, one of sexual activity in the presence of a child, seven of trafficking and one of witness intimidation.
Akash Yasin, 18, of Gladstone Street, denies one count of sexual assault and two of trafficking.
James Daly, 25, of Grange Road, denies one count of rape.
Mohammed Aslam, 24, of Grange Road, denies one count of rape and one of sexual activity in the presence of a child.
Ms Lynch said that the men would initially flatter and gain the confidence of the girls, who cannot be named for legal reasons.
But later they would use them for sex in hotels and cars.
Ms Lynch said: "In their drunken condition the girls would either be used for sex or passed between the defendants for sex."
The allegations came to light after social services raised concerns with police.
Ms Lynch said: "Many of these girls come from extremely troubled backgrounds.
"Some of them come from chaotic backgrounds, some display behavioural issues, some sexualised behaviour and alcohol or drug issues.
"Their very young age, their vulnerability, the grooming process and the use of alcohol negates any consent that they may have given.
"They were effectively used as sex objects by these defendants."
Ms Lynch added that Ali, the oldest of the defendants, was "undoubtedly the primary offender".
Known to the girls as Mr Nice or his Facebook name Sketcher Piddocks, he is accused of initiating much of the contact.
Describing the experience of one of the victims, who had spent time in a young offenders' institute, Ms Lynch said that the first time she was raped, the girl was so drunk on vodka that she wanted to go to sleep. Ali had sex with her despite her saying she did not want to.
She added that after the first time they had sex, Ali would cease to be an "attentive, loving boyfriend" and began "farming her out" to other men.
On one occasion, Ali's friend Daly forcibly removed her clothes before having sex with her against her wishes, Ms Lynch said.
She added: "When she told Ali, who she thought was her boyfriend, what happened, he laughed."
Ms Lynch added that later when the girl told Ali she was pregnant with his child, he called her a "slag" and assaulted her.
A second victim said she was raped by Ali in 2008 despite him knowing she was 15 and still at school.
He went on to abuse her on several occasions before ending contact after her sixteenth birthday, the victim told police.
Two other girls, aged 14 at the time, were sexually assaulted by Yasin and Ashraf on the same night despite one of them being in the early stages of pregnancy.
The case is expected to last up to eight weeks.
Ms Lynch added that after the men were questionned by police, Ashraf and Ali threatened one of the girls, telling her that if the case went to court the defendants would "make their lives hell" and that their houses may be firebombed.

Now, on the eve of their 20th high-school reunion, Allie, a temp worker, finds herself suddenly single, a little chubby, and feeling old. Olivia, a cool and successful magazine beauty editor in New York, realizes she's lonely, and is finally ready to face her demons. Sometimes hope lives in the future; sometimes it comes from the past; and sometimes, when every stupid thing goes wrong, it comes from a prettily packaged jar filled with scented cream and promises.
Beth Harbison has done it again. A hilarious and touching novel about friendship, Love's Baby Soft perfume, Watermelon Lip Smackers, bad run-ins with Sun-In, and the healing power of "Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific." Hope in a Jar: we all need it.

There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"Very Light Read... But Just 'OK'"
The book started with a bang and I must confess that was what immediately drew me into the title. To be honest however, after that, the book kinda fizzled... There were some very note-worthy sections in the book, sections that make you smile and laugh, sections that make you shake your head and others that make you simply leave you mildly surprised. The thing that takes away from the book however I have found is that it is rather predictable. After the first couple chapters one starts knowing what to expect throughout the rest of the title. Generally, it is an 'ok' book, with an 'ok' story-line and an 'above average' performance. Overall... the book is simply.... 'ok'.
"friends come and go but ....."
I really liked this story. I loved the turns the story took several times. Was fast fun I had to sit in the car a few times to finish a chaper before I could stop. I like the ending and how lifes challanges did not always turn out happy and peaceful but like in real life the bumps hurt and the tides do turn. great addition glad I got it.
"Fun read"
Beth Harbison catches the dialogue, feelings, and life of women quite well. A fast, easy listen that kept my attention throughout.
"Too light"
I was looking for something light....unfortunately this story was too light in that it was completely predictable. You knew exactly what was going to happen, and the characters were unbelievable. Seriously, Ali is 38 and has been friends with Noah since middle school and has no clue he has feelings for her? The author should have stuck with the flashbacks where the characters felt more real and published as a YA book.
"Love it!"
Beth Harbison's books are fanatic! Can't wait to read or hear the next one!
"takes me back to my growing up days"
great story, so relatable to so much of my life. I'm always amazed how Beth Harbison can put so many feelings into words. Orlagh did a great job as always, too.
"Slow and steady wins the race!"
Starts off slower than a typical Beth Haribson book but if you can stick with it up until the middle, it's a great read and gives you all of the sarcasm and wit of a Haribson book!
"I love this one too."
I love love loved Hope in a Jar. I t was funny and witty, with a fun flair. I couldn't stop listening.
"I loved it"
best friends forever
the flashbacks were a really enjoyable touch as was the 80's ads
Allie was definitely bought alive by Orlagh Cassidy
"An easy listen with great narrator!"
It is a tiny bit interesting, not too much drama. Women making bigger deals out of things than they should. But I got through the whole thing, wanted to keep going and see where it went. A bit predictable with some moments of interest. Love Orlagh Cassidy, it's usually why I get her books. I guess I would say read it. Don't except any problems based on real issues...mainly misunderstanding and silly fears.

Yesterday Diddy, Usher, Faith Evans and more shared touching tributes to the Notorious B.I.G. on the 20th anniversary of his murder. The most unusual (and fanciest) tribute of all happened from the floor of the House of Representatives, where Brooklyn Congressman Hakeem Jeffries rapped some lyrics from "Juicy" and shared an uplifting take on Biggie's life story.

"It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up! magazine / Salt-n-Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine / Hangin' pictures on my wall / Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl," Jeffries rapped.
"Biggie Smalls, Frank White, the king of New York," Jeffries continued, "He died 20 years ago today in a tragedy that occurred in Los Angeles. But his words live on forever."
He concluded by saying Biggie's success story is aspirational among his community.
"I got the privilege of representing the district where Biggie Smalls was raised. We know he went from negative to positive and emerged as one of the world most important hip hop stars. His rags-to-riches life story is the classic embodiment of the American dream. Biggie Smalls is gone but he will never be forgotten. Rest in piece Notorious B.I.G.. Where Brooklyn at?"
Watch Jeffries' unorthodox address to the House floor:

CORPORAL Kevin Rankin has been to many Anzac commemorations across the country during his years of service and he reckons Sydney's dawn service is one of the best.
"It was great, very good," the bright-eyed soldier said.
"I went to Canberra last year and they're all unique. But it doesn't take away from how great this one is."
Thousands were crammed into Martin Place, standing sombrely as dignitaries, veterans and serving defence personnel arrived in the early morning dark.
The service officially began when NSW Governor Marie Bashir entered, the last time she will do so in office.
Hymns were sung and memorial poems read before Ms Bashir pronounced The Dedication and laid a wreath on behalf of the NSW public.
NSW Premier Mike Baird, Immigration Minister Scott Morrison, federal deputy opposition leader Tanya Plibersek and state opposition leader John Robertson were in attendance along with consuls general from Turkey, New Zealand, Canada and France and the heads of the state's emergency services.
Giving the commemorative address, Lieutenant General Ken Gillespie said it was important to remember the sacrifices made by diggers from all conflicts and their families.
"Their sacrifice, their ideals and their fame will continue to influence our society and give us great courage for the future," he said.
"It has been written that a nation that cannot remember its dead will soon cease to be worth dying for."
Mark James Weston served in Afghanistan with the fifth Australian Regiment from October 2010 to July 2011.
He's been attending Anzac commemorations since he was a kid but it's the first time he's been to the service at Martin Place.
"Normally I just go to the Campbelltown one but it was very good," he said, standing proud in a grey suit with his service medals over his heart.
"It was a different atmosphere. It's good to see so many people here and a lot of kids as well."
Afghanistan veterans will lead this march, expected to feature about 20,000 former and current defence personnel, and retired private Weston thinks this is a "good tribute" to the younger soldiers.
"A lot of people can easily recognise older veterans but I think it's only been in the past decade younger veterans have had started coming into it," he said.
"It's nice to see the public seeing younger veterans more out the front and more common place."
Before heading off into the dark streets to prepare for the upcoming march, Corporal Rankine, 39, had a question of his own.
"Where's the nearest pub, mate?"

With Microsoft having just completed development on two
major software releases and having recently secured a
partnership with Novell on Suse Linux, Bill Gates surely has a lot to talk
about. CNET's Ina Fried was able to interview Microsoft's founder and get his
thoughts on the recent happenings at Microsoft.
Right of the bat, the discussion turned towards Windows
Vista. The operating system went gold two weeks ago and
is due to be available to retail customers on January 30. Bill Gates was
drilled on the future of the SQL-based WinFS (Windows Future Storage). The
feature was due to ship with Vista and was later dropped altogether.
"Well, you definitely still want a structured look for
certain kinds of rich query. And if we're going to bring all these things of
e-mail and files and photos, bring it together fully, we need more than just
the search indexing. Search indexing takes you further than people expect, I
would say. But eventually you'll need more of a database-type look to these
things," said Gates.
Gates also went on to talk about the recent partnership with
Novell. "In general, Linux is not nearly as high-volume as Windows is on
servers. But (it's) significant, so customers want new kinds of
interoperability." Gates goes on to say "We've done fantastic things
on interoperability. Here, we're doing virtual machine interoperability. So you
can just have a pool of hardware and applications that use Linux, applications
that use Windows, and just have the VM manage which one needs more resource,
which one is done, which one needs to be restarted."
On the subject of Microsoft's Xbox 360 console, which now
has prime competition in the form of the Sony PlayStation 3 and
Nintendo Wii, Gates
is quite confident in the gaming platform. In fact, Gates wasted no time in
touting Microsoft's enviable one-year head start on the market. "You know,
Sony can make 80,000 bricks, and people would buy them. So the real
competition--you're going to see the impact of our innovation and all the
momentum we have in Christmas 2007. This Christmas, the story is: XBox 360 is
going to sell super-well, and they'll sell the rounding error amounts they can

I'm confused, if Amir is the 3rd big, who is the 2nd?
And I'm not exactly comfortable with him shooting 3's at this point, so I guess he is going to have to prove to me that he can do it, and the only way to do that is to shoot them. But he has to make them at a decent clip, or for me it's just a waste of a possession because it would be just as well to draw up a play for a 3 pointer from Lowry or one of the wings, and have

Souper Speedy to Stretch Out in $1 million Sunshine Millions Preview Card
Parranda No One-Trick Filly in $125,000 Filly & Mare Turf Preview
Sr. Quisqueyano Seeks 3rd Stakes Win of Meet in $150,000 Classic Preview
Unfortunately, the Tom Albertrani-trained colt didn't return to the races for nearly a year and hasn't run around two turns since his Remsen run.
Souper Speedy is slated to make his long-awaited return to two-turn racing Saturday at Gulfstream Park in the $150,000 Sunshine Millions Classic Preview, one of eight races for Florida-bred horses worth a total of $1 million.
"He ran long as a 2-year-old and he ran very well," Albertrani said. "We brought him back sprinting and he's done very well going seven-eighths, so we didn't make any changes on distance. But we've always felt that maybe he wanted to stretch out. We thought this would be a good opportunity to bring him back and stretch him out."
Souper Speedy, who finished third in a one-turn mile allowance at Gulfstream on April 3, won three of four seven-furlong races in New York, including the Jaipur, in which he finished a close second and was placed first through the disqualification of stablemate Big Screen, who had forced him out through the stretch. In his most recent race, he finished fourth in the one-turn mile Kelso (G2) after tracking heavily favored Graydar in the early stages.
Jose Lezcano has the return mount aboard Souper Speedy, who was rated second in the morning line at 3-1 for the Classic Preview, which also attracted 2-1 morning-line favorite Jackson Bend. Albertrani views the 1 1/16-mile distance of Saturday race as ideal for the purpose of stretching out Souper Speedy.
"His last races going shorter, he's got some natural speed that's going to put him into the race going into the first turn," he said.
Parranda No One-Trick Filly in $125,000 Filly & Mare Turf Preview
Trainer Rodolfo Garcia wasn't surprised that Parranda captured the $100,000 Our Dear Peggy Stakes at Gulfstream Park on Sept. 28, but he was caught off guard by the manner in which she won the turf stakes for Florida-bred fillies and mares.
The 4-year-old, who had established herself as an off-the-pace closer in the first 15 races of her career, broke alertly to press the early pace before moving to the lead leaving the turn into the homestretch and drawing off to win by 2 ¼ lengths.
"I was really surprised. When I saw the race, there was no pace and she's always been a closer. She was right there at the beginning," Garcia said. "I'm not saying we'll change her style, but the race proved that she can adjust to a no-pace race and still give it her best. That day she broke and wanted to be with them."
The 4-year-old daughter of English Channel is slated to return to action in Saturday's $125,000 Sunshine Millions Filly & Mare Turf Preview at Gulfstream.
"The race looks to have more speed, and that always is going to play better for her," Garcia said. "I don't foresee her being so close this time, but I also know if she needs to be closer, she can do it and still close."
Lone Stable's Parranda debuted victoriously at Gulfstream Park on Feb. 4, 2012, closing from ninth to prevail at 67-1 before being sidelined with physical issues a few months later.
"There were issues with some bleeding and she had a small injury for a while. She went away and when she came back, all of those problems disappeared and she stepped it up and she's been maturing," said Garcia, whose filly returned to win at Gulfstream last winter.
Prior to the Our Dear Peggy, Parranda spent the summer at Monmouth Park, where she captured an allowance race and finished a fast-closing second in the Omnibus Stakes.
"Ever since she went up north and came back, I could see her attitude around the barn and the way she trained. I think that race showed how much she's matured," Garcia said. "I've always felt that these grass horses get better the older they get."
Sr. Quisqueyano Seeks 3rd Stakes Win of Meet in $150,000 Classic Preview
DDRD Racing's Sr. Quisqueyano is entered to make a bid for a third stakes victory during the current meeting at Gulfstream in Saturday's $150,000 Sunshine Millions Classic Preview. The Luis Olivares-trained 3-year-old has defeated older horses in both of his local stakes wins, both coming at Saturday's distance of 1 1/16 miles.
The son of Exclusive Quality captured the Eight Miles East Stakes on Aug. 24 after setting the pace and holding off veteran Where's Sterling by a neck, After turning back to a one-turn mile in the Monbrook Stakes, in which he finished fourth after pressing the early pace, Sr. Quisqueyano grabbed an easy lead on his way to a 2 ¼-length victory in the Quality Road Stakes on Oct. 5.
"He's training great. He loves to train," Olivares said. "I give him three days after he runs, and when I take him back to the track, he's powerful."
With the presence of Super Speedy in the seven-horse Classic Preview field, grabbing an easy lead may not be quite so easy Saturday.
"There looks like there's more speed in the race, but you don't know. Sometimes the speed breaks bad and you end up in front," Olivares said. "He doesn't need the lead. He can lay second. There's no problem. But if they give him an easy lead, that'd be perfect for him."

Marmol day to day after injuring hamstring
By Joe Morgan / MLB.com
ATLANTA -- Marlins reliever Carlos Marmol is day to day after suffering a right hamstring injury in the bottom of the seventh inning of a 3-1 loss to the Braves on Wednesday.
Miami will check on Marmol's status again on Thursday.
"I guess [Marmol] said he's done that before and been able to pitch through it, but we'll have to wait and see how that is tomorrow," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said.
Marmol, 31, recorded two outs before walking Jason Heyward. Marmol appeared to injure his hamstring while throwing ball four to Heyward. The pitch went high and outside, prompting Miami catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia to trot out to the mound and check on the right-hander.
After an on-mound meeting with Marmol and a trainer, Redmond decided to pull Marmol for southpaw Mike Dunn. Dunn struck out Andrelton Simmons swinging to strand Heyward at first and end the inning.
Marlins promote righty reliever Capps from Triple-A
ATLANTA -- For Carter Capps to earn a spot in the Marlins' bullpen, he needed to be more consistent in the strike zone. With 17 strikeouts and a 1.64 ERA in 11 innings for Triple-A New Orleans this season, Capps has improved the way Miami had hoped he would.
The Marlins recalled Capps on Wednesday morning to replace right-hander Arquimedes Caminero. Caminero was optioned to New Orleans following Tuesday night's 1-0 win against the Braves at Turner Field.
Capps, who has worked on getting his fastball down in the zone and improving his command, changed up his delivery with the Zephyrs after recording a 3.60 ERA in 10 innings out of the bullpen during Spring Training.
"I was just trying to get back to what I naturally do instead of trying to just pitch like somebody else wanted me to," said Capps, who learned of his promotion at 10 p.m. on Tuesday and flew from New Orleans to Atlanta at 6 a.m. on Wednesday.
"It's kind of more like just getting to the natural delivery and letting the arm flow, because I was fighting myself a little bit, trying to get a little too over the top when I'm a little bit of a lower-arm slot guy."
Manager Mike Redmond has not decided what role the right-hander would play in the bullpen, but he is eager to use Capps, whom Miami acquired on Dec. 11 in a trade for Logan Morrison. Redmond said it was the "perfect time" to promote him.
Capps, 23, went 3-3 with a 5.49 ERA in 53 appearances out of the Mariners' bullpen last season, and he owns a 5.04 ERA in 84 career big league innings over two seasons with Seattle.
"He's got a big arm," Redmond said. "We loved his arm, and it was just a matter of he hasn't really pitched that long, that many years. It was just a matter of him figuring out his delivery again."
Caminero, 26, took his first career loss on Monday, when he surrendered a walk-off homer to Evan Gattis in the 10th inning of a 4-2 loss to the Braves. Caminero was recalled from New Orleans on April 9 to replace right-handed starter Jacob Turner, whom Miami placed on the 15-day disabled list with a right shoulder sprain.
Caminero has posted a 13.50 ERA (seven earned runs in 4 2/3 innings) in five appearances out of the Miami bullpen this season.
Inching closer, Furcal gets day off
ATLANTA -- Rafael Furcal received a day off in his rehab assignment with Double-A Jacksonville on Wednesday. The veteran infielder, whom the Marlins signed to a one-year deal in December, is working his way back from a left hamstring strain.
Miami anticipates using Furcal as its everyday second baseman.
"He'll play tomorrow," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. "I think the plan for him, as of right now, is to be [in Jacksonville] for a week."
Furcal played in just seven Spring Training games, missing time due to his injury, as well as the birth of his daughter. He is batting .154 (4-for-26) with three walks and a stolen base in seven rehab games between Class A Jupiter and Jacksonville.
Meanwhile, utilityman Ed Lucas is currently rehabbing in Jupiter after suffering a non-displaced fracture in his left hand when he was hit by a fastball from Cardinals pitcher Scott McGregor on March 27. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list on March 30.
"He's not playing," Redmond said. "He's just working out."
Rehab start the next step for Turner
ATLANTA -- Marlins right-hander Jacob Turner will throw 50-60 pitches in a rehab start for Class A Jupiter on Wednesday. Turner was placed on the 15-day disabled list on April 9 with a right shoulder sprain, retroactive to April 4.
"This will be his first game action," Miami manager Mike Redmond said.
Left-hander Brad Hand and right-hander Kevin Slowey have started in Turner's spot the past three runs through the rotation. Slowey recently replaced Hand, who gave up eight earned runs in 6 1/3 combined innings in two starts against the Nationals.
With off-days on Thursday and next Monday, the Marlins considered simply using a four-man rotation of Jose Fernandez, Nathan Eovaldi, Henderson Alvarez and Tom Koehler for the rest of the month until Turner's potential return in early May.
However, the club instead opted to keep Slowey in the rotation in order to help preserve the arms of Fernandez, Eovaldi, Alvarez and Koehler. Fernandez was shut down after 172 2/3 innings his rookie season, Koehler pitched 143 frames last year, Alvarez maxed out at 187 1/3 with the Blue Jays in 2012 and Eovaldi logged 119 1/3 between the Dodgers and the Marlins two years ago.
"We don't rush these guys too much because at the end of the day, at the end of this year, all of these guys are going to be in uncharted territory with their innings and all that stuff," Redmond said. "So it all sounds good at the beginning of the season, but you know how it is the end of the season when these guys are in uncharted territory, so it just made sense to push them back and give them an extra day."
Slowey, who gave up two runs in five innings against the Mariners on Sunday, will start against the Mets on Saturday. He fanned eight in seven scoreless innings of relief in Miami's 2-1 win in 19 innings at Citi Field on June 8, 2013.
"If we could give guys an extra day here, it's going to be better for them down the road," Redmond said of keeping Slowey in the rotation. "It seemed like a fit. Slowey has pitched well against the Mets."

SGI CANADA launches eQuote tool
April 2, 2012
SGI CANADA today unveiled its innovative new eQuote tool, which offers customers a fast, easy and convenient way to research, obtain a quote and purchase extension auto insurance online.
While basic insurance is included with customers' licence plate registration through the Saskatchewan Auto Fund, package policy insurance through SGI CANADA can be purchased to provide extra liability coverage for travel inside and outside of Saskatchewan, for vehicles at risk of cracked windshields or wildlife collisions, or to lower deductibles.
SGI CANADA is the first insurance company in Saskatchewan to allow customers to get a quote and buy auto extension policies online.
"More and more consumers want to do business online," said Andrew Cartmell, President and CEO of SGI CANADA. "This tool meets the changing needs of our customers and a growing population, while maintaining the in-person options and services that currently exist. eQuote provides our customers faster access to information on the many benefits of added auto insurance."
Brokers are an integral part of this new online service, with customers choosing a broker to complete a purchase online.
"Independent insurance brokers remain trusted advisors across Saskatchewan," said Ernie Gaschler, Executive Director of the Insurance Brokers' Association of Saskatchewan. "We know that today's consumer is looking for additional choice for how they research and shop for insurance. The SGI CANADA eQuote tool provides that choice, and ensures the broker continues playing a role in delivering that service to consumers."
eQuote is designed for those who do not yet have a package policy on their vehicle. Upon purchase, policy information will be emailed to the customer.

http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?story_id=16905Grading LVSL Part Two
By: Luke Byrnes Last Updated: 7/23/10 3:57 PM ET
With summer league play now in the rearview mirror, HOOPSWORLD continues to rank the team performances from the Orlando Pro Summer League and the Las Vegas Summer League. You can check out Alex Kennedy's grades from Orlando here and Part One of the Las Vegas Summer League grade here.
Here is Part Two of the Las Vegas Summer League grades
Toronto Raptors (5-0): A
Apparently even the Raptors summer league squad can score and score quickly. This group averaged 98.8 points per game and cracked the century mark four times in five games and won its five games by an average of 14 points per game. DeMar DeRozan and Sonny Weems provided the Raps summer league squad with tremendous athleticism and scoring ability, averaging 21 and 17.5 points per game, respectively, and shooting a combined .505 (56-111) from the field. First-round pick Ed Davis looked really good, running the floor and finishing the break while being active on the defensive end of the floor. He finished summer league third on the team in scoring (12.6 ppg), and second in rebounding (6.0 rpg), blocked shots (1.8 bpg), and field-goal percentage (.632). Second-round pick Solomon Alabi is still a work in progress offensively (although he shot .585 from the field), but rebounded the ball well and protected the rim. Journeyman point guard Bobby Brown was tremendous offensively, making 25-37 (.676) field goals while averaging 12.4 points and four assists (to only 1.4 turnovers) per game. Joey Dorsey continued to be a beast on the glass, averaging 9.8 rebounds (four offensive) in just 20 minutes per game but could be seen walking up the court and brings little to the table offensively. Let the re-building in Toronto begin.

I am reading the annual report from United Technologies - which owns, amongst other things, a helicopter company. To quote:
On the commercial side, Sikorsky finished the year with a backlog of nearly $3 billion — its largest ever — driven by growing demand for offshore transportation in the oil and gas industry.
I am not sure how good that backlog is.
Disclosure: no positions. Primarily reading because we have a disclosed position in a jet engine company (Rolls Royce) and like the follow the competition (Pratt and Whitney).
PS. I have received at least half a dozen emails about the hostage drama in Sydney. It is 5km away and I know no more than you can find out from internet. We can see the city from our office though and the number of helicopters swarming around has reduced.

Town sending letter for precursory investigation
Council hears town's and new petition's concerns
Tuesday, May 08, 2012 06:00 am
A special town council meeting was called on April 30 to address the new petition of inquiry circulating in the community, a meeting that became very heated as council opened the floor for public comments and questions.
Council wanted to address residents� concerns and learn what they wanted to know or needed clarification on in regards to the Shantz Crossing Business Park project, the 2012 budget, and other information that some wanted addressed.
The decision to move forward with Shantz was made after a five-to-two vote at the April 24 regular council meeting, much to the dissatisfaction of many residents including Rick Lavigne, who had spearheaded the new petition to request municipal affairs do an investigation of the town and administration.
Council seemed fine with this new petition, however, even going as far as to motion to send a letter to municipal affairs to have a precursory investigation done.
�We don�t have a problem bringing in an auditor to look over things as well,� said Mayor Brian Wittal at the meeting.
Tempers began to flare between residents and council as the floor continued to voice concerns about the lack of roadwork being done, the risk of Shantz and concern over its debt, and other off-topic issues in the community. One resident flat-out told council that they were �P.O�d� about the fact that their taxes had gone up every single year since they had moved to Didsbury.
�There are five people on council who the town are not happy with,� said resident Ric Wohlgmuth. �I don�t think you voted with conscience.�
�We thank everybody for their openness and willingness to share their views,� said Coun. Lavar Adams. �We debate all motions with the best information we have available to us. How do we know what the voice of the town is if we don�t hear from individuals like you? We all have a passion to watch the town grow and be all it can be.�
Discussion between residents and councillors settled to talk about ways council could simplify information about Shantz, the town debt levels and servicing and budget figures to help keep correct information openly circulating to any and all residents who wanted to learn it.
While all this information is available on the town website, some individuals voiced that there was still confusion when reviewing the complicated accounting figures.
�As we go down the road, we will give updates, but for now it�s public information that can be shared with anybody, and if there is a group who would like a formal presentation, we can do that,� said Wittal after the meeting.
�We assume the information is out� Until just a few weeks ago there was no concern around the debt levels and debt servicing, and people question it, and some don�t understand.�
�Accounting is complicated,� added Wittal. �We could put it to basic math, chequebook-style, but that would take a lot of time, and before, if people weren�t asking [for that], why do it? We need clarification on what we need to clarify, and we got that last night.�
Council will be meeting for a retreat this fall to discuss plans moving forward into 2013, outlining priorities and budget strategies for the new year.
�This fall, prior to the retreat, we want to try to get residents to give feedback at that time so we can try to build the budget around that, and see how it works,� said Wittal.
�We try to get more people engaged, and would love to see more engagement like this. The more voices that we hear, the easier it is for us to make decisions. The more people we hear from, it helps council know we are making a decision based on what residents are saying.�
However, in the case of Shantz, which has been years in the making and moving forward, resident feedback may have come a bit too late.
While a petition on appealing the directional signage the town had wanted to start was accepted by the town and, after being scrutinized for legitimacy of signatures but still taken into consideration by council to postpone the project, holding off on Shantz is not a move Wittal sees as beneficial, and he has said so at past meetings.
�Once the wheels get rolling on some things, you can�t stop, and that makes people frustrated, but I appreciate and understand that,� said Wittal.

U.S. Marine Joshua Boston Tells CNN's Piers Morgan on Gun Control Push: "We Can't Give Up our Rights because We are Afraid" – Video 1/8/13
Here is video of U.S. Marine Joshua Boston on with Piers Morgan last night to talk about Democrat Sen. Diane Feinstein's anti-2nd Amendment legislation.
Boston defended the 2nd Amendment Rights of American Citizens. He made the point that disarming law-abiding Americans is not going to prevent criminals from attacking innocent people. Rather, it will only make citizens defenseless in the face of those attacks.
