Unlisted number fee a 'privacy penalty'
Posted: Tuesday, April 19 2011 at 06:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan
Who says people won't pay to protect their privacy? Mark Swartz is one of millions of U.S. consumers who pay dearly every month to keep personal information out of the hands of marketers. In fact, Swartz figures he's paid well over $1,000 through the years for the simplest of privacy protections -- an unlisted home telephone number.
The $4.95-a-month fee that Swartz pays is a relic from times of the AT&T monopoly, when consumers leased everything from the phone company, including handsets. But Swartz, who lives near Boston and has had the same phone number since the 1980s, is wondering what he's getting for $60 every year.
"Despite privacy laws and the fact that there is no ongoing expense to Verizon to not publish my number -- it's programmed into their system just once -- I have to pay them to not divulge my number," he said. "Absolutely ridiculous."
It's also of questionable value. In the age of Google, paid search services like Spokeo and the Do Not Call list, it's debatable how effective unlisted numbers are.

Just how creepy is 'Creepy'? A test-drive
Posted: Friday, April 15 2011 at 06:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan
Kelly Collis feels safe sharing her location information.
You probably know that some Internet and cell phone applications like Foursquare or Twitter can broadcast your location to the world. And you might know that Web sites with names like PleaseRobMe and ICanStalkYou have been created with shock value in mind to call attention to the potential consequences of broadcasting such information. But those sites picked on random individuals and exposed their whereabouts one at a time.
A new software tool created by Greek programmer Yiannis Kakavas goes much farther in the shock category. Called "Creepy," Kakavas' tool makes it easy to gather all the location-based digital breadcrumbs that people leave online and plot them on a map. The map and associated time stamps make it easy to discern their routines -- "It looks like Bob goes to this coffee shop every Friday morning around 10:30" -- a tool of incalculable use to a would-be stalker. For Web users who loyally leave breadcrumbs everywhere ("Now at Whiskey Bar!" "Now at Park Diner," "Finally home") it's possible to recreate much of their daily lives using Creepy.
What's more, unlike ICanStalkYou, users can search for any Foursquare, Twitter or Flickr user they want. Kakavas tool also adds a handy handle-search tool, in case you only know your stalking subject by their real name.
When I reached Kakavas in Germany, where he is finishing his dissertation on computer security, he took pains to make clear he wasn't trying to make life easier for stalkers.

Study: Banks hiding fee info, skirting law
Posted: Tuesday, April 12 2011 at 04:50 pm CT by Bob Sullivan
There's only one way to get the best price on a service: Shop around. And there's only one way to shop around: Compare prices. But banking consumers who try to engage in this pillar of free market economic activity often simply can't, according to a study released Tuesday by a consumer group.
At nearly one in four banks, consumers can't learn the price of doing business because fee schedules are unavailable before they sign up, according to the Public Interest Research Group (PIRG), which conducted the study. Those banks are breaking the Truth in Savings Act, which requires such up-front fee disclosures, it said.
The results are all the more concerning because they mirror results from a similar study conducted by Congress' Government Accountability Office three year ago, which spurred government regulators to reiterate banks' obligation to offer fee disclosures in 2010.

5 Traps: How do I use public Wi-Fi safely?
Posted: Tuesday, April 12 2011 at 06:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan
You've heard it for years: Using free coffee shop Wi-Fi isn't safe. But then, you've done it anyway, viewing critical work documents or doing online banking. So let's talk turkey. To borrow from a modern parental dilemma, I really don't want you doing that, but if you do, you should be taking the proper precautions. This edition of Five Red Tape Traps will help you do that.
Finding a free Wi-Fi hotspot is like finding an oasis in the data desert. You might be wandering around helplessly detached with your laptop, iPod Touch or iPad when you come upon a coffee shop or airport lounge that promises to quench your thirst for e-mail. At moments like that, most consumers have one thing on their minds: connecting as quickly as possible.
Somewhere along the line, you've probably heard that recklessly using Wi-Fi can be dangerous. Perhaps you've even heard that the danger level recently increased with the release of a new tool named Firesheep, which makes snooping on unsecure coffee shop networks easy for anyone with a Web browser. There are a lot of fish in that sea: The Wi-Fi Alliance says there are now 92,000 hot spots in the U.S., and every one of them needs to be used with care.
The problem is simple: When you're using Wi-Fi, you're sending data through the air that gets picked up by a radio antenna on a router. Of course, anyone else with an antenna can receive the signal, too. If the data are scrambled, no big deal. But scrambling involves settings that could make life harder for customers, and there isn't a coffee shop in the world that wants to provide IT support to latte drinkers. Hence most free hotspots provide little or no security. It falls to the latte drinker to surf safely.
Sadly, staying truly safe means heeding some rather brutal advice.
"I just tell people not to do anything at a coffee shop that they wouldn't write on the back of a postcard," said Kelly Davis-Felner, marketing director for The Wi-Fi Alliance, a global trade group that certifies Wi-Fi devices. She says the alliance is working on new technologies that will automatically make free Wi-Fi safer, but for now, you should pay heed to these five traps and their antidotes.
1.) It's never happened to me. This is probably the biggest problem facing improved Wi-Fi security. Sure, you start out only reading the NYTimes.com website at coffee shops, but that's just the gateway site. One day, reading the business section, you see a stock you hold in your retirement account took a hit. You can't resist visiting your broker's account. Then you are tempted to go to your online bank to increase your monthly contributions. And nothing bad happens, so what's the problem?
"There's this great disconnect that even if someone took advantage of you and stole your data, you might not be aware of it," Marian Merritt, Internet safety advocate at Symantec Corp. "Someone could be using Firesheep against you, and you wouldn't know it." This same phenomenon happens in credit card theft: When a criminal buys something with your credit card, you almost never know where the account number was originally stolen.
As a result, it's easy to get complacent with Wi-Fi, and get lured into doing riskier things. Here's the easiest, most basic rule of thumb everyone should follow: Do only casual Web browsing when in that coffee shop, ideally at websites where your password is already stored so it needn't be typed. Remember, half of you use that DailyNews.com password at your online banking website, too, so even a seemingly harmless visit to your town's obituaries could expose your money to a hacker.
2.) Shoulder surfing. Tech writers love using non-words like VPN in a sentence, but often the biggest risk comes from the simplest attack. You probably glance over your shoulder before you enter your PIN code at an ATM. You should bring some of that healthy paranoia to coffee shops, too. Someone could easily look over your shoulder and spot critical personal information while you sip your warm beverage and stare out the window. One low-tech investment that might be worth your while is a privacy filter for your screen that cuts down severely on the viewing angle.
3.) HTTP vs. HTTPS. Even if you are using a wide-open hotspot, you can still scramble those radio transmissions for safety. Make sure you login to websites like Facebook and Amazon only when there's that familiar "https" prefix in the address where your browser is headed. That means the information you transmit won't be readable by someone who plucks it out of the air. In fact, it will be encrypted at every step between your computer and the website's servers.
Note, however, that you might find yourself switching between https and https as you surf, particularly if you click on outside links. That means before you type something critical, like a login or a credit card, you should check again that your browser is pointed at an https site.
Generally, Web mail programs allow safe https logins, but some switch back and forth depending on how you are using the site. One tip: In Gmail, visit settings and click "always use https."
4.) Avoid "Free Public Wi-Fi." Often, when you are looking for a hotspot, your helpful computer will indicate there are five or six networks nearby. Don't pick the first one, or even the one with the strongest signal. Pick the one that belongs to the establishment you are visiting. Anything else could be a trap. You should double-check the name of the network with the store, and stores should place the name prominently behind the register. Connecting to random accounts -- and having your computer connect automatically to networks with names like "linksys" -- sets you up for what's called an "evil twin" attack. (No, this is not a reference to a book of the same name). Criminals can set up rogue access points with attractive-sounding names, connect to your computer and then honor most Web browsing requests -- all the while logging your activity. The only way to avoid this is to manually connect to networks you know are provided by reputable firms.
5) VPN. Finally, the advice given by professionals to professionals is to use virtual private network tools -- VPNs -- when connecting to the Internet through public wireless networks. VPNs offer an encryption-lined tunnel between your machine and a server somewhere else on the Internet which keeps your data free from prying eyes along that pathway. Firesheep is powerless against VPNs.
The problem is VPNs require two pieces, and most consumers can't be bothered with setting up both. A VPN client must be installed on the coffee drinkers' computer, and a VPN server must be set up elsewhere to accept the connection. People who work at security-conscious companies often have these installed for them. It's possible to use your home computer as a VPN server, which would mean you'd essentially be surfing the Web from that machine when you were in your local coffee shop. But that's a bridge too far for most consumers.
(Here's a great article with more on setting up VPNs)
Several commercial companies have stepped up to fill this gap. HotSpotVPN.com, for example, offers tunneling service for under $10 per month. HotSpotShield uses a different model, providing free tunnel service in exchange for serving advertisements to users.
But most average surfers won't want the ads or the subscription because they don't realize what's at stake, said Merritt, the Symantec safety advocate. She thinks hotspot providers should shoulder a little more responsibility.
"They should recommend that consumers look into using VPNs, perhaps right on their login pages," said Merritt. "They should provide information that consumers don't even know to ask about .... If consumers had greater awareness, they would be more concerned."
"Five Red Tape Traps" is an occasional series which will focus on answering the most important questions consumer face in the 21st Century economy. Previously:

Lawsuit: Credit score sites mislead consumers
Posted: Friday, April 8 2011 at 05:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan
Confused about your credit score and where to get it? That's intentional, according to a new lawsuit filed in a California federal court.
Many consumers who think they are buying a peek at their credit scores are being defrauded, according to a lawsuit against credit bureau giant Experian. The case, which seeks class action status, claims that Experian is intentionally confusing customers, engaging in false advertising and not giving consumers what they pay for when they sign up for services at the firm's popular FreeCreditReport.com and FreeCreditScore.com Web sites.
"It's a classic consumer fraud case," said David Woodward, one of the lawyers who filed the case. "The law is designed to prohibit exactly this kind of egregious advertising practice. ... The defendant is profiting from deception."

Experian glitch temporarily sinks credit scores
Posted: Wednesday, April 6 2011 at 11:24 am CT by Bob Sullivan
Customers received this alarming message.
A credit reporting glitch has temporarily torpedoed an undisclosed number of consumers' credit scores, msnbc.com has learned. The error came to light after many consumers who pay for credit monitoring services received alerts about the drop.
Credit bureau Experian erroneously reported HSBC credit card customers as having balances exceeding their credit limits, causing scores to plummet. One consumer said his score dropped 60 points.
Several consumers claim the glitch dropped the last two digits of the HSBC cardholders' credit limits. For example, a consumer with a $1,500 credit limit suddenly was reported as having a $15 limit -- which in turn caused the consumer to have a balance far larger than the limit. That in turn spiked the consumer's so-called credit utilization, which has a big impact on scores.

What is Epsilon, and why did it have your e-mail?
Posted: Tuesday, April 5 2011 at 05:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan
CLICK TO PLAY VIDEO: On MSNBC cable discussing the data leak.
Before this weekend, you'd probably never heard of Epsilon Data Management. But the Texas-based marketing firm had almost certainly heard of you.
In fact, the company behind the high-profile leak of data belonging to Best Buy, Target, The College Board, Walgreens and other big-name firms probably has an intimate relationship with you. It says it holds information on 250 million worldwide consumers, and its company credo is to offer a "complete 360 degree view" of customers. Getting a 360-degree of Epsilon is a bit harder.
"People are saying, 'Who is this company and why should they have my personal information?'" said Larry Ponemon, a privacy consultant who runs The Ponemon Institute.
They also might wonder why at least one company executive thinks Americans are overly prone to "indignation" about unwanted e-mails.

Report: Child ID theft on the rise
Posted: Friday, April 1 2011 at 03:53 am CT by Bob Sullivan
Child ID theft, among the more tragic and vexing 21st Century crimes, is much more common than previously thought, suggests a report being published Friday by a Carnegie Mellon University fellow.
Data examined by Richard Power, a distinguished fellow at the school's CyLab research center, offers hints that identity thieves are specially targeting children when picking victims.
"They make perfect targets because they have no records and don't discover the crime for years," he said.
Using data supplied by identity monitoring company Debix, Power examined 40,000 children's profiles and found more than 10 percent had identities that were tainted in some way.
"These were 4,000 kids in there with gun licenses, mortgages, car loans and driver's licenses. That's crazy," Power said.

New $5 ATM fee just the latest checking trap
Posted: Tuesday, March 29 2011 at 07:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan
"Total Checking." "Value Checking." "MyAccess Checking." What do they all have in common? The word "free" is missing from the name.
You are likely painfully aware that big banks like Chase, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America have ended no-strings-attached free checking accounts. But if you had any questions about how restrictive -- or expensive -- those strings can be, consider Chase bank. Scarcely two years ago, we marveled at banks' efforts to inch fees up to $3 per withdrawal. Chase bank is now test-piloting $5-per-withdrawal fees for non-customers in Illinois. That's in addition to fees the consumers' bank charges. Soon it may cost $10 to grab $20 in a pinch.
Once upon a time, consumers could expect to earn money by leaving their cash sitting in a bank. Today, consumers must worry about their bank slowly bleeding money out of the account. The change is happening swiftly. Chase says it's converted around 8 million free accounts -- many former customers of Washington Mutual -- into "follow-our-rules-or-pay-up-to-$144-annually" accounts.

Another nail in the coffin of price tags
Posted: Friday, March 25 2011 at 06:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan
While price tags are showing their age, Esther Shapiro sure isn't. The 93-year-old consumer advocate still visits grocery stores in Detroit to make sure they are pricing items accurately. But an important arrow in her quiver is about to disappear. The Michigan Legislature voted to kill the state's grocery store price tag law last week, after Michigan's Gov. Rick Snyder attacked it in annual his State of the State address. That means in all likelihood the little stickers will soon disappear, replaced by shelf tags.
While a few other states still have mandatory price tag laws, Michigan's was by far the most consumer-friendly. The Michigan Retailers Association is rejoicing, but Shapiro sees the reversal as a sad event for consumer rights.
"For many people, (the price tag law) is the only interaction they ever have with consumer protection law," said Shapiro, who once headed Detroit's Consumer Affairs office. She still lives in downtown Detroit, and still complains loudly when she's overcharged at her local grocery store. "A very basic thing I always come back to is consumers' right to know. Times are getting tighter, the value of peoples' income is shrinking, and now they will be even more confused about what things cost."

Symptoms of low sodium levels in the body include abdominal pain or cramping, bloating, body aches, mood changes, dizziness and headaches. Additional symptoms are difficulty with memory or thinking, impaired balance, lethargy, muscle spasms and nausea. The medical term for this condition is hyponatremia, explains Healthgrades.
Additionally, there are serious symptoms associated with hyponatremia, which may be life threatening. These symptoms include changes in personality or behavior, chest pain or pressure, confusion or a loss of consciousness, and dizziness or vertigo. Muscle twitching or seizures, vomiting, gradual difficulty with walking and talking, memory loss, and weakness in the extremities are other symptoms that may be life threatening. If an individual experiences or observes any of these symptoms, he should seek immediate medical attention by calling 911, directs Healthgrades.
Common causes of hyponatremia include diarrhea, excessive sweating and vomiting. Certain medical conditions, such as adrenal gland disease, burns, scarring of the liver, dehydration and extreme exercise, may also cause hyponatremia, according to Healthgrades. Risk factors that are associated with the development of hyponatremia include aging, hot climate, kidney disease, liver failure and side effects from medications. Staying properly hydrated and drinking liquids that contain electrolytes are ways to lower the risk for low blood sodium.

At this juncture, I have made my final batch of Pale Ale that will be entered into the Yakima Fresh Hop Ale Festival. My final recipe was as follows:
10 Gallon Batch Size
16 lb 2-Row Pale Malt
3 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt 20L
2 lb Wheat Malt
16 oz Corn Flakes
1 lb Cascade Wet Hops added to the mash
3 lb Cascade Wet Hops last 15 min of boil
WLP 051 California Ale V Yeast
This recipe was brewed by heating 5 gallons of water up to 172 F and then adding it to the mash tun and adding the grains with 1 pound of Cascade Hops mixed into them. This method of hopping is called "first wort hopping" and gives the beer a smoother hop flavor and aroma than just adding the hops to the boil. Often times the hop flavor and aroma can come across as being harsh when all of the hops are added to the boil. Some people unfamiliar with first wort hopping think that the hops would have the same bittering effect on the wort as adding the hops at the beginning of the boil. However, chemically the flavor and aroma of the hop oils and lupulins become preserved by the chemical reactions that convert the grains starches into sugars (diastic power).
I allowed the mash to sit for 1 hour at 153 F and then drained it to the boil kettles. Then I heated the wort up and boiled it for 45 minutes. Next I added the 3 lbs of hops and boild them along with 2 teaspoons of Irish Moss for another 15 minutes. Then I cooled the wort with an immersion wort chiller and siphoned the wort in to the fermenting buckets. Finally, I aerated the wort by splashing it between two buckets and added the yeast.
I allowed the wort to sit in my basement at about 72 F for two weeks and then I bottled half of it and kegged the other half. I had to use three 12 oz bottles with no identifying marks and no labels in order to submit the beer into the Fresh Hop Ale Festival. Since they couldn't have any identifying marks on them my sam adams and new belgium bottles that didn't have any labels on them were out of the question and since I am a little lazy when it comes to taking labels off of bottles I didn't have any others without labels. So, I had to de label three of my Big Sky Brewing Co. bottles.
Now I am off to Yakima to submit my beer. I have to give a very special thanks to the folks at the Yakima Hop Union. They were very nice and gave me a 10 pound box of wet hops for FREE. I am going to give them a 22oz bottle of Huckleberry Ale and a 22 oz bottle of White Coffee Ale along with a 6-pack of the IPA that I just gave you the recipe for. I know it's not much, but at least it is something to show my thanks to them.
Of course, I had to do a self-evaluation of the beer and my sister also has tasted this awsome IPA. So, I thought I would give you my opinion of the beer. It has a very floral hop flavor throughout with a hint of malt flavor in the front. The nose is very pleasant and marked mainly with toasted malt and a slight hop aroma, but not strong as you would expect. My sister thought the aroma was very pleasant and the flavor had a nice floral quality. Although she said she could smell more hop than what I experienced.
Wish me luck with the Fresh Hop Ale Festival Entry… Hopefully I will come back on Sunday and be able to tell you I came in 1st.

It's Saturday morning; the sun welcomes the new day as it peeks through your bedroom blinds. Your feet hit the floor: the birds sing their spring-time song. You imagine them perched on the tree branches outside. The anticipation builds as the new season is here. Spring has officially sprung.
After a long winter, you're ready to take in the warm sun; the cool breeze, and all the smells of spring. Today's mission: mow. It's been six months since its last manicure. You took all the precautions last fall. This year your lawn will be the best in the neighborhood.
With one hand you pull the start lever; the other you grip the chord. First pull… nothing. The same with the second, third, and fourth. You check the gas tank. It's full. Next you check the oil and spark plug. Everything is topped off and connected so what can be wrong?
According to Dan Brekke, owner of Iron-Gate Self Storage, the number one tip for storing your lawnmower is by removing all the gas before putting it away for the season. He stated, "It's best to remove all the fuel from the tank and carburetor before storing in a storage unit. Most units are not climate controlled. Environmental changes can cause corrosion and buildup in critical engine parts. If you are not able to remove the fuel, then adding a fuel additive is the next best option."
To ensure you have a long healthy relationship with your mower, here are six tips for winter storage:
1. Remove Gas from Tank
After about 60 days, fuel can become stale creating gummy deposits to build up inside your engine. Once this corrosion occurs your options are to replace the engine or by a new mower. Neither of which are ideal choices.
The best way to remove gas is to siphon it out of the tank and back into a gas can.
2. Removing Gas from Carburetor
Once the gas is removed from the tank, start the engine until the carburetor runs dry. (The engine will sputter and stop.) This ensures all fuel is out of the mower. A dry carburetor helps prevent corrosion over the storage months.
3. Replace and Disconnect Spark Plug
Next to the fuel, the spark plug plays a major role in the starting of your mower. Faulty spark plugs prevent the fuel from igniting (sparking). With no spark there is no power. Again, corrosion can prevent your mower from starting.
4. Changing Oil
The acids and moisture in old oil can cause damage to engine parts. The key is to run the engine before removing the oil. This heats it allowing more of the contaminated oil to be available for removal.
5. Clean the Grass Buildup Under the Mower
In order for your mower to run properly it has to move freely. When grass buildup becomes excessive, it prevents the blade from spinning. A free spinning blade is crucial during starting. If the blade is slowed the engine will not start. Removing excess grass buildup before storage means you will not have to worry about it in the spring.
6. Clean or Replace Air Filter
There are two types of filters used in mowers today; paper and foam. If your mower uses a paper filter, then replacing it is your best option. Your mower's engine needs to breathe just like you do. A clean air filter allows fresh air into the engine keeping it running at top speed.
If your mower uses a foam filter, you can clean it before storage with soap and water. After it's clean, soak it in oil. Then squeeze excess oil and replace the filter into the engine.
As Dan said, "The best option is to keep all fuel out of a storage unit. Any flammable solution causes excess risk and worry, which no one wants."

The rolling blackouts are over -- for now -- as The Electric Reliability Council of Texas says there is now enough power supply to meet demand in the state. But for at least seven hours Wednesday that wasn't the case.So to keep the entire system from failing, hundreds of thousands of people were put in the dark at a time. In many cases, again and again. ERCOT says there was no other choice. There was an increased demand to heat Texas homes, but according to the lieutenant governor it wasn't demand that shut the system, but frozen pipes at power plants causing the shutdown and forcing Texans to sit in the dark for an hour at a time -- sometimes on and off all day. Schools in area school districts were included in the power outage earlier Wednesday. CenterPoint is asking everyone to turn down your heaters to 68 degrees or lower, limit use of appliances to those needed most, try to limit opening and closing refrigerators, freezers and doors.
On Wednesday morning, ERCOT told utilities state-wide to begin rotating outages to compensate for a generation shortage due to numerous plant trips that occurred because of the extreme weather. At 1pm, ERCOT cancelled their directive to CenterPoint Energy to curtail delivery of power in its greater Houston service territory.
According to ERCOT, rotating outages are controlled, temporary interruptions of electric service, typically lasting 10-45 minutes per neighborhood. The locations and durations are determined by the local utilities. Critical need customers, such as hospitals and nursing homes, are generally not included.CenterPoint Energy also is installing new smartmeters at homes in the greater Houston area to pinpoint homes where medical devices are depended on and avoid cutting power to homes of people in life-and-death situations. On Wednesday afternoon, ERCOT urged all consumers who can reduce their energy consumption to do so at this time. They recommended cutting usage, including these steps:
- Limit electricity usage to only that consumption which is absolutely necessary. Turn off all unnecessary lights, appliances, and electronic equipment.
- Businesses should minimize the use of electric lighting and electricity-consuming equipment as much as possible.
- Large consumers of electricity should consider shutting down or reducing non-essential production processes.
According to ERCOT, some customers may experience longer outages if power surges cause equipment failure during the restoration process. Customers can minimize power surges by turning off appliances, lights and other equipment, except for one task light to determine when power has been restored.
Centerpoint Energy notified customers via email that they would implement 15-30 minute systematic outages.
The ERCOT region includes Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi, Abilene and the Rio Grande Valley. It does not include the El Paso area, the Texas Panhandle, Northeast Texas (Longview, Marshall and Texarkana), and Southeast Texas (Beaumont, Port Arthur, and the Woodlands).

Staying fit and living a healthy live may be a little difficult at times, but it's certainly not impossible. To the contrary, it is possible to change your bad habits and unhealthy ways, providing you have some self discipline and providing you're willing to commit yourself.
In this article we'll take a brief look at some of the most important factors regarding a healthier, fitter you.
Commitment is without a doubt essential if you want to make the necessary changes in order to live a healthier life, particularly if you also need to get rid of any bad habits. In other words, you really need to have a sense of urgency or else you'll probably give up at some point along the way. You'd be surprised at just how many people start eating a healthy balanced diet and begin with an exercise program, only to revert back to their old ways after a month or two.
Whatever you do, you need to avoid falling into this trap where you start and stop continuously, because not only will you be wasting your own time and effort, but you'll also become less motivated each time it happens. In fact, don't even start until you're absolutely sure that it's something you desperately want, because at least then you'll probably have enough will power to make it happen.
Get Support
Let's face it; trying to kick a bad habit can be one of the most difficult things in the world, so you should essentially try and make it as easy as possible to give yourself the best chance of succeeding. For this reason, it helps if you have the support of your friends and family. In fact, that's why most programs which are designed to help people give up drinking usually revolve around some kind of support system where people are able to discuss their experiences as well as any progress they're making.
Saying No to Temptation
Being able to avoid temptations takes a considerable amount of will power, and if you don't have enough will power you'll be unable to remain in control of your circumstances. Contrary to what you may believe, it's not always easy to avoid temptations, and you'll probably come face to face with them every day of your life. The secret however, is for you to be strong enough to say no, because you can be rest assured that the minute you give in once you'll probably continue doing so, and before you know it, you'll be back to your old ways.
The best way for you to achieve this is for you to try and avoid temptations wherever possible. For example, if some of your friends tend to eat plenty of fast foods, or they drink and smoke, then you'd be better off spending as little time with them as possible, at least for the time being. You should even try to avoid going to certain places that you know will tempt you into doing something you no longer wish to do.
Regular Reminders
If you're continuously being reminded about your goals and ambitions then you'll have far more chance of being able to stay on the right path. Ideally, not only should you constantly the reminding yourself, but you should also try to choose someone that you can trust and depend on, and then ask them to point out to you whenever you start to stray. Even though you may be totally committed, it's easy to start backsliding without even being aware of it, and that is why it helps to have someone else looking out for you as well.

Will Young wants classical album
Will Young wants classical album
Will Young wants to make a classical album.
The 'Come On' hitmaker is looking forward to "challenging" himself by taking his career in a different musical direction with his next record.
He said: "I'm not very good at sticking with one thing and now I've done the challenge of an electronic album and now I want to do a classical album.
"It's all about the singing and the challenge to sing in counter-tenor, which is really hard. It's not that 'Popstar to Operastar' kind of thing, it'll be a different vibe."
Will explored a new musical direction on his most recent album, 'Echoes', and says creating a more electronic and dance music record was something he had wanted to do for a long time.
He explained: "I was working with Groove Armada years ago on songs that were never fitting on any of my records, because they were their own records really. Then I kept on moaning to friends and boyfriends going, 'I just want to do this kind of record' and the were like, 'Well just f***ing do it then' so I did it."
While he is happy with the album, the 'Jealousy' singer initially had no idea if his fans would like it.
He added: "One makes records sort of in naivety and if it does well, when it goes to number one and it's gone platinum and everything, you think, 'Thank god that's gone well, what was I thinking?'
"I don't think you should be thinking of people, the audience, too much because otherwise you don't do something honest."

Goodbye to an LA Restaurant Business Legend
Once about every three or four weeks for the past 15 or 20 years, I'd pick up the phone and hear an unmistakable voice, somehow raspy but luminous at the same time, saying "Colman, it's Joan. Just checking in." That was Joan Luther (below right, with her Scottie, Darren), the legendary LA publicist and all-around restaurant-lover — a woman I'd known so long that I can't begin to remember the first time I met her, except that it must have been at one of the big Hollywood parties my parents used to give back in the 1950s.
A native of Los Angeles, with some family connection to one of the old Southern California Spanish land grant families, Joan worked in the publicity and public relations business almost from the day she graduated from USC, feeding tips to fabled Hollywood gossip columnist Hedda Hopper, representing the iconic Brown Derby (where the Cobb salad was invented), handling press relations for the Hollywood Park and Santa Anita racetracks back in the days when they drew a steady clientele of movie stars and high society high-rollers.
Restaurants were her favorite clients, and most of the work she did in her long career was on their behalf. She represented scores and scores of the town's most famous chefs over her long career, and an equal number of the kinds of restaurants where you'd never know the chef's name. It was Luther who found Michel Richard a location for his first establishment, a modest pastry shop and café; she helped a young German chef named Joachim Splichal (now head of the Patina Restaurant Group) move from the private club where he'd been cooking into a restaurant of his own; she also publicized a couple of attorneys who had a crazy idea for something called California Pizza Kitchen. Her company, Joan Luther & Associates (which was a lot of Joan Luther and very few associates), which she formed in 1974, also beat the drums for the Bistro Garden, The Grill on the Alley, Kate Mantalini, Providence, Sona, Hatfield's, Mastro, Ago, Bastide, and on and on (it would probably take less space to name the LA restaurants that she didn't represent at one point or another) — with clients like the Beverly Hills Hotel and the Rodeo Drive merchants' association along the way.
She probably met my parents at the track, or maybe at the Derby, and I suspect they must have been nice to her when she was just starting out, because when she and I reconnected in the 1980s, after I'd started writing about restaurants in Southern California, she was always particularly nice to me — not p.r.-person, you're-a-writer-and-I-want-something-from-you nice, but genuinely kind and generous, always asking about my family, inviting me to important events, tipping me off to new places that might not even have been her clients.
I frankly never quite knew what restaurants she was or wasn't representing, in fact, because when she found a good one, one run by worthwhile people, with good food and some imagination, she'd rave about it whether she represented it or not. She loved the world of chefs and restaurateurs, thrived on their abilities and pecadillos. She was a consummate connector, ceaselessly networking even before that word had been invented.
Funnily enough, however much she loved the industry, I could never quite figure out whether she really enjoyed food or not. She didn't eat lunch, period, but would invite you to join her at noontime and then sit there perfectly happy ingesting nothing more than cup after cup of coffee. She did eat dinner, but for many years it was always steak; just steak, and never mind the sides. Her preferences evolved over time, but the last few times I dined with her, that steak was a big ribeye, and I mean a really big one, the kind some places give you for free if you can finish it. She'd polish off every scrap.
For all that, she was a tiny person, so thin in later years that she looked like she'd have to hold onto something if a strong wind came up. Her skin was leather-bronze, the result of decades spent on the tennis courts of Beverly Hills; she'd always been athletic, and in fact met her amiable husband, Bill Luther, playing beach volleyball. This was around the time she first started working in the publicity business, and, unfashionably for LA, they stayed happily and loyally together from that time forward — and his more catholic tastes in food helped her assess countless eating places.
Joan's hair, the writer Dave Gardetta once maintained when he profiled her for Los Angeles magazine, looked "like Kansas wheat pressed down by an impending cold front." But even in her late 70s and early 80s, she was a bundle of energy, always bright-eyed and enthusiastic, always bursting with some new piece of news or rumor. ("I've heard that Condé Nast is going to close down Gourmet," she told me one day, a couple of months before it happened; "Never in a million years," I perceptively replied.)
In 1994, LA's now-defunct Buzz magazine named her one of the 100 Coolest People in Los Angeles, noting that "Younger, hipper competitors come and go, but Joan remains Joan: raspy voiced, unfashionably tan, and full of local lore…" They got that right. She was one of a kind.
Joan died at home in Beverly Hills on June 6th, after a series of strokes, at the age of 83.

Amazon has just released a new feature to assist sellers with processing customer returns. Previously, sellers were limited to the default number generated by Amazon when authorizing a return request. Now sellers can use a custom return number.
This new feature is in response to custom return numbers being one of the most requested features among high volume sellers.
Custom return numbers enable sellers to integrate their existing Customer Relation Management (CRM) systems with Amazon's returns system, creating a more seamless return process. During the return authorization process, sellers can now use either the Amazon return number or a custom number.
The custom number now appears on both the buyer's return authorization and the return mailing label.

Snoop Dogg, Ty Dolla Sign and Migos are three of the rap artists that will perform at the Hard Summer Music Festival in August 2017. Other rap and R&B artists slated to perform include Skepta and Charli XCX. Mike Will Made It will also perform in a triumphant debut festival appearance. I believe this upcoming festival will probably be quite interesting and entertaining. Although some of the rap artists announced for this show will likely disappoint, most of these artists will probably perform in ways that are exciting and amazing. Hip-hop legends Mobb Deep will perform, which will probably make fans of old-school hip-hop fans incredibly gratified. Although the Hard Summer Musical Festival isn't as prominent as a number of other summer festivals, there's no question that this festival has earned its place of prominence in the hip-hop music scene. Notably, this festival brings together hip-hop artists with electronic artists and DJs.
Since the event started in 2007, Hard Summer Music Festival has impressed a wide variety of music critics. Music journalists have reported on the upcoming festival with deep interest. I hope that the organizers of this festival will learn an important lesson from the failure of the Fyre festival, which famously failed due to a lack of preparation and logistical support. Without expert planning, I don't think it is possible for any organization to host a successful music festival. Fortunately, it seems that the organizers of the Hard Summer Music Festival know exactly what they are doing. Although nothing is ever certain in life, I feel confident that people who attend this festival will enjoy themselves thoroughly. The inspiring list of participating artists shows that the festival's organizers truly know what they are doing. This is an excellent time for people to attend festivals like this and thoroughly enjoy their lives.

Panaji: Police personnel armed with alcometers may be posted in close proximity of Goa bars to curb drunken driving, Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar told the assembly Wednesday.
"We may have to post police outside bars... so, if they step out and sit behind the wheel, they can be checked," Parrikar said.
He said he was serious about clamping down on drunken driving, a cause of several accidents in the state.
"If you are drunk, don`t drive. Do anything else. Drunken driving is not permitted," the chief minister said.
He also said liquor-vending outlets which are open till late hours, may also have to arrange for taxis for inebriated patrons. He said the police department was in the process of procuring more alcometers to check drunk drivers.
The traffic police booked and prosecuted nearly 600 drunk drivers in less than a month, a statement issued by the state government`s department of information and publicity said Saturday.
Drunken driving on Independence Day night alone accounted for 26 offences, the statement said.

Join me, dear reader, in yet another inquiry into the role in American political life of William Kristol. My goal is not merely to point out, yet again, his miserable record of prognostication relating to the invasion of Iraq. That's now a given. And in fact, while Kristol has been spectacularly wrong, he has not been the wrongest of the top two Weekly Standard editors. That honor would have to go to executive editor Fred Barnes, who, oblivious to what almost all Americans and (finally) most pundits now know, continues to portray George W. Bush as a heroic figure and successful President.
But while Barnes is a bad joke to most, his colleague Kristol continues to add to his panoply of powerful pundit positions. Not only is he EiC of The Weekly Standard, a semi-regular columnist for the Washington Post, a Fox News analyst and a frequent face on Jon Stewart's The Daily Show; he is also a regular columnist for Time. By any measure he remains, as Bernard-Henri Lévy once deemed him, America's "archetype of the neoconservative." What this means in Kristol's case is that what may look like journalism to the naked eye, and is passed along as such by his editors and producers, is really something quite different.
Make no mistake: Bill Kristol is an extremely smart fellow with good manners and a likable demeanor. Because he is so smart, it's all but impossible to believe that he believes many of the things he says and writes. But if one looks for a consistent pattern to Kristol's perpetual wrongness, it's not hard to discern. For Kristol is less interested in being correct than in advancing his side's interests. He's not a journalist; he's an apparatchik working undercover as a man of the press.
Back in 1993, when Kristol admitted to just being a Republican strategist, he made a name for himself by writing a strategy memo in which he altered the course of American politics by convincing Republicans not to compromise with the Clinton Administration healthcare plan but to destroy it. "Any Republican urge to negotiate a 'least bad' compromise with the Democrats, and thereby gain momentary public credit for helping the president 'do something,'" he wrote, "if it can be beaten, it unravels other things. We have to beat the Clinton plan period, no ifs, ands or buts."
Note that he ignores not only the problems of tens of millions of uninsured Americans but also the merits of the plan itself. The issue was power, pure and simple. If you're seeking to locate the moment in which the era of right-wing Republican recalcitrance–which ended so badly for the party in the 2006 elections–was, um, crystallized, this memo gets my nomination.
OK fine, you say. He was not yet a journalist. And while his Manichean machinations on behalf of the Republican Party may strike one as morally questionable, they cannot be held against his journalism. That may be true, but I would argue that Kristol has changed hats, not stripes. How else to explain that nearly every time a major issue confronts the nation, his analysis is not merely wrong but spectacularly so, and always in the same direction, regardless of evidence or expertise. Observe:

Nigeria's leading fictional story blog - YouTube, Africa, strength of the Naira, Western countries, sun, Southeastern Nigeria,
Working late in the office I found myself blasting music away on YouTube to keep from sleep that was persistently stalking my poor eyes. As I worked hard to finish a proposal, I could not help but pause to appreciate old and new songs from home – Oruka by Sunny Neji, Tell them by Sunny Okosun, Alingo by P Square, Seun Rere by Christy Essien Igbokwe, African Queen and If love is a crime by 2Face, Kukere by Inyanya…just to name a few (you can tell how nostalgic I am from that list). That was when I realized how much I miss home; how much I miss Africa. A few days back I was talking to a dear friend of mine who lives in Lagos over the phone and he was yapping away about his burning desire to leave the country. I tried to tell him to appreciate where he is, but he would not hear of that. He passionately lamented over the nosediving strength of the Naira, the high cost of living, the lack of jobs, the erratic power supply and stark poverty that gets dressed and visits many in their homes with 'a daring and rude boldness'.
We had chatted along the same lines in the past, so I knew that I could not possibly convince him. He has very valid reasons as to why he wants to turn his back on Africa and head westwards. What he does not know though, is what lies in the west relative to what he already has at home. I could not help but think of him as I peck away at my keyboard. Years ago, I would never have made this argument. I was like my friend, bent on making it to the west where I believed that I could be more, do more and achieve more. Indeed, that is true…but at what cost? I have a million things that I would love to share with him, but they would make no sense to him in his present mindset. These are things you must experience personally to appreciate their depth and relevance;
1. There is still a lot of freedom in Africa: Despite the pains and troubles that so terribly rear their ugly head at home, Africa is still a very wonderful place to be. You'd be shocked to hear that people in Africa still enjoy a high degree of freedom. You have a say as to how you want to raise your children in Africa…in the West, you are more likely to be told how to raise your children by the government. This is not an aspersion at the West; I honestly enjoy living here, but I cannot help but observe how heavily regulated the West has become. At the slightest opportunity, the government enacts new laws that introduce another layer of control over what you can or cannot do. For instance, a mere cart that you push around has to have a plate number in some Western countries, and that means paying for it. That is what children play freely with in Africa without government intervention.
2. The sun in Africa is a blessing: I was one of the people that would do anything to escape the scorching heat when I was at home. I hated the heat so much that I would climb atop the deck in our building and sleep there (outside), overnight with my younger brother. At the first sight of winter after I had left home, I begged, prayed and cried for the sun as much as I craved oxygen. That particular winter was so cold that several times, I woke up and parked my bags as I plotted to abandon my study and head back to the sun (Africa) where I had just run away from. At the first sight of spring in April, I looked through my window and saw a tiny ray of sunshine peeking out of the gloomy London weather. Like a man running for dear life, I darted out of my room and sped to the last spot where I had seen the sun. By the time I got there, an Indian friend of mine was standing at that exact spot, happily soaking up the cold sun. "You took my spot!!!" I complained bitterly. "I did not see you when I got here, Victor," she answered with a ravishing smile on her face, and she was right. She was kind enough to swap the spot with me intermittently; we moved with the sun as it shifted from one spot to another. There, I was chasing something that I used to detest terribly – something I was eager to escape for good. Be careful what you wish for.
3. You still have your family around you: I had never gone for a whole year without seeing most of my family – parents, siblings, uncles, aunts and cousins. A month after I left home, I began to find myself battling with depressing thoughts. I wanted to wake up and see my mother's face…exchange jokes with my father or have lunch with most if not all my siblings. At this point, they were several miles away, and each passing day became hell on earth as I wanted to be around them…sit by the fire in the cold harmattan months and roast yam with my father. I could no longer freely do that as often as I used to – as often as my heart desired because I lived abroad.
4. You will cry for African food: The first night I arrived in London, I searched for something to eat. There was a Turkish restaurant across the street from my hostel. I have to warn you, I love food!!! I really do, big time. I walked in there and looked at the menu with no clue what they were selling. In an effort to fill my ever demanding stomach, I asked the waiter for the food that guaranteed the biggest portion on their menu and he recommended something I have never been able to find out what it really was. I ordered two portions for that matter. As I walked away from the restaurant with two heavy bags of food I could hear my stomach singing praise songs in anticipation of a hefty meal. No way!!! That did not happen.
When I reached my room, I unmasked the first bag and descended heavily on it. I could not tell what it tasted like. My mouth rejected it and my stomach began to growl and quiver frenetically. For a new 'arriver', I was not happy to wash twenty five Pounds worth of food down the drains…converting it to Naira did not make me happy at all. And, I was still hungry. One afternoon some years later, a friend of mine from home who lived in Southeast London phoned me. "Can you guess what I am having for lunch?" He asked gleefully. "No," I replied. "Ukwa (breadfruit)," he shouted into the phone. "I wanted to tell you so that when you sleep at night, you will be salivating in your dreams," he added. At this point, I had not seen Ukwa in years how much more eat it. Ukwa is a delicacy in Southeastern Nigeria.
While you can find most African foods in London, Ukwa and some other delicacies are a rare find…if at all you can find it. My friend's mother sent it to him through someone visiting London. I was at work, when my friend told me about the Ukwa. I lived in Central London. It is quite a distance, heading all that way down to the South, so my friend was sure that he would have his left over Ukwa by himself the next day…until I knocked on the door. I could not get the Ukwa out of my mind at work. As soon as I left work, I took the train to South London to get a few spoons of Ukwa. Where there is a will, there is a way.
5. You will change: People respond to nostalgia differently, but the truth is that most of us go through it. Consequently, you see things differently – through a fresh pair of eyes. There were songs I would hardly listen to when I was at home. I thought they were old fashioned…outdated and drab. However, living abroad, I craved them desperately. At home there are places that you hold dear. They represent a time…an era in your life and you could visit those places if you are at home to relive your experiences. When you live abroad, that is not as easy due to the distance. You will find yourself more often on YouTube, playing songs like Oliver De Coque, Morrocco Maduka, Sunny Okosun, Daddy Shokey, Danfo Driver, Mr. Lecturer, African China, Styl Plus and many more. In the absence of a trip to those symbolic places in your life, you latch onto the songs that represent a certain era. They become your medium to connect with places, people and times that you hold very close to your heart. You may find a few specks of tears crashing through the gates of your eyes sometimes, as you walk through that era via songs that bring back deep and special memories.
6. You don't need permission to visit people: If you visit London or New York, and you find yourself on the train, you will notice how people don't look each other in the eye. In fact, thy make decisive efforts to avoid one another. You could live next door to someone for years…many years and never say more than "hello" to them and vice versa. Some Africans become depressed about this when they move over, given the connected nature of life in Africa. People are so busy in the West that if you wanted to visit friends and relatives, you have to make an appointment most of the time, if not all the time. People are everywhere, yet they are heavily isolated from one another. Last time I was home, on the plane in Port Harcourt, the person seated beside me was quick to start a discussion, and before I knew it, everyone around was happily engaged…and we did not know one another. Isn't that beautiful? That is far less common here. In Africa, when you think of people, you could head over to see them; no appointments made and they don't feel troubled by you. Little 'luxuries' like that are things you will miss so badly abroad that you almost begin to choke amid an abundance of air.
It is still a wonderful place out here once you build a network of friends and family. In the absence of that, many pack their bags and head back home. Overall, if you have the opportunity to travel abroad, take it if it is what you desire like I did. However, do know that it is different from home. Nothing will prepare you for that difference until you are immersed in it. If you find yourself at home in Africa, as bad as it can be sometimes, sit back and enjoy what you have…it is not that bad. There is corruption in the west too – police brutality, crime, rising taxes, and rising cost of living. While we strive for meaningful change in Africa, let's celebrate what we have on our continent for now. Home sweet home…there is no place like home. I am feverishly counting down to my next trip home.

Since I pulled one card out of this case of Draft that could very well end up paying for the whole case, I can focus on having Upper Deck send me a replacement for the Michael Johnson autographed card that will end up staying in my collection. I'm having a little bit of difficulty figuring out who I should ask for though.
The first part of the equation is trying to put a price tag on the Michael Johnson card that this redemption is for. This doesn't even have to be a real world price since I would assume that to determine value, Upper Deck would have to go by Beckett's prices.
Michael Johnson is one of the most famous modern Olympic athletes there is. He's won four Olympic medals and it didn't hurt that his best performance in an Olympics was here on American soil when he became the only male athlete to win both the 200 m and 400 m events at the same Olympics. His record in the 200 m that he set at those Olympics stood for over 12 years.
I saw a Michael Johnson autograph that sold on eBay which sold for $50. This site is selling an autographed 3x5 index card for $60 and an autographed Sports Illustrated that's numbered to 96 for $300. There's a definitely lack of Johnson's autograph out there especially certified trading card autographs (which is largely due to his never signing for Upper Deck). I think that I could legitimately see this card, numbered to just 99 copies, having a value around the $100 mark. Too high? Too low?
Now I have to figure out what 5-7 comparable players I would like to ask for in return. I don't do hockey at all so that rules out the only sport that Upper Deck still has a license for. There are some players that I collect which would have to be a 1/1 card in order for this to be comparable such as Glen Davis, Jon Lester, Clay Buchholz, Dwight Evans, Kent Hrbek, etc.
So, who do I collect who I think might possibly have a card that I feel is comparable to the hypothetical Johnson?
- Well, I don't have a Tom Brady autograph in my collection yet. Maybe I should request a Brady shadowbox auto. That's probably worth 5 hypothetical Johnsons. Tom Brady definitely makes the list. That's about it as far as Patriots go though.
- Paul Pierce is an option, but I already have a lot of his autographs and none of them go for a hypothetical Johnson unless they're low numbered with a patch.
- One Celtic who I do not have an autograph of in my collection is Kevin Garnett. There aren't a ton of Garnett autographs out there and I don't think he's in Panini products at all. Garnett is a solid option.
- I also don't have an autograph of Ray Allen, but he's about a half of a hypothetical Johnson. One option might be to request some kind of multi-signature Celtics card to see what they can do.
- I finally added a David Ortiz autograph to my collection, but it would be nice to have another.
- New Red Sox Adrian Gonzalez and Carl Crawford will be here for a while. It would be nice to have autographs of either of those guys especially A-Gon since I've been a fan of his for a while.
Anyone out there have any other ideas or suggestions?

Having just moved to Southern Oregon, I saw an ad for Brown Chicken Brown Cow String Band to play at the Applegate River Lodge. Guess they played there before and liked it enough for a second visit.
Being about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes from me, I went up and filmed them. Since I was in the process of moving when they where on Maui last and I missed them. My grandson hung out where they stayed for a few days, so they know Jordan.
So here is the number they opened up with and it's still taking me awhile to get them up loaded.
I shot over to see the fire works at the In and Out Treesort the next night, same sound crew worked both.
Hope you enjoy and I will post more. There is more on my EmpowerMaui Youtube sight already.

Sabres hope Boyes can provide some offensive punchNHL.com @NHL
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Terry Pegula's influence and deep pockets as the Buffalo Sabres new owner quickly paid off for the team at the NHL's trading deadline.
With Pegula's blessing, the Sabres added forward Brad Boyes - and what's left of the player's hefty salary - to a lineup in need of offensive punch in a bid to make one final push for the playoffs.
"This is a new era of ownership," general manager Darcy Regier said Monday, a day after acquiring Boyes in a trade with the St. Louis Blues. "The parameters are different. I think what Terry has done is open up an area that we haven't had the ability to go to before. And that's positive."
Regier was referring to how, in the past, he lacked the flexibility to add a high-priced player such as Boyes. In exchange for a second-round draft pick, the Sabres landed a two-time 30-goal-scorer, while also picking up what's left of Boyes' $4.5 million salary this season, plus the $4 million he's to make next year.
His addition ups the Sabres payroll to about $56 million, about $3.5 million under the NHL salary cap.
The trade was completed late Sunday night, and less than a week after Pegula, a Pennsylvania billionaire and longtime Sabres fan, closed on his $189 million purchase of the franchise. Regier said Pegula was on hand during trade talks for much of the weekend in leading up to Monday's deadline.
Boyes joins the Sabres (29-25-7) who sit two points behind Carolina in the race for the Eastern Conference's eighth and final playoff spot. Buffalo also prepares to embark on a seven-game road trip that opens at the New York Rangers on Tuesday.
"For us to be able to add someone who is going to contribute offensively ... it's important," Regier said. "It's an important message to send to the players."
Boyes traveled to Buffalo from Calgary, where he played in the Blues' 1-0 loss on Sunday night. After completing his physical, Boyes was scheduled to join the Sabres in New York.
The 28-year-old has 12 goals and 29 assists in 62 games this season. His 41 points immediately put him second on the Sabres list this season, behind Thomas Vanek's 52.
Vanek credited Pegula for making the move.
"What else can you ask for in an owner who wants to really win?" Vanek said. "For us, it's great. Now we've just got to rise up to it."
Boyes addition should help.
"I think it's huge," Vanek said. "Any time you can add scoring to your lineup it's going to help out. The guy's proven, and I think he's going to fit in good here."
Buffalo's offense has been inconsistent for much of this season, and was dealt a big blow after losing top-line center Derek Roy to a season-ending knee injury in late December. The Sabres are coming off a six-game homestand in which they went 2-3-1, a stretch during which they managed just 12 goals.
Though he can play center, Boyes is initially expected to play right wing on a line centered by Tim Connolly.
"We're getting a good player," coach Lindy Ruff said. "He's responsible at both ends of the ice. He's dangerous offensively and a very reliable on the other side of it. He just adds to our offensive depth."
Selected in the first round of the 2000 draft by Toronto, Boyes is a six-year NHL veteran, who has spent the past four seasons in St. Louis.
He enjoyed his best stretch during a two-year span from 2007-09 with the Blues, when he combined for 77 goals and 137 points in 164 games. Boyes' production has fallen off over the past two seasons, during which he has 16 goals and 83 points in 144 games.
The Sabres are counting on a change of scenery to boost Boyes, who also finds himself closer to home have grown up in nearby Mississauga, Ontario.
Boyes chalked up his lack of production this season to a series of injuries that have hit the Blues, as well as the team's defensive style of play.
"I would have loved to score more. If I did, maybe I'd still be in St. Louis," Boyes said. "But I love where I'm going. I'm looking forward to it."
The Blues are in rebuilding mode, sitting in 13th in the West. This marks their third significant trade over the past two weeks, after dealing captain Eric Brewer to Tampa Bay and sending former No. 1 pick, defenseman Erik Johnson, to Colorado.
Blues general manager Doug Armstrong said Boyes became expendable on a team that's suddenly stocked at right wing.
AP sports writer R.B. Fallstrom contributed to this report in St. Louis.

Martin Mak a blighter Ezine novelist in his piece 'find out what is your own exceptional way of learning' stated that near are 2 chief modes of learning:
1. The cabaret in, legal proceeding and nonaccomplishment conceptualization.
2. The deliberate approachPost ads:

On linguistic process Martin's nonfictional prose I complete that the honkytonk in, examination and inaccuracy move towards is my firsthand manner of study and manual labour situations and in more than a few areas I have been impressively triple-crown. After reflective on this I now accept I can reply the give somebody the third degree in the order of why the 'Just do it' point of view can be successful.
As I said before, for as perennial as I can remember the 'dive in, examination and error' means has been my firsthand style of operation, primarily I ever had difficulties near fashioning a program and carrying it out. In the archaean component of my natural life the nightclub in viewpoint was not amazingly no-hit. I would repeatedly forget to do things, my school assignment was extremely inconsistent, projects and instruction pursue would not be solid because I would isolated off educational activity and devote too some event in quite a few areas and not sufficient in others.
Later in beingness I have get more and more potent using the 'Just do it!' approach, above all in my manual labour but also in my of my own enthusiasm. So what is the distinction concerning how I am now and how I was then? Thinking active it the contrast is obvious, more understanding and more suffer. However what is not conspicuous is what has allowed me over instance to do more than a lot of relations whom I did worse than in the ult.Post ads:

To recap what I infer is active on lets purloin the first of its kind of a hackney carriage operator. You would not wish a automobile driver to map the journey out in Google maps past he took you to the aerodrome. That would be cockamamie right, and if he did it the juncture golf stroke the information into the mapping system would have it in mind it took him longer to do his job. You would not wait for him to create the flight because you would trust that he knows the realm symptomless (his culture). Even although he knows the specialism well, this may be the prototypical time he has departed from this establishment character to this end rank. He likely does not specifically formulate the livelong path out in his head back he starts so he is taking the dive in nightmare and slip move towards. I focus it is definite tho' that his highway decisions are not capricious but hep.
How more or less a set-up where causal agent is doing something for the first time, a baby learning to step or verbalize or an elderly youth acquisition to drive a bike. In this proceeding while it is the initial case this distraction has been done in the shield of close and conversation the infant has had a weeklong incident perceptive those doing these actions and has instinctual drives to step and to interact. In the status of the fry moving the wheel the toddler has likewise been perceptive and besides has a lot of acquired non spoken notions in the region of go together which will facilitate him/her artist the commotion as Martin also renowned.
In my own crust I deem that I stockroom my comprehension in a structural genre that is set up in such a way that the fluency is reflexively triggered by dealings. In masses cases because of the multifariousness and number of familiarity and all the potentialities that come in to the plane it is not practical for the sentient consciousness to button it and it arises as a sub choral outlook. This I reckon is what a intuition is or the manoeuvre may likewise be referred to as intuitional intelligent. Another way to put it is, that the way the know-how has been keep allows it to be applied in an machine-driven about instinctual way like the youngster moving the trail bike. It is just about as if I am able to procedure the statistics in a more 3 dimensional way fairly than relying on a proceedings pace by manoeuvre way of thinking.
I reflect that all grouping have the facility to grow this way of reasoning and that oodles individuals only have inner health something like property based on unconscious comprehension but they don't belongings their morale. If you believe you fall down into this class of having sensitiveness but not trustful them then arrival letters it set all occurrence you have a noticeable impression and later checking put money on to see whether you were freedom. This will assistance you increase fervour in your vibrations and put you more in touch next to your own intuition.
If you want to acquire a much unempirical thinking attack past opening grilling the global about you more and your own interaction beside it and try to see how you really fit in to the task of property. Try to really get to the bosom of what makes belongings and grouping the way they are. Also comprehend internally how you conjecture almost holding and what is dynamical your opinions. If you really activate to do this you should beginning to become more aware just about the planetary and the group about you.
