Digital Counterinsurgency: How to Marginalize the Islamic State OnlineAuthor: Jared Cohen
The Islamic State, or ISIS, is the first terrorist group to hold both physical and digital territory: in addition to the swaths of land it controls in Iraq and Syria, it dominates pockets of the Internet with relative impunity. But it will hardly be the last. Although there are still some fringe terrorist groups in the western Sahel or other rural areas that do not supplement their violence digitally, it is only a matter of time before they also go online.

NEW YORK, Sept. 6 (UPI) -- U.S. grandparents are a financial safety net for their children and grandchildren, but they may need the cash themselves, a survey indicates.
"Grandparents Investing in Grandchildren: The MetLife Study on How Grandparents Share Their Time, Values and Money," conducted by the MetLife Mature Market Institute in conjunction with Generations United, a multi-generational advocacy organization, found 62 percent of grandparents provided financial support -- averaging $8,289 -- to grandchildren in the past five years. Most of the money was for investment and education, the survey found.
The survey also found 20 percent of grandparents were living in multi-generational households -- 30 percent have grandchildren living with them, while 35 percent live with an adult child only.
Forty-three percent attributed the economic downturn as the reason for financial support, while 34 percent said they were helping despite their belief that such assistance would have a negative effect on their own finances, the survey said.
"The bad news is that grandparents are making financial sacrifices that could cost them when they find themselves short of the savings they need to support themselves in retirement. There is a need to balance what they're giving with what they can afford to give," Sandra Timmermann, director of the MetLife Mature Market Institute, said in a statement. "It's recommended grandparents seek financial advisers and education resources to guide them through the process of giving."
The survey, conducted by Harris Interactive, of 1,008 grandparents age 45 or older was conducted April 4-11. No margin of error was provided.

- Location:
- Albany, NY
- Division:
- United States
- What do you love about your bedroom?:
- I love the natural light, and how easy it was to arrange my bedroom how I wanted. My reading nook is by my bay windows, not too far from my bed, but the fact that I have all of this space in a smaller than average bedroom is amazing. Plus, the view of Albany that I have is spectacular!
- What are your tips for creating a beautiful, healthy and organized bedroom?:
- Try to arrange your bedroom so you have feng shui. Where your bed is placed in relation to the door and windows is key for a healthy, comfortable space. Always try and utilize your storage space or lack thereof. I have things underneath both my bed and chair, organized in bins and buckets for easy access without the eye sore!
- In modern homes, bedrooms have become more than just a place to sleep; they can be a retreat, a home office, a library, a relaxation zone. What are some ways you make the most of your bedroom?:
- My bedroom is where I sleep, and my nook area is where I read and sometimes even eat! I feel most comfortable in my bedroom out of all of the other spaces in my apartment.

Photographer Sues Justin Bieber + His Ninja Moves for Assault
Since Justin Bieber doesn't have enough problems these days -- most of them stemming from the fact that he's Justin Bieber -- the teen pop star is now being sued by a photographer for allegedly assaulting him in a parking lot with some seriously wicked moves.
The altercation happened back in May of 2012, when the Biebs was still dating flame Selena Gomez, but a lawsuit wasn't filed until yesterday (June 26).
Paparazzo Jose Osmin Hernandez Duran claims the singer kicked and punched him outside of a shopping center after Jose snapped photos of him exiting the movies with Gomez.
The story goes that before the assault, the Biebs started to drive away in his Mercedes, but then abruptly changed his mind, got out of the car and started running toward the photographer, jumping "into the air from 6 to 8 feet away to deliver a martial-arts-type kick" to Duran's stomach before punching him in the face and pushing him up against a parked car.
Sounds like someone's been watching too much 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.'
The suit also claims Gomez later returned to look for her cellphone, and she apologized for Justin's behavior.
The lawsuit seeks an undisclosed sum for "severe and extreme emotional distress" and negligence. (In case you don't already know, "undisclosed sum" is legalese for "a whole butt-load of cash.")

Though cynical people like to say, "All cats are gray in the dark," the difference between this and that counts with me. Thus, if for no other purpose than to satisfy my own curiosity, I set out to find the truth about Gus, the cat that had long presided over lower Carytown from his plush basket in a bookstore display window facing the street.
Since I've known Salins, a writer/filmmaker/house-painter, for a long time, I suspected his charge was a setup for a weak joke. To give him room to operate I asked, "So, this Gus is an impostor?"
"Just like Lassie, several cats have played the role of Gus over the years," Salins said matter-of-factly.
Until that moment it hadn't occurred to me that Gus, someone else's cat, had slowly become important to me over the years. In the past I've been told that he's over 15, maybe pushing 20. Who can say what that is in cat years? He still has a few teeth left.
"You see, in '91 I had lost my beloved Skinkywinkydinky in a separation," Salins went on, as if revealing a dark conspiracy. "When I first saw Gus, I took to him because he reminded me of Skinky. That Gus wouldn't let you touch him. But, this Gus…"
"Ted, this is absolutely the most off-the-wall nonsense you've come up with yet," I accused.
"The place has changed hands a few times since then," Salins smugly offered. "The problem is each owner falls in love with the cat and keeps it. But since Gus has become an institution in Carytown, each set of new owners has to find another cat that looks like Gus. The switch is made at night in order to preserve the secret. I've seen it."
Before I could say "horsefeathers," another member of the Carytown intelligentsia, who had just walked up, spoke: "Salins, as usual you're all wet," said artist Jay Bohannan. "That is not only the same cat, but Gus is, let's see, yes, he's nearly 70. That particular cat is probably the oldest cat this side of the island of Lamu."
I laughed at Bohannan's crack and excused myself from the table to let them hash it out. The two of them have been arguing good-naturedly since their VCU art school days in the early '70s.
Walking toward my car, Ted's suggestion of a fraud having been perpetrated on the public bothered me. I felt certain that if somebody had actually installed a faux Gus in the bookstore it would have been all over the street the next day. As I tried to imagine people spiriting nearly identical cats in and out of the back door, in the dead of night, the matter wouldn't rest.
So I turned around and went into Carytown Books. The shop's manager, Kelly Justice, who has worked there for six years under three editions of ownership, scoffed at Salins' charge.
"Anyone who knows Ted, knows he's a nitwit," said Ms. Justice with a wry smile. "More likely than not, this is an attempt to raise funds for another one of his documentaries."
When I told her about Bohannan's equally outrageous suggestion that Gus was almost a septuagenarian, Justice laughed out loud. "Perhaps Jay and Ted are both trying to hitch their wagons to Gus' star," she suggested playfully.
Back outside, Salins and Bohannan were both gone. So I walked east on the block to Bygones, the collectable clothing and memorabilia store known for its artful window displays. Since Maynee Cayton, the shop's proprietor, is an unofficial historian for the neighborhood, I decided to see what she knew about Gus.
Cayton, who has been at that location for 16 years, said she had some pictures of the block from the '30s and '40s, but she didn't think she had any shots of a bookstore cat. However, she did remember that when she was a child she saw a gray and white cat in the window of what was then the Beacon Bookstore.
"It was in the late '60s, I think it was 1967," she said, raising an eyebrow. "And I'd say it was a young cat. Either way, I can't believe the feline impersonator story, so maybe it was Gus."
The next day, Bohannan called on the phone to tell me he had something I needed to see right away. He was mysterious about it and wouldn't explain what he was talking about, except to say that it was proof of his claim about Gus the Cat.
Unable to let it go, I told him I'd stop by his place to see what proof he had.
Bohannan's apartment, located between Carytown and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, was an escape from the modern world altogether. It's furnished in a pleasant mix of practical artifacts and curiosities from yesteryear. The heavy black telephone on his desk was almost as old as Jay. Next to the desk was a turn-of-the-century gramophone. Bohannan, himself, dressed like a character who just stepped out of a Depression-era RKO film, reached into a dog-eared manila folder and pulled out a photograph. When I asked him where he had gotten the picture, purportedly from about 1930, he shrugged.
In such a setting, his evidence of Gus' longevity took on an eerie authenticity. Sitting in one of Bohannan's ancient oak chairs, surrounded by his own paintings of scenes from Virginia's past, I thought I could see the cat he claimed was depicted in the storefront's window. Why, it even looked like Gus.
Jay told me I could keep the photo, it was just a Xerox copy. What a scoop!
Later, when I looked at the grainy picture at home, I could hardly even see a cat. The next day, back in Carytown, I spoke with several people who hang out or work in the neighborhood. A few actually thought Bohannan's bizarre contention could be true. Others agreed with Salins.
One man, who refused to be quoted with attribution, said he was sure the original Gus was an orange cat. A woman looked up from her crossword puzzle to note that Bohannan's evidence was at least as good as what she'd seen on the Loch Ness Monster.
Then the whole group of chatty know-it-alls went off on the general topic of conspiracy theories and hoaxes. At the next table a woman in a straw hat started sketching the sidewalk scene.
A few days later, I saw Ted Salins holding court in front of the coffee shop. I told him what Kelly had said about his claim and I showed him Jay's so-called proof that Gus is ancient.
"The next thing you're going to tell me is Shakespeare actually wrote all those plays," Ted said mockingly. "Look, it's not the same cat. Live with it. This Gus is a ringer, maybe three years old."
Turning around, I looked through the storefront's glass at good old Gus in his usual spot. He looked comfortable with a new electric heater under the blanket in his basket. It dawned on me that there was a time when Gus used to avoid me, as well. Now he seems happy for me to pet him, briefly.
Pulled back into the spell of the mystery, I wondered, had Gus changed or had I? Gus stared back at me and blinked. Like one of his favorite authors, J. D. Salinger, Gus wasn't talking.
Gus was smiling as only a cat can; a smile that suggests equal parts of wisdom-of-the-ages and dumb-as-a-bag-of-hammers. One obvious truth about Gus the Cat was that he had grown quite accustomed to having a public.
Note: The photo of Gus was taken by Stacy Warner for Richmond.com. On June 19, 2001 a cat alleged to have been the authentic Gus the Cat was found dead in Carytown Books; he was estimated by the bookstore's spokesperson to have been about 18 years old.

I didn't have any white cheddar, so I used grated parmesan to top it with... Could that be the cause of my quiches exploding midway through the baking, turning my muffin tin into one big egg coated mess?

These were awesome! I didn't have manchego cheese, but substituted a blend of gouda, edam, and moz which turned out fantastic; thank you! To whomever made the comment about exploding: mine were bubbling up from the inside, too. I found that lowering the heat a little on the second batch made a big difference.

I tried it today and it was really good. However, the shape was not nice...... I don't know how to fix that! May I have a few ideas chef?
Thanks for sharing great recipe.

Thanks again for a wonderful recipe Chef John! Followed the recipe (always do when making something for thee first time) and they came out great! Mine don't look as pretty as yours, but they took exactly 17 minutes are super tasty.
I needed some macho food to take with me to a UFC fight night so I decided on mini quiches and cupcakes ;)

Made these puppies today and hot damn, they were a hit! This was for a group of guys playing a really intense Star Wars D&D style game, and they were loved by even the most engrossed of nerds. I overfilled my egg mixture and it overran the sides, but the excess was easily cut off and no one was the wiser.
I made your garlic aioli, and I messed up by using two cloves of garlic instead of one. Historically, I go ahead and add in one extra clove to every recipe I make, but as you rightly mention in that post, one clove goes a lot farther than you'd think in this instance.
Either way, a success. Your recipes are the ONLY ones I will attempt the first time even for company. They always go well. The force is with you!

Monday night was another rough one for the Eagles and things started rolling downhill when Saints cornerback Patrick Robinson returned an interception 99 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter.
That was the ninth interception thrown by Vick this season, continuing a long trend of red zone turnovers that have contributed heavily to Philly's 11-13 record since the start of the 2011 season. Painful stuff and it's made all the more painful by the fact that Vick wound up losing money on the play.
The NFL has confirmed that Vick was fined $7,875 for a low block on Saints safety Roman Harper during Robinson's return. Vick was penalized for the play during the game, but the league decided the hit deserved a little more punishment. A hit on Vick by Saints linebacker Martez Wilson was also flagged during the game, but there was no fine levied for that infraction.
So Vick's wallet is a little lighter thanks to a play that will contribute to the argument that his earning power should also be cut sharply after this season when the Eagles decide whether or not to continue paying out the final three years of his contract.

NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA--For the first time in several years, two student-athletes will represent the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's track and field team at the NCAA Division III Outdoor Track and Field Championships this weekend.
Junior throwers Krista Chauvin (Seekonk, MA/Seekonk HS/Stonehill) and Brett Croteau (Rehoboth, MA/Dighton-Rehoboth HS) of the Corsairs will participate at the meet at Veterans memorial Stadium at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. Chauvin will throw the hammer Friday evening at 6:00 p.m. ET, while Croteau will participate in the javelin Saturday at 1:40 ET.
"The berths are well-deserved on their part," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Steve Gardiner. "They have put in a lot of effort all year to get to this point."
Chauvin's school record mark of 188 feet, 10 inches has accorded her the top seed in her competition, while Croteau is ranked 17th and seeded 16th in the javelin with a mark of 200 feet, eight inches.
Chauvin is making her second consecutive appearance at nationals, having finished ninth last year."Krista comes in with a lot more confidence and not as much pressure as far as trying to make the finals," said Gardiner. "Most of her throws this year would allow her to make the finals. The experience she gained at the Penn Relays should really help her. She has higher expectations, but she also has a better understanding of the whole process than she had last year."
Croteau is going to nationals for the first time. "Brett's been very consistent all year, he's been flirting with the 200 mark each week, and he's placed in the top three in every big meet he's competed in this spring," said Gardiner. "I know he's excited to compete on the national level. It will help having Krista there who's already gone through it and has the perspective of going through it as an athlete rather than as a coach. That could be a real benefit for Brett."
Assistant Coach Darren DeAndrade coaches both throwers, and will also accompany them to the meet. "Darren's done a great job this year," said Gardiner. "I can't say enough about the job he's done."
The meet will mark the end of the spring season for the Corsairs.

Although anyone can walk into any kitchen and bath design center or furniture store to pick cabinets, vanities or entertainment centers that work well for them, sometimes it is impossible to find exactly what you are looking for. Some spaces require a tight fit and others have a large area to fill. Other times homeowners have a discerning taste and just cannot find exactly what they are looking for. This is where our custom design services come in and our kitchen remodel Indianapolis.
Custom Kitchen Cabinets
The kitchen is such an important part of any home and its most visual aspect is the cabinetry installed. Most of the surface area of a kitchen is covered in cabinets and it is important to have cabinets that match the style of the rest of the home along with the appliances in the kitchen as well. We often hear from homeowners who have seen a particular picture in a magazine or have a specific idea in their mind about what they may want in their kitchen. The problem is that many times, those cabinet lines are not carried in the homeowner's area or do not come in the size or color specifications that they may need. The only solution then is custom kitchen remodel Indianapolis.
Custom Bathroom Vanities
Just as custom cabinets work to achieve the specific look that a homeowner wants in a kitchen, a custom bathroom vanity will complete the look of your bathroom to give you the perfect complement to any bathroom space. The bathroom can sometimes be a difficult area to complete. Some homeowners have problems with tight spaces while others have areas that are too large to fit the average stock vanity. Custom vanities can be made to your exact specifications, always accounting for space and feel. We can work with any design that you would like to replicate or even work with you to create a custom look just for you.
Custom Entertainment Centers
With the inclusion of flat screen televisions in most homes these days, it is difficult to find an entertainment center that will work with the look that you would like to achieve. Many homeowners do not want to drill into their walls to hang their televisions or go through the hassle of finding ways to hide wires and cable boxes. Many furniture stores have limited inventory on entertainment centers which makes finding the perfect one for your home virtually impossible. We can build you an entertainment center that is either free-standing or built-in. We can make it fit a specific television size or make sure that there are enough spaces for your sound system, DVR, Blu-Ray player, video game consoles or other devices that you might want to include. The choice is yours.
Custom Bookshelves
Custom bookshelves add a certain feel to any room that just cannot be replicated with store-bought shelving units. Custom bookshelves will take into account the needs of the individual homeowner, for example, allowing for extra storage space at the bottom of the unit, or accounting for different design elements such as fireplaces or televisions. Whatever look you desire, a custom bookshelf will bring value to any home and are well-sought after by potential homeowners looking to one day purchase your home.

Ankle Leaves Harvin Doubtful For Bears
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings will likely be without wide receiver Percy Harvin again this weekend because of his sprained left ankle.
Harvin was listed as doubtful for the Sunday's game at Chicago. He tried to test his foot with some pre-practice work on Friday, but coach Leslie Frazier said he couldn't put much weight on it.
Harvin sprained his left ankle at Seattle on Nov. 4 and didn't play against Detroit on Nov. 11. The bye gave Harvin last week to heal, but he still hasn't regained enough strength and mobility in the joint to rejoin the team. Harvin entered this week second in the NFL in total yards behind Green Bay's Randall Cobb.
Left guard Charlie Johnson and nose tackle Letroy Guion were listed as questionable with toe injuries.

VICTORIA—Happy happy hour, British Columbia.
New liquor laws took effect Friday that allow bars and pubs to offer for the first time the popular time-limited drink specials.
B.C. was the only province in Canada that did not allow licensed bars and restaurants to change their prices during the course of a day.
Under the new rules, the minimum drink price is $3 for a single-ounce cocktail, a five-ounce glass of wine or a 12-ounce sleeve of beer.
"With happy hours up and running in B.C., operators can cater to groups by offering drink specials for 'team nights,' for example, helping fill their seats on slow days or during not-so-busy times," Poma Dhaliwal, president of the Alliance of Beverage Licensees, said in a statement.
Other changes to provincial liquor laws include dropping the requirement for customers to order food with drinks in a licensed restaurant and allowing hosts with a special occasion licence to serve homemade and U-brew beer, wine or cider.
Government officials said the new rules balance industry needs with health and safety considerations. The minimum prices for happy-hour drinks were put in place to encourage responsible consumption, said a statement from the Justice Ministry.
"Allowing licensees, such as pubs, restaurants and lounges, to alter their liquor prices throughout the course of the day is a pocket-book friendly change for British Columbians that will help the industry attract customers at times when business may typically be slow," it said.

We dig minicars. We also dig Italian cars. And we dig the Dakar Rally very much. Fiat, knowing this, has decided to enter two 4x4 Pandas in the Dakar Rally. They turned the diminutive hatch into a panel van, filled it full of goodies helpful for survival in the desert, and left the 105-horse 1.3L turbodiesel alone. We're interested to see how it fares. The understressed motor should be reliable in the desert, but raw speed won't exactly be the car's forte. An interesting entry in a race chock full of interesting entries.

Biostatistician Nicholas Reich of the School of Public Health and Health Sciences, an expert in statistical modeling of infectious disease data, is part of a team that recently won a five-year, $2.5 million grant from the NIH's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases to develop and extend statistical and modeling methodologies to correct for biases in surveillance data. Specifically, he and colleagues will collaborate with Thailand's Ministry of Health to study patterns of dengue fever there. Reich will receive about $700,000 of the total grant.
Dengue fever, a viral infection transmitted to humans by mosquito bites, often causes severe symptoms including a rash, fever, headache, and muscle and joint pain. In extreme cases, it can lead to internal bleeding, organ failure and in rare cases, death. Dengue circulates in over 100 countries and is emerging in much of the western hemisphere including places such as Puerto Rico and Florida, Reich points out. As global temperatures warm due to climate change, dengue may become endemic in more parts of the world. Dengue fever is responsible for an estimated 50 million infections and 19,000 deaths worldwide each year.
"There is an active, multi-pronged global campaign to knock out this disease," Reich adds. "One of our goals is to create a tool for the Thai health ministry to help them predict the timing and spread of dengue outbreaks in their country so they can allocate their resources effectively."
The researchers are setting out to enhance understanding of dengue transmission in Thailand, and to improve the Thai dengue surveillance system by providing an integrated approach for predicting future incidence and forecasting the onset of outbreaks in real time. The methods they develop, says Reich, will in turn aid public health officials in responding to emerging dengue epidemics throughout the world. Also, he points out that these techniques should be applicable to a wide variety of diseases and contexts.
Reich, who has previously taught two workshops on outbreak investigations at the Thai Ministry of Public Health, says he and his postdoctoral research assistant will travel there once or twice a year during the period 2013 to 2018 to conduct more training sessions and collaborate on the dengue fever study.
The lead researcher for this work is Justin Lessler, an epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore. Other key personnel are Derek Cummings, also an epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins and Sopon Iamsirithaworn, director of both the field epidemiology training program in Thailand and the World Health Organization's Collaborating Center for Field Epidemiology.

Blues rally to beat Sharks in OTby Eric Gilmore
SAN JOSE -- St. Louis Blues forward Vladimir Sobotka entered Saturday's game against the San Jose Sharks on a hot streak, having scored a goal in three of his past four games, including back-to-back contests.
But that was just a warm-up act: Sobotka scored St. Louis' first three goals for his first career NHL hat trick before Patrik Berglund's goal 1:12 into overtime gave the Blues a 4-3 victory.
Sobotka scored a first-period goal and two more in the third when the Blues dug their way out of a 3-1 hole.
"It felt great," Sobotka said of the hat trick. "I don't know how to describe the feeling right now, but I feel great."
Sobotka entered the game with 23 career goals in five-plus NHL seasons and just four this season. But Blues coach Ken Hitchcock said he's not surprised by Sobotka's recent scoring streak or his hat trick.
"He plays a different role [in the NHL] than he plays in Europe," Hitchcock said. "He doesn't play the checking role that he does in the National Hockey League. He quarterbacks the power play on the [Czech Republic] national team. He runs most of the 4-on-4 play internationally. Plays on the top line.
"So he knows how to play. The thing that's interesting for us is he's not naturally a center. He's a left winger. He's learned to play with more patience now, and maybe it's made him a better player. He's a gifted offensive player who found a new role when he came to North America. He's a typical example of a guy who got pigeon-holed in a role just trying to make it in the League. He's a smart player."
After Sobotka's hat trick got the Blues to overtime, defenseman Barret Jackman fired a shot from the left circle and Berglund redirected the puck past Sharks backup goaltender Alex Stalock, who had replaced starter Antti Niemi midway through the third after the Blues had pulled even at 3-3.
"II don't even really feel that I tipped it in, but, you know, we had a great shift," Berglund said. "We kept the puck in. ... Trying to just go in front of the net there. Trying to battle and be in the way for something, and [Jackman] takes a good shot. I looked back and it's in the net. Obviously a great feeling."
The Sharks were outshot 35-25, but they had goals from Logan Couture, Scott Gomez and Matt Irwin.
For the Sharks, scoring three goals in regulation qualified as an offensive explosion. They hadn't scored more than two goals in regulation since a 5-3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks on Feb. 5, a streak of 12 games. In their previous 17 games they had scored just 24 goals in regulation -- after scoring 23 in their first five.
Yet even with three goals and a two-goal lead in the third, the Sharks had to settle for one point heading into a road game Sunday against the Colorado Avalanche.
"That was a tough one to take," Couture said. "With a 3-1 lead going into the third, obviously you don't want to give it up. It's tough right now to get over, but we have a game tomorrow that we have to focus on. You think about the mistakes you made, move on, and get better from it."
After the first period ended 1-1, the Sharks got goals by Gomez and Irwin in the second to take a 3-1 lead. But Sobotka scored two quick goals in the third, and the Blues made it 3-3 with 14:22 left to play.
"It was a good win for us," Hitchcock said. "We didn't deserve to be down 3-1 in the second at the end. Our guys knew it. We knew if we stayed with it, the law of averages would work out. We played a heck of a second period and all of a sudden it doesn't feel like it when you're down 3-1. Give our guys a lot of credit. They stayed with it. We didn't get discouraged after their third goal went in. We knew we were going to get more chances, like we did in the third."
Sobotka, who had scored the Blues' first-period goal, scored from the right circle at 4:18 of the third, threading a shot past Sharks defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic that got past Niemi and went just inside the left post.
Hitchcock said he sensed the momentum change the moment Sobotka scored his second goal.
"They were on their heels," he said of the Sharks. "They were a little bit nervous. We [were] just coming."
Just 80 seconds later, Sobotka completed his hat trick and tied the game when he scored a power-play goal with Sharks defenseman Dan Boyle in the penalty box for interference. With Chris Stewart planted in front of Niemi, Sobotka wristed an innocent-looking shot. The puck snuck over Niemi's left pad and trickled into the net.
"It doesn't matter who scores on this team," Sobotka said. "We got two points. That's really important for us right now because we need it."
The Blues have won back-to-back games for the first time since a three-game streak Feb. 13-17. They improved to 2-2-0 on their road trip with one game left, Sunday against the Anaheim Ducks.
After Sobotka tied the game, Sharks coach Todd McLellan pulled Niemi and replaced him with Stalock, who was called up Saturday from Worcester of the American Hockey League. Stalock suited up in place of backup goaltender Thomas Greiss, who suffered a neck injury Wednesday against the Calgary Flames.
"You could feel the team sag at that point," McLellan said. "We had two options. We could pull the goalie or take a timeout. We pulled the goalie. You could walk into that locker room and everybody will tell you how important Niemi has been to our team and how much he has meant. He's been our most valuable player, but tonight he struggled a bit."
The Sharks had grabbed a 2-1 lead at 7:45 of the second when Gomez banged a rebound past rookie goaltender Jake Allen. James Sheppard ripped a shot from the high slot that went in and out of Allen's glove then bounced off Ryane Clowe, directly to Gomez in front of the net. Gomez did the rest, scoring his second goal of the season.
Irwin made it 3-1 at 16:31, ripping a slap shot from the point through four Blues and past Allen. It was Irwin's second goal of the season; both have come on long-range lasers.
The Blues, who outshot San Jose 12-7 in the first period, took a 1-0 lead 4:51 into the game on Sobotka's fifth goal of the season. Kevin Shattenkirk fired a long blast from near the blue line along the right boards. Niemi made the save but couldn't control the rebound and it came to Sobotka, who had position inside of Sharks defenseman Justin Braun, just right of the crease. Sobotka beat Niemi from point-blank range.
"It's not a new thing that [Sobotka's] playing well," Berglund said. "He's contributing to this team every night. He plays all the roles, and it's just really fun to see that he gets his goals now. It's well deserved. He's a big part of this hockey team, hockey club, and I'm just real happy for him that he could collect the [hat trick] tonight."
The Sharks pulled even at 15:19 on Couture's ninth goal of the season, as he knocked a rebound past Allen. Forward Tommy Wingels earned the primary assist after coming off injured reserve and returning to the lineup for the first time since Feb. 23, when he was sent headfirst into the boards at Dallas.
Wingels drove hard to the net from the right side around Jackman and sent the puck toward the net. Allen made the save, but the puck pinballed off him and Blues defenseman Alex Pietrangelo's right skate to a hard-charging Couture, who was wide-open in front of the crease.
Wingels skated on a new-look first line with center Joe Thornton and Couture for the Sharks, who placed Martin Havlat on injured reserve Saturday with a lower-body injury.

Fees are set forth in Article VI of this chapter.
No final plat shall be approved by the approving authority until all items determined to be in the public interest have either been installed or bonded. Those which have been installed shall have been inspected, certified and approved by the Township Engineer, accepted by the governing body, and a maintenance guaranty filed and accepted by the governing body. Those items required to be bonded shall have been provided for by a performance guaranty accepted and approved by the governing body. No maintenance bond shall be accepted on any partially completed facility or for any item which has further work to be completed or which will need to be altered or reworked in any manner due to the installation or connection of any other facility. Any improvements installed prior to final plat application that do not meet the standards of this chapter or other regulations shall be added to the performance guaranty.
The applicant shall submit the performance guaranty to the Township Engineer, the Township Attorney and the governing body for review and approval by resolution. Final plat submission shall not be until the performance guaranty has been accepted and approved by the governing body. In the event that final approval is by stages or sections, the provisions of this section shall be applied by state or section.
In any performance guaranty, the developer shall be principal and the surety shall be either an acceptable surety company licensed to do business in the State of New Jersey and/or cash or certified check which shall be deposited with the Township Treasurer. Any performance guaranty obtained from a surety company shall be issued in the name of and executed by a representative of the developer on its behalf.

The Township Treasurer shall issue a receipt for such deposits. If the improvements have not been completed in accordance with the standards or within the stipulated time, but no longer than two years, the developer and surety shall be liable thereon for the reasonable cost of completing the improvements. The Township may, either prior to or after receipt of the proceeds thereof, complete such improvements.
The performance guaranty shall equal 120%, 10% of which shall be cash, of the cost of installing the improvements. It shall be either certified check, bank money order or surety bond of a bonding company approved by and at the option of the governing body or its designee. The Township Engineer's certification that the principal has satisfactorily installed the improvements or has defaulted shall be the basis for governing body action which accepts or rejects the improvements, withholds approval or extends the time allowed for installation of the improvements. As a condition or as part of any such extension, the amount of any performance guaranty shall be increased or reduced, as the case may be, to an amount not to exceed 120% of the cost of the installation as determined as of the date of the passage of the resolution.
[Amended 5-3-2011 by Ord. No. 2668-11]
Prior to construction, the developer shall arrange a preconstruction conference among the developer, contractor and Township Engineer. The Township Engineer shall be notified by registered mail by the developer at least 72 hours in advance of the start of construction. The cost of inspections shall be the responsibility of the developer, who shall reimburse the Township for all reasonable inspection fees by submitting a check or bank money order to the Township Clerk in accordance with the fee schedule in Article VI of this chapter. This fee shall be in addition to the amount of the performance guaranty and all application fees.
No work shall be done without permission from and inspection by the Township Engineer. No underground installation shall be covered until inspected and approved. The Township Engineer's office shall be notified after each of the following phases of the work has been completed so that he may inspect the work: road subgrade; curb and gutter forms; curbs and gutters; road paving (after each coat in the case of priming and sealing); drainage pipes and other drainage structures before backfilling; shade trees and planting strips; street name signs; and monuments.
All utility installations installed by utility companies shall not be subject to the inspection requirements or bonding.
Occupancy permits will be issued only when required fire alarms, curbs, aprons, utilities, functioning water supply and sewage treatment facilities, gutters and other necessary storm drainage to ensure proper drainage of the lot and surrounding land, fine grading of lots, clearing of sight triangles, soil stabilization, including topsoil and seeding, base course for the street and driveway, and sidewalks are installed to serve the lot and structure for which the permit is requested. Streets shall not receive surface course paving until all heavy construction is completed. Shade trees shall not be planted until all grading and earthmoving is completed.
Upon substantial completion of all required appurtenant utility improvement and the connection of the same to the public system, the developer shall prepare plans and profiles to read "as constructed" and submit one set to the administrative officer and may notify the governing body, in writing, by certified mail addressed in care of the Township Clerk, of the completion or substantial completion of improvements and shall send a copy thereof to the Township Engineer. The Township Engineer shall inspect all improvements of which such notice has been given and, within 30 days of completing the inspection, shall file a detailed report, in writing, with the Township Committee, recommending either approval, partial approval or rejection of such improvements with a statement of reasons for any rejection. The cost of the improvements as approved or rejected shall be set forth.
The governing body shall either approve, partially approve or reject the improvements and shall notify the developer by certified mail of the contents of the Township Engineer's report and the action of the approving authority with relation thereto, not later than 65 days after receipt of the notice from the developer of the completion of the improvements, except that no approval or partial approval shall be granted until an acceptable maintenance guaranty has been submitted and approved to cover the improvements. Where partial approval is granted, the developer shall be released from liability pursuant to its performance guaranty, except for that portion sufficient to secure provision of the improvements not yet approved, provided that 30% of the amount of the performance guaranty posted may be retained to ensure completion of all improvements. Failure of the governing body to send or provide such notification to the developer within 65 days shall be deemed to constitute approval of the improvements, and the developer and surety, if any, shall be released from all liability pursuant to such performance guaranty for such improvements.
If any portion of the required improvements is rejected, the approving authority may require the developer to complete such improvements and, upon completion, the same procedure of notification as set forth shall be followed.
Maintenance guaranty. No improvement shall be accepted by the governing body unless and until all of the following conditions have been met:
Written certification has been received from the Township Engineer that all improvements are complete and comply with this chapter and other ordinances.
The developer has provided a maintenance guaranty in an amount equal to 15% of the cost of improvements which runs for two years after final acceptance of the improvements by the governing body. The maintenance guaranty shall provide a guaranty to replace all work performed and all material furnished found defective and make good any defects thereof which become apparent during the two-year period. In addition, the developer shall accomplish regular maintenance such as curb and pavement replacement and repair, cleaning out catch basins and other matters. The maintenance guaranty shall be in a form acceptable to the governing body, the Township Engineer and Township Attorney. In the event that other governmental agencies or public utilities will own the utilities or the improvements are covered by a guaranty to another governmental agency, no performance or maintenance guaranty, as the case may be, shall be required by the Township for such utilities or improvements.
To obtain release of the maintenance bond, the developer shall, after all required maintenance has been completed, apply to the governing body, in writing, by certified mail, with a copy to the Township Engineer, for final inspection of the work. The Township Engineer shall, within 30 days of receipt of request for inspection, report, in writing, to the governing body, indicating either approval, partial approval or rejection of the improvements with a statement of reasons for any rejection.
The governing body shall either approve or reject the improvements and release of the maintenance bond or reduce the amount of the maintenance bond, following the same procedures as for performance bonds.
Upon adoption of this chapter, all previously adopted subdivision, site plan and zoning ordinances and their amendments are repealed.
The provisions of this chapter shall be held to be minimum requirements. Where this chapter establishes minimum and maximum standards, all standards shall be met. Where any provision of this chapter imposes restrictions different from those imposed by any other provision of this chapter or any other ordinance, rule, regulation or other provision of law, whichever provision is more restrictive or imposes a higher standard shall control.
No zoning permit, building permit or certificate of occupancy shall be issued or hearing held on an application for development or approval granted by the approving authority if taxes or assessment for local improvements are due or delinquent on the property for which application is made.
No zoning permit, building permit or certificate of occupancy shall be issued in any flood hazard area until all plans are compatible with the floodplain regulations of this chapter. Prior to issuing a permit in a flood hazard area, all permits shall have been obtained from necessary state or local authorities and it shall have been determined that there is no adverse effect on the flood-carrying capacity of the drainage course. Flood damage mitigation measures shall be made a condition of the permit.
A zoning permit shall be issued simultaneously with or before the issuance of any building permit or certificate of occupancy. For single-family and two-family dwellings, the building permit shall be considered to be the zoning permit. Zoning permits shall expire one year after the date of issuance if the use or substantial construction has not been commenced and diligently pursued to completion.
Every application for a building permit shall be submitted in accordance with the Uniform Construction Code.
A temporary certificate of occupancy may be issued by the Construction Official prior to the completion of all improvements required, provided that a bond is posted for the outstanding improvements and the temporary certificate is for no more than six months, with one three-month extension permitted.
Any new construction, alteration or change in use shall require a certificate of occupancy prior to use or occupancy. No certificate shall be issued unless the land, building and use comply with this chapter and any approvals or waivers granted under the provisions of this chapter. All matters incorporated in the approved subdivision or site plan such as streets, drainage, parking and water and sewer service shall be completed and accepted by the Township Engineer, and the building and health codes complied with prior to the issuance of the certificate.
A Planning Board is hereby established consisting of nine members and two alternates who shall serve for a term pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-23. The members of the Planning Board holding office on the date of the adoption of this chapter shall continue therein until present terms expire. The Class I member shall be the Mayor. The Class II member shall be an official of the Township other than a member of the Township Committee, and appointed by the Mayor. The Class III member shall be a member of the Township Committee and appointed by it. The Class IV members shall be appointed by the Mayor. The terms of all Class IV members first appointed under this section shall be determined so that so the greatest practical extent the expiration of such terms shall be distributed evenly over the first four years after the appointment. The term of each Class IV member shall not exceed four years.
The approving authority shall hold a public hearing on each application for development, except that site plans and minor subdivisions shall not require a hearing unless a variance or conditional use is part of the application. All public hearings shall follow the requirements of the Municipal Land Use Law.[1]
These regulations shall not abate or modify any action, penalty, liability or right pending under any ordinance repealed by the adoption of this chapter except as expressly provided in this chapter.
If any provision of this chapter is adjudged by the courts to be invalid, such adjudication shall apply only to that provision and the remainder of this chapter shall be deemed valid and effective.
In case of any violation of this chapter, the Township or any interested party, in addition to other remedies, may institute appropriate action to restrain, correct or abate such violation; to prevent the occupancy of said structure or land; and to prevent any illegal act, conduct, business or use in or about such premises. Any person convicted of the foregoing before a court of competent jurisdiction shall be subject to a penalty as set forth in the fees section of this chapter in Article VI. Each day shall be deemed a separate violation.
If, before final subdivision approval has been granted, any person as owner or agent transfers or sells or agrees to transfer or sell any land which forms a part of a subdivision for which municipal approval is required, except pursuant to an agreement expressly conditioned on final subdivision approval, such person shall be subject to a penalty as set forth in the fees section of this chapter in Article VI, and each lot disposition so made shall be a separate violation.
It shall be the duty of the Construction Official to investigate any violation of this chapter coming to his attention, whether by complaint or from his personal knowledge or observation. Where the Construction Official deems it necessary to obtain outside professional services, he shall notify the Township Committee of such necessity. It shall take such action as it may deem appropriate under the circumstances.
Where any building or structure is erected, constructed, altered, repaired, converted or maintained or any building, structure or land is used in violation of any provision of this chapter, the Construction Official shall serve notice upon the owner, his agent or person or corporation violating this chapter, either personally or by registered mail, to remove said violation within 10 days. If after 10 days the violation still exists, the Construction Official shall either:
Issue a summons returnable in the Municipal Court and file a complaint in the Municipal Court of the Township of Maplewood against the owner, his agent or any person or corporation perpetrating said violation, serving the aforesaid offender with proper notice, and prosecute this judgment in Municipal Court; or
File in the Superior Court a complaint to terminate said violation upon the express authority of the Township Committee and with the advice and assistance of the Township Attorney.

- The general process or the group of processes whereby the materials of the Earth's crust are loosened, dissolved, or worn away, and simultaneously moved from one place to another, by natural agencies, which include weathering, solution, corrosion, and transportation, but usually exclude mass wasting; specif. the mechanical destruction of the land and the removal of material (such as soil) by running water (including rainfall), waves and currents, moving ice, or wind.

A roofer, roof mechanic, or roofing contractor is a construction worker who specializes in roof construction. Roofers replace, repair, and install the roofs of buildings, using a variety of materials, including Roof shingle, Bituminous waterproofing, and Metal roof. Roofing work can be physically demanding because it involves heavy lifting, as well as climbing, bending, and kneeling, often in extreme weather conditions.
In the United States and Canada, they're often referred to as roofing contractors or roofing professionals. The most common roofing material in the United States is asphalt shingles. In the past, 3-tab shingles were used; nowadays, "architectural" or "dimensional" shingles are becoming very popular.
Depending on the region, other commonly applied roofing materials installed by roofers include concrete tiles, clay tiles, natural or synthetic slate, single-ply (primarily EPDM rubber, Polyvinyl chloride, or Thermoplastic olefin), rubber shingles (made from recycled tires), glass, metal panels or shingles, wood shakes or shingles, liquid-applied, hot asphalt/rubber, foam, thatch, and solar tiles. "Living roof" systems, or rooftop landscapes, have become increasingly common in recent years in both residential and commercial applications.See List of commercially available roofing material

Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and and saute until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and white wine and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the wine reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook just until they are pink, about 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the fusilli in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Drain the fusilli. Add the fusilli and arugula to the skillet. Toss to combine. Season the pasta, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to a large bowl and serve.


text: TV / VideoNBCU Preps Syndicated Meredith Vieira ShowFormer Today show co-anchor returns to morning TV in fall 2014By Anthony Crupi|July 9, 2013 ShareBy Anthony Crupi|July 9, 2013 Share Two years after bowing out as a co-anchor on NBC's Today show, Meredith Vieira is planning her return to morning TV. The 59-year-old talk show veteran will saddle up for The Meredith Vieira Show, a syndicated program that will be produced by NBCUniversal Domestic TV Distribution. The one-hour show is set to debut in September 2014. Featuring the sort of celebrity interviews and human-interest segments that are the coin of the realm on morning TV, Vieira's new show will be taped in New York. Along with her hosting duties, Vieira also will serve as an executive producer. Vieira said that her new show will draw on the skills she's amassed over the course of her 38-year media career, while serving "this fundamental need we have to connect with and find inspiration in each other." The new venture was announced today by NBC broadcasting chairman Ted Harbert. "All of us at NBCU are so excited about this new show with Meredith," Harbert said. "She creates an instant connection with audiences with her smart, quick-witted and down-to-earth style." A pilot for the show was shot in May. Vieira's various hosting gigs have made her one of the country's most popular TV personalities. Highlights include a stint as the original moderator of ABC's The View, the syndie quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (2002-13) and co-host of Today. In January, she announced that she would leave Millionaire after 11 seasons, leading to frenzied speculation that she would be returning to Today. Sliding into the seat last occupied by Katie Couric, Vieira co-hosted Today with Matt Lauer from September 2006 to June 2011. It perhaps speaks to Vieira's rapport with viewers that Today's ratings did not plummet after the wildly popular Couric departed to anchor the CBS Evening News. (Per Nielsen, Today averaged 5.41 million viewers during the Vieira era, down just 2 percent versus the 5.52 million delivered during Couric's 15-season rule.) Couric may find herself in direct competition with her Today show successor—her syndicated program for Disney/ABC Domestic TV, Katie, enters its second season this fall with a new executive producer at the helm (daytime vet Rachel Miskowiec)—although that showdown will only happen if the ratings improve. After getting off to a strong start, bowing with a 2.8 rating on Sept. 10, Katie's deliveries dropped off by as much as 26 percent in its fourth week. While the ratings leveled off, they never regained their early luster, and the show is by no means a shoe-in for a third season renewal. Sharehttp://adweek.it/14H28P2 copy Adweek Adweek
