Want to uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game in Mac OS X? An increasing number of Mac users keep asking about how to remove Don't Sleep: Horror Game completely on their Mac. Most of the users choose to uninstall applications on mac by dragging the apps to the trash only. They thought that the applications had been removed completely and thoroughly. However, when they tried to install the other version of the same app on the Mac next time, they would encounter installing failure problems during the process. Sometimes, people will even receive popping up error message telling user to uninstall the application completely before installing. For instance, they may get message like this: "Please uninstall the previous version before proceeding with the Don't Sleep: Horror Game installation." Why the message appeared on the screen? Obviously, they have not deleted the certain application in a right way. Lots of leftovers and junk files still exist in the Mac OS X so that conflicts would be generated when installing the latest version. If you are the one who need to uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game completely on your Mac, it is highly recommended you read this removal guides continually. Follow the steps about how to uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game, you will find that it is not so difficult to remove this application as you might think. But you do need to learn some skills to help you accomplish the removal task.
here are numbers of differences between Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows when uninstalling applications in these two environment. The most important distinction is that Mac OS X has no any Windows registry. Over 95% of the Windows programs have built-in uninstaller to allow PC users remove them from the Windows Add/Remove Programs in the control panel. Mac OS X however, does not have similar function like the program manager so most of the Mac users get confused when trying to uninstall applications on Mac. If you simply drag the Don't Sleep: Horror Game icon to the trash, it doesn't work at all. You just remove it from the screen but not uninstall it completely from the Mac OS X. Many a supported files and folders are still hidden in the computer. To uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game completely, you have to delete gigabytes of leftover junk files of it on your Mac. Generally, applications in OS X are packaged into a ".app" bundle that appears to be a single file but is actually a self-contained folder. You can try to right-click any .app file and select "Show Package Contents", you will see more files about this application.
Moreover, application like Don't Sleep: Horror Game will leave preference files (which store your preferences for each app) or support files on your Mac. They are not stored in the application bundles but in the user's library folder(~/Library/Preferences). If you ignore removing them from your Mac it means that the settings are still be there and you will get troubles when re-installing this application again later. It is not so simple to completely uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game manually by dragging it to the trash. Here we are going to discuss methods about how to remove Don't Sleep: Horror Game properly and safely. You can choose any one of the instructions to uninstall the application step by step.
It is very easy to remove Don't Sleep: Horror Game at the beginning. With the traditional method, you can remove the main component of Don't Sleep: Horror Game but you still have to find out the preference files and other associated files remain on your Mac then clean them all. Do not miss any steps as below:
: Launch Activity Monitor and change "My Processes" at the top to "All Processes". Please make sure the Don't Sleep: Horror Game has been terminated already. If the application is running currently, click on it or any other process of it then click "Quit Process".
Of course, you also can press "Command+Option+Esc" on your keyboard to close down the application. Click on the Don't Sleep: Horror Game and then click the "Force Quit"button. You would receive message asking if you want to force quit the application, please just confirm it.
: 1> Click "Applications"option to enter the application folders on your Mac.
2>Just move Don't Sleep: Horror Game app from "Applications" folder to the Trash.
3> Empty the Trash to remove the main files of Don't Sleep: Horror Game from the Mac.
Another method for removing Don't Sleep: Horror Game is to use the launchpad. Launchpad will help you remove applications easily. Just follow the steps as below:
Click its Dock icon, using the trackpad gesture, or searching for it in Spotlight to open launchpad.
Click and hold Don't Sleep: Horror Game icon until it start shaking.

To uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game completely, you should clean up its leftovers and junk files. This can help you release more drive space for your Mac and avoid any potential installation problems in the future. Remember that it is very necessary for you to delete traces, additional files and leftovers after you uninstall applications manually on your Mac every time. Please continue reading to remove the associated files of Don't Sleep: Horror Game.
There numerous type of junk files remain in the Mac system. For example, the application support files, caches, plugins, binaries, library, preferences, cashes,Dock icon, saved states and so on. They are located in different folders. If you want to uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game thoroughly you have to find them out and delete them all.
Head to the user's library folder (in OS X Lion and above, hold down the Option key while selecting the "Go" menu from the Finder's menu bar and select "Library"). Navigate to Library and then detect folders named /Preferences/, /Caches/, /LaunchAgents/, /Application Supports/.
Enter preferences, caches and application support folders individually to find out any associated files of Don't Sleep: Horror Game
Move the related files to the Trash.

If you would like to manually uninstall other applications such as Swim Converter, Swim Cycle ,Swim Entries, follow the instructions above to achieve your purpose.
If you are new to the Mac OS X or not quite familiar with Mac system, we do not suggest you uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game yourself. It is very dangerous to delete any system files by mistake if you are unable to distinguish the specific application files and Mac system files. It will slow down the performance of your Mac then even crash the whole system. So remember be careful when removing files from your computer. Never touch the system files if you are not an expert for computer technology.
Here we have got an easier way for you to uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game automatically and completely. You don't need to search all over the Mac and find out the additional files of the application one by one. Just with a few of clicks, you can easily remove any applications including most of the Mac games. An award-winning uninstaller utility will scan and display all folders of the application. Just select the unwanted application and click "Remove"button, you can uninstall it immediately and completely. Furthermore, uninstaller utility also will enhance the Mac performance by deleting useless and invalid application files especially the large files which occupy too much system space. Now, let's see how to uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game with uninstaller utility very quickly. It can truly be as easy as 1-2-3.
Free Download the uninstaller utility and install it on the Mac. Moreover, you need to drag its Icon that appears in the application folder to the Dock.

Click on "Remove" button to completely uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game
Well done! Now Don't Sleep: Horror Game has been removed from your Mac successfully and safely.
Although there are all available for removing Don't Sleep: Horror Game on the Mac, I also would like to share some common senses and knowledge between these two methods, and I have to say that people often encounter more problems when chose to remove a program like uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game in the manual way, such as cannot find out all of associated files in the Library, delete a wrong file which is actually indispensable for the OS X or other installed applications, or cannot perform the manual removal smoothly. In conclusion, many potential problems would be contained in the manual removal, so it is not a 100% guarantee for getting rid of the application on your Mac. On the other hand, the automated way will be more effective and much safer in removing the program, such as:
See? These are all the advantages of removing a program in the automated way, if you want to perform a sophisticated removal to uninstall Don't Sleep: Horror Game, just applying the automated removal method to remove it.

Katy Perry Talks Exes, Dating and Sex Life in New Cosmo Interview
In July, Katy Perry will have the honor of being Cosmopolitan's first global cover girl. Perry will grace the covers of Cosmo around the world, including Australia, Singapore, Vietnam, Germany, UK and more.
Perry is interviewed by talk show host and comedian Chelsea Handler for the magazine, and Perry opens up about her exes, dating and her sex life.
Perry tells Cosmo (courtesy of E! Online), that in regards to her marriage with Russell Brand, she's since matured after that relationship ended. "Sometimes you have to go through all this s–t to get your grips on life and figure out what the next boundaries in your love life are going to be," she says. "You have to go through the mud in order to find that peaceful place. In the long run, it was necessary for me to have more of a teammate."
Regarding her most recent breakup with singer-songwriter John Mayer, Perry hints that she will be singing about that one through new songs. "I have a lot of respect for [John] still, and I know it goes both ways. There's no bad blood, but I'm sure there will be inspired songs." (Mayer has already responded, saying, "You're supposed to write songs. You're just not supposed to tell everyone you're doing it.")
Handler then asked Perry what's the longest she gone without sex. Her response? "Maybe six months or a year. I don't stay single for long."
For more on Perry's interview with Handler, pick up the July issue of Cosmopolitan.

So wrote Albert Einstein in a letter to his one time collaborator, the mathematician Marcel Grossmann in 1920.
Jeroen van Dongen of the Institute for History and Foundations of Science at Utrecht University in Holland, writing in a recent edition of the journal, 'Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics,' describes the effectiveness of the movement that grew up to oppose Einstein's theory. There are some striking parallels with today's climate debate.
At a time when The Guardian just reported another poll showing a drop in concern about climate change, and a New York Times front page this week described Britons' growing doubts about the science, its worth taking a look at that anti-science campaign, which was waged by Einstein's critics because like today's climate denial movement, the anti-relativity movement had some success too.

A 'Land' of plenty for writer/actor Matt Damon
NEW YORK – If you want to collaborate with Matt Damon, you'll need to be of a certain stature.
"I only write with tall people," says Damon.
He's only sort-of kidding. Damon's first foray into celluloid partnership was with his lanky buddy Ben Affleck, and the product was the 1997 breakthrough hit Good Will Hunting, which garnered the then-newcomers a screenwriting Oscar and global acclaim. And on Friday, Damon again teams up with a lofty scribe, John Krasinski, in the drama Promised Land.
The two actors co-wrote the film, which opened wide Friday, and play the leads. Damon's Steve is a myopic energy executive who travels to small towns to buy fracking drilling rights from the local residents, and Krasinski's Dustin is a slick environmentalist who tries to block him. In Damon's everyman hands, Steve is an earnest politician and fervent believer that he's selling financial freedom to destitute people hungry for it, pollution be damned.
"I hadn't been able to play that part before. So we wrote it," says Damon, 42.
The project came together thanks to the actors' wives, Lucy and Emily Blunt, who became close when Blunt and Damon were filming together.
"Matt was working on The Adjustment Bureau with Emily. We got to know each other and quickly became good friends. We did a whole lot of double-dating with Matt and (his wife) Lucy and we got along really well. Matt had mentioned that he wanted to direct and asked me if I was working on anything. I told him about this. And we started writing pretty much right away," says Krasinski. "I'm sure there was a camaraderie built in with both of us being from Boston."
Initially, Damon was hoping to go behind the camera. But once he and Krasinski sat down together and fleshed out the idea of using the larger issue of fracking as the foundation of the film, the lure of script-writing was fairly irresistible.
"John and I took it and we started on it. It was a really seamless thing. It was easy to write with John and really fun. I'd forgotten that. I'd written – there's writing on every movie, even if it's not a screenwriter sending me their Word document and I start tinkering. It's writing in the manner of problem-solving. The process with John reminded me how much I love writing and how much I love sitting down and building something from nothing," says Damon.
His wife noticed, as well. "Lucy said to me in the middle of the whole thing, 'No matter what happens with this movie, I haven't seen you this happy.' And I realized that she was right," says Damon.
Like Affleck, who's this year's awards season darling for the Iran hostage drama Argo, Damon says he understands the visceral power and lure of crafting and telling your own story.
"With Good Will Hunting, the feeling of real connection was so deep. Every movie feels like a birth. You put a whole year of your life into it. You care about it and love it. To work on something at this level, it's an even deeper feeling of connection," says Damon. "I know it's what Ben is going through with directing. The feeling of authorship and ownership is more intense."
To be more active off-screen, Damon and Affleck operate a production company, Pearl Street, based in Los Angeles. It's the main reason Damon is decamping from his long-time Manhattan homebase later this year and relocating west with his brood: daughters Alexia, 14, from Lucy's first marriage, Isabella, 6, Gia, 4, and Stella, 2.
"It's going to be better for our company, for me and Ben. And we looked for a place here for four years. People have an over-inflated idea of what their place is worth," says Damon. "We were just looking for a place to raise the kids. That precipitated the move to LA. We went there to look for schools. We love our school here."
And here, he loves his almost singular ability to live as normal a life as possible. Damon has lunch with his family. He goes to playgrounds and drops his kids off at school. And no one looks twice, enabling him to pretend that he's not actually famous. "It doesn't feel like that. It was worse downtown. That was a beehive. Where we are now, I live under the illusion that no one has ever seen a movie," he says. "It's really nice."
This year is shaping up to another busy one for Damon; this spring, he's shooting the World War II movie The Monuments Men, directed by George Clooney and co-starring Daniel Craig and Cate Blanchett. It's yet another blue-chip project for Damon, who is admittedly particular about his choices.
"When you do something, you're also making the decision to not do something else, which is to stay home with your kids and your wife. My wife and I were talking about it this morning. A big part of who I am is my work. But it's like finding that balance. I don't want to stop working. But I don't want to work too much and be away. There's always some kind of tradeoff," says Damon. "When I'm working, I should really be working and when I'm home, I should really be home."

Delaney to form group to fight human trafficking in NH
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) � New Hampshire Attorney General Michael Delaney is forming a commission to combat human trafficking and modern-day slavery in the state.
The commission is being created in commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation.
The U.S. Department of Justice estimates that 200,000 American children are potentially trafficked each year into the sex trade.
Delaney is holding a news conference at 11 a.m. Thursday at his Concord office. He says the commission would identify victims of human trafficking and develop protocols on handling the cases.

About a year ago, a journalist asked me: "The current crisis; you could see it as the failure of corporate governance in general, and boards of directors in specific. What radical new ideas do we see coming out of business schools in terms of how we could organise governance and boards better?"
I answered him what I thought was the truth: "Ehm…. not much really".
Last week, I was in Prague, for the Annual Meeting of the Strategic Management Society; a bunch of business school professors talking about their research. I attended a session which featured a panel of five senior professors who specialise in governance and boards. I couldn't resist asking them the same question as the journalist had posed to me: "What radical new ideas do you have in terms of how we could perhaps organise governance and boards better?"
Their answer was basically the same as mine, with equal levels of eloquence: "Ehm… not much really".
In fact, after a slightly stunned silence, one professor replied to me: "What do you think?" (the reply every professor gives to a student when s/he does not have an answer available), where the second one answered "boards is not really where the action is". And that was that.
Somehow, I have to admit, I did not expect a real answer – just as I did not have one. And that is because business school professors seldom have an opinion. We are all trained – in our research, through rigorous PhD programmes and years of socialization – to not make assertions but to only make claims that are thoroughly proven, by solid empirics and rigorous theory. And I applaud and adhere to that; I like evidence. However, at some point, you need to take that evidence and develop an opinion. And that's where it usually stalls, in business schools.
Because people are not used to say anything without evidence, they end up saying nothing at all. That's because when it comes to questions such as "how could we organise this better?" the evidence is always going to be imperfect.
It reminded me of what a paediatric neurologist once told me: "What I do is part art; part science. I know all the scientific evidence and treatments and medication, but at the end of the day, every child and case is unique, and you have to make a choice and an develop an opinion".
In business schools, we're more likely to let the child die. Since we have no perfect evidence on what the exact treatment should be, we end up doing nothing.
Hence, that the five professors did not express an opinion did not really surprise me. But what I later realised, and what did surprise me – although I blame myself for my naivety – is that not only are you not expected to have an opinion; you're not even supposed to want to have one.
Even raising the question and asking for an opinion is considered suspect, illegitimate and un-academic. As business school academics, we describe and seek to understand reality, but are not supposed to want to alter and improve it. Which is a shame, because sometimes I feel the world of business – and the world in general – could do with a bit of improvement.
"I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion. If God lets me live, I shall not remain insignificant, I shall work in the world and for mankind! And now I know that first and foremost I shall require courage and cheerfulness!" Anne Frank, April 11, 1944

Fla.'s Nov. unemployment rate drops to 8.1 percent
Central Fla.'s unemployment rate at 7.8 percent
Florida's unemployment rate has dropped to its lowest level in four years.
State officials said on Friday that the November rate was 8.1 percent. That's down by 0.4 percentage point from October. And it's the lowest rate since November 2008, when Florida had 7.8 percent jobless rate.
That still left 760,000 Floridians out of work and the state's rate again topped the national figure, which was 7.7 percent for November.
Florida, though, has been steadily closing the gap in recent months.
In central Florida, the unemployment rate for counties including Lake, Orange, Osceola, Seminole and Sumter was 7.8 percent in November which is the lowest since Dec. 2008.
Out of a labor force of 1,175,817, there were 91,569 unemployed residents in the five county region.
In Volusia and Flagler counties the unemployment rate was 8.7 percent during the same time period.
Out of a labor force of 286,002, there were 24,759 unemployed residents in the Volusia and Flagler region.
That's been good news for Gov. Rick Scott, who has made job creation the hallmark of his administration.
Scott hailed the jobless report for giving more Floridians a paycheck for the holidays.
Polls, though, show the Republican governor's job approval rate still lagging below the 40 percent level.

Here it is my last hur·rah for the day. This tutorial will show you "how to draw a cake for kids", step by step. The cake I chose to design is a very simple, small, and exciting to recreate. When making cakes you have to keep in mind that they tend to come in all different shapes, sizes, colors, and designs. A cake for kids should be just two layers, with a huge dollop of frosting smothered on top. Even though this is a very simple concept, you should still enjoy the task of drawing a cake for kids. I do hope you enjoy this submission, I shall return to you all tomorrow with more drawing fun. Peace out and enjoy folks.

Sanchez keen to link-up with Ozil
Alexis Sanchez cannot wait to team up with Mesut Ozil and help fire Arsenal towards Premier League glory.
The Chile international on Thursday agreed to sign for the Gunners from Barcelona, in a deal reported to be worth in the region of £30million.
Sanchez - who is set for some time on holiday following his World Cup exploits, reaching the last 16 with Chile before being beaten on penalties by Brazil - believes Arsenal now have the needed quality to last the distance in the title race, having fallen away after being top at the turn of the year.
"With Ozil in the squad Arsenal was (close) to winning the league title (last season). I hope I can make a contribution so we can win as many titles as possible," Sanchez said on the club's official website, www.arsenal.com.
"The team not only plays really good football, but the squad is really good and we can win silverware.
"We have a great squad and we are a big club. We can achieve big things.
"Playing regularly wasn't the only reason why I came here - I came here to win the league title, the Champions League and every title at stake.
"I am here to win titles and to achieve as much as possible."
Closing a deal for Sanchez - who also had interest from Liverpool and Juventus - was down in no small part to the influence of Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.
The Gunners boss is understood to have spoken to the player face to face while working for French television at the World Cup in Brazil, convincing him the Emirates Stadium was the right place to further his career.
The 25-year-old attacking midfielder, said to have also taken counsel from former Arsenal captain and Barcelona team-mate Cesc Fabregas, who has signed for Chelsea, is in no doubt he will be given the perfect environment in which to flourish.
"I know this club has a manager that looks after his players and takes care of them as well," Sanchez continued.
"I was told that he is a manager you can learn a lot with. He wants to achieve great things in football and that helped me make the decision to sign for Arsenal.
"Arsene Wenger's style of play is the sort of style the Chilean national team has, so therefore I am used to it.
"Arsenal plays very well, which fits my style. That is why I moved here.
"The manager has mentioned some certain positions, but I am not worried about it right now. The manager and I will talk about my role as soon as I start training.
"Arsenal is a club that cares about the players and I can learn a lot here."
Wenger will return to Arsenal's Hertfordshire base after Sunday's World Cup final, ahead of a trip to New York at the end of the month.
Arsenal host the Emirates Cup on August 2/3, which is likely to present a debut for Sanchez, who has no doubts about being able to settle into the English game.
He said: "The most important thing is to be calm and not to rush things. Everything will be fine as long as I take it easy and calm down, But I am also looking forward to showing why I am here."
Arsenal are expected to further bolster their squad ahead of the FA Community Shield against Manchester City on August 10.
France defender Mathieu Debuchy is keen to move from Newcastle, who want to secure a replacement before closing out the £10million transfer, while Atletico Madrid right-back Javier Manquillo another reported target.
A defensive midfielder is also on Wenger's wanted list. Arsenal have been linked with Germany internationals Lars Bender and Sami Khedira.
Egypt international centre-back Ahmed Fathi has travelled to London for a trial at Arsenal, the defender's club Al Ahly confirmed.
The 29-year-old centre-back spent six months on loan at Hull during the 2012/2013 Championship campaign, and could be offered the chance of Premier League football should all go well.
Al Ahly issued a statement on their Facebook page, which read: "Ahmed Fathi is set to travel to England on Friday to undergo a trial period at Arsenal Football Club in preparation to sign him if he has a successful trial, and so Fathi will be unavailable to participate in Al Ahly's game against Smouha in the semi-final of the Egypt Cup next Monday."

Los Angeles Kings eliminate rival Anaheim Ducks 6-2 in Game 7
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Headline writers would have got an early jump on today's banners in the L.A. and Orange County papers. By the time most of the games in this Freeway Series had started, this one was over.
"Lame Ducks Quack Under Pressure" would have been appropriate in The O.C.
Or, up in the big city: "Kings Reign on Duckies' Parade."
Whatever the locals are picking up at the corner store here in Anaheim, though, it ought to be printed in red ink - as red as the faces of the Ducks, who might as well have sent 20 empty jerseys out to play Game 7 against the Los Angeles Kings.
So completely were they dominated by the big brothers of the California rivalry, the result was written in stone before the first intermission.
It could have been 5-0 by then, but three was plenty for the Kings, who won their sixth elimination game of the 2014 Stanley Cup playoffs, 6-2, with a show of muscle and hustle and savvy that seemed utterly beyond the flustered and overmatched Anaheim squad.
The Ducks who won the Pacific Division, 16 points clear of the Kings, were ghosts for the meaningful part of Friday night at Honda Center, leaving their own fans in shock and the thousands of Kings' supporters in the crowd in full-throated roar.
"I've said it multiple times, that this group that we have - the inner arrogance, or quiet confidence, whatever you want to call it - I look around and I trust that everybody's going to do his job," said winger Justin Williams, Mr. Game 7, whose goal at 4:30 of the first period began the L.A. onslaught.
"Nobody has to be great, but everybody has to be good. And we were all good tonight."
Williams slid home his own rebound - his sixth goal (and he added his sixth assist later) in six Game 7 appearances - off a tipped shot by Mike Richards.
"At the end of my career, I'll look back and be proud of it," Williams said. "The thing I'm proudest of is the 6-0 record in Game 7, and the fact that we're moving on."
First goals have been money in this series, and when the Kings got it, the Ducks seemed to lose their heads.
Four minutes later, a turnover just inside the Kings' line was moved up ice with three quick passes and Jeff Carter brushed aside Anaheim's young defenceman Hampus Lindholm to roof a backhander over the arm of rookie goalie John Gibson.
Then, shortly after Jonathan Quick stopped Ducks' Corey Perry on a penalty shot, Anaheim captain Ryan Getzlaf got out of position running at fourth-line winger Kyle Clifford, who took the hit and made the play that led to Richards' second goal of the playoffs.
Williams, Carter, Richards. All former Philadelphia Flyers. Maybe that's why former Kings assistant GM Ron Hextall is now running the show in Philly.
"Right now, it's a bitter pill to swallow, the way we lost that game. But we're going to get over it," said Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau. "First period was men against boys, quite frankly. They were bigger, stronger, faster and seemed more determined.
"We were on our heels. Everything we said we didn't want to do, we did. We get behind the 8-ball and . . . by the time we started playing well again in the second, Quick was there to make the save when they needed it."
"When you've played in the playoffs long enough, you understand that those little plays, hits, finishing checks, all those things add up over time," said Kings captain Dustin Brown. "I thought you could see it tonight on our forecheck, we were beating their defencemen quite a bit to the puck, and that's a result probably of being physical on certain guys throughout the series and wearing them down physically and mentally. You just chip away every game. The longer it goes, the harder it gets (for other team) if you're doing the right thing.''
Three goals were more than enough for Quick, but the Kings got two more anyway in the second period, from playoff scoring race leader Anze Kopitar and his sidekick, goal-scoring leader Marian Gaborik, before the Ducks' Kyle Palmieri finally squeezed one past the Kings' netminder.
By then, Gibson had been replaced by Jonas Hiller in the Anaheim goal, and the Ducks' offensive kingpins, Getzlaf and Perry, were each minus-3 on the night and full value for it. They combined for a pretty goal by Perry, four-on-four, in the third, but Tanner Pearson added one more for the Kings.
In addition to everything else, the Kings (per the Elias Sports Bureau) became the first team in major North American sports history to win consecutive playoff series despite losing three games in a row in each.
But they'll have little time to savour it. After practicing Saturday morning, they fly to Chicago and play an afternoon game Sunday to open the Western Conference final - a fairly ridiculous piece of National Hockey League scheduling, but better than not winning Game 7.
It was a bittersweet final act for Ducks' 43-year-old Teemu Selanne, whose fabulous career ended on the sourest of notes - as, probably, did that of his Finnish teammate, Saku Koivu, who looked a step slow and out of gas in Game 7.
At the final horn, Getzlaf had the puck on his stick and picked it up to give to Selanne, who was hugged and patted on the head by most of the Kings in the handshake line.
And afterwards, both teams stood on the ice for a very long time and tapped their sticks in respect for the greatest Finnish hockey player of them all.
"I coached Teemu and I know him. He's a special player and a special person and I'm glad he got to win a championship," said Kings coach Darryl Sutter. "I'm sure disappointing as it is for him to lose the series, he got to play it here and he got recognized by the crowd and that was awesome."
"That guy has been an unbelievable player in this league for so long," said Kings defenceman Drew Doughty. "Everyone respects him. I couldn't be more happy for him, he had an unbelievable career. I guess you feel bad in a way that we ended it this way."
"There's not many guys left in this league that have earned the respect and admiration of not only the fans but the players he played against," said Williams. "We would have stood out there for 20 minutes if we could.
"He has nothing to be upset about. He's an awesome player."
So the series ended as it began, with fans of both teams standing and cheering the same things: celebrating a Southern California series at the start, saluting a departing legend as the curtain came down.
For Anaheim, there wasn't much else to salvage.

Good flavor, but the 2013 description of "mush" is right! Cooked way too long before the oven-baking step. Next time I'll try the overnight soak method for the dry beans, rather than the 2-minute boil and then 1- hour standing. Might also shorten the simmer-with-onions step and check the doneness frequently. Makes such a large amount, wonder if the final result can be frozen in portions.
Jul 13, 2013
If you follow this recipe for cooking the beans, you will wind up with unrecognizable mush. Follow the directions on the package of beans instead. I substituted molasses for the the pancake syrup and the dish is still very sweet. Use a baking dish larger than 2 qts. if you don't want it to bubble over the sides. The end result is quite good.
May 22, 2013
These were soooo good! My boyfriend had thirds! I love the way the maple syrup brings a sweet taste to these beans.
Jul 6, 2012
OMG!!! These are the best. I never liked canned baked beans but did like homemade versions at potlucks. The recipe I have for baked beans is definately not low fat/cal. This one is great and even better tasting than the recipe I had been using. I used a reduced sugar pancake syrup and turkey bacon to reduce the fat/cal even more. This is my new go to recipe for baked beans. You do not miss the fat/cal with this one!!!.
Sep 15, 2009
I just made these baked barbequed lima beans for dinner and they came out fantastic! Everyone loved it. Thank You!
May 3, 2009
This is absolutely the best baked lima bean recipe! My mom always made this and it brings back enjoyable family get-togethers. As mom always made hers without a receipe, I was delighted to find this again. Jackie Morrone, Gastonia, NC

October's monthly processing begins tomorrow and will include data submitted to SAIS through 5pm this evening. For those LEAs whose schools have all reached 40th day by September 30, 2013, 40th day ADM will be calculated and available by October 11. Please check the IT Bulletin Board for updates stating the data has completed processing. Only at that time can you check your ADMS, SPED and ELL 75-1 reports and expect to see complete ADM results.
For charter schools, once 40th day ADM is calculated for your LEA, the next monthly disbursement of state aid will be based on the 40th day ADM and will no longer be based on estimated counts. For example, if all schools have reached 40th day by today, September 30, 2013, 40th day ADM will be calculated by the end of next week and your November 1 disbursement will be based on that newly calculated 40th day ADM and will not be based on the estimated counts submitted earlier in the year through the "Charter Estimated Counts" application available within Common Logon .
Please keep in mind that the date in which your LEA is eligible for your 40th day and 100th day ADM to be calculated has changed this year. It is now on the day in which all of the schools within the LEA have reached the 40th day of school and is subject to the aggregation processing schedule. Please see this HOT TOPICS posting for more information.

No alcohol, no drugs and a new bracelet -- those are the rules a judge set down for actress Lindsay Lohan during a court hearing.
Lohan arrived a few minutes late for the 8:30 a.m. PST hearing in Beverly Hills. That was an improvement from last week when she never arrived for a scheduled hearing.
Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel said Lohan could remain free on bail, but she cannot consume alcohol. She was ordered to wear an alcohol-monitoring bracelet and submit to random weekly drug testing.
Lohan avoided arrest after last week's no-show by posting $100,000 bail, but still faces the other conditions imposed by the judge.
Her attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, said the monitoring device would interfere with Lohan's work. Holley wanted the judge to consider allowing Lohan to submit to drug testing in Texas, where she is shooting a movie.
Holley asked the device not be installed yet, to "allow her also to make a living," saying the actress also has a number of upcoming photo shoots.
The judge wasn't buying it. She ordered the device -- called a SCRAM device -- be in place within 24 hours.
TMZ.com reported that the bracelet was placed on Lohan after Monday's hearing.
Revel said Lohan would need to comply with her order to have the bracelet attached and to have drug testing administered in California, suggesting the actress would need to "delay" that work.
"She needs to submit to random testing here, not in Texas," Revel said.
The judge told Lohan she could spend a half-hour listing all the reasons why she believes why Lohan needs those conditions.
Revel asked whether Lohan understood the conditions of bail as outlined by the court. Lohan answered, "Yes, your honor. Yes, I do."
Last week's scheduled hearing involved a progress report on her probation stemming from two arrests in 2007. Revel said there is probable cause to believe that Lohan violated the terms of her probation.
A hearing on whether those terms were violated was scheduled for July 6. The probation stems from Lohan crashing a 12-cylinder Mercedes-Benz on Sunset Boulevard on May 26, 2007. She also pleaded guilty to cocaine use in an arrest in Santa Monica on July 24 of that year.
Lohan had been at the Cannes Film Festival in France. She said she missed Thursday's hearing because someone had stolen her passport.
The judge asked Monday for proof that Lohan intended to attend the hearing. Holley said she has proof -- airline tickets dated May 19.
Lohan landed at Los Angeles International Airport Saturday night and avoided most of the paparazzi who were awaiting her arrival

As it was published, I had read Kevin Hartnett's article and interview with Christoph Adami The Information Theory of Life in Quanta Magazine. I recently revisited it and read through the commentary and stumbled upon an interesting quote relating to the history of information in biology:
These two historical references predate Claude Shannon's mathematical formalization of information in A Mathematical Theory of Communication (The Bell System Technical Journal, 1948) and even Erwin Schrödinger's lecture (1943) and subsequent book What is Life (1944).
For those interested in reading more on this historical tidbit, I've dug up a copy of the primary Forsdyke reference which first appeared on arXiv (prior to its ultimate publication in History of Psychiatry [.pdf]):
🔖 [1406.1391] 'A Vehicle of Symbols and Nothing More.' George Romanes, Theory of Mind, Information, and Samuel Butler by Donald R. Forsdyke [1]
Submitted on 4 Jun 2014 (v1), last revised 13 Nov 2014 (this version, v2)
Abstract: Today's 'theory of mind' (ToM) concept is rooted in the distinction of nineteenth century philosopher William Clifford between 'objects' that can be directly perceived, and 'ejects,' such as the mind of another person, which are inferred from one's subjective knowledge of one's own mind. A founder, with Charles Darwin, of the discipline of comparative psychology, George Romanes considered the minds of animals as ejects, an idea that could be generalized to 'society as eject' and, ultimately, 'the world as an eject' – mind in the universe. Yet, Romanes and Clifford only vaguely connected mind with the abstraction we call 'information,' which needs 'a vehicle of symbols' – a material transporting medium. However, Samuel Butler was able to address, in informational terms depleted of theological trappings, both organic evolution and mind in the universe. This view harmonizes with insights arising from modern DNA research, the relative immortality of 'selfish' genes, and some startling recent developments in brain research.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Cancer doctors often refer their patients to palliative care very late in the course of disease, according to a new survey from Canada.
About a third of oncologists said they refer patients to palliative care, or hospice, when they diagnose a cancer that has spread and therefore usually is incurable.
Another third, however, said they wait until chemotherapy has been stopped, which is often just a few months or even weeks away from death.
"All palliative specialists believe that palliative care should be involved early," said Dr. Camilla Zimmermann of Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, who led the study with funding from the Canadian Cancer Society.
"Despite that and despite guidelines to refer early, many studies have shown that palliative still happens too late, in the last few months of life."
Rather than providing aggressive medical treatments, palliative care focuses on improving a person's well-being by offering pain management as well as psychological, social and sometimes spiritual care.
"It is basically team-based whole-person care," Zimmermann told Reuters Health. "The take-home message for me is that the palliative care specialists and oncologists need to work more in collaboration."
The new findings, published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, are based on a survey of 603 physicians. Most of the doctors did have palliative services available to them, although some were more comprehensive than others.
In the U.S., the picture might be different. A previous survey found six out of 10 National Cancer Institute-designated centers had access to palliative clinics, whereas less than a fourth of cancer centers that didn't carry that designation had such access.
There are also differences in the insurance coverage of hospice between the U.S. and Canada. Zimmermann said patients in the U.S. cannot receive hospice benefits if they are still getting chemotherapy, which would be an obvious barrier to early referral.
However, she added, that shouldn't prevent oncologists from reaching out to palliative specialists at the hospital and make sure the transition is as smooth as possible.
"What we are trying to encourage is that everybody gets involved a bit earlier," Zimmermann told Reuters Health.

Welfare reform and the benefits system have been high on the news agenda recently, but an often overlooked issue is the persistent problem of pensioner poverty. With 1.7m pensioners (14%) currently living in poverty, and £5.5bn pounds of benefits left unclaimed by pensioners, Age UK has re-launched its Let's Talk Money campaign.
A significant amount of research highlights that there are many reasons why older people aren't claiming the benefits that they are entitled to – from a perception that the application process is too complicated, to the belief that they don't qualify.
With so many people slipping through the net, Age UK aims to challenge the myths around eligibility, and encourage older people to claim the benefits that they are entitled to so that they can make the most of later life.
The campaign continues to focus on encouraging older people to claim the benefits they are entitled to, such as Pension Credit, Housing Benefit and Attendance Allowance.
People on low incomes can use the extra money that benefits provide to pay for utility bills, broken appliances or some much needed help around the house – removing financial stress that is a burden for so many. Continue reading "Let's Talk Money"

"I can think of no living man who has done as much as Dr. Hieronimus to investigate and promulgate the mysteries surrounding the secret founding of the United States of America. Besides offering a good read, Founding Fathers, Secret Societies, proves to be more than a revelation of the spiritual vision behind the founding of a new nation. In Founding Fathers, Secret Societies, Hieronimus has set a standard which cannot fail to contribute to the perpetual re-making of that ashlar corner-stone upon which the American experiment has been, is being, and will be built as the Novus Ordo Seclorum unfolds."
~DAVID OVASON, author of
"Founding Fathers, Secret Societies is that rare thing -- a really excellent, thoroughly researched and beautifully written book. I learned something new on every page."
~GRAHAM HANCOCK, author of Fingerprints of the Gods
"Dr. Bob has written the ultimate book about the secrets of our Founding Fathers. It is, fairly simply, the best thing of its kind that has ever been written. Careful research and years of effort show in this beautiful work, as exciting and informative as it is important. It shines a welcome light into the secrets that lie behind the founding of our wonderful country."
~WHITLEY STRIEBER, author of Communion and The Secret School
"I've been fascinated by the subject of our Founding Fathers and the Great Seal for some time. Who were all these extraordinary individuals: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and we can't forget Thomas Paine? What were they really doing, and what was their vision for this nation? What Robert Hieronimus has to say on this topic is very important especially in light of what's going on in the world today. Fantastic book."
~SHIRLEY MACLAINE, actress and author of
"Robert Hieronimus's historical analysis could not come at a more crucial time. The United States has reached a critical point in its history, one which will not only affect its destiny but that of the rest of the world. Dr. Hieronimus has made an in-depth analysis of the founders of the United States, starting with the League of Iroquois and the European esoteric societies proceeding to the impact of Masonic symbolism and the creation of the Great Seal, especially the images on its reverse side. Dr. Hieronimus delivers an inspiring message of hope for a culture that is badly torn, a culture critically in need of the renewed vision described in this remarkable book."
~STANLEY KRIPPNER, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Saybrook Graduate School,
"A vision that can unite, guide and inspire us is increasingly possible when we know more of the rich history and vision which helped us launch our country. Too much of this history has been unknown, too many facts have been hard to come by. It's a special delight to learn more of our history with someone so careful to not exaggerate sources or certainty. I am especially grateful that Robert Hieronimus is helping to restore an awareness and perspective of our own history that is so vital in these days."
~DAVID A. BURNET, Grand Councilor Emeritus, and former
"Robert Hieronimus's Founding Fathers, Secret Societies, makes an intriguing case, combining a number of historical threads to provide a new interpretation of the United States' founding. Most importantly, he starts at the beginning, with our truly American founding, notably with the Great Law of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy. This work should put to rest any remaining notions that the founding was a result of spontaneous intellectual combustion in Philadelphia's meeting room."
"Anyone turning the pages of Founding Fathers, Secret Societies opens a secret door to the lost history of our country. By exposing the hidden roots of the United States, Dr. Robert Hieronimus has restored a sense of American destiny."
~FRANK JOSEPH, author of The Lost Treasure of King Juba
"Your work delves into some very intriguing examination of topics frequently shied away from by the scholarly community. The extensive footnotes and bibliography are a joy to my heart, as a librarian, because we so often need to provide not only information and answers but also the sources of assertions that require substantiation."

All children growing up in America learn who the Founding Fathers were. Most, however, never learn of the founders' connections to the Freemasons, the Rosicrucians, and other esoteric orders. In Founding Fathers, Secret Societies, Robert Hieronimus investigates these important connections-as well as the founders' connections to the League of the Iroquois-and how the influence of these groups can be traced throughout our most significant national documents and symbols, especially the Great Seal. He reveals in detail how the reverse of the Great Seal, which appears on the back of the one-dollar bill, is a blueprint that conveys the secret destiny of America. In decoding the symbolic meaning of the Great Seal's reverse, we discover the unique opportunities our current era presents for achieving our Founding Fathers' spiritual vision.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) Kansas secondary coach Clint Bowen will take over as coach of the linebackers after DeMontie Cross decided to leave for a similar position at Big 12 rival TCU.
Jayhawks coach Charlie Weis said Friday that Bowen would switch duties.
Bowen was part of the Kansas staff even before Weis arrived prior to last season. He was the defensive coordinator in 2008, when he helped the Jayhawks to a win in the Insight Bowl.
Weis did not say when he planned to hire a new secondary coach, though defensive coordinator Dave Campo' forte is working with defensive backs.

HOW TO DETECT ILLEGAL ACTIVITY by ROBERT S. KAY Much has been said about the auditor's responsibility— often pronounced "guarantee"—for the adequacy of financial statement disclosures. This is particularly true con-cerning those transactions that are regarded as lining the wallets of insiders, to the possible detriment of share-holders and creditors. But is there also a role for the finan-cial executive with respect to these related party transac-tions now in the news? The seriousness of charges recently levied at not only independent accountants but also corporate directors and officers, including financial officers, should prompt us to evaluate what the financial executive can do—indeed, should do. The responsibility for adequate disclosure of related party transactions is not a new issue. Financial executives of publicly held companies know that information required by the SEC must be contained in SEC filings, whether or not the information is also included in the financial state-ments. It is at least debatable, therefore, whether a com-pany's financial statements are "complete" or "adequate" when they do not disclose related party transactions, even if that disclosure is elsewhere within the filing. How much information should be contained in the finan-cial statements, including the footnotes? If none, what ob-ligation is there to disclose these transactions with related parties in documents filed with regulatory authorities? Is there no guide to follow? Financial executives, you're in luck! But you may not have recognized it, because the source of your good fortune is contained in a recent Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) issued by the AICPA's Auditing Standards Executive Committee (AudSEC), It has been said that SASs are written for auditors only. Right? Wrong! Indeed, I would recommend highly that financial executives be familiar with SASs, since they guide the independent CPA who performs the audit of his company. In this instance, it is SAS 6, "Related Party Transactions,"that suggests the audit-ing standards and disclosure specifications that the finan-cial executive should be alert to. On the basis of what may not be an auditor's responsi-bility could well be a responsibility of the financial execu-tive, J will discuss here SAS 6 (effective for financial state-ments for periods ending on or after December 26,1975), and a Touche Ross Technical Letter, issued in 1974, on "Management Involvement in Material Transactions." The SAS describes steps designed to (1) identify related party transactions and (2) audit the substance of such trans-actions, including financial statement disclosures. Natural-ly, for the auditor to be satisfied in these areas, so must be the financial executive who is responsible for preparing the financial statements. Overview of SAS 6 The SAS does not apply to intercompany transactions that are eliminated when consolidated financial statements are presented. This is obvious. On the other hand, when separate financial statements of components are pre-sented, intercomponent transactions generally are not eliminated, and the provisions of SAS 6 are certainly then applicable. Who is a related party? The SAS definition includes the reporting entity, its affiliates, principal owners, manage-ment and members of their immediate families, and APB Opinion 18 investors and investees. It also covers any other party with whom the reporting entity may deal, when that party's influence extends to the ability to prevent the reporting entity from fully pursuing its own interests. In-cluded, too, are situations in which entities dealing with each other are both susceptible to influence by a third party, such as when a series of companies are subject to the owner's discretion concerning which company shall handle a particular transaction. Note that even though some transactions are not given accounting recognition, they are nonetheless related party transactions. For example, a parent company may provide services to a subsidiary without charge. Excluded from related party transactions are situations in which a company is economically dependent on one or more parties with which it does a significant amount of business—such as a supplier, franchiser, distributor, general agent, borrower, or lender. While these parties are not related parties—there is not a significant management or ownership influence—disclosure of economic depen-dency may be necessary in the financial statements. The cardinal rule in SAS 6 is that "established accounting 7

Ferrari California Experience for 50 deserving children at Silverstone
Silverstone – On the 4th May 2010 some of the UK's most deserving children received a very special treat courtesy of Ferrari North Europe, in partnership with the British Racing Drivers' Club. 50 youngsters were taken around the iconic Silverstone Circuit in a fleet of Ferrari California sports cars, chauffeured by professional drivers and talented young members of the BRDC's 'SuperStars' scheme. Also taking the wheel were Fifth Gear presenter Jason Plato and Pink Floyd drummer and noted Ferrari enthusiast, Nick Mason.
Also in attendance was a very special guest from Italy – Ferrari driver Marc Gené who spent time talking to the children about their favourite Ferraris and what it's like to be a Formula One driver. The children were all nominated by two charities, Starlight, which brightens the lives of seriously and terminally ill children by granting their wishes, and the UK automotive industry charity, BEN.
Aged from six to 16, the children had journeyed from all parts of the UK to attend the Ferrari California experience and each had a different story to tell. Some are bravely battling illness; others have devoted themselves to caring for family members. All were united in enjoying an incredible day that left a lasting impression on all who attended. Whilst each child was treated to a 15-minute passenger ride, their families were given unique access to the exclusive BRDC Clubhouse, which is decorated with evocative images of racing cars and memorabilia charting Silverstone's illustrious history.
A different kind of driving experience was on offer thanks to a giant Hot Wheels track which entertained children throughout the morning, while children also had the chance to get creative and graffiti their own Ferrari California on a YrWall, the world's first digital graffiti wall. Meanwhile acclaimed contemporary artist Ian Cook was busy outside using remote control cars to create a picture of a Ferrari California, with some of the children also helping him paint the car by remote control cars!
Among those enjoying the day was 7-year-old Drew James from Swanley in Kent. Said his mother, Debbie: "Drew has been really sick with acute myeloid leukaemia and has fought hard for his life. He lost his hair during his treatment and of course there have been lots of tears along the way. We were blown away by everything that was done for us today. The effect it has had on Drew is immeasurable. As we left he told me "That was awesome!" and it really was. On behalf of all the children, we can't thank Ferrari, Starlight and everyone else concerned enough."
