Musashi katanas are authentic duplicates of the samurai sword used in season one and two* of the TV series. These swords are built in the U.S. using selected blades and sayas, tsubas custom made to original specs and kevlar/carbon fiber fully reinforced handles. Only highest quality materials and high carbon steel blades are used throughout. No corners have been cut in the building of these swords.
The carbon steel blades are designed to take the punishment of martial arts use. Field proven for over 11 years, the kevlar/carbon fiber reinforced handles are guaranteed to be the toughest ever produced for a replica sword.
The combination produces a unique samurai katana which is both collectible and fully functional. Musashis are authentic reproductions of the original prop, with a much higher level of fit and finish than a prop sword. All Musashis are numbered and are supplied with a certificate of authenticity. Musashi katanas are exclusive to Point Gallery and are not sold wholesale for marketing by other suppliers.
*The first season was filmed in British Columbia, Canada. Halfway through the second season the production moved to France. At that time a deal was made with Marto of Spain to produce a commercial "licensed" version. In the episode "War Monger" , late in the second season, the newly designed sword (marketed as "The Sword of the Dragon") actually appeared on screen for the first time.

Denagard is used to treat Mycoplasma disease in chickens and turkeys and swine dysentery in pigs.
Denagard 12.5% Oral Solution is a pale yellow aqueous concentration solution containing 125 mg tiamulin hydrogen fumarate per ml and which contains methy parahydroxybenzoate and propyl parahydroxybenzoate as preservatives.
The following organisms show sensitivity to tiamulin hydrogen fumarate in vitro:
Brachyspira: Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, Brachyspira pilosicoli
Mycoplasmas: Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, M.hyorhinis, M. hyosynoviae, Ureaplasma spp. M. gallisepticum, M. synoviae and M. meleagridis
Gram-positive: Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., Arcanobacterium pyogenes
Gram-negative: Pasteurella spp., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Actinobacillus (Haemophilus) spp., Flusobacterium necrophorum, Bacteroides spp., Campylobacter coli, Lawsonia intracellularis
Pigs: For the treatment, prevention and control of swine dysentery caused by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and complicated by Fusobacterium spp. and Bacteroides spp.
Chickens: For the reduction in the severity of disease caused by mycoplasmas.
Turkeys: For the reduction in the severity of disease caused by mycoplasmas.
Pigs: The dosage is 8.8 mg of the active substance per kg bodyweight daily, (equivalent to 10 ml Denagard 12.5% Oral Solution per 142 kg bodyweight) administered in the drinking water of pigs for 3 to 5 days, depending on the severity of the infection and/or the duration of the disease.
The contents of each 1 litre bottle will treat 188 pigs of 25 kg bodyweight for three days or 114 pigs of 25 kg bodyweight for 5 days.
To ensure an intake of 8.8 mg/kg daily, Denagard 12.5% Oral Solution may be administered in one of two ways.
1.Administer in approximately one half of the daily water requirements, to ensure consumption of the correct dose. Unmedicated water should be provided each day after the medicated water has been consumed. The dosage rate, calculated on a liveweight basis, is equivalent to 10 ml solution per 142 kg bodyweight
2.Administer continuously at a level of 60 ppm of active substance in the drinking water, as the only source of drinking water. The daily requirement should be added to the drinking water at the rate of 9.6 ml solution per 20 litres (4.5 gallons) of water.
Where a water medicator is used the appropriate stock solution should be made up according to the maker's instructions. If there is no response to treatment within 5 days, the diagnosis should be re-established.
Chickens: The dosage for chickens is 25 mg of active substance per kg bodyweight (equivalent to 100 ml of product per 500 kg bodyweight). Tiamulin should be administered continuously at a level of 0.025% (250 ppm) in drinking water (2 ml product per litre of water) for 3 – 5 days and will provide approximately the following daily dosage of tiamulin depending on the age of the bird:
Day old chick: 125 – 150 mg/kg bodyweight
4 week old broiler: 30 – 50 mg/kg bodyweight
10 week old pullet: 30 – 45 mg/kg bodyweight
Layer: 25 mg/kg bodyweight
Turkeys: The dosage for turkeys is 25 mg of active substance per kg bodyweight (equivalent to 100 ml of product per 500 kg bodyweight). Tiamulin should be administered continuously at a level of 0.025% (250 ppm) tiamulin in the drinking water (2 ml product per litre of water) for 5 days and will provide approximately the following daily dosage of tiamulin depending on the age of the bird:
1 week old poult: 70 mg/kg bodyweight
4 week old poult: 50 mg/kg bodyweight
8 week old poult: 20 – 30 mg/kg bodyweight
20 week old poult: 25 mg/kg bodyweight
Monitor water intake at frequent intervals during medication.
Fresh solutions of tiamulin-medicated drinking water should be made up each day.
Pigs: 2 days
Chickens: 2 days
Eggs: Zero
Turkeys: 5 days
Do not use in animals hypersensitive to the active ingredient.
Animals and birds should not receive products containing monensin, narasin or salinomycin during or for at least seven days before or after treatment. Severe growth depression or death may result.
Concomitant use of tiamulin and the ionophore anticoccidial maduramicin may lead to a mild to moderate growth depression in chickens. The situation is transient and recovery normally occurs within 3 – 5 days following withdrawal of tiamulin treatment. This does not seem to occur with the ionophores lasalocid or semduramicin.
In order to avoid interactions between tiamulin and the incompatible ionophores monensin, narasin and salinomycin, the feed mill supplying the feed should be notified that tiamulin will be used and that these products should not be included in the feed or contaminate the feed.
The feed should be tested for the ionophores prior to use if there is any suspicion that contamination of the feed might occur. If an interaction does occur, stop tiamulin water medication immediately and replace with fresh water. Remove contaminated feed as soon as possible and replace with feed not containing the tiamulin-incompatible ionophores.
When mixing, direct contact with the skin and eyes should be avoided by wearing impermeable rubber gloves and safety glasses. In case of accidental eye contact, irrigate the eyes thoroughly with clean running water immediately. Seek medical advice if irritation persists. Contaminated clothing should be removed and any splashes on the skin should be washed off immediately. Wash hands after use.
Denagard can be used in pregnant and lactating pigs.
Tiamulin may be used in laying and breeding birds as it has been shown to have no adverse effects on egg production, fertility and hatchability in chickens and turkeys.
For use in the drinking water of pigs, chickens and turkeys only.
If there is no response to treatment within five days, the diagnosis should be re-established.
Severely affected pigs that do not drink should be treated with Denagard 200 Solution for Injection.
On rare occasions erythema or mild oedema of the skin may occur in pigs following the use of tiamulin hydrogen fumarate.
Water intake may be depressed during the administration of tiamulin to birds. It appears to be concentration dependent with 0.025% (250 ppm) tiamulin reducing intake by approximately 15%. It does not appear to have any adverse effect on overall performance of the birds or efficacy of the product.
There is a relatively high therapeutic index with tiamulin and the likelihood of an overdosage is considered remote, especially as water intake and hence tiamulin intake is reduced if abnormally high concentrations are given. The LD5 for chickens is 1290 mg/kg bodyweight and for turkeys 840 mg/kg bodyweight.
The clinical signs of toxicity in chickens are: vocalization, clonic cramps and lying in a lateral position. Symptoms in turkeys are: clonic cramps, lateral or dorsal position, salivation and ptosis.
If signs of intoxication do occur, promptly remove the medicated water and replace with fresh water.
For animal treatment only.
Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
Do not store above 25°C. Fresh medicated water must be prepared every 24 hours. Watering equipment should be thoroughly cleaned prior to addition of Denagard 12.5% Oral Solution.

Iranians Warn of Larger Protests
Published 8:00 pm, Monday, June 16, 2003
Associated Press Writer
Police and pro-clerical militants attacked anti-government demonstrators in a town outside the capital Tuesday, and reformers warned that new, stronger protests will erupt if Iran's Islamic rulers ignore the people's demands.
The capital Tehran and other cities saw wild clashes last week as pro-government forces put down student-led protests demanding an end to clerical rule. Those protests have largely died down in the past few days.
About 300 people demonstrated in an eastern neighborhood of Tehran on Tuesday. But they dispersed after anti-riot police and militants gathered.
In Gohardasht, about 25 miles to the west, some 700 demonstrators were attacked by anti-riot police and militants, a witness said.
"Fierce clashes are going on here. Around 400 anti-riot police and vigilantes are beating up protesters and taking them away in buses," the witness said on condition of anonymity.
Last week's protests, the largest in months, began with students demonstrating against plans to privatize universities and snowballed into broader displays of opposition to Iran's clerical establishment, led by supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The protests largely stopped after a large security deployment and the unleashing of hard-line thugs to attack the protesters.
The Bush administration _ whose comments in support of the protests have angered Iranian officials _ condemned the crackdown.
"We're alarmed about the reports about the arrests and the provocations that the Iranian regime has taken against the protesters," White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said.
Secretary of State Colin Powell said Tuesday the Iranian people were dissatisfied. "We are not out there inside Iran fomenting them," Powell said. "But if people wish to demonstrate peacefully and demonstrate for their rights and a better life, that seems to us a proper thing to do."
The Iranian government has accused Washington of interfering in its internal affairs _ and some opponents of the regime also say the U.S. comments don't help their cause.
Reformist lawmaker Fatemeh Haqiqatjou said she and 200 other reformists signed a statement Tuesday against the U.S. comments. "Iranians want change and that change has to be brought by Iranians themselves, not foreigners," she said. "America's involvement only undermines the slow pace of reforms in Iran."
But she and other reformers said protests would likely erupt again unless the hard-line clerics agree to democratic change.
"Bigger and stronger protests are unavoidable if the political leadership continues to ignore demands that the Iranian people have voted in many elections," said university professor Fayaz Zahed.
Haqiqatjou said the protests meant Iranians are losing hope of getting their demands implemented peacefully through reform politicians, who have swept elections since 1997 and control parliament and the presidency.
"Unelected hard-liners have kept undermining the process," she told The Associated Press. "That has led to growing public disillusionment with the ruling establishment."
"Nobody organized the protests," she said. "It was a genuine development that may turn into louder voices in the future."
Khamenei has the last word in all affairs in Iran, and hard-line clerics control unelected bodies, the military and security forces and the judiciary.

What does khan mean?
Definitions for khankɑn, kæn
Here are all the possible meanings and translations of the word khan.
Princeton's WordNet
a title given to rulers or other important people in Asian countries
caravansary, caravanserai, khan, caravan inn(noun)
an inn in some eastern countries with a large courtyard that provides accommodation for caravans
of origin used extensively among Muslims of South Asia.
derived from the given name.
Origin: From Persian خانه (xâne) which means house.
Webster Dictionary
a king; a prince; a chief; a governor; -- so called among the Tartars, Turks, and Persians, and in countries now or formerly governed by them
an Eastern inn or caravansary
Origin: [Pers. & Tart. khn.]
Kaan/Khan/ Kahn / Kagan is an originally Mongol and subsequently Central Asian title for a sovereign or military ruler, widely used by medieval nomadic Turko-Mongol tribes living to the north of China. "Khan" is also seen as a title in the Xianbei confederation for their chief between 283 and 289. The Rourans were the first people who used the titles Khagan and Khan for their emperors, replacing the Chanyu of the Xiongnu, whom Grousset and others assume to be Turkic. It was subsequently adopted by the Ashina before the Göktürks and the Mongols brought it to the rest of Asia. In the middle of the sixth century it was known as "Kagan – King of the Turks" to the Persians. It now has many equivalent meanings such as commander, leader, or ruler. Presently Khans exist in South Asia, Central Asia, Eastern Europe and Turkey. The female alternatives are Khatun and Khanum, These titles or names are sometimes written as Han, Kan, Hakan, Hanum, or Hatun, "xan", "xanım". Various Mongolic and Turkic peoples from Central Asia had given the title new prominence after the Mongol rule throughout the Old World and later brought the title "Khan" into Northern Asia. which later was adopted by locals in the country as a title. Khagan is rendered as Khan of Khans and was the title of Genghis Khan and the persons who are elected to rule the Mongol Empire. For instance Möngke Khan and Ogedei Khan would be "Khagans," but not Chagatai Khan who was not proclaimed ruler of the Mongol Empire by the kurultai.
Chambers 20th Century Dictionary
kan, n. an Eastern inn, a caravansary. [Turk.,—Pers. khāna, a house, a tent.]
kan, n. in North Asia, a prince or chief: in Persia, a governor.—n. Khan′ate, the dominion or jurisdiction of a khan. [Pers. khān, lord or prince, a Tartar word.]
The Nuttall Encyclopedia
the title of a Tartar sovereign or prince; also an Eastern inn or caravansary.

SIKKIM, India - It isn't easy to get here.
The ride from Bagdogra Airport in West Bengal to Gangtok, the capital of the neighboring state of Sikkim, threads through hectic towns, along crowded roads, then through dark forests.
From there the route follows the expansive Teesta River. Sharp mountains loom, foothills of the Himalayas. After hours on the bumpy, climbing, serpentine roads that pass through small villages, the traveler is rewarded with Gangtok. The night I first encountered this remote city, it almost seemed an illusion, a splash of light in the darkness.
This is Sikkim, one of India's frontiers with China and a popular tourist destination. It was an independent kingdom until 1975, when it became part of India. Fewer people live in Sikkim than in any other Indian state. Sticking upwards like a tiny thumb, Sikkim is at a crossroads: China to the north and east, Nepal to the west, and Bhutan to the southeast. Its unique location and rugged Himalayan beauty make it a striking place to visit, a place whose isolation is its own reward.
Though Sikkim has been part of India for more than 30 years, it feels like its own country. While I was there last December, more than one Sikkimese described visitors from other parts of India as foreigners. Another, when asked how he felt about Sikkim's unification with India, laughed and said that it was better to have been taken by India than by China. (Sikkim became an Indian state in 1975. It was an independent protectorate before then, and for years eyed by China as a part of Tibet, which it had claimed. Sikkim had been governed by a treaty that put its foreign relations and military in India's hands.)
An adventure in Sikkim is best begun in Gangtok (altitude 5,500 feet), a thriving city of more than 50,000 people. The Lepchas were this region's first settlers, and Gangtok, in the Lepcha language, means "hilltop." The city spills over the steep terrain and seems to have only two directions: up and down. Its potholed, steep streets switchback tightly, and small alleys climb snugly between buildings.
I was joined there by my friend Andrew Mahlstedt, an American teacher living in India at the time. After exploring Gangtok, we booked a day trip through a local tour operator to Tsomgo Lake, which sits at 12,400 feet in a mountainous basin only about 11 miles from Tibet. The ride there follows a narrow road etched precariously into the snowy mountainsides, and we shared the asphalt with lumbering Indian Army trucks, the wheels wrapped in jingling chains.
When we arrived, we found the lake partly frozen, and the surrounding peaks obscured by clouds; only their snowy, rocky flanks were visible.
Despite the state's strategic importance, it is safe and stable, and the reopening last year of Nathu La, a pass closed in 1962 after the Sino-Indian War, is a good sign. Indeed, there is a sense of peace here.
While making our way through the outskirts of Gangtok one evening, a young man called out, inviting us to join him by the fire. We squatted beside the flames and chatted with him and his family. His eagerness to share the fire was emblematic of the kindness we encountered throughout the state.
Many people stop in Gangtok to organize a trek in the Himalayas, and so did we, making plans to explore the foothills of Mount Kanchenjunga, in west Sikkim and glimpse the world's third-highest mountain.
To begin, we took a shared jeep ride that stopped to pick people up as we descended the winding roads from the capital. The landscape grew more lush as we lost altitude, passing fields and green groves of bamboo.
After a day of jostling travel, we arrived in Yuksom (altitude about 5,800 feet). The next day, we walked into Kanchenjunga National Park, with Sudan, our guide, and his friend Sandeep, a porter and cook.
We explored the park for four days, beginning by following a trail that climbed through clouded forests and across suspension bridges strung with Tibetan prayer flags. Eventually we made it to the Tibetan settlement of Tsoka, whose few residents had moved down to Yuksom for the winter.
The next morning we labored up the snow-covered trail along a ridgeline, breaking free of the fog that lingered in the valleys below. The sun shone brightly, the snow beneath our feet melted, and ice fell from the giant moss-covered pines and rhododendrons along the trail. It felt as if spring had come to the Himalayas.
We pushed higher, and the snowy peaks came into full view above Dzongri, a gathering of trekkers' huts at around 13,000 feet. In the morning light I hiked with Sudan to the crest of a ridge graced with prayer flags and overlooking a great valley.
To the west, the Singalila Ridge marked the border with Nepal. And there in the distance, its summit reaching over 28,000 feet, was Kanchenjunga.
We spent our last night in the tiny settlement of Bakhim. It was the off-season, and we were the only people there besides a caretaker, whom we joined in his hut. Inside, we gathered by a clay stove in the corner, which was heated by a small fire.
In the morning we started the long descent back to Yuksom, and from there caught another jeep back down to the plains. The next day we would fly to New Delhi, leaving behind a place that still seemed like a remote kingdom.

Dry the pellet in a vacuum centrifuge (This will save your sample being sucked out) completely and then dissolve it in buffer. Also as another one pointed large amount of undigested high molecular weight DNA may also cause this problem due to less density and the problem is worse when trying to run High MW DNA just after precipitation.

I am an attorney admitted in New York. I, thankfully, passed the Bar Exam on the first attempt. I practiced law for more than fifteen years, and am now teaching undergraduate courses in law at Fresno State University. For more than fifteen years, I practiced law in New York City. Perhaps the most important role I played for my clients was that of an advisor, educating them how the law applied to particular factual situations. Taking abstract legal concepts, and breaking them down into terms understandable to a layperson was critical to my practice. In addition, explaining complicated fact [more]

I graduated from UC Berkeley School of Law. Berkeley is a top 10 law school. I am a California attorney who passed the California bar exam on my first try.

My approach is to holistically examine each student and provide a comprehensive and guided plan for them to study for the exam. Hi! I am a passionate tutor with qualifications including: a UC Berkeley Law degree (J.D.), a 4.0 weighted undergrad GPA (Summa Cum Laude) from UCSB, an award from Xerox for innovation [more]

The California Bar Exam is one of the hardest, if not thee hardest in the country. The CA Bar is not just a test of knowledge, it's also a test of strategy and skills. When I took the CA bar in July 2014 and passed, only 48.6% of Californians passed. In July 2015, the pass rate was even lower. The ABA is making the tests more difficult to reduce the number of lawyers in CA. I took Barbri for my prep course. I have a very recent and in-depth understanding of the time a J.D. needs to invest to pass, the prep needed to succeed, and strategies to pass this very difficult test. [more]

All fear the vampiric ghost skeletal uber mr. mime caterpie!
Thank you Satomine Night for the awesome banner, and Mechadragon X for the sprite in it!
My most recent pet peeve is fighting a Pokemon with Sturdy.
Other peeves include a wild Zubat (I love Crobat though), and fighting a Fisherman with 6 Magikarps.
.: Waiting for the stars to align. | Edit by me, do not steal. :.
Whenever someone takes something too literally about Pokemon, or assumes the developers can't comprehend the concept of a joke. It stands to reason that if the developers have to make another few hundred new Pokedex entries each game they'd at least want to have fun with some of them.
I also don't like it when people assume necessary limits to be what the world is supposed to be interpreted as. You see this with Legendaries being unable to breed, with the ONLY reason being that you're only supposed to be able to catch one per game, not meaning they are immortal/reproduce via mitosis.
And really, I just get bugged by fan stupidity in general.
No, another peeve is seeing Zubat everywhere! You can't last even three encounters with that batface in the way! It's that fast to outspeed some of my Pokemon when they are in the same level! Even Tentacool and other Water Pokemon in Hoenn and other regions!
Pokemon with Sturdy like Wulava mentioned. Thankfully Mold Breaker exists to bypass the ability. Also the level grinding in the Johto Games.
Full Heal and Full Restore not getting rid of infatuation and being cursed. Aren't they supposed to heal all status ailments?
The fact that you need a Heart Scale or mushrooms to remember moves. I think it should be like the Move Deleter where you just ask them and they delete it for you, no "payment" needed.
I hate wild pokemon w/ sturdy too. Also wild pokemon that successsfully use detect, protect and endure when I wanna finish them off in one blow.

Here is something that confuses me
This is Chandelure's pokedex entry from Pokemon Black
It absorbs a spirit, which it then burns. By waving the flames on its arms, it puts its foes into a hypnotic trance.
According to research Chandelure CAN'T learn Hypnosis, so that is another reason the pokedex is wrong. It tips me off, because Chandelure which is my favourite pokemon can't learn a move that would greatly benefit it's use in catching legendaries and battling since it has insanely high special attack. Did I not mention Chandelure can learn Dream Eater but not any Sleep inducing move
Just cause Chandelure can't learn Hypnosis doesn't mean it can't hypnotise.
By that logic, a Luxray can't eat if it doesn't have Bite or Crunch.
Good for you Yuyama. Too bad you've singlehandedly torpedoed any lingering respect I and anyone else had for you.Shokotan: "And then, in Extremespeed Genesect: The Awakening of Mewtwo, we meet another Mewtwo!"
Yuyama: "Yes, I thought it'd be better if it was a different Mewtwo."
When the Elite Four/Champion have like 4-5 restores and use them on the same pokemon...
Lost my Platinum, so that's not good. On the other hand, I have heartgold and my FC is:
5070 6163 8015
Some pokemon do not begin with damage dealing attacks. They cannot battle or train, without an HM or TM, if they cannot decrease the HP of the opponent. Why does Splash even exist?
Cubone for example had Bone Club and Growl as its beginning attacks in Red/Blue, but Since Gold/Silver, it now only begins with Growl, leans Tail Whip next, then Bone Club. Other examples are:
Jigglypuff - Sing
Magikarp - Splash
Spoink - Splash
Togepi - Growl, Charm
Abra - Teleport
I am a fan of Genesect (as you could probably guess from my avatar), seeing how he's the "evil legend" of this generation.
His signature move, Techno Blast, is not liked. Why? Low PP, a complete inability to have STAB, low Base Power and the overall feeling of being a watered-down Judgment. Those different types are all inferior compared to Flamethrower, Ice Beam and Thunderbolt (and to a lesser extent Tri Attack). The only type worth using is the Water one, seeing how it's his only Water move, and even then, he could be able to use Hidden Power! And if you're playing Black (2), you can't get the Douse Drive!
Game Freak needs to give Techno Blast a serious buff. Maybe something like 200 power to justify no special effects and low PP.
(And while you're at it, give Flareon and Entei Flare Blitz and Extremespeed! Arcanine shouldn't one-up a legendary so easily!)
Good for you Yuyama. Too bad you've singlehandedly torpedoed any lingering respect I and anyone else had for you.Shokotan: "And then, in Extremespeed Genesect: The Awakening of Mewtwo, we meet another Mewtwo!"
Yuyama: "Yes, I thought it'd be better if it was a different Mewtwo."
Got reminded of one now - Mewtwo's off-model animé appearance.
In the games, he stands normally, like this:
But for some reason, in the animé he stands like he's wearing invisible heels. He apparantly has larger hips and a smaller head too.
It irks me that Mewtwo's probably famous because of the first move, and as such fan art has him with this off-model look.
And that's not even getting into his different backstory...

What really messes with me when I play 1st gen games. I have a Mew I obtained from exploiting a glitch in the game. Mews Pokedex entry is saying Mew has been seen in South America. I read that recently out of boredom and was like I should go to South America. But anyway gotta,loove the repitition in the Pokedex entrys after Gen3.

Not being able to buy repels before the first cave in GSC. It aggravates me to no end when I have to be confused by a stupid zubat every 5 steps!
And, talking about that, confusion and infatuation are extremely annoying too. Your enemy never hits himself, so why my pokémon gotta kill themselves with it every time? At least for me, infatuation is the lesser threat, because it doesn't make your pokémon kill themselves. I hate those Zubats and their confusion...

Recommender systems aim to furnish automatically personalized suggestions based on user preferences. These systems use information filtering (IF) techniques to recommend new items by comparing them with a user profile. This paper presents an approach where each user profile is modeled by a set of modal symbolic descriptions, which summarize the information given by the set of items already evaluated by the user. The comparison between a new item and a user profile is accomplished by a new suitable dissimilarity function which takes into account differences in content and position. This new approach is evaluated in comparison with the standard kNN method, which is an IF technique often used in this kind of system.

Hull City-Blackburn Rovers: Premier League PreviewDecember 10, 2009
Hull City Vs Blackburn Rovers, Kingston Communications Stadium,Hull, England, 12th December 2009, 15:00GMT
On Saturday, Sam Alladyce and his Blackburn Rovers team take the trip down the M62 to KC Stadium to face Hull City and his old friend Phil Brown. The last time the two faced off was in early March this year as the 2008/09 season was drawing to a close. The game finished with the Riversiders winning 2-1, with Stephen Warnock and Tiger's old boy Keith Andrews on target for Blackburn and the Tiger's captain Ian Ashbee getting a consolation goal.
The clubs see themselves sitting within three places of each other and only two points apart, with Blackburn in 12th on 18 points, and Hull City in 16th on 16 points.
The Tigers who have been going through a bit of a purple patch in November, gaining eight points from a possible 12, were brought down to earth last weekend when Aston Villa put three past them at Villa Park. If the loss wasn't enough, record signing and recent Barclays Premiership Player of the Month winner for November, Jimmy Bullard, suffered a sprained medial ligament injury that will probably keep him out until the end of January 2010.
The Tigers will also be without the services of last season's scorer Ashbee, who is a long term casualty. Hull City manager Brown will be giving late fitness tests for Andy Dawson and Anthony Gardner who both picked up niggling injuries.
However, Brown will be happy to see the return of Seyi Olofinjana, who has been absent for the past month after sustaining an injury whilst on international duty with Nigeria. He will also have the tricky task of whether to bring back Boaz Myhill into the Hull City goal. The Welsh international has returned from injury, but will find it difficult to dislodge the incumbent keeper, Matt Duke, who has been in fine form through November.
The Riversiders are without David Dunn, who suffered a calf injury in the goalless draw with Stoke City two weeks ago. Alladyce will be hoping that he can get the influential play-maker back to full fitness, despite the success of a Carling Cup Quarter Final victory on penalties against Premier League leaders Chelsea last week and the nil, nil draw against Liverpool last weekend.
Alladyce will be happy with recent performances but will be worried that his team is struggling to score in the League. Likewise, Brown will be hoping to recapture the recent form that has taken the Tigers away from the relegation zone but will be hoping that the loss to Aston Villa doesn't become a trend.

A noted preacher and teacher of the Word of God, he is also a gifted singer and musician.
"I love to worship God. In worship, you have to remove yourself," Ross said.
A native of Savannah, he has been a pastor for 37 years and has been in the ministry for 38.
Ross is the pastor and founder of several churches. He serves as the pastor of Trinity Outreach Ministries in Midway; Philadelphia Church of Christ in Brunswick; Church of God in Brunswick and Jones Temple in Jones. He is also the founder of New Jerusalem that is a Mission in Jacksonville
"We are working to start a mission outreach in Savannah," he said.
A man of vision, Ross would like to have a 24-hour prayer line wherein people call and receive prayer.
"I would also like to have a facility that can hold retreats," he said.
His vision also includes a Christian school, credit union, recording studio and a radio station.
He credits great men of God, such as the late Bishops M.D. Underwood and George Deloach, for helping to shape his spiritual walk and ministry.
"They were a great influence in my life. I can never forget them. They taught me how to control my emotions," he said. "These men taught me to have compassion for people because I was once where they were. They let me know they had instructed and prevailed with me, now I must show love and compassion."
Ross wants ministers to know the more they follow those in charge the more they will glean from those leaders' experience and not make the same mistakes.
"Just listening means a lot," he said.
A veteran in the ministry, Ross has a plethora of wisdom nuggets to share with pastors and ministers.
"Learn to suffer. Results will come, but it is in God's time. You must also be flexible. Don't be so rigid. As a pastor, don't surround yourself with everyone. Only those God tells you to put in your circle," he said.
"Being a pastor, you cannot afford to be subjected to things that don't relate to God. The same things you exemplify in church, you must also exemplify wherever you are."
Ross also advises ministers to "keep the gospel simple. Hold to what is solid, and preach what you can handle. Don't try to impress anyone."
Ross conducts "tent revivals." He conducted one in Savannah a couple of weeks ago.
"I love the street meetings. You have to go to where the people are," he said. Members of Ross' church also visit the nursing home.
Despite being a very busy pastor, in his spare time Ross enjoys "old" things.
"I like visiting the museum," he said.
In addition to his pastoral and overseer duties, he is employed with Great Dane in Savannah.
Ross and his wife, Gail, reside in Hinesville. They have been married 37 years, and have six children and 14 grandchildren.
Gail Ross is very active in the ministry. She also works as a patient financial counselor at Memorial Medical Center in Savannah.
Members of Trinity Outreach Ministries in Midway invite you to join them in celebrating their pastor and first lady's appreciation services, starting Oct. 15-21. Trinity Outreach Ministries is on Bacontown Road in Midway.-

On the eve of the Subway Series, part two, we seem to have a quarterback controversy brewing at second base.
Daniel Murphy, the incumbent, has been in a horrendous slump, hitting just .192 since May 16 following a .336 start. And even that start was deceptive, with his power disappearing almost entirely- he hasn't hit a home run in 2012.
It isn't any surprise, then, that Terry Collins has been looking for answers at the position. He started Jordany Valdespin at second base in two of the three games against the Orioles.
The question is, going forward: is Collins best served by starting Valdespin over Murphy?
Let's attack the question from 2012 only, to start.
Daniel Murphy, for his recent struggles, is still putting up an OPS+ of 84 this season. That isn't great. But while Valdespin has, unlike Murphy, homered in 2012, his OPS+ is just 86. See, he's walked exactly once in 60 plate appearances. Once.
If we are going on major league track record, Murphy has the advantage. That 86 OPS+ is the sum total of Valdespin's major league record. Murphy, over 1411 plate appearances, has been a 106 OPS+ hitter in the big leagues. So this month-long slump isn't a good bet to be indicative of Murphy's hitting going forward.
It was a useful look at how Collins is seeing things when he discussed Valdespin on Tuesday night, describing a conversation Valdespin had with Triple-A manager Wally Backman. Let's forget for a moment how skeptical I am (and you should be of small samples). Clearly, Collins thinks Backman got to Valdespin, and here's how the manager sees the results:
Prior to Backman conversation: .100/.143/.250, 21 plate appearances
After Backman conversation: .289/.308/.526, 39 plate appearances
Considering that Valdespin's surge has come at the same time as Murphy's slump, it is easy to understand why Collins is playing Valdespin.
But while there is a slight chance that the light went on for Valdespin, and even slighter chance that Murphy has forgotten how to hit, there isn't remotely enough evidence to support either idea. Valdespin, even in this post-Backman conversation world, still doesn't walk. His one free pass came before the Backman discussion. And his defense is every bit as poor as Murphy's.
The only other argument for Valdespin over Murphy is if the Mets believe Valdespin hasn't finished developing-he's just 24- while Murphy, at 27, has reached his ceiling. That's a good reason to play Valdespin, but it has nothing to do with 2012 results, when the 27 year old with a track record of above average hitting is far likelier to give Terry Collins production than the raw 24 year old who still swings at everything.
As long as the Mets remain in the pennant race, the second baseman really ought to be Daniel Murphy.

Thoughts about tonight's show? Who has the talent and 'character' to actually be written into the show...?
Thoughts about tonight's show? Who has the talent and 'character' to actually be written into the show...?
Since they chose tonight - Tony Awards night - for the premiere, I'll be watching later! I'll have to catch the show at 10....or 11....or 12!
It'll be interesting to watch the show because it's not just a case of who's the best performer, but who will be the best fit in the cast. I've seen some previews and have my favorites - Hannah, Lindsay and Bryce (but mainly just because he's pretty!) - but I'm not sure how they would fit into the Glee cast, particularly the two girls.
Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' - Isaac Asimov
I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, "... I drank what?"
I enjoyed watching the show and now have it set up on my DVR. I like that it's a competition for a spot as a character on a show instead of the public voting for their favorite singer, dancer, etc.
I can't pick a favorite yet until I get to know them a bit better, but I do have one person I really don't care for at all. Emily! I'm just not into a pretty girl who thinks flipping her hair makes her unique. I don't get it.
I'll be anxious to read what other people think of the whole project.
I really liked the show. But the big question is why is FOX not carrying it? All the show's people are there and you would think it would be a great "bridge" for Fox to carry between the seasons.
The casting director came across as such a nice person as did all the GLEE people. Sorry to see Bryce go, but my word, why would he ever take the attitude he did with the dance guy. It wasn't as if he was testing a student teacher in gym class....he knew with whom he was dealing and there was no way he would win that one.
So, yeah, can I pick 'em or can I pick 'em? Bryce is out first! Really, I just thought he was cute.
I thought Cameron showed a lot of promise - he has a good voice and would fit into the Glee cast. The problem with some of the contestants is that the niche they would fill is already taken on the show.
As much as I like Darren Criss, I thought most of his advice was pretty cliched. I'll be curious to see which Glee cast members show up on future episodes. I'll be totally shocked if Lea Michele makes an appearance.

I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, "... I drank what?"
I really enjoyed the format of the show, and like fact we will be "entertained" as well as really get to know the contestants. I also find it refereshing we really are watching an actual audition as opposed to a "competition." Blake wasn't let go because of his lack of talent, but rather his attitude...they really considered whether people would want to work with him on a day to day basis. And don't worry Critical, clearly you aren't alone...Bryce thought he was pretty darn good looking himself How different is that from your typical reality show? Most of these shows that cocky attitude would have taken him pretty far just so we could have the requisite reality "villain." It is interesting to try and consider where people would "fit" into the cast. I really like Damian's voice when he's singing in the old "Sinatra/Martin" genre, but I don't really think there's a place for him in the cast necessarily. The one person I could see instantly, was the young man with Down's Syndrome in the audition's show who thought he'd make a great boyfriend for Becky. I think that would make a really cute side story
"With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world."
"I lost my dignity on a slippery wiener."
I agree. The format is refreshing. What stood out to me, was the positive critique that the Glee staff gave each contestant. Be who you are and let us see if we can write about you.
I just love the show, which is odd, because I don't watch Glee. I'm not sure which ones would fit into the show, but I just enjoy watching this kids. My least favorite was the girl tryin to act sexy and flipping her hair. Uggghhh. Why was she praised for that? LOL
I got a kick out of the show. Ryan Murphy's appearance at the end was cool - I loved hearing his thoughts on the bottom three. That said, I was ready for Ellis to go home. I just can't see her on the show and playing up the fact that you look like a 10-year-old doesn't cut it for me. Naturally, she was my 8-year-old DD's favorite contestant. Hoochie mama Emily can go too - if her character came to Glee, I'd tune out. And the "classically trained Soprano" - she can go too. They've already got an actress with a big head (Lea) - I wouldn't like to see another one...
All that said, I really liked the nerd who couldn't dance (can't remember his name yet) and Mattheus (sp?). I was so impressed with their singing and could see them fitting in, though Mattheus reminds me a bit of Artie with his range.
I look forward to seeing what happens next. I wonder if my first impressions will change at all during the duration of the show.

Getting Lost - Poem by Gajanan Mishra
I am getting lost
In this place called Puri
Before your Grand view
O my dear O my Love
I am getting lost
In this place called Puri
I am really enjoying
Here the sweet sunrise
And the sunset
I am getting lost
In this place called Puri
Known as your Kheshtra and Dhama
I am not able to describe
My feeling in words in my poetry
Excuse me, O my dear
I am getting lost
In this place called Puri.
All roads lead to Puri
I know Puri is a place of pilgrimage
Of tourist interest
Some took it as a place of leisure trip
I am deeply moved by the temperate climate
And golden sea beach here
I know You are staying here
And calling me day and night.

Christmas shopping boom to downtown Wilmington economy
WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Earlier this month, we told you about obstacles facing downtown retailers. Today, many said the holiday season has brought a boom to business.
Many retailers in downtown Wilmington are closed Sundays, but this week they were open and ready to make those last minute sales.
"We opened earlier than we normally do on Sunday and there were people right away so that was good," said Hannah Yester, manager of Planet downtown.
Yester says more people are making the choice to shop at local stores for many reasons.
"We have a big variety of not just gifts and clothes but locally-made products and just, I think, maybe a homier feel."
Customers i spoke with agree.
"They have better options and better prices and friendlier people to help you," said Katie Sidders.
"Something that you're going to see everybody else wearing around town. And same with the hats and things like that. A lot of them are handmade, which i appreciate," said Jaclyn Schiegner.
"They just have a lot more stuff that you couldn't get at like a mall. You're less likely to give someone the same thing that they've already gotten from someone else," said Kayla Goggin.
Business owners I spoke with say the uptick is encouraging.
"Christmas season is the best season of the year for retailers, said downtown business owner Isaac Lazar. "That decides whether we're profitable or not. And it's been a tough year; there's no question about that."
Lazar says he has hope for a strong finish to the year and every last day counts.
"We're optimistic. We have what people want. And people do come and patronize us. You always see some last minute customers coming trying to buy gifts for their family."
The National Retail Federation says about 17 million Americans will wait until tomorrow to finish their Christmas shopping. So whether you shop locally or at the big box store, you won't be alone.

Emerton Top Defender...Again!
Vital Blackburn's most recent Poll asked you "Defender of the Month for September?" You voted Brett Emerton again!
Having won the poll for Defender of the Month, and indeed eventually overall Player of the Month for August Brett Emerton with 40% of the vote has been voted top defender for the second month running. With 36% compatriot Lucas Neill again finished runner up to Emerton with both advancing to the overall poll to determine Augusts Player of the Month at the end of the week.
A much improving Andre Ooijer picked up 14% to finish in third place, but not even two penalty saves and three clean sheets could earn goalkeeper Brad Friedel anymore than 8% of the votes. Zurab Khizinashvilli and Aaron Mokoena picked up the final 2% with 1% each.
So in summary
Brad Friedel - 8%
Brett Emerton - 40%
Andre Ooijer - 14%
Zurab Khizinashvilli - 1%
Lucas Neill - 36%
Aaron Mokoena - 1%
As the search for the Rovers player of the month for September continues the current poll (running for Monday and Tuesday) is asking, "Midfielder of the Month for September?"
Remember the two midfielders with the most votes advance to the overall poll, joining Emerton and Neill to determine who you felt deserved the title as Vital Blackburn Rovers Player of the Month for September.
As for what you think, cast your vote, and why not have your say on the latest polls findings...

The statistics used are occasionally mind-boggling (enough forest lost every year to cover Germany), and the stars' intense reactions at times perhaps a little too studied.

Congress and the rest of the U.S. travel industry could learn a lesson from the Hawaiian tourism community. Late last week, the Hawaiian Tourism Authority voted to spend an additional $12 million by next spring to help draw visitors back to the islands. The funds are on top of $54 million already earmarked for tourism marketing this year.
This quasi-government agency created in 1988 to oversee spending of hotel tax monies saw a problem—a steep drop-off in visitor arrivals during the first half of the year—and almost immediately sought a solution. Meanwhile, the rest of the U.S. travel industry continues to wallow in its efforts to get Congress and various Administrations to get behind a plan—any plan—to get the federal government to promote travel to the U.S.
The latest effort, the Travel Promotion Act, is wending its way through both branches of Congress and may be the best shot the industry has to finally get some respect in Washington. The cleverly crafted legislation calls for international visitors to pay $10 a head to enter the country, with the funds going to both promote tourism to the U.S. and to communicate U.S. security and entry policies to potential visitors. The plan will cost taxpayers nothing and also bolster the country's concerns over border security.
If you have a chance, pick up the phone or dash off an e-mail message to your senator or representative, telling him and/or her why this legislation makes so much sense.
Hawaii didn't become a tourism powerhouse just because it has great beaches, fabulous hotels and the vaunted aloha spirit. It takes a lot of hard work, marketing muscle and, most of all, tons of money. Listen up, Congress.

THE V-ROYS - Sooner or Later (2011)
Formed in Knoxville, TN, the V-Roys began to walk the fine line between rootsy country and cutting-edge alternative rock with their formation in 1994, comprising vocalist/guitarist Scott Miller, lead guitarist John Paul Keith, bassist Paxton Sellers, and drummer Jeff Bills. The quartet signed to Praxis Records, but the label folded soon after, prompting Steve Earle to sign the V-Roys to his E-Squared Records. He also produced the band's debut album, Just Add Ice. Just before the album was released in September 1996, Keith left the band and was replaced by Mike Harrison. In 1998, the V-Roys issued their sophomore effort, All About Town, again co-produced by Steve Earle. Two years later, Are You Through Yet? was released.
The V-Roys are not reuniting but did get together to create this collection of 18 songs that represents the best of their catalog. To sweeten the deal, they found 5 unreleased studio tracks that include 2 unreleased original songs, 'Hotel Room' and 'Someone to Push Around'. all have been polished up and remastered for 'Sooner or Later'. The V-Roys are guitar/vocals Scott Miller, guitar/vocals Mic Harrison, bass/vocals Paxton Sellers and drums/percussion Jeff Bills. All songs except 'Cold Beer Hello' produced by the Twangtrust (Ray Kennedy and Steve Earle). Guest musicians: Larry Atamanuik, Steve Earle,Tommy Hannum, Jim Hoke, Dan Gillis, Ray Kennedy, Ronnie McCoury and Michael Smotherman.

Catchings is WNBAs top overall vote-getter; Douglas finishes 3rd in East, 7th overall
July 14, 2011
INDIANAPOLIS Indiana Fever forward Tamika Catchings led all players with 32,706 votes in the 2011 WNBA All-Star Balloting Presented by T-Mobile while teammate Katie Douglas finished seventh in overall balloting and third in the WNBAs Eastern Conference. Catchings received the most votes for the third time in her career, matching a distinction from 2006 and 2009.
It is the second time the Catchings-Douglas duo has been voted to the Easts All-Star Game starting lineup, repeating the feat from 2009 in the leagues last All-Star Game. It is the third time Indiana has been represented by two players in the starting lineup, counting Catchings and Anna DeForge in the 2007 game.
Seattle Storm guard Sue Bird (25,077), the second overall vote-getter, paced the Western Conference. Minnesota Lynx forward Maya Moore (21,379), who leads her club against the Fever on Friday at Conseco Fieldhouse, became the first rookie voted to start in the WNBA All-Star game since Catchings and Bird in 2002.
The 2011 WNBA All-Star Game will be nationally broadcast on ABC, Saturday, July 23 at 3:30 p.m. ET (2:30 p.m. CT) from San Antonio.
Joining Catchings and Douglas (18,598) in the Eastern Conference starting lineup are New York Liberty guard Cappie Pondexter (20,226), Connecticut Sun center Tina Charles (17,205) and Atlanta Dream forward Angel McCoughtry (14,310). Selected as starters for the Western Conference alongside Bird and Moore are Phoenix Mercury guard Diana Taurasi (22,406), the third leading vote-getter, Los Angeles Sparks center Candace Parker (19,376) and Storm forward Swin Cash (14,907).
Catchings (2002-03, 2005-07, 2009, 2011), Bird (2002-03, 2005-07, 2009, 2011) and Taurasi (2005-07, 2009, 2011) have been voted starters for every WNBA All-Star Game since they entered the league.
The league will announce the reserves, selected by the leagues 12 head coaches, on Tuesday, July 19 at 7 p.m. ET. Replacement players, who will take the roster spot of players who cannot play due to injury, will be named by the WNBA President. By virtue of winning their respective conference titles last season, Seattles Brian Agler will coach the Western Conference, and the Eastern Conference will be led by Atlantas Marynell Meadors.

Players, umpires under fire after Twenty20 match abandoned
Australian captain Michael Clarke, left, and David Warner are seen on the pitch as their team's Twenty20 International cricket match against England is abandoned due to rain at the Old Trafford cricket ground.
Photo: AP
Players and umpires have come under fire after Australia's second Twenty20 match against England was abandoned without a ball bowled, with the ECB launching an official inquiry and Lancashire chief executive Jim Cumbes saying the wet ground would have been good enough for county cricketers.
Umpires decided the Old Trafford Cricket Ground was not fit for an international after several inspections, pointing to a soggy run-up from one end of the pitch as too dangerous for pace bowlers.
While insurance covers Lancashire's losses for ticket refunds, they will have lost significant amounts on food and drink sales with the match called off about 75 minutes after play was scheduled to start, and Cumbes seethed: "I'm angry and bitterly disappointed. I am angry because to my mind we were told when we started playing Twenty20 cricket several years ago you should be playing in the kind of conditions you wouldn't normally play in first class cricket.
"To my mind if that had been Lancashire v Yorkshire on a Friday night in front 16,000 people we would have been playing. I know the umpires have tough decisions to make and I am aware of the importance of the safety of players - Christ, I played the game for 20 years, but there comes a time when you have got to think about the people who paid $GBP50 to come in here.
"Sometimes I think we would rather play in front of empty stadiums."
Suggestions that players should have put on a show for the capacity 19,500 fans at the ground by bowling from one end were dismissed by both captains.
Australian skipper Michael Clarke said: "I guess you could have bowled spin only and you could have got a game.
"There is probably a couple of things [you could have done] to put a show on for the crowd. But the fact is this is a Twenty20 international for your country.
"You want to play your full strength team and there is no game I play for Australia in which I am willing to go out and bowl some full tosses so the crowd get a spectacle. The Twenty20 world championship is not too far away and we want to play our full strength team to get practice under our belt."
The first Twenty20 at the same ground was abandoned seven balls into England's innings, as they chased Australia's 4-145.
The ECB's pitch inspector, Chris Wood, will be sent to seek answers from Lancashire.
Australia heads to London today for Friday's first one-dayer at The Oval, scene of the Ashes loss.

As chief of the IDF general staff, and later as a minister in Rabin's cabinet, Barak talked to the prime minister about the problems with the Oslo Accords very often, he says.
Rabin is intended by the Norwegian Nobel Committee to honour a political act which called for great courage on both sides, and which has opened up opportunities for a new development towards fraternity in the Middle East.
In Israel, Jewish settlers demonstrated angrily, calling Rabin a "traitor."
The initiative, known as the Rabin-King Initiative, will be housed at Morehouse College in Atlanta.
President Barack Obama called Rabin a brave soldier who believed the "only battle that is a pleasure to wage is the battle for peace."

Likud Cabinet Minister Olmert: 'Rabin's Oslo Move Was A Courageous Step That Influenced Sharon's Recent Disengagement'
AIPAC, being a pro-Israel lobby, does naturally tend to support Likud governments when they are in power, as they've mostly been since 1977, but I haven't seen evidence that they have been less supportive of Labor governments, such as Rabin's.
