Morning Skate Report: Flames vs. Habsby Torie Peterson / Calgary Flames
The rash of injuries suffered by Flames forwards in recent days has afforded Matt Stajan the chance to play on the top line with Alex Tanguay and Jarome Iginla.
However, when asked about his new linemates, Stajan stated he wasn't focused on who he was playing with. His mind is simply on helping his team get two points and climb up the Western Conference standings.
"I think we're just trying to win a hockey game here and move on," the pivot said. "Obviously we have a ton of injuries and we need guys to step. It doesn't matter who you're playing with. You've got to a do a job.
"For myself, I just can't change the way I've been playing. I've got to keep working hard and do the little things. I know the guys who I'm playing with tonight will get some scoring chances and we've got to contribute."
Given the increase in minutes and the situations he'll be put in, one may assume Stajan feels a ton of pressure heading into tonight's clash with the Habs. The man himself shrugged off that notion, saying it was a great opportunity.
"You embrace it. This is the fun part of the year. You're driving for playoffs. We need the two points. We're going to be a desperate hockey club. Obviously you don't control who you're playing with but you can control what you do out there. I've got to focus on my game, do what I need to do. Hopefully we find some chemistry here early in the game."
With Lance Bouma, Blake Comeau and Mike Cammalleri all sidelined with upper body maladies, the Flames recalled Krys Kolanos, Greg Nemisz and Guillaume Desbiens from the Abbotsford Heat on Monday.
All three have been recalled by the Flames earlier in the season and they are reveling in the chance to once again play with the big club.
"It's the best time of year to play hockey," Kolanos smiled. "It's the most exciting, for sure."
Desbiens and Nemisz both played two games with Calgary while Kolanos was in town for 10 outings and collected his first point in Flames silks during that span. While he was happy with his overall performance during his first call-up, there were a few aspects of his game he felt needed work. After being assigned to the Heat, he worked on improving those details and feels he is better prepared to help the team now.
"When I was here before, I was to find a niche in that kind of third, fourth line role but wherever they need me, I'll be ready."
The trio will play on the forth line tonight with Desbiens and Nemisz flanking Kolanos. All three are very comfortable with this situation as they are extremely familiar with each others style of play.
"You play with these guys all year and you know them," Nemisz said. "It definitely makes it a little easier.
"There's no time for us to feel it out. We've all been up here this year already. We're going to go out there and we've got to play our game."
Stajan needs 1 goal for 100.
Tom Kostopoulos will play in his 600th NHL game tonight.
Mark Giordano needs 9 assists for 100.
Scott Hannan needs 4 points for 200.
Tanguay needs 9 assists for 500.

I'm in love!!! …with my dog.
I think everyone should have a dog. (An adopted dog, of course.) Dogs are the best things EVER. They're kind of like kids, but better because they don't talk back, date or ask for money. (Right dad? ;))
You know the saying, "a dog is a man's best friend"? I have learned that that phrase is very true. Cooper is the best thing that has ever happened to me. He's my baby and my best friend (besides the BF). I can't imagine my life without him.
OK, so you get the point, right? So now, I'm going to suggest that if you don't already have a dog, get one, STAT! I promise you won't regret it. It'll be the best decision you ever made. Sure, having a dog is a lot of some work, but it's SOOO worth it. Just think of the benefits: you'll get exercise from walking every day, lots of love and affection, you'll always have someone to hang out with, and the best part – there will always be someone waiting at the door to greet you after a long, hard day at work, and I promise you will immediately feel better.
If you're thinking about adopting a pup, there are lots of local shelters with lots of loving pups that need good homes. Below is some info for a few of the shelters. For a complete list of pet adoption locations, click the last link.
Please, please, please consider adopting a dog. There are lots of dogs that need homes, and lots of homes that need dogs. 🙂

Beach Reading
I'm on vacation, so I won't be posting often, I'm sure. I am about 1/3 of the way through W. Somerset Maugham's Of Human Bondage, and I'm not sure I'm enjoying it, but I am interested in where this character, Philip, is going. Philip is on hold currently, though, because one of my vacation-mates has with her the final installment of the Twilight series, which I am hating but must finish to feel complete in my estimation of it. This last book is long, but requires no effort whatsoever, so I should knock it out soon. Will comment upon the conclusion.

For the first time in seven years, June will have run its course before Philadelphia experiences its first official heat wave – as in three consecutive days of 90-plus temperatures.
Based on the extended forecasts posted Tuesday on the website of AccuWeather -- which supplies the daily weather package for The Inquirer -- summer was going to turn serious in July.
Blistering heat was due to bake the region for nine days starting on Tuesday, with a forecast high of 95, followed by 90-pluses for seven of the next eight days. This got our attention.
We considered posting on the coming heat wave, but on Wednesday we were glad we waited. The outlook for the first 10 days posted on that day had quite a different look.
The onset of the serious heat was pushed back to Sunday, July 6, and the 90-pluses were reduced to five days.
The Thursday and Friday outlooks wrought yet more changes, and taken literally, erased any heat wave.
The day-to-day volatility in the daily forecast highs was quite notable. On Tuesday, the forecast high for Wednesday, July 9, was 94. On subsequent days it rose to 97, dipped to 89, and then went back up to 98.
This is not to pick on AccuWeather – try the same exercise with any weather service – but just to point out that the art of the extended forecast still is countless brush strokes away from perfection.
As we've noted, wonderful as they are, those computer models that generate long-term forecasts have something in common with humans in that they are fallible, and forecast accuracy decreases with time.
For now we should savor our generally good fortune so far this summer, and regardless of the extended forecasts -- no heat wave before its time.

New Jersey Devils sign on as exclusive sponsors of NJSIAA's 2013-2015 Ice Hockey Championship tournamentsby Staff Writer / New Jersey Devils
ROBBINSVILLE, NJ (December 17, 2012) -- The New Jersey Devils will be the exclusive sponsor for the 2013, 2014, and 2015 NJSIAA (New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association) ice hockey championship tournaments. Games for all three years are currently scheduled to be played on the Devils' home ice, the Prudential Center Arena in Newark.
The New Jersey Devils and Prudential Center have played host to the NJSIAA high school ice hockey championships since the building opened in 2007. NewJerseyDevils.com is also the home to New Jersey Youth Hockey Central where scores, stats, and standings for more than 300 high school and youth hockey teams and their 6,000 players are featured on the team's website
Under agreement with the NJSIAA, the Devils will manage all tournament ticket sales at the arena, as well as sales of luxury suites and all concessions. Funds collected via these sales will be retained by the Devils.
"This agreement with the Devils is exciting for our association, and we know it will be exciting for our student athletes," said Steven J. Timko, NJSIAA executive director. "We'll be working with a world-class professional sports franchise to stage our annual state championship ice hockey event, and the students on participating high school teams will be skating on the same rink that's used regularly by the Devils and their National Hockey League opponents."
Devils Chairman and Managing Partner Jeff Vanderbeek said: "The Devils are committed to building partnerships throughout the community and among our fans, so partnering with the NJSIAA is absolutely a perfect fit for us. In the New Jersey market, our franchise represents the finest sport in the world, and bringing opportunities to high school players is something we're proud and delighted to do."
The specific schedule for the 2013 tournament will be determined before the end of this December. The event will also feature a championship luncheon, hosted by the Devils, for the final eight teams competing in the tourney.
"I'm really looking forward to watching all the young hockey players skating out on to that ice, then gazing up at the trio of Stanley Cup banners hanging from the rafters," said Lou Lamoriello, Devils CEO, president, and general manager. "I'm sure that will send chills down a few spines."
General admission tickets for 2013 will sell for $10, while student and senior ticket prices will be $3.

2013 is winding down, and it's time to start thinking about becoming financially fit in 2014. Thirty-four percent of Americans set financial resolutions goals, but only 8 percent are successful in achieving them, according to a 2012 University of Scranton study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology.
Don't want to be a part of that statistic? Here are eight ways to stay on track:
1. Set realistic financial goals. You're more likely to reach your financial goals if you define them. Whether you're paying off a credit card or trying to buy a house, figure out where you can do some fine-tuning, and then create a plan of action that you can stick with throughout the year.
2. Use credit responsibly. It's easy to get carried away with credit card spending, but you'll likely accrue debt if you're not careful. There are ways to use credit cards to your advantage. Sign up for a credit card with a strong rewards program so you accrue points toward your next trip or splurge purchase every time you use the card. Keep an eye out for cardholder discounts some credit card issuers set up with retailers. Whenever possible, pay off your balance in full and on time each month.
3. Create an emergency fund. Regularly putting money aside in a savings account is crucial in case of an unexpected bill, car repair or loss of income. This is easier said than done, so start with a small amount and get into the habit of putting money away. Cash on hand can spare you from having to use more expensive options such as short-term loans or high-interest credit cards. Automate the process by setting up weekly transfers from your checking account so you don't have to think about it.
4. Use it, don't lose it. If there's cash left in your 2013 health care flexible spending account, don't assume you'll lose it come the new year. Some plans allow you to spend your contributions until March 2014, so check with your plan administrator. If you don't have a flexible spending account, sign up for one when your employer next offers open enrollment. These accounts save you money by allowing you to set aside pre-tax dollars for medical expenses ranging from office visit co-pays to contact lenses and glasses.
5. Tackle your taxes. Don't wait until April to start working on your income taxes. Start now by setting aside all year-end documents, including W-2s, 1099s and bank statements. Collect all your charitable receipts, and organize any business expenses that you plan to write off. Preparing in advance is one of the best ways to maximize your return.
6. Lower your energy usage. This is an easy solution. Turning off the lights when you leave a room, using dimmer switches and keeping the thermostat set at a reasonable temperature are all easy ways to lighten your utility bill. Lowering the thermostat by 10 degrees for 16 hours a day while away at work and sleeping can save you 14 percent off your total heating costs. For example: A $50 bill will drop to $43, which is $7 in savings. Get in the habit of doing a nightly check of the electronic devices in your home before going to bed to ensure everything is turned off. Your wallet (and the Earth) will thank you.
7. Share the road. If possible, try biking to work, carpooling or using public transportation. Beyond saving on fuel costs, automobile wear and tear, and parking, you also might accomplish your New Year's resolution to exercise more!
8. Skip the latte. While a $4 morning coffee can satisfy the soul, it can also hurt the budget. Consider buying the equipment needed to make your beverage of choice at home. It's a larger out-of-pocket expense, but it will easily pay for itself over time.
Having a financial goal in mind for the New Year doesn't mean you have to deprive yourself of life's little luxuries, especially as the holidays come to an end. If you know where to cut your budget, set money aside for savings and always have your long-term goals in mind, you'll likely see your short-term holiday wishes come true as well as your future ones!

Hello readers; recently i have purchased the xo-1 1717 big block motor and the esc with the capaciter (big thanks to Kitchen. As i have read and been told, the motor mount needs to be cut to make the motor fit, what would be the best way to do this? with a dremel? a drill with the circular blades that cuts holes? i know that the 1717 motor delivers alot of torque, for the e-revo to handle the torque stronger driveshafts are inline- which brings me to my next question; i have a emaxx with steel cvd drivelines, can i switch the drivelines arround from the e revo to the emaxx and the emaxx over to the e revo? also would i have to purchase xo-1 differentials? both front and rear? just rear? or what? what mods would have to be done to hook up the differentials if i have to purchase them? what other mods do i need to do? and i think this is my last question: does anyone know if any company happens to sell any dodge bodies that are aero dynamic?
specs: it is a stock kawasaki e-revo except for alloy front lower a-arms, alloy rear skid plate, summit tires (planning on picking up a sent of either 2.8 trenchers or 3.8 trenchers for every day use, and a set of foams for high speed runs) and a alloy wheely bar
what will it be used for: the average day basher, and possibly to race some 1:1 scale cars at mopars on the strip.
feel free to ask questions, leave feedback, or creative critisism
As always;
Thanks for your time, Kenny.

Posted on 01/05/2013 10:12:49 PM PST by smokingfrog
A Florida man just wanted ketchup on his Philly cheesesteak sandwich at Subway. When he didn't get it, a confrontation with the sandwich maker ensued, leading to a 911 call.
Now-former Subway employee Lawrence Ordone told TV station WFTV he was working behind the counter at the sandwich restaurant in an Orlando Walmart on New Year's night, when a man ordered a Philly cheesesteak.
"He (the customer) wants ketchup on the Philly cheesesteak and I have never put -- we don't even have ketchup at Subway -- I've never put ketchup on anybody's sandwich," Ordone told WFTV.
The restaurant chain -- famed for its "$5 footlongs" and diet commercials with "Subway Guy" Jared Fogle -- does not offer ketchup, according to a menu on the Subway website. Only condiments like mustard, mayo, vinegar and oil are available.

Did he get fired or quit?
What a greedy corporation, that poor deprived citizen is certainly due a large settlement for his suffering.
Who ever heard of a restaurant that refuses to have ketchup?
I guess the founder of Subway must have had some early childhood problem.
Don't tell anyone in Philly, but sliced ribeye and wiz on an Amorosa roll with nothing else but KETCHUP is pretty tasty. Oscar Madison said it best: "I like ketchup - it's like tomato wine."
That is a little strange. But, still, anyone who want ketchup on a Philly cheese steak ought to be taken out back by the dumpsters and fluffed up a bit.
The local donut shop here doesn't have ketchup. I don't know if they'd refuse it, though. Not that many people, at least here in these parts, find that ketchup improves donuts.
As Ben Franklin said, "Ya don't put ketchup ona Philly".
(He would've said it if he had a Philly)
He fled the scene, so I'm guessing he was fired.
I don't understand why Subway can't have ketchup, but they don't, and that's the way it has always been.
I've carried my own packets once or twice, but I've gotten used to not having ketchup on my subs.
I think he was fired.
You would think that they would at least have some ketchup packets.
The closest thing would be the tomato sauce for the meatball sub I guess.
" anyone who want ketchup on a Philly cheese steak ought to be taken out back by the dumpsters and fluffed up a bit.
Being a southern boy, I have never seen a Philly Cheese steak, and I have no desire to even try.
That being said, no one is going to tell me what and what not I can put on my food.
If you eat at my house, the steak will be medium rare and I will not serve A1 or ketchup.
Burly Detective: Come on, Harry. Take it easy.
Harry Callahan: Or this job, either. Having to wade through the scum of this city, being swept away by bigger and bigger waves of corruption, apathy and red tape. Nah, that doesn't bother me. But you know what does bother me?
Burly Detective: What?
Harry Callahan: You know what makes me really sick to my stomach?
Burly Detective: What?
Harry Callahan: Is watching you stuff your face with those hot dogs. Nobody, I mean NOBODY puts ketchup on a hot dog.
Ketchup with Lobster, you want Ketchup!
Who would put ketchup on hot dogs? I would. That said Subway does not offer ketchup at all. It is not McDonalds. (But then I never asked)
A Taiwanese woman told me that after seeing spaghetti on an American TV show, her family decided to try it. So they cooked noodles and covered them with ketchup.
Ketchup on a Hamburger, Mustard on a Hotdog, just as God intended.

Annual Salary Survey
Before the calendar turned, 2016 already had the makings of a pivotal year for manufacturing, and for the world.
There were the big events for the year, including the United States as Partner Country at Hannover Messe in April and the 2016 International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago in September. There's also the matter of the U.S. presidential elections in November, which promise to shape policy in manufacturing for years to come.
But the year started with global economic turmoil, as a slowdown in Chinese manufacturing triggered a worldwide stock hiccup that sent values plummeting. The continued plunge in world oil prices has resulted in a slowdown in exploration and, by extension, the manufacture of exploration equipment.

"The Spring package is the best": the children's center explained the controversial posters
Wrong interpretations explained in the Tomsk children's recreation centre "Energy" scandal painted by pupils of the posters on the so-called "Spring package".
photo: twitter.com
We will remind that on Tuesday, August 9, the community of "Vkontakte" "Real Lentech" published photos of posters, signing them "In the Tomsk children's camp held a competition for the best poster in support of the "Spring package". Even then, however, many users noted that, according to the text of the posters we are talking about the name of the team, and not to support legislative initiatives. However, the pictures have gone viral on the background of the last evening in Moscow rally against "package".

— Lentic (@oldLentach) 9 August 2016.
In the end, the Director of the children's centre Galina Bocharova was forced to explain to the portal Tomsk.ru that, in fact, the posters were created as part of the quest in search of "treasures". According to legend, "treasure" was stolen in the beginning of the shift, and the children had to create their own "detective Agency" to find them, reacting to every day offer tips.
One of these agencies called "Grouse", and the second is "Spring Package" in Association with permit adopted by the Duma in the law surveillance of citizens on the Internet.
At the moment the shift is over.
Recall that the "Spring package" consists of two already in force laws: one of them allows you to put in a colony of children from 14 years for terrorism and non-information, extremism, etc., and also makes it extremely difficult missionary work in Russia.
Read how the Federation Council with the scandal took a "Spring package".
The second law requires operators for six months to store all user traffic that, as experts warn, technically feasible, but in any case should lead to increase of tariffs for the link about three times.
At yesterday's rally in Moscow's Sokolniki against the laws protested, according to various estimates, from 400 to 1,000. Among the participants were representatives of the Internet (in particular, Anton Nossik), and opposition politicians Alexei Navalny and his followers).

Putting AI at the Centre of Mobile Technology
This week scientists at MIT announced a breakthrough in Artificial Intelligence (AI) that puts deep learning at the centre of mobile technology. For the moment devices like smart cars, smartphones, and wearables are typically not efficient enough to perform complex tasks, like facial recognition, without being connected to the internet. But MIT's findings could be a major moment that accelerates the take-up of the Internet of Things (IoT). Essentially, machine or deep learning on a mobile device is modelled on the anatomy of the human brain. When charged with a task, the device connects to a large virtual 'neural' network of 'simple information-processing units'. Typically the process is fraught with issues. One is power consumption. Deep learning relies on a chip – the graphics processing unit (GPU) – that renders…

Ecclestone says "bit stupid" to pay German banker
- Reuters
- Sport
- 22 Jun 2012 (South Africa)
Formula One chief Bernie Ecclestone said on Thursday that paying a German banker, who admitted in court to taking bribes during the sale of a stake in the motor-racing business, had been a "bit stupid". By Keith Weir
Ecclestone's role has come under the spotlight after BayernLB's former chief risk officer Gerhard Gribkowsky told a Munich court on Wednesday he had allowed himself to be bribed during the sale of the bank's 48 percent shareholding in 2006.
Ecclestone, 81, told Reuters that Gribkowsky had been putting him under pressure over his tax affairs. He paid some 10 million pounds ($16 million) to the banker to "keep him quiet" and not as alleged to smooth the sale of the Formula One stake to private equity firm CVC Capital Partners.
Gribkowsky is on trial for breach of trust and tax evasion over a payment of 45 million euros ($57 million) he received and a judge has said he could face nine years in prison.
"I have always said that we gave him money but it was not for what he said," said Ecclestone, who appeared as a witness at the trial last November.
"He was shaking me down a bit and saying I had control of a family trust which was not true," said Ecclestone, speaking by telephone from the Spanish city of Valencia ahead of this weekend's European Grand Prix.
"He was doing the best he could. I was a little bit stupid - normally I would have told him to get lost," he said.
The billionaire said his tax arrangements had been cleared by the British authorities two years later but at the time he had not wanted to get drawn into a potentially hugely expensive legal fight. The comments echo testimony Ecclestone gave to the trial.
"The downside was it could have cost 2 billion (pounds), so I paid him. My payment was just over 10 million pounds. As a business guy, I thought that was the better deal," said Ecclestone.
CVC retained Ecclestone as head of the business after the deal. Despite his age, the diminutive Briton remains the central figure in running a sport which is expected to generate revenue of $2 billion this year and there is no obvious successor.
CVC had had a majority stake in Formula One, the high-speed motor racing series, since 2006 but has been whittling that down in deals in recent months and now has around 35 percent.
U.S. asset management company Waddell & Reed has built up a 20.9-percent stake for an investment of around $1.6 billion.
Formula One put plans for a flotation in Singapore this month on hold because of market volatility, but Ecclestone said the intention was still to proceed.
"It was just simply that the market is a bit turbulent. Why go into the market and battle against something? It wasn't necessary," he said.
"Everything is being prepared. When markets look a bit more stable, they will push the button and go." DM

Backing Away from a Fight, Trump to Honor One-China Policy
Simon Denyer and Philip Rucker, THE WASHINGTON POST
President Trump just backed down from what could have been a serious fight with China. On Thursday evening in Washington, he appeared to shy away from confrontation with Beijing by agreeing to honor the one-China policy, during a lengthy telephone call with Xi Jinping. The move is set to ease tensions between the world's two most powerful nations: relations had been inflamed after Trump suggested he would only commit to the one-China policy if Beijing addressed his concerns about trade and currency issues.
A Chinese Medical Study Is Being Retracted for Relying on Organs Harvested from Executed Prisoners
Ephrat Livini, QUARTZ
Last year, a prestigious medical journal published research from Chinese surgeons involving 564 transplanted livers. Now, Liver International is retracting the study amid accusations that the livers were extracted from executed prisoners of conscience—people killed for their beliefs. The issue of illicit harvesting of human parts persists, and this week the Vatican's Pontifical Academy of Sciences is holding a summit on organ trafficking and transplant tourism.
China and Vatican Near Pivotal Deal on Bishops
Chun Han Wong, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
The head of the Roman Catholic Church in Hong Kong signaled that the Vatican and Beijing are nearing an accord over how Chinese bishops are picked, a key step toward "normalizing" bilateral ties marred by six decades of estrangement. In a recent essay, Cardinal John Tong expressed optimism that the continuing dialogue "implies" a shift in Beijing's policy on the Catholic Church toward recognizing the pope as "the highest and final authority in deciding on the candidates for bishops in China," wrote Cardinal Tong, the Bishop of Hong Kong, in an essay published on his diocese's website on Thursday.
Flynn Is Said to Have Talked to Russians About Sanctions Before Trump Took Office
Matthew Rosenberg and Matt Apuzzo, THE NEW YORK TIMES
Weeks before President Trump's inauguration, his national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, discussed American sanctions against Russia, as well as areas of possible cooperation, with that country's ambassador to the United States, according to current and former American officials. Throughout the discussions, the message Mr. Flynn conveyed to the ambassador, Sergey I. Kislyak—that the Obama administration was Moscow's adversary and that relations with Russia would change under Mr. Trump—was unambiguous and highly inappropriate, the officials said.
Ukrainian Librarian Under Russian House Arrest Takes Case to Court of Human Rights
Danuta Kean, THE GUARDIAN
Natalya Sharina, a Ukrainian librarian held under house arrest in Russia since October 2015, has taken her case to the European court of human rights in Strasbourg. Since her arrest in 2015, the Russian authorities have extended the order for Sharina, director of the Ukrainian Literature Library in Moscow, to be detained at home repeatedly, despite calls for her release. In a move roundly condemned by human rights groups, Sharina went on trial in November 2016 for incitement by stocking books banned in Russia and labelled extremist and "anti-Russian propaganda."
Hollywood Seeks New Business Terms with China
Erich Schwartzel, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
Hollywood will soon have its first chance in five years to change the terms of doing business in China, a politically fraught opportunity for studios to reap billions more from their most important foreign market. Any deal struck this year will likely cover a period in which China surpasses North America as the world's No.1 movie market. The stakes couldn't be higher for Hollywood, which is counting on China's growth to pick up the slack of a stagnating domestic market and falling home-entertainment revenue.
US Detains 172 Cuban Migrants Following End of "Wet Foot, Dry Foot" Policy
Nora Gámez Torres, THE MIAMI HERALD
At least 172 Cuban nationals who tried to enter the United States following the end to an immigration policy known as "wet foot, dry foot" are now in detention facilities, awaiting for the results of their removal proceedings, federal agencies have confirmed. "Since January 14, there has been an increase of 172 Cuban nationals in ICE [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] detention," an ICE official said.
Venezuela Falls Behind on Oil-For-Loan Deals with China, Russia
Venezuela's state-run oil company, PDVSA, has fallen months behind on shipments of crude and fuel under oil-for-loan deals with China and Russia, according to internal company documents reviewed by Reuters. The delayed shipments to such crucial political allies and trading partners—which together have extended Venezuela at least $55 billion in credit— provide new insight into PDVSA's operational failures and their crippling impact on the country's unraveling socialist economy.
Venezuela Heading for Cuba-Style Vote: Opposition
Venezuelan opposition leaders said Thursday the country is heading toward Cuban-style elections, with no real challengers to the ruling party, thanks to burdensome new rules governing how parties renew their registration. The accusation comes as the opposition stands to make major gains in upcoming regional elections, with Venezuela's economy imploding and President Nicolás Maduro's popularity plunging.
Increase in Chinese Visitors to Vietnam Eases Tensions
More visitors to Vietnam come from China than from any other country. The number of Chinese tourists going to Vietnam reached 250,000 last month, a 68 percent increase from the number in January 2016. The popularity of Vietnam with Chinese tourists is somewhat of a surprise. The two countries are involved in a territorial dispute in the South China Sea and have a long history of disputes and distrust.

Blogging over iCal
by Kevin Hemenway
Related link: http://www.disobey.com/dnn/2002/09/index.shtml#001373
Everyone knows that Apple's free calendar application, iCal has been released. One of the niftiest features is subscriptions: you can subscribe to someone else's calendar, much like you can subscribe to a mailing list or someone's RSS feed. Welp, here's a spiffy idea proposed by Jim Roepcke: I want to make a ... page that generates an iCal file so people can subscribe to the blog in iCal... It would be a nice groupware feature, wouldn't it?
So, I've thrown together a simplistic Movable Type blog-to-iCal implementation.
There are a couple of things not-so-perfect (and any ignorance of my own is due to not reading the vCalendar spec, instead merely mimicking a sample calendar I created for this purpose. For one, timezones must be correctly set (my template defaults to US/Eastern, since I'm over in New Hampshire). Then, certain characters, like commas and colons (and probably others) need to be escaped with a backslash, else iCal will stop reading the event at the point of unescaped character. In Movable Type, you can sorta accomplish this by using <MTEntryTitle dirify="">, which will turn your event name into something like "ical_and_blogging", which isn't ideal. Finally, and perhaps most annoying: URLs aren't clickable, so I can't easily jump off to read the complete entry.
UPDATE, 2002-09-12: Solved the encoding issues with a Movable Type plugin, added a DESCRIPTION (to supplement the SUMMARY) and customized the name of the calendar when loaded into iCal. See more and the latest template here. Been chatting with some other people as well - some movement in this area, it seems. Good, good. Sidenote: Thanks go out to redmonk who gave patient and helpful comments whilst I rapidly barked out "Refresh! RefressHH!" over and over again from the dark dungeons of a Windows 2000 machine (Gasp! I know. Hey, I multi-task).
UPDATE, 2002-09-12 (later): Huh. iCal chokes if your calendar has Mac linefeeds. Also, Slashdot has been converted by Mike Krus of NewsIsFree.com. More information about both is available in my last update of the night. Also, how to make clickable URLs as per one of the Talk Back comments (below).
Done anything neat with iCal and subscriptions? Let me know!

RomanceClass.com Advice
You are going to have to bring it up again, pleasantly and lovingly.
Figure out what you want and explain it to him.
Perhaps you want to live together and work on saving money (maybe you could decide together on how much you need to save); getting married (a simple marriage with a estimated date like a year from now); having children.
If he is unwilling to discuss this or if he won't discuss it realistically you had better realize that maybe you aren't going to get married. Then decide whether you want to stay with him for an indeterminate time until "something happens."
Can either of your parents help out financially?
Good luck! George

ICYMI: Operation Choke Point Lawsuit Proceeds to Discovery
Section: Public Policy | In The News
Published: 09/29/2015
ICYMI: Operation Choke Point Lawsuit Proceeds to Discovery
A federal judge on Friday ruled that the Community Financial Services Association (CFSA) may move forward with its lawsuit against government regulators over Operation Choke Point, the back-room program that seeks to eliminate legitimate short-term lenders' access to the banking system. The lawsuit will now proceed to the discovery phase.
The ruling, issued by Judge Gladys Kessler of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, acknowledged that lenders have a valid claim for the court's consideration. "Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged that their liberty interests are implicated by defendants' alleged actions and that the alleged stigma has deprived them of their rights to bank accounts and their chosen line of business, so as to state a claim for violation of constitutional due process," Judge Kessler wrote.
CFSA CEO Dennis Shaul applauded the decision. "Today's ruling validates our decision to engage in litigation to protect lawful, regulated businesses from the banking agencies' illegal Operation Choke Point," Shaul said. "We are gratified by the Court's decision and look forward to moving forward with our case and having our day in court."
FDIC OIG Report Reaffirms Payday Lenders Were Uniquely Targeted
The decision comes on the heels of the FDIC Inspector General's findings that the FDIC specifically targets payday lenders. The IG's report reinforces previously uncovered documents by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee detailing senior bank examiners' personal, ideological disdain for payday lending – for instance, a senior FDIC examiner wrote that he "literally cannot stand payday," and effectively ordered banks to terminate all relationships with the industry.
The FDIC IG report concludes that the director of the FDIC's Division of Depositor and Consumer Protection did nothing to discourage or stop other FDIC officials from urging banks to discontinue relationships with short-term lenders, even though such actions were inconsistent with official FDIC policy and guidance. Three of the six FDIC regional directors believed that there was an expectation from FDIC executives to discourage institutions from conducting business with payday lenders, the report revealed. The report noted that in certain communications with banks, FDIC personnel "used moral suasion to discourage [banks] from adopting payday lending products or providing ACH processing for payday lenders."
That "moral suasion" was felt by bank executives as well. Several banks reported feeling pressured to terminate the accounts of certain merchants, as outlined by the FDIC's "high-risk" hit list. According to the FDIC report, "This perception was most prevalent with respect to payday lenders."
In April, Advance America and CFSA amended their lawsuit to contend that agencies have not ended Operation Choke Point, as they claim, but rather have expanded their ideological campaign to end short-term lending.
Additional coverage of the decision can be found online here and here.

Re: Remove the duplication in Hash valuesby SimonClinch (Deacon)

|Need Help??
Update: You probably want just arrays (ie reconsider the storage model) of [0..9] and to iterate them afresh for each key iteration of the containing hash when reading and writing to the hash.
Oops a cow flew by. Therefore a corrected response: There need to be clearer rules for the deletion - must the solution be contiguous? ie must it allow gaps if there is no other way to include a set that doesn't overlap another - what if two ranges overlap but are of the same size with one higher than the other - how is a winner selected between them?

Ground water in the Fresno area, California

AbstractThe Fresno area of California uses about 140,000 acre-feet of ground water a year for municipal and domestic purposes. An average of 2,000,000 acre-feet of water a year is pumped for irrigation. Major sources of recharge are deep penetration of irrigation water (80 percent) and seepage from canals, rivers, and streams (15 percent). Ground water occurs under unconfined and confined conditions; most water is pumped from the unconfined, alluvial aquifer. Ground-water quality is generally suitable for domestic and irrigation uses, although hardness and concentrations of nitrates and dissolved solids are of local concern. Water levels in the unconfined aquifer declined about 25 feet in the period 1947-1976. Levels in the confined aquifer declined about 100 feet in the period 1954-1976. Increased reliance on ground water for irrigation during the drought period will accelerate water-level declines. (Woodard-USGS)

By Victor J. Blue/Bloomberg/Getty Images.
It's no surprise that the ruthless corporate raider would be attracted to Trump. After all, Icahn built his fortune (now a slightly diminished $17 billion, according to Forbes) by taking over companies by any means necessary. His favorite tactic, shareholder activism, leverages his partial ownership of a company—either directly or via a proxy—to criticize its management, break it apart, and subsequently restructure it according to his whims, similar to how, say, Trump might deal with a recalcitrant Congress. It's also helped him build a successful conglomerate with diversified holdings in home decor, transportation, and energy.
But Icahn's influence, much like Trump's, also hinges on how much noise he can make, particularly when it comes to criticizing a company's management. "For too long and for a variety of reasons, shareholders have been complicit in allowing management excesses and incompetence by not taking a stand," Icahn has written. He loves taking that message as fast and far as he can, boasting several social-media profiles, including his own Tumblr account. The Wall Street Journal has noted that a single tweet from Icahn could "sometimes drive up stock prices."

Bavarian Food in Berlin Jul 24, 2010
If you're in Berlin and in the mood for some Bavarian Kitchen food this is a good place to go for your white sausage or Wiener Schnitzel. It's a small restaurant so it fills up fast, making a reservation would be an option. I've eaten there twice and the food was always good although the service largely depends upon your server.
The location is slightly hidden on a quite street so sitting at one of the outside tables is a great option if the weather is good.

I have removed the requirement for manual approval of new users' posts in the Welcome thread; my hope is that this change will result in more active members, as fewer people will post, not see their post appear, post again, and then give up. Several weeks later when I finally realise there are new posts awaiting moderation and approve them, it's too late -- the new users have forgotten about us.
I looked into a mod for the forum which would provide email notifications to admins or moderators when a new user made their first post, but I could not find any which functioned, and thus was left to remember to check the forum every single day for new posts (which I obviously frequently failed to do). This change might result in more spam, but we'll see how this works out.
Olarom to all our new members who thought they had been ignored.

Copyright © 2003 by Tony Medley
Let's start out
by being truthful. This is a movie about three lesbians, not suicide, which is
what I thought going in. Not
your run of the mill lesbians, either.
This is in-your-face lesbianism.
It tells of three generations of lesbian women, Virginia Woolf
(Nicole Kidman with a new nose), circa 1920s writing Mrs. Dalloway, Laura
Brown (Julianne Moore, reproducing her role in Far From Heaven, circa 1950s
reading Mrs. Dalloway), and present day Clarissa Vaughan (Meryl Streep),
who's living openly with another woman, and is trying to lend support to
Brown's son, Richard (Ed Harris), who's dying of AIDS, so we must assume
he's homosexual, too.
This is a feminist
diatribe and it's true to its core as it shows men as marginalized, at
best. When Laura Brown deserts
her family, leaving them with a loving father, Dan Brown (John C. Reilly),
apparently the family disintegrates, leaving one with the impression that
the filmmakers believe that a loving father is incapable of raising a family
without a woman present. Woolf's
husband, Leonard (Stephan Dillane), is just a wuss, who does whatever
Virginia wants.
This has a PG
rating but it's got several scenes of women kissing each other on the
lips. The worst is Woolf giving
her sister a long, passionate kiss firmly on the lips, implying, I guess,
that she was not only a lesbian, but an incestuous one as well.
Frankly, I think this is far more morally reprehensible than looking
at a woman's nipple, which guarantees an "R" rating.
To be utterly truthful, I see nothing at all wrong with looking at a
woman's nipple. I've never
understood why that will get an "R" rating while showing someone blowing
someone else's head apart right there in living color won't.
Why is violence tolerated and a woman's nipple not?
But I digress.
I didn't find
this movie the least bit depressing (well, wait a minute…having to sit
through 114 minutes of this dreck was pretty depressing).
Three of the four principals were suicidal.
They are so selfishly self-centered that they are completely
unsympathetic. It was all about
them. Nobody thought about
anybody else, except Vaughan, who, for some reason, tried to help Richard
Brown. I thought all of them
should commit suicide so the movie could end mercifully and quickly.
Instead it runs for 114 minutes.
One hundred and fourteen preposterously self-congratulating minutes
of shots of people thinking and musing about themselves.
To think that
Julianne Moore received an Oscar nomination for this is astonishing.
Her performance is a perfect duplication of her performance in Far
From Heaven. Either she's not acting or her acting is terminally
one-dimensional. And this
Director (Stephen Daldry) does as dismal a job of recreating the '50s as
did Todd Haynes. There was more
to the '50s than cars with large fins and dated fashion.
Neither of these guys has a clue about how to recreate an era with
feeling. I'd hate to see them
try the Civil War!
This film is
political correctness to the nth degree.
And everyone feels so sorry for themselves.
Oh, woe is me! I felt if
they were so involved with the sorry mess their attitudes had made of their
lives, they should end it all. Get
it over with! There's a famous defense sometimes used in Texas murder
trials, that the victim deserved it. The
way they're presented here, Woolf and both Browns are so egocentric and
inconsiderate, quick suicide would have been a blessing to everyone
(especially the audience).
But what we got
were long dialogues, and long, introspective pauses.
The Hours is a pretentious, boring piece of crap.
Movies are an entertainment. People
go to them to be entertained. One
may argue that the special effects of things like Daredevil and the violence
and profanity of Dark Blue are entertaining.
I don't, but some people may find them as such, and I have no
argument with their right to that opinion. But there's nothing
entertaining about The Hours.
All the critics
rave about the acting. Horse
pucky. Nothing this boring could have acting that was any good.
If the acting were any good it wouldn't be so boring.
And this isn't just my opinion.
I've only talked to four people who enjoyed this.
Most, including women, abhorred it; many walked out. The person with
whom I attended the film was a woman who fell asleep several times and was
so angry with me for insisting we attend that she didn't speak to me for
three minutes after the film ended (her personal record for silence!).
I can't wrap
this up without mentioning the syrupy music (Phillip Glass).
It blares throughout. It
makes an unentertaining movie even less enjoyable.
Don't eschew
attending this film that takes itself oh, so seriously, out of fear you
might be depressed. You won't
care enough about the disagreeable characters to find anything about them
depressing, except their continuance. Unless you enjoy tedium, I'd avoid this like the plague.
