SAN FRANCISCO — Owners of the Nintendo Wii can finally stop waving their video game controllers in the air and sink back onto the couch.
Nintendo is bringing Netflix's online streaming video service to its Wii gaming console, the most popular in the industry, the companies plan to announce Wednesday. The service lets subscribers choose from a catalog of generally older movies and television shows and watch them instantly.
The deal is further evidence of a movement by makers of game consoles to broaden their appeal by positioning them as a bridge between the living room television and a wider world of online multimedia.
So far those efforts have not been enough to calm anxieties about the overall direction of the $16.8 billion video game business. The industry is threatened by a dearth of popular new franchises, which tend to attract gamers to an endless number of sequels, as well as the sudden rise of cheap games for smartphones and free casual games on social networks.
"You just have to wonder if people are going to buy prepackaged $60 video games in the future," said Mark Mahaney, managing director for Internet research at Citigroup. "If you are a console maker, you better quickly hurry to add more functionality and features to your console."Continue reading the main story
Nintendo's rivals are generally further along in that effort. The Sony PlayStation 3 has a Blu-ray disc player and can use Sony's own online movie store. Microsoft has outfitted the Xbox 360 with its Zune high-definition movie store and allows users to chat online while they watch films together. Both of those consoles already offer the Netflix service.
The Wii has had only minimal video material, but it will take a big step forward in this regard with Netflix, when the Wii adds the service this spring. Wii owners with a broadband Internet connection who have at least a $9-a-month subscription to Netflix's DVD-by-mail service will be able to use the online service at no additional cost.
But Wii owners will need to receive a free software disc in the mail from Netflix and put it into their console when they want to watch a movie, as on the PS3.
The Wii, unlike the PS3 and Xbox, is not powerful enough to display high-definition streaming video. Some analysts and industry observers expect Nintendo to announce a new Wii HD version of its console next year.
Though it is now more than three years old, the original Wii continues to charm casual gamers with its unique style of game play, which involves physical gestures. Nintendo said it sold three million units in the United States alone over the holidays, outselling both of its rivals, and has sold a total of 26 million in this country.
However, both Sony and Microsoft are expected to add gesture-style game play to their devices over the next year. And the PS3, at least, appears to be slowly gaining ground on the Wii. Sony introduced a slimmed-down version of the PS3 last year and said it sold 3.8 million units worldwide in December, a 76 percent increase over the year before.
By adding Netflix to its service, Nintendo may be making a bid for customers who are considering switching. "Nintendo is saying, look, we are doing all the same stuff. You want to remain connected to us," said Pelham Smithers, an independent video game analyst.
Reggie Fils-Aime, president of Nintendo of America, said the Wii had always been primarily about bringing video games to the mass market, including people who normally would not play a violent shoot-'em-up or pick up a traditional video game controller.
But, Mr. Fils-Aime said, "from Day 1, we always had other capabilities within the console." The deal with Netflix, he said, "is a continuation of an effort to bring more and more entertainment to consumers who interact with the Wii."
The deal gives Netflix a prominent hat trick in the video game console market and underscores its recent emphasis on its digital streaming business. The company, based in Los Gatos, Calif., now has more than 11 million subscribers to its traditional DVD-by-mail business. But more of those people are also watching movies and shows online: more than 50 percent, up from 20 percent a year and a half ago when Netflix first started adding its streaming service to devices like the Xbox.
"Our growth in the last two years has been propelled in large part by our investments in streaming content and in the streaming platform," said Reed Hastings, Netflix's chief executive. "When the Wii application ships, it's going to really open up a large additional opportunity."
One part of that opportunity is to expand the somewhat dusty catalog of films available online. Hollywood studios make mostly older movies available for streaming on Netflix: the 1976 version of "Carrie," for instance, but not the 2002 remake.
Mr. Hastings says the size of the streaming catalog correlates to the size of the checks it can write to Hollywood studios. So as Netflix adds customers — and cuts costs — it can gradually expand the catalog. Analysts say they believe it costs Netflix about 5 cents to stream a movie online, versus 60 cents to mail a disc to and from a customer.
Netflix also hopes that the accessibility of its online service on devices like the Wii will encourage subscribers to stick around, helping it cut down on marketing expenses. Terms of the Nintendo deal were not disclosed.
As its digital service expands, Netflix subscribers who want to ditch, say, an expensive $25-a-month plan, which allows them to keep four DVDs at a time, may be more easily persuaded to cut back to a cheaper plan instead of canceling outright.
"Netflix is hoping more people will sample the streaming service and like it, and that it will ultimately limit churn," said John Blackledge, a senior analyst at Credit Suisse.
Analysts have been expecting a deal between Netflix and Nintendo for some time. Mr. Hastings said the Wii's unusual interface, as well as the specifications of its hardware, created technical challenges to getting the service to work properly.
"The other platforms have a pretty consistent and well-known paradigm, but the Wii is unique," he said. "All of those things have taken a long time of experimentation and refinement."Continue reading the main story

Xgal_mj needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 85 designs submitted by 26 freelance designers.
Hangar 47
We're a small team working in a room about the size of a garage with desks we got from the trash. We've got great machines because we've been playing FPSs and MMOs for way too long. We've come together as a bunch of pros that have shipped games for others and now want to design and develop online FPS and MMOs that have new kinds of game play (risky) instead of high production value. We want to present ourselves as pros, the David that can take on the Goliaths by taking our favorite games to levels the big guys won't go because of the risk.
mostly 13-26 year old guys who can't get enough of FPSs and MMOs. They read Shack News and Kotaku. They're a bit geeky - and smart - oh, and a bit anti-social. Not because they mean to be, its just their priorities are...um...skewed to playing these games and talking about them. They constantly think how they are going to beat the next boss or build up their character.
As far as the design, as artists, we know the importance of not being too prescriptive. This allows you to bring out your best design skills for our logo. The logo will be used on our web site, in game, on business cards, in print (reviews). The name: Hangar 47 has to be very clear to read. It's hard core gaming brought to our gamers by gamers who want to share their love for these kind of games.
We'll need PNG for review. Final art in PhotoShop - need to be able to produce high quality logos (potential to be blown up on signs at events).

Under the aegis of the Mangroves for the Future Initiative, a Colloquium was held on 6 November, 2009 at the Hector Kobbekaduwa Agrarian Research & Training Institute (HARTI), Wijerama Mawata, Colombo.
In Sri Lanka, over the past few decades there has been considerable interest in mangrove-related activities. Considerable funding had been provided for numerous mangrove establishment projects, particularly in the aftermath of the 2004 Tsunami, with the expectation of contributing toward improving ecosystems and saving life and property in the event of coastal hazards. In the recent times, IUCN Sri Lanka has had the opportunity to review a number of mangrove initiatives, and has observed uneven progress. These observations have also led to other questions such as the choice of site for replanting, suitability of different species to different localities and conditions, perceived societal values and benefits, effects of newly-planted mangroves on sedimentation and hydrology of the area and the expected benefits to maintaining ecosystem health and productivity and its contribution to biodiversity.
In the light of the above, this colloquium was organized by IUCN to address and critique on the field experiences on mangrove rehabilitation efforts with due consideration to various scientific aspects.
Fifty-one participants, including the Director General of Department of Wildlife Conservation, Director of the Coast Conservation Department, Deputy Conservator of Forests, several Divisional Forest Officers, Scientists and researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and stakeholder agencies discussed and debated on a number of themes, relating to mangrove replanting, their successes and failures, and possible effects on ecosystem health and productivity with a view to develop best practices.
IUCN members in Sri Lanka also participated in the event, and those that showed particular interest were Department of Wildlife Conservation, Forest Department, Wildlife and Nature Protection Society, Environmental Foundation Ltd, Sewalanka Foundation, Green Movement of Sri Lanka and the Small Fishers' Federation, Sri Lanka.
The practitioners were appreciative of the opportunity to share their experiences with the scientists, as there were hardly any opportunities in the past for such a dialogue. There was a consensus amongst the participants that mangrove planting and restoration should be scientifically based and should consider the resilience of ecosystems to regenerate themselves with minimal interventions after natural disasters. It was agreed that a compendium of best practices should be developed based on the outcomes of the colloquium.
IUCN Sri Lanka, under the Mangroves for the Future Initiative will hold a satellite colloquium in Batticaloa in the Eastern Province on 24 November, 2009, where there has been a considerable effort after the tsunami to restore large areas of mangroves. The satellite colloquium will provide an opportunity for the academia, practitioners and policy makers in that Province to share the experiences to enrich the process of producing the best practices.

The Colony Theater Company just unwrapped an early holiday gift for lovers of sweet romantic comedy — the magic-centric "Bell, Book and Candle." John van Druten's witty play moves quickly and softly, like a black cat sneaking by stealthily in the night.
There's very little substance to the shenanigans, but it succeeds on the level of slight, sweet time killer. The subtle narrative contains no intricate plot twists or visceral subtext, but what ends up onstage is inoffensive and pleasant while it lasts. Most uniquely, "Bell, Book and Candle" has to be one of the few plays appropriate to produce at both Halloween and Christmas.
"Bell, Book and Candle" drops us in the middle of a coven of witches on Christmas Eve, but at first you might mistake these suave occultists for extras from "Mad Men." They dress stylishly and drink booze constantly, and their after-hours behavior immediately recalls some of the crazy antics on that TV show. But these are witches, not advertising executives. The characters do, however, share a penchant for guilt-free hook-ups in the Big Apple on a regular basis.
Gillian Holroyd (Willow Geer) is a "modern" gal — at least for the year 1953. She lives alone in a gorgeous brownstone apartment in the Murray Hill district of New York City. Gillian is steadfastly single and unattached, mainly because witches of her kind cannot fall in love. If she ever experiences true love, she could lose her magical powers forever.
Gillian normally uses her abilities to cast spells and cause general havoc in the neighborhood. Her rakish brother Nicky (Will Bradley) focuses his energies on picking up girls. Gillian's silly Aunt Queenie (Mary Jo Catlett) likes to pull pranks on unsuspecting residents in the building.
When upstairs neighbor Shepherd Henderson (Michael A. Newcomer) stops by one day to complain about Aunt Queenie snooping around, something new and different begins to bubble up inside Gillian. She's intent on keeping Shepherd away from a rival from her youth, but there's some intense attraction she's aware of as well.
So Gillian casts a spell, and Shepherd is instantly smitten. He dumps his girlfriend, slacks off on his job, and begins spending every waking minute romancing Gillian. The staunchly independent gal chafes at the suffocation, and conflict looms on the horizon.
Director Richard Israel handles tone and pace well until the energy tails off toward the end. He made the correct decision to combine the second and third acts, which keeps the running time a proper length and makes the resolution more satisfying.
Other than a woeful attempt at using a poorly stuffed cat to stand in for Gillian's magical "familiar" Pyewacket, the technical aspects of the show are top notch.
Stephen Gifford's scenic design brings Gillian's expansive bachelorette pad to vibrant life.
Key art by Ricky Vodka — including Picasso-style paintings and a creepy voodoo mask — add much-needed authenticity to the witchcraft.
And costumes by Sharon McGunigle pop with vintage charm, from the eye-popping purples and pinks on slinky Gillian to the wizardly frocks worn by Aunt Queenie.
The cast is fine if unmemorable. Bradley brings snark and energy lacking in some of the others. TV addicts will instantly recognize Catlett from "Diff'rent Strokes" or one of her dozens of appearances on other iconic shows.
Unfortunately, some of their assets are wasted, as this supposed romantic comedy gets bogged down trying to say something important. When it sticks to the shtick, "Bell, Book and Candle" works the best of any Christmas/Halloween/Magic show around.
JAMES PETRILLO is a screenwriter and actor from Los Angeles.
What: "Bell, Book and Candle" by John van Druten
Where: The Colony Theatre Company, 555 N. Third St., Burbank, inside the Burbank Town Center parking structure
When: 8 p.m. Thursday and Friday, 3 and 8 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday through Nov. 21
Tickets: $20 to $42 (student, senior and group discounts available)

Bonus: Question-and-answer talk-back performance with the cast on Nov. 11, immediately following the show

Maybe by sharing my story someone who has gone through the same can help me out.
I have had a UTI for the past 3 months, had all sorts of tests - no cysts, no kidney stones, no chlamydia. Im female, 29. When I first went in for the infection (the UTI wasn't full blown, didn't hurt too much) they tested my urine there and said I had an infeciton.
After antibiotics didn't work I had a urine culture (3 days later) my results showed slightly high white blood cells, no bacteria. Went on more antibiotics. Still had UTI symptoms. Then I started to get lower back pain, thought it was kidney infection.. but now I don't think so since it isn't my kidneys that hurt, it is much lower, I think it is from taking all these different antibiotics.
My most recent urine test showed no infection at all (I had been on antibiotics 3 days prior). I still had lower back pain, a little pain after urination.
I stopped taking antibiotics for 2 weeks and just 2 days ago I got a full blown UTI, very painful (I have had many UTIs in the past and it is exactly the same). I went back on antibiotics (Nitrofurantoin). Now I can't tell if it is going away or not.
I hate taking all these antibiotics, the docs tell me to stop but at the same time they don't tell me what it is. A major problem is that im in a foreign country for some months and I don't speak the language well.
Please anyone with similar experiences contact me by clicking on my name above or jsruby22 -at- yahoo -dot- com

Bangor Fireworks Good Decision or Bad? Tell Us What You Think! [POLL]
It was a nasty, rainy night in the Queen City, as Hurricane Arthur made his way up the East Coast. But, despite the rain, Bangor' 4th of July Fireworks went off as scheduled. Was it the right decision? Take our poll and tell us what you think.
Facebook was full of comments from folks who had strong opinions about the decision. I even saw a couple of videos.
But I want to know what you think. Did the 4th of July corporation make the right decision? Should they have postponed the display until the weather was better? Do you think it was a waste of money to hold them in the rain? We're very interested in the public opinion!
One more note; if you didn't like the decision, remember that the fireworks are not put on by the City of Bangor, but rather by a volunteer corporation. It would have been their decision. So take a minute to answer our poll and let us know....was it the right choice?

Microsoft is hoping to position Office Open XML (OOXML) as an alternative to the Open Document Format, which has already received International Standards Organization (ISO) approval. However, Microsoft's OOXML proposal has had a tough time convincing standards groups to go along. In September, a proposal that called for OOXML to receive fast-track approval was voted down by standards groups from countries participating in the ISO meeting in Geneva.
The bad news keeps coming. European regulators have now decided to examine whether Microsoft violated antitrust laws during the OOXML standardization struggle. EU antitrust officials want Microsoft to turn over information about its conduct during the standards-setting process. The company already faces probes into the integration of its Internet Explorer browser into Office and the way Office interoperates (or fails to do so) with competitors' software.
Microsoft has support for OOXML, but also faces opposition from a group led by IBM. This group maintains that Microsoft's OOXML formats are too complex for third-party implementation, giving Microsoft an unfair advantage as the only company able to implement the spec correctly. Office 2007 will likely dominate the market anyway, but getting OOXML approval from international standardization groups will ease the adoption of the suite by organizations and governments bent on storing all their documents in standardized, open formats.

Hi everyone -
I'm struggling to find a source for electives that will satisfy the requirements for the MA in Strategic Studies... For any AOS - if you had success getting an elective approved that's outside of the Naval War College, I'd like to know the name of the College/University and if you thought the course was good or not. If it's not an on-line course, that's o.k. Hopefully others might find some use for this as well.

The teenage daughter of troubled former NBA All-Star Antoine Walker is being kept from attending private school because her father has not paid the girl's past tuition bills, her mother said in court today.
Donna Grant appeared in Cook County Court on Wednesday morning for an emergency hearing, hoping to force Walker to pay past due tuition bills to the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools where their daughter attends.
But a Circuit Court judge ruled that he could take no action on the matter because of Walker's pending bankruptcy case.
Judge Michael Ian Bender said the federal courts will have to grant permission for Grant to continue to pursue tuition payments from...

My pancake conundrum: My husband doesn't like them. I do. So when it comes to a batch of pancakes it's either – make a couple of pancakes and let the rest dissipate into inedibility in the fridge, or eat the whole batch. Both options leave much to be desired. I am trying to avoid food waste and I already know that I can't eat a whole batch of pancakes (without rendering myself totally useless for the rest of the day).
The third, absolutely intolerable and unacceptable, option is not to make pancakes at all. Which is just not going to happen.
The best I can do for now is reduce the pancake or crepe recipes I try by as much as I confidently can and then plan to breakfast on pancakes, or anything similar using the same batter, 2 days in a row (leaving the leftover batter to sit in the fridge overnight, which I think is ok because crepe batter is supposed to benefit from an overnight rest). Hopefully, aside from the breakfast pancakes or crepes, I can work it out so I have friends over to whom I can serve a dessert or appetizer made with the excess batter (maybe Nutella crepes or smoked salmon rolls).
Or I can wait until a brilliant blogger like Suzana of Home Gourmets declares Pancakes to be the theme of the next round of Hay Hay it's Donna Day!
Chocolate Filled Crepes with Cinnamon Crust
(adapted from Donna Hay Magazine, issue 34, page 138)
- 85 grams caster sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup flour, sifted
- 1 tablespoon caster sugar, extra
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 + 1/8 cup (3 oz) single/pouring cream
- 1 cup milk
- 65 grams grated dark chocolate
- 25 grams unsalted butter, melted
– Place the sugar and cinnamon on a plate and mix.
– Place the flour and the extra sugar in a bowl and mix to combine.
– Place the eggs, cream, and milk in a separate bowl and whisk to combine.
– Gradually add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, whisking until smooth. Allow to stand for 20 minutes.
– Heat a lightly greased non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/3 cup of the batter and swirl to cover the base of the pan.
– Cook crepes for 1-2 minutes in each side until golden. Place on non-stick baking paper and repeat with the rest of the batter (or just make the amount you need and place the rest of the batter in the fridge like I did).
– Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of chocolate over each crepe, fold in half, and then fold in half again. Brush both sides with melted butter and press into the cinnamon sugar mixture.
– Cooked the sugared crepes in a lightly greased non-stick pan (high heat) for about a minute on each side, or until the sugar is caramelized.
The combination of the dark chocolate and the subtle cinnamon flavour was perfect! But what really takes this over the edge into goodness oblivion is the caramel-ly exterior, all sweet stickiness and crunchy edges. I can see this being a fantastic dessert but, being a creature of breakfast, I had it in the morning with my coffee…bliss! I'm sure it'll be great with a bit of vanilla ice cream too!
The recipe I have posted here is my halved version. I made two crepes for my breakfast and then used some of the batter to make smoked salmon rolls (with cream cheese, sour cream, dill, capers, and green onions) for a casual night of drinks at our flat. I know the batter is supposed to be for a sweet crepe, but the crepes themselves weren't sweet at all so I thought it would be fine to use for a savory appetizer. Be that as it may, I was still left with a little batter that eventually had to be tossed 🙁 So to any pancake/crepe experts out there I have three questions:
1) How long can you keep pancake/crepe batter safely in the fridge?
2) Any other variations you like? Savory and sweet suggestions are welcome!
3) Do you have a really low yield pancake/crepe recipe? 🙂

I am a 41 years old and about 7 years ago I started having pain in my left bicept that you would radiate down my entire arm. The pain would come and go and over a period of about a year it became constant. After the first year I started having pain in my right arm and it also is constant. The pain is a throbbing, aching, deep muscle pain that radiates down the arm. I have been to many doctors and even have been to the Mayo Clinic trying to get answers on what the cause to this could possibly be. I have had the following surgeries: They rerouted the Ulnar Nerve in my left arm that didn't relieve any pain. I traveled to Florida to have Surgery on my spine where they releived pressure in the c4, c5 are of the spinal cord. This also did nothing to relive any of the pain. I recently had a Spinal stimulator put in my lower back with the stimilation going to each one of my arms. This has helped some but the pain is still overwhelming. I have been on many medications, morphine, oxycotin and many more hard narcotic drugs and the only drug that seems to have any affect is Ultram. It dulls the pain in my arms a little and with the spinal stimulator it makes life at least bearable. I believe we have tried everything and the Doctors don't know what else to do. Does anybody have any thoughts on what this could be?
I would appreciate your input..

Centering Prayer
Centering Prayer is a receptive method of silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer, prayer in which we experience God's presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself. This method of prayer is both a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship.
Centering Prayer is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer. Rather, it adds depth of meaning to all prayer and facilitates the movement from more active modes of prayer - verbal, mental or affective prayer - into a receptive prayer of resting in God. Centering Prayer emphasizes prayer as a personal relationship with God and as a movement beyond conversation with Christ to communion with Christ.

Anyone who eats food is a meal planner
You may fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants and plan tonight's 6:00 family dinner at 5:45, which may result in a "fun" trip to the drive-through, but at some point you have to make a decision about what you and your family are going to eat, which may be something out of a microwavable tray, which is not a good meal plan.
A bowl of cereal, a trip to the drive-through, or a trip to the microwave; these are the meals that happen when we practice flying-by-the-seat-of-our-pants-meal-planning, which is how my family survived before we started Plan to Eat.
We would often have a refrigerator that was completely empty, or it was full of food we couldn't use. We hated grocery shopping because we would buy what we didn't need while forgetting the things we did. Our "fun" and "spontaneous" meal plans, which actually lacked any form of a plan, landed us at restaurants more than we wanted. Our bank account suffered because eating out is expensive. Our health suffered because what we were eating was not good for us.
We needed a good meal planner, and out of this need Plan to Eat was born. Now we want to share it with you so that you don't have to fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants-meal-plan anymore either.
Dinner happens every night. Be ready for it.
What is Plan to Eat?
Plan to Eat is an online meal planner app that allows you to add and organize recipes, drag those recipes onto a calendar to plan them, and our software automatically creates your shopping list based on your planned recipes. By providing tools that streamline the meal planning process we equip households to eat better food, eat together, save money at the grocery store, and have a less stressful cooking experience in the kitchen.
Why we do what we do.
Our physical and emotional health is directly tied to what we eat, and the best way to ensure we are getting the highest quality food is to prepare it at home.
Without a system to organize recipes, plan menus, and compile shopping lists, our kitchens will lack the ingredients we need to prepare our meals.
Our hope is that Plan to Eat will equip you to prepare delicious, wholesome food at home that nourishes both body and soul.
How we work.
We are not a startup.
We are not trying to grow as fast as possible (by making our service free) so we can sell our customer base and move on to the next project.
We don't like ads.
Especially in the context of a web application like Plan to Eat.
We have intentionally chosen not to seek investors or borrow money
This gives us the freedom to focus on what is best for our customers and our own family.
We try to be very clear & up front about the cost of a Plan to Eat Subscription.
It's $4.95/month or $39/year. We do not ask for credit card information before starting a 30 day trial. We do not want to "trick" you into paying us because you forgot to cancel. We offer a no-questions-asked refund policy. By default, we do not automatically bill you when your yearly subscription expires.
If your subscription expires...
We do not remove your account but instead suspend it so you can renew at any point.
We do not hold your recipes & information hostage.
You can always export all of your recipes, even after your subscription has expired.
We believe these ideas are just common sense.
They reflect our commitment to treating our customers the way we want to be treated.

As regular SLAM! Wrestling readers and loyal TNA fans know, Kevin Nash was hospitalized on Saturday, thus putting him out of action for last night's Bound for Glory pay-per-view. That might not seem like too big a deal except for one small detail: Nash was supposed to be wrestling for the NWA Title in the main event.
Naturally, TNA rolled with the punches, and while I don't want to spoil the outcome in case you haven't seen or read about it yet, they came up with something that almost certainly turned out better than what was originally scheduled.
That got me thinking. Bound for Glory sure wasn't the first pay-per-view to experience a last second change of plans, and it absolutely won't be the last. I decided to take a virtual stroll through the SLAM! archives to jog my memory of when it had happened before. What I discovered was that the period between 1998 and 2000 -- perhaps not coincidentally, the same period of time that saw wrestling start the period of decline it still inhabits today -- was the Golden Age of last minute booking. Usually surprising and sometimes unintentionally humorous, fans got treated to more bait-and-switch jobs in those three years than I remembered. And lo and behold, a column idea was born.
Take a walk with me and relive the "Best and Worst of Booking on the Fly."
No Way Out -- Feb. 16, 1998
When Shawn Michaels couldn't go, it seemed like a pretty good chance to add someone interesting to the DX team of Triple H and the New Age Outlaws as they got set to take on Stone Cold Steve Austin, Owen Hart, Terry Funk and Cactus Jack. Who did we get? Savio Vega. Enough said.
Slamboree -- May 18, 1998
It could have been the greatest main event of all time. Eric Bischoff and Vince McMahon, the creative mind behind WCW and the owner of the WWF (before the panda set made them change the initials) were set to go head to head in a bout that would rock the very core of the professional wrestling world. One problem: Vinnie Mac didn't show. And without a suitable replacement, nWo chief Bischoff was left alone in the ring as the ref counted McMahon out. What's that? The match was a joke? Never mind.
Starrcade -- Dec. 28, 1998
Bam Bam Bigelow was supposed to take on Scott Hall, I guess in a "I Hate Goldberg More" Match. The bout never took place, though both men were on hand to interfere in the night's main event, which featured the end of Goldberg's infamous winning streak at the hands of Kevin Nash. Hall's stun gun had something to do with that, if I recall.
Over the Edge -- May 24, 1999
Not everything on this list is a happy memory. One of the most tragic moments in the history of wrestling, and certainly the most tragic broadcast I ever witnessed, occurred when Owen Hart plunged to his death before the third match of the night. Of course, there was no replacement, but the rest of the card did go on in a move that still gets debated to this day.
Heroes of Wrestling -- Oct. 18, 1999
I didn't watch this one, which by all accounts was a complete train wreck. The main event was supposed to be King King Bundy battling Yokozuna, but Yoko apparently was in no shape to hold down a singles match. Circumstances turned the final bout into a tag match pitting Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart and Bundy against Yokozuna and Jake "The Snake" Roberts. Viewers' memories were the big losers, I'm sure.
Halloween Havoc -- Oct. 25, 1999
Just a week after the Heroes debacle, we had bizarre happening in WCW. Hulk Hogan was set to challenge Sting for the WCW Title, but the Hulkster was feuding with the new writing team of Vince Russo and Ed Ferrera, who had recently defected from the WWE. Or was it still WWF back then? In any case, Hogan came out in street clothes and laid down for the Stinger, who made an open challenge to anyone in the back for later in the show. It was accepted by Goldberg, who beat Sting to win the belt.
Survivor Series -- Nov. 15, 1999
The advertised main event was a three-way dance between Triple H, The Rock and Stone Cold, but Austin was a late scratch. The Big Show took his place, and in typical wrestling storyline fashion, the Rattlesnake's absence was attributed to a hit-and-run incident early in the show. In reality, Austin needed neck surgery that would keep him out of action for almost a year. At least the WWE remembered why they said Steve was out, as they showed unusual continuity by having Stone Cold hunt for the driver when he returned. The fun part of that storyline was seeing Rikishi get what was probably his biggest push, short-lived as it was.
Starrcade -- Dec. 20, 1999
Scott Hall (there's that guy again), no stranger to ladder matches, was scheduled for another one against Chris Benoit. A knee injury put the kibosh on that plan, and Jeff Jarrett stepped up to the plate to fill in. Benoit and Jarrett put on a heck of a show in a match that stands out in my mind as my last pleasant memory of Starrcade.
Great American Bash -- July 9, 2000
A bunch of guys who were already mentioned on this list were at it again, and it played out in dramatic fashion. Hogan and Jarrett were supposed to clash for the WCW Title, but what we saw was JJ laying down for Hollywood. Hogan blasted WCW verbally and walked off with the belt. Then Russo came out and unleashed some scathing blasts at Hogan while declaring the belt that he left with null and void. Russo gave the shot to someone who had worked hard for it for years, Booker T, and he responded with his first world championship. As you may have heard, he racked up four more after that.
Next time injury or illness throws a monkey wrench in a big pay-per-view, just remember that its happened plenty of times before. And all you future bookers out there, remember: not everything that's unplanned is bad.
Nick Tylwalk has been a SLAM! Wrestling contributor since 1998, and his column, Walkin' That Aisle with Nick Tylwalk, will appear every Monday. Comments, compliments and complaints will be fielded at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Milwaukee Board Certified Chiropractic Orthopedist and Herniated Disc Doctor writes: The answer is ... maybe. But the reason may not be as obvious as it seems. In nearly everyone who is overweight, losing body weight helps relieve back pain. This is because of the reduced force on the disc and joints. The more weight you carry, the more force is on the disc and joints. Then you have to use more energy to just plain stand up straight. That is the simple answer.
But for some people who are overweight it is absolutely crucial to reduce. If you are one of them you might have a lot of trouble healing if you don't lose weight. And it is not just based on how much overweight you are.
It depends on how sick your fat is.
That's right, there are different kinds of fat tissue in your body. Your body uses these different types of fat for different purposes. Some fat is used as a primary heat source for when you get really cold. This is a good kind of fat to have and it is usually the healthier kind.
The sick fat is the kind that is the problem. Some of the chemicals your body takes in either through food or air or skin are not the kind that the body uses for food or for building blocks. Eventually these chemicals may become stored in fat.
A small amount of this kind of fat is healthy. It is helpful as a storage depot for toxins that your liver has trouble getting rid of. Hopefully this is just a temporary situation until your liver can handle the load.
But over-feeding and toxic overload cause larger accumulations of fat tissue. This becomes the sick fat. It eventually becomes a source of inflammatory chemicals. This kind of inflammation is called meta-inflammation and is coming to be seen as contributing to many of the chronic diseases we get as we age. It makes everything more difficult to heal.
When there is chronic inflammation coming from places in the body other than where the injury in the back is, then it is harder to heal.
People who just hurt their back and unknowingly have this type of hidden meta-inflammation may become frustrated when it doesn't resolve the way they expect it to.
They heal poorly and continue to have pain long after the actual stress is relieved, the tissue stronger and the muscles strengthened. This is all due to the underlying low level or subclinical meta-inflammation.
That is why we sometimes have to recommend an anti-inflammatory lifestyle that includes weight loss goals to help you get over your back problem and back to a normal active life.
I suspect that there are many people who give in to back surgery who really didn't need it if they would just have reduced their chronic state of inflammation and stress.
Losing weight is good for many reasons, but you dont get healthy by losing weight, you lose weight by getting healthy. More on that next time.

Health advocates working to enroll uninsured Indiana residents through the federal exchange that opened Tuesday said most people appear to be reviewing the new marketplace at the center of the health care overhaul before actually buying insurance.
Indiana residents began creating accounts through the federal insurance exchange, also called a marketplace, along with residents of 35 other states where leaders opted to let the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services run their exchanges.
The exchange represents the core of President Barack Obama's sweeping health care overhaul, signed into law more than three years ago, which includes a mandate that residents have health insurance or face tax penalties.
For now, at least, it looks like residents are still trying to understand exactly what the exchange is and what their options are, said Marla Asberry, an outreach specialist with Open Door Health Services and one of the federal navigators assisting residents. Asberry and her staff spent the day fielding calls from residents with questions about the exchange.
"I could see the middle of the enrollment clear up to the end" being busy, she said Tuesday.
Customers must enroll by Dec. 15 for coverage to start Jan. 1. Customers have until the end of March to sign up in order to avoid tax penalties.
Opening day for the federal exchange was filled with extensive delays and technical problems, including missing buttons and password security questions on the online application. Federal officials attributed the slowdown to the surprisingly high volume of interest in the exchange on its first day of operation.
Danny Copeland, a 58-year-old retired pipefitter from Muncie, spent Monday and Tuesday looking over options on the federal website. By the time the exchange opened Tuesday, however, he said he was unable to get through to enroll in a plan.
"I understand it. This is the first day, and this is the first bug. So there's not much you can do about it today," he said.
Copeland, who has Type 2 diabetes, said he was glad to learn that the new law bars insurers from denying him coverage because of his condition. But he said he was concerned with some of the prices he saw on the Indiana plans available for review Monday, just before the exchange opened.
Rates released by HHS last week showed Indiana residents will likely pay between $100 and $1,000 depending on the size of their family, how much they earn and how much they qualify for in federal tax credits. Indiana officials estimate more than 500,000 residents are eligible for subsidized insurance through the federal exchange.
Residents will buy plans from private insurers, but will have to go through the federal exchange in order to receive the tax subsidies.
Marilyn Tavenner, administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, told reporters Tuesday that the federal insurance website had seen 2.8 million hits, but would not say how many of those visitors had actually enrolled in a new plan through the site.
A spokesman for Indiana's Family and Social Services, which is expecting a jump in Medicaid applications with the start of insurance mandate, said the state saw "very little or no increase at all" in the number of calls it received Tuesday.
Republican Gov. Mike Pence elected to let the federal government run the exchange in Indiana, but the state has added temporary staff to deal with the expected increase in insurance questions and applications.
Heather McCabe, a professor of social work at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis and expert on the health care law, also said a lot of residents are still figuring out exactly what the insurance exchange is and examining their options.
"I think that it is good we are seeing so much interest, even if the interest is to see what is going on with it," she said Tuesday.
The opening of the exchange came the same day as a shutdown of the federal government for the first time in 17 years. While the core of the federal staff continued working on the exchange, regional aides like the specialist overseeing Indiana were furloughed for the day.

Remember People's Names with a Digestible Daily EmailScott Motte
When you remember a person's name you pay them a subtle compliment. You add to their feeling of importance. Additionally, it benefits yourself to remember someone's name. They will more likely like you. But many of us are bad at remembering people's names. I'm guilty of this. So let's change that to great effect. Let's build an app to improve our recollection of people's names.
I'm calling it visage-grid. It will send me an email each morning. In that email will be the visage of a person I've met. At the bottom of the email will be her name.
That's it. Simple can be powerful. The small size of the email makes it easily digestible. The morning delivery makes it ritual. And the photo and name make it useful.
Alright, so let's set it up and use it. For the sake of this demo we are going to deploy onto Heroku, but this app is deployable to any server or server platform with node.js support.
The app uses Redis for the database, SendGrid for sending the emails, Heroku's scheduler for the daily recurring task to send the email, and FullContact.com for identifying a photo associated with an email address.
We will be able to use Heroku's add-ons for everything excepting FullContact. Go now and signup for a free FullContact Developer account and grab your API Key.
Once you've done that, you can run the following commands from your terminal.
git clone email@example.com:scottmotte/visage-grid.git
cd visage-grid
heroku create
heroku addons:add redistogo
heroku addons:add scheduler:standard
heroku addons:add sendgrid:starter
heroku config:set FULLCONTACT_KEY=yourfullcontactapikey
heroku config:set firstname.lastname@example.com
git push heroku master
Congrats the app is ready to go. Add a friend's email to the database. Pick a friend who has a strong online presence to increase the chances of the app returning a photo of her.
curl -X POST http://yourherokusubdomain.herokuapp.com/emails -d "firstname.lastname@example.com"
Visit http://yourherokusubdomain.herokuapp.com/emails to confirm that the email was added. It should return a response like the following.
success: true,
emails: [
Now let's send ourselves the visage-grid reminder email.
heroku run node ./task.js
As long as the person's email you added was found by FullContact then you will receive the email. Here's an example.
Setup Recurring Task
The final step is to add this as a recurring task using Heroku's scheduler. Set the task to run once a day each morning. The entry for the task should read:
node ./task.js
We're done. In about 10 minutes we've setup and deployed an app to improve our recollection of people's names. That's developers at their best!
Further Reading
For further reading, there is a detailed tutorial on how to build it from scratch here. It's ~100 lines of code. Additionally, the entire application is open sourced here. Fork it, borrow from it, or improve it to build a better app. Enjoy!

Male pot smokers beware: Your seemingly harmless habit may be increasing your risk of developing the most dangerous forms of testicular cancer.
A new study, published Monday on the website of the medical journal Cancer, reports that men who have testicular cancer are twice as likely to have smoked marijuana before they were diagnosed than control subjects. The association existed only for non-seminomas, the more dangerous form of testicular cancer that is harder to treat.
In the study, carried out in Los Angeles, a team of researchers enrolled 163 men who had been diagnosed with testicular cancer between 1986 and 1991. They also recruited a larger group of control subjects who were matched to the patients on such characteristics as age, ethnicity, and what L.A. neighborhood the subjects lived in at the time they were diagnosed — a localized approach to controlling for socioeconomic status.
The researchers, led by Victoria Cortessis of the University of Southern California, quizzed the participants on a range of medical and lifestyle factors, including drug use. They found that marijuana use before they were diagnosed was linked to a two-fold increase in testicular cancer risk.
Even with this increased risk, the likelihood of developing testicular cancer remains relatively low: According to the American Cancer Society, a normal man's likelihood of developing the disease is about one in 270. The risk of dying from the disease is even lower, at one in 5,000

This cluster distribution still has the problem common to many other old-style cluster systems: by cloning full installations it has significant long-term maintainence and consistency problems.

Justin Bieber + Selena Gomez Wedding Rumors Surface
Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez found themselves in the midst of wedding rumors this week when the young star was photographed wearing a diamond ring on her engagement finger Wednesday afternoon.
The web began buzzing in wonder if the 17-year-old Bieber popped the question to his beautiful girlfriend. "She is not engaged," a rep for Gomez tells Us Weekly.
While Bieber plans on walking down the aisle some day, he recently told Women's Wear Daily that he is still a little ways from taking that plunge. "If the time is right, I definitely want to be married by 25," he told them in September. "[But] I'm not looking to get married now."
Besides, planning a wedding is the last thing on Bieber's mind after dealing an on-going battle with fan, Mariah Yeater, who claims the singer is the father of her 4-month-old baby. After Bieber complied by taking a paternity test that showed he was not the father, Yeater asked for a second test to be done.
This week, Bieber and Gomez, coincidentally, are attending a wedding in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico where Gomez is a bridesmade. According to TMZ, Gomez is also planning on singing during the wedding.

Mall Walk: Walk N Roll for Kids To Take Place This Saturday at Empire Mall
For the 19th year, the Children's Care Auxiliary will hold its Walk and Roll for Kids at the Empire Mall, raising money for therapies, education, medical care and other needs of youngsters from birth to age 21. They have stretched their goal each year, and each year the total has increased, setting a new record. Last year, the event raised $97,600 - the goal this year is to raise $100,000!
Before the event, individuals and teams register to walk and then collect donations from their friends and family either in person, on the phone, through the mail, and now, online! Walkers and teams can earn prizes based on the amount they raise. All prizes are donated by our generous sponsors, so all dollars raised by walkers can go directly to our kids!
The walk is held in the comfort of the Empire Mall. Each lap equals 1.2 miles; 3 laps equal 3.6 miles; and 5 laps equal 6 miles. So come out for a casual walk or make it a challenging workout. The day itself is a blast, with appearances by children's performer Phil Baker, clowns, cheerleaders, and mascots.
Pre-registration is Thursday, January 31st from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Friday, February 1st from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Children's Care Hospital & School, 2501 W. 26th Street, Sioux Falls. Turn in all your money and receive your t-shirts early to avoid the rush Saturday morning. If you prefer to turn in your money Saturday morning, enter at the food court entrance for registration, which opens at 8 a.m. The walk gets started at 9:30 with prizes awarded at 11:00. Click here to get your fundraising started!

Long-time China watchers probably felt a sense of deja vu when HSBC's chief China economist, Qu Hongbin, predicted last month that the yuan would be convertible within five years.
China has been thwarting such predictions since 1993, when it first formally adopted capital account convertibility as a long-term goal.
Continue Reading Below
Consummate China insider Fred Hu, who stepped down as Goldman Sachs' Greater China chairman in 2010 to launch a private equity fund, made a similar prediction in 2002, just before China's last political leadership transition.
Market watchers remain bullish on capital account loosening - pointing to positive signals from the central bank - but the importance the political leadership places on the country's foreign exchange reserves as a guarantor of economic stability remains a major obstacle.
Indeed, signs that outflows are accelerating have already provoked concern from policymakers.
"We shouldn't interpret capital account convertibility as a free currency, with cross-border asset transfers without control," People's Bank of China's (PBOC) Governor Zhou Xiaochuan told a forum in Hainan province on Monday.
"We will reserve the right to monitor and restrict capital flows in some sensitive areas," Zhou said.
Analysts say the central bank is the center of pro-reform sentiment in the government. But other policymakers still equate foreign reserves with national strength and may oppose any reform that would put the $3.3 trillion stockpile at risk.
To them, the FX reserves underpin confidence in the financial system, serving as a security blanket for both the government and financial markets.
Few believe China's banks are as healthy as they claim, while many local governments and state-owned enterprises are awash in debt.
But as long as investors and depositors believe Beijing could tap its foreign exchange reserves to fund a bailout, a run on banks or a credit crunch for local governments and state-owned enterprises is unlikely.
"Chinese households hold a huge amount of deposits," said Yu Yongding, a former member of the central bank's monetary policy committee. China has 84 trillion yuan ($13.45 trillion) in corporate and household bank deposits.
"If households want to diversify their holdings into foreign assets, say just 10 percent of their assets, capital outflow will become huge, which will lead to a fall of the (yuan) and then there will be panic and more outflows -- a herd effect," said Yu, who is now director of the Institute of World Economics and Politics at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS).
There are signs that some money is already leaving China.
China's trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) surpluses totaled $181 billion in the six months ending October, official data shows.
But Chinese banks, including the central banks, purchased only about $32 billion in this period, while firms kept another $53 billion onshore without converting it to local currency.
With capital controls in place, the surpluses should have been roughly equal to the FX purchases and unconverted FX receipts.
Instead, this analysis, commonly used by analysts as a rough estimate of hot money flows, indicates approximately $95 billion that was meant to be in China moved overseas in the six-month period.
The outflows are striking given the yuan appreciated sharply from late July and the U.S. Federal Reserve launched a new round of quantitative easing in September. Both factors would normally draw hot money into China.
"Middle-income Chinese individuals are opening offshore bank accounts -- among 40 to 50 year olds there is a real undercurrent of fear," Jonathan Clifton, managing director of Offshore Incorporations Group, a consultancy that helps clients facilitate offshore investment, told a conference in London last month organized by the newsletter OffshoreAlert.
Even as China's economy boomed last decade, there were a gross $3.8 trillion of illicit outflows from 2000 to 2011, according to a study released in October by Global Financial Integrity, a Washington, D.C.-based research and advocacy group.
Yet such outflows went largely unnoticed because they were overwhelmed by the massive trade and foreign direct investment surpluses.
Those "twin surpluses" were the main factors that swelled China's FX reserves by an average $25 billion per month in the decade from 2002 to 2011.
But now those surpluses are shrinking, in what some analysts expect to be a long-term trend.
"In the context of narrowing surpluses on the current account and capital and financial accounts, we must shift from guarding against the risk of capital inflow to guarding against capital outflow," two officials from the PBOC wrote this week in China Finance, a magazine backed by the central bank.
Over the first nine months of 2012, reserves rose an average of $11.5 billion -- much of which would due to be interest on reserves already held rather than new inflows.
"By the middle of next year, China will tighten the capital account considerably," said Andy Xie, the former Morgan Stanley chief Asia-Pacific economist and well-known China analyst.
He added that lower trade surpluses in 2013 would spark concern among political leaders about capital outflows.
Still, optimism of an opening up persists.
"There are clear signs that China's new leaders, who will take power in early 2013, will make speeding up reform top of their policy agenda in the coming years," HSBC's Qu wrote.
There have been a steady drumbeat of statements this year from the central bank, including a widely noted report in February titled "Conditions are basically mature for China to speed up capital account opening".
Even former central bank governor Dai Xianglong, who spent much of the 1990s refusing to offer a timeline for capital account convertibility, said this year that significant progress could now be made within five years.
In March regulators increased the foreign debt quota for foreign banks, allowing them to bring in more capital. In April, authorities expanded the Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (QFII), granting foreigners greater access to China's capital markets.
But far from a shift towards allowing households more freedom to invest overseas, these policies appear to be a continuation of China's long-standing approach to foreign capital flows, which some compare to the popular "roach motel" insect traps: money can check in, but it can't check out.

York Police: Reward to be offered in Melvin Roberts 2010 murder case
A reward will be offered in the partially unsolved murder of former York Mayor Melvin Roberts, police officials said.
Roberts, 79, a lawyer in York for 55 years, was strangled outside his home in February 2010.
His longtime girlfriend, Julia Phillips, was arrested three months later after claiming she had been a victim in the attack. Despite her denials of involvement, police dismissed her story and Phillips was convicted of murder in September 2013. She is serving life in prison.
Prosecutors convinced a jury that Phillips killed Roberts over money. At the time of the crime, Roberts had cut off all money to Phillips and was going to cut her out of his will after severing the relationship. Before he was able to cut ties with Phillips, he was strangled.
Prosecutors said Phillips had a prescription narcotics problem and tried to get a hit man to kill Roberts in a murder-for-hire plot. Phillips was also convicted of stealing $2,000 in rent money from Roberts' business around the same time Roberts was killed.
Details about the reward and the status of the investigation that never closed despite Phillips' conviction will be released Friday at a 10 a.m. news conference, York Police Chief Andy Robinson said Monday.
Police and prosecutors have argued that Phillips, 69 at the time, did not act alone in the crime where Roberts was shot at, hit over the head, and eventually strangled with a zip tie. No other assailants have ever been identified by York Police detectives and state investigators.
Phillips' son, William Hunter Stephens, an ex-con currently serving prison time from drug and other crimes, admitted in court documents that he was a suspect but was never charged in the case, which gained regional and even national coverage.
On June 26 at 10 p.m., the television network Investigation Discovery will air a special on the case from its Southern Fried Homicide show called "Romance is Dead."

"It's an uncomfortable fact that sending a message of solidarity with our NATO allies is more important than sending a message to President Obama."
It's tempting to cut off funds immediately for President Obama's ill-conceived Libya offensive. But it's not the right course. For the sake of our allies, Congress needs to be patient in using the power of the purse to correct Obama's misadventure.
The policy is indeed a mess. Even if the ongoing air attacks chased Muammar Qadhafi from power, he might be replaced by a radical Islamist regime. We have no good intelligence on what the rebels would establish if they took over.
Obama's ham-handed approach has been an insult to Congress' constitutional role "to define and punish . . . Offences against the Law of Nations," as specified in Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution. Obama failed to make any meaningful consultation with Congress before he committed American forces, much less obtain any type of actual approval.
Yes, it's tempting for Congress to "teach him a lesson" by voting to cut off U.S. funding immediately for Libyan operations. The power of the purse is their strongest counter-balance to the President's role as commander-in-chief.
But the countervailing argument is that our NATO allies–a key component of America's national security–have been pulled into the Libya fray based on assurances and urgings from the Obama Administration. Those may have been improvident, but they are real.
A precipitous exit from America's role in Operation Unified Protector would pull the rug out from under our allies, making it less likely they would ever be willing to stand with America in the future when we have real need for their help.
Nations conducting the air strikes have included Great Britain, France, Canada, Norway, Denmark and Belgium while other military support has come from Italy, Spain, The Netherlands, Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Romania and Turkey, according to the BBC's tallies. Others, like Germany, have refused to participate in an unclear mission.
The current NATO operation expires in September; Congress should stick with our allies until then, even as it asserts itself to make sure there is no further extension or expansion of the mission.
Meantime, other efforts such as arms and financial embargoes could be pursued.
It's an uncomfortable fact that sending a message of solidarity with our NATO allies is more important than sending a message to President Obama.
Already, the House formally rebuked President Obama on June 3rd with a 268-145 bipartisan vote on a resolution that included a declaration that, "The President has failed to provide Congress with a compelling rationale based upon United States national security interests for current United States military activities regarding Libya."
The bipartisan war of words against Obama's mistaken course will take a toll on him. The lawsuit by some in Congress will be just a sideshow; the courts cannot be expected to be involved in this dispute over the President's war powers, nor should they be.
It's sad but true that the President has committed our forces and our funds unwisely. But Congress should resist the temptation to make it worse by abandoning our allies who followed us into the skies over Libya.

Q. I was shocked to note that vaccination in the children could cause autism too. Is that true? Very recently I have delivered a cute male baby and I could see a change in me after my delivery in the sense that I always think about him. My sister's son who is 5 years old is diagnosed with Autism and I just can't see the sufferings of my sister with him. She experiences difficulty in almost all dealings with him right from brushing, giving bah and making him to study….etc. Now I fear that my son should not get in to autism although I know that this is too early to think about disorder in my son. But as my sister's son got in to this disorder, this has affected me a lot. Hope you can understand my feelings towards my baby. When I browsed through the net, I was shocked to note that vaccination in the children could cause autism too. Is that true? Can I get some idea…..
Q. Is electric shock efficient for ocd? Is it dangerous? My husband has OCD for 15 years now. He was also diagnosed with mania-depressia. He takes so many medications and nothing really helps. We were offered to try electric shock and I'm scared. Is it dangerous? What are the chances of this method to work for him?
Generally it can be said that it's not an absolutely safe treatment, but it may help, especially if other drugs don't help.

SO, things you need to know. rather ... I needed to know.... There is a preferred species of tree that many people have when planning to burn inside a wood burning stove. (that's how we heat the place up at the lake). Fact: Many people don't SPELL this species of tree correct. Fact: it's not even a true FIR tree.... YUP.... I'm talking about Douglas fir also known as Pseudotsuga menziesii as (and yes... I did just spell that correctly.. google it if you must!) :) Chainsaws, beer, and heading out on some good old fun forestry roads. My kind of a spring day!
Usually, we look for the ones that already are on the ground... not green.. and just begging to be chopped up. (ie.. not too far from the road, not too wet, but still fun to get)... It's "easy" then... trim it to a size you can drag closer to the road, drag, then cut to a predetermined size, load up truck. repeat. (maybe toss back a wobbly pop or 2 somewhere in there)
Then there's the time when I guess "boys will be boys" ... though I admit, I kinda liked it too... OR... there's just no Douglas fir laying around.... then ya get to play lumber jack... carefully might I add... please kids.. don't try this at home. lol
Of course...after a long day out in the woods... the appetite is huge.... This dish is a perfect way to satisfy, it's easy to make, and the variations are endless in what actually goes IN the baked dish. I used what I happened to have on hand... hmm... wonder what YOU can come up with?!
Saucy Baked Gnocchi
- 1 package of mini gnocchi (or make your own... you decide!)
- 1 cup diced pancetta
- 5 slices of extra lean hot capacola salami
- 1 jar of your favorite pasta sauce
- 1 cup chopped fresh spinach
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- In small sauce pan, cook pancetta until crispy, remove from heat and place in small bowl, reserving some of the drippings
- Dice up capacola slices, and place in small sauce pan with reserved drippings. Fry until a little crispy.
- Drain water from gnocchi and toss in the spinach, pancetta, and salami
- Pour in half of the jar of pasta sauce, and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Toss well.
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Divide gnocchi mixture into 4 oven safe serving bowls
- Pour remaining sauce over top of each bowl, and top with remaining shredded cheese
- Place bowls on a cookie sheet, and put in oven until sauce is bubbly and cheese is melted and golden. (about 20 - 25 mins)
- Remove from oven... and enjoy!!!
Now, if you don't have pancetta or salami... maybe toss in some cooked ground beef... or cooked diced chicken.. or even some peppers, mushrooms or really whatever you would typically toss in with a pasta... it could work.

Regional (Geo-Targeted) Search Engine Optimization Services
Our services are tailored to the audience reach of the client. For instance, it is sometimes right to offer large clients a combination of multi-national or national site Search Engine Optimization and on-site training. Likewise, many of the clients we serve are regional, with very specific geo-targeted needs where a finely focused project (also a less expensive project) is the appropriate solution. We offer something for everybody as long as the project makes sense.
How we estimate has little to do with "sites", it has more to do with "units of work". We estimate "units of work" based upon the number of pages, keywords, and competition, then estimate the hours to perform the work, then offer a fixed bid for that work. However, we can and do offer a price break for long-term projects on large sites.
We will NOT spam the search engines, and we ABSOLUTELY adhere to the guidelines specified by the major search engines concerning allowable Search Engine Optimization practices.
At a regional level we offer a reduced-fee program that covers five pages from the client site. The client will provide a geographic area (region) name [usually a city], their company name, with nine generic keywords to be used only in combination with the region and company name, their domain name, and the site owner name for a total of about twenty keywords. The generic keywords are NEVER optimized alone - they are only used in combination with region or company (i.e., "las vegas" and "hotels" will ONLY result in "las vegas hotels" as a keyword, never "hotels" by itself). We will optimize the client site with these keywords in a manner that allows combinations of these words to be located in the search engines. We will also submit the site to regional directories (some may involve additional fees such as Yahoo!) and seek free links from other sites within the region. Note that if you want generic keyword Search Engine Optimization then your project is not regional and you should review "National" pricing and services.
Pricing is fixed at $795 per month for a minimum term of 12 months, with a one-time setup fee of $200 plus first and last month payment due at time of signing.
