Most Earthlike Planets Found Yet: A "Breakthrough"
New exoplanets are at right distance from sun to support life, scientists say.
Newfound exoplanet Kepler-62f is imagined in an illustration. The shining star to the right is Kepler-62e.

for National Geographic News
Published April 18, 2013
Planet hunters are significantly closer to their goal of finding an "Earth twin" with the discovery of two planets similar in size to our own, astronomers with NASA's Kepler mission announced today.
The planets, described at a NASA press conference, orbit a sun that's cooler than ours but is at the right distance to allow water to remain liquid, which is considered essential for a planet to support life. (Read about a related discovery in 2011: "NASA's Kepler Finds Two Earth-Size Planets Around Sunlike Star.")
And because of their sizes and orbits, the newfound planets are likely either rocky—like Earth—or watery, NASA scientists said. The two planets are located 1,200 light-years away in a five-planet system orbiting a star dubbed Kepler-62.
Called Kepler-62e and -62f, the planets "are by far the best candidates for habitability of any found so far," said William Borucki of NASA's Ames Research Center, the science principal investigator for the agency's Kepler Space Telescope.

While being able to play as Kevin and Gwen is great on a lot of levels, it actually brings me to one of my major complaints. When playing with a friend, wouldnt it be great to play as Ben and then either Kevin or Gwen? Well, I thought it would too, but you cant. You have to be a copy of the character in that level. The only time you can be an additional character is when each of you takes on a different alien form. This was such a bad move in the development of the game. Hopefully, before the next one is made, this will be taken into consideration along with the inclusion of all ten alien forms.
Graphically speaking, Ben 10: Alien Force is both a step up and a step back from Ben 10: Protector of Earth. The modeling for the characters brings a sense of CGI to the cartoon characters. While they look smooth and consistent, only Ben looks great and Kevin looks fair in this translation. Gwen, on the other hand, looks like they took no time to consider the way she looked on the show. She looks more like an evil pixie than the innocent girl next door. The environments also look more flat than they should. More often than not, you are in dullsville. At least with last years, there was a reason for the dullness, you were in the Grand Canyon area for most of the game. There is another problem that will annoy you frequently. When new enemies pop onto screen, most of the time, you will glitch from your location to a completely different one; it is very disorienting.
The music from the game is solid enough and comes right from the show, so as long as you are a fan of that soundtrack, you will be just fine there. Also coming from the show are the voice actors and actresses reprising their respective roles. While some characters have a nice array of catchphrases and different vocabulary, some become extremely repetitive, most notably for me was Kevin. In the first level, you are allowed to play as him. If you do, you will quickly try and find the remote so you can mute him.
When all is said and done, you have to look at Ben 10: Alien Force for what it is an experience outside of the show. In that area it excels in so many ways. However, there are too many complaints to say that you will have the same awesome experience that Ben and company have when fighting aliens. You will be plagued with glitches when enemies load onto screen, repetitive voice clips, and respawning enemies that reach a whole new level of insanity. The areas of improvement are few, but they do add to the franchise and make room for future improved installments.

Yup. I also follow this Light Novel as well. Actually you can probably tell if you just look at my signature.
There are currently 2 Volumes, and the 3rd volume is coming out this month(Which I have already preordered).
The MC is cool since he is Oda Nobunaga who lost his memory and came to a different world where human fights witches.
I would put this in the same genre as Madan no Ou, so its not just an ordinary harem series you would expect from MF Bunko.
This series is one of the recommended LN from MF Bunko which started last year along with Absolute Duo and Koakuma.

I'm honestly quite surprised that MF Bunko is able to put out titles like Vanadis and Naga, as the general consensus seems to be that MF Bunko's usual stuff consist mostly of cliched harem titles.
EDIT: No wonder! The author is the same one behind Gabriela Senki. Go figure! Definitely on my must-read list now.

So the third volume is already available for purchase (I'm genuinely surprised that MF Bunko J's 3/25 titles are released early, like 2 days ago or so). Out of curiosity, once people have finished reading it: given that there are three volumes already out, any thoughts on this series as a whole? Like, how promising it is, and where it might go from here?

The war in this volume wasn't big as the previous 2 volumes, but this time, instead of protecting themselves from the army of humans, the witches strikes instead. They took one of the fortress where there was 300 people without killing a single of them.
Naga and the Witch tribes he fought alongside in the previous 2 volumes made an alliance with another witch tribe in order to do this. Anyway, Naga wants to make the world where human and witches can coexists. And one of the humans actually joined Naga and became his subordinates. This guy has been appearing since volume 1, and he survived all the battles. In other words a veteran.
Volume 4 will be appearing in August at earliest.

Fortress battles? No fatalities, even? Consider me reeled in hook, line and sinker. Sounds like it is just as tactics and strategy-intensive as Gabriela Senki, and that's a very good thing. Another great title to add to my list to read!
Out of curiosity, how are the military strategies and conflicts portrayed in this series as compared to, say, Vanadis? How do they compare in scope and depth? Given that you've read both, I'm kind of curious as to what you think as to how these two series compare in that regard. And how are the characters in this one?
Also, much thanks for having answered my previous inquiry! Seems that this series is turning out awesome, even blog reviews are pretty thrilled about this.

I would say Vanadis is better.
In terms of battle strategy, this series seems to focus it to every details. But that actually takes a lot of pages so the the progress of the story is quite slow. So people who hates slow pace story would hate it. Personally Im fine with it.
The cool thing is that in Volume 2, they actually use illustration to show the formation of the army many times. Volume 1 basically couldn't finish the whole battle, so it continued to Volume 2 after all.
Though comparing it with other light novels, its much decent.
Lately I'm into these War type LN. Im also into a fantasy LN, but most Japanese writers tend to follow other peoples genre and it become repetitive.

Fascinating! In Gabriela Senki, it often had illustrations of the siege machines, formations, and such that were used in the volume near the end of the book; I'm surprised and genuinely, honestly pleased that the author's carrying over that quirk into this new series of his. I also love it when the author sticks to details; I don't find myself bothered with it as long as it adds to the immersion, with regards to both tension and mood. I love it when a story builds itself up with focus on details, it makes the story more engaging to read and easier to imagine.
Knowing MF Bunko J though, this is bound to have some harem antics as comic relief...does it detract from the main story (like it does with Vanadis)? Are those comic harem moments abundant or few?
My apologies for my slew of questions, especially if they're getting bothersome, but I am rather intrigued by this series.

Its still hard to say about the romance. There is ecchi scenes and ecchi illustrations. But it hasnt developed to the point where the female cast has romantic feeling towards Naga.
Though, lots of the names appears and it gets annoying to remember all of them. More than dozen of the witches had their name revealed, and sometimes you would go "which one was that again?". Btw, the illustration of volume 3 is really naughty. Dont read it where people can see it.... I embarrassed myself while reading it inside the train.

I see. Thanks for answering again, I really appreciate these valuable inputs! Seems like the cast is just as big as Gabriela Senki's female roster. Or it might even be bigger, seeing as this is just 3 volumes in.
Good old MF Bunko J is at it again, I see. Yeah, I saw one of the colored illustrations for vol. 3 (the big one). I see what you mean. That's definitely something not to be seen in public...silly MF Bunko J, making 戦記 light novels so hard to read with illustrations like that. First Vanadis, now this...

Our strata went up by a fair bit. As always, it depends on location and the local market.
John - where have condos, or any real estate in the Lower Mainland, "dropped dramatically?"

Not scary at all. The trend for land in metro Vancouver is it remains relatively stable or increases in value. However, the improvements on that land depreciate in value, just like any other manufactured item. A new house or condo will be worth more once construction is complete than the same building(s) 15 years down the road. Especially if the improvement isn't well maintained. What you're seeing is the depreciation of the building in which you live. You might see in increase in that value if you were to make improvements to it, such as update the bathroom and kitchen. But to see that assessment increase, you'd need to report it and subsequently see your property taxes increase. Ultimately, assessed value and the price you'd realize if you sold aren't likely to be the same.

There is a lovely balance on this blog. Those that don't seem to really understand what is going on around them and those that do.
A comprehensive graph of the assessed values of all regions of BC was published last week in the Province. The average assessed value of all properties (including detached, attached and multifamily reeidences) in both North and West Vancouver decreased this year. Simple as that.
North Shore residences tend to command a higher price than comparable residences in other areas of the Lower Mainland as the Shore is viewed as a desirable premium area in which to live. Simple as that.
Real estate prices are self-regulating. The more desirable the area and the fewer homes available on the market the highter the price and variables to the contrary the lower the price. Simple as that.
A cautionary comment. Your taxes can still increase even if your assessment decreased. Your council will soon decide this year's "mill rate". That is the number by which your assessed value will be multiplied resulting in your property taxes owing. So if council increases the mill rate sufficiently your lower assessment will not prevent a tax increase.
Finally, there are numerous other charges all rolled in with your property tax invoice - examples: school and transit taxes. Last year these increased hugely. So even if you had no property tax increase at all the overall invoice may have increased considerably compared to the prior year due to regional and provincial charges.

I hope nobody is getting the ideathat an assessor actually observed the state of maintenance of your buildings.
It's just a piece of software grinding out how your properties characteristics fit the parameters used by the assessment software, such as building age, square footage, sales around your area as of July last year and god knows what else.
Last year my Lynn Valley Single Family dropped in assessed value ( both the building and the land ) and this year it has rebounded $40,000 again (around 5%) although I made NO changes in the property or buildings.
- Thursday, January 09, 2014 12:45:00 am
Well, last year my 2 bed in Lower Lonsdale dropped 10% this year it's rebounded 10% with a remark on the assessment notice : due to development...
very strange and if I was a suspicious person I would accuse the City of using this to counteract all the unhappy taxpayers in the City.

I'd appreciate it if someone could point us to a primer on how these assessments are calculated.
From what I recall of the monthly Lynn Valley Life summaries prices around here have be fairly flat, but our assessment jumped.
- Thursday, January 09, 2014 5:05:00 pm
Following is pasted from LynnValleyLife re: last Dec.
"Single Family Homes:
There were 4 detached homes sold in December with an average sale price of $961,683 (median = $842,250).
The average sale price achieved was less than list price by 5.49%.
Detached homes that sold in December took an average of 123 days to sell (median = 96.5 days).
There were no attached sales in December."
- Thursday, January 09, 2014 11:46:00 pm
1. A municipality has no authority over the assessed value of a property. This value is determined by BC Assessment. The City cannot conspire to inflate or deflate assessed values.
2. From the BC Assessment website:
Assessments are the estimate of a property's market value as of July 1, 2013 and physical condition as of October 31, 2013. This common valuation date ensures there is an equitable property assessment base for property taxation.
3. If one wants additional information on the details of assessment surely it is self-evident that one would view BC Assessment's website and/or contact them directly.
- Friday, January 10, 2014 8:44:00 am
- Barry Rueger said...
Well Anon - I challenge you to find anything substantial on the BC Assessment website. All that I could track down was:
What is market value?
Market value for assessment purposes in British Columbia is the most probable price of a property in an open market between a willing purchaser and seller.
How is an assessment of property made?
BC Assessment has a professional appraisal staff and an extensive database that is periodically updated with information gathered through appraisal inspections. Municipal and provincial agencies inform BC Assessment of land title changes, building permit approvals and zoning adjustments. BC Assessment also considers a property's unique characteristics, including location, size, layout, shape, age, finish, quality, carports, garages, sundecks and condition of buildings. All these variables are considered when valuing each property.
Why did the value of my property change?
Property values usually change as a result of real estate market forces and these forces vary by property type and location. If a property was upgraded, the value will likely increase.
All quite vague in terms of how they actually calculate these numbers.
- Friday, January 10, 2014 3:18:00 pm
Why not contact them and ask them for their process?
- Friday, January 10, 2014 3:42:00 pm
- Friday, January 10, 2014 9:26:00 pm
Based on my limited access to this issue I say you must hire a lawyer to look after your question to the B.C. Assessment Authority.
I recall when Nancy Van Insburghe, the woman who lost access to her house in the 2005 Blueridge mudslide due to safety issues, tried to contest her property assessment on her own and then she hired lawyer Jay Straith and won!
- Saturday, January 11, 2014 10:10:00 am
I believe Nancy was trying to obtain a higher price than assessed value.
That is different than trying to figure out how BC Assessment arrives at their evaluation which they will describe if you contact them.
If you want to contest the evaluation there is a process in place for that as well.
Doesn't seem very daunting.

Back on topic.....
Would anyone care to explain just how the Mill Rate is determined exactly?
- Wednesday, January 15, 2014 9:02:00 pm
Technically there are several 'mill rates'. Each property class (industrical, commercial etc) has their own mill rate. You are probably interested in the Residential Mill Rate.
The District sets their entire budget.
The Revenue side of that budget is split into all of the different sources of revenue including fees, charges, interest from invesments etc. Whatever remains has to be collected from taxes.
The portion to be collected from taxes is then split into the various property tax classes (again industrial commercial etc)
The Residential portion is then divided by the net assessable value of that property class, (ie the total assessed value of all of our houses combined).
That number becomes the residential mill rate.
Multiply your house's assessed value by the rate and you get the amount you owe.

Residential taxes have always been a wealth tax where it's assumed if your house is worth twice the neighbor's you have twice the ability to pay.
I have never felt that was a just method for businesses since if I invest in new equipment and double my sales I am clearly able to pay more while if my next door neighbor sells his property for twice what it's assessed (for instance to an "investor immigrant") that will drive all the neighbors' assessments sky high since BC Assessment will say "oh we obviously underestimated this neighborhood".
In the second scenario the merchant's ability to pay has not increased but his assessment dramatically increases for reasons he doesn't control.
Throw in the fact that BC Assessment is now introducing assessments based on a capitalized lease value (i.e. if you're a lessee and your landlord raises your rents, the assessment goes up) and you can get some whopping tax increases - we got a 21% tax increase in 2013 for exactly that reason.
That's why I say I don't think property value is a fair or reasonable method of assessing municipal taxes for commercial and industrial properties.

But the epitaph was not there when Battler was around, nor the picture. They only showed up AFTER he left, perhaps even the following year, at least long enough for everyone to find it common knowledge and think nothing of it.

Battler wasn't actually trying to "get the right answer" so much as "get any answer that doesn't require magic", so the kind of thinking we do in this thread isn't actually required of him. I wouldn't blame the guy.
Anyway, as far as Natsuhi in EP1 goes, I'm convinced she has split personalities (the other being convinced she's Beatrice).
Maybe it's a matter of the symptoms just conveniently fitting the situation, but that incurable headache and that weird feeling she gets when she wakes up? It'd also explain why there's blood on her door. She may have then washed her hands when she got inside.
Anyway, as far as 4's Kinzo sighting...

The easiest way to figure out Battler's "sin" - although I doubt we'll see anything definite for a while - is to look at when it happened. Six years ago, right?
Well, what happened six years ago? Asumu died. Ange was born. Rudolf married Kyrie. Kyrie ran away from her family, pushing Kasumi into her position. Battler renounced the Ushiromiya family and went to live with Asumu's parents.
Lots of things happened back then. I'm not sure if anything else was mentioned as happening then, but basically if it happened six years ago, it's potentially relevant. But it doesn't seem to be any of these things directly, as Beatrice didn't seem satisfied with Battler's analysis of his family situation, and none of these things directly ought to lead to 18 people dying under mysterious circumstances in and of themselves.
It's probably something indirect. And whatever it is, it upsets Beatrice, even though she claims it isn't between the two of them. Other than Maria, I'm not sure who else Battler's sin could indirectly hurt that would upset her. However, because of the lack of information, we don't even know if it was a sin of action or of omission; that is, was it something Battler did, or was it something that happened because he wasn't there? I don't think that's worth pursuing right now. There really isn't enough evidence.

Just finished episode 4, so I'd like to offer a speculation on Battler's death at the end of the episode. Recall that in red, Beato said; "Ushiromiya Battler, at this time, I will kill you. And right now, there is no one on the island other than you. The only one alive on this island is you. Nothing outside the island can interfere in any way. And of course, I am not you. However, I am here now and will kill you." This statement presents an interesting problem with regards to how he died, as it rules out suicide or accidental death. I'm not sure if anyone's tried tackling it in this thread yet (haven't read 54 pages of replies), but I'll take a guess at it.
Spoiler for A guess:
Spoiler for Furthermore:
I have some ideas how these might factor into earlier episodes, but I'll explain them a bit later.

Actually that's a sound idea. That would explain why Kanon-Battler is so reluctant about returning Jessy's feeling (I mean they are blood related after all), why we've never heard his real name. And for some strange reason we've never seen him interacting with Rudolf neither (truthfully he actually kinda reminds me of Rudolf. Even Kyrie thinks so when she said "you surpasses my husband in smooth talk").
I reckon it's not completely impossible.
As for his age, unless it's stated in red he's 16, I won't accept it .

Shipped off at 2, eh? I could buy that. I doubt he'd know his true identity as Battler, though.
I'd been thinking about Asumu-Battler being shipped off to the Fukuin House, but it requires a slightly contrived argument to make him be Kanon. It beats the "Shannon = Kanon" theories, though, in that it doesn't necessarily have massively weird implications.

Months of Absence
First Nudge: I was contacted by a second cousin in Australia who is related to me via Ruby Thredgold (wife of Henry Lee-Thomas) and Ruby's mother, Ellen Prewett Thredgold. This is a cousin on the Prewett line. I am very excited about this contact because this is a line in which I've previously not had any contact. This lady has visited by blog and left many comments, but I did not know her email and how she was related until few days ago. I so much appreciate hearing from her.
Second Nudge: In the new area where I live, there is a very active group of the "Daughters of Utah Pioneers." They have urged me to join with them and I plan to do that this Fall. My mother (Florence Christensen) comes from Utah Pioneers and she was once a member of this group. Perhaps I will learn some much needed things on this family from Denmark.
All I need to do now is help get our garage organized, hang a few pictures on the walls, and I should be good to settle in for the winter and get busy again.

Review: Griffin SportCuff for iPod nano 7G
Company: Griffin Technology
Website: www.GriffinTechnology.com
Model: SportCuff
Price: $20
Compatible: iPod nano 7G
Taking advantage of the seventh-generation iPod nano's small size and light weight, Griffin's SportCuff ($20) is the first of its kind for this model: a sweatband that attaches the nano to your wrist. The concept is actually quite simple, especially compared to options such as Griffin's own Trainer, which goes for the same price, although it has its own issues. It's a terrycloth wristband, with a plastic shell permanently fused to it. Nine colors and patterns are available.
The iPod easily snaps into the holder, although getting it out is more of a challenge. Only the left and right edges are covered—there's a break for the volume controls—while the top and bottom are left exposed. What's most obviously missing is any sort of liquid protection, to keep sweat from affecting the nano. The other big issue is the fit. We found it to be tight, somewhat like a blood pressure cuff, even on the smallest part of our wrists. Those with large arms may well find SportCuff even more uncomfortable.
We can see the appeal of wearing on iPod nano on the wrist while working out—the same idea was tried years ago with earlier iPod models—but this execution isn't ideal, especially not for the price. At $10, it'd be a different story, but for the same price as a full-fledged armband with proper device protection, we can't recommend SportCuff. It earns our C+ rating; check it out only if you specifically need a wrist-mounting solution.
Editors' Note: iLounge only reviews products in "final" form, but many companies now change their offerings - sometimes several times - after our reviews have been published. This iLounge article provides more information on this practice, known as revving.

Hearables are the new Wearables. Everyone of us are used to using earphones versus wristbands.

Liron Gino designs Vibeat listening device for the hearing impaired
Published on Aug 8, 2016
"Liron Gino designs Vibeat listening devices for the hearing impaired"This movie shows a set of wearable devices that allow deaf and hearing-impaired people to experience music through vibration, designed by Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design graduate Liron Gino.
The Vibeat collection is an alternative to headphones that features a necklace, bracelet and pin with circular modules attached to them.
The "alternative sensory system" translates tracks into vibrations, with different units in the collection reacting to lower or higher ranges. This allows wearers to experience songs through touch alone.
"Music is one of the deepest and most primal forms of human communication, and its ability to convey emotion and expression make it into an invaluable tool," said Gino. "How can the deaf and hearing-impaired community experience music, without actually hearing it?"
Each wearable connects to the music source via Bluetooth. Internal motors within the wearables react to different frequencies to make the devices vibrate.
The Vibeat units can be unclipped, allowing users to decide where to place the devices on their body. It also gives them the chance to share the experience with others. Users can share their music with a hearing person by connecting a pair of headphones.

A dark, dramatic trailer or action piece. Features orchestral brass and strings, complimented by distorted synths and effects. It starts off with a percussive intro, and builds into a tense crescendo with bold, distorted brass bellowing through. At 1:46, all orchestral elements drop out, and we're left with just the distorted bass and drums, again building a huge sense of tension, as strings slide upwards from underneath. A very dark, ominous piece for a sense of epic tension with electronic or sic-fi vibes throughout.
Includes MP3 and WAV versions of:
The main track
Looped intro – just percussion and bass (from 0:05 to 0:19): 16 bars, 0:27 long
Looped intro with strings (from 0:19 to 0:33): 16 bars, 0:27 long
Looped intro with strings and brass (from 0:33 to 0:39): 16 bars, 0:27 long

And far from being a regulator of campaign finances, our political funding laws -- aided by a corporate-friendly Supreme Court and self-interested politicians -- only facilitate the process of empowering the few while subjugating the many.

After years of consumers paying steep fees for overdraft protection that, in some cases, they didn't even ask for, the government stepped in three years ago. Now, banks must get consumers OK — or opt-in — before covering ATM and debit card transactions when the customer's balance is too low.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued a report today on how things are working out.
The agency found that the percentage of new customers opting in for overdraft protection differed substantially among banks. At some institutions, more than 40 percent of them signed up for overdraft protection, while others saw fewer than 10 percent enrolling.
Those who opt in pay higher fees. The CFPB looked at people who frequently overdraw their accounts but who didn't opt-in overdraft protection. The agency said these consumers ended up saving on average more than $450 over a six-month period in 2010. (That's $900 a year and a sizable savings that surely would be enough to cover many transactions.)
Overall, the agency said, consumers who did overdraft their accounts in the course of a year paid an average of $225 in fees.
The agency found that fee structures varied widely among institutions and are often so complicated that it's difficult for consumers to figure out how to avoid overdraft fees. Some lenders, for instance, won't charge a fee if the amount overdrawn is under $5; others slap a fee on no matter how big the shortfall.
Also, the CFPB found, some banks will post checks or debit transactions from large to small, meaning that the account is depleted faster so more overdraft fees are triggered.
CFPB's director, Richard Cordray, said in a statement that the agency isn't saying banks or credit unions shouldn't offer this service. And he notes "progress" has been made to protect consumers.
So I'll say it. It's really hard to make a case for overdraft protection. Banks have said that it prevents customers from being embarrassed by having their transactions denied. But a savings of $900 a year if you frequently are overdrawn or $225 if you're just average is worth a few seconds of discomfort.

Canucks boss Trevor Linden mapping strategy
VANCOUVER — Trevor Linden travelled a long way this week to get a little advice from a trusted friend.
The Vancouver Canucks' new president of hockey operations returned home Thursday from Detroit, where he met for two hours with Boston Bruin president Cam Neely to discuss building a staff and hockey team.
Linden has spoken admiringly about the "Boston model" of a National Hockey League team – a deep, smart group of two-way players who possess both skill and grit and are not overly reliant on any one player for their success.
There are parallels in the career paths of Linden and Neely, former Canucks who removed themselves from the NHL after retiring as players, then years later returned to their clubs in executive positions.
After retiring in 2008, Linden, 44, was hired back by Vancouver owner Francesco Aquilini on April 9, the day after general manager Mike Gillis was fired when the Canucks were eliminated from playoff contention in the franchise's worst season since 1999.
Neely, 48, retired from the Bruins in 1996 and returned to the franchise as vice-president in 2007. He became president three years later.
Gillis was expected — and still is — to be followed out the door in Vancouver by head coach John Tortorella, but Linden feels no pressure to make a decision on his coach while still gathering as much intelligence as he can about his team and the process required to restore it to a championship contender.
The Bruins, who defeated the Canucks for the 2011 Stanley Cup and were beaten by the Chicago Blackhawks in last year's final, won the Presidents' Trophy this season and were in Detroit for playoff games this week against the Red Wings.
"Cam has been really helpful through this process," Linden said. "We kept in touch over the years. There's an understanding there."
Neely isn't the only NHL executive with whom Linden has spoken. The Canuck boss said he has talked to several general managers and been encouraged by their willingness to offer advice and grant him access to members of their staffs.
But Neely is the one whose team employs assistant general manager Jim Benning, widely believed a favourite to become Linden's first general manager. So far, however, Linden said he has not asked for permission to speak with Benning and is still building a list of GM candidates.
"I'm not trying to have favourites right now," Linden said. "I'm trying to put a list together of people I feel I need to talk to. The one thing I can't afford to do is have a list that's too long, so I'm really trying to zone in to where I feel the best candidate will come from.
"You speak to people who have gone through this process and gather information from everyone you talk to. Just talking hockey. The willingness from people to help in any way, I've been really encouraged by that. (But) I have not interviewed any candidates."
Canuck assistant GM Laurence Gilman will be on the candidate list, Linden said.
Apparently, Linden's experience leading the Players' Association into and out of the worst labour dispute in NHL history did nothing to hurt his standing among his new peers. He said some of the managers he has consulted worked alongside him on the league's competition committee after the 2004-05 lockout.
Those hockey connections are not only helping Linden now, but illustrate one of the fundamental management differences between he and Gillis. A former take-no-prisoners agent, Gillis did not disguise his abhorrence for "old-school" management thinking and was outspoken in his beliefs that there were better ways to run an NHL team.
His background and ideology, characterized by detractors as arrogance, was always believed to be hindrances when Gillis needed to deal with other GMs on issues like the failed Roberto Luongo trade mission.
Linden appears to have no such impediment. Nor is he likely to struggle with the burden of being the public face of the Canucks and a corporate manager required to energize and bring together the various departments of a complex organization.
Upon becoming GM in 2008, Gillis conceded his biggest challenge was representing the many employees of a large, public entity like the Canucks after spending his working life running, mostly quietly, his two-person agency.
It took Gillis weeks to meet all the employees of the Canucks' various departments. Linden did that his first day on the job when he called the entire staff together to introduce himself. There was an ovation for Linden in Canuck offices louder than what the team generated on home ice many nights this season.
"It was one of those situations you walk into and you're not sure what you're going to say," Linden said Thursday. "And seven minutes later I'm still talking and it just feels right. Every piece of that organization is important to success of the team on the ice. And part of the plan is to re-engage, from top to bottom, everyone who plays a part in making the Vancouver Canucks successful."
He said the transition out of civilian life has gone better than expected.
"I'm excited every day to get to the office and I have trouble leaving at night," he said. "I knew I was in the right place the first (day after the season) when I was sitting talking to players about hockey. I relate it back to when I was first returned to the Canucks (as a player) from the Washington Capitals on Nov. 11, 2001. I was very uncertain about the whole situation, but it took one period to feel: This is right, this is where I need to be. And it was much the same with this."
As for Tortorella, Linden said he spent two days last week de-briefing with his head coach, who before the meetings said emphatically and publically that the core of the Canucks needs to get younger and the organization must get past the 2011 final.
Linden concurs with that assessment and said it makes no sense to rush a decision on Tortorella's future with the team.
"This (decision) has a ripple effect through the whole organization," Linden said. "I need to be very strategic and thoughtful in any decision I make, so it's going to take some time. The decisions I make will impact this organization for years to come, so it's really important I gather as much information as I can. I came into this with a completely open mind and I'm not going to be pressured into a situation of what people think my timeline should be."

"Parade's" pedigree is impeccable: book by Alfred Uhry of "Driving Miss Daisy" and "The Last Night of Ballyhoo"; music by the brilliant young composer Jason Robert Brown; originally conceived by the inestimable Harold Prince; a true story that contains elements of bigotry, humanity and terror; a splendid cast led by Ben Dibble and Jennie Eisenhower; and an imaginative design team.
For all of that, "Parade," which is playing at the Arden Theatre through Nov. 3, is somewhat heavy-handed and predictable.
The story involves a northern Jew (Dibble) who is accused of murdering a 13-year old girl at his pencil factory in Atlanta, the city of his business and of his lovely, devoted wife (Eisenhower).
There is no real evidence that he's guilty. He's convicted only because his lawyer's incompetent, the prosecutor's corrupt, and the judge's mind borders on senility.
When his death sentence is overturned, the locals take matters into their own hands and lynch him, one of the rare times (if not the only time) when a non-black was lynched in Georgia.
It's an interesting story, but "Parade" suffers from what is a major flaw: the central character — Leo Frank, the accused and a man about whom we should feel sympathy — is never fleshed out. He and most of the other characters are all simply pawns (if well-written pawns) in a story that has the sole purpose of denouncing the injustices that spring from narrow-mindedness and political corruption. This is a play about issues — racism, anti-Semitism, the role of women — more than it is about the real-life characters on which it is based.
Arden's Terrence J. Nolen has staged the piece fluidly on Jorge Cousineau's deceptively simple set, which features Cousineau's superb video projections that help tell the story in an impressively original way. Thom Weaver has lighted the production in contrasting moments of brilliance and foreboding. Rosemarie E. McKelvey's costumes seem just right for the piece's1913-1915 period.
The large cast, starting with Dibble and Eisenhower and including particularly notable performances from Derrick Cobey, Jeffrey Coon, Scott Greer, Kenita R. Miller and Anthony Lawton, is first rate. They infuse their generally underwritten characters with surprising depth.
The star of the show, however, is Jason Robert Brown's terrific score. The music is memorable, melodic and totally appropriate for the era in which the show is set.
For tickets call 215-922-1122 or visit www.ardentheatre.org.
Ed. note: Jennie Eisenhower, 35, who grew up in nearby Valley Forge, is the granddaughter of a U.S. president (Richard Nixon) and the great-granddaughter of another U.S. president and World War II hero (Dwight D. Eisenhower).

I will be attending the High Income Countries Dialogue in Oakland, California 16-17 September 2011 to provide testimony on 'HIV criminalisation: the negative impacts of the criminalisation of people living with HIV for non-disclosure, potential exposure and non-intentional transmission during otherwise consensual sex.' I am also a member of Dialogue Advisory Group.
I will be delivering two keynote presentations at the ASHM conference in Canberra. 'HIV prevention for people living with HIV: why dignity and health must come first' and 'HIV and the criminal law: combating stigma through science'.
HIV And THE CRIMINAL LAW
Learn more about the genesis, remit and contents of the first international resource to explore the full range of issues relating to the criminalisation of HIV non-disclosure, exposure and transmission by watching the video of my presentation at the press conference to launch HIV and the Criminal Law at AIDS 2010 in Vienna.
Positive Health, Dignity and Prevention is the new human rights-based, PLHIV-led paradigm of 'positive prevention', developed by the Global Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS (GNP+) and UNAIDS. I was the rapporteur at the international technical consultation and have since worked with GNP+ and its partners as editor of a policy framework.
Download the technical consultation report here.
Formerly editor of NAM's flagship newsletter, HIV Treatment Update, I work as a writer, editor and policy consultant for national and international NGOs.
My areas of interest and expertise include:
HIV treatment, care and access
As a consultant I currently work with:
GNP+ (the Global Network of People Living with HIV - Amsterdam, The Netherlands)
NAM (National AIDS Manual - London, UK)
NAT (National AIDS Trust - London, UK)
UNAIDS (The United Nations Joint Programme on HIV/AIDS - Geneva, Switzerland).
As a journalist, I contribute to:
aidsmap.com (London, UK)
Baseline magazine (London, UK)
POZ magazine (New York, USA)
I also maintain a widely read blog that reports and comments on laws, prosecutions and media reporting of criminal HIV non-disclosure, exposure and transmission cases from around the world, and which encourages and highlights advocacy against such laws and prosecutions.
I worked with NAT as lead author of a new report, Estimating the likelihood of recent HIV infection – implications for criminal prosecution, which explores the validity and meaning of the Recent Infection Testing Algorithm HIV tests, or RITA tests, within the context of criminal prosecutions of HIV transmission.
The report, primarily aimed at professionals working in the criminal justice system and HIV specialists who may be called on as expert witnesses in criminal HIV transmission cases, calls for caution about the potential use of RITA results to determine timing of HIV infection.

Professor receives Career Achievement Award in Canine Research
Professor of Small Animal Medicine Dr. Kenneth Simpson was presented in August with the 2013 AVMF/AKC Career Achievement Award in Canine Research for his advancements in understanding gastrointestinal diseases in dogs.
Established in 2009 by the American Kennel Club (AKC) and American Veterinary Medical Foundation (AVMF), the award honors a candidate's long-term contribution to the field of canine research.
"It's an honor to be recognized by AKC and AVMA, the two leading organizations dedicated to health and well-being of dogs," said Simpson. "The support of organizations like AVMF and AKC is gratifying and essential as we continue to improve the health of all dogs."
Dr. Simpson's discovery of invasive E. coli in boxers and French bulldogs with Granulomatous colitis, a severe inflammatory bowel disease typically diagnosed in young Boxers and French Bulldogs for which he received a grant from the AKC Canine Health Foundation, has resulted in these breeds becoming a model for Crohn's disease in humans.
His contributions also include the application of culture-independent methods called fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for the identification of bacteria in tissues, the role of intestinal bacteria in disease, and the function of nutrition in gastrointestinal disease. His developments in FISH analysis for bacteria have now been applied to many aspects of veterinary and human medicine.
"The AKC is pleased to partner with the American Veterinary Medical Foundation, the largest national veterinarian-directed animal charity, to present this award to Dr. Simpson," said AKC's Mari-Beth O'Neill, AVP, Sport Services and Vet Outreach. "His work advancing animal health and welfare is greatly appreciated by the American Kennel Club."
AKC Board Member Dr. Charles Garvin presented the award at the Merial NIH National Veterinary Scholars Symposium this weekend at Michigan State University in Lansing, Michigan.

Wolves midfielder Nenad Milijas will seek to quit the club if he has not regained his first-team place by December.
The Serbia international's only senior action this season has been in the Carling Cup.
Milijas was not even named among the substitutes for Saturday's home Barclays Premier League clash with Newcastle and is running out of patience.
The 28-year-old said: "If it carries on like this then I will try to leave to go somewhere where I will play.
"I want to be here but, if I can't play, then it's better for me to go somewhere else.
"But we'll see. There are many games before I need to do anything like that. We will have another look in December."

Eric Platt
Eric Platt, Base Leader and geologist at Admiralty Bay, King George Island, suffered a heart attack whilst in the field with Jack Reid, 9 November 1948. They were approaching a pass in the mountains and although Jack Reid tried to carry him back to base he found it impossible and returned to base to find a search party already heading out to find them. By the time they had climbed back to the pass Eric had died. "Greatly distressed, they carried him back and he was buried near the base," recalls Sir Vivian Fuchs who was in the George VI Sound at the time. A memorial cross was erected.
This incident occurred only a few days before Sir Vivian Fuchs was to hear of the catastrophic fire at Hope Bay which led to the loss of Oliver Burd and Michael Green
Robert Stephenson, co-ordinator of The Antarctic Circle has provided an extract from the Halifax Courier of 14 April 1950.
"Soyland man who died in the Antarctic
"A richly coloured stained glass window, which Mr. and Mrs. John Platt, Prospect House, Soyland, have provided at St. Mary's Church, Cotton Stones, in memory of their son, Mr. Eric Platt. B.Sc., who died in the Antarctic, is to be dedicated at a special service on Sunday afternoon. The dedication will be performed by the Rev. G. L. Barber, former Vicar, and the present Vicar, Rev. W. I. G. Moffatt. will conduct the service.
"Mr. Eric Platt, a former prefect at Sowerby Bridge Grammar School, died in 1948 whilst working in the Antarctic as a member of the Falkland Islands Dependencies survey team. He had been associated with St. Mary's Church and school, was a member of the choir, and at one time the occasional organist. He had also been an altar server.
"Knight in armour
"The main colour schemes of the window are steel blue, a deeper blue, red and gold. There is the life-size figure of a knight in armour, with sword raised in his right hand and holding a shield in his left hand. On the shield is a lion rampant. At the top is a crown and lamp, also two angels. At the side of the knight is a chalice, and the design also includes a knight's helmet, a lion, a dove and other features.
In bold letters underneath the figure, is the word, "Courage." The inscription at the foot reads: "In proud memory of Eric Platt B.Sc., geologist who died on duty at Admiralty Bay, the Antarctic, 10th of November, 1948, aged 22." [see below for actual inscription]
"The window is the work of George Maile and Sons. Ltd., London. Mr. Kenneth Pawson, of Triangle, another Sowerby Bridge Grammar School old boy, who has been in the Antarctic as a member of the expedition, is now on his way home but cannot be back in time to take part in Sunday's Service."
Alan Coley, who wintered at Hope Bay in 1952 and 1953, has written to say that Eric was head boy at Sowerby Bridge Grammar School, when he was in the 5th form. Ian says he was attracted to service with Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, FIDS, by hearing Ken Pawson come back to the school to give an illustrated talk on his experiences." Ken Pawson wintered at Admiralty Bay in 1949 and was on his way home when the service of dedication took place at St Mary's. Ken who apparently emigrated to Canada wrote a book about his experiences entitled Antarctica: "----to a lonely land I know." Ken is also a poet having won the prestigious dog writers of America award in the poetry category.
Alan Coley relates, "Eric was an only child and his mother I think was Head Teacher of a local primary school. Eric studied Geology at the Victoria University Manchester and I followed him there in 1947. He caught in a blizzard while out Geologising at Admiralty Bay."
In response to an article appearing in the Daily Mail, 29 January 2011, Cyril Alderson, phoned to say that Eric had a brother an elder brother Brian. Cyril recalled that he used to travel on the bus to school at Sowerby Bridge Grammar School every day. He added that Prospect House is in the tiny hamlet of Lighthazels and that his father was a baker,
In response to an article in the Halifax Courier at the beginning of May 2011 Kath Hoare wrote to say that she had seen the article "about my uncle's brother. My mother, Olive Browes, knew the family quite well as Edward, Eric's brother, married her sister, Eileen Oscroft. It seems that there were three brothers and she doesn't think any of them had children.
"My Uncle Ned divorced Eileen and unfortunately died (it must be over 20 years ago) – the marriage was childless. Brian married Margaret and they emigrated to Australia – as far as my mum is aware, that marriage was also childless. My mum was quite upset that the window in Cottonstones Church had been harder to see when the church had changed the interior use so is very pleased to read of the plans to honour the memory of the dedicated and young explorers in London."
The photographs below were taken by the Robert Stephenson on a visit to St Mary's Church in May 2001. They show the blue knight, the inscription and the church. It is a pity if this glorious window is now partialy obscured.

Ang Lee has won the Academy Award for best director for his Life of Pi.
It's the second Oscar for Lee, who won in 2005 for Brokeback Mountain. He was also nominated in 2000 for directing Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. He becomes only the 19th director to win the honour multiple times.
The other nominees on Sunday night were Steve Spielberg (Lincoln), Michael Haneke (Amour), David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook) and Benh Zeitlin (Beasts of the Southern Wild).
This year's directing category was one of the most controversial, as it left out Ben Affleck for Argo and Kathryn Bigelow for Zero Dark Thirty.
The 85th Academy Awards are airing live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles with host Seth MacFarlane.

33 Saves for Leonoff
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Yale women's ice hockey team kept one of the top offenses in the country contained for most of the game Saturday afternoon at Ingalls Rink, but ultimately No. 3 Cornell was able to break open a 1-0 game with a pair of goals in a span of 52 seconds late in the second period. The Big Red came away with a 3-0 win despite 33 saves from junior goalie Jaimie Leonoff.
Cornell (12-1-2, 8-0-2 ECAC Hockey) entered the day with the second-best scoring offense in the country, averaging four goals per game. The lone goal of the first period came from Big Red forward Caroline DeBruin, whose shot eluded a screened Leonoff at the 10:43 mark.
Cornell goalie Paula Voorheis, making just her second start and fourth appearance of the year, made one of her best saves with 2:30 left in the first. She kicked aside a slap shot through traffic by senior defenseman Aurora Kennedy, and were it not for a solid defensive play from junior defenseman Madi Murray the Big Red could have taken the puck down to the other end of the ice for a goal right after that save.
Leonoff ended the first on a high note, stopped a blast from forward Jillian Saulnier and then pouncing on the rebound with 9.7 seconds remaining.
Yale (5-9-1, 3-4-1 ECAC Hockey) killed off three penalties in the first 10 minutes of the second period, and Leonoff came far out of the net to deny forward Jessica Campbell off a feed from Saulnier with seven minutes to play in the frame.
But just when it appeared that the Bulldogs would remain within one of the Big Red heading into the third, a pair of quick strikes by Cornell changed the complexion of the game. First, a slap shot by defenseman Hayleigh Cudmore trickled in after Leonoff appeared initially to have stopped it. Then, a Yale penalty gave the Big Red a chance to extend the lead even further. From behind the net, Saulnier fed the puck in front to Campbell. Campbell took a couple of hacks at it and eventually got it past Leonoff with less than a minute to play in the period.
That wound up being the only power play goal in seven chances for Cornell. The Big Red entered the day with the best power play in the nation, converting 29.7 percent of its chances.
Yale's best chance to cut into the three-goal lead in the third came on a power play with 13 minutes to play, but Voorheis denied a chance from right in front by sophomore forward Janelle Ferrara. Yale had a pair of power plays in the final six minutes but could not get the puck past Voorheis, who finished with 16 saves for her first career shutout.
Yale travels to Dartmouth next Friday for a 7:00 p.m. game.

General Motors is recalling about 686,000 midsize crossover utility vehicles made between 2007 and 2012 because their rear liftgates could fall off and injure people.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website, the vehicles are equipped with power liftgates that are supported by gas struts when they are open. The struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall.
