Abbotsford was declared the "murder capital of Canada" for its homicide rates in 2008 and 2009 – at the height of a drug war between the Red Scorpions and UN gangs.
Now, a different gang conflict is putting the city back in the running for the grisly title.
The Abbotsford-Mission census metropolitan (CMA) area tallied 10 murders in 2017, nine of them in Abbotsford. Charges have been laid in only two cases.
Each July, Statistics Canada releases the previous year's homicide rates for 33 Canadian CMAs.
Last year's murder toll would put the Abbotsford-Mission CMA's rate for 2017 at 5.53 per 100,000 people (based on a population of 180,518 in the 2016 census).
The only other CMA across the country that could top the local CMA, according to preliminary figures, is Thunder Bay, Ont., with a rate of 5.8.
That compares to a national average in 2016 of 1.68.
The Abbotsford-Mission CMA was at the top of the list for its 2008 rate, when it had 10 homicides (six in Abbotsford), and again in 2009, when there were nine (all in Abbotsford).
Many of those were gang-related killings related to the battle for drug turf between the Red Scorpions – then headed by the notorious Bacon brothers of Abbotsford – and the UN Gang.
Police at the time said initiatives focused on preventing gang violence, combined with the arrests or deaths of several key gangsters, resulted in a drop in those homicide numbers in the ensuing years.
Between 2010 and 2015, there were no more than four murders in any given year. In 2011, there were none.
But a new gang war began to emerge in late 2014, when 18-year-old Harwin Baringh was shot and killed while in his vehicle on Sparrow Drive in west Abbotsford.
The following year, the Abbotsford Police Department began talking about a conflict between two opposing groups, primarily made up of young South Asian men.
Police dubbed it the "Townline Hill conflict" – after the area of west Abbotsford where the majority of the violence and drive-by shootings were occurring.
As the conflict progressed, police indicated a gang war was underway, and more targeted killings began occurring.
Last year, the Abbotsford Police Department (APD) said the local issues were part of a bigger regional problem, which they now identify as the "Lower Mainland gang conflict."
That conflict reached a peak last year in Abbotsford, with seven of the murders being attributed to gangs or drugs.
Sgt. Casey Vinet said the escalation in gang activity and homicides is "very concerning" to the APD, given the threat it poses to public safety.
"We are in a very bad period right now," he said.
He said gang violence tends to come in waves and, although police have a "good handle of what's going on in the region," preventing violence and holding the players accountable is challenging.
Vinet said one of the barriers is a lack of co-operation from witnesses and victims.
He said the APD is undertaking, or continuing, several initiatives aimed at prevention, intervention and suppression.
These steps include gang-and-drug talks to every Grade 8 student in the district, after-school programming and support for at-risk kids.
As well, the APD will soon be forming a gang crime unit, with a focus on intervening and suppressing gang activity on a local level, Vinet said.
He said the APD will also continue to work with the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit and other agencies on investigations and prevention.
Vinet said it's hoped that a combination of tactics brings a reversal to the homicide numbers, as they did following the spike in 2008 and '09.
"No one approach by itself will solve this issue," he said.
– Feb. 20: Satkar Sidhu, 23, shot on Steelhead Court.
– March 3: Body of Joseph Kellington, 24, found on Ross Road after he had been missing since Jan. 29.
– March 24: Jaskarn Lally, 20, shot at home in 3500 block of Chase Street.
– May 31: Nektar Pardalis, 41, found in garage of home on Cameron Crescent.
– July 4: Clarence Crothers, 62, found dead in his apartment on Braun Avenue. Jeffrey Charles Halicki, 50, has been charged with second-degree murder.
– Aug. 4 – Jaspreet Sidhu, 18, shot on Oriole Crescent and crashed into house on George Ferguson Way.
– Aug. 31 – Sehajdeep Sidhu, 18, shot on Gladwin Road south of Huntingdon Road.
– Nov. 6 – Const. John Davidson, 53, shot while responding to a shots-fired call at a strip mall on Mt. Lehman Rd. Oscar Arfmann has been charged with first-degree murder.
– Dec. 28 – Alexander Blanarou, 24, found shot in field on Bates Road near Harris Road.
– Aug. 16: Body of Chelsey Gauthier, 22, of Abbotsford found in isolated area near Sylvester Road and Dale Road. She had been reported missing on July 30.

Kevin Bauder said that Albert Mohler was no indifferentist because Mohler had help purge liberalism from the convention. When he said that, I had a deep sigh within my soul. It was so wrong on at least two fronts. First, liberalism wasn't purged from the SBC. Liberalism is still in the convention and it is still supported by the cooperative program.
Several years ago, Mark Dever did an audio interview with Mark Minnick about, among other things, the doctrine of separation. In that interview Dever told Minnick that he didn't leave the convention, despite the violation of the doctrine of separation, because of the money and buildings that would be lost if they pulled from the convention. Those kinds of points ought to be further explored, instead of allowed the drop to the ground because someone might be afraid of a celebrity evangelical. Dever's point recognizes liberalism in the Southern Baptist Convention, that makes only bucks and buildings enough of a motive to stay. All the churches of the convention, whether liberal or conservative, are cooperating. That's part of what it means to be a Southern Baptist.
Second, biblical separation is "come out from among them and be separate," not "fight them on the inside while staying in." If someone has been a long time separatist, he knows that. He knows the verse in 2 Corinthians 6. He also knows a little leaven leavens the whole lump. The leaven of liberalism leavens the lump of the SBC. That is one reason why one "comes out," instead of "staying in." "Staying in and trying to change from the inside" isn't separation.
One of the charges of Trueman against evangelicalism is that it doesn't have the tools necessary to align it with God. He didn't say what those were, but one of them is discipline. A church can discipline its members. It can purge out the old leaven. Jesus didn't put the tool of discipline into the toolbox of the Southern Baptist Convention. Things might be better there, but leaven still leavens that lump.
It wasn't that Bauder did nothing. He did do something. However, he didn't do what he should have done. He didn't do what a separatist should have done. Maybe the evangelicals who chose Bauder knew he would do just what he did, which wasn't enough. What Bauder did do was describe indifferentism, something lost to almost every evangelical. He also explained how bad it was. However, it was as if no one was actually guilty of it, except for Billy Graham, who was then excused of it by the time we were done, by the sheer act of supporting a Mohler seminary presidency---which Bauder advocated with his silence.
Many won't like my evaluation of Kevin Bauder. I appreciate a lot of what he writes and says. He at least teaches separation, even if he falls woefully short. He still far surpasses Mohler, to his credit. But doctrine is not like horseshoes, where you get points for coming closer than someone else.
Both Bauder and Mohler support levels of cooperation. Bauder likes the Mohler triage. They both rank doctrines to differentiate levels of unity. Bauder would also say to determine the recipients of his separation.
This above approach to unity and separation are not what we see in the Bible. Bauder seems to see the primary objective of separation the protection of a true gospel. However, separation also preserves the purity of a church, which is a reason it is often called ecclesiastical separation.
Nowhere does the Bible mention anything about separating only over the gospel or only over the fundamentals or even only over essential doctrines. Churches separate over non-repentance over wrong doctrine and false practice, both of which will contaminate a church. Separation passages mention more the gospel. Certainly the gospel is one doctrine we separate over (Gal 1:6-9), but there is so much more.
I suspect that the theological reason both Bauder and Mohler hold to indefensible positions on both unity and separation is because of their faulty ecclesiology. If the true church is all believers, then all Christians must unify. Mohler is closer to that position than Bauder. On the other hand, every believer is to separate from unrepentant false doctrine and practice. Bauder is closer to that position than Mohler. The rankings of doctrine occur in order to attempt to bridge the gap between unity and separation, an actual unbridgeable chasm with their ecclesiology.
The Book Room
The ETS provides a room for exhibits, which is mainly book sales. You are admitted only as a conference attendee. Your badge is worth something. Once inside, there is a lot to see. You've got all the major Christian publishers.
As I walked around, I found some of the exhibits very curious. There was the Seventh Day Adventist exhibit. You could stop by the old earth exhibit. You might be interested in the Christian feminist exhibit, pushing egalitarianism. It corresponds to an evangelical lack of quality control.
You get 40-50% off new books and there is quite a selection, altogether bigger than most Christian book stores you might visit and heavy on the exegetical and theological in such a setting.
First Session
The first time segment went from 8:30am to 11:40am. For that one time period, you had the choice of something like 15 venues with categories of Christian philosophy, ethics, Old Testament theology, historic theology, Christian history, 1 Corinthians, etc. And then within each of those venues, you would get three or four presentations with short breaks in between. I had a couple that I was interested in, but I chose to go with celebrity for the first session.
It was a session that included several evangelical luminaries: Charles Colson, Robert George from Princeton, and others. It was held in Parc 55 in a 100 seat room with about 30-40 in it. I was happy about my choice. I'll write more about it tomorrow.

Given that coincidences and synchronicity have increased with me personally (as well as with others), and that the process seems to be accelerating, then perhaps the same thing can happen between planets and stars. If the structure of space and time is fleshed out fractally, could then relationships follow a fractal schematic where miniscule relationships mirror universal relationships?
Anyway, I haven't looked into past sunspots. I would assume if there had always been a relationship then it would have been discovered by now.

After any 'natural' event, I always check the state of the Sun - mainly out of curiosity, and partially out of habit. I suppose I do this because I know the Sun is crucial to our existence on this planet, not only because it holds our planet in place and provides light, heat, etc, but it also affects our human experience on a deep conscious level. It is the very key to our existence. Some believe the Sun has its own unique consciousness, and our collective human consciousness is its spawn and that we're intimately tied to it on all levels. If this is true, perhaps the Sun has been (and still is) attempting to establish some communication between us and it. Considering its erratic behavior of late, what if it's simply reflecting our own erratic behavior as a planetary presence? Could the relationship between Sun and Earth be even more symbiotic than previously thought? I think it could be, take this example of 4 sunspots forming a straight line from last year...what was being said there?
very impressive, evasius. i held a belief from childhood that our thoughts effect our sun which decides our weather. other writers have claimed not only that the stars effect our DNA but that we effect the stars also. and why not? from a holograghic universe point of view it makes perfect sense.

Classroom Focus
Yolanda was concerned about her son's disruptive classroom behaviors.
Daniel is a 6th grader with a lot of energy. A few months ago, his teachers contacted Yolanda and told her that her son frequently talks out in class and has been unfocused on his school work. Daniel's behavior escalated to a point where his middle school threatened to kick him out. And because he has had so many school transitions in the past few years, Yolanda wanted to make sure that didn't happen.
As a single parent, Yolanda does what she can—she's been in close communication with the school, sits with him while he completes his homework every night, limits tv/internet time and found Daniel a mental health counselor for him. And in the midst of all of this, she's also struggling to keep a roof over their heads. The family is on the verge of losing their apartment, and while she tries to keep those troubles away from Daniel, she knows he can sense when she's upset and preoccupied.
Wondering if Daniel's behavior was linked to their unstable housing situation, Yolanda came to our Family Resource Center looking for help and got it through the Education Rights Project. Our Education Director, Katherine, discovered Daniel was not only dealing with his mother's anxiety about being evicted, but that he had been diagnosed with ADHD and was in Special Education when the family lived in Pennsylvania. However, his Individualized Education Plan (IEP), which included modified testing and pull-out sessions for emotional support, never followed him to New York. In other words, Daniel has been not been enrolled in Special Education for over two years.
Now Yolanda has a better understanding of Daniel's rights, which means she is better able to advocate on his behalf.
Thanks to her efforts, Daniel got a new evaluation from the school psychologist and a new IEP to suit his needs. Now, he has the tools to check his emotions and remain focused in the classroom. And Yolanda has the tools she needs to fight for him.

As you've (probably) guessed by now, I'm M. C. Rohweder!
I've loved writing for as long as I can remember, and have always been a fan of paranormal stories and romances. Naturally, that's led me to write them!
Some of my favorite authors include Meg Cabot (Mediator series), Richelle Mead (Vampire Academy series), and M. A. George (Aqua). They've managed to, in most ways, make me feel connected to their characters throughout the entirety of their stories. That isn't an easy feat, though it isn't impossible.
I hope you enjoy and (more importantly) connect with my characters as you travel through their stories with them.

I started cpat a little over a year ago, and after a rough start, it has been good for me. I never felt fatigued and had a sleep study because my ankles were swollen and red. The vascular doc found no problem and the cardiologist said my heart was fine so the next step is to get a sleep study. I did not do it. A few months later a hematologist found my hemoglobin was dangerously high. He told me to give blood today and get a sleep test.
I am sure he explained it to me in medicine for dummy terms- but that is more than most Docs will do. Too much hemoglobin means your blood is too thick and you are in danger of a clout and stroke. With sleep apnea your body senses there is not enough oxygen in your blood and may think the problem is there is not enough blood. Your body makes more blood, your veins are thin walled, and after they stretch to capacitance they past some of the more liquid elements of your blood into your body through their walls. It happens in your ankles because that is where veins are most stressed trying to return blood uphill back to your heart. The sleep test will determine if you have sleep apnea, and many things can cause ankle swelling, but elevated hemoglobin narrows the possibilities. The above assumes I remember it right
My first sleep Doc did not believe this. My second Doc thought it sounded plausible. Has anyone else been told swollen ankles are the consequence of sleep apnea? BTW cpat reduced swelling dramatically but it has not disappeared. BTW-2 I did not realize I was sleep deprived before cpat and now I do.
I have another oddball issue . With a nasal mask periodically air blows out my tear duct. My pressure is at 15 and the mask was a Mirage FX. It happens on nights when I am not congested, starts later in the evening, and is always left eye only. It is unlike a typical leak in that it is a momentary puff and 2 to 20 seconds later another. I will admit I am not 1000% certain it is not a mask leak but I am certain it is at the corner of my left eye. A Fitlife mask solves the problem but leaks terribly. Anyone else have a tear duct issue?
I will have some questions regarding my 1-2 AHI coupled with a high leak rate but I need a few weeks of Sleepyhead data first. Very happy to find this place as my sleep docs were a disappointment.

JACKSON — A key Democratic lawmaker believes he's reached a compromise with Republican Gov. Haley Barbour over proposed changes to the Mississippi Department of Employment Security to make the state eligible for more stimulus money.
A bill to reauthorize the Mississippi Department of Employment Security stalled during this year's session when some Democrats wanted to force Barbour to accept $56 million in federal stimulus for the jobless.
The department handles unemployment claims and pays out benefits. Businesses pay a tax to help cover the cost.
House Labor Committee Chairman Rufus Straughter of Belzoni said yesterday that Barbour won't fight an eligiblity change in a bill passed by the House.
The bill would allow the state to begin considering the most recently completed quarters when determining eligibility for unemployment benefits. Under the current system, up to six months of a worker's earnings are not considered because employers and the unemployment agency are given that much time to process paperwork. The department has been given stimulus money that could be used to upgrade to an electronic system, Straughter said.
The eligibility change would allow Mississippi to receive $18.7 million of the $56.1 million.
The language adjusting the eligibility period is in a bill approved by the House before lawmakers recessed this past weekend. The House also passed a bill to reauthorize the agency.
"While I still strongly believe the state should receive all federal funds available for unemployed workers during this time of fierce economic hardship, I am satisfied with the compromise to give close to 7,000 Mississippians $18.7 million in assistance," he said in a news release.
Senate Finance Chairman Dean Kirby said he won't hold a committee meeting until April 20 when the legislative session resumes.
The governor remains opposed to changing state law to provide unemployment benefits to those seeking part-time jobs, another stimulus requirement.
Barbour spokesman Dan Turner said the governor wouldn't actively oppose the revised eligibility period, but "Barbour has been consistent in his opposition to expanding unemployment benefits to those who are not willing to accept full-time employment."
Barbour has said changing benefits for part-time workers could lead to a tax increase on the businesses that pay into a fund to cover the benefits after the stimulus money is gone. The bill approved by the House doesn't deal with part-time worker benefits.
The eligibility change is part of the stimulus' modernization option, which involves quicker data collection so the most recent quarter can be used to determine if jobless people had sufficient wages to qualify for unemployment benefits.
Kirby, R-Pearl, said he had not seen the legislation passed by the House. "If the bills are worthy of bringing out, we'll bring them out" during the April 20 committee meeting, he said.
Regardless, Kirby said, lawmakers intend to keep the unemployment agency funded and operational.
"We have too many people who depend on that," he said.
The bills are House Bill 1755 and House Bill 1756.

Car Seat Scare
Parents can relax. After Consumer Reports terrified many parents by issuing a review early this month of car seats that deemed most of them to be miserable failures at protecting children in a crash, they've just issued a statement that retracts their review and apologizes for faulty testing methods.
Apparently, the illustrious magazine outsourced their testing in this instance, and the testers simulated crashes that were twice as fast as originally claimed -- completely skewing data as a result. You can read the full article on the retraction at MSNBC here.

Sometimes it's all in the little details… adding the last few touches to these built-in bookcases has taken a little bit of time but they look SO clean and beautiful right now! As if they had come built into the original architecture of the house rather than an addition that we've added.
It's hard to tell in these before and after photos (especially when looking at them on a monitor), but the sanding, painting and caulking touch ups make all of the difference up close.
Here's a snapshot at what we need to finish before these bookcases are 'finished'.
Starting from the top: shelf inserts need to be installed, caulking of all cracks and crevices, drawer hardware and molding where the bookshelves meet the wall and windows.
First up after installation was a heavy amount of finish sanding. My mom and I knocked this out in an afternoon, but it's a messy process! The finished result (after two sanding blocks worth of buffing), were smooth, perfect cabinets.
Then the cabinets were repainted.
The seams in the drawer and cabinetry faces are hard to see… but if you really want that polished look a dose of caulking around all edging is the cherry on top.
Looking good!!
And now for the hardware. I don't have any shots of my Dad installing the hardware, but he helped us line up all of the pulls and drilled through the cabinet drawers to install each. I ordered knobs and campaign-style pulls from the same source as our kitchen hardware, I LOVE how it looks.
We are getting there! Still need to add shelving inserts and the molding where the cabinetry meets the walls and windows. And the trim at the ceiling. Then these guys are finished.
Can't wait to fill up those shelves and to finally have settled on window seat and window covering fabrics. Be back soon…
PS More nursery makeover posts can be found right here if you want to start from the beginning! And here's what the first nursery looked like.

I've been a tenant since mid year of 2013 and have had a excellent experience with the moving in process. The Read Moreleasing office was very knowledgeable of the needs that I required. The amenities that are throughout the community are a bonus as well.
November 26, 2013
Not a bad community but the new management was really a step backwards. Units seem over priced considering the Read Morey are increasing rent prices and include absolutely nothing. Myself and several other tenants are being forced out due to these issues.

GREAT staff, always helpful and friendly.

Living here is quiet and generally good. I have only had one problem with a visiting manager who was extremely Read More rude and pushy. Don't know if she was trying to impress the staff by being so but it isn't professional at all. Other than that, I think basic cable should be included. At a group rate, you should be able to include it for about $15 per month per unit and save us a lot more.

Updated March 5 with interviews with DW's Wade Thomas and Ian Johnston of ISD.
Whenever a big company like Digital Watchdog acquires a start-up like Innovative Security Design (ISD), as happened earlier this week, a common concern is whether the acquired company will be allowed to continue to innovate. Executives from both DW and ISD told Security Systems News, there's no need to worry.
Most companies want an acquisition to "assimilate into [its] culture, revenue and business model," Wade Thomas, Digital Watchdog president told me. "We want to let ISD do what they do best and give them runway to grow."
Digital Watchdog, a privately held manufacturer of video surveillance products, on March 3 announced that it had acquired ISD.
ISD will remain an independent entity within DW, and it will continue to work with OEM partners.
ISD was founded by Ian Johnston, former CTO of IQInvision, in 2012. Here's an interview I did with Johnston when he launched the company. ISD turned some heads at ISC West last year when it introduced its netSeries camera—the first IP camera that uses Microsoft Windows as its base operating systems. Here's an interview I did with Johnston about the netSeries camera last May.
This week, Johnston said that most of ISD's suitors were established IP camera companies, were he would have to "go in and change their minds and break up their notions of what an IP camera is."
In some ways, ISD is more of a "design house or solutions factory so-to-speak," Johnston said. And, DW will let ISD continue that way. "DW has great manufacturing experience and depth that will help us be price competitive," he added.
It will also allow ISD to "build inventory and be attractive to really large companies that are looking to partner with us on an OEM [basis]."
DW's products include: IP and analog cameras, DVRs, NVRs, software and apps. It has been in business since 1987. In addition to its corporate office in Tampa, Fla., it has an office in Cerritas, Calif. It will keep ISD's office in Irvine, Calif. Its business is concentrated in North and South America and has about 75 employees in the United States.
DW has engineering and manufacturing facilities in Seoul, Korea. Its products are assembled in the U.S., however.Thomas declined to release terms of the deal.
YARMOUTH, Maine—Organizers of TechSec Solutions 2014 announced the educational program for the conference, which will take place Jan. 28-29 at the Delray Beach Marriott in Delray Beach, Fla.
WESTMINSTER, Colo.—Innovative Security Design (ISD) launched its netSeries—the first IP camera that uses Microsoft Windows as the base operating system—at ISC West in March, but a lot of PSA Security integrators were taking a good look at the product last week at the PSA-TEC conference.
IRVINE, Calif.—The reason so many analog cameras are still being installed, says Ian Johnston, industry veteran and CEO of a new camera company called Innovative Security Design (ISD), is that IP cameras are "largely the same as they were five years ago."

The Conservative grassroots rebellion over plans to equalise laws to allow gay and lesbian couples to marry has moved up a step with a group of party constituency chairmen and longstanding supporters taking their protest to Downing Street.
A letter signed by 22 current and former chairmen of local groups urges the prime minister to reconsider or at least delay the plans, which face a crucial vote this week.
With 303 Conservative MPs and more than twice that many parliamentary constituencies in the UK, the signatories officially represent a small proportion of the party grassroots party. But their intervention will be taken seriously with growing signs of unhappiness among Tory MPs and their supporters. Even MPs who support equal marriage laws report they are inundated with emails and letters objecting to the move and only a small handful are in support.
Sunday newspapers report that up to four cabinet ministers and potentially more than half of Conservative MPs are considering voting against the bill on Tuesday – which despite being a free vote would be an embarrassment to the Tory leadership and especially for David Cameron, who has been so closely associated with the proposal. No 10 claim the number of likely Tory no-votes is closer to 130 MPs. The bill is expected to pass with overwhelming support from Liberal Democrats and Labour.
In their letter, the constituency chairmen say: "Resignations from the party are beginning to multiply and we fear that, if enacted, this bill will lead to significant damage to the Conservative party in the runup to the 2015 election."
However Tim Montgomerie, editor of the Conservative Home party-supporting website, pointed to analysis of polls by YouGov showing opposition to equal marriage would only cost the party at most 1% of its total current estimated support at the next election, not including any votes it might win as a result of pushing through the measure.
The letter's signatories say there is a lot of public opposition. They argue civil partnerships already allow gay and lesbian couples to form legal ties, and warn the proposals do not give adequate protection for churches and teachers to refuse to conduct the ceremonies or teach pupils about them.
But they reserve their fiercest criticism for bringing forward the bill "without adequate debate or consultation with either the membership of the Conservative party or the country at large".
They add: "We are of the clear view that there is no mandate for this bill to be passed in either the 2010 Conservative manifesto or the 2010 coalition agreement and that it is being pushed through parliament in a manner which a significant proportion of the Conservative party members find extremely distasteful and contrary to the principles of both the party and the best traditions of our democracy."
A spokesman told the Guardian that although the bill was expected to pass on Tuesday they wanted the PM "to take the decision he'll slow the whole thing down". He added: "He could quite reasonably postpone the thing until after the general election."
In the Mail on Sunday, the education secretary, Michael Gove, has written in support of Tuesday's bill. His article represents possibly the most high-profile intervention in favour of Cameron's actions. "Nothing in my life has changed me more, matters more or influences me more than my marriage," writes Gove, and it has "brought me and brings me a happiness greater than any I had known before". He adds: "It's wrong to say to gay men and women that their love is less legitimate. It's wrong to say that because of how you love and who you love, you are not entitled to the same rights as others. It's wrong because inequality is wrong."
The culture minister, Ed Vaizey, insisted the vote would not tear the Tory party apart and claimed internal divisions were a "civilised debate".
"We'll see what happens in the vote on Tuesday. Various numbers have been bandied about, but what I would say is that it is good-natured division," he said on the Murnaghan programme on Sky News.
The former children's minister Tim Loughton agreed that it would not tear the party apart but warned the bill was "full of pitfalls" and would set MP against MP.
He told Murnaghan: "There's quite a lot of things that were in our manifesto which made it to the coalition agreement which we have yet to deliver, and yet gay marriage is something which we had no green paper, no white paper, no manifesto commitment of any party. It wasn't in the coalition agreement, and all of a sudden it is taking huge priority. It is going to take up a lot of parliamentary time and is going set MP against MP, and we don't need it."

Royals rescue thrilling pointThe Royals battled their way to a point against Fulham at Madejski Stadium, in a pulsating encounter that will certainly thrill the neutrals on Match of the Day on Saturday evening.
Mikele Leigertwood gave the home side a lead at the break thanks to a trademark rocket strike from the edge of the box, before goals from Bryan Ruiz and Chris Baird swung the momentum towards the Cottagers in the second period.
Substitute Garath McClearly leveled the scores once more by clipping home a cutback from Jason Roberts - but a well taken strike from Dimitar Berbatov appeared to have killed off any hope of a reward for McDermott's men's efforts.
However their never-say-die spirit was again exhibited, as another replacement - Hal Robson-Kanu, snatched a draw by bundling home in stoppage time.
In truth Reading almost won it at the death, as Robson-Kanu and McCleary were denied by Schwarzer - but once again the men in blue and white were denied their first victory of the season.
Former Cottagers man Pavel Pogrebnyak had the first real chance of the game, as Jobi McAnuff's breakaway ended in Nicky Shorey chipping a delightful cross into the danger zone – where under extreme pressure the giant Russian nodded wide.
There was certainly room for Royals wingers Kebe and McAnuff to manoeuvre in the opening stages, with Jason Roberts also providing plenty of width on his return to the side.
At the other end Dimitar Berbatov mustered his side's first effort of the game fifteen minutes in, lofting a shot high over the bar from 25 yards after clever work from Kieran Richardson.
A better chance fell to Berbatov's strike partner Hugo Rodallega five minutes later, as visitors' number 20 headed tamely at McCarthy when given plenty of space in the centre of the box.
The middle of the first half saw a slight change of momentum in the Cottagers' favour, as former Real Madrid man Mahamadou Diarra blazed a shot off target from distance with twenty minutes remaining in the opening period.
But Brian McDermott's men would bounce back – and with a bang. An astute move involving Roberts, Pogrebnyak and McAnuff resulted in the ball rolling to Mikele Leigertwood on the edge of the box – and 'Ledge' made no mistake, hammering home a superb strike into the top corner.
The Mad Stad exploded with noise, and Reading's popular number 8 was the definition of joy as he dedicated his celebration to his baby son, Cameron – born in September.
Blue and white tails were up, as Roberts' canny jostling won a free-kick on 20 yards form goal – which 'The Pog' hammered wide of the post.
As ever in the top flight, there was always a threat from the opposition, even in spells of Reading domination – as Rodellega again headed weakly at McCarthy from close ranges after 25 minutes.
Duff also latched onto a half chance from Richardson's square ball in the late stages of the half, but the Irish international steered wide of McCarthy's goal.
An initially quiet second half started to spring into life ten minutes after the interval, as Shaun Cummings swung in a dangerous cross to the far post that had Schwarzer flapping, – before narrowly flying over the head of Pogrebnyak.
Moments later Roberts broke into the right hand side of the box, before toeing the ball past Fulham's number one and into the danger zone, but some desperate defending from the visitors ensured Martin Jol's men conceded only a corner.
In need, perhaps of some inspiration – Jol introduced the technically efficient Bryan Ruiz with half an hour remaining - and it was he who would drag Fulham back into the game.
The Costa Rican didn't have too much time to ponder as the ball fell to him on the bounce 20 yards from goal, and it was therefore all the more impressive as he thundered a wonder strike past McCarthy and into the same corner Leigertwood had pinpointed in the first half.
The Royals almost found themselves behind in dubious circumstances moments later, as Berbatov appeared to foul Mariappa on the box before taking a snap shot from six yards – which crept wide and into the side netting.
The home side made an effort to respond – Kebe finding space on the right and dancing across the area before seeing his low shot well held by Schwarzer – with Roberts ready to pounce on any spillage.
Chris Baird's free-kick deflected narrowly wide as home supporters began to feel their hearts in their mouths with 13 minutes remaining, and from the resulting corner – heads slumped further.
Baird met a dangerous swinging cross at the near post, heading past a helpless McCarthy to leave Reading with an uphill battle.
However it was a battle they would relish as two substitutes combined to level the scores once more. Hal Robson-Kanu scampered into the area before laying the ball into the six yard box, where Roberts' neat touch allowed McCleary to clip home.
Another replacement, Adam Le Fondre tried to match the breath taking efforts of Leigertwood and Ruiz before him with five minutes remaining as he controlled deftly on the edge of the area before swinging a volley at goal – which was well held again by Schwarzer.
Once more, however, a touch of class would silence the home support.
The Royals were again forced to settle for a Premier League point after another pulsating encounter at Madejski Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The match will certainly be a favourite for the neutral on Match of the Day - as the momentum changed constantly following Mikele Leigertwood's brilliantly struck first half opener.
Martin Jol's men struck back in the second period through an equally impressive effort from Bryan Ruiz, before Chris Baird headed his side into the lead.
Garath McCleary came off the bench to clip home a leveler for the home side, and although Berbatov's 88th minute strike appeared to have killed off any hope for McDermott's men - they showed their hallmarked fighting spirit, as substitute Hal Robson-Kanu bundled home an equaliser in stoppage time.
Berbatov had been relatively quiet up until the 87th minute – but he sprung into action in front of the visiting fans, finding space before whipping an unstoppable effort into the net from the left hand side.
Anyone who witnessed McDermott's men rise to the top of the Championship last year would have noted that they didn't give ever give up without a fight – and the Cottagers discovered this to their cost as stoppage time loomed at Madejski Stadium.
Captain McAnuff won a free-kick on the touchline, and as the ball was clipped into the box an epic goalmouth scramble ensued – resulting in Robson-Kanu somehow bundling in from close range.
It didn't stop there – the home side went for the jugular. Schwarzer had to be on top form to deny Robson-Kanu and McCleary – before Roberts almost diverted into the net from all of a yard in the dying seconds.
3-3 it would finish – and certainly an encounter for the neutral to enjoy on Match of the Day.

But the Democrats are staying put, in Illinois, to avoid a quorum and thus stall a proposal by Mr. Walker that would strip public employee unions of nearly all their collective bargaining powers, allow publicly owned power plants to be sold with what critics say is little guarantee of fair value, and give the governor's appointees what public health advocates describe as expansive new powers to limit health care coverage for lower-income residents.

SEC v. John S. Kramer, W. Jeffrey Kramer, Richard K. Pulling, Jr., and Keith E.C. Pulling (Defendants), and Nancy Kramer, Elizabeth Kramer Whitney, Lucien D. Yokana, Northeast Investment Properties, and Vermont Capital Investors (Relief Defendants), Civil-2-690 (MLC) (D. N.J.)
Today, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against John S. Kramer, W. Jeffrey Kramer, Richard K. Pulling, Jr., and Keith E.C. Pulling, for insider trading. Named also in the complaint as relief defendants are John Kramer's wife Nancy Kramer, his daughter Elizabeth Kramer Whitney, his client Lucien D. Yokana, and two family partnerships he controlled, Northeast Investment Properties ("Northeast Investment") and Vermont Capital Investors ("Vermont Capital"). Jeffrey Kramer, Richard Pulling, Keith Pulling, and Yokana have agreed to settlements with the Commission.
The complaint alleges that on two separate occasions in 2000, Jeffrey Kramer obtained material nonpublic information while working in the trust division of a national bank located in Hartford, Connecticut, and misused that information to earn illegal profits trading stock. The complaint further alleges that in each instance, he also tipped his father John Kramer and his friend Richard Pulling, and Richard Pulling then tipped his brother Keith Pulling. Both times, John Kramer, Richard Pulling, and Keith Pulling made improper use of the nonpublic or "inside" information to obtain illegal trading profits. The complaint alleges that collectively, the defendants made approximately $620,000 in illegal trading profits.
The complaint alleges that no later than June 14, 2000, Jeffrey Kramer learned that a customer of the bank he worked for was forming a trust for the purpose of acquiring Justin Industries, Inc. ("Justin"). Between June 14 and June 19, 2000, Jeffrey Kramer, John Kramer, Richard Pulling. and Keith Pulling purchased 40,750 shares of Justin stock. On June 20, 2000, Justin announced that it had agreed to a cash tender offer made by another company, and the price of Justin stock rose in response to the announcement. Following the June 20, 2000 announcement, the defendants sold the Justin stock they had purchased for total illicit profits of $185,650. The complaint further alleges that by August 7, 2000, Jeffrey Kramer learned that the same customer was forming another trust for the purpose of acquiring Republic Group, Inc. ("Republic"). Between August 8 and August 11, 2000, Jeffrey Kramer, John Kramer, Richard Pulling and Keith Pulling purchased 172,900 shares of Republic stock. On August 11, 2000, Republic announced that it had entered into a merger agreement with the trust. Again, the announcement caused a substantial increase in the price of Republic stock. The defendants then sold the Republic stock they had purchased for total illicit profits of $434,181.
The Commission alleges that as a result of the conduct described above, John Kramer, Jeffrey Kramer, Richard Pulling and Keith Pulling violated Sections 10(b) and 14(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") and Rules 10b-5 and 14e-3 thereunder. The Commission is seeking permanent injunctions, disgorgement of the illegal trading profits, prejudgment interest, and civil penalties against them. The Commission also alleges that Nancy Kramer, Elizabeth Kramer Whitney, Yokana, Northeast Investment, and Vermont Capital all received illegal profits because John Kramer bought Republic and Justin stock for them. The Commission is not charging them with fraud, but is seeking disgorgement of the ill-gotten gains they received due to John Kramer's alleged illegal trading.
John Kramer, age 71 and Nancy Kramer, age 71, live in Skillman, New Jersey and in Greensboro, Vermont; Jeffrey Kramer, age 45, lives in Glastonbury, Connecticut; Richard Pulling, age 45, lives in Skillman, New Jersey; Keith Pulling, age 42, lives in Oak Ridge, North Carolina; Elizabeth Kramer Whitney, age 40, lives in Locust Valley, New York; and Yokana, age 75, lives in Princeton, New Jersey.
Without admitting or denying the facts alleged in the complaint, Jeffrey Kramer, Richard Pulling, Keith Pulling, and Yokana have agreed to settlements under which they will pay a total of $479,902. The settlements filed with the court for approval provide that:
(1) Jeffrey Kramer, Richard Pulling, and Keith Pulling consent to entry of final judgments permanently enjoining them from future violations of Sections 10(b) and 14(e) of the Exchange Act and Rules 10b-5 and 14e-3 thereunder;
(2) Jeffrey Kramer will pay $103,212.00 in disgorgement, $11,656.00 in prejudgment interest, and $154,818.00 in penalties;
(3) Richard Pulling will pay $52,387 in disgorgement, $5,938 in prejudgment interest, and $52,387 in penalties;
(4) Keith Pulling will pay $30,450 in disgorgement, $3,505 in prejudgment interest, and $30,450 in penalties; and
(5) Yokana will pay $32,450 in disgorgement, and $2,649 in prejudgment interest.
The litigation is on-going against John Kramer, Nancy Kramer, Elizabeth Kramer Whitney, Northeast Investment, and Vermont Capital.

We tried to have tacos over at El Taco Rico for lunch on Tuesday however we pulled up and they were closed. This set off a Twitter search to see where we should eat instead. Ended up at That's Amore, a trailer just west of the AMLI apartments on Riverside/IH 35. Their sandwiches were great: bread with just the right amount of crunch on the outside, chew in the middle. The basil pesto was clearly home made and had the right balance of garlicky goodness similar to the way I make it. Fresh mozzarella included with actual flavor, rather than that tasteless crap that appears on sandwiches. Only tried two sandwiches, but will definitely be back for more. Unfortunately, their menu on the website doesn't work but they have a good mix of Italian panini's and several salads. Although it was an admittedly small sample size, they have the best panini's in town in my opinion.
Since we were there, we tried a veggie taco from Karma Tacos in the same park... when you want a taco from El Taco Rico, it sets a high expectation and Karma Taco didn't come close. Underseasoned, bad corn tortilla, and served without salsa.
The third trailer is some sort of pizza-themed place. While eating our lunch, the owner brought us an order of their dessert. It consisted of 6 plum-sized fried balls with the consistency of a funnel cake. Sprinkled with powder sugar and drizzled with a fruit-based sauce. It made for a tasty dessert that made me want to come back and try some of their pizza.

The Effect on Clip Markers Migration After Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy by Postprocedure Mammogram
You are scheduled to have a biopsy because a lesion was seen on your mammogram. Sometimes,
the lesion is completely removed during the biopsy. Therefore, a clip is usually placed to
mark the biopsy site. If some of the tissue in this area needs to be removed by a surgeon
at a later date, the clip will mark the area for your surgeon to remove.
All participants in this study will already be scheduled for a stereotactic biopsy with clip
placement followed by a mammogram, as a part of the standard of care. You will need to sign
a separate consent document for these procedures.
Before you can start treatment on this study, you will have "screening tests." These tests
will help the doctor decide if you are eligible to take part in this study. Blood (about 1
teaspoon) will be drawn for routine tests. Women who are able to have children must have a
negative blood (about 1 teaspoon) pregnancy test before they can take part in this study.
If you are eligible and you choose to take part in this study, you will be randomly assigned
(as in the toss of a coin) to one of two study groups. There will be an equal chance of
being assigned to either group.
If you are assigned to Group 1, your breast will be compressed the same way as the breast
was compressed during the biopsy in the first mammogram picture. In the second picture,
your breast will be compressed the opposite way (a 90-degree rotation) from the way the
first picture was done.
If you are assigned to Group 2, your breast will be compressed in a 90-degree rotation from
the way the breast was compressed during your biopsy in the first mammogram picture. In the
second picture, your breast will be compressed the same way as during the biopsy.
A researcher will review the mammogram to measure and record the distance of the biopsy clip
from the biopsied lesion.
If your biopsy is benign (non-cancerous), you will return to the clinic for a mammogram once
a year, as is standard of care. Researchers would like to review the mammogram that is
taken 1 year after the biopsy in order to check to see if the clip has moved or stayed in
the same place.
This is an investigational study. The clip used in this study is FDA approved. Up to 60
patients will take part in the study. All will be enrolled at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.
Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Diagnostic

Buying a Completely Inappropriate Gift for the Grandkids
We did our whirlwind trip to Russia in only five days. Hopefully, for those of you going there on vacation, you will have much longer to enjoy the sights, absorb the culture, eat the food, etc. I took up the whole last blog post on just one Russian bar, so let me clue you in on the rest of the trip. Now, this is going to go fast, so pay attention.
My number one priority was visiting Anastasia's Summer Palace, Tsarskoe Selo, (OK, it really wasn't HERS, you know that, right? It was her dad's and he was a Tsar, so she like, got to use it. She was, as we say in America about all the Euro royals, a Member of the Lucky Sperm Club). My husband, bless his heart, had no opinion on the itinerary for the day, (for once), so we trundled down to the concierge to find out the best way to go to the palace which lies about 15 miles outside of St. Petersburg.
Russian money is one of those currencies that make your head hurt to do the conversion rate. So, even though 10,000 rubles might only equal 15 cents, it still sounds like a lot. It was certainly enough to make the blood drain out of Mr. Big's face, I can tell you that. Off we tripped to check out the tour buses. Turned out, there was only one tour bus per day to the Summer Palace that conducted the tour in English, so we had four hours on our hands to kill before the tour left. Hello, shopping.
Funny story. One time, about a hundred years ago, Charming Daughter and I were in an antique store in Asheville, North Carolina and stumbled upon a set of Russian nesting dolls with all of the Russian leaders on them. I mean, the biggest one was Gorbachev, Breshnev was in there, and back through time through Stalin and, finally, the teeniest one was Lenin. Well, to find this set in North Carolina was just, um, shocking, really. Like, WHO IN GOD'S NAME, had this decorative item on their mantle? Ever since then, she and I have had an inside joke about "voold you laak zum Vruusian nestink dolls?" And then we crack up. Every time. I know, I know, inside jokes are so boring.
The next kiosk had something that we did buy, however. MRS. DOMESTIC SON, if Grand One is reading this, please make her stop! Grand One and Grand Two like to play chess. They are actually quite good. Right before my eyes was a wooden chess set wherein the chess pieces were Russia vs. America army people. The queens were carrying tiny briefcases with the word "bomb" written in Russian on them. (Why the American queen's suitcase had Russian writing on it is anybody's guess. Probably because the person who painted it did not speak English). OMG, I must own this so-not-politically-correct-memorabilia. So I do. Natch.
After negotiating with the vendor by using my FINGERS because she was pretending to speak zero English, I'm pretty sure I paid upwards of 6,000 US dollars for the chess set. It was either six thousand or six hundred or six. Pick one. Anyway, Domestic Son will have to hide it if he ever has any Eastern European friends over for coffee. It's that bad. I love it.
The four-hour train ride between the two cities is educational because you get to see the countryside, which was quite enlightening. Unlike my chess set, I'm going to try to be politically correct here. The villages in the Russian countryside are not quaint. The houses look to consist of tar paper and galvanized tin. In four hours, covering about 500 miles, I saw MAYBE eight paved roads. It looks to be a hardscrabble life out there in the country on dirt roads in depressing housing conditions. Hopefully, those conditions are on the rise for the Russian people. But only after they finish paying for the gilding on 782 more window frames at the Summer Palace.

CD: Trojan TJBDD294
Dubstrumentals gathers together three 1975 albums that were originally released in limited quantities: Kung Fu Meets The Dragon, Return Of The Wax, and Musical Bones. All three albums were largely instrumental in nature and were testament to the experimental nature of Scratch's work at the time. As with Trojan's Dub Triptych collection, it's nice to have these three albums together in one collection after years of poor quality releases. Depending on your musical tastes, you will either find the jazzy reggae of Musical Bones and minimalist reggae of Return Of The Wax quite intriguing or rather boring. The crazed and raucous Kung Fu Meets The Dragon, however, will leave no Scratch fan disappointed. The icing on the cake is the inclusion of two great bonus tracks, "Rasta Train" and "Ark Of The Rising Sun".

The member countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) are undergoing major change, and despite their many common features, there are also big differences between these countries as regards political, economic and social development.

Dakota Fanning's Doll Makeup & Curls On 'Glamour': Hot Or Not? Vote
The actress tries out a babydoll makeup look, complete with lush lashes and painted-on lipstick for her latest photoshoot. What do YOU think of her glamorous cover style? Vote below!
Dakota Fanning, 18, is usually known for her fresh-faced, minimalist makeup style, but she has gotten all dolled up for her March 2013 Glamour magazine cover shoot. Lush, babydoll eyelashes and high-drama red lipstick gives her a fresh new style!
Dakota Fanning On Beauty
Though the child star is attending college at NYU and is taking on more grown up film roles, Dakota is definitely hanging on to a youthful look for her Glamour cover. Her bright red, cropped Mickey Mouse sweater may look like a juvenile pick, but it's a cheeky Marc Jacobs piece. Red lacquered lipstick plays up her sparkling red ensemble, while fringe-y babydoll eyelashes emphasize Dakota's doe-eyed gaze.
Dakota's shoulder length springy curls are also a new look for her, and we're loving this voluminous style! Her sassy 'do is quite a departure from her signature stick straight strands.
In her interview, Dakota even addresses her thoughts on her 2011 Marc Jacobs fragrance ad, which was banned across the UK when concerns came up that it was inappropriately sexually provocative. Glamour asked if she was surprised when she learned about the controversy, to which Dakota answered, "Yeah, I was! If you want to read something into a perfume bottle, then I guess you can. But it's also like, Why are you making it about that, you creep? I love Marc and trust him, and we just laughed about it."
For more of Dakota's interview, check out Glamour's March 2013 issue, on newsstands February 5.
HollywoodLifers, do YOU love Dakota's doll faced cover look?

Louis CK was on Saturday Night Live last night and just as I expected, he killed it. Not literally killed it, but just say that in a teen girl's voice and know that it was great. I loved his monologue -- he takes everyday things and exposes the truth, sometimes the awful truth, and he makes it funny.
Part of us is laughing at his delivery. The other part is laughing at ourselves. At life. At messed up truths. What he had to say about wife beaters ... well, see for yourself.
He said how it was so okay to beat your wife until recently and yet we have a piece of clothing called a wife beater. Stop saying it like it's not horrible.
He's right.
He also talked about how he went out shopping for a white noise machine because it helps white people sleep at night, and how none of us should ever say we're hungry. If you ate today you shouldn't say you are hungry. That's first world hunger. First world hunger is wanting a donut. He said you never see a starving person say "I'm like literally starving to death." Say that in a teen girl's voice and it's funny. Bad funny. Mirror in your face and wow are we all messed up kind of funny.
Then he talked about his kids -- Louis CK talking about being a dad is my favorite. He prefers having girls over boys. Check out his reasoning why along with some other things he has to say about God and murder.
What did you think of Louis CK's monologue?
