Wood delighted by return to Trentonby Brian Compton
Bertoli's retirement ends an era
If the nickname change wasn't enough to assure the changing of the guard in Trenton hockey, this definitely will.
NHL.com has learned that Scott Bertoli, who played with the Trenton Titans from the franchise's inception in 1999 until this past season and its all-time leading scorer, is retiring.
Bertoli, 30, is coming off a career year with the Titans. Under first-year coach and former teammate Rick Kowalsky, Bertoli had 31 goals and 48 assists in 64 games. He added another five points in five postseason contests.
But life has changed for Bertoli, who was married this summer. The Princeton University graduate was recently named the Assistant Athletic Director at Princeton Day School, where he will once again coach the boy's hockey team. In the end, No. 19 – which hopefully will be raised to the rafters of Sovereign Bank Arena this season – was provided with an opportunity to take the next step in his life.
"I kind of went back and forth all summer," Bertoli said about playing this upcoming season. "I was passively looking for various job opportunities and was kind of reaching out to parents and friends in the area. This kind of just came up about a week and a half before my wedding, and it was perfect. It's a great opportunity. I've enjoyed coaching here, and there're a lot of great people here."
Over the course of eight seasons in Trenton, Bertoli appeared in 507 regular-season games, and another 67 postseason contests. Dubbed "The Franchise" several years ago, Bertoli is Trenton's all-time leading scorer with 182 goals and 344 assists. With his good friend Mike Haviland behind the bench, Bertoli and the Titans captured the franchise's lone Kelly Cup championship in 2005. Kowalsky was the captain of that memorable squad. During that magical playoff run, Bertoli tallied 24 points in 20 games.
"Nothing even comes close to that," Bertoli said. "Just the whole process … you always hear that the journey is greater than the destination. That whole process, going through those four rounds for those two and a half months with those guys was something I'll never forget. I don't think any one of those guys that were in that locker room will ever forget that. To finally win at the end was the icing on the cake and it was something you felt like needed to happen to top off a remarkable year."
Perhaps that's what made this decision so tough for Bertoli – the fact that he was personally coming off a remarkable year. In the end, though, the job at PDS outweighed the long bus rides through the night. After almost a month on the job, Bertoli is feeling better about his decision each day.
"It was an opportunity I couldn't pass up," Bertoli said. "I've been here for two and a half weeks, and I've enjoyed it and I've met a lot of good people. I've been given a lot of responsibility, and I've kind of relished that. I like the fact that I've got a set schedule and I've got weekends and holidays off. I don't have to travel on a bus from Toledo to Dayton in the middle of the night."
Kowalsky, who now must find a veteran that fits Bertoli's mold (good luck), was understanding of Bertoli's decision. The pair discussed Bertoli's future at the end of last season and kept in touch throughout the summer.
"Sometimes it's tough to leave the game, but does he need to wait until he's all banged up and has a career-ending injury, or a year when he scores 10 goals and the fans are on him?" said Kowalsky, who retired after winning the 2005 championship. "Why wait for that? I think he would have played or was seriously considering playing, but with the opportunity that presented itself, it was a good time for him to get out. I think he was ready to leave if the right situation away from hockey came up, and it did."
So, with Trenton switching its nickname from Titans to Devils this season, is it fitting that Bertoli is leaving the game with the same sweater he wore when he first entered the ECHL in 1999?
"In a certain way, he's irreplaceable," Kowalsky said. "But we knew it was a possibility, and we will move on. It's kind of ironic that he's retiring as a Titan and never gets to be a Devil. Maybe for some fans, it will put some closure on the whole Titans thing. He was 'Mr. Titan', so I guess it is fitting. It's a new chapter for hockey in Trenton."
"At the end of the day, I would have been playing for the same people, the same fans, the same building," Bertoli said. "It might have been a little weird the first couple of times putting the jersey on. But at the end of the day, it would have been for the same reasons."
As for regrets about his career, Bertoli did come up with a legitimate one -- the fact that he was basically ignored by AHL squads for the majority of his career. In eight professional seasons, Bertoli made just 13 appearances at the Triple-A level. Nine of those during the 2005-06 season, when Haviland brought him to Norfolk just one year after the pair won an ECHL title.
"I would have liked more opportunities to play in the American League," said Bertoli, who tallied five points in those nine games with Norfolk. "When Havie gave me that opportunity, I think, more than anything, I proved to myself that I could have played at that level for an extended period of time. For whatever reasons, it didn't work out. But I think I could have played there and been successful there."
But not a single person could argue with the success Bertoli experienced in New Jersey's capital city. He was a leader on the ice and in the locker room. He was a captain. He was a voice of reason. He was loved by both his teammates and the fans. All the above reasons and more are why his No. 19 should never be worn in Trenton again.
"That's something that they'll talk about or we'll talk about for the upcoming season," Kowalsky said. "Obviously, you'd like to honor him because he's been here since Day One. I'm sure that will be something that will be discussed."
"I don't know what's going to happen with the new ownership, but that stuff doesn't really motivate me," Bertoli said. "It's nice, but I played for my teammates and the fans. I don't know. Whatever they decide to do, if they decide to do anything at all, obviously I'll be very grateful for that."
-- Brian Compton
After two solid years in Trenton, Stephen Wood was ready to make more of a full-time move to the American Hockey League.
The 26-year-old defenseman, who won a championship with the Titans in his rookie season back in 2005, nearly returned to New Jersey's capital city for a third season in 2006. But when the AHL's Peoria Rivermen presented that elusive opportunity, Wood signed on with the hopes he'd land at the Triple-A level permanently.
Things didn't quite work out in Peoria, as Wood notched two assists in only 16 games. He spent a large chunk of the season with the Alaska Aces (8-16-14 in 25 regular-season games) and also saw some time with AHL Bridgeport. In the end, Wood spent more time at baggage claim than he did on the power play. He admitted the constant movement affected his play.
"It's hard to settle in and it's hard to just create that consistency that a player wants," Wood said. "I never really had that consistency with the way my contract was. I kind of took a risk on playing in Peoria, because if I do get sent down I'm heading to Alaska. It was a tough year. I know I can play at the AHL level. I think it affected my decision on where I wanted to be the next year. I don't want to be jumping around the United States like I did this year."
Not long after his season ended, Wood called a former teammate. He asked Trenton Devils head coach Rick Kowalsky if he needed a defenseman. Kowalsky was thrilled and quickly contacted his bosses up the New Jersey Turnpike. After a discussion with Kowalsky and Lowell Devils GM Chris Lamoriello, it was determined that not only will Wood bolster Trenton's blue line, but the Cambridge, Mass., native will participate at Lowell's training camp.
"I called him pretty early after the season," Wood said of Kowalsky. "I talk to him every now and then just to say hello. I wanted to tell him that if I do play in the ECHL, I want to play in Trenton. He said; 'That's great. We want you here.' We just kind of went from there and talked a few times over the summer."
Now, should Wood get the chance to play at the AHL level, he can do so in front of family and friends. Wood's biggest opportunity to play in the AHL came during the 2005-06 campaign, when he went 2-9-11 in 28 games for the Philadelphia Phantoms. His background was enough to convince Devils management to bring Wood on board. Kowalsky fully expects the solid two-way defenseman to see some time in the AHL this season.
"There's interest from Lowell's standpoint," said Kowalsky, who captained that 2005 Trenton squad to the Kelly Cup. "He's definitely going to get good look up there. It's going to be up to him. There's no question he's going to be my top defenseman down here. If he plays well and takes advantage of his opportunities, he's going to get a chance."
Even if Wood does spend a large portion of this season in the ECHL, it's still going to be an important year for him. When he is in Trenton, Wood will be asked not only to make a dent on the stat sheet, but in the locker room, too. It will be a new challenge, but one Kowalsky expects Wood will be able to handle.
"This could be a breakthrough year for him," Kowalsky said. "I'm going to rely on him from a leadership standpoint because we're going to be young. I don't know if he's ever been put in that position, but I think he will be this year."
One has to believe that Wood learned some of the traits it takes to be a leader simply by playing the 2004-05 season alongside Kowalsky. But Kowalsky won't be the only familiar face behind the bench in Trenton. Vince Williams, who was one of Wood's defense partners during that magical season, is returning for a second season as Trenton's assistant coach. Between the friends he'll rejoin in Trenton and the chance to play in his home state, Wood has plenty of reasons to smile from ear to ear.
"Killer was almost a third coach as a captain and an older guy," Wood said. "I think it'll be a little weirder with 'Vinny Dubs' behind me. (But) I'm excited. I'm going to camp with Lowell and I grew up from Massachusetts, so to have a chance to play there at some point during the year, it's exciting. I had two great years in Trenton, so it'll be exciting to get back into the swing of things there."
And when he does, he will bring with him that experience of winning a championship. Come playoff time, Kowalsky will be soothed by the fact that his top defenseman has been through the trenches before.
"That just gives you that experience in the room," Kowalsky said. "You can't put a price on that, especially with a young team."
Around the ECHL -- Alaska signed veteran center Kimbi Daniels. … Rookie center Drew Davis has been invited to Victoria's training camp. The Salmon Kings also signed rookie center Martin Thibeault and veteran forward Robin Gomez. … Pensacola has hired Chad Weprin to be the team's athletic trainer and strength and conditioning coach. … South Carolina signed rookie forward Bryan Esner. … Left wing Adam Huxler re-signed with the Stockton Thunder. He finished fourth in the league with 241 penalty minutes last season. … The Florida Everblades announced they will retire the numbers worn by Reggie Berg (10) and Tom Buckley (14) prior to the season opener against Mississippi on Oct. 19. … Speaking of Mississippi, the Sea Wolves inked rookie defenseman Pat Oliveto and forward Justin Cross. … Fresno agreed to terms with rookie left wings Hunter Tremblay and Daniel Torres. The latter is the younger brother of Edmonton Oilers power forward Raffi Torres. … Dayton signed rookie defenseman Tom Sawatske.

This Koffing is a poison-type Pokémon owned by Roxie.
Roxie caught Koffing while on tour in Kanto.[1]
Roxie used Koffing in the Gym match against Ash, who sent Boldore. Boldore started out with Sandstorm, though Koffing easily negated the move with Clear Smog, even its Rock Blast was negated by Koffing's Gyro Ball. Koffing attacked Boldore with Sludge Bomb, though Boldore countered the attack with Flash Cannon. Koffing repeated its Gyro Ball and Boldore tried to slow it down with Sandstorm. However, Boldore failed and got defeated. Ash called Boldore back and sent Unfezant, who started off with Quick Attack. Koffing tried to apply a burn to Unfezant with a Will-O-Wisp, but Unfezant gusted away the attack. Unfezant missed Koffing with Air Cutter and got poisoned by its Sludge Bomb. Koffing spread the smoke using Clear Smog. Unfezant used Aerial Ace, but the move was blocked by Koffing's Gyro Ball and Unfezant herself was defeated. Ash sent Leavanny, surprising Roxie, since Leavanny was vulnerable to poison. Leavanny hit Koffing with Energy Ball and stopped its Gyro Ball with String Shot. Koffing tried to hit Leavanny with Sludge Bomb, but was spinned around and was defeated by Leavanny's Energy Ball.[1]

There was a time when things were different.
You did more than like my post…
like that one time the other day.
You used to be different.
You used to wait for me to finish work,
we'd talk about our day.
You'd tell me about all the girls you met
and I pretended it was okay.
We'd meet for drinks
at your convenience and
it would always be late.
I never minded to your face.
I'd smile and nod at your sudden insights.
Stroking your genius because I liked you enough to listen
and no one else did.
I doubt you noticed.
We'd talk for hours laying perfect plans
of course, we never actually followed them.
but we'd dream into our beers
that, naturally, I paid for-
I put you on your very own pedestal!
I hung a banner above you!
I sang your praise and
ordered fireworks in your honor!
But you never noticed them.
They were not in your vision.
Your mirror was only big enough for you.
And it's my fault I never noticed.

French ex-PM Rocard, pro-EU but an early backer of Brexit, dies
By By Sybille de La Hamaide and Leigh Thomas
Published : July 03, 2016
By Sybille de La Hamaide and Leigh Thomas
PARIS (Reuters) - Former French Socialist Prime Minister Michel Rocard, who two years ago urged Britons to leave the European Union before they destroyed it, died on Saturday at the age of 85, nine days after Britain voted to follow his advice.
Rocard, a Socialist who served as prime minister under President Francois Mitterrand from 1988 to 1991, became an ardent European federalist, spending 15 years in the European Parliament until he resigned in 2009.
In 2014 he wrote a bitter criticism of Britain's role in the EU bloc - an article that resonates strongly after Britons voted 52 percent to 48 percent to leave the EU in a referendum on June 23.
"Get out of Europe before you wreck it," Rocard wrote then in the headline of an opinion piece published by Britain's Guardian newspaper and France's Le Monde.
"You do not like Europe," he told Britons, blaming them for Europe's failures and accusing them of selfishness and an obsession with trade over the project for political unity.
"You never shared the true meaning of the project... always putting the national interest first - you reintroduced these ideas and made them contagious," he wrote.
"A great figure of the Republic and the Left has just disappeared," President Francois Hollande said in a statement.
Among Rocard's achievements were the creation of a minimum welfare benefit in France and reform of the financing of the welfare system.
He lived a political life in the shadow of Mitterrand, the Socialist President of France from 1981 to 1995, but nevertheless helped lead France's Marxist-rooted Socialists toward market-friendly social democracy.
Admired on the Left and the Right as one of the brightest politicians of his generation, Rocard was co-founder in 1960 of the Unified Socialist Party (PSU), a leftist group that played a role in the May 1968 student-worker uprising. He ran for president in 1969 but won just 3.6 percent of the vote.
After that he gradually moved to the centre-left in the 1970s and joined the Socialist party in 1974 after Mitterrand reunited it.
But he later fell out with his mentor, and their enmity dogged his long career. Mitterrand fired the popular premier after the Gulf War and kept a lid on his career after that.
In later life, Rocard was a staunch supporter of Hollande who is struggling with record low poll ratings and a deeply divided party.
"Francois Hollande has never run away from intelligent people who could overshadow him. That's the difference. That's the way to be governed," he told Reuters in an interview in February this year.

A lesson in positive thinking?
You know how, when you're working on a regular schedule like 9 to 5, you just go through your day out of habit? You do things mechanically and think things mechanically because it just takes too much energy to do anything else (for reasons I would rather not explore here) . Anyway, that's been me for the last little while. The routine finally sucked me in.
What makes this worse, is that I take a lot of transit every day - suburban buses, commuter trains, city buses, street cars, and subways. And yo, there are a lot of people on transit. And lately I find myself feeling more and more bitter and thinking more mean thoughts about the people I encounter, because they are not as polite or as considerate as I try to be or as I think they should be. And this bitter mean streak has become part of my routine.
Take the other day: I was with some family at a giant wrestling meet in a giant high school gym. It was pretty crowded and the spaces for walking from the door to your seat were narrow (notice the photo here, taken by me from atop the bleachers). A couple of times people got pushy, and I gave 'em a dirty look and pushed right back. I think giving the dirty look was crossing the line.
This morning, I decided that I need to find a way to expect politeness and consideration from people around me (and be polite and considerate myself, naturally) without really expecting it, because it's making me mean.
But I'm still allowed to be sick of public transit. I just have to keep using it and smile. That's my nugget of wisdom for today.

Ten writers and athletes contribute sports stories written exclusively for this volume.
The third installment in Scieszka's Guys Read Library of Great Reading again seeks to lure young male readers into the world of books. Following Funny Business (2010) and Thriller (2011), The Sports Pages offers a smorgasbord of sportswriting—fiction and nonfiction—to appeal to every sports enthusiast. From baseball to football, ice hockey to track and mixed martial arts, there is plenty here for sports-minded readers to like, with lively action, humor and even a dose of mysticism in the form of magical grapefruit and a witch doctor. James Brown's "The Choice" and Dustin Brown's "Against All Odds" are fine nonfiction entries, akin to the motivational talks athletes often present at sports banquets. Tim Green's "Find Your Fire" has the liveliest sports action, featuring a young offensive lineman learning to deal with changes in his life. Maximilian Funk, in Anne Ursu's "Max Swings for the Fences," tries to fit into the social scene of his new school and chooses the wrong way, with disastrous consequences. (Chris Crutcher's "The Meat Grinder" is slated for inclusion but was not seen.)
The stories here offer action, humor and lessons about life and may well do the trick of connecting boys and books. (Short stories. 9-13)

SOUSA, Paulo Rogério Costa de y PEREIRA, Leonardo Oliveira. Dynesys system of dynamic fixation for the lumbar spine: clinical experience in 30 patients in an average period of 1 year. Coluna/Columna [online]. 2012, vol.11, n.1, pp.21-23. ISSN 1808-1851. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1808-18512012000100003.
OBJECTIVE: Using a new concept of dynamic stability instead of conventional fusion, in order to reproduce the results so far achieved by several services in Brazil and worldwide. METHODS: We evaluated 30 patients undergoing dynamic fixation of the lumbar spine. Nineteen were men and 11 women with a mean age of 40.11 years (22-56), nine of them needed two adjacent levels of stabilization (L4-L5 and L5-S1). The diseases being treated were disc protrusion in 8 cases, discopathy in 16 cases and degenerative spinal stenosis in 6 cases. Follow-up was done on an outpatient basis, ranging from 8 to 13 months, with an average of 12.3, using clinical parameters, analogue pain scale and Oswestry, and ratings given by patients for satisfaction with the procedure, improvement of quality of life and return to work activities. RESULTS: The percentage of patients who achieved full return to work activities was 76.6% (21 patients) in the first three months, the others had returned to work until the middle of the fifth month. There was significant improvement in low back pain demonstrated by the decrease of VAS (Preoperative: 8.6 and 12 months; postoperative: 1.8). Regarding quality of life there was significant improvement observed by the reduced scoreof Oswestry (preoperative: 68,6 e 12 months; postoperative: 22.5). All patients returned to work after six months postoperatively. CONCLUSION: Based on the results, the dynamic system has proven to be effective in the treatment of diseases to which it is intended.

- Im pms'ing and want chocolate BADLY and looked at recipes for desserts all day trying to figure out something for that party but did NOT give in. Even when my family was roasting marshmellows in the bonfire tonight!
- Went out to lunch with a friend - looked at the menu online before hand and stuck with my plain garden salad with salmon and oil and vinegar. No not crazy tasty but did the job.
- Wanted to eat just to eat... told myself to suck it up and get over it. Drink a glass of water and move on.
I did my cross fit workout for the day -
15 lunges holding 2 10lb barbells
60 times with jump rope
repeat 5 times total.
Dinner was done. We headed out for a family bonfire. Got the kids cleaned up and in bed. And I thought to myself - wow it feels so nice outside, you have energy ... go for a run. So off I went into the dark for a 3 mile run around the neighborhood. Felt great.
That is where the aha moment came from. I have taken to listening to podcast during runs. I was listening to Jillian Michaels. They were talking about reinforcement, self talk ect.
They discussed an analogy where a kid finishes a math test and the teacher says "Bobby you did so well, you are amazing at math. Would you like to take another harder test" The boy says NO. (he is told he is really good at something and being faced with something harder might make him fail and then he wouldnt be super good at it anymore). Another kid finishes a math test the teacher says to him "wow bobby I am so impressed with how hard you worked and the attention you gave it, would you like to take another harder test". The kids says yes (he has been rewarded for his hard work and is willing to keep working hard and trying).
What does this mean to me??? The months before I got pregnant with Bre I was at my lowest weight ever. I felt amazing. I thought I looked amazing. People told me all the time that I looked awesome or I did a great job losing weight. It was always the final product - not the process of getting there that was praised. I started stressing out and when I started to slide into bad habits I felt like I was letting all of those other people down too. I wasnt the success story anymore.
When what I should have been thinking was - wow I worked really hard and sacrificed alot to get where I was. I put in the time and the work and it was that work that was awesome - not just the final product.
Does that make sense to anyone besides in my head?

Barack Obama Sings Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen
Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" is possibly 2012's most inescapable smash hit – even President Obama isn't safe from its clutches. In this video, Fadi Saleh, a.k.a. Barackdubs, mashes up the track with voice clips taken from various speeches, creating the illusion of the Commander in Chief singing along to the song. Saleh's meticulous mixing is impressive, with each word individually cut to match the instrumental, creating an outlandish and charming version of an already endearing track.

Lloyd Alexander
Lloyd Alexander, author of the Chronicles of Prydain (Taran the Pigkeeper) along with many other works, has passed away at age 83.
'The Black Cauldron' was my first introduction to the world of 'fantasy' as a child. (My mother was horrified that I was past the realm of Anne of Green Gables, and thought it was all crap.) I would voraciously shop our small town second-hand bookstore for anything fantasy, and it's still my favourite genre to this day.
I give a moment of remembrance to a writer who touched the lives of many.

Elizabeth Simpson Pepper
Elizabeth Simpson was the wife of Afro Albanian laborer William Pepper. She probably was born during the 1760s or 70s. We seek information on her origins and path to Albany.
Four of their children were christened at the Albany Dutch church between 1795 and 1801.
In 1790, she probably was the other "free person of color" accounted for within Pepper's Watervliet home. By 1800, the Pepper household was enumerated in Albany's second ward and housed four free people of color.
"Eliz. Simpson" was buried from the Dutch church in September 1802. She probably had not lived fifty-years. William Pepper survived until at least 1817.
Sources: The life of Elizabeth Simpson Pepper has not been assigned a CAP biography number. This sketch is derived chiefly from family and community-based resources. We have not connected this individual to Elizabeth Simpson, the wife of James Livingston, an emigre´ who died in 1799.

Efforts to negotiate a truce between Israel and the Islamic militant group Hamas in the Gaza Strip have hit a snag. As Robert Berger reports from VOA's Jerusalem bureau, a deadly Palestinian attack has reinforced Israeli concerns.
Israel has rejected a Hamas proposal for a six-month ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. The proposal, drafted under Egyptian mediation, calls for Hamas to end rocket and other cross-border attacks and for Israel to lift its crippling blockade on Gaza.
Israel dismissed the truce offer hours after a Palestinian militant armed with a pistol entered an Israeli industrial zone on the border with the West Bank and killed two Israeli security guards. Hamas and the Islamic Jihad group claimed joint responsibility for the attack.
"Israel is interested in peace," said Israeli spokesman David Baker. "We feel Hamas is not serious. Hamas is trying to buy time in order to rearm and regroup and get ready for its next offense against Israel. Israel will continue to take the necessary steps to protect its people."
Hamas brushed off Israel's rejection of the truce, saying Egyptian intelligence chief Omar Suleiman would visit Jerusalem next week to try and get the Israelis on board.
Hamas official Mahmoud al-Zahar told reporters in Gaza that a ceasefire is within reach and the ball is now in Israel's court. He said the goal of the truce is to end Israel's blockade on Gaza, but he warned that Hamas has other options for breaking the siege. He did not elaborate, but this month, Hamas has carried out a wave of attacks on Israeli border crossings.
On Friday, thousands of Palestinians protested near the Israeli border with Gaza, demanding an end to the blockade.

'Time over for PML-N, Kaptaan – PPP will now come to power': Zardari
PESHAWAR: Co-chairman Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Asif Ali Zardari has pledged to revive the party at each union council level of the country with an aim to make a 'big impact' in the next general elections.
Zardari said the 'show of PML-N and Kaptaan' has ended, it's now time of the PPP to return [to power], he added.
Addressing a Fata Convention here, Zardari claimed that his party neither ran any campaign ahead of the 2013 elections nor conducted any rally.
"This time Bilawal, Aseefa and everyone will be on the ground," he maintained.
He urged masses not to pin any hope to the incumbent government. "They can never solve your problem," he insisted.
He also announced to open PPP secretariat in Federally Administered Tribal Areas.
He said the PPP wanted Fata merger with Khyber Pakhtonkhwa, calling the step as 'need of the hour'.

In the world of theatre, many people say, "good performances come with a lot of luck." One of the eternal quests for us performers is, how do we acquire such luck? Now this question has been considered and answered by hundreds of thousands of people. Just a few rituals that hopefully bring good luck and fortune/some theatre musts are:
1: NEVER say "Good luck," for fear the opposite might happen. You say "break a leg" or "have a good show!"
8: Pinching an actor/actress before an entrance brings them good luck. Not only will they be alert but probably bruised as well.
10: A rubber chicken backstage keeps the cast and crew on track. This is a relatively new ritual that started with the Orpheum Theatre stagehands.
11: Never say, "Macbeth" while you are anywhere near the theatre for fear you will awaken the ghost and set a dreadful curse upon the theatre. Instead, ALL stage personnel should refer to it as "The Scottish Play." Some don't believe in this superstition but many take it quite seriously.
13: Candles are an instant omen of bad luck.
Some unlucky objects to have in a theatre are:
1: Peacock feathers. The "eye" of the feather is associated with the "Evil Eye" so peacock feathers are said to summon evil.
2: Real jewels/real antiques. These things are said to be bad luck mostly because of the fact that fake ones look better and more extravagant than real ones from the audience, and are not as valuable if damaged.
3: Real food. Real food is said to cause disasters on the stage and not only that, it can be difficult to work with. Many people have found that Twinkies are a great substitution for many foods.
4: Real flowers. Real flowers require water and if a vase was to be spilled on stage, there is a risk of slipping and plus, there is a mess on the stage. There once was an actress who slipped on a petal, fell and broke her leg on stage.
5: Real bibles. It is said to be unlucky and disrespectful to use a real bible on stage. A similar-looking book is to be used instead.
6: A yellow clarinet in the orchestra is instant misfortune.
Well there you have some of your classic superstitions. Check out the video below for a little more info.

Maple Syrup (Buenos Aires)
Hi everyone,
I am from Canada and wanted to send good quality Canadian maple syrup to colleagues of mine who work in Buenos Aires to realize that the custom fees were prohibitive! Would someone know if Canadian maple syrup is already available in a store in Buenos Aires so that I could ask someone to purchase it for me. Thank you in advance for what I thought would be a simple way to thank my colleagues but has become a challenging task!

DDT is a debugger for C, C++ and Fortran 90 threaded and parallel codes.
DDT's GUI runs on Bridges. To use it, you must first install and configure the Allinea DDT client on your local machine. Once the client is installed and configured, you can run DDT on Bridges.
No matter which compiler you use, you must compile your code with the -g option to produce debug information.
Usage on Bridges
Install and configure the Allinea DDT client
- Download the appropriate client for your local machine from http://www.allinea.com/developer-tools/debug-allinea-ddt/download#remote-client.
- Run the installer. When it completes successfully, start up the Allinea DDT client on your local machine.
- Under Options, from the Remote Launch drop-down menu select Configure.
A Configure Remote Connections window opens.
- Choose Add.
A Remote Launch Settings window will open.
- Enter these settings:
- For Host Name: email@example.com
- For Remote Installation Directory:
- For DDT version 7.0, enter /opt/packages/allinea-7.0/forge
- For DDT version 6.0.2, enter /opt/packages/allinea/forge
Click OK. The Remote Launch Settings window will close.
- In the Configure Remote Connections window, click Close.
The Remote Launch drop-down menu will now have a connection named email@example.com.
Configure your Bridges environment
You must have the DDT module loaded for you automatically on login. Otherwise, the Allinea client will fail.
To do this, edit your .bashrc file (if you use bash) or your .cshrc file (if you use csh) and add this line:
module load ddt
This will load the default DDT module. You can see all versions of DDT available by typing
module avail ddt
See more on modules for information on loading non-default versions of DDT.
Running DDT on Bridges
When you have the Allinea DDT client installed and configured on your local machine, and have set configured your Bridges environment to load the DDT module for you automatically, follow these steps to run DDT on Bridges:
- Open a connection from your Allinea DDT client to Bridges
Start the Allinea DDT client on your local machine.
- From the remote Launch drop-down, select the connection for firstname.lastname@example.com. A Connect to Remote Host window will open.
- Enter your PSC password when prompted.
The Connect to Remote Host window will close. If the connection is successful, you will see "Licence Serial: 10028" in the lower left of the Allinea DDT client window, meaning it found the license and is talking to the server on Bridges.
- Run and debug your executable.
- Click on RUN to run and debug your program. A window labeled "Run (queue submission mode)" pops up.
- Enter the path to your executable in the Application input field. Note that it must already be compiled; DDT will not compile it for you.
DDT should automatically detect if you are using MPI, OpenMP, CUDA, and fill in some details for you.
- Set the queue parameters.
Click Submit to queue.
The first time you use Allinea DDT, you must configure the queue submissions.
- Click Configure, and in the Job Submission Settings window that opens click on the file folder icon in the template file input field.
In the Choose Queue Template File window that opens, choose the template file 'slurm.qtf'. Click Open and the Choose Queue Template window closes; click OK in the Job Submission Settings window and it will close.
- Click Parameters and set the queue name to be one of RM, LM or GPU. You can also change the clock time limit if you choose.
You can change the queue configuration for any subsequent job.
- Click Configure, and in the Job Submission Settings window that opens click on the file folder icon in the template file input field.
- Click Submit in the Run (queue submission mode) window.
A debugging window will open. If there are not enough resources available to run your job, a window showing the partition and your job in it will open. Once your job begins, you can debug your program.

This is a terrific move, and it's something that I've been hoping for. The internet age calls for an update of FDR's old Fireside Chats. Why do we still have these radio addresses? It seems like a relic of a bygone era. The internet allows us to bring this tradition back to our time, and Obama is just the President to do it.

Hey Michael,
There seems to be a recent problem with the Phoronix main site and adblock plus. I don't think it is version specific, because it just started a day or two ago. Have you made any odd changes to the site? When I turn adblock off, the site works normally. When turned on, the site has only text, and appears to have time warped in from 1996.
Kyle B
edit: I just booted into windows, and it looks like its working with adblock edge, i haven't tried adblock plus yet. Is it possible that there is a linux mozilla bug?

When his mentor is stabbed to death outside his New York City office, an old-school bodyguard investigates the roots of the hip-hop community's predilection for violence.
Some authors know their territory all too well. This might be the case with music critic George (Thriller, 2010, etc.), who mines the hip-hop community for a noir novel that serves equally well as time capsule. It starts with a bang as bodyguard D Hunter protects a rap star at a fundraiser before returning to his office to witness a murder. There, D finds his mentor, journalist Dwayne Robinson, slumped at his door with fatal stab wounds, muttering, "Remix. It's all a remix…Biggie was right….It was all a dream." While D is no Easy Rawlins, George has done the work to flesh out his uneasy detective into a credible character. D is a hard man among the trigger-happy stars of the hip-hop universe, but his fearsome appearance is softened by his underlying terror at being HIV-positive. Doing his violent digging, D discovers that Robinson was a contributor to a marketing memorandum on how not only to cash in on hip-hop culture, but how to control it for profit and cultural sabotage. "So it didn't take much skullduggery to control hip hop," D discovers in a lost notebook. "It was just a matter of helping the most volatile people in on the game rise to positions of prominence. Eventually they'd sabotage themselves and, in so doing, bring down scores of others." George is an ace at interlacing the real dramas of the world—the crack epidemic and the government's part in it, not to mention the pivotal murders of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. But the book's slim length and flyweight depth could make it an artifact of this particular zeitgeist in American history.
Playas and haters and celebrity cameos fuel a novel that is wickedly entertaining while being frozen in time.

Hiring a car in Corsica
There are a number of pitfalls when hiring a car in our favourite island, and it's worth listing them here. First of all, avoid booking the hire car as you arrive at the airport or ferry terminal. If you do that, the car big hire cos at the airports (Europcar, Hertz, Sixt, Budget or National) will charge you their book rates, and as always, this will be more expensive than booking it in advance online (see links above). The other pitfall to avoid is encountered when booking your car in France or Italy, then taking it by ferry to Corsica: in some companies' small print, travel to Corsica is specifically prohibited, and you may well invalidate your insurance by doing so. Not such a good idea...
So the best scheme is to book your car online before you go, using one of the operators listed in the first paragraph. They work by booking your vehicle through a large company like Hertz or Europcar and you will collect your car from one of them. How do they provide the cars so cheaply? I'm not sure - maybe someone will let me know!

Christmas in Corsica
One of the questions that summer visitors ask about
If you are lucky enough to be in
So what do Corsican people eat at Christmas? For a traditional Christmas Day or Christmas Eve meal, you may be served a young goat rather than turkey. Blackbird pate and beignets de brocciu could also find their way onto your plate.
The older, darker Christmas traditions are even more interesting. The people of L'Ile Rousse in the Balagne (and other villages) hold a bonfire in the square and let it burn till midnight mass begins. A local tells us "In the old days people brought sausages, figatelli and polenta and shared a meal around the bonfire".
And there's a Christmas prayer - l'occhio - to ward off the evil eye: the old people used to teach their youngsters this prayer, but only on Christmas Eve. It was considered very bad luck to repeat the prayer or teach it to someone at any other time. So we won't be repeating it here…Happy Christmas everyone!

BA cuts back its flights to Bastia
After running a Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday flight during peak months last year, we appear to be back to Sunday only flights. While I'm delighted that GB Airways continue to offer the Sunday service, I'm disappointed that it's no longer possible to go there direct at other times in the week.
It used to be possible to fantasise about grabbing a long weekend in Calvi - going out on Thursday and coming back on Sunday. Maybe I should have done it while it was possible, 'cos it ain't going to be possible next year.
I have tried to contact both British Airways and GB Airways about the change of policy but have not yet had a reply. So it's left to me to surmise why. My guess is that the arrival of new Thomsonfly flights have upped the ante and the BA gang have made a tactical withdrawal. As a result, we Brits are now back to being the people who go to Corsica on Sunday - even though most holiday accommodations have their changeover days on Saturdays.

Slow on the uptake of the most recent fabric diaper trend.
I have to confess … for everything else I do that is natural and also organic, I was late jumping on the cloth diapering bandwagon … and I'm kicking myself for it currently.
For our first 2 kids, I utilized disposables as well as didn't think anything of it. I thought cloth diapering was a thing that our mothers and also grannies did due to the fact that they didn't have a selection, as well as the scary stories of wringing out baby diapers in the bathroom and endless lots of washing had no interest me!
A couple of years and also numerous of kids later, I made a decision to take another look at the diapering topic, at the tip of some friends (thanks girls!).
After welcoming cloth I promptly learnt that:
There are currently FAR BETTER options for fabric diapering compared to when our mothers as well as grannies were doing it
There are a Great Deal Of chemicals in standard diapers (you think that magic gel things that soaks up 100 times its weight in pee is natural?).
Fabric diapers (also the first-rate ones) save cash, especially if you have more than one youngster.
Cloth diapering could actually be easy!
The brand-new fabric diapers are CUTE!
They actually leak a lot less compared to disposables. I've just had a couple of leakages in the 7 months I've been cloth diapering our youngest, and no outfits messed up by yellow infant poop!
There are a great deal of brands of diapers that can fit baby from birth to potty training, so it conserves room also!
They hold their value, so you can offer them to someone else when your youngsters run out baby diapers, if you take good treatment of them.
Rather reluctantly, I determined to try fabric diapering as well as quickly located that I LIKE it!
I'm absolutely not a professional (though possibly a few of my good friends who are veterans will certainly use some recommendations in the comments area) however I've discovered a few tips that have assisted along the road. If you haven't thought about towel diapering, I 'd definitely advise looking into it!
The Advantages of Fabric Diapering.
From an economic perspective, I've reviewed that each child sets you back regarding $2,000 to baby diaper and also can add about 600,000 baby diapers to the land fills. You could obtain a pair dozen actually premium quality (also organic) fabric baby diapers for under $500 and they can last through a number of children if you care for them.
If cash is truly limited, it is also possible to totally fabric diaper from birth to potty training for around $100 (some people invest that a month for disposables!).
No Diaper breakout with towel.
One more big benefit that I've seen is that my children who I have actually cloth diapered have gotten NO baby diaper breakouts, which despite an excellent diet plan, were a routine point with disposables. With my initial infant, I located within a week that Huggies baby diapers created an awful rash, as well as many common brand names did too. Pampers were ok, but of course, a lot more expensive.
One downside is that you can not make use of diaper cream (unless you make it yourself) with cloth baby diapers, but I haven't required it!
For my 7 month old, I could put dual linings in her baby diaper and she can go all night without it dripping and also without it irritating her skin …
An additional advantage is that youngsters commonly potty train previously in cloth diapers because (a) they are much more aware of the dampness and link the feeling quicker as well as (b) mommy burns out of rinsing the baby diapers as well as is extra motivated to potty train (cough …).
For all the benefits, the something that really persuaded me to towel diaper, was this …
needs to cloth diaper See, as much as I comprehended the advantages and how much healthier cloth baby diaper are, I knew that concerning the time that the poop actually began to get awful as well as had to be washed out in the commode, I 'd probably be expectant.
And morning health issues integrated with sticking my hands in the bathroom to wring out baby diaper … not taking place.
Video: Cloth diaper in Landis
This baby diaper sprayer is just what in fact convinced me to fabric diaper.
Essentially, it is a sprayer that linkeds into the clean supply of water on your toilet (before it enters into the bathroom) and makes use of a high powered stream of water to clean the baby diaper without you touching any type of poop.
I additionally found out that if you are exclusively nursing, you don't even need to wash out the baby diapers (even poop!) in any way up until you start offering baby solids.
The biggest benefit, in my point of view, is that you are decreasing infant's exposure to chemicals. Disposables are plastic and also contain chlorine, polyacrylate, and other chemicals that haven't been verified risk-free for use on any individual, especially children!
There is likewise a growing activity back to towel diapering as well as a lots of assistance. If you don't have local friends that are cloth diapering as well as can lend support like I do, there are online assistance neighborhoods like Diaper Pin as well as others, where you could find reviews, washing help, special offers, or even individuals marketing their delicately used cloth baby diapers.
My Diapering Setup.
There are as several ways to cloth diaper as there are types of cloth diapers.
We have a mix of BumGenius, Fuzzibunz and GroBabys (typically aren't those names adorable too?). I enjoy the simpleness of the GroBabys yet they leak a lot much more. Over all, I prefer the BumGenius and Fuzzibunz, and also have about 2 loads, which suffices for 2 youngsters if I wash every other day (which i very suggest!).
I use a plain plastic trash can for the wet/dirty baby diapers. In some cases I make use of an old pillowcase as a liner (it obtains cleaned with the baby diapers) and sometimes I just placed them straight in.
I don't cover the trash can, or place any kind of sort of fluid in it, though many people have special covers or a fluid approach. I've never ever had much difficulty with odor in this manner, yet it certainly is a matter or personal taste.
I utilize homemade non reusable wipes (leave out the almond/olive oil) or use my homemade wipe solution on fabric infant wipes (infant wash towels work wonderful as well as you can generally discover them at garage or consignment sales).
To wash: I use a 1/2 cup cooking soft drink in a chilly pre-wash cycle that I let soak for 30 minutes. I then utilize an all-natural detergent like Rockin Eco-friendly or Charlie's soap, or my own soap (alternative) to clean. Periodically, I make use of Dr. Bronners Sal Suds to strip the baby diapers.
Commonly, I run an additional cool rinse cycle at the end to earn certain all the detergent is out.
I run the liners through the clothes dryer and also hang the covers (exterior in the summertime, inside in the winter season) to prolong the life of the flexible.
For spots, the sunlight (summer particularly) is wonderful at whitening! As quickly as our pet dog isn't fairly so much of a teething puppy, I'll be hanging them outside once more.
After that, I just save the diapers in my little wood crate (see over) and make use of like normal baby diapers. They work much like disposables, as well as are so much cuter! There are also artist collection "designer" diapers as well as some are on sale now.
Various other Notes.
Find out just what diapering system helps you.
If you are considering fabric diapering, I 'd urge you to do your personal research and figure out what sort of baby diapers function best for your family members.
I have a couple loads that are mainly bumGenius as well as some Fuzzibunz (as well as a couple of Grobabys, which are now GroVias). You could purchase them by the lots and also save a lot of loan. You can even discover natural all in-one baby diapers which are incredibly easy to use and also clean, as well as which will certainly fit baby from birth to potty training!
I additionally actually very suggest a diaper sprayer considering that it will certainly save you time as well as gross aspect!
Some diapers also have flushable liners, so you can just discard them in the commode and also they prepare to clean.
If you have not taken into consideration fabric diapering, please at least explore it. It's so much far better for infant's skin and also isn't truly much added help you. I'm still new at it as well, but we could discover with each other.

Saleen 435S Mustang - Click above for a high-res image gallery
It's been an up and down week for Saleen Performance Vehicles, the newly formed company owned by MJ Acquisitions. Just last week Saleen just launched the 435S, their first model based on the 2010 Mustang, but only days before they were slapped with a lawsuit filed by Steve Saleen demanding that they stop using the Saleen name.
While Mr. Saleen claims the lawsuit was filed to "protect the name, reputation and brand value of Steve Saleen", Saleen Performance Vehicles claim they have every right to use the name after purchasing assets from Saleen, Inc. including the "Saleen brand for superchargers, aftermarket parts and high performance vehicles." Despite the lawsuit, SPV plans to continue developing its lineup of performance Mustangs, and should launch a second vehicle some time in the fall.
As for the lack of warranties for vehicles and parts sold before February of 2009 created by the sale of assets, SPV states that they are "working to resolve past warranty issues and have every intention of going forward with a warranty policy that will provide confidence to all our valued stakeholders." It's a fairly vague statement, but somewhat encouraging and most definitely a step in the right direction. You can read the full statement from Mike Shields, SPV's President and CEO after the jump.
[Source: Saleen Performance Vehicles]
To note:
• In February, 2009, MJ Acquistitions purchased many of the assets of Saleen Inc., including the rights to the Saleen brand, and certain assets relating to Saleen's supercharger, aftermarket and high performance street vehicle businesses.
• That part of the company is now doing business as Saleen Performance Vehicles, as a member of the automotive technology enterprise that also includes Power-Tec Engineering, Cyltec, Control-Tec, and Arrow Racing Engines.
• Saleen Performance Vehicles is preparing to launch two, new Saleen high-performance 2010 Mustangs this year, including a vehicle later this week during Mustang Week activities in Myrtle Beach, SC.
• Steve Saleen officially left Saleen, Inc. in 2007.
Statement from Mike Shields, President and CEO of Saleen Performance Vehicles:
TROY, Mich., July 20 -- "We're dismayed by the lawsuit that was filed this weekend by Steve Saleen, and even more disappointed by the fact that it appears to be an attempt to disrupt the debut of our new Saleen vehicle this week.
"Our company's purchase of certain assets in February entitles us to use the Saleen brand for our superchargers, aftermarket parts and high performance vehicles, and we look forward to continuing the legacy of great Saleen products that fulfill the brand promise of 'Power in the Hands of a Few.'
"While this lawsuit is an unfortunate minor distraction, our dedicated team of enthusiasts is excited about not only the launch of our exciting new Saleen car later this week, but also on working closely with our loyal dealers and customers to ensure their satisfaction. As I stated last week during a media teleconference, we are working to resolve past warranty issues and have every intention of going forward with a warranty policy that will provide confidence to all our valued stakeholders.
"The Saleen Performance Vehicles brand is not about one person. It represents a legacy of high-performance vehicles that has developed over the past quarter century, and we feel privileged to be entrusted with that legacy going forward. Everyone in our company takes that responsibility seriously. That's why we're so enthusiastic about the future of our company, and why we can't wait to begin its latest chapter this week at Myrtle Beach."

The dear departed was invariably picked to have his feet washed; being male, being a solid member of whichever parish we were in and being someone who would not say "no". He hated it; trying to find decent socks, shoes that he could easily get off and on with arthritic fingers, making sure his toenails were decent and making sure he put out his left foot only, he didn't want any priest to be startled by his hammer toe on the right foot. We'd never start that Mass in the right frame of mind, he'd be worrying too much, and he a server of some standing, proficient in both rites. This was different, it was about him as a man, not a server, and he simply hated the attention.
Thought (1): It is disruptive to the congregation.
My old Novus Ordo Missal says the following:
The washing of the feet may follow the homily. The men who have been chosen are led by the ministers to chairs prepared in a suitable place. The priest goes to each man. With the help of ministers, he pours water over each one's feet and dries them.
Thought (2) : that word "may"... it is optional, remember that, it is optional
Thought (3): those words "suitable place".... I maintain the sanctuary is NOT a suitable place. My first parish in Salford was blessed with a very large sanctuary, but the priest (no Trad) always insisted that chairs were positioned infront of where the altar rails would have been, had they not been removed. He said, "it is about serving the people of God, and that takes place outside the sanctuary, we serve God in the sanctuary". He had a point, and I happen to agree with him. Indeed, I've been informed that if this ever takes place in the Orthodox liturgy, it obviously happens on the layman's side of the iconostasis. I would also argue that hospitals, prisons etc are suitable places. The Mandatum could be seen as "liturgy in the streets" in a way that no other aspect of the liturgy can.
Thought (4): you don't need 12, but you knew that already
Thought (5): If women are permitted, women are permitted, deal with it. However, this woman won't be volunteering. Having been privileged enough to receive the Sacrament of the Sick in the old rite where one's feet are anointed with the sacred oil... oh dear no! Priests and women's feet, it is too intimate... I actually kept my shoes on and he did a double anointing on both hands instead... we were both uncomfortable about the intimacy of seeing my feet, that felt right, I was not about to expire, I was not on my death bed, though the sacrament was absolutely necessary, undressing before him would have been wrong. It was unsaid, we both just knew that naked female feet were not appropriate.
Thought (6)
Is it actually "liturgy" at all? It could be argued that it is a form of preaching, and before Pius XII, was not preaching seen as a non-liturgical act? Indeed, just like the maniple is removed before the homily and the homily takes place outside the sanctuary because it is not a liturgical act, there is no maniple for the washing of the feet, there is a REAL TOWEL. Hmmm.....that says to me it was originally not intended to be liturgical.... therefore it can be performed anywhere and on anybody as an act of symbolic service to God's people by priests, mother superiors, bishops, popes.... just not in the sanctuary... because it is non-liturgical. BUT we are in a mess because preaching is considered to be a liturgical thing these days and the maniple is not worn in the new rite.
Thought (7)
If it is just a re-enactment of Christ's symbolic act of service to the Eleven, then surely it should only be performed by a Bishop on priests (and probably only in a Cathedral). It is a heirarchy thing, and if it is clerical, then it is clerical and laypersons should not be used, especially to "represent" the priesthood.
I now attend a 12 noon Mass on Holy Thursday because I have become so uncomfortable with seeing the Mandatum take place in the sanctuary. The noon Mass has no Mandatum and I then return to the church for the stripping of the altar and watching in the evening.... it is the stripping of the altar that sends the shivers down my spine.... and to me, it is that act that is the essence of that special day.

Post in collaboration with Selfridges, but love of talking about Christmas long before December all my own
There are several reasons why this year I'm thinking about the a certain festive season a little early:
1) I've been on a spending ban for the past month, so naturally present shopping for others is the next best thing.
2) It's my first Christmas away from home, so naturally every other conversation with parents turns to 'what are your plans for Christmas this year love?'
3) I always leave things too late and witness the dreaded 'sold out online' logo far too often.
4) It's the first Christmas where I don't have to hide presents in the back of my wardrobe so LET'S GO BIG PEOPLE.
So, I'm going to start the Christmas conversation here.
I'm not sure if it's a little early (possibly as we still have a few days until Halloween)- but having spoken to a couple of pals who are already comfortably halfway through their Christmas shopping- it posed the Carrie Bradshaw-esque question of: can you ever start prepping for the best season too early? In all seriousness, with Autumn in full swing and it also being my first Christmas in my own place- I've started thinking about the festive season involuntarily early, hampers and all. With a wedding to save for, and the season of giving and spending with those you love being my absolute favourite- getting organised in true Monica Gellar style has become my new hobby of choice.
Growing up my mum always used to pick them up for family that didn't live in London- and always consisted of so many treats that people would always be thrilled to have in the cupboards too. This year one of my favourite department stores in London, Selfridges, have a ridiculously impressive selection with everything from salted caramel hampers (I know) to a breakfast in bed option– which, in my opinion would be the most beautiful gift for someone the morning after a dinner party (fancy, but perfect no?)
My tips for preparing early:
– Start making notes (phone or otherwise) on gift ideas! Drop hints into conversations, browse Pinterest boards and go shopping with friends if you can- taking pointers along the way!
– Pick up small bits when you go out so it feels less full on when the time comes around. Pick up a book of stamps with the food shop for Christmas cards (because 100 stamps isn't cheap) and gift wrap when you see it to avoid missing out later.
– Look online for special gifts that'll be harder to come by the nearer to Christmas you get. You don't have to buy them instantly but keep an eye on things- beautiful hampers fly out so make sure you don't leave it too late.
– Bake! A lot of seasonal treats, including delicious fruit cake, can be made well in advance and frozen- meaning more time for Christmas films and putting your feet up come December- not badio dadio!

Dry Creek Trail is a 6.2 mile moderately trafficked loop trail located near North Salt Lake, Utah that features beautiful wild flowers and is rated as moderate. The trail offers a number of activity options and is best used from April until October. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.

mountain biking
nature trips

wild flowers
From Foothill Blvd. and Sunnyside Avenue (800 South) travel north on Foothill Blvd. to the second traffic light (Wasatch Drive). Turn right onto Wasatch Drive and drive through the next traffic light (South Campus Drive) and continue north until Wasatch Drive deadends at North Campus Drive. Turn right (east) onto North Campus Drive and proceed east through the traffic light and soon after turn left (north) into the Jewish Community Center (JCC) parking lot (opposite the entrance to the University Medical Center). The JCC has graciously provided off-street parking in the east end of the JCC parking lot. Please limit your parking to the east end of the lot and don't abuse the privilege of this off-street parking. From the east end of the JCC parking lot, walk through a narrow gate at the north end of the power station, and proceed about 200 yards northeast past the power station and along the old service road to its U-turn at the mouth of Dry Canyon. At the U-turn a brown carsonite post with the BST logo marks the start of this segment of the BST.
Wow. Great downhill ride, didn't managed to reach the top. Be careful a lot of hikers along the way. However you'll enjoy the scenery, city view. Salt Lake will be missed.
I did this a few days ago and the climb up Mount Van Cott was beautiful. Even the ridge past Van Cott was fun and had an established trail to follow. However once it was time to begin the loop back down Dry Creek the trail became very narrow and hard follow. Most difficult of all was that it led to a field of stinging nettle. For this time of season, it may be best to wait for the vegetation to be less overgrown.

Good enough trail for hiking, but be aware there are lots of mountain bikers out here.
there is a beautiful, secluded oasis up here. my favorite spot in the city.
The bikes and lack of parking bring the rating down. but the hike itself is awesome even if you stay right and have to stream hop for about a mile in spring
After 3/4 mile on the northern part of the loop the dry creek is no longer dry. After 1 1/2 miles the trail is simply not there. If you want the views just do an out an back on the southern part of the loop, Deer Trail. Otherwise wear pants, long sleeves, and boots, not shoes, as you will be bushwacking 1 1/2 miles or so and there are tons of burrs and nettles.
If you look at the recordings most people aren't doing the listed route.
This is a nice section of the BST the takes you back behind the hill with the "Block U", so you're a little more secluded from the city than most of the BST. As another review has noted, currently (summer 2016) there is no trail parking at the JCC. You could park at the hospital across the street though. Note that the route I'm currently seeing associated with this trail starts with Dry Creek, but most people would probably follow the BST up to where it makes the hairpin turn and up toward the avenues. The route shown here, into the drainage that forks left at 3/4 mile, is the S fork of Dry Creek and is the area where Elizabeth Smart was held captive. It quickly becomes less and less of a trail, and in spring to early summer will have water in the bottom (and a lot of brush and bugs). Up towards the head of the canyon the trail mostly disappears. The trail down the ridge to Van Cott is pretty fun, although it's certainly not the Dry Creek trail at that point :-)
Hardest phase was the steps at the very start. Beautiful view hiking between a pair of cliffs that bracket the trail. We usually keep going, turning west where the trail branches, and camp at an overlook that has a great city view.
It's a great trail...but be aware that there are signs EVERYWHERE at the JCC saying that the parking lot is NOT for trail use. It might be because part of the parking lot is under construction...but you might want to find somewhere else to park. And if you plan to hike this trail, be sure to pay attention because it is very popular with bikers. :)

US$ 163 million Grant to Ethiopia to Finance the Protection of Basic Services Programme
Tunis, December 18th, 2008 - The Board of Directors of the African Development Bank (AfDB) Group has approved a Unit of Account (UA)* 110 million African Development Fund (ADF) grant, equivalent to US$ 163.6 million, to finance the Protection of Basic Services II (PBS II) programme in Ethiopia.
Services are more crucial than ever in this country before because of its difficult socioeconomic situation and macroeconomic environment, caused by external factors, especially the hike in oil prices and food products. The urgent allocation of resources by the African Development Bank, the World Bank, and other major development partners will be essential in helping Ethiopia manage these problems.
The purpose of the PBS II programme is to help the Government of Ethiopia implement its poverty reduction strategy (the PASDEP). By the end of the three year implementation period, the expected results are: (i) improved social indicators; (ii) robust fiduciary arrangements; and (iii) local governance structures that ensure effective development. The ADF's PBS II will contribute to financing the delivery of basic services targeting primary health, education, agriculture, and water and sanitation at the local level with the aim of influencing the implementation of Ethiopia's Decentralization Governance agenda.
The program will contribute to the maintenance of Ethiopia's macroeconomic stability through its provision of foreign currency. This will assist in reducing the budget's funding deficit. Other benefits include the enhancement of basic service delivery services, notably disadvantaged groups and communities. The program will also give indirect beneficiaries, like the rural and urban poor, the potential to participate in budget decisions that directly affect them.
The grant will be split into three sections, over three financial periods, from June 2008 to July 2011.
The AfDB started operations in Ethiopia in 1975. To date, its cumulative commitment in the country stands at US$ 2.564 billion for 106 operations. The AfDB's objective is to reduce poverty by addressing key policy and administrative challenges related to local governance; public financial management; the quality of locally delivered basic services; and inequities in access to the services.

DETROIT — The Vegas Golden Knights turned their expansion season into a special one by making a lot of good decisions.
Like the addition of goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury.
"He makes an expansion team not be an expansion team," Vegas coach Gerard Gallant said.
No one outside the organization expected the Pacific Division-leading Golden Knights to be this good so fast. With less than a month left in the regular season, they easily have the largest divisional lead (95 points to the second-place San Jose Sharks' 83) and are chasing Nashville (100 points) for top spot in the Western Conference.
The odds that Vegas could hoist the Stanley Cup are not long.
"The expectations weren't high, but we all thought we could be better and we showed it," Fleury said last week after his 47th career shutout, a 4-0 win in Detroit. "Sometimes earlier in the season, I would wonder, 'Wow. Are we really still in that position?' And, we kept winning and holding strong in the standings."
Fleury has a lot to do the startling success.
Pittsburgh left him unprotected in the expansion draft after he waived his no-movement clause, allowing the Penguins to keep 23-year-old Matt Murray after he led the franchise to its second straight Stanley Cup championship.
"I had a good idea it was going to happen, but you're never sure until your name is called," Fleury said. "I was still in a shock for me and my family. But the organization in Vegas from the staff, the coaches, the GM, the owner, was very welcoming and helped us with the transition."
The Penguins even gave Vegas a second-round pick in 2020 to take Fleury, who had two years and more than $11 million left on his contract. He has provided a return on the investment.
"The fit has been perfect," Golden Knights general manager George McPhee said. "His leadership was something we wanted for our locker room."
Fleury ranks among the league leaders with career bests in goals-against average (2.15) and save percentage (.930). He also became a three-time All-Star this season.
"I feel pretty good, but my teammates have been good in front of me," he said. "By blocking shots and clearing rebounds away, that makes me look better."
Fleury has won 25 of 37 starts in a season stunted only by a concussion that kept him out of the lineup for two months. Earlier this week, he became the 13th goaltender in NHL history to win 400 games, trailing just Roberto Luongo and Henrik Lundqvist among active players.
"At the start of the year, he was our best player," Vegas forward David Perron said. "When he got hurt, we found out we had a really good team because we kept winning. Then, we got him back and we took another step and we haven't stopped."
