Honorary cat mayor of Alaska town grabs hearts globally
- Town launched write-in campaign for Stubbs as a joke 16 years ago
- Loose dog mauled Stubbs on Aug. 31%2C causing serious injuries
- Veterinary hospital says Stubbs might be able to return home Monday
Move over Grumpy Cat.
The feline mayor of a small town in Alaska is grabbing hearts all over the world after being mauled on Aug. 31 by a loose dog.
People from far and wide seem to be rooting for Stubbs the Cat, the small orange tabby who is honorary mayor of Talkeetna, Alaska. Little Stubbs suffered a punctured lung, long deep gash on his side and a badly fractured sternum and those around him feared he wouldn't make it. In fact, the vet who rode with him for the hour-long, nighttime ride to the animal hospital brought along a euthanasia kit just in case. On Sunday, Stubbs had surgery to insert a chest tube for his punctured lung.
Now, fans are joining his Facebook page, prodding him to run for president and sending good thoughts via his owner, Lauri Stec. There's even a Facebook page promoting Stubbs for president of the United States, and a Twitter account, @MayorStubbs. One of the latest tweets: "UPDATE: the Mayor is on high alert. He's feeling better but could really use some yarn. GET THIS MAN SOME YARN."
"I'm getting cards and calls from Australia to Germany to fricking London to all over the lower 48," said Stubbs' owner, Lauri Stec, 54, of Talkeetna.
Locals are rooting for Stubbs too. The cat is a fixture around tiny Talkeetna, population 876, 112 miles north of Anchorage. Owner Stec picked him out of a box of kittens for sale right outside of Nagley's General Store, where she is manager, because he had no tail. Shortly after, a write-in campaign launched as a joke landed Stubbs the job of mayor. He lives at Nagley's but roams wherever he wants, along the streets and in and out of shops. He likes to drink water out of the goldfish bowl in the shop, but doesn't bother the goldfish, and is a friendly cat.
"He makes his rounds, he does whatever he wants to do," Stec says. "If you're sitting at the pub bar here and he feels like jumping on top of the bar and looking at what you're doing, he'll do it."
The staff members at Big Lake-Susitna Veterinary Hospital in Big Lake, Alaska, say Stubbs should fare well and might be able to come home Monday, Stec reports. She visited him on Thursday and he was improving, though still heavily drugged from pain medication.
"He's pretty out of it still," she said. "His pupils were dilated. I could scratch his little ears until he fell asleep."
She adds she is optimistic because this is not the cat's firs time overcoming big troubles. He's also survived being shot with a BB gun, taking a clandestine ride on a garbage truck and jumping into a vat of oil (unheated) in Stec's kitchen.
"He's obviously strong," Stec said. "This is probably his 20th life."
Actually, Stubbs was famous even before this latest mishap with the loose dog.
About a year ago, a local CBS affiliate did a piece on Stubbs and it went viral, with Stec getting calls from media all over the world. Even 9 Lives cat food created a satirical spoof with Stubbs running as vice president with White House candidate Morris the Cat.
When hizzoner returns home, he will have to be caged to help his sternum heal, Stec says, but the cage will be placed somewhere where Stubbs can still interact with people because that's what he likes, Stec says.
In the meantime, she is not sure whether she will press charges against the dog's owners.
"The dog has not been seen and neither has the owner," she said. "I can guarantee you they will not come into this town again."
An IndieGogo crowd-funding campaign has been launched to help pay for Stubbs' medical bills. Click here to donate.

A.2 Requirements
To set up SSL connections, you will need to download two programs in addition to Samba:
- SSLeay
Eric Young's implementation of the Secure Socket's Layer (SSL) protocol as a series of Unix programming libraries
- SSL Proxy
A freeware SSL application from Objective Development, which can be used to proxy a secure link on Unix or Windows NT platforms
These two products assist with the server and client side of the encrypted SSL connection. The SSLeay libraries are compiled and installed directly on the Unix system. SSL Proxy, on the other hand, can be downloaded and compiled (or downloaded in binary format) and located on the client side. If you intend to have a Windows NT client or a Samba client on the other end of the SSL connection, you will not require a special setup.
SSL Proxy, however, does not work on Windows 95/98 machines. Therefore, if you want to have a secure connection between a Samba server and Windows 95/98 client, you will need to place either a Unix server or a Windows NT machine on the same subnet with the Windows 9 x clients and route all network connections through the SSL-Proxy-enabled machine. See Figure A.1.
Figure A.1: Two possible ways of proxying Windows 95/98 clients
For the purposes of this chapter, we will create a simple SSL connection between the Samba server and a Windows NT client. This configuration can be used to set up more complex networks at the administrator's discretion.

If you're around old cars very long, you'll notice that most projects shift gears at some point in the buildup. The owners might say it started out to be a driver, but it just got out of hand. The same can be said for this '72 Nova, owned by Indiana's Brian Adams. He bought the car partially complete and intended on building a weekend cruiser with A/C.
But things changed. Obviously. The result is a wicked street car, producing 950 hp, thanks to an all-aluminum 632ci big-block. Brian runs in the NMCA True Street class, where cars are required to make a 30-mile drive, and most cars run in the 9-second range in the quarter-mile.
Brian works at BES Racing Engines in Guilford, Indiana, and came across the Nova through a long-time customer and New York native, Jaimie Stanton. The car was purchased without the drivetrain, but most of the chassis work was complete. The paint was finished, so Brian's efforts were concentrated on the engine, transmission and interior, along with all the final detail work. Brian completed the car in 2008 and began testing the combination at local tracks. So far, he's run a best of 9.11 at 147 mph in the quarter, and the fact that it's an all-motor car makes it much more consistent than his forced induction and nitrous-fed competitors.
Underneath, Brian's Nova is equipped with a nice selection of components to strengthen and lighten it, while also increasing traction. The modifications started up front, with a set of chrome-moly upper and lower control arms from PA Racing. Then, a pair of QA1 coilovers replaced the original springs, and the front sway bar went to the swap meet pile. Another weight saving measure came in the form of Strange brakes on all four corners, which consist of aluminum four-piston calipers and lightweight rotors. The Nova rolls on a set of American Racing TrakStar wheels, 15x3.5 up front and 15x12 out back, all wrapped in M/T rubber. The True Street class requires DOT-approved street tires, so Brian runs M/T 295/65R15 drag radials, which get the job done and look awesome tucked deeply into the quarter-panels.
Novas have never been known to accept a very wide rear tire, so the frame rails were moved inward and deeper tubs were installed to accommodate the big radials. The original leaf springs are long gone, and Jaimie Stanton is responsible for setting up the ladder bar rear suspension. A pair of Strange coilovers help in the traction department, while the Competition Engineering subframe connectors keep chassis flex to a minimum. The Nova also has a rear anti-roll bar, which keeps the car level off the line.
When Brian changed the direction of this car's build, he had intentions of competing in the Hot Rod Magazine Pump Gas Drags. The engine in his Nova is built to run on 93-octane gas, so the compression ratio isn't insanely high, making it perfect for NMCA True Street action. Tony Bischoff started with a World Products aluminum block, and opened the cylinders up to 4.600 inches. When the machine work reached completion, he installed a Callies crankshaft that features a 4.750-inch stroke, bringing total displacement to 632. A set of Eagle 6.200-inch connecting rods sling Ross pistons, while a Milodon oil pump heads up the lubrication department.
Atop the block is a pair of Edelbrock CNC Victor cylinder heads, packed with enormous Manley valves motivated by a Crane camshaft with 282/302 duration and 0.800-inch lift. Fabricated aluminum valve covers hide the Jesel rocker arms and look great inside the super clean and simple engine bay. The mill is fed by an ACCEL Gen 7 DFI system using an Edelbrock intake manifold, while an MSD lights the fire in the combustion chambers.
Outgoing air flows through a set of Hooker headers and 3 1/2-inch exhaust before entering the Magnaflow mufflers, and emitting a beautiful tune. The big-block makes 947 hp and 800 lb-ft of torque at the flywheel. Behind the rat is a JW Powerglide transmission built to withstand lots of abuse. Brian uses a 5,100 rpm stall converter to leave the line with tons of force, and a TCI shifter to select the gear he wants.
Stanton finished the bodywork and paint before selling the car to Brian, and he did an awesome job with it. The body is all steel, aside from the fiberglass cowl induction hood, and Jaimie worked hard to restore the '72 Nova body. The panels are super straight and aligned precisely, and the Dupont Prowler Orange has been sanded and buffed to perfection. The finishing touches consist of a silver Yenko stripe kit, and two license plates that read "PUMP GAS."
Inside, you'll find simple styling, as the interior is basically stock, with the exception of the aluminum Kirkey seats. A Covan's Classic gauge panel replaces the stock unit, and accommodates the Auto Meter gauges. Simpson harnesses keep Brian safe, as does the 8.50-certified roll cage, complete with a window net.
Throughout the buildup process, Brian received lots of help from his boss, Tony Bischoff. And while the build may have gotten out of hand, Brian's wife, Stephanie supported him all the way, which is always a good thing.
Brian plans to keep running in the True Street class, and with the car's moderate compression and bulletproof bottom end, he may even consider a power adder. Either way, Brian isn't complaining, as his Nova proves to be a fan favorite and a strong force on race day.

Bobby Flay makes this extremely good barbecue sauce by spiking tomato puree with two forms of smoky chile—ancho chile powder and chipotle in adobo sauce—then adding peanut butter for sweetness. The sauce takes some time to prepare, but by doubling the recipe, it can be made in one large batch and kept in the refrigerator for up to two months.
How to Make It
In a medium saucepan, heat the 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the onion and ginger and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add the tomato puree, ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, honey, molasses, ancho chile powder, chipotle and water. Bring to a simmer and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 30 minutes. Transfer the sauce to a blender. Add the peanut butter and puree until smooth. Season the barbecue sauce with salt and pepper.
Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Brush the cut sides of the buns with oil and grill until toasted, about 30 seconds. Spread some of the barbecue sauce on the buns.
Form the meat into four 1-inch-thick patties and brush with oil. Season with salt and pepper and grill over high heat, turning once, until nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes. Brush the burgers with some of the sauce and grill until lightly glazed, about 2 minutes. Top with the cheddar and scallion, close the grill and cook just until the cheese is completely melted, about 1 minute. Set the burgers on the buns, top with lettuce and tomato and serve right away.

With both teams waiting on the benches, the start of the game was delayed 30 minutes as former Coyotes captain Keith Tkachuk was inducted into the team's Ring of Honor. The result was a largely tentative first period with few scoring chances and little physical play.
All that changed in the final two periods.
"We're creatures of habit," Elliott said. "It's hard. They got a couple of chances early and you want to make those saves to get your head in the game."
Matt D'Agostini and Jason Arnott also scored for the Blues, who have won six of eight. St. Louis has points in 18 of its last 21 games (14-3-4) since Ken Hitchcock took over as coach after David Payne was fired Nov. 8.
"We really gutted it out," Hitchcock said. "Both teams, especially in the second and third periods, really went right at each other. It was more of a feeling-out process."
Shane Doan and Keith Yandle scored for the Coyotes, who had won two in a row. Phoenix fell to 7-8-2 at home.
"We've been banging our head against the wall trying to figure out why," coach Dave Tippett said. "If you would have told me that by Christmas we'd be a game under .500, I would have been very surprised. That's something that's going to have to change."
After a scoreless first period, Steen gave the Blues a 1-0 lead at 7:12 of the second when he took a long outlet pass from Alex Pietrangelo and beat Jason LaBarbera from the bottom of the left circle.
Doan tied the game 44 seconds later on a long rebound to the inside hash of the left circle, but D'Agostini put the Blues in front to stay with a slap shot from the right circle at 18:25 of the period.
"They had tired people on the ice and we caught them there," Hitchcock said. "But they did the same thing to us."
Arnott made it 3-1 at 1:48 of the third, seconds after Phoenix's Martin Hanzal left the ice after being struck in the face on an inadvertent high stick by David Backes.
"We knew what we were going to get from them," LaBarbera said. "There wasn't a whole lot of room out there and they played a pretty tight game. They got a couple of bounces and it went their way."
Phoenix cut the lead to one when Yandle one-timed a pass from Raffi Torres past Elliott from the bottom of the right circle with 6:21 to go.
NOTES: LaBarbera was starting in place of Mike Smith, out with an undisclosed lower body injury. ... Tkachuk is the second player who spent the bulk of his career with the franchise in Phoenix to be inducted into the team's Ring of Honor, following defenceman Teppo Numminen. Steen's father, Tomas, also is in the Coyotes' Ring of Honor.

Except I Shall See—Part A
I cannot hear His words
If He's not with me.
I cannot feel His touch
If He's not here.
I cannot tell the world
My Lord still walks with me
If I can't see Him
And have Him near.
Except I shall see, I will not believe.
Except I behold His wounds,
I will always grieve.
Except I put my finger into the print of nails,
He has not risen up for me.
I will not,
I cannot

Finally received the Ano Hana posters that were made to promote the ED theme along with the limited edition CD single. I've also got the first press edition of the OP's CD single on the way as well.
Spoiler for Ano Hana ED LE CD Single + store exclusive bonus posters:
The store exclusive bonus poster that came the LE ED CD single from Tsutaya's online shop contains Menma, which obviously forms a whole image if you put together the store exclusive bonus posters from HMV Japan & Tower Records. I did get Tsutaya's bonus poster and will be receiving that in about 2 weeks.

Ok I would kill for that big white poster you have. I tried looking at the Tsutaya online store, but got a tad lost (even with 4 years of Japanese) :[
Would you happen to have a link to it so I can purchase one too? Or are the LE CDs all gone?
EDIT: I'd do almost anything for it >.>;

The LE CD single for it with the Menma poster have all sold out awhile ago so your only chance would likely be on Yahoo Japan Auctions using a deputy service. For future reference, the link to Tsutaya's online shop is here. I believe they remove the item listing from the site once it has sold out completely and it won't be restocked.

this is as close as to one out there so far. I'm sure there will be figures made pretty soon.

I'm seeing a listing from 2channel that says the first volume of the BD/DVD has outsold any other noitaminA show by more than double:

11,886 Mononoke
10,812 Eden of the East

This list is pretty disappointing for me, since House of Five Leaves is one of my favorite shows of the past few years, and I liked Paradise Kiss, Hataraki Man, Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, Shiki, Hourou Musuko, and Genji, too -- all of which sold under 1500 copies.

When I first came to China in 2004, I came alone. In the small town to which I moved to teach English, I would often eat out alone, poke around the streets alone, and wander through the nearby fields and villages alone. Except I wasn't really alone; there was usually someone tagging along just behind me, or hanging around my dinner table, or moving through the grocery store aisle by my side. They were usually under the age of 30, and often came in pairs. They wanted to ask me where I was from, try out their few words of English, see what I was buying, or just generally observe my strangeness as I went about my business. People approached me often to take my photo.
When I came back to live in China again in 2009, I came with RP – and hardly anybody approached me anymore. China changed so much in the first decade of the new millennium that I simply assumed that people had become more sophisticated in the 5 years since I had last resided there. The Olympics had happened; a flood of foreigners had come to China to do business, teach English, and study Mandarin; average people were well-acquainted with American pop culture and Western products. I figured that people were just too cool now to be interested in foreigners, or at least too cool to appear interested.
It turns out that it was simply a case of being too intimidated to come up and speak to two foreigners walking down the street or eating dinner together. China's general public may well be more sophisticated now than they were in 2004, but as soon as I was traveling alone this fall, the interest from strangers started up again with a vengeance.
This time, however, my Chinese was much improved. Since it was slightly off-season for tourists, I was often the only foreigner in the endless string of 8-to-a-room hostels I occupied – and unless you're feeling really tough, it's hard to keep up the ruse that you don't understand when your bunk mates are all talking about you two feet away.
So I would introduce myself, and that would begin the two-hour conversation about life in America, life in China as an American, superficial analyses of China's grand economic and political strategies, and so on. Occupy Wall Street activities were just hitting the Chinese news (and were uncensored, at least initially, I'm sure because the Chinese government took pleasure in the sight of what appeared to be massive anti-capitalist protests in the world's richest nation).
The people staying in these hostels were usually university students traveling on their school break, and I found the prevailing attitude about the OWS protests to be fascinating: that it indicated the end of the United States. I had several people ask me, in all seriousness, when Obama would be resigning.
A common sentiment expressed to me by Chinese acquaintances in all walks of life has been that the worst attribute society can have is luan: disorder, or even chaos. But because of the heavy censorship of the press, I'm not sure most Chinese people know how luan society there already is; the huge protests in Wukan, Guangdong this fall and winter were only the most explosive of an increasing number of incidents of "social unrest" happening in China every year (some 180,000 in 2010 alone, according to Tsinghua University Professor of Sociology Sun Liping). Without access to that knowledge, you can see why people would look at images like the following being blasted all over the internet, and assume that the end is nigh:
I tried to explain that these were protests about economic inequality and outrageous corporate power in the US political process, and that if the US were going to crumble it probably wouldn't be because of these incidents, but I'm not sure they believed me.
At any rate, I found these conversations refreshing for their (relative – very relative) depth. I don't know if it's because I spend a lot of time hanging out in the Chinese boondocks, but the average conversation someone strikes up with me about America go no further than this (verbatim, no joke):
Shop Keeper: Oh, you're American! America is great.
Me: Why do you say that?
Shop Keeper: America is developed. ("美国的发展好.")
While these conversations are usually painfully uninformed, they're always very friendly. It's certainly pretty unusual to hear a Chinese person say that they hate America. Much more typical is having someone inform you, completely unsolicited, that they hate hate HATE the Japanese, but that they think America is just terrific. So while I was getting used to having random people approach me for a quick chat again, I was unprepared for the following scene that occurred on my last afternoon in Hangzhou.
Scene: Bird sits in an anonymous restaurant eating braised tofu with rice. Mid-bite, a Random Old Man (ROM) plops himself down in the empty seat across from her.
ROM: Hey, are you Russian?
Bird: No, I'm not Russian. I'm American.
ROM: Not Russian, huh?
Bird: Nope.
ROM: China has good relations with Russia, you know. And Germany. And France.
Bird: You don't say.
ROM: But you're American. (Beat) I hate America.
Bird: Why would that be?
ROM: You guys are messing with our economy!
Bird: We're messing with your economy? Are you aware of the fact that the Chinese government owns over a trillion dollars of US debt? And that China has protectionist policies about its own industries while flooding the US with cheap, low-quality goods – goods whose price is only so low because the Chinese government controls the value of the renminbi?!
ROM: Hey, don't get mad.
Bird: Sure, why should I be mad? You only interrupted my lunch to tell me that you hate my country.
ROM: It's just that I hate Obama, that black guy.
Bird: Really – and why is that?
ROM: He's made a really bad impression on average Chinese people.
Bird: Exactly which of Obama's policies are you against?
ROM: Why is America involved in so many wars, like the ones in Iraq and Afghanistan? Iraqis are people too, you know.
Bird: I'm sure most Americans would agree with you there. Actually, many Americans are against those wars. We have protested in the streets, but our government doesn't listen to us. It's important to remember that people are different from their governments – that governments make decisions without consulting their people, policies that often contradict the people's wishes.
ROM: That's because you Americans have too many political parties.
Bird: Actually we only really have two.
ROM: Well, that's too many. We Chinese only have one. The Communist Party.
Bird: Yes I know that. Everyone knows that.
ROM: China's a peaceful place, you know! We're don't go around starting wars with everybody!
Bird: My understanding is that China has so many internal conflicts that it doesn't really need to wage war with anyone else.
ROM: Huh?
Bird: Forget it.
ROM: I think the Communist Party is really great. Particularly what they're doing in places like Tibet. Tibet's a better place now than it's ever been before, wouldn't you agree?
Bird: Check please!
ROM: Nah, come on – have some more rice!
Bird: CHECK PLEASE RIGHT NOW!

Dexter's guardian, Lauren Girard Curtis is a good friend to the Dog Files, and I just saw this great video she did with Dexter and thought I'd show you guys. Lauren is also the guardian of Paige The BC and both pups act on TV and in the movies.
Here a little about Dexter from Lauren herself: "Dexter is my 2 year old mix breed rescue pup. He was pulled from a high kill shelter in Tennessee, transported up the East Coast, and given a second chance at life. He is such a happy dog and he constantly makes me smile! He and Paige are best friends! I train my dogs using clicker/positive reinforcement."

fontmatrix is a manager built with the kind of features and abilities
graphic designers, layout professionals along with others have felt
necessary, but modernized with some new touches.
Fontmatrix has a concept of 'tagging'. This makes it really nice to
group fonts and even sub-group them logically for use in a book for
instance. It also has extensive gui support for showing all glyphs
in a font, previews of sample text, variable sizing and also tells
what kinds of advanced Open Type features are inside each font. These
features have never been seen outside of a font editor. And not least,
it creates a nice PDF catalogue of user's fonts for printing or
reference. In short, fontmatrix is a font manager for professionals,
but is nice and user friendly.
This package can make use of the optional dependency podofo: install
it and then pass HAVE_PODOFO="yes" to the slackbuild.

The Houston Dynamo return home to face a massive match in their bid for a playoff spot as they play host to the New York Red Bulls on Sunday afternoon at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo come home off a three-game road swing that ended with a 2-0 midweek loss at Columbus that dropped them out of the top five in the Eastern Conference. The Red Bulls have moved back into a tie atop the division, following their 2-1 home win against D.C. United last week.

- FUTURE MATCH: 10/20: Houston Dynamo vs. New York Red Bulls, 4 p.m. CT (UniMas)
- The teams are meeting for the second time this season. Fabian Espíndola and Jonny Steele scored second- half goals to lead the Red Bulls to a 2-0 win June 30 in Harrison.
- The visiting team has never won in league play in the all-time series between the teams. The Red Bulls are 6- 0-3 all-time at home vs. Houston; the Dynamo are 4-0-3 all-time at home vs. New York.
- The Red Bulls did win the second leg of a conference semifinal series in Houston in the 2008 MLS Cup Playoffs, advancing 4-1 on aggregate after a 3-0 win at Robertson Stadium, following a 1-1 draw in the first leg.
- Coaches record: Mike Petke vs. HOU: P1 W1 L0 D0 ... Dominic Kinnear v NY: P21 W6 L7 D8
The Houston Dynamo concluded their three-game road swing with a second defeat, this time a 2-0 loss to the Columbus Crew on Wednesday evening at Crew Stadium. The Dynamo are in a tie for fifth place in the Eastern Conference with 37 points from 26 matches.
- The Crew opened the scoring in the 47th minute. Bernardo Añor found Justin Meram with a beautiful diagonal pass, and he played a ball across the six-yard box for Ryan Finley to tuck away.
- The Crew had a glorious chance to double their lead when they were awarded a penalty kick after Bobby Boswell pulled back Dominic Oduro as he surged into the box. But Finley put his ensuing spot kick directly at Dynamo 'keeper Tally Hall.
- The Crew made up for it in the 74th minute, when Meram found himself with the ball on the outside of the box after Finley was able to only deflect a cross from Oduro from the right wing. Meram faked to his right, and cut back to his left foot before sliding a low shot past Hall inside the far post.
- Dynamo head coach Dominic Kinnear made four changes to the team that reached a 1-1 draw with the Chicago Fire at Toyota Park. Corey Ashe, Jason Johnson, Andrew Driver and Cam Weaver all came into the team, in place of Eric Brunner and Giles Barnes and international campaigners Jermaine Taylor and Boniek Garcia.
- HOUSTON DYNAMO (4-4-2): Tally Hall - Kofi Sarkodie, Warren Creavalle, Bobby Boswell, Corey Ashe (Mike Chabala 63) - Jason Johnson (Brian Ownby 75), Adam Moffat, Brad Davis, Andrew Driver (Giles Barnes 53) - Will Bruin, Cam Weaver.
- The Dynamo return home after taking one of a possible nine points on their three-game road swing, all against Eastern Conference opposition, and are now winless in their last four road matches.
- "We had some really good chances early but didn't capitalize," Dynamo goalkeepers coach Tim Hanley said. "It's one of those things that are unlucky – it really could've changed the game, but it didn't tonight."
- The Dynamo conceded multiple goals in a game for the second time on their three-game tour, after going nearly two months without allowing more than a single goal in a contest.
- "We're disappointed with the result obviously. At the end we were fishing for an equalizer and sometimes we give up that second goal. That's frustrating, but as a team we'll stick together," said midfielder Adam Moffat. "We've got eight more games left, five are at home and three on the road so we still feel it's in our own hands, but it was a tough one to take."
- After featuring in the midfield in the draw at Chicago, Warren Creavalle slotted into central defense alongside Bobby Boswell.
- "You've got to have confidence in whoever is in there. We practice enough with each other; it's late in the year, so we're a pretty cohesive group," said Boswell. "Obviously you don't want to see guys get injured and go down, but it's a part of it and we kind of knew with three games in this week with guys missing for different reasons that this was going to be an issue, but for me there's no fingers to point."
- Hall was credited with seven saves, allowing one goal in the game for the sixth time in the last seven matches. The Crew took a season-high 24 total attempts at goal.
- Jason Johnson made his second career MLS start, his first since June 1, coming into wide on the right of midfield. Both of his career league starts have come against the Columbus Crew.
- Brian Ownby made his first league appearance of the season, coming on for the final 15 minutes. He had seen first-team action in the U.S. Open Cup and CONCACAF Champions League.
- Mike Chabala also saw his first MLS minutes since June 1,coming in at left back for the final quarter of the match.
- "I think it's good for some of these guys, a guy like [Jason Johnson], a young guy to get out there and get a start," said defender Bobby Boswell. "It's good to get some guys minutes, but you never call it a success when you lose. You obviously want to get back out there and go at it again."

For Immediate Release: December 3, 2012
Contact: Paul Fidalgo, Communications Director

A federal court in Indiana has dismissed a claim that an Indiana law prohibiting secular celebrants from solemnizing marriages, while allowing religious representatives to do so, violates the First Amendment and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. The Center for Inquiry (CFI), the lead plaintiff in this case, characterized the decision as extraordinary for its inconsistency and its casual acceptance of the privileging of religion and religious individuals.
Indiana, like many states, specifies that marriages can only be performed ("solemnized" to use the legal jargon) by certain government officials, along with clergy and other religious representatives. This allows religious individuals the freedom to arrange for a ceremony meaningful to them, a right denied to nonbelievers. Atheists and other nonreligious Americans are given no recourse but to go before some anonymous government bureaucrat. CFI argued that either secular celebrants chosen by a couple should have the right to solemnize marriages, or else the law should be invalidated for giving the religious a privilege denied to the nonreligious.
The court dismissed CFI's claim, reasoning that CFI was complaining about a mere "inconvenience." However, the court then turned around and said the special privileges enjoyed by the religious were necessary and justifiable as an accommodation of religious beliefs.
"According to the court, what is a required accommodation for the religious, is just a matter of convenience for the nonreligious. It would be difficult to imagine a clearer way to classify nonbelievers as second-class citizens," said Ronald A. Lindsay, president and CEO of CFI. "A wedding is one of the most important ceremonies in a person's life, and it is just as meaningful to atheists as it is to theists. It's disappointing that a 21st-century court refused to recognize this reality."
In finding that the Indiana statute did not deny equal protection to the nonreligious, the court ruled it served a rational purpose. It declined to scrutinize the statute more closely because it found no "history of purposeful unequal treatment" of nonbelievers.
"The court's conclusion that nonbelievers have not been victims of unequal treatment is incredible," said Reba Boyd Wooden, Executive Director of CFI's Indiana branch and Director of CFI's Secular Celebrant program. "There is a long, undeniable history of both legal discrimination and prejudice against nonbelievers in this country. In many states, until the 1960's you couldn't hold public office if you were an atheist. This stems from an outmoded attitude which says that being religious means you can be trusted, while being nonreligious means you can't."

NEW ORLEANS -- After beating the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl and getting into a scrap with fullback Bruce Miller, feisty Ravens cornerback Cary Williams wasn't shy in his opinions about his NFC counterparts.
"To me, I feel like the 49ers are pretenders," Williams said. "They're fake tough guys. You got to play football. We do it physical and we do it between the whistles. They were diving on piles, shoving people from behind. They can try to pretend they're physical, but we really are."
It got chippy in the second quarter with a series of fights breaking out and offsetting personal fouls given to cornerback Corey Graham and 49ers offensive tackle Joe Staley.
Williams lost his temper, repeatedly giving the business to Miller with a flurry of punches. Williams shoved an official, who was trying to restrain him, away in an effort to get more shots in on Miller.
Williams was fortunate to not be ejected.
"I didn't know it was a ref," Williams said. "It was just a reaction. It was a scrum. I feel bad about the situation. It was just a reaction. That's not the way to act. I just wanted to protect my teammates."
As for his future as an unrestricted free agent, Williams said: "I want to be here. Lets do whatever it takess and come up with some kind of deal. If it's up to me, I'm here. I want to be a Raven for life."

WHISTLER, B.C. — Canada was in sight of its third alpine gold medal in a span of two hours before Chris Williamson's spectacular wipeout over Hot Air, the last big jump on the Dave Murray Whistler downhill course, ended the chance Thursday at the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games.
Nonetheless, Canada produced two gold medal performances from Lauren Woolstencroft of North Vancouver, B.C., in the women's standing event and Viviane Forest of Edmonton in the women's visually impaired category.
Woolstencroft won her third gold medal of the 2010 Games and now has sixth golds in her career. This is her third Paralympic Games. Forest, who has been dealing with a groin injury picked up in training a few weeks ago, now has a full set of medals from the international games for adaptive athletes.
She took the bronze in Tuesday's giant slalom and a silver in Monday's slalom race.
Woolstencroft and Forest were nearly joined on the top of the medal podium by Williamson, a visually impaired skier from Markham, Ont. One of the favourites to medal in Whistler, he had the leading intermediate times down his run but caught too much air over the final jump. He landed with his skis splayed and slid wildly off the course. He was estimated to have been travelling between 80-100 km/h.
"It's funny. I can't drive a car, " Williamson said. "But I can go down a ski hill and crash faster than that most people who drive a car through their neighbourhood. It's ski racing. Anything can happen. I'm not disappointed because I had a good race. It sets me up for the super-G."
Woolstencroft, whom many predict will come off Whistler Mountain with five golds by the time the Games wrap up Sunday, became Canada's all-time leading medallist in Paralympic skiing with her victory. She now has a total of eight: six golds, two silvers.
It was another clinical performance by the Ice Maiden, whose control on the slopes and self-control in the finishing area are two of her defining characteristics.
"I'm not an emotional person," says the 28-year-old, who works for BC Hydro as an electrical engineer. "I was nervous for my slalom (the first race of the Games) and this race was probably the second most-nervous. In the downhill, you're putting it all out there, going really fast. I did have butterflies. But I'm feeling great, super confident. I'm super-ready for the next race."
Woolstencroft's race was suspended for several minutes while paramedics attended to Andrea Dziewior of Nanaimo, B.C., who crashed in the finish area while fellow Karolina Wisniewska of Calgary was on course. According to the Canadian Paralympic press attache, Dziewior suffered bruises and a knee injury, but she was otherwise OK. The delay, however, forced Wisniewska to go back up to the top of the course and restart her race.
She was on course for a medal, based on her intermediate times. But Wisniewska admitted her stamina betrayed her near the finish. She crossed the line in fifth place, but just 0.24 seconds away from a bronze medal.
"Physically, by the end of my second go, my legs were so tired," explained Wisniewska, who has a mild form of cerebral palsy. "My legs just felt like jelly. I believe I was in second place at both intervals. I just didn't have it at the end. I'm pretty disappointed about that."
Forest's gold was her first in the winter version of the Paralympics. She won gold at the 2000 and 2004 Summer Games in the sport of goalball, a three-on-three game for visually impaired athletes.
"I'm still competing in a team sport, because I couldn't have done it without Lindsay. We're a team," Forest said.
Lindsay Debou of Whistler, Forest's guide, has been working with the skier for the past two seasons.
Originally from Montreal, Forest took up skiing four years ago after suffering a series of concussions in goalball. But the dangers of traumatic head injuries are just as profound in skiing. Last season, she picked up a major concussion from a race in Spain and lost her limited sight for a period of 24 hours.
Forest has albinism and retinitis pigmentosa and has only four per cent of normal vision.
With two more races to go, it is her goal to finish on the podium in all five events in which she is entered.
