It is fair to say that Australia national team coach Holger Osieck has some tough decisions to make over the next few months.
Does he stick with the veterans that served the country well at the 2006 and 2010 World Cups - Australia reached the second round in 2006 and were narrowly edged out in the group stage four years later - or discard ageing legs in favor of the youngsters coming through?
On Wednesday Osieck has the opportunity to give those youngsters a run out in a friendly against South Korea in Hwaseong. With several European based players staying at home due to the arduous journey, the squad is mainly made up of domestic based players. Youngsters such as Tommy Oar, Matthew Spiranovic and the uncapped Tom Rogic have the chance to demonstrate their worth.
Australia's bid to reach the 2014 World Cup looked on the ropes when they trailed Zico's Iraq 1-0 in the last qualifier, but goals from Tim Cahill and Archie Thompson secured a priceless win. But the likes of Cahill, Thompson, Lucas Neill, Luke Wilkshire and Brett Emerton are well into their 30s now. Do they have the stomach for another World Cup?
Australia have drawn two and lost one of their opening four matches in the final qualifying group, suggesting that the old guard may struggle in Brazil. Osieck will be watching the less experienced players closely in this friendly to see if they have the capacity to step up for the second half of the qualifying series and stake a claim for a World Cup place, should the Socceroos qualify.
Osieck will undoubtedly take several veterans, such as Tim Cahill and Luke Wilkshire, to Brazil but may be well served by giving some of the most talented youngsters an extended run in the team now, with the World Cup still a year-and-a-half away.

BART prices are going up again.
BART will hold community meetings next month to get public feedback on what the agency calls "critical issues":
- fare hikes
- Clipper Card distribution for seniors and youth
- environmental justice policy
Proposed fare increases
BART policy since 2006 has been to adopt inflation-adjusted fare increases every two years. For this year, beginning in July, the transit agency is seeking public feedback on whether to continue with the same policy or try something else.
It is proposing three options:
- as in past years, a system-wide inflation-adjusted increase, which would be 1.4 percent this time
- a 10-cent increase for trips between San Francisco and the East Bay, with no other increases
- a 5-cent increase in fares system-wide
BART says the fare boost is needed in large part to help pay for replacing its aging fleet of 669 train cars, most of which date back to the agency's beginning of service 40 years ago.
The San Francisco Chronicle published an article about the proposal Saturday, and BART has detailed information on its Web site.
Clipper Card distribution for seniors and youth
Seniors and youth can use a discounted Clipper Card, meant to replace the discounted red and green BART tickets. BART wants public feedback on the best way to distribute them.
"BART wants to ensure that eligible BART customers can readily obtain discounted cards in their communities," the agency's notice says. "Your input is necessary to determine the adequacy of existing locations to obtain Clipper cards and to comment on what would be adequate for you and your community."
Environmental justice policy
BART also seeks public reaction to its draft Environmental Justice Policy, which BART says has three components:
- integrating Environmental Justice prinicples into BART's transportation planning
- evaluating impacts on minority and low-income populations
- enhancing public involvement activities to identify and address the needs of minority and low-income populations in making transportation decisions
The five community meetings will be held:
March 6, Tuesday, Oakland; 6:30–8 p.m., Joseph P. Bort MetroCenter Auditorium, 101 Eighth St.
March 12, Monday, Concord; 6:30–8 p.m., Monument Community Partnership,
1760 Clayton Rd.
March 14, Wednesday, San Francisco Mission District; 6:30–8 p.m., Mission High School Cafeteria, 3750 18th St.
March 15, Thursday, Daly City; 7– 8:30 p.m., War Memorial Community Center Activity Room, 6655 Mission St.
March 19, Monday, Richmond; 6–7:30 p.m., Richmond Main St., 1000 McDonald Ave. Suite C
A BART notice with descriptions of the topics and the meeting dates is also attached to this article.
Members of the public are invited also to provide feedback on the fare boost and Clipper Card distribution through a BART online survey.

Military families and retirees have opportunities in the South Sound over the next two days to talk with members of a federal commission charged with advising lawmakers on changes to the compensation offered to members of the Armed Forces.
The Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission plans to meet Thursday and Friday morning at the Eagles Pride clubhouse in DuPont.
An open town hall meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m., Thursday at French Theater on Joint Base Lewis-McChord.
The sessions at the clubhouse begin both days at 8:30 a.m. Senior military commanders are scheduled to address the commission first on Thursday, followed by a discussion incorporating family readiness groups.
On Friday, the commission plans to turn its attention to the Washington National Guard at 8:30 a.m. Another session on retention and recruiting is scheduled to follow at 10:30 a.m.
The commission is led by Alphonso Maldon Jr., a former assistant secretary of defense who now leads a Virginia-based consulting group and is a part owner of the Washington Nationals. Retired Gen. Peter Chiarelli and retired Navy Adm. Edmund Giambastiani Jr. also are members.
Congress called for compensation commission in last year's defense authorization bill. The commission is expected to release its recommendations next spring.

Pair injured in single vehicle wreck Sunday morning
- Last Updated on 07:55 AM 07/23/13
- BY The Gazette-Virginian
Two Halifax County young men were transported to Duke University Medical Center for treatment of their injuries following a single-vehicle wreck that occurred early Sunday morning on Highway 58, five-tenths of a mile west of State Route 836.
According to an accident report filed by Investigating Virginia State Trooper D. T. Spencer, 19-year-old Cody A. Spencer of Halifax and 20-year-old Reid T. Roller of Scottsburg were injured in the wreck that occurred at 3:19 a.m.
Spencer was driving a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 when he ran off the road to the left, overcorrected and then struck a tree, the accident report stated.
Neither Spencer nor his passenger, Roller, were wearing seatbelts at the time of the wreck, and Roller was partially ejected from the truck, the trooper said.
Spencer was listed in good condition, and Roller was listed in serious condition Monday afternoon, a Duke University Medical Center spokesperson said.
Charges are pending.
Damage to the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 was listed at $4,500, according to the accident report.

Write something innocuous in the first line. then leave some spaces between in and the subject matter. this should take care of accidentally triggering someone.
How and Why to Report a Post
The prednisone is making me MANIC, absolutely flipping higher then a kite MANIC. It is never good when something affects all of me and leaves no unaffected alter to maintain control.
Me, Alex and Ste synced up and manic? wow....thats a LOT of energy! But ALL of me ALL BLEEPING ALL OF ME that is enough energy to power the sun for a billion years.
I run the risk of this turning ugly. In the past I have programmed a fail safe into myselves to not allow mania to go on without check. What we did to level me out bring me down was to injure.
I do not want to do that this time as the reason for the mania is a temporary medication induced state.
but how this is taxing me to keep me in control and not do stupid stuff. I might come here and leave rambling manifestos of mania inspired drivel, already been blogging today too.
Five more days of this....I am going to try not to respond to posts in this state cause I will not be able to control Alex/Ste and wow you don't want there 2 cents on any subject when they are manic LOL.
just breath little one and hang on...its 5 more days...only two more days at the max dose then the taper starts.
Hang on, all of you. Thank you for trying to take steps to keep everyone here safe. I hope you're able to do the same for yourself.
~Christopher Robin to Pooh
Hang on, call the doc
yes everyone I have spoke with the Doc. He doesn't seem worried and said its normal. Doesn't feel normal to me. Its 8:30 am here and I am feeling normal and sane. The mania lasts till about 11pm then starts to fade. Its time to take those pills and I don't really want to.
I'm afraid.
************sexual abuse trigger below**************
It has never been confirmed but hypothesized by my T's and me that we think the reason Ste split into his own alters was that I was possibly drugged as a child while being raped.
He simply can not CAN NOT tolerate medication. It triggers him severely. Once any medication starts to affect me and make me feel off center he goes nuts.
With this blasted prednisone we are all affected and I can't offer him the support and comfort he needs. Yesterday on the drive home from work when we were winding down from the dose he started having flashbacks. Which triggered me cause some of the stuff he was burping up was new to me.
I will not delve into ANY prednisone induced memories due to the question of there validity.
today...my goal is to stay together and not loose any of me as we go sailing on this medication.
thank you all for the replys. I needed them yesterday. I kept telling myselves that we can come here and the board will tell me the truth.
~Christopher Robin to Pooh
sometimes I underestimate my alters. Some of them are soooo young I don't see them being viable protectors. Boots came up with something that has helped us all. I guess I forget they may be young, but they have already dealt with massively complex issues no child should ever have to face, and managed to come out victorious.
We are considering starting the taper tommorrow. The asprin helped more, my arm is just throbbing.
It's already tomorrow in Australia. - Charles Schultz
yesterday was bad, really bad. the irritability grew into firious anger and i came a nano second away from doing some bad urge related SIV. THankgoodness my hubby was home early form work and he helped keep me safe. I kinda wandered the house crying and raging. ((*&^%%$$&*( this med. its bad.
I started the taper today instead of tommorrow like I am supost to, I am taking myself off this med. two pills today and one tommorrow and then its done.
its making me manic today and fidgity, i cna deal with that. beats teh bloody hell out of what we experienced yesterday.
spoke with my work and updated them on my condition, and that I can' twork on site like this.
I never call into work. I ffeel flipping awseful and wired and stoned and drugged and out of control.
hubby here today and tommorrow to help me through the weaning off process. uuugh....
blogging last night helped to keep my mind focused and me out of trouble. I am suprized how much I enjoy blogging. It doesn't matter no one reads it, its just very relaxing.
sometimes my husband has really bad reactions to meds. for instance most poeple bblow up while on prednisone and he looses anywhere between 15-20 lbs. crazy.
i'm glad you're tapering off. feel better soon.
first day of taper survived. working from home was difficult but boss was unable to locate my co-worker who is able to do my job. Took me FOUR hours to do something that should have taken max of 3. Only logged three hours of the time due to this.
effects waning, but still feel very emotionally liable right now. Told boss I was not even going to try to attempt working onsite tomorrow per my schedule. I have not called in "sick" ever at this job. 14 years .....never.
that is how bad this is for me.
one more day.
one more day - one more pill....TCOS is a battered ragged group of overwhelmed and triggered and exhausted children who's main protector is reeling from all this. We are seeing a side of him we haven't seen in eons.
makes us want to go to war to protect him.
one more pill. one more day of unpleasent side effects that threaten to push us off the ledge.
then I will never NEVER allow teh medical profession to EVER perscibe this for me again.
I wish we had a cat for Ste to curl up with tonight. a warm purring ball of fuzz next to his head as he sleeps.
Boots is dragging us off to bed.
"maylonquigin" she calls to us. [go to bed>
night all
a few hours into the last taper doseage now
Starskee is unraveling itno very triggered flash backs. he is recalling when the abuse finally pushed him pas this coping levels and he himself split itno alters
huansband here to watch us and keep us safe. frantically cleaning house to use up this INSANE manic energy
we are now beyond our limts to keep our selves safe husband in charge
am I even making sense today? feel like im 6 feet fromt eh key board. scared. waht a freaking BAD medication this is
we are shocked tha t this level of side effects is considered ok. THIS IS OK? EVEN COMMON?
this is not okay not okayhang on little one last day - lowest dose - tommorrow no pills no pills run for the hills - you can do this hang on 10 more hours then the effects will be waning and you will be free
there is no lock on the attic door?
On another note though, it is doing wonders for my dog that is dying from cancer. She doesn't seem to be suffering and for that I am so thankful.

Column as submitted by Toms River Councilman Jeff Carr:
On October 23rd the Council met for the last time before Hurricane Sandy. Little did anyone know what we would be faced with in the weeks to follow. The meeting started, as it usually does, with honoring resolutions and presentations. Vaughn Fortuna was recognized for his achievement of obtaining the rank of Eagle Scout. There were several presentations focusing on Veterans Day including readings by the winning students in the Veterans Day essay contest. Several Police officers received promotions and were recognized along with their families.
Much of the remainder of the meeting involved conducting the general business of the Township. This included typical agenda items such as authorizing the refund of overpayment of taxes, authorizing raffle events and approving various resolutions for accepting and releasing performance guarantees for several projects within the Township. The complete agenda can be viewed on the Township website, www.TomsRiverTownship.com.
Just a few days following this meeting the East Coast was hit by Hurricane Sandy. From that moment on, we would all be tested. Our lives would never be the same. It took the efforts of many people including our Public Works staff, Police Department, and Emergency Management Office to accomplish what was done throughout the storm event. Since this article is to update our citizens on the Council, I will limit my discussions to just that area. However, the efforts of those involved should not go unnoticed.
Since the storm, there has been a hurricane meeting held every morning at Police Headquarters. The focus of this meeting was to coordinate the efforts of all of the departments and organizations involved. Updates from utility companies, the Governor's office, police, fire, Mayor's office, as well as many other areas of concern are discussed. Updates are issued as necessary. Due to the Public Open meetings Act, only three council members are able to attend each meeting. Attendance at the meetings is rotated so that every council member is given the opportunity to participate. Minutes of the meetings are circulated daily to keep everyone updated.
The next council meeting following the storm was a light agenda. We felt that it was important to act only on necessary business items and focus the meeting instead on the needs of the Township residents that were severely impacted by the storm. As elected officials is it our responsibility to govern the Township, with the best interest of the citizens always in mind. The Council members are all residents and taxpayers. We have family and friends that live within the Township. Our children are or have gone through the school system. The effects of Hurricane Sandy have impacted our lives as well as those we serve, our family and our friends. Councilman Whittmann suffered minor flood damage and damage to a vehicle from a fallen tree. Councilman Sevastakis lost his house to severe flooding and has relocated his family. My brother is living with me until he can go back to his home on the barrier island. Other Council members and Township staff were impacted as well.
Understanding the impact that the storm had on our community, the meeting began with an update on the storm progress. A presentation of the storm damage assessment was given by the Township Engineer. The Public Works Director updated the public on the efforts being made for the significant volume of trash removal. The Police Chief discussed the access and security measures being implemented on the barrier island. Representatives from FEMA and NJNG were also in attendance to present updates and answer questions from the public.
On Friday, November 16th, Council held an emergency meeting. Two significant resolutions were approved. The first resolution adopted was to approve a special appropriation of $35,000,000 for the recovery efforts of Super Storm Sandy. The emergency appropriation will be provided for in the budgets over the next five years in amount of $7,000,000 annually. The Township anticipates that a significant portion of the expenditures will be reimbursed through insurance claims and FEMA.
The second resolution adopted was to award emergency contracts for FEMA-reimbursed debris removal, a FEMA reimbursement coordinator and FEMA reimbursement monitoring services. The vendors under these contracts are approved by the State of New Jersey and/or the County of Ocean which eliminated the need to go out for bids which would have delayed the process.
As we begin the process of rebuilding and repairing, the Township and Council will be looking for ways to expedite the process and minimize the impact to homeowners and taxpayers. We anticipate that some portions of building permit fees may be waived. The building department will expedite permits and will be open longer hours. Policies are being reviewed and adopted to allow the rebuilding of homes and businesses in kind so as to eliminate the unnecessary burden of the typical review process. While our community, and certainly the barrier island communities, may never be the same, we will rebuild and we will be better. We will be faced with many challenges and tough decisions in the following months to come. We are committed to making the necessary decisions to allow our Township to begin the rebuilding process immediately and lessen the impacts to our residents, our taxpayers, families, friends and businesses. It will take time but, we will survive, we will be better, we will be stronger!
On behalf of the Mayor and Council, we wish you a very joyous holiday season. Don't forget to visit the Township website for additional information. As always, I would welcome your thoughts and comments. Please feel free to e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Jeff Carr

Its hard to quantify how much the Carolina Hurricanes have benefited from having Manny Malhotra this season.
Everyone knew he was very good on face-offs, and he has been terrific.
He brought years of experience and the type of savvy and grittiness to his game the Hurricanes needed.
And if there are any lingering questions about his damaged left eye, about his ability to play, he seemingly is answering them.
The Vancouver Canucks believed it was too dangerous for Malhotra to continue playing last season. They shut him down after nine games, ending his season and leaving his future in doubt.
Malhotra was back in Vancouver, back to face the Canucks on Monday at Rogers Arena with a new team, having quickly earned the respect of his teammates and coaches.
When defenseman Tim Gleason, one of the Canes two alternate captains, recently was sidelined with a lower-body injury, Malhotra was chosen to wear an A on his jersey. Defenseman Justin Faulk served as an alternate captain earlier in the season when Gleason was out with a concussion and Malhotra was not yet with the team, but Malhotra was given the A the second time.
We didnt have Manny back when (Faulk) was wearing it and it has nothing to do with Faulker, Canes coach Kirk Muller said. Theres pressure. People dont realize it but theres responsibility for guys, and we thought Faulker at the time was the right guy and he very well could be right now.
But you shouldnt read too much into it. Manny came on board and its not easy for a guy to jump into a room that quickly and kind of be a kind of spokesperson. I think the guys really embraced him and really wanted it, so we thought he would wear it and take some pressure off some guys and also show we appreciate the leadership he brought in.
In the five games Malhotra was an alternate captain, Faulk had a goal and four assists, his best offensive stretch of the season.
Its a special recognition to earn a letter in this league, Malhotra said. And to do it with a new team means a lot to me, the way the guys have embraced me and taken me into the fold. Ive been able to be myself and say what I want to say when I want to say it, that kind of thing.
The first few games I worked my way in and got a feel for whats going on. But for the most part I feel comfortable saying what I want to say. More so, saying what everybody else sees. Nothing revolutionary. Just speaking my mind.
Gleason returned to the lineup Friday against San Jose and again had the A. Malhotra had a typical Malhotra game 10-3 on face-offs, two blocked shots in almost 12 minutes of ice time as the Canes beat the Sharks 5-3 for a third straight win.
Malhotra once wore an A for the Canucks, but everything changed March 16, 2011, when he was hit in the left eye by a puck during a game against the Colorado Avalanche.
He had eye surgery immediately but returned for the Stanley Cup Final against the Boston Bruins. The 2011-12 season was a struggle, and the Canucks put Malhotra on injured reserve just nine games into last season.
Malhotra, who had other eye surgeries, wouldnt quit and call it a career. He signed a professional tryout contract with the Charlotte Checkers of the AHL, worked his way to a one-year contract with the Canes and played his first game for Carolina on Nov.1 against Tampa Bay.
Four days later, Malhotra beat the Philadelphia Flyers with a breakaway goal in overtime. To see the team hug on the ice after his goal was special.
Then to get an A?
I dont think it changes anything of who you are as a player, Malhotra said. If anything the expectations are higher that you try to lead by example and make sure your game is on before you try to talk to other guys about theirs.

If not confusing, then at least inefficient and kinda odd.
It was easier around 2004/2005 or so. There was the D100, which was the crop-sensor camera.
Then there was the D1 series, which continued on the F1/F2/F3/F4/F5 series of their pro-level bodies. The pro-level digital bodies were sometimes given sensor or feature upgrades mid-lifecycle, so they were given an X or H suffix (1Dx, 2Dh, etc.)
Then, they introduced the D70. Which was better than the D100. But later, they upgraded the D100 and continued its line into the D200/D300/D300s.
The D70 line continued to the D80 and D90. What's the next logical number? That's a problem.
On the lower end of things, Nikon started a lower-end camera below the D70 to compete with the digital Rebels. They started with a D50, added a lower D40, upped that with a D40X and then a D60. Where to go next? That's a problem.
So they seemingly pulled back and went with a new naming scheme: The low-end was renamed the D3000. Successors were the D3100 and now the D3200.
Above that, they went to the D5000, and now the D5100 with a rumored D5200 along the way.
The D70/80/90 also went to a four-digit naming convention with the current D7000.
The D100/200/300 is now the (outdated) 300s, which some people will say could go full-frame, others argue it will stay DX, but who knows at this point.
Then the full-frame below-"pro" body was announced with the D700, and now the D800 series.
And there's still the pro series. They just do a +1 with every new generation, and of course, sometimes a suffix.
So no, not confusing at all ... The naming madness is due to the fact that digital camera tech is ever-evloving, and cameras need to be updated a wee bit more often than their film counterparts did.

Good morning,
At 10 a.m. today, Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda will swear in 20 new police recruits at police headquarters. In December, 33 officers graduated from the police academy.
At 11 a.m., the mayor's CitiStat team will question members of the Community Services Department, which is led by Otis Barker and focuses on youth employment, senior services, summer reading initiatives and recreational programming, among other things. A video of the meeting will be posted on the city's web site.
And Council Member Darius G. Pridgen has introduced a measure of support for "Amanda Lynn's Law," which is sponsored by Sen. Mark Grisanti (S.1590) and is named after Amanda Wienckowski, whose death remains unsolved. Pridgen is also asking that the Erie County Medical Examiner's Office explain their autopsy findings in the case during a Council committee meeting.
Grisanti's law would strengthen penalties for offenders who improperly dispose of human remains for the purpose of concealing a death. Pridgen's measure is below.

Degenerative lumbosacral stenosis is a common cause of cauda equina syndrome and a relatively frequent neurologic disorder
in older dogs. If this condition is recognized early, treatment may help alleviate significant morbidity.
The terminology applied to clinical syndromes that affect the spinal cord segments, the spinal nerve roots, and the spinal
nerves that contribute to the sciatic nerve innervation of the perineum, urinary bladder, urethral and anal sphincters, and
tail can be confusing. Specifically, diseases that affect these structures can result in varying degrees of pelvic limb paresis
and urinary and fecal incontinence because they are components of the seventh lumbar (L7) spinal nerve, the first through
the third sacral (S1-S3) spinal nerves, and the caudal nerves.
The term lumbosacral disease encompasses any pathologic condition that affects the region of the spinal cord segments that contribute to the sciatic nerve
and sacral and caudal nerves. Cauda equina syndrome implies pathologic conditions that affect the last several pairs of spinal
nerve roots. Thus, lumbosacral disease and cauda equina syndrome are not specific conditions. Instead, they are the clinical
manifestations of a variety of diseases that result in dysfunction of either the lumbosacral spinal cord segments or spinal
nerve roots, respectively. Consequently, these two syndromes can result in similar clinical signs.
A detailed discussion of all these causes is beyond the scope of this article. Instead, this article concentrates on the anatomical
structures, clinical signs, diagnostic evaluation, therapeutic interventions, and prognosis involved in degenerative lumbosacral
To understand the neurologic signs and various diseases that affect the lumbosacral region of the nervous system, a strong
knowledge of the anatomy is needed.
Neural structures
The L4-S1 spinal cord segments are known as the lumbosacral intumescence since the spinal cord is grossly enlarged in this area because of the large collection of neuronal cell bodies in the gray
matter that contribute to pelvic limb innervation. As the spinal cord ends, it tapers. This anatomical tapering is called
the conus medullaris.
4 In dogs, the spinal cord terminates within the vertebral canal at about the level of the L6 vertebra, depending on the dog's
size.4 In large dogs, the end of the spinal cord tends to be more cranial than in smaller breeds.5 Consequently, the cell bodies that contribute to the L7 spinal nerve are approximately located within the spinal canal at
L4-L5 vertebrae.6 The cell bodies for the sacral and caudal nerve roots are located slightly more caudally. This disparity between the end
of the spinal cord and the vertebral canal is the result of the differential growth patterns of these two structures, with
the spinal cord ceasing development before the completion of vertebral column growth.4
Even though the spinal cord ends, the dura mater continues caudally as a dural sac, known as the lumbar cistern.
4 In dogs, the dural sac continues caudally for a variable distance, occasionally within the sacral vertebral canal. The ventral
(motor) and dorsal (sensory) nerve roots exit and enter the spinal cord, respectively, within the dura mater as intradural
nerve roots. Although they are known as extradural spinal nerve roots, they remain covered by meninges as they traverse the spinal canal to exit their respective intervertebral foramina.

Welcome to our site! At WTGBingo, we are here to give you the full scoop on all of the latest goings on in the online and mobile bingo world! There are so many bingo sites out there these days, that it can be hard to choose amongst them! Our objective writers will give you an unbiased opinion of what they think of the sites we feature and as they are real life bingo fans themselves, you can rest assured they know what they are talking about. Importance on Finding New Bingo Sites There are loads of new bingo sites 2014 and it's important for you to explore a little so you can find the best fit for you! There are tonnes of different software providers, features and games out there for you to test out and if you are lucky you can also bag yourself a cheeky no deposit bonus so you can check it out for free. Not only that, but there is all kinds of new bingo variations at newly developed bingo operators that are definitely fresh and exciting. The bingo world is your oyster!
Different Bingo Bonuses
You will be thrown all kinds of bonuses when you first join new bingo sites, so we thought we would give you the lowdown on what to expect! First up is a free no deposit bonus which you can get after simply registering with the brand. Then there is the welcome bonus, which is generally the largest bonus you will get from any operator. They can vary from a 100% treat which will double your first deposit or they can go up to a whopping 500% at some sites.
There are a lot of sites out there that offer free bingo. First thing to look out for is whether or not you need to be a funded member or not to enjoy this perk. In terms of winning real cash from playing for free, this varies from site to site. Often you will find that the prize is in bonus funds which isn't withdrawable cash, so you need to continue to play it on the site and other time it can be real money. You generally have to meet some wagering requirements before withdrawing winnings.
Elf Bingo
This brand is part of the 15 Network and has a lot to offer. They will kick things off with a 200% welcome bonus, giving you £30 to spend on a deposit of a tenner and allow you to spin the wheel for a guaranteed prize of up to £2,500! You can enjoy free bingo, team bingo and you will even get the chance to get a takeaway for free every night! There are huge jackpots and great seasonal offers to sink your teeth into.
Bingo Hollywood

This brand has huge guaranteed jackpots including a Big £10K that plays every single month! There are also regularly updated promotions for you to enjoy.
Social Bingo
If you have a Facebook page (which most of us do!) you may have noticed that there has been a huge increase in the number of bingo apps available on this social media channel. You can take your pick from the likes of Bingo Blitz and Bingo Bash if you want to play for free with a virtual currency or there are now real money bingo apps where you can win real cash prizes. It definitely appeals to bingo players who are more interested in the social aspect of the game and aren't looking to spend huge amounts of cash. These apps are a little different from what you would normally find at online bingo sites as you can unlock venues and games, purchase boosts to make you more likely to win and more. On some apps you will fnd slots as well as bingo, so there is still variety to be enjoyed.
Mobile Bingo
Mobile bingo is just that, it allows you to play wherever you are! You can enjoy pretty much everything you can on desktop sites and of course you can still win big money prizes! There are sites that offer bingo apps such as Wink Bingo and there are others who developed their brand on a browser friendly platform such as Glossy Bingo. Of course the main advantage is the convenience factor but there does tend to be a slightly smaller gaming selection on mobile friendly bingo sites. They have become increasingly popular and soon – it will be difficult for a brand who isn't available on mobile to keep up. There are also brands that are optimised solely for mobile such as Moobile Games and mFortune which gives you an idea as to how well this concept has gone down with bingo fans.

Downtown Andover was overrun with colorful costumed characters well in advance of Halloween this year.
The Andover High School girls' varsity and junior varsity soccer teams held their third annual Amazing Scavenger Hunt last Thursday afternoon. More than 40 soccer players formed eight teams and invaded downtown Andover dressed in wild costumes in search of the 12 destinations to conquer.
Each team had to solve 12 clues in order to find the destinations or items and take a fun or interesting team photo at the spot as proof before moving on. The winner — the team with the most points — will be announced at the soccer banquet in November.
The event is held as a mid-season friendly competition among the players as they get ready for the final weeks of games and tournament action.

C's ink Randolph
The Celtics signed power forward Shavlik Randolph to a 10 day contract on Friday.
The 6'10" Randolph spent last year's lockout shortened season playing in China. He has appeared in 95 NBA games, averaging 2.4 points and 2.5 rebounds per game with the Miami Heat, Philadelphia 76ers and Portland Trailblazers.
Randolph is the third player the Celtics have signed over the last few weeks coming out of the Chinese League. Terrance Williams and DJ White were also brought in by the Celtics after their Chinese contracts expired.
The Celtics upped the ante with Williams on Friday turning a 10 day contract into a two year deal with the team. Fab Mello was assigned to the Developmental League to make room for Randolph.
On the Air
Manchester Essex swimmer/diver Alex Walder will appear on North Shore 104.9's North Shore Sports Desk this morning (8:00-9:00 a.m.) as the North Shore Student Athlete of the Week.
Walder was also named a Cape Ann League All Star this week.
Garrard to Jets
It looks like the New York Jets will be bringing in a quarterback to compete for the starting job with Mark Sanchez. The team will reportedly sign veteran David Garrard .
Garrard, who has not appeared in a NFL game since 2010, is most known for his time with the Jacksonville Jaguars. He spent last season in Miami battling injuries. The 35 year old Garrard will reportedly be in open competition with Sanchez, who had an extremely disappointing 2012 season.

Police Chief Ray Schultz says an Albuquerque police officer is in good condition after being shot and rushed to emergency surgery.
Schultz and Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry said they both visited the wounded officer Monday morning and he appeared in "good spirits."
Authorities say the officer, whose name has not been released, was shot in the lower back. The shooting occurred around midnight Sunday as officers who responded to a report of an alleged assault were approached by other people who wanted to report a theft.
Schultz says officers were talking to people and taking reports when they heard gunshots and took cover.
Schultz says the wounded officer did feel numbness but seems to be recovering.
No arrests have been made.

ST. LOUIS -- Click below for my final podcast after a wild and memorable seven-game World Series capped by the Cardinals' 6-2 win Friday over Texas.
Mike Harrington on Game Seven
And once you're done listening to me, here are some postgame thoughts from the field, clubhouse and interview room:
MVP David Freese: "I've tried to soak in this whole postseason as much as I can because you never know if it's your last attempt at a title. It's going to take me a little bit, I think, to realize what we've accomplished. And the funny thing is if we go down tonight and we're NL champs, we still did a ton that nobody thought that we could accomplish. And then just to win it is an incredible feeling.
Freese on his two-run double in the first: "I took a good approach in that at-bat, stuck with it and got the head of the bat out there and put it in the gap. That was a big turning point that kind of started the game over and got it back to even."
Albert Pujols: "This is what you play for. It doesn't matter the numbers, it doesn't matter the records, it doesn't matter the money that you make; what matters is to raise that trophy and to be able to bring that smile to the city of St. Louis, and not just the city of St. Louis but all our fans around the world."
Pujols on his impending free agency: "Listen, I'm going to be prayerful about it. Whatever decision I make hopefully is the best decision I make for my family and the fans and everybody. Right now I am just going to enjoy the moment and just celebrate with the guys and pretty much just thank that my teammates that helped me out to accomplish another World Championship, because at the end of your career, those are the sweeter moments that you take.
"And there's a lot of tough times that we went through this year and a lot of sweet moments. And the way that we did it is incredible. You know, there's not too many teams in the game that done it like that. I'm just blessed to be part of that. But to talk about my contract right now, that's the last thing that I'm thinking about. I'm just kind of letting everything come in and the game that we won today."
Chris Carpenter: "It was huge for me to get the ball in this game. I just wanted to give my guys a chance, whether it was one inning, two innings, four, whatever. It didn't matter."
Lance Berkman: "All the emotions you have get bottled up over seven games. Your stomach never settles down and now it's such a rush. It's an emotional time and I'm looking forward to finally sitting down. You can't imagine the exhiliration of finally winning it, especially how we did fighting the whole postseason."
Tony La Russa: "It's just typical of our club. They really embrace something that is legitimate, and they embrace the fact but now it's time to think about Game Six, and that's part of this historic run. I mean, it's hard to explain how we made it happen except the club has great guts. Really we have more talent than people think, but we have great guts."

For a woman who spent decades raising six children – two boys and three girls survive - and making every meaningful decision in her life, it doesn't make sense for her to give up that independence without a fight.
Sure, Mom was slipping and had been for years. But she was still the person who ran her family. There can be challenges, but caring for her now is among the greatest blessings I could have been given. These years will be important to me forever, and I don't plan to come up short for her.
There is always the delicate balance between deciding what's best for your mom and dad, and perhaps confusing that with the path that's easier for you. The two things might not be the same. Always put yourself in their place and ask yourself how you would react. Someday that might not be just an academic exercise.
Carefully decide what must be done in their interest, and why. Share your thoughts with them as much as you can. That will be an evolution for you and them.
Just because she now suffers from dementia, do not expect her too become some soft, pliant victim. She still will fight for herself. She's your mom, isn't she?
With my Mom, there was no doubt that resentment was part of the process. We had to take my mother's car away from her, and she was upset about it for years.
One important thing: Mom didn't want to be told what to do. Never did. Never will, I would guess. She wanted to be asked and still does. Sound familiar?
Sometimes the caregivers we have brought to help her and us will direct my Mom's activities for the day, not giving her a choice, and she balks at that.
Understand that my Mom is not able to make some decisions for herself, but she wants to have a say. Let her. You want to be smart on her behalf, but there's no good in becoming a dictator.
Usually she'll go along with whatever I say as long as I say it respectfully.
I'd say that's what makes her Mom.
Part 5 next: Siblings, little signs and what's next.

The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — Just a week before Election Day, City of Tonawanda candidates presented their platforms to voters Tuesday night at a debate hosted by the Tonawanda News and the Chamber of Commerce of the Tonawandas.
Mayoral, council and Erie County Legislature candidates faced off on issues such as the Little League Drive development, flooding problems, downtown development and Tonawanda Coke's criminal actions.
With managing editor Eric Duvall serving as moderator, the 12 candidates offered a choice for voters, most notably on the proposed housing project contract — an issue that clearly broke along party lines.
The contract for the development, which has not yet been approved by the council, specifies a sale price of $192,000 for the 16.94 acres of land. Natale, the set purchaser, will pay for the infrastructure costs, valued at about $1.8 million, and at the developer's request, the 53 homes will fall under the state's condominium status. As a result, the homes will be assessed at about 65 percent of their construction value.
Put simply, homeowners whose properties cost $250,000 to buy will pay taxes as if the home was worth $162,500.
All the local Democratic candidates said they oppose the project as proposed. Although mayoral candidate Rick Davis said that he supported the development when he was on the council, he said Tuesday that he takes issue with the tax abatement.
"The original request for proposals indicated that the developer would bear the cost of the infrastructure ... and that a homeowners association was not preferred," he said.
The Democratic council candidates — Paul Brunner in the First Ward, Jackie Smilinich in the Second Ward, Richard Slisz in the Third Ward and Jenna Koch in the Fourth Ward — all echoed his statements. Brunner said that the residents in the development who will receive a tax abatement will still receive many services from the city.
Slisz agreed with Brunner and said the project should be sent back out to bid, while Smilinich said she doesn't think the city's downtown area is in a position to attract home buyers to the property. Koch pointed out that the sale price is only a third of three assessments done in the 2000s. A more recent study done last year valued the land at $255,000.
But on the Republican side, Mayor Ron Pilozzi said that he completed his job successfully to negotiate a contract with Natale that was responsive to the council's requests. He, along with his Republican cohorts, said the project will not cost the city anything, and that the homeowners association will be responsible for the upkeep of the property for years to come.
"We do not have to bond for this project at all," Pilozzi said. "When things need to be replaced, that's on their dime, not ours."
Republican council candidates Charles Gilbert in the First Ward, Jon Juliano in the Second Ward, John Hall in the Third Ward and Brian Jopp in the Fourth Ward agreed.
Gilbert said the company's bid was the best the city received, and he, along with the other Republicans, argued that the project is bringing in tax revenue without any cost to Tonawanda.
"I know the tax break is frustrating to a lot of people, but we are paying zero dollars for the infrastructure work," Juliano said.
Hall did note that he is concerned about the neighbors near the property, and said that the city should be responsive to their needs.
Here's a look at where the candidates stand on other issues:
Mayoral candidates
Davis, who lost to Pilozzi in 2009 by just 150 votes, has taken issue with the city's investment in the Niawanda Park Pavilion, a project the mayor spearheaded. While Pilozzi said the project was a success and that the debt service was paid off within just four months, Davis said the build shouldn't have been a priority.
"I equate it to putting an underground pool in your backyard when your foundation is crumbling," he said.
Davis said that the maintenance and utility costs need to be taken into account, and that the city needs a marketing plan for the structure to increase rentals during the week.
But Pilozzi argued it has been rented out 182 times until the end of 2013, and that the building serves as an asset to attract people to the city.
"It has been a big success," he said.
First Ward
Brunner and Gilbert discussed ongoing flooding issues in the First Ward, which, per the sewer revamping plan, won't be completely corrected until 2015. Work is first taking place near Spaulding Fiber and the Little League Drive property to allow for the developments to take place.
"2015 was always the target," Gilbert said. "Businesses create more sewage than a home."
In response, Brunner said his basement flooded multiple times this summer and argued that the problem should be corrected.
"I'm definitely not alone," he said. "This never happened before. Who's been holding down the fort?"
Second Ward
Two newcomers, Smilinich and Juliano, debated People Inc.'s proposal to develop the former Highland Elementary School into 38 multi-use, low-income apartments. The city zoning board has denied a variance request from the organization.
Smilinich argued that a traffic study should be completed to ensure that nearby residents' quality of life isn't impacted.
"There are too many residents having to put up with it," she said.
But Juliano said that the property is not providing anything to the city, and that the construction and redevelopment will benefit the city.
"The grass and trees will be maintained, and it will bring more people to the city, which is the goal. I'm for the project," he said.
Third Ward
The district has recently sold another vacant school, Central, despite an effort to develop the building into a community center.
"We could have made it into one of the best community buildings in the area," Slisz, the incumbent, said, noting that Tonawanda currently does not have a center for the residents.
But Hall said that the building needed too many repairs, including plumbing work, to be created into a center.
"It's not handicapped accessible and there are no elevators," he said. "To complete that construction on a building so old would be very expensive."
Fourth Ward
Both Jopp and Koch said the city should be pressing Tonawanda Coke to stay in line with environmental regulations.
"We need to be staying on them," Jopp said.
Koch agreed and said the potential fines from the sentencing of the corporation should go back to local residents.
"These residents need peace of mind that their health isn't going to be harmed by Tonawanda Coke," she said.
Erie County Legislature
Republican Incumbent Kevin Hardwick and Democrat Bill Conrad are facing off for the Erie County Legislature's fourth district seat. Hardwick noted that during his watch, there have been no tax increases and the body has begun working together again. In response, Conrad said the legislature is in need of new, fresh ideas, and that the body should look more closely at the budget to eliminate wasted resources.
The candidates were also questioned about a lawsuit, in which Republicans attempted to get Conrad tossed off the ballot on an election law technicality. Conrad called the suit "frivolous," and noted that judges decided that a postal worker mis-stamped the date on the late paperwork.
"They didn't want opposition," Conrad said.
But Hardwick argued that the challenge is part of the race, and said he has accepted the ruling and moved on.

Cumberland Times-News
KEYSER W.Va. — The overriding topic of the Mineral County School Board meeting Tuesday was the approval of the plans for the construction of Keyser Primary School. The beginning stages of planning are set to start in March or April, but Skip Hackworth, superintendent of the Mineral County schools , hopes to start as soon as next month.
"We learned a lot of lessons when we built Keyser High. We don't want to rush (its construction)," said Hackworth.
In order to have it ready for the fall of 2013 and to be as thorough as possible, the planning would need to begin in January or February, which would normally take two months. The designing and development would each take approximately three months and after that, the bidding and construction process has an estimated 14 month completion. Which sets it opening just in time for fall of 2013.
"I personally want to thank Superintendent Hackworth for how hard that he worked" said Terry LaRue, board member, "He didn't take no for an answer."
LaRue's comment sparked a unanimous agreement of the board members, praising Hackworth's hard work and persistence, despite being turned down several times from the School Building Authority.
"It's like a dream come true. It's something we've been working on for nine years," said Mary Aronhalt, vice president.
According to Hackworth, the Keyser Primary Middle School is currently at 138 percent capacity. That figure is found through a formula that involves giving each student a certain number of square feet and comparing it against the square footage of the school.
The new primary school would hold 650 students and the plans include a cafeteria, gymnasium and possibly a media center. The total cost of the proposed school is estimated at just over $13.9 million and was designed by the architecural firm Blackwood Associates Inc.
Hackworth opened the meeting with announcing five teachers and one nurse in Mineral County schools have been certified from the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. Heidi Bradshaw, Fountain Primary; Janet Cosner, Frankfort High; Beth Knotts, Keyser Primary-Middle; Janey Moore, Elk Garden; and Kerri Staggers, Keyser Primary-Middle; and Roberta Jones, nurse at New Creek Primary and Keyser Head Start were all given the prestigious award that usually takes up to two years to complete and is earned through performance-based assesments.
"It's wonderful and I think it's going to help me as a teacher," said Moore, reading specialist at Elk Garden. "We had to complete four projects. Two were projects where you had to video yourself and then evaluate yourself. There was a writing assesment and we had to document our accomplishments outside of the classroom."
Moore also had to complete a test comprised of essay questions in her field of language arts and reading.

The images below were shot on a walk through the neighborhood downtown using a Holga with expired, cross-processed Kodak E160T. After last week's interview questions, I've been thinking a lot about how music and photography relate. Both the process, and the finished product. What soundtrack do you hear when you look at your photos? While downtown I bought the new Neko Case CD Middle Cyclone. Love all of her previous studio albums. Not sure about this one yet. Also picked up a Sublime Frequencies release by Syrian music legend Omar Souleyman that is absolutely brilliant.
While trying to sort out connections between the sound and images, I ran across a post on the WFMU blog called Captain Beefheart's 10 Commandments of Guitar Playing, which contains gems such as:
5. If you're guilty of thinking, you're out
If your brain is part of the process, you're missing it. You should play like a drowning man, struggling to reach shore. If you can trap that feeling, then you have something that is fur bearing.

This week, Patch reported on a variety of business developments across northern and central Suffolk County. Here are the highlights.
White Castle Closes Mt. Sinai Location; Chain Considers Returning to the Area
After about 10 years of serving its patented sliders in Mt. Sinai, White Castle has ceased operations at its location on Route 25A after the lease expired. Jamie Richardson, vice president of the famous chain, explained that their situation at that location just wasn't working out. "It's always regretful when we can no longer continue to operate in a space," Richardson said. "As we looked at the performance and how we were doing in terms of our sales there, despite our best efforts we couldn't get it to the point where it made sense to re-up for more time at that specific site." Richardson said that all employees were offered a position at one of the other locations. The company is still open to returning to the area at another location.
Smithtown Resident Opens Car Dealership in St. James
One of your neighbors has decided to keep his new business local and take over a vacant St. James storefront with the opening of Certified HQ, a used car dealership on Middle Country Road. The dealership opened Saturday. Brian Smith, owner of the dealership and a Smithtown resident, started in the car sales industry when he was 13 years old, washing cars on the lot at his dad's dealership Mark Motors in West Islip. After his dad retired and moved Smith looked to re-open his dealership, but ultimately decided to stay local.
LA Fitness Coming to Commack
Commack residents will soon have another option of where to work out over the upcoming winter months. LA Fitness has opened a preview center for its new Commack location, taking over the former Borders in the King Kullen Plaza off Veterans Memorial Highway. Renovations have been underway for months, leaving local residents guessing as to what was coming.
Comsewogue Grad Wants to Help Young Professionals Clean Up Their Act Online
When you grow up immersed in the digital world, you tend not to worry about the trail you're leaving behind in the way of status messages and pictures posted online; a trail that anybody can find with a few quick Google searches. When Evan Tousey, 25, was in Comsewogue High School (he graduated in 2007) or at Stony Brook University, he says he didn't think about what his social profile would look like to potential employers or college administrators, especially in an environment of heightened competition for open slots. At one time or another he knows he put a picture or status update on his Facebook page that in hindsight does not show him in the most professional manner. Tousey – who grew up in Port Jefferson Station and now lives in Mt. Sinai – says that a young person pounding the pavement for the first time shouldn't be held back by a negative profile on the Internet. "Employers want applicants to be squeaky clean," he said. That's why he dreamed up his new company: Desocialize Me.
New Tapas Restaurant Coming to St. James
With the popular St. James restaurant O's Food and Wine Bar closing, Five.Five2 will be moving in. The new eatery will take over the 552 Route 25A location, and according to an employee, should be open by the end of October. Another employee setting up the restaurant Thursday said it will serve an international tapas cuisine. The owner of Five.Five2 was not available for comment.

What happens when teams take away our deep passing game ?? you are witnessing it now and we are awful on offense. Want another year of the same offense. ?
every team in the league for the past 40 years or so has scripted the first 15
it has proven to be a very strategic way to get a feel for how defenses will react to certain formations
but somehow when Gilbride does it ...it's no good?
...if anything it proves that this offense couldn't execute a death row inmate
So, all those who want KG fired, who do you have in mind as his replacement? What makes them better/more qualified than a man who consistently runs a top ten offense and has won 2 SBs?
What "creative" play do you want to see on 3rd and 1? The Flea-flicker?
the "realist" is a lazy piece of crap that works on his tan while sipping a margarita,
the pessimist changes the sails while complaining about the lazy piece of crap,
and the optimist changes the sails while hoping the lazy piece of crap will start to do his share of the work.

The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — The classic 1961 movie, "The Hustler," is about two pool sharks portrayed by Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason.
Watching that movie always brings back memories of my misspent youth and the many hours I hung out in the pool hall in my hometown.
Mom didn't approve and dad worked out of town.
Kids really weren't allowed but the owner would let us make a few bucks in tips by running for cigarettes, Tums, and bottles in brown paper bags.
Those "supplies" were needed by the shooters who gambled day and night.
One of the first lessons you learn in racking pool balls is to keep your fingers out of the way when you remove the rack. Knuckles are no match for a speeding cue ball driven by a grown man trying to sink all of the balls on the break.
And you better make sure you rack the balls tightly together so they break apart in all directions. A "loose" rack could get you rapped on the head with a cue stick instead of a 50-cent tip.
Never let the players run out of chalk for the tips of the cue sticks and always keep the powder ready for those with sweaty hands.
I'll never forget the first time I saw a would-be "hustler" walk into that pool hall with a custom-made, take-apart cue stick in a leather case.
That was before the movie came out but we'd heard stories of big city pool rooms with their professional pool sharks — gamblers who could run the table and empty your wallet with smile.
But we had some local guys who knew every bump and seam on those tables, exactly which cue stick to take off the wall and who to have rack the balls.
By the time that dude staggered out of our pool hall that night, he left behind about $300 in cash, his fancy cue stick and case, and his daddy's pocket watch.
At the time, I was proud of the "good ole boys" from home who wouldn't or couldn't hold a regular job but seemed to live off their gambling winnings.
Sadly, I now can recall arguments, fights, broken friendships, thefts, divorces and even a shooting death tied to things said and done in that pool hall.
I came to realize that gambling and booze don't mix and that a country pool hall is exactly the wrong place to be when a fight breaks out.

Seven up for Stags
11:12pm Tuesday 5th February 2013 in Sport By Wendy Gee, Non-league football reporter
AFC TOTTON celebrated a magnificent seventh straight home league win at the Testwood Stadium tonight, humbling south coast rivals Weymouth 5-2 in the Southern Premier Division.
Ex-Salisbury striker Ben Joyce twice fired the Terras into a first-half lead, but the Stags, who had replied through Richard Gillespie, went goal crazy after the break.
Ryan Hill levelled matters just after the hour with a viciously struck free-kick before substitute Luke Whitley scored with a screaming cross-shot from the right touchline.
Gillespie played the ball inside for James Coutts to tuck home Totton's fourth and Baily Cargill completed the rout by shooting across the 'keeper from ten yards.
The Stags are up to seventh, level on points with sixth-placed Gosport who won 2-1 at Barwell (Woodward, Smith).

A riveting, sharply observed and thoroughly modern police procedural, Dead to Me features a stellar but unlikely female detective team, and is perfect for fans of Tess Gerritsen and Deborah Crombie
Detective Constable Janet Scott is subtle and reliable, a diplomatic thinker with a wry sense of humor. She's put in the time and seen it all, but has no desire for the boss's job—she loves her own too much. Rachel Bailey couldn't be more different—she's energetic, impulsive, and ambitious, and has just been transferred to the Manchester murder squad. Their commander thinks Rachel's intuition could make her a great cop, but has reservations about her shoot-first-think-later approach, so she partners her with Janet. At first, the match seems to have been made somewhere considerably lower than heaven, but when a teenage girl is found brutally murdered, stabbed to death in her squalid flat on a North Manchester housing estate, both detectives realize they must work together to stop a vicious killer. But the case quickly becomes more complicated than it seems, fraught with dangers neither woman could see coming. Eager to make her mark, Rachel's reckless pursuit of the truth could threaten her future on the squad. And an unexpected turn in the investigation forces Janet to face personal demons. No matter the cost, both must race to stop a vicious killer before it's too late in this riveting novel from award-winning author Cath Staincliffe.

Praise for Cath Staincliffe and Dead to Me
"This is more than just a murder mystery; these characters are well developed, idiosyncratic, and likeable, and that extends to their families and coworkers as well. Most reminiscient of television's Cagney and Lacy series, the novel… should appeal to readers who enjoy female buddy books like Tess Gerritsen's Rizzoli and Isles series and Lisa Scottoline's Rosato & Associates legal thrillers." –Booklist, starred review
"A superb book, well crafted, well written." – Books Monthly (UK), Editor's Choice
"An excellent read." --The Book Jotter
"One of the best crime books I have read this year.' --Mystery People
"No frills or gimmicks, just solid characters, well thought out plot and intelligent writing." --CrimeSquad
"Part of the appeal of these characters is their empathy with the victim and their determination, almost desperation, to catch the perpetrator." --Eurocime
"This is a well-written book with characters that draw you in, and a murder plot that keeps you reading." –Shots magazine
"The characters are incredibly well crafted and robust, the difficulties balancing a functional home life with the emotional demands of the job are very well portrayed." -- Bookgeeks (UK)

Sweden hadnt won a World Junior championship since 1981, so when Blackhawks prospect and Team Sweden alternate captain Joakim Nordstrom bit into his gold medal in Calgary on the evening of Jan. 5, 2012, it marked the end of an amazing journey, as he describes it, for a national program that has rebuilt itself over the last decade. But for Nordstrom and other Swedish prospects hoping to find success across the Atlantic, the journey is only beginning.
Nordstrom, 20, was the Blackhawks third-round draft pick in 2010 and just completed his first season in the Swedish Elite League, registering three goals and three assists in 47 appearances for AIK. The scoring numbers arent pretty, but they are befitting a young, mobile shutdown specialist who is not done honing his offensive talent.
Im a pretty good skater, with a good passing game, Nordstrom explains. But I need to shoot the puck more often.
As a second-year veteran of Blackhawks Prospect Camp, Nordstrom is relishing the opportunity to showcase his two-way abilities, forming Team Bs top line alongside 2011 first-round draft pick Phillip Danault and Swiss free-agent invitee Denis Hollenstein.
We had pretty good chemistry, and we always supported each other, Nordstrom says. We created a lot of dangerous opportunities, so it felt pretty good.
Blackhawks fans dont get many opportunities to follow European prospects, especially if they play overseas, so chicagoblackhawks.com asked Blackhawks Head European Amateur Scout Niklas Blomgren to evaluate how the clubs three Swedish prospects fared in 2011-12.
Joakim Nordstrom, C (AIK, SEL)
"Nordstrom had a good season where he went from more of an extra center in 2010-11 to a regular player in the Swedish Elite League. That, in combination with winning a gold medal at [World Juniors], made his last season a good one. He keeps on getting stronger and getting more experience and this year [hell] take on even more responsibilities for AIK."
Klas Dahlbeck, D (Linkoping, SEL)
"Dahlbeck played his second full season in the Swedish Elite League and got very good minutes along former Chicago player Magnus Johansson, as well as former NHLer Niclas Havelid. Playing with older, accomplished players helped him gain confidence and learn what it takes to be successful. Also, playing with the men's national team at the highest stage of European hockey during the November and February breaks showed that he can play at a very high level."
Johan Mattsson, G (Sudbury, OHL)
"Mattsson played in Sudbury and had a bit of an up-and-down year. He was plagued by the hip that he had surgery on this past May, and he now needs to regain the form and consistency that made him a successful player in 2010-11."
Nordstrom and fellow countryman Klas Dahlbeck both signed entry-level contracts with the Blackhawks last month, and along with goalie prospect Johan Mattsson, they form the next wave of emerging Swedish talent. In a country with a robust passion for the game, it seems like everyone has a significant tie to someone else in hockeya neighbor, a friend, a mentorand Nordstrom is no exception to the rule.
