Israel has accused the Islamist movement Hamas and other Palestinian militants who have fired hundreds of rockets at its territory of deliberately placing military installations in densely-populated Gaza in order to use civilians as human shields.

|Clifford M. Lunke, 90
|Written by TRF Times
Alexandria - Clifford Myron Lunke, formerly of Thief River Falls, died on Monday, March 19, 2012 at Knute Nelson in Alexandria at the age of 90.
A funeral service was held on Friday, March 23 at First Lutheran Church in Alexandria, with Rev. Marilee Bergerson officiating.
Clifford Myron Lunke was born on March 28, 1921 in Thief River Falls, MN to Hilmer and Carrie (Anderson) Lunke. He graduated from Thief River Falls High School and then attended Bemidji State College where he received a pilot license. He enlisted in the United States Air Force and served for three years during WW II.
Cliff was united in marriage to Gudrun (Goodie) Solheim in February of 1942 in Glendale, CA. Cliff worked at Lockheed Aircraft for five years as a foreman of final assembly. The couple moved back to Thief River Falls in 1946 and Cliff became co-owner of a John Deere retail dealership. In 1956 Cliff sold his share of the dealership and went into a series of management positions with John Deere. He retired in 1984 from John Deere after 40 years of a career he thoroughly enjoyed. In 1985, the couple moved to Alexandria for their retirement years.
Cliff enjoyed staying busy with volunteering with church, Kiwanis (held the office of Lieutenant Governor), the Senior Center (former past president), and member of the Golden K's. He also enjoyed fishing, dancing and reading. Cliff enjoyed life and the people he became in contact with, and most importantly Cliff's two sons were a great joy to him.
Cliff died on Monday, March 19, 2012 at Knute Nelson in Alexandria at the age of 90. He is survived by his two sons, Scott of Gettysburg, SD and Gene of Bertha, MN; brother, Don (Joyce) Lunke of Park Rapids, and Harley Lunke of Laguna Woods, CA; and sister, Joyce (Herb) Claffy of Milaca; many nieces and nephews; and care giver Diana Anderson of Alexandria. He is preceded in death by his parents, Hilmer and Carrie; and wife, Goodie.
A funeral service was held on Friday, March 23, 2012 at First Lutheran Church in Alexandria with Reverend Marilee Bergerson officiating. Music was provided by organist, Randy Morken. Interment was in Kinkead Cemetery in Alexandria. Military Honors were provided by the Alexandria American Legion Post 87, Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 936 and the Minnesota National Honor Guard. Casket bearers were Greg Vedders, Phil Vedders, Mark Claffy, Ralph Biniek, Brent Lunke, Wayne Lunke, and Ron Lunke.
Memorials are preferred to the Alexandria Golden K's.
Arrangements are with the Anderson Funeral Home in Alexandria.

Beavers in the 'burbs? Many people think of beavers as wilderness animals. They do live in wilderness areas, but also seem comfortably at home in northern Virginia.
Two places in the Mount Vernon-Lee area where you might see beavers are Huntley Meadows Park and the Dyke Marsh Wildlife Preserve.
Recently, beavers have been very visible in Huntley Meadows Park, said Park Manager Kevin Munroe. "This may be best time to see them because they've decided to build at the beginning of the boardwalk. They are very cooperative at the moment," he chuckled.
Huntley Meadows Park
In 1977, beavers built a dam across Barnyard Run in the park which created a swamp or non-tidal wetland and flooded the forest. Huntley has at least three lodges, probably more, and three or four major dams, said Munroe. There are 12 to 24 smaller check dams as well, beaver dams that check or stop flowing water.
Beavers create deep water habitat to escape from their predators, Munroe explained recently. In 1993, the beavers stopped maintaining the dam in the central or main wetland and moved to the lower part of the park, but they have never left Huntley Meadows for more than six months. The last survey of beavers in the early 1990s found around 20 to 25 beavers in the park.
Singing their praises, Munroe remarked: "Beavers have more effect on their habitat than almost any other animal outside of humans. Beavers have a very positive effect on watersheds because they create wetlands that provide wildlife habitat, consolidate silt and allow for deep pools during both winter and summer. They reduce erosion by slowing down the water."
Dyke Marsh
Beavers live in the Dyke Marsh Wildlife Preserve, a freshwater, tidal wetland. Still, no one knows how many are there. Freshly-chewed trees are evidence of beaver activity.
The large cottonwood on the island opposite the boat mooring has been girdled by beavers. The National Park Service has put chicken wire around this "iconic" tree to protect it from being destroyed, but typically, NPS lets nature take its course.
Beavers have also built a dam and lodge in Dyke Marsh west of the Mount Vernon Parkway, easily viewed from River Towers.
"The lodge is right where it's been for a few years and it looks like the beavers are rebuilding their dam again," said River Towers resident Mary Jo Detweiler. "There are numerous mallards swimming in it and quacking happily."
Along the shoreline near the Belle Haven Marina mooring area is a strip of beach known by many Dyke Marsh fans as Dead Beaver Beach, a mysterious appellation, presumably named for a deceased beaver found there once.
Beaver Facts
Beavers (Castor canadensis) are North America's largest rodents, dark brown mammals with long incisors, short legs, webbed feet and a long, flat, scaly tail. Their front claws are adapted for digging and grasping tree limbs. They are three to four feet long, weigh between 30 to 75 pounds and live six to 11 years. Beavers have one litter a year between April and June and average three to five young.
"The fundamental unit of population is a colony of four to eight related individuals with a home range size of eight acres," according the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) website.
Usually active at night and known as "nature's engineers," beavers chew down trees to construct dams and lodges in lakes and streams. Beaver dams usually form ponds. They eat primarily herbaceous vegetation, woody and aquatic plants. They store limbs and logs underwater near the lodge for winter.
In Virginia, beavers are found in the northern piedmont, mountains and coastal plain, but between 1911 and 1932, there were no beavers in Virginia because of over-trapping for pelts. In 1932, state game managers "imported" 35 beavers from other states and released them in nine counties. By 1953, the beaver population had recovered enough so that DGIF allowed limited trapping. Today, the state manages them as a game species.
Beavers create new habitats that help other plants and animals. Their dams can slow moving water and allow other wildlife and plants to colonize. Beaver ponds can attract waterfowl, amphibians, reptiles and aquatic insects. The dams can also allow more sediment to collect and cause flooding of roads and other property. Beavers kill trees and the higher water levels they create can kill trees.
Beavers are nomadic, explained Munroe. They can move into an area, raise the water level, then eat almost everything around and flood themselves "out of house and home." Then they move to another area and repeat the cycle.
"Beavers pose little threat to humans, their property or pets," according to Fairfax County's website. The website also has a September report of a woman attacked by a beaver that tested positive for rabies and advises caution when people see any animal acting strangely.

Shared hosting is huge, many, if not, most, Web sites share an IP address with an other site. The search engines are aware of this. So why do many experts believe that having a unique IP address will make a difference for search engine ranking? that is the topic of a thread at SEO Chat. In my opinion, when linking between sites on the same IP address, or even IP block, it might raise a red flag. Some experts do not want to take this chance and prefer to secure unique IP addresses and even IP block ranges for each domain name they have. It makes sense, if they do extensive linking between the sites within their networks. Otherwise, in my opinion, it will not affect ones rankings in a positive or negative manner.
The Dedicated IP Myth

Barry, because of a recent experience I think it may be possible that there's some effect with Yahoo. Nothing substantial, but there is a slight suspicion.

Lets look at it from another angle. Can you imagine a situation where being on a shared IP is advantageous?

IMO, easier maintenance of your sites.

I have a system which originally ran Ubuntu 12.04 (now 12.10) on the 'real' hardware. Due to a requirement to run Windows 7 and IE9 (watching streamed movies needed Silverlight with DRM) I installed this to a spare partition and then configured a VirtualBox VM to use the raw disk to boot the existing Ubuntu installation.
This mostly works, except that the network interfaces are, of course, totally different (RTL8169+Atheros9K vs. emulated Ne1000) which mean that the networking usually fails to start if I switch between booting in 'real' or virtual modes.
I've set up a script which fixes
/etc/network/interfaces depending of whether te system is running as a VM or not, but it seems that
udev also rewrites
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-rules and (almost randomly) changes the devices names (
eth1 and/or
So my question is how to set up the dependencies of startup script so I can rewrite any files needed before
udev and/or network startup so that I get a clean network start either way?

You're gonna get it, you don't even know
I wanna feel it; Make me…Woah!

Nothing's better, nothing's close
Time's up, drop your clothes
Dynamite, put on a show!
Dynamo, here we go
Never soft, never slow
Strut your stuff, I'm over here
The demand in you is so severe
You're gonna get it, you don't even know
I know you feel it; I'll make you…Woah!
Scream it out, make it known
Don't stop there, you're not alone
Your expressions I decode
You're dynamite, set to explode
Dynamo, there you go
It wasn't soft, it wasn't slow
Strutted your stuff, over to me here

You're glad you did it, now you know
I know you felt it; Coz I made you…Woah!

You might be able to find help fighting breast cancer and other types of cancers at your local grocery store and fitness centers, according to the research findings of Dr. Marian Neuhouser, Ph.D, RD.
Dr. Neuhouser is a nutritional epidemiologist with a background in nutritional sciences. She is an investigator at Seattle's Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. Her research is focused on lifestyle factors such as nutrition and physical activity. Some factors may prevent breast and prostate cancer and improve survivorship in those diagnosed with cancer.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, each year, more than 200,000 American women are diagnosed with breast cancer and more than 40,000 American women will die from breast cancer.
Dr. Neuhouser's research has found that for postmenopausal women in particular, being overweight or obese may increase the risk for breast cancer.
Dr. Neuhouser explains, "After menopause, estrogens are synthesized by adipose tissue—the more adipose a woman has, the more estrogen she will make. Adipose cells also synthesize inflammatory factors, which have been linked to breast cancer."
One of the most important things a woman at risk for breast cancer can do, says Dr. Neuhouser, is to "maintain a healthy weight."
Given what the research indicates, Dr. Neuhouser says, "One of the most important things is that if a woman is overweight or obese, she should be advised to lose weight and maintain a healthy weight. Daily physical activity and following healthy eating habits with plentiful fruits and vegetables and minimal empty calories and fried foods will help achieve these goals."
Dr. Neuhouser says while it can be challenging to lose weight, "Small changes can add up and make a big difference."
When it comes to getting active, Dr. Neuhouser says, "If someone is not used to physical activity, try a five to ten minute walk and gradually increase the time. Having physical activity partners or walking partners always helps. I know my soccer team will be waiting for me on the field, so even if I am tired or busy, I still show up."

When it comes to food, Dr. Neuhouser says, "Start with making one new food change each week. Instead of eating two cookies, eat just one."
If you are concerned about your weight, Dr. Neuhouser suggests getting the support you need by asking your doctor for " a referral to a reputable weight loss program." For nutrition advice, Dr. Neuhouser recommends asking for a referral to a registered dietitian.

Hey people. I have decided I want an SVS powered cylinder for my 2 channel rig (RT55i's, carver c-1, m-1.0t) I have plenty of amps that I could spare to use with a passive cylinder, but I need a powered cylinder for the high level inputs and crossover, as the C-1 doesnt have an sub pre-out or anything. Im leaning toward the 25-31, just because I move around so much and generally have a smaller room (150-200 Sq. Ft. ) but a 20-39 would also work. PCi and PC-Plus would both be ok, but I dont have the cash to get either of them new, and I dont care about appearance, so I want to go used. Unfortunately everyone loves their SVS and there doesnt seem to be much of a used market (none on ebay) I'm positive with the regard that they are held in at the HTF that as soon as one was put up on there that it would go rather quickly, and for fairly close to new price. I figure though, that since I want a fairly bottom of the line model, and since SVS is turning out new box subs that a lot of people should be upgrading and looking to get rid of their old cylinder.
So my question is, is there a source for used SVS? Dr. Spec, what did you do with your cylinder sub when you got the PB-2?
Whenever I check B-stock on SVS' site they don't have anything. What are the discounts usually, does anyone know?

G2 Bakflip Tonneau Cover, NEED HELP!!
Hey guys,
I recently bought a slightly used G2 Bakflip tonneau cover for my truck which has the factory GM bed rail protectors. I was told that the tonneau cover will work with the bed rail protectors. I've seen lots of trucks with protectors and the tonneau cover but I can't get my rails for the tonneau to clamp even and level. I have the shims on but the rail wants to tilt in towards the box when I go to tighten the clamps...
Any help would be awesome!!2012 Chevrolet Silverado RCSB WT 2WD 1SA
4.8 | G80 | 3.23 | Convenience Package | Z82 | Z85 | B30 | Victory Red
I have the same cover on my 2011. They do tilt in a little bit. I would say if you feel it's excessive then another shim is in order. You can make some out of wood.

THE ISSUE: A bill calling for a purge of law enforcement personnel from online property records.
OUR VIEW: Anonymity for police threatens the transparency of public property records.
There are many good intentions at the start of every Indiana General Assembly, to be quickly followed by a host of unintended consequences.
Exhibit A would be state Rep. Mike Karickhoff's well-intentioned attempt to bestow on law enforcement the ability to have members' names purged from online, county-maintained property records.
As one legislative watcher put it, it's a measure certain to gain a lot of sympathy. But as soon as we ran a story on the bill, we received email asking why the bill only covers law enforcement addresses.
After all, if law enforcement officials' names are stricken from Howard County's online property tax database, Beacon, why shouldn't other people be able to have their names removed?
Going further, why should they have their names printed on the property cards at the auditor's office? Shouldn't they be able to own property in perfect anonymity?
Since time began, the good people at the auditor's office have explained to those who plead privacy that "people have a right to know who owns property."
That right has been sacrosanct. You have a right to know who owns the property you're interested in purchasing. You have the right to know if your public officials are paying their property taxes. You have the right to know who owns the drug house down the street. You have the right to know who owns that property the government just purchased.
And the system works. Every day, Realtors, prospective homebuyers, government officials, bankers, concerned neighbors and a host of others take advantage of the public service the county provides through Beacon.
But now comes the camel's nose under the tent, in the form of Karickhoff's bill, followed by a bit more of the camel in the form of another legislator's amendment to extend the anonymity privilege to anyone who asks.
One wonders how long it will be until the entire beast is inside the tent, the property records are a Swiss cheese of blank data fields, and your right to a transparent system of property records and tax information has been sacrificed to legislative good intentions.
We also wonder how those aforementioned auditor's office employees will cope when they're deluged with in-person information requests, if indeed Beacon is subjected to a legislative purge.
There's a reason this bill went nowhere two years ago, and it's the same reason it should die permanently this time around.
There's next to no evidence Karickhoff's proposal will make anyone safer, but it's guaranteed to play havoc with one of the most useful and taxpayer-friendly services local government can offer.

New Albany Mayor Jeff Gahan released his strategy for the city operation of its own parks department late Thursday afternoon.
The New Albany City Council is slated to take the final vote Monday on dividing the city-county parks department. The measure is expected to pass after it was approved 6-3 during first and second readings last month.
Gahan's push for the divide has been based in part because the city has funded the department by about $4 million more than the county since 2004.
Those opposed to the split of the New Albany-Floyd County Parks Department have criticized Gahan for not providing specific details of how the transition would work.
Among the highlights of the plan released Thursday, Gahan intends for the city to commit an additional $250,000 to improve parks annually while assuming control of operations, programs and leagues held at Cannon Acres and the Southern Indiana Sports Complex.
Gahan anticipates the city will assume operations and maintenance of 16 parks and will make no changes to employment through March of 2013. New Albany will establish a city parks board hopefully by December, and applications will be accepted from residents interested in serving.
Operations will continue as normal through the end of the year, according to the plan, but the administration requests the current parks board make no capital purchases with respect to vehicles, equipment or furniture.
The city has hired the firm Rodefer Moss & Company to analyze 2012 parks expenses. The information from the survey will be used for 2013 budgeting and planning, according to the administration.
The city is requesting New Albany and Floyd County assume control of the properties that were originally deeded to each entity or their respective parks boards prior to the 1994 joint agreement.
According to the plan, that would mean five properties would not be in sole possession of the city or county by title: Campbell-Woodland Nature Trails, Cannon Acres, Griffin Street Park, Fairmont Park and the Southern Indiana Sports Complex.
The Sports Complex is deeded to the NA-FC Parks Department from the Blue Sky Foundation with a reversion clause stating the facility must be used for recreation or it goes back to the organization.
The city is proposing to take over responsibilities associated with running the leagues and events regularly held at the Sports Complex and the other co-owned facilities. The plan states that regardless of who is deemed to own the five properties, the city will "cooperate to support the facility and their future operations."

The Lawrence Golden Tornadoes became Long Island champions after coming back in the fourth quarter to beat Sayville by the final score of 21-20 in the Long Island Class III championship game at Hofstra on Friday night.
The Golden Tornadoes stormed back in the second half after trailing Sayville 20-7 at halftime. Lawrence did not hold a lead until the fourth quarter, when Lawrence senior Ed Robinson returned an interception 30 yards for the game winning touchdown with 5:25 left in the game.
Like Five Towns Patch on Facebook.
"They say offense wins games, but defense finally won us a championship," Robinson said after the game.
In a rematch of last year's record-setting shootout for the Long Island title, it was the defenses that shined for both undefeated teams, as both units held the other team's high-scoring offense in check.
Sayville began the game with the ball and came out of the gate strong, scoring on the game's opening drive. Senior quarterback Zach Sirico found senior wide receiver Matthew Starr for a 37-yard touchdown pass to give the Golden Flashes an early 7-0 lead.
The high-powered Lawrence offense then took the field for their first possession of the game, but was forced to punt after an impressive defensive series from Sayville. The Golden Flashes held Lawrence scoreless in the first quarter, something that hasn't happened to the Golden Tornadoes all season long.
Lawrence got on the scoreboard early in the second quarter when senior wide receiver John Ganas hauled in a 20-yard pass from junior quarterback Joe Capobianco for a touchdown to tie the game at 7-7 with 10:14 to go in the quarter.
After going three-and-out on offense on the following drive, the Sayville defense forced a three-and-out of their own. Sayville senior linebacker Ethan Cooley recorded a sack on Capobianco to give the Golden Flashes the ball back with 6:01 left in the half.
Sayville began with the ball at the 50-yard line and relied on their running game to get them into the end zone. Sirico and senior running back John Haggart both had 10-yard runs to pick up key first downs on the drive. Sirico capped off the scoring drive with a 13-yard rushing touchdown on a quarterback keep to give Sayville the lead back 14-7 with 4:35 left in the half.
Unfortunately, the play came with a price for Sayville, as Sirico had to leave the game with what appeared to be a lower-leg injury sustained on the touchdown run.
Senior Donald DeKenipp stepped in as quarterback on Sayille's next possession with 2:24 left in the half and picked up where Sirico left off by engineering a scoring drive from the Golden Flashes own 35-yard line.
The drive was capped off by a 41-yard touchdown grab from senior wide receiver James Giattino. Sayville missed the ensuing extra point but headed into halftime with a 20-7 lead. The missed extra point would come back to haunt the Golden Flashes at the end of the game.
Lawrence began the second half with the ball at their own 40-yard line and put together an impressive scoring drive that include two fourth-down conversions. A 5-yard rushing touchdown from Capobianco cut into Sayville's lead, 20-14, and ignited Lawrence's comeback effort.
On the following drive, it seemed as if Sayville was on their way to finding the end zone again, as the Golden Flashes marched deep into Lawrence territory from their own 27-yard line. However, an interception by Lawrence senior Tyler Fredericks prevented Sayville from adding to their lead.
After forcing Sayville to punt from their own end zone, Lawrence would get a chance to capture the lead early in the fourth quarter starting at the Sayville 45-yard line. The Golden Tornadoes advanced all the way to the Sayville 6-yard line but Capobianco was sacked by senior defensive back Kyle Murray to turn the ball over on downs with 6:23 left in the game.
Sayville took over at their own 16-yard line with their eyes on increasing their lead late in the game. However, Robinson made the play of the game with a 30-yard pick-six to give Lawrence their first lead of the game, 21-20, with 5:25 left.
"I kind of knew his route a little bit because we were practicing it all week," Robinson said after the game. "I opened my hips one way and got him inside. Then the quarterback threw it a little behind and I made an adjustment. After I secured the ball, I knew I wasn't taking no for an answer. I was getting in the end zone."
Sayville began their next drive at their own 39-yard line in need of points. With 3:37 remaining in the contest and the game on the line, the Golden Flashes were met with a fourth-and-one on their own 48-yard line.
Unfortunately for Sayville, Tyler Fredericks and senior defensive lineman Florian Capobianco were there to stuff them at the line and end their championship hopes. Lawrence took over on downs and ran out the clock for the 21-20 victory.
"You couldn't push them hard enough," Lawrence head coach Joe Martillotti said. "It didn't matter what they faced. They were down 20-7 at half and to come back and win it defensively — it's a great, unbelievable feeling."
With the win, Lawrence finishes the season with a perfect 12-0 record and the title of Long Island champions. For a team known for its prolific offense, it was gratifying for Martillotti that the defense stepped up with the championship on the line.
"All season long we heard it was the offense and quietly our defense was doing their job," Martillotti said. "Our starters until this game only gave up three touchdowns the whole season and they've done a great job all year."
For Sayville, the loss signaled the end to a successful season that saw the team go undefeated in the regular season and win its third consecutive Suffolk Conference III championship.
"It's a great group of kids that I just coached this year," Sayville head coach Robert Hoss said. "That group is a class that is all heart and all character."
"They played their [butts] off tonight and, as a football coach, sometimes the scoreboard doesn't reflect what really happened out there and at the end of the day that's a championship team in my book," Hoss added.

Emerging markets are known for generating the world's fastest economic growth. On a less positive note, they've also acquired a reputation for instability.
According to Christopher Vella, co-portfolio manager of the Northern Multi-Manager Emerging Markets Equity Fund, factors that caused investors to jump in and out of emerging market stocks at the drop of a Malaysian ringgit have improved, especially since the Russian and Asian financial crisis in the late 1990s.
"Many developing countries now have their financial houses in order," he says. "They've learned from past mistakes."
Vella cautions against painting all emerging markets with the same broad brush. Overall, however, these are not the emerging economies of yesteryear. Yes, they're still precocious and unpredictable — economic teenagers, if you will. And some still depend heavily on exports to struggling economies in the West.
But the credit bubble that severely damaged rich world finances left sovereign emerging market balance sheets relatively unscathed.
House prices in most developing economies didn't inflate to the same degree as in the United States, Japan or Europe. Since bank bailouts weren't needed, emerging markets are in better financial health than their wheezing developed market elders.
Last year, budget deficits in the emerging world averaged just 2% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) compared with 8% in developed countries. Similarly, aggregate government debt is manageable, averaging 36% of GDP versus 119% in developed markets.1
Northern offers two distinct strategies to gain exposure to emerging economies.
The Northern Multi-Manager Emerging Markets Equity Fund employs five active managers chosen for their complimentary styles. In seeking the Fund's objective of long-term capital appreciation, the Fund managers also strive to outperform the MSCI Emerging Markets Index benchmark, but with less volatility. Investors seeking to track the MSCI Emerging Markets Index may also choose the Northern Emerging Markets Equity Index Fund — a lower-cost approach that has less risk and less upside potential than the Northern Multi-Manager Emerging Markets Equity Fund.
If the global economy goes off the tracks again, Vella thinks emerging market stocks would take a hard hit along with other risk assets. Some things never change. But assuming a "muddle through" environment, he's generally optimistic on the asset class.
"Selectivity is important, but these are mostly fiscally sound countries with some quality businesses," he says. "If you're a long-term investor, that's a good combination."

Jan. 28, 2012. Page 75.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Equity Risk: Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.
Emerging and Frontier Markets Risk: Emerging and frontier market investing may be subject to additional economic, political, liquidity and currency risks not associated with more developed countries. Additionally, frontier countries generally have smaller economies or less developed capital markets than traditional emerging markets and, as a result, the risks of investing in emerging market countries are magnified in frontier countries.
Index Fund Risk: The performance of the Fund is expected to be lower than that of the Index because of Fund fees and expenses. It is important to remember that there are risks associated with index investing, including the potential risk of market decline, as well as the risks associated with investing in specific companies.
MSCI Emerging Markets IndexSM is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the market value of the finished goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific time period, though GDP is usually calculated on an annual basis. GDP includes consumer and government spending, private domestic investments, and net exports of goods and services.

As of today you can walk into an Apple Retail store in Canada and walk out with an unlocked iPhone 5. That's something that was only possible via Apple Online orders until now, likely to prevent the type of scalping activity -- the same people lining up everyday to buy unlocked iPhones only to resell them overseas -- that caused problems with previous Canadian launches. Not to be left totally behind, the U.S. has also started selling the iPhone 5 unlocked, but only via Apple Online.
So, if you still haven't gotten your iPhone, and you want to walk into an Apple Store and walk out with an unlocked one, and you live in Canada, today's your lucky day.
Go get it.

Apple has announced that the new iPad will be going on sale at Apple Retail Stores on Friday, March 16 at 8am local time in the US, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Switzerland and the UK; along with Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.
MacRumors and Heylookitsseric are both claiming Apple will be updating their Apple Store app to allow customers self-service checkout for off-the-shelf items like iPhone and iPad cases at Apple Retail.
The Apple Online Store was down earlier today, and while we didn't get any red iPhone 5s, we did get some feature improvements, including an easier way to order just the iPad 2 you want.
As you choose, your order is summarized and you can tap to continue on and place it. It's definitely an easier way to order, especially on an iPad.
As promised the white iPhone 4 finally showed up on Apple online last night and is currently available with a 3-5 business day shipping estimate (as opposed to the mere 24hrs for the black iPhone 4). Apple might be prioritizing current stock for Apple Retail, carrier stores and resellers like Best Buy so anyone heading out to get one today doesn't come home disappointed.
Square, the credit card reader for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad by Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, is now available online via Apple.com and will soon be available at Apple Retail locations as well.
Appe Online in the US has posted their once-a-year sale prices for Black Friday and as expected, iPad, iPod touch, and iPod nano as all being discounted. Come tomorrow you'll be able to save $15 on a brand new iPod nano, $21 on an iPod touch, and $41 on an iPad.
Want to save money n a brand new iPad or iPod touch during Apple's annual Black Friday sale? Well if Australia is any indication, you're in luck. iPad is showing a AUS$51 reduction across the line, iPod touch from AUS$25 to $51 depending on model, and iPod nano from AUS$15 to $25 depending on model.
Apple Online and Apple Retail have only one sale a year -- Black Friday, held the day after Thanksgiving -- and Apple has already got a helpful reminder posted on their website:
Come back to the Apple Online Store the day after Thanksgiving for a special one-day-only holiday shopping event. You'll find dozens of great iPad, iPod and Mac gifts for everyone on your list.

University of Nebraska-Lincoln officials have chosen a leader for the new Innovation Campus research park that is designed to attract new jobs and businesses to the state.
Chancellor Harvey Perlman says Dan Duncan has been promoted to
be executive director of the Nebraska Innovation Campus, which is
being built on the former State Fairgrounds.
Duncan has been director of UNL's agricultural research division
since 2004.
Perlman says Duncan was a logical choice for the new role because of his background in agricultural research and his experience with setting up the university's research partnership with Bayer CropScience.
The Innovation Campus is designed to be a public-private partnership. The university plans to invest $25 million in the
campus. While developer Woodbury Corp. invests private money.

Every once in a while, in the course of putting out a weekly paper in a mid-sized Southern city, you get the chance to talk to your idols. Here are just some of the great artists we were able to talk to and write about.
Al Green, R&B singer, by Lee Gardner (May 20, 1994): "God said to me two, two and a half years ago to start using all my songs again—the old hits as well as the new hits. I went on a 21-day fast, doing without eatin' and stuff. I wanted to be sure I was right by doing this. But He said, 'That's the whole Al Green.'"
John Waters, filmmaker, by Coury Turczyn (Sept. 9, 1994): "Camp is a luxury. You cannot have the luxury of irony if you're poor. If you don't have something to eat, nothing is so bad it's good. Basically, there's no such thing as 'camp.'"
Bill Monroe, bluegrass creator, by Chris Barrett (Oct. 7, 1994): "Now I'm not bragging about it, but a lot of people just get bored and tired when they get old. They don't take all that this livin's got to give."
Mel Torme, lounge singer, by Chris Barrett (Feb. 10, 1995): "I think the greatest period this country ever enjoyed musically was the big band era. When you compare big band to rap and hip hop and the rest of the garbage you hear these days, there really is no comparison."
George Clinton, funk innovator, by Coury Turczyn (Feb. 24, 1995): "You can never tell from one city to the next who's going to be predominately there. You'd think a lot of hip-hoppers'd be there, but most of 'em are embarrassed because their mothers are there. One guy told me: 'Yo, Judge, man, my aunt's over there, man, smokin' boo. Man, if she's here, my momma's probably here!'"
Don Everly, rock 'n' roll pioneer, by Lee Gardner (March 10, 1994): "The ducktails and the long hair, I took to that. The black and the pink, the turned-up collar, and that whole look—that was me. And it still is, to be perfectly honest with you. I don't have the ducktails now, but I've got the turned-up collar. It was an attitude, but it wasn't a bad one."
William Styron, author, by Tracy Jones (Sept. 21, 1995): "I felt ordained to be a writer, in a kind of negative way, the negative aspect being that I could conceive of no life that was worthwhile without being a writer. Although I've felt terribly dissatisfied with myself and with the role of a writer, I don't have any other livelihood that I would find satisfying."
Russ Meyer, filmmaker, by Coury Turczyn (Sept 28, 1995): "Cantilevered. Outrageously abundant and defying gravity. That's it! And it sure generates a lot of, shall we say, carnality on the part of a person like Meyer."
John Kricfalusi, animator of Ren & Stimpy, by Coury Turczyn (Jan. 25, 1996): "Executives. They really have no concept whatsoever of what people like because they don't have any experiences themselves that they can relate to. When you meet people in the executive world in entertainment, you'd swear they are the squarest people you've ever seen in your life. These are people you have to tell that other people like sex. They'll go, 'Really? Maybe we should put some of that in our shows!'"
Kirk Hammett, guitarist for Metallica, by Mike Gibson (July 18, 1996): "We're not a metal band anymore. At this point, I think it's safe to say we've metamorphosed into something else."
Nikki Giovanni, poet, by Tracy Jones (May 29, 1997): "Knoxville has opened itself to imagination. I think it's the hills, to tell you the truth. Hill people are different. The soil is tough, and the life is tougher. I'm so much a part of these hills, how could I not be proud of it?"
Scotty Moore, guitarist for Elvis Presley's earliest hits on Sun Records, by Mike Gibson (Aug. 14, 1997): "[Elvis] came to my house one Sunday, the day before we were going to audition him. He was only 18 and his voice had not matured, so some things he sang pretty high. But he seemed like he knew every song in the world, and he had a good sense of timing in his voice. I thought he was worth a shot, but I wasn't bowled over by any means."
Ted Nugent, rock star, by John Sewell (Aug. 19, 1999): "It's not about Ted and what Ted does; it's about how they hate what Ted stands for. I've always stood for the same thing: the celebration of the Motor City Madman and the intensity of the primal scream that has always been my music. I always proclaimed the fact that I am a hunter, I am a gatherer, I am a nature guy, I'm militantly anti-drug abuse and f--king trends. I will squash trends with my left nut."
Joan Jett, rock star, by John Sewell: "You know, can you all please stop calling all the pop babes rock 'n' roll? It's really getting tiring hearing people like Britney Spears being called rock 'n' roll. Give me a break!"
Steve Earle, singer and songwriter, by Joe Tarr: "Knoxville's a lot hipper of a town than people who have never been there think."
Henry Rollins, rock star and former Black Flag singer, by John Sewell (Feb. 21, 2008): "In Black Flag, we were always broke. Being broke is the story of most indie bands. I had a lot of years of not having any money, but I stuck it out. Once I got to the point where I was making a little money and not having to worry about the bottom line at the end of every month, I began to realize that there's something more to do. Instead of buying a fleet of Ferraris and losing the plot, I bought plane tickets and books and access."
Lou Reed, rock star and iconoclast, by Joe Tarr (April 23, 2008): "I don't know. You were the one who asked the question."
Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister, bassist/singer for Motörhead, by Matthew Everett (Sept. 9, 2009): "I went in and gave a sample and the doctor said, 'Don't let him give any blood transfusions!' My blood had apparently become some kind of chemical soup. We did a lot more bad things back then that we're not doing today."

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -- South Africa's beloved former president, Nelson Mandela, was hospitalized in a Pretoria military hospital Saturday for tests.
The 94-year-old Mandela, his nation's first black president, has had several health scares in recent years that sparked rumors of his death. But this time, the office of President Jacob Zuma reassured South Africans in a statement that there was no cause for alarm for the man they know affectionately as Madiba.

Mickey Hatcher - The Original Red Dog
by, 05-16-2012 at 08:20 PM (954 Views)
For those of you too young to remember the Mick when he played for the Twins, let me take a few minutes to enlighten you:
Mickey Hatcher was loved in Minnesota. Not so much because he was a great player (though he was decent enough to be a semi-regular starter), but because he was slightly crazy. Everybody loved him. There are a few stories about him I would like to share.
On May 4, 1984, Dave Kingman hit a towering fly ball that went up through one of the drainage holes holes in the ceiling. The ball never came back down. After a few minutes discussion, the umpires decided to give Kingman a double. This is relatively known. What is not quite as known is that the following day, the grounds crew went up into the roof to fetch the ball out. Well, Mick wanted to be a part of this, so they announced that the worker was going to drop the ball and Mick was going to catch it "so it would be an out yesterday". Local news came to cover it and everything. Well the worker couldn't get to the ball, but they did drop a substitute ball. Good ole' Mick, waiting patiently underneath the hole missed the ball. It hit him on the way down, never got a glove on it. Classic.
I had the fortune of being at the last game of the season in 1986. It was a home game, and the Twins were coming off a horrible year. Anyways, Viola pitched a shutout and thew Twins went out on a winning note. After the game, many of the Twins players came back on the field and threw used batting gloves, hats, and other items into the stands (I still rock my Kent Hrbek batting glove). Not Mickey Hatcher. Mick actually climbs up into the stands and sits with a large group of fans out by the left field foul pole. He's giving away his hat, jersey, shoes. Everybody's going nuts around him.
Hatcher left the Twins after 1986 and went to the Dodgers. Though he missed 1987 here, he got his ring with the 88' Los Angeles team. That is where he hooked up with Mike Scioscia. Scioscia became manager of the Angels, Mickey became his hitting coach. Until today that is. The Angels let him go, needing a scapegoat for their currently bad offense and Albert Pujols' slow start.
You can read stories today about how much the fans of Los Angeles like Hatcher because he is still a big kid at heart and still loves the game. He and Mike Redmond are very similar in that vein. If the Twins do decide to bring in a new hitting coach, Mickey Hatcher would be an ideal fit.
Here's to hoping we see him back in the game soon.

Monday night, a little after 7 p.m. Eastern, the Texas Rangers will kick off a three-game set at home against the New York Yankees. Lefty Derek Holland will oppose lefty CC Sabathia. Come Tuesday, it'll be Yu Darvish and Hiroki Kuroda. And then Wednesday, other guys. This should be a hell of a series, as the Rangers face perhaps the other best team in the American League.
Of course, the Rangers are coming off a four-game series in Detroit against the Tigers, who might also be perhaps the other best team in the American League. That could've and should've been a hell of a series, too, but the Rangers wound up winning three out of four, and out-scoring the Tigers 25-12. The last two were close; the first two were blowouts. Depending on your definition of the term, the Rangers have already won five blowouts. The Cubs, Red Sox, and Royals have yet to win five games.
In fact, before the year, one might've figured this part of the schedule would be a real challenge for Texas. There's a series against Boston, followed by a series against Detroit, followed by a series against New York, followed by a series against Tampa Bay. So far the Rangers have gone 6-1, and while we know that the Red Sox have been a little less than advertised, the Rangers have been a big part of that. The Rangers swept the Red Sox, in Boston, and out-scored them 34-9. Again, for reference, the Pirates have scored 30 runs all season.*
* the Pirates have scored 30 runs all season.
The 2012 American League West was supposed to look something like previous versions of the American League East. There were to be two tiers: the haves, and the have-nots. The Rangers and the Angels were supposed to be involved in a six-month dogfight, while the Mariners and the A's were supposed to film the dogfight from the ground. I mean, sure, the Rangers added Yu Darvish, but the Rangers lost C.J. Wilson, and the Angels added C.J. Wilson along with Kendrys Morales and a certain Albert Pujols. The Angels came in with so many bats they had to have Bobby Abreu and Mark Trumbo on the bench. The Angels came in with so many excellent starters that people were like, wow, they have a lot of excellent starters.
Over the offseason, I read more than a few articles declaring that the Rangers and the Angels were the two best teams in the American League. They might indeed be the two best teams in the American League. But when the Rangers woke up Monday morning, they woke up with the knowledge that the Angels were in last place, seven games back. The Mariners are six-and-a-half games back and mediocre. The A's are five-and-a-half games back and mediocre. The A's and the Mariners ain't threatening the Rangers. And if the Angels intend to threaten the Rangers, they'll probably want to go undefeated for a couple of months.
The Rangers already have a seven-game lead on the Angels. Actually, they already had a seven-game lead on the Angels last Thursday. The Angels won a series against the Orioles and gained no ground. Most pre-season projections I saw put the Rangers and the Angels at being similarly good. The Angels now have to make up seven games in the division just to catch the Rangers, and ten percent of the season is over.
When you think about the fact that there are still another 146 games to be played, including all of the head-to-head games between the Rangers and the Angels, seven games doesn't seem like that much. When you think about it harder, it seems like that much. It would be one thing to out-run a team like the Blue Jays or the White Sox by seven games the rest of the way, but the Rangers are the Rangers. Their big vulnerability has nothing to do with the talent they have, and more to do with their ability to keep that talent on the field. It's April 23, and the Rangers are in an incredibly commanding position.
Check out the playoff odds listed at ESPN.com. The Yankees are at 72 percent. Wow! The Cardinals are at 74 percent. Wowee! The Rangers are at 96 percent. A little above 96 percent, at that. What I like even more is the breakdown at CoolStandings, and while I do not suggest you take these too seriously, the Rangers' odds of winning the division have improved from 61 percent at the start of the season to 90 percent now. You can find more bearish odds elsewhere, and perhaps more accurate odds, but they'll all tell you this: the Rangers are the overwhelming favorites in the AL West, and if they were to miss the playoffs now, it would be a near-miracle.
The Rangers could start resting Josh Hamilton now to gear up for October. I don't actually mean that, but they've already relieved themselves of so much potential stress. They have a lot of ground they could give before they have to be truly worried about anything; so if, say, Neftali Feliz hits a rough spot, they could back off or skip over him. If Hamilton or Nelson Cruz feels discomfort, he could sit without pushing it. If Adrian Beltre ruptures another testicle, he could take two or three days. It's not that the Rangers can relax; it's that they can play without any anxiety. For now, at least, so long as the lead doesn't disappear, the Rangers can be like a writer without a deadline. They can work without worry.
Look the Angels up and down. They look good, but there's a part of you that'll say, yeah, I think I get it. Look the Rangers up and down. Where are the problems? Mitch Moreland hasn't hit, but Mike Napoli can play first base. That's ... pretty much it for the offense, aside from injury potential. The Rangers don't have much depth in the outfield. In the rotation, the biggest question mark might be Yu Darvish, which must be a hell of a problem to have. The issue in the bullpen is Joe Nathan, and he has a walk and nine strikeouts. The Rangers have it so good it's easy to forget they have Koji Uehara and Mark Lowe, potential setup guys on several other teams.
The Texas Rangers are 13-3. They've scored three more runs than anybody else, and they've allowed two fewer runs than anybody else. They're not this good, because 13-3 works out to 132-30, and the Texas Rangers aren't going to win 132 games. But they could win 100. Maybe even 105. They're off to a good head start. The Angels aren't this bad, but if they want to challenge the Rangers for the division, their work is cut out for them, and then some. On the footpath to the playoffs, the Rangers have time to smell the flowers and take pictures of a waterfall. The Angels have to run like they're being chased by bees.

Mar 29, 2013A masterful work of art. It has it all: hilarious presentation, great aesthetic, stellar music, and compelling gameplay. It's a rare sequel that improves on the original in every single way imaginable. I highly recommend this game, and it's one of the best values you can get. You owe it to yourself to pick up this amazing title as soon as you can.
Mar 6, 2013It's a wonderful sensation to lose yourself in this game, whether you are facing down the formidable challenges of The Mounting Sadds or simply going for a breezy run in The Emerald Brine. Runner 2 doesn't just offer you an entertaining experience; it throws its arm around you companionably, ushers you into its whimsical world, and makes you feel like part of something special.
Apr 14, 2013A better game than its predecessor, fun, addictive and powered by great gameplay.
Apr 27, 2013An amazing amount of thought has gone into this; in an industry dominated by scattershot excess, this is a perfect exercise in honing a single strength.
May 5, 2013In the end, Runner2 appears to be more than a rhythm game. This is not wrong, as it is not less certain the balance of its elements, which even make us forget the limits of our actions.
Apr 23, 2013The charm and fun present are not easily found elsewhere and it's great to see something which sets itself out as a pure gaming experience without the pretentious overtures that many bigger budget games now have. It's both something old and something new and you should stop reading now and go and buy it.
Apr 24, 2013The audiovisual presentation with its retro flair is charming and thanks to the constant challenge the motivation starts on a high level. It is replaced by frustration though, because challenge quickly becomes routine, which in turn made me go back to more classic jump&runs.
Score distribution:
Positive: 12 out of 13
Mixed: 0 out of 13
Negative: 1 out of 13
Feb 28, 2013The sequel to the best auto run game doesn't disappoint. It takes everything that the first game did and does it better. The experience is a well polished, larger more fleshed out experience. From the games strange sense of humor to its amazing sound track this game keeps you entertained through out. It offers tons of replay value, whether it be replaying the levels for higher scores and different "perfect" scores, or the hidden treasures and vintage styled levels peppered through out. Playing it off TV on the Wii U pad works perfectly and using headphones lets you really experience the amazing music. If you love music, fun or indie games in general, you'll love Runner 2.… Expand
Feb 5, 2014Runner2 has everything you could ever want in a single-player platformer: simple gameplay, beautiful aesthetics, and a smorgasbord of collectibles. Slap in a bunch of leaderboards and a grand sense of humour for good measure, and you have yourself a very solid video game. As CommanderVideo and friends, you are to run, jump, slide, kick and dance your way to the finish line in a whopping 100 levels, plus an additional 25 retro levels which can be found within the main levels. The learning curve is very nice, and the number of obstacles is increased with the difficulty to give experienced players a real challenge. There are another seven characters to unlock, as well as 40 costumes in total; more than enough to tide you over before your next purchase. If you're looking for a well-crafted game with an addictive sense of pleasure, the game with the longest title in the world will be more than willing to sate your desires.… Expand
Feb 28, 2013The best indie game on the Wii U to date (maybe even the best on the console digital or physical). It's everything you could want from a rhythm based game. There's not tons of content, but getting perfect on every level provides a challenge. You may find the game repetitive at times, but the different setting for each world helps relieve that feeling. A must have on the Wii U right now.… Expand
May 24, 2013One of the best, most addictive games I have ever played. Has an old school feel to it, especially the retro levels.
I haven't played a game with that "Just one more try" appeal for a long time. I bought it from eShop for only £7 and change and it's the best purchase I've made in recent years.
Simple gameplay with enough variation and style to keep you running. This could easily have been a budget release for £19.99 on the shelf at Game. You'd be crazy to miss out.… Expand
Jun 1, 2014Bit.Trip Presents...Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien definitely is a good game, much better than its predecessor. The goal of the game is simple: Reach the end of the track, and avoid any obstacle. What differentiates this game with most of today's platformers is that your character is always moving at a constant speed. This, paired with its way of integrating music into gameplay give this game a distinct feeling to it.
So where does this game fall? There aren't really anything this game does that is bad, and if I was following the same rating-scale that many others do, I would probably end up giving the game an 8, or maybe even a 9. My biggest concern with the game though is that, while it gives you a variety of different challenges, when mastering one, mastering the next will be fairly easy. Another concern I have is that there's little variety in the visuals of the game. The game has some really good looking backgrounds, but I won't really be able to pay much attention to those when playing. I'm more likely to be paying attention to the platforms and obstacles, and I often find myself running on the same old tree platforms.
All in all though, I absolutely love Bit.Trip Presents...Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien, a game that was well worth its purchase. If you're a person who like platform games, this is definitely a game you should try out. While the game can be hectic, its music will cool you right back down.… Expand

Deadline for Filing Your Canadian Income Taxes
The deadline for filing your Canadian income taxes for 2013 has been extended to May 5, 2014.
If you owe income tax and file your income tax return after the deadline, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will charge a penalty and interest on the unpaid amount.
Who Has to File a Canadian Income Tax Return
Most Canadian residents have to file a Canadian income tax return for the previous year to pay the accurate amount of income tax owed, to pay back overpayment of benefits such as Employment Insurance, and/or to claim certain benefits, such as the GST/HST Credit or the Guaranteed Income Supplement under the Old Age Security Program.
Some international and non-resident individuals must also file a Canadian income tax return.
Before You Prepare Your Income Tax Return
Before you tackle your income tax return, make sure you have the following information:
- social insurance number
- tax information slips - information slips sent by employers, banks and businesses to tell you and the Canada Revenue Agency how much income you received and the amount of income tax that was deducted.
- information on other income, including self-employment income
- receipts for tax deductions
- personal income tax information you might need from the Quick Access and My Account services, such as your RRSP contribution limit.
Collect Your Income Tax Package, Forms and Information Guides
To file your taxes, you need an income tax package for the province in which you lived on December 31 of the previous year. The package includes a return (form), federal tax worksheet, schedules (more forms), a provincial or territory tax worksheet and an information guide.
In 2013, in order to reduce waste, the CRA stopped automatically mailing income tax packages to everyone who had filed an income tax return the year before. Here's Where to Get a Canadian Income Tax Package.
If you file your taxes online, the tax package comes with the software. Be sure you get the version of software that meets your tax situation.
Choose the Best Way to File Your Income Taxes
The Canada Revenue Agency is encouraging Canadians to file their income taxes online. You can still file your taxes by mail or by hiring someone to do it for you. Here are Ways to File Your Canadian Income Taxes. Select the one that's most appropriate for you and your income tax situation.
Find Detailed Information and Help
There are a variety of sources available to answer your specific tax questions. Here are some good places to find help with your Canadian income taxes.
Pay Your Taxes
You can pay your Canadian income taxes by mailing a cheque to the CRA, using your regular online or telephone banking, using the CRA's My Payment Service or paying at a Canadian financial institution. If you have to pay by instalments, you can also set up a pre-authorized debit plan. Find out more in Ways to Pay Your Personal Canadian Income Taxes.
Check on Your Income Tax Refund
For many, the hardest part of doing their income taxes is waiting for their refund. There are several ways to check on your income tax refund.
Change Your Canadian Income Tax Return
You can make some changes to your income tax return online; others you have to make by mail. If you need them, you can get the income tax packages for past years online.
Keep Your Address Current With the CRA
Be sure the CRA has your current address. That way you'll receive refunds and benefit payments, as well as important notices, without interruption. Here's how to change your address with the CRA.

Genetic testing can help determine a person's risk for developing certain cancers. Identifying cancer genes, the presence of BRCA 1and 2 mutations, is the first step. This testing allows the implementation of risk-reducing interventions: more frequent screening, surgical prevention and chemoprevention.
For patients and families at risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer due to BRCA mutations, the information gained from genetic testing not only provides answers, but raises questions, too. On Nov. 30, Beaumont Health System is hosting Michigan's first day-long conference for these area residents seeking information and support.
While there are no fees to attend the symposium, registration is required. To register, call 800-633-7377 or go online at classes.beaumont.edu and search for BRCA. Lunch will be provided.
Explains Dana Zakalik, M.D., director, Cancer Genetics Program, Beaumont Health System, "This marks the first time there has been such a program combining education and support for those with BRCA genetic mutations in Michigan. We're connecting, reaching out, to the BRCA community statewide."
The program will take place from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. in classrooms 1 and 2 in the lower level of the Administration Building, Beaumont Hospital, 3711 W. 13 Mile Road in Royal Oak.
The conference will address many topics, including:
–Cancer genetics overview.
–Ovarian cancer screening and preventive surgery.
–Managing other cancers associated with BRCA.
–Psychological and psychosocial aspects.
–Breast cancer risk management, screening and surgery.
–Breast self-exams, mindfulness and healthy lifestyles.
Beaumont Health System's Cancer Genetics Program provides patients with the most up-to-date information about hereditary cancer risks and guidelines for cancer screenings and treatments. The multidisciplinary team includes an oncologist with expertise in cancer genetics, genetic counselors and support staff.

First slowed, then stalled by political gridlock, the vast machinery of government clanged into partial shutdown mode on Tuesday and President Barack Obama warned the longer it goes "the more families will be hurt."
Republicans said it was his fault, not theirs, and embarked on a strategy — opposed by Democrats — of voting on bills to reopen individual agencies or programs.
Ominously, there were suggestions from leaders in both parties that the shutdown, heading for its second day, could last for weeks and grow to encompass a possible default by the Treasury if Congress fails to raise the nation's debt ceiling. The two issues are "now all together," said Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill.
Speaking at the White House, the president accused Republicans of causing the first partial closure in 17 years as part of a non-stop "ideological crusade" to wipe out his signature health care law.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, gave as good as he got. "The president isn't telling the whole story,' he said in an opinion article posted on the USA Today website. "The fact is that Washington Democrats have slammed the door on reopening the government by refusing to engage in bipartisan talks."
Both houses of Congress met in a Capitol closed to regular public tours, part of the impact of a partial shutdown that sent ripples of disruption outward — from museums and memorials in Washington to Yellowstone and other national parks and to tax auditors and federal offices serving Americans coast to coast.
Officials said roughly 800,000 federal employees would be affected by the shutdown after a half-day on the job Tuesday to fill out time cards, put new messages on their voice mail and similar chores.
Late Tuesday, House Republicans sought swift passage of legislation aimed at reopening small slices of the federal establishment. The bills covered the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Park Service and a portion of the Washington, D.C., government funded with local tax revenue. Democrats generally opposed all three, saying Republicans shouldn't be permitted to choose which agencies remain open and which stay shut. As a result, all fell well short of the two-thirds majority needed for passage.
The White House also issued veto threats against the bills, drawing a jab from Michael Steel, a spokesman for Boehner. Obama "can't continue to complain about the impact of the government shutdown on veterans, visitors at National Parks, and D.C. while vetoing bills to help them," he said.
Several House Democrats used the occasion to seek a vote on a standalone spending bill, a measure that Rep. Elizabeth Esty of Connecticut said would "end the tea party shutdown." The requests were ruled out of order.
Republican aides said all three bills that were sidetracked could be brought up again on Wednesday under rules requiring a mere majority to pass.
Ironically, a major expansion of the health care law — the very event Republicans had hoped to prevent — was unaffected as consumers flocked for the first time Tuesday to websites to shop for coverage sold by private companies.
The administration says the ceiling must be raised by mid-month, and Republicans have long vowed to seek cuts in spending at the same time, a condition Obama has rejected.
The self-funded Postal Service remained in operation, and officials said the government will continue to pay Social Security benefits and Medicare and Medicaid fees to doctors on time.
Lawmakers and the president were still getting paid at a rate totaling more than $250,000 per day for all of them.

The proposed Ohana Kai Village project will be very costly to all of Maui taxpayers and to Maui County workers. All because Jesse Spencer is not required to pay for the following:
* Maintenance of the project. Because Maui County will have to spend money it does not have on maintenance if this project is approved, county workers will be faced with layoffs, shortened work weeks or nonpaid furlough days to make up for the county's financial shortfall.
* Road improvements/maintenance will be required to be done to the existing and already congested streets and highways because of the increased traffic flows from the project.
* Vehicle accidents.The increase in property damage, personal injury and fatal injury accidents will surely come with the increased traffic flows.
* Additional school buses.
* Police Department.
* Fire Department.
* Sewage/water:The use of an already scarce resource - water - and the possibility of a sewage system failure that would contaminate both the aquifer and Maalaea Bay and the already fragile coral reef.
* The aquifer. How long can it supply water to the project and what is its recovery rate, if any?
These are just a few of the things that should make Maui County Council think twice before approving this project.
