Video: Zac Rinaldo racks up 27 penalty minutes in 4 seconds of ice time
Dec 7, 2013, 8:00 PM EDT
The Philadelphia Flyers' uneven play continued on Saturday. Three days after upending the Detroit Red Wings 6-3, the Bullies were pummeled by the Dallas Stars 5-1, preventing their latest bid to climb above the .500 mark on Saturday.
Obviously, this loss can be blamed on the orange and black having to go without Zac Rinaldo for essentially the entire contest. (That's sarcasm.) Rinaldo was kicked out of the game barely one minute after the puck dropped for jumping Stars forward Antoine Roussel.
Why the ban? It probably had something to do with the fact that Rinaldo had only been on the ice for four seconds and appeared to be completely unprovoked.
Rinaldo hopped on to the rink, chased down Roussel, dropped the gloves and started punching him in the face. When his victim fell to the ice surface to cover up, Rinaldo took one last swing before officials arrived on the scene and separated the two.
We have no idea what led to the attack. Per CSN's Tim Panaccio, Rinaldo did not speak to reporters after the game.
In all, Rinaldo racked up 27 minutes worth of penalties—two for instigating, five for fighting, 20 more with a pair misconducts. Amazingly, the Flyers managed to kill the seven-minute power play that ensued.
The wheels would come off in the second period though. Dallas found the back of the net four times, including a hat trick for center Tyler Seguin. Three of the Stars' four goals were separated by a total of 1:02 on the clock.
It was the first time in 28 games as a member of the Flyers that netminder Steve Mason surrendered more than three goals in an outing.
Kimmo Timonen left the game in the second period with an injury.
This was the fourth time the Flyers had a chance to go above .500 and failed. They are 3-4-0 over the last seven.

Doesn't look like there's too many people there! I'll go out on a limb and say the Dallas Stars must not be that popular a hockey team!! : P
- J Stuart - Dec 7, 2013 at 10:49 PM
You must not follow Hockey. Yes the Stars have not been in the playoffs for 3 straight years, but their popularity with the local fans are fine and have had several sell outs (19,099) this year and I've been to two games where there were over 18,000. You must not pay attention to National News either. Dallas is in the middle of one of the worst Ice Storms to hit the U.S in ten years. There were hundreds of Road closures and it was sleeting most of the day. So if you think that Dallas does not have fans, you're wrong. They are just not all wanting to risk their lives to see a Hockey game.
- Mick - Dec 8, 2013 at 2:10 AM
Sorry excuse. Yeah, we know you guys got snow. Big deal. We drive in that crap all the time, to all the games. What is it in Big D? Go big or go home. Yeah well, looks like your folks took the latter. Oh, and congrats on the 3 years in a row, bravo. Real hardcore fan base you got there. Minnesota are the North Stars dummy, you shouldn't have a hockey team. They go to the games no matter what, so shut the hell up.
- luke jenkins - Dec 8, 2013 at 10:55 PM
The difference between what you think we get down here and what actually happens is that it doesnt snow like yall say it does. It ices. The roads have 1-2 inches of ice on them and we are not prepared for that kind of road conditions because our government does not need to keep a stable of snow plows employed. I know some great hockey fans here. I love the stars and so does thousands of others around here. Mick, you should shut the hell up. Talk like that in Texas doesnt fly.
- mike - Dec 8, 2013 at 1:25 AM
I'm more concerned about why the Flyers didn't show up for the 2nd period.
- mickthedick - Dec 8, 2013 at 12:44 PM
they are blaming the weather cos they couldn't practice friday. pussies. i thought they "drive in this crap all the time because we're from up north". hypocrite tards.
- mickthedick - Dec 8, 2013 at 12:40 PM
idiots. ice storm closed most of the roads in dfw. we did not get snow, just ice. dfw doesn't have the equipment like northern states have to treat the roads since we only get ice once a year. pull your fist out of your ass and pay attention.
- braindead - Dec 8, 2013 at 7:10 PM
Do your home work prick head, Dallas had a bad ice storm there was even talk of moving the game. it was a bad storm and Dallas was basically shut down . it was officially a sell out. before you make idiot comments do your home work.
- Z - Dec 7, 2013 at 11:08 PM
Fuck Dallas
- mickthedick - Dec 8, 2013 at 12:48 PM
butthurt? LOL
- BenE. - Dec 8, 2013 at 2:58 AM
The ref went WAY overboard with the penalties. Should have been two for roughing, and two for unsportsmanlike. TOPS. Roussel is a coward. I'll bet the house he was running his mouths in warmups like the rat he is.
- Marvin Monroe - Dec 8, 2013 at 12:11 PM
After the shitshow in the Penguins-Bruins game last night, I have an better appreciation for the refs in the Flyers game yesterday. That was the exact way not to handle a game.
- mickthedick - Dec 8, 2013 at 12:47 PM
trash talking in hockey? NOOOOOOOOOOO WAAAAAAYYYYYY.
- t800m101 - Dec 8, 2013 at 2:45 PM
If Orpik would have dropped his gloves and fought Thornton when he was challenged, the mess that transpired never would have happened. That said, it was a very unfortunate circumstance. I hope Orpik recovers well soon.
- BenE. - Dec 8, 2013 at 4:26 PM
Orpik his fine, he hopped off the stretcher when they got outside the stadium and he greeted his teammates at the airport, where they shared many laughs about their most recent cheap shots.
- Pipes - Dec 9, 2013 at 8:29 AM
Orpik never had to dance with Thorton. Since when is delivering a clean check becoming something you had to fight over?
- t800m101 - Dec 9, 2013 at 2:29 PM
Orpik threw a questionable hit On Eriksson. When you throws hits like that you should be held accountable at times. Too bad Orpik has the gloves cemented on.
- t800m101 - Dec 8, 2013 at 11:30 AM
Typical new NHL completely overreacting on a call. I can see a double minor for roughing, that's it. I like Roussel, but he looked like a total pussy covering up like that, you know your role, live up to it. Also, about time Rinaldo shows some emotion.
- mickthedick - Dec 8, 2013 at 12:46 PM
waaaaaaaaa! crying like a baby
- ericsaxon35 - Dec 9, 2013 at 5:49 PM
LOL, Flyers at it again. Can't play hockey, so they fight and show their impotence as a team for the world to see. Boo hoo.

STAT Position Statement on Evolution
STATFlash:Thu, 11/01/2007
The media at the national and state level have been discussing evolution recently. The STAT Board of Directors updated the official Position Statement on Evolution in February 2006. Below is a PDF document of the official STAT Position Statement on Evolution. It was approved by the STAT Board of Directors on February 4, 2006.
Our current science standards, the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), were adopted in 1998 and include the theory of evolution. The Science Teachers Association of Texas supports the position that evolution is a major unifying concept in science and should be included in K-12 science education standards,frameworks and curricula. Evolution should continue to be included in the new revision of the Science TEKS which begins in 2008.

Friars Respond to Occupy Movement
Toni Cashinelli
Tuesday, November 22, 2011
Intense and committed, they've been likened to anti-war protesters of the 1960s. But huddled around fires in tent-city encampments, they look more like the jobless, itinerant masses of the '30s.
In reality, Occupy Wall Street is a mix of idealistic youth, veterans, the homeless and middle-class victims of down-sizing. In two months this grass-roots movement has caught fire and blown westward from New York City, the place where it began as a campaign against greed. On Tuesday, under orders from New York
Mayor Michael Bloomberg,
riot police dismantled the original tent city at Zuccotti Park and arrested 100 protesters. That night in Cincinnati, the
Rev. Jesse Jackson
stoked a defiant Occupy Cincinnati crowd gathered in Piatt Park, where they had recently been evicted. Fueled by a well-organized social media campaign, the movement has made its way around the world. And in cities where the Occupy message is loudest, Franciscan friars are listening.
"These people are doing something worthwhile, quietly and faithfully,"
David Moczulski
says of the youthful residents of Occupy Pittsburgh, a camp of about 100 tents at Mellon Green, a park owned by the financial firm BNY Mellon. "They're very respectful and non-violent, walking around with signs, chanting, trying to engage people in conversation" about the growing gap between rich and poor. "It's basically [about] the big bank bailout. Nobody's been held accountable for the misdeeds of the last few years." In a statement on its website, Occupy Pittsburgh spells it out: "We write so that all people who feel wronged by the corporate forces of the world can know we are your allies."
Describing himself as "an aging hippie," David says, "It's a great thing for me to see young people involved in this. I've thought about participating" in the Pittsburgh camp, made up primarily of underemployed college graduates and veterans. "It would be good if we did that as a Church." So far the closest thing to that is a document on global finance issued Oct. 24 by the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace. "Catholic social teaching and the Occupy Wall Street movement agree that the economy should be at the service of the human person and that strong action must be taken to reduce the growing gap between rich and poor," Vatican officials told the
National Catholic Reporter.
In Detroit, the poor joined forces with Occupy protesters just two blocks from St. Aloysius Parish. "Some of the Occupiers here have let homeless people share their tents" at the campsite at Grand Circus Park, says
Al Mascia
. While the parish has not endorsed a political agenda, "They are presently within our parish boundaries and so, according to
Pastor Tod Laverty
, deserving of our pastoral care. Our parish nurse, for example, was there helping to assist with health and wellness issues and giving out flu shots. Their food commissary was shut down due to health reasons so the Canticle Café carts and volunteers provided some food and hot beverages" last week during a cold snap.
While Occupy Detroit's days in the park are numbered – protesters plan to move indoors next week – Al says "their presence seems to have made downtown a more peaceful place. They seem to be in my estimation people of good will." And he is inspired by the witness of "young people who are willing to step up to the plate and challenge what they consider to be injustice" – the way their parents did in the 1960s.
(The Occupy movement is about more than economic disparity. To read a list of Occupy Pittsburgh's grievances, visit
We Have to Work Together
Colin King
and I headed downtown one sunny morning a few weeks back to check out the Occupy Chicago scene. We took the bus down, walked a few blocks and found a small morning crowd, 10 to 20 people. The presence of two brown-habited men drew nearly all the attention as we approached. Quickly we were met with a few smiles and hellos and within a minute a hyper man with sign in hand approached us and asked us if we were friars from St. Peter's. We cleared up the details and we made fast friends with him based on his appreciation of the friars in the Loop. We asked him many questions and he answered with jokes, stories and gestures that were somewhere between rant, rave and comical.
The group that morning included some local Catholics who had wondered down the street from a weekly morning prayer service for immigrants. Others standing around were beating huge drums and holding signs for passers-by and cars to see. At the foot of the Bank of America building, across from the Federal Reserve of Chicago and adjacent to the Chicago Board of Trade, this motley crew stared down the giants, maybe best understood as the opponents of the Occupy movement.
The faces of the movement had in their number both the well-groomed and the hardened disposition of street dwellers. A man Colin and I spent time talking to was there for the first time and within minutes he left only to return with trays of hot, fresh coffee. As the group caffeinated, a throng of young, college-aged women and men came down the street, dressed for interviews, that is to say they looked really, really "classy", and they flooded into the opposition fortresses. While these people were passing by the Occupy fort-let, smiles were exchanged and a gracious and unexplainable peacefulness filled the air. I felt deeply at that moment that despite such different reasons for being on the Chicago streets that morning, no one hated the other.
About the same time Colin and I were being video interviewed by some college students who were collecting footage and audio for a documentary. They wanted every side of the story. They asked why we were there. I said, "There is an increasing gap between the rich and the poor, and that is a problem. I came here to experience how this movement is or is not responding to that problem." As I was being videotaped, the sharply dressed young people were passing. Something hit me like a ton of bricks then and there. As I, in my shabby cross-like garment of a leper, watched the next generation of Wall Street business people pass by in their finery, I realized despite our differences we have to work together to rectify the concerns that brought this Occupy movement to the streets. If we stand on our street corner yelling and they go to work day after day, we are both going to get tired, and someone will win and someone will lose. Standing in that juxtaposition I yearned deeply for a common ground in which people's needs can be heard, pondered and met. I left with one thought: Neither side is "right". But as the Occupy folks occupy and the bankers go to and from work, my hope is that they begin to find common ground.
People Before Profits
I do hope that through this movement our nation will have a discussion about income inequality. Before entering postulancy, I was a public school teacher in a wealthy suburb of Cincinnati. This is an area where Homearama was building multimillion-dollar homes and even created a waterway more than a mile long for residents of the exclusive community to enjoy. However, I also had students who were on free/reduced priced breakfast and lunch. Students who lived in a two-bedroom apartment with their parents, siblings and grandparents. Students who could not afford to attend summer camp or summer school because they had to earn money to support the family. The disparity was shocking to me. One year I was allowed to attend a workshop about socioeconomic diversity. The information presented was based on the work done by
Dr. Ruby Payne
and her "bridges out of poverty" strategies. The presenter shared much of the same information that is being given now about the income inequality that really became noticeable around 1979.
One of the Order's JPIC documents we read in Postulancy talked about putting people before profits (much like the Occupy movement is saying now).
Mark Cuban
, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks NBA team, had an interesting post on his blog a few weeks ago. He said, "CEOs all say, 'We are acting in the best interests of shareholders.'... Shareholders, whether they own shares directly or through mutual funds or pensions, do not live in a corporate vacuum. Their lives are impacted by far more than the share price of a stock.
Every layoff in the name of more earnings per share puts a stress on the economy, on the federal, state and local governments, which is in turn paid for through taxes or assumption of government debt
by [wait for it] the same shareholders CEOs say they want to benefit." (His emphasis).
I do not think this situation is as simple as "Goodies vs. Baddies", but a painful question does need to be asked: Who is my neighbor, whether that be in a small suburban city or across and outside of boardroom tables, and what obligation do I have to care for my neighbor?

Craig has offered me whatever I want to ride from his fine establishment and treat them like my own. At least temporarily. A chance to try some other machines in the sticks. Or maybe he was getting tired of seeing the Vespa all the time in pictures. I've been turning things over in my head since we first discussed this back in February and just recently decided to give it a go. Over the coming weeks and months you'll be seeing periodic posts bearing the title New Wheels in the Sticks with stories and photos reflecting my experiences with motorcycles and scooters that are not my Vespa GTS250ie. I'm not sure what to expect but am open to the adventure.
A few words about Kissell Motorsports.
You can find the dealership in State College, Pennsylvania on West College Avenue. It's the kind of place that has a lot of things I like.
Unless I have a specific reason to be there I tend to follow the same pattern in the store. Walk in and absorb the energy, scan the place for familiar faces, and then walk over to the Vespa section. After almost 5 years on a Vespa scooter they have not lost their luster. And Piaggio continues to deliver interesting machines. And colors. Like the Vespa GTS300ie in this picture.
On to the Triumph section, a quick look at helmets and then either a visit to a Kawaski KLR or off to the back where the pre-owned machines live. I'm predictable.
Things get dicey from this point. I glance furtively at the Ducati's for fear that I will be identified as unworthy of entering that section of the store. The Ducati's sit there oozing power. They are seriously imposing. I believe this to be true. I also believe that doughnuts or ice cream are fine for breakfast. I need to make some adjustments and modifications in things.
So Craig and I have worked out an agreement and we are embarking on a new project. Not only is he supportive of me riding his wares he's leaving it up to me to write what I think. I almost feel like a junior moto-journalist. More likely a moto-essayist. As I embark on this journey I'm curious as to what I will find out about myself and motorcycles. And how my obsession with the Vespa will fare in comparison. I'm also going to use this project to reach beyond what I usually do on the scooter and talk to people who ride other things. Find out what makes them tick.

I purchased the Army soldier last year and did some additional painting on it: officers stripe on the trousers, gold on the cap and painted out the sergeants stripes on the sleeve. Looked great but did not last as the arm fell off.PLEASE NOTE THE ARMY UNIFORM HAS CHANGED FROM GREEN TO BLUE!!

Sculpture at Scenic World
Now in its third year, Sculpture at Scenic World 2014 will see 30 artists exhibiting in Australia's only rainforest exhibition. The 25-day exhibition includes diverse Public Programmes including the popular Sculpture for Small People workshops.
Held between 24 April – 18 May 2014, the outdoor exhibition provides local, national and international artists an exciting opportunity to exhibit their works within the natural splendour of the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains. An independent panel have selected 30 artworks by 30 artists to exhibit on the valley floor, and a walk along the elevated boardwalks will give visitors the opportunity to view world class sculptures in an unparalleled setting.
Exhibiting artists will also have the opportunity to participate in Sculpture Otherwise an indoor exhibition of small scale works.
A new initiative for 2014 is the Sculpture at Scenic World and Blue Mountains Cultural Centre partnership which will see one artist afforded the opportunity to exhibit at the Cultural Centre from 9 June – 7 July 2014.
Read the full media release here.
An estimated 60,000 international and national visitors will view Sculpture at Scenic World. Artists will exhibit their works and will vie for awards and acquisitions including:
- $20,000 Scenic World Acquisitive Award
- $5,000 Artists Peer Award
- $2,000 Scenic World Staff Award
- $1,000 People's Choice Award sponsored by The Carrington, Blue Mountains
- Award trophies designed and hand-crafted by internationally acclaimed, local glass artist Keith Rowe.
Revered Australian visual artist, Ken Unsworth AM, has created an eight metre sculpture for the 2014 Sculpture at Scenic World exhibition. Unsworth's commissioned site-responsive artwork, Harlequin's Shuttle, is installed under the canopy of the Jurassic rainforest, alongside the exhbition's selected artists.
As part of the 2014 exhibition's Sculpture Projects initiative, Unsworth was invited to create a site-responsive installation. Exhibition Manager, Lizzy Marshall, says "We are very excited that Harlequin's Shuttle responds to not only our natural landscape but embraces the flow of visitors who also make up this environment."

The Federal Government under its TQUAL Grants initiative has allocated $93,035 to Sculpture at Scenic World to support the 2014 exhibition.
The then Senator Doug Cameron said the funding cemented the position of the Blue Mountains as a premier destination for the arts, providing another compelling reason for visitors to explore our region. Read the full media release here

Review: Little Panasonic Viera Packs Big Picture For Small Price

Impossible Instant Lab Shipping August 29th for $299
When The Impossible Project announced its Impossible Instant Lab back in September 2012, it turned to Kickstarter to raise $250,000 to fund the project. After the Internet got wind of the smartphone-to-instant-photo printing device, the fundraising campaign blew past its goal and ended up with a total of $559,232 from 2,509 supporters.
Today the company announced that the Impossible Instant Lab will be hitting store shelves on August 29th, 2013 for a retail price of $299.

From Berkeley County:
I'd like to give a heart-felt thank you to the good folks at the Kearneysville Sheetz. Early Sunday morning, I had a flat tire on my way home from work, and the folks at Sheetz - Sean, Ruth, Renee and Stephen - were so kind to lend me their phone to call South Berkeley Wrecker Service and Jimmy came from South Berkeley. He was wonderful too. Thank you all so much for helping me! God Bless.
From Martinsburg:
On Black Friday at the Target Store, there was someone who turned in my granddaughter's purse with everything intact. She was visiting from Virginia for Thanksgiving. Thank you and God bless you for making it truly a day of Thanksgiving.
From Martinsburg:
Plea bargaining is an undeserved gift to criminals and lets criminals off the hook while receiving all the benefits in jail of free, comfortable room and board and full medical care, to name only a few. This, while their victims and their loved ones suffer severe physical and mental pain for life.
From Martinsburg:
I read in the paper where the GOP doesn't want to raise taxes for the rich, but they are willing to not give the cost of living to people who are on social security. They want to take that away from us. I guess that's the way to balance the budget off the senior citizen's backs, not the rich's.
From Paw Paw:
While watching the Christmas parade in Paw Paw on Saturday, I felt a lot of pride for having organizations and churches work together. The band looked sharp. Hats off to the parade committee and all who participated for a job well done!
From Martinsburg:
I'm wondering why all these organizations send you these self-addressed free envelopes. I've got enough to pay for a room! Most all the organizations send these return-address labels. I think they ought to send you something more than that because they just want money.
From Charles Town:
I want to express my thanks to my granddaughters who want to give their Christmas presents to needy military families. It will be done. I'm sure they will be appreciated.
From Hedgesville:
Dr. Queen is the president of the Berkeley County school board. He not only has a right to be concerned about what goes on in our school system, he has an obligation to be concerned. We are extremely fortunate to have Superintendent Arvon, Dr. Queen, our school board and the whole board office to be leading and conducting our school business.
From Martinsburg:
Do you like the stop signs at the new Olive Garden restaurant? Me neither! How about replacing them with "Yield to Pedestrians" signs?

Dr Rosato has developed tailored, small-scale biogas solutions to generate methane and electricity and deal with a range of pollution problems principally for the agrifood industry, including highly problematic mozzarella effluent. Learn what biogas is and how to determine the actual (rather than theoretical) yield for your substrate. Find out how to choose the right plant technology and correctly size the plant for your needs from among many competing manufacturers who are often guilty of a 'one size fits all', theoretical approach.

It's an evening filled with lights, noise, family and friends - and more often than not some celebratory champagne when the clock strikes midnight.
When most people think of after-school activities, their minds tend to gear toward the athletic feats; football, volleyball, basketball, hockey, the list goes on.
Little more than one week has passed since the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., that left 26 people - 20 of them children - dead. The shock and evil behind it seems to have forced many to ask and wonder why.
It looks like winter has most definitely arrived in the Brainerd lakes area this year. Blanketed in white and temperatures expected out of Minnesota winters, this year looks to be the complete opposite of what was seen less than a year ago.
Ongoing since spring 2012 - with discussion and disputes dating to years before that - construction on College Drive was completed in fall 2012. Included in that completion, the city of Brainerd introduced drivers and the community to roundabouts Oct.
Essentially, Brainerd Parks and Recreation threw them a bone - one big enough for all the dogs in town.
Brainerd City Council members faced a difficult decision Monday night in regard to Brainerd Fire Chief Kevin Stunek and his pay as a full-time department head and as a member of the fire department's paid on-call staff.
What do you want to see in the Brainerd community and how do the citizens and Brainerd City Council make that happen?
That and other questions were posed Tuesday evening at the The Center, formerly the Brainerd Lakes Area Senior Activity Center, in the first of monthly community meetings organized b...
With the College Drive Project wrapped up, Brainerd City Engineer Jeff Hulsether wrote up the final cost of the project during the Brainerd City Council meeting on Monday night.
Brainerd City Council approved the final 2013 budget and property tax levy of $3,953,486 Monday night, keeping it the same as the preliminary budget - presented Dec. 10 - and the same as the 2012 levy.
Of the total levy, $1.

SB Dance: WTF!
by Gavin Sheehan
Posted // 2012-11-29 -
SB Dance had a very successful season last year, and with its latest addition to this year's lineup with Cultural Confidential, are on par toward having another great year. But now, it's time for fans of the small independent dance company to help out the company as its annual WTF! fundraiser show this Saturday, Dec. 1. The WTF! in this case stands for Wine, Theatre and Food, as the evening will be filled with events to take part in, including a silent auction and dance party with the company's staff and dancers.
Before the affair kicks off, I chat with Carolyn "Winnie" Wood, who was named the associate director of SB Dance this year, about her extensive career and time with the company, along with some of her thoughts on the event and the local dance community. (
All pictures courtesy of SB Dance.
Carolyn "Winnie" Wood
Gavin: Hey, Winnie. First thing, tell us a little bit about yourself.
Winnie: I am part of the Performing Arts Faculty at the Wasatch Academy, a college-prep International Boarding School with 300 students from 36 countries and 24 states. I have been teaching and developing the performing arts for the last 12 years. I have a 37-year, very complicated resume in theater and dance that pretty much includes every aspect -- costume, lighting, stage management, ticket sales, dancer, actor, director, writer, producer and, of course, audience.
Gavin: How did you first take an interest in performing arts, and what were some early influences on you?
Winnie: I was painfully shy as a young person so I mainly did painting and drawing; dance got me out of my shell as a teenager, but I really didn't take up acting until I was in my 30s.
Gavin: You received your bachelor's in theater and dance from California State University at Northridge. What made you choose its program, and what was it like for you earning your degree there?
Winnie: I originally went as a 2-D art major, but ended up creating an independent major in dance and theatre and getting a B.A. in it. I didn't choose a program as much as I made one up for myself that I was interested in, and God bless the Cal State University system for having that option available.
Gavin: What made you decide to come to Utah and start working with RDT?
Winnie: The husband of a friend at CSUN traded jobs with a faculty member at the U of U for a year and she told me she thought RDT was great and that I would like it, so I took a summer workshop with them and then got a job doing wardrobe and sound on the road, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Gavin: You're one of the founding members of the Dance Theatre Coalition. What was it like forming that organization while still performing with other companies, and what do you think of it still running 30 years later?
Winnie: I have always loved doing things, so forming an organization whilst doing whatever else I could think of was just what I did. I have always been blessed with many many talented and inspiring colleagues, and the energy that creates is what keeps me going. I guess I'm still doing that today, although maybe I've slowed down a little. I am thrilled and delighted that DTC is still in operation today. I love Amy Caron's work, and anyone who will wear a wedding dress for a year is a girl after my own heart.
Gavin: You've been involved with local dance companies and productions for over 30 years. What's kept you going and continuing to be involved with it for so long?
Winnie: The pure joy I get doing the work. Working with dancers and actors of all ages and watching them connect with each other and then with an audience is an act of love for all concerned. There is nothing else like it.
Gavin: When did you first meet Stephen Brown and how did you both become friends?
Winnie: I think we met when he danced with RDT ... he was 19 or so I think, and I choreographed a duet for him and another guy. I can't recall exactly how we "became friends" but we have always shared a certain approach to our work, and when that happens you tend to want to keep talking about it because it helps your ideas take shape, so that's how I look at our relationship -- is that being friends? I don't know. We have a deep and abiding understanding with no egos in the way and we have a hell of a great time working together.
Gavin: On the website it says you were an unofficial mentor of SB Dance for years. How did that partnership start up, and what was it like for you helping SB Dance grow?
Winnie: I guess Stephen asked me if I would come and look at what he was working on. Not sure what it was exactly ... it was probably some of the first things he did. He is always looking for real feedback, which, believe me, is difficult to come by. Mostly people are too afraid of offending you if they don't like it or don't know what to say even if they do. I am not exactly famous for being tactful and he was not interested in tact so we started talking some pretty serious turkey and it felt like we were getting somewhere so we keep doing it.
Gavin: What made you join the company in 2010 and start working on projects like
Yoga Confidential
Winnie: Stephen long ago took a turn away from concert-style modern dance, which I always thought was great. When he started
Yoga, The Musical
, the first incarnation of the Yoga series of which
Yoga Confidential
is the latest, he definitely was stepping hard in the more theatrical and written-word direction. Since I had a lot of experience as an actor and director but also had the dance background, it gave us more common ground than ever.
Gavin: What was it like for you becoming the associate director last year and taking an official leadership role in the company?
Winnie: It was kind of funny, actually. I had just been thinking maybe he was getting tired of talking to me about everything when he called and said he wanted to make my role official. Go figure. Anyway, I was delighted to accept, though I don't feel much different about the work we do than ever -- we have always had a very rare and amazing working relationship that I would not trade for anything.
Gavin: Coming up we have the WTF! show. Tell us about the show and how it got its start.
Winnie: WTF! is our annual fundraiser and it is a kick-ass party. SB Dance has got some of the best performers in the city and this is a chance to see them in a more in-your-face setting -- it is wild and crazy and not to be missed. I like to think of what we do as the "lively arts," and if this gets any more lively, the cops will have to be called!
Gavin: How did you go about picking the performances that will be showcased, and how was it for you helping put it together?
Winnie: We are always just working on new stuff; whenever we can afford to bring the dancers and actors in, we start putting together pieces and ideas of pieces and then put it out there. We also pull from past things that we think will fit the evening. For WTF!, the room is full of people and food and wine so the space is limited for the performances, so we sort of tailor stuff to fit the venue then later we will expand on it and it will go in the next piece. The thing it most resembles is probably rodeo.
Gavin: What are your thoughts going into the show and what's your goal for this year's fundraiser?
Winnie: My goal is always the same: to make ever more people aware of the company. Stephen is an amazing voice and the performers who we are so fortunate to work with deserve to be seen -- they are world-class and the work is truly unique and very very exciting.
Gavin: Going local, what's your take on the Utah dance scene, both good and bad?
Winnie: I don't so much know about the dance scene these days as I used to since I no longer live in SLC, but I know that the bigger dance companies struggle financially and the small also struggle. It's tough out there, you know? There is, and always has been, a huge pool of very gifted dancers and actors in SLC, so it's a great place to work as a choreographer and director. It's a bitch to make a living, though. I've been asked if the conservative nature of Utah is at all stifling, but I must say I have never found it so as an artist and I do think the audience who enjoys the cutting edge, the wildly innovative, is out there somewhere.
Gavin: Is there anything you believe could be done to make it more prominent?
Winnie: The "mainstream" press could be a lot more supportive, but this is always difficult; they have their own agenda. In this day of Facebook, Twitter, blogs, etc., I have high hopes that through social media and blog spots such as this one, we really can reach the people I think would become our audience 'cause there is still nothing like live theater and I think there is a resurgence of interest in it. You can't stay home staring at a computer screen all the time, right? Get out and see some people sweat and cry and dance and yell at you and stuff -- then you'll have something worthwhile to put on your Facebook page.
Gavin: What's your opinion on other local dance companies and the work they're doing to promote the art?
Winnie: Don't know exactly... I think it's the same postcards and posters and such as ever. Not sure if they have much online presence, but couldn't say for sure.
Gavin: What advice do you have for anyone looking to get into professional dancing for a career?
Winnie: A trust fund would be good. But no, seriously, there is no more glorious vocation if you want to work your ass off for no money and get a lot of bruises and injuries that you must look at as badges of honor, or not. There is no feeling like it in the world, though.
Gavin: What can we expect from both yourself and SB Dance over the rest of the year and going into next?
Winnie: I expect to turn 60 before the end of this year. Other than that, I never know exactly what to expect and I like it that way. As for SB, I can't wait for the next thing to come screaming out of his pure brain, but I sure as hell don't know what it's going to be.
Gavin: Is there anything you'd like to promote or plug?
Winnie: I hope I have just plugged the hell out of WTF!?! I am serious! Be there!

text: Screening and Prevention Screening tests look for certain cancers, even before there are symptoms. Early detection of cancer makes it easier to treat. Some screening tests help prevent cancer, by finding and removing conditions that may lead to cancer. That's why cancer screening is such an important part of taking care of yourself. Find information here: Mammography, used to find breast cancer early, when it's most treatable Colonoscopy, used to find and remove polyps, the precursors to colorectal cancer Pap tests, used to find cervical cancer early, and the HPV vaccine to protect from cervical cancer Fallopian tube removal to help prevent ovarian cancer Screening for lung cancer, to find it early, when it's most treatable Hepatitis C testing, used to find the disease early, when it is treatable, and to reduce the risk of liver cancer Learn more about having a colonoscopy or a mammogram When should I get a mammogram? How long does it take? Does it hurt? What happens if they find something? What is the best method of detecting breast cancer as early as possible? What is digital mammography? Is a mammogram my only screening option? Do you recommend self breast exams? What should I do if I have implants? What is BSGI? Does it matter where I get my mammogram? Is a colonoscopy my only screening option? What are the symptoms of colon cancer? Who should be screened for colorectal cancer? Why should I get a colonoscopy? Watch video here Colonoscopy A colonoscopy can help prevent and find colorectal cancer. Learn more about this screening, including how to make an appointment as well as alternative screening methods. Still feeling a bit apprehensive about having a colonoscopy? Watch our interview with Dr. Frankhouse (see above) and find out why this screening is so important. Mammograms Mammograms help physicians find breast cancer at its most treatable. Learn more about this screening, including what to expect and how to make an appointment. If you are younger than 40, watch this story on breast cancer in young women, and what you can do to protect yourself. Pap smear and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Test The Pap and HPV test can help prevent cervical cancer or find it early. The Pap test looks for precancers which are cell changes on the cervix that might become cancer without appropriate treatment. The HPV test looks for the virus which can cause these cell changes. Let us help you find a physician so you can make an appointment for your screening today. Also, watch Dr. Audrey Curtis talk about the HPV vaccines available to protect women from the types of HPV that cause most cervical cancers. Fallopian tube removal Legacy Cancer Institute recommends that certain women consider fallopian tube removal as a way to prevent future ovarian cancer. Learn more about our recommendation and the science behind it. Watch the TV story to hear from Legacy Cancer Institute experts. Lung cancer screening Legacy Cancer Institute recommends that current and former heavy smokers between the ages of 55 and 74 be screened for lung cancer, using a low-dose CT scan. Learn more. Hepatitis C testing A one-time blood test for hepatitis C can save lives. The test can catch the disease before symptoms appear, and in time for possible treatment. Infection with the hepatitis C virus can lead to liver cirrhosis and later to liver cancer. Risk factors for hepatitis C include past IV drug use, blood transfusion or organ transplant before 1992, and work-related exposure to blood.

I'm a big fan of zombie movies, zombie video games and general paraphernalia that goes along with the undead. So, unsurprisingly, I loved this and waited patiently for my pre-ordered flesh eater to arrive and scare the pants off anyone who comes to visit. I was not disappointed. The paint work is great and the blood splat detail is awesome, it feels pretty sturdy too. This was well worth waiting for and I swear that its eyes glow in the dark! This is scary good fun.
Summer horror
Looking out amongst the beautiful flowers and pottery in my mother's garden, you can't help but feel a slight serenity course through you. Listening to the birds sing and the neighbours gardening, you can feel a wonderful sense of summer. Then, from the corner of your eye you see something staring back at you. The hair on the back of my neck lifted as I spotted the blood. Tiny claws seemed to be reaching out for me as I slowly tried to back away. What could I possibly do to escape this grey creature that is clearly out for my blood? With no one else in the house, I turn and flee. Giggling to myself, I wonder how long it will take my mum to spot him and react. After all, only I could be devious enough to plant a Zombie Gnome!
Zombie Gnome from gnome
Just when you thought gnomes were boring, strange and perhaps just a little "meh"... think again as Zombie Gnome is here. Keeping the garden safe from any living creature that shouldn't be there, his blood soaked visage and reaching gait, is the perfect anti-gnome for the gnome-less who ever lifted their eyes at the very thought. But beware, make sure you chain him up during daylight, if you know what's good for you...
I bought three of the Zombie Gnome for myself as I am having a 40th birthday 'Halloween' party in a few weeks. They are so cute, I have put them in my garden already and, no doubt, they will remain long after the party has been and gone. I feel safe in the knowledge they are guarding my agapanthus lilies from attack!
Zombie Gnome
Although it took a little time to receive the order ( I suppose zombies shuffle slowly along ) when it arrived I was very pleased. It is well made, well painted and delivered well packed. I have positioned it in the garden looking as if to attack standard gnomes, and it gave the children and neighbours a good chuckle !

Giving Mom breakfast in bed on Mother's Day might be a bit of a challenge for some of us. Either we're not great cooks, or we don't have a large enough bed tray.
(Really, Mom doesn't care. We're certain she would love anything you did for her on Mother's Day!)
The alternative is to take Mom out for brunch. So many advantages: the kitchen stays clean; you get to dress up; and you have the opportunity to show off Mom. Plus you get to eat some good food, too.
So this week's Readers' Choice focuses on Best Spot for Mother's Day Brunch. Beginning today -- Monday, April 30 -- and through 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 2, we'll be asking for your recommendations for who has the best Mother's Day brunch spot in town.
This would be a place where you can get fancy breakfast dishes with some lunchy items as well, plus perhaps indulgences such as desserts, mimosas or Bloody Marys.
Give us your recommendation in the comments section below. With your help, we'll put together a list of nominees. Then look for our poll on Thursday, May 3 and vote! We'll select a winner at 5 p.m. Friday, May 4 and announce it in a story on Saturday, May 5.
In judging, we'll consider comments, poll votes and reviews in our complete directory of local businesses. Be sure to check out our contest rules in the PDF at right.

A Saturday Stroll With Packers TE Tom Crabtree
Tom Crabtree stood on stage and told all of us he hoped never to see us again.
No, the Green Bay Packers tight end didn't go all "Jay Cutler emo" on us. What he meant was that he didn't want to see us at the 2013 Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) Walk to Cure Diabetes because he wanted a cure to be found by then and therefore nullifying the need for a walk. People in attendance, including yours truly, applauded.
That's why we were there. We weren't there to talk football (although I sheepishly admit I asked a few football questions), we were there to spend time together and hear stories of people's heroic battles against Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) of which there obviously is no known cure.
This cause means a great deal to Crabtree personally. His wife Chelsea was diagnosed with T1D when she was four years old. He lives the disease every single day of his life, and so do many others. More than 80 people are diagnosed with T1 each day and more than 3 million Americans currently have the disease.
Tom and Chelsea served as ambassadors for the 2012 JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes in Green Bay. However, knowing Tom and his knack for social media and how he enjoys interacting with his fans, you knew he was going to take it up another notch.
Hence, "Team Crabtree" was born. Tom (and his publicist Alex Tallitsch from First String PR) sent out tweets and Facebook message asking fans to join his team and raise money for the walk which occurred this past Saturday, May 5th. The goal for the team was $5000.
The team in the ended up raising over $12000. I did my small part and raised $305.00.
I arrived at the walk site in De Pere around 9 am and upon walking up to the registration area, I was immediately greeted with a hearty handshake by Tom. You could tell how much the event meant to him. I was honored to be a part of it.
Tom of course brought some of his friends along and by friends I mean Packers. Offensive lineman Marshall Newhouse took part and so did Tim Masthay and his wife Amanda. Tight end Ryan Taylor was also there and so was some wide receiver named Jordy Nelson.

Blakely resident Tom Dubas has launched a Facebook page calling for Mellow's name to be removed from the park. Dubas wants to rename it in honor of Pennsylvania Army National Guard Sgt. Jan Argonish, a borough resident killed in Afghanistan in 2007.
"He was just a good person, and I just felt that something should be done to recognize his contribution," Dubas said of Argonish, who was 26 when he was killed. "Then, when the other incident occurred with the state senator pleading guilty to federal charges, I felt it was a very poor message we were sending by keeping his name on that park."
The Facebook page has garnered more than 350 "likes" since being created Tuesday night.
Mellow Park was named after the former Senate Democratic leader in the early 1990s. Mellow pleaded guilty in a public corruption case and will report to federal prison on Jan. 15 to begin a 16-month sentence.
Council President Joseph Quinn said residents would have to present a petition to the council to put the question on the election ballot.
"Personally, I think the senator has done an awful lot of good, especially in Blakely borough. At the present time, I don't think I'd want to change it," he told The Times-Tribune of Scranton, though he said he would accept residents' input. "If the people wanted it, that's what council would do."

Season 2012/13
On this day: 18 March
- 18 March 2013 09:36
- Posted by @porter_mcfc
Looking back through the history books for the events, signings and memorable matches that happened on this day in City's history.
Saturday 18th March 1933
The Blues returned to the last four of the FA Cup having lost to Arsenal at the same stage the previous year and Wilf Wild's team were more determined than ever to make it to the final. Wild had fashioned a side capable of ecstatic highs or demoralising lows – if ever a season when the words 'typical City' were first said, this was it! The game against the Rams proved to be exciting and ebbed and flowed and the 51,961 crowd lapped it up. Goals from Ernie Toseland, Fred Tilson and Jimmy McMullan proved enough to send City through by a scoreline of 3-2, though they would lose 3-0 to Everton in the final.

Open Source Software Works Around China's "Great Firewall"
Journalists at the Olympic Games 2008 in Peking report that they do not have unrestricted Internet access. The GPL'd OpenVPN software can easily work around censorship of this kind.
IOC President Jacques Rogge recently backpedaled under heavy fire when it became known that the promise of "unrestricted" Internet access for the press has not been kept. Users of free software can only shake their heads at the turbulence this has caused, because software such as OpenVPN will tunnel firewalls like China's "Great Firewall" without any trouble.
For more details read our report on "OpenVPN counters censorship".

Long ago, I labeled MJF, Mary Carillo, & Pammie Schriver the Three Witches of ESPN2. You think MJF is bad, you should have heard Carillo a few years back. Thru '06 & '07, every word outta herf mouth about Masha utterly dripped hatred. Since she did the Olympiad with Bob Costas in '08, Carillo has become more of a political heavyweight & has to watch herself.
Actually, the worst venom now is from Pammie, who CBS thankfully spared us today.
I can barely watch these matches on ESPN 2. Pam Shriver makes me wanna lay in the road.
The Witches' own bias may play into it, but obviously directed matters of policy are coming down to them in texts from boardrooms. Remember, there is big money riding on all this stuff.
There is virtually NO happenstance in which matches we are allowed to see & not see. The player systematically blacked out at Miami was Vera, the top Russian. You notice that, you KNOW "there's somethin' goin' on" -- So you gotta wonder what ELSE might've been pulled on Zvonareva in the dark. And I gotta ask why her agents, IMG, did nothing about that.
Maria appears to have gone unmolested. But then, it's difficult to target two top Russians at the same time.
Maria put up a very brave fight in the second set. There were lots of deuces in both sets so I think the scores don't give a true picture of how close the games were. They could have gone either way but today was not Maria's day. They both played brilliantly but at the end Vika was stronger.
I am happy for Maria to be back in the top 10 and hope she continues to stay healthy and play consistently to maintain that level.
There IS one upside to not winning Miami. IF she had, the mouthpieces were gonna demand she be ready to take another major like, RIGHT NOW -- up the ante excessively to potentially sow seeds of disappointment, y'know?
Mary Carillo was scripted with a REVISED story on Maria's shoulder injury. I'm not getting into that until I can review the tape & make sure I have the quotes absolutely exact.
Well, haven`t watched the match but based on the result I can tell that Maria didn`t start well on the other hand Vicky was well steady as usual. SO well deserved from her part but I'm not gonna celebrate however happy that Maria has improved and that should be a positive sign for her and her coach. I think they can build some great future together, so let's wish them well shall we?
Yes you are right. I can add that this time Vika had more Willpower than Masha because she won the final.
Increasingly positive stuff from Maria in 2011 :-) Most notably the development in her game which Paul has already stated and the steady improvement in her results as the year is progressing - Quarters at Auckland then 4th round at Melbourne, semis at Indian Wells and now a Miami Final! if she follows that trend we'll be seeing some titles coming her way sooner rather than later!
Now we know she isn't playing Charleston, which i think many of us expected, i'd say its a sensible choice, she deserves/needs a rest. Going to be hard for us going 4 weeks without a real competition, but hey ho we've gone longer without seeing her (; Long may Marias resurgence to the top of the game continue! DAVAI! DAVAI!
Wouldn't be surprised if the rankings on Monday bring a tear to my eye
Well said guys!! and thanks to all of us sticking together to support Maria during easy and/or tough time. This is what Life is all about "stooding up together throughout a rough time", so GOD BLESS Maria and ALL OF US!!
BTW, If you have a moment I suggest you listen to Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, great SONG!!!
There is that Bahamas exo--high profile installation like Atlantis MIGHT arrange some camera.
Maria's never been on the Charleston draw or given a wild card. Think that was just one of those deals to get more matches if she went out earlier from Miami.
Princess will be there, Gorgeous Goerges, Wicky, Kiri & a few other Russians. No broadcast before Thursday but I will post the info on Live Streams. Somedtime during the week streams should also appear from Marbella.
Apparently she was going to ask for a wildcard if she didnt make the semis, so yeah. Everyones had a different story to tell, up until last night when it was finally cleared up for the majority.
...I'm thinking Stuttgart?!
Dunno but possible, I guess. The lineup has slack:
Vera goes to Stuttgart after Moscow Fed Cup April 16-17.
Maria does the Bahamas exo April 16, so she could go on to Germany too.
Although I will miss watching Maria playing matches, I think it is wise to have a rest after this intense week in Miami especially having sprained her ankle.
Rafa vs Nole was brilliant today. Shame someone had to win.
Philli, you followed this stuff for months on the yahoo group & know very well: Masha knew she wouldn't play the April tie before the one in February. Because it was already decided Vera would play the next one. See the new Fed Cup thread in Tennis Chat here. There are a number of players Shamil needs to qualify for London 2012. Maria now needs to play one more tie, wheras Zvonareva needs two.
I would like to see her playing Charleston, but also understand her decision to take a break. Let's see if she will play Stuttgart, or if she will be back on court only for Madrid and Rome tournaments. There is the exibition match in Bahamas. Let's see what will happen.Victoria will play in Marbella and Caroline in Charleston, I think these two girls have good chances to win these tournaments.
Hi, sunstreet! Congrats on your degree. Sorry about the 'puter hassles. Been there, done that. Look forward to reading your posts again. Yeah, yeah... you're way "old"... lol!
