The St. Louis Blues on Saturday night became the first team to clinch a spot in the NHL playoffs with their 3-1 victory at Tampa Bay. Heading into Sunday's games, the Blues were five points clear of the Rangers for first overall in the NHL.
The overriding narratives of this Blues' season has been the coaching change to Ken Hitchcock from Davis Payne after 13 games and the defensive play Hitchcock has demanded from his players.
How dominant has that defensive play been? Best in the NHL? Yes. Best in the history of the NHL? It's getting close to that.
After Saturday night, St. Louis has allowed 1.85 goals per game. The NHL is full of advanced defensive systems and scoring is not what it used to be in the go-go 1980s, but no team in this current era has allowed fewer than two goals per game over the course of an 82-game season. New Jersey under Pat Burns allowed exactly 2.00 goals a game in 2003-04. St. Louis under Joel Quenneville allowed 2.01 in 1999-2000.
You have to go back to the six-team 1950s to find teams that allowed fewer than two goals a game in those 70-game seasons. Detroit did it five straight times (1950-51 through 1954-55), Toronto did it three times (1950-51, 1953-54 and 1954-55) and Montreal once (1955-56). The record for fewest goals against is shared by the 1953-54 Maple Leafs and the 1955-56 Canadiens at 1.87 (131 goals against). St. Louis remains a shade better than that with nine games left.
There are two other rare factors in St. Louis's success. One is the shared goaltending situation between Jaroslav Halak and Brian Elliott. The Blues are on pace to become the sixth Presidents' Trophy-winning team since 1988 without a goaltender to play more than 2,900 minutes. (Strong tandems were more common before that.)
The other notable factor is the Blues' scoring. Entering play on Sunday, T.J. Oshie was the Blues' leading points producer with 50 and David Backes was the top goal scorer with 21. Oshie was 63rd in the league in scoring; Backes was 62nd in goals. Those rankings are by far the lowest for a team that has finished first in the NHL standings in points. And no team since the expansion in 1968 has had its top point-getter and its top goal scorer both finish outside the top 20 in the league.
The worst combined finish would be the Detroit Red Wings of 2003-04. Pavel Datsyuk was 22nd in the league in points (68) and 19th in goals (30). For the previously cited Blues of 1999-2000, Pavol Demitra led in both points (81) and goals (28), which placed him 14th and 26th, respectively.
Only three other teams had its top point-getter finish outside the league's top 20:
• Dallas (1997-98, Joe Nieuwendyk, 69 points, 22nd);
• New York Rangers (1993-94, Sergei Zubov, 89 points, 22nd);
• Philadelphia (1979-80, Ken Linseman, 79, 25th).
But all three had a top-10 goal scorer.
Only one other team failed to place its top goal scorer in the top 20, the 1996-97 Colorado Avalanche. Adam Deadmarsh's 33 goals put him 21st but Peter Forsberg's 86 points put him 11th in the league.
– On the face of it, news of the Blues clinching a playoff spot seems to be off according to the math: Heading into play Sunday, there were still nine other teams in the Western Conference that could finish with at least 100 points, which is how many St. Louis has. Let's break it down, assuming the Blues lose all of their remaining games:
Calgary, which is in 11th place, can finish with 100 points by winning all of its remaining games but would lose out to the Blues on the first tiebreaker, regulation plus overtime wins. St. Louis has 42 ROWs while Calgary has 31 with 10 games left. ROW is a new tiebreaker for this season to lessen the importance of shootout wins.
Colorado, which is in seventh, only has eight games left and can finish only with a maximum of 99 points.
Los Angeles, in ninth, and Phoenix, in 10th, can finish with more than 100 points if they win the rest of their games. They don't play each other again, so one can't eliminate the other from reaching the maximum. But they both play eighth-place San Jose. The Kings have three games left with the Sharks, the Coyotes have two. Either one, by winning out, would supplant San Jose in the top eight and leave room for St. Louis. If both did it, they would also bump Colorado out.
Or St. Louis can win more games and make it all moot.
– Detroit only managed one point on its three-game California road trip, but the Red Wings did get Datsyuk back on Saturday night in San Jose. He had not played since Feb. 21 because of injury.
His skills were on display with this ridiculous bad-angle goal from between the bottom of the faceoff circle and the goal line.
– The Kings' 4-2 win over Nashville on Saturday night puts them at a projected point total of 93.6. Rounding up, we'll make the new cutoff line in the Western Conference 94 points.

Aside from the obvious easy answer of free booze, I enjoyed the social aspect of meeting with bartenders, managers, and patrons. Having a purpose for being at a bar (aside from simply drinking) justified a lot of hell raising…definitely a great summertime activity.
Rock & Roll Hotel ended up being a pretty significant summer spot. Having been there a number of times before, I decided that Rock & Roll Hotel should be the first bar I reviewed (familiar territory, my sort of scene, etc). After a warm welcome and an ungodly number of shots, I left the bar a bit too drunk to even pretend I was going to review another bar that night. I go back a few weeks later with some friends, including a friend who had never been there before. I convinced him that the side rooms were actually hostel/hotel type areas (hence the name Rock & Roll Hotel), and that you could rent out a couch to pass out on for the night. When we sent him up to the bar to reserve a couch to sleep on for the night, the look on the bartender's face was absolutely priceless.
I float between a lot of different tribes; I enjoy live music, DJs, and generally non-mainstream stuff (Jonah), but have Lucas-like tendencies to raise some hell, drink some cheap brews, and destroy you in beer pong.
Wake up at 9:30am. Do something physically active, either football in the park, softball on The National Mall, or skateboarding around town. This would be followed by brunch anywhere with bottomless mimosas, and then continued outdoors somewhere (ideally a rooftop bar) with more beverages. Some Ethiopian food for dinner, followed by a night of live music and DJs on U Street or H Street. Maybe Ben's Chili Bowl before bed, because no day in DC can truly be PERFECT without Ben's Chili Bowl.

Velasquez, who turns 24 in June, debuted with the Astros last year in a swingman capacity. He made seven starts and appeared 12 times in relief, racking up 58 strikeouts in 55 2/3 innings, a reflection of big-league-ready stuff. Chris Crawford wrote in our Transaction Analysis of the Giles trade, "At worst, Velasquez marks a strong central piece as a potential high-leverage reliever," but the Phillies will let him start until he proves he can't, and his ceiling could be substantially loftier than the late-inning floor.

The latter hit .273/.357/.438 in 133 plate appearances split between Double-A and Triple-A last year and has the athleticism to play up the middle, but with his 26th birthday looming in May, Broxton was running out of time to prove his major-league value.

Sanchez pointed out that "it could take several months" for the Gurriels to receive clearance from Major League Baseball, by which point the younger Gurriel might be tempted to weigh the benefits of waiting until the fall to secure a major-league contract.

Ron Cook of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette wrote Sunday about the value of the Bucs' pitching coach, Ray Searage, who is widely regarded as one of the game's best teachers, able to extract maximum value out of arms who come to the Steel City with middling reputations. General manager Neal Huntington is able to rummage through the bargain bin, confident that every pitcher he finds will exceed expectations because, as Cook put it, "Ray will make him better." But Huntington is only guaranteed that comfort for one more year, because Searage's contract expires at the end of the 2016 season.

For Immediate Release
(Asuncion, Paraguay - February 23, 2011) Mark Lopes, USAID Deputy Administrator for Latin America and the Caribbean and Maria Cristina Lazo, Executive Director of the International Cooperation Agency of Chile (AgCI), signed a Memorandum of Understanding to pursue joint development cooperation in third countries. The two nations have also signed a trilateral agreement to help the Government of Paraguay strengthen its capacity in customs administration, export promotion and support to farmers.
Going forward, USAID and AgCI will collaborate to reduce poverty, strengthen institutions, improve economic development and expand economic and social inclusion across the Western Hemisphere.
"This Agreement is yet another step in advancing the Obama Administration's commitment to engage Latin American and Caribbean governments as equal partners in the region's sustainable development", Lopes said. "Chile has made remarkable strides in building an open, inclusive and prosperous society and we want to help promote the Chilean experience to help solve other challenges in the Hemisphere."
USAID and AgCI are partners for development. This agreement is being signed today, but the joint collaboration between Chile, the United States and Paraguay to identify specific areas of work has already begun" Lazo said. "We believe this is just the first step of many joint efforts in the future."

A laughing matter
|By Gabi Moore
Therapist promotes humor as healing toolAmanda Bernes is creative, fun and loving. Everyone in the room can see this, but she seems to have trouble spitting out the words herself. She's introducing herself to Cindie Alwood, and the rule is she has to provide three positive adjectives about herself. She nervously comes up with these traits, and attention turns to Alwood, who's equally hesitant.
"My name is Cindie," she said, and paused. "I'm creative, hard-working and intelligent."
These unusual introductions were the way comedian Karen Williams started her Healing Power of Humor workshop Saturday at the Capital Area District Library. The workshop, sponsored by the Women's Center of Greater Lansing, was about learning to tap into your sense of humor and the spontaneous joy inside you.
"Our joy doesn't come from where we work, who we work with, who we love, how we dress, our race, our class, our education," Williams said. "Spontaneous joy is inherent in a life that appreciates just being."
The introduction exercise was part of acting out one of Williams' three Cs: compliment, compassion and clarity. Being able to compliment and be happy with oneself is part of realizing who you are and being truly happy just to be you. In her short "Caring for Self Handbook" she handed out to the workshop participants, Williams wrote, "Remind yourself that you have a right to be happy. You are worthy of respect. Affirm you! Make up affirmations just for you. Put them where you can see them every day. Repeat them often. Make up new ones." Williams writes her own affirmations in lipstick on her bathroom mirror.
Williams was invited to do the workshop by Alwood, a co-director of the Women's Center. On Friday night, Williams headlined the Women's Center She Laughs V event, where five comedians performed to celebrate the nonprofit's fifth anniversary. Alwood said the

Erskineville resurgence continues
The frenzy of a few weeks ago might have evaporated from the Sydney auction market, but there still seems to be plenty of buyers for the right properties.
There were 285 homes listed to go under the hammer on Saturday, up from a paltry 41 on the Easter weekend, but well down on the record-high 1112 that were taken to auction the weekend before Easter.
Australian Property Monitors put the auction clearance rate at 78.4 per cent on Saturday evening.
Some of the hottest of those on Saturday had multiple buyers circling and most sold for well over their reserve price.
One of them was in Erskineville where six groups registered to bid for a three-bedroom terrace with no parking in Rochford Street, one of the suburb's best. It went to a local buyer, Debbie Petlueng, who paid $1.28 million, which was $20,000 more than the reserve and, according to the agent, was the highest price paid in the street for a house without parking.
Like most of those interested in it, Ms Petlueng was attracted by its location just down from the village shops and a five-minute walk from King Street and the station.
''It is the most perfect location for my situation,'' said Ms Petlueng, who has lived in Erskineville for the past three years and has a daughter at the local high school.
''I've been casually looking [to buy] for a couple of years, but intensely looking for a couple of weeks.''
Unlike the Victorian properties around it, the three-level terrace, with two living areas, a garden courtyard and master bedroom with en suite and balcony is only 17 years old and was bought a decade ago by the vendors for $581,000.
Since then Erskineville has enjoyed a resurgence and is now what the selling agent Shane Turner, from Travers Gray Real Estate, said was ''a very sought after area, and one of the most beautiful in the inner west''.
Despite the result, the bidding was slow to get started. Auctioneer Ricky Briggs, from Cooley Auctions, refused an opening bid of $900,000, which he said was too far below the $1.2 million mark where he thought the bidding should begin. Eventually the auction kicked off with a bid of $1.1 million and from then on there was spirited bidding.
Afterwards Mr Briggs said while houses were still selling under the hammer for good prices he had detected a growing wariness among buyers.
''They're more savvy and they're more cautious than they were before Easter,'' he said.
Yet there seemed to be little caution at the auction of an unrenovated bungalow in Eastwood, one of the city's best-performing suburbs over the past 12 months, which Australian Property Monitors found had price growth of 33 per cent in that time.
A dozen groups registered to bid for the three-bedroom house at 23 Oakes Avenue, which had only ever had one owner, and which ended up selling to a downsizing couple for $1,335,000. The agent, Heath Dockary from McGrath, would not disclose the reserve but said the sale price was ''well above'' it. The guide during the campaign had been $1.15 million, he said.
Out west at Blacktown, seven bidders fought over a fibro house that had been in the one family for more than 50 years. It ended up selling to a pair of investors for $540,500 – $70,000 over reserve and a result that stunned agents Mark Vella and Brandon Mercia, from Starr Partners Blacktown.
''I thought it might get $500,000, but it far exceeded that,'' Mr Vella said. ''I think it was the location that everyone liked. It is close to the station and the shopping centre.''

SUN PRESS Newspapers
The Maple Grove boys' soccer team held on to its winning record after the toughest week of the season, where it faced the three top-ranked squads in the state. The Crimson went strong into the competition, posting wins over Hill Murray, Park Center, Champlin
Park and second-ranked Anoka, while falling to Blaine and Southwest.
"It's gone pretty well,'' said Kevin Hoff, a junior and one of two captains on the team. "We've gotten results. Our losses, we could have prevented. We've always bounced back and picked our heads up pretty quickly after losses and ties.''
Maple Grove had a hard-fought 2-1 win against Park Center. After the Pirates drew first blood 10 minutes into the game, the Crimson's Garrett Maupin hit a corner kick that dinged off the back posted and popped out of the goal. Hoof was there to drive the ball into the back of the net. In the second half, captain Trevor Gifft was fouled by the Pirates, leading to a free kick. Hoof hit the ball into the penalty box, where Gifft finished just 10 minutes into the second half.
Against Champlin Park, Gifft split the defenders with a pass to Reid Diamond, who carried the ball into the box, shot and scored. The two teams traded penalty kicks in the second half, with Hoof scoring for the Crimson to give MG the 2-1 win. Maupin's free kick against Hill Murray provided the only score of that game.
Maple Grove kept the game against the top-ranked Blaine close, losing 2-0. The Crimson knew they were in for a tough battle from the start, with coach Gregg Leininger urging them to get the ball "over the trees," a reference to the size of the Bengal's back line. The Crimson did get the ball in the back of the net off a corner finished by Ted Janka. The goal was called back for a foul.
Blaine scored the only goal of the first half with three minutes left. Crimson goalie Ben Nelson saved a breakaway just minutes into the second half, while Daniel Cortez later cleared the ball off the line following a Blaine corner kick. A late foul gave Blaine a penalty kick with two minutes left, which they converted. Nelson and the Crimson shut down Anoka 1-0 during the second big game of the week. Nelson saved both a free kick and a point blank shot after a breakaway in the first half alone. The Crimson scored with Jared Schweiss converting a cross from Michal Berratt. The second half was a nail biter. Johnathon Piotraschke cleared a quick transition when Anoka got behind the Crimson defense, while Ali Kowsari tamped down a 3 on 1 attack. The Crimson ended up with a 1-0 win at home against the second-ranked team in the state.
Maple Grove fell to third-ranked Southwest Saturday, Sept. 21. Southwest scored twice in the second half, once on a corner kick and once on a second effort after a throw in. Nelson saved a rocket from inside the box in the second half, while Ryan Petersen had a perfectly timed slide tackle to prevent a breakaway in the first half.
The game ended with Maple Grove walking off the field with 23 seconds left. Leininger said that he decided to pull his players after a series of controversial action by the officials. Leininger said a linesman yelled at one of his players and then grabbed and bear hugged a Crimson after a scuffle with a Southwest player. Two minutes later, the referee gave a Crimson a red card after a foul. "It was a foul but not a red card," he said.
With 23 seconds remaining, Leininger decided to pull his players off the field.
"They (the officials) were playing games with the kids," Leininger said. "I pulled the kids off from a situation that was not safe. It had nothing to do with Southwest. We shook their hands. The game ended fine with Southwest."
Having endured the tough week, the Crimson are well positioned for the second half of the season, Hoof said.
"We're looking for more improvement,'' he said. "We'll find more results, have more ups and downs, but we'll keep fighting. I think we can make it deep into sections and maybe do well into state, based on how we're playing against the best teams like Blaine and Anoka.''

The Protection Of Life
Mr. SMITH of New Jersey. I am very grateful to be here for this hour. And I hope some of my colleagues will join me on a very important discussion about embryonic stem cell research and the huge alternative--``the'' alternative--adult stem cells, that have proven beyond any reasonable doubt that it is not only ethical, but it works.
Madam Speaker, at a time when highly significant--even historic--breakthroughs in adult stem cell research have become almost daily occurrences, and almost to the point of being mundane, President Obama has chosen to turn back the clock and, beginning just 3 days ago, will force taxpayers to subsidize the unethical over the ethical, the unworkable over what works, and hype and hyperbole over hope.
Human embryo destroying stem cell research is not only unethical, unworkable, and unreliable, it is now demonstrably unnecessary. Assertions that leftover embryos are better off dead so that their stem cells can be derived is dehumanizing, and it cheapens human life.
There is no such thing as a leftover human life. Ask the snowflake children, Madam Speaker, ask their parents. Snowflake children are those cryogenically frozen embryos who were adopted while still frozen. This past Monday, I had the privilege of being with several of those children. They look just like any other kid, any other child. And those kids could have been subjected to embryo-destroying research or they could have been poured down the drain. But thankfully, the donors, the biological parents, decided that they are better off alive and flourishing. And these kids, like so many of the other snowflake children that I have met in the past, were just like any other child.
Life is a continuum, Madam Speaker. It does not begin at the moment of birth. It starts at the moment of fertilization and continues unabated, unless interfered with, until natural death. Birth is an event that happens to your life and to mine, it is not the beginning of life.
Madam Speaker, a recent spectacular breakthrough in the noncontroversial adult stem cell research and clinical applications to effectuate cures or the mitigation of disease or disability have been well documented. For several years, significant progress has been achieved with adult stem cells derived from nonembryonic sources, including umbilical cord blood, bone marrow, brain, amniotic fluid, skin, and even fat cells. Patients with a myriad of diseases, including leukemia, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, lupus, sickle cell anemia, and dozens of other diseases have significantly benefited from adult stem cell transfers.
In 2005, Madam Speaker, I wrote a law, the Stem Cell Research and Transplantation Act of 2005. It was legislation that created a national program of bone marrow and cord blood, umbilical cord blood--or that blood that is found in the placenta--that is teeming with stem cells of high value that can be coaxed into becoming pluripotent, capable of becoming anything in the human body.
We know for a fact that cord blood stem cells can mitigate, and in some cases even cure--and there have been several--those suffering from sickle cell anemia. One out of every 500 African Americans, unfortunately, have sickle cell anemia. And cord blood transfers have the capacity and the capability to effectuate cures or the mitigation of that disease. And we have several examples.
I remember when the bill was stuck--first here, and then on the Senate side. We were able to bring people, including Dr. Julius Erving, to a press conference to appeal to the House and Senate leadership to bring that legislation forward simply because it would save lives, but it was being held hostage by the hype and the hyperbole of embryonic stem cell research, which has not cured anyone. The legislation passed the House. Finally, it was dislodged from the Senate and became law. And now we have a nationwide network overseen by HRSA, under the Department of Health and Human Services, to grow our capacity--the number of specimens of cord blood stem cells--to type it, freeze it, use best practices, and promote cures.
Now, the greatest of all breakthroughs--the greatest, in my opinion, and in the opinion of many eminent scientists--is what is known as induced pluripotent stem cells. And I say to my colleagues, and I say to anyone who may be listening on C-SPAN, iPS cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, are the future and the greatest hope for cures. They are embryo-like, but they are not embryos. There is no killing of an embryo to derive the stem cells.
On November 20, 2007, Japanese scientist, Dr. Shinya Yamanaka, and Wisconsin researcher, Dr. James Thomson, shocked the scientific community by independently announcing their ability to derive induced pluripotent stem cells by reprogramming regular skin cells. And unlike embryonic stem cells that kill the donor, are highly unstable, have a propensity to morph into tumors, and are likely to be rejected by the patient unless strong antirejection medicines are administered, induced pluripotent stem cells, iPS cells, have none of those deficiencies, and again, are emerging as the future, the greatest hope of regenerative medicine.
Mr. Obama is way behind the times. Making Americans pay for embryo-destroying stem cell research is not change we can believe in--far from it--it is politics.
A decade ago, the false hope of embryo-destroying research made it difficult to oppose, no doubt. There was a lot of hype, a lot of hot air--much of it well meaning, perhaps--but it was very misleading. That is no longer the case. So the question arises; why persist in the dehumanizing of nascent human life when better alternatives exist, alternatives that work on both ethics grounds and efficacy grounds? Nonembryonic stem cell research is the present and it is the future of regenerative medicine, and the only responsible way forward.
I would be happy to yield to my good friend and colleague for any time he would like to take.

Why You Should Get Involved – By Neighborhood Team Leader and Woman for Obama Verta L.
Neighborhood Team Leader Verta L. is a Woman for Obama in Lancaster County. Read our interview with her below on how she became involved with the Obama campaign in South Carolina and why she feels it is important for others to join the movement.
Why did you get involved with the Obama campaign?
I am involved in the re-election of President Barack Obama because I believe in his philosophy of working to create the highest quality of life for all citizens. I read both of his books prior to him becoming a presidential candidate in 2008. I was so impressed with his dedication to the community, that I vowed that if he became a presidential candidate, I would wholeheartedly support him. That is one of the best vows I have made in my lifetime.
Why do you think it is important for others to get involved in the campaign?
It is important to be involved in campaigning for President Obama because the public can benefit from learning about his policies. Many people are easily misled by negative media reports. It is important to base decisions on facts, and I have noticed that many people start to see different views when they are engaged in a healthy debate. Volunteers help share the President's policies with their community and make sure people have the facts straight.
What can you tell us about the team you've been building in Lancaster?
One advantage of my team is that they are a committed group of supporters. Since this is one of their core values, they tend to follow through on their responsibilities. They work well with each other, and most had a positive relationship with each other before joining the team. I feel I contribute to their commitment by setting a good example; praising them; providing a comfortable, positive environment for them to volunteer; and soliciting their ideas in establishing our goals. The chain reaction of my team is that they also motivate me. Through my leadership, I hope to bring out the best in them so together we can help re-elect President Obama in 2012.
If you're interested in getting involved with our team, click on the Volunteer button above and we'll be sure to get in touch.

The World is Crazy, You Don't Have to Be
I love all your suggestions and try to do most of them most of the time. I have to admit its easier now that I'm retired. I agree that shutting off the tv and computer are so good for your soul. Sometimes my hubby and i just look at each other and say "TURN IT OFF". The awful spewing of hateful talk is damaging. Get out , breathe the fresh air, and tune yourself to nature.
5 Easy Ways to Live in the Moment
Great advice, I totally agree with you!
The best thing I did to get off the gerbil wheel was retire. At 58! Now I know not everyone can do that but my husband is 9 years older than me and his retirement fund is what we live on since I was a Christian preschool teacher/director without any monetary benefits. I say that because I had the best job in the whole wide world educating those precious little ones. Rewards of a different kind. I have always tried to live in the moment but it was much harder when I was younger and thought I had SO much to do. Now we live on our own schedule. Not one ruled by work duties. We have time to reconnect with friends and family. And we have time for travel. All is good😌

Hotter water for San Diego's fire department
State commission launched gender-discrimination investigation
Dorian Hargrove 11:30 a.m., Sept. 24
(Page 3 of 6)
The research had been funded in part by the U.S. Department of Energy, and the department's then-Secretary Spencer Abraham called a news conference in Washington to announce Venter's breakthrough. Abraham's spin was that future versions of Venter's designer microbes could be engineered to break down pollution or produce energy.
But Hamilton Smith, a Nobel laureate who became Venter's colleague and key scientist, introduced another potential, as Venter's autobiography recounts:
"Although we had rehearsed several times what he [Hamilton] should and should not say, he seemed to forget all that when he was asked by one reporter about the possibility of making deadly pathogens.
"After Ham blurted out that 'we could make the smallpox genome,' I interrupted to point out that while that was indeed possible, it was known that smallpox DNA is not infective on its own, attempting to pour at least a little cold water on Ham's speculation.
"Ham interjected, 'But you and I discussed ways to get around that,' and then turned toward me and said with a sheepish grin, 'I probably shouldn't have said that, huh?'
"Fortunately, our exchange did not go further than a paragraph in the New York Times and the coverage was mostly favorable."
How successful Venter will be in trying to exploit for commercial gain the new technology of genetic engineering is anyone's guess. Teams of scientists from around the world are feverishly trying to produce artificial life, and the DNA-sequencing technology that Venter helped pioneer is now in wide use. His critics say Venter cuts ethical corners, that he can be boorish in personal encounters. They say that he has used his nonprofit foundation for personal gain and cashed in at the expense of his company's shareholders.
There is no doubt that Venter often gets what he wants, though the process can be as messy as the DNA stews created by his shotgun method.
Craig Venter was raised in Millbrae, California, a town just west of San Francisco International Airport. His mother was from the Ocean Beach neighborhood of San Diego, his father a Mormon from Idaho.
Part of his legend says he used to race airplanes down the runway with his bicycle. Venter recalls in A Life Decoded: "…as the DC-3 edged closer, I became giddy with anticipation. With my head down and my heart pounding I began to pedal the bike as hard as I could down the runway…" Venter tells more stories of his adventures with childhood friends at the airport. He concludes: "Then one day we rode to the airport and found that our racing days were over. A new fence had been erected around the runway."
After high school, instead of heading off to UC Berkeley, like his brothers, he moved to Newport Beach and hung out at his grandmother's house, enrolling in junior college and spending most of his time surfing.
In 1964, with the war in Vietnam starting to escalate, he joined the navy to avoid the draft and ended up in San Diego. He trained as a medical corpsman, assigned to the navy hospital in Balboa Park, where by his account he performed spinal taps and liver biopsies before heading out to La Jolla to surf every day at 3:00 p.m. The specter of Vietnam, however, was never far from his mind.
"Most corpsmen served as medics in combat, where they did not last long," Venter notes in his autobiography. "The Vietcong would pay a bonus to any soldier who could show he killed a corpsman, usually by bringing back a trophy such as his ID card. After six weeks in the field, a corpsman had only a fifty-fifty chance of survival.
"But because I was highly valued by the doctors in San Diego, each month when the draft list came up, my name was absent — sometimes removed at the last minute. I ultimately avoided the draft for fourteen months before my name was finally posted.
"But the posting included a footnote: I was to be sent to the naval station in Long Beach, where I would run the emergency room. I was stunned, relieved, and delighted. The head doctor had a big grin and was pleased with his last-minute save."
According to Venter's account, jealousy between two nurses he was dating would do him in. "I was surrounded by navy nurses, but as an enlisted corpsman I was technically prohibited from dating them since the nurses were officers. That did not stop me, of course. First it was the head nurse. Then I became more interested in her friend — so interested, in fact, that I began to date her instead. This would turn out to be a big mistake.
"The head nurse whose friend I had been dating was annoyed when she found out that, once again, I had managed to avoid Vietnam. As I was leaving, she told me to get a haircut." Venter told her to "fuck off" and headed out the door to the beach.
"Before I had even gotten to my motorcycle, two MPs arrested me and told me I was to be held for a court-martial. I was quickly found guilty of disobeying a direct order — my long blond hair was damning enough — and sentenced to three months in the brig at Long Beach. I faced hard labor, a criminal record, and a certain posting to Vietnam or a dishonorable discharge from the navy."
Venter recalls that he was given two weeks' leave before having to report to the brig to serve his sentence. He spent them at his grandparents' house in Laguna Beach, where he hatched a plot to get out of his sentence by tampering with his orders.
As Venter recounts it, he discovered that he was carrying two sets of orders: the original orders sending him to work in the Long Beach hospital and the revised orders, following his court-martial, sending him to the brig. The new orders were attached to an envelope containing the old ones.
"This was 1966. Computerized records did not exist, so when military personnel moved to new assignments, they carried all their records with them. I thought about my high-speed court-martial and began to wonder if the copies of the orders inside the envelope were the same as the [version] on the outside.
Zoinks!! Craig Venter is Apocalypse, and J. Robert Beyster is Mr. Sinister in the flesh. Yay! :) I knew those comic books were real. See mom I told you so.

Mark is familiar to many from his frequent appearances on television demonstrating first-hand the quality and efficiency of Euro-Pro products.
Euro-Pro prides itself on innovation, ease of use and competitive pricing. The company's products are widely distributed through major big box retailers, specialty stores and through its websites.
This is the mop I received. It retails starting at $149
Product Description:
For the first time, Shark has combined their trusted super-heated steamwith a gentle, non-toxic cleanser. The Shark Steam & Spray™ is perfect for consumers who need extra cleaning power to deep clean and sanitize all hard floor surfaces.
Whether it's a quick clean, a general whole house clean or a deep floorclean, the Steam & Spray Mop has the power to handle the job, thanks to its three distinct ways to clean:
- Steam & Spray Mode is perfect for tough messes like stuck-on dirt or heavy traffic areas.
- Steam Mode tackles everyday cleaning and sanitizing jobs.
- Spray Mode is ideal for quick, on-the-go messes and for use with Shark's SaniFiber™ Disposable Pads – the first disposable pads offering the same cleaning performance asShark's reusable microfiber pads. Use this setting for convenient, cordless cleaning.
Additional features include Shark's washable micro-fiber pads to loosen, lift, and lock in dirt and non-toxic multi-purpose cleanser that's safe to use around kids and pets.
My Review:
This mop is very easy to set up. It comes with easy to follow directions with pictures. After you have it all set up, it's very easy to use. You can pick between steam, scrub, or both. There is a button at the top on the handle for the cleaning spray. It does make a ticking sound as you use it for the cleaner. Don't worry, this is normal. Be careful when using the steam feature. The steam actually comes out hotter than you would think for a mop that runs on batteries.
Everything you need comes in the box; the mop, cleaner, and 4 AA batteries. You also need to add water. It suggests for best results use distilled water. It even comes with a funnel to help add the water to the mop.
We tried this mop on a floor that has been cleaned recently with a traditional mop. We were shocked at how the Shark mop picked up dirt and grime the other mop missed. We will only be using the Shark mop from now on.
Don't let the $149 price tag scare you away from this mop. When it comes down to it, you really do get what you pay for. Now my floors will be cleaned better than ever.

Bang Bang presents Fake Blood photo gallery
charlie raven
Ticket sales have ended
Main Room:
Fake Blood
Mr. Noisy & Bitr8
Jamie Ings
Box Bar:
K1R3Y & Friends
For those that remember that Sold Out Friday night back in February when a man by the name of Fake Blood made his astounding Junk debut, don't need reminding how truly amazing it really was. If you missed out in February make Friday 24th February a date for diary as Bang Bang welcomes back Fake Blood.
For a man who has taken on many aliases in the past it is unsurprising that his DJ Sets are of truly jaw-dropping quality. Anyone who has heard his essential mix which was recently voted number 4 in Radio 1's 2009 essential mix poll will know what we mean. His seamless mixing of big room electro, big beat, house and bassline whilst dropping many of his own prolific productions, as well as some of the most box fresh beats will leave you stunned.
If you have been raving in the past couple of years then it is likely that you will have heard one of his tracks. In fact these days it is almost impossible to go to any dance music night without hearing one of his massive tunes. Whether it's the anthemic rave break in "Mars" or the recent dance anthems "Fix Your Accent" or "The Dozens" or perhaps one of his many remixes for Dan Le Sac, Armand Van Helden, The Kills, Hot Chip or Little Boots. You're bound to have heard at least one.
Support on the night comes from our crack residents team, expect Mash Up, Electro, B-More, Fidget, Crack House & Ghetto Beats.
The anticipation has already built up to a point of boiling here. We seriously can't wait, as we welcome back one of dance music's finest to Junk!

Recently, we learnt a very big lesson about owning a dog and deciding to take the dog camping. We love camping, in fact, I think the whole of Canada goes camping in summer and spring. It is a huge thing here. I am not complaining at all because I love it and I love eating marshmallows on the fire too.
We have a little gorgeous dog, Ananda, a small beautiful Yorkshire and while we went camping we let the dogs roam around however had them tied to a tree with an extended cord so they could enjoy their time. Bigger dogs would not be as much of a danger however the smaller dogs are lower to the ground. This particular campsite had these rusty small couldron type things that you put your wood in and light for the fire. You don't think much of it. The dogs could feel it was hot so wouldn't get too close. What we didn't really take into consideration is that as dogs walk around, their eye level is at a much lower level to the ground than ours, so the ash from the fire as it bursts can be closer to a dogs eye, than a human eye. A piece of ash or burnt substance popped up and landed in her left eye. At first she whimpered a little and we thought maybe the heat just scared her but then we saw a white film over her cornea and we straight away went hunting for a vet.
The vet was close enough and she removed the white film from the eye and started her on antibiotics. The substance that they put on, turns a really bright green if there is deeper damage to the cornea. At first it was a murky green but when we left and went back to pack up, it got brighter. It was time to take her to an eye specialist. We quickly discovered that in all of Quebec there are only three dog eye specialists. If anyone out there wants to study something, great opportunity to go into this field as you will be well off in no time due to demand.
The lovely Dr Elise Perierre saw us that same afternoon and she was fantastic. A really great Dr and a great practice. They have all these thank you cards on the wall with wonderful praise because they are so compassionate and lovely with their patients. They decided to treat the eye aggressively in the next 24 hours so that we could try and recover her vision. Three different drops every two hours and pain tablets. Thank goodness for pet insurance. On that note, pet insurance costs double in Canada, than what it does in Sydney Australia. You get 80% of the benefit back. It is still worth it but I just don't understand why it costs double.
As good dog parents, we treated her with love and care and after 24 hours she was already making great progress. Her eye was bright green, and still is at times, but getting better. The specialist is expecting a full recovery and we are all happy for getting help immediately and going to see the specialist first thing. If we waited, the outcome would not have been the same. It's been over a week, we have decided to keep the cone around her neck on to avoid her scratching the bottom part of the eyelid which was burnt and still healing. She hates wearing the cone but she got used to it. She is a good dog, rarely complained or whimpered and she is moving around with her cone head. At first, when the vet puts on the cone head, it looks fascinating and sometimes you just can't help but giggle a little but it's part of the process. I would laugh if i had to wear a cone around my head. I would look like a lion with my hair.
My advice to anyone with a dog. Carefully decide whether it's best to bring the dog camping or not, and if you decide to take your pet, make sure you tie them freely to hang around the tent and away from the campfire. It is much safer. Its always important to know wherever you go, where a vet is close by and also a human hospital for any emergency. Being prepared is always better than trying to work it out at the time, with the stress of the emergency.
This is the couldron in the back that the fire is lit in.

But also Leites was flopping to the canvas every time Silva engaged a bit. Regardless it was shit. Joe Silva needs to give someone to the Spider thats going to make him fight. Cheick Kongo should fight Shane Carwin next. Krystof's kimura game is on lock. It was sad to see Chuck go out like that but im pretty stoked to see Shogun back in the game. There is alot of interesting matchups that could come out of this win for him.2 Weeks ago in Sports

Media Announcement: Spyder and Battery621 will proudly host an evening with Chris Davenport during our June First Friday event on June 3rd. Davenport, a professional free ski mountaineer sponsored by Spyder, Kastle, and Red Bull, just climbed to the summit of Mount Everest and skied the Lhotse Face less than a week ago! This adds to his personal collection of mountaineering feats, including climbing and skiing all 54 of Colorado's 14,000 ft. peaks in one calendar year.
He also produced, directed, and starred in a documentary about his mountaineering adventures with fellow Spyder teammate Stian Hagen in Antarctica during 2010 called Australis: An Antarctic Ski Odyssey.
Chris will be around for a media meet and greet from 5-7pm in the Spyder gallery, signing both of his books, 50 Classic Ski Descents of North America and Ski the 14ers. Earlier appointments are also available. We'll also have signed large format photos for sale, with the proceeds benefiting the Colorado Avalanche Information Center.
Additionally, one lucky winner will go home with a full outerwear set from Dav's personally designed White Spyder collection from Spyder's 2011-2012 outerwear line. The outfit includes a Black/Yellow Eiger Jacket and a Yellow Norwand Pant. Guests can enter the contest via Battery621's Facebook page on their mobile phone at facebook.com/Battery621.

Timber Framer
Carolina Timberworks crafts hand made timber frames and post and beam buildings, and we install our work anywhere in the United States. How does the process work? We hand cut, pre-assemble, and carefully fit your timber framing in our shop, take it apart, label each piece, and deliver it to your site–where it goes together surprisingly quickly because we send the same craftspeople who spent weeks cutting and fitting your timber frame in our shop to your site to professionally install it.

By Emmanuel Etchells-Ayre – United Kingdom on March 30, 2011
I am old enough to recall when schools had morning prayers, and religious instruction, When Churches held an annual Whitsunday walk about, where each would walk the boundary of their individual parish, and arrange to meet up with other churches for joint prayers and services at certain points along the boundary.
These walks have been or were at one time a mainstay of the Churches evangelical work as they were a witness and a testimony to God and His Christ, during these walks others would tag along as and when the mood took them, everyone would have a new outfit, women and girls would have home made mainly hand sown dresses , the men would have their best suit (usually their wedding suit if they were married) and wear a Bowler Hat, or a Flat Cap, each Church had it's individual Banner carried between six men two holding the poles it was attached to, and four who would hold on to the guy cords to prevent any wind dragging it in any direction (The wind bloweth where it listeth).
Following behind this huge Banner, would be the individual sections in which the Church held sway, the Women's Sunday School, Children's Sunday School etc: each with their own Banner many of which were hand embroidered by the women and young girls. The men would likewise have their own section with it's Banner, as would the Boys Brigade and Scouts along with the Girl Guides and Brownies.
Each Church was given permission to hold their march on that day, and they were usually shepherded by perhaps two or three Police Officers for road safety, and in the extremely rare event that some unbeliever might cause a fracas.
These fantastic displays of Faith have now ceased to occur, WHY ? Political Correctness of course, one cannot allow the established faith of Christianity to offend minority groups , whose faiths do not openly flaunt their beliefs, oh no SIR , that cannot and will not be allowed, and it is the authors firm belief that it is due to the following reasons that Church membership has declined so dramatically :-
A) Removal of Godly prayers and worship in schools.
B) Denial of the God given right to worship and praise in public.
C) Fear of local authorities of offending minority groups.
D) Fear of the Police that should such a walk be organized and enacted , there will be violent protestations from minority groups.
E) The reticence and in many cases cowardice of the Churches themselves to stand up and be counted.
F) The interference of Brussels and the British Parliament in the inalienable right of every Christian to openly practice and display his faith for all to see.
All this has led to the people as a whole (other than minority groups ) being drowned in a sea of petty and restrictive legislation, which has now cowed the spirit of enjoyment among believers in general.
Alas such occasions will never again occur because of the six listed above.
Whit Walks were an open celebration of the Christians Faith in God, and were frequently accompanied by a Brass Band, the little Independent Methodist Chapel I attended many years ago had no band, but we had Guitars and accompanied the singing with these. (We were very advanced for our time!)
I will close this missive with this remark from a Muslim with whom I was acquainted back then, he said that those who were saying that such things were oppressive towards Muslims,Sikhs and other faiths were building the wall of racial and religious bigotry, he claimed that such things did not offend him or those whom he knew, back then of course, we did not have Radical Islam, and all the Muslims and other religious faiths got along without any hassle at all, it has only come about and been caused by the sneaking political correctness as a form of appeasement that was never demanded nor was it needed.
No doubt there were as the years passed, little whispers in the ears of the powers that be, that it might be better to protect other faiths by preventing Christians from doing what they do best, which in turn led to the petty laws and restrictions of Brussels where it all began way back in the 1960′s and has eventually taken over to the extent that Christians are now all but totally forbidden to preach Christ Crucified on street corners and in public parks as they once did without a license, now they must be licensed, and can only preach where they are told to preach ( Their Patch so to speak ) and they are under constraints that mean they cannot speak against any sector of society, i.e. Gays, et cetera.

Joe McGinniss, author of Random House would-be blockbuster The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin, has confirmed the authenticity of the e-mail posted by Andrew Breitbart earlier today, which suggests that the book may have included allegations that McGinniss was aware he had not substantiated.
McGinniss told Mediaite:
My email to Jesse Griffin was an effort to secure Alaskan help in obtaining further corroboration of allegations about Sarah Palin that came to my attention during my research. My reporting continued beyond the date of the email, and only information that checked out to my satisfaction and that of my publisher was included in the book. Ultimately, I published only those allegations which I found to be credible. Other allegations that could not be sufficiently verified, including some of those referenced in my email, are not in my book.
McGinniss did not, apparently, describe to Mediaite what new facts, unavailable to him on January 27, 2011, had emerged to justify the publication of allegations he described at that time as "tawdry gossip" and lacking "factual evidence."
A close reading of the book suggests that the only new "evidence" to emerge concerned Trig Palin's purportedly "faked" birth, a conspiracy theory McGinniss admits he cannot prove. McGinniss cites "blogs" and anonymous residents of Wasilla as sources for his claim that "more and tougher questions about Trig's birth" emerged in the spring of 2011.
Other allegations appear to have been published without any further verification.
The recipient of McGinniss's email, Jesse Griffin, also published a response to Breitbart's post at his own blog, The Immoral Minority. Griffin denied that he was the source of the leaked email–implicitly confirming its authenticity–and defended McGinniss:
Okay obviously I cannot address this issue without also addressing the story about a leaked email between Joe McGinniss and myself that is making the rounds, suggesting that Joe did not have the facts to back up the allegations in his book. (By the way he certainly does.)
Yes I have seen the article, as well as the vicious attacks directed at Joe and myself.
However at this time I cannot provide a comment because I believe that there is an ongoing investigation.
What I can tell you right now is that I DID NOT leak, or provide access, to any e-mails between myself and anyone else. Period!
I will also let you know that I will not help to provide traffic to that site by allowing a conversation about the article on this blog. I apologize, as I really dislike censorship, but I am sure you understand the decision.
Finally, this morning, Shailey Tripp contacted us through our website, inquiring about how McGinniss's email had been obtained. Tripp is known to have been in contact with Griffin about her accusations relating to the Palins.
Tripp is the "self admitted prostitute" who was arrested on related charges in January 2011. The National Enquirer attempted, unsuccessfully, to link her to Sarah Palin's husband, Todd.
In a telephone conversation this morning following her initial contact, Tripp claimed that McGinniss had contacted her via email to ask about Trig Palin. "I didn't have anything to contribute to him, so he lost interest in speaking with me," she said. Tripp declined to provide that email, referring further questions to an attorney.
Big Journalism contacted Random House earlier today, and we are still awaiting a response.

Priced at $ 110 + shipping, the Cavalier 1 is a mid-priced enclosure aimed at people that like the overall wave master design with a little extra. The case comes equipped with a great looking front panel sound meter and places its front panel inputs where they should be, on the front panel (Wave Master had them on the top panel). Overall, the case looks good from the outside, by putting a new spin on a popular look, the Cavalier 1 may even be of interest to some Wave Master owners for secondary rigs.
However, when we opened the side panel, we saw a familiar looking interior layout, that for many enthusiasts just would not work. The locking mechanism for the 5.25″ and 3.25″ devices may be a good idea in theory, but I'd prefer to manually screw in my devices. Call me old fashioned, but I also think it makes the inside of the case look more bulky.
We didn't have any PCI card clippers break on us this time around, but those too really aren't the best addition to the Cavalier 1's interior layout. Once again it might have been a good idea on paper, but when it made it into the product the clippers could easily break and didn't look that good. Also lacking is a removable motherboard tray, a key feature looked for in most cases by hardware enthusiasts.
On the positive, the included power supply is a nice addition to the Cavalier 1, giving the case a better overall value and making it more attractive to the mainstream market the case is designed for. The included intake and exhaust fans are pretty quiet and will suite most users just fine, except people with multiple RAID arrays that would not be cooled by the Cavalier 1's single 80mm intake fan.
So what's the deal with the Cavalier 1? It's a good looking case made for the mainstream market based on the Wave Master's exterior design. It has the feel of a very high end case but the interior and price tag of one in the mid-ranged market. Overall, the Cavalier 1's strengths overpower its weaknesses, and the Cavalier 1 is a good case. It's about time Antec saw some quality competition in the mid-ranged market.

I need some instructions or tips on how to make a camouflage decoration. I need it for buttercream and fondant!!!!
Any help will be extremely appreciated!!!
I have done a camo cake in the past in buttercream, I mixed up several of the camo colors and randomingly piped the on the cake with large tip, then let it set just a few mins, and smoothed them out/together with Viva paper towel and fondant smoother, I've never done it in fondant. But I hope the buttercream tip helps.
Camo sugar sheet: https://secure.lucks.com/bpcsom/nxcsc.nsf/ItemInformation?openagent&SID=F2118BA3A4468EAE882578D90069F02C&Item=45050&
These work on bc or fondant.
I have done both - I did buttercream just as Jody130 did and fondant. I like the fondant look better. Same way made different shades and twisted them together abit and then rolled them out and cut out sections as need. If you look in my pics you can see both styles. Good Luck
One of the first cakes I ever did was a fondant army helmet. I'll try to post a pic, but not sure it it will work. If you're interested, let me know and I'll tell you how I did it.

Turmerol gelcaps are the most potent, versatile turmeric extract gelcaps known. This is a wild turmeric extract. All others are farm-raised and may contain residues of noxious solvents, including hexane. Even pesticide residues are commonly found in turmeric supplements. Not so with Turmerol, which is steam extracted, so there is no possibility for toxic residue. For the ultimate turmeric power use only Turmerol for the healthy, potent support of 100% wild turmeric. Plus, Turmerol contains the full complex of curcuminoids, curcumin, and turmerol resins. Contains also cold-extracted ginger oil and wild Oregano for boosting absorption.

(March 21) BROOMFIELD, Colo. — Attendees at the U.S. Potato Board's annual meeting were urged to develop value-added products and promote convenient uses for spuds to turn around stagnant sales.
From 2000-06, fresh sales were down 4%, with retail and foodservice showing similar trends even as the U.S. population grew by 6%, said Tim O'Connor, president and chief executive officer of the Denver-based board, which is marking its 35th year.
Potato growers have made strides in managing supply, but increasing profitability lies in creating demand for value-added potato products, O'Connor said.
He urged merchandising partnerships with retailers rather than just price promotions.
"We're doing sales. We need to start doing marketing," O'Connor said.
To help reach this goal, the board has begun its Best in Class program.
The effort combines retail promotions — focusing on assortment and price — and interactive demonstrations at elementary schools.
The program has been established in Sacramento, Calif.; St. Louis; and Harrisburg, Pa., working with retailers Raley's, Schnuck Markets and Giant.
In order to make it easier for consumers to enjoy potatoes, the board has worked with the Turover Strauss Group, Springfield, Mo., to develop 21 recipes for one-dish meals or side dishes that can be prepared and cooked in less than 30 minutes using a microwave oven.
Developed with the help of chef Dustin Hilinski, the meals include French onion chicken and potatoes, cheeseburger and potato stick casserole, potato lasagna and microwave au gratin potatoes.
While the low-carbohydrate diet fad of a few years back has cooled off, many consumers — 25% — still associate potatoes with fattening food, said research consultant Larry Noedel of Noedel Marketing Research, St. Louis.
His research found 13% of consumers are on low-carb diets, and 40% say they are trying to eat mashed or baked potatoes less often.
The health aspect is crucial, Noedel said, and to change consumers' perception of potatoes, he developed four possible marketing messages:
- It's OK to love potatoes;
- Good carbs are a good thing;
- Fresh potato sides in 15 minutes or less; and
- Faster, healthier dinners.
