ELMIRA, N.Y. – The Elmira Jackals, ECHL affiliate of the NHL's Buffalo Sabres and the AHL's Rochester Americans, announced that the club has signed veteran forward Garrett Klotz and defenseman Brad Richard for the 2015-16 season.
Klotz, 26, brings 337 professional games of experience and 764 career penalty minutes with him to Elmira. The 6-foot-6 250-pound enforcer was signed to an offer sheet by the Jackals earlier this month, which was unmatched by the Wichita Thunder, who owned Klotz's ECHL rights at the time. Klotz was drafted out of the Western Hockey League as a member of the Saskatoon Blades in the third round (66th overall) of the 2007 NHL Entry Draft by the Philadelphia Flyers. He played four seasons with the Flyers' AHL affiliate, registering 11 points and 191 penalty minutes in 155 games. He also skated in two games with the Norfolk Admirals during the 2012-13 season.
Klotz spent most of last season with the Indy Fuel, logging four points and 80 penalty minutes in 30 games, before he was sent to Wichita where he collected a goal and seven penalty minutes in eight contests. His other ECHL tenures came in 2012-13 with the Fort Wayne Komets, where he posted seven points and 98 penalty minutes in 35 games, and a three game stint in 2010-11 with the Greenville Road Warriors. The Regina, Saskatchewan native also notched 38 points and 386 penalty minutes in 104 Central Hockey League games with the Allen Americans and the Bloomington PrairieThunder.
Richard, 26, had his ECHL rights acquired by Elmira in a summer trade with the Alaska Aces in exchange for the ECHL rights to Brodie Reid. Richard spent his first two professional seasons with Alaska and helped them win the 2014 Kelly Cup championship while earning ECHL All-Rookie Team honors. The New Bedford, Mass. native recorded six goals and 24 assists as well as a plus-20 rating in 62 games during his rookie campaign. Last season, the 5-foot-10 195-pound blueliner registered eight goals and five assists in 24 games with the Aces plus two points in 12 games in the AHL with the Iowa Wild.
Prior to turning pro, Richard played four seasons at nearby Hobart College, where he served as team captain during his final two seasons. He recorded 22 goals and 42 assists in 97 NCAA III games and was named to the NCAA III East All-American Second Team in 2012-13.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Here are five observations on the Jacksonville Jaguars, gleaned from the training camp practices of Aug. 2:
1. It isn't a good sign when the leading receiver in franchise history (Jimmy Smith) has retired, the guy who is supposed to replace him as the big-play threat in the passing game (Matt Jones) has his foot strapped into a walking boot because of an ankle injury, and the team's best runner (Fred Taylor) is nursing a groin injury sustained during a conditioning run on the opening day of camp. Even the lead character on "My Name is Earl" might call that some bad karma. Some might suggest the wheels already have come off the Jaguars, who in 2005 became one of just a dozen wild-card teams since 1990, when the NFL adopted the 12-team playoff format, to win 12 games.
Coaches and players insist, however, that, the early camp detours aside, Jacksonville is capable of motoring all the way to Super Bowl XLI. Time will tell. It might have been more appropriate had the Jaguars qualified for Super Bowl XL because they might be the extra-largest team in the entire league. You expect, when the Jags run onto the field for practice, to hear the strains of "Sweet Georgia Brown" in the background, and the team to line up for layup drills. Size is the most obvious element at virtually every position here, but most conspicuously among the offensive skill-position guys. The top three wide receivers -- Jones, Reggie Williams and Ernest Wilford -- average 6-foot-4¾ and 223.3 pounds. Quarterback Byron Leftwich is 6-5 and 242 pounds. And first-round tight end Marcedes Lewis checked in at 6-6 and 265. The point man, Leftwich, might be tempted at some point with a big lead to attempt a no-look, behind-the-back, wrap-around pass to a guy streaking down the wing.

The currency rose 1.9pc to $1.3657 as markets awaited details of rescue plans from the German and French governments - Europe's two largest economies - this afternoon.
The move follows a summit of Eurozone leaders in Paris yesterday, where French President Nicolas Sarkozy said: "None of our countries acting alone can end this crisis. We're not giving any presents to the banks, we're allowing them to function."
Commentators anticipate that Europe will follow Britain's sweeping example by taking stakes in banks and guaranteeing new bank debt issuance in an attempt to get the interbank lending markets functioning again.
Germany's plan is reported to included a fund to provide up to €400bn (£300bn) in guarantees for banks, according to a draft bill seen by Reuters.
"After a haphazard start, Europe is finally getting its act together," said economists at Bank of America in a note. "The proof will be in the implementation. But judging by the limited information available late Sunday, the size and nature of the national plans suggest that they could finally make a difference."
The German government is expected to discuss its rescue plan at a special cabinet meeting today and submit it to parliament immediately after.
President Sarkozy is planning to address the nation this afternoon following a special meeting of the French cabinet. Unlike the British government, the French government is expected to say that it intends to control the strategy and management of the banks it bails out.
The British government has begun its programme of nationalisation announcing today that it will inject £20bn of capital into Royal Bank of Scotland, and a further £17bn into the merged HBOS-Lloyds TSB
The broad aim of the initiatives in the UK, US and Eurozone is to stabilise the global banking system by avoiding the failure of any "systemically relevant institutions," according to G7 officials.
The hope is that confidence in banks will be restored, and that the banks will start lending to each other again after a period of intense mistrust and speculation about the financial health of various institutions.
Ned Rumpeltin, research analyst at Morgan Stanley, said that the details of how the various governments are going to act will matter, "but we believe it will go a long way to repairing broken markets going forward. The current episode of risk aversion is now closer to its end than its beginning."

Police are searching for escaped inmate, Dustin Cotton, after he fled from the Floyd County Courthouse.
Authorities said that Cotton was due to appear at the Floyd County Courthouse where the judge was expected to give him a probation sentence. Investigators said Cotton asked to go to a bathroom when he made his escape just before noon Monday.
"An immediate and heavy law enforcement response to the area resulted in the location of what is believed to be the clothing that he was wearing when he escaped—orange inmate pants, shirt and shoes," Rome Police Lt. Joseph Costolnick said.
Most likely still wearing a white T-shirt and his inmate-orange pants, police said that his shackles were found a block away from the courthouse, according to Floyd County Police Officer Jerome Poole.
He has several tattoos including a dragon on his neck and the Grim Reaper on his right arm.
Police believe that someone may have helped Cotton in his escape.
He was in court for armed robbery, aggravated assault, hijacking a motor vehicle, offensive weapon while committing a crime and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon charges, and is not believed to be armed, Poole confirmed.
An active search is currently being conducted by all local law enforcement agencies to apprehend the escaped inmate.
If you have any information on the whereabouts of Cotton, police ask that you call 911 or you message the Floyd County Sheriff's Office on their Facebook page.

People still like to complain about having to wear seat belts. Sure, they can be uncomfortable or leave bruises if you are in an accident; however, the alternative is far worse!
Just watch this '98 Expedition Rollover crash test video. Take a look at what happens to bodies inside a vehicle who aren't strapped in. As this car, any car for that matter, spins and flips all over the road you can see how easily a human body can fly out the window and even land in the path of the crash!

Daily briefs of the top news stories impacting Christians around the world.
In today's edition:
- Former Muslim: U.S. Airways Acted Properly in Removing Imams
- Iran Arrests Eight Leaders of House Church Movement
- Christian Lawyer in China Convicted of 'Inciting Subversion'
- German Minister Wants Curbs on Religious Freedom
Former Muslim: U.S. Airways Acted Properly in Removing Imams
According to AgapePress, a terrorism expert and New York Times best-selling author says U.S. Airways was completely justified in removing six Muslim imams from a recent flight between Minneapolis and Phoenix. Brigitte Gabriel, founder and president of the American Congress for Truth, recently published Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America. Gabriel shares her pleasure that U.S. Airways is defending its action in removing the suspicious imams from the flight after passengers became concerned about their behavior. "USAir has every right to do what they are doing," she states. "As a matter of fact, USAir just became my official airline carrier because of what they did with the imams." The captain of the airplane made the right decision, she says. "When you look at the behavior of the imams -- they took the seating configurations used by the 9/11 hijackers; they talked about al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden; and they moved around the airplane -- I mean, they were asking for attention," says Gabriel. "So, of course, that's going to arouse the suspicion of the airline passengers, who alerted that crew and who alerted the captain." The former Muslim says it is outrageous that five of the six imams are seeking an out-of-court settlement with the airline. She says she is hopeful U.S. Airways will not buckle to political correctness.
Iran Arrests Eight Leaders of House Church Movement
Compass Direct News reports Iranian secret police began to raid and arrest leaders of the Islamic republic's indigenous "Jesus Only" movement last Sunday (December 10), arriving unannounced in the early morning hours to search their homes in Tehran, Karaj, Rasht and Bandar-i Anzali. Over the past five days several members of the house church movement have been called in for a day or more of interrogations and then released. But eight remain under arrest, including one woman. According to one source, those arrested have been told they face 10 accusations, including evangelization activities and actions against the national security of Iran.
Christian Lawyer in China Convicted of 'Inciting Subversion'
A Beijing court convicted Chinese human rights lawyer Gao Zhisheng of "inciting subversion" on Tuesday (December 12) after he was said to have mysteriously entered a "guilty" plea, according to reports. Compass Direct News reports that advocacy group Human Rights in China and Asia News questioned the credibility of the guilty plea, as Gao's family and attorney were not informed that he had been put on trial until the proceedings were over. The trial at Beijing's No. 1 People's Intermediate Court lasted less than a day.
German Minister Wants Curbs on Religious Freedom
The German federal Minister of Justice, Brigitte Zypries, has called for limitations on religious freedom, ASSIST News Service reports. "We should not place any behavior under the protection of this important basic right", said the Social Democrat in a "Speech on Religious Policy" in Berlin, December 12. Zypries has no religious affiliation and was the only member of Chancellor Angela Merkel's cabinet who did not use the affirmation "So help me God" when she was sworn in. The 53-year-old politician is concerned that decisions taken by the German Supreme Court in matters of religion have resulted in "a kind of freedom for all sorts of behavior". Even smoking cannabis could legally be regarded as a religious practice, said Zypries. She believes that religious freedom should be defined more precisely. Otherwise more and more citizens would try to excuse themselves from adherence to the general laws with reference to their religious freedom.

This resort is very family oriented. It is located at the far south end of The Strip. You do need a car to travel around. The main Strip area is a 15 minute drive. The apartments are very spacious and clean with a large bathroom and jacuzzi in each. Although apartments are marketed as sleeping 4 persons, there is actually i bed in 1 room and a sofa which opens to a foldaway bed in the living area. This makes the place quite cramped. The kitchen is completely equipped in addition to a washer and dryer. They even provide a small sample of detergent for the washer and dishwasher.
There are many leisure amenities onsite within the resort. These include several sculptured pools and jacuzzis. They also organise daily activities for young kids and teens.
The only downside of the resort is that housekeeping is conducted weekly for free. For additional daily housekeeping, you need to pay a substantial extra.

John Tortorella tells Dave Lozo at NHL.com that Brad Richards deserves most of the credit for his late season chemistry with Marian Gaborik…
"I think a lot of it has to do with Brad Richards' game. I think Gabby is getting used to him a little where Gabby needs to give him the puck and not always have the puck. Then you just gain some confidence. I think their puck movement, especially the guy without the puck has been very good with them."
Richards has assisted on five of Gaborik's six goals since they were put together again.
…while you would have liked to have seen them create this chemistry earlier in the season, it might work out even better having them put it together heading into the playoffs.
…and don't forget Hagelin, whose speed is opening up a lot of ice for his linemates.

One of the things to consider when thinking of health benefits is the possibilities of emergency cases when health is being compromised. As to this case, any concern citizen is always considering the couverture hospitalisation one hospital and any health insurance services is offering. Off course, this is indeed something to top back in our mind coz no one is sure enough, now a days, to any of the possible consequences or circumstances we could have in life.
But what's sure thing to do is to be healthy.

The City of Paris has recently decided to protect its traditional dwelling premises intended for Parisian tenants to face the significant increase of touristic furnished flats in Paris, often rent per night or week through online booking platforms such as Airbnb. For a few years, such touristic furnished rentals, which offer similar prices than those charged on the hotel market, have constituted a fierce competition.
A law dated March 24th, 2014 (called the "Alur Law"), which purpose was to increase the offer of the traditional rental market, had already modified article L. 631-7 of the French Building and Housing Code to subject the conversion of an accommodation which is not the main residence of an owner into "a furnished premise intended for residential use, repeatedly and for short periods, to occasional customers who do not take up residence in there" to an authorization of change of use.
The city of Paris has modified in the same way its municipal regulation related to change of use, issued on the basis of article L. 631-7 of the French Building and Housing Code, to significantly tighten the applicable offset rules.
Based on the definition of a touristic furnished rental provided for by the Alur Law, the new article 3 of the municipal regulation now subjects to a prior authorization of the Mayor the conversion of premises designed for housing into touristic furnished flat rent for short periods to occasional customers.
This authorization is subject to offsetting requirements, located in the same district than the premises for which the change of use is required:
- the offset must be 1 square meter for 1 square meter, when the premises are located outside of the reinforced offsetting sector or when it concerns social housing whereby an agreement has been concluded with the French State pursuant to article L. 351-2 of the French Building and Housing Code relating to personalized housing allowance ("Aide personnalisée au logement");
- the offset requirement is 2 square meters for 1 square meter, when the premises are located in the reinforced offsetting sector (corresponding to the center and the west of Paris, especially concerned by the increase of the touristic furnished rental market which can represent up to 20% of the global rental offer).
This modified municipal regulation is applicable to every applications for a change of use filed since January 1, 2015.
It remains to determine the real impact of such tightening of applicable rules on the success of online booking websites and on the hotel market.

Lightning strikes twice for Somali president
Somalia's president, Sheikh SharifAhmed, has escaped another attack by Islamic militants after deadly fighting erupted in the capital, Mogadishu. Last week the radical al-Shabaab group fired on his plane as he left for an African Union meeting in Uganda, prompting a mortar and artillery battle between rebels and AU troops that killed dozens of civilians. This time, Ahmed was returning from a trip to Yemen when insurgents began firing mortars, resulting in another lethal clash with AU peacekeepers.

FBX1 - Escaping Winters Grip
Rated 4 / 5 stars
In my personal opinion, while this had a fairly weak beginning, it really pulls through after the 40 second mark. The almost Christmas-y feel, almost reminds me of Carol of the Bells, which has a very weird feel with the techno and almost rock elements at time with it. Overall I give it a 8/10.
Lethal Dose -Return for Refund
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Brilliant songwriting, singing blows it.
I thought, finally I found a nice song. The guitar was nice. The bass smooth. I was really liking it, until 27 seconds in, when you, or your singer, began to sing. I recommend getting a friend to sing for you, or getting a new friend to sing for you, as whoever is singing, isn't a very good singer. When you sing you must use your own voice, not try to change it, as the singer is, which leads to him mumbling. Would be a great song, just need to improve the singing. Due to the near perfection with the exception of one point, I give it a 9/10
Scratch Sessions (dnb)
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Im not a big fan of drum and bass, but I know a good one when I hear one.
This isnt one. It has collective rhythm, upon starting you have a gag reflex setting the knowledge, this is gonna be a bad one. Its like the music they play in a music when someone is going insane, or high on heroine, LSD, and PCP in one injection, where it plays for 5 seconds, makes you feel uncomfortable then fades out.
Its not you, its the genre. Why is there piano in drum and bass? The piano parts are good, consider writing full piano, the scratch and drum, not so much. Also it has some nice synth. I can tell you tried, so I give it a 6/10.
Sugar Coated Dragon Tails
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Great Guitar, Obnoxious Synth.
It has a great start, until the synth came in. I personally found it rather annoying. If it was just the synth and guitar, I would have given it a 5, until that scream came into it. Then I said 10, then the synth came back, so it was a 5 again, then the solo was well written so I bumped it up two points. If I could give advice, I would recommend lowering the synth, and to make the guitar more prominent.

Reading "Radio Waves (City, 3/12)," reminded me of how the game of "community radio" is played. As a former call-in show host on a "community" radio station (WITR, 12/91-1/92), I know how it will be played by these new "powers that be (Chuck McCoy, Mike Yates and Dave Sutliff-Atias)."
I was canned after only four shows, because management at WITR did not agree with my views.
Yates claimed that Radio MuCCC will "have a space for relevant and interesting talk, and a place for experimentation --- a place for voices that are underrepresented in the Rochester media."
He then said he will have no place for people who "aren't broadcasting hate speech."
In other words, whatever he may say to the contrary, he won't allow conservative views on his station.
If he does, either he or one of his hosts will control the dialogue so as to make one's opponent look like a fool, or there will be more than one person from the left who will gang up on that person.
McCoy argued "if you don't like someone, you can give your opinion, but no attacks."
Let's see how long it will take for a left-winger to attack a conservative and be chastised for it on McCoy's or Yates' station.
It will be a longer wait than what would happen if the shoe goes on the other foot.
Effective talk-radio hosts (no names need be mentioned) entertain, inform, educate, promote an emotionally and intellectually honest discussion of the issues and events of the day, and provide a catharsis for listeners and callers.
How many "liberal hosts can do that?
Air America, which was carried years ago on WROC-950 AM, crashed in the ratings, because its hosts talked down to, and insulted audiences with the same bromides that their friends in mainstream media (Gannett, NPR, ABC, NBC, CBS, New York Times, etc.) pushed, despite their claims that their reporters were objective.
More importantly, the views expressed by conservative hosts have validated, and continue to validate, the concerns and fears of their listeners who have been long put off by establishment media organizations.
Complain all you want about signal strength.
Content matters, especially in talk-radio.
Apparently, McCoy, Sutliff-Atias and Yates are really not really interested in facilitating entertaining and informative talk programming, but are more interested in acting as shills for left-wing special interest groups (Hispanics, Blacks, LGBT, etc.) and, maybe, a mayor and a few of her cronies.
They should know enough people in town with like minds and enough money to buy and run a commercial station, on which they could promote their left-wing agenda.
However, they have sided with the government-controlled WXXI-1370 AM, in refusing to compete in the marketplace of ideas.
With that in mind, I would be more than glad to offer my services to managers at any station in town, and show them that the formula I mentioned in this essay can work on the local level.
I doubt there will be any takers.
Tim Louis Macaluso should have gotten over his infatuation with Bill Maher and asked him why he would attack Sarah Palin's five-year-old special-needs son, Trig, by calling him "retarded" during a recent show in Las Vegas.
It's bad enough for high-priced hacks like Maher to personally attack people, espeically religious people, Republicans and conservatives (e.g.: " "Why couldn't, uh, why couldn't have (Rush Limbaugh) croaked from it instead of Heath Ledger?" ""Did you hear this – Sarah Palin finally heard what happened in Japan and she's demanding that we invade 'Tsunami.'I mean she said, 'These 'Tsunamians' will not get away with this.' Oh speaking of dumb tw-ts, did you…" "Why did Mitt Romney strap his dog to the roof of his car? Could it be because his station wagon was full of wives?" ).
That practice has been in vouge for years.
I've seen nationally-known comedians do it, as well as wanna-bees on the local open-mike circuit and at paid shows.
However, Maher lowered himself below the gutter when he attacked someone who cannot fend for himself.
Yes, people like him have can do, and have done, just that.
By attacking a special needs person, and by launching mysogynistic barbs like the "tw-t"remark, and hiding behind the First Ammendment and the "comedian" label, Maher is not a comic.
Maher is a gutless thug who has no sense of human decency.
If only someone would knock Maher on "his lilly white wimpy @$$," as Palin tweeted.

If some one could get back to me with a price or at least tell me a good printers that I can get some from that would be wonderful. Thanks

This kind of format is not a problem: I believe it's possible to implement it in the same Python script. For clarity, I'd put these prospective packages in a "wnpp" task file, possibly adding a "Task:" field to point to which task they belong to.

Lucknow, Nov. 15: Rattled by the Uttar Pradesh governments continued support to jailed former minister Amarmani Tripathi, the CBI has decided to go after those trying to bail him out in the Madhumita Shukla murder case.
The bureau today arrested a state police officer, sub-inspector Yadgya Narain Dixit, on the charge of destroying evidence and misleading the investigation to divert attention from Tripathi.
The bureau also issued a notice to minister of state Shyam Narain Tewari to appear before it in connection with the murder. It suspects he helped Amarmani Tripathi to destroy evidence.
Dixit who was in charge of the Manaknagar police post in Lucknow when the Hindi poet was murdered in May this year had allegedly fabricated documents and tutored false witnesses to testify that Madhumita was already married.
The arrest has sent shock waves through the capital, where Tripathi continues to enjoy considerable clout after switching loyalties from Mayavatis Bahujan Samaj Party to chief minister Mulayam Singh Yadavs Samajwadi Party.
Mulayam Singh has even said that while he would not interfere with the probe, he is grateful to Tripathi for saving Uttar Pradesh from anarchy.
CBI sources said the sub-inspectors arrest was just the beginning and more arrests might follow as a number of state officials had gone out of their way to help Tripathi. Apart from sub-inspector Dixit, we are investing the role of over a dozen state officials and two journalists who tried to mislead the investigation by destroying murder evidence or forging documents to derail the probe, a CBI official said.
Sources said the CBI was pushed into action by the manner in which Tripathi was allowed to roam free in Lucknow by local policemen and meet senior bureaucrats and politicians yesterday to lobby for his cause.
Following the CBI courts permission to Tripathi to attend the ongoing Assembly session, the former minister was yesterday taken out of jail and escorted to the Vidhan Bhavan. After the session, he left in a red-beacon fitted car for the secretariat annexe to meet Mulayam Singh.
I may be in trouble, but I am not helpless. I have powerful friends who have promised to stand by me, the former BSP minister said.
The chief ministers office refused to comment on Tripathis visit. But the CBI has decided to make an issue of it. We will protest to the court about the manner in which Tripathi was allowed to leave the Vidhan Bhavan and meet people, a CBI official said.
The courts order permitting Tripathi to attend the session had specifically said he was to be taken out of jail to attend the session and then escorted back every day.
The CBI has already approached Allahabad High Court against the CBI courts order. The petition is to come up for hearing on November 17. The bureau had earlier lodged a formal complaint with state authorities, alleging that officials were allowing Tripathi to use a cellphone inside the Lucknow district jail and people who were visiting him were not being checked.
A CBI official claimed that the murder was now almost solved after the arrest of the alleged killers and the recovery of the murder weapon and it was just a question of time when they lay their hands on the ministers wife, Madhumani.
CBI teams have intensified raids in Gorakhpur, Lucknow, Rampur and other places where, the sleuths believe, Madhumani could be hiding. They are also checking reports that she has gone over to Nepal.
We have served several notices and told her family members in Gorakhpur yesterday that evading the CBI would not help Madhumani and she must help the CBI if she was not involved, the bureaus deputy inspector-general of police, Lok Nath Behra, said.

UNCASVILLE, Conn. -- OK, I've covered a lot of basketball games, but Wednesday's Game 1 of the WNBA Finals provided something unique. It was the first time I've sat on press row and experienced the sensation of being a piece of toast.
Wait a second bread doesn't really have any sensations, does it? How about the sensation of getting too close while trying to roast some marshmallows?
The Connecticut Sun folks brought out this flame-blower thing -- that's the only way I know how to describe it -- for the starting lineup to run through.
After the flames blasted, of course, is when they were supposed to run through it. They were warned. But surely, they were prepared, too. I mean, what coach doesn't practice that every day?
"OK, now we're going to do the 'run through the shooting flame thing' again. No screwing around, either. Anyone who gets her eyelashes singed off is running steps as soon as the paramedics leave, I promise you."
I must say, this flame thing didn't strike me as a very good idea. Maybe I'm just a worrywart, but I don't care much for situations that seem to scream, "HELLO, I'M A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN!"
I actually didn't notice it until the first flames went up, though. I had been busy trying to connect the cord of my laptop into a power strip in the semi-dark "ambiance" of the introductions. I felt a blast of heat and thought, "Oh, no, what did I just plug into?"
But it was only the flame thing, which I suppose was approximating by a billionth or so the actual heat of the sun were you a few feet from it.
As for the heat of the Sun, though it wasn't hot enough to protect the home court against a Sacramento victory. And maybe that's because this season, the Monarchs have proven burn-proof.
Injuries to Kara Lawson, DeMya Walker and Ticha Penicheiro have not stopped them. Rather, every time fate (or whatever) seems to want to torch Sacramento, Yolanda Griffith and crew get out their fire extinguishers and then carry on.
"That's the beauty of this team; I'm so proud of everybody and how they've played throughout the year," said Penicheiro, who missed the Western Conference Finals with a sprained ankle, but had eight assists in 21 minutes of play Wednesday. "When DeMya went down, [Rebekkah Brunson] stepped up. When Kara was out, it was a lot of people. We always find ways to win.
"I think that's why we're playing so well right now -- because everybody at certain points in the season has had to carry some of the load. We go 10 people deep."
Depth is one of the under-utilized aspects of the WNBA, in part because it requires a coaching commitment to have confidence in your whole team and be patient as everyone learns to be comfortable in various combinations.
And also because it's just hard, when you're typically facing extremely good talent in every game, to trust the reserves.
Walker thinks, though, that the key is coach John Whisenant and his staff did just that -- even when injuries didn't force them to.
"The entire season, even when we were all healthy, we all still played and mixed-and-matched our squads in practice," Walker said. "So when something did happen to someone, we didn't feel out of place with anyone or didn't know what the chemistry would be. We already knew. Because they had built it that way from the beginning of training camp."
Whisenant takes pride in his team being called a "pain" to play and says the Monarchs try to irritate and bother and pester opponents. Yet the Monarchs this season never seem to get on each other's nerves. There's a sense of purpose when you have the mix of players that the Monarchs have.
The longtime veterans such as Griffith and Penicheiro, both consummate professionals. A player who has really worked hard to earn recognition in Walker. A player like Lawson who came from the mountain-range high expectations of Pat Summitt in college at Tennessee. A kid out to prove herself after a awful rookie season in Nicole Powell.
Other youngsters who play like they mean business: Brunson, Kristin Haynie and Chelsea Newton. And there's Hamchetou Maiga and Olympia Scott-Richardson, role players who give something even if they're just on court for a few minutes. Those 10 all played for the Monarchs in their 69-65 victory; Erin Buescher didn't get in the game but has made her contributions, too, this season.
Whisenant talked afterward about how this series is still "far from over" but that he, obviously, preferred the position his team was in.
Griffith echoed Whisenant, saying the Monarchs can't let up for a second even though they have won the first game. Griffith had 25 points and nine rebounds. It was exactly what you'd expect from her the first time she has had a chance to be in the WNBA Finals.
"She's one of the greatest competitors I've known," Penicheiro said. "If you think I'm hungry, look at her."
It's a good "hunger" that Griffith has helped her teammates also feel and appreciate. That's the way it has been for Sacramento this season. It's not just that everybody is on the same page or even on the same paragraph.
They're on the same word.

In just over a week, on March 4th, my debut novel, Red and the Wolf, officially hits the market. As such, I've spend a lot of time lately getting ready for the big event. One of the more interesting aspects of this is answering interview question for various blogs that have generously agreed to host me in March. Today, I thought I would share some of my favorite questions. To get my answers though, you'll have to check out the full interviews when they come out. I'll post links on this blog then for anyone interested in checking them out.
From The Book Queen:
"I know you love to write, but if you couldn't, what other dream job do you have? Perhaps one that you had when you were younger?"
That one was surprisingly difficult to answer as I adore writing so much, but I thought it a very intriguing question.
Also from The Book Queen:
"Which would you rather have an affair with: a sexy highlander OR a devilishly handsome English lord?"
I'll let you guess until the interview comes out March 5th. :-)
"I always loved fairy tales as a child and began reading fantasy as a teen. Having the fantasy/romance genre explode on the scene has been wonderful. What originally attracted you to the genre?"
I love these questions that really make me think about myself, what I write, and why I'm interesting in the things I love.
From Books-n-Kisses:
"Can you share with us something off your bucket list?"
That one was especially fun to answer because it's always enjoyable to tap the musing spirit of dreams that allows for bucket lists in the first place.
From Tina Pollick:
"Have you ever hated something you wrote?"
That's a questions I suspect a lot of authors might squirm at, but I like the fact that Tina offers an unexpected contrast to the norm in her question.
From the character interview from Laurie's Thoughts and Reviews:
"If you could apologize to someone in your past, who would it be?"
"What would we find under your bed?"
I have not answered these just yet. I'm still debating which character from my book should get the honor of being interviewed, but I found these questions particularly unique.
From TBR the Blog:
"Which of your characters would you most/least like to invite to dinner, and why?"
In a way, I could have said all of them would be interesting at dinner, though some might not survive the experience, but I thought a more specific answer was called for.
From Sizzling Hot Books:
"When writing who is in charge you or your characters? How do you deal with bossy characters?"
Ah, someone who understands how characters can truly develop a life, personality, and motives all their own.
From You Gotta Read:
"What is the weirdest thing you've done in the name of research?"
I had to ask my husband on this one. It all seems normal to me. Apparently, that isn't actually the case.
I hope you've enjoyed this glimpse into some of my favorite interview questions so far. What interview questions have you seen or answered that you found interesting?

Charlize Prepares Hard for The Brazilian Job
Charlize Prepares Hard for The Brazilian Job
Charlize was hard at work tanning this weekend in Malibu. Looks like she's doing a little research for The Brazilian Job -- not the painful bikini wax, the sequel to the 2003 film, The Italian Job. Charlize and Marky Mark are both signed on along with Jason Statham and funny man Seth Green. The new film will involve Mark's band of expert thieves heading to Rio de Janeiro to pull off yet another heist. In the meantime, Charlize will enjoy her time in a bikini and playing with her pup. Sounds like the perfect gig in between jobs.

I haven't shopped at lululemon yet, though all my girlfriends talk about it. I may have mentioned that I have started training for a marathon (did I mention that here or only on facebook?). And I'm still trying to figure out what gear I need. I believe that lululemon is in my future. Cute athletic-wear gets my butt in gear.
Anyway, in the meantime, check out their company manifesto:
I LOVE it! I've become one of those people that talks to myself in simple affirmations. It's helpful to me. They are reminders of things I know but can forget when my mind gets wrapped around something imminent (and usually negative). So telling myself "this too shall pass" or asking myself my favorite questions, "is this important?" (as in, will I care about this a year from now?) or "is this productive?" help me unlatch my mind from that distraction and focus on something positive. So far, there have been no emblazoned coffee mugs or t-shirts. Just simple reminders that help me navigate my day in a more positive way. If you see me looking like I am talking to a voice in my head, rest assured...I am.
So you can see why this manifesto appeals to me. I'm such a sucker. I'm totally more interested in shopping there now.

Colleague, Kristie Penwarden of Professional Public Relations points out a story on FoodWeek Online, which begins: 'There's a new truck roaming the streets of LA - just in time for summer- and it's being followed by legions of devotees who track its whereabouts via Twitter...'
The story quotes 'trend monitoring website Springwise.com' in its report on Coolhaus, which sells handmade ice cream sandwiches from a pink and chrome converted postal service jeep.
While the idea may sound great to icecream fans in the streets of LA, THE cool thing for us is that the truck informs followers of its whereabouts via Twitter (@coolhaus).
This is one of many early end-user innovations that is happening, following the celebrity adoption of the service to feed their fans, and the appearance of the @ reply and 'hashtag' trend-following conventions.
Rest assured, advertisers have not been slow to see the opportunities offered by yet another way of reaching audiences direct, taking a leaf from the PR book of interpersonal, multi-modal communication.

Published: Sunday 1st May 2016 by The News Editor
Labour is braced for a backlash at the polls from the row over anti-Semitism as Jeremy Corbyn faces continued criticism over his handling of the issue.
Sadiq Khan indicated that his prospects of being elected London mayor on Thursday had been damaged by ex-City Hall chief Ken Livingstone's highly-controversial comments linking Hitler and Zionism.
The ex-minister – seen as the Opposition's best hope of a positive result in elections across the UK – said the leadership had acted too slowly to tackle concerns about racist views in the ranks.
It came as Israel's new ambassador to Britain said parts of the left were "in denial" about anti-Semitism and the leader of the Labour opposition party in Tel Aviv said recent events needed to act as a "red alert" that urgent action was required.
Mr Corbyn's attempts to put a lid on the situation by announcing an independent review and tighter procedures was undermined when Mr Livingstone – who has been suspended along with MP Naz Shah – publicly stuck by his comments.
The former MP blamed the row on "embittered Blairite MPs" seeking to scupper Labour's chances at the ballot box and prompt a leadership challenge and he insisted he had nothing for which to apologise to the Jewish community.
A poll carried out as the controversy unfolded, gave the Conservatives an eight-point lead and experts tip Labour to lose up to 150 council seats in England and face a hard night in elections to the Scottish and Welsh governments.
Mr Khan said: "I accept that the comments that Ken Livingstone has made make it more difficult for Londoners of Jewish faith to feel that the Labour Party is a place for them, and so I will carry on doing what I have always been doing, which is to speak for everyone.
"There are too many examples in our party of people having these views, and action does not appear to have been taken quickly enough," he said – as he sought to fight off Tory attempts to tie him closely to Mr Livingstone and Mr Corbyn.
The upper echelons of the party needed training " as clearly they don't understand what racism is, and there is no hierarchy when it comes to racism", he told the Observer.
In an open letter to his UK counterpart, Israel's Labour leader Isaac Herzog said he had been " appalled and outraged by the recent examples of anti-Semitism by senior Labour Party officials in the United Kingdom".
"Knowing that the British Labour Party has a proud and distinguished history of fighting racism in every form, has only added to my profound disappointment at recent events, which must act as a red alert and prompt immediate action," he wrote.
Mr Livingstone's comments were " horrific and unthinkable for a British politician in the 21st century" and Ms Shah's shared social media post talking about transporting Jews from Israel to the US "sickens all those of moral conscience", he said.
She has apologised for a series of offensive posts made before she was elected to the Commons in 2015.
Inviting Mr Corbyn to lead a delegation to the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial, he said that while Mr Livingstone appeared "beyond redemption" he was "s ure there remain many Labour Party activists with a willingness to engage and better understand the scourge of anti-Semitism".
Israel's ambassador to Britain Mark Regev told the Sunday Times: "I have no doubt that part of the left is in denial. They say 'anti-Semitism, that's the right, that's the fascists'. That's a cop-out. It doesn't stand up to serious historical examination."
"When it does raise its ugly head, it should be condemned across the board. And failure to condemn has to be in itself condemned," he added when asked if Mr Corbyn had done enough.
John Mann – the Labour MP who angrily confronted Mr Livingstone in front of TV cameras – said he intended to go to the police over the abuse he had subsequently received.
"I've had a number of highly precise threats of violence. I'm going to report this to the police. They are threatening me with physical assault," he told the newspaper.
The poll, by Opinium for the Observer, showed Labour on 30% to the Conservatives' 38% – with Ukip on 15% and the Liberal Democrats, SNP and Greens all on 5%.
It was based on 2,005 online interviews with UK adults between April 26 – 29.

Airdrie Board of Youth Affairs provides advice to council
Thursday, Aug 25, 2016 10:43 am
The Airdrie Board of Youth Affairs (ABYA) is a group of approximately 10 young people, ages 11 to 18, who work in an advisory capacity to Airdrie City council on youth issues.
Alex Ogunbiyi, 15, became a member of the ABYA board in 2015.
�At first it was a volunteer opportunity but as I got to know what the ABYA actually did, it gave me an opportunity to give back to my community and get more involved on youth issues,� he said. �I feel it�s a good experience being on a board and getting to meet new people.
�Council may not be as read in on what�s going on in the community, especially with youth. As youth we have that first hand experience and can pass that along directly across and then they can implement any plans or strategies they feel fit.�
In 2015, the ABYA worked on a number of issues, including public health, as it relates to youth.
�We helped (the Teen Clinic at the Highland Primary Care Network (HPCN)) with advertisements, posters and flyers,� Ogunbiyi said.
City of Airdrie Social Planner Pauline Clark said HPCN�s Teen Clinic provides different services to youth in Airdrie, including services to help youth deal with depression, stress and bullying.
�They came to the ABYA and it ended up being a really positive relationship,� she said. �The ABYA was successful in providing some feedback for their new promotional campaign. They really did use (the ABYA members�) words and voice incorporated into their posters.�
Educating themselves about youth homelessness was also a focus of the group in 2015.
Clark said the group is recruiting new members to add to the current 10 active members. Any youth who reside in the City of Airdrie and are between the ages of 11 and 18 and interested in getting involved can apply via a new online application form expected to go live at airdrie.ca in mid-September.
�We really just want to engage with young people that have an interest and investment in their community and really want to speak on behalf of the youth as it relates to any issues affecting youth in Airdrie,� she said.
The ABYA meets Mondays as a group and meets with council on a quarterly basis. The group originated in 2005 when it was known as the Hijinx Youth Council.
In 2008, the group was given more structure and became an advisory board to City council. Clark said the group is very much supported by the City and is part of the City�s Youth Strategy implemented in 2009.
The ABYA will meet for the first time after the summer break on Aug. 29. Members will be at AirdrieFEST Sept. 10 to answer questions and, hopefully, recruit a few new members.

For transgender woman Paula Schonauer, the sign displayed at the entrance of Oklahoma City's Steak and Catfish Barn is frightening.
It reads, "We do not have a transgender bathroom. So don't be caught in the wrong one."
"That sign has an implied threat, and a threat that's very real to me," Schonauer told KFOR-TV.
Troy Stevenson of Freedom Oklahoma said the message of the sign — which has been displayed for about 10 months, the station said — is un-American.
"You've got this sign implying a threat of potential violence against somebody for going to pee," he told KFOR. "That's not the Oklahoma standard. That's not what it means to be American. That's just wrong."
The owner of the Steak and Catfish Barn told the station he means no threat by the sign. In fact, Bob Warner told KFOR he wants to protect everybody in his restaurant: "I don't want to see nobody hurt."
"We have a lot of redneck guys that come in here. Truck drivers and everything," he said to the station. "They're big, husky guys, and I said, 'Man alive! If their wife or their little girl walked in that bathroom, and a man followed them in there, I wouldn't have a restaurant.' "
KFOR asked Warner if the sign means transgender people can't use the bathroom, and Warner replied that they can as long as they're dressed appropriately, the station said.
While Schonauer said she's "disturbed" by the sign and it's "really a let down," she told KFOR she hopes the controversy can educate others.
"It's an opportunity to show sometimes what transgender people deal with on a daily basis, unfortunately," Schonauer told the station, "but it's also a time to put out the word and rally our support."

In addition to the 20-partner team, 60 associates are already working on the Lehman administration. Linklaters insiders are predicting that due to the complexity of the insolvency, the lawyer tally is likely to approach 200 within months.
In a statement today, Lehman joint administrator and PwC partner Tony Lomas said: "There is unprecedented uncertainty and complexity in the market; nobody designed their systems or transaction structures to cope with the current situation."
PwC and Linklaters are also negotiating with potential purchasers for Lehman's asset management and corporate finance businesses, which are likely to be sold in the next week.
Other partner involved on the deal are:
– Richard Bussell, Rebecca Jarvis, Yushan Ng (banking)
– Michael Kent, peter Bevan (financial markets)
– Simon Firth, Pauline Ashall (capital markets)
– John Turnbull, Euan Clarke (litigation)
– James Knox (real estate)
– Raymond Jeffers, Catrina Smith (employment)
