Florissant Man Injured at Washer Tournament Taken Off Life Support, Friends Say
After an altercation at a local bar last Thursday, Randy Feger has been removed from life support, and his friends and family want to know why the suspects are still walking free.
A Florissant man was in critical condition after he fought with a Hazelwood man during a washer tournament at a local pub last week.
Randy Feger, a father-of-four who lives in Florissant, reportedly had a physical confrontation with the 37-year-old Hazelwood man at Pirate's Cove Bar & Grill on Thursday, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Feger's acquaintance called the Florissant Police Department after the incident, Officer Andy Haarmann told the Post, adding that Ferger sustained a serious head injury during the altercation.
Florissant Police presented the case to the St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney's office on Saturday, and the agency has taken the case under advisement pending further investigation. Haarmann also noted that police have arrested the suspect and released him pending investigation, adding that police have been in contact with the suspect since.
Friends and Family Hold a Candlelight Vigil
While Haarmann told the Post that he didn't know whether Feger knew the suspect, Florissant Patch heard from a friend of Feger's who offered additional insight into the situation.
The friend, who wishes to remain anonymous, and more than 200 other people gathered on Tuesday night at Koch Park to hold a candlelight vigil for Feger.
"This is a time and place for positive energy, prayer, respect, quiet, and stillness. We will not leave anything in the park but our heartfelt thoughts," stated the Facebook invitation. "Please only bring your candle, and a cup to protect your flame."
Feger's friend told Patch that Feger was taken off life support on Wednesday at 4 p.m. after a brain scan revealed zero brainwaves.
"He's off life support now, so it's just a matter of time," Feger's friend said.
More to the Story, Friend Says
Feger's friend said that there's more to the story than most news outlets are sharing. First, he said, Feger was dropped on his doorstep after the fight and was found the next morning in a pool of blood.
"He has had brain surgery and extensive measures have been taken to save his life, but he has never regained full consciousness," Feger's friend said. "Police picked up one of the two men but only held him for 24 hours."
He added that though the names of both men that were involved have "gotten around via word of mouth," no one is coming forward with the details. But, he said, the nearby Walgreens and Valvoline Instant Oil Change might also have cameras that could have caught the incident.
Frustrated Friends and Family: Why Suspects Are Still Walking Free?
"I'm very angry. It makes me sick to my stomach to think that that man's walking around and Randy's laying in a bed," Jill Szepanski, another one of Feger's friends, told KMOV. "He would always be there for you, a shoulder to cry on, and this was just a senseless act that happened."
KMOV also reported that police aren't releasing the suspect's name, but that they plan to file more serious criminal charges if Feger passes away. Florissant police plan to release additional information as more evidence is collected.
Recent Updates on Ferger's Condition
Feger's friend tells Patch that as of around 11 p.m. on Wednesday, Feger is no longer on ventilation and has been moved to a comfort room in the hospital.
"His breathing is shallow and labored, so it's a matter of time," he said.
Another friend noted on the Facebook event around the same time that Feger was "moving and breathing on his own," but that "prayers are stilll going out for the family and for a full speedy recovery."
Florissant Patch will continue to follow Ferger's story. Sign up for our free email newsletter to be kept up-to-date on the developments as they happen.

There is so much love for Randy, near and far, and the prayers continue to grow. He is such a good man with a huge heart. Candles and prayers are a constant for Randy, the doctors and nurses, and for his family.

Thanks to all of you for your comments. I do believe the community and his family and friends are hoping for just that--a miracle. Keep praying and sending positive thoughts his way, everyone!
1:52 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
a lot of this story is incorrect. he was not dropped at his door step. he was not taken off of life support by the doctors, Randy pulled the ventilator tubes out on his own Wednesday morning about 15 minutes before the doctors scheduled to do so. Randy is breathing on his own, deep breaths. He is still fighting! Now we're all just praying for him to wake up! Anyone that knows Randy knows how strong of a person he is! If anyone can overcome this, its him!

Thank you for the information, J.T. The info in the story was provided by a man who is a friend of Randy's, and we've heard from the family that he is still fighting. We are all pulling for him and we really hope that he gets his miracle.

That oddball music video, mixed with an awesome electro-club song and great lyrics, immediately put them on my musical radar. I dug into their rather extensive back catalog and found myself enjoying what they've put out so far (since 2005). That got me excited for what they could possibly bring into their newest effort In Our Heads. And with the explosion of electronic dance music integrating itself into pop music, I was almost expecting the boys of Hot Chip to change – or at least integrate itself into what's being played now.

New Nokia firmware hints at return of Flip-to-Silence feature for Lumias
With Nokia's new Windows Phone 8 devices, including the Lumia 620, Lumia 810, 820, 822 and of course 920, one feature that was previously available on earlier Lumias went missing: Flip to Silence. Part of that reason may be due to the curve screen on the Lumia 920, but it doesn't explain the 8xx series or 620 as those are flat.
New firmware found on Nokia's servers for the Lumia 620 hint that this feature is on its way back. The firmware (1030.6402) looks to be still experimental and it is difficult to download but one of our readers did manage to grab the files and flash his Lumia 620 (we tried but received some errors).
Our reader noted that with the new firmware, the 620 appeared to get better battery life, increased device performance and the inclusion of the aforementioned flip-to-silence feature. The OS was not updated with the firmware and it remained on Windows Phone 8 OS build 10211.
Our bet is Nokia is diligently working on porting over some missing features to their Windows Phone 8 series, including DLNA support and flip-to-silence. The former is expected soon as Nokia even admitted recently when asked about their missing PlayTo app. Now we're seeing the first evidence that this useful phone feature is coming as well.
Flip to silence is a fairly standard smartphone feature that enables a user to literally turn their phone over if a call is coming in and disable the ringer. While certainly not a "must have" or groundbreaking feature, it's one of those little things that make smartphones more useful.
It remains to be seen if such a feature will be used on the Lumia 920 where placing the phone display-down could risk scratches.
Thanks, tungha, for the files and screenshots!

I don't know what it is but damn is that phone beautiful. I almost envy it over my Lumia 920.
Tiwo says:
I'm getting it next week :>. Can't wait!
taymur khemesh says:
i totally agree, i just think its perfectly balanced.
lonbraj says:
It's a great addition. I love flip to silence in my L710. It's very useful and I see myself using it a lot during class or reunions.
hacer619 says:
i think this month is full of excitement for lumia users, hopefully all windows phone users
RN50 says:
Next couple of month for Windows Phones user could be exciting.
Hopefully Microsoft pull there fingers out of there bum holes and start updating WP8 with some missing features.
Iskassasya says:
I am still waiting for Portico on unbranded Lumia 820 - shocking. It's February, HTC uses got this update in DEC
PeterFnet says:
As a programmer, that scares me. Why does anything at an OS level require tweaking for manufacturers? I'm referencing something a Microsoft employee said regarding the release time table.
Dinkumschnauger says:
THis is great & all but I"m starting to get a little confused about the portico update (or lack of) for my Lumia 920 which still hasnt become available for me. My phone is factory unlocked and in the UK. Anyone know what has happened here?
DesRed says:
I recall reading that the Portico update will be released worldwide sometime in February in phases up till early March. Don't know what advice to give other than to wait until you see an update notification.
rockstarzzz says:
Portico is a "roll out" that will continue till end of March.
rodneyej says:
With my case the screen of my 920 is very recessed. I hope Nokia gives the 920 the update, and lets us decide what's best for our phones... Also, I would love DLNA!! Does anyone know how that works?
bsd107 says:
My 920 does not have a recessed screen - it sticks out from the front of the unit.
The question for me is whether the gorilla glass is likely to scratch or not. I'm not up for risking it....
sholokov says:
It does scratch. Mine already has a few scratches.
rockstarzzz says:
Gorilla glass per say DOES NOT scratch. Its got oil repelling coating on top of the glass. That is what scratches from daily use esp if you introduce that coating to coarse surfaces.
radde says:
I put my 920 with the screen down on many sort of surfaces and it does not have one scratch - and no, there is no screen protector applied. I really don't know what people are doing to their phones to get scratches on the display. The only things I could think of are sand corns in their pockets or putting it in the same pocket where you put your keys.
SleepyTheDon says:
Why did it go away In the 1st place. I'm trying to stay content with WP8 but so much that worked in 7.5 doesn't work now
tissotti says:
Because of the kernel change. While WP8 might look like WP7, the whole base of it was changed and made more modular (with the Windows 8 kernel).
Above means you get benefits like native code (easier to make games and port them) and in theory faster developement on bringing more versatile hardware to the platform. With it also some of the old app compatibility was lost. Though the change had to be done at some point.
rodneyej says:
Right, and with time you will see WP8.0-WPx grow, and most likely surpass the functionality of other platforms because of this more technically competent kernel WP is now using.. Basically, MS did this move so that the possibilities of what a WP device can achieve in the near future, and for years to come, will be endless...
vPuik says:
That's just how it goes. I work in the software industry and we offer a 15 old program that sucks, but does a LOT more than our newer software. Main reason is that while the programmers were adding new functionality to the old software, the programmers working on the new program were trying to get the new program to look better and be easier to use. Now that the UI is finished it'll few years before we have all the functionality added in.
rockstarzzz says:
Plus key here is Hardware! This WP8 in future can go upto 16 cores as one of the articles said. Our old WP7 was limited. It doesn't know how to use more than two cores correctly!
Ticomfreak says:
Actually, Windows Phone 8 can theoretically support 64 cores :)
Nik Rolls says:
I don't see why it wouldn't be available in the 920, as it was in the 800 which also has a curved screen. Ultimately if you're worried about scratches, just don't use it or put it down on a soft surface.
rodneyej says:
DesRed says:
I agree. but then again, I have a screen protector (Skinomi) on my 800 so it doesn't bother me at all. Looks like I'll have to go shopping for another one again if I do buy the 920. ;)
tdvbaja says:
I miss that option on my 920 that was on my Titan
vPuik says:
I'm fine. My N8 makes a great alarm clock. I just leave the power turned off and the battery lasts me for months.
lippidp says:
How does it work anyway? Is it prone to false positives? Is it useful for situations where the phone is not sitting facing up horizontally?
ncxcstud says:
Anymore progress on Microsoft's patent of tap to silence? I've been interested in that feature for awhile.
cddigi says:
Glad they are finally getting around to adding it. I used it on my 900 fairly often. Was surprised when I flipped over my 920 and the ringer kept going.
Daniel_H_UK says:
Same here its a feature i really miss from my old Lumia 710 love to see it on my 920
Kenjoe says:
Nice...cant wait
darianv says:
Its not available after 7.8 update on 710 also. Really miss it. Wonder why they scrapped it.
rodneyej says:
That's a good point, and something to be considered because we've always suspected it was just a current limitation of WP8..
paulheu says:
My L800 still has it in WP7.8 ..
Nick_Wilson says:
I am not certain that it is limited to the kernel. My HTC 8X has this feature built in under attentive phone options in settings. Was this just specific to HTC?
12Danny123 says:
it's specific to HTC.
irvin792 says:
Better battery life! Yes please
Naveen Prabhu says:
when is it releasing in india? we have been waiting for a very long time ... :
vivek patelx0x says:
its releasing in 2nd week of fab.....
mrdeezus says:
Hope this fixes the ongoing Bluetooth issues in my 920, so tired of hearing popping sounds and skips when I'm streaming songs through my my Jeeps radio. Also the freeze UPS when I'm internet sharing with Bluetooth streaming.
Angry_Mushroom says:
Great... Just what I needed. Now about that screen auto-brightness idea? Can we get a fix for that?
bsd107 says:
That auto brightness is horrifically bad. I was reading (Stacks/Kindle) on an airplane the other day and the constant brightness pumping was embarrassing, frankly.
cRAZY Canuk says:
Can't beleive this was missing in the first place
Coreldan says:
I don't really get it. Why would I see the effort of flipping over the phone instead of just muting it from the button if I have it screen up? Not only I have putting my phone screen down in fear of scratches, but then I'd end up flipping it again after a while, not to mention it's a lot less effort to just poke one button on the screen if the call comes than pick up my phone, flip it, and put it back down.
More features is great, never just quite understood the value of this one.
joezy says:
ths feature is already available in my Lumia 920 i use it everyday... only difference you dont have an extra menu to be able to deactivate it... Germany here
TofuDelight says:
I'd like to see the whack to silence that MS patented.
DavidinCT says:
Stolen feature from HTC even my WM devices that suppported it had it. Even the Trophy offered this feature...
IT works pretty well on my 8X.... and it did work great on my old Trophy (no longer own)
Onerunjunior says:
I wonder if this works if you have it in your pocket. I can't have my phone face down at school or they will literally send me home. Having a phone visible is a huge no-no, so I hope this works while in a pocket.
PeterFnet says:
Still waiting to be burned by WP9

Calera Council tabled approval on a planning and zoning code after the town's attorney advised them they did not have everything in place.
The council met at 3 p.m. Tuesday for its regular monthly meeting. Chris Jones, the town attorney, told the council they must have a board of adjustment in place. Jones said that a board of adjustment is a board that would hear appeals to zoning decisions and that this board must be made up of five members who are not on the council or the planning and zoning board.
The town currently has a planning and zoning board.
He said state statute requires a board of adjustment and he also recommended the town hire an attorney to make sure everything is properly established.
"You need to implement everything 100 percent for it to work efficiently and properly,"Jones said.
Action on approving fees and permits for planning and zoning was also tabled.
Patrick Latona, head of the planning and zoning board, said they will be meeting with someone who wants to put in a paintball gun store and he hopes to present the information from that meeting to the council during its next meeting.
New council member Eric Pyle took the oath of office. Pyle and incumbent David Westbrook were elected during municipal elections held earlier this month. Pyle's parents, Choctaw Nation Chief Greg Pyle and wife Pat, attended the meeting.
Outgoing Mayor James Eaton was recognized for his 25 years of service to the town, and Town Superintendent Brad Davis presented him with a plaque and thanked him for what he had done for the employees.
Councilmember Vicki Barkley spoke about the town's website, www.caleraok.org. She said the town needs to get the word out that there is a town website and she would also like to set it up so residents can pay bill online.
She said it should be updated on a regular basis, and that if more citizens will check the website, that will alleviate calls to city hall.
"This is something we have done for the people and I want to make it fit their needs," Barkley said.
A notice informing citizens about the website will be posted on the next utility bills.
The council voted to obtain bids to remodel the old fire department bay as a new location for the police department. The current location of the department is a building that is approximately 100 years old and is in poor shape. The building does not have central heat and air.
The council also handled the following agenda items:
- Approved an ordinance to close a portion of West Ryan Avenue so the school can build a new gym
- Approved a Town of Calera seal
- Voted to purchase an ID card printer so identifications can be made for all town personnel

June 7 – Happy Birthday Ed Wells
"Boomer" was not the first Wells to pitch for the Yankees. That honor belonged to today's Pinstripe Birthday Celebrant, a southpaw named Ed "Satchelfoot" Wells. The Tigers originally signed this Ashland, OH native in 1922 with the condition that he could keep attending college full-time and pitch during the summer. He made his big league debut for Detroit in June of 1923. His first manager was the legendary Ty Cobb. Though most guys who played with, against and for the "Georgia Peach" hated him, Wells was an exception. The two got along great even though Cobb admitted he couldn't help his young left-hander get better because he knew nothing about pitching.
Wells was with Detroit for five seasons and went 12-10 for them in 1926 and led the AL with four shutouts that year. But his inconsistency got him released after the '27 season. He spent 1928 with the Birmingham Barons of the Southern League where he went 28-7 and caught the attention of the Yankees. New York brought him to the Bronx in 1929 and he went 13-9 during his first season in pinstripes. He followed that up with a 12-3 season in 1930 but his ERA was over five. Fortunately for Wells he was pitching for an offense that included Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Bill Dickey, Tony Lazzeri, et. al. who made scoring more than five runs per game a habit that boosted the pitcher's winning percentage.
Wells Yankee Stadium locker was situated right in between Ruth's and Gehrig's so he became good friends with both men. He also was the object of one of the Bambino's most famous practical jokes. Ruth invited the pitcher to go on a double date with him after a Yankee road game in Detroit. When the two Yankees knocked on the door of the girl's apartment, a guy claiming to be her husband opened it holding a pistol which he fired directly at Ruth. A horrified Wells turned and ran all the way back to his Detroit hotel. By the time he got there, Tony Lazzeri told him Ruth had been shot and was up in his room asking to see Eddie.
When Wells entered the Babe's suite, the lights were turned down low and Ruth was laying in a bed with ketchup spilled on the white sheets and talcum powder all over his face to feign a dearly pale. Wells took one look at his famous teammate and fainted on the spot.
He ended up pitching a total of four years for New York, before getting sold to the Browns just before the 1933 season started. He had the misfortune of becoming a Yankee right at the time managerial instability. His first Yankee Skipper, Huggins died unexpectedly during the 1929 season and then Bob Shawkey got fired to make room for Joe McCarthy. Wells was 37-20 in Pinstripes and 68-69 when he left the big leagues for good in 1934. He shares his June 7 birthday with this great Yankee catcher.

Impact of Tsunamis on Coral Reefs
Maintained by FAO-FI
Printer-friendly version
Indian Ocean Tsunami and Coral Reefs
On 26 December 2004, a major earthquake off Sumatra and a series of secondary earthquakes throughout the Andaman and Nicobar Islands caused many simultaneous
that radiated around the Indian Ocean. The tsunamis arrived as huge surges of water that powered over the coral reefs to smash on the land, resulting in enormous loss of life and destruction of property. Immediately following the tsunami, many in the local community and volunteers organised beach and reef clean up activities to minimise damage to the coral reefs from debris (sediment and rubble).
The new report
Status of Coral Reefs in Tsunami Affected Countries: 2005
concludes that the major threats to the coral reefs of the Indian Ocean continue to be from human activities, such as over-fishing, deforestation and climate change. These are far more damaging to coral reefs than the tsunami. The report calls for:
the establishment of a tsunami early warning system;
capacity building in integrated coastal management;
improved fisheries management and coral reef monitoring;
the establishment of more marine protected areas;
careful reparation and rehabilitation of tsunami damage; and
development of stronger national oceans policies.

Impact of the tsunami on coral reefs
Damage to the coral reefs in the Indian Ocean was patchy, site dependent and heavily influenced by local environmental conditions such as coastal bathymetry and damage on land. Most of the damage to coral reefs resulted from sediment and coral rubble thrown about by the waves, and smothering by debris washed off the land. Coral reef damage was greatest in Indonesia, Thailand, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and Sri Lanka. Within the affected areas, there was 30% damage in Indonesia and 13% severe damage in Thailand. There was little damage to coral reefs in countries further away from the source of the tsunamis because much of wave energy had dissipated. Fortunately, most of the coral reefs of the region escaped serious damage and will naturally recover within 5 to 10 years providing that effective management is implemented to reduce damage from human activities. A small number of coral reefs were significantly damaged and may take 20 or more years to recover; and they may not return to their previous structure.

Impact of the tsunami on mangroves, seagrasses and beaches
Mangroves and coastal forests afforded the most protection to infrastructure on the land and probably reduced the loss of life in these areas. The coral reefs absorbed some of the tsunami energy, thereby possibly providing some protection to the adjacent land. Damage to mangroves was highly variable, ranging from little damage in many areas, such as Thailand, to the destruction of entire forests in some areas, such as Aceh province, Indonesia. Replanting of mangrove forests will be important to assist recovery. Seagrass beds were largely unaffected in the region as a whole, although some areas were either eroded or smothered by sediments. For example, in the Pulo Aceh islands, seagrass beds were seriously damaged which may affect the dugongs in the future. Again, in the Aceh region, coconut trees were uprooted and turtle nesting beaches completely destroyed; in India, many such beaches were seriously eroded.

In Judges 8:31 we read that Gideon had a son by a slave woman from Shechem. In Judges 9 we read about him appealing to the people of Schechem to follow him, and in verse 2, he says
"Remember, I am your relative." (NCV)
I am curious if this slave woman -- Abimelech's mother -- was an Israelite or not, and
- If so, why would an Israelite be a slave?
- If not, why would Abimelech call the Shechemites his relatives?

text: Loss of local bookstore owner leaves blank pageBy: Tanya Foubert | Posted: Thursday, May 17, 2012 06:00 am To sum up a man like Lawrence Hutchings and the effect he had on the community of Canmore over the last 30 years would be an impossible and downright Herculean task. Fondly called Hutch by all who knew him and even those who knew of him, he went to sleep Friday (May 11) at home with his wife Heath and passed away peacefully in the night. Three weeks shy of his 64th birthday, Heath said her husband of 36 years this June had been in Calgary that day at a CBC book sale, bringing home 23 boxes with titles he had yet to carry in his The Second Story Books store on Main Street. �He was so excited,� she said Monday morning holding back tears. �He died happy inside� he had such a great Friday and he went to sleep very happy and anxious for the next day. �This is a total loss, but there is nothing we can do but heal and go forward. We are a very strong family unit and we are going to get through this.� Heath and sons Greg and Kris said it was a shock that such an important part of their lives is now missing and that the outpouring of emotion and support from the community has been overwhelming. �It is so wonderful; the love is so unbelievable,� Heath said. Grandaughter Maile will be four years old next month and father Kris said since she was born, Hutch was rejuvenated and excited about being a grandfather. He said his father regularly played princess with her and when at Christmas he couldn�t decide between five castles at the toy store, he bought her all of them, a reflection of his kindness and devotion to his family. �He touched people in many ways,� Greg added. �I will really miss our morning chats each day.� Chats with Hutch could be about any subject matter and often fell to municipal politics, even his last post on Facebook spoke of the upcoming byelection for a new mayor. �He knew a little about everything, he was like a walking Wikipedia,� Greg said. �If he didn�t know about it, it wasn�t worth knowing about.� Hutch owned The Second Story Books, which originally opened on the second storey of its present building, for 13 years. Greg said he will take over managing the business and it will remain open for booklovers locally and regionally. It is the only second hand bookstore between Golden and Calgary and draws many of its customers from outside Canmore as a destination retail store. He added he will also continue to be a voice in the community, like his father, to push those in politics and power to be accountable for their decisions. Former Rocky Mountain Outlook editor Carol Picard she appreciated how Hutch always questioned those in power locally and his ability to get straight to-the-point, especially in his letters to the editor, which were always brief, but incisive. �As the local editor, I so valued his plain-spokenness and willingness to state the obvious, share his opinions without fear of criticism and wade into the fray,� she said. Hutch was always helping out in the community, either through supporting the arts or the Bighorn Library�s Bonnie Books program, but he never sought the limelight. �Hutch was one of our earliest partners, literacy has always been one of his big passions in life,� said librarian Rose Reid. �I couldn�t begin to imagine just what the number was, but we have given out 40,000 books in the last five years and a good number came through his bookstore.� Reid and Bonnie Ryan met Hutch through an adult literacy project and when they decided to start the Bonnie Books youth literacy program, they went to him. He was involved in a number of ways, including donating books, discounting books for the program to purchase and allowing people to donate their credit at the bookstore to the endeavour. Bonnie Books provides gently used children�s books to those who would not necessarily have any and it has done that internationally, for youth that have been incarcerated and on the Stoney and Hobbema reserves. Elizabeth Green said his bookstore is a favourite place for locals to linger and browse and chat and learn. �Hutch�s knowledge of the literary world was encyclopedic,� she said. �Just mention only half a title, or a vague recollection of the author�s name, and Hutch would point you to the volume, or come up with a reference.� His family says it was his particular wish that no formal funeral service be held, however, donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation in his memory and a condolence book will be available for people to sign and share their stories at the bookstore. Before being a bookstore owner, Hutch had an impact in the community as a science teacher for over nine years. Through Facebook, many of his former students paid tribute to his inspiration of making science interesting and classroom strategies for dealing with teenagers. A rowdy group in the middle of a lesson would result in Hutch getting quieter and quieter until attention was given as students were more than aware that what he was whispering would be on the next test. Hutch and Heath moved to Lac Des Arcs in 1979 from Calgary and in 1983 relocated to Canmore. �We never looked back, Canmore is home,� she said. Born in Wetaskiwin, Hutch moved several times during his childhood as his father was an RCMP officer. His university education and law degree were at the University of Alberta and, after moving to the Bow Valley, he owned Hutch�s Pizza and worked as a bartender at Rafter Six while finishing his education degree. Green, who is involved with Pine Tree Players, said she was parachuted into local theatre just by meeting Hutch at his bookstore. �His own involvement included almost every aspect of theatre,� Green said. �As director, actor, backstage crew, ticket outlet and sponsor, he was a supporter par excellence of the arts. �Banff Community Theatre, The Mountain Arts Foundation and Live on 7th also drew strength from his support.� The one act play Ringrose the Pirate was his first appearance on stage with Pine Tree in 1998 and his involvement continued until a month ago with his appearance in Babels� in Arms, which he also directed, as part of the most recent set of one-act plays put on by the group. He directed On Golden Pond, I�ll be Back Before Midnight, which he also acted in, and appeared in Sinners and Drinking Alone. However, it was Westray, a play about a mining disaster in Plymouth, Nova Scotia that took the lives of 26 coal miners that was his favourite, said Heath. The couple traveled to Halifax many times and she said they fell in love with the Maritimes. They went to the memorial site and Heath said when he read the play he knew he had to do it here in Canmore. Recently, the 20-year anniversary of the disaster was commemorated and it was on his mind again. Green remarked that in truth words cannot capture the powerfully good influence he had on this community, but as friend and fellow actor Larry Whan posted on Facebook as news of his passing spread through the community: �Hutch, I know you�ll get a standing ovation in heaven.� CommentsThe Rocky Mountain Outlook welcomes your opinions and comments.

Flutters about and spins around.
Wing flutter (constant); vocalizations (on-click)
This pet is a free gift for purchasing the Wrath of the Lich King Collector's Edition. This edition will be sold in stores (in limited quantity) and it will also be found on auction websites the week of November 13, 2008. While this is a rare pet, it's not quite as rare as the original Collector's Edition pets.
I love the Ice Tomb ability. I've won MANY battles with it.
Having worked at Best Buy, I started a tradition/ obsession of buying all the CE's from Blizzard for the WoW pets that came with them. I don't/will never have the classic WoW CE pets, but I have all of the rest so far. This guy followed many toons throughout Northrend.
Blistering Cold does massive damage when stacked with Call Lightning. I always use him when fighting Aki, and I can usually bring down two of her pets with just Frosty
I've found his Blistering Cold can be stacked with Exposed Wounds (or presumably Wild Magic) for massive damage. Of course, the ease of removing it by pet swap makes it less than stellar. You can take someone by surprise with it, but not worth making a strategy around.
Would someone plz help me understand the use of the ability Blistering Cold? It seems pretty useless for the tiny amount of dmg it does. I noticed it is a Frosty only ability so it should be a special ability... worst "special" ability I've ever seen.
Really wish I had bought the special edition to get this pet. :( Truly one of the cutest and best looking whelps out there.
my friend asked for help. He bought this collector's edition but he does not know how he will get the little guy. In an in-game mail? Or shall he redeem some code somewhere?
Thanks for help!
♪ *Sings* There must've been some wyrm nip on that old rope leash I found. For, when I placed it 'round his neck, he began to spin around. Oooooh, Frosty the whelpling, was undead as he could be. And collectors say that he'll come and play, when you buy a Wrath CE! ♪

Vision-Ease Lens Celebrates Career of Campis
October 22, 2012
At a recent retirement party for industry veteran Frank Campis (l), Richard Sellinger (r), national sales manager for Vision-Ease Lens, praised Campis' accomplishments.
PLYMOUTH, Minn.—Vision-Ease Lens (VEL) recently held a party to celebrate the retirement of 12-year VEL employee, Frank Campis. Campis was a key account manager at VEL and is a recipient of American Optical's All-American award and the Good Fellow Award for his efforts in the optical industry.
Campis began his career at Southern California Optical in 1957. He has represented three lens manufacturers—American Optical, Orcolite Optical and Vision-Ease Lens—as well as frame manufacturers Victory and Zyloware.
"All of us at Vision-Ease have greatly enjoyed our association and friendships with Frank," said Doug Hepper, VEL's president and CEO. "It was always a joy to work with Frank, a 'sweetheart of a guy.' His industry knowledge and connections were unmatched. We wish him all the best for a long, healthy and happy retirement."

Recommended Outdoor Activities by Groupon Customers
The golf carts at The Woodlands Golf Club take players on a grassy roller-coaster ride over frequent changes in elevation and down fairways brimming with challenging lies at every turn. Play intertwines perilously with a winding creek at many points, with a scant three holes, like a cautious wicked witch, managing to avoid water altogether. All 18 holes launch players down zoysia grass fairways from one of four tees, challenging each club in the bag en route to greens that hold approaches and roll true. On the last hole, the newly refurbished clubhouse provides a scenic backdrop for the homestretch.
Course at a Glance:
18-hole, par 72 course
Total length of 6,418 yards from the back tees
Course rating of 70.6 from the back tees
Course slope of 123 from the back tees
Four sets of tees per hole
Upon departing from the landing craft, one player ducks behind an upturned boat and takes aim at opposing paintballers as they fend off attacks from the upper level of a concrete bunker. This scene may conjure echoes of historic battles, particularly D-Day, as Wildcat Paintball has modeled one of its outdoor fields on the historic battle of Normandy. Elsewhere, players can snake through the thick, jungle-like brush of the Vietnam field, dive into the castle field's manmade trenches, or sneak into the Old West town of Wildwood. A tournament field littered with barrels and wooden barriers or three speedball fields replete with tractor tires and frequently mowed lawns accommodate marksmen who prefer more traditional paintball settings.
Since Paragliding Unlimited launched its first client in 2003, owner Jiri Sindler and his team have maintained a sterling safety record for their motorized version of airborne sailing. The crew teaches power paragliding, in which a motorized fan and a tank of recycled political bluster give lift to the featherweight craft. Once it has ascended more than 10 feet, its large wing catches the wind and buoys you into the sky. Drivers sit upright in "trikes," their legs extended in front of them as they work the two brakes and the throttle.
The school both belongs to and is recommended by the U.S. Powered Paragliding Association. Instructors will jump tandem with beginning students and immerse experienced pilots in six-day intensives, keeping fliers of all levels safe by capping classes at four students (they prefer a ratio of 1:1 or 2:1). At the accompanying shop, gliders browse clothing, new Nirvana equipment, and used gear. Flights lift off from Gateway Airpark in Pierron, Illinois, which the team selected for the staff's friendliness to paragliders and their ability to twist their bodies into the shapes of passing clouds for realistic trainings on the ground.

The New York Islanders halted a pair of skids with a 4-3 shootout win over the New York Rangers. Frans Nielsen and John Tavares scored in the shootout for the Islanders, who had lost five in a row and eight straight at Madison Square Garden. Evgeni Nabokov made 36 saves and turned aside both shootout attempts to assure the extra point for the Islanders. Martin Biron, making his second start of the season, finished with 28 saves for the Rangers, who were vying for a fourth consecutive win.
Final Score: Carolina 3, Toronto 1
Raleigh, NC (Sports Network) - Dan Ellis posted 22 stops to help the Carolina Hurricanes take a 3-1 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday. Joe Corvo had a goal and an assist while Jussi Jokinen and Jordan Staal also scored for the Hurricanes, who have won three straight and five of six. Nazem Kadri had the lone goal for the Maple Leafs, who had a four-game winning streak snapped. Ben Scrivens gave up all three goals on 33 shots in the loss.
Final Score: Washington 4, Tampa Bay 3
Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - Eric Fehr scored twice and the Washington Capitals held off the Tampa Bay Lightning, 4-3, on Thursday. Troy Brouwer and Jay Beagle each scored, while Mathieu Perreault added three assists for the Capitals, who have won three straight. Braden Holtby stopped 27 shots in the win. Martin St. Louis had a goal and an assist, while Teddy Purcell and Nate Thompson also scored for the Lightning, who are in the midst of a six-game losing streak. Mathieu Garon gave up all four goals on 39 shots in the loss.
Final Score: Montreal 1, Florida 0 (OT)
Sunrise, FL (Sports Network) - Rene Bourque scored the game winner 2:10 into overtime to lift the Montreal Canadiens to a 1-0 victory over the Florida Panthers on Thursday at BB&T Center. Carey Price posted 26 saves to notch his 17th career shutout and help Montreal earn its second consecutive win on the heels of a three-game slide. Jose Theodore performed admirably in defeat, stopping 31-of-32 shots for the Panthers, who have lost three straight and four of their last five.
Final Score: Nashville 3, Phoenix 0
Nashville, TN (Sports Network) - Pekka Rinne recorded 19 saves to notch his second straight shutout, as the Nashville Predators used a three-goal third period to beat the Phoenix Coyotes, 3-0, on Thursday at Bridgestone Arena. Rinne has been lights out of late, posting three shutouts over his last four starts to improve to 6-3-3 on the season. Gabriel Bourque, Nick Spaling and Mike Fisher each lit the lamp for the Predators, who have won two straight. Mike Smith was charged with all three goals on 29 shots for Phoenix, which had won two straight.
Final Score: Colorado 4, Minnesota 3 (SO)
St. Paul, MN (Sports Network) - Matt Duchene tied the game in the third period and scored in the shootout, as the Colorado Avalanche edged the Minnesota Wild, 4-3, at Xcel Energy Center. Colorado goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere turned away a backhander from Zach Parise to begin the penalty-shot tiebreaker. Birthday boy Milan Hejduk, who netted a power-play goal in the second period for his 800th career point, used the same move to beat Minnesota's Niklas Backstrom. Wild captain Mikko Koivu, like Parise, opted for a backhander and he was also denied by the veteran Giguere. Duchene then ripped a wrister past Backstrom's blocker to halt Colorado's three-game slide. Giguere, making his second start of the season, made 26 saves.

Ke$ha is a Man
God I feel dirty just writing her name. Why the hell can't she spell it normally? It pisses me off almost as much as people who write lyke and shyt. There's an "I" there numb nuts! Spell it right or someone who will go unnamed is going to lobotomize you and then send you to Walmart to live out the rest of your days as a greeter. You'd be perfectly qualified for that position or to work at BP. Whichever you choose. And no it's not too late to take jabs at BP, so don't judge me.
God Kesha (No I wont do it, I won't put the dollar sign) you make me so fucking angry. First you release shitty songs (complete with auto tune, I've never considered shooting myself in the ear with a nail gun before I heard you), then you make shitty videos for those songs, then you actually make a picture with Katy Perry in it just "OKAY".
I have long thought she was a man, just look at this picture of her next to one of John Travolta, they are almost identical! I would make a joke about Travolta adopting her because she's retarded, but I like Travolta to much to make fun of his grief, so I'll make due with telling Kesha to FUCK OFF in all caps.
Now Cracked.com has given me more proof that Kesha's panties are full of twigs'n'berries. They broke down the lyrics to her songs Tik Tok (were the hell are the "c's"? I See that you have a problem with letters, C*nt) and Blah, Blah, Blah. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time:
I won't ruin the break down for you, but if you look closely you will see that the author has come to the same conclusion as me. Kesha has balls, and not the kind that you admire, the kind that dangle and chafe.
When will my generation stop putting cracked out, talentless whores on pedestals? Enough is ENOUGH!
And so ends my angry rant.
P.S. I did try to find a good looking picture of her, but every time the word "sexy" and "Kesha" were put together Google had a nervous break down.
What's your take on the abomination that is Kesha?

Jungle Funk
LP (Item 402243) Capitol, Late 60s — Condition: New Copy
Do yourself a favor, and buy this album – you won't be disappointed! The record is a gem all the way through – a really unique mixture of LA soul jazz and African rhythms, with a sound that's almost like Hugh Masekela sitting in with the Jazz Crusaders! Of course, there's a lot of Jazz Crusaders in the set – as Wilton Felder plays electric bass on the album, giving it a fantastic loping groove – but there's also plenty of unique albums on the record, especially its way of approaching the rhythms with a sly, syncopated groove that's immediately infectious! Duke's trumpet solos are great, and they're augmented by tenor work by Chester Washington and trombone by George Bohannon – all nicely grooving on the album's brilliant blend of jazzy tracks. Titles include "Jungle Funk", "Afrikaloo", "Akagruge", "Like It Is", "Mafam", and "Peace Brother". Somebody put this one on CD – and do us all a treat! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Rebecca Minkoff's Top Ten Wardrobe Essentials
As the mastermind behind those wildly popular "Morning After" bags (aimed to make the walk of shame much less shameful) we'd hazard to call Rebecca Minkoff a trendsetter. But, that doesn't mean the she doesn't appreciate a good basic.
While recently filling us in on her first ever jewelry collection—which hit select boutiques and Bloomingdales today—she told us what every women needs in her closet. And, instead of touting python printed overalls and bell bottoms with embroidery, her choices was pretty conservative. She mentioned things like LBDs, white T-shirts and flat boots.
Her advice is not only solid, but shrewd. Because, great classics (like all the items she handpicks below) last forever and ultimately save lots of money. Which just means more cash for the fun stuff—like all the amazing necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings she just debuted. And every wardrobe kind of needs those, too.
Click through the slideshow below to see and shop Rebecca's top ten wardrobe essentials.

Rihanna has been on the longest vaca ever! But if she keeps serving us photos like this she can stay on vacation as long as she wants!
The bad gal is continuing her European vaca by sea and was spotted in Portofino Italy, innocently seducing us as she prepped to get into the water for some snorkeling.
DETAILS: Chris Brown Speaks On His Alleged Reunion With Rihanna
Showing off another piece from her bikini collection, Ri Ri sported a shiny leopard print bikini by JungleGurl to compliment her ASSets.
The We Found Love singer was too hot to handle, even for herself. In drool worthy photos she was seen pouring water on herself and checking out her own cake, cake, cake!
DETAILS: Say What?! Rihanna & Chris Brown Kiss In Public?!
And like her bossman Jay-Z, the 24 year old is a lover of Ace Of Spades' champagne. Once she got back aboard her boat she popped a special pink bottle to share with her girls.
What a life!
Check out Rihanna's drool worthy bikini pics in the gallery above!
If you like Rihanna's bikini as much as we do, head over to JungleGurl.com. They're currently holding a summer sale of RiRi's sexy gold leopard print suit!

Comment posted Misleading instructions to voters: is Duncan Macintyre trawling for 4th preference votes? by Crazy She-Bat.
Who has reported this to the Electoral Commission? It has to be done immediately.

Great tent
By robcami

About Me Casual/ Recreational
Comments about Mountain Hardwear Drifter 3 Three-Person Tent:
This tent work well for my two Boy Scouts (small adult sized) and their dad (6'3") on a recent backpacking adventure. All three fit in the tent to sleep the two nights of their adventure. Also, divded between the three backpacks it didn't add much weight at all.
Comment on this review
By nahatf2
from Kentucky
I got a three person tent with the goal of using it for two people. However, it is smaller than I thought even with that in mind. I've only used it once and we did end up cramming three people (1 guy, 2 girls). We put the fly on and we had a dog in each vestibule. Great place for your dog to sleep if you don't want him in the tent. It was not rainy or windy the night I used it so I can't comment on the windproof or rainproof capabilities.
Perfect Tent
By Rebekkah the Camper
from Newfoundland
I absolutely love this tent. The full fly makes it perfect in all weather!

A new survey of 600 executives in the U.S. and the U.K. conducted by Accenture finds that belief in the business value of analytics at this point is more an article of faith than science.
It's clear that while the executives surveyed are continuing to increase their investments in analytics, only one in five says they are satisfied with the results. More troubling yet, 58 percent say they are still unclear about the business outcomes derived from those investments. And just to make matters even more interesting, half admit they are concerned about data accuracy issues, and only two in five say their analytics efforts to date has yielded any actionable intelligence.
Arguably, analytics as a business science is a work in progress. But as it stands right now it's clear that achieving that goal will be more of an extended journey than a near-term event.

it's a httpRange-14 thing...
httpRange-14 Reflux
Back in 2002, the following issue was put before the TAG:
httpRange-14: What is the range of the HTTP dereference function?
TBL's argument the HTTP URIs (without "#") should be understood as referring to documents, not cars.
By 2005 a resolution was accepted. If a GET is done and the thing being referred to isn't a document, then a 303 redirect should be used to provide something which is a document. As these things go, this is quite an elegant solution. Additionally it's accepted practice to use #-URIs for things which aren't documents. However, both approaches have their problems, many of which are listed in Providing and discovering definitions of URIs.
But I liked the 303 approach, and did my share of grumbling when things like Microformats and OpenID appeared to conflate the notion of a person with their home page, using the same URI for both. Now schema.org conflates lots of different kinds of things with documents. So while I still believe the TAG resolution works well I personally, finally feel we have to take into account that people won't make this kind of distinction. Others have already argued for pragmatism around the issue - e.g. see linking things and common sense and Back to Basics with Linked Data and HTTP. However it's hard not to see a conflict when (e.g.) RDF says "http://example.org/fred is a person" and in effect HTTP says "http://example.org/fred is a HTML page". Not pretty. On the lod list I just had a go at a conceptual model that avoided such a conflict, but I suspect so far I've only managed to persuade Pat Hayes that I'm barmy. So I'll have another go here with these arguments:
1. (solid) : HTTP doesn't have a notion of a "complete" representation of a resource. A photo of a car could reasonably be served as a GIF or lossy-compressed JPG image. The difference here as far as HTTP is concerned is just in the media type expressed by the Content-Type header.
2. (adequate) : a resource may have representations reasonably served with very different media types. Here I'm thinking of, say, a text version of a photo of a car. It may sound clunky, but there are good precedents: an RDF version of My Home Page can vary widely in its information content from a HTML version of My Home Page. In the HTML format, we have img alt="text". In both cases the assertion is made by the publisher that in some sense the different version can act as a useful alternative.
3. (strong enough IMHO) : a description of a resource can be considered a representation of that resource. On list I suggested there was some isomorphism between a description and a thing. Pat didn't accept that at all, but did say "there can indeed be correspondences between the syntactic structure of a description and the aspects of reality it describes". I'd suggest that's near enough. Those correspondences could be said to make the description a representation in the same way a lossy-compressed version of an photo can still share the same URI as an uncompressed version. As long as an appropriate Content-Type is used.
Given these three, a HTTP URI can simultaneously be understood as referring to a document and a car.
I'd better mention the barmy part. If HTTP did support transfer of matter, then as far as the URI referencing is concerned, all you'd be looking at is another media type. The example I used on list was of my dog Sasha, and given the above I'd suggest you could have various different representations of diminishing fidolity: Sasha herself; Sasha's description in DNA; a photographic description of Sasha; an RDF description of Sasha; a HTML description of Sasha... As I put it on list: you can't squeeze a dog over the wire with HTTP, but that's just a limitation of the protocol.

Ad you may or may not have noticed, EQD hit 80million hits! Mandopony composed a song just for the occasion. Thanks man! We appreciate it.
And just a double heads up on the banner source, that one was from Sym-Kensaki on Deviant Art!
YAY! I remember when 2mill was an accomplishment and it took like over a week to get a million too!
This was AWESOME! I can't believe I've been around long enough to remember the four-million banner fight, I'd forgotten all about that haha!
Congrats EqD, on 80,000,000! Off to 90, 100, and beyond!
looking at the view number and how fast its rising it feels like we are celebrating to much... im not complaining at all ^^
I'm proud to say that I contributed to the creation of this video by visiting the site so much! Grats Seth, Cereal, and Phoe!
There should really be an archive of past banners around here somewhere...
If BNL got addicted to ponies?
Awesome song. Glad to have been here to help.
im addicted to his song already and its not even finished yet :O
@Steve Jobs
Well, we've been averaging just under 20 days per 10 million, (just over half a million a day, if you can believe it!) And while we haven't seen the insane increases we did over the summer, safe money puts it in the first week, week and a half of the New Year.
I have been waiting two weeks for my banner to be put up, I guess its not at this point haha :*(.
official theme song of EqD? it damn sure better be
congrats on 80 million!
This is the single most epic thing that has ever been created.
yay!! i wondered if anyone was going to make a song just for EqD
Can't wait for 100 million, or eight eights, for that matter.
A party is in order, yes. Good thing I brought my PARTY CANON!
Great song!
hmmm, need to get a new counter for the site soon xD
This one only goes up to 99'999'999
This shall now be the official theme song of EQD.
It needs to be embedded on the right hand side of the site.
Not really.
When it went to 10 million it changed quite smoothly.
is it just me or is anyone else getting a relient k vibe (or maybe i should just quit listening to them for a while)
I really doubt this site has gotten over 80 million views. I think that ticker on the sidebar is just set to continually count upwards.
If this site has gotten so many views as claimed, I want to see some proof besides a little bar on the side.
:o new episode this day, eqd hits 80m views, it's my birthday (1 hour left, then it's 4 dec for me). Is it my lucky day?
Quick someone tell Pinkie we need the party cannon stat!
We cannot let up, we must continue on to...
One Billion~ views!
At this rate, we'll probably reach the 100 million views before this blog is even one year old... wow.
US Traffic Rank : 9,093
That is all.
I loved his Twilight and Spike one! How did I not know about MandoPony until now?
Where do you think I am right now? This is such a great bucking song! EQD has 80 million hits~
*joins in the party* Thanks so much for the kind words, but we should all be thanking Seth & Co. for their hard work :D If it wasn't for them we wouldn't be here at all! Congrats again and here's to ONE HUNDRED BILLION HITS.
...also... YAY, someone got the Scrubs reference! :D
Congrats to you Seth, Cereal and Phoe for your hard work on the site! And great song MandoPony!
wow this was a great song. Has this guy done any other good songs? Oh, and I can't beleive EQD has almost a hundred milloion views. Ha, I rember the celibration for 10 million, and then I just sort stopped paying attention to the little clicker. You know, we need to start planning somthing big for 100 milllion, when we add another zero to the tiker. Any Ideas what we should do for this monumentous ocation?
Not bad for an original. I like it. A few painful rhymes, but that's to be expected. The music is generic, but you know what? It's better than I could do.
I love it! Congratulations go out to our favorite Blog ponies!
Yeah, I was so going to screencap it too but completely forgot. Total fail on my part. lol
Nice fun song, Mando. Congrats on 80 million EqD!
Ya know, I was just thinking to myself the other day, "Why doesn't EQD have a theme song"? And it came true! EQD is Magic!
Awesome song for an awesome site. Huzzah for the new EQD theme song!
Best. Fan. Song. Ever. Everypony! Spam the views until it is The Most watched video on youtube!
80 million views? wow, thats insane, i never thought ponies would ever get this big
Wooo EqD has a theme song. xD
Only a matter of time before it gets remixed and gets an animated PMV.
CONGRATS on 80 million, and MandoPony I love every single thing about you. EVERYTHING! This song rocked my face!
Congrats! Sadly I haven't been around here for that long, but I hope to be around here for a very long time after.
Also, at this party, will there be tacos? I need the tacos or I'll explode...that happens to me sometimes.
Lastly, I have one of Pinkie's Party Cannons! Where do you guys need...
*guards show up and tackle him*
Agh!! It's for recreational use guys!
C`mon! Honest!
Help! I'm being repressed!
So, I calculated it out.
The site has been around for 324 days (that's including the day it was established but not including the 4th of December, which is the day I'm posting this).
80,000,000 / 324 = ~246,913.6 hits a day.
In actuality the site probably had a lot fewer hits in the beginning and is getting more than that right now (it's only shortly into the 4th and the site is already 500,000 hits over 80,000,000) but we're gonna run with that number for conveniences' sake.
It would take about 10.2 years (~3700 days) from the 3rd of December to reach 1,000,000,000 hits.
As noted, if the current rate is held steady it would probably take quite a bit less than that.
I'd need to take a number of samples of the average number of hits over a full day and calculate an average from that, then subtract whatever the current number of hits at that time is from 1,000,000,000 to get a more accurate estimate.
But assuming it doesn't drop below ~250,000 hits a day here, then at least 10.2 years or less.
Errr, that should be "10.2 years at most assuming the average given."
Seth, you spelled "as" wrong on the post description. Just thought you'd want to know.
This is really reminiscent of Johnathan Coulton.... or, should I say Colton? Either way, awesome song!
I'm going to hell for making that pun, aren't I? XD
Looking back at this post after so, so, long I am awed. Today, long after the original post, EQD has 361,644,257 hits. Looking back always awes me, at what this fandom is capable of and how far it came. Who would have though two and a half years ago that a show about colorful ponies would do this much?
