FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. – The Fort St. John Flyers took advantage of home ice on Saturday to win their first Allan Cup as Canadian senior hockey champions.
Flyers goaltender Clayton Pool made 24 saves as Fort St. John captured the title with a 4-1 win over Bentley, upsetting the Generals hopes for a second consecutive championship.
Todd Alexander gave the Flyers a 1-0 lead on an unassisted goal at 8:05 in the first period.
At 16:44 in the second, Chris Stevens added the eventual game to make it 2-0.
The Generals lone goal came from Scott Hood at 9:09 of the third, but any thoughts of a comeback were quashed late.
Flyers forward Ryan Carter made it 3-1 at 17:04 before Rod Stevens added an empty-net goal in the dying
Jordan Alford stopped 29 shots for the Generals.
Fort St. John went through the tournament undefeated, beating Bentley 7-1 and the Clarenville Caribous 6-3 during round-robin play, and knocking off the South East Prairie Thunder 7-3 in Friday's semifinal.

Building off the success of Mangaro Lait, Cluizel offers another single plantation milk chocolate, but this time he sources from Papua New Guinea and the Maralumi plantation. Although a lighter milk chocolate, the flavor is what sets Maralumi Lait apart and ultimately keeps the standard set high for the competition.

In a rare miss for Cluizel, he produces a bar that is virtually Just Another Milk Chocolate – mild and without any defining characteristics. Cluizel seems to have had the magic touch in the past with milk chocolate but here his interpretation leans towards the decidedly generic. Perhaps this is a conscious decision to retain a milk chocolate in the stable which will please those who want something unchallenging, but if this is the case he might as well have kept the old 33%. Even masters make mistakes.
Out of the box, the bar looks ever-so-slightly ruffled for a Cluizel: that is to say, not immaculate in finish. It's a bit dull, and has a lighter shade of brown than the percentage would normally imply. Nothing fatal here, but it turns out to be a bit of an omen. Still, it's in the aroma that the bar takes a sudden turn for the worse. Immediately the nose is flooded with coffee and – horrors! – rubber. Did Cluizel inadvertently get a poor ferment? Most of the rest of the aroma is buttery, with a very minor suggestion of tobacco, but that rubber keeps on coming back. What's going on?
If the flavour doesn't develop any more off notes, neither does it deliver any spectacular coups either. It's pretty unassuming and mild, starting out with a basic mocha tone before delivering a brief suggestion of cherry. All too soon this flavour dissipates in a coconutty finish, and the overall impression is: not much there. Nothing offensive, but more or less another chocolate that is easy to eat but offers nothing wonderful.
Even the texture is off for Cluizel, decidedly average, it must be said. It has neither the perfect smoothness nor the impossibly fluid creaminess of Cluizel's other chocolates, being pretty middle-of-the-pack, rather similar to Callebaut. And indeed, overall this is a chocolate that might just as easily be replaced by a Callebaut and nobody might notice. Well, we'll give Cluizel a mulligan this time but let this be a bit of a message: Deliver on the new Sao Tome!

Building off the success of Mangaro Lait, Cluizel offers another single plantation milk chocolate, but this time he sources from Papua New Guinea and the Maralumi plantation. At 47% cocoa content, the color is radically affected by the milk solids and looks exactly what you might expect given the inherently light nature of the cacao as well. Light brown, that is, with a strong tint of orange, Maralumi Lait is also matte in gloss, lacking the same brilliant sheen seen on Cluizel's other bars.
The aroma asserts itself strongly with a milky conviction, as subtle traces of the cacao's inherent notes shine through meagerly. Slightly acidic and very much ""pink"" in nature, bananas then add a touch of depth, but the overall fragrance is too much smothered in milk, which therefore leaves me questioning the forthcoming flavor.
Don't let the aroma fool you. Given its milkiness, Maralumi Lait offers a much stronger and more complex transfer of flavor, even if the chocolate is still fairly light and milky in some areas. Its natural acidity is strong and rounds out the profile, while blueberries, bananas, then dates sequentially add curious flavor to an overall pink canvas. Towards the end, the chocolate intensifies and tastes amazingly salty (perhaps umami in effect since it is rather savory), thereby emphasizing the slightly thick texture and somewhat full-bodied feel in the mouth.
Maralumi produces an interesting milk chocolate that might not strike the taste buds as particularly strong or intense, especially in direct contrast to Mangaro Lait. But fortunately, flavor is what sets Maralumi Lait apart; it engulfs you in a blanket of delicacy with a complexity that rivals most bittersweets. Like its dark 64% counterpart, the chocolate remains vibrant and bright (just subdued by the milk) with a decisively pink edge that might appeal to sweeter preferences due to the nature of the flavor, not because of sugar since the sweetness is fairly low. As a whole, most might find Maralumi Lait too subtle in character and perhaps too soft for a milk chocolate. But all this doesn't change the fact that the bar delivers what many milk bars cannot: flavor.

When Ra's al Ghul (Liam Neeson) and Dr. Jonathan Crane (The Scarecrow, played by Cillian Murphy) appeared as villains in Christopher Nolan's 2005 film, Batman Begins, it was obvious that this Dark Knight series would be a drastic departure from the previous Batman movies by Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher.
Sadly, Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy has come to an end, and after a heartfelt farewell letter it's obvious he won't be revisiting Gotham City any time soon. There's still hope, however, that instead of rebooting the Batman franchise (and minimizing Nolan's masterful trilogy), Warner Bros. will find a way to continue the story and put a new twist on some classic villains.
Below are 5 Batman Villains Who Deserved The Christopher Nolan Treatment – impractical, fantastical, altogether colorful bad guys who could be effectively re-worked as gritty, reality-based foes for the Dark Knight…
[Mild spoilers for The Dark Knight Rises ahead...]
At the conclusion of Batman Begins, Lt. James Gordon (Gary Oldman) and Batman (Christian Bale) meet on a Gotham rooftop to discuss their next move in purging the city of crime and corruption. "Now, take this guy," says Gordon, who presents Batman with a clear plastic evidence bag containing what appears to be a single playing card. "Armed robbery, double homicide. Got a taste for theatrical, like you. Leaves a calling card."
Batman turns the playing card over to reveal a Joker. Our fearless Dark Knight examines it a moment and simply replies, "I'll look into it." The card, of course, belonged to Batman's arch-nemesis, The Joker – played fearlessly and brilliantly by the late Heath Ledger. Most of you are probably familiar with the 1960′s Batman television series, with Caesar Romero portraying the clown prince of crime. Romero's Joker was an ultimately harmless, goofy trickster that Hee-Hee'd and Hah-Hoo'd his way through bank heists and criminal capers.
Then, there's Jack Nicholson's performance in Burton's 1989 Batman. Nicholson's interpretation took the fun-loving trickster of '60′s camp and gave him a more murderous edge, but even still the Joker's role was more a comical jester than anything – complete with joy buzzers and acid-squirting flowers. The collaboration of Nolan and Ledger led to perhaps the most intriguing, disturbing on-screen villain in movie history – an anarchist who lives without rules, a dog chasing cars.
District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart), who becomes the villainous Two-Face, also received a considerable upgrade in The Dark Knight. Played by Tommy Lee Jones in 1995′s Batman Forever, Two-Face was nothing more than a schizophrenic sociopath whose absurd costumes and makeup made the '60′s technicolor television show costumes look like funeral attire. By taking the comic book's more outlandish characters and grounding them in reality, Nolan has made them even more iconic and threatening. Eckhart's Dent is a tragic, almost Shakespearean character – a crime-fighting crusader turned into a vengeful murderer by the Joker.
With The Dark Knight Rises, Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) is a high-tech cat burglar whose night-vision goggles resemble cat ears when flipped up. She's never once called Catwoman in the film and instead is referred to only by her real name, Selina Kyle, though some newspaper headlines describe her as 'The Cat.' Then you've got the masked mercenary Bane (Tom Hardy), a terrorist who won't stop until Batman is broken and Gotham is ashes.
Unless you've successfully erased Joel Schumacher's 1997 film Batman and Robin from your mind completely, you'll no doubt remember Bane (played by Robert "Jeep" Swenson) as Poison Ivy's muscle-bound bodyguard, a diminutive criminal transformed into a masked professional wrestler straight out of Mil Mascaras vs. The Aztec Mummy. Needless to say, Hardy's Bane is a menacing, definitive take on the villain. With Nolan's approach to tackling Batman's rogues gallery, I thought it would be interesting to explore 5 villains who could have benefited from 'The Christopher Nolan' treatment.
#5: Oswald Cobblepot (Penguin)
Penguin is a short, rotund villain known for his love of birds and his specialized high-tech umbrellas. Cobblepot is typically portrayed as a 'gentleman of crime' – a high-profile aristocrat and mobster.
Portrayed by Burgess Meredith in the '60s Batman television series, Penguin is known for his signature top hat and cigarette holder. For Burton's 1992 film, Batman Returns, Danny DeVito played a more grotesque, deformed version of Cobblepot that made him a sideshow freak – a living, breathing fish boy with flipper hands.
It would have been great to see Cobblepot as a mob boss at some point in The Dark Knight Trilogy. I always loved the idea of Philip Seymour Hoffman playing Penguin as Gotham's kingpin of crime, a monocle-wearing aristocrat that deals in high society and heavy artillery. Of course while Penguin isn't a physical threat to Batman, he's one of the Dark Knight's more resourceful, intelligent villains – which would make him perfect for a team-up with a more brutish, bone-breaking villain…
#4: Waylon Jones (Killer Croc)
Waylon Jones was born with a condition diagnosed as epidermolytic hyperkeratosis, a disfiguring skin disorder. After further study, it is determined that Jones has a form of regressive atavism, meaning that he has inherited the traits of reptiles. As a result, Crock's skin is hardened and scaly, impenetrable to bullets and blades.
Killer Croc has been interpreted in ways that make him truly monstrous – similar to Spider-man's Lizard, but Brian Azzarello and Lee Mermejo's Joker graphic novel shows Croc as an African-American crime boss with a skin disease that occasionally enjoys feeding on human flesh.
In The Dark Knight Rises, there's a throwaway line by John Blake (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) about a giant alligator in the sewers of Gotham – a respective nod to Killer Croc, one of Batman's more monstrous foes. It would have been cool to see someone like Idris Elba as this deformed reptile man who makes the sewers of Gotham his kingdom – a massive, impossibly strong bad guy that would push Batman to his limits.
#3: Edward Nash (Riddler)
Known under the aliases of E. Nigma (Nygma), Edward (Eddie) Nashton, and Eddie Nash, Riddler is obsessed with riddles, puzzles, and word games. He delights in flaunting his genius by sending both Batman and Gotham's finest complex clues about his criminal exploits.
What separates Riddler from other members of Batman's rogues gallery is the fact that he isn't really a psychopathic murder, but rather a narcissist with an enormous ego. He orchestrates elaborate puzzles and mysteries to flaunt his intellectual superiority over Batman and Commissioner Gordon.
Jim Carrey played the inquisitive instigator in Batman Forever, as an employee of Wayne Enterprises who invents a device that manipulates the minds of the wearer. Nygma uses the device to increase his own intelligence, making him a diabolical genius who aims to ruin Batman's legacy (and the power of Batman's symbolism) by revealing the man behind the mask.
Personally, I would love to see someone like Michael Fassbender or Ryan Gosling bring a murderous, deadly edge to Riddler. Imagine Riddler as a Fincher-esque serial killer from Se7en or Zodiac, murdering Gothamites and leaving elaborate ciphers and clues for Batman to solve. We would get to see the detective side to Batman as he uses advanced gadgetry (courtesy of Morgan Freeman's Lucius Fox) to examine forensic evidence and the clues Riddler has purposely left at crime scenes.
#2: Dr. Victor Fries (Mr. Freeze)
Fries is a brilliant scientist confined to a cryogenic suit that keeps him alive. In the most common variation of his origin story, Fries was a genius in the field of cryogenics who suffered an industrial accident while attempting to cure his terminally-ill wife, Nora.
After Arnold Schwarzenegger's performance in Batman and Robin, it's easy to dismiss Mr. Freeze as a potential villain in Nolan's Batman universe – but consider for a moment if the character was played straight.
I could easily see Hugh Jackman (think The Fountain) sporting a bald head, using icy gadgets to secure capital in finding a cure for his cryogenically frozen wife. One thing's for sure, Nolan's Freeze wouldn't be spouting off one-liners like, "You're not sending me to the cooler!" or "Allow me to break the ice!"
#1: Harleen Quinzel (Harley Quinn)
Created by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm, Harley Quinn first appeared in Batman: The Animated Series as female sidekick for the Joker. Harleen Quinzel was an Arkham Asylum psychiatrist who became fascinated with the Joker's psychiatric profile (and his bizarre crimes) and soon fell hopelessly in love with him. After helping Joker escape the asylum, Harleen is driven mad and quits her psychiatrist job only to don a sexy, skintight jester costume and become Harley Quinn.
If Heath Ledger were still alive, it's hard to say what The Dark Knight Rises could have entailed. When we last saw the Joker at the end of The Dark Knight, Batman strung him up for Gotham's SWAT unit to apprehend – no doubt throwing him in a padded cell for the rest of his life. I could imagine Dr. Quinzel (perhaps played by Carey Mulligan or Michelle Williams) as a young psychiatrist at Arkham (a former intern of Dr. Jonathan Crane) who frees the Joker from his cell and joins him as an agent of chaos.
Maybe there's an epic tag-team match waiting to happen with Batman and Catwoman taking on Harley Quinn and the Joker – but alas, the Joker died with Heath Ledger, and it's better that his character is not mentioned during The Dark Knight Rises. With eight years in between the two films, I like to imagine the numerous scenarios that could have involved Ledger's character. Could he have escaped Blackgate Penitentiary when Bane led the riotous prison break? Or is he still locked up in the secure wing of Arkham, sitting in a dark corner of his padded room rocking back and forth – laughing – repeating, "It's all part of the plan" ad infinitum.
What do you think? What Batman villains deserved 'The Christopher Nolan' treatment? Just for fun, it'd be hilarious to see SNL's Bill Hader doing his Vincent Price impersonation as EggHead – or maybe Will Sasso as King Tut? OK, I'm kidding – I'll stop the '60s Batman references… but seriously, some days you just can't get rid of a bomb – something Adam West and Christian Bale can both relate to.

I wholeheartedly agree. The movie had a predictable plot and honestly had too much of a superhero flick feel to it. Sounds weird, but when watching TDK it doesn't have the whole "yay for superheros and friendship and goodness" feel, whereas DKR definitely does.
agreed with you
yet the best catwoman was tim burton one, michelle pfiffer
nolan had planned to cast harley quinn, he was thinking in madonna to do that character
it was the reason why he did commit suicide
No. Christopher Nolan ruined enough characters. He destroyed the Batman universe for me. His movies are complete crap. Tim Burton made the best live action Batman movies so far.
All, except Harley Quinn. Cloudly with a chance…
The girl who played Hit-Girl in kick-ass should be harley. That would be so much fun.
I liked Batman Arkham City's take on The Penguin where instead of wearing a monocle he had a broken bottle shoved into his face.
sheri moon zombie has it all to be a perfect Harley Quinn , the height the crazy killer look , the evil beauty

Rosslyn is an unincorporated area in Northern Virginia located in the northeastern corner of Arlington County, Virginia, north of Arlington National Cemetery and directly across the Potomac River from Georgetown in Washington, D.C. Rosslyn encompasses the Arlington neighborhoods of North Rosslyn and Radnor/Ft. Myer Heights. Characterized as one of several "urban villages" by the County, the numerous skyscrapers in the dense business section of Rosslyn make its appearance in some ways more urban than nearby Washington.
The local TV station affiliate of ABC in the Washington, D.C. area WJLA-TV "ABC 7" is located in Rosslyn at 1100 Wilson Boulevard. The Art Institute of Washington is located at 1820 North Fort Myer Drive. The United States Marine Corps War Memorial, also known as the Iwo Jima Memorial, is located in Rosslyn adjacent to Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington Boulevard (U.S. Route 50), and Fort Myer. On the grounds of the Memorial, and offering views of the Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, and United States Capitol, is the Netherlands Carillon. Freedom Park, opened in 1996, offers seating and views of Washington DC.
In Virginia's colonial period, Rosslyn's shoreline contained a landing for Awbrey's ferry, which transported travelers to and from Georgetown. A community that gradually developed behind the shore became known as Ross Lynn, the name of a local farm owned by William and Carolyn Ross. During the 1830s and 1840s, the Aqueduct Bridge was constructed between Georgetown and Rosslyn. When completed in 1843, this bridge carried the Alexandria Canal, which transported canal boats from the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal in Georgetown to the downstream port of Alexandria, Virginia.[1]
Following the American Civil War in the 1860s, a lawless community developed at the base of the bridge. Known primarily for its gambling halls, pawnshops, saloons, brothels and unsavory inhabitants, the community failed to attract much development other than the Arlington Brewery, which became a Cherry Smash soft drink bottling plant after Prohibition went into effect. Eventually, spurred by the real estate potential that the arrival of electric trolleys in the 1890s inspired, developers and reformers ousted Rosslyn's more unsavory elements in the early 20th century. Nevertheless, Rosslyn remained primarily known for its pawnshops and used car dealerships for many years.[citation needed] The Aqueduct Bridge connecting Rosslyn to Georgetown was replaced by the Francis Scott Key Memorial Bridge in 1923.[2]
In 1964, the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge opened to carry Interstate 66 (I-66) between Washington, D.C., and Rosslyn. Soon afterwards, a development boom in the 1960s began to revitalize Rosslyn with the construction of a large number of high-rise office buildings and hotels in its center and a smaller number of residential buildings on its outskirts. Arlington County widened Rosslyn's major streets to accommodate the increased motor vehicle traffic that this new development would bring. A skywalk system carried pedestrian traffic over these widened streets.[3] While planners expected retail establishments to develop along the skywalks, few such establishments actually opened. As a result, the skywalk system attracted few pedestrians. The Arlington County government has since announced plans to dismantle some or all of the bridges that carry the skywalks over Rosslyn's broad streets.[4]
During the Watergate scandal of the early 1970s, "Deep Throat" (W. Mark Felt) passed information to Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward in the middle of the night in an underground parking garage at 1401 Wilson Boulevard in Rosslyn.[5]
In 1977, Metrorail's Blue Line reached Rosslyn. In subsequent years, the Blue Line and the Orange Line were extended from an underground junction near the Rosslyn station to serve Northern Virginia's suburbs. In the early 1980s, I-66 was extended through Rosslyn to reach the Capital Beltway. The extensions of Metrorail and I-66 attracted additional high-rise development to Rosslyn.[6]
In 2003, the Virginia Baseball Stadium Authority attempted to attract the relocating Montréal Expos to Northern Virginia by proposing three Arlington County locations for a new baseball stadium. Two sites were in the urban village of Pentagon City; the third was a site in the southeastern corner of Rosslyn that was already occupied by four cooperative buildings, formerly the historic Arlington Towers, which were the first high-rise towers in Arlington County, now known as River Place.[7] The issue proved highly divisive, and Virginia's bid failed when Virginia Governor Mark Warner ruled out state financing for stadium construction.[8] The Expos moved to D.C. after the 2004 season to become the Washington Nationals, with a new stadium built in southeast Washington.[9]
The original corporate headquarters of the USA Today newspaper, owned by the Gannett Company, was located in Rosslyn. Both the company and the newspaper occupied two high-rise silver-colored towers, built in the early 1980s, which adjoin each other at 1000 and 1100 Wilson Boulevard. Gannett did not own these buildings, and moved from their original home to a new campus in Fairfax County, Virginia in 2002. In the same year, the ABC-affiliated Channel 7 news station for Washington, D.C. (WJLA-TV) moved into the space in Rosslyn previously occupied by USA Today.[10]
As of 2010, Rosslyn has 8,100,000 square feet (750,000 m2) of office space and 6,365 housing units.[11] Some of the tallest condominium buildings in the Washington metropolitan area are located in Rosslyn, including Waterview tower, River Place, and Turnberry tower.[12]
Construction of 1812 N Moore in Rosslyn which began in 2010, is expected to be finished by 2013, and will become the tallest building in the Washington Metropolitan Area.[13]
Arts and culture[edit]
Annual cultural events[edit]
The Arlington County Government operates the 367-seat Rosslyn Spectrum Theater.[14][15] Five annual film festivals are held in Rosslyn. The Washington DC Independent Film Festival runs for nearly two weeks in March showing independent films from around the world in various locations in and around Washington, DC. In 2011 Rosslyn hosted over 30 film screenings as well as classes, seminars and workshops led by industry professionals.[16][17] The Annual NoVa International Jewish Film Festival is held each spring in Rosslyn and other Virginia locations.[18] The Rosslyn Outdoor Film Festival runs in the spring and summer months showing popular films for free in Gateway Park Friday evenings at dusk.[19] Slapsticon is a four day film festival in July that features silent films, occasionally accompanied by live musicians, as well as early films with audio tracks.[20] The Rosebud Film & Video Festival is an all day event in November that features original works by regional film and video makers.[21] The Rosslyn Jazz Festival, started in 1991, attracted 10,000 attendees in 2006.[22] The annual US FreedomWalk Festival, started in 2000, draws walkers from around the world each Fall for a weekend of walks in Rosslyn and nearby areas.[23]
Museums and other points of interest[edit]
The Marine Corps War Memorial in Rosslyn is visited by over 1 million annually.[24] Among these visitors are audiences for the Sunset Parades performed Tuesday evenings during the summer months by the United States Marine Drum and Bugle Corps with the Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon.[25] Crowds also gather at the Memorial on the 4th of July to watch the national fireworks display.[26]
The Netherlands Carillon in Rosslyn is a set of 50 bells housed in a 12 story tower between Arlington Cemetery and the Marine Corps War Memorial. The carillon is a gift from the Netherlands to the USA in recognition of support received during World War II. Originally installed with 49 bells, a 50th was added by the Netherlands in 1995 on the 50th anniversary of the liberation of the Netherlands. Each spring the grounds are planted with thousands of tulips imported from the Netherlands. During the summer months carilloneurs play concerts on the bells using a keyboard located in the tower. The tower is occasionally open to the public and offers views of the national monuments in Washington, DC, the Marine corps War Memorial and Arlington Cemetery.[27]
Arlington Temple United Methodist Church in Rosslyn, claims to be the world's only church built on top of a gasoline station.
Rosslyn is a transportation hub for the subway and highway systems. It contains the intersection of U.S. Route 29 (Frances Scott Key Bridge and Lee Highway), Virginia State Route 110 (Jefferson Davis Highway), the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and I-66 (Custis Memorial Parkway). U.S. Route 50 (Arlington Boulevard) connects with all of these routes in and near Rosslyn.[citation needed] Washington Metro's Blue and Orange Lines service the Rosslyn Metro station.[29]
There are 14 Metrobus lines to the urban village. There is a shuttle run by Georgetown University.[30] A DC Circulator route connects Rosslyn with Georgetown and Dupont Circle in Washington, D.C.[31] There are 2 private bus companies that provide service between the Rosslyn Metro Station and New York City. Vamoose Bus provides daily service from 1801 N Lynn Street in Rosslyn to Penn Station/Madison Square Garden in Midtown Manhattan in New York City. Tripper Bus provides daily service from 1901 N. Moore Street to the Macy's flagship store on 34th Street In New York City.[32]
Multiple cycling and pedestrian trails are present in Rosslyn, connecting Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. The paved Custis Trail travels through Rosslyn along Interstate 66. By traveling southeast on the Custis Trail and crossing the George Washington Memorial Parkway, one can reach the paved Mount Vernon Trail, which travels downstream on the Virginia side of the Potomac River to Alexandria and Mount Vernon, as well as the unpaved Potomac Heritage Trail, which travels upstream near the riverbank to the Capital Beltway. By heading west along the Custis Trail, one can reach the Washington and Old Dominion Railroad Trail, which travels for 45 miles (72 km) through Northern Virginia. One can also cross the Francis Scott Key Bridge at the end of Lynn Street and pick up the unpaved C&O Canal towpath or the paved Capital Crescent Trail in Washington. By heading south on North Lynn Street, one can cross over U.S. Route 50 and travel through the grounds of the Marine Corps War Memorial to reach a paved trail that travels along the wall of Arlington National Cemetery to Memorial Drive. A sidewalk and paved path along the Drive connects in Lady Bird Johnson Park on Columbia Island to the Mount Vernon Trail and to the wide sidewalk of the Arlington Memorial Bridge, which crosses the Potomac into Washington.[citation needed]

Grand Forks Man in Custody After High-Speed Chase
A Grand Forks man is in jail after a high speed chase through Larimore last night.By: David Schwab, WDAZ
A Grand Forks man is in jail after a high speed chase through Larimore last night.
The chase began at about 5:15 west of Grand Forks on U.S. Highway 2 then into the town of Larimore.
The Sheriff's Department says 31-year-old Joseph Bruce is wanted on warrants for failing to appear for probation violations and assault charges.
Bruce abandoned his car in Larimore and fled on foot. Deputies later found him hiding in an abandoned trailer house just after 7 pm.
Bruce faces charges of refusing to halt, reckless endangerment and criminal mischief.

Wild Hog Bigger Than 'Hogzilla'
The AP writes:
Meet Monster Pig. An 11-year-old Alabama boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. Think hams as big as car tires.
Yeah, that's pretty big. I guess. Although I'm a little surprised it went down with a pistol. This thing looks like a missile wouldn't even stop it.

This phase II trial is studying how well E7389 works in treating patients with recurrent or progressive stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as E7389, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage IIIB Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer |
Drug: eribulin mesylate |
Phase 2 |
Study Type: | Interventional |

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments about NYPD Police Toddler Costume:
I was very excited to find this costume in a toddler size. However, it is labeled 3T-4T and the size chart says 2T-4T fits 34"-36" and 32-36 lbs, but IT IS HUGE! While I am glad I finally found this costume, my child is completely unable to wear it unless I have it seriously altered. The size chart is very misleading and now I am stuck trying to decide if I should return it or spend more than its worth to make it fit.

Stock Option
Definition of 'Stock Option'
A privilege, sold by one party to another, that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy (call) or sell (put) a stock at an agreed-upon price within a certain period or on a specific date.
In the U.K., it is known as a "share option". |
Investopedia explains 'Stock Option'
American options can be exercised anytime between the date of purchase and the expiration date. European options may only be redeemed at the expiration date. Most exchange-traded stock options are American.

In the months leading up to RCMA 2009, attendees fretted about January weather in the host city, Grand Rapids, Mich. But a funny thing happened on the way to the conference: Grand Rapids had better weather than most of the United States during the week of RCMA. The Michigan city enjoyed the last word on weather.
Grand Rapids leaders told attendees that "the climate of our city is not determined by our weather." Indeed, Grand Rapidians' sunny outlook was on display all week through outstanding, friendly, sincere service. RCMA experienced the warmth of Grand Rapids during a busy schedule of education, motivation, entertainment, and networking.
RCMA 2009 featured captivating speakers, an impressive array of tutorials, terrific evening entertainment, and hands-on learning opportunities.
Diving Into Digital
By noon Tuesday, participants in RCMA's Behind-the-Scenes Experiences already had gained valuable insight into many areas of meeting planning. RCMA is the only organization that provides attendees with the opportunity to see what goes on behind the scenes to make a meeting happen, and members took full advantage of that opportunity at venues around the city.
A dozen RCMA members made the digital media plunge, creating a blog, a short video, and a photographic slide show of their Behind-the-Scenes Experience at the Grand Rapids Community Media Center. The purpose of the exercise was to expose planners to the wealth of free services and to the ease of use of multimedia.
Among the other Behind-the-Scenes was a visit to the Grand Rapids Press newspaper, where attendees created the front page of a newspaper and enjoyed a tour of one of the most highly regarded printing facilities in the world.
Tuesday afternoon, RCMA members had their choice of Grand Rapids city tours, which included stops at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum and the Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park.
Tuesday night's reception, "Carnival On the Beach," was held at DeVos Place and gave attendees the chance to enjoy fellowship in a festive atmosphere of games, activities, and even a Ferris wheel.
Make Peace
Wednesday morning's keynote speaker, Stef du Plessis, told the tale of a troubled man seeking enlightenment. He visited a wise man and said that he was not happy with where he was living. He did not like his neighbors and wanted to move to a nearby town where the people were better. The wise man told him that nothing would change for him in the new location because people everywhere are the same; wherever you go, there you are.
The point is that we take ourselves with us, and with us comes all our baggage.
"Let go of what is not yours," advised du Plessis, who traveled 30 hours by air from his home in Johannesburg, South Africa, to be with RCMA. "Make peace with those you need to make peace with and get on with your life."
Earlier in the general session, Doug Small of the Grand Rapids CVB greeted RCMA. "I offer a resounding welcome to the best of the best in conference planning."
Put to the Test
Class was in session at the Thursday morning general session — distinguished faculty from the "University of Expanded Knowledge" convened to test attendees' collective meeting-planning expertise.
Using audience-response technology, the crowd answered nearly 40 questions posed by the "dean" of the university, Edward E. Scannell, CMP, CSP (Center for Professional Development and Training). Questions covered the width of meeting-planning issues, including contracts, attrition, logistics, and more.
The keen insights included this one on contracts from the "professor" of law, Jonathan T. Howe (Howe, & Hutton Ltd.): As long as there is intent, "You can write a contract on the side of a cow." Howe's mini-lecture on contracts was in response to the question of whether a contract signed by both parties and written on a napkin is enforceable. The legal scholar also offered the student body this piece of wisdom: "My definition of a contract? It's a self-inflicted wound."
The conference's luncheon speakers, Bobbie Staten and Jackie Pflug, touched their listeners in very different ways. Staten delivered her wisdom through humor, while Pflug shared the lessons she learned as the survivor of a harrowing hijacking in 1985. "Strange as it sounds, I feel that I am truly blessed," Pflug said. "What first appears in our lives as a major setback really tests our ability to grow."
History, and Then Feats of Flexibility
Wednesday evening, attendees boarded buses for a two-part night of fun. The first stop was the Grand Rapids Public Museum, where attendees enjoyed the exhibit of collections A-Z, as well as a zoology exhibit, a display featuring regional wildlife, a display that explained the furniture-making history of the region, and more. Guests also were able to take a ride on the historic, 1928 Spillman Engineering Co. carousel.
The next stop was a performance at the Van Andel Arena by the New Shanghai Circus. The Asian acrobats awed the appreciative audience with daring demonstrations of flexibility, balance, strength, and timing.
Center of the Action
The expo floor, always a favorite meeting place for attendees, was abuzz with representatives from convention and visitors bureaus, hotels, convention centers, campus and nonprofit facilities, and the full range of religious-meetings service providers. The sold-out expo offered more than 350 booths.
Equally important to attendees were the tutorials, held Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning. The tutorials offered advice on an array of topics. RCMA members were great students, taking notes, asking questions, and sharing ideas, and they left the sessions anxious to put the advice to use.
'My Treat and My Honor'
RCMA gathered Thursday evening for the annual gala.
RCMA President Tom Jackson presented the 2008 President's Award to Jackie Walker, convention-meeting planner, Church of God Executive Office, Lawrenceville, Georgia. Each year the President's Award is given to an individual who has rendered distinguished service to RCMA and the field of religious conference management.
"It's my treat and my honor to be part of this for now 19 years," Walker said in accepting the award. "I believe in this organization, I believe in you, and I believe in our future. Thank you."
The evening was capped by dazzling renditions of Broadway hits performed by regional vocalists Kelly Carey, Cici Gramer, Larry Young, and Stephen Gray.
Food for Hungry Children
RCMA came to a close Friday morning with a breakfast hosted by the Fort Worth, Texas, CVB, which will welcome RCMA for its 38th world conference January 26-29, 2010. RCMA conducted its annual business meeting, followed by speaker Bryan Townsend.
At the meeting, RCMA Executive Director DeWayne S. Woodring announced that RCMA again has donated $100,000 to the World Food Programme to feed hungry children worldwide. It is the fourth consecutive year that RCMA has made a $100,000 gift to the WFP.
As the meeting closed, bright sunshine accompanied the attendees as they began their journeys home; the warmth and brilliance of Grand Rapids never stopped.

"What did you learn at RCMA that you will use in your job?"
The seminars were phenomenal. This was my first year, so [the experience] was invaluable. I took the Behind-the-Scenes at the convention center. It was eye-opening. Now I know how much behind-the-scenes there is.

Behind-the-Scenes with the ad agency was wonderful.
One thing that I learned about is Web sites. We are two years behind and trying to update. [I learned that you need to know] what will attract our people and about the legal issues of a Web site. We're starting over from scratch and hiring a new designer. We're aiming to the youth, so we're looking at blogs and Twitter and knowing the legal ramifications of those applications.

It was an excellent conference. The tutorials were great. The leadership group was excellent. I would wish for more days to attend the tutorials. I would have loved to attend every one of them.
The Behind-the-Scenes that was done at the Amway Hotel was a wonderful experience. They touched on every department in the hotel: the finance department, the kitchen, housekeeping, catering.
We really got to see how they work together and how all those pieces work together to make events successful.

I was reminded again of the power of WOW! Participatory elements are critical to the success of a program, an exhibit hall, or a reception. I saw that while:
Watching people stand in line to make a music video with two friends at the opening night reception;
Seeing folks desiring to play video games at booths in the exhibition hall;
Being drawn in to have a portrait photo taken after registration; and
Participating in the "breakfast orchestra" playing the musical tubes on our table.
When people are actively involved, they are engaged. And when they are engaged, they are happy.

Seems warm to me. I got a 40" 120hz LED LCD for a little less than this, and that was over a year ago. After all those amazon TCL 40" deals for $200-$260 over the holidays, it's hard to get excited about this one.
Not bad, seems to be about 10% off everyone else.
I'll go thumbs up because I personally would prefer buying a $400 name brand LCD over a $300 off-brand 120hz LED-LCD. LED backlighting offers some nice perks when done properly, but cheap brands seem to just want to label the TV as "LED," to make the sets thinner, and generally not care much about bad backlighting. They just know "LED" is a buzzword that lets them price the TV 10% higher so in go the LED backlights and the masses of buzzword sheep flock to them. I can hear them coming, with their usual beliefs that you can compare televisions by reading the specs on the box and picking the one with the most "features". "120Hz" is again another buzzword that lets them mark up the TV further without worrying about picture quality. When done well, the "120hz" effect can be cool, but most TVs warrant just turning it off.
I bought this as an open box from Best Buy a month ago for $350 (the new units were marked down to $399, but only had open box left in stock). I love this TV, but beware, it has ONLY optical out for sound, not even a headphone jack. As such, I can't use my Turtle Beach headset with it until I buy a digital/analog decoder, or get a new headset. This may not be a dealbreaker (it wasn't for me), but it definitely is a negative.
[edit] After a bit of googling, looks like I have the 40E210, which has no analog out, this unit appears to have it. Great price!
does anyone know how newegg delivers the tv's? Specifically, does one have to be home when it is delivered?
I own this TV and it is very nice. Colors are nice and the sound is decent. I am not 100% if this is a newer model than mine, but, the only complaint I have about mine is the TV stand.
For what it's worth... The TV does not sit well in the stand (a fork-like attachment is screwed to the TV and then the two prongs from that attaachment are set into the base to hold it upright), it is pretty wobbly. I would recommend mounting it over using the stand.
I like this TV. Bought it year ago from amazon for around ~$400. Been pretty good so far.
I think deliveries for TV's under 42' are done by UPS/Fedex, well at least for Amazon. Would assume same goes for Newegg
I can't tell if this is a good deal or not D: im such a noob. My father wants a TV for his room about this size nothing big, that he can mount on his wall. Do you guys think for this price and whatnot the TV will do? All we'll be doing is connnecting a Blueray Player to Watch Netflix on it... thoughts? Thanks
