Camera battery & charger worked great, and arrived in a timely fashion. Recommend highly.
This product worked perfectly right out of the box. I ordered it to replace the original that I lost during a move. I only needed the charger, so now I have a backup battery that came with this charger. Great product.
like the fact that it also included a car charger and extra battery.
My camera was a gift from someone who bought a new one. I never received the charger or an extra battery, so I was delighted to find just what I needed online at Overstock. Thanks for having what I needed available and at such a good price.
Went shopping for a charger for my digital camera at Best Buy. They wanted $50 just for the charger. Item I bought on Overstock included the charger, a car adapter, and a new battery for only $13 including the shipping! Great Deal. Can't believe want Best Buy was trying to charge me!

Current schedule has I-5 Skagit River Bridge span sliding into place Saturday night
(BURLINGTON)– The WSDOT is just about ready to install the permanent span in the Interstate 5 Skagit River Bridge. The girders are in place and the rail system for moving the span is ready. The final step, pouring the concrete deck, is on schedule to be completed early this week. Once the concrete is cured, the permanent span is ready to be installed. Barring any last minute schedule changes, drivers will wake up to a new, permanent span this Sunday morning. In spite of the complexity of the project, its fast-paced schedule and the recent heavy rain, contractor crews working for the WSDOT are ready to put the finishing touches on the new span, and slide it into place Saturday night. "The contractor will detour I-5 traffic through the cities of Burlington and Mount Vernon for approximately 12 hours to remove the temporary spans and install the permanent span," said Assistant Regional Administrator Jay Drye. "Moving bridges is not easy. Drivers need to stay engaged and plan for detours."

National Doodle Day at Swanmead School in Ilminster
11:30am Wednesday 19th March 2014 in News By Daniel Milligan
DOODLING was celebrated at Swanmead School in Ilminster as youngsters got creative last week.
On Friday, the school took park in National Doodle Day, an initiative which allows pupils to spend tutor time doodling and being creative.
Inspired by the work of famous artist Jon Burgerman, pupils were able to submit their doodles in a national competition with a chance of winning a great prize.
To submit their artwork each child had to pay £1 and the school sent the proceeds to Epilepsy Action.
Head teacher Mark Walker said: "This was a really effective and rewarding activity to get involved in.
"Tutor time was really quite special with children quietly listening to music and enjoying the opportunity to let their minds run free while free drawing.
"This is something we'll certainly get involved in again."

The Texas Rangers and the St. Louis Cardinals are meeting in the 2011 World Series, which kicks off Wednesday night. They're two excellent teams who each deserve to be where they are, because I don't know how a team in the World Series wouldn't deserve to be in the World Series. Could an eliminated team just fly to the location and beat one of the participating teams to the park? Could that team then successfully trick the necessary officials into believing that they made it instead? That team wouldn't deserve to be in the World Series, although it would deserve some points for cunning.
Now, there's an interesting thing about the Rangers/Cardinals matchup - they've pretty much never played, ever. The Rangers have played well over 8,000 games in their franchise history. Three of them have been against the Cardinals. The Cardinals have played well over 17,000 games in their franchise history. Three of them have been against the Rangers. The Rangers and the Cardinals have been, historically, the Cardinals' and the Rangers' least familiar opponents.
So I thought now would be a good time to introduce one team to the other team's fan base. You want to have a good understanding of who your team is going up against in the championship, right? I briefly considered introducing the Cardinals to Rangers fans and introducing the Rangers to Cardinals fans, but then I realized I have a much better understanding of the Rangers than the Cardinals, myself, so I'm only doing the second one. Cardinals fans: here are the things you need to know about the big bad ballclub from Texas.
History against the Cardinals
We might as well start off with those three games. Those three games took place between 6/11-6/13 in 2004. The Cardinals won two of them, and outscored the Rangers 27-16. Three games, 27 runs. The Rangers' three starting pitchers were Juan Dominguez, Ryan Drese and R.A. Dickey, and as for the position players, there was an alarming amount of Hank Blalock, Brad Fullmer and Alfonso Soriano. Of all the Rangers to appear in that series, the only one still with the team is Michael Young. At that point he batted leadoff and played shortstop. He doesn't do either of those things anymore.
History overall
The Rangers' franchise history is really embarrassing and they'd probably prefer that I not talk about it. Originally the terrible Washington Senators, they moved and became the Texas Rangers in 1972. They didn't finish first in their division until the strike-shortened 1994, when they went 52-62 and got outscored by 84 runs. They didn't actually play a playoff game until 1996, and they didn't win a playoff series until 2010. Until last season, the Rangers had as many playoff series wins as the two bicyclists who just rode by outside my window as I was composing this sentence. That was convenient. The best player the Rangers have ever had is (wrongly) considered by many to be the worst decision the Rangers have ever made.
Of course, the Rangers' embarrassing history is pretty much irrelevant because oh shit you better look the f&@% out now. In 2009, the Rangers won 87 games. In 2010, the Rangers won 90 games and made the World Series. In 2011, the Rangers won 96 games and made the World Series. They're a fantastic team in every respect, with a great front office, a great major league product, a great minor league system, and a whole bunch of money. I don't know if they can be called MLB's best organization as long as the Rays are around and doing what they do, but the Rangers might be MLB's best organization with money to spend. They're awesome now and they'll probably be awesome for a while.
Team strengths
Everything. If I had to make a list of the 2011 Rangers' team strengths, that list would include everything. The Rangers can hit really well. They can field really well. They can run really well. Their starting pitching is good. Their bullpen is good. There was a time earlier in the year when the Rangers' bullpen was bad, but then it was fixed, so now it is good. The coaching staff seems fine, according to my elegant formula of "Is The Team In The World Series? (Y/N)"
Team weaknesses
Nothing. This is just the opposite of what's above. The Rangers do have a weakness if you have access to a time machine and travel to the first half of the season. If you go back even further than that, they have way more.
Best players
The 2011 Rangers have a number of good players - it's hard to get this far without having a number of good players - but the best among them are Ian Kinsler, Adrian Beltre, Mike Napoli, C.J. Wilson, Josh Hamilton, and Elvis Andrus. You'll hear a lot about Nelson Cruz, because Nelson Cruz is quite good and he's had an impossible October, but he's not quite as good as he's looked lately, and even just typing the word "hamstring" causes him to feel pain in his hamstring. Hamstring hamstring hamstring! If you guys want to see the Cardinals win, you should probably type the word "hamstring" a lot. Kinsler and Beltre might be the best of the best, and they're kind of quietly awesome, because they make a significant part of their contribution in the field. But they're also not quietly awesome because they can hit too.
Familiar players
Hey look, it's backup outfielder Endy Chavez! You Cardinals fans surely remember Chavez for that catch he made that ended up not really making a difference. The Rangers have and like to use Darren Oliver, too, and I'm going to assume that Oliver was a Cardinal at some point.
Michael Young
It's important to have an understanding of Michael Young. Michael Young is probably the most annoying thing about the Rangers. Here's what Michael Young is: a pretty good hitter. But he's the guy on this team of whom people choose to make much more than they should. Every team has one, and Young is that guy on the Rangers. He's a leader, because he's old. He's a true professional, even though he bitched and complained the two times the Rangers asked him to change positions. He's a real, red-blooded Texan and Ranger, even though he came up with a team in Canada(!). And he looks like a douche. It's really hard to be critical of Michael Young because he throws it in your face with a hit to the opposite field once or twice a game, but he's the most overrated player on the roster, and one of the more overrated players in the game. By some fans, and by most media.
Managerial style
Ron Washington is really demonstrative and animated in the dugout, and he's a hell of a lot of fun to listen to talk, but he doesn't do much out of the ordinary when it comes to in-game management. Maybe his most distinguishing feature is that he loves to tell Elvis Andrus to bunt. He might tell Andrus to bunt at any time in any game. He probably just told Andrus to bunt right now.
Phone: /rings
Andrus: Hello?
Washington: Are you bunting?
I don't really know where else to put this, but here are two people on the Rangers who badly need to keep their hats on.
And this one is just the cutest:
This isn't a complete guide to the Rangers, but you'll notice that nowhere did I state that it would be a complete guide. I just said that it would be a guide, and hopefully now you're feeling better informed. Here's to a long and compelling World Series, and in closing, know this: win or lose, the Rangers will probably be back before the Cardinals are.

Here is a look at how the Patriots' first-year players performed in the team's Week 12 win over the Eagles.
OT Nate Solder (first round, 17th overall) — Solder again played a critical role for the offense and showed his versatility. He played in 19 snaps as an extra tight end, according to ESPN Boston, and played 18 of those in the first half. He spent the second half at right tackle for Sebastian Vollmer and could return to the starting role this weekend if Vollmer can't go.
RB Shane Vereen (2, 56) — With a big lead, Vereen was able to get some carries, finishing with seven rushes for 18 yards and a long of eight. He continues to flash his speed. Vereen also was back for kickoff returns but didn't return any.
RB Stevan Ridley (3, 72) — Ridley has not been effective running the football since his early success. He had four rushes for four yards in the win, with a long of six yards.
OT Marcus Cannon (5, 138) — Cannon got an opportunity late in the game to play tackle, as the Patriots had the game in hand.
DB Sterling Moore (undrafted) — Moore played in 64 of the 73 defensive snaps in the win, mostly at safety, and played some cornerback late in the game. Moore finished with two tackles.
Notes — QB Ryan Mallett (3, 73) was inactive. ... LB Jeff Tarpinian (undrafted) was placed on injured reserve last week. ... LS Danny Aiken (undrafted) was perfect on snaps.

LOS ANGELES (AP) Ś Perhaps atoning for past sins, Hollywood named the brutal, unshrinking historical drama ō12 Years a Slaveö best picture at the 86th annual Academy Awards.
Steve McQueenÆs slavery odyssey, based on Solomon NorthupÆs 1853 memoir, has been hailed as a landmark corrective to the movie industryÆs long omission of slavery stories, following years of whiter tales like 1940 best-picture winner ōGone With the Wind.ö
The British director dedicated the honor to those past sufferers of slavery and ōthe 21 million who still endure slavery today.ö
ōEveryone deserves not just to survive, but to live,ö said McQueen, who promptly bounced into the arms of his cast. ōThis is the most important legacy of Solomon Northup.ö
A year after celebrating Ben AffleckÆs ōArgoö over Steven SpielbergÆs ōLincoln,ö the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences opted this time for stark realism over more plainly entertaining candidates like the 3-D space marvel ōGravityö and the starry 1970s caper ōAmerican Hustle.ö
Those two films came in as the leading nominee getters. David O. RussellÆs ōAmerican Hustleö went home empty-handed, but ōGravityö triumphed as the nightÆs top award-winner. Cleaning up in technical categories like cinematography and visual effects, it earned seven Oscars including best director for Alfonso Cuaron. The Mexican filmmaker is the categoryÆs first Latino winner.
ōIt was a transformative experience,ö said Cuaron, who spent some five years making the film and developing its visual effects. ōFor a lot of people, that transformation was wisdom. For me, it was the color of my hair.ö To his star Sandra Bullock, the sole person on screen for much of the lost-in-space drama, he said: ōSandra, you are æGravity.Æö
But history belonged to ō12 Years a Slave,ö a modestly budgeted drama produced by Brad PittÆs production company, Plan B, that has made $50 million worldwide Ś a far cry from the more than $700 million ōGravityö has hauled in. It marks the first time a film directed by a black filmmaker has won best picture.
Host Ellen DeGeneres, in a nimble second stint that seemed designed to be an antidote to the crude humor of Seth MacFarlane last year, summarized the academyÆs options in her opening monologue: ōPossibility number one: Æ12 Years a SlaveÆ wins best picture. Possibility number two: YouÆre all racists.ö
DeGeneres presided over a smooth if safe ceremony, punctuated by politics, pizza and photo-bombing. Freely circulating in the crowd, she had pizza delivered, appealing to Harvey Weinstein to pitch in, and gathered stars to snap a selfie she hoped would be a record-setter on Twitter (It was: Long before midnight, the photo had been retweeted more than 2 million times). One participant, Meryl Streep, giddily exclaimed: ōIÆve never tweeted before!ö
But in celebrating a movie year roundly called an exceptional one, the Oscars fittingly spread the awards around. The starved stars of the Texas AIDS drama ōDallas Buyers Clubö were feted: Matthew McConaughey for best actor and Jared Leto for best supporting actor.
McConaugheyÆs award capped a startling career turnaround, a conscious redirection by the actor to tack away from the romantic comedies he regularly starred in, and move toward more challenging films. He said heÆs always chasing a better version of himself, his ōheroö: ōEvery day, every week, every month of my life, my heroÆs always 10 years away.ö
ōIt sort of feels like a culmination,ö he said backstage.
Leto passed around his Oscar to members of the press backstage, urging them to ōfondleö it. The long-haired actor, who has devoted himself in recent years to his rock band 30 Seconds to Mars, gravely vowed: ōI will revel tonight.ö
Cate Blanchett took best actress for her fallen socialite in Woody AllenÆs ōBlue Jasmine,ö her second Oscar. Accepting the award, she challenged Hollywood not to think of films starring women as ōniche experiencesö: ōThe world is round, people!ö she said to hearty applause.
Draped in Nairobi blue, Lupita NyongÆo Ś the Cinderella of the awards season Ś won best supporting actress for her indelible impression as the tortured slave Patsey. ItÆs the feature film debut for the 31-year-old actress.
ōIt doesnÆt escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone elseÆs, and so I want to salute the spirit of Patsy for her guidance,ö said NyongÆo. She also thanked director Steve McQueen: ōIÆm certain that the dead are standing about you and they are watching and they are grateful, and so am I.ö
Though the ceremony lacked a big opening number, it had a steady musical beat to it. To a standing ovation, Bono and U2 performed an acoustic version of ōOrdinary Love,ö their Oscar-nominated song from ōMandela: Long Walk to Freedom,ö a tune penned in tribute to the late South African leader Nelson Mandela. Singing his nominated ōHappyö from ōDespicable Me 2,ö Pharrell Williams had Streep and Leonardo DiCaprio dancing in the aisles.
Pink was cheered for her rendition of ōSomewhere Over the Rainbow,ö part of a 75th anniversary tribute to ōThe Wizard of Oz.ö And Bette Midler sang Ś what else? Ś ōWind Beneath My Wingö for the in memoriam segment Ś an especially heartfelt one, considering the deaths of Philip Seymour Hoffman, Harold Ramis, James Gandolfini and others.
Best documentary went to the crowd-pleasing backup singer ode ō20 Feet From Stardom.ö One of its stars, Darlene Love, accepted the award singing the gospel tune ōHis Eye Is on the Sparrowö: ōI sing because IÆm happy/ I sing because IÆm free.ö
DisneyÆs global hit ōFrozenö won best animated film, marking Ś somewhat remarkably Ś the studioÆs first win in the 14 years of the best animated feature category. (Pixar, which Disney owns, has regularly dominated.) With a box-office that recently passed $1 billion globally, the film was sure to be the biggest hit to take home an Oscar on Sunday. The filmÆs ōLet It Goö won best original song.
ōWeÆre all just trying to make films that touch people,ö said co-director Chris Buck backstage. ōOnce in a while, you get lucky.ö
Though the Oscar ceremony is usually a glitzy bubble separate from real-world happenings, international events were immediately referenced. In his acceptance speech, Leto addressed people in Ukraine and Venezuela.
ōWe are here and as you struggle to make your dreams happen, to live the impossible, weÆre thinking of you,ö said Leto.
Russian state-owned broadcaster Channel One Russia said it would not broadcast the Oscars live because of the necessity for news coverage of RussiaÆs invasion of UkraineÆs Crimea peninsula. It will instead transmit the Oscars early Tuesday morning, local time.
Venezuelan protesters, via social media, urged Oscar winners to bring attention to their plight. Anti-government protests have roiled the country in recent weeks.
ItalyÆs ōThe Great Beautyö won the Oscar for best foreign language film. In accepting the award for his rumination on life and RomeÆs decadence, director Paolo Sorrentino thanked his heroes, including Federico Fellini, Martin Scorsese and soccer star Diego Maradona.
In her opening, DeGeneres gently mocked HollywoodÆs insularity, referring to the headlines that have swamped the Los Angeles area lately with a slightly less serious news event.
ōIt has been raining,ö said DeGeneres. ōWeÆre fine. Thank you for your prayers.ö
ABC, which aired the ceremony, hoped the drama of the best-picture race would be enough to entice viewers. The show last year drew an audience of 40.3 million, up from 39.3 million the year before when the silent-film ode ōThe Artistö won best picture.
There was a sense of deja vu Saturday. Just as she hit the red carpet, Jennifer Lawrence briefly collapsed in a heap of laughter, just as she tripped ascending the stairs last year to accept best actress for ōSilver Linings Playbook.ö
ōIf you win tonight,ö said DeGeneres, ōI think we should bring you the Oscar.ö

text: If you aren't afraid of the dark, maybe you should try playing Grimind by Paweł Mogiła and see if that changes. Grimind is a 2D platformer that uses streamlined controls to help you navigate the levels. It also uses physics to affect the environment. You can pick up and throw items to modify the environment and help you maneuver around, which you often must do to solve logic puzzles as you progress. Once you get the hang of climbing and moving objects around you will encounter the game's intense horror element. The music and lighting drastically change and all of a sudden you will be on a mad dash to avoid being caught by what look to be demons. They will chase you relentlessly until they catch and kill you, or until you manage to escape them. Grimind manages to keep you in suspense and fearful of what could be lurking just outside of view. What will you make of the machines and puzzles? Pawel has done a great job with using light, or lack thereof, to increase the suspense this game brings to the table. Sometimes the music will change and the lighting will dim, but nothing happens. This causes you to freeze in fear for a moment while you anxiously survey the scene looking for threats. Grimind flows like any great platformer does, as you can traverse the environment in many different ways. You are able to grab items and also environmental pieces, which makes it more interesting and gives you many different ways to pass through any given area. In Grimind, you may be tempted to relax and take in the dark scenery, and you can, but you will always need to keep a close watch out for the horrors that are after you. You're never safe. Features: Dynamic gameplay combined with a frightening experience Physics based gameplay – It gives you the possibility to do whatever you want. Every single dynamic object can be dragged, carried or thrown which gives you enormous freedom. Narration – While playing, the character is talking, telling the player what he feels, if he's scared, or what he thinks about the current situation. Challenge! – Grimind isn't an easy game, so you can forget about holding just one key and passing through the levels. Besides dexterity and input skills, there is also a large number of logic puzzles to solve. Your brain will be tested and you'll not get bored. If you like platformers and also enjoy a good suspense game then you should definitely head over to Steam Greenlight and give a thumbs up for Grimind. Share to support indie games! Tweet Lori Great game, great atmosphere, the controls for the game are a bit wonky and should of had the option to at least change them (should the author choose)..maybe in a patch or update? great game though! http://greenlitgaming.com Alex Control customization is always a good thing, I think everyone can agree with that! I'll be sure to pass that feedback along to the developer rhesufsdo graphics and ambient are great, controls are the worst I've ever seen

Voices: Spirit of Empowerment: A Family Gives Back
Related Article
by Sue Friedman
Our Spirit of Empowerment Awards shine the light on people who make a difference for our community. Dara and Molly Marias and Myron Caplan received the award for creating the Brenda L. Caplan Memorial Scholarship Fund and The Butterfly Project. Below are excerpts from Dara's acceptance speech.
On behalf of our family, we are overwhelmed. We already received the most special gift from FORCE, a scholarship fund in my mom's name. I would like to share how FORCE has impacted our lives and what this project has meant to our family.
Like so many in this room, our family's lives have been irretrievably affected by hereditary cancer. I am BRCA1-positive. My mother, Brenda, had both breast and ovarian cancer. Her half-sister died in her 30s of breast cancer. My grandmother had bilateral breast cancer. Even my non-biological aunt is BRCA2-positive. Hereditary cancer–or the risk of it–is everywhere we look in our family.
With each generation the options become exponentially better. When my mother was diagnosed, no one suggested genetic testing despite her age and family history. Had she been tested and had her ovaries removed, maybe her outcome could have been different. We now have treatments specifically tailored to the genetic make-up of a tumor. We have researchers who seek to understand our unique population from a treatment and prevention perspective. With these advances, the most influential generational change relates to the creation of FORCE. Through FORCE, women and men find support, friendship, inspiration and knowledge. FORCE gives us opportunities to acquire information and find compassion and identity. FORCE is at the forefront of leadership on issues which affect the rights of our community.
We all have very individual and personal reasons for attending this conference. Yet, we share one fundamental unifying belief. None of us views ourselves as victims. Whether we have cancer or a genetic predisposition, whether we care for or treat someone with hereditary cancer, we are all empowered. We cannot control our genes, but we can control how we respond to the hand life has dealt us. Instead of victims, we are people committed to helping each other and the generations to come.
This desire to give back to the organization that helped me so much led to the creation of The Butterfly Project. Molly's idea to help people affected by hereditary cancer grew into a namesake memorial fund for my mom to provide support to FORCE members who could not otherwise afford this conference.
Finally, for those of you who are somewhat new to FORCE, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. When you joined FORCE, you took your place in a chain of people. Right now you may have one hand extended forward holding on to the hands of those who have walked this road before you…those people will hold your hand tight. They will keep you steady and help you navigate the winding road over the mountains that seem so large. One day before you know it, you will cross those mountains and reach a beautiful valley. And when you arrive, your other arm will automatically reach back and grab on to those behind you, who you will now help. That is how we face our risk of cancer: empowered as a community.
We thank you very much for this award and support!
Dara Marias is a BRCA1 previvor who lost her mother to breast and ovarian cancer. Dara lives in Las Vegas with her husband, Ken, and their children Molly and Adam. She serves as General Counsel and V.P. of Human Resources for WASINC International, a pilot leasing company. In her spare time, Dara advises The Giving Grizzlies, a community service club for elementary school children, and works to raise money for The Butterfly Project in support of FORCE.

The Catholic University for Independent Thinkers
After getting a start on their classes, the Spring Romers learned how to use public transportation to get into Rome on their own. Despite light rain, they competed in a scavenger hunt organized by the Rome Assistants. After meeting up as a group at St. John Lateran, teams raced through Rome, locating as many important monuments, historic streets, and interesting people as they could.
The day ended at a local restaurant on the shore of Lago Albano. The students enjoyed a dinner of local fare that included porchetta (roasted pork—a local specialty from the Castelli Romani), fresh grilled vegetables, buffalo mozzarella, brick oven pizza, and, of course, tiramisu.

Red Suits You-------
From the runway to the street to the closets of sports stars, the color red has found its way onto the current sartorial playlist, especially—and excitingly—across men's suiting.
"Red has great energy and signifies a decadence other colors can't," Barneys New York's general merchandise manager and executive vice president Tom Kalenderian told Style.com. "Remember Diana Vreeland's famous red chinoiserie walls—didn't she once say, 'I want this place to look like a garden, but a garden in hell?'" After hearing Vreeland's take on the hue, who wouldn't want to wrap himself up in Haider Ackermann's ruby-toned sleeveless Spring '14 waistcoat, Roberto Cavalli's oxblood shawl-collared stunner, or Thom Browne's cherry-red generalissimo uniforms?
Just off the runway, our intrepid Tommy Ton lensed red peaked-lapel blazers from Firenze to Paris. One fellow stood out in particular, pairing his vermilion jacket with a medium-grade chambray shirt-and-tie combo underneath. And finally, at last week's ESPY Awards, a number of athletes hot-stepped it down the red carpet in matching wares: Chicago Bears' wide receiver Brandon Marshall in a Hugh Hefner-esque burgundy smoking jacket; San Francisco 49ers' quarterback Colin Kaepernick in a simple scarlet sport jacket; and the King himself, the NBA's LeBron James, in a muted carmine tux whipped up by L.A.-based tailor Waraire Boswell. As Kalenderian keenly noted, "Making a statement is the new normal."

Landeskog lifts Avalanche past Coyotes
Originally published: Feb 28, 2014 - 10:35 pm
Semyon Varlamov stopped 40 shots in his first game after playing for Russia in the Sochi Olympics, and P.A. Parenteau and Nate Guenin also scored for Colorado, which bounced back from blowing a two-goal lead in a loss to Los Angeles on Wednesday. Guenin's goal was his first in nearly two years after spending all of last season in the American Hockey League.
Shane Doan had two goals and Thomas Greiss had 29 saves for Phoenix, which lost 3-2 in a shootout at Winnipeg on Thursday night is 0-2-1 in its last three games to hurt its playoff chances in the season's final six weeks.
The Avalanche are comfortably in the playoff picture, but are chasing Chicago and St. Louis in the Central Division. With 22 games remaining, they trailed the Blackhawks by three but they have a game in hand on Chicago, which sits second in the division.
The Coyotes had a chance to pull this one out before Colorado broke it open early in the third.
Guenin's first goal since March 19, 2012, came when he beat Greiss from the top of the right circle 48 seconds into the third period to give Colorado a 2-1 lead.
Stastny scored on Nathan MacKinnon's rebound at 6:12 of the third to make it 3-1.
Doan's second goal of the game at 13:58 of the third made cut it to one, but Landeskog restored the two-goal advantage with his 19th nearly three minutes later.
The teams traded power-play goals in the first period. Doan gave the Coyotes a 1-0 lead with his 16th goal at 12:47, and Parenteau answered 2:51 later with his 12th to tie it.
The teams had several scoring chances in the second period, but each goalie made 10 saves.
NOTES: Nathan MacKinnon had two assists to extend his point streak to 10 games, the longest active run in the NHL. ... Avalanche D Erik Johnson was out of the lineup to serve the second of his two-game suspension for his slash on New York Islanders C Frans Nielsen on Feb. 8. ... Coyotes D Oliver Ekman-Larsson's assist on the first goal gave him a career high for a single season with 22. ...

I-War broke group in the space combat genre by bringing Newtonian physics into the fold. This is no skinned-over WWII dogfight in space -- oh, no. Mass and inertia rule the day in a dreadnought. This gives I-War a little higher learning curve than Wing Commander or Elite, but it pays off.
I-War offers up some of the most satisfying space combat since TIE Fighter. Engagementsread more are intricate dances of sweeping arcs and precise weapons fire. This game will test not only your piloting and reflexes, but also your sniper's instinct. There's nothing like the exhilarating satisfaction of navigating a complex trajectory to land a perfect shot on your enemy's soft underbelly.
The game has its flaws: unforgiving mission challenges, terrible voice acting in spots, and yes, flying a dreadnought takes more practice than the game seems to want to give you at first.
Once you master the physics of mass and inertia, though, you can dance through I-War's dogfights like a ballerina with a rail gun. I-War delivers a solid futuristic battle experience.

This is an exceptional flight sim. Unlike many space sims that came before it, in I-War, you're flying a larger capital ship, like a frigate, rather than a small, nimble fighter. This, along with the inclusion of a fully Newtonian-based flight model and four separate but completely necessary stations to switch between during missions makes this one of the more complex space simsread more you'll find. You definitely need a joystick with this one, and one with a hat-switch to boot.
If you're ready to take it on, though, you'll be granted one of the most satisfying space sim experiences around, with an excellent story, wonderful missions, exceptional combat, and, in my opinion, the best opening cinematic in any game, bar none.
Overall, if you have any interest in space combat, and own -- or are thinking of getting a joystick -- then NOT getting I-War would be a disservice. Heck, I own it on disk and I'm buying the GoG version. Enjoy!

My first review, ever.
But I can't let this pass without saying a word or two about this fantastic, largely unknown and underrated masterpiece.
Yes, yes, you can compare IWar to newer, shiny graphics, open-ended, sandboxed, multi-playable shipped and wathevered games and find this one a bit limited with its only playable ship, old (but still enjoyable) grahpics and mission-basedread more gamesystem (even if you actually HAVE more endings, dependingon your in-mission chioces!!!).
But don't let those elements turn you down. This is a masterpiece, bar none. If you liked space sims the like of freespace, playing a little figher or bomber in a war that is too big for you (wonderful game again!!), here you really have the feeling of the power coming from a larger ship. Without a large choice of weapons, your fligh style and ability really matters in winning a fight. Withouth the maneuvrability of a fighter, your tactical skills and sense of anticipation can really save your day.
And with the well implemented four-stations control system, you really have the control of it all.
With wonderful missions, interesting backstory, no-return ethical choices and a climax ending, the main campaign is really a gem. I never played through the entire "Defiance" add-on (I had a bug in a mession...) but it is a worthy addition and I'll for sure give it a new try.
Oh, and yes... the opening cinematic is wonderful.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville University indoor track & field team continued their winning ways for the second straight weekend, earning four individual wins once more at the Jimmy Carnes Invitational in Gainesville on Friday, Jan. 17.
"We had another good day today," said Head Coach Ron Grigg. "Wins by Shanique in the hurdles and Stormm in the pentathlon were solid performances. All three members of the distance group had personal bests in the mile today. I thought both Courtney and Shadaey had very strong days.
"We can now return to a good stretch of training before our last meet of the regular season in Birmingham."
Stormm Phillips won the most with two individual events and ultimately won the indoor pentathlon with a score of 3,479 points. She placed first in both the pentathlon shot put (10.78m) and the pentathlon long jump (5.62m), outpacing second-placed Jaymi White of Savannah State, who leapt 5.49m.
Petra Munkacsy finished sixth in the pentathlon, scoring 3,024 points. She won the pentathlon 55-meter hurdles, pacing in 8.37 seconds, just ahead of Phillips in second (8.53).
In the pentathlon high jump, Phillips finished fourth (1.54m) and Munkacsy ninth (1.39m).
Behind Phillips' winning pentathlon shot put reach of 10.78m, Munkacsy earned third (9.88m). In the pentathlon long jump, Munkacsy earned sixth (5.13m).
Phillips earned second in the 800-meter run in 2:35.79 minutes, but was the top collegiate finisher. Munkacsy placed seventh in 2:46.98.
Rounding out the individual winners, Shanique Walker won the 55-meter hurdles in 7.83 seconds, ahead of second-place finisher Tyjah Eady from Florida, who crossed in 8.09 seconds.
Shadaey Campbell earned second in the 200-meter dash in 24.79, just behind Karene King who won in 24.46. Chynna Monica Chung took 20th in 26.65.
In the long jump, Courtney Walker earned second with 5.81m, followed by Kaitlyn Taylor's fourth-place finish of 5.61m.
Courtney Walker and Shadaey Campbell took second and fourth, respectively, in the 400-meter dash, timing in 56.51 seconds and 57.10.
In the shot put, Samantha Turner earned third with 13.35m, while Kree Clark placed fifth (13.00m) and Sally Marie Futch took eighth (11.68m).
Clark earned third in the weight throw, tossing 16.17m, while Turner and Futch placed fifth and sixth, respectively.
In the mile, Svenja Meyer and Katy Solis finished back-to-back in third and fourth, respectively, as Meyer crossed in 5:07.05 minutes and Solis in 5:08.15. Caitlin Marino placed 11th in 5:21.03.
In the 800-meter run, Meyer finished sixth in 2:24.72, while Solis (2:26.01) and Marino (2:27.92) placed ninth and 10th, respectively.

Developing a Continuous Transmission
Hampton College, 1998 - $14,250This E-Team has pioneered research on a continuous transmission system that could facilitate higher power utilization efficiency in consumer engines, including next generation vehicles. By combining a flywheel and a continuous transmission, the system offers a high performance drive train that outperforms current low emission devices. This system could have major applications in high efficiency and electric vehicles, as well as other powered equipment.
The device would revolutionize drive technology and the potential markets for such a device are numerous and varied, from the target application of automobile performance enhancement to smaller motors found in consumer electronics.
The team is made up of three physics majors, one sophomore and two juniors. The NCIIA funded the team to design and construct a testing prototype for the system.

During the fall and spring semesters, graduate students carrying 9 or more credit hours may audit, without fee, one additional course with the approval of their adviser and permission of the instructor.
Graduate students carrying up to 6 credit hours and non-matriculated students may audit courses with the necessary approvals and fees. Students must obtain the approval of their adviser and permission of the instructor; non-matriculated students must obtain the permission of the instructor and the chair of the department offering the course. It is understood that auditing is permitted on a non-participatory basis. No auditing is permitted during the summer sessions.
To withdraw from a course, students must complete the appropriate form available in the Registrar's Office and at www.arcadia.edu/registrar, signifying their intention to withdraw. Refund of tuition is calculated on the basis of the date on which written notification is received in the Registrar's Office. (See the refund policy outlined below.) Withdrawal after the seventh week of classes requires written approval from the course instructor and assignment of a grade of "WP" if the student is passing and "WF" if the student is failing at the time of withdrawal. If no official notice of withdrawal is given, the student is not eligible for a refund and a grade of "F" for the course is recorded.
The "course changes – drop/add" timeline appears in semester schedules and the Academic Calendar.
The refund policy applies only to tuition charges; fees are not refundable. During the fall and spring semesters, students who formally withdraw from one or more courses within the first five weeks of classes are entitled to a refund according to the schedule listed below. Refunds are calculated on the basis of the date on which notification was received by the Registrar's Office.
Withdrawal within time periods and percent tuition paid by the student
For Summer Session I, a refund of 50 percent is allowed for withdrawal within the first week of class. For Summer II, III and workshops, the refund allowed is 50 percent before the third class meeting.
Students considering withdrawal after the seventh week of a semester are encouraged to contact the One-Stop Shop in order to obtain a detailed estimate of the financial implications of their withdrawal. This is extremely relevant when a student loan is involved.
All courses, 12 to 15 weeks, regardless of delivery modality will follow the policies that are currently in place.
7 Week Classes (Regardless of delivery modality)
1 Week Intensive Classes and Institute Course
Incompletes – Follow the current policy for all courses. (i.e. student in an accelerated course would have three weeks after the end of the semester to complete required work). Incompletes are given only in the case of a medical or personal emergency beyond the control of the student and must be approved by the appropriate dean.
Another graduate course may be substituted for a course required for a degree if, in the judgment of the department offering the degree, the student has sufficient knowledge of the required course content to fulfill degree requirements. Before allowing the substitution, an examination covering the course content may be given in order to determine the student's level of competence. No course credit is earned by passing the examination.
During the fall and spring semesters, the normal load for full-time, non-cohort, students is 9 to 12 credit hours per semester. For students who are employed full-time, it is recommended that students enroll in no more than 6 credits per semester. The maximum course load for the summer sessions is 6 credit hours for Summer Sessions I and II, and 3 credit hours for Summer Session III. Students participating in a summer workshop may not schedule any other course concurrently.
Numbers from the 500 to 800 levels designate graduate courses. Certain upper-level undergraduate courses numbered 400 are approved by the Graduate Academic Programs Committee for graduate credit. If a 400-level course not approved for graduate credit would enhance the student's professional preparation or current or anticipated teaching assignments, the student must present a written request to have the course accepted for the master's degree. The request must be approved by the student's adviser and sent to the Dean of the College of Graduate Studies.
Non-matriculated students may enroll in courses as Special Status students. Up to 9 graduate credits earned as a Special Status student can be accepted toward a degree, if the courses are appropriate for the program to which the student later applies. It is wise for Special Status students who are interested in pursuing a degree program to apply promptly, before accumulating inappropriate courses. Enrollment as a Special Status student does not ensure admission to a degree program. Special Status application forms are available on MyArcadia (http://my.arcadia.edu) and in the College of Graduate Studies, and the Registrar's Office. A registration hold will be placed on anyone who has earned 12 graduate credits and has not been accepted to the College of Graduate Studies.
Special status is not permitted in the following: doctoral programs in Education and Physical Therapy, and master's programs in Business Administration, Forensic Science, Genetic Counseling, International Peace and Conflict Resolution and Medical Science (Physician Assistant).
Arcadia University undergraduate students who are within a few credits of meeting the requirements for the bachelor's degree may, with the permission of the department chair, faculty adviser and Dean of Graduate Studies, enroll in a limited number of graduate courses (500-level courses). Credit may be awarded either toward the bachelor's or the master's degree, but not both.

Tears, hugging and outrage describe an emotional night as students and their families of the New Leadership Charter School learned it will be closing its doors at the end of the academic school year.
"I'm really disturbed that this is happening right now," said parent Kimberly Brouillard.
Her daughter Kayla is graduating from the school next year and said she is upset she has to find a new school.
"I'm shocked and aggravated because if it does close down, I have to go find a new school next year," said Brouillard.
It was a packed house Wednesday as the New Leadership Charter School community listened to officials explain their decision to close the school.
The chairman of New Leadership's board of directors, Peter Daboul, decided not to try and renew the school's charter after the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education recommended last month closing New Leadership Charter.
"We have been underfunded to the point of occurring a half million dollar debt which restricted hiring teachers, buying equipment and finishing the facility," said Daboul.
On Thursday, parent Betty Jack found out she will need to send her two kids to another school.
"To just decide without asking out opinion was very unfair," exclaimed Jack.
The school says over the past six weeks they've looked for options to stay open but couldn't find one.
"This was a way for us to control the situation," explained Daboul.
Now 500 students will need to go somewhere else to learn and dozens of teachers will need to find other work.
Michael Nai is a teacher at the New Leadership Charter School. He says he doesn't want to go anywhere else.
"I want to stay here because of the way they kids treat me. I like the way the kids learn from me and I realize I learn from them. The disappointment is that I won't be able to learn from this group of kids anymore," said Nai.
Representatives from Springfield Public Schools attended Wednesday's meeting. They will be helping students make the transition into to their schools if they choose.

Planets Live in Houses will release a debut E.P. at 8 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 25, at the Love the Captive loft, 1830 Van Ness Ave.
Guitarist Mike Gibson says it started out as a solo project.
"I moved to Santa Cruz for school and I didn't have any friends, so I locked myself in my room and started writing songs with the intention of starting a solo project. I would use my looper pedal and write both guitars and bass parts," he says.
Those songs became the impetus for a creative collaboration with several local musicians, including electronic producer singer Sahab. That collaboration in turn, became the band.
The Bee talked with Gibson to find out more. (Read an extended interview at fresnobeehive.com)
Start with the basics. Who does what in the band?
Brian Bakalian plays drums, Bobby Griffiths plays bass, John Tucker plays guitar and I play guitar as well. We don't really have a rhythm or lead distinction between the guitars. We have more of a "whatever part you wrote is the part you play" kinda thing.
I'm always interested in band names. Tell me about yours. Is it 'live,' like it's where the planets reside, or 'live' as in not dead?
I never anticipated the confusion you just expressed, but you are definitely not the first person to wonder that. It's 'live' as in where the planets reside. It came from an old astrology book Brian's grandfather left him when he passed away. It was the name of a chapter describing the different houses planets can inhabit and the effects those houses have throughout the year.
On that note, I'd describe the band as instrumental, progressive rock with hints of math rock. It's jazzier than some similar stuff I've heard. How am I doing?
I love math rock to death, but I made a conscious decision to stray away from the overly technical super mathy stuff because I didn't want to get labeled a "math rock band." There are expectations that go along with being a band that embraces a genre, especially a fringe genre like math rock. If I want to write a simple three chord, verse-chorus-verse-chorus kind of song, I don't want to have to wonder if our math-rock fans are going to be disappointed and write us off. So I don't think we fit into one genre very neatly. But, we all love really spacey music, and since all four of us play guitar, we are definitely riff oriented. So your description was pretty dead on. I think we are progressive, dynamic, a little jazzy (thanks mostly to Brian) and when we have mathy moments, it's because they seemed called for.

The Seated View: Sensitive To The D-Word
When you mention the D-word (discrimination) in connection with people with disabilities you get the funniest reactions. People sort of wince, they cringe, they even get angry and \ question your conclusions. It's as if they have accepted the concept of discrimination against other groups like racial minorities, women and aboriginal people, but there's a huge stumbling block when presented with the concept related to disability.

Years ago, while sitting in a large jury pool waiting room in a San Francisco courthouse, a man in a wheelchair next to me was approached by a staff member and told that he was dismissed, that he had fulfilled his obligations.
He was (rightly so) quite upset, and demanded to know why he was being dismissed. The staff member informed him that any amount of jury duty would be beyond his physical abilities. I was so proud of him when he shot back, in a loud voice so that everyone in the room could hear, that he and only he was able to determine what his physical abilities were.
Later that night I was so upset by what I had witnessed, that I could barely sleep. The next morning, as soon as offices opened, I contacted this courthouse and submitted a written complaint, for the record.

ANSTED (WVVA) - A pair have been arrested on drug trafficking charges involving the prescription drug roxycodone.
36-year-old James Pack II of Ansted and 29-year-old Marion Cheney II of Palm Bay, Fla., were arrested on Friday.
Fayette County Sheriff Steve Kessler says that the Central West Virginia drug task force made multiple undercover purchases from a home in Ansted.
They were then granted a search warrant for that residence where they found a small quantity of roxycodone pills and $3,000 in cash.
Pack is being charged with two counts of delivery of a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance, possession with intent to delivery and conspiracy.
Cheney is being charged with conspiracy and transportation of a controlled substance into West Virginia.
Neither have a bond at this time.

SHAW to carry NHL Centre Ice Package
This is to try to convince Shaw Cable to start carrying the centre ice package. They are the only ones of the major cable and satellite providers in Canada not to carry it and for anyone who lives in a building where satellite isn't an option they are the only option in many parts of Canada. For a country that praises hockey above all else it seems crazy that there are parts of the country where you can't view the games you want to see.

Addi Turbo needles are amazing! So smooth, the stitches just glide along. They really are the Mercedes Benz of knitting needles. The only time I don't use them is when I don't have a size that is in the starter set, and I can't wait to order them online. I plan on buying the completer set. Any other needles are just like rubbing two sticks together now! I have been spoiled.

Creighton players honored
OMAHA, Neb. -- Creighton Volleyball's Megan Bober and Kelli Browning have
been named Honorable-Mention All-Americans by the American Volleyball
Coaches Association. This marks the first time that Creighton has had two
women pick up All-America honors in the same season.
Creighton's previous All-America honorees include Kelly Goc (2007), Jessica
Houts (2008) and Bober (2010), who each earned honorable-mention accolades
as well. Bober is the first player in program history to earn All-America
honors twice.
A senior from Murdock, Neb., Bober was named MVC Player of the Year after
averaging 9.69 assists, 2.99 digs, 1.93 kills and 1.00 blocks per set. She
owned six triple-doubles and set a school-record with 24 double-doubles on
the fall. Bober is the nation's only player to average at least 9.6 assists,
2.9 digs and 1.00 blocks per set this season, and she wraps up her career
ranked first in matches played (128), matches started (128), consecutive
matches started (128) and sets played (480), second in assists (4,359) and
block assists (380), fourth in total blocks (422), fifth in assists per set
(9.08), sixth in aces (86), seventh in hitting percentage (.260) and points
(1151.0) and eighth in both digs (1,123) and block solos (42).
Browning was named MVC Defensive Player of the Year and First Team All-MVC
after averaging 2.82 kills and 1.65 blocks per set. Her 189 block assists
established an MVC single-season record, and her 204 total blocks and .370
hitting percentage also set Creighton single-season marks. The sophomore
middle blocker from Waukesha, Wis., had five different matches of 10 or more
blocks, and tied a league mark with 15 block assists on Sept. 8 vs. Tulsa.
She will enter 2013 as Creighton's all-time leader in career hitting
percentage (.340) and blocks per set (1.35).
Creighton wrapped up its best season in program history on December 1st,
finishing 29-4. The Bluejays won their first MVC regular-season and
tournament titles in program history, while also earning its first national
ranking in program history.
