Wellwood pursues a top 6 role
Crucial game for the Canucks against the Flames tonight. If they lose in regulation the Northwest Division crown is lost.
Tip to the guys at CDC for finding this pic. Woody looks like he's going to drool all over his shirt. Mmmm, spaghetti...meatballs... Kesler looks like he's either giving him a "poor bastard" look or a "don't even fucking think about it, stick to your greens" look!
Canucks' Unemployment Line living up to its name
So, I was listening to the Rick Ball show this afternoon (podcast download) and there was a conversation about theKyle (Chubby) Wellwood, Taylor (Facebook) Pyatt and Steve (Hands of Stone) Bernier...
Kyle Wellwood, the pudgy reclamation project who's a former Toronto Maple Leaf like Sundin, is skating well and distributing the puck on the third line.
Viggy is maddening at times. After watching the trio of games from this past weekend, its apparent that Burrows doesn't really work well with the twins. This move reminded me of the efforts to...
Wellwood and O'Brien will play against the Coyotes
Sundin on the road trip and Wellwood may sit out....again.

New Jersey casino regulators say Internet gambling grew at a faster rate in March, its fourth full month as a legal option in the state.
But it wasn't enough to keep Atlantic City's casinos from seeing their overall gambling income decline again.
The state Division of Gaming Enforcement announced Monday that online gambling brought in $11.9 million in March, up 15 percent from February.
The state's 11 brick-and-mortar casinos won $221 million during that time period. That's down 7 percent from March 2013, when there were 12 casinos in the city.
Correction: An earlier version of this article's headline incorrectly stated 'February' instead of 'March.'

We've created a new way for you to personalize your chocolate bar, just in time for Mother's Day! Over the past couple of weeks we have created a bunch of new additions to our website, all of which aim towards you creating the perfect custom chocolate bar. We revamped our entire checkout system and created a 'name your bar feature' (check out the previous post to read about the top five names of the past couple of weeks.) We weren't satisfied with just adding that, however.
Chocomize is extremely popular for birthday chocolate bars and other chocolate gifts. We had gotten a lot of requests from you guys to create an option where you could write a personalized message. We always try to respond as quickly as possible to feedback we get from customers, and we've now added the 'personalized greeting card' option that is available at checkout.
Once you pick and design your perfect custom candy bar, there is an option in our checkout to create you very own greeting card. Write your very own message and send it to the person receiving your personalized chocolate bar!
If you are giving a gift for Mother's Day, make sure you get credit (my mom will probably get a hand written note…sorry to ruin the surprise mom) and design yourself a personalized greeting card.

HMV voucher offer from Southend nightclub went down well
9:40pm Sunday 27th January 2013 in Local News
REVELLERS left disgruntled with unusable HMV gift vouchers were given a boost this weekend when a nightclub offered discounts to those with the vouchers.
Mayhem nightclub, in Warrior Sqaure, Southend, accepted gift cards as entry payment on Friday and Saturday - with plenty of punters taking advantage of the deal.
The offer stood even though the ailing music chain backtracked last week and allowed thousands of disappointed customers the chance to use the cards instore.
Gav Lloyd, marketing manager at the club, said: "When HMV announced it wasn't going to take the cards it was like blind robbery as they had taken the money but people weren't able to use the product.
"On our Twitter and Facebook feeds we found that a lot of our customers were upset and angry that the cards were deemed worthless we thought it would be nice to make them this offer.
"Since then HMV has backtracked and will be accepting the cards, but our offer stayed open."

However Baltimore's plain-spoken police commissioner is remembered, when he departs on the first day of August, he will leave his successor a challenging target.
The number 200.
That is the standard by which Frederick H. Bealefeld III's successor will be measured. Under his watch, Baltimore recorded 196 homicides in 2011, breaking a symbolic barrier that eluded nine previous chiefs, all the way back to 1977.
Fairly or unfairly, the mayor and commissioner — along with the city as a whole — have been judged and have judged themselves on the annual body count. It is always a horrific-looking number, but in actuality a tiny percentage of crime.
City leaders and criminal justice experts fear that a new leader, even one promising to continue Bealefeld's strategies, will halt the momentum of near across-the-board crime decreases while imprinting his or her own ideological stamp on the force.
"The benchmark is now 200," said Bert F. Shirey, a retired deputy commissioner of the Baltimore Police Department with 37 years of experience. "The public and people who are paying the bills see this number as the bottom line. The new person coming in certainly doesn't want the number to go back up again."
Speaking about overall crime levels, City Councilman William H. Cole IV, said, "I think the bar is set. It's up to the applicants to understand that we now know where our new low can be as far as the crime rate goes, and we want to push below that."
On Friday, a day after announcing his retirement, Bealefeld used statistics as he spoke about his successes: "Minus seven, minus 17." Such tallies — 64 killings through April 4, compared to 71 in the same period last year, and 112 non-fatal shootings, compared to 129 last year — remain the barometer of city crime. They will be tough for Bealefeld's successor to match, or beat, whether he or she rises up from the ranks or is plucked from someplace else.
Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake plans a national search to replace Bealefeld as head of the 3,100-member police force, which has been under his stewardship for the past five years.
The unique challenge, according to Baltimore leaders, even those critical of the commissioner's tenure, is advancing a plan that has for the first time in decades led to a sustained drop in crime.
"It's going to be incumbent on the next person to continue that direction," said Chuck Wexler, executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum, a law enforcement think tank in Washington that has helped Los Angeles and Chicago find chiefs.
"Some new chiefs come in and dismantle everything that a successful person has done," Wexler said, "but that would be stupid."
Still, he urged the mayor and community leaders to think carefully about "where the department is and where it needs to go. … What are the issues facing Baltimore in 2012? They might not be the same issues that faced Fred Bealefeld in 2007."
Bealefeld lasted longer than is typical of most big-city police chiefs, surviving a change at the top of City Hall, where consecutive mayors endorsed and embraced his crime plan.
Yearly declines in homicides, shootings, assaults and other crimes allowed leaders to proudly proclaim a notoriously dangerous city safer — even if many residents said their experiences didn't match the numbers. Those declines shielded Bealefeld from the impact of other problems in the department.
He survived a steady stream of misconduct and corruption cases that sent officers to federal and state prison, a fatal "friendly-fire" shooting of an officer, and numerous shake-ups in command. There were also revelations that many reported rapes were being dismissed by detectives who wrote them up as "unfounded," prompting an overhaul of the sex offense unit.
To the public, scandals come and go with the headlines, but safety remains a primary concern, local leaders say. In March, Bealefeld's new pick to lead Internal Affairs stood in front of residents in Belair-Edison, ready to field questions just as another misconduct scandal was making news.
Nobody asked a single question of Grayling Williams, who was lured to Baltimore from the federal government to restore credibility in officer discipline. Instead, residents pestered patrol officers about a fight at a neighborhood school.
"You go to a community meeting and crime is the topic," said Cole. "They want to know, from the Police Department, what are they doing to stop whatever is going on and to make their day safer. At the end of the day, that's what it all boils down to."
What has helped Bealefeld slide through crises, Cole said, was his intolerance of bad behavior. For example, he fired a cop who berated and pushed a teenage skateboarder at the Inner Harbor, over the objections of his command staff.

Free-agent guard Ray Allen was drawing interest from a handful of teams in free agency but had his choices seemingly limited to returning to the Boston Celtics or moving on to South Beach to play for the NBA champion Miami Heat. Allen was reportedly torn on the decision between the two teams, but late Friday night decided to make the movie to Miami.
With Allen leaving Boston, the Celtics are left wondering where they have to go from there, Jeff Clark of CelticsBlog explains:
As others have pointed out, Ray leaving hurts, but it also makes it a lot easier to fill out our bench. In a sense, Terry replaces Ray Allen and now we'll have the money to bring back the rest of the bench. It also increases the odds that we'll overpay for Jeff Green but we'll just have to wait until we see the final numbers on that before we judge. Also, this might open the door for Danny Ainge to get creative and swing some kind of trade.
Allen's defection to Miami has of course caused many Celtics fans to cry out about betrayal and loyalty, but the problem there is that Boston as a franchise hasn't shown much loyalty to Allen either. Allen has been dangled at the trade deadline the past two seasons as Ian Thomsen of SI.com points out.
There is nothing hypocritical about Allen's decision to switch sides in the East's best rivalry. Allen has spent the last several midseason trading deadlines dealing with rumors that Boston would move him, and last March he was told that he had been sent to Memphis before the trade was rescinded.

Education program assistant offers guidance — and much more
By Wanda Praamsma, Communications Officer
On the Queen's U Compliments Facebook page – a page dedicated to anonymously complimenting others in the community – Vicky Andrews is described as a blessing from above and an amazing soul who has made the lives of many concurrent education students much easier and much better. The post received more than 200 "likes" and in one comment, someone wrote "#VickyAndrews4QueensPrincipal."
The concurrent education program assistant is clearly loved – revered, even – by the students she helps through her role as academic advisor.
"We have a symbiotic relationship," says Ms. Andrews, who has been in her position in the Faculty of Education since 2010. ""I really like working with students. There's something about this age group that is so wonderful. They're blossoming, and so intelligent and well-mannered. I admire them so much – they're starting to become adults and figuring out the world."
Ms. Andrews provides "Con Eddies" with academic guidance and support, but judging by students' acts of gratitude and appreciation, she does much more than that – she is a pillar of strength, a warm smile on a difficult day, a genuinely compassionate being who cares about them and helps them move forward in their studies and in their lives. In return, the students care about her and have let her know loud and clear that they are in her corner.
In addition to the Queen's U Compliments Facebook page, many students send her personal notes of gratitude and one created an article called Vicky Andrews Facts that includes 17 favourable, if embellished, points, including: "Approximately 45 per cent of the world's smiles originate from Vicky Andrews' office," and "Vicky Andrews has teachable subjects in unicorn taming, advanced thermonuclear physics, and rainbow production".
"The students are so amazing. They make me love my job and want to help them," she says.
Ms. Andrews says she has a unique position – she works in a relatively small faculty and can really get to know the students she sees. In her role, she talks to first-year students during frosh week, letting them know she'll be their academic advisor. During the year, she provides one-on-one advising to all "Con Eddies" (except those in their final, fifth year) – essentially, she makes sure they get what they need and know what they need to know to graduate, to make it to the end.
"These students want to be teachers so they are naturally kind and caring. They're go-getters in the best possible way," says Ms. Andrews, who has a teaching degree herself but veered into different directions within education, working in educational publishing, admissions at a private school and in the Registrar's Office at Queen's before landing in her current position.
"I really appreciate working here and it is so lovely to be able to be myself in this job."

Governor Steve Beshear announced Thursday that J.M. Smucker LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The J.M. Smucker Company, plans to retain 279-jobs and invest more than $43 million in upgrades to its Lexington facility, home of the famous Jif Peanut Butter brand.
"Jif Peanut Butter is a household name, and we're extremely proud to have such a wonderful product made right here in Kentucky," said Gov. Beshear. "This investment of $43 million in Lexington really shows the commitment to Smucker's growth and success, and is a testament to the positive relationship the company has with the Commonwealth."
Smucker is a leading marketer and manufacturer of fruit spreads, retail packaged coffee, peanut butter, shortening and oils, ice cream toppings, sweetened condensed milk, and health and natural foods beverages in North America. The company currently has 279 employees at its Jif operation in Lexington, where it plans to upgrade machinery, equipment and expand product lines to meet increased demand.
"The J.M. Smucker Company is proud to be a part of the Lexington community and we are excited to know that the investments being made at our peanut butter operations will be a major factor in the continued growth and success of our Jif brand," said Richard Smucker, CEO, The J.M. Smucker Company. "We greatly appreciate the continued support of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the city of Lexington, and are thankful for their contributions toward this critical project."
To encourage the investment in Lexington, the Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority preliminarily approved Smucker for tax incentives up to $2 million through the Kentucky Reinvestment Act (KRA). KRA is designed to assist companies that need to make significant capital investment in Kentucky facilities in order to remain competitive.
"I am excited with Smucker's plans to upgrade its machinery and equipment and expand its product lines," said Sen. Kathy Stein, of Lexington. "An increased demand for Smucker products is not only good for the company, but good for our community and our state. This investment will allow our community to continue to reap the rewards of 279 good jobs, economic growth and development. It also speaks well of our workforce that Lexington remains the home of Jif Peanut Butter. I applaud Gov. Beshear for taking the lead in retaining a good corporate neighbor."
"This is great news for our community, because it further cements the long working relationship we've had with J.M. Smucker, and it also is another feather in the cap for the company's local workforce, that has always set a high bar of excellence in the food and beverage industry," said Rep. Jesse Crenshaw, of Lexington. "I want to thank our state and local officials as well; they deserve a lot of praise for helping to make all of this possible."
"The city of Lexington is thrilled that The J.M. Smucker Company is expanding its Jif peanut butter operations in Lexington," said Lexington Vice Mayor Linda Gorton. "We love having such an important brand and operation in Lexington. We believe the Jif brand and Lexington go together like peanut butter and jelly!"
"Jif peanut butter, owned by The J.M. Smucker Company, has been an iconic brand in Lexington for many decades, and we're proud they are expanding their operations in Lexington," said Bob Quick, CCE, president and CEO of Commerce Lexington Inc. "We enjoy working with the Jif team, and are glad choosy companies chose Lexington!"

This Week in History: Israel, Holy See forge ties
12/30/2012 13:52
On December 30, 1993, Israel established full-fledged diplomatic relations with Catholic Church.

The Jerusalem Post
dubbed the event as the beginning of "a new era of understanding" between the Catholic Church and the Jewish people, following almost 2,000 years of antagonistic relations "saturated with tears and blood," as described by then-Cardinal Jospeh Aloisius Ratziger.
The agreement was signed in Jerusalem by then-deputy foreign minister Yossi Beilin and Msgr. Claudio Maria Celli, then-Vatican under-secretary for foreign affairs.
"After 2,000 years, this is a very important move forward in the dialogue between the Jewish and Christian faiths," Beilin said after the signing. "It was time for them; it was time for us."
The agreement was the result of 18 months of negotiations.
In the agreement, the Vatican agreed not to become directly involved in conflicts regarding "disputed territories and unsettled borders," while reserving the right to speak out on moral issues. The agreement also called on both sides to "declare their respective commitment to the promotion of the peaceful resolution of conflicts among States and nations, excluding violence and terror from international life."
With regard to Jerusalem, the agreement represented a slump in progress. In the past the Vatican had maintained that the city should be internationalized, however, in the course of the negotiations, Vatican spokesmen said that the bilateral committee saw all issues regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as beyond its scope. In the end, any mention of the issue of Jerusalem was omitted from the agreement.
In another clause, Israel guaranteed freedom of worship and committed itself to protect the holy places, including churches and monasteries. However, the agreement appeared to fall short of ensuring a right of sanctuary, since it only ensured protection for "proper use," of such a religious site.
In a clause seen as very important by negotiators from both sides, Israel and the Holy See agreed to fight anti-Semitism, racism, and religious intolerance.
"It is a very powerful condemnation, especially in areas where the Holocaust took place," Beilin said.
Then-US Ambassador to the Vatican Raymond Flynn said the pact opened "a new and important chapter" in the 2,000-year history of Christians and Jews often marked by "misunderstanding and even mistrust."
A few weeks later on January 10, 1994, the Nunciature (Vatican embassy) was opened in Israel, and the Israeli embassy was opened in Rome. Andrea Cordero Lanza di Montezemolo, who had previously served as the Apostolic Delegate to Jerusalem and Palestine, was appointed as the first Apostolic Nuncio to Israel, and Shmuel Hadas was later appointed as Israel's first ambassador to the Holy See.
Several issues remained unresolved, including the legal state of the Church and its institutions in Israel, as well economic matters. After three more years of negotiations, a further agreement called the Agreement between the State of Israel and the Holy See was signed in Jerusalem on November 1997. This accord defined the status of the Catholic Church in Israel and its hierarchy under Israeli law. It also marked the first legal recognition of the Catholic Church by any government in the Holy Land.
A year later, the Vatican issued an apology for the Catholic failure to do more for the Jewish people during the Holocaust, which experts described as an important step in easing relations.
An additional milestone in the relationship was reached when Pope John Paul II visited Israel in March 2000. The pope visited holy sites of all three major religions, blessed Israel and expressed support for a Palestinian homeland. He visited Yad Vashem and placed a note in the Western Wall, asking for God's forgiveness for "the behavior of those who in the course of history have caused these children of yours to suffer." The pope's trip was hailed as a great success and contrasted with his predecessor's visit in 1964, when Pope Paul VI visited for less than a day, did not mention Israel by name, nor meet with any Israeli official. "It was beyond history, beyond memory" Rabbi Michael Melchior said of Pope John Paul II's trip, after which the rabbi announced that Israel would set up a forum to promote peace between Jews, Christians and Muslims.
Pope John Paul II died in April 2005, and was succeeded by Benedict XVI, who paid a visit to Israel in May 2009 amid ongoing talks about economic issues and who had continued efforts to reach a Final Agreement.
Progress has been slow, and several outstanding issues remain to this day.
The most recent talks took place in June this year
, led by Mgr Ettore Balestrero, Under-Secretary for Relations with States and Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon.
Among the outstanding issues are: which religious institutions owned by the Holy See in Israel will be exempted from tax, in the same manner as synagogues and mosques; the expropriation of Church property for infrastructure purposes; whether church-owned businesses will be exempted from taxes; and questions of sovereignty over sites such as the Cenacle – the site of the Last Supper located outside Zion Gate in Jerusalem.
Following the latest meeting, the Holy See and the State of Israel released a joint statement saying that the negotiations "took place in a thoughtful and constructive atmosphere. The commission took notice that significant progress was made towards the conclusion of the Agreement."
However, a diplomatic official said that while significant progress may indeed have occurred; there was still a long way to go in dealing with issues that have bedeviled the sides for years.
Thus, while the accord of 2003 marked a ground-breaking turning point in Israel-Holy See relations, as well as in ties between the wider Jewish and Christian worlds, almost two decades on, the sides are still struggling to finalize the agreement. Perhaps 2013 will bear fruit.

375ml capped green bottle. 2012.
A: Pours a clear pale yellow with a 1/2" white head forms a cap and leaves spotty and stringy lace.
N: Very vinous, of course, slight sweetness like grape juice, some faint oaky wood, floral and yeasty notes.
T: Tart and slightly astringent, white grapes lead with some prickles and slightly spicy, floral with minerality, some musty skin, oak and earthy funk. Faint lemon and yeast.
M: Semi-medium body and carbonation. Finishes light with tart grape skins.
O: Refreshing and juicy. Give it a try

The beer pours a hazy, pale gold/yellow color with almost-white highlights and a light, tightly packed head of slightly-off-white colored bubbles that fizzle to a scrim/ring. In body the beer is a hazed wonder, nearly opaque with just a faint outline of the other side of the glass reaching the eye. Lazy carbonation bubbles can be seen tracing their way up to the beer's head. On the nose, the beer smells of fruity funk. Cherry fruit leather with light, funky hay and barnyard and even light pineapple notes, tartly sparkle on the nose. The vinous notes don't really come through on the nose, though the beer does smell slightly sweeter than a 'regular' wild ale. On the tongue, the beer tastes tart with acidity and a light sour feel, this is mellowed at the end by a beautiful sweet wheat, and is lightly balanced by just a touch of bitter grass. The beer feels sharper in carbonation, with a medium mouthfeel that has a light crispness to it, alongside a little oiliness. In flavor the beer begins witth tart, fruity green apple with touches of sweet white wine and tannic oak toast that comes more fully on in the finish, right before smooth wheat biscuits wash over the tongue, softening the sharp acidity and letting some nice bread character come to the tongue alongside soft citric pineapple and cherry. As you breathe out the beer gives some lovely oaky wine characters alongside the wheat bread. The finish is very long and complex, morphing from funk to oak to wheat and back again as it lingers in the mouth. Overall I like this beer a lot. The tannic oak adds a great addition to this beer in comparison with the oak I sampled last night in Jolly Pumpkin's La Roja. There is some nice complexity in this beer, yet it holds its funk in restraint and doesn't get crazy wild with the acidity. This is a beer to try.

Pours pale orange and mildly cloudy. There's not a ton of sediment, but this bottle had been sitting on its side. I just don't really care about clarity. Small white head. It's somewhat fizzy, pretty good for a sour though, and dissipates to nothing after a couple minutes. The aroma has a good dose of those Riesling grapes with a big and fruity grape/wine flavor. Nice array of apples, peaches, apricots, pears, etc. Medium oak strength. There's an acerbicly woody tone. On the downside, there's also a light buttery note that I don't love. It dissipates a bit over time, but I much preferred the barrel character of Spontannoble (Sauternes barrels, I think). Some nice funk is also in the mix. The taste is medium tart. Initially, it's quite dry with good funk, oak and wine/grape fruitiness, but the sweetness picks up a bit in the finish, and the buttery oak flavor makes an appearance. The wine flavor is fairly strong throughout. Good acidity level and character. The mouthfeel is lightly prickly with a medium pucker. For 7.7% abv, it's pretty light on the palate, but I think that this beer would be better bumped down a couple percentage points. I just think it could be brighter, and I suspect that the strength contributes to the flavors that I don't love. However, it's a good to very good sour, overall. I just loved Spontannoble, and after that beer, this one is a tad disappointing. I don't think this one quite justifies the price tag, but it's close, and that's a pretty high bar.

Hammond, La. - In an ongoing investigation, over 90 retailors in Tangipahoa Parish have been cited over the past year for the illegal sale of alcoholic beverages to persons under 21.
Juvenile detectives, working for the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office have been visiting stores in an attempt to illegally buy beer and alcohol. Over the past 12 months, Sheriff Daniel Edwards says nearly 500 undercover visits were conducted, with 90 local retailors cited for selling alcohol to minors.
"We are making progress," Edwards said. "I am extremely pleased with the efforts of my detectives. We see underage drinking and the purchasing of alcohol for underage consumption as a community-wide issue that will take the combined efforts of law enforcement and our community to combat." he continued.
Alcohol licenses can be taken away from store owners who sell alcohol to minors or "persist in putting profits before the safety of our youth." Selling alcohol to a minor can result in a fine of up to $500.00 and up to $1,000.00 on the second offense. A store owner's alcohol license can be revoked on a third offense.
Edwards says this is an on-going operation for the sheriff's office and more store checks are planned.

Imagine living in Flagstaff, Ariz., and never going to see what that Grand Canyon thing is all about.
Thats kind of like being in the Florida Keys and never plunging into the aquamarine wonder that lies just off these shores. Except the coral reef is closer.
Most people who spend any time at all in the Keys don a mask and fins to snorkel the astonishing array of habitat and marine life that thrives at the coral reef, the only environment of its kind off North America.
Snorkeling is a grand experience, particularly at world-renowned sites such as Looe Key off the Lower Keys or Molasses Reef off Key Largo. For others, the best way to experience life in the undersea involves strapping on an air tank and regulator as a scuba diver. Using scuba gear does carry an element of risk, so training is mandatory.
Passing the course means a diver has been certified by one of the national training agencies. There are several, but PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors), NAUI (National Association of Underwater Instructors), SSI (Scuba Schools International) and YMCA are among the largest.
Obtaining dive certification earning a C-card opens the door to a pursuit that can be as mellow or adventurous as desired. Few places in the world certainly not in the U.S. provide a better locale for dive-certification training than the Florida Keys.
Its just an awesome place to learn to dive, said Amy Schuhmann, manager and instructor at Tildens Scuba Center in Marathon. The shallow barrier reef makes training easy, and the conditions here are so nice. Plus theres lots of marine life and all the beautiful coral.
The Keys have more than two dozen operations that offer dive instruction, usually in small groups that allow personalized attention or even on a one-to-one basis. Some of the first businesses offering recreational dive training in America opened in the Keys.
Dive training has evolved over the years, becoming less rigorous so that a person comfortable in the water can progress at his or her own pace.
If a person has any motivation at all to become a diver, theres rarely a problem, said Ric Altman, owner of Silent World Dive Center in Key Largo. Weve got shallow reefs with good [underwater] visibility and light currents, so this is a good place to learn.
One way to sample scuba diving is called the resort course, a one-day session that includes the most basic instruction, followed by a dive trip with an instructor. However, time spent in a resort course may not apply toward a full certification.
Becoming a certified diver who can dive with most operations worldwide requires elements of classroom work and pool training, followed by one or more open-water dives at the reef.
The advent of home learning, through video or computer programs, has trimmed the time needed to be spent in on-site classroom work covering topics such as gas theory and why divers must constantly monitor their time and depth.
A person seeking basic certification should still plan to allow three to four full days for training.
A lot of people who live up north may do their classroom theory and pool training there, then come down here to make their supervised open-water dives, said Guy Sheets from Quiesence Diving Services of Key Largo. If theyre smart, they realize that their local quarry or lake is probably cold and dark, and the Keys have nice clear water thats usually warm.
Costs of training vary depending on locale, study materials and the size of the class, but a basic certification course can be expected to run from $385 to $450. Rental equipment is included.
Upon passing a knowledge test and completing the required number of dives, a student becomes a diver, eligible to rent dive gear and book reef trips.
Generally, a basic certification covers depths to about 60 feet, more than enough to dive vast swathes of the Florida Keys coral reef and get bottom time with angelfish and sergeant majors amid the polychromatic corals.
Most of the Keys sites renowned among divers worldwide Molasses, Looe, Grecian Rocks, Sombrero and so many more that are protected by the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary lie in waters considered shallow by dive standards.
But the Keys diving experience can go beyond shallow. Doing the deep means adding another level of certification to dive training. An advanced open-water certification will be required by most dive operators to visit famed Keys shipwrecks as the Spiegel Grove, the Duane, the Eagle, the Thunderbolt or the Adolphus Busch, or to drop down to deeper reefs (every Keys diver should strive to see the Sherwood Forest reef in the remote Dry Tortugas at least once).
That training can be combined with the basic certification, but will require an extra two days or so to fit in the expanded range of training dives required.
Then go see the fish.

Eye-opening quotes from Thomas Dimitroff as he ponders the team's past and future.
A seemingly throwaway comment from an Arthur Blank interview may point to a larger change in philosophy.
Arthur Blank was on ESPN's "The Herd" this morning. Here's a link to the full interview. Topics of discussion include Julio Jones, Matt Ryan, and the end of the CBA negotiations.
Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank says the 2011 NFL Draft is a sign that his team will not be timid. That's welcome news for The Falcoholic.
The Falcoholic is a little skeptical of the intent behind Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank's latest letter to fans. While there may be good intentions, Dave Choate can't help but be jaded by the...
Can we please start a petition to get Arthur Blank to bring Samuel L. Jackson and that Gospel Choir to the Georgia Dome, to do that Rise Up commercial live pregame on Saturday. I would love..
I know there's still negotiations to be had and perhaps a few lower-tier free agents kicking around, but that's an awful lot of cap space. It might be very handy to have around next off-season to lock up key players, but we really don't know what kind of position we'll be in yet. Maybe Arthur Blank is building a Scrooge McDuck style vault as we speak. Incidentally, I also have $20 million in salary cap room. The unfortunate part is that my salary cap is $20,000,001.15. I guess we can't all be wealthy.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, that might just be the case.
via redpath-museum.mcgill.ca It didn't end the way we wanted it to, but what a season it was. I'm extremely proud of the Falcons, from Arthur Blank down to the towel boys, and all of the fans...
If you're Arthur Blank, is money alone enough to help you get through the hardest times? The answer is obviously no, as the AJC's Mark Bradley found out. On the one year anniversary of Michael...

BLADEN COUNTY, NC (WECT) - According to records released by the Bladen County jail Friday, more inmates were hospitalized in 2012 from fights than the previous three years combined.
Eight inmates last year had to be transported to the hospital as a result of incidents inside the jail; however, only six inmates required hospitalization between 2009 and 2011.
An additional 28 assaults were reported from the past two years. That number is up from seven reported assaults between 2009-2010.
Joshua Ward was assaulted in the Bladen County Jail in Jan. and David Gilchrist is the fourth person charged in the assault, according to a news release.
David Gilchrist along with Mathue Johnson, age 18, Twasjay Brown, age 19, and Darryl Simmons, age 33, have been charged with assault inflicting serious bodily injury and second degree kidnapping.

If you shop at Bloomingfoods or the Bloomington Community Farmers' Market, searching for certified organic vegetables or bedding plants, you have probably purchased something beautiful and alive from Lee and Dale Jones of Stranger's Hill Farm.
Stranger's Hill Greenhouse and Farm is located on Louden Road, just under 12 miles away from Bloomingfoods East. Each year the farm supplies our store with a variety of organic bedding plants for transplanting to area yards and gardens. Lee and Dale also sell mixed vegetables (including tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, green beans, and winter squash), herbs (mostly basil), and small fruits. They offer tours of their farm by prior arrangement.
Lee and Dale were this year's winners of our 2007 Bill Krejci Cooperative Service Award, given at the annual meeting of the co-op. Bloomingfoods honored them for their long-standing contributions to our co-op community, their cheerful, gorgeous presence at the Farmers' Market, their promotion of sustainable farming practices, and their business success.
"It's such a pleasure doing business with Lee and Dale, who offer us outstanding organic products and plants, and who have done so much to advance awareness of sustainable gardening in our region," said Bloomingfoods General Manager George Huntington, presenting the Jones's with the Bill Krejci Award.

Dr. James G. Pesek retired in August 2012, ending a 32-year career with Clarion University. Although he isn't reporting to his office in Still Hall anymore, he is still helping students.
Pesek and his wife, Karen Westfall Pesek, have established the James G. & Karen Pesek Management Scholarship, which will be awarded to incoming freshmen with a minimum high school grade point average of 3.25, a minimum SAT score of 1,000, a declared major in management or human resource management and demonstrated financial need.
His wife also recently retired from Immaculate Conception, where she was a middle school teacher and former principal.
"During the fall, Karen and I made the decision to create a scholarship, so we met with (director of development) John Catone and (CEO) Mike Keefer from the Clarion University Foundation in October to discuss several options for establishing a scholarship," Pesek said.
Pesek came to Clarion University in 1980 as assistant professor and advanced to full professor in 1988 in the College of Business Administration's administrative science department. He also served as chair of the department, as well as serving as interim provost of the university, interim dean of COBA and dean of COBA.
During that time, he has seen how students benefit from scholarships, and he found it to be a perfect way to give back to the university.
"I have been fortunate to have a long and rewarding career at Clarion University," Pesek said. "Clarion University has meant a great deal to us, so Karen and I are pleased to give back to the university and its future students through this scholarship."
The Peseks expect the first awards to be made in fall 2013.
Clarion University is the high-achieving, nationally recognized, comprehensive university that delivers a personal and challenging academic experience.

This is very simple. This cruise caters to people of a very advanced age range. I went to Alaska on the Holland America Statendam with my girlfriend. We are 30. There were very few events that she and I would even consider going to. The music was old-fashioned, the shows were laughably G-rated and particularly unfunny--so much so that we had to leave it was so painful to watch. The "activities" on the boat, if you were to call them that, were about as exciting as watching cheese age.
I also felt that the cruise misrepresented itself in terms of how many destinations we'd be stopping at. It seemed like 5, but we only left the boat 3 times on a 7 night cruise, and with so little to do on the ship, it was very "cabin feverish" at points. All that said, Alaska is beautiful and we did see whales and glaciers from the boat and watch beautiful sunsets.
All the ship had to do was make an effort, which no one on the bartending staff decided to attempt (with four passengers ready to take a cocktails class, the instructor decided to cancel it "because there weren't enough people"). The breakfast came to our room, which was nice, but the lunch was beyond mediocre. The dinner isn't bad, but they want you to pay extra for the nicer food. The drink prices are fairly reasonable, especially the liquor, but there is a 15% service charge on all drinks/bottles, which is completely unreasonable as well as an $11.50 cent charge per day per person for cleaning your room. That's outrageous. So really, the price of the cruise was misrepresented as well.
I ended up feeling a bit cheated by Holland America, though, as I said there are nice moments like the wine class, Glacier Bay, and the views from the Crow's nest. It seemed like the older crowd had a good time, but please, if you're under sixty, consider a different option to see Alaska.

Issues On Opening Checking Accounts

From Bankrate.com:
Note that negative record (e.g., bounced checks) stays with ChexSystems for five years. Meanwhile, I would suggest trying small community/local banks/credit unions, which have more lenient rules for checking account openings.
Step 1: Identify those banks/credit unions that do not require a FICO check (traditionally called "hard pull).
Step 2: Try small banks/credit unions that one can open account in branch immediately. In this manner, one can explain and "soft-speak" the CSR into opening a checking account on the spot.

I was coming back from India and seen a car on fire in the South side lane of 69 exit#279. I turned around and stopped to help, Getting the people away from the car I called the Fire dept it only took 15 mins to show but all were safe as far as the people but I think they will need a new car.

I'm trying to set VoIP on my Nokia N78.
1. SIP profile registered OK.
2. Installed SIP_VoIP_Settings (tried both SIP_VoIP_3_x_Settings_v2_0_en and SIP_VoIP_Settings_v1_2_en)
3. In case of SIP_VoIP_3_x_Settings_v2_0_en no Advanced VoIP settings menu appeared anywhere (or maybe it's in some strange place I couldn't find)
4. In case of SIP_VoIP_Settings_v1_2_en program shortcut appeared in "Applications" (not a "Provider" shortcut). Although pressing this shortcut produce no result.
Maybe abything is wrong or nothing can be done with N78?

While Colts team president Bill Polian has been making a much bigger deal out of his team's need for bigger, stronger run blockers for the offensive line this offseason, it was clear to close observers of the Colts that the defensive line also could use some help.
The need on the defensive side of the ball became a lot greater following the release of versatile veteran Raheem Brock, who very effectively played in all 16 games for the Colts at both end and tackle for the sixth time in eight seasons in '09. With Brock tiring of his constantly shifting act and the Colts mutually agreeing to let him split the scene, the D-line suddenly seemed a bit thin on the edges.
Enter 6-2, 254-pound TCU product Jerry Hughes, who at the very least should give the Colts another quality pass rusher off the edge to go with twin terrors Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis after being selected with the team's first pick in the first round.
Hughes, a former running back, played his entire career at left end and was the nation's leading sacker with 15 in 2008. Possessing a wicked first step and excellent anticipation, he's an undersized but relentless customer who should fit nicely in the Colts' one-gap scheme.
Hughes could stand to improve against the run, but in Colts defensive coordinator Larry Coyer's unpredictable, blitz-happy defense, where constantly alternating fronts and coverages create more one-on-one situations for his speedy ends, Hughes' primary function will be to pressure the passer, which is something he never has had trouble doing.
On Friday, the odds are strong that Polian will put his second- and third-round money where his mouth has been primarily positioned on the offensive line.
Of course, with the Colts you never can be quite sure what they will do — except end up drafting wisely more often than not.

Hey Gang:)
Like many here, I love looking at old architectural plans, particularly 18-19th Century engravings! What I find particularly facinating is discovering buildings that were never built. I am sure we all enjoyed the postings on another thread featuring some of the losing designs for the National Museum, and the magnificent plans by Soane for the Bank of Ireland.
I would like to propose this thread be dedicated to the posting and discussion of buildings which never graced our cities and towns for whatever reason. Granted, there is a section of unbuilt proposals already on archiseek, but most of them are Celtic Tiger era projects which most of us had already seen in newspapers and most of which can be readily found on the internet.
I was partly inspired to crate this thread (my first) by interesting topics over on Skyscrapercity Forums. They concern various unbuilt designs from right accross the UK starting with the Jacobean era running right up to the 1960s/1970s.
There doesn't seem to be anything similar relating to Ireland. Whilst, I must confess that I don't have much material to post myself I thought that I might get the ball rolling as several archiseek posters are a veritable goldmine of historical architectural information:)
What say ye?? It can really be anything from the mythical Gandon second place design in the Royal Exchange competition to Cooleys original Public Record Office design with one courtyard and no dome which morphed into the Four Courts we know today under Gandons pen. Right up to, Abercrombies plans, the Merrion Square Cathederal and the full plans for the Civic office!
PS: This is my first thread so mods if you think I am needlessly straying over old covered material thats ok!

12Ashton Kutcher Finally Got Sick of Demi Moore's Sh-t, Filed for Divorce
From People:
Ashton Kutcher has filed for divorce from Demi Moore.
The papers were filed Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court. Kutcher, 34, citing irreconcilable differences, isn't seeking any spousal support nor is he asking the court to deny Moore any. The documents also show that because the couple had no children together, child support and visitation are not an issue.
So it's about one of three things, by my best guess. One, Ashton wants to up and marry his long-time love, Mila Kunis, and he can't very well do that while he's still married to Demi Moore; two, Ashton's sick of being tied to a trainwreck, no matter how far removed; or three, he's just one of those procrastinating type of people, and if that's the case, that shit really gets on my nerves.
Oh, wait, right. No, the fact that he cheated on Demi to begin with, abused her trust and feelings, and then rebounded with chicks mere weeks after being kicked out of his house. No, you're totally right—that's the kind of shit that really gets on my nerves.
Demi might be an unstable dumbass, but Ashton Kutcher is the devil, guys. And a stupid devil, at that.

The only evidence that Ashton is stupid is that he made the mistake of marrying Demi.
Disagree… Who knows what kind of bat shit crazy she unloaded on him during that marriage. I'm team Ashton all the way.
The guy is at best a sex addict and at worst a serial cheater. He has actually talked about how prior to being with Demi, he slept with everyone and that it was destructive. Get a grip.
How long is he supposed to stay married to her when they are not together?
He could have divorced her at any time after he cheated with the model and before he got with Mila but he waited. Either Mila demanded an engagement or she's pregnant. Either way Ashton is a cheater and how Mila got him will be how she loses him.
I totally agree! I think if someone left their SO for me I'd be so paranoid that'd be how they'd leave me too.
Agreed. The second I read ths, my irst thought was, "Mila Kunis must be knocked up". The best chance Ashton has of coming out of this looking less like a douchebag is fatherhood. That is, after all, the one thing Demi could not provide. Well, that and sanity.
The timing is weird. If Ashton knew Demi at all he'd know this would completely devastate her. So either he's super cruel and karma is about to backhand him or he has a bigger reason for timing it like this. Mila is probably pregnant and her family is not going to take any of Ashton's nonsense.
Mila is going to pop that kid out and Ashton will be heading for the models again.
I'm with you. He couldn't have picked a worse time and it's hard to believe that anybody could be so self-absorbed that they wouldn't know that. You're probably right about Mila. I don't know why, but I always thought she was smarter than that….evidently not.
There's no good time to get rid of deadweight. Jus' sayin'. No matter when did it, some folks woild find reason to squawk. I hope that he and his age-appropriate, non attention-seeking girlfriend stay happy.
Nothing weird about the timing. It's been a year of separation so they are now eligible to divorce. I'm sure that Mila has not been thrilled about being linked to a still legally married man. He waited for Dummy to do it but she didn't so he did. She has enough of her own money that there should be no legal hang-ups. I am happy for Ashton that he finally came to his senses and cut off the dead weight (lol!)
Maybe they had a big argument and Ashton finally reached his limit.

It's back to the drawing board for Albany City Commissioners after they could not decide what to do with $200,000 that will be generated from the Hotel-Motel tax increase.
We first told you about this one percent tax increase two weeks ago. A new state law gives cities the power to raise that amount from seven percent to eight.
Tuesday morning, commissioners debated where the money is needed. A portion of the board thought the money should be used to offset costs at the Civic Center.
Other commissioners wanted to divide the money between the Civic Center, The Civil Rights Institute, RiverQuarium, and Thronateeska.
"We all are in favor of the basics but, it was the ground level they are discussing," said Albany City Commissioner Tommie Postell. "If it goes to all those different branches then it will create a problem, if we try to give something too somebody else. Because it will be locked in."
City Commissioners will re-vote on this issue on November 27th at 6:30pm.

Here's what our
customers had to say about North Square Restaurant:
Apart from the "Washington Square regulars" and "half of NYU", "no one knows" about this "swell little neighborhood place", a "favorite" of "grown-ups" who "count on" its "superior", "value"-priced New American cuisine and "cordial, pro" service; an "easy" vibe — i.e. you "can talk without going hoarse" — seals the deal.
Decor came in with a 19. Service copped a score of 22. And the grade for the chow? Chef Joel Cruz and staff maintained a solid 23!
The Sunday Jazz brunch, braised short ribs and chopped salad merited special mentions from our customers. (Why? Um, because they're awesome.)
Thanks to everyone who voted…we promise we won't let you down!
