1. Will the New York Islanders survive a last-gasp attempt to save the season?
The Islanders sit at 29 points and three points behind No. 8 Carolina (and the New York Rangers) who each have a game in hand over the team from Nassau County. Facing the Florida Panthers on Sunday afternoon, the Islanders have a chance to salvage a thus-far disastrous homestand and keep their faint playoff hopes alive with 17 games remaining in the season.
2. What about Philly? Can the Flyers somehow climb back into this race?
The Flyers sit two points behind the Panthers and face the No. 1 team in the East on Sunday, and haven't played in nearly a week. Yet a win would thrust the Flyers right back into the conversation for teams battling for playoff positioning, a remarkeable thought considering just how down-and-out the team has been fore most of this season. They'll need to beat the Penguins however...
3. Will the Pittsburgh Penguins ever lose a game again?
The Penguins have now won 11 straight games to vault to the top of the Eastern Conference and they've done so mostly without Kris Letang and Evgeni Malkin, which makes the feat all the more impressive. Now they take on the Flyers, winners of two of their last seven games and reeling after a 4-2 loss to Tampa Bay six days ago -- they might not ever lose again.
4. Will Evgeni Malkin return triumphantly on Sunday?
Malkin has missed seven games since being injured on March 9 against the Toronto Maple Leafs and has been "day-to-day" for most of the past week, taking part in contact drills in practice and could be available on Sunday against the Flyers. The Penguins haven't exactly "missed" Malkin, but his presence will take an increasingly-dominant team to another level of incredible.
5. How will the Tampa Bay Lightning respond after Guy Boucher's firing?
The Tampa Bay Lightning seemed to have been destined for something great this season, getting off to a hot start and seemingly taking big step forward under young coach Guy Boucher. The season has crumbled, however, and the Lightning are likely to miss the postseason after an incredible collaps and now Boucher has been fired -- now they travel to Winnipeg to take on the surging Jets who hope to build some ground in the division race. Tough task for a struggling team.

Bordeaux Climate & Weather
Bordeaux Climate and Weather
Bordeaux experiences a temperate, oceanic climate with warm summers and mild winters. Bordeaux weather is influenced by its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean as well as the Gulf Stream which has a warming effect. Summer rainfall is common in Bordeaux when average daytime highs reach around 77°F (25°C), while average winter temperatures hover around the 50°F (10°C) mark. Frosts are common in the winter months but snowfall is very rare, occurring only once every three years or so.
Bordeaux gets over 2,000 hours of sunshine every year and its mild climate makes it a year-round holiday destination. Summer is peak tourism season, as with most of France, but many visitors consider spring the best time to visit Bordeaux, in order to avoid the hot weather and crowds of the summer months. Although autumn can be rainy, September to November is also a pleasant time to visit Bordeaux; however, it should be noted that most of the wineries close during October which is the traditional harvest time in Bordeaux. Winter is also an option, particularly as the city's attractions - beautiful architecture, good restaurants and great wine - are not dependent on hot weather.

San Antonio Spurs are better at basketball than Halloween
And people say the San Antonio Spurs' star players lack personality.
Like many others did, Tim Duncan and Tony Parker dressed up for Halloween.
And like many others did, they decided to "pretend" to be some sort of villainous folk.
Unlike many others (we think), they decided to point toy (we think) guns at someone dressed as infamous NBA referee Joey Crawford.
A photo, which we found with help of The Big Lead, is likely to land the players in a bit of hot water.
After all, if simply sending players home for rest is worth a $250,000 fine, chances are pretending to threaten a referee will not be taken very lightly.

Curse the quick thinking of the Arch Authority, snatching the child away before his doom was sealed. Had the lad been with the rest, surely my suffering would have ceased years ago. At last I have found him, but in a world of isolation and innocence. He has no idea of the twists and turns his life has taken thus far, nor the path I have planned for his very short future. Just let him try to discover the truth, and learn the secrets of Strata's five nested worlds. Watching his struggle will be an amusement. Facing him will be horribly wonderful.
Torin's Passage is a game for children, but like all really good games, books, and movies with similar target audience it also has that knowing wink towards older audience, and the best thing about this game is that it "winks" a lot. This is clearly one the the best adventure games from Sierra, made by a fantastic team that included talents such as Al Lowe and Michel Legrand. So if you are an adventure games fan this is a no-brainer. If not so much, then try it anyway because everyone can use a good laugh and this game is filled with hilarity.
Age requirements: ESRB Rating: EVERYONE
Minimum system requirements: Windows XP / Windows Vista / Windows 7, 1.8 GHz Processor, 512MB RAM (1 GB recommended), 3D graphics card compatible with DirectX 7 (compatible with DirectX 9 recommended), 2GB HDD, Mouse, Keyboard.

Torin's Passage is an odd entry on Al Lowe's resume. Unlike his Leisure Suit Larry titles, it's a game the whole family can enjoy. There are cute character designs and childish jokes for kids, along with the more mature humor only adults can appreciate.
The game's puzzles can be challenging, but never too frustrating. The only really tough parts are the sliding type puzzles thatread more end some levels. Like King's Quest VII, the game uses the infamous "smart" context sensitive cursor and the inventory screen that allows items to be viewed in 3-D. Torin's Passage also adds a hint system which can be accessed at timed intervals. Still, the game never descends to Telltale depths of triviality.
Torin's Passage has a decent story, good sense of humor and quality presentation. It's too bad it came along when the adventure game genre was starting to die out. I'm sure a lot of people got the game when it came with certain new computers, and now more gamers can have fun with it today. It's definitely worth a buy for fans of the genre and those looking for a computer game to play with their kids.

Wow, that is a real surprise. I had this one on CD when I was much younger. All those memories.. it had lots of nice humor and a very fantastic world to explore. I found some of the puzzles pretty challenging, I think - but I was a child.
For quite a while I tried to remember the name of this game, but I was unable to find it - so big thanks to you, gog! Insta-buy. ;)

I literally just finished playing this game a few hours before it was released here on GOG.
I had remembered playing it many years ago and having a great time with it then, and so I decided to play it again. After doing so I can safely say it's still as fun as it was all those years ago. It's chock-full of bad punchlines (the good kind), entertaining death sequences and ratherread more challenging puzzles at times (and funny of course). The voice acting is good and the same can be said about the story and the art style. It's not a particularly long game (6-12 hours on first playthrough) but it's most certainly an entertaining game.
If you like old school adventure games, this game is a steal for just $5.99.

Lise loves Colas. Colas loves Lise. But Lise's mother, the Widow Simone, has agreed that her wayward daughter should marry Alain, son of a pompous, wealthy vineyard owner. Alain however, is more interested in his precious umbrella than romance.

Robbie Williams
Rumours of a return tour have been running hot since the release of his latest studio offering late last year, and now Chugg Entertainment can proudly confirm that the rumours are true. Few artists can boast that they've sold 55 million albums globally, but Robbie can.
One of Britain's premier pop superstars, known for his cheeky wit as much as his hit-studded albums, the one and only Robbie Williams will be making his long overdue return to Australia for a national run of dates this September, bringing his incredible swing album, Swings Both Ways.
14/02/2015 - 14/02/2015
The tour follows the surprise success story of 2012, when the hitmakers played a string of sold out arenas.
Roxette dominated the charts in the late '80s and early '90s with The Look, Listen to Your Heart, Joyride, It Must Have Been Love, Dangerous and Dressed For Success.
Songwriter Per Gessle said the success of their comeback tour in Australia was in line with the rest of the world.

CATEGORIES Trailers and ClipsThere are few movies with a more lurid fog of fascination built up around them than Lars von Trier's two-part sex epic (we really keep pushing for "sexpic" to become a thing -- will it ever?) "Nymphomaniac." Charting the complete sexual history of one woman (played by frequent von Trier punching bag Charlotte Gainsbourg) from adolescence to adulthood, it is said to feature hardcore sex (courtesy of porn star stand-ins) and has thus far built an air of sleazy gorgeousness around it, thanks to those amazing "orgasm face" posters and brief clips that emphasize its forbidden appeal. Well, a full trailer has dropped, of course NSFW, and it only intensifies our fascination.
It's mostly herky jerky images cut to European heavy metal (is that Rammstein?), it does at least allude to what the narrative of "Nymphomaniac" is, primarily that Joe (Gainsbourg) is found beaten in an alley by Stellan Skarsgard's character, and from that point she tells the story of how she got to that alley, mostly through her sexual experiences. And some of it does look, admittedly, pretty hot, although the whole body double aspect kind of ruins some of the fun.
Some version of the film will be released on Christmas Day in Denmark, although it's unclear as to whether or not it's the full, uncut, two-part version or some kind of truncated theatrical cut. Magnolia is handling distribution stateside and is keeping decidedly mum, although it was announced earlier today that while von Trier is welcome back to the Cannes Film Festival (after his Nazi comments a few years back), "Nymphomaniac," uncut or otherwise, isn't allowed to compete at the 2014 festival. Well that's enough to make even the most virile film fan go limp.

Jeff Duncan on Energy & Oil
Proponent's Argument for voting Yes:
[Rep. Young, R-AK]: The Americans suffering from $4 a gallon gas today must feel like they're experiencing a sense of deja vu. In 2008, when gasoline prices reached a record high of $4.11 per gallon, the public outcry forced Congress to act. That fall, Congress lifted the offshore drilling ban that had been in place for decades. Three years later, most Americans would likely be shocked to learn that no energy development has happened in these new areas.
Opponent's Argument for voting No:
[Rep. Markey, D-MA]. In the first 3 months of this year, Exxon-Mobil made $10 billion off of the American consumer; Shell made $8 billion; BP made $7 billion. So what are these companies asking for? These companies are now asking that we open up the beaches of California, Florida & New England to drill for oil. People who live near those beaches don't want oil coming in the way it did in the Gulf of Mexico. Right now, those oil companies are centered down in the Gulf of Mexico. People are concerned because those companies have blocked any new safety reforms that would protect against another catastrophic spill. We have to oppose this bill because, first of all, they already have 60 million acres of American land that they haven't drilled on yet, which has about 11 billion barrels of oil underneath it and an equivalent amount of natural gas. This bill is just a giveaway to Exxon-Mobil and Shell.
Opponent's Argument for voting No:
[Rep. Waxman, D-CA]: This bill is a direct assault on the Clean Air Act. Its premise is that climate change is a hoax and carbon pollution does not endanger health and welfare. But climate change is real. It is caused by pollution, and it is a serious threat to our health and welfare. We need to confront these realities. American families count on the EPA to keep our air and water clean. But this bill has politicians overruling the experts at EPA, and it exempts our biggest polluters from regulation. If this bill is enacted, the EPA's ability to control dangerous carbon pollution will be gutted.
The Contract from America, clause 2. Reject Cap & Trade:
Stop costly new regulations that would increase unemployment, raise consumer prices, and weaken the nation's global competitiveness with virtually no impact on global temperatures.
The Contract from America, clause 8. Pass an 'All-of-the-Above' Energy Policy:
Authorize the exploration of proven energy reserves to reduce our dependence on foreign energy sources from unstable countries and reduce regulatory barriers to all other fo
Project Vote Smart infers candidate issue stances on key topics by summarizing public speeches and public statements. Candidates are given the opportunity to respond in detail; about 16% did so in the 2010 races.
Project Vote Smart summarizes candidate stances on the following topic: 'Environment and Energy Issues: Do you support enacting environmental regulations aimed at reducing the effects of climate change?'
Congressional Summary of H.R.97:
Congressional Summary of H.R.153, "Ensuring Affordable Energy Act":
OnTheIssues Explanation:These two related bills exclude the EPA from taking on global warming by defining greenhouse gases as a "pollutant." These bills do not directly oppose regulating greenhouse gases nor cap-and-trade; either could still be accomplished by an act of Congress. Instead, they REQUIRE an act of Congress, rather than letting the President and the EPA bypass Congress by regulatory implementation instead of legislative implementation.

New London — Two men who police say were responsible for committing several serious crimes throughout the city, including a home invasion Wednesday at a 91-year-old's residence, were arrested Saturday night on warrants.
Police said the two also committed a second home invasion, a residential burglary and the October burglary of Daniel's Dairy Downtown, at 60 Bank St.
Jaden Alvarez, 20, of 171 Oneco Ave., No. 3, New London, and Marcus Delgado, 19, of 47 Elderkin Ave., were each charged with home invasion, conspiracy to commit home invasion, first-degree robbery, conspiracy to commit first-degree robbery, and two counts of first-degree burglary.
The two allegedly threatened to use a stun gun to rob the 91-year-old homeowner of money. They also threatened the use of a stun gun in the second home invasion, police said.

|Library seeking levy renewal in May
|Monday, March 18, 2013 8:24 AM
DELPHOS — On the upcoming primary ballot on May 7, Delphos voters will encounter a request to renew the Delphos Public Library's 0.6-mill levy, first approved in 1978.
They levy, which has raised the library $49,000 a year since the last renewal, comprises 13 percent of the library's annual budget.
"This levy is important because it allows us to continue to offer services that the community has come to value and use," Director Kelly Rist said. "We need this because of all the budget cuts from the state. If it doesn't pass, we'll have to look at the budget some more and look at some things to cut."
The library has put together a levy committee to promote the levy and gain community support.
"Our committee is looking for donations," Rist said. "Anyone interested in helping out can contact Jane Sadler here at the library, she's the treasurer of the levy committee."
Absentee ballots for the primary election can be turned in starting April 2.

Ashley ordered a special occasion dress from the website of a manufacturer in China. She didn't realize that the company was in China, despite the "About Us" on their site saying so, and the deeply mangled English on display on many of the pages. But no matter–sometimes shopping direct on Chinese sites can be a pleasant money-saving experience. This wasn't. Her dress looked nothing like the photo of what she ordered, and the company will only refund her if she ships the fluffy dress back to China. That will cost $138, when the dress cost only $142. She's not the only customer in this bind. So what should she do? [More]
Chargebacks: Protecting You From Scammy Online Sellers
Can I Use A Chargeback On A No-Show Electrician?
Penelope and her husband hired a licensed electrician/handyman she had worked with before to replace the breaker in her house. Miscommunication and what looks like laziness on the electrician's part meant that he missed several scheduled appointments-stopping by but not calling, then just not showing up at all. Now he's charged their credit card, but is ducking their calls and won't come out without being paid for another service visit. So Penelope and Mr. Penelope did what any sensible person would do: installed the breaker themselves, and requested a chargeback. [More]

DSW's Dirty Trick Backfires; Now Customer Has Free Shoes
DSW is playing dirty with Brook, who tried to legitimately order two pairs of shoes on January 30th. Due to an error on DSW's side, the order was never fulfilled. He called and resolved the problem and they re-processed the order, but a few days later DSW decided to send the order a second time, and this time they jacked up the price by $20. They won't let him cancel the order and say they'll only refund the smaller of the two amounts if he returns it. Surprise, DSW! According to the FTC, you just sent Brook some free shoes.
Reporter Pays Double MSRP For G1 Phone, Uses Flashmob To Get Revenge
A Time Out New York reporter paid nearly double MSRP for a new G1 phone she bought off Times Square from Cellular Stop. After she realized she'd been had (internet access and texting were sold to her as "add-ons"), she went back to the store asking for an explanation. Instead, she says, six clerks began circling her and her friends, screaming and cursing and threatening to "break" their "fucking faces." Her friend was tossed against a wall and another clerk tried to smash her camera.

Allergan acquires LiRIS program from TARIS Biomedical
Allergan and TARIS Holdings announced that Allergan has closed a transaction to acquire worldwide rights to TARIS Biomedical's lead program, LiRIS, which is currently in Phase 2 trials for the treatment of interstitial cystitis / bladder pain syndrome. Allergan paid $67.5M in cash upfront, subject to certain adjustments and holdbacks. Allergan has also agreed to pay up to an aggregate of $295M in development milestone payments and up to an aggregate of $225M in commercial milestone payments. Prior to the closing of this transaction, TARIS spun out certain assets, including pipeline programs and intellectual property related to TARIS' platform technology, to a new company funded by TARIS shareholders.
AstraZeneca says Phase 3 trials of lesinurad for gout met primary endpoints
AstraZeneca announced top-line results from CLEAR1, CLEAR2 and CRYSTAL, the pivotal Phase III clinical trials investigating the potential of lesinurad, a selective uric acid re-absorption inhibitor, as a combination therapy for the treatment of patients with symptomatic gout. Lesinurad is an investigational agent that inhibits the URAT1 transporter, increasing uric acid excretion and thereby lowering serum uric acid. In the CLEAR1 and CLEAR2 trials, both lesinurad 200mg and 400mg in combination with allopurinol met the primary endpoint, with a statistically significant higher proportion of patients reaching the target sUA goal of <6.0mg/dL at month 6 compared to allopurinol alone. In the CRYSTAL trial, lesinurad 400mg in combination with febuxostat met the primary endpoint, with a statistically significant higher proportion of patients reaching the target sUA goal of <5.0mg/dL at month 6 compared to febuxostat alone. Although lesinurad 200mg did not achieve statistical significance at month 6, this dose in combination with febuxostat, was superior to placebo plus febuxostat at all other time points. Results from these Phase III clinical trials will be submitted to a scientific meeting later in 2014. The company is proceeding with preparation of regulatory submissions for lesinurad 200mg combination therapy.

Allergan receives second request from FTC regarding Valeant's proposal
Allergan (AGN) announced that it received a request for additional information under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission in connection with Valeant Pharmaceuticals International's (VRX) unsolicited acquisition proposal of Allergan. Allergan intends to respond fully in connection with the ongoing investigation. The Company noted that Second Request investigations typically take some time to conclude, and Allergan cannot predict how long this investigation will take or how it might otherwise develop. The company previously announced that Allergan's Board of Directors unanimously determined that Valeant's unsolicited exchange offer is grossly inadequate, substantially undervalues the company, creates significant risks and uncertainties for Allergan stockholders, and is not in the best interests of the company and its stockholders. Goldman, Sachs & Co. and BofA Merrill Lynch are serving as financial advisors to the company and Latham & Watkins, Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A. and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz are serving as legal counsel to the company.

Market finishes week up slightly as earnings offset by political events
Stocks finished the week fractionally higher than where they started as strong corporate earnings reports and better than expected economic data was weighed against concerns about geopolitical issues and negative M&A news. MACRO NEWS: A few ongoing geopolitical conflicts worried investors and weighed on shares. Russia unveiled sanctions against Western countries, banning the import of a wide range of food items from the U.S, the EU and a few allied countries in response to sanctions recently enacted against it from G7 nations... President Obama authorized the bombing of rebels in Iraq and Hamas and Israel failed to reach a permanent truce... An ISM services index, the U.S. trade deficit for June, and weekly jobless claims were all better than expected. Meanwhile, the increase in unit labor costs last quarter came in below the consensus outlook, perhaps easing fears that the Fed will need to raise interest rates sooner than expected. COMPANY NEWS: On the M&A front, two huge potential deals fell through as 21st Century Fox (FOX, FOXA) withdrew its offer to acquire Time Warner (TWX) and Sprint (S) reportedly decided to end its pursuit of a merger with peer T-Mobile (TMUS)... President Obama indicated that his administration would take unilateral steps in an effort to prevent companies from carrying out tax inversion acquisitions. Among the deals or possible transactions that involve inversion are Medtronic's (MDT) acquisition of Covidien (COV), Valeant's (VRX) proposed takeover of Allergan (AGN) and Mylan's (MYL) acquisition of Abbott's (ABT) developed markets branded generics pharmaceuticals business. Meanwhile, Walgreen's (WAG) stock tumbled after the U.S. company said it would not structure its takeover of European drugstore chain Alliance Boots as a tax inversion deal... 21st Century Fox, 3D printer maker Stratasys (SSYS), chip maker NVIDIA (NVDA), brewer Molson Coors (TAP), and luxury accessories maker Coach (COH) all rose following their earnings reports. Conversely, Target (TGT), luxury accessories maker Michael Kors (KORS) and Internet coupon provider Groupon (GRPN) fell following their results or guidance... Gannett (GCI) struck a deal to acquire the remaining 73% interest in Classified Ventures, whose primary asset is the online car shopping website Cars.com, for $1.8B from the other partners in the venture, which include McClatchy (MNI), Tribune Media (TRBAA), Graham Holdings (GHC) and A. H. Belo (AHC). Gannett also announced plans to spin-off its Publishing business, which includes USA Today, through a tax-free distribution to shareholders... McDonald's (MCD) stock was little changed after the company reported that its comparable store sales fell 2.5% in July, which was significantly worse than expected. Food quality issues weighed on the fast food company's sales in Asia and as a result of the China supplier issue, the company warned its previously issued global comparable sales forecast for 2014 is now at risk. INDEXES: The Dow finished the week up 0.35% to 16,553.93, the S&P 500 rose 0.32% to 1,931.59, and the Nasdaq gained 0.41% to 4,370.90.
Allergan rises after analyst sees compelling risk/reward, upgrades stock
Shares of drug maker Allergan (AGN) are rising after research firm Leerink Swann upgraded the stock in a note to investors today. WHAT'S NEW: After Allergan's stock fell recently, the shares' risk/reward ratio has become "increasingly positive" and is now compelling, Leerink analyst Seamus Fernandez wrote. Allergan's business has shown little if any weakness as a result of Valeant's (VRX) takeover bid for the company and Allergan's planned restructuring is overdue, the analyst contended. The weakness in Allergan's shares has been caused mainly by technical and arbitrage issues, according to Fernandez, who forecasts that the company can generate EPS of over $8.20 next year. Meanwhile, Valeant's bid will prevent Allergan's stock from dropping too far as long as it is on the table, Fernandez believes. Allergan has a number of other upcoming potential positive catalysts, including a potential $5B-$10B share repurchase initiative and data due to be released on August 12 on DARPin, the company's drug for wet age-related macular degeneration. A potential compelling acquisition by Allergan could also boost the stock, the analyst wrote. He upgraded the stock to Outperform from Market Perform and placed a $184 price target on the shares. PRICE ACTION: In mid-morning trading, Allergan rose $3.98, or 2.6%, to $155.67.
On The Fly: Analyst Upgrade Summary
Today's noteworthy upgrades include: Activision Blizzard (ATVI) upgraded to Buy from Neutral at Longbow... Allergan (AGN) upgraded to Outperform from Market Perform at Leerink...

Asparagus in Corn Crepes Recipe
It's impressive on a buffet, but this dish is not as complicated as it looks. Thin sweet corn pancakes are wrapped around fresh asparagus and topped with an easy cream cheese sauce and pistachios. The flavors blend so well! -Lillian Julow, Gainesville, Florida
- 2 cups fresh or frozen corn, thawed
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup half-and-half cream
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup milk
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, cubed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 60 thin asparagus spears (about 2 pounds), trimmed
- 1 cup chopped pistachios
- In a food processor or blender, cover and process corn until pureed. Add the flour, cream, eggs, butter, salt and pepper; pulse until blended. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Heat a lightly greased 8-in. nonstick skillet; pour 1/4 cup batter into the center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to evenly coat bottom. Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Remove to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet as needed. When cool, stack the crepes with waxed paper or paper towels in between.
- In a small saucepan, heat milk and cream cheese over low until melted; stir until blended. Stir in the salt, pepper and nutmeg; keep warm. Steam the asparagus for 3-4 minutes or until crisp-tender.
- Place stack of crepes on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high for 10-15 seconds or until warmed. To assemble, fold each crepe around four asparagus spears. Place seam side down on a serving dish; drizzle with cream sauce. Garnish with pistachios. Serve immediately. Yield: 15 servings.
