Is it possible to connect to a SIP server via packet data and not just WLAN.
I have a N95 V20.0.015
and set up a SIP server running 3CX v5, I can connect to the server via WLAN with no problems and make calls out, this is a good start. but when i want to connect via packet data (i'm on a data only plan so no calling option) i cannot initiate the SIP registration.
the settings in phone as as following:
Profile name: 3cx
Service profile: IETF
Default access point: VF NZ Internet (packet data) (when selected to WLAN option it works fine)
Public user name: sip:firstname.lastname@example.com (my static IP)
Use compression: No
Registration: When needed
Use security: No
Proxy server:
Proxy server address: sip:125.xxx.xxx.xxx
Realm: 3CXPhoneSystem
User name: 10
Password: ***
Allow loose routing: Yes
Transport type: UDP
Port: 5060
Registrar server:
Registrar serv. addr. : sip:125.xxx.xxx.xxx
Realm: 3CXPhoneSystem
User name: 100
Password: ***
Transport type: UDP
Port: 5060
Now, as i said before this works fine when i'm in WLAN reception. But i want to use this over my packet data ie, when i'm not at home or near WLAN. But when i want to connect:
a) if i dial the number and make an "Internet call" it will ask if i want to register with my Internet telephone service (SIP) i say yes, but it will give me an error that it cannot connect because of no WLAN.
b) If i try to connect to the SIP server before making a call via "Internet tel." in the connectivity folder, it only gives me WLAN options and no packet data options, regardless of "Default access point: VF NZ Internet" option selected in the SIP configuration.
I really hope you can understand what i'm trying to say, basiclly i can use WLAN but not Packet Data.
I used Gizmo for a wile, and using this same method but including the gizmo client (but not using the client directly to make a call) it can connect via packet data, so i'm really not sure whats going on.
Can someone please enlighten me? do i have to use a SIP client to enable SIP calls via Packet data?
Much appreciated.
PS: i forgot to mention, when i do try to register to the SIP server via Packet data, the packet data icon on the phone doesn't even appear as if its not even crating a connection, but if WLAN, the WLAN icon will appear.

National Research Council (Canada)
|Conseil national de recherches Canada
|Agency overview
|Government of Canada
|Ottawa, Ontario
|Minister responsible
|Christian Paradis, Minister of Industry
|Agency executive
|John R. McDougall, President
The National Research Council (NRC) is the primary national research and technology organization (RTO) of the Government of Canada,[1] in science and technology research and development.[1] The Minister of Industry is responsible for the National Research Council (NRC). The transformation of the NRC into an RTO that focuses on "business-led research" was part of the federal government's Economic Action Plan.[1] On 7 May 2013, the NRC launched its new "business approach" in which it offered four business lines: strategic research and development, technical services, management of science and technology infrastructure and NRC-Industrial Research Assistance Program (IRAP). With these services, NRC intends to shorten the gap between early stage research and development and commercialization.[1] NRC two 2013 flagship real-world applications[2] are the Canadian Wheat Alliance, (CWA)[3] and the Algal Carbon Conversion Pilot Project.[3]

In the NRC's Annual Report 2007-2008 listed its authority and objectives,[4]
The National Research Council of Canada (NRC) exists under the National Research Council Act and is a departmental corporation named in Schedule II of the Financial Administration Act. The objectives of NRC are to create, acquire and promote the application of scientific and engineering knowledge to meet Canadian needs for economic, regional and social development and to promote and provide for the use of scientific and technical information by the people and the Government of Canada. In delivering its mandate, NRC reports under the following program activities: research and development; and technology and industry support. These program activities also include NRC's priorities of enhancing development of sustainable technology clusters for wealth creation and social capital as well as program management for a sustainable organization.—NRC Annual Report 2007-2008
Flagship programs[edit]
In 2011, NRC President John R. McDougall, began to oversee a change in research focus away from basic research and towards industrial-relevant research.[5][6] This included the development of several "flagship programs", shifting research budget out of existing research and into a few focused programs.
Algal Carbon Conversion Pilot Project[edit]
The Algal Carbon Conversion Pilot Project,[3] development of an algae system to recycle carbon emissions from the oil sands, with plans for a $19 million facility to be constructed in Alberta, in partnership between the NRC and industry partners, Canadian Natural Resources Limited (Canadian Natural) and Pond Biofuels.[3]
In 2008 researchers from five I-CAN organizations were developing a Carbon Algae Recycling System (CARS) to "feed waste heat and flue gas containing CO2 from industrial exhaust stacks to micro-algae growing in artificial ponds."[7] The "Algal Carbon Conversion",[3] is related to prior interests of Mr. McDougall, as he previously headed Innoventures, a company involved in lobbying for the development of an algae system to recycle carbon emissions.[8] The Algal Carbon Conversion Pilot Project, with plans for a $19 million facility to be constructed in Alberta, is a partnership between the NRC and industry partners, Canadian Natural Resources Limited (Canadian Natural) and Pond Biofuels.[3] The NRC was not involved in this area of research prior to the arrival of Mr. McDougall.
The Canadian Wheat Alliance, (CWA)[edit]
The Canadian Wheat Alliance, (CWA) is a "strategic collaboration with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC), the University of Saskatchewan's Crop Development Centre and the province of Saskatchewan."[9][2] With a budget of approximately $97 million (2013-2018), the Canadian Wheat Alliance will be conducting research on improving the yield of Canadian wheat crops and on the most efficient use of chemical fertilizers.[2] Working with the Dr. Kevin Rozwadowski at the Crop Development Centre, they will be integrating basic research with genetic improvement of wheat.[10]
The NRC is managed by a governing council. Current members of the council are: Patricia Béretta, PhD. Biomedical Engineer; Louis Brunel, President International Institute of Telecommunications Montreal, Quebec; John McDougall (President and Chairman), CEO of I-CAN, former petroleum engineer; Delwyn Fredlund, Senior Geotechnical Engineering Specialist, Golder Associates Ltd; Dr. Wayne Gulliver, dermatologist, President Newlab Clinical Research Inc.; James P. Hatton, a commercial solicitor specializing in intellectual property assets; Joseph Hubert, PhD, Dean, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Université de Montréal; Pascale Michaud, PhD, President of Business Families Foundation; Gilles Patry, PhD, Rector and Vice-Chancellor University of Ottawa; Alan Pelman, PhD, Former Vice-President, Technology Canada, Weyerhaeuser Ltd.; Louise Proulx, PhD, Vice-President, Product Development, Topigen Pharmaceuticals Inc.; René Racine, OC, PhD, professor emeritus with the physics department at the University of Montreal, director of the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope project; Salma Rajwani, CIO of Acrodex, president of Arcspan Solutions, (PSA) program; Inge Russell, PhD, brewing yeast and fermentation scientist, London, Ontario; Barbara Stanley, corporate solicitor; President BESCO Holdings 2002 Inc. Rothesay, New Brunswick; Howard Tennant, PhD, President Emeritus University of Lethbridge; Jean-Claude Villiard, Special Advisor, Privy Council Office, Government of Canada and Louis Visentin, PhD, President Brandon University, Brandon, Manitoba.[11] Opposition questioned the reduction in size of the council advising the president from 18 to 10 in October 2013, given "the large geographic diversity in this country and the large diversity of research in the natural sciences, engineering, health sciences, and social sciences."[12]
Close to 4,000 people across Canada are employed by the NRC. In addition, the Council also employs guest workers from universities, companies, and public and private-sector organizations. [1]
The NRC was established in 1916 under the pressure of World War I to advise the government on matters of science and industrial research. In 1932, laboratories were built on Sussex Drive in Ottawa.
With the impetus of World War II, the NRC grew rapidly and for all practical purposes became a military science and weapons research organization. It undertook a number of important projects, which included participation with the United States and United Kingdom in the development of chemical and germ warfare agents, the explosive RDX, the proximity fuse, radar, and submarine detection techniques. A special branch known as the Examination Unit was involved with cryptology and the interception of enemy radio communications. According to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service website, the NRC headquarters in Ottawa "was a prime espionage target" during the Cold War.[13] The NRC was also engaged in atomic fission research at the Montreal Laboratory, then the Chalk River Laboratories in Ontario.
Post-WWII, the NRC reverted to its pre-war civilian role and a number of wartime activities were spun off to newly formed organizations. Military research continued under a new organization, the Defence Research Board. Atomic research went to the newly created Atomic Energy of Canada Limited. Foreign signals intelligence gathering officially remained with the agency when, by Order in Council, the Examination Unit became the Communications Branch of the NRC in 1946. The CBNRC was transferred to the Department of National Defence in 1975, and renamed the Communications Research Establishment. During the 1950s, the medical research funding activities of the NRC were handed over to the newly formed Medical Research Council of Canada.
In the 1960s, Nestor Burtnyk, who worked as a NCR scientist since 1950, began Canada's first substantive computer graphics research project while at the NCR's Division of Radio and Electrical Engineering's Data Systems Group.[14] Marceli Wein, teamed up with Burtnyk in 1966 at NRC. In 1996 they were honoured for their contributions towards the birth of computer animation.[15]They were recognized as Fathers of Computer Animation Technology in Canada at the Festival of Computer Animation in Toronto in 1996. They worked with the National Film Board of Canada and animator Peter Foldès to produce the 1971 experimental film Metadata and the 1974 short film Hunger.[14]
Finally, on May 1, 1978, with the rapid post-war growth of Canadian universities the NRC's role in university research funding in the natural sciences was passed to the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada.
Under financial pressure in the 1980s, the federal government produced what popularly became known as the Neilson Report, which recommended across-the-board financial cuts to all federal government organizations, including the NRC. This led to staff and program cutbacks.
In 2000, there were about 1000 NCR researchers with Ph.D.s conducting research in a many areas.[16]
Recovery was slow, but the NRC has managed to regain its status as Canada's single most important scientific and engineering research institution among many other Canadian government scientific research organizations.[citation needed]
As President of the National Research Council Canada, chemist Arthur Carty, revitalized the organization. In 2004 he left the NRC when then prime minister Paul Martin appointed him as independent, non-partisan advisor on science and technology.[17]
Minister of State for Science and Technology, Gary Goodyear 2008-[edit]
Today, much of the NRC's focus is on developing partnerships with private and public-sector technology companies, both nationally and internationally. Under the federal Minister of State for Science and Technology, Gary Goodyear, the NRC became a "toolbox for industry" and dented basic-research infrastructure.[18] [notes 1]
Planning and reporting[edit]
The NRC reports yearly within the Treasury Board Secretariat's Results-Based Management Framework. The NRC is currently guided by a strategic plan for 2006-2011: Science at Work for Canada.[19]
Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP)[edit]
The National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP) was introduced in the 1950s to support product developments in small to medium-sized businesses. The NRC provides grants and financial support to business' looking to bring new and innovative technologies to the market.[20]
Some of the many innovations by NRC personnel included the artificial pacemaker, development of canola (rapeseed) in the 1940s, the Crash Position Indicator in the 1950s, and the Cesium Beam atomic clock in the 1960s.
Since 1974 Paul Barton of PSB Speakers used the NRC's world-class measurement facilities, their anechoic chamber. By the 1980s more companies began to use this incredible resource and began to develop at the NRC. Even small companies had access to these facilities for loudspeaker measurements of high quality, offering them a competitive edge.[16] Eventually almost every major Canadian company including Energy Loudspeakers and Paradigm Electronics, tested their loudspeakers at the NRC. Electrical engineer, Floyd E. Toole, who worked at the NRC was at the centre of this research.[16] By the year 2000 most companies had their own sound chambers, but Paul Barton continued to use the NRC's facilities. In about 1997, PSB and other Canadian companies worked with the NRC on Athena to evaluate digital signal processing (DSP) for loudspeaker design.[16]
The metal walls of the NRC's anechoic chamber are located about a foot and a half from the internal walls that surround it. The whole chamber is suspended on springs. This makes it a building within the M-37 building. The purpose of all this is to provide a completely isolated environment that, according to Barton, registers a noise level that is less than 0dB. (0dB is a statistical average of the lowest level of human hearing.) Wedges made from fiberglass are inside the chamber, and they help create the reflection-free environment. No sound gets in, none gets out, and what occurs within gets completely absorbed with nary a bounce.—Schneider, 2000
From 2002 to 2006, John R. McDougall, who was appointed President of NRC in 2010, was a member of the NRC-Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP) Advisory Board.[21]
In 2011 Bev Oda Minister of International Cooperation and Gary Goodyear, Minister of State (Science and Technology) announced the grant recipients. These included small to medium-sized businesses, such as, Nortek Solutions a privately owned Canadian software company. They received a $30,000 grant from NCR to hire a young graphics design graduate to work on their "CUROS" people management software. Oasys Healthcare, a company that provides "innovative audio and video solutions for the medical marketplace" received a $13,000 NCR grant for its new technology for operation rooms. Jeffrey Ross Jewellery's product called Dimples, imprints fingerprints in silver using an innovative process and material, developed through a NCR $35,750 grant.[22]
NRC Institute for Research in Construction[edit]
In 2009 the Institute for Research in Construction, NRC-IRC's lighting group worked with an industry consortium to study the potential applications of LEDs and OLEDs in office environments.[23]
Transition of NRC to industry-driven, program-based research[edit]
In a press conference held in Ottawa, 7 May 2013, with Gary Goodyear, Minister of State (Science and Technology) and Deputy Leader of the Government at the Senate, Claude Carignan, John R. McDougall announced the transition of the NRC to an industry-driven, program-based research and technology organization.[24][6]
Restriction on government scientists to communicate with the public 2008[edit]
Under the tenure of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Canadian Government research organizations began to restrict the ability of government scientists to communicate with the public.[17] This includes restricting scientists within the NRC to communicate with the public through non-scientist communications personnel. Harper's focus as an economist was on his action plan, creating jobs and building the economy. There were widespread concerns that the progress in development was at the cost of the environment.
Appointment of John McDougall as NRC Director 2010[edit]
The appointment of John McDougall ad Director of NRC, who has a long and successful career in partnering science and technology research and development with industry partners, was a very cause of concern.
Bill C-38[edit]
Bill C-38 raised the ire of many who opposed unfettered industrial growth and who argued that science was being gutted and silenced to open the way for development in ecologically sensitive areas in the north.[25]
In June, 2012, the federal opposition made a motion in parliament,[26]
That, in the opinion of the House, Canadian scientific and social science expertise is of great value and, therefore, the House calls on the Government to end its muzzling of scientists; to reverse the cuts to research programs at Environment Canada, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Library and Archives Canada, National Research Council Canada, Statistics Canada, and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada; and to cancel the closures of the National Council of Welfare and the First Nations Statistical Institute.—2012

SOURCE Zebra Imaging, Inc.
AUSTIN, Texas, June 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Zebra Imaging, Inc., the world's foremost provider of 3D holographic prints, announced today the creation of a strategic partnership with the Reprographic Services Association (RSA) to help serve the rapid expansion Zebra is experiencing with Architecture, Engineering and Construction Companies (AEC). The RSA is a dynamic network of over 80 companies with more than 185 locations across North America. Member companies are dedicated to servicing the AEC industry with traditional and innovative product and services. The RSA gives Zebra an incredible expansion of points of presence across the U.S. market. It's a natural extension of the use of 3D imaging in architecture, engineering and construction, which industry experts expect client use of 3D imaging to increase by 50 percent by next year.
Mark Beilman, Executive Director, Reprographic Services Association, states, "The RSA is excited to partner with Zebra Imaging to bring this innovative technology to the AEC Industry. We see a myriad of applications that will aid the Design and Build process through the enhanced visualization that this product provides."
Zebra technology provides an effective solution to quickly and easily create full 3D holograms from the vast array of digital files. They can be created in a fraction of the time and cost of today's alternatives (physical models, 3D prototypes, solid terrain modeling) and are a strong complement to 2D blueprints.
Holograms are rendered from CAD models that clients already produce for 2D renderings and animated fly-throughs. They can also be created from a vast array of "capture" techniques, such as laser scanning or oblique photography. Whether in the early stages of investment approval, zoning approval or post-approval marketing, 3D visualization can give clients a real idea of what the structure would look like, presenting precise dimensions and finely rendered structural information.
A holographic image of an architectural building or design provides a three-dimensional view no glasses required. Where physical models of structures typically cost $10,000-$20,000 and can take three to four weeks to produce, Zebra's 2-square-foot full color 3D hologram costs $1299 and can be produced within a couple of hours. It's a natural step for visualizing design between a 3-D rendering and a physical model. Holograms are robust, easy to handle and transport. Updates and multiple copies can be easily produced and sent out to stakeholders at a single location or multiple locations and shipped anywhere in the world.
"Our clients regularly use Zebra's holograms to either bypass entirely the need to create a solid model, or as tool to augment their projects, using channeling and annotation to show features that can't be seen in any other way," said Chuck Scullion, President and CEO of Zebra Imaging. With holographic technology, it's possible to peel away different layers, to have different views, to see the interior. So there's a lot more value to having a holographic image than a solid model."

HAPPY HALLOWEEN and HAPPY SAMHAIN!
I have to take my father to the cardiologist but after that it will be all about preparing for my daughter to come home from school and put her in her costume.
Last night I put about 15 feathers in her hair with the little hair extension rings. Yes, ASTI, she went to school with 15 feathers semi permanently clamped in her hair.
When she arrives home I'll have to help her into her costume and cover it with a big towel and then do her makeup and finish her hair.
We still haven't carved a pumpkin so I suppose I will have to do a quick and dirty job and do a very basic jack-o-lantern face.
The HMS Bounty crew member who was fished out of the ocean in an unresponsive condition was dead. As it turns out her name was Claudine Christian. She was a direct descendant of Fletcher Christian, the Sailing Master who lead the mutiny against Bligh.
Going to be a warm Halloween here. 75(23.8C)
Gosh, I've had trouble getting in here tonight! I have no confidence that this is going to post, but never mind, I don't have much to say!
I hope you're all having fun for your hallowe'en, and/or Samhain. We had a couple of young neighbours knock on the door.
My DS and son are watching a horror film, which I am trying very hard to ignore. But I am tired, and am finding it hard to concentrate on my book. I am working overtime again tomorrow. Christmas approaches.
Lady Hawke, I told my daughter about the 15 feathers. She gave me a pretty detailed description of what her Headmistress would say if she turned up with 15 feathers in her hair! Do you have any pictures you could post?
Oooh, it posted!
A rather belated Happy Samhain or Happy Halloween to all. We had a very muted day today because we didn't go out for lunch as we usually do. My gout was threatening to be troublesome so we stayed home and I made a beef stew for our evening meal. I updated my festive bracelet then forgot to wear it, but I did light my terracotta pumpkin with a tealight and placed it on the hearth.
I was nodding off whilst I was watching an interesting programme on TV so I had better nip off to bed.
We had well over 300, maybe 400, Trick or Treaters tonight. This neighborhood has always been good and it is building. It is now on an announced list of the best Trick or Treat neighborhoods in the city. People are coming from other towns. There were even decorated horse and riders tonight in addition to the lighted flat bed trailer floats.
I am very tired. I couldn't allow my daughter to Trick or Treat alone with her friend with so much traffic and so many strangers. She has always been far too young before but now it is like a night time carnival. For every child there were at least two or more adults.People make parties of it. So, there were probably around 2000 extra people on the loop through our neighborhood tonight. Traffic was lined up down the main road to get into our neighborhood.
GRAYMAYNE, can you postpone your celebration meal a few days until you are feeling better or do you view the opportunity as lost? I'm sorry the day was a let down for you.
AS yesterday I devoted to my father's cardiologist appointment and the preparations for the evening I did not take my mother to do her shopping. So, today I am having my Wednesday on Thursday.
KOREY posted this on Facebook but I want to make sure those of you who are not on Facebook see it.
Lady Hawke That is so cute! ;)
I am surprised that Leaky was even up the past two days. They used to be located in New York. I'm not sure if they still are there or not. ;)
Happy late Halloween and Samhain!! ;)
I have no will to stand up. I must go get in the car and pick my mother up.
It was one of those mornings I woke up with a headache. I went to bed uncomfortable and I must have slept on my pillow wrong. All I want to do is sit here and drool.
Still, off I go. Have a good day and I'll check in once I return.
Lady Hawke I am always happy to find an excuse to eat a delicious meal so I think next week will offer another opportunity. I did have one treat yesterday which I forgot to mention, I found some Yorkshire Parkin ginger cake in our local supermarket. It was darker than usual but a good flavour.
This morning my eldest neice phoned to say that her father only had a few hours to live. He is in a nursing home following a stroke in September which didn't exactly help his Altzheimers disease. She also remembered to tell me that her younger sister was divorced a couple of years ago which left me rather gobsmacked, I had no idea. You can tell that we don't exactly keep in touch except for appropriate greetings cards.
A belated Happy Halloween to everyone! There were less trick or treaters last night in our neighborhood. Parents around here are rather hesitant to let their kids out on a school night. The usual 50 or more kids we get has trickled down by almost half. Still, it was quite nice to see all the little cuties. The usual bigger or older ones didn't come…find them funny when they get all excited about the treats or tricks.
Gotta go, cleaning day.
I had no trick or treaters at my house :-( but it did mean that I ate 4 mini chocolate bars and have a tonne more waiting for my in the fridge :-) yum yum. Normally we get a large number of children in the local area, but it was pouring down with rain yesterday and I didnt get home until 8.15 as I had to drive back from Cambridge and then go to my book club so I think i missed them.
I did 5,000 words on my NanoWrimo project last night – I am flying ahead and feel quite pleased with myself.
Good evening!
I am looking forward to a quiet day off tomorrow. Work is busy busy busy.
I am all alone again. DS and son have gone to watch the new James Bond film. Daughter and I had a lot of fun. She was telling me the meanings behind some of the HP names, and I remembered a page on……. Gasp…… Mugglenet that lists the origins of all the character names. I have a feeling she will be spending an awful amount of time investigating.
Lady Hawke, that is an extraordinary amount of trick or treaters! It must have cost you a fortune in goodies to give away. Do the escorting adults dress up too? It must have been an exhausting night.
MM, how are you??
Oooooh, well done, Wolfie, both on the word count and the chocolate stash! And I will get back to you soon.
Hello asti no problems about getting back to me. I can wait. I know you're busy :-) I have another friend beta reading for me as well and she came back with a very positive email yesterday. . . obviously at first I was delighted and now I keep analysing it to see if I can drill down and understand whether it was a polite, trying to be nice positive or a real positive. . . .(lemon will be rolling her eyes at this comment and telling me to stop over analysing).
I hope you have a good day off tommorow.
oooh and I just had another mini chocolate bar yum yum yum
Thanks Wolfie, and again, I'm sorry it's taking me so long. And don't over analise!
I have discovered that my stash of left over mini chocolate bars has been diminished considerably by the kids being at home all day. I have gone off my children a bit.
you've gone off your children a bit!!!!!! if they where mine I would have taken them out in the countryside far from the house and made them walk home . . in the rain. That'll teach 'em ;-)
They've attacked the biscuit tin too…………
honestly asti its times like this when you need to take a leaf out of the Dursleys book and use the cupboard under the stairs . . or send them to auntie wolfie for a week because she'll feed them nothing but bread and water
A serious design problem in my house means that what would usually be The Cupboard Under the Stairs is, in fact, the bathroom. With a non functioning toilet, but I suppose that is beside the point!
I'll stick them on a coach tomorrow. And buy more biscuits.
They don't know about the Wagon Wheels in my locker at work though, heehee.
Asti – I went to work today and almost made it through the day without much pain. It was 30 minutes before quitting time when the pain was bad and I needed some Vicodin. I asked for permission to leave and came home to take the Vicodin. I made it most of the day on Ibuprofen only. I have been resting and the Vicodin took care of the pain. So I'm okay. Now I'm sleepy. :(
If I konk out early that is the reason.
LadyHawk I saw the pictures you posted of the feathers for LittleHawke on FaceBook. Nice job!
Yes, ASTI, the accompanying adults were almost all costumed. We have two large temporary Halloween shops in our community, stocked 80% with adult costumes, 10% children's costumes and 10% decorations. There are many of these shops throughout the metropolitan area. Our two sit across the street from each other. The costumes are quite expensive for the quality of what you get. Most are sized in S, M and L. Some are One Size Fits Most. Some are in XL sizes. There are some restricted areas which display crude costuming (very crude costuming). Most of the adult female costumes throughout the shops tend to be "sexy" versions of whatever. I will go in and purchase cosmetics, eyelashes and accessories but I've never been tempted by one of the costumes. I can do better on my own.
We hardly have any candy left. My DS was trying to conserve it to last the night and ended up with a handful of pieces left over. We gave out three enormous, wholesale club size sacks of candy.
We have a cupboard under the stairs but I don't believe it is deep enough for even a small boy to sleep in. It is entered from the tall end instead of the side so they took several good feet off the length. My previous home had a very large cupboard under the stairs. It was the closet in the full service guest bathroom. It was completely large enough to have served as sleeping and living space. There were shelves for linens but there was room for a mattress and allowed us a place to hide during storms as a family.
MM, I'm assuming you are going to try to go tomorrow. Use good judgement and leave again if you are too uncomfortable.
My uncle was transported back to the hospital from the nursing home/rehab facility. The verdict is he has a bladder infection which has made him very ill.
I was looking at the visiting hour regulations for the hospital in which he is staying and noted children under 12 years are only allowed in for 15 minute visits. My daughter had to stay at the hospital with me and her grandparents for hours at a time when she was much, much younger than 12.
The hospital where I am on committee and currently take all my sick people has no posted visiting hours for the private rooms. One may visit 24 hours day and there is no restriction on the number of visitors in the private rooms. The emergency department allows two people in the treatment room with the patient but we regularly have three people in the room when we go. I have to go in with my mother and father and if I am there and my daughter is not in school she is in the treatment area as well. I can't leave a 12 year old in the waiting room alone.
I thought to look at visiting rules in the UK and was a bit surprised to see very limited visiting hours, maybe 90 minutes in the afternoon and another 90 minutes at night. Then, I noticed there were references to wards and realized they were not talking about private rooms. Then, I started reading articles about the controversy of private rooms vs wards/bays.
I have never been in a hospital that had anything other than a private room. I know some hospitals used to have semi private rooms with two beds but I have never been in or visited anyone who was in anything other than a private room. The hospitals around here have nothing but private rooms.
I was interested in the debates between nurses and the research on the pros and cons of private rooms vs wards in terms of patient safety and nursing efficiency, etc. I realize the style of nursing would have to change if one were to convert from one style of hospital to another.
Oh, and a the hospital where I am on committee, parents who are patients may have their small children stay with them, even overnight, if they wish. The mindset is to accommodate the needs and preferences of individual families. If you are in the hospital and have nowhere for your child to be they can stay with you.
I have just caught up. I didn't realize that I hadn't been on for a few days. I have been busy reading until my Kendil started shutting itself off. I didn't know what the problem was. I got on the internet and found someone complaining about the new Kendil Fire Shutting off when the cover is on. Well I knew that I had put my cover on more securely. I took the cover off and put it back on the way it usually was. It quit shutting itself off. I have also put a kleenix between it and the back so it has a little room for air. So far so good.
My daughter had to start over house hunting. The owners of the house she wanted wouldn't accept an offer on the house until they had confirmation her loan was ok. By the time she got the confiration, they took another offer the same day as hers. She has found another house that is close to the schools. It is more money but is a newer house and is in a more populated area. So she will be with me for a few more weeks until the closing.
I am afraid Halloween came and went this year without me realising it. The shows on TV during the day were mostly reruns so I didn't realize it was Halloween until later that night. I had been out and about but just never realized the date. It is a good thing I don't have trick or treaters anymore since I didn't buy any candy at all. I did go out to get some but forgot about getting it so came home without any. Lol
I want to go shoe shopping but I am waiting to see if my check is deposited in the bank on time this month. If it is, then I am going to buy some new dress boots/shoes for this winter. Jen came home with a pair she got from her friend. I liked them so well, that I got on the internet to find a pair. I found them at a couple of stores that I can go to. I want to try them on before I purchase them is why I need to go to a store to get them. Otherwise, I would just buy a pair on line. These were a soft leather and come in a narrow width. I don't need one but I might try to get a purse in the same soft leather and color.
Mistic Willow did not have any problems from the hurricane. She didn't have any wind damage, water damage, and her electric did not go out. I talked to her on Halloween and meant to come on to say something.
When my MIL had her first cataract surgery, it was done under general anesthesia and she stayed in the hospital overnight. She was in a semi-private room. This worked out well, since I was the person who stayed with her. The daughter of her roommate was there, too. It allowed each of us a chance to go get a drink or snack or just a break while the other one watched both women. My MIL did not respond well to general anesthetic, she spent most of the night out of her head and feeling sick. Someone really had to be there to call the nurses, since she was not able to find the call button in her condition. Her second cataract surgery was outpatient under local anesthesia and went much better. ;)
When I had my tonsils out I was 19. Children who were getting the same procedure were in six-bed wards, but because of my age, I was in a semi-private room, but I did not have a roommate. I was in private rooms for both knee replacements. ;)
When my DS had the large polyp removed (along with about 8 or 9 inches of colon), he was in a private room. Unfortunately his room was not in the post-operative wing, it was in the terminal cancer wing. The social worker thought he was in "denial" when he said he would be going home after a couple of days. ;)

Indian Creek's Jaron Todd goes up for a rebound during their Little Ten Conference game against Newark at Somonauk High School on Thursday, January 31, 2013. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
It's been awhile.
"About five years, I think," said an elated Joe Piekarz, who then heaved a big sigh of relief.
The Indian Creek coach couldn't recall the last time his team had beaten Newark. He had just seen his Timberwolves blow an eight-point third-quarter lead, turn the ball over on its first three possessions of overtime but come back to win 58-57 Thursday in their semifinal of the 94th Annual Little Ten Conference Tournament.
The difference was a free throw by 6-foot-9 junior center Garrison Govig with 9.6 seconds remaining.
No wonder Piekarz was saying, "Whew!"
The Norsemen have dominated the Timberwolves in recent years and looked like they'd pull out another nail-biter after freshman Jack Clausel rebounded a miss by Brett Anderson and scored on a putback to beat the regulation buzzer and tie the game 51-all.
Govig's free throw gave him 27 points on the night, but he missed his second attempt, which was rebounded by Anderson who brought the ball up court. The Norsemen struggled to get a shot off and coach Rick Tollefson called timeout from the bench with 1.7 seconds left.
With Govig harassing 6-foot Kenny Hume as he tried to inbound the ball, IC blanketed Anderson, who had a game-high 35 points. Hume found Joe Hughes for an open look just outside the 3-point line near the top of the key but he stumbled and barely beat the buzzer as he threw up a prayer that didn't hit the rim.
"Obviously, our goal was to make somebody other than Anderson take that shot," said Piekarz, whose 13-8 team meets top seed Hinckley-Big Rock (20-3) in tonight's title game (8 p.m.).
The Royals bolted to a 16-2 lead in the opening semifinal against Paw Paw, then held on to claim a 58-47 decision after the Bulldogs cut the deficit to four late in the game.
"I thought the momentum was on our side," said Newark coach Rick Tollefson, whose team falls to 13-9. "Late in the overtime we had a three-point lead and two guys with position on one of their missed shots but (IC's 6-6 junior Garrett Post) grabbed the rebound, gets fouled and makes both free throws and they're right back in it."
Indian Creek (13-8) had led 20-18 after a lethargic first half but built the margin to 31-25 entering the fourth period by feeding it inside to Govig, who scored on seven of eight possessions in one stretch.
"He can put the ball in the basket," said Piekarz. "I have to give credit to our guards for finding him. He's also hit some big free throws late in games for us too. I was happy with the way we maintained our composure."
Senior guard Jaron Todd added 20 points for the Timberwolves.
H-BR 58, Paw Paw 47 – "That first quarter is the best we've ever played," said H-BR coach Bill Sambrookes, whose team jumped to a 16-2 lead to open the game and led 36-24 at the half but had four starters with two fouls each at the break.
"In the second quarter we tried to take that good play and make it even better and started making mistakes. I think we had six turnovers in the second quarter."
Paw Paw, which got 19 points from Justin Wiley and 10 from Zach Lilja, got within four, but H-BR's Mitch Ruh hit a clutch 3-pointer with 6:01 remaining and the Royals held the Bulldogs at bay.
Andrew Klambauer led H-BR with 14 points, Michael Bayler added 12 and Ruh had 11.

CATEGORIES MoviesIf dueling Washington, D.C. destruction films "Olympus Has Fallen" and "White House Down" have proven, the thirst for annihilation of beloved landmarks is stronger than ever. It makes sense, then, that "White House Down" director Roland Emmerich plans on revisiting his previous foray into that genre, telling Entertainment Weekly that he will make two sequels to his 1996 blockbuster "Independence Day."
Emmerich said that the sequels would be set 20 years after the original film, in a parallel universe-style Earth that has rebuilt in the wake of alien attacks that saw the destruction of cities around the globe -- most notably our nation's capital, in the iconic scene where a hovering alien spaceship blows the White House to bits. While Earth has tried to move on, its citizens are also bracing for the aliens' return, since a distress call sent out by the first group of attackers has just reached its target and more aliens are headed toward our planet.
"The humans knew that one day the aliens would come back," Emmerich said. "And they know that the only way you can really travel in space is through wormholes. So for the aliens, it could take two or three weeks, but for us that's 20 or 25 years."
In the mean time, Emmerich said humans have been able to harness some of the aliens' technology.
"We don't know how to duplicate it because it's organically grown technology, but we know how to take an anti-gravity device and put it in a human airplane," he said.
The plan is to end the first sequel on a cliff-hanger to keep audiences on the hook for the second film, and Emmerich said both movies will bring back some characters from the original "Independence Day," while also focusing on a new generation of heroes. Bill Pullman, who played the president, has confirmed his return, although there's no word yet from star Will Smith. Emmerich said that some of the action would center on Smith's stepson from the first film, played by Ross Bagley.
"We've rebuilt," Emmerich said. "But [the aliens] also do different things."

yes! that looks like 5.5!
The route climbs the face right of that overhang and joins the corner up to the GT ledge at the obvious rap tree. Looks like a fun overhang though
Joe, at least in the Swain guidebook, it climbs up this overhang. I did it once ages ago, and it's not that difficult, but it's committing over a ledge. Since then, I've always bypassed this on the face to the right, which is cruiser.
Larry is right, the route goes over the overhang into the corner. A friend of mine was climbing it when one of the FA walked by and confirmed this.
Whatever you do, don't climb the seam that's over there on the left. Trust me on that.
Yesterday I climbed the seam on the left as an experiment and test of my memory. I remembered it as not being so bad. The initial slab is super easy. Then above the ledge once you are on the wall there are good holds for hands and feet but it is (a) awkward to gain the corner, and (b) impossible to protect. Probably a little harder than 5.6 coming in from the left. BTW Williams grades the first pitch as 5.6, not 5.5.
The seam above the ledge is what I meant ... no pro, and ledge-fall!
I guess I misread the grey Williams: "P1: 5.6 PG Scramble to ledge, Then up flakes (crux) and corner to the GT Ledge. (130ft)" I guess this is why it felt so super easy on lead ^^ P2 was much more comitting even as 2nd
Right Julie, you and I are talking about the same thing.
Dear Lord! Get a piece in!!!!
Easier said than done. Good gear in the horizontal where Jason's right hand is. Climbing is easy up to that point but no gear. I am pretty sure the route has you stepping right on to the face well before where Jason is which has a horizontal that takes gear prior to getting the horizontal where Jason is. Regarding the seam to the left I didn't find any gear. Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough.

We had a pretty good snow yesterday and last night so I put it to the test. I couldn't believe how good it plowed! I don't think I even spun a tire. It has it's limitations, but for what it is, it works great. I never put it on before because I didn't think it would work very good, boy was I wrong.

On the second night of a back-to-back against the best of the West following a tough loss to the Raptors, I gave the Cavaliers virtually no chance of competing tonight, let alone winning. But, they did exactly that, it was a star-studded effort for Kyrie Irving, who trumped the duo of Durant and Westbrook with plenty of help from the other four starters to pull off a fourth quarter stunner, capped by a 40-23 run in the fourth that turned a seven-point deficit into a 10-point lead on the way to a 114-104 victory in Oklahoma City.
There were so many highlights late in this one: Alonzo Gee's steal and power thump on a breakaway, Kyrie's out-of-state three point answer, Spencer Hawes's pair of floating left-handed hooks through the lane, Tyler Zeller zipping through the lane on multiple dump-offs, and Tristan Thompson's bounce pass feed on a backdoor to Kyrie that extended the lead from six to nine with under two minutes to play. But, the takeaway from this one is that the Cavaliers did not back down when Oklahoma City hit them in the mouth in the third quarter and looked to pull away. Let's dig into some noteworthy numbers.

Obituary: Faye Herrin Teague
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 30 January 2013 21:26
- Written by Super User
Faye Herrin Teague, 80, of Kure Beach, passed away January 12, 2013 at Lower Cape Fear Hospice LifeCare Center. She was born March 13, 1932 to the late W. T. and Flossie Herrin. She was preceded in death by her son, Philip Norris Teague, sister, Mozelle Stone and brother, Lee Herrin.
Faye is survived by her husband of 61 years, Norris Teague, daughter and son-in-law, Melanie Teague and Michael Affemann, son and daughter-in-law, Gary and Julie Teague, grandchildren, Tatiana and Alexei Affemann and Brandon and Austin Teague. Sisters, Betty (Frank) Hinshaw, Doris Brown, Carol (Ronald) Lee and Brenda (Reggie) Goodwin and brother, David (Dawn) Herrin, Sister-in-law Auguste Herrin, Brother-in-law Berkley Stone and numerous loving nieces and nephews. Heidi Baldwin and Connie Matthews were her loving and dedicated care givers for the last three years.
Until her health declined, Faye was an integral part of the annual Island of Lights, board member on the Pleasure Island Chamber of Commerce, the Merchant's Association and the Community Center, served on the Convention-Tourism Bureau and was involved with the Garden Club. In 2004, she was presented the Kure Beach Community Spirit and the Lifetime Contributions Award.
Faye had a reputation for "doing for others". She always put everyone else's needs ahead of her own. She and Norris owned the Sand Castle Inn motel at Kure Beach for more than 30 years. During those years, on more than one occasion, Faye allowed those less fortunate to stay at the motel for no charge. The family and those who cleaned the motel rooms looked forward to Sunday lunches. As soon as the work was completed, a wonderful lunch of roast beef, mashed potatoes and banana pudding was waiting, prepared of course, by Faye.
Everyone who knew Faye knew of her love for everything Christmas. Family and friends often joked that she had more Christmas decorations than most Christmas stores. The Island of Lights Open House tour took her weeks to prepare for, but nothing made her happier than to have everyone enjoy seeing her numerous collectibles and Christmas decorations. For many years, Faye hosted a Christmas party which would involve having the entire motel filled with out of town family members
She was the oldest of eight children and was the family Matriarch. She was the heart of the family.
All of her siblings would call her to talk and share what was happening in their lives. Faye always took time to listen, no matter how busy she might have been.
During the 'off season' when business was slow, Faye loved to travel. She enjoyed going on bus tours across the US, but her real love was cruising. She went on numerous cruises with her daughter and grandchildren, and also with her sisters.
Her last cruise was with 14 family members, including Norris, her children and grandchildren, 4 years ago, just as her health was starting to decline.
Special thanks to all those wonderful staff members at Lower Cape Fear Hospice who helped make a sad time much more bearable. Memorials in Faye's honor can be made to Lower Cape Fear Hospice Care Center.
A funeral service was held 2pm Wednesday January 16, 2013 at Andrews Mortuary Valley Chapel. Burial will follow in Greenlawn Memorial Park.
The family received friends from 1pm until 2pm Wednesday January 16, 2013 at Andrews Mortuary Valley Chapel.

Welcome home(s)
For Irfan Keshavjee, Sc'94, life in Kenya as a managing director, philanthropist, and family man is busy and satisfying.
In early 2007, his second child was born and his family moved into a larger home, fitting out the master bedroom with an 8 ft.-by-8 ft. bed so the four of them could lounge around comfortably together on a Sunday morning.
Shortly after, Irfan happened to drive past one of Nairobi's many slums, and it struck him that hundreds of thousands of families live in homes no bigger than his new bed. In slum settlements like the ones in Nairobi, 50 people often share a single toilet, and violent crime and rape are widespread due to lack of security.
"I felt a combination of shame and annoyance, but also a determination to do something about it," says Irfan. "I knew the answer lay in a social enterprise, because I had started up a successful social enterprise in 2000 called Honey Care Africa, which brought more than 10,000 smallholder farmers above the poverty line through beekeeping. It made gut-sense that a similar model could be used to address the housing issues in Kenya."
In 2008, Irfan and his business partner established Karibu Homes. Karibu means "welcome" in Kiswahili — an ideal name for a social enterprise with the mission of bringing the dream of home ownership to very low income families.
"More than 90% of urban Kenyans cannot buy homes - for no other reason than that nobody is building them at the right price or enabling access to mortgages," explains Irfan, who believes Karibu can revolutionize home-ownership prospects for thousands of Kenyans.
Irfan's commitment to social enterprise projects like Karibu was recently recognized by the social enterprise investment body Acumen Fund, which awarded him an East Africa Fellowship for his initiative and dedication.
With talks now underway to acquire a final equity injection, Irfan hopes they can break ground in early 2012, building the first 1,000 Karibu homes with prices starting at US$10,000. These initial homes will be located in an area of Nairobi called Athi River, where large numbers of low-income families live in some of the city's fastest growing slums.
"Once our first buyers move in, we hope to scale up and build 10,000 homes that will house over 50,000 people every year," says Irfan. "The demand for housing in the region is so massive that this project could spread across East Africa, if not the continent."
Irfan would appreciate hearing from fellow alumni who have experience in the affordable housing sector. Please contact him at email@example.com

This album by Atreyu isn't just only full of screaming and loud guitar. The songs are have more melody. Really like the Bon Jovi cover!
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
I liked their first album, but the production could and should have been a lot better. I would really like to see it remastered. GGGarth deffinately brought the best out of Atreyu on this 2004 release. this review is basically on the lyrics, sure i like the music, but in my opinion, this cd would be nothing without the lyrics.
Blood Children – is an alright intro that just leads into the blistering…
Bleeding Mascara – wow. when i heard them open with this song before the album came out, i was in awe. i really love Alex's lyrics. atreyu blends amazing screaming with singing melody. and not to mention the guitar players skills. they play pretty simplistic stuff that comes out amazing.
Right Side of the Bed – i'm not really one for singles, but this was the first single off of the record. the lyrics are pretty good, a standout line for me is, "she'll $#%^ you just for the taste." this kind of became a clap along at shows.
This Flesh A Tomb – is deffinately my favorite song off of the record. i honestly want it played at my wedding. if i had the money, i would hire them to play it. just listen to the lyrics.
You Eclipsed By Me – holy ____. i'm certainly a lyrical person. and these lyrics are amazing. a big eff you to someone in his life. if you love metalcore and don't like this song, i don't really know what to say. the chorus is completely brutal. "did you take me for a fool or are you just to blind to see that every effort made has failed and there is no destroying me."
the Crimson – comes as the second single off the album. i think it's funny how he says robert smith (the cure) lied, boys do cry. i like it because he's not afraid to admit it. men are supposed to be all masculine with no feelings. i hate people who actually act like that. more references to vampire lyrics.
the Remembrance Ballad – is obviously a ballad. very good to hear live. the lyrics sound like a vampire's eulogy.
Interlude – showcases the guitar players talent. there's not much else to say about it.
Corseting – is a complete onslaught with alex's screaming throughout the song. the chorus is ironic how he talked about killing someone but has the descency to use the nicest lace.
Demonology & Heartache – another song with AMAZING lyrics. "if you can pull my wings apart and pin me down under glass until the end of days if it can help you discover that we share the same pain i just hope you write your thesis before your subject is dead no life after death."
My Sanity on a Funeral Pyre – is yet another great track. i love the way he thinks. i'm not sure who writes what song, but alex' and brandon's brains combined made some surely amazing lyrics for this album.
Nevada's Grace – i really like hearing the contrast with the vocals on this song. the lyrics obviously are good in my opinion. the music is pretty simplistic. it tells vulnerability
Five Vicoden & a Shot of Clarity – this is a good closer, not nearly as good as Lip Gloss & Black, obviously. but the lyrics are pretty good, i'm not too fond of how they chose to do the end, it sounded like they were trying to do, "live.love.burn.die" again, but it didn't work out so well. the words they say are good, but it would've sounded better with brandon singing them. kind of like how he did on "Untitled Finale" off of their third album "A Death-grip on Yesterday".
You Give Love a Bad Name – completely re-done, way %$#@ing better. i love it.
overall, i think this album is mostly about the lyrics. the music is good, but when you hear the instrumental version (downloadable on iTUNES) it sounds rather empty. alex's screams, brandon's smooth singing really bring the music to life. the contrast of their vocals makes it even more beautiful. if you want good, really talented guitars you should really check out HIMSA, Darkest Hour, or As I Lay Dying.
i personally wouldn't suggest any of their material past 2006's "A Death-grip.." 2007's Lead Sails, Paper Anchor was depressing to hear that the wrote the music i put in my cd player. mind you, i am a huge Atreyu fan, i heard "Becoming the Bull" before i joined the Marine Corps, i was like, uhhh…please no. I got out of boot camp without hearing anything else, and my ears were sore with disappointment. sure people change, but this change is horrible. I would only suggest a few tracks to DOWNLOAD from the cd. "When Two Becomes One" "Can't Happen Here" "Blow" and their cover of Faith No More's "Epic".
This was the first Atreyu album I ever bought and it is still probably my favorite. It contains some of the most sincere and profound music I have ever listened to. It ranges from quiet and beautiful pieces like "An Interlude" to powerful and emotional stuff like "The Rememberance Ballad". Simply sublime music.
This was the third Atreyu album that I've bought and it might be the best. If you like raging, intense screaming alternated with awesome melodies, then you'll probably like Atreyu. And if you're an already established Atreyu fan, you'll probably love this album. Definitely a worthwile purchase either way. And if you're a metal fan–metalcore especially–then you definitely want to check out Atreyu.
And even if you've never listened to much metal–heck, I had literally never listened to metal except for two Atreyu songs I bought off of iTunes before I bought my first Atreyu CD, and I love it.
So, anyway, The Curse is worth buying. Buy it. Now.
The best song off it is probably The Crimson–totally awesome. Melodies (and screaming) that have you yelling along, amazing lyrics, and everything else done just right.
The songs on this album, I thought, covered a wider range than on Suicide Notes, and were as a whole better than on Deathgrip.
Yeah. Awesome album AND band! Can't wait for their new album to come out! (Not Best of Atreyu, the one they haven't released the name for yet.)
This is probably hands down the best album that I own. It combines everything in a perfect way. Guitar riffs that make me wonder why I even bother playing, lyrics so intimate you're jaw drops, and a perfect blend of screaming and singing. This is the only CD that I listen to in my car on the way to and from work. I don't think it has left my CD player in a month.

You'd have to be very vocal about the diet, and make sure you tell people who will hold you to it. Not a bad idea.
Akash Jayaprakash had been looking for the motivation to lose weight and get fit when an Internet forum he belonged to, SomethingAwful.com, suggested a way. Pick a specific goal, the forum suggested, and if you don't meet it, punish yourself with something awful. Some forum users chose the punishment of posting embarrassing photos.
Jayaprakash, who works at a progressive tech company called SalsaLabs in D.C., chose the punishment of donating to GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
"I thought, 'What would really turn my stomach?' Something I really disagree with," he says. "My bet is to lose 10 pounds within two months, and also run a 5k in October. If not, I have to donate $250 to Romney."
Jayaprakash is a registered Democrat who follows politics closely and says he has long been unhappy with the Romney campaign. He is also a Mormon who doesn't like when people assume he'll support Romney.

Associated Press
Publication: theday.com
Branford (AP) — Branford police have launched an internal affairs investigation into an officer's Facebook postings during an exchange with gun rights activists.
Police told the New Haven Register they're looking at whether Officer Joe Peterson violated any department policies in the exchange with Branford gun rights advocate John Cinque and other people.
The newspaper reports Peterson wrote in an off-duty posting that he would give part of his genitals to "bang down your door and come for your gun."
The comment apparently was in response to a posting by another man, Cameron Smith, who wrote Peterson "would round up Jews and put them in ghettos, if the government told him to."
Peterson is on worker's compensation leave after a police cruiser accident. A phone listing for him wasn't in service Wednesday.

RALEIGH — When Duke cut N.C. State's lead to one point midway through the second half, Wolfpack coach Mark Gottfried called a timeout.
Gottfried challenged his players in the huddle to get a rebound, but that wasn't necessary, according to senior forward Richard Howell.
"Don't worry about it, coach," Howell said during the timeout. "I'll get them all."
With 18 rebounds in the game, and 14 in the second half, Howell nearly did in helping the Wolfpack beat No. 1 Duke 84-76 Saturday.
Howell and forward C.J. Leslie (25 points) powered N.C. State against a short-handed Duke frontcourt.
With forward Ryan Kelly on crutches and his right foot in a walking boot, Duke still started strong on the offensive glass. Mason Plumlee, Josh Hairston and Amile Jefferson combined to give Duke an 11-5 advantage in offensive rebounds in the first half.
Howell finished the first half with six points and four rebounds. He was met in the locker room by Gottfried holding the box score.
"We went over the rebounding statistics and it definitely infuriated me," Howell said. "(Coach) said they were trying to out-tough us."
Howell responded early and often in the second half. He scored the first two baskets of the second half, both on putbacks after offensive rebounds, and had eight points in the first five minutes.
Gottfried said after the game that Howell played a "grown man's game" and Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski called him a "beast." Krzyzewski spoke at length about Howell's game.
"He's one of the most unique players in the country," Krzyzewski said. "He's a kid that every team would want and start and would be so easy to play with.
"He doesn't need the ball long, he plays with amazing maturity and he rebounds the heck out of the ball."
While Howell was having his way under the basket, Leslie and Plumlee were locked up in a game within a game.
Plumlee had 10 points and eight boards in the first half and finished the game with 15 and 11. Leslie finished with 25 and six, with most of his 14 second-half points coming against Plumlee.
There was one second-half sequence where Leslie went for a dunk and Plumlee blocked his shot but Leslie came back on the next possession and drew a foul from Plumlee.
"He came right back at him the next play, that showed a lot of resiliency on his part to just keep attacking the rim," Gottfried said of Leslie.
Leslie, who broke the 20-point barrier for the third time in six games, said he enjoyed the give-and-take with Plumlee.
"Mason is a great player," Leslie said. "Make no mistake, he did a fantastic job, too, but we came out with the victory and that's all you can ask."
It was a measure of atonement for Leslie and Howell against Duke. In last year's game in Durham, both fouled out of State's 78-73 loss.
Leslie lasted 25 minutes, two more than Howell, as State coughed up a 20-point lead. The two forwards combined for 19 points and 16 rebounds in last year's loss.
Both Howell and Leslie played 38 minutes in Saturday's win and combined for 39 points and 24 (of State's 34) rebounds.
"We've said it a hundred times, when Richard has played a lot of minutes, we're a different team," Gottfried said.
