One team from Canada had to make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference. The Ottawa Senators were happy to oblige. The Senators clinched their first postseason berth in two years after defeating the New York Islanders, 5-1, Sunday.
Kyle Turris scored twice for Ottawa, which will attempt to advance past the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2007. More impressively, the Sens did it without captain Daniel Alfredsson, who is suffering from an illness, and Jason Spezza, who was celebrating the birth of his child. Milan Michalek, Nick Foligno and Sergei Gonchar helped fill the void.
Meanwhile, the Islanders have not made the postseason since 2007 and will have to watch from home yet again. The Sens will likely hold the seventh seed, while the Washington Capitals, Buffalo Sabres or Florida Panthers will fill the eighth and final spot in the East.

API Design Tutorial: Pagination
At the Layer 7 API Academy, we've had a few requests from API designers who are seeking strategies for handling large amounts of data in API responses. Pagination is the most common method for addressing this scenario. Pagination, which is very common on the Web, allows API architects to conserve resources, improve response times and optimize the user experience. It's a way of splitting up data into "pages" and is used in just about any API that returns collections of data.
I've released a short video tutorial titled Use Pagination in Web API Design to introduce the ins and outs of the interface. This video provides a crash course explaining pagination and outlining how to use it effectively in the design of Web APIs. I couldn't fit all the implementation considerations I wanted in this six-minute tutorial, so watch out for a follow-up video on the subject.

2.68/5 rDev -18.3%
A- Nice dark amber color with a 1 inch head that stuck around for several minutes then left a nice lacing behind. Appearance was pretty nice.
S- Ester and citrus hop smell. Light nutty, sweet malt in the background; not overpowering by any means
T- Very refreshing taste, however possibly a tough sour. Medium carbonation with a pretty good blast of floral and citrus hop kick that pinches the tongue and lingers nicely
M- Medium body, slightly creamy, decent carbonation
D- Decent Amber, smooth and refreshing. Nothing to exciting.
Overall, so so. Not a bad beer by any means but not really in line with what I typically drink. Unless I'm stuck with no options- most likely won't drink that one again.

2.58/5 rDev -21.3%
made specially for Jimmy Mac's Roadhouse in federal way, washington, by hales ales.
pours a light chestnut brown with little to no head, and a little lacing.
smell is faint, maybe a touch of caramel.
taste is very watery, hops, some nuts, some caramel, and a touch of pine, ends bitter.
overall not much substance, and not much aroma, just not much all together.

4.58/5 rDev +39.6%
This is the house beer for Jimmy Mac's Roadhouse, a cowboy steak joint. Served in a huge mug on draft. Pale chesnut, off-white head with a large bubbled collar that leaves heavy lace. It also goes by Jackalope Amber.
Smell is a big blast of caramel malt but not overly sweet, with light herbal hops.
Taste is much hoppier, very nice, caramel, super tasty, clean, just a really tasty amber.
Moutheel is pretty smooth with a snappy finish and light body.
Drinkability is high, I really enjoyed this beer, the heavy dose of noble hops really went well with the clean caramels, it went down with ease and I wish I had time for another. Cheer's to Hale's, and Jimmy Mac's for commissioning this so I wasn't stuck with some bland lager. This beer really surprised me, one of the best Hale's Ale's I've had to boot. They didn't know the strength but if I had to guess I'd say around 5.3 ABV?

The first day of class gets to everyone-college students included
I was in class with a glazed look on my face when I noticed that the majority of the people around me were taking notes.
I was surprised.
Why? Because the material wasn't from the book or anything, it was the syllabus in PowerPoint form. Nothing to warrant nervous scribbling and incessant note-taking, right?
It was nuts. Everyone around me working feverishly (for nothing, mind you) like little worker ants building their homes. I stopped laughing in my head long enough to be thankful that although I will be walking straight into another one, I am happy that it's only a matter of time before I leave this one.
I wonder what it is that makes students act like that?
Is it school or going to college that makes us feel like we're going to miss something?

American DJ's new GP-250 is a 250W DMX professional gobo projector that casts brilliant, vibrant patterns on walls and other room surfaces. What makes this high-output mood effect especially well suited for professional DJs and emcees is that it utilizes an economical halogen lamp.
The GP-250 comes with five rotating glass gobos, which create beautiful multi-colored patterns with a rich, marble-like texture. The gobos are replaceable, allowing users to substitute customized images, logos, names, etc. to personalize any event.
"The GP-250 is really a versatile effect. You can use it for everything from creating exciting patterns on the dance floor, to projecting the name of a wedding couple or a corporate logo," says Scott Davies, general manager of the American DJ Group of Companies.
The GP-250 includes a Gobo Shake effect. It also features 0-100% dimming and a high-velocity fan. Equipped with four DMX channels, the GP-250 can be operated with any universal DMX controller. Featuring eight built-in programs, it can also be run stand-alone in sound active mode or master-slave in multiples. A convenient Smart Sense feature automatically recognizes whether the unit is in DMX or master-slave mode. When the GP-250 isn't being operated via DMX, American DJ's Mini/C Controller (sold separately) can be used to control blackout.
The GP-250 casts a 20° beam angle. Its gobos are 32mm in diameter, with a viewing area of 27mm. The unit includes a ZB-EHJ/5 long-life 500-hour, 24V 250W halogen lamp. It features multi-voltage operation (100V, 120V, 230V, 240V), so it can be used worldwide. It measures 13"L x 12"W x 9"H, and weighs 22lbs.

4.19/5 rDev +12.3%
Draft at The Pour House in Westmont, NJ.
Pours a hazy, pale golden orange color with tangerine edges and a two finger pillowy white head. Good retention, slowly fading into a lasting ring. The glass is left coated with streaks of soapy lace.
Dank floral hop aroma with a ton of tropical and citrus fruit character along with earthy, grassy pine needle and resinous oils. Some alcohol/boozy sweetness evident in the nose as well but it's dominated by the sweeter fruit notes, with strong hints of grapefruit, tangerine and blood orange.
Medium bodied with a slight creamy texture but still light and easy to drink with a complex hop profile that's nicely balanced by a pale malt backbone. Insanely drinkable even with some alcohol heat/sweetness in finish. Dank, piny bitterness countered by grapefruit, pineapple, orange peel and mango sweetness. Nice malt presence underneath but it doesn't interfere with the juicy hop flavors. Hints of caramel, toffee and biscuit toward the finish. Complex and well balanced with great hop flavor. ABV is nicely masked with only slight heat, making this beer very easy to drink. One of the better IPAs I've had from Victory.

A: Poured from the growler into a Duvel tulip glass. Clear honey-golden with a nice 1-finger foamy white head. Leaves a little lace.
S: Tropical fruits and citrus over honey-based malt.
T: Caramel malt and tropical fruit. Finishes with lemony dry citrus.
M: Medium in heft with a good creamy feel.
O: A good, but not great, DIPA.

Served on-tap at Cork City Pub in Hoboken, NJ
A: Pours a hazy pale orange in color with light amounts of gentle visible carbonation at the surface of the beer and a fair amount of apricot + peach highlights. The beer has a quarter finger tall light beige head that quickly reduces to just a very thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light to moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate aromas of overripe citrus/grapefruit hops along with lighter aromas of herbal hops, pine hops, and just a touch of bready malts.
T: Upfront there is a moderate biscuit/bready malt flavor with moderate to strong flavors of overripe citrus/grapefruit/tangerine and hints of herbal/floral hops. Light amounts of bitterness that fade quickly.
M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Light amounts of dryness in the finish.
O: Overall, there is something not quite right about the flavor of this brew but I just cannot put my finger on exactly what it is - possibly a strange combination of hop aromas/flavors. Otherwise this is a pretty pedestrian offering from Victory whom I expect a little more from.

Delicious new offering from Victory.
The body is a surprising golden hue, with just a touch of haziness to it. Decent lacing is left behind by a fluffy white head.
The smell is restrained, not quite jumping out from the glass, but nice. Slight sweetness of malt underscores pine and a touch of grapefruit citrus.
The taste is nicely balanced between sweet malt and mildly assertive hop bitterness. My guess is wheat, and this is reflected in a rather full mouthfeel for the style. Alcohol is well hidden, and the hops come across as piney and citrusy with a rounder tropical, fruity finish.
All in all, a winner in my book, but not anything that's going to rewrite the history books.

Served on-tap in a short 10oz mini-imperial glass at Beer Run (Charlottesville, VA).
A: Honey-gold with short cap of off-white tightly bubbled head with decent retention and a few legs of lacing.
S: Good aroma but just above-average with pine, resin, and grapefruit aromas. Classic aroma. The maltiness is pretty one-dimensional with some light crystal and mid-range breadiness.
T: The flavor is fine but not much more can be said as it is pretty generic and underpowered overall. The pone, grapefruit, floral, and resiny characteristics are nice but don't provide much anything unique. THe maltiness is slightly sweeter than in the nose but provides good heft.
M: Reasonably dry and drinkable with moderate carbonation.
O: Good but uninspired.

The high-energy activities under Xtreme Adventures Family Fun Center's roof instigate rushes of adrenaline in technicolor environs. In the multileveled, 6,000-square-foot laser-tag arena, teams of combatants track down their opponents as they navigate serpentine passageways, duck around forest plants, and circumvent digital quicksand. Padded Crazy Cars spin 360 degrees as drivers ricochet around the rink, while on the trampolines lining the walls and floor of the Xtreme Jump pit, visitors of all ages traverse its elastic expanses in leaps and bounds. After their adventures, they can sample snacks from the Xtreme Cafe & Bar, including pizza, sandwiches, and wings.
The BlueMountain Activities team makes sure each guest can have fun out on the water, whether it's frozen solid or shimmering in the summer sun. During the winter, customers can rent ice-fishing huts and explore the snow-covered trails on snowshoes or snowmobiles either on their own or with guides skilled at warding off the forest's wild plows. Conversely, in the warmer months, BlueMountain rents out wave runners and party barges for sunlit cruises on the Georgian Bay.
Go-karts zoom around a tire-lined track at Blue Mountain Go Karts, but the family-fun centre—which has been a Collingwood staple since 1964—offers a lot more than high-octane rides. Its outdoor grounds encompass batting cages, a full mini-golf course, and a 100-foot slide that was once used to train penguins for the winter games. Junior carts are available for children ages 5-10 on a designated junior track. And picnic tables make the perfect place for lunch.
Golfers could spend a whole day at Brooklea Golf & Country Club without hitting the same shot twice. With 27 holes of tee-to-green terrain and a practice facility with a 300-yard driving range, a 6,000-square-foot chipping and putting green, and a short-game area with practice bunker, the complex gives golfers the chance to work on all facets of their game. As the course's grassy centerpiece, the 18-hole championship course unrolls 6,587 yards of tree-lined fairways and fast, bent-grass greens pinched by the occasional water hazard or bunker filled with silica sand. Measuring 1,750 yards, the 9-hole West course packs four par 4s and five par 3s into an abbreviated layout so players can conveniently squeeze a quick round into their schedule without drilling holes into their office floors. Head teaching professional Daryl Cramm helms the Brooklea Golf & Country Club academy, where students of all ages and abilities hone their par-hunting skills.
Championship Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Length of 6,587 yards from the farthest tees * Four tee options * Scorecard

Impressed with Ventura overall, although now showing a few rough edges to common areas. Balcony Stateroom was excellent in terms of quality and comfort.
Sharon our steward was also very good and we got to know her quite well.
Appears to be more bars, clubs, venues on board in comparison to say Celebrity Eclipse. Very good onboard drinks prices and like the fact prices are GBP without added tax etc.
Overall v good entertainment - Headliners brilliant + Freddy Mercury tribute + Fogwell Flax as Sting +. Rest much of a muchness but still above working mens club standard.
We chose freedom dining which was a great choice whether you wanted to share tables or be on a 2. We used White Room to celebrate wife's birthday....excellent. Also used Ramblas which was good but menu options a bit restrictive. Food quality and choice in main dining room very good but you had to be careful about combinations as sometimes you didn't get what you expected.
Buffet breakfasts and lunch OK so slong as you could work out which restaurant was open when. Bit a bun fight due to high volume of diners on occasions especially port days..not to be unexpected.
Biggest criticism was with passengers adopting typical sunshine/hotel mentality of sunbed booking at ridiculous times of the day. I'll swear towels were out at the crack of dawn on sea days with nobody in site other than a towel and a book. Hence not enough sunbeds or a quicker turnround of beds. By the end of the cruise you could see more and more passengers getting frustrated.
Overall, brilliant experience and would have no hesitation on sailing with PO again

Thread: Prize pick ups
Prize pick ups
[size=13pt]Ten top-of-the-line NFL transplants[/size]
By Dan Arkush
...a breakdown of the best personnel moves via trade and free agency that have been made this offseason. What follows is one veteran gridiron chronicler's ranking of the top 10 pickups via free agency or trade:
1) DE Jared Allen / Vikings  A former rabble-rouser who appears to have cleaned up his act off the field, Allen has what it takes to be an absolute terror off the right edge for a Minnesota team with suddenly very legitimate title aspirations in the NFC North. A 6-6, 270-pound Energizer Bunny who is seldom on the ground, Allen registered 15½ sacks in only 14 games last year for the Chiefs. With Allen sharing space this coming season on a line with arguably the league's most dynamic DT duo in Kevin and Pat Williams, a 20-sack season doesn't seem like too big a stretch.
7) FS Madieu Williams / Vikings  Before Madieu bid adieu in Cincinnati, he had established himself as a solid run defender and a very capable center fielder. Just like his new teammate Allen, who figures to benefit greatly from Minnesota's other "Williams Boys," he should coexist quite comfortably with veteran SS Darren Sharper in a greatly improved Vikings secondary.

Kokomo Tribune
---- — You know, I really hate the speed limit on Interstate 65, so instead of going 70 mph, I plan to go 95 mph.
And if Mr. Trooper, Sir, stops me, I think I'll get some of my friends and we'll block all the lanes and shoulders until they raise the speed limit.
There were two profoundly intertwined stories last week — the shutdown of the federal government and the launching of Obamacare.
In Washington, the Republican hatred of the Affordable Care Act has become so intense lawmakers like Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas and Rep. Marlin Stutzman of Indiana were willing to put this nation on the path of a shutdown and default.
The reason can be summed up on the Real Clear Politics website, which lists 243 polls taken on Obamacare since its passage and 95 percent of those polls (231 of 243) have shown the American people oppose the ACA.
But it's more nuanced than that. Ball State's Bowen Center and other polls have broken out components of the ACA — such as whether people with pre-existing conditions should be able to get health insurance — and the support rises, often into the 60th percentile and beyond.
The two polls that really mattered occurred in November 2010 and November 2012, when citizens went to the ballot box. In 2010, Republicans retook the House, picking up 66 seats. Two years later, President Obama was re-elected and with that, Obamacare was pretty much a reality until Jan. 21, 2017.
Reinforcing this was what happened in the U.S. Senate. Populist tea party candidates who won U.S. Senate nominations in low-turnout primaries essentially propelled safe or heavily leaning Republican seats in Indiana, Delaware, Colorado, Missouri, Nevada and Maine into the Democratic column. What could have easily been a 51-49 Republican Senate majority last November became a 55-45 Democratic one. Joe Donnelly, who voted for the ACA, is now Indiana's Democratic senator.
As I sat down to write this column, Stutzman uttered one of the most incredible quotes: "We're not going to be disrespected," he told the Washington Examiner. "We have to get something out of this. And I don't know what that even is."
Indiana's congressional Republicans were still drawing their paychecks at this writing, while hundreds of thousands of federal workers are furloughed.
There were never enough votes to sustain this insurrection.
In a week, the real danger arises over whether the U.S. debt ceiling is raised. This is a quantum elevation of the stakes because the planet's financial system foundation rests with U.S. Treasury bonds, where investment finds security. In a default, the safety of these bonds will be eroded. It would dwarf the Lehman Brothers collapse of 2008, with many of us still feeling that impact. A default could find the financial foundation relocated to Shanghai.
So Stutzman's notion of "we have to get something out of this" and he doesn't know what that is should get your alarm bells clanging.
The other story is the Obamacare launch.
What we witnessed last week were federal health exchanges getting such heavy volume the Web servers were overwhelmed. Most Americans don't know how to navigate this system, and the computer glitches only exacerbate this.
Normally in this type of situation, our public servants are there to help.
But this is Indiana.
While states like Maryland, according to Gannett News Service, are spending $24 million to help citizens navigate this process, Indiana allocated $2 million. Republicans from Gov. Pence, through the General Assembly and the congressional delegation appear content to sit on their hands and let folks struggle. Why? Because if the system fails, they hope the ACA collapses. The more folks getting on the exchanges means success is more likely.
On the IN.gov website and its health reform portal, Hoosiers going through the frequently asked questions found propaganda — the controversial Indiana Department of Insurance analysis that insurance rates are going to go up 72 percent with the average Hoosier paying $570 a month. This was a gross simplification of all the data, rounded off into one very troubling number.
State Rep. Ed Clere, the New Albany Republican who chairs the House Public Health Committee, told my colleague Maureen Hayden of CNHI, "It's a high visibility issue with mass confusion. Everybody's heard of Obamacare. Everbody knows something big is going on. What they don't know are the details."
Clere was at a town hall in Indianapolis last Monday as the fight in Congress over the ACA was shutting down the federal government. He found people seeking help.
"It shows the divide between the political elite and the people who most need access to insurance," he said. "People want solutions, not pointless partisanship. There are plenty of reasons to question the design and sustainability of the ACA, but those are debates for another day. Whether we like it or not, it's the law, and as state policymakers, we should focus on getting the best possible deal for Indiana."
Folks, we are in a new era of public service and, quite frankly, it has stooped to a new, low, disgusting level.

The Green Bay Packers have won the coin toss in Super Bowl XLV. As the visiting team, the Pittsburgh Steelers had the call (the AFC and NFC alternate home team roles each year), and James Farrior called tails, but the coin came up heads.
This means that NFC has now won 14 straight coin flips (but they are just 3-10 in the previous 13 games). In 44 games, the coin has come up heads 24 times, tails 21. The NFC has won the toss a total of 31 times, the AFC 14.
The special ceremonial coin was introduced by referee Walt Anderson and then was officially tossed by Deion Sanders, a member of the 2011 NFL Hall of Fame class, which was announced on Saturday. Sanders was joined by some of Canton's newest members at midfield: Shannon Sharpe, Marshall Faulk, Chris Hanburger, Richard Dent and Steve Sabol, son of NFL Films' founder and 2011 enshrinee Ed Sabol.
But maybe it's not such a good thing the Packers won the toss -- of the 44 Super Bowls, the team that won the coin toss has won the game 21 times, and lost 23 (.477 winning percentage). The team that has won the toss has also lost 10 of the last 14 -- though, the New Orleans Saints bucked that trend in Super Bowl XLIV, when they won both the coin toss and the game. Two years ago, the Arizona Cardinals won the coin toss and became the first team to defer, but they went on to lose to the Steelers.

text: 5 Must-Have Newborn Items by babysugar 12/02/09 2 Reactions 0 Shares Print 0 0 0 0 0 It wasn't until I had my second baby that I realized how easy I had it with my first child. They are equally adorable and sweet, but one is not like the other. My first born slept through the night nearly immediately, never had diaper rash, hit all of her developmental milestones either on time or early. My son is giving me a run for my money and teaching me new tricks along the way. Check out five items I have found on my second trip into parenthood. Aveeno Baby Soothing Relief Moisture Cream What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Common in wee ones, my lil guy has eczema. I tried many standard solutions but it was the Aveeno Baby Soothing Relief Moisture Cream ($6) that helped to heal my guy's skin problem. The crooks of his knees and once itchy chest are now free of redness and feel much softer to the touch. 1 / 5 Sound Machine What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We tiptoed around my first born. Try implementing that process with a 2-year-old around the house — not gonna happen. I invested (wisely) in a $39 sound machine that keeps my son snoozing through just about any excitement in the house. The size and shape make it easy to pack and travel, too! 2 / 5 Smartipants Cloth Diapers What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I am still a disposable diaper fan but these cloth diapers from Smartipants ($15) might just make a believer out of me, especially when mommy starts to get the poop schedule down. The cute bun covers have an insert, which allows for quick and easy changes and makes washing them a bit, well, smarter. Also part of the genius, the snaps make the diapers adjustable so they can grow with the baby into toddlerhood. 3 / 5 Moby Wrap What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 With all of the baby carriers on the market, I stuck to my Baby Bjorn. While it is easy enough to manage, it sometimes leaves my back begging for a break. The Moby Wrap ($40) gives babe comfort and allows mommy's body to relax with it. Perfect for the newborn stage and for babies who want to be held all the time, the Moby may require a few trial wraps before mama gives it a go. After that she'll be a pro at cocooning her babe. 4 / 5 Triple Paste Medicated Ointment What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When baby's got a raw, red bum, mommy will buy and try just about anything to stop the pain. Having experienced diaper rash for the first time, my common creams were not doing the trick. On the advice of other mum friends, I bought Triple Paste Medicated Ointment ($26) and was shocked at the quick results. After a few applications, my boy's bottom was back to its peachy perfect self. 6 / 5 0 0 0 0 0 Read More Baby GearListBabyShopping Baby How to Sanitize and Store Your Baby Stuff For Round Two 1 day ago The Rarely Heard Dad's Tale of Breast vs. Bottle 2 days ago Prepare Yourself!

Newman's latest idea is the ReviewerCard. For $100, customers get a black card that says: "ReviewerCard: I write reviews."
Not everyone can get it, explained Newman. Applicants are apparently screened to limit cardholders to reliable, prolific reviewers.
Just flash the card at any store or business, and it's supposed to open new worlds of above-and-beyond customer service.
Newman claimed that his card is "not hurting anyone."
Except, of course, for Yelp users reading reviews written by people using it for their own personal gain. Or businesses who get a negative review because the cardholder didn't get special treatment. Or the other customers who don't get the same treatment as the person issuing the thinly veiled threat of a bad review.
Newman told the Times that "it's a way to get the service you deserve." But he also related the time he went into a Geneva hotel, showed his card to the clerk at the desk and asked for 50 percent off, saying that he'd write a positive review on TripAdvisor. It apparently worked.
Newman said that when he writes a review, he doesn't disclose that he used his status to get preferential treatment.
"This is, of course, wrong on many levels and is an example of how the culture of amateurism that was once one of the Internet's more endearing qualities has become a free-for-all unburdened by any thought of ethics or moral integrity," wrote Lazarus.
It "takes extorting restaurants to a new level," flashed a headline on Eater.
But the practice is apparently legal, as long as the person doesn't make any explicit threats, according to lawyers. Thus, showing a ReviewerCard likely won't attract any legal attention.

TALLAHASSEE -- The Miami Hurricanes went into the state capital Wednesday night looking to end one streak and extend another. They did both.
Led by Shane Larkins 22 points, No. 3 Miami snapped a six-game losing streak at Tucker Center while winning its 12th game in a row with a 74-68 victory over Florida State.
That was a heck of a college basketball game. It wasnt decided until the very last 10 seconds, Miami coach Jim Larranaga said. We were fortunate enough to win.
With the win, Miami became the first team to start 11-0 in the Atlantic Coast Conference in 12 years. North Carolina was the last team to start its ACC schedule at 11-0 a dozen years ago.
FSU got off to a hot start, opening up on a 13-2 run that gave Seminoles fans an early reason to hope for an upset. But the quick lead was more a product of Miamis slow start than FSUs elevated level of play.
The Hurricanes quickly snapped to attention, led by senior center Reggie Johnson (14 points, eight rebounds), and reeled off a 25-5 run to take control of the game.
Reggie really delivered. We were behind, he helped us come back, Larranaga said. I really thought Reggie was the difference.
After having success in the paint during the opening minutes, the Hurricanes (20-3, 11-0) relegated FSU (13-11, 5-6) to shooting mid- and long-range jump shots for the rest of the first half.
Miami, meanwhile, shot 73.9 percent in the opening half, outrebounded the Seminoles 12-7 and despite FSUs early run easily headed into the locker room with a 38-30 lead.
FSU didnt go quietly in the second half, though.
Using an offensive outburst from Terry Whisnant, the Seminoles clawed their way back into the game behind back-to-back three pointers from the sophomore guard. Whisnant followed up with a couple free throws before junior forward Okaro White tipped in the tying basket with 10 minutes remaining to even the score at 51. White led FSU with 15 points.
But Miamis offense quickly got back to work behind Larkin, who scored 13 of his 22 points in the final 71/2 minutes. After retaking a 61-55 lead, Larkin hit a couple of layups before drilling a three-pointer with just over four minutes left to give Miami its biggest lead of the night.
My teammates, man, they just set great screens for me, Larkin said. Reggie [Johnson] set multiple great screens up top and got me open, and I just knocked down the shot. Thats the easy part.
FSU mounted one last-ditch effort to get back into the game.
Ian Miller hit back-to-back runners to cut the Hurricane lead to five with just two minutes remaining. Minutes later, after trading turnovers, FSU freshman guard Devon Bookert hit a layup and the subsequent free throw to cut the deficit to three.
But it wasnt enough.
Miller had a chance to tie with 20 seconds remaining but his three-pointer rimmed out, sealing the game for the Hurricanes.
Were playing great basketball right now, but on any given night anyone can come out and give you a great test like Florida State did [Wednesday night], Larkin said. Were definitely not unstoppable. Weve got to come out focused every night and play with great energy.

Cherry Jones, Zachary Quinto and Celia Keenan-Bolger Star in The Glass Menagerie, Opening at A.R.T. Feb. 6
By Adam Hetrick
Tony Award-winning Once director John Tiffany's new production of Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie — which the director places over a glimmering black pool — officially opens Feb. 6 at the American Repertory Theater. Tony Award winner Cherry Jones stars as smothering mother Amanda Wingfield.
Williams' poignant 1945 memory play about an overbearing mother and her fragile daughter, a relationship inspired by his own mother and sister, began previews Feb. 2 and will run through March 17 in Cambridge, MA.
In addition to staging Once, Tiffany is also the director of the acclaimed National Theatre of Scotland production of Black Watch. He will helm Alan Cumming's one-man Macbeth on Broadway this spring.
Jones earned Tony Awards for The Heiress and Doubt. The cast also featurez Zachary Quinto (Angels in America, "Star Trek") as narrator son Tom, Celia Keenan-Bolger (Peter and the Starcatcher, Spelling Bee) as sister Laura and Brian J. Smith (The Columnist, Come Back Little Sheba) as the Gentleman Caller.
"She is a heroine," Jones said, describing the character of faded belle Amanda in a recent Playbill magazine feature. "I never thought of her before as a heroine, but she absolutely is. She was left by her husband around 1920 and has had to survive the next 15 years or so with little children growing up, with no support, out of her element. What in the world did she do?"
Read the full interview with Jones here.
The Glass Menagerie reunites Tiffany's Tony Award-winning Once creative team. It has scenic and costume design by Bob Crowley, lighting design by Natasha Katz and sound design by Clive Goodwin.
For the new staging, Tiffany and designer Crowley have created a series of platforms depicting the Wingfield apartment, which appear to float over a pool of black liquid.
According to A.R.T., "The Glass Menagerie is Tennessee Williams' poetic masterpiece, anchored by the aging southern belle Amanda Wingfield, who hopes for her son Tom to fulfill her dreams of finding the perfect 'gentleman caller' for her shy and damaged daughter Laura."
For tickets visit AmericanRepertoryTheater. A.R.T. is located at 64 Brattle Street in Cambridge, MA.

Questions & Answers
"Does the pull out shelf function at the different heights?" asked by Kate
Buhl Flat Panel AV Cart with Locking Cabinet
Hell to put together
Ragabash from Ottawa, ON
I have bought two of these av carts now. I have never seen a product that is so hard to get together. When they arrived it was certain that the metal had seen better days, my business partner and I had to beat kinks out of the metal to flatten it. Some pieces were so bad that we had to send them to the person that restored our cars to have him reweld the metal so it was straight and hit it with paint. I do not recommend this item to anyone that is not very good with assembly. It requires a good sense of structual design and sometimes the need to have a professional available to repairs some of the pieces. In the end however my clients were pleased with the finished product. The fact remains that these companies charge way to much for a few pieces of metal and a couple of screws. This is the cheapest item I have found in my search to provide a business with a cost effective cart. The next ones up or that are local, cost around 1700$ and that is just to much for something like this ( I guess they think they made them out of gold ).
I would reconsider buying this
Dave from Chester, NJ– Verified Buyer
I was very disappointed with this purchase. The directions for assembly are horrendous. As I was in the process of assembling it, there were holes that didn't line up properly. I was using a drill and hammer among other things. One of the cabinet edges was far from smooth, a flimsy metal holder that keeps the door in place broke after two door openings, etc. etc. I would have sent it back but I had to have it up and running for a presentation the next day.
Great cart, but a nightmare to assemble
Courtney the Admin from Fairbanks, Alaska– Verified Buyer
I can usually put together basic office things such as an A/V cart, but this one required so many different tools that I had to call Facilities Services to have it assembled.The directions were absolutely AWFUL; I had parts that were not listed on the parts list, but were included in the directions. Sorry; I purchased the cart last spring before going off-contract for the summer and cannot remember what all of the issues were with assembly. But I do remember being extremely frustrated with the poor instructions [...]. Now that the cart has been assembled, I am very pleased with it and believe it will meet our expectations.
Works out decently
Joe from Castle Rock, CO– Verified Buyer
The assembly was not the easiest, it took quite a few hours and the directions were pretty uninformative. I had to wing it as far as what screws go where. They had a chart, but it was really no help in correlation with the directions. Once assembled it does the job and it looks decent.

The key in politics is to snatch victory from the jaws of victory.
The senseless government shutdown has led to a rout of the tea party, right-wing extremism and a Republican leadership that was cowed into a march toward oblivion. But a great deal hangs on what happens next. Will this be a watershed moment? Or do we return to the same dreary politics we were having before this sorry episode?
What needs to happen is a sharp course correction — from an agenda championed by the forces that were beaten in the last election to an engagement with the problems our nation must solve.
It would be an utter waste to revisit the obsessions of 2011 and the presumption that budget cutting and deficit reduction should be the sole priorities of the political class. Recall that Rep. Paul Ryan was the other member of the Republican ticket that lost last year. Ryan's proposal to slash spending played an central role in Mitt Romney's defeat.
The United States should build, not just cut. We should invest again in an infrastructure whose decayed condition ought to shame us. We should deal with high ongoing unemployment, reverse the rise of inequality and give poor and working-class kids real opportunities for upward mobility.
Future negotiations must be premised on getting rid of sequester cuts that are hobbling our economy. And talk of changes in Social Security and Medicare need to take into account not only their long-term costs — which require, above all, further fixes to our health care system — but also how these programs may be inadequate for a generation whose members will not enjoy the pensions their grandfathers had. "Reform of entitlements" has to mean more than scaling them back.
Before history is rewritten, it's important to understand that the American people really did blame this mess on the GOP and really did revolt against the tea party's irrationality. The public's reaction was not "a plague on both your houses," even if the shenanigans made Congress as a whole look very bad.

Kids who grow up on white bread, frequent fast-food meals and plentiful sweets are not going to be thrilled by school lunches featuring whole wheat bread, salads and fruit.
And that is the crux of a problem that has some schools dropping the $11 billion National School Lunch Program.
It's not a mass exodus, by any means, but some schools around the country have opted out of the money-injecting federal program because, they say, kids weren't eating the new foods that it requires cafeterias to serve.
Officials in one such district, in Catlin, Ill., told the Associated Press that they saw a 10 to 12 percent drop in lunch purchases, amounting to $30,000, last year. Closer to us, the Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake and Voorheesville school districts both reported losses. They say students complained about the healthier food choices and that fruit was being dumped without being touched.
The new U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines come in reaction to the childhood-obesity epidemic in the United States and other health concerns. The comfort-food lunches that were served in school cafeterias for years — think meatloaf with gravy, buttered corn, white rolls and frosted cake, for example — were loaded with calories, sodium and starches.
You can't blame the schools. That was what families were eating at home, it was what the government food programs supplied, and it could be produced in mass quantities at a reasonable cost.
But it wasn't doing kids' bodies, hearts and minds much good. We all know that a better nutrient balance, less sugar and sodium, reasonable portions and less processed food are what people should be consuming.
It is healthier for adults and, in a way, even more important for children because they are learning eating habits that will determine their longevity — and America's future health-care costs.

From SLU Athletics
HAMMOND – After winning its first conference championship since 1961, setting a single-season school record for victories and advancing to the national quarterfinals in its first ever playoff appearance, the Southeastern Louisiana football team was well represented on the Louisiana Sports Writers Association All-Louisiana College Football Teams, which were announced by the LSWA on Wednesday.
The Lions claimed three of the top five individual awards. Junior quarterback Bryan Bennett was named the state's Offensive Player of the Year and Newcomer of the Year. In addition, second-year Lion head coach Ron Roberts was named the Louisiana Coach of the Year.
The Southland Conference champions put nine players on the All-Louisiana team, second only to LSU's 11 all-state selections. Bennett was joined on the first team by senior linebacker Cqulin Hubert and sophomore defensive back Harlan Miller.
Representing the Lions on the second team were senior left tackle Gasten Gabriel, senior center Marshall Paris, junior tight end Jeremy Meyers, junior defensive end Jacob Newman, sophomore running back/kick returner Xavier Roberson and senior kicker Seth Sebastian.
Bennett, a native of Granada Hills, Calif., added to his list of honors that included Southland Conference Player of the Year and first team All-Southland accolades. In his first year in Hammond, Bennett threw for 3,165 yards and 21 touchdowns, while also rushing for a team-high 1,046 yards and a single-season school record 16 touchdowns.
Roberts claimed his third coach of the year award. After leading the Lions to an 11-3 record and a No. 4 national seed, Roberts previously earned Southland Conference and AFCA Region 5 Coach of the Year accolades.
Hubert, who hails from Houston, adds another honor to a growing list, as the leader of a Lion defense that led the league in scoring and total defense. The Southland Conference Defensive Player of the Year and first team All-Southland choice led the Lions with 90 tackles and two blocked kicks to go with 11 tackles for loss and four sacks. Hubert previously earned All-America honors from the Sports Network and the AFCA.
Rounding out the first team Southeastern contingent was Miller, who was previously named first team All-Southland Conference. The Kentwood product led the team with four interceptions and 10 pass breakups to go with 45 tackles.
Gabriel and Paris, the leaders of an offensive line that cleared the way for a Lion offense that posted 38.4 points and 483.3 yards per contest, were both second team all-state honorees. The pair adds honors to their respective first team All-Southland accolades.
Meyers earned All-Louisiana honors for the second straight season to go with his consecutive All-Southland nods. The Baton Rouge native was fourth on the team with 15 receptions for 255 yards and a touchdown.
Newman also represented on the All-Louisiana squad. The second team All-Southland selection from Visalia, Calif. teamed with junior linebacker Isiah Corbett to give the Lions a prolific pass rushing tandem. Newman was second on the team with 14 tackles for loss and seven sacks.
Southeastern's most decorated players in terms of post season honors were Roberson and Sebastian, both of whom were second team all-state selections. Roberson, who led the nation and set single-season school records with 35.2 yards per kickoff return and three kickoff returns for touchdowns, was a first team all-conference selection at kick returner and all-purpose player. The Atlanta native, who has already set the Southland Conference career record with five kickoff return touchdowns, was chosen as an All-American by the FCS ADA, Walter Camp Foundation, the Associated Press and the Sports Network.
Sebastian adds to a list of accolades that includes All-American honors from the FCS ADA, the AP and College Football Performance Awards and first team All-Southland honors. The Lafayette native was 16-for-18 on field goals and 66-of-67 on point after touchdowns, setting single season records for PAT's made, PAT's attempted, points (114) and field goal percentage (88.9). The four-year starter finished his career as the school's leader with 289 career points.
Joining Bennett and Roberts among the state individual honorees were Tulane sophomore defensive back Lorenzo Doss and Louisiana-Lafayette freshman running back Elijah McGuire. Doss was named the Defensive Player of the Year, while McGuire was tabbed the state's top freshman.
The team was selected based on original nominations from the media relations personnel at the football playing schools in the state of Louisiana. A committee of LSWA members voted for both first and second team selections. Media members could vote for anyone on the ballot while sports information voters could not vote for their own players and had to complete a ballot for their players to be eligible under LSWA rules.

A fugitive charged with child abduction out of California was extradited from DeKalb County to San Diego, California after three months in jail.
Tammy Cherie Rief, 45, was arrested by U.S. Marshals at a business in Ider on April 3 and booked into the DeKalb County Jail. She was wanted on a warrant from San Diego, California for child abduction.
According to published reports, Rief kidnapped her own son, moved across the country, changed their names and was later caught in North Carolina.
Investigators said Rief skipped bond in North Carolina in 2011 and fled to Alabama. The DeKalb County Court did not set a bond for Rief because of the flight risk.
Investigators with the San Diego County District Attorney's Office transported Rief from DeKalb County back to California on Monday.

The Cape Coral Police Department has released surveillance images of a man who is accused of purchasing items with a stolen credit card.
According to the police
report, the man broke into a vacation rental - just one day after unsuspecting
vacationers moved in - and stole the credit cards.
He charged several
hundred dollars at a Cape Coral
gas station before the victims realized the credit cards were stolen.
"It's a byproduct of a residential burglary that's the larger issue here and of that people will do secondary criminal activity using stolen checks or credit cards," said Lt. Tony Sizemore, with the Cape Coral Police Department.
The man is a white male wearing a dark colored hat and has the street name "Paesan."
Police say he frequents the area of Coral Parkway near Coronado Parkway, Tower Drive and Miramar Street.
"Fortunately for us, the credit cards were used at a couple of locations," said Sizemore.
Police believe he drives an older 4-door blue vehicle.
If you have any information, please contact the Cape Coral Police Department at (239) 574-3223.
Or text a tip to "CCPD + Your message" to 274637 (CRIMES).

The Gloucester Daily Times aims to be accurate. If you are aware of a factual error in a story, please call Times Editor Ray Lamont at 978-283-7000, x3438.
An editorial that appeared in Monday's Times incorrectly indicated that Manchester Essex school surveillance footage showed that student Gabriel Lambert spent an hour in the bathroom where a pair of threats were reportedy found.
That is not the case. In fact, surveilance footage tracked Lambert in several areas of the school for an hour, including a limited amount of time entering and exiting the rest room in question, but did not indicate that he spent an hour in the room.
