---- — BRENTWOOD — A Manchester man charged with leading police on a two-state chase following burglaries in Salem and Atkinson is free after receiving suspended prison sentences.
Joshua Muszynski was sentenced Monday in Rockingham Superior Court to two and a half to four years as part of a plea bargain. He was given credit for 98 days already served and released.
Muszynski, 25, and three other men were charged in a burglary spree in February that began at a Salem business, continued at an Atkinson gas station and convenience store, and ended with a police pursuit in Massachusetts that involved six police departments.
Seven laptop computers were stolen from Middlesex Corp. on Northwestern Drive in Salem, according to Salem police.
Police said the men also tried to break into other businesses there before leaving and burglarizing a Sunoco gas station and convenience store in Atkinson — eight miles away. More than $4,000 worth of cigarettes and cigars, and an undetermined amount of cash were taken from the store.
A Salem police officer responding to the Atkinson burglary passed the suspects' vehicle and pursued the Nissan Pathfinder into Lawrence, where they abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot. Muszynski was captured immediately, while Banshon Brown, 38, of Belmont and William Boucher, 26, of Londonderry were caught in North Andover.
The fourth man, Mark Lavigne, 28, of Salem, escaped and was not captured until March.
Muszynski had been held on $10,000 cash bail until appearing in 10th Circuit Court in Salem on Feb. 13. He then convinced Judge John Korbey to lower his bail to $5,000 cash. He also asked if he could be held under house arrest, but that request was rejected.
Muszynski told the judge he had to be home with his wife and disabled mother, who required constant care.
"My family has had an extremely difficult time coming up with (bail)," he said. "I need to take care of my mother at home . ... They have no financial support without me."
Muszynski pleaded guilty to two charges of accomplice to burglary, receiving one and half to three years suspended for one charge, and a year, with all but 98 days suspended, on the second charge, according to the county attorney's office.
Rockingham County Attorney James Reams said his office requested that Muszynski serve at least one and a half to three years in prison. Judge Kenneth McHugh gave Muszynski credit for the 98 days he already served in jail shortly after his arrest.
If convicted at trial on the two felony charges,
Muszynski faced three and half to seven years in state prison on each charge. He had also been indicted on charges of reckless driving and disobeying an officer. He was not prosecuted on those charges.

Can anyone give me an example of an bounded and linear operator $T:\ell^\infty\to \ell^\infty$ (the space of bounded sequences with the usual sup-norm), such that T has dense range, but is not surjective?
Here is an answer to an easier but related question.
Proposition. There is a one to one operator $T$ from $\ell_1(2^{\aleph_0})$ into $\ell_\infty$ that has dense range.
Of course, such an operator cannot be surjective because $\ell_1(2^{\aleph_0})$ is not isomorphic to $\ell_\infty$.
My proof of the Proposition uses an old result of Bill Davis and mine (Remark 4 in
Davis, W. J.; Johnson, W. B. On the existence of fundamental and total bounded biorthogonal systems in Banach spaces. Studia Math. 45 (1973), 173–179):
$\ell_\infty$ has a biorthogonal system $(x_\alpha,x_\alpha^*)_{\alpha<2^{\aleph_0}}$ with $\|x_\alpha\|=1$ and $\sup_\alpha \|x_\alpha^*\|<\infty$ such that the linear span of $(x_\alpha)$ is dense in $\ell_\infty$.
To prove the Proposition, define $T$ to be the norm one linear extension of the map $e_\alpha \mapsto x_\alpha$, where $(e_\alpha)$ is the unit vector basis for $\ell_1(2^{\aleph_0})$. This mapping obviously has dense range and is one to one because every biorthogonal system is countably linearly independent.
Here is a variation on the OP's question:
Is there a one to one bounded linear operator from $\ell_\infty$ into itself that has dense range but is not surjective?
The interest in the variation is that this question is easily seen to be equivalent to:
Are there quasi-complementary copies of $\ell_\infty$ in $\ell_\infty$ that are not complementary?
(Recall that two closed subspaces of a Banach space are said to be quasi-complementary if their sum is dense and their intersection is $\{0\}$.)
I could prove that if $T$ has dense then $T$ is surjective, in the cases where $T=S^{*}+W$, $W$ is weakly compact and $S:l^1\rightarrow l^1$ or when $T$ has totally disconnected spectrum.

The Hurricane Junior Golf Tour (HJGT) is excited to continue expansion within the state of North Carolina that will increase the national exposure of all participating players.

Upcoming events featured in the state of North Carolina for the spring of 2013 include: March 2-3: Lochmere, Cary; April 27-28: Lonnie Poole, Raleigh; September 21-22: Fox Den CC, Charlotte.
This choice tour has produced over 2,500 collegiate golfers who have signed letters of intent at over 200 universities and plays a vital role in promoting junior golf throughout the country. Playing on the nationally accredited tour will give all juniors an opportunity to gain nationwide exposure through multiple ranking systems including the National Junior Golf Scoreboard (NJGS), the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA), and the Golfweek/Titleist Performance Index, among others. All 3 of the previously mentioned tournaments will be ranked in accordance with The Tarheel Youth Golf Association (TYGA). The TYGA is the leading and most prominent of the ranking systems throughout the state of North Carolina. The TYGA is extremely beneficial for young players seeking exposure and offers them the opportunity to play amongst the best competition in the state. The Hurricane Junior Golf Tour (HJGT), through the hard work of Executive Director Mario Conte, has developed into a national-elite opportunity for junior golfers at a competitive level at only the top venues in the United States. The HJGT has a golden reputation as one of the most prestigious golf tours in the country because of its superior competition, high quality venues, state of the art technology, highly-trained staff, exclusive social media & public relations, developed pace-of-play policy, attentive customer service, and quality course set up and course markings.
HJGT Executive Director Mario Conte states, "My passion, integrity, and love for the game have allowed me to develop a first-class operation. The opportunity to be an exclusive member of the HJGT will provide a unique experience for all aspiring junior golfers. Our 2013 schedule is filled with some of the top courses in the country and we always strive to make your experience as memorable as possible."
About us: The Hurricane Junior Golf Tour (HJGT) was founded in 2008 with the intention of providing junior golfers between the ages of 11-18 an opportunity to play exceptional courses in a competitive environment. Golfers who participate on the tour will compete in one of four age divisions: Boys 15-18, Boys 11-14, Girls 11-14 and Girls 15-18. Based out of Jacksonville, FL, the HJGT administers events all across the nation, with stops in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, and Ohio.

As we've never cruised before, we didn't really know what to expect, but check in was very well organised - although we were expecting for there to at least be a Newsagent or something in the Cruise Terminal at Southampton.
Boarding the ship and entering via the Grand Lobby was quite an experience in itself. We quickly found our room which was a Britannia Balcony on Deck 8. The room was very clean and tidy. Our steward, John came and introduced himself and he was a genuinely nice chap.
First experience of Food was at the Kings Court Buffet which was busy, but the quality and variety was good.
As for the main Britannia Restaurant, I've read that some people were disappointed with it, and I had to wonder whether we were in the same Britannia Restaurant, as the experience was astonishing. From the decor to the excellent service we got from Rose, Ovi & Michael down to the food which we all thought was absolutely superb. My steak in particular was better than one I had at Marco Pierre White's a few weeks ago.
Drinks wise, We tried everywhere! Commodore Club was lovely - as are the views. Sir Samuels, The Chart Room & The Golden Lion. Only gripe was not being able to find anywhere to sit in any of them on the last night.
Entertainment wise - in the Theatre, we saw Romeo & Juliet, Appassionata and a Birmingham Born Singer from The Lion King. All very good. Also saw Prometheus in 3D in Illuminations.
Could not recommend Cunard & The QM2 highly enough & we can't wait to go again!

Brentford have sights squarely on League One title
Updated 10:46am Friday 31st January 2014 in Football By Stuart Amos
David Button might not have tasted defeat in his past 17 games between the sticks for the Bees, but he and the squad are not taking anything for granted – and winning the League One title tops the agenda.
The 24-year-old former Charlton Athletic shotstopper pulled off an important late save to preserve three points for Brentford in last Friday's 2-1 win over Gillingham, before having an easier time of things against Bristol City.
The Bees eased past City on Tuesday through an Aden Flint own goal and strikes from Alan Judge and Marcello Trotta for a 10th consecutive home win, and a 15th league success in 17 games.
But, while boss Mark Warburton's squad may feel invincible, Button insists there is no room for complacency with promotion glory on offer.
"Talk is easy, but we do go into every game feeling like we're going to win," he said.
"It is not a case of us getting complacent we know how important every game is. When you are top you want to stay there and, if anything, you are even more up for these games.
"The lads know what our aim is. We want to go up this season. It makes it easier when you are in the top two.
"We're setting out to win the league and if we can do that it will have been a great season."
Warburton revealed this week that the squad had a points target in mind that would secure automatic promotion, as they aim to avoid play-off heartache.
But the former Watford academy coach, who takes his team to Shrewsbury Town tomorrow, is keeping that information close to his chest for the time being.
"We have got 47 points from a possible 51 from our last 17 games so we are in an excellent place at the moment," he said.
"We do have a target and the players have set their own target, but that will stay behind closed doors for now."
The Bees should have defender Harlee Dean and midfielder Adam Forshaw available for selection at the weekend, however, winger Sam Saunders is a few days behind them.

The Searchers - The Concorde, Eastleigh
10:02am Tuesday 29th May 2012 in Music Reviews By Duncan Eaton
THERE are not many bands that can say that they have dodged bullets in Sarajevo.
But entertaining the troops on the front line has been part of the distinguished service record of The Searchers, who this year mark their 50th anniversary.
They stopped off at The Concorde, Eastleigh, as part of their nationwide tour and provided entertainment with a capital E for their army of loyal fans.
The legendary Liverpool band, which was second to The Beatles in the Mersey beat pecking order, have just returned from a sell-out tour of Australia.
It is easy to see why they were breathing down the necks of The Beatles. They had huge hits on both sides of the Atlantic which still produce the same foot tapping and army swaying response as they did all those decades ago.
The playlist covered a medley of chart-busters including Needles and Pins, Sugar and Spice, Don't Throw Your Love Away, When You Walk in the Room and Love Potion Number 9.

Zach Parise signed a 13-year, $98 million contract with the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday, and the reaction has been swift from the blogosphere. Within minutes, the Wild had also signed Ryan Suter to similar terms. Suffice it to say, Wild fans are pleased with having picked up the two biggest names of the 2012 NHL free agency period.
Via Hockey Wilderness:
The Minnesota Wild have agreed to terms with not one, but both of the big free agents this summer. This, from multiple sources on Twitter including Russo, ESPN, and basically everyone in the world. This is, without a doubt, the biggest day in the history of the franchise, and the Wild have to immediately begin to be thought of as not only a playoff team, but a real threat.
Ryan Suter. Zach Parise. Minnesota Wild.
Let that soak in for a minute Wild fans. Take a moment out of your Independence Day celebrations and celebrate the fact that the Wild actually do exist. Take a moment, then try to put your feelings into words and tell your thoughts on these two rather massive signings.
The Detroit Red Wings meanwhile, long used to getting their way in free agency, lost out on both stars. Now the team turns to second-tier options.
Via Winging It In Motown:
So Kenny missed. There are still options out there, but none as attractive as these two. It looks like it came down to them wanting to play together and the Wild offered a better package deal for the two than Detroit could. Lament the end of the Wings being the premier destination, scream at Kenny Holland, do whatever, just don't kill each other.

Please click on the colored area below where you most often boat.
Living is the real life preserver. With our 2014 Sport Boats, when it's time to unwind, a leisurely afternoon at the dock just isn't going to cut it. It's time to mix things up and get the blood pumping. It's time to feel alive and get started on a lifetime of memories. Ranging in size from 19 to 35 feet, these premium boats have more standards and features than other boats in their class.
Your weekends are calling. Spending your weekends on the water opens up a new world of possibilities. You do more. Experience more. And, yeah, you live more. This is where nothing is off the table and everything is possible.
Our 2014 Sundancers, ranging from 26 to 37 feet, are a hallmark of achievement and the signature of the Sea Ray brand. And among the top-end of our Sport Cruisers is the 37 foot Venture which is, quite simply, a new breed of boat that breaks all the rules.
Soak it all in. Fully enjoying the water is one of life's greatest pleasures. And once you've got a taste for it, there's no letting go. It becomes a part of you. Prepare for a new perspective. The voyage of your life is at hand.
LaunchPad is your dedicated source for the latest Sea Ray news, engaging lifestyle content, helpful how-tos and rewarding special offers.
Summer is finally here, and the last thing you want to think about is boat maintenance. But in order to fully enjoy the season, take a break from warm-weather fun for an occasional inspection and minor maintenance of your Sea Ray.
Start at the bottom and work up. If you see a layer of algae and scum beginning to build up at the waterline, give it a light scrubbing. For copolymer paints like Micron Extra or Micron CSC and ablative paints like Fiberglass Bottomkote ACT, simply taking the boat out for a spin around the harbor will clean off any waterline scum. For hard paints like Ultra or Fiberglass Bottomkote, use a soft Scotch-Brite.
If you boat in saltwater, rinse your gelcoat and painted and varnished finishes with freshwater to keep salt from drying on the surface, which will concentrate sunlight and cause UV damage. Because of the intense sun in tropical areas, you may also need to apply an additional coat of wax during the summer season. Interlux UV Protectant and Teflon Wax Sealer will help the wax last longer.
You may see a moustache or a yellowish-brown stain developing above the waterline. Clean this before the end of the season with Interlux All-Purpose Boat Soap. If it's a stubborn stain, use the Heavy Duty Stain Remover and then apply the UV Protectant and Wax Sealer, which will make it easier to clean later.
Keep your varnish clean and repair any damage as soon as possible to prevent water from getting underneath, which can cause the varnish to lift. Store a can of varnish and brushes on board for immediate touchups. If you notice a nick or ding, give it a light sanding with 220-grit sandpaper and apply a couple of coats to the damaged area. This will protect the finish so you won't have to re-varnish at the end of the season.
Clean any teak and, when it begins to gray, scrub with Interlux Teak Restorer and apply another coat of teak oil. Clean across the grain to avoid removing the soft grain.
It's not just the topside that counts: Keep your engine running efficiently and check the lower unit of the outdrive or underwater running gear to make sure they're free from fouling. Clean with a soft Scotch-Brite pad if necessary.
Check any thru-hulls or exhaust ports for signs of staining. Use Interlux Heavy Duty Stain Remover to remove the staining and apply Premium Marine Wax with Teflon or wax sealer. A little preventive maintenance means even more good times this summer on your Sea Ray. For more information about Interlux, visit www.yachtpaint.com or call (800) 468-7589.

WEST JEFFERSON, Ohio (AP) -- Target Corp. says it's building a new food distribution center in central Ohio that will employ up to 150 people when completed after construction begins this spring.
The center will handle produce as well as refrigerated, frozen and packaged foods, part of the company's move to add fresh foods to hundreds of stores around the country.
The facility, bigger than seven football fields, will create about 250 construction jobs and 100 to 150 permanent jobs when it opens in West Jefferson about 20 miles west of Columbus.
Target says it currently operates 37 distribution centers in the U.S.

This is the bolted line to the right of the fin (with 3 bolted lines) and ascends up right and then into a wide groove.

It's that time of year again for all the Top Ten lists of movies you never saw, music you never heard, TV shows you never watched and books you never read.
Not that you didn't try. You wanted to see that must-see movie all the critics were talking about at Sundance and Cannes but, like the rest of the movies on their Top Ten list, it never came to your town. Now you can't remember what it was called, just that it sounded wonderful. But you also remember that, three years ago, you went to a movie that was at the top of everyone's Top Ten list and you hated it. Why didn't anyone mention that it was in Dutch with English subtitles?
There were some movies you wanted to see this year but they only stayed at the mall for one week and that was the same week Sally at work was sick and you had to fill in for her. Oddly enough, she saw it. Where does she find the time?
Then there were all the movies that opened Thanksgiving Day. Why didn't you go? Oh yeah, you were busy that week cleaning the house and getting the extra bedrooms ready and shopping for stuffing and preparing a Thanksgiving meal and then cleaning up the mess afterwards — while everyone else went to the movies. Everybody went on Thanksgiving night because the next day was Black Friday and they wanted to shop, not see a movie. Then you got so busy with Christmas cards and making cookies that you still haven't seen any of the new films. You won't be able to go Christmas Day, either, because you'll be on the road to Grandma's house and that thing you ordered for Bob never came in the mail so you've got to get that straightened out, but you kids, you go see something. The kids have got plenty of time to go to movies. They aren't spending any of their free time studying, that's for sure. They act like it's hard to maintain a grade point average of .02. That's worth $50,000 a year. Why is it that when you send kids off to college, they come back stupider than when they left? You wouldn't think it was possible.

Fifteen Toledo zip codes have been designated as high risk for lead poisoning by the Ohio Health Department.
So Monday, two organizations presented their stance to Toledo city leaders, asking for change when it comes to lead regulations.
Toledoans United for Social Action (TUSA) and Advocates for Basic Legal Equity (ABLE) are asking the city to come up with an ordinance that would require landlords to test their properties for lead.
"Lead poisoning is a devastating cognitive problem for children who are exposed to lead," said Robert Cole, a staff attorney with ABLE. "This can result in development and behavioral problems, this can result in loss of educational opportunities, this can result in a loss of economic opportunities."
Cole says studies have shown that children growing up in low-income homes are the ones affected the most by lead poisoning. He says right now there are federal and state laws in place, but there are ways landlords can get by them. So TUSA and ABLE want the city to step in.
"If you're going to put rental property on the market, and rent a home to a family with young children, that home ought to meet basic housing standards and that home ought to be inspected and certified that it's lead-safe," Cole said.
People from all different religious congregations joined in the effort to bring awareness to the issue, many saying it's just one more thing we can do for our community.
"It's one small thing, but important, that we can actually do something about, for the betterment of our community," said Pastor Jeff McBeth of Good Shepherd Parish.

A state program intended to improve the way people get social services is experiencing a backlog that is leaving some people all over the state without food.
Brenda Jackson, director of Cumberland County's Department of Social Services, estimated there were 350 people waiting on overdue food stamps two weeks ago. Late last week, the department worked that backlog down to 130.
Eleanor Raines of Fayetteville is one of the people still waiting for food stamps. She expected the benefit on Aug.11.
"If I didn't need the system, I wouldn't use the system. But I need the system," Raines said.
She said she lost her job in a massive layoff nearly three years ago. Her husband's health declined and the bills started piling up. They've turned to food stamps to help.
"My husband is sick. He needs nutrition, he needs nourishment," Raines said. "I can't take care of him and get him well because I don't have food to do so."
She has a little frozen meat and vegetables, and almost nothing in her refrigerator and cabinets. Most of it came from a charity food pantry.
The backlog started after a mid-July expansion of the NC FAST (Families Accessing Services through Technology) system. The system has rolled out statewide since November.
Food stamps was the first program integrated into the system.
In July, the system was updated to begin integrating Medicaid. That caused a few glitches, and it also took several days of training for employees to learn about the upgrades.
While one-third of employees were in training at a time, the other social services employees could not keep up with the normal workload of processing claims.
"[It was the] learning curve, the new system, some computer glitches, taking some staff online to learn the new system -- just a combination of things," Jackson said.
She said employees have been working overtime on some nights and some Saturdays since the system began. Twenty temporary employees also helped the county's social services department keep up with getting claims into the system.
Even the temporary help could not prevent a backlog in July, Jackson said.
Last week two state specialists came it to provide hands-on assistance to employees having trouble with NC FAST. That help reduced the backlog to about 130 people, Jackson said. Two more state specialists began helping this week.
"We may be a little burned out, but we are going to keep moving forward and pushing forward," Jackson said.
Jackson said the staff realizes the delays are hard on people who need and deserve social services benefits. However, she believes NC FAST will ultimately be embraced by people who use the system.
"At the end of the day, when we get finished with this complete transition of folding all the programs into NC FAST, it's a better day for citizens," Jackson said. "While it may not feel like that to our citizens right now, give us a few months, and they're going to love this system because it's about improving our service delivery to them."
For Raines it is still frustrating. She still cannot be sure of when her delay will be resolved.
"It wouldn't be so bad if they could give you an answer -- tell you something other than, 'I don't know. I don't know,' or, 'We're working on it. We're working on it.' That is not a satisfactory answer to me," Raines said.
Jackson estimated that the extra help from state specialist will clear the backlog by the end of the week. She says other delays may come up again as NC FAST expands for more programs.

She was a colleague and a good friend of mine and the many hundreds of children she taught in Masterton and beyond. Ka nui te mihi aroha ki a koe Patsy. It was a really busy start for us all here at NSTP this year. It's been a mixture of looking ahead to the future, working with iwi interested in discussing how our services can assist them in their cultural and heritage developments, and keeping an eye on where we have been the last 4 years. We are currently working on our workshop programme for the year ahead, offering Digital Photography and the ever popular Paper Conservation and Taonga Textile Conservation workshops. Iwi have realised the opportunities that these open, and the uptake of the workshops by iwi shows the hard work that our team of tutors have put into developing them. Do you have an idea for an iwi workshop? Contact me. Grants available for iwi There has been an increase in iwi wanting to learn about aspects of NSTP assistance through our two grants: Helping Hands Grants (HHG) and Strategic Project Grants (SPG). We also operate the Expert Knowledge Exchange programme, which offers iwi the opportunity to host an expert from another organisation for intensive one-on-one advice or workshopping. An example of this could be an iwi hosting an expert like Rangi Te Kanawa to teach iwi members whāriki conservation using the latest methods she has been developing in conjunction with iwi. Get on our website, whānau, to see what we have to offer you. Recent workshops Looking back to the end of 2011, we rolled out workshops in the Far North, where we were hosted by Te Rarawa iwi in Kaitaia and held a Taonga Conservation workshop at the iwi educational centre Toka Tu Moana. We used this time to get out and about to places like Herekino with Annie Walker and to discuss issues with Catholic Father Pa Henare Tate at Motuti Marae. Thanks to Te Rūnanga o Te Rarawa CEO Haami Piripi and local workshop organiser Brony Hunt. I also met with local museum staff members and learnt about the latest exciting developments at the Te Ahu centre, which at that time was nearing completion. The centre is a multi-purpose community facility building, which will house the museum, public library, visitor information centre, and gallery for Kaitaia and surrounding communities. It's a neat collaboration between the wider communities' iwi and council. Thanks to Don and Lynda Hammond for the updates and discussion. We stayed on the road and travelled to Kaikohe to Ngāpuhi iwi rohe, and were hosted at Otaua Marae. This was a busy weekend with two workshops running simultaneously, Taonga Conservation with Rangi Te Kanawa and Paper Conservation with Vicki-Anne Heikell from Alexander Turnbull Library. We also had the added bonus of a lecture by Hokimate Harwood who has whānau links to Otaua Marae. Hokimate is Bicultural Science Researcher Matauranga Māori at Te Papa. Her kaupapa or theme was the scientific research undertaken to identify species in 110 kākahu held by Te Papa. I would like to thank Te Rūnanga o Ngāpuhi, especially local organiser Lucy Taurua- Mason, Kaumatua Uncle Tau Hopa and the ringawera (cooks). Workshop participants at Otaua Marae I attended an art exhibition by emerging artist Tracey Takuira at Mangamuka and, as well as viewing some awesome art, I got to meet local whānau and was interviewed by the local radio station. Also while in the area we visited the Going Family Rugby Museum. The family had an awesome display of Far North and international rugby treasures, including jerseys and memorabilia. We then travelled over to beautiful Motatau Marae with the Ashby whānau and listened to kaumatua Tohe Ashby talk about the history and future plans for the development of the whānau and marae. I also stopped in at the Kauri Museum at Matakohe and had a visit with Betty Nelley and some of the local representatives – Bernard Makaore and Hinerangi Himiona. The Museum has a very good relationship with local iwi and they often collaborate on special projects throughout the year, like Matariki, where the community celebrates Māori New Year. In June this year, we travelled over to the Wairarapa to workshop in collaboration with Ngāti Kahungunu and Rangitane. I felt blessed because we were accompanied by Waikato kaumatua in residence at Te Papa, Taki and Ratou Turner. I always feel at ease when we are graced by their presence. The kaupapa of the workshop was Digital Photography for iwi and this was tutored by top photographer Norm Heke. We were hosted at Te Oreore Marae and a big mihi to Mike Kawana, Joseph Potangaroa, the ringawera at the Marae, and local organiser and kaumatua Haami Te Whaiti. One last point, whānau. Early this year, I was given time in the office to trace my steps over the last 4 years, tracking where we have held workshops and what the kaupapa were. I discovered I'd been involved in 44 workshops all around the country and in all sorts of locations. This information is vital when researching what is going on around the country, spotting trends, and getting up to speed with iwi developments. I'm currently getting ready for the next few months. I'll be working with Ngāti Hine in the Far North, Makaawhio Rūnanga at Hokitika on the West Coast, as well working on our other NSTP mahi. That's enough from me for now everyone. But like I always say to those who are thinking of their iwi and how they can get involved in culture and heritage development for their whānau/hapu/iwi – get on our site or use our helpline, I'm only too happy to chat and see how we can assist.

PEORIA, Ill. -- What's eating you? In tonight's Ask Dr. Joy, we are looking at some symptoms that might lead to those extra pounds.
Here's what we know about being overweight:
* Brain center that controls emotions and stress also governs our appetite
* Early life experiences set the stage for later overeating
* Those who easily experience negative feelings are likely to be overweight
* Impulsive people on the high end of the spectrum tend to be 24 pounds heavier than those who are low on impulsivity
* Those who are not agreeable tend to gain more weight
* Those who have poor emotional relationships with their mothers at a young age are two times more prone to being obese at age 15.
Are there some personality types that are more prone to being overweight?
Night owls: Tend to be sleep deprived and that drives down the hormones that monitor fullness. It fuels our appetite and changes our ability to process sugar. Night owls tend to miss breakfast and sets up night time eating
Stress lovers: These people thrive on deadlines and pressure. It gives them a rise in their adrenaline and cortisol and it feels like a high. This pressure cooker tends to stimulate the brain and boosts carbohydrate cravings and tends to churn excess insulin that accumulates fat, especially belly fat
The co-dependent: This person puts everyone ahead of themselves and their own needs. They feel emotional depleted and tend to use food as a means of nurturing. Food works because it is close, it's available, and it's comforting.
The Perfectionist: Those who need to have everything in the right place tend to use food to relieve the pressure. They set themselves up for failure with unrealistic expectations and impossible weight goals.
If we find ourselves in any of the 4 above scenerios, are there any suggestions?
Night owl fixers: Try to regulate your sleep pattern to a normal time. Stay away from stimulants, bright lights at night, and keep electronics at a minimum in the evening hours. A calming effect will lower your need for food comfort
Stress Junkies fixer: Exercise and do things to pamper yourself that are not food related. You'll find that once you lower your stress level, your food cravings will moderate
Co-dependent fixers: Set reasonable limits on your time, your energy and your desire to say "yes." You will discover when you take care of yourself and find a balance in your life, you will tend to decrease your desire for food
The perfectionist fixer: Set realistic goals and strive for progress vs. perfection. Remember that have a few flaws makes you human and more accessible and real. When you are a little easier on yourself you'll find the pounds tend to melt away.

Irish singer and frontman of U2, Bono waves as he arrives at the Dublin Convention Centre in Dublin, Ireland, on March 7, 2014 during The European Peoples Party (EPP) conference. European conservatives picked former Luxembourg prime minister Jean-Claude Juncker as their candidate to be the next European Commission president -- igniting the centre right grouping's campaign for European elections in May. Juncker comfortably defeated Michel Barnier, a French EU commissioner, at a congress of the European People's Party (EPP) in Dublin by 382 votes to 245.

NIOSH Video on Oil and Gas Rig Removal Safety for Truckers
NIOSH has published a video covering rig move safety for truckers in the oil and gas fields. NIOSH says the video "helps make sense of the organized chaos" that accompanies a rig move and highlights some easy ways to lower the risk of being injured or killed when moving to a new location.

Could Florida's Stand Your Ground Law Be Amended?
According to an article in the Palm Beach Post yesterday, in response to the Trayvon Martin shooting earlier this year, Florida Senate Democratic Leader Chris Smith of Fort Lauderdale has filed SB 136 in an attempt to curtail the current stand your ground law. Florida criminal defense and criminal appeals attorneys might like to follow this bill as it travels through the bowels of the Legislature. The gist of the amendment appears to limit the stand your ground defense in the case of pursuit of an alleged trespasser or assailant, or if the person claiming the stand your ground defense leaves a place of safety to place him or herself in proximity to a situation that might call for the use of force. To view the text of the bill, which was just filed on December 19, 2012, click here.

KSP Participating in 'Operation Air Brake Safety Week'
Date of News Release: 09/14/2009
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- The KSP Commercial Vehicle Enforcement (CVE) Division is participating in 'Operation Air Brake Safety Week' that is scheduled September 13 - 19, 2009. This national campaign is an ongoing effort dedicated to improving commercial vehicle brake safety throughout North America. The purpose is to reduce the number of highway crashes caused by faulty braking systems on commercial vehicles by conducting roadside inspections and educating drivers, mechanics and others on the importance of proper brake inspection, maintenance and operation.
Throughout the week of 'Operation Air Brake Safety,' CVE Officers and Inspectors will conduct roadside inspections of commercial vehicles with an emphasis on braking systems.
Lt. Col. Mitch Bailey, Division Director for CVE said that improperly adjusted air brakes and brake system defects are common violations during weigh station inspections.
"Poorly adjusted or defective air brakes reduce the braking capacity for large vehicles and further inhibit their stopping distance," said Bailey. "Under ideal conditions, the braking capacity of commercial vehicles is twice as far as that for cars and other smaller vehicles. This increases the risk to other motorists on the road and the driver of the vehicle itself."
In 2008, there were 6,246 crashes involving a commercial motor vehicle in Kentucky. Of those crashes, there were 1,617 injuries and 106 deaths.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.

The Lightning promote a trio of NHL experienced players form the Norfolk admirals to the NHL roster.
A 2-0 series lead fades, and the Norfolk Admirals, Tampa Bay's AHL affiliate, has their season end.
Congratulations are in order... Again. And some minor matters for the Lightning organization (that matter in a big way).
Goaltender Dustin Tokarski, starting back-to-back contests, stopped all 27 shots he faced (that's 59 saves in two days) as the Lightning's AHL affiliate shutout the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins 2-0. The Ads lead the first round playoff series 2 games to 0. The series now shifts to Norfolk and Scope Arena.
Friday night saw the Lightning beat the Penguins on two organizational levels,
The Pens and Bolts dance in the NHL's Eastern Conference Quarterfinals as well as in the AHL's Eastern Conference quarterfinals.

I write a variety blog called Courtside Seats to Hell, and I talked about how I grew up an NIU fan and what this game means to me and what this program was built on
But who gets the money? New AD Norwood Teague is being pressed by both coaches for facility upgrades to their respective programs, but finance limitations means that probably only one will get the funding immediately. Jerry Kill called the football practice facility an "eyesore in recruiting," and Tubby Smith has complained that Minnesota still doesn't have a separate practice facility for basketball. Kill believes that an upgrade to the football facility would cost a cool 3 million. Shouldn't be tough for someone with Teague's resume. Adam Rittenberg believes that Teague's background in basketball makes it more likely that he'll focus on fundraising for Smith's practice facility. It is also possible that Teague, in his first major decision as athletic director, would prioritize football first and meet Kill's needs. Thoughts?
Phil Miller reports. Apparently this is a bit of a risk for Kill and co. because Gillum "did not have the grades to enroll at Northern Illinois" when Kill was NIU's coach and was recruiting him four years ago. Miller argues that Kill is likely recruiting Gillum because the Gophers are desperate for some depth at running back, and it's a risk they're willing to take. Gillum's JUCO coach says the recruit's grades are "in order" and is confident that Gillum will be a big impact for Minnesota.
Kill doesn't take too kindly to tearing down goalposts....
Our own Ted Glover managed to snag a one-on-one interview with Minnesota Gophers' head football coach Jerry Kill. Come on over and check it out! The more I hear from and about this guy, the more I like him.
ESPN says that Minnesota is going to hire Jerry Kill. Hope you enjoyed your one great season, Northern Illinois!

I posted on another thread, but will ask the question here as well: if the autofocus is the only major upgrade, is that enough for people to buy the 5DIII?
If the price was the same as the 'usual' 5DII price (before the recent drops, i.e. ~US$2500) and the AF was substantially improved, I would strongly consider it instead of the 1D X, especially with the second joystick on the battery grip. 12 fps would be nice, of course, but I don't have a real issue with the current 3.9 fps.
For me, it will depend on the nuances. I'm fortunate that budget isn't an overriding consideration - yes, I'd like to spend only $3K on camera+grip and leave $6K for lenses (differential from 1D X plus proceeds from sale of 5DII). But it would depend on how much of an upgrade the AF got, and probably also how improved the 1D X's ISO performance really is - Canon has claimed 2 stops for JPGs over the 1DIV, but then they've also claimed, "A new photodiode structure with an increased photoelectric conversion rate increases the sensor's sensitivity by approximately 2 stops over previous models, meaning higher ISOs with the lowest noise of any EOS digital camera." So, which is it? If it's two real stops of improvements due to sensor enhancements and thus reflected in the RAW files...an ISO 12800 that delivers similar noise as ISO 3200 on the 5DII would incline me to the 1D X.

I'll eat just about any sweet, frozen treat, from gelato to Dr. Pepper popsicles. But frozen yogurt has the added bonus of being low-fat and trendy!
Apparently, frozen yogurt is so popular that it deserves two national days of honor: Both Feb. 8 and today are National Frozen Yogurt Day! Since you enjoyed my last froyo quiz so much, I thought I'd throw another one your way.

The tragic shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and 18 other victims in Tucson, Arizona on January 8, 2011 is only the latest in a long list of unimaginable shooting rampages by troubled individuals. In the aftermath of the catastrophe, questions have emerged as to whether some intervention could have prevented the devastating loss of life and injuries that occurred on that day.
Experts John Liebert, M.D. and William J. Birnes, J.D., Ph.D. maintain that early awareness of aberrant behaviors followed by intervention can avert some of the tragedies that seem to be occurring time and time again on America's campuses and street corners. Their compelling work, Suicidal Mass Murderers: A Criminological Study of Why They Kill discusses the pathophysiology of violent offenders and provides first hand empirical and experimental data on mass homicidal/suicidal offenders. It introduces and explains the concept of apocalyptic mass murder and demonstrates how the final words of the killer in the days before the shooting can signal the end is near.
