Beginning January 1, 2013, the Town/Village of East Rochester has instituted new collection rules pertaining to all electronic waste in order to comply with the new state wide electronic waste collecting law. As part of this new law, landfills will no longer be allowed to accept any electronic waste collected by the Town/Village of East Rochester at their disposal sites.
As of January 1, 2013, any form of electronic waste placed at the curb for collection for either regular pick up as well as during bulk pick up, will incur a fee of $25.00 per item if collected by the Department of Public Works (DPW). Any such disposed electronic waste items will be will be tagged with a yellow sticker and left at the curb by the regular refuse or bulk refuse collection crew, and a separate collection crew will be back in the afternoon on the next regular workday to collect those electronic waste items which still remain at the curb. Upon collection, these items will be brought to the DPW Garage, where we will have an electronic waste collection facility. We have partnered with SUNNKING Electronics Recycling to comply with this new law.
To avoid the fee for curbside collection, any residents wishing to dispose of any electronic waste, may instead bring their items to the Department of Public Works Garage at 200 Ontario Street, Monday through Thursday, 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Although residents will be asked to sign in for this process, there is no fee for this drop off service and it is available to all residents regardless of whether they have refuse service provided by the Town/Village of East Rochester.
Examples of Electronic Waste (E-Waste) are: Computers (towers, laptops, PDAs, Tablets), Monitors (CRT, LCD, LED), Printers, Scanners, Copiers, Fax machines, Televisions, VCRs, CD/DVD players, Stereo equipment, Cell phones, Telephones and anything else with a plug.
The Village of East Rochester has in effect a law which provides an incentive to owners of multi-family dwellings for converting those structures to single-family usage.
There are several multi-family dwellings in the Village, generally rental property, which were originally built as single-family homes. The goal of the Village Board is to incent as many property owners as possible to return these homes to their original single-family use. The results should have positive benefits to our greater community. Restoring those homes to single-family use results in a more valuable piece of property. Single-family homes in the Village continue to appreciate in value, in most cases, at a higher rate than multi-family properties.
The owner of "de-converted" property under this incentive can select one of the following rebate options:

DULUTH, Minn. – A convicted sex offender arrested this week in Minnesota will be questioned in the case of missing nursing student Holly Bobo.
Victor George Wall, 44, was found sleeping at his girlfriend's home in Duluth on Thursday and taken into custody.
He was convicted of child molestation in Washington state in 1998 and moved to Perry County, in Tennessee, in 2007.
His last known address was in Linden, not far from the home near Parsons where Bobo lives.
The 20-year-old was last seen on the morning of April 13 outside the home being led into the woods by a man wearing camouflage.
As part of the Bobo investigation, authorities began trying to locate all registered sex offenders but could not find Wall, who is listed on the state's Sex Offender Register as a violent offender.
The Perry County Sheriff's Office issued a warrant for his arrest earlier this week.
Authorities previously said they do not have any evidence linking Wall to the Bobo case but none-the-less want to talk to him.
He will be extradited back to Tennessee.
The Hard Rock Cafe in Nashville is hosting a benefit for Bobo's family next Saturday, August 13. Visit HardRock.com for details.
Anyone with information on Bobo's disappearance or whereabouts is urged to contact the TBI at 1-800-TBI-FIND.

NORTH BAY – If you made a resolution to become involved in a worthy cause for 2013, there's a place waiting for you at Heritage North Bay.
"We're always looking for volunteers," said Heritage North Bay Chair Gordan Rennie. "Like many other organizations our volunteer base is shrinking. There just seems to be less people, and people with less time."
Rennie says volunteers are needed all year round, but worries that without enough people the carousel and miniature railway may not be able to stay open during the summer months.
"If we don't have enough people then we can't open the rides," he said, " and volunteers are retiring at a faster rate then they're signing up."
A Heritage North Bay volunteer has a world of opportunities open to them to take an active part in preserving and promoting local history.
In the organization's year-end report to North Bay Council given just before Christmas, Rennie said volunteers look after the three functions that Heritage North Bay is responsible for, the Discovery North Bay museum, the Community Waterfront Park and heritage gardens and the train and carousels.
"Our biggest challenge is financial," said Rennie. "We do not receive municipal funds so we have to be creative and make sure we are responsible in what we are spending money on.
Good decision-making requires a full understanding of internal and external factors. "Our organization is not currently financially sustainable and in recognizing that we realized that a comprehensive and objective review of operations and opportunities was needed if we are to survive," he said.
In light of this Heritage North Bay has retained KPMG to complete an operational review and develop a Strategic Growth Plan that encompasses all three heritage endeavors.
"This plan will also enable us to make informed decisions with respect to future park growth and development," Rennie said. "Sometimes you just need a fresh set of eyes and that's what KPMG is giving us."
The study is being funded with help from NECO and the Downtown Improvement Association.
Plans are already underway to utilize the new areas of the waterfront park.
"We have already developed partnerships to host showcase events in the town square in 2013 with the aim of increasing activity in the downtown area and generating additional revenue," said Rennie. "And we will work together with Community Waterfront Friends and the city to evaluate new opportunities for future park development that will be fiscally sustainable."
Rennie said awareness of heritage events and public participation is increasing.
"We had well over 2,000 people come through the doors of the museum during the annual Christmas Walk and we have some really great exhibits planned for the new year."
Heritage North Bay will be focusing on discovering more about the city's past as well as bringing in traveling history exhibits.
"We want people to be able to see these larger exhibits in our own museum, and not have to travel to places like Ottawa," Rennie said. "We're also working with our new curator, Naomi Rupke, to develop our own shows and educational tours."
This Saturday, Jan. 5 the museum opens its door on a new local exhibit featuring the artwork from the Ontario Northland Collection – art created throughout Northern Ontario and the Canadian Arctic that focuses on the role the railway played in connecting the area.
The exhibit will be open to March 31 and will also include photos of Ontario Northland train stations and offices as well artifacts related to the rail line.
With its three different and expanding focuses on history, Rennie says Heritage North Bay has "volunteer jobs for every skill level and age bracket," including gardeners, tour guides, train operators, ticket collectors, and gift shop staff. And that just names a few.
Anyone interested in making 2013 a year filled with variety and increased appreciation for the past, present and future can contact Heritage North Bay at 705-476-2323.

MERCED COUNTY — Deputies with the Merced County Sheriff's Tactical and Reconnaissance Team on Friday reported eradicating 15,000 marijuana plants in a cornfield in the Ballico area, just east of the Turlock Airport on Newport Road.
No arrests have been made.
Deputy Delray Shelton, sheriff's spokesman, said the department's aviation unit spotted the large-scale operation and contacted the Sheriff's Tactical and Reconnaissance Team.
Shelton said the massive grow was being watered with a pivot irrigation system that was intended for the cornfield. Shelton said that during the past three days, the STAR Team eradicated 1,000 marijuana plants at seven other locations.
He said the marijuana has a street value of about $2,000 per plant.

China's Underground Bishop Leon Yao Liang dies
One of the great and unsung heroes for religious freedom died reportedly on Wednesday, Dec. 30, 2009, inside China. The news of his passing is reaching the West this week.
The Cardinal Kung Foundation has this to say about 87-year-old Bishop Leon Yao Liang, who Chairman Mao imprisoned for 28 years:
Underground Catholic Bishop Leon Yao Liang, the auxiliary bishop of Xiwanzi in Hebei, died on December 30, 2009. He was 87. We have not yet learned of any funeral arrangements for his burial because the news of his death appears to have been tightly controlled by the Chinese authority. Bishop Yao was born in 1923 in Gonghui Village, Zhangbei County. He was ordained a priest in 1946. After ordination, he was assigned to various churches as assistant pastor. He was restricted in the region of Xiwanzi for his priestly duty by the Communist regime in the early 1950's, earning his livelihood from vegetable farming and from selling fire wood. In 1956, he was forced to enter labor camp, and in 1958, was sentenced to life imprisonment. His "crime" was to be in communion with the Pope and with the universal Catholic Church.
He was finally released from the prison in 1984 after 28 years in labor camps and prison. He was ordained a bishop on February 19, 2002 under a mandate from the Vatican.
The New York Times notes the bishop's passing and his continued influence on Catholic observance:
Short and stout, with a shock of white hair and a booming voice, Bishop Yao presided almost up to his death over daily Masses that drew hundreds and Sunday Masses that often attracted a thousand people. The Chinese authorities forbade him to carry out his administrative duties as bishop but did not overtly interfere with his clerical activities.
Despite all the speculation about basic change in China, repression at the grassroots level seems little changed. In its Jan. 4 news release, the Kung Foundation notes:
In the meantime, we learned that three underground Catholic priests from Xuanhua, Hebei, Fathers Zhang Cunhui age 46, Zhang Zhanglin age 45, and Liu (??) age 32 disappeared in June 2009. They are believed by the local Catholic community to have been kidnapped by the Government's agent and are now detained in an unknown location. Underground bishop of Xuanhua, Bishop Zhao Kexun, is now hiding under a government arrest warrant. Other priests are under intense pressure form the government to join the Catholic Patriotic Association, which is an independent government sponsored religious agent independent from the Vatican.

Specifically, Linux has increased its already substantial supercomputer market share to 88.6%. Linux is followed by hybrid Unix/Linux systems with 5.8%; Unix, mostly IBM's AIX, with 4.4%; and running close to last, Windows HPC (high-performance computing) with 1%. Only BSD, with a single representative on the list, trails Windows.
In the lead at the number 1 spot with 1.105 petaflop/s (quadrillions of floating point operations per second) is the Los Alamos National Laboratory Roadrunner system by IBM. Roadrunner was the first system, to break the petaflop/s Linpack barrier in June 2008.
How fast is that? According to the Department of Energy, which paid for the Roadrunner, "One petaflop is 1,000 trillion operations per second. To put this into perspective, if each of the 6 billion people on earth had a hand calculator and worked together on a calculation 24 hours per day, 365 days a year, it would take 46 years to do what Roadrunner would do in one day."
And, of course, the Roadrunner is fueled by Linux. In fact, all the top ten run Linux.
The hardware the supercomputers run on is quickly shifting over to multi-core processors. In this latest ranking, only four supercomputers still use single-core CPUs. Quad-core processor-based systems are found in 383 systems, while 102 systems are using dual-core processors. In addition, four supercomputers are now using IBM's Sony PlayStation 3 processor with 9 cores. Yes, that's right, top of the line supercomputers use the same top of the line processors found in PlayStations. Neat isn't it?
Most of the supercomputer processors though come from Intel. To be exact, 399 systems, 79.8% are Intel. IBM Power processors come in second with 55 systems, 11% with AMD Opteron family with 43 systems in the third spot.
Regardless of the processor, one thing isn't just staying the same, it's actually growing, and that's Linux in supercomputers. When being the fastest of the fast is all that matters, Linux isn't just winning, it's extending its lead.

CATEGORIES Action, Independent, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Deals, Newsstand, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Western, Movies, CinematicalThere is a real trend of King Arthur revisionism lately -- first there was Galahad, then Brian K. Vaughn's Roundtable, and now John Woo is taking a crack at it with Caliber. Variety reports that the rights to the series have been snatched up by Johnny Depp's Infinitum Nihil, Barry Levine's Radical Comics (also the book's publisher), and Woo's Lion Rock.
Caliber sets King Arthur firmly into the American Old West, which is rather fitting, since as a location it's nearly as mythical as Camelot. Arthur is given Caliber, a tattooed six-shooter (how do you tattoo a gun?) given to him by the Native Americans. It's no ordinary gun, as it's never loaded with bullets. Only a man with Justice on his side can fire it, at which point it shoots lightning. Accompanying him through the Pacific Northwest are the The Knights of the Round Table, all noble gunslingers, bound by a code of honor to protect the weak and defend the innocent. I guess they have to carry regular guns, though. I can't find an online preview of the comic for you, unfortunately, so we'll just have to hope a Cinematical reader out there can fill us in on the first issue. It certainly has a pretty cover, but I'm not sold on the premise yet.
Variety mentions that Caliber will be unveiled at Comic-Con next week, but it looks like the first issue came out in May 2008. So I'm not sure what exactly is being unveiled, but it will the last bit of news we may have on the project for a while, as Woo has a very full slate. He has a number of projects to complete before he tackles Caliber -- editing part two of Red Cliff, 1949, The Sicilian Clan, and The Divide. The King Arthur trend may have come, gone, and become ready for another resurrection. One with doves flying in slow motion.

The corporatist media is shilling the lie that the battle in Wisconsin between the governor and the unions is about cutting deficits, saving money and fiscal sanity. In reality it is more about gutting unions and undermining the rights of workers than fiscal solvency.

Past and present members of the Green Bay Packers, the "People's Team," are girding up for one more fight and this time, it's against their own governor, Scott Walker.

In the current environment where "affordability" is paramount and companies must "do more without more," it is critical that companies can quickly and efficiently identify their CAS-covered contracts. This is important for two key reasons:
The original CAS Board, in its Working Group Guidance Paper – WG 77-17, recognized the necessity for companies to quickly and efficiently identify its CAS-covered contracts. In WG 77-17, the CAS Board stated:
"In order to comply with the requirement of the Administration of CAS clause……contractors should be required to maintain a system for identifying accurately and completely all contracts and subcontracts which contain the Cost Accounting Standards clause…..The ACO should ensure that the contractor has such a system and that it is functioning effectively." (emphasis added)
Determining applicability at the time of contract award is the best process to adopt. This is important because one cannot determine applicability based solely on whether or not the CAS clauses (i.e. FAR 52.230-xx) are in the contract. For example: (1) the legal principal called the "Christian doctrine" may "read the clause in" if the contracting officer should have included it but didn't; and (2) one can argue the clause is "self-deleting" if the contracting officer included the clause, but shouldn't have. The most accurate method of determining CAS applicability involves understanding, at the time of contract award, if one of the nine exemptions identified at CFR 9903.201-1 "CAS applicability" exists. This determination should be part of the contract brief process and then recorded in the accounting/contracts system. Deltek currently has the ability to designate a contract as CAS-covered, so Deltek users are one step ahead! Performing this exercise years after contract award can be difficult since the parties who negotiated the contract are either gone, or are not as familiar with the circumstances of the award. In these circumstances, companies should have someone survey existing contracts using the same process discussed above to ensure they have all their CAS-covered contracts identified in the system.
Following the steps above will: (1) ensure your company uses its resources efficiently when calculating cost impacts; and (2) limit surprises when a company exceeds the threshold requiring full CAS coverage or to submit a CAS Disclosure Statement.
Aside from the CAS clauses, there are other important contract clauses companies should be tracking and including in their accounting/contracts system for easy identification. Stay tuned for blog posts on these clauses and how your company can benefit by having a process to quickly and efficiently identify them.

Diving & Island Hopping
Our Dive Partner "Sea Bees" co-operates with the Mangosteen since the opening day. Sea Bees also provides the weekly introduction diving courses in our pool, every Monday 4-pm. Phuket's waters are famous amongst divers and the resort is just a short drive away from Chalong Pier, where the dive excursions start.
Day trips with the "MV Excalibur II"
Excalibur II brings our guests to all the well-known and beautiful dive spots around Phuket on a daily basis. With its level of service and comfort, it is one of the most modern daytrip boats in Thailand with an emphasis on safety. Because of its design and construction, this boat is extremely stable in the water.
We dive in small groups of 4 people with 1 guide.
Because of the relatively long distance to some dive spots, we offer daytrips with 2 or more dives.
With a length of 23m and a width of 6m, our daytrip boat offers various degrees of pleasure. This boat has a specially designed large dive deck with sufficient space to gear up and store your equipment. The broad diving platform guarantees safe jumps into the inviting waters. Large stepladders aid easy equipment removal and return to the boat and are also suitable for beginners.
After each dive, fresh water is available for washing dive gear and shade is available to hang equipment for drying. There are also separate fresh water tanks for dive computers and underwater cameras. When diving more than 1 day with us, you can also store your dive gear in the onboard store room.
Furthermore, the boat has 4 showers. Unlike other dive boats, 'Excalibur II' has 2 toilets especially adapted to western and environmental standards.
On the upper deck, you will find 2 spacious saloons with a bar and a separate non-smoking area. Our barkeeper is keen to spoil you with delicious milkshakes, fresh fruit cocktails and other drinks. Alcoholic drinks and different types of beer are available – but only after the last day's dive! Our onboard cook produces mouthwatering western and Thai dishes for breakfast and lunch. During our Super Sunday trips, dinner is also included.
There are also two large sundeck areas, partially shaded, to relax and sunbathe on during the surface interval. Our bar and sundecks convince many a non-divers to spend a relaxing day on the boat, which makes it a great family day out.
Overall, 'Excalibur II' is a well thought out and specially designed diving boat - even for the more discerning client.
Sea Bees Diving's fleet of 8 boats means we are able to guarantee to keep our high level of service during your diving holiday. This is certainly one of the reasons we have been awarded the "Golden Dolphin" for Best Diving Centre in South East Asia & Pacific 8 times.

Give Errol Morris any topic (the more obscure and bizarre the better), and he'll likely dazzle you with what he can come up with. And as a testament to his powers of narrative force, all the famed documentarian needs is about six minutes to let his latest short, an endeavor for New York Times where he frequently writes, to say more about the JFK assassination than Oliver Stone did in his own three hour movie (which is a still great watch).
"The Umbrella Man" focuses on the lone, mysterious titular figure present in Dealey Plaza that day, who has been the subject of great debate for conspiracy theorists for decades. However, author Josiah "Tink" Thompson, who wrote the book "Six Seconds In Dallas," gives an utterly fascinating breakdown of the surprising truth about who that man was and why he was the only person in Dallas that bright, warm day, walking around with an umbrella.
"You can never on your own think up all the non-sinister, perfectly valid explanations," Thompson explains, and in Morris' typically beautiful way, and aided by a great score, we find out as always, that truth is so much stranger than fiction. This is some pretty great stuff, and the first of what Morris hopes will be a multi-part examination of the assassination (awesome). Watch below, and bear in mind, this is only a small portion of a six-hour interview Morris had with Thompson. Astounding.
david | May 15, 2013 4:53 PM
Errol Morris = Another useful idiot that tries to give an explanation for this part of the assassination plot. Bring the "dark complected man" , standing in front of umbrella man and then sitting with him after the shooting, and you see two men together working in tandem signaling the assassination team. The chance of two men together doing these things by chance is not plausible.
David | April 3, 2012 5:54 PM
The final message of this video is very moving and powerful and true...thanks very much for posting!
Anarias Mendt | December 17, 2011 9:58 AM
Too bad this short clip will now be used to claim there's no evidence of a conspiracy in the assassination.
H Moltke | December 17, 2011 7:13 AM
This is quite far from containing "more about the JFK assassination than Oliver Stone did in his own three hour movie". If anything, it simply takes the "weird things happen" tack, which is just another way of denying the criminality in our culture.
Consider the same attitude when it comes from a guy notorious for being a hack, John Stossel:
"(from Salon.com):
Stossel plays a clip from the film âGasland,â a documentary exposing the dangers of natural gas extraction for people living near the extraction sites, and then announces that it is perfectly normal for your tap water to contain highly flammable amounts of methane. âWeird stuff happens,â Stossel says. The fact that a peer-reviewed study showed that water wells close to natural gas mines had 17 times the levels of methane in the water than wells farther away from fracturing sites is just one of those nutty coincidences."
So for all the quantum-mechanical, faux-visionary explanation we have something that still has trouble coming to grips with what facts do exist.
karma | December 16, 2011 7:37 PM
anything morris ever does is tainted by the slipshod zionistic crap in his smear piece called, mr. death ... anyone disagreeing should go online and watch 1/3 a Holocaust or Eric Hunt's doc where he destroys spielberg's propaganda THE LAST DAYS OF THE BIG LIE ... wake up people and stop tossing around buzzwords like anti-semitic .... the umbrella man story has been known for years, why doesnt morris delve in Dimona like Michael Collins Piper did in FINAL JUDGMENT? I think you all know why.
R. Truitt | December 16, 2011 6:37 PM
Mr. Louie Steven Whitt did testify in 1978 for the House Assassinations Committee. In part, he told of having over something like 60 umbrellas in his lifetime. He just so happened to still have the one from Novermber 1963. When you read his actual testimony his responses to the questions make one to wonder when his nose will begin to grow. Read the facts from the testimony, please.

Game night switches things up
When it's time to change things up in the bedroom, games and other fun activities are great things to try. And with so many options, everyone is bound to find something they love.
A trip to Spencer's or an online search will yield a variety of games for couples, gag games and group games.
Erotic dice have intimate body parts on one and actions to do on the other.
A roll of two dice will tell what action to perform on what body part.
There's even a glow-in-the-dark version, which could require you to feel each other to find the body part.
Truth or dare is fun and a good way to get to know your partner. Of course, truth will uncover some questions, but dare will also tell how open one will be with sex and what they like.
There are pre-made cards with questions, or you can come up with your own questions and dares.
There is also a tower version, like Jenga, where you take turns pulling out a block and answering a question or doing the dare.
For the creative artists, there is body paint. This is totally open-ended. It can be used to trace around the body.
This is a sensual way to get to know your partner's body. Getting to know one another's bodies in an intimate way like this can be a satisfying bonding experience.
Of course, everyone knows about strip poker. You can go by the standard rules or adjust them to fit your own needs.
This can be done with two people or a group of friends who are comfortable enough with each other.
Generally, strip poker is played with a five-card draw and, in place of money, an item of clothing is the bet.
Decided by the players, clothes can be taken back or they can be lost for good.
An alternative for couples is betting sexual favors. This can be anything the two agree on and are comfortable with.
Some bets could be positions, strip teases, lap dances, a room to have sex in or something new you want to try with your partner.
Technology can provide these games and others right at your fingertips. There are apps for the dice game, truth or dare, Kamasutra for positions, sex roulette for how and where to have sex, and many others.
Decide what you want to accomplish and have a game night!
Bailey can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Council's museum PR is "laughable"
9:00am Wednesday 4th February 2009 in News By Bev Holder
PROTESTORS fighting to save Kingswinford's world famous glass museum have been left stunned at Dudley Council's latest spin campaign.
Broadfield House Glass Museum, which the council wants to close by April 2010 to help save costs, is now boasting a giant Dudley Council poster which says 'I love my museum'.
The banner, which has been hanging in the window at the Compton Drive museum, also says: "This year my council has invested more than ever in museum facilities."
Glass expert Graham Cooley told the News: "It's jaw-dropping. It shows there has been no joined up thinking within the council. The PR department, those responsible for the budget and the councillors aren't talking to each other."
Kingswinford councillor Dave Tyler said: "It's laughable - it just shows Dudley Council really hasn't got its act together looking after our heritage. I don't think they can be trusted to look after the glass heritage."
John Sanders, of the Friends of Broadfield House Glass Museum, said the plan to close Broadfield was becoming more "confused" by the day.
Meanwhile, a host of esteemed glass experts have added their support to the campaign to save the museum, which has one of the finest glass archives in the country.
Jane Spillman, of New York's prestigious Corning Museum, is among nearly 1,000 people who have signed an online petition launched by The Glass Association to fight the closure.
She said: "It would be a great shame if this internationally important museum were to be closed to the public. There is nothing else like it in the UK."
Reino Liefkes, curator of glass at London's V&A museum, has also signed the document, saying: "Broadfield House Glass Museum is a centre of excellence of national importance. It has also a key function in keeping the rich regional heritage of Stourbridge alive."
Dudley Council's cabinet voted on January 7 to close the museum and transfer its collection to Wordsley's Red House Glass Cone - to help achieve a £120,000 saving.
The decision is to be rubber-stamped as part of the council's budget plans at full council on March 2 although campaigners, councillors and MP Ian Pearson have called for proceedings to be delayed until a feasibility study has been carried out.
Councillor Karen Shakespeare, Dudley's cabinet member for the environment and culture, has since confirmed the council's directorate of the urban environment will be commisioning a study to determine options - although it has yet to be decided who will carry it out and when it will get underway.

Winter is a fantastic time to catch big lake trout through the ice. This type of fishing often requires mobility as it can take quite a bit of searching to find active lakers.
Trout, browns, brookies, and rainbows are coldwater species, so they like cold water and remain active under ice cover.
River currents prevent these waters from freezing when flatwater impoundments are ice-covered. With careful presentations, river largemouth can be caught.
When water temperatures tumble below the low-40F range, bass often move from mid-depth flats to more vertical structures. Fast-breaking edges allow bass to change depth easily, without traveling long distances.
One of the hottest tactics on the pro bass trail is working deep structure with jigworms, sometimes called shaky-head worming.
Smallmouths can winter deep in reservoirs, down to 50 feet or deeper. Wherever 50-foot flats exist, that's where they'll be whether it's in a creek arm or the main reservoir.
Flash lures are one of the most popular jigging lures for ice fishing. Potential jigging sequences are limited only by your imagination and your interpretation of how fish are reacting.
Swimming lures designed to represent real baitfish are great wintertime baits. They tend to work best in clear water and specific spots, particularly during the changing light periods of dawn and dusk, when walleyes commonly feed during the winter period.

If you'd used the word Heroin instead of diamorphine, it alters the severity of the story, and thus, the impact of the crime. It comes across as less of an issue, compared to what has actually taken place.

The Redskins hold the 6th pick in this Aprils draft. The question is what to do with that pick? The fans and the media seem to think they should stay there and draft Robert Griffin III. Does anybody think that RG3 will still be available with the 6th pick? There are plenty of QB needy teams that could try to jump ahead of the Redskins, so what do you do if that happens?
This is where I think the Redskins can be very creative, because there is a QB that might be available for the right price. That QB is Joe Webb, a 6th round pick of the Vikings back in 2010. The Vikings should be willing to entertain offers for their back-up QB. The Redskins could offer the two picks they got for McNabb and maybe throw in a 4th rounder as they already have two picks in the 4th round. Webb fits a Shanahan offense with his mobility and size (6'4" 220) plus 4.4 speed. Webb shows incredible open field awareness, and makes tacklers miss in space. His throwing motion looks solid and his deep throws are very precise. This is the type of trade that could easily be completed after the first day of the draft is completed.
Webb has shown that he can be a good QB, but there is a lack of NFL tape available. He has shown the ability to lead his team in clutch situations, and he has lead the Vikings to victory over playoff teams. Webb would have the entire off-season to work with the receivers and the coaches to not only learn the offense but to develop timing with the receivers. The Redskins must be prepared to offer a real QB contract if Webb shows well in 2012, and they cannot let him become a restricted free agent.
The two teams most likely to be trade down partners are Minnesota and Cleveland, with Cleveland being a team that has two first round picks already. The Vikings already have their QB and one of their biggest needs is interior offensive lineman, not the type of player usually drafted with the 3rd pick of the first round. The Browns have Colt McCoy and seem like they could use a huge infusion of talent, so picking up more early round picks would benefit them greatly. The wild card at 5 is the Buccaneers who just fired their coach, but maybe they are looking to trade down and acquire additional picks as well.
The teams with the biggest QB needs are Miami, Buffalo and maybe Seattle who all pick after the Redskins. Would they be willing to move up to the 3rd or 4th pick knowing the cost? We can't forget the Cowboys who may just decide that Romo is no longer the answer at QB and maybe they try for the big splash and jump up and grab RG3.
Now what do the Redskins do with pick 6 if RG3 is gone, who is a top ten pick that maybe somebody wants as bad as Atlanta wanted Julio Jones last year? There is a ton of time for things to change, but the Redskins better have a back-up plan.

The full story of why JPMorgan entered into the trades that cost it so much money may never become public. However, thanks to Jamie Dimon's testimony on Wednesday, we can conjecture a little more about the motivations behind the synthetic credit trades entered into by the bank's Chief Investment Office.
The story begins with surplus deposits. JPMorgan was perceived as safe thanks to its size and relatively good record during the 2008 crisis, so it attracted significant deposit inflows. Much of this money was lent out, but not all of it was, giving rise to the problem of what to invest it in. With government bonds paying record low rates, the bank decided, understandably, to invest some of the funds in corporate and asset-backed securities. The CIO bought over $380bn of these bonds, a very substantial position. Read more

Given the quality of "Hunger" and "Shame," it's no surprise that there's a long queue to work with director Steve McQueen, but even considering that, the cast he's put together for period epic "Twelve Years A Slave" is quite extraordinary. The film's led by one of the most exciting actors working today, Chiwetel Ejifor, who plays Solomon Northrup, a free man in the 1840s who was kidnapped and kept for the titular dozen years as a slave before escaping.
And the cast also includes McQueen's regular collaborator Michael Fassbender, megastar Brad Pitt, Scoot McNairy, Benedict Cumberbatch, Paul Giamatti, Paul Dano, Sarah Paulson, Garret Dillahunt, Ruth Negga, Taran Killam, Adepero Oduye, Alfre Woodard and Michael K. Williams, making it probably the single 2013 release that we're most excited about.
But McQueen isn't stopping there, as a set photo from the film uncovered by our Indiewire colleagues Shadow & Act reveals that he's also added one of the most talked-about actresses of the year so far to the film; albeit one who certainly isn't old enough to have seen either "Hunger" or "Shame" -- Quvenzhané Wallis, the young star of acclaimed indie hit "Beasts Of The Southern Wild." The photo reveals Wallis in costume with Ejiofor, and Shadow & Act, who've confirmed independently that Wallis is in the cast, suggest that she might be playing Northrup's daughter, although there are also reasons to believe it could be another role.
Wallis, who was only six years old when 'Beasts' was filmed (she's now eight), has received universal acclaim for her role in Benh Zeitlin's film, with many tipping her to become the youngest-ever Oscar nominee for her performance. And neatly, the new film will serve as something of a reunion for the young star, as her screen father in her debut, Dwight Henry, is also in the cast of "Twelve Years A Slave" -- the actor landed the part of 'Uncle Abram' a few weeks back.
It's unlikely to be a major role in the film, but it's exciting to see Wallis land something so exciting as her follow-up, and just as thrilling for McQueen's ludicrously talented cast to get even better. Filming is now underway, and this should be a major player in the 2014 Oscar race -- our money's on a Cannes debut for the film.

Chiwetel Ejifor is one of the most exciting actors working today!? What kind of statement is that? I'm shocked to read it.
J | August 1, 2012 2:48 PM
Was at a screening of BOTSW with one of the producers this weekend and he mentioned that she was shooting scenes for McQueen. Very exciting for her, especially with zero acting training. This little girl is already an amazing talent.
Kate | August 1, 2012 11:59 AM
I don't know how much this info's worth, but one of the guys in the cinematography department has a Twitter account and said that they were aiming for January. Whether that meant a limited release or Sundance, I'm not sure. But he's also tweeted a bit about what awards season might be like and it sounded as if this film's producers might try to start a conversation about white paternalism and black stories (see Django Unchained).
Ren | August 1, 2012 11:46 AM
How is it going to have a Cannes debut and be in the running for the 2013 Oscars? Films wishing to be contenders for the 2013 Oscars need to be released before Jan 1, 2013 and Cannes is in May of 2013. Also, Northup's daughter is not Eliza. Eliza is a completely different character in the story. His daughter's name is Elizabeth.

The Register-News
---- — MT. VERNON — Steel guitar professional stars and local favorites will be playing this weekend for the 13th Annual Southern Illinois Steel Guitar Show.
"It's been going up in attendance every year for about the last three years," said Cord Fitch, one of the organizers of the event. "We're hoping to have about 2,500 this weekend."
The event will start Thursday, and continue on Friday and Saturday. Those who would like to attend may purchase tickets for each day or for the entire three-day weekend.
The lineup will include local favorites, as well as professionals who have worked with many stars.
"We get a lot of local players, ones that live in the St. Louis area or right here in Southern Illinois," Fitch said. Many of them never get recognized. This is a chance for them to play and get recognition. ...There are a lot of professionals who come to the show, and most people wouldn't recognize their names, but they have played with some of the best and well-known stars. There is Joe Wright, who played for Charlie Pride for years; Russ Hicks, he was the staff steel guitar player on Hee Haw for all those years. Mike Sweeney, he played for Ray Price and several others over the years. We try to have a variety."
Other big names in steel guitar that will be at the event are Mike Sigler, Jerry Newberry, Eddie Dunlap and Mike Hermsmeyer. Leona Willians and Ron Williams will be back to sing, and the master of ceremonies will be Ron Head.
Fitch said this year, Rose Sinclair of Texas will be at the show, playing her non-pedal steel guitar, as well and with her will be Herb Steiner, who also plays the non-pedal steel.
"They play a lot of Texas swing and that sort of music," Fitch said.
The public will get a chance to perform for the crowd on Thursday night, with a new talent contest.
"We thought we would let people come in and sing," Fitch said. "We've always had a little talent show, but this year, we thought we'd make it worth their while."
Singers will be able to choose from a list of about 100 songs, and be accompanied by a live band in the competition. First place will win $250 and a trophy; second place will receive $150 and a trop0hy; third place will win $50 and a trophy and fourth place will receive a trophy.
"Anybody is welcome to come and have fun," Fitch said.
The fun will take place at the Holiday Inn, Tickets are $12 for Thursday; $22 for Friday and $22 for Saturday. A three-day ticket, which will encompass all events, will be $45.
For more information, contact Fitch at 927-3158; 267-0696 or 967-4635.
The Southern Illinois Steel Guitar Show is sponsored by Southern Illinois Productions and the Mt. Vernon Convention and Visitors Bureau. Information about the Southern Illinois productions is available at www.southernillinoisproductions.org

Toronto rapper Drake is currently vying for the king of hip-hop crown, with his most recent full-length release, Nothing Was the Same, enjoying the second-best opening week sales numbers of 2013 (behind Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience) so far.
Now, the single from it that peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, "Hold On, We're Going Home," gets the remix treatment from none other than Miami rap kingpin, Rick Ross (hear it below, via Miss Info).
For the official "Maybach Music Group Remix" version of Drake's hit single, the tempo has been sped up, with Ross' distinctive growl popping up right from the start of the subtly reconfigured song.
While Drake prepares to launch his "Would You Like a Tour?" jaunt with openers Miguel and Future on Oct. 18 in Pittsburgh, Rick Ross recently announced that his sixth studio album, Mastermind, is due to hit retailers on December 17, in time for the holiday shopping rush.
Ross will embark on his own (albeit much shorter) eight-city tour of the States starting in Detroit on November 12, winding up in the rapper's home base of Miami on November 23.

With so much hype built in for Undertaker's return to WWE and the added gimmick of Monday Night Raw going "Old School" last week, the show drew an average of over five million viewers for USA. There was a drop this week, naturally, but it wasn't too terrible despite the absence of both The Rock and John Cena, the two men scheduled to headline WrestleMania 29 on April 7 in New Jersey.
Last night's (March 11, 2013) show garnered a 3.36 rating and an average of 4.81 million viewers for all three hours. Here's how the three hours break down, and yes, the same pattern that has held true for a long while now rears its ugly head once again.
Hour one: 4.98 million
Hour two: 4.89 million
Hour three: 4.57 million
Those are strong numbers no matter which way you slice it, but it seems curiosity on how WWE would treat the death of Paul Bearer (click here to find out how they did) drove a strong first hour. Then again, we are on the "Road to WrestleMania" and with no major competition currently in play, the first two hours have been solid for weeks now.
It's that pesky third hour that is still seeing a drop.
Still, it's been a surprise that WWE viewers adjusted to the earlier time slot this fast. And with plans in place for Raw to remain three hours at least through SummerSlam, it should be interesting to see if the company can figure out how to turn around the turn off in the third hour.
This may be a permanent move after all, Cagesiders. That okay with you?

With the November 13 fight between Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito now good to go following Margarito's licensing in Texas this evening, the undercard for the event at Cowboys Stadium is already starting to get some talk flowing.
Those who hoped for a 118-pound title fight between Fernando Montiel and Nonito Donaire can keep waiting, it appears. That fight might wind up in early 2011 at this rate. Montiel-Donaire has been discussed for a long time now (before Montiel beat Hozumi Hasegawa), and it's still just idle chatter for the most part.
Most notable so far is Rick Reeno reporting at BoxingScene.com that Kelly Pavlik is a possibility. The former middleweight champ has been very quiet since losing his crown to Sergio Martinez on April 17, with only his declining a rematch coming out of Youngstown. There's been talk that he would move up to super middleweight, and then talk that he'd stay at 160 for the time being. Reeno says that a Pavlik fight in Arlington would be at a max weight of 164 or so, with Top Rank looking to "test" Pavlik.
The middleweight ranks are thin for "tests," which in boxing promoter speak usually means a journeyman who would be a serious underdog but a mild threat, a guy who can give rounds. I still think Peter Manfredo Jr. would be a nice comeback opponent for Pavlik from a Pavlik standpoint, but Manfredo recently signed with Lou DiBella and seems to have serious intentions of building a real career at 160.
Speculation: I wouldn't be shocked to see Top Rank re-visit the idea of Pavlik facing John Duddy, whose career has peaked with his loss to Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in June. Once upon a time, Pavlik-Duddy was seen as a middleweight championship fight that would draw a crowd in the northeast. Now, it would just be a fight between a down but not out former champ and a clear also-ran. Brian Vera's always willing to fight anyone, too, and always provides good action. Lajuan Simon is a former title challenger who has won two straight. Andy Kolle has been on a roll since getting knocked out by Paul Williams. This is the sort of competition I expect they're looking at.
Boxing Scene also reported that Guillermo Rigondeaux is still expected to be a featured part of the undercard, but there are two opponents rumored now. Both would be big steps up in class for him, and both are also the sort of fighter that Rigondeaux can feast upon. Former titlist Ricardo Cordoba is one, and Bernabe Concepcion is the other. Concepcion is coming off of a second round TKO loss to featherweight titlist Juan Manuel Lopez in July. Cordoba has won three straight over iffy competition since losing a war to Bernard Dunne in March 2009. Either is a nice fight on paper and probably action-packed.
I'd also expect another Mexican name of some repute to be featured on the card, even if it's just Alfonso Gomez or somebody. An easy fight for Marco Antonio Barrera might also move a few extra tickets.
Update: Lem Satterfield of FanHouse reports that Mike Jones will also be part of the undercard. Jesus Soto Karass, Lanardo Tyner, David Estrada and Ed Paredes are possible opponents. His promoter, Russell Peltz, added this:
"I asked Mike if he would rather Berto for the title or Soto Karass in Dallas, and he said that he would rather fight Berto," said Peltz. "HBO, I'm told, actually agreed to the fight, but I understood that Berto's people turned it down."

Now that we know a certain rotund first baseman won't be part of the Nats 2012 lineup, we can start to make predictions about this year's team with a little more certainty. Most sensible folks wouldn't try this at least until spring training, but I've dusted off my somewhat rosy-colored crystal ball and am ready to make some
well-informed predictions wild-ass guesses about a bunch of Nats-related performances in the 2012 season. So FWIW (not much, I'm sure), here's what I see for the coming year.
Leading the offense, I see a big year from Ryan Zimmerman, whether he's extended before the season or not. He stays healthy, has a career offensive year, plays his usual stellar D, and finally gets some recognition outside the DC area (All-Star selection, a top ten finish in MVP voting).
I see Adam LaRoche being the usual (non-2011) Adam LaRoche -- something like .271, 24 HR, 88 RBI. I see him sticking around the whole year, as his first half is (typically) not strong enough to make him really attractive trade bait.
Jayson Werth becomes a lot more popular with the DC faithful. I don't see him returning to his 2010 PHL level - but something like .260/.365/.465 will be useful, and his willingness to handle CF (and to do so fairly capably) for a chunk of the season will win over the bulk of the fandom.
Michael Morse is not exposed -- too much. I see his BA and OBP declining a bit, but the 30 HR power is still there.
Here's a surprise: I see a Bernadina/Cameron/(or someone) platoon turning in an extended period (say 2 months) of decent CF play far better than the black hole we have become accustomed to. The crystal ball seems to indicate that one of them will then get hurt, or will crater, or something -- but by then it will be Harper time.
As for young Mr. Harper, I see him coming up maybe June-ish, getting nearly 300 major league ABs before the season's done. He'll struggle at first (of course), and his final numbers won't look so great (maybe .242, 9 HR, 39 RBI), but there will be enough Harper-esque moments in August and September to make us look forward eagerly to 2013.
In the middle infield, I see that at years end we will notice that Desi and Espi have each taken a step forward in their development. But they will also each continue to be streaky during the season, so the progress won't be that obvious at times.
I see Stephen Lombardozzi filling the role of a useful utility man, a pinch hitter who can get on base, and a pinch runner who doesn't get picked off.
Not sure that I see anything clearly about our two young catchers. Have to let you know if that clears up.
On the pitching staff, I see good things from the Big Three. Gio Gonzalez does not disappoint, turning in a season as good as his last two with Oakland. JZim(nn) pitches as well as last year, but with an extra 40 IP and better run support his W-L numbers are a lot gaudier, maybe 17-8. Strasburg is Strasburg, but I do see one or two scares when because of a little twinge and some extra cautious handling he misses a start or three, maybe even goes on the DL for a while. I don't necessarily see him even getting to his 150-160 IP limit, but that also means he gets to start some meaningful games in September.
Chien-Ming Wang is a dependable back of the rotation starter, with 180-200 IP and a sub-4 ERA. John Lannan isn't.
Due to Lannan's troubles and Strasburg's missed starts, Ross Detwiler gets a real chance to show his stuff. He doesn't seize the opportunity, though, mixing a couple of flashy starts with a bunch of blah ones. But I see a few nice fill-in starts from someone further down the food chain --Gorzellany, Stammen, maybe even Maya or Meyers or Solis? (Can't tell - it's pretty hazy. But I do see Tommy Milone, 3000 miles away, turning in a real nice unnoticed year for Oakland, better than Lannan or Det -- or even Mark Buerhle down in Miami.)
The bullpen is good. Clippard's not as great as last year - who could be? -- but there are no weak links (coughSlatencough) and Storen remains strong so things are fine there.
Overall, I see this as an 85-90 win team -- hey, I said it was rose-colored crystal -- that stays in contention deep into September. I don't think I see any post-season play, not even the second wild card (is that official yet? I don't remember). But it should be a fun season.
Feel free to tell me what I've been smoking.
