Two people are dead after a wreck in Anderson County Friday evening.
The wreck happened around 9:16 p.m. on Highway 28 By-Pass, near Monitor Road. Anderson County Coroner Don McCown says the victims have been identified as 68 year old Henry Eugene Jones, of Easley, and his wife, 70 year old Mildred Jones.
According to family, the couple was headed home to Easley from their grandson's soccer game in Anderson County when the accident happened. McCown says the Jones' 1998 Chevy S10 pickup collided with another car, and the two were killed instantly. Both were wearing their seatbelts.

There are just lots of topical preparations to reduce the appearance of cellulite. Cellulite make your skin look fatty and dull. Getting rid of them would mean happiness for most women. Looking for a good miracle solution to cellulite would mean a lot.
A topical application is simple to use yet would bring significant result to your skin. One solution you definitely would try is a cellulite serum. It's better than those cream, lotion and gel. Find out why.
What is a Serum?
Serums are growing big nowadays. Beauty experts have realized that these cosmetics are more potent and concentrated giving better and faster effect. A serum is a combination of water and oil-based solution.
It's lighter than any other topical applications. Its greatest advantage is that it can contain active substances that can work on your skin. Serums also moisturize the skin, revive and repair various skin problems like cellulite.
It's also better since the skin can quickly absorb it since its light and will not make skin greasy. Even the deeper part of the skin is reached with longer effects that can even last for months.
Why is Cellulite Serum better?
Cellulite serum is definitely better than others because with faster absorption and prolonged action, it can work on those cellulite and minimize them. Serums that are best for cellulite are those that contain fat burning agents like l-carnitine.
L-carnitine works by dissolving those fats that make up the cellulite. After few weeks of application, you can definitely notice that your skin has improved.
With continued use, you can make those cellulite less visible. Serums can be applied day and night. It's very light on the skin. It will not make the skin oily or shiny.
What are best Cellulite Serums to use?
- Nivea Good-bye Cellulite Skin Firming Serum Q10 plus – It's a very good product in making the skin tight and reduce cellulites. It's easy to apply and you don't need to massage it into your body part. It's quick-absorbing making the skin soft and smooth. After 10 days, you'll notice an improvement on your cellulites. Q10 is an effective anti-cellulite agent. It also contains L-carnitine which is a fat burning agent. Nivea is scientifically tested, so try it for yourself.
- i-Lipo Serum is one herbal treatment that is great in removing cellulites in the body. It aids in bringing cellulites into the lymph for drainage. All you need is just a small amount of serum and massage into the cellulite area twice a day. The circulation of the blood makes the drainage of fats possible.
- Slim Anticellulite Serum – This serum contains fat burning and fat building prevention properties. It also contains L-carnitine and ivy extract. Ivy extract is effective in stopping fat accumulation in the body. A combination of fat dissolution and prevent works great for cellulites.

Nothing!! Reasonably expensive for a very 'budget class' type of facility.
Room smelt of smoking; hotel did offer to change room. Mattress uncomfortable. Still had plastic cover on it under sheets. Spent all night sweating because of the plastic 'bag' containing the mattress. Breakfast Room was horrible; like a low level cafe.My husband booked this hotel from Australia; I didn't realise it was a 2-star. The room was clean enough. Not sure what a 2-star hotel is supposed to be like, however, we have cancelled our 2nd night there which was to be Aug 7th. The breakfast was ordinary with bananas put out which were way past their use by date. The whole experience was not uplifting & not really cheap. This hotel is charging a high nightly tariff given it really is a 'budget class' facility.

Price, while was high for what you get, it is still one of the better deals in Anchorage. And if you wanted to cook you'd save a lot here.
Over all it is rundown and needs some TLC, however they do call themselves Backpackers and they offer the lowest prices so I would say they are true to their expected clientele.

Your View: La Jollans should have input on public art
By John Beaver
La Jolla
I know the several public art displays are on private property, but they are there for all of us to see. Therefore, I am concerned about the arrogance of the La Jolla Community Foundation to assume they know what is good public art.
I've not heard of any public forum at the La Jolla Community Planning Association or the La Jolla Town Council. I can accept the art, but I 'm not impressed with any of the renderings and they don't speak well for the community. They are much like the "cows" that were sprinkled around La Jolla and did not gain much public interest, let alone bids. I think the LJCF should stop its plans until the citizens have had a chance to review them.
Editor's note: The foundation board does not make decisions on the artists but looks to a committee for recommendations. Last week's story includes a list of the art experts on the committee. See it at tinyurl.com/876umtq.
Also, once selections are made, the board apprises La Jolla's Planned District Ordinance Committee about locations in advance of the work, although it is not required to do so as the murals are privately funded on private property and do not qualify as "signs."

One of the hockey sites I frequent often here on SBNation is Behind the Net. On their corner of the blogosphere, they take very seriously the subject of statistics in hockey.
Today, they posted an analysis of the age-old adage that there is such a thing as too much rest in the playoffs.

[Editor's Note: With the Islanders and Senators meeting tonight for the first time since the Comrie/Campoli trade, Peter (of Senators blog Silver Seven) and I swapped thoughts -- and English...
Two Islanders bloggers debate what more Garth Snow could have done at the NHL Trade Deadline, and who the next Islanders captain will be.
"We signed him last summer [to a three-year deal] for a reason. We like Brendan Witt. He's a fearless leader, a big part of our room.">>Garth Snow to ESPN.com. Presumably that reason was the 2007-08 Witt rather than the 08-09 version. But Witt has held his head high and even publicly backed Scott Gordon after being the only one on record to question Go-Go's system. Should be interesting to see how the rest of his year plays out.
Talking shop with Islanders GM Garth Snow -- or not.
Bill Guerin was an expensive hired gun for the Islanders, but he did the job he was brought into do before being traded to the Penguins for a measly conditional pick.
Bill Guerin has finally been traded: After the original much-anticipated deal fell through, he goes to Pittsburgh for a 5th-or-greater pick.
Two hours left, with Islanders fans waiting for one not-very-noteworthy deal ... are we getting nervous yet? Just as Mark Recchi moves to Boston, the original Bill Guerin deal is said to be off (NHL Live). Coincidence? Meanwhile, the Isles are supposedly in touch with Pittsburgh, and Chicago is still hunting a center. If the Pens want Guerin, do they hold all the leverage? Are the buyers dwindling? Will Snow feel compelled to make a Guerin move no matter what, or will '10 minutes' patch things up? And has Calgary bought up the whole freaking store?
Islanders fans digest how UFA contract extensions announced today will affect the market for their own free agents-to-be.
To the disappointment of many but the shock of few, not much happened on the "extra" day before the NHL's trade deadline, as teams focused on waivers, clearing space, and readying for tomorrow.

Migraine headaches
| related questions
Originally Published: January 27, 1995 - Last Updated / Reviewed On: August 1, 2008
|Share this
My wife has terrible migraine headaches. She has tried caffeine, vitamins, and Motrin. Motrin works occasionally. Any suggestions?
—Low tolerance
Dear Low tolerance,
There are three major types of headaches: tension (most common), vascular, and organic (rarest of the three and associated with an underlying medical condition, such as a tumor, infection, disease, or hemorrhage). Migraines fall under the vascular headache category, being caused by constriction and then dilation of blood vessels in the head. Migraines are severe headaches, lasting from several minutes to several days, often accompanied by light and noise sensitivity, nausea, possible vomiting, and sometimes disturbances of vision (known as auras, which include flashing lights and blind spots). According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Migraine Information Center, migraines affect approximately twenty-six million Americans, nearly 75 percent of whom are women. Occasionally, people experience only a single migraine; more typically, however, they have recurrent episodes at varying intervals.
Migraines seem to run in families. It is believed that migraines can be caused by biochemical changes in the brain, particularly a low level of the neurotransmitter serotonin. People with migraines do not have enough serotonin to quiet the body's response to various triggers, such as:
- certain foods
- strong smells
- excessive hunger
- changes in altitude, weather, or temperature
- bright lights
- rising or dropping stress levels
- sleep difficulties
- depression
- extreme noise
- in some women, hormonal fluctuations, particularly estrogen, that accompany menstruation, birth control pills, pregnancy, and estrogen replacement therapy
Migraines come in two types: common and classic. In common migraines, which affect about 80 percent of people with migraines, the pain of the headache develops slowly, sometimes mounting to a throbbing pain that is made worse by the slightest movement or noise. The pain is often, but not always, on one side of the head, and usually occurs with nausea and sometimes vomiting (many recover after they have vomited). The difference between common and classic migraines is the classic variety are accompanied by auras. Most people find that they recover more quickly from a migraine if they can sleep in a darkened, quiet room and use an ice pack.
The best-known way to prevent migraine headaches is to avoid any known triggers. Triggers can be different for different individuals, however individuals can often identify the triggers that affect them. Keeping a careful diary can help pinpoint triggers, including certain foods or ingredients, such as:
- alcoholic beverages (often those containing sulfites, such as red wine)
- aged cheeses (because they have tyramine)
- chocolate
- citrus fruits
- fermented products
- monosodium glutamate (MSG)
- preserved meats (due to nitrates and nitrites)
- possibly aspartame
These foods may need to be limited or cut out of the eating plan as they have been implicated in setting off migraines in many people. Managing stress levels, treating any underlying depression, quitting smoking (if already a smoker), limiting salt and caffeine intake, and following regular eating, exercise, and sleep schedules can also help. Not having enough sleep or oversleeping is a common cause of migraines. Try getting up at the same time each day. If it's the weekend, regardless of bedtime, arise at the usual time anyway, have something to eat, wash up, and then go back to bed or take a nap later on in the day. Relaxation, physical therapy, and massage can help the migraine-affected as well.
If making lifestyle changes is not enough in managing migraine episodes, then the person may need to see a health care provider to discuss more powerful treatment options, including trying different medications or alternating between two or more meds depending on the type of migraine s/he has. Follow directions carefully and avoid overmedicating and overusing pain relievers (i.e. chronic or daily use), which could lead to rebound headaches as the last dose leaves the system.
Much progress has been made recently in the field of migraine therapy. Powerful new drug offerings have made a dramatic difference in improving the quality of life of many people who have acute or chronic migraines. One such medication group is the triptans (e.g., sumatriptan, naratriptan, rizatriptan, and zolmitriptan), which are available in several forms and doses. Depending on a person's medical history and what drugs and supplements s/he is currently taking, a health care provider will determine which medications may work best.
Considering there are more migraine treatment options than ever before, your wife could benefit from seeing a health care provider to get a proper diagnosis and to discuss her prescription possibilities. She can work with her provider in coming up with a migraine management plan that'll meet her needs and be effective for her. If she is a student at Columbia, she can make an appointment by calling x4-2284 or logging on to Open Communicator.
For more information about migraines, check out:
Best of luck as you and your wife explore the sources of her migraines. Hopefully she'll find some lasting relief soon.

I became intrigued by the Nash/Dragic lineup that Gentry played during the 4th quarter since JRich was ice cold. Personally, I've always though Dragic had a lot of a Ginobili 2-guard in him and I think he could really thrive in that role, especially playing alongside Nash. So my idea was... what if the Suns traded JRich and Earl Clark to Cleveland for Mo Williams and Anderson Varejao. It works salary-wise and those two are apparently on the trading block with Cleveland looking to rebuild. The trade give Cleveland an expiring contract and a young player with potential to grow (the same young player Asst. Cleveland GM David Griffin drafted in Phoenix). Perhaps a protected 1st round pick would need to be included by Phoenix. The Suns benefit by getting a terrific big man defender/rebounder in Varejao who would start alongside Frye in the front court. Lopez comes off the bench as a Varejao in training, Dragic slides into JRich's starting role. A stretch at this point, but he's good enough to play the minutes and develop there. Mo Williams could be the 3rd guard off the Suns bench a la Jason Terry in Dallas. This would be our depth chart:
PG Nash MoWilliams
SG Dragic Dudley Childress
SF Hill Turkoglu
PF Frye Warrick Lawal
C Varejao Lopez Barrron
Seems like a much better defensive unit to me having a big active shaggy-haired center in the middle at all times. Thoughts?

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
styledotcom OMG. Remember this? Summer camp flashbacks in full force. stylem.ag/1sXQxWy pic.twitter.com/rJGfIx3sQF
With the haute couture starting today—as you read this, I'll have already taken in Dior—I wanted to make sure I had my fill of American culture before I decamped to these French shores last night. That's why, on Saturday, I did two things that were quintessentially American: exercise (which I have never seen a Frenchie do), and drink beer and eat hot dogs at a Madison Square Garden boxing match.The first one was easy enough: SoulCycle, the "sanctuary for cardio exercise," as its founder Julie Rice calls it, recently opened its swanky new Tribeca location. A friend introduced me to the super-cycling program this summer in the Hamptons, where I'd sweat next to the likes of Kelly Ripa and Hana Soukupova (which did nothing for my body issues, but never mind that), so I was glad to find a new location near me in the city. SoulCycle's big-name clientele has followed it to this location, too. Saturday's class—with the teacher reminding us loudly to consider Haitian charities, and then announcing, "Let's hear it for Chelsea Clinton!"—seemed odd at first, but I looked over and sure enough, there was the sweat-drenched former First Daughter. As it turned out, she had hosted a special 90-minute class last week, raising $66,810 for earthquake victims.Later that evening, changing into drier—and, if I may say so, more butch—attire, I headed to Madison Square Garden with Jen Brill and Interview's Christopher Bollen to watch a new pal of mine, John Duddy, spar a few rounds in the ring. Duddy showed us why he's known as the Derry Destroyer (a reference to his hometown in Ireland) by defeating his opponent in the first round. No, really, blink and you missed it: He knocked the guy out in 1:52. Ah, but good Irish boy that he is, he even feigned humility when we met up after the match. With our buddy out of the ring so quickly, I whiled away the rest of the evening's fights appreciating some of the looks in the audience, which consisted of enormous amounts of embellished leather jackets, hand tattoos, bling, headwear, and lots and lots of color from the extremely outgoing (OK, drunk) audience. Let's see the couture compete with that!

'To Be Loved & Understood': Take a Look Inside the Creative Process of Comedian Patton Oswalt
All creative individuals have their own ways of working and specific quirks about their methods. I always think it's fascinating to watch professionals at the top of any creative or artistic field, and see what parallels can be drawn between those fields and filmmaking. Patton Oswalt happens to be one of those rare few who has had major success in a number of different areas, including comedy, acting, and screenwriting, and even if you don't recognize his face, you just might recognize his voice as Remy from Ratatouille. In the episode below of Thrash Lab's Rituals, get an in-depth look at Patton Oswalt's creative process. More »
The Day the Gatekeeper Died: Patton Oswalt on DIY Creative Careers
This is not new. It is so old, in fact, that it has been on the internet for over two months, so feel free to skip this if you've already heard it. However, I've found myself sharing Patton Oswalt's recent keynote speech on comedy with more than one filmmaker/actor/creative over the past few months when they tell me about trying to make it via "traditional" routes. So here it is, because if you replace the term "comedian" with "filmmaker" it applies equally well. More »
Neil Gaiman's Advice on What You Need to Know when Embarking on a Creative Career
It's that time of year when waves of freshly minted graduates head out to make their way in the world. It's both an exciting and daunting moment — there's all the possibility and anxiety of the unknown, mixed with the uncertainty of one's ability to do what one has set out to do. This is especially so for anyone pursuing the creative life. If you're one of those nutty folks, or even someone already well on their way, Neil Gaiman offers some great advice in this commencement speech he delivered at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. As Gaiman puts it, it's "[e]verything I could think of that someone starting out on a career in the arts right now might need to know." More »

Storm preparations are underway on Virginia's coast. Deltaville is one town often hit hard by storms so emergency workers and folks in the region are preparing ahead of Hurricane Sandy's arrival.
Beginning Saturday afternoon, the Middlesex County Courthouse will serve as an emergency operations center. Government officials from the area will be able to respond to emergencies stemming from the hurricane.
Deltaville officials expect they'll see wind gusts up to 65 miles per hour and at least five inches of rain.
"One of the things we'll probably experience is a lot of power outages due to trees coming down," said Matt Walker, County Administrator for Middlesex County. "We'll maybe see a road being closed temporarily because a tree comes down."
The county government isn't the only one preparing for the storm.
The Mowbray family is preparing for their ninth hurricane in 30 years. The Richmond natives have had the same home through them all.
They say, they've learned each storm is different and you can only prepare so much.
"You just don't know, you can't do anything," said Ernie Mowbray. "Mother nature, that's what you're facing."

News: Lil Wayne Promises To Get Stupid On Delayed "Dedication 4"
Friday, Aug 31, 2012 8:34AM
Grammy-winning rapper Lil Wayne may not have won fans over by delaying his highly-anticipated The Dedication 4 for a second time but he is now boasting about its quality days away from its release.
Although brief, Weezy F. Baby took to Twitter and hyped up the pushed back effort.
"D4 is stuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupid.," he tweeted August 31st. (Lil Wayne's Twitter)
If all goes accordingly, the new mixtape will finally arrive on Labor Day.
Lil Wayne's "Dedication 4" was supposed to be released on August 30, but it didn't come out as scheduled. It turns out that the new mixtape, a collaboration with DJ Drama, has been postponed for a second time. While Weezy promises on his official website to have the street album "coming soon," Drama is more willing to reveal when exactly fans will be able to download the mixtape. "Sep. 3rd. #d4 .....," the disc jockey tweets the new release date. (Ace Showbiz)
Last week, Weezy hinted at the new project dropping on August 30th.
"D4 aug-30," he tweeted August 23rd in reference to the upcoming mixtape. (Lil Wayne's Twitter)
Wayne previously cited Atlanta rapper 2 Chainz's debut album for the first delay.
"I know I was supposed to drop that Dedication 4 tonight - but listen, my homeboy 2 Chainz just dropped his album yesterday. That's my real, real, real good homeboy right there and I refuse to put any attention on me when the spotlight, everybody's eyes, everybody's attention and everybody's focus should be on my n*gga 2 Chainz's album Based On A T.R.U. Story. So therefore I ain't giving you b*tches Dedication 4 yet. I'ma give it to ya'll in another week or so. But I ain't gonna lie, I ain't finished that motherf*cker. I've been skating and sh*t, falling and sh*t and all that type of sh*t, but I'll give it to you like, next week. Stop trippin' pimp." (Bread Over Bed)

The Phoenix Coyotes took the lead early and controlled most of the first period of Game 2 against the Nashville Predators, but the Preds were able to find a goal late in the period. Phoenix have had more shots and have been aggressive on the forecheck, but got beat by a quick transition play with under three minutes remaining in the period to make it 1-1 after 20 minutes of play.
On both goals, the highlight was the primary assist much more than the shot. Antoine Vermette scored the opening goal for Phoenix 8:32 into the first period, with Keith Yandle making a spectacular pass to set him up for an easy tap-in.
Kevin Klein's assist to Andrei Kostitsyn on Nashville's goal was even better. It might have been more lucky than skillful, but it was spectacular-looking nonetheless. He reached behind his back to play a great pass to Kostitsyn, who got by Shane Doan to create a two-on-one for his team and finished off the break with some great stick work and a shot poked past Mike Smith.
Even though they had a defensive lapse late to give up a goal to Nashville, the first period was a good one for the Coyotes. They were very physical and aggressive, tallying 19 hits to Nashville's seven, and they managed to stay out of the penalty box while doing it. The home crowd will be hoping they can keep it up and that Andrei Kostitsyn's goal didn't change the momentum of the game significantly.
For more on the two teams, check in with Predators blog On the Forecheck and Coyotes blog Five For Howling.

This is just breaking on Yahoo! Sports, D'antoni has resigned as coach of the Knicks. I was hesitant to jump on the "Fire Nate" bandwagon until last night. But would it make sense? Keep Felton, who thrived under D'antoni's system in NY, and reunite them next season.
It would also provide a change of the guard for the Blazers and put the team in a totally different direction, which maybe reinvigorates some players that have, apparently, just burned out with the current regime.
I think Nate's been a good coach, but if it's time to change directions, at least you know the direction D'antoni will go with the team will be fast-paced and FUN TO WATCH.
Maybe a long shot, but with all the other speculation going on, why not speculate about this?

When a company starts to grow and increase its amount of business, it pays special attention to its production and customer service departments to meet this increase in demand. However, often not enough attention is paid to the evolution that the company's AP department experiences, limiting the strategy to increasing the number of employees in this department.
It is one of most hidden secrets, especially in the range of luxury hospitality products. One of the essential ingredients necessary to reach excellency and to fix prices with more liberty, is the provider list.
The providers have a fundamental importance, and can be a key piece that contributes to the successor failure of a company.
Once a company realizes the need for the Accounts Payable department to become more efficient through the use of a good invoice workflow tool, it is important that the implementation process of said solution is carried out following a route plan that allows for an easy and agile adaptation, without obstacles and which minimizes the impact on employees.
At the moment, many medium and large companies have passed through a serious process of adjustments to survive the crisis. In general, reductions in the workforce babe been prevalent, but there is still a great potential for savings in a good transformation in the functions of purchasing and expense control in the company.
Often, there are companies that become interested in the automation of accounts payable, and even decide to implement it, without having a clear vision or sense of how their AP process is going to be from that moment on, nor how it will affect their employees.
At the same time, there are AP managers and professionals who do not even consider taking this step for their company because they have a complex image in mind, and do not see the consequences that this change can bring to process that are functioning, more or less, well.
In the area of Accounts Payable it is well-known that the final destination of a provider's invoice is its recording in the accounts, and all the improvements that we introduce in the provider invoice receipt process is directed to a reduction of the accounting cycle so as to reduce the cost of the process to the maximum possible.
Within an automated provider invoice process 4 large phases can be defined:
In the transforming phenomenon that the European business sector is currently experiencing, with the disappearance of some large and medium sized companies and the appearance of a multitude of new small companies (many of them sole trader), the provider profile is also changing, especially in the case of the services sector.
It is normal in projects to improve the Accounts Payable process to review the quality of the information contained in the Vendor master record.
The accounts payable is a process, which in the majority of companies, is eminently manual and consumes an elevated number of resources, it is estimated that an AP employee process an average of only 10,000 invoices per year.
In easyap we are that month after month an unstoppable growth in the number of invoices received via email, the majority of them being PDF documents. This has been provoked by a change in the law, hitch took effect on the 1st of January 2013, governing the obligations of invoices. To give a boost to electronic invoicing it equates paper invoices and electronic invoices, including PDF, which have validity as long as they comply with certain requisites.

The Pro Bowl safety rejected a "substantial offer" from the Buffalo Bills, and it is now unlikely that he will re-sign with the team before the start of free agency, as reported by Joe Buscaglia of WGR 550. The team is not expected to use the franchise tag, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media.
Monday marks the deadline for the Bills to tag Byrd. If the two sides can't reach a deal by then, they have until the beginning of free agency on March 11.
Rapoport reports that the Bills offered Byrd a contract that would have made him the highest paid safety in the league, at least for a portion of the deal. Byrd turned it down, and seems to be eyeing an even bigger payday as one of the top defenders in free agency.
Buffalo tagged Byrd last offseason after the two sides failed to reach long-term contract. That led to a contentious holdout before the safety finally agreed to the deal.
Buffalo Rumblings doesn't like the look of the Bills letting one of their best players walk out the door.
On the surface, that's bad business, letting one of your best players leave without securing any sort of compensation in return. ... If the report is true, and 4 p.m. ET passes [on Monday] without a long-term deal in place for Byrd and without the Bills having applied the franchise tag on him, it simply will look very bad for an organization that typically only makes its pleasant headlines in the winter months.
If Byrd does end up hitting the market, he'll be one of the hottest names available. Here are three teams that could make a serious push at signing him.
Kansas City Chiefs
Kendrick Lewis struggled mightily in Kansas City last season, and the team is expected to let him walk in free agency. That means they're in the market for a free safety. Pairing Byrd with Pro Bowler strong safety Eric Berry would make for a scary secondary. Unfortunately, KC would have to shift some cap room around to make it happen.
Atlanta Falcons
The Falcons are expected to release Thomas DeCoud, and reportedly have strong interest in landing Byrd. They've already dropped cornerback Asante Samuel, so they badly need help in the defensive backfield.
Cleveland Browns
Rapoport reported during the NFL Combine that the Browns are targeting Byrd. Their own Pro Bowl safety, T.J. Ward, is scheduled to hit free agency himself, so they'll need a replacement if he walks. Byrd spent last season working with recently hired Browns coach Mike Pettine, who had a one-year stay in Buffalo as the defensive coordinator.

Anyone interested in creating a space (or using this one here) to talk about the pre-season games that we might be watching before the real show begins? I imagine there will be a thread for tomorrow's Montreal game, but I wonder if anyone else say the Calgary-Edmonton game on Saturday and wanted to comment on that, I was disappointed with the outcome -- how any team can have a three goal lead with 10 minutes left and then lose in a shootout is just awful. It was great seeing Andrew Ference paired with Darnell Nurse -- I think that could be a really beneficial combination -- but he took a late penalty which allowed Calgary to score (and tie it) on the power play. Damn.
I'm also keeping track of the Canadiens/Sabres game going on now, just to maybe take the Canadiens' temperature for tomorrow's game against Boston. It's kind of hard to say who I'd like to win here, though. :)

Just before the snow tapered off Friday afternoon, Agawam firefighters were called into action.
They responded to a chimney fire at a house on Bunker Hill Road in the Feeding Hills section of the city.
Fire officials say there was less than $1,000 in damage and the fire could have been prevented if the chimney was properly cleaned.

MADISON (WKOW) -- On the Friday before Labor Day weekend two Republican Senators introduced a bill that would allow any or all recreational activities on the proposed Gogebic Taconite iron mine site in northern Wisconsin to be prohibited.
The bill, introduced by Sen. Tom Tiffany (R-Hazelhurst) and Sen. Glenn Grothman (R-West Bend) is already set for a public hearing on Wednesday at 11:00 a.m. in Room 300 Southeast of the State Capitol.
The proposed mining site is located on property that is designated by the DNR as Managed Forest Land. Such land that is designated as "open" by the DNR must be available for hunting, fishing, hiking, sight-seeing and cross-country skiing. Senate Bill 278 would exempt Managed Forest Land that is within a proposed mining site from having to be open for those recreational activities.
The bill would instead allow the mining company and the DNR to enter into an agreement on which recreational activities would be allowed during certain times of the year.
Some local officials who appeared at a public hearing on the Gogebic Taconite iron mine pre-application process in Hurley last month expressed concern the company would be doing bulk sampling on the property during a period when deer hunters regularly use the land.

Two weeks ago I reported that Janet Jackson had begun early talks with Simon Cowell and the producers of Fox's The X Factor to join the show as judge when it begins its second season.
The producers approached Jackson when their original plans to start negotations with Whitney Houston fell through due to her sudden death. In fact, talks were originally planned with Houston the very week after the Grammys.
However now Jackon has taken herself out of consideration for the The X Factor gig saying tersely that "it just wouldn't be possible" for her to join the show. So now the producers are back to square one.
Any of you have any suggestions?
Donella | March 4, 2012 3:09 PM
Smart move, Janet.
Laura | March 3, 2012 7:26 PM
@ Sergio. Where do you get these pictures of Janet Jackson? She looks like she's in her 50's in this photo. Come on, there got to better pictures of her.
Cherish | March 3, 2012 4:28 PM
It's nice to see that X Factor clearly wants a Black female recording artist as judge. Interesting...
Maybe Toni Braxton, if it doesn't conflict with Braxton Family Values. Too bad Khandi Burress from Exscape have that new show (it doesn't look good to me) she would have made an excellent judge as well.
B | March 3, 2012 3:26 PM
I personally think Patti LaBelle would be fantastic.
Shanea | March 3, 2012 12:50 PM
I think Mariah Carey would be great. She's got the skills and experience to be a great judge and mentor plus the big personality that they need to bring in ratings.
Michelle | March 3, 2012 11:03 AM
I think Natalie Cole would be a good judge on Xfactor. Mariah Carey would also be good.

Boston -- Investigators said bond is unlikely for a Thomas county man awaiting arraignment.
Police arrested 19-year-old Dionte Shaw for an armed robbery at a Boston convenience store Tuesday. He's charged with two counts of armed robbery and several counts of aggravated assault.
The robber was wearing a bandana, but that didn't stop people from recognizing him.
"The robber was identified by witnesses outside the store and also inside the store, we were able to get him into custody yesterday morning. At that time he'd made admissions to other friends of his that he also did the firehouse subs robbery," said Inv. Tim Watkins of the Thomas Co. Sheriff's Office.
Police had few leads on the man who held employees at gunpoint at Firehouse subs in Thomasville two weeks ago. In addition to these two robberies, Shaw has admitted to two other recent Boston burglaries.

Coping Tips for Caregivers of Those With Parkinson's Disease
Communicating With Your Loved One
Parkinson's disease can make verbal communication very difficult for your loved one. That can get in the way of your ability to care for his or her needs. Here are some ways that can help you better understand your loved one.
- Talk to loved one face-to-face. Look at him or her as he or she is speaking.
- Ask questions that your loved one can answer "yes" or "no."
- Repeat the part of the sentence that you understood. (For example, "You want me to go upstairs and get the what?")
- Ask your loved one to repeat what he or she has said, or ask him or her to speak slower or spell out the words that you did not understand.

Greetings, Ladies and Gentlemen!
What do you get when you take two giant Phillips backlit (green, of course) plasma TVs, two Nintendo Wii's, over 500 technology enthusiasts and cram them into a bar for a night? Well, the answer is simpler than you think: you get TechCocktail 4!
Many great things have come about from this last meeting of the Tech community. There was extensive networking, project demonstrations, product placements, informative interactions and a slew of fresh new faces at the latest event. Of course, it wouldn't be a TechCocktail event without the cocktails, right? SingleHop was a major contributor in the sponsorship of this quarterly get-together and we felt it was yet another great success in this series of social gatherings.
SingleHop had an extended area with two massive plasma flat-screens and Wii Sports Baseball, with entrants playing for 10 sets of Cubs tickets. It was great fun and everyone played with the wildly erratic movements that are expected with the Wii controls:

CLEVELAND, TN. (Times Free Press) -- Federal prosecutors allege that a widespread Medicare fraud scheme at Life Care Centers of America began at the highest levels of the corporate hierarchy and that employees who complained about possibly illegal practices were "ignored," "chastised," "punished" or fired.
Recently unsealed court records in an ongoing whistle-blower lawsuit against the Cleveland, Tenn.-based company reveal claims that the company founder and sole shareholder, Forrest Preston, forbade his own compliance department from conducting unannounced inspections at facilities.
Prosecutors claim that former Chief Operating Officer Cathy Murray circumvented the department's responses to employee complaints while she "aggressively drove the company's push for increased Medicare revenue."

Typing Pool
Typing used to be a very female occupation. Large numbers of them often did the typing for a number of organizations. They sat in what were known as typing pools, and created documents of all types. The way to get a promotion was to distinguish oneself in the typing pool, and perhaps be offered the chance to be a secretary.
Newspaper Typesetter
Individual pieces of type used to have to be placed in printing presses in order to create newspaper pages and other documents on a mass scale. Now, of course, computers do the work of layout for newspapers, automating the process so that it is done more quickly, and arguably more accurately.
Related Articles
Elevator Operator
It used to be that elevators needed someone to manually operate them, often using levers to help keep things moving as efficiently as possible, and to properly land the elevator cab on the correct floor. Even after buttons were created to help, an operator was still required, since the buttons didn't allow for extra stops. Now, of course, push button operation makes this job unnecessary.
Mimeograph Operator
It used to be that the process of creating mimeographs was sometimes given to an operator. This allowed copies to made while the person requesting them accomplished other tasks. Now, though, mimeographs have been replaced by all sorts of digital machines, and the simple push of a button from a computer can get someone all the copies he or she needs.
Street Sweeper
Before those huge trucks we think of as street cleaners were invented, street sweepers were needed to help clear debris off streets. Street sweepers used brooms to manually sweep streets in parts of town that were considered more desirable. No, of course, large brushes attached to tracks do that job.

Ted Siefer's City Hall: With Gatsas back, aldermen increase fees, tighten exemptions
"The fact that you're here four weeks later ... I know we make your blood pump pretty well," Levasseur said - a sentiment that probably applies best to himself.
Gatsas is not one for sentimentality, but he took the moment to express his gratitude.
"First, let me say thank you to the board for your work over the last four weeks, and to ChairmanO'Neil for stepping up, and the department heads for stepping up," he said before turning to the care he received at Catholic Medical Center. "I can't say enough good things about that hospital. I know people tell you 'Go down to Boston.' I can tell you the care I received was second to none."
Tuesday's meeting was a long one, partly because the aldermen took the unusual step of immediately going into a lengthy nonpublic session. The purpose was to get the latest on discussions with Public Service of New Hampshire over the rate it wants to charge municipalities that use efficient LED streetlights.
You may recall that late last year the aldermen hurriedly authorized spending up to $25,000 to hire a lawyer after city officials learned that state regulators were prepared to rule on PSNH's proposed rate, which they felt would shortchange the city.
Gatsas said he couldn't go into detail on what was discussed during the closed-door session, but he said he hoped that the parties could reach an agreement soon.
- - - - - - - - -
It doesn't seem likely that pay-as-you-throw will be coming to Manchester anytime soon, and it remains to be seen whether the aldermen will manage to finally approve new parking regulations that could net up to $500,000 in new revenue. But the board has steadily given its stamp of approval to new and higher fees that will affect particular constituencies, if not the general population.
"There are 600 people in Manchester getting the disability exemption. In the rest of the state, there's about 500. Something must be going on in Manchester. Obviously, it's not the water, but they're all moving to Manchester," he said.
"On behalf of those who are disabled, we have the three best medical facilities in the state. Disabled people tend to congregate where they get health care," Hirschmann said. "I just want to go on record saying the disabled people I know, they're disabled, and they deserve this."
The aldermen's Human Resources Committee has given the green light to a proposal from Mayor Gatsas to eliminate an ordinance that requires supervisors to make more than their underlings.
"A person taking a supervising position should be happy with a 10 percent increase. (Their) pay shouldn't have anything to do with who the people being supervised are," Gatsas told the committee on Monday.
Human Resources Director Jane Gile said it's not frequent, but it does happen.
"I can't give a number off the top of my head. I'd say a handful of times," she said. Of course, Gatsas knows what it's like to be a supervisor and get paid less than his charges. At $68,000 a year, Gatsas makes less than nearly all of his department heads as well as a good number of rank-and-file workers.
It appears a plan to hand over the operation of the city's West Side Ice Arena to local business partners won't slide into place as quickly as it appeared a couple of weeks ago. The plan was supposed to have been back before the aldermen on Tuesday, after a review by city officials.

Like every other Nuggets fan I was surprised and elated that the team came together to win in the mist of injuries to two of their biggest star players (Melo & Billups). The game against the Jazz showcased the defensive intensity and passing game that allowed a trip to the playofffs and eventually the Western Conference Finals last season. Some have wondered where that kind of teamwork and intensity have been at times thus far this season.
While I'm sure having four days rest leading up to the game didn't hurt, I hope this game can be one thats looked upon in the future for inspiration.
