Islanders re-sign Boulton to one-year deal
Mar 23, 2014, 4:43 PM EST
If nothing else, the New York Islanders will have some toughness on the roster next season.
The team announced they've re-signed rugged forward Eric Boulton to a one-year deal to have him prowl the ice next season. He made $550,000 this season.
This season, Boulton has played in 23 games and has four points to go with 88 penalty minutes. According to users at hockeyfights.com, Boulton has four wins in his eight fights this season and three draws with his only loss coming against Krys Barch on March 2.
Boulton has played in 638 career games in the NHL and has 1,389 penalty minutes. His four points this season are the most he's had in a season since 2010-11 when he played for the Atlanta Thrashers. That season, Boulton had a hat trick against the New Jersey Devils to account for half of his goals for the year.
The Islanders are his fourth team after spending time with New Jersey, Atlanta, and Buffalo.

Jeez. Didn't realize he's already 37, guy's been around a long time for an enforcer. Good for him for making it.
- canuckinamerica - Mar 23, 2014 at 5:30 PM
Garth Snow gave him only a one year contract. At $7,347,434.00. Then claimed it was a steal.
- bossytrottiergillies - Mar 23, 2014 at 5:38 PM
The only way this a good signing is if Boulton knocks out Snow with a one-two right after signing.
- barkar942 - Mar 23, 2014 at 9:14 PM
Well, it is good to see with this signing that they will be moving right to the top of the Metropolitan Division next year.

I've given thought to the many women I have known. Juanita has been truly one of the loveliest, always energetically focused on supporting students and teachers. I count it a privilege to be someone she has influenced with her warmth, grace, and pursuit of the best.

Wayne Falconer
Have you ever had night when
you left your dull job late.
Attended rock an roll concert date
saw Lou Reed do his thing.
My how he could rock and sing.
Have you ever had night when
before show met girl with cool smile.
Who liked your hip rocking style.
Together you rapped, laughed and joked.
Held hands, drank, kissed and smoked.
Have you ever had night when
you made love with girl after show.
In slow motion nice and slow.
Both feeling hot blooded and high
under Wellington night city sky.
Have you ever had night when
music smoke and girl blew your mind.
Such nights hard to remember or defined.
Was it back in 73 or 74.
Man did you or I score, obey the law.
Have you ever had night when
you saw night through heady haze.
Oh those were the terrace city daze.
When that rocker boy showed his style
memory lived beyond my missing file.
Have you ever had night when
and man who am I writing about.
have you and I any real doubt
well shall I give you single clue.
Am I writing bout rocker me or you.

Telecom giant pulls ads from Uganda anti-gay paperMarch 10, 2014 @ 7:10 am (Updated: 7:21 am - 3/10/14 )
KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) — An activist group says the global telecom company Orange has withdrawn advertising from a Ugandan tabloid newspaper that printed the names of 200 suspected homosexuals after a severe anti-gay law was enacted last month.
All Out said in a statement Monday that Orange, a subsidiary of France Telecom, made the decision after more than 77,000 of its members petitioned the company to "remove the advertisements" with the newspaper Red Pepper.
The statement said that Red Pepper's contract with Orange expired on March 6 and will not be extended.
It was not clear how much Red Pepper earned from the Orange ads.
Arinaitwe Rugyendo, a Red Pepper senior executive who acts as its spokesman, said he had no immediate comment.

Hello all,
I've had enough of the foot aches and cramps I've been having while sking for a long time now; and feel that (not that I am sure) buying custom fitted ski boots will solve these problems.
Can you please advise if there are any expert custom boot fitters in Megeve ?
All the best,

As Pvoyageuse said, both Davids at Technic Shoes were great masters of boot fitting. For the first time since 10 years or so I have skied without worrying about my feet. I think custom boot fitting is the best investment a skier can make.

Quicksand is a staple hazard of adventure movies, TV shows and video games. Whenever a minor character needs to be killed off quickly, the hero needs someone to rescue, or danger needs to be introduced without calling the villain in, quicksand is there to fulfill the task and swallow an explorer whole. Conveniently, there's always a pool of pasty goo sitting around somewhere, usually perfectly circular and somewhat hidden from the characters' view. This shouldn't come as a shock, but real quicksand... READ ON

Iraq back on the brink: Will early elections break deadlock?
Massive rallies, powerful cleric predicting 'Iraq Spring', Arabs and Kurds at loggerheads: Iraq looks locked in wave of disputes.
Middle East Online
By Prashant Rao – BAGHDAD
Where is Maliki heading with Iraq?
Massive rallies, a powerful cleric predicting an "Iraq spring" and Arabs and Kurds at loggerheads: Iraq is mired in a cycle of interlocking crises with elections increasingly seen as the only solution.
Almost since the moment the last US troops withdrew in December 2011, the country has been locked in a wave of disputes between political, ethnic and religious factions, with no significant laws passed since polls in March 2010.
And now, talk has revived of early elections in a bid to break a deadlock that only appears to be getting worse.
"Early elections might be the best solution," said Ihsan al-Shammari, a professor of politics at Baghdad University. "If these matters deepen, they will worsen divisions, and that's a very dangerous matter."
Provincial elections are set for April, with national polls not due until next year, but politicians in Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's State of Law bloc have revived talk of dissolving parliament, initially mooted by the premier last June.
For the moment, the cabinet and parliament continue to meet, and while Maliki supporters may back new elections, an absolute majority of lawmakers is required to dissolve the 325-member Council of Representatives.
Analysts say Maliki has managed to survive thanks to tactical guile and poor organisation by his opponents, although he reportedly had to rely on Iran's backing to see off an effort to withdraw confidence from his government last year.
The latest crises reflect the lack of long-term solutions to years-old disputes, between Arabs and Kurds, between the central government in Baghdad and local authorities, and between Sunni and Shiite Muslims.
Analysts and officials often point to the unresolved row between the autonomous Kurdish region and Baghdad as the greatest long-term threat to the future stability of the country.
Recent months have seen tensions over the issue rise to arguably unprecedented levels, with both sides massing troops along a tract of disputed territory, and as disagreements over the dispersal of oil revenues persist.
While the troops have since withdrawn, a lasting deal is still a long way off.
Along with the Kurdish region, many majority-Sunni provinces have clashed with Baghdad and supported rallies criticising the Shiite-led government for misusing anti-terror laws to target their minority.
The local authorities in Nineveh and Salaheddin provinces have even declared general strikes in protests sparked by the December 20 arrest of at least nine bodyguards of Finance Minister Rafa al-Essawi, a Sunni, on terror charges.
The arrests have also further worsened ties between Iraqiya, the secular Sunni-backed party of which Essawi is a senior member, and Maliki's mostly Shiite State of Law faction.
While the disputes have largely been seen in sectarian or ethnic terms, Maliki has also faced criticism from within his own Shiite community, with powerful cleric Moqtada al-Sadr predicting an "Iraq spring" and backing the protests.
All of this comes despite Iraqiya and Sadr's movement both remaining in Maliki's fragile unity government while also publicly calling for his ouster.
An eerily similar set of disputes broke out early last year, in the immediate aftermath of the American troop withdrawal.
"The political blocs tried, after the departure of the American forces, to exploit matters and went further than the constitution allows," said Abbas al-Bayati, an MP and State of Law member.
"Each side tries to interpret the constitution to serve its own agenda."
This time, however, a key mediator is missing. President Jalal Talabani is being treated in Germany after having a stroke, and there is little hope that Iraq's political leaders will make progress on their differences any time soon.
"There is no willingness on any side to sit down and deal with problems," said Mahmud Othman, an independent Kurdish lawmaker. "Each side just makes accusations towards the other side."
"I expect the worst is still to come."

New & Updated Linux Benchmarks

2 Comments
Pushed to
over the night were several new and updated test profiles for Linux performance benchmarking.
There's a mass update going on right now of test profiles to pull in the latest upstream packages for many different components. This is for the
AMD Trinity testing
on Linux plus some other upcoming hardware launches, etc. It's also simply that some of the upstream test cases are out of date compared to the latest upstream versions.
Among the updated tests include:
incorporates the recent
FFmpeg 1.0 release
plus uses a new H.264 HD video file as input.
pulls in the latest x264 snapshot release of the video encoder as of yesterday.
pulls in the upstream libvpx 1.1.0 release.
integrates BZIP2 1.0.6 and PBZIP2 1.1.6.
leverages GraphicsMagick 1.3.16 from upstream.
updates JTR to 1.7.9-jumbo-7.
updates to OpenSSL 1.0.1c.
updates to Apache/HTTPD 2.4.3.
When it comes to new test profiles, there's been two committed in the past day:
as a test profile for measuring the audio encoding and decoding of
the Opus Audio Codec
that was recently improved as
an IETF standard
is a new Computational Fluid Dynamics test for stressing the processor.
As long as you're using Phoronix Test Suite 3.0+ (though using the latest release is always recommended, which right now is Phoronix Test Suite 4.0-Suldal), these new/updated test profiles are immediately available. Simply run the
Phoronix Test Suite
and they are there via the OpenBenchmarking.org repository. If you have run the Phoronix Test Suite in the past 48 hours, you may need to run
phoronix-test-suite openbenchmarking-refresh
to pull in the latest OpenBenchmarking.org meta-data since the time to live for caches until automated updates is three days. Following that just run
phoronix-test-suite benchmark [the test you wish to run]
As always, if you wish to run an older version of a test profile, it's as easy as e.g.
phoronix-test-suite benchmark openssl-1.6.0
by explicitly specifying a test profile version number (listed on the OpenBenchmarking.org test profile pages), which is also how it's handled when running result file comparisons for ensuring the versions match. When no version is appended to the test profile, the latest version is used automatically.
Coming up in the next few days will also be the first milestone release of Phoronix Test Suite 4.2, which is being developed under the codename
Any (non-enterprise) comments, questions, feature requests, and other matters can be directed to
the forums

Alexis Jordan is an 18-year-old singer on the rise. She got her start on America's Got Talent, and then started posting videos of herself singing on YouTube. But the big whammie came when Jay-Z signed her to Roc Nation earlier this year (which sparked some people to call her next Rihanna, watch out!). Her first single, Happiness, dropped recently and it's a peppy song that also totally embodies her positive spirit and style.
So, we sat down with the diva-in-training recently to find out about her casual, fun look. "My style relates to my music definitely with the positive aspect," she told us. "I want to show girls that you don't have to show your body to be noticed. You want to keep that mystery. So I want to keep that mystery as my career goes on."
Also — that beautiful red hair you see is REAL and NATURAL and she spends three hours a day on it! "I've had people come up to me and feel inside my hair and be like 'Is that your real hair? Is that your real color? What number is it?'" Freaky! "Yes, people are obsessed with my hair! I hope it doesn't become a trending topic one day."

Julianne Hough knows how to keep Ryan Seacrest on his toes.
In the July issue of Glamour, the "Rock of Ages "star admits to being highly competitive with the "American Idol" host, whom she began dating in 2010. "It gets silly. Ryan and I are very alike," she explains. "When we work out with a trainer, we'll die before we stop, like, to the point where we can't breathe."
PHOTOS: Julianne Hough and Ryan Seacrest's red hot romance
Though she's 24 and he's 37, their age difference doesn't bother Hough. As for Seacrest? "He's always joking about it," Hough tells the magazine.
The two first met while Hough was engaged to childhood pal Zach Wilson, also a dancer. "He was a great guy -- I'd known him since I was 9. But I needed to figure myself out more, and so I moved to L.A. and we ended it," Hough says of Wilson. "And actually, he ended up marrying my childhood best friend, and now they have a kid together. It was a little weird when it happened, but they're a great couple!"
PHOTOS: Julianne Hough's glam red carpet evolution
The dancer-turned-actress rebounded with country music star Chuck Wicks, 32, who went on to become her partner on "Dancing With the Stars." "While we were dating, we went on Ryan's radio show together. The interview's on YouTube, and I blush when I hear it because Ryan is hitting on me the entire time! At the end, Ryan said something like, 'You guys really have something special!' And I thought to myself, 'He's so full of s--- right now!' When Chuck and I broke up, I wanted to be single. That lasted five months. Then Ryan and I went on a date."

According to Hough, she was attracted to the "similarities" she shared with Seacrest: "We both like that perfection in ourselves, and we want to make our relationship like that."
VIDEO: Ryan Seacrest proposes to Julianne Hough -- sort of
Like Seacrest, who also hosts "E! News" and continues to emcee his daily radio show, Hough is workhorse. "I'm a very anxious person. If I'm not working, I go crazy," she tells Glamour. "I've been lucky in my career. But if I lost everything tomorrow -- and had no money -- I would somehow make it work. I have that survivor mentality because of a lot of stuff that went on in a previous life. I feel like I've had four lives."

text: A Glenn County woman is arrested for erratic driving. 25-year-old Britney Doyle from Fruto a community west of Willows reported to the Glenn County Sheriff's office Saturday afternoon that 59-year-old Marguerite Lee had allegedly violated a restraining order. Doyle reported that Lee had driven her Ford F-350 truck and spun the tires near their house. Deputies attempted to make contact with Lee who started to drive around in circles on her own property. According to deputies she drove that way for for about two hours and 45 minutes. Then Lee left her property and took off on Highway 162 but not before almost hitting a deputy who had to jump out of her way. The CHP deployed a spike strip which caused the tires to flatten and then eventually came off, but Lee continued to drive on metal rims. Lee finally stopped her vehicle and was arrested.

Spanish bishop affirms Church's commitment to women, unborn
As controversy surrounds reform of Spain's abortion law, the newly-elected president of the local bishops' conference says Catholics must both oppose the procedure and support pregnant women.
"We need to understand that it is very difficult for many pregnant women – for reasons we can all come to understand – to carry their babies to term," said Archbishop Ricardo Blazquez Perez of Valladolid.
"We need to be close to them and help them, not simply say 'no to abortion,' which we should always say, but also say to them, 'Let's see, what can we do, how can we help,'" he told CNA during his ad limina visit to Rome with the Spanish bishops.
"I am happy that there are institutions of the Church that serve these women. Several institutions in my diocese come to mind that are doing immense good," he said, reaching out to women who are suffering so that "they will not have even more suffering later if they suppress the life of their child."
The archbishop's remarks come as a new bill in Spain aims to re-establish limits on abortion and assert the state's right to protect unborn children. It seeks to address what many have seen as an overreach by a 2010 law passed by the Socialists.
The 2010 law allowed for abortion up to 22 weeks of pregnancy if there was a "serious risk to the life or health of the mother or the fetus." However, critics have argued that the law was unregulated, in practice creating a situation where abortion-on-demand was allowed for any reason during this time.
The proposed bill would tighten these regulations. It would continue to allow for abortion at different stages throughout pregnancy, but only for certain reasons, including rape, terminal deformity and the physical or mental well-being of the mother, confirmed by medical professionals. The bill also reinforces a state interest in protecting unborn life, as well as doctors' conscience rights to refuse to participate in an abortion.
Archbishop Blazquez said society needs to be reminded that "neither the mother, nor the father, and neither doctors nor those in authority have the authority to suppress the life of a human being."
"As Christians we want to defend life and we defend it from the mother's womb…As human beings we are always on a journey, and nobody has the authority to suppress the life of a human being, a human being that is moreover defenseless and is absolutely dependent on others in everything in order to survive."
"We must care for them!" he said.
In addition, "science clearly and unanimously tells us that from the moment of conception, a unique being exists, who is a human being."
Archbishop Blazquez was elected as president of the Spanish bishops on March 12 for the three year term of 2014-2017. He succeeds Cardinal Antonio Maria Rouco Varela of Madrid, who led the bishops for twelve years. The archbishop had been vice president of the conference for the previous three terms. He was first elected on March 4, 2008, and was reelected on March 1, 2011.

Jordan, Turturro join Blackout For Human Rights' 'Do the Right Thing' reading
Turn on the news this past week and you'll see people from around the country amassing in protest of the recent decision that police officer Darren Wilson would not be indicted for the murder of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO. The inaction provoked conversation of race and authority in present day America, with politicians, human rights groups, and driven individuals rallying for reconsideration on the case and justice for all who've suffered in similar situations. This includes many in the entertainment industry, who will join forces with the Blackout for Human Rights network this Friday, Nov. 28, to keep the conversation going.
