Arizona Coyotes
Coyotes captain Shane Doan could return Saturday
Rejoice, Coyotes Nation: The Captain could return to the ice on Saturday.
In a Friday tweet, the Phoenix Coyotes announced that captain Shane Doan has been cleared by doctors and could play against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday.
Doan was diagnosed with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever in December after feeling ill during the team's Canadian road trip. He hasn't played since the Dec. 4 loss against the Calgary Flames.
At the time, Doan was the team's leading scorer with 12 goals. He also has 11 helpers this season and was averaging 19:05 of ice time per game, often skating on one of the team's top lines.
The Coyotes went 4-3-5 in Doan's absence after starting the season 16-8-4.

We got this chest freezer to store a side of beef (1/2 steer) and it does so with a lot of room to spare. That's about 250 pounds of meat. The freezer was a bit large for our house, so we had to put it in the garage. The two of us were able to carefully lift the empty chest (not with our backs) and move it to the garage. So far the compressor doesn't stay on all day long in the warmer, somewhat stuffy garage. Honestly though, I don't recommend putting it in the garage unless it is your last resort (especially if the garage could have temperatures of less than 0 F or above 110 F). I have a fan turning on during the heat of the day to help advect heat away from the exterior walls, especially from the compressor side (on the left as you look in the chest); the refrigerant can get quite hot to the touch otherwise. I like the green light on the freezer; it is an indicator that it is on even when the very quiet compressor is off. I wouldn't have minded the noise of this machine; it is quieter than our side-by-side upright freezer and refrigerator. The appliance cord is a bit short, but the manual says as a last resort you can use an appliance approved extension cord. At setting 4 (the manual's default) it keeps the freezer around -6 F, perfect for storing meat long-term. Excellent freezer for the cost! I only wish it had a Freezer alarm to help product our food investments.

We purchased the freezer two years ago. It sits in our (climate controlled) laundry room, just off the kitchen. We are very happy with the layout, movable shelves, ease of cleaning, etc., and the freezing performance is excellent. HOWEVER, almost immediately following installation, the compressor (or fan?) began to make a whistling noise when running. It was annoying, but we hoped it would go away as the unit broke in. Quite to the contrary, the whistle has continued to increase in volume over time, to the point of being extremely annoying and interfering with conversation or TV watching, even in our dining area which is essentially two rooms away. We have to close the door to the laundry room to shut out the noise. So I would say, if you're going to put the freezer in the garage or storeroom, you'll probably be OK and should be pleased with the performance, but I would not recommend placing the unit in or near your living area.

A. Many animals are equipped with an impressive supply of blood vessels under a well-designed layer of soft yet tough padding, which is why they generally don't need to boot up to take a walk when there's snow on the ground. But don't expect cats or dogs to do as well in the cold as their wild relatives such as the lynx or wolf, both of whom have feet that can really stand up to snow and ice. Our domesticated animals, on the other hand, can and do suffer from prolonged exposure to bitter cold.
Two of my books, Why Do Dogs Drink From the Toilet? and Why Do Cats Always Land on their Feet? answer some of the most interesting and offbeat questions about cats and dogs I've collected over the years. For the dog book, I asked my friend Dr. Stu Nelson, chief veterinarian for the Iditarod, about how pets and their paws stand up to extreme weather. If anyone knows about pets in cold weather, it's Dr. Nelson.
He shared that frostbite strikes the areas of the body that have the slowest circulation and are therefore easily chilled. Pets have greater circulation in their feet than humans do, enabling them to withstand low temperatures without wearing shoes.
So what about those sled dogshe knows so well?
While pet dogs and cats have relatively short-term exposure to walking on ice and snow, that's certainly not true of sled dogs such as the ones who run the Iditarod. Dr. Nelson says that the thickness of the paw pads help animals go "barefoot" on various types of terrain, including snow and ice. Animals also have two more legs to distribute the weight, which is an advantage on rough, cold ground.
Despite all those evolutionary advantages, these canine athletes can use some help: Sled dogs often wear booties, although on ice they get better traction without them, using their nails like cleats.
While city dogs sometimes wear booties, it's not something a cat will tolerate. In winter the problem for both dogs and cats isn't walking on snow and ice so much as exposure to chemicals used for de-icing. It's always a good idea to rinse pet paws when they come in; this cleans off anything potentially toxic and helps keep the house cleaner too.

Back in June, we heard Uno Hype lend his guest stylings to Average Guy, a track off Odd Couple's then-forthcoming Separated at Birth EP. Evidently, the DMV rhymesayer and Chi-town beat duo enjoyed working together, as they've decided to link up for a full project. The lead single off the set, 100 Feet Up, is an ethereal smoker's anthem built around a sample from indie buzz band Purity Ring's Lofticries. In addition to Hype's smoky snapshots of life in the fast lane, the record boasts guest bars by Warner Bros signee XV and Erick Arc Elliott, a member of rising rap crew Flatbush Zombies. Like what you're hearing? The Lxve You All EP has yet to receive a drop date, but fans can keep it locked for release details, as well as all the latest jams.

See if you can follow this chain of events. Cypress Hill records dubstep EP with Rusko, sans Muggs. Muggs records dubstep tracks solo, sans Cypress. Does this mean the next Cypress Hill LP will be a dubstep record? Time will tell. In other news, Deadmau5′s Cypress Hill collabo, "Failbait", was pretty dope, by hip-hop standards.
We're getting off track. Muggs delivers new EP rooted in dubstep and trap styles of production today on Mishka, featuring guest shots from Chuck Inglish of The Cool Kids and A$ap Rocky. Also, that cover art rules.
Muggs has never cared about criticism, I think he enjoys it. Muggs was mixing rap with rock at a time it wasn't popular and being told what a sellout he was for it in 1994, I highly doubt people telling him the same thing in 2012 for messing with Dubstep is gonna make him give a fuck, lol, he does what he wants, always did always will. I don't always like the results but I respect his decisions. And as far as the "Sellout" comments go, lets not pretend Dubstep artist are blowing up on the charts, even the well known cats like Skrillex & what not still don't really sell shit. Its certainly a contemporary style but If I were gonna sell out I'd go for something that actually, you know, sells….. You people need to learn the difference.

On Music: The Wishing Tree echoes European folk, Americana
By Jim Hagerty
Staff Writer
Brainchild of prog rock guitarist Steve Rothery (Marillion) and vocalist Hanaah Stobart,The Wishing Tree has been delivering a electric brand of folk-pop since the mid-1990s. After finally releasing Carnival of Souls in 1999, the group was somewhat shelved, transforming into a Rothery/Stobart songwriting partnership.
More than 10 years later, The Wising Tree is back with Ostara, a journeyed project conceived in California and England. Lyrically charged with melodic rock and folk overtones, Ostara flirts with European electric folk and Americana, and classic vocality that slightly echoes Tori Amos and Alanis Morissette. Stobart, however, finds a comfortable middle ground to carve a unique individuality.
Intrumentally, Rothery's guitar, keyboards and bass chops shine, speaking loudly of a Carlos Santa, Sting—even a Ray Manzarek influence—creating an edgy greatness not captured since Mathbox Twenty's Yourself or Someone Like You delivered its deafening blow to the Seattle grunge movement. Backbeats are solid, while melodies are as strong as anything out there.
Released last March, the eight-track Ostara is still organic as well as timeless.

At press time, the band was finishing a Florida leg before heading west to Arizona, Nevada and California. The tour wraps after eight South American dates.
Mana Kintorso's 'Pot o' Gold' a new St. Patty's tradition

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Hardin County Water District No. 2 is not lacking for things to do.
A slew of infrastructure projects, a bond refinancing, a possible office expansion and a long-term water purchase agreement with Louisville Water Co. has left the district with plenty of projects to juggle.

A Radcliff woman was arrested Saturday evening after allegedly stabbing her husband twice, according to police.
LaTonya Morris, 35, faces a charge of second-degree assault — domestic violence, said Bryce Shumate, Radcliff Police Department spokesman.
Shumate said Morris was in custody and would be lodged in the Hardin County Detention Center.
Shumate said Morris stabbed the man in the hand and thigh just before 6 p.m. Saturday at their Clear Ridge Lane residence.
About 200 people surrounded teams from Radcliff and Fort Knox as they furiously cranked their tools to pierce the metal pipe before them in their race to add a service line to a water mane.
The mock demonstration of the distribution crews' skill was part of the Water Festival on Saturday, which celebrated Hardin County Water District No. 1's 60th anniversary and honored its customers at its Vine Grove location.
Children ran through sprinklers, shot two-liter bottles into the air and slipped through water-slicked obstacle courses.
Through Sept. 21, Elizabethtown Community and Technical College's Morrison Gallery is the site of "Abraham Lincoln: The Constitution and the Civil War," a national traveling exhibition that guides the audience through Lincoln's struggle to meet the political and constitutional challenges of the Civil War.

Parents hope fire codes change after students' deaths
After a fire in Clifton killed two students, one victim's family is asking for changes.
Ellen Garner and Chad Kohls were killed after a fire on New Year's Day at a home in the 2800 block of Digby Avenue.
Garner's father is hoping his daughter's legacy can help keep others safe. He is hoping for stricter fire codes and a permanent memorial for his daughter and her friend.
Rod Garner said his daughter and her friend were trapped in an attic bedroom of a converted home. Their only escape from three-stories up was blocked by an air-conditioning unit.
The resulting tragedy is prompting change that many agree is long overdue. Her father said Ellen was a bright spirit with an even brighter future.
"We're heartbroken that she's not with us anymore," Rod Garner said.
Garner hopes that speaking out will keep another father from feeling this type of pain.
"Once the fire started, the outcome was largely predetermined because there was no way out," he said.
Garner was visiting her friend, Chad Kohls, 21, on New Year's Eve when a space heater caught a mattress on fire.
"All the toxic fumes from the burning mattress went right up that stairwell and into their room and there was no other way out," said Garner.
Fire safety problems, he said, run rampant in off-campus rentals.
"You've got old houses around the university that get converted into residential housing and they pack a lot of people in there and sometimes safety standards are overlooked," said Garner.
With the help of Cincinnati's City Council, he is teaming up with Kohl's parents to strengthen city fire codes and enforcement.
The goal is a compiled list of rentals around the campus that have been inspected and deemed safe. This would be a list parents and students could use during a house hunt, a list that could be a life saver.
"We hope something good comes out of this and we're going to do our best to make something good come out of this," said Garner.
A City Council member said any resulting legislation could be named in memory of Ellen and Chad.

Jane After Dark: 'Supernatural' Season Five - Is the Apocalypse Happening or What?!
by Jane Boursaw, posted May 2nd 2010 11:00AM
I've been watching 'Supernatural' for Jane After Dark, my weekly column chronicling all the TV shows I watch on DVD into the wee hours. I'm now up to season five, episode 11, 'Sam, Interrupted,' and frankly, this season's been a little slow going.
After the dark powers that gripped the Winchester boys in season four, it almost seems like the writers have forgotten all about the fact that Sam unleashed Lucifer onto the world in the season four finale. You would think that once the Devil had escaped from the depths of Hell, he'd be running roughshod over the planet.
