In the two-hour season finale of Grey's Anatomy, a gunman terrorizes Seattle Grace, killing surgeons and anyone else standing in his way of finding his one target: Derek Shepherd. Meanwhile, Meredith has some big news for Derek that may alter their future.
"For most people, the hospital is a scary place," Meredith kicks off the episode by saying in voice-over." A hostile place. A place where bad things happen," she continues as we see montages of Alex and Lexie catching some sleep in the on-call room, a woman mourning over the death of a loved one, and Richard explaining to a waitress that he's now been sober for six months.
"Most people would prefer church or school or home," she says as we see Callie and Cristina both crying into their cereal over their failed relationships.
"But I grew up here," she adds as she takes a pregnancy test. "While my mom was on rounds, I learned to read in the O.R. gallery, I played in the morgue, I colored with crayons on old E.R. charts. The hospital was my church, my school, my home. The hospital was my safe place, my sanctuary."
And as she learns that she is pregnant, she says, "I love it here. Correction, I loved it here." And we get our first glimpse of the shooter: Gary Clark, the man whose wife died in the hospital after Derek made the decision to pull the plug.
Meredith reveals the news of her pregnancy to Cristina. Not wanting to ruin the moment, Cristina says she's fine about the Teddy-Owen situation and urges Mer to go reveal the big news to Derek. However, Der's a bit flummoxed at the time with paperwork, so she wants to wait until that night. "There's going to be a lot of dirty sex for you tonight," she says.
In the shooter's first failed attempt to find Derek, Alex shoots him down, telling him to find a nurse. We then zoom in on Arizona's storyline, as one of her patients has appendicitis. She has plans to go into surgery later that day. Arizona then has her first run-in with Callie, who scorns her with the silent treatment. Speaking of problems, Owen is now practically shunned by both Cristina and Teddy. More on that later.
Elsewhere, we meet Bailey's new patient, Mary (played by Mandy Moore), who will be unable to go into surgery yet. So unfortunately, she has to have a colostomy bag for another day. Since she's not going to have surgery, her husband (played by Ryan Devlin) runs out to get her some real food.
Nurse Tyler tries to keep a woman out of her husband's E.R. room. After getting into a car accident, the patient got out to give his information, but the guy shot him and drove off. (Who else is betting that Gary Clark was the guy?) Owen allows the woman to say goodbye to her husband, much to Teddy's chagrin, who insists there isn't enough time. When Cristina gets upset she won't be joining in the surgery, Owen interjects, with Cristina snapping back.
Another failed attempt for Gary Clark to find the chief leads him into a storage room in the hospital. He asks Reed where Derek is, but she insists that she's busy, even going so far as to say she's a doctor, not a tour guide. Lesson of the day: Don't be rude. Just as she snippily rattles on, Gary shoots her between the eyes.
Alex hears the gun shot and comes to see what's going on. He takes a bullet in the side of the chest before Gary moves on. Alex crawls down the hall to the elevator, but he's in no capacity to push a button and be discovered by anyone.
After Cristina gives Teddy an update during surgery, Owen offers for her to scrub in, but she declines. He leaves the surgery to confront her anger, and it escalates into a full-on breakup. "Do you love her or do you love me?" Oops, don't take that long to answer Owen. "I'm done, we're done," Cris says before walking away.
Next lesson of the day: Watch where you're walking. While April is writing in her notebook, she trips over Reed's body, breaking her nose when she lands. But she notices there's way too much blood to be from her nose, and then turns to see Reed's dead body. She rushes to Derek's office, spluttering on that she never knew there could be so much blood in a human body. She finally reveals the Reed was shot in the head, leading Derek to call the police and institute a lockdown on the hospital.
Gary's next attempt to find Derek comes when he's in the elevator with Cristina. Unknowingly, Cristina describes exactly where Derek's office is...Oh Cristina, if you only knew. Thankfully, Gary is pleased by this information and doesn't put a bullet in Cris.
At the coffee shop, Richard notices hordes of police cruisers heading in the hospital's direction. Just as he runs out, we see Callie making her way to the pediatric wing. Perfect timing, they're now on lockdown, which means Callie and Arizona will be stuck on the same floor for quite a while.
Derek makes his way to the O.R. and tasks Avery with breaking the news to Teddy and Owen about the lockdown, but Avery must wait until the patient is stable. Avery has a heartbreaking moment as his hand proceeds to shake in surgery, but he can't reveal to Teddy and Owen why. Once it is revealed later, Owen and Teddy volunteer to take the patient through the dangerous halls, lest the patient die in the O.R.
As Mark tells Lexie he misses her, the gunman finally shoots in a public place, killing a nurse and sending everyone into a frenzy. Mark pulls Lexie over to the elevators to try to get her out of harm's way, but when they push the button, the door opens to a passed out Alex.
As Richard tries to get past the police to get into the hospital, we zoom over to Mark and Lexie bringing Alex's body into a conference room. Alex can't be moved because he's losing too much blood; there was no exit wound for his injury. "I'm going to kick that guy's a-- when I see him," Alex says through gritted teeth.
Cristina and Meredith wander through the hospital (come on!) on their way to find Derek to finally tell him the good news. Mer says that Cris will be the godmother to their child, meaning if Mer and Der die, Cris has to take care of the baby. "I have to admit, I kind of hope you and Derek die just a little bit," says Cris. Seriously? Derek finds them, pushing them into a storage closet before revealing that there's a shooter loose in the hospital.
Mary can tell something is wrong with Dr. Bailey, though just as she's questioning her, Dr. Percy comes rushing in. He reveals that there's a shooter in the hospital and that he's on their floor. Bailey peeks into the hallway to see Gary kill a security guard. She instructs Percy to hide in the bathroom and Mary to play dead as she jumps under the bed to hide.
Gary comes in their room and loses it further at the sight of Mary's seemingly dead body. He hears Percy in the bathroom and asks him if he's a surgeon. Next lesson of the day: Don't say yes to that question! He shoots him in the stomach, and then pulls Bailey from beneath the bed. Thankfully Bailey learned today's lesson and says she's a nurse. Gary reloads his gun and apologizes for the mess before walking out.
As Lexie and Mark work on Alex, he screams out in pain. Mark tells her to shut him up, but her shushing doesn't work. She finally sticks gauze in his mouth to damper the screams from attracting the gunman's attention. Lexie later volunteers to get Alex blood for a transfusion, sending her into the dangerous hallways of Seattle Grace.
Back at the peds wing, Arizona calls Callie out for being rude to her. Callie retorts that she tried to be her friend, but she'd rather hate her guts instead. Arizona says she's not the bad guy and that Callie may just be in love with love, and never actually loved her. They're interrupted by Arizona's appendicitis patient, who will need surgery immediately.
Bailey enlists Mary's help with trying to treat Dr. Percy. Bailey suddenly notices water on the gauze she just put on the wound. "Dr. Bailey, you're crying," Mary says. (Chandra Wilson is amazing!) "We're all going to fine," Bailey says, but Percy pleads with her to be honest with him. She says he's not going to die, but even I'm starting to get worried here.
Still being stuck in the storage room is about to be a problem for Cristina and Meredith, who says that she's been suffering morning sickness around this same time every day. Cris sees the shooter going down the hallway and figures out that he's hunting for Derek. Cue Mer puking.
The moment we've been dreading: Gary has finally found Derek on the cat walk. Derek tries to explain to him that everyone makes mistakes, that Derek knows Gary is actually a good man. All the while, Meredith and Cristina look on from across the hospital, with the latter holding Mer back.
Finally, Gary lowers his gun and we breathe a sigh of relief. Unfortunately, April has the worst timing ever as she runs out of Derek's office, elated that he's OK. Gary takes this opportunity to shoot Derek in the chest.
The second hour opens on April rattling off her life story in hopes that Gary will not shoot her as well. Gary tells her to run, leaving Derek to bleed out on the cat walk. The gunman also has to make his exit as he sees the SWAT team enter the hospital.
Meanwhile, Cristina tries to keep Meredith in the storage room, but you can't keep a wife from her hubby. She forcefully knocks Cris out of the way before running into the dangerous halls.
Speaking of, Teddy notes that it's ridiculous that she and Owen have survived wars and now they have to worry about a gunman in their hospital. She also says that Owen loves both she and Cristina and he must choose, but he declines, saying he's choosing neither.
As Richard yells at the police for not having enough information, various 911 calls come in from Miranda, Owen, Mark, and Cristina, who exclaim that Derek has been shot. As Meredith is trying to keep Derek conscious, Cris says that Derek is going to need surgery. Enlisting April's help, they move Derek down to the O.R.
Lexie comes face-to-face with Gary while getting blood and supplies for Alex. She's one of the few doctors who actually knows who he is. He reveals that his original plan was to only kill Derek, Richard and Lexie. Before he can shoot her, a SWAT team member shoots him in the chest, beckoning Lexie to run. When she makes it back to the room, she blames herself for Alex being shot and says that she loves him, much to Mark's dismay.
As Callie and Arizona treat the appendicitis patient, Gary enters the pediatrics wing. To stop Gary from harming anyone, Callie offers him bandages and asks him to leave. (Could anyone tell what Arizona was whispering while using her body as a shield over her patient?) Callie calms the patient by saying Arizona is the best doctor to fix her up, and the ice thaws between the two.
Derek promises Mer he's not going to die, as Cris and April go on the hunt to find Teddy. After Cris calms April down, they find Jackson, who decides that Cristina will have to operate on Derek. Cris tells Mer she's not allowed in the surgery, enlisting April's help to keep Mer in check.
Delusional from his loss of blood, Alex thinks Lexie is actually Izzie and begs her not to leave him again. Thankfully, SWAT shows up and is able to clear them out of the hospital.
Owen and Teddy make it out of the hospital with their patient, just as Richard finds a way of getting back in. After being patted down, Teddy realizes defeat in her relationship with Owen, and urges him to go back into the hospital to get his girl.
Meredith tells April that she's not allowed to cry over Derek, that it took her forever to find love and concede to opening her heart to someone. "Reed was my best friend. She died today," April says as Mer takes her hand.
Back to Percy, who has no chance of living if he doesn't get to an O.R. Bailey and Mary drag him to the elevator, but SWAT has already shut it down. Bailey finally loses it, screaming to the heavens in frustration. She admits to Percy that he is going to die, but he won't be alone. He asks that they tell Reed he was really in love with her and dies in Bailey's arms soon thereafter.
Owen finally arrives to Cristina's O.R., but asks Meredith to stay put. Gary is already in there with a gun to Cristina's head, yelling for her to stop trying to save Derek. "This is the woman that I love," Owen says. "You shoot her, you touch her, and I will kill you."
"Shoot me," yells Meredith, explaining that Lexie is her sister, Richard is the closest thing he has to family and Derek is her husband; if he wants to hurt any of them, he should shoot her. "I'm your eye for an eye," she says. Before Gary can shoot, Cristina reveals that Meredith is pregnant. With his guard slightly down, Owen tries to jump in, but is shot in the chest.
Jackson and Cristina immediately stop working on Derek, with Jackson telling Gary that he'll die in moments. Meredith cries out, but the heart monitor goes dead, along with Derek. Once Gary leaves, Jackson reattaches the monitor leads. Yay, Derek is not dead! Thankfully, neither is Owen. Cristina yells to Meredith to take Owen across the hall and save him.
As Meredith tries to save Owen, she suddenly has a miscarriage, but can't let that stand in the way of her mission. It's so tragic, but at least now Meredith knows she wants to have a child, so I have a feeling we'll be seeing much more of that next season.
Richard roams the halls, finally coming face-to-face with Gary Clark. Apparently, in Seattle you can buy a gun really easily, Gary explains. He bought a ton of ammunition in preparation of coming there, but couldn't fit it all because he wanted to bring his flask, which leaves him with only one bullet left.
Gary's choice is to either kill himself or kill Richard, who declines to take a drink from Gary's flask before pouring it out. "What's it going to be Mr. Clark. Me or You?" Richard ponders, explaining that Gary's options are really only going to prison or living in the afterlife with his wife. "I've lived," Richard pushes, saying that death would just be "the end of a beautiful journey." We don't quite get to see the ending, but Gary is out of the picture.
At the end of the episode, we learn that Alex is fine, with Lexie clearly choosing him over Mark. The same can't initially be said for Derek, who codes on the table. Mary finally reunites with her husband, as Bailey tries to hunt down Dr. Reed and deliver Percy's final message. Arizona says to Callie that they'll have tons of kids; all she wants to do is be with her.
Cristina Yang for the win: She saves Derek's life, as Mer breathes a sigh of relief. The episode closes on Meredith throwing her pregnancy test in the trash before going to see her husband.
What did you think of the tragic finale? Was all that death really necessary? Do you think Meredith will be on the baby path next year? So much to discuss!

What's up – thanks for stopping by! I'm Danami-Maurice Champion, Songwriter, Hip-Hop Recording Artist, Graphic Designer, Instructor, and Inspirational Speaker residing in Saint Paul, Minnesota (Detroit born and raised though). Here on my website/blog, I share my personal experiences as a person and artist to inspire and empower others to become the best them.
Danami is an accomplished Songwriter and Hip-Hop Recording Artist focused on writing, recording, and performing music that is both artistic and narrates stories – connecting with people and perspectives through intimate human experiences of love and social justice. Writing music since 1997, many fans have compared Danami's style to iconic Hip-Hop artists Nas and Lupe Fiasco infused with a backdrop of love themes and storytelling elements from 50-80's Soul music.
These elements can be heard on Danami's forthcoming sophomore album Delayed Gratification, a successfully crowd sourced project utilizing Kickstarter.com (surpassing a goal of $3,000 by 10% resulting in $3,316 raised). Songs like 'Fork In The Road' and 'Moments Alone' – featured on Delayed Gratification – exemplifies Danami's strengths to craft personal relatable catchy music.
Sean "Twinkie Jiggles" McPherson, co-founder of Heiruspecs, says, "Danami's hustle and his business acumen outshines a lot of other up and coming stars in independent Hip-Hop. But it is his soulful approach and his unique style that truly sets him apart from the pack."
Danami's soulful approach to making music is contributed to growing up in Motown, home of The Temptations, Stevie Wonder, Smokie Robinson, and other Detroit musical patrons. Motown's social and political appeal to the world during the 1960s inspires Danami to create Marvin Gaye's 'What's Going On' or 'Poppa Was A Rolling Stone' by The Temptations in Hip-Hop form. This same social and political mass appeal of Motown was proven true for Danami in 2012 on the McNally Smith Road Trip; SXSW Tour in 2012 – touring high schools throughout the Midwest and South, including performing at SXSW Music Festival.
During that same year, Danami contributed his voice to raising awareness of the Voter ID adamant as a member of Face The Vote (FTV), an initiative by the Twin Cities Hip-Hop community to showcase the voters affected by the voter suppression bill using music and videos. Non-profit organizations, schools, and correctional facilities routinely recruit Danami. He uses his music as a platform to engage in social change and foster belief and encouragement in the lives of youth through speeches, workshops, panels, and his daily life.

A few days ago, via e-mail correspondence, I answered some queries about the new health-care-insurance law put to me by Marina Galisova, a reporter for the Slovak weekly magazine Tyzden. It seems that this interview has formed the topic of an article in the magazine, although I cannot be sure because I cannot read Slovak. In any event, on the assumption that not many readers of The Beacon can read Slovak, either, I reproduce here the questions Galisova put to me and my answers.
1. Under the passed legislation, what does it mean that "every American having health insurance"? How much shall be paid by the federal government and how much by the states to gain this objective?
The new law forces everyone to buy health-care insurance. Many people already have such insurance, most of them as part of the compensation they receive from their employer. In general, these people will be able to keep their current coverage. People who do not buy health-care insurance acceptable to the government will be fined heavily, so besides having no health-care insurance, they will be punished by the government!
2. It looks unlikely that this "reform" will result in a better health care for Americans. However, can you think of at least one example where it might actually help someone?
In general, the new system will make health care worse in the United States, for many reasons. However, some persons will benefit. The major beneficiaries will be those with pre-existing conditions who are currently rejected by insurance companies (the companies do not wish to sell fire insurance to people whose houses are already on fire). The new law forbids insurance companies from rejecting any applicant because of a pre-existing condition. Owing to this new legal requirement, health-care insurance will no longer be true insurance, but merely a third-party payment system for health-care expenses.
3. Will the price of health insurance be kept down by state force? Will Americans be forced to buy health insurance — subsidized by the state? Will Americans be forced to pay premiums, as, if I remember correctly, Dr. Ron Paul has once indicated?
Premiums and benefits of health-care insurance plans are already heavily regulated by the state and federal governments. The new law places many new requirements and restrictions on the companies. It also regulates the difference between the amount they may charge older people and the amount they may charge younger people. The result will be that younger people will have to pay greater premiums than they would pay under a fair insurance scheme in a free market; that is, younger people will be forced to subsidize the health-care expenses of older people (who demand much greater amounts of health care).

Top Teachers: Samuel Turner
Holman M.S., sixth-eighth grades
Growing up, Samuel Turner always assumed that he would follow the family military tradition and end up in a job in which he designed or built airplanes, tanks and helicopters, or perhaps joined the Military Corps of Engineers.
But a Saturday morning during his senior year of high school changed all that.
Spending time at the Nottoway County home of his English teacher, the late John B. Cyrus, completely changed his perspective, said Turner. It was Cyrus – along with other teachers and principals he admired – who gave him an appreciation of the opportunity teachers have to make a difference in young lives.
Looking back, Turner said, he always had people around him who provided advice and "taught me a different way to view things."
His sister and brother both challenged and nurtured him, and he noted that both have had successful military careers, in addition to becoming teachers in their respective fields.
As a teacher of pre-engineering, technology, and 21st-century learning, Turner (who taught at Short Pump Middle School before Holman opened) said that among his biggest challenges are the misperceptions that exist about gender in that curriculum. He has found it especially rewarding, as a result, to watch female students blossom.
He described one such student who began besting older students in competitions as a sixth-grader, delivered winning campaign speeches as a seventh-grader, moved on to leadership positions in TSA (Technology Student Association) and "almost single-handedly increased the female interest in engineering, technology and TSA." Recently, he said, he was honored to provide letters of reference as she applied to schools of higher education.
Another challenge of teaching technology, he said, is what he calls the "influences of the modern Information Age."
While modern electronic marvels save time and provide instant information and entertainment, he said, they also foster a perception that technology is the answer to everything, "and that success is just a keypunch away.
"I try to instill in the students," said Turner, "that no matter what electronic gadgets we have at our disposal, they are [simply] tools . . .The greatest computer or tool ever made sits squarely on their shoulders – and its potential is limitless."
He also strives to find special and unique things about what interests each student, and to teach "every student in every class like they are preparing to go to Harvard."
Seeing his students embrace new ideas and apply their classroom lessons in exciting ways at technology competitions, he says, is "marvelous to behold."
Turner succeeds at getting to know every student, according to parents, because his work day often lasts from 7:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.
"His door is always open," marveled one parent. "Kids will hang out in his classroom both before and after school, when they need a place to 'just be', or need a shoulder to lean on. . . He teaches so much more than just technology. He welcomes all children, and finds a way to connect with each one."

A gift that should stop giving
'Jingle All the Way 2' is expectedly flawed
Was anyone asking for an extra-large helping of Larry the Cable Guy this Christmas? If so, you can thank Santa Claus for Jingle All the Way 2.
If not, you can be like the rest of us and curse Santa for his folly in creating such a film. Santa, we neither wanted nor needed this.
A follow-up to the much-derided 1996 Christmas film Jingle All the Way, Jingle All the Way 2 isn't so much a sequel as it is an odd kind of remake, offering a few original twists on the original's dad-vs-dad holiday showdown, but also copying large chunks of the original without alteration. > Read more.

Excellent restaurant. From the outside it looks like a Takeaway but the restaurant at the back is superb. The free bread with the sauce is delectable. I asked the owner for the recipe but he told me it was secret. Highly recommended and I will return again and again. It was recommended to me by my daughter who praised it highly.

Mangal was recomended to us by a friend and we have used this restaurant a number of times. We have also taken other friends to eat there.
We have always been satisfied with the friendly service and the food is always first class.
We will use it again.

Visited FM Mangal recently for a friend's birthday. The food was great. We had the FM Mangal Special with lamb. The meat was super tender and had been grilled over coals, so had a delicious bbq flavour. We also had the Imam Bayildi, which brought back memories of a trip last year to Turkey. Service was very friendly. They even surprised us with a cake and sang happy birthday. Only thing I would suggest is that they get a cover for the too bright fluorescent lightbulb over the door, which was rather distracting for those of us facing it. Overall, very warm and welcoming establishment with likely the best Turkish food south of the river.

Today I went for lunch to Mangal Restaurant with my friend. We ordered 2 orders for us in the restaurant and 2 other orders to go for our colleagues. I ordered a grilled chicken dish with salad and rice and asked for the rice to be replaced with hummus. The waitress told me that this was not possible and that I would have to pay an additional £3 for a side order of hummus. When I asked why it would be so much to replace rice with hummus especiall since my friends lunch (falafels instead of chicken) came with hummus and salad, she was adamant that there was nothing she could do for me. My lunch meal also came with a drink that I did not want as I only wanted tap water, and the rice that I did not have, and she still did not include the hummus when she brought the food. She was rude and the service was poor. For this reason I would not go back. The food itself was mediocre although i'm sure that my perception is influenced by the entire meal being off to a bad start. I paid £6 for some chicken and salad - i could have gotten that in a wrap with hummus at teh falafel shop across for £3 - I'll know where to go next time.

I ve heard lots of things about Fm Mangal and last night first time i ve tried Turkish food.I tought it was a regular kebab shop but when i entered, i realised that it was a proper Turkish restaurant.
They served lovely marinated and chargrilled bread (that was so yummy)and also grilled onions in secret red sauce on the house(i am saying secret because we couldnt learn what it was but we loved it).I always loved grilled meat but chargrill is amazing, the meat was so tender and marinate was awesome. I had quails and my friend had seabream. It was the best meal i ve ever had!
End of the meal they served us turkish liquer (i tought it was only for us but they serve it to everybody who had alcohol) and it was so tasty as well.
Today when i finished work, i didnt want to cook and i remembered fm mangal. Ive been there for takeaway. I had small adana kofte wrap (and it was only £3) and i really enjoyed it:)This time they served a glass of apple tea with a turkish delight on the house while i was waiting my food.
i recommend this place to everybody who want to have healty and tasty food. (i need to say that they v got many vegetarian and fish dishes too)
Have a sweet day

15 Cars That Couldn't Save Their Brand
History tells us that many more automakers fail than succeed, and the fields of cars at any concours or collector car show contain ample evidence. Some auto shows even specialize in so-called orphan cars. Part of the fascination for collectors is that business failure does not necessarily reflect poor design and engineering or a lack of appealin fact, a company on the brink is often moved to stretch its creative resources in the search for one big hit that will save the day. Here are 15 that couldn't quite do the job.
By Kevin A. Wilson
1962 Studebaker Avanti
Sherwood Egbert was named head of Studebaker in 1961 and, deciding the company needed a halo car to revamp its image, sketched out some ideas within weeks of taking the helm. The Raymond Loewy design team that handled Studebaker delivered the Avanti personal luxury coupe. It would have a fiberglass body, the first standard disc brakes on an American car, and an optional Paxton supercharger for its V-8. Egbert figured he could sell 20,000but he could build only 1200 the first year, and found only 2300 more buyers before the Studebaker South Bend factory closed in December of 1963. Even so, the Avanti established such a firm list of aspiring owners that several individuals "revived" the Avanti as the base of stand-alone car companies in a succession of repeated failures over the next 40 years.

Santos CEO pleads for stable gas policy before pollPUBLISHED: 22 Feb 2013 00:05:28 | UPDATED: 22 Feb 2013 04:10:39PUBLISHED: 22 Feb 2013 PRINT EDITION: 22 Feb 2013
We don't want anything that wobbles confidence, says David Knox, Santos chief executive. Photo: David Mariuz
Angela Macdonald-Smith
Santos chief executive David Knox has called for a "very steady hand on the [policy] tiller" through the election period and beyond to avoid jeopardising the $180 billion being invested in liquefied natural gas.
Mr Knox said any policy changes that restrict gas supply into the market, such as gas reservation, topped his list of concerns. He also supported retaining the carbon price.
A stable policy and fiscal regime were among factors that are essential over the next 12 months, which are critical in LNG construction, he told The Australian Financial Review.
That would ensure companies such as Santos can deliver their projects and pave the way for a potential $100 billion second wave of investment in LNG.
"We're in the middle of this massive investment and we need that investment to be successful," Mr Knox said.
"I'm just stressing the importance for the health of the Australian economy that we don't have any major changes in policy or direction in the next 12 months. We don't want anything that wobbles confidence that we can deliver this."
Santos, which reports full-year earnings is building the $US18.5 billion GLNG gas export project in Gladstone, one of seven LNG ventures under development around the country.
Mr Knox said 2013 will be one of the most critical years in investment in LNG, both on the west and east coasts, underlining the need for stability.
His comments reflect worries among industry leaders that the long lead-up to the September 14 election and a potential change of government will amount to a drawn-out period of policy uncertainty and instability.
Mr Knox voiced particular concern about moves by the NSW government to further tighten rules on coal seam gas, which would result in much of the resource being left in the ground. Talk about policies that would see gas set aside for the domestic market were also worrying.
"Discussions or moves to restrict the flow of that gas or reserve it for domestic markets will stop development and leave much of that gas in the ground," he said. "For NSW this is of great concern, as supply challenges are looming for a state so dependent on other states for its gas supplies."
AGL Energy chief executive Michael Fraser has also this week criticised the new NSW restrictions on CSG, which include no-go zones and two kilometre buffer zones around residential areas.
Origin Energy managing director Grant Kingon Thursday added his voice to those worried about policymaking through the election period, particularly in a "tightening economy". Origin is a partner in one of the other LNG ventures being built in Australia, the $24.7 billion Australia Pacific LNG project.
"With a seven-month election campaign, how many policies are we going to see come out of government and opposition that are not necessarily as soundly economically based as you'd like?" he said.
On carbon, Mr Knox voiced a preference for the Gillard government's policy to be retained. Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has pledged to repeal the carbon price legislation should the Coalition assume power.
But Mr Knox said he wanted to see a move to international pricing of carbon as quickly as possible.
"That is broadly speaking the policy of the current government and that will minimise the impacts as we move there and would be broadly understood," he said.
He said if a Coalition government sought to change the legislation it had to be done "in a very thoughtful and measured manner" and with the full support of major investors.
Any changes in fiscal settings that destroyed the value of existing projects or removed incentives for exploration would also be a worry.
Mr Knox said community support was another vital factor for the gas industry's future. "We recognise it's extremely important that we bring the community along with us and that we use really good science in underpinning further development."
Mr Knox said stable policies were important to ensure Australia remains competitive against new LNG supply sources in North America and east Africa, particularly given the strong Australian dollar that is driving up the cost of labour.
"At the end of the day I believe we can be competitive and we will be competitive, but it's not a given, it's something we have to work extremely hard on," he said.
"We have a massive opportunity to unlock Australia's reserves through this investment and it's a prize that we really need to think very carefully about how to achieve it and it's a prize that's well worth having."
Santos's full-year earnings are expected to rise by about 30 per cent to $592 million, as sales hit a record $3.22 billion on the back of higher oil output and higher gas prices.

Question: I am really disappointed that Glee is returning to McKinley and that they are adding more characters to fill out their already shortened final season. The last few seasons of Glee have been less than stellar, but the last handful of episodes set in New York were awesome. Give me New York and throw McKinley away for good. Even with the cliché that was Rachel going from student to Broadway star to TV star almost overnight, I enjoyed watching the more adult struggles of these characters. Now I feel betrayed, like someone dangled the proverbial carrot and then took it away. With 12 episodes left, I want them to focus on the original glee-clubbers following their dreams into the adult world. Sigh. Is this a thing with Ryan Murphy, where his shows start strong for a few seasons and then implode at the end? I hated the last few seasons of Nip/Tuck. — Olivia

For the record, the comic is not derived from any personal feelings on the subject. I avoid playing the "Waaah, X Class is overpowered/Learn2Play, nub" wheel-of-fortune.
While I'm certainly under no impression that every class is perfectly balanced with every other class across every situation, I do subscribe to the notion that if you are unable to adequately fulfill your class' role, the problem is more likely to lie in the skill/gear department, as opposed to the "the developer's girlfriend must play X class, that's why it's better than my class" line of reasoning.
It occurs to me that that may just be an elaborate way of saying "Learn2Play", but while balancing is an ongoing process, I have seen any and every class in WoW played both poorly (looking at you, Fail-Druid) and fantastically. I think a lot of people need to come to terms with the strengths and limitations of their class choices.
If you're complaining because your Warlock can't tank 25-man Ulduar, it's entirely possible that the problem doesn't lie with Blizzard's "inability to balance classes".

In todays installment of the Worst Moments in the 2011 Washington Nationals season, we recall July 15th when the Nationals lost 11-1 to the Braves for their 10,000th win as a franchise.
This game held in Atlanta was each teams first action since the All-Star Break in Arizona and it quickly became evident the Nationals heads were still in the desert. In the opening frame Nats starter Livan Hernandez allowed four consecutive run scoring hits to Freddie Freeman, Dan Uggla, David Ross, and Nate McLouth giving the Braves a quick 4-1 lead at the end of the first and instantly sucking the life out of visiting Nationals.
Things weren't faring any better at the plate as Braves starter Tim Hudson was at his best earning his 9th win of the year going 7 innings allowing one run on 7 hits, 7 strikeouts, and one walk. Following Hudson was Scott Linebrink and George Sherrill who each tossed a scoreless inning in relief.
Five more runs in the sixth and seventh innings put the game completly out of reach as the Braves had the commanding 11-1 lead they would not reliquish.
Washington had managed to finish the first half with a .500 record and were looking to start the final three months on the right foot against one of the divisions best in the Atlanta Braves, who were in search of the franchises 10,000th win. Viewed by some to be a dark horse in the race for a Wild Card spot, this game was only a reminder of how much work still had to be done.
At the time, this game was considered to be the Nationals worst performance of the season, you be the judge and check out moment No. 4 and No. 5.

Tremont Theatre
396 Main Street,
1 person favorited this theater
The theater was built in 1926 and was a three-story brick structure referred to as the Olderman Building, after the builder, Max Olderman. The theater was on the first floor with two storefronts, bowling alley on the second and the Ansonia Dress Company on the third. The nearby Capitol Theatre fared much better.
The Tremont Theatre was operated by Warner Bros. Circuit Management Corp. by 1941, and screened many westerns during the 1940's and early-1950's. It showed its last movie in 1951 but was listed as a movie theater until 1953, so I assume it lay vacant.
It saw a serious fire in 1932 and 1954 on the first floor and one in the basement in 1956. It was razed in 1963 for the town's redevelopment.

The 'Tremont Theater' was on the southwesterly corner of Main & Tremont Sts. Following the "Flood of '55", in the '60's 'Reconstruction" razed virtually all the buildings south of Tremont Street, down to front Street in Ansonia. A Mall and other retail buildings, took their place. That Mall subsequently folded, and a mini-mega store area has taken it's place.

News arrives of yet another "Afghan soldier" shooting at NATO troops. This time the Afghan was the only casualty, but previously NATO soldiers have been killed (at least 60 last year) in such 'green on blue' attacks.
The death toll is but part of the picture. The U.S. has a policy of only announcing those attacks that are fatal. Attacks which wound but do not kill are excluded from bulletins, and there may be many for all we know.
Why are our troops being openly exposed to their murderers? The answer is wilful denial: wilful denial by commanders and politicians of Islam's doctrines. The added pain is that these are easily ascertainable. Islam's texts instruct Muslims to kill non-Muslims. Here is a sample:
Koran 9:5 "Kill Jews and Christians wherever you find them."
This is not simply a quaint and antiquated instruction from times past. The Koran is held to be "true from eternity to eternity" (Sam Solomon, former professor of Sharia law). To deny any verse in it is punishable by death (Manual of Islamic Law o8.7(7)). That death penalty can be inflicted by anyone without retaliation, because the offender is "someone who deserves to die" (Manual o8.4).
Many are the clerics and politicians who openly instruct killing of all Jews and Christians.
Ali Gomaa, grand mufti of Egypt, the highest Muslim religious authority in the world:
"Muslims must kill non-believers wherever they are unless they convert to Islam."
Citizen Warrior, October 2010
Selim Panni in Bangladesh casts Jews and Christians as evil and preaches killing them or raping female members of Jewish and Christian societies as a "divine task".
Tea and Politics, 24 November 2010
Ahmad Abu Halabiya, a Hamas MP and GMJ International Central Committee member:
"Have no mercy on the Jews, no matter where they are, in any country. Fight them, wherever you are. Wherever you meet them, kill them."
Atlas Shrugs, 30 March 2012
Ayatollah Khomeini:
"Those who know nothing of Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war. Those (who say this) are witless. Islam says: kill all of the unbelievers as they would kill you all."
Logans Warning
"A religion that does not include [provisions for] killing and massacre is incomplete. ... Killing is the same as mercy."
Abu Hafs Al-Masri Brigades, Madrid bombers who killed 202 commuters:
"Kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they have driven you out; for internal strife [Fitna] is worse than killing."
Koran 2:191
A further serious threat to allied troops is Islam's doctrine of "Permissible Lying" (Manual r8.2). Under this doctrine it is completely permissible for a Muslim to lie to and deceive a non-Muslim in the cause of Islam. Thus one fatal attack happened in September 2012 when an Afghan feigned injury to take two British soldiers off their guard: it was successful, and he shot them dead. "War is deceit", said Mohammed, who authorised his followers to lie. The doctrine has an Arabic name, taqiyya.
Hear an American congressman, Air Force veteran Rep. Rick Womick of Tennessee. He maintains that Muslims should be barred from serving in the U.S. military:
Personally, I don't trust one Muslim in our military because they're commanded to lie to us through the term called Taqiyya. And if they truly are a devout Muslim, and follow the Quran and the Sunnah, then I feel threatened because they're commanded to kill me.
Thus does an American congressman articulate what every allied soldier probably thinks, but is prevented from saying by the attitude of wilful denial imposed by politicians and senior commanders.
Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch maintains that President Obama and senior military commanders should be impeached for wilfully placing American troops at risk of murder in these situations, by blindly adhering to a policy that anyone can see is fatally flawed.
For every British politician or senior commander who supports this policy here is the challenge: let him stand forward, in the knowledge of the doctrines set out above, and go out into the mountain country with an Afghan trainee policeman CARRYING A LOADED GUN. I would not volunteer. Our brave men are COMMANDED to go: they are not permitted to disobey. Wilful denial is killing them.

Liberty GB will address all the political issues Great Britain currently faces, something the three main parties (along with UKIP) so conspicuously fail to do. The Liberal Democrats, Labour and Conservatives manifestly refuse to discuss the most important issues of our time, namely mass immigration from the EU and Third World, the steady rise of fundamentalist Islam and the hijacking of traditional British culture and institutions by well-organised left-wing 'progressives'. There is no guarantee at such a late stage that Britain can be saved, but Liberty GB will endeavour to put a stop to our rapidly accelerating descent into economic, educational, moral, cultural and social ruin. Britain could be a wonderful country again, but it will take politics bordering on the revolutionary to achieve this vision. If you are of similar mind, Liberty GB welcomes your participation.
We'd very much like to hear from you.

At Maker Faire UK I wanted to have an exhibit anyone could interact with. So I took along my robots and modified one of the Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio (MRDS) Visual Programming Language (VPL) examples to allow both speech and Xbox controller control of them. Note to product teams: shorter product names would be appreciated :-)
All my mobile robots use a differential drive system, that is two wheels independently driven by their own motor. These drive systems allow the robots to spin on the spot or turn progressively in an arc as well as go forwards and backwards just be setting each motors power settings. So both motors going in the same direction at the same speed the robot moves forwards or backwards. One motor going slower than the other causes the robot to turn progressively in one direction. One motor going forward and one going back at the same rates causes the robot to spin.
Because of the way MRDS abstracts common actuators and sensors with generic programming interfaces it means that despite each of my mobile robots having a different differential drive system they can still all be controlled by the same program. All I have to do is configure the program with a manifest file to point it at the right implementation of the differential drive for each robot. I don't have to change the code of the program at all :-)
Using VPL makes programming robots pretty easy. Your just joining up advanced functions like speech recognition and text to speech, sonar, drive systems etc by defining what output goes into what input. Knowing the available inputs and outputs of each function is the hardest part :-)
There are many things I like about MRDS:
The big news flash is that since 26th March Microsoft's DREAMSPARK means that even High Schools can get the full MRDS Academic version for free!!! Along with all the other 'developer' stuff they might want.
Watch my short video on the speech and xbox controller control program I took to Maker Faire – then have a go yourself!

Is there any herbal remedy that can lower my PSA number?
- Q: My prostate PSA numbers have risen from a very low number to right at the upper limit on the PSA scale. Is there any herbal remedy that could lower my numbers? Can bike riding cause prostate damage?
- A: Sorry to hear about your rise in PSA. The most common natural product for prostate health is saw palmetto. You may want to speak to your doctor about it prior to starting any new supplements just to be sure that it will not interact with current medications or health conditions. As for bicycle riding causing prostate damage, I don't believe that it does. Normally, prostate health just decreases as we age, and most men will encounter some form of prostate problem. Good luck, and hopefully your next test results will be better. Megan Uehara, PharmD

BILLINGS - If you have an outstanding warrant, beware.
This week, Billings police and the Yellowstone County Sheriff's Office are actively tracking down those individuals as a part of a warrant roundup.
It's been a great success for police, with about 90 warrants resolved so far.
Of the county's 400 outstanding warrants, seven have been addressed.
The warrant round-up is expected to last throughout the week.

Yes, Taz said a bad mood by Bobby Roode instead of move and ran with it. Welcome to another edition of Booking Impact! here on TNANews.com, where I will be weighing in on the outcomes of tonight's matches and let you know how I would have booked tonight's in ring action. How would YOU book tonight's matches?
Taryn Terrell Vs. Tara
Broadcast: Taryn Terrell def. Tara
Ric's Booking Sheet: Taryn Terrell def. Tara
Assuming the feud with Gail Kim is over, Taryn Terrell needs to be showcased in order to build her popularity and gain momentum. Terrell goes over in my booking sheet for this reason with the only difference being that Gail Kim would have made her way from the entrance to observe. These two need a little more extension with their feud. A look at one another after the match and the feud continues.
Rob Terry Vs. Jessie Godderz
Broadcast: Rob Terry def. Jessie Godderz
Ric's Booking Sheet: Rob Terry def. Jessie Godderz
A day or so ago, TNA posted a TNA ReAction video on Rob Terry. In that video, Terry stated that he will dominate going forward. For that reason, Terry is over on my booking sheet just as it played out on TV. Rob Terry has a good look and with the proper training on the mic and fan interaction, can be a force to be reckoned with. Book him in a match with a talent a little higher on the food chain that won't be hurt by a loss to Terry and let's start the process of building him up in some capacity.
Hernandez & Chavo Guerrero (C) Vs. Austin Aries & Bobby Roode for the TNA Tag Team Championship
Broadcast: Hernandez & Chavo def. Aries & Roode to retain
Ric's Booking Sheet: Hernandez & Chavo def. Aries & Roode to retain
My booking sheet has this match of the night bout playing out as it did on TV. The only change having to be an in ring confrontation between Bobby Roode and Austin Aries about their flaws (or Bobby's flaws as per Aries) after their loss. This is a big picture scenario and the big picture is the eminent break up of Aries/ Roode. We all know these two are great as a tag team but greater singles competitors with a future that can go beyond. Great story telling and exactly how it should have gone down.
Velvet Sky (C) Vs. Mickie James for the TNA Knockouts Championship
Broadcast: Velvet Sky def. Mickie James to retain
Ric's Booking Sheet: Velvet Sky def. Mickie James to retain
Velvet needs to be a credible champion and to do that, she needs to defeat established talent with recognizable names. Tonight, it was Mickie James and my booking sheet agrees with TNA on this one as well. The match on TV was as good as it was going to get but I would have liked to have seen the roll up victory by Sky done in the middle of the ring. Mickie James, agitated over her loss, would muster enough sportsmanship to help Velvet up and shake her hand… and then pulling her in to let her know that this isn't going to be their last meeting.
Ric's Spots
- The crowd was much more alive tonight than in the past 2 weeks. Our own Alex Barie was in attendance tonight and mentioned that the crowd began to slow down later in the evening. Let's see how next week's show (taped tonight) looks on TV.
- A live show with no X-Division, just a quick mention of an apparent choice the fans can make on who will get a chance to compete in an X-Division championship match or qualifier. Bad booking on TNA's part.
- The show was too Aces & 8′s heavy as usual. The heat is really starting to die off now but the pieces are being put together for what might be a Team TNA reboot and the end of the Aces on the horizon. I'm not talking about Fortune either.
It was a 4 for 4 night in regards to the booking of tonight's matches between myself and TNA. Do you agree with the booking on tonight's broadcast? Would you have changed some of the outcomes? Sound off below. This isn't TV-PG but keep it nice folks.

more peeks and changing clothes
{more random peeks into The Things We Do}
Hi and THANK YOU everyone for the wonderful feedback on my little indie parenting book! My kids keep feeding volumes of new material my way that I'll have to hand write in my own copy. Six year old asked yesterday in all seriousness if she could have a vending machine in her bedroom ;)
Be not alarmed if you see a flurry of activity going on with my header and sidebar -- my blog hadn't changed clothes for almost two years and it was starting to stink, digitally speaking. I'll be updating my favorite art/craft blog links over the next few weeks, so if you'd like me to include yours, just let me know!

Can a Student Receive a Pell Grant for a Second College Degree?
Mark Kantrowitz
October 01, 2012
I am a 25-year-old woman looking to go back to school for a second degree in a different field of study than my original degree. I am married to an enlisted sailor and currently unemployed. For my first degree I did not fill out the FAFSA and therefore I did not receive any federal aid in the form of grants or loans. Now that I'm wanting to go back to school I will fill out the FAFSA, but I was wondering if the fact that I have not filled it out before and have not used federal resources might count in my favor to actually receive federal grants this time around. Is that possible or will the fact that I'm seeking a second degree make me completely ineligible for that type of aid? — Diana R.
Eligibility for the Federal Pell Grant is restricted to students who do not already have a Bachelor's degree.
If a student is seeking a second Bachelor's degree, she will not be able to get a Pell Grant regardless of whether she received federal student aid in the past or not. (Such a student remains eligible for the Federal Stafford loan, up to the annual and aggregate loan limits, as well as the Federal Work-Study program.)
If the student's previous degree was an Associate's degree or certificate, however, she will potentially be eligible for a Pell Grant. So long as the student has not yet received a Bachelor's degree, she remains eligible for the Pell Grant.
Aside from the restriction to a first Bachelor's degree, a student who has not previously used the Pell Grant will have more semesters of Pell Grant eligibility remaining than a student who previously received Pell Grant funding.
Pell Grants and Lifetime Eligibility Used (LEU)
The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2012 imposed a new lifetime limit on the number of semesters of Pell Grant funding available to a student, effective July 1, 2012. Undergraduate students are now eligible to receive the equivalent of at most 12 semesters of Pell Grant funding. (Previously students were eligible for up to 18 semesters of Pell Grant eligibility.) The limit applies to all Pell Grant funding ever received by the student, not just funding received since the effective date of the legislation.
The US Department of Education has introduced a new concept and acronym to measure a student's remaining eligibility for the Pell Grant. The Lifetime Eligibility Used (LEU) is the number of years worth of Pell Grant funding remaining, expressed as a percentage. For example, 100% represents a full year of eligibility, so 600% represents the equivalent of 12 semesters of eligibility. If a student receives a Pell Grant while enrolled on a half-time basis for a full award year, the Pell Grant will be half of the Pell Grant to which the student was entitled, increasing the LEU by 50%. Likewise, if a student receives a Pell Grant while enrolled full-time for just one semester, the LEU will be increased by 50%.
In 2009-10 and 2010-11, students enrolled in accelerated degree programs could have received two Pell Grants in a single year. Such students will have their LEUs increased by 200% for the two Pell Grants, not 100%.

Read Adam's blog post about the US Airways-American merger at our Capital Tonight blog here.
CHARLOTTE – American Airlines' new TV ads point to a transformation at the 79-year-old carrier, complete with a new logo and a voice-over from Mad Men star Jon Hamm.
The new American logo could be on its way to more airplanes around the world. Its anticipated merger with US Airways could be announced as soon as Tuesday, according to media reports from American's headquarters in Dallas.
Travelers at Charlotte-Douglas International said they're concerned the deal could cause ticket prices to rise.
"I think it might have an impact on pricing because it eliminates the competition," said flier Mike Sullivan.
But Charlotte-Douglas Aviation Director Jerry Orr believes the deal is a win for North Carolina.
"We'll be dealing with the world's largest airline and it's always a little bit of a comfort dealing with a big company rather than a little company," he said.
US Airways employs about 7,000 people in North Carolina, most in Charlotte. American airlines has 1,600 employees in the state. Orr expects post-merger layoffs at both airlines, but he said he thinks the combined company will add positions at the Charlotte hub.
"Well you always expect some job growth," Orr said. "That's not always a given. But I would certainly expect some job growth."
The merged company -- likely to be called American Airlines -- would give North Carolina travelers more access to international destinations.
"Particularly in Central and South America," Orr said. Those are developing economies and that's where the growth is going to be over the next 20 years."
Getting to those destinations should be business-as-usual for now. Federal regulators would have to approve any deal.

text: I've been thinking about trying my hand at a traditional English ale from the 13th century, perhaps using a wooden barrel for the job. But that will take quite some time before I'm ready. Meanwhile, I've been able to keep on track with my goal to start at least one new batch of mead every month, starting back in April. I'm a little short on 5 gallon carboys, so for July and August I used my two 6.5 gallon carboys to start 7 gallon batches. I'll buy some more 5s for September. Recently, when I racked the two batches I started in May, the flavor seemed a little weak. They were brewed with my normal 3 pounds per gallon ratio. Because I used the same honey for my August mead, I increased it to 4 pounds per gallon. It can't hurt to have more honey, because plenty of people like really sweet mead and there's always the option of watering the wine. But if I add honey, that starts the fermentation cycle all over again and sets the timer back to zero. I don't really want to do this. Perhaps some real age will round out the flavor - any thoughts? The problems with May's meads is disappointing because I'm using them to conduct an experiment on the difference between boiling and pasteurizing.
