Under the weight of massive fines for minor and non-existent infractions, in a campaign against opposition media and press of all forms, plus criminal charges against the owner obviously motivated in censorship by way of a thousand cuts, the Chavez government succeeded in driving Globovision out of business.
The government did not even try to hide the fact that they wanted to drive the ownership to one more friendly to them. That has just happened.
The new ownership at Globovision has suddenly gotten much more cozy with Chavez.
I have watched the coverage on this channel. They blasted the Chavez government takeover of several hundred radio stations across the country. Using laws that were never ever enforced before, technical infractions having to do with information on forms and the dates that forms were submitted –no doubt often due to minor officials dragging their feet and expecting a little "grease"– the telecommunications agency cancelled their licenses and gave them to Chavista-friendly ownership.
In the same way, one massive fine for violating a statute that banned direct criticism of the president, they shut down another television station.
Here's how the fascist/socialist revisionist social injustice organizations have twisted the history. Pop quiz: What is wrong with this question:
Ríos Montt is best known outside Guatemala for heading a military regime (1982–1983) that was partly responsible for having defeated the guerrillas through the "guns and beans" campaign, maintaining "If you are with us, we'll feed you, if not, we'll kill you"
It is also a lesson in how to read between the revisionist lines. "With us" meaning anybody who does not take up arms against the government. The killing reference is for those who do kill not only soldiers but civilians whenever the civilians do not support them.
Civilians have no choice if any government does not support them, like when they disarm decent citizens. But this "guns and beans" reference, what it REALLY meant, was that the government of Efrain Rios Montt began ARMING THE INDIANS and training them so they could defend themselves effectively against the guerrillas. His program taught them how to organize themselves to protect themselves.
And since poverty and neglect are the big bugaboos that guerrillas use to get some moral credulity among populations they plan to subject to their rule, Rios Montt organized those programs to make sure they had participation in the national economy.
That is one big reason they voted for him in that area by majority in elections that his party lost elsewhere.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

This scent did nothing for me, I won't buy it again
Avon describes this one as "a cosmopolitan blend of lush fruit and passionate wild rose." They must be referring to those roses they sell at the counter at the gas station. This smells cheap and nasty, like dollar-store air freshener.

Youngsters participating in sports programs at the Simpsonville Parks and Recreation Department in Kentucky will never complain about being bored. Department Director Chris Truelock makes sure of that.

Cocktail, New York Style
In our March/April 2012 issue, cocktail historian David Wondrich traces the emergence of the cocktail in New York City. "There's something about the quick, cold snap of a well-made cocktail that fits Gotham's pace," he says. This recipe, he says, "is for the cocktail as it was when it first captured the hearts and livers of New York drinkers, made with either genever—Dutch gin—or French brandy, and served on ice. If you want to replace the sugar and water with a teaspoon or so of rich simple syrup (two parts sugar and one part water), stir the drink with ice and strain it into a chilled coupe, well, that's just what New Yorkers did to it once the city started to really jump, back around 1850."
1 cube Demerara sugar½ oz. water3 dashes aromatic bitters (such as Fee Brothers Whiskey Barrel-Aged Bitters or The Bitter Truth Aromatic Bitters) or Angostura bitters 2 oz. Bols genever or Cognac Ice cubesTools: muddler, barspoonGlass: Old Fashioned or small tumblerIn an Old Fashioned glass, muddle a cube of Demerara sugar (or a teaspoon of loose Demerara) with ½ an ounce of water and 3 dashes of bitters. Add 1 or 2 large ice cubes and 2 ounces of genever or Cognac. Stir and serve. Optional: Add 1 or 2 dashes (the kind of dashes you'd get from a bitters bottle) of absinthe into the glass and twist a thinly cut lemon peel over the top, not forgetting to rub the peel around the rim.

have you ever wander, how there are no longer action films being shown among philippine cinemas?
i just realized this after seeing jeric raval as one of dennis padilla and long mejia's guests in kapamilya deal or no deal.
when dennis called for help in the second set of the game, he called in JERIC RAVAL. it was a long pause before i was able to recall the name. i finally remembered him as one of the action stars in the 90s. he is often partnered with either jennifer sevilla or shirley fuentes. he also contributed to the era of black leather jackets and maong pants together with robin padilla.
i immediately grabbed my phone and sent a group message to all of my friends indicating the comeback apparition of the former action star. most of their response was, who is jeric raval?
at the back of my head, how come these guys don't know jeric raval? i am just an older or probably a year younger to them. so how come they don't know him?
probably, i thought its been a while since we've seen jeric raval. or better yet, its been a while since we've since a philippine action movie.
philippine cinema today, is bombarded by either fantasy, comedy, drama or love story movies. the golden years of both action and sexy movies had begun losing its spot in the movie screen except on specific movie houses in recto and cubao, which still shows cynthia luster movies. come to think of it, probably our country just have had enough of the fights, violence and high volume of rape cases over the past years. so the movie industry decided to uplift the masses' morale by giving lighter movies to watch.
just a thought that i pondered.

pag sinabing pinoy action movies ito yung pumapasok sa isip ko:
1. habulan ng mga sasakyan tapos biglang babangga sa fruit stand o kaya naman sa tindahan ng samalamig.
2. si action star tumatakbo kasama si leading lady habang nakikipag barilan. sabay din silang tumatalon sa waterfalls, at pag may sumasabog.
3. bago magbarilan sina action star at si kontrabida, magbabatuhan muna sila ng mga malulupet na linya.
pinoy action movies...gone are the days. lol

jeric raval in estribo gang... pure testosterone. I was a sixth-grader back then (I think).
I love the 90s young action stars (Raval, Diaz, Legazpi, Padilla).
Nowadays, young leading men can't jump. John Lloyd cries a lot in his movies. Well, that can't us turn on.

nag tataka ang lahat sa biglang pag kawala ng action sa industria ng pelikula.. nag simula ang lahat sa pesteng piracy.. sinong producer ang maglalakas ng loob na mag labas ng milyon sa pag gawa ng quality pictures kung hindi pa naman na ipalalabas sa sinehan eh pinag pipiyestahan na sa bangketa.. ang mga drama movies hindi ganon kalaki ang puhunan dahil puro luha lang ang kailangan.kikita talaga ang isang movie lalo na pag sikat ang mga artista..pero tubong lugaw lang yun.. pag action naman kailangan maraming goons, iba't ibang lokasyon na pag sasabugan ng mga kotse etc. mas madugo ang salaping kakailanganin d2.. at kung minsan maraming chicks na involve kaya maraming artistang binabayaran,.. pero sulit naman.. nung panahon ni jeric raval nakikita ko na rin sya sa tv.. sayang talaga.. nawala na lang sya na parang bula.. sana makabalik na sya kasi maraming nag hihintay sa kanya..

may mga action movies pa din naman ngayon..yun nga lang may halong fantasy na tulad ng mga movies ni Bong Revilla na entry for film festival. Sya na lang din ang gumagawa ng Action movie. I remember pa dati na hindi nawawala yung mga advertisement ng mga action movies kapag nanunuod ako ng TV. Sayang, Ace Vergel was among my super favorite Action Star, Jeric raval, Ace Espinosa and Roi Vinzon to complete the set. I hope to see them again kahit sa mga teleserye na lang din.

sana maibalik ang action films.
Nakakamiss talaga, sana magtulungan ang mga dating action stars na maibalik ito. Kung noon ang gaganda ng mga production halos magkasingtulad sa mga hong kong movies noon. Halos magkasabayan lang pero napag iwanan na kasi tayo. Magsaganoonman, naniniwala pa rin ako na kayang makipagsabayan uli ng action films ng Pilipinas. Hopefully.

Finally starting!
Find a Conversation
Finally starting!
|Sun, 09-27-2009 - 11:28pm
My wife and I FINALLY got married (technically a civil union here in Jersey but a marriage to us) last weekend and then of course I got my period after the only 30 day cycle of my entire life (I have PCOS and have been having 45 day cycles for the past several months in a row, which is remarkably regular for me). As a result, we weren't able to start the Clomid and injectables for this cycle in time because our next RE appointment isn't until October 5th, which would have been the day before my AF was SUPPOSED to arrive, thus giving me time to fill the prescription before CD 3. So now we are waiting for the next cycle to begin so we can do our first donor insemination! I am a little upset that we had yet another delay in this incredibly long wait to begin officially trying but I know it is good in a way because we are moving in a few weeks and now I definitely won't be pregnant for the move. Good for the diminished amount of stress but bad because I will now have no excuse to avoid the heavy lifting! Mostly we are both just over the moon excited that it is all finally happening after many years of planning and waiting and health problems and more waiting. I know it will probably be very difficult to get pregnant and may take a very long time but I think it will help tremendously to know that we are actually doing something to make a pregnancy happen and not just waiting and wishing and dreaming. Hoping for good luck though. I hope you all are doing well and would love any advice those of you who have undergone donor insemination may have for a young couple just starting out. :D
|Mon, 09-28-2009 - 8:46am
Congratulations Lauren! I know all about the waiting. I have been waiting to start my donor egg cycle since April- our first two donors didn't work out before we could even start and now we are on donor #3 waiting for confirmation. Then it will be waiting for her to get her tests done, waiting to synce up, waiting for the stims, waiting, waiting waiting! It's a bummer! But at least you will get to start in a month- and the time will fly by and it will be here before you know it! You'll be busy and distracted with the move so that will help too. I also try to read, cook and watch a lot of movies- helps to keep your mind off of things. Lots of luck!

The neon bible: A chat with 'New York Neon' author Thomas E. Rinaldi about the city's most stylish signs
Bond Clothing Store sign was a mainstay of Times Square in the 1940s and 50s. For more on Bond's unusual transition after that, read my article from 2007 on Bond International Casino. Picture courtesy Life Magazine, Lisa Larsen photographer
New York Neon is the Bowery Boys Book of the Month for July, a superb review of the history of neon signs in New York City and a delectable catalog of some of the finest neon works still in the city today. My full review is here.
The author Thomas E. Rinaldi also runs a great website on the subject. I asked him a few questions about the current state of New York's most classic form of signage:
Why does the glow of a neon sign continue to endure and fascinate people over other architectural forms from the same period of the early-mid 20th century?
Thomas Rinaldi: I think a large part of the appeal of old signs is their rarity. The odds of any commercial sign lasting more than a few years are incredibly slim; for this reason, old signs really stand out, in a way that turns out to be of widespread appeal. This is especially true in NYC today, where old signs have added appeal by way of their association with old, independent businesses that have become almost an endangered species in the city of late.
How does New York's representatives in neon compare to those in other neon-friendly cities like Las Vegas or Los Angeles?
TR: The old neon signs one finds around New York today are actually very modest compared to those of Vegas or LA, or the kind of "roadside Americana" signs one associates with Route 66. I find this interesting in and of itself. Sure, New York had its extravagant signs in places like Times Square. But most of the neon that went up in New York was relatively humble, for a variety of reasons.
First of all, there are the obvious space constraints of any urban storefront. While some pretty imaginative storefront signs appeared before WWII, the signs became increasingly spare after the War, partly because of restrictive zoning, partly because of labor costs (most of the New York sign shops were union), and - my belief - partly because of the general postwar trend away from urban centers and toward suburban development and roadside culture.
Below: The neon sign at the Village Vanguard in Greenwich Village, a facsimile of one that originally appeared here in the 1940s.
Neon lends its appeal to a certain nostalgic image of New York. Are there any uses in classic print, TV or film that stand out to you as particularly striking?
TR: I found that the classic, iconic image of New York neon noir is spread out in little scattered fragments. There are a handful of classic noir films set in New York in which you'll see neon in the backdrop - films like I Wake Up Screaming and Where The Sidewalk Ends. But some of the best cinematic depictions of New York's neon heyday aren't noir films at all: Pillow Talk, for instance, is a goofy comedy, or The Sweet Smell of Success, which is probably the single best go-to for shots of midcentury, neon-festooned New York.
Neon storefront signs were so incredibly ubiquitous in cities like New York that they crop up just about everywhere - in noir films, yes, but not just those set in New York. I would suggest that the popular association of neon with the nocturnal cityscape is not something born unto any one city, medium or genre, but a composite of scattered fragments that add up to a collective ideal.
Below: The trailer to Murder My Sweet, a wild, smoky film noir starring Dick Powell that effectively uses neon to help set the mood.
It seems the most difficult task you laid out for yourself in 'New York Neon' is tracking down the stories of dozens of still-extant individual signs. What's the secret to many of these classic signs surviving for so long?
TR: To a large extent, it's luck of the draw. But also, I found that old signs tended to be more densely collected in certain kinds of neighborhoods, like the Upper West Side or Greenwich Village. Places that could still sustain little family-owned businesses, even through the period of New York's financial crisis. Places not too rich but not too destitute either. Now, however, they've become scarce even in those neighborhoods.
What's your personal favorite New York neon sign, both of those presently existing and those from the past?
TR: Depends on what day you ask me! Ones that usually come to mind, though, are Nathan's Famous and the Wonder Wheel out in Coney, the Dublin House on West 79th Street, Radio City Music Hall and Patsy's Restaurant in Midtown.
The P&G Bar sign, formerly on the Upper West Sign, is my favorite of the signs that have disappeared in recent years. I also really miss the Bright Food Shop's sign in Chelsea.
There were some great relics that disappeared just a little before my time - places like the Terminal Bar, across from the Port Authority Bus Terminal, or the Penn Bar & Grill, by Penn Station, that I wish I'd photographed. And then there are those that vanished long, long ago - a funny place called the "Barrel Of Fun" nightclub in the West 50s comes to mind, but really, of the thousands and thousands of neon signs that have come and gone from Manhattan alone, the list could go on almost forever.

Having devoted so much time to the classic beauty of neon, does it make you a little nauseous to even look at LED sign by this point?
TR: Actually, it's sort of the opposite. Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but I find that LEDs have facilitated some fairly decent, interesting new signs, sort of like the early days of neon all over again - much more creative stuff than the boring, fluorescent-and-vinyl signs that have been the norm for the last few decades.
Still, LEDs have a tremendously long way to go before they could give us illuminated signage that holds a candle to typical neon storefront signs of the 1930s or 1950s, in terms of creativity and craft. Whereas neon signs were designed to be repaired rather than replaced, LEDs are essentially disposable, and it's heartbreaking that they've taken such a huge toll on the neon industry around the world.
The flip side is that LEDs are an incredibly versatile artificial light source, so - maybe there's hope for better signs down the road. But neon is still so unique that I expect it will always have a niche, even though we'll likely be seeing less and less of it in the years to come.

Grilled Shrimp with Quinoa
Recipe Courtesy of Fork Restaurant
Make Thursday special with this elegant dish. This recipe will be demonstrated at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital's Heart Health Day.
Serves 4 portions as an appetizer
- 12 pieces (each peeled and deveined) shrimp 16/20 size
- 1 cup golden quinoa
- 12 ounces vegetable stock
- ½ cup white onion finely diced
- 2 ounces olive oil
- 1 small head fennel
- 1 seedless cucumber
- 2 ribs celery peeled and washed
- 1 lemon
- 2 sprigs mint
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
- 2 sprigs basil chopped
- ½ teaspoon cayenne
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- Sea salt
- White pepper
- 1. In a 4 quart sauce pan, sweat the onion in 1 ounce of the olive oil until translucent. Season with salt and white pepper. Add the quinoa and stir until well coated. Then add the vegetable stock and bring to simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes on low heart. Then remove from heat. Fluff with a fork and spread on a tray to cool.
- 2. Dice the fennel, cucumber and celery in ¼-inch dice. Thinly slice the scallions. Snip the mint into flaky small pieces (Be careful not to bruise. Sharp scissors work best for this.). When the quinoa is cooled to room temperature, transfer to a large bowl and stir in vegetables and herbs. Add olive oil and fresh squeezed lemon juice. Season to taste.
- 3. Season the shrimp with salt, cayenne and coriander. Drizzle very lightly with olive oil and sear quickly on a grill or grill pan. Just about 90 seconds per side will do. Serve over a bed of the quinoa salad.

Hamas calls on other Gaza militants to stop violent attacks
The militant Hamas rulers of Gaza appealed to other armed Palestinian groups in the territory Tuesday to halt a recent spike in violence, fearing an all-out Israeli invasion in response.
In the latest incident, a missile fired by an Israeli aircraft Tuesday killed an Islamic Jihad militant who was riding a motorcycle in southern Gaza, the Israeli military said. The violent group vowed revenge "at the right time." The military said the militant was planning a major attack on Israel. During the two years since Israel's bruising invasion of Gaza to stop daily rocket attacks, airstrikes aimed at individual militants have been rare.
Hamas spokesman Taher Nunu called on militant Gaza factions to stop firing rockets at Israel and refrain from other attacks on the border as well. He said a cease fire that has been in place for two years serves Palestinian interests and prevents Israeli counterstrikes.
Hamas has made similar appeals for calm in the past few weeks, but rocket fire and Israeli retaliation have continued. The Islamic militant group appears concerned about triggering another large-scale Israeli military campaign similar to a three-week operation two years ago that killed about 1,400 Palestinians — many of them civilians — and caused considerable damage in the impoverished territory.
Hamas has largely kept a cease-fire since the Gaza war. But other militants sporadically fire rockets at Israel, prompting Israeli reprisals, and border clashes still erupt. Israel holds the Hamas rulers responsible for all violence from Gaza, though Hamas claims that smaller splinter groups are behind most of the rocket fire.
Israel routinely retaliates for Palestinian rocket attacks with airstrikes at militant facilities in Gaza and smuggling tunnels under the Egypt-Gaza border.
Violence has increased in recent days.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Hamas to stop the violence. "I think they will make a terrible mistake to test our will to defend our people," he said Tuesday. "I think they will make a terrible, terrible mistake."
At his annual news conference for the foreign press, Mr. Netanyahu charged that Palestinians are avoiding peace talks.
"You want to negotiate peace, sit down and negotiate," he said. "There is no other way to achieve peace."
Mr. Netanyahu, who heads a hawkish government, insisted that his partners would not prevent a peace accord. Also, he said, "I believe that if I bring a peace agreement … I will bring the support of the Israeli public." He added, "I'm the only prime minister who can deliver that. But the Palestinians are walking away from that."
Palestinians have said they will not resume peace talks unless Israel halts construction in West Bank settlements and east Jerusalem, lands the Palestinians claim for a state.
Mr. Netanyahu said that Israel must maintain a presence in the Jordan Valley, the eastern edge of the West Bank. Palestinians oppose that. Netanyahu said that extremists took over south Lebanon and Gaza after Israel withdrew, and "we need to have some safeguards that we don't repeat this a third time."

MILWAUKEE —Having hit for the cycle less than two weeks ago, Aaron Hill had a plan for when he came up with a shot at a second one. Reggie Wayne Jersey . Well, as much as one can plan for the rare batting feat. "You cant think about it," he said. "You look for a ball up and hope things work out." It did. Hill hit for the cycle for the second time in 12 days and Ian Kennedy pitched seven strong innings, leading the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 9-3 victory over the Brewers on Friday night. Hill also singled, doubled, tripled and homered on June 18 against Seattle. Brooklyns Babe Herman is the only other major leaguer to hit for two cycles in one season since 1900, according to STATS LLC. He accomplished the feat in 1931. "A cycle is one of those crazy things and to do it twice in (12) days—thats crazy," Brewers starter Randy Wolf said. Hill doubled for his 1,000th hit in the first, singled in the third and hit his 11th home run of the season, a two-run shot in the fourth. All those hits came off Wolf (2-6). Hill tripled in the sixth inning off Livan Hernandez. His headfirst slide into third easily beat the relay throw from the outfield. Brewers manager Ron Roenicke wasnt surprised by Hills hitting prowess. "He can really hit," Roenicke said. "This is a really good hitter. We made some bad pitches." Brewers catcher George Kottaras appreciated the pressure Hill was under. Last season, Kottaras became the seventh player in franchise history to hit for the cycle, "Hes swinging really well," Kottaras said. "I know its tough to do it once." Hill seemed a bit dumbfounded by, but still happy with his good fortune. "Its great," the Diamondbacks second baseman said. "Obviously, its great to get the win, too. It wouldnt have been as enjoyable if we came away with a loss. It was just a fun game." Paul Goldschmidt came close to hitting for the cycle, too. He doubled, homered, singled and walked before a fan interfered with his hard grounder down the left field line in the ninth. Goldschmidt most likely would not have made third even without the spectators glove deflecting the ball. Kennedy (6-7) allowed a run in the first, but then kept Milwaukee off the board until the sixth when he created his own jam that led to two unearned runs. Rickie Weeks tapped back to the mound and Kennedys wide throw pulled the first baseman off the bag for an error. After he walked Kottaras, Cesar Izturis doubled off the wall in deep right-centre. Kennedy gave up six hits, walked one and struck out seven, including five in a row as he rebounded from his previous start at home against the Chicago Cubs. He went a season low-tying 4 1-3 innings Saturday, allowing five runs and 10 hits. He was also much better this time against the Brewers who beat him 7-1 on May 25 when he allowed four runs on seven hits in 5 2-3 innings. It was his first start at Miller Park since pitching six innings in the decisive Game 5 of the NL division series on Oct. 7. Nyjer Morgans RBI single in the bottom of the 10th inning off J.J. Putz gave Milwaukee a 3-2 victory and the Brewers playoff series win in 29 years. Wolf allowed five runs on five hits in the third. He failed to retire any of the first five batters and that collapse cost him a chance at his first victory since April 30, a span of 11 starts. After the first two hitters reached on hits, Justin Upton and Jason Kubel followed with run-scoring singles. Goldschmidt then cleared the bases with his 11th homer of the season. Hills two-run homer in the fourth came after Willie Bloomquist reached on second baseman Weeks throwing error. Wolf went a season-low tying four innings. He was charged with seven earned runs on nine hits and struck out six. Aramis Ramirezs run-scoring groundout gave Wolf a brief 1-0 lead in the first, but after that it was all Diamondbacks. NOTES: Brewers RHP Shaun Marcum probably wont pitch until after the All-Star game. During a pre-game throwing session, he continued to experience right elbow tightness. The right-hander (5-3, 3.39 ERA) last pitched on June 14 and has missed two starts since. ... Arizona has won two consecutive games away from home after snapping a season-high four-game road skid with Thursdays 3-2 victory over Atlanta. ... Hill became the sixth Diamondback to hit for the cycle. Andrew Luck Shirts . The team was drained after criss-crossing the country for speaking engagements and events in the year after winning gold at the Vancouver Games. Donnie Avery Womens Jersey . Lobendahn spent four seasons with the Blue Bombers but missed the majority of last season with a torn ACL. Over his four-year stint in Winnipeg, he registered 180 tackles, seven sacks, and one interception. http://www.coltsteamstore.com/pat-angerer-jerseys . Ricky Ray threw two touchdowns and Chad Kackert piled up 195 yards of offence as the Argonauts defeated the Calgary Stampeders 35-22 in front of 53,208 fans at home in Toronto. Andrew Luck Blue Jersey . But Jay Haas was brilliant for three rounds instead of one, proving yet again that nobody can dominate the Glen Oaks Country Club like he can. Coby Fleener Youth Jersey . The six-foot-three 216-pound Elliott was scheduled to become a free agent Feb. 16. "Joey is an athletic quarterback with great potential in this league," Bombers general manager Joe Mack said in a statement.Melissa Tancredi scored once in each half to earn Canada a come from behind 2-2 tie with Sweden. The draw is enough to move Canada into the quarter-finals. Canada fell behind after two first-half Swedish goals. In the 84th minute, Canadian forward Christine Sinclair bent a beautiful cross into the box that both Tancredi and substitute Kaylyn Kyle made runs on towards the Swedish goal. Tancredi ended up getting the final touch on the ball to pull Canada even in the contest. In the 43rd minute, as the first half was getting set to expire, Tancredi fired home her first goal of the game to shave Swedens lead in half. Sinclair and defender Rhian Wilkinson combined on a nice passing play before the latter shaped a cross that Tancredi slammed into the net. "It showed the spirit in this team," said Tancredi after the draw. "This team just never gives up, its our Olympic spirit. We gave them a 2-0 lead, but we knew we could do it and had the time." "It was a relief for sure, but give us another five minutes and we would have got the result," said Tancredi about scoring the equalizer. "Im proud of the girls, I saw Christine (Sinclair) making me eye contact and I knew she was going to chip it in for me so I put my body on the line and dived to put my head on it." Canada opened the game with an impressive offensive push that resulted in multiple chances at opening the scoring though they were not able to crack the scoresheet. Pat Angerer Womens Jersey. nbsp; In the sixth minute, Tancredi was able to break in on Swedish keeper Hedvig Lindahl but was not able to cash at the end of the play. Five minutes later with the keeper off her line, Jonelle Foligno chipped the ball towards the empty net but Swedish defender Lina Nilsson cleared the ball before it crossed the line. In the 12th minute Lauren Sesselmann, who has been one of Canadas stand out defenders so far at London 2012, missed converting a set piece into an opening goal. After turning away all three of those quality Canadian scoring chances, Sweden jumped into the lead through a 14th minute goal from Marie Hammarstrom. As the Canadian defence was trying to get set in the box, the Swedish midfielder got on the end of a cross and fired the ball past keeper Erin McLeod who was helpless on the play. Just two minutes later Swedish striker Sofia Jakobsson slid the ball home on the back post to double Swedens advantage. Canadas defence was able to hold the attack from that point, not conceeding another goal. "We started well and we had a 2-0 lead, but they came back," said Jakobsson. "Canada played well to come back. We kept fighting, so were happy." By virtue of South Africas draw with Japan, Sweden will finish first in Group F while Canada will claim the third spot and one of the final two advancement places into the quarter-finals. ' ' '

The Hurricane
Description: In June 1966, Rubin "Hurricane" Carter was a strong contender for the middleweight boxing title. When three people were murdered in a New Jersey bar, Carter's dreams were destroyed. Driving home from a nearby club, Carter was erroneously arrested for the murders and sentenced to serve three life terms in prison. Several years later, Carter's published memoir, The 16th Round, inspired a Brooklyn teenager and three Canadian activists, who believed in the truth, to join forces with Carter to prove his innocence. Their extraordinary efforts, commitment and love ultimately secured his release, leaving "Hurricane" to sum up his 20 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit by simply stating, "Hate got me into this place, love got me out."

Is There Life For Your BlackBerry After Water?
This week on the CNET website, Ina Fried wrote her story of her ordeal as she dropped her beloved BlackBerry in the commode. She expressed the panic we all feel. And like any good sleuth even googled for information. She also inquired of her carrier as to how often it happens, and also brought up about how phones have a liquid damage indicator which if red, will void the chance of a warranty replacement.
Of course in the event your phone does find itself immersed, the best thing to do is removed the battery as quickly as you can. Dry the phone off as well and the battery. Taking the phone there are various ways as to how to dry it out. Some advise wrapping the phone in paper towels, in silica gel packs, or even uncooked rice (typically this is suggested for 48 hours, not turning the phone on at all during that time). Whatever you do, leave the phone be for a day or two. Of course she had to test here and there and eventually her phone did dry out and it was soon typing normal once again.
What I loved most about the article was that Ina writes about her missing her emails, having to keep entertained with her iPod, and missing her phone. She also tried checking the phone throughout the drying process. That is one thing I would advise against. There is a chance the phone will short circuit which would not be good. Now if the phone is wet, this is a voided warranty. I also liked how she was so happy that her phone began to work again, and sharing her joy. This is equivelent to Dr. Frankenstein bringing life to his creation, "It's Alive!!!!"
When the phone incurs liquid damage, it becomes an insurance claim and I am hoping that you would have your beloved insured. An insurance claim to process doesn't take long to receive a phone and may even be in your hands before the drying handset is totally functional. Now here's the most important thing to remember: the disk that comes with your phone when you purchase it….that disk is very important. The reason for that disk is to install the BlackBerry Desktop Manager so you are able to back up your files and information and to sync your BlackBerry to your pc. Don't wait till the phone is wet to think about saving your information. If your phone short circuits and meets it's untimely demise, at this point it's too late to ask your wireless consultant or representative if they can transfer contacts. So please, if you haven't already, install that disk and back up your phone, sync it, do those little things on a weekly or every other day basis so you're prepared for an event such as this. Preparing for the end is highly recommended because trust me, you're going to feel it's the end of the world when you are without your BlackBerry for even a few hours, let alone days. Transferring your back up information to a new phone will be as easy as plugging it in to your pc and putting the back up file back onto your BlackBerry.
Have you ever dropped your BlackBerry in water? Did you try it out and did it work again? What method did you use? Please let us know and share your comments.

Girls Gymnastics: A historic day for Lincoln-Way's Pohrte
By Jeff Vorva For Sun-Times Media January 26, 2013 10:32PM
high school
Article Extras
Updated: March 28, 2013 2:19AM
Lincoln-Way's co-op team was expected to win its fourth straight SouthWest Suburban Conference Saturday and it didn't disappoint.
Andrew senior Jamie Valla was hoping to win her fourth straight all-around conference title but multiple problems to her right leg limited her to the uneven bars event, which she won, and that opened some doors for other conference stars to shine at Homewood-Flossmor.
It allowed Lincoln-Way sophomore Kaila Pohrte to make history.
Pohrte, who rang up a 35.200 is the first SWSC girls gymnastics all-around champion in Lincoln-Way history.
"I never had one since this conference started and I may never have had a conference all-around champion," veteran Lincoln-Way coach Skip Adamson said. "There have been a series of girls from other teams who have been very good. It's been awhile or it's never happened, so it's a major accomplishment for Kaila."
Pohrte won the vault, took second on the balance beam and took third in the uneven bars and floor exercise.
She said she heard about Valla's injury but wasn't thinking about winning the individual title.
"I was pretty much worried about my own routines and all of that," Pohrte said. "If it (a championship) worked out, then it worked out. I'm really happy with the way my routines went so it paid off."
Homewood-Flossmoor's Aleigha Williams took second all-around with a 34.825 and won the floor exercise. Sandburg's Anna Girlich was third with a 34.450 and Lockport's Kacie Kenney, who won the balance beam event, took fourth with a 33.050.
Valla hurt her soleus tendon recently and also has a bone spur and cyst in her right leg. She received a cortisone shot on Wednesday and was advised to rest it until Tuesday's regional competition but opted to make at least one appearance in her final conference meet.
When she landed to finish her beam routine, she grimace in pain while trying to smile for the judges and was tended to by trainers for 15 minutes.
"I accepted that the landing was going to hurt," she said. 'I tried to put more pressure on one leg over the other. Today was a good test. It was tough because I wanted to win conference all four years but it's all right. I liked watching the other girls do so well."
Lincoln-Way scored 133.475 points to win its fourth straight title followed by the Sandburg-Stagg Co-op team (128.125), Homewood-Flossmoor (127.075), Andrew (122.650) and two individuals from Lockport (61.700).

Stand With Assemblymember Linda B. Rosenthal to Help End Puppy Mills!
Thanks to A.740-A/S.3753-A, municipalities like New York City will be able to enact ordinances banning the retail sale of pet shop puppies, kittens, and rabbits and requiring stores to offer only shelter or rescue animals for adoption. CAPS' New York director is already working with legislators in Suffolk, Nassau, and Westchester counties to draft ordinances.
CAPS, along with other animal advocate groups, worked hard to get this bill through the NYS legislature. Local communities demanded the ability to regulate pet dealers in their backyards and A.740-A/S.3753-A is the answer. Assemblymember Linda B. Rosenthal and Senator Mark Grisanti demonstrated their commitment to animal welfare by making this landmark bill possible.

The Supreme Court recently struck down a key part of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) that defined marriage under federal law as "only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife." Thanks to the Court's ruling, legally married same-sex couples will now be eligible for all of the federal benefits and protections that every other married couple enjoys. Yet the Court did NOT rule on another part of DOMA that says that states are not required to recognize same sex marriages from other states, even though they are required to recognize heterosexual marriages from other states.
The rights of legally married same-sex couples who reside outside one of the 13 states that recognize their marriages remain unclear. This is why Representative Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) have reintroduced the Respect for Marriage Act (H.R. 2523/ S. 1236).
The Respect for Marriage Act would entirely repeal DOMA, providing married same-sex couples with the full range of federal benefits and protections that the law already provides to married opposite-sex couples regardless of where they live. This provides critically important certainty for families, allowing couples to plan for a future of mutual obligation and support with confidence that their access to federal responsibilities and rights will not be taken away by a move to another state. At the same time, nothing in the Act obligates any person or religious organization to celebrate or license a marriage between two persons of the same sex.
Jewish Values
Judaism teaches that all human beings are created b'tselem elohim – in the Divine image. Genesis 1:27 tells us that "God created humans in God's own image, in the image of God, God created them: male and female, God created them." The belief that the stamp of the divine is present in all humans is fundamental to Reform Judaism; we cannot tolerate discrimination against any person for any reason. In reflection of this belief, the Movement is committed to ensuring the civil marriage rights of gay and lesbian couples.
Take Action
It's time to end institutionalized discrimination based on sexual orientation in this country. Ask your Members of Congress to cosponsor and support the Respect for Marriage Act (H.R. 2523/S. 1236). You can send an e-mail by entering your Zip Code below. To call your Members of Congress, the Capital Switchboard can be reached at 202.224.3121.

Kaufman hands Ferris first district loss in basketball
The Ellis County Press
FERRIS - It took Kaufman until 2:50 left in the first period to get on the scoreboard and that one point came on a free throw shot. Although Kaufman played a running game, their shooting was inaccurate at best especially with the focused defense of the Yellow Jackets.
Ferris showed both a strong offense and defense in the first two periods of play leading 27-13 at half-time.
As seen in several previous games, Ferris' strong first half of play does not always roll over to the second half of the game.
This was the case Friday when Ferris only scored 12 points to Kaufman's 20 in the third period.
The Yellow Jackets repeatedly missed easy lay-ups and free throw shots and held only a narrow lead of 39-33 at the end of the third period.
Kaufman came alive in the fourth period making easy shots that helped them creep up the scoreboard and tie Ferris at 39 all with Kaufman going to the free throw line with 6:11 left in the game. Making one of two free throw attempts, Kaufman then took a one point lead.
A three-pointer by Casey Lemon with 4:55 left put Ferris up 42-40. After Kaufman tied the game again on free throws, Jeremy Masterson's free throw regained the lead for Ferris 43-42 with 3:43 left on the clock.
Kaufman and Ferris would then battle back and forth with two point shots until Kaufman took a 48-45 lead with 1:31 left.
With both sides scrapping for the ball, Coach Rogers called a time out with 39.4 seconds to give his boys a chance to catch their breath and regroup.
Paul Alexander would go to the free throw line with 18.3 seconds left to tie the game at 48 a piece.
Kaufman would then fight their way to three more points off of free throws to hand the Yellow Jackets their first district loss 51-48.
In a post-game interview, Ferris Head Coach Buck Rogers explained that his team's loss boiled down to missed lay-ups and free throws.
"We needed to make lay-ups and free throws and we didn't. We had a job to do and we didn't get it done."
When asked what the next step would be, Coach Rogers stated, "We have Crandall next and then Venus and Alvarado. We have to be ready for them."

The Hunter
A mercenary, Martin David (Willem Dafoe), is dispatched by a biotech company to the Tasmanian wilderness to retrieve a DNA sample from the thought-to-be extinct Tasmanian Tiger; apparently the animal is possessing of a toxin which the corporation seeks to weaponize. Walking a thin line between local redneck miners and tree huggin' greenies, David surreptitiously lays traps for the rumoured, elusive beast while he shacks up with widowed mother, Lucy (Frances O'Connor).
The Hunter has many things going for it but credibility of plot is not one of them. Why on earth a multinational corporation, which clearly has some clout, would pour resources into tracking down an animal that by most accounts is extinct rather than source a tissue sample from a museum is not made clear. Perhaps the novel by Julia Leigh (the writer and director of the recent Sleeping Beauty), on which the film is based, exposed the reasoning behind this. There is also a turn of events towards the end of the film which defies all apparent logic but to mention it here would be too big a spoiler.
Plot flaws aside, however, the film is very competently produced and it is to director Daniel Nettheim's credit that the narrative cracks are papered over reasonably effectively as the film plays out to its remarkably brave conclusion.
The performances are roundly excellent and the slow burn nature of this psychological thriller puts it on par with the likes of Deliverance. Its application of themes of extinct Thylacines and murder in the Tasmanian wilderness invites frightful parallels to the gratuitous Aussie horror, Dying Breed, which is a little disconcerting while watching the film, but rest assured that no cannibals turn up here. And of course, the Tassie wilderness is, naturally, absolutely stunning.

Members of HTI's Board of Directors visited our students in
April for the first of a series of "Talk Story" sessions focused on "Habits of
Mind". The intention of these sessions is to ultimately create a more "mindful"
learning environment which will permeate all activities that are integral to
HTI's programs – on and off campus.
Board Chairman, Rodney Moriyama, initiated the effort,
having valid reason for concern with recent Hawai`i DOE high school statistics with
5,500 drop-outs. As a former DOE Assistant
Superintendent, Rodney came out of retirement and expanded his volunteer efforts
for causes that will help to educate students with an up-close understanding of
the seriousness of Hawai`i's educational plight and the "need to do something
different to get different results."
In his ventures since then, Rod has had many opportunities
to contribute to helping Hawai`i's learners to more easily relate to
standardized content in the context of real-life learning opportunities – all
while developing and maintaining their own personal health and well-being. Though "Habits of Mind" mentality was borne
several years ago, it is only making its way to Hawaii's educational landscape
in a bigger way now and the benefits will only be positive.
The "Habits," when used with intent, provide an internal
compass that guides decision-making as problems require solving, as people
respond to conflicts and tensions in their environments, as they encounter
problems and the myriad life situations that require thinking and habits of
mind that support wise decisions. Habits
of Mind workshops will be a staple at HTI as we continue to find ways to help
our students with critical and creative thinking skills necessary for personal
and professional success.
For more information on Habits of Mind, check the Institute
for Habits of Mind at www.instituteforhabitsofmind.com

Any time management suggestions?

Hello. I'm 69 this year, guardian of grandchildren (This is my third set of children to raise.), so I have very little time to myself and low to mediuim organization skills. My week day goes something like this. Getting two of the children off to school 7-8:50 am; return from bus stop and the other two watch cartoons while I do some HH chores and tend to business matters usually taking 1.5 hrs. Then we go outside for 1+ hrs: they play while I do yard work or we might go to the park. Then we go inside, have lunch, catch school bus for PM classes. I return home, have my lunch (usually my first meal of the day, so I'm already tired), do HH chores and/or take a nap, meet sch bus, bring all children home for their snack and relax time until 4:30. go outside, keep appts, run errands, etc; 6 ish, I start dinner, eat dinner, help w/sch work and learning skills, then have a family game time before brushing teeth and getting ready for bed; now 9pm. I'm on computer in adjoining room until they fall asleep. Then in kitchen; with hubby; wrapping up HH chore's loose ends, then go to bed about 11pm. Result: These energetic little people keep me scatter-brained enough, that I seldom eat when I should, forget my vitamins, and am so tired I often have to take a nap while they're in school. This usually causes something left undone, so I have to double up the next day. I have a planner and notebooks not always with me when I need them. I requested white and cork boards be put up in the busy hub of the home. I have them, but they were put up where someone else said they would best be utilized. Since they are not in direct view they are useless as reminders on hectic mornings to jog my old memory. So I start the day with stress.
I want to regain my health through morning breathing exercises and every other day some toning exercises. Then walk in the afternoon. I need to eat breakfast, but that usually doesn't happen until lunch. Hubby excels each evening in working with the children; I am the helper. Any suggestions?
|Mon, 04-29-2013 - 10:39am

[September 12, 2007] -- On the eve of a jury trial scheduled to begin in U.S. District Court in Boston, ImClone Systems Incorporated (ImClone) agreed to settle a major patent infringement case with Fish & Richardson clients, Repligen Corporation and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The case involved the manufacture of the highly publicized cancer drug, ERBITUX. The settlement culminates several years of litigation by a Fish & Richardson trial team consisting of Juanita Brooks, Gregory Madera, Jonathan Singer, Michael Kane and John Adkisson, with assistance from attorneys from across the firm.
Long-time Fish & Richardson client Repligen, the exclusive licensee of an MIT patent that includes a Nobel Laureate as an inventor, brought the case to the firm mere weeks before the patent was set to expire. Nonetheless, employing ground-breaking legal theories regarding the "stockpiling" of drugs before FDA approval, Fish attorneys secured the settlement for their clients after three years of hard-fought litigation. Indeed, at one point in the case, attorneys for ImClone were sanctioned by the Court for witness intimidation.
Other highlights of the litigation include Fish's mastering of complex recombinant protein production technology, as well as Fish's use of the FDA patent term extension process to advance their clients' case. The case also demonstrated the depth of the law firm's pharmaceutical practice, with different attorneys handling the summary judgment hearing, the Markman hearing, and the sanctions hearing against ImClone's former counsel.
