Inchcape Shipping Services adds round-the-clock service
Posted onIn response to the increasingly complex and specific needs of superyacht owners, Inchcape Shipping Services launched round-the-clock service operating from Fort Lauderdale and a new app designed to make shipping scheduling easier.
The new ISS Yachting Services specializes in the handling of all yachts, but in particular larger classes of vessels. Because of their size, they are unable to call at local marinas and require personalized assistance in getting alongside and cleared.
ISS GMT (Global Marine Travel), a division of ISS, also launched a new mobile app for its yacht clients that is now available via iTunes and the Play Store. Designed to help yacht clients manage travel schedules for themselves, crews and charter guests, to and from vessels, the app features a flight quotes system, live chat with an agent, access to existing reservation details and a range of relevant live news feeds.
"With yachts getting ever larger in size, the need for a commercial port agent is becoming essential in order to ensure local rules and regulations are followed and that costs are being kept under control," ISS North America senior vice president Ian Whelan said in a statement. "ISS is well placed to handle these calls, not just in the private marinas, but also within commercial ports, ensuring entrance, clearance and immigration formalities are properly followed."
Also included through the app are traditional port agency services and concierge services such as provision of limousines, domestic staff and excursions.
"The new ISS GMT app is a further example of how we can make our yacht clients' lives easier," ISS GMT Tim Davey said in a statement. "Given an increasing reliance on tablets and mobile devices, this new way of accessing our services provides added convenience."
ISS Yachting Services has a dedicated contact phone number (954-302-6827) and email (firstname.lastname@example.com) that are monitored around the clock.

My fig trees (a Kadota & a Brown Turkey) have many fruits starting. I've been watering deeply & hope to have an edible crop this year (juicy, not dry). The initial crop (breba?) of Kadota basically went to the starlings. I've placed netting over some branches of the Brown Turkey, but the trees are just too tall and broad to cover all branches. Does anyone have practical suggestions to discourage the birds from eating the ripe fruit outside the nets? My thanks for any help. Zill |

Hi, I had the same problem 2 years ago and tried hanging lots of pieces of flash tape sold at Armstrong Garden Centers. It is red on one site and silver on the other. The reflection of sunlight and crinkling or rustling sound in the wind did scare the birds off better than anything. |

Anybody have any advice on dryers with steam features? I have to replace our whole house, and the dryer I had (and loved) is no longer made. It was a Maytag with a steam compartment above the regular dryer which could be used either for freshening and steaming dry clothes or drying delicates that couldn't be put in a normal dryer. Anybody have a dryer that they really love? I'm currently looking at the "professional" Miele washing machine, but am not set on it, and I don't care one bit whether my washer and dryer match - I use them, don't particularly look at them. I want the most effective laundry room possible, not necessarily the prettiest.... don't intend to entertain guests there or anything. So any dryer that is really good will work. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Sansung and LG has steam, but they are not reliable. I highly reccomend the european models. Miele makes great washers and dryers |
I bought a Maytag Bravos topload washer and steam dryer several years ago. I regret the extra money I spent to get the TOL dryer, I've only used the steam feature twice. I use the water heater feature on the washer all the time, getting the TOL washer was a good decision. I dry most clothing for 2-3 minutes on low heat, then hang items on a nearby rack to air dry. No ironing ever and saves energy, too. |
My Electrolux has steam. I use it frequently to unwrinkle. Works very well, I love it. Jane |
I have an Electrolux with steam, too, and I also use it to unwrinkle and freshen things. Like Jane NY, I love it. In addition, it cools the load after drying, to minimize wrinkles. You can also set it to keep tumbling on air fluff for up to 3 hours, so that you can get to it when it's convenient and not have the load get all wrinkled. I love that about this machine. Cj |

Chomping jaws, razor sharp bugoid legs and alien flick missiles make the Crater Creeper a difficult enemy; attack from the rear if possible!
Beware the cocoon prison on these Alien Abductoids! With nearly a nearly impenetrable exoskeleton, once you're inside it's hard to get out again!
Partner up with another Galaxy Squad Team, you're going to need all the help you can get for the Hive Crawler! With double-rotating venom guns, sharp pincers and deadly insectoid larvae, this Bug Mother is hard to beat!
One of the fastest enemies you'll meet, the Creepy Caterpillar's jointed body moves lightning quick across alien terrain, and with pinching jaws and venom stingers, keep a safe distance when attacking!
The most dangerous thing about the Space Swarmer is the grabber mouth. And yes, it's just as bad as it sounds. So unless you want to end up as delicacy on the bugs' dinner menu, run away!
This little green alien speedbike is fast and really, really annoying. Unless you're a Mosquitoid, in which case it's obviously perfect for pestering.
Watch out for the sticky cocoon trap! The Warp Stinger's flapping wings hit you hard if you get in the way, and don't even get us started on the shooters…
The missiles and cocoon trap make the Alien Scorpion a pretty toxic enemy, despite its small size. It's also very easy to parallel park just about anywhere in the galaxy.
The Alien Dragonfly might look like a harmless little fly with a big… behind. It's actually pretty fast, and you can't argue with a cocoon trap. Agile and fast, you need a big swatter to squash this fly…

However, there are problems with the specifics as well. e.g Rick does not even indicate what quotes he believers are accurate and correct, that he will stand by and defend as true. In my experience, Rick will defend putting in quotes that he even knows are factually wrong, since they are not his own words.
So there really is no position to "debate".
e.g. In post #30 I asked him a simple question about two quotes he daisy-chained. And there was no response at all, even though my question is clearly very logical and, if unanswered, indicates that Rick does not even understand his own quotes.
Yours in Jesus,

We are in the process of developing a contract for remodeling 3 bathrooms plus flooring throughout most of the house. I have looked at sample documents online and most do not include some of the limits that our contractor has put into his contract. His contract provides a lot of protection for him, but I am not sure if it provides enough protection for us. Are these reasonable clauses to include? Should we ask for any changes before we sign? I am including just those sections about which we have questions: Most of the obligations spelled out for the builder and owner seem appropriate. He will provide general liability insurance and worker's compensation insurance and we will provide Builder's Risk Insurance. Most of our questions have to do with his warranties, wavers and limitations, so I will copy those sections as written. He says he warrants workmanship for one year, but he expressly disclaims the warranties of good workmanship, habitability, fitness of purpose and merchantability. What constitutes good workmanship? What would be covered and what would not be covered? Some of his limitations make sense, but we are concerned about the statement that any damages shall not exceed the price of the project. What if he or his subcontractor accidently does serious damage to the house that costs more than the planned project? Also, his statement forecloses any and all tort claims. Does this mean that we have no recourse if something really bad happens? We are not litigious people, but we do not want to get stuck with an unforeseen problem that cannot be specified in advance. Is there anything in the two sections below that looks unreasonable or unfair to either party? Warranty. Builder warrants its workmanship for one year after the date of substantial completion and, on written notice from Owner to Builder delivered within seven days after such defect arises, will repair any substantial defect arising during such period without any labor charge to Owner. Warranties do not cover materials or labor supplied by Owner, defects arising due to existing or Owner-created conditions. The warranties given hereunder shall have no force and effect until the Builder has received full payment of the Price, as adjusted, and all warranties shall date from the time of such payment. Builder shall assign any third-party warranties after Builder's warranty expires. Waivers and Limitations. Builder and Owner agree to waive all claims against each other for any consequential damages that might arise out of or relate to this Agreement and the project. Owner agrees to waive damages including but not limited to Owner's loss of use of the project, any rental expenses incurred, loss of income, profit or financing, as well as the loss of business, or loss of reputation. Builder agrees to waive damages including but not limited to loss of business, loss of financing, loss of profits, principal office overhead and expenses, loss of bonding capacity, or loss of reputation. The provisions of this Section shall also apply to the termination of this Agreement and shall survive such termination. |
Follow-Up Postings:
You are going to spend a lot of money on 3 baths, and flooring. You need a lawyer to review / draft the contract. IMO it's worth $300 - $500. Also I would add milestones with solid completion dates and penalty's for everyday they are late. You can always extend the completion date if material is late. With completion dates - your job has priority! |
"You need a lawyer to review / draft the contract. IMO it's worth $300 - $500. " With a decent chance the bid will be increased by the builders legal costs 9cntract5 review) and some more to support a warranty, They are not free. Money often needs to be set aside so that the issuer can fulfill warranty claims. You can try and shift risk to another party, but expect to pay for that 'privilege.' |

A year is common and some states require a certain warranty period. In AIA contracts the term "warranty" is not used. Instead, the period of time that the contractor is responsible for the work meeting the contract documents is extended to a year. |
Just try to collect from an LLC that was dissolved 6 months ago. |

Jython: Java-Based Python Interpreter Hits Version 2.2
The Jython project has released version 2.2 of its Java-based interpreter for the Python scripting language.
The first stable release of Jython for six years implements version 2.2 of the Python language. The release also includes new features from the Jython developer version 2.1 including new style classes, new import hooks (based on PEP 302), and the integration of Java lists. Other new features include iterators, generators and SSL support. For a comprehensive list of changes and bugfixes, see the changelog.
Jython is an implementation of the Python language that was written completely in Java, whereas the traditional Python interpreter is a C program. Jython compiles Python classes to build Java byte code which can be run on a Java Virtual Machine. Jython thus builds a bridge between the two languages: Python applications can use Java's class libraries, and Java applications can use Python scripting.
The reworked Jython installer is available for downloading as a typical Java Jar archive; the source code is available from the project's CVS.

Back in '96 the sound of DJ Pascal Morais was as fresh as squeaking sneakers on the bathroom floor. In his former hometown, Hoorn, where it all started his mixtapes were pumping out of car speakers everywhere. One of Hollands hottest dancehall DJs, and Pascal Morais hooked up and together they produced several tracks. In return this DJ introduced him to clubs such as: Bubbles in lelystad, Marcanti Plaza in Amsterdam and Acneton in The Hague, followed by Margerithas, The Industry and Timeless. His music style gradually evolved into a different sound.
After a turbulent time at the end of the millennium with the closure of some clubs, Pascal Morais decided to focus on mix-cds. He was known for his ability to mix Hip Hop with Dance and Ballads with dancehall and made numerous mashups, played by other DJ's. In the year 2G he decided to focus on the DJ generation for 2020 and had a baby son. He stepped out for a while because soon his babyboy started to damage his DJ Equipment. One day he even found a peanutbutter sandwhich in his Pioneer CD players.
After his diaper sabattical Pascal Morais teamed up with several other DJ's, spinning the hottest soulful, Deep and Afrobeat tunes around Amsterdam and Rotterdam. Besides DJ-ing, Pascal Morais is producing his own music as well and is working together with numerous national and international artists from Canada to South Africa. Lately he started to run his own label Arrecha Records, which is quite successful because of the strong tunes and remixes it offers by different artists from all around the globe.

Robust Control System Networks:How to Achieve Reliable Control After Stuxnet
"This is the first great, 5-star ICS security book." Dale Peterson, Digital Bond
"Read Robust Control System Networks — it's brief, concise, well-written, full of compelling anecdotes, and groundbreaking" Richard Bejtlich, TaoSecurity
He was the researcher who was one of the first to identify and analyze the infamous industrial control system malware "Stuxnet," and has now written a book that takes a new, radical approach to making Industrial control systems safe from such cyber attacks: design the controls systems themselves to be "robust."
Other security experts advocate risk management, implementing more firewalls and carefully managing passwords and access. Not so this book: those measures, while necessary, can still be circumvented. Instead, this book shows in clear, concise detail how a system that has been set up with an eye toward quality design in the first place is much more likely to remain secure and less vulnerable to hacking, sabotage or malicious control.
It blends several well-established concepts and methods from control theory, systems theory, cybernetics and quality engineering to create the ideal protected system. The book's maxim is taken from the famous quality engineer William Edwards Deming, "If I had to reduce my message to management to just a few words, I'd say it all has to do with reducing variation." Highlights include: - An overview of the problem of "cyber fragility" in industrial control systems - How to make an industrial control system "robust," including principal design objectives and overall strategic planning - Why using the methods of quality engineering like the Taguchi method, SOP and UML will help to design more "armored" industrial control systems.

Wire - Change Becomes Us
Format: CD
Label: Pink Flag Notify Me ( ? )
"In spring 2012, Wire's plan had been to review the rudimentary blueprints of songs that had never made it beyond a few live performances in 1979 and 1980 - a time when the band-members were in creative overdrive yet the band itself was disintegrating. The aim wasn't simply to resuscitate and record old songs; in fact, many of them hadn't become proper songs in the first place, existing only as basic ideas or undeveloped parts. Rather, the objective was to approach that unrealized work as an oblique strategy, a potential springboard for Wire's contemporary, forward-looking processes - a possible point of departure for new compositions."

Has been a big help
Posted by Unknown on 14th Jul 2013
This has really helped my father as he no longer has issues getting up from his favourite seat.
Shipping was very fast (and free) which was also great.
thanks -
Very helpful

We purchased this for my mother who has a hard time getting up from the kitchen table on occasion.
She absolutely loves it and now does not require our help (which she is proud of).
It is built very well and are satisfied overall with the purchase. We will recommend. -

Ubisoft will be releasing single-player downloadable content for Assassin's Creed: Revelations centred on the first-person block puzzles and platforming featured in the game.
That's according to a number of new achievements posted on Xbox 360 Achievements.
Elsewhere, GAME briefly listed an 'Ottoman Edition' for Revelations before removing it from the website. The special edition's cover (pictured) mentions ""free downloadable content", further suggesting the imminent release of new DLC.
Another retailer, AWX, mentions a March 16 release date for the new package.
Last month Ubisoft released the Mediterranean Traveller map pack for Assassin's Creed Revelations, featuring a mixture of fresh and fan favourite Brotherhood maps.

[1975] Establishing Quantitative Parameters in the Detection of Somatic Mutations of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Gene in Cytology Samples of Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinomas
Elisa Brega, George Chong, Victor Cohen, Jason Agulnik, Goulnar Kasymjanova, Max Palayew, Bin Xu, David Small, Gerald Batist, Alan Spatz, Guilherme Brandao. Jewish General Hospital/McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada
Background: 30-40% Asian and 10-15% Caucasians diagnosed with Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma have mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor gene (EGFR). Two mutations, a short in-frame deletion in exon 19, and a point mutation in exon 21 account for 90% of EGFR mutations. Several NSCLC are diagnosed using only cytology, resulting in limited tumoral availability. This study goal is to establish minimal quantitative parameters in cytology for the detection of EGFR mutations.
Design: We prospectively analyzed 92 consecutive cases of non-small cell/non-squamous carcinoma (NSC/NSq) based on cytology and immunohistochemical profile. Exon 19 deletions and point mutation in exon 21 were tested using high resolution melting analysis and DNA sequencing. The samples include specimens from BAL/brush, effusions and trans-bronchial/thoracic/esophageal needle aspirations fixed in formalin 10%, centrifuged and aggregated with Histogel®, then classified as Q1 (<50 tumor cells/slide), Q2 (50-100 tumor cells/slide) and Q3 (>100 tumor cells/slide). DNA was extracted from 10x5µm-thick sections.
Results: Out of 92 NSC/NSq cases, 12 cases (13,04%) were positive for EGFR mutation (5 in exon 21, 7 in exon 19). Two cases had insufficient DNA for analysis, while in all others 78 cases no mutations were found. Among exon 19 positive cases, all but one were classified as Q3 (85.7%). One case positive for exon 19 was classified as Q1. Among exon 21 positive cases, 4 cases were classified as Q3 (80%), and only one as Q2 (20%). Among wild-type cases, 25 were classified as Q1 (27,1%), 14 as Q2 (15.2%) and 39 as Q3 (42,3%).
Conclusions: Only 1 out of 26 cases (3.84%) classified as Q1, and 1 out of 15 cases (6,66%) classified as Q2 had EGFR mutation detected. 49 cases were classified as Q3 (53.2% of cases). In this cohort, EGFR mutation was detected in 20.4% of cases. Our study suggests that despite being possible to detect EGFR mutations, less than 100 cells/slide appears to limit detection. Additional studies comparing detection in low cellular cytology samples with resected specimens could help establish minimal quantitative guidelines for optmization of EGFR mutation testing in cytology.

Sure would like to frame out the plain looking metal windows in my DW.
Maybe some nice 1 x 4's ?

Better to use actual trim, not plain 1x4s. The two basic types are ranch and colonial. You can get them as real wood, pre stained or painted or unfinished. You can get them as fake wood, a very light resin that is cheap but fragile to work with. Only available pre finished or painted. |

Canyon Midstream Partners LLC, Houston, has signed gathering and processing agreements with ExxonMobil Corp. subsidiary XTO Energy Inc. and Apache Corp. for midstream services on Canyon's James Lake system in the Permian basin (OGJ, June 2, 2014, p. 72).
In addition, Canyon has expanded its James Lake cryogenic gas processing plant in Ector County, Tex., to 100 MMcfd from 70 MMcfd by adding a 30-MMcfd cryogenic turbo expansion train.
The plant is part of Canyon's James Lake system, which currently consists of 60 miles of 12-in. trunkline and six field compressor stations providing low-pressure gathering to Ector, Andrews, Martin, Dawson, and Gaines counties in Texas. When completed later this year, the system will deliver residue gas into the El Paso Natural Gas pipeline and deliver NGLs to the Sand Hills pipeline (OGJ Online, Oct. 25, 2012) and the Chaparral pipeline in Ector County.
Canyon is also developing Phase 2 of the James Lake system, which will consist of a second 100-MMcfd cryogenic gas plant in Martin County and 60 additional miles of 12-in. trunkline, which will expand the system's service territory into Howard and Borden counties.
Canyon expects Phase 2 to begin operations in first-half 2015.
Canyon was formed in June 2012 by former senior management of Delphi Midstream Partners LLC and Laser Northeast Gathering Co. LLC.

geographical nameIsland, Yemen, in the Indian Ocean. Located about 210 mi (340 km) southeast of the Arabian Peninsula, it has an area of about 1,400 sq mi (3,600 sq km). Its interior is mountainous, with flora that includes myrrh, frankincense, and the dragon's blood tree. The island, mentioned in various legends, was long ruled by the Mahra sultans of southeastern Yemen, except for a brief Portuguese occupation (1507–11). In 1886 it came under British control and in 1967 became part of independent Yemen. Its chief town is Hadiboh.

We entered a drawing at our local appliance shop when we purchased our gas range.
We got a call yesterday that we had won a Miele vacuum cleaner. When I picked it up, the salesman said it was worth about $500. I went home and googled it and found that they actually retail for $850! We also got a year's worth of bags in the deal. Our 5 year old Kenmore has issues and needs repair or replacement (again!). Needless to say, we were delighted. Now comes the rub - Uprights are really best on carpet. We have hardwood throughout the house with just a couple of area rugs. We'd be much better served with a canister. I'm thinking of eBaying the S7 and purchasing a Miele canister (likely the Callisto) with the cash. Does this make sense or is the Titan good for hardwood floors as well? Please help us decide. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Make that: is the Tango good for hardwood floors too? |
I don't have any experience with either vacuum, but found some good info on the Tango at the link below...so you 'may' want to keep it. Congratulations on being a winner! Sue |
Here is a link that might be useful: s7 Tango info
Hey thanks. I almost feel like running out and buying a lottery ticket. We're definitely leaning toward selling it and buying a Miele canister. |
- Posted by livebetter (My Page) on Thu, Dec 9, 10 at 23:18
I own the S7 Marin (Swing in the US). Love it for broadloom and various jobs using the wand. My main floor is all hardwood and area carpets. While I have used the S7 on the carpets, if I didn't have broadloom upstairs I would absolutely get a canister (I probably will get one too someday). I have used it twice to vacuum hard surface (ie. hardwood, tile) and didn't love it. I use my central vac for those jobs still (although I hate lugging my 35' hose around). Congrats but I say sell it and get a canister. I'd go for an S5 model over the Titan. |
The Miele upright would do okay on floors, as well as carpeting. But you have to ask yourself, "Do I really want to push this heavy machine across the floor, when I could have a canister and push a very lightweight wand, with floor brush?" Pushing that floor brush across the floor is so easy to do. It can get inbetween furniture and under some furniture without difficulty. If you have some carpeting, then I would add a power nozzle to the canister. An upright, with onboard tools, is better suited if you have quite a bit of carpeting to vacuum, with some floors and above the floor cleaning added. |
- Posted by westvillager (My Page) on Thu, Dec 16, 10 at 16:34
Ugh, the S7 was just too heavy and difficult to get into corners (even under some furniture). Unless it's wall-to-wall carpet, in which case it's a great machine, I'd sell it and get a canister. I haven't looked back since! |
- Posted by typist1vz(firstname.lastname@example.com) onSun, Feb 27, 11 at 22:28
All I can say is if you want to get rid of it, I'll take it. Are you selling it for a good price? Let me know. Personally, from what I have seen on this vacuum it is good for any type of surface floor. Excellent vacuum. |
Thanks anyway. We already sold it and bought a Miele S5 canister. Also an excllent machine. |

The Pain and the Itch
The first play to be directed by Dominic Cooke in his new role as artistic director of the Royal Court is an excellent choice: Bruce Norris's social satire about a liberal American family is both a fiendishly clever story and a dangerously taboo-scratching account of intimate relationships. For Thanksgiving dinner, a married middle-class couple, Clay and Kelly, invite his brother, Cash, and the brothers' mother, Carol. Cash also brings his new girlfriend, a Eurotrash youngster called Kalina, and at first things go well. Then, as Clay and Kelly's daughter Kayla develops a mysterious itch and a rodent problem is discovered, a black farce explodes onto the stage. Norris's play, which was first staged at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre in 2005, has considerable satirical bite and is immensely satisfying in terms of its structure. What begins as a joke on liberal values, and the guilt involved in having material wealth, soon morphs into a dark tale of sexual and moral depravity. But, despite a fine set by Robert Innes Hopkins, Cooke's production feels oddly lacklustre, and his cast only occasionally reach the comic heights that the piece demands. As Clay, Matthew Macfadyen is best when he lets rip, and exposes the wild beast beneath the moderate exterior. By contrast, Sara Stewart's Kelly, Peter Sullivan's Cash and Amanda Boxer's Carol all seem rather too restrained. The real scene-stealers are Andrea Riseborough's vivid, high-energy performance as Kalina and Shannon Kelly's delightful debut as the infant Kayla. So although the production only comes alive in fitful spurts, there is enough disturbing content in Norris's acerbic worldview to keep the mind occupied long after you leave the theatre.

District 1
Square One, Ho Chi Minh City
Park Hyatt Saigon
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
In a city where hotel restaurants are decidedly lackluster, this (along with the Park Hyatt's other great dining room, Opera) is a remarkable exception: for its confident service; its striking but not distracting interior design featuring latticework screens, dramatically lit displays of fresh produce, and private nooks; and, not least, for the food. The kitchen does particularly well with Vietnamese starters (try the palm-heart salad) and with gloriously fresh seafood, which comes straight from the tanks on display; arrive early for maximum selection. There's also a grill for top-grade steaks, chops, pork, and Wagyu beef.

At the beginning of the year I started the 52 Week Savings Challenge, this is my sheet so far:
I am still doing the sealed pot challenge. I only put 5, 10 and 25 cents in my pot, but it's feeling a bit heavier than it was at the beginning of the year. I am dying to open it to count the money; don't worry I won't spend it if I do!!
My Christmas pot is looking healthy; if you remember I put $20 in there a week and already have $260 saved up. My birthday pot fluctuates but have $140 in there and my "other" pot has $400 in there. I am currently saving up that money for the wood for the Fall/Winter of 2013/14. I did just take $150 out of there to pay for the tickets to the Art Gallery Fund raiser we always go to, and I took $20 out of the birthday pot as well to go towards paying for them.
All in all though I am keeping up with the challenges which is a blessing.
I have also brought in $1,100 for the bringing in an extra $2,013 into the household this year. That includes working and earning money from surveys etc. So well on my way to completing that challenge as well.
My Amazon account is also up to $125 all due to Swagbucks, so that too is looking healthy. My goal for the year was $250 in there, so already half way there with that.
Are you participating in any money saving challenges?

This weekend, the wife and I travelled to Minnesota's North Shore to attend the wedding of our friends Tami and Allen. While there, we eat food, slept, and went to the restroom in accordance with our bodies' natural functions.
This image shows my wife and I posed lovingly before the soulless industrial backdrop of Duluth, MN. Founded by French fur traders in the 17th century, Duluth is a mausoleum of smokestacks, lift bridges, and bedraggled college students on shrooms.
Nice town, though.
Here's a photo from their wedding. You will note that it took place outdoors on the windy shores of Lake Superior on October 18th. If you look closely, you can see the pain across Bridgette's face as her internal organs shut down one by one until she was finally wheeled off on a dolly by a helpful resort custodian.
These last two photographs show several of the items I found discarded in the parks of Duluth. In the photos, I helpfully point to the refuse to direct your eye. Clearly, some classy individual left a trail of Busch Light and Pall Malls in order for his eager followers to find their way to his lair of rural Midwestern iniquity, undoubtedly located in a nearby American Legion.

Months in fleet: Three
Miles to date: 5,564
Is it possible to get safety, utility, value, fuel economy, and perfect driving dynamics in one package? No - although our Four Seasons Honda Fit comes close.
After racking up an additional 1246 miles in April, our staff continues to find the Fit to be a bit manic on the open road, especially when the weather turns blustery. "It's funny that enthusiasts love lithe cars and frequently pine for hatchbacks," notes web editor Phil Floraday, "but the combination of light weight and a tall profile works better for sailboats than economy cars."
Indeed, the Fit's skittish nature, coupled with the lack of a sixth gear, has some of us thinking a Civic would be a better buy for those intent on tackling our nation's highway infrastructure. Others, like executive editor Joe DeMatio, think our opinion will sway now that spring has arrived in Michigan.
"Now that the weather is nice," he writes, "I suspect more people will be willing to take the Fit on slightly longer trips. As long as it's not terribly windy and the sun is shining, it's actually a pretty decent freeway car, because the huge windshield makes for such good visibility." Some argue there may be too much visibility - road test coordinator Mike Ofiara found that the headlamps of a trailing Suburban were enough to transform the rear-view mirror into a veritable disco ball at night.
We still can't sing enough praise for the Fit's packaging, and we've amazed ourselves with how much gear we can pack into the little Honda. DeMatio has perhaps set the record - heading out for a Schutzhund dog training course, he managed to squeeze a dog crate, tent, propane heater, rake, and a number of other baubles into the Fit.

2011-2012 Boys Soccer State Tournaments
Division I
Tuesday's first round schedule
5 p.m.: No. 16 Millennium at No. 1 Chaparral; No. 9 Alhambra vs. No. 8 Chandler (at Hamilton H.S.); No. 12 Carl Hayden vs. No. 5 Ironwood (at Maryvale H.S.); No. 11 San Luis vs. No. 6 Brophy (at Chaparral H.S.).
6 p.m.: No. 14 Desert Vista at No. 3 Gilbert.
7 p.m.: No. 13 Westview at No. 4 Hamilton; No. 10 Tolleson at No. 7 Tucson; No. 15 Mountain View (Mesa) at No. 2 Maryvale.
Quarterfinals: Saturday at 2 p.m. at Nos. 1, 2, 3, or 4 seed or TBD
Semifinals: Wednesday, Feb. 8 at 5 p.m and 7 p.m. at Campo Verde H.S.
Championship: Saturday, Feb. 11 at 6 p.m. at Campo Verde H.S.
Favorite: Despite a less-than-rigorous power point schedule (though the Broncos played tough competition in the AZ Soccer Showcase and national competition in Florida), it's hard to go against No. 6 Brophy. The Broncos lost to No. 1-seed Chaparral in early December, but won another tense battle against the Firebirds in mid-January. The defending champions again have plenty of talent, led by Riggs Lennon, but possibly not quite as much as in 2011.
Contenders: No. 1 Chaparral, No. 2 Phoenix Maryvale, No. 3 Gilbert, No. 4 Hamilton
Sleepers: No. 8 Chandler, No. 12 Carl Hayden, No. 14 Desert Vista
Outlook: Maryvale has unwittingly been a poster-child of confusion after being the No. 2 seed despite a 10-4 record, as playing more matches than anyone else helped its cause. But they're also good, as are about five other schools in Div. I. In this case, seeding appears to offer some indication of a team's true strength shown through the PP season, but it's not something to count on. Nobody thinks Brophy isn't a top caliber team, nobody is quite sure whether undefeated Gilbert - which routinely makes nice playoff runs - is a No. 3 seed because it hasn't had a real difficult schedule, and the Tigers have to beat D.V. and then Brophy in the second round. Nobody thinks Hamilton can't go back to the championship match for a third consecutive season. This tournament is uber-competitive and pretty wide open.
Division II
Tuesday's first round schedule
5 p.m.: No. 16 Flagstaff at No. 1 Apollo; No. 9 Glendale vs. No. 8 Nogales (at Salpointe Catholic H.S.); No. 11 Independence at No. 6 Catalina Foothills (at Tucson H.S.); No. 10 Mohave vs. No. 7 Notre Dame (at Marcos de Niza H.S.).
6 p.m.: No. 13 Prescott at No. 4 Greenway; No. 15 Queen Creek at No. 2 Verrado.
7 p.m.: No. 12 South Mountain at No. 5 Salpointe Catholic; No. 14 Washington at No. 3 Marcos de Niza.
Quarterfinals: Saturday at 2 p.m. at Nos. 1, 2, 3 or 4 seed or TBD
Semifinals: Wednesday, Feb. 8 at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. at Paradise Valley H.S.
Championship: Saturday, Feb. 11 at 1 p.m. at Campo Verde H.S.
Favorite: No. 6 Catalina Foothills
Contenders: No. 5 Salpointe, No. 7 Notre Dame
Sleepers: No. 3 Marcos de Niza, No. 15 Queen Creek
Outlook: The Tucson schools could rule the roost this year, as both Catalina Foothills and Salpointe Catholic are no strangers to these tournaments. Among the E.V. contingent (which isn't many), Marcos de Niza has been the best story this year, as the Padres were a perfect 12-0 in power point matches under second-year coach Daryl Chavez, won eight of those by one-goal margins and haven't had a winning record since 2007. The schedule, however, was most kind to the Padres, and this will be a different world of competition. Notre Dame is the defending champion (4A-II) with the best shot at making another deep run. The issue for the Saints is they only played two schools (Barry Goldwater and Div. III-Fountain Hills) with winning records in the power points schedule, and the Saints lost to Goldwater. The Saints beat Verrado, 4-1, in last year's title match, and it's perfectly plausible the schools could meet again.
Division III
Tuesday's first round schedule
3 p.m.: No. 10 Cactus vs. No. 7 Douglas (Tucson H.S.)
5 p.m.: No. 9 Fountain Hills vs. No. 8 Phoenix Christian (at Seton Catholic H.S.); No. 12 Coolidge vs. No. 5 Cortez (at Coronado H.S.); No. 11 Gilbert Christian vs. No. 6 Mingus (at NW Christian H.S.)
6 p.m.: No. 13 Palo Verde at No. 4 Williams Field
7 p.m.: No. 16 Scottsdale Christian at No. 1 Seton Catholic; No. 14 Catalina at No. 3 Coronado; No. 15 Horizon Honrs at No. 2 NW Christian.
Quarterfinals: Saturday at 2 p.m. at Nos. 1, 2, 3 or 4 seed or TBD
Semifinals: Tuesday, Feb. 7 at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. at Arcadia H.S.
Championship: Friday, Feb. 10 at 7 p.m. at Campo Verde H.S.
Favorite: No. 2 NW Christian
Contenders: No. 1 Seton Catholic, No. 3 Coronado, No. 4 Williams Field, No. 5 Cortez
Sleepers: No. 11 Gilbert Christian, No. 10 Cactus, No. 9 Fountain Hills
Outlook: The Div. III seeding feels a bit more true to form than the bigger divisions. Seton has benefited greatly from a strong schedule (based on opponents win-loss records) and decent tournament competition. The question will be whether the Sentinels can keep up with a NW Christian or Cortez, as those two schools played each other twice (split) during the PP season. The bracket alignments will make it tough on the E.V. contingent, as No. 4 Williams Field faces a mystery in Palo Verde and then would likely have to deal with Cortez in the quarterfinals. Coronado could clash with NW Christian in the semifinals and No. 11 Gilbert Christian would face No. 3 Coronado in the quarterfinals. A lot of unknowns highlight this bracket, as a majority of schools haven't played one another due to geography.

Features By Gwen Reyes on November 16, 2011 | Comments (27)Today People Magazine unveiled their annual "Sexiest Man Alive" winner, crushing the hopes and dreams of thousands of starving beautiful men who thought, maybe just this once, they could have been a contender (better luck next year boys). While Bradley Cooper is a tasty, if not boring, morsel of man, as far as I know he has yet to perform in a movie sex scene. Making him completely of no interest to me in regards to this column. Please correct me if I'm wrong in the comments, as I will for sure need to brush up on my Bradley Cooper sexy-time if it does exist. But enough about my personal disappointment in People Magazine's cornering of the Sexiest Man Alive market, for today is also the day before the night before the opening of the fourth movie in the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn: Part I. Now this little tween fantasy is definitely of interest to me for more than its loose definition of what constitutes child pornography. I have (like almost all women in need of a good train wreck) annually paid good money to the Summit gods for the Twilight experience, and this Friday will be no different. Fans of the sparkly vampire series have (im)patiently waited through the first three films for two Breaking Dawn scenes, one completely contingent on the other. If the press tour mumblings of the film's stars are anything to believe, Twi-hards should already prepare themselves for some hot and heavy action during Bella […]
A Sex Slave Related Giveaway! Enter to See 'Sleeping Beauty' For Free on SundanceNOW
Features By Scott Beggs on November 9, 2011 | Comments (37)Remember the time in college when you were strapped for cash and ended up working as a subconscious prostitute where anyone with a few bucks could have their way with you in your sleep? Yeah, we had that wiped from our memory too. Thankfully, Julia Leigh's new film Sleeping Beauty won't let us forget. Here's the trailer if you want to refresh yourself and get some context for the big spooning image of Emily Browning and your grandpa to the right. It hit Cannes with a mixed vengeance, and it should be in theaters (limited style), but it's also available right this second on SundanceNOW. That is, if you like paying for things. Since we don't, we're giving away a free online ticket to see the movie through that wonderful website. How do you enter? How do you win? Glad you asked.

Patricia Sudendorf
Director of the LL.M. Program in Trial Advocacy for International Students and Instructor of Law
Ms. Sudendorf came to IIT Chicago-Kent in 2013 to launch the law school's new LL.M. Program in Trial Advocacy for International Students. She brings to the law school 17 years' experience as a prosecutor and has been coaching trial advocacy teams since 1996. Over the course of her career, she has litigated more than 60 jury trials and hundreds of bench trials and motions.
Ms. Sudendorf started her legal career as an assistant state's attorney at the Cook County State's Attorney's Office in 1989 as a trial prosecutor. She moved up to supervisor first in the Juvenile Justice Division and then in the branch courts in Skokie. In 2002, she headed the Domestic Violence Division.
From 2004 and 2009, she was assistant director of programs for the National District Attorneys Association in Columbia, South Carolina, where she developed and implemented continuing legal education programs for prosecutors across the country. She also served as managing editor of The Practical Prosecutor, an annual publication on effective trial advocacy for prosecutors, and edited Managing Prosecutors, a manual for prosecutors who supervise other attorneys and support staff.
In 2009, Ms. Sudendorf was recruited to return to the Cook County State's Attorney's Office, where she spent two years as chief of the Sex Crimes Division and supervised more than 20 attorneys.
Ms. Sudendorf has extensive experience teaching trial advocacy skills to attorneys from all over the world. Working with the U.S. Justice Department's Office of Overseas Prosecutorial Development, Assistance & Training, she traveled to Bosnia and Herzegovina for a "Train the War Crimes Trainers" seminar for judges and prosecutors. She also participated in Proyecto Diamante, a federal faculty development program teaching American trial advocacy skills to Mexican prosecutors as Mexico began transitioning to a more adversarial justice system. Between 2006 and 2009, Ms. Sudendorf was director of the Palmetto Council for International Visitors, working with the U.S. State Department's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs to bring current and emerging world leaders to visit the United States. Between 2004 and 2008, she taught trial techniques to Chilean litigators as a visiting faculty member of the Universidad Alberto Hurtado, while Chile's criminal procedure system was transitioning from an inquisitorial model to oral trials. Ms. Sudendorf has also given seminars and lectures for the National District Attorneys Association, the Law Enforcement Training Advisory Commission, and the Ohio Attorney General's Office.
Ms. Sudendorf earned her bachelor's and J.D. degrees from Loyola University Chicago.

Weekly Threats Assessment |
These deviations from the climatological flow pattern cause upper level winds to be more westerly, on average, over the Nation. They also lead to a region of abnormal cyclonic vorticity over much of the southern U.S.. These conditions are associated with increased storminess across the southern U.S. and dry, relatively warm conditions in the north.
Days 3-5 Forecasts
Days 6-10 Forecasts
Days 8-14 Forecasts
Monthly Forecasts
For background the CPC soil model was integrated starting in 1931, and is updated each month. The 1961-90 climatology is subtracted to form the anomalies shown. The current latest map is for the end of November 1997.
The forecasts for soil moisture anomlies at the end-of-April and June 1998 are the composite mean for the 10 past cases when DJF was a warm El Nino event. The units are standard deviation (X100). Clearly, the soil moisture anomaly integrates the precipitation and temperature anomalies associated with a warm event into a fairly smooth and large-scale field. The relationship between ENSO and soil moisture is not simultaneous, because soil moisture reflects past conditions. Contrary to the more noisy temperature and precip, soil moisture has reasonably high skill under cross validation through at least July of next summer. I.e., as of now we have a forecast with 7 month lead and a good guarantee for skill. Significant moisture shortage is thus to be expected at the beginnning of the growing season in the Ohio Valley. The dryness lingers and expands areally to cover much of the east by July. The SW emerges with a very wet soil from the El Nino winter, and this feature too persists into the summer. By August all memory is lost, and the soil climate resets itself. (HVD 12/23/97)

"Thoughts on Thoughts" is a feature that looks at Elliotte Friedman's terrific weekly post "30 Thoughts." Justin Bourne selects his 10 favourite tidbits, and elaborates.
Last edition: Holding the line on contracts
Friedman's column, November 19th: Season of growing discontent
Note: There's just not much breaking news in the world of the NHL these days, so Elliotte pared this week's edition down to 20 Thoughts to keep it strong. I've selected to comment on less for the same reason.
In today's opening Elliotte kicked around the idea of frustrated players and owners speaking out against their current sides. The risk for the owners is huge – a million dollar fine, and Bettman's general disdain, which could affect their ability to get all-star games, inclusion in the Winter Classic and more. But then there's this, on the players:
But I do think some are intimidated by Fehr and I also think many of them saw what happened to Trevor Linden. Eight years ago, Linden decided to break away from then-executive director Bob Goodenow, give in to a salary cap and make the best possible deal. Linden was clobbered for it and his reputation smeared. How does history judge him now?
As Elliotte is implying, I think, history judges Linden more-than-favourably now. He just wanted to get a deal done. I wouldn't be shocked if this things goes on too much longer if we here a player or two admit they just want to get a damn deal done, whether it costs them or not. Not playing sucks, not getting paid sucks, and guys are likely starting to get pretty pissed.
1. So what happened at the end of the Nov. 9 bargaining session, one that necessitated a meeting the next day between Bill Daly, Steve Fehr and Kevin Westgarth to calm the waters? As talks were falling apart, there was a verbal debate between Wild owner Craig Leipold and unsigned free-agent defenceman Chris Campoli, both of whom were upset by how things were going. Concerned things were going to escalate, Bettman stepped in. Then, some words wore exchanged between him and Winnipeg Jets defenceman Ron Hainsey.
I find this fascinating. I always sort of assumed that players that attended the negotiations just sort of hung out somewhere in the room and listened quietly while the lawyers did their thing. They're directly interacting? I would kill to see that – especially if guys are getting all up in owner's faces. They should physically threaten them like bullies, maybe?
Though, if you're an "un-signed" player, is going at it with an owner the best decision? I mean, I doubt it'd make any difference if the team really wanted you, it just seems crazy. I'm also enjoying the randomness of the names that attend the talks. Somewhere today I read a sentence that included "Betman, Fehr and Kevin Westgarth…" …like…what? I need to get into one of these negotiating rooms one day.
3. Seravalli's Daily News article (you can find that here) mentioned the Flyers were "interested in teaming up with the mid-market, high-revenue Pittsburgh Penguins to sway more governors toward a swift resolution." Later, it stated the idea of using former U.S. President Bill Clinton as a mediator. Total longshot, but there is a connection. Penguins president David Morehouse worked in the Clinton administration. Wouldn't we all like to see what would happen between Clinton, Bettman and Fehr? (Clinton used to be tight with Pittsburgh owner Ron Burkle, but that bromance reportedly is over).
Holy sitcom, Batman.
The tough part about bringing in someone to mediate, I imagine, would be the feeling of "you haven't been here, you don't know what we've been through". It's like getting a new teammate, or a new co-worker, and having them tell you what to do in their first week. When you've put so much time and effort into something, new advice from some dude who doesn't know the ins-and-outs like you would difficult.
The Clinton thing seems silly just because he's so high-profile, and we're little old hockey. But obviously he's capable of brokering big deals, so if he can help, by all means – someone get Prez Willy on the line.
10. I had a good debate with a couple of NHL executives who said they'd be disappointed if No. 87 played during the lockout. Look, it's pretty obvious, Crosby's heart isn't really into the idea. Listening to him talk, you can see a lot of his frustration is because he doesn't want to go anywhere. But the guy's played just 69 games in two years, including playoffs. He's going to have to do it eventually.
Yeah, absolutely he will. And actually, I had a similar debate about Rick DiPietro with someone when it was rumoured that he missed some games in Germany's second division with a pulled groin.
Argument 1) As someone with an injury history who doesn't actually want to go play overseas, why not stay home and let your body get as healthy as possible while the lockout endures? Use this break to get yourself back to 100%.
Argument 2) The NHL is the world's best hockey league, and very few talents can go from not playing to jumping into it. Yes, Crosby could play at the NHL level after sitting around waiting, but not to his ridiculously high standards. As Elliotte got at, at some point, you have to get back into game action if you don't want to waste your ability.
Crosby can sit around for awhile, but for sure – it's only a matter of time before he has to go for it.
12. Two years ago, Carolina Hurricanes GM Jim Rutherford explained his belief that you cannot truly judge a defenceman until he turns 24. Rutherford says it's the hardest pro position to learn. While in special cases some become early superstars, you can find a diamond in the rough by waiting a little.
While the idea that there's a hard number that hits and allows you to say "Okay now we know how good that player will be" is probably not bang-on, there's no denying d-men mature later, and can contribute at a high level into later years than forwards.
I actually miss Chris Pronger (thing I never thought I'd type). That dude was going to earn his last (big) contract in Philly, I had no doubt.
14. That Lake Erie team is fast. "They play at NHL speed," said one opponent. The Monsters are Colorado's guys.
The fastest game I ever played in was against the Hartford Wolf Pack in 2008 (I think PA Parenteau was there at the time). I can't imagine how fast the AHL is right now (to be on the ice I mean), and in turn, can't imagine how fast the Stanley Cup playoffs must move, especially the first round. There are times watching some crap NHL game where I've thought in my life "I could keep up with that." When I played against Hartford, I realized I had a ceiling. AHL fans must be loving life if the pace is that great right now.
18. Last year, the Wild used 51-year-old Paul Deutsch in an emergency situation, although he wasn't needed for any game action. This time, the team held a local competition for the honour. It was supposed to be decided in a shootout during the second intermission of Sunday's AHL game against Rockford. Of course, the two finalists tied, meaning there will have to be another showdown later. Great stuff.
This is excellent.
We've all seen and heard the stories of the emergency back-up that gets thrown onto the bench and sits in fear of the starter going out with an injury. Holding a contest for that right was an awesome idea. It should be called, like, "The Best Bad Goalie" contest or something. I used to love practices where an emergency guy would fill in because a goalie is hurt (or in the minors, because of a last-second call up). It was always fun to hammer slapshots hard (and low) from just inside the blue line, and see how far out you can get one to go in from.
20. I wanted to say thank you to everyone for the reaction to last week's blog about my family. We must move past every hardship as quickly as possible. The overwhelming response helped. Thank you.
If you haven't read Elliotte's touching piece "The day that changed everything," I recommend that you do now.
This week in "some commenters are terrible":
The very first comment on Elliotte's "30 Thoughts" blog this week was from a commenter under the handle "Tjinder," who had this to say on what is routinely the best, most informed NHL blog every week:
First my condolences: grandparents are very special people, and you are lucky to have had your grandma around for all those years.
Second, can you please write about hockey that is being played? Are you okay with the fact that your job is basically to support the NHL corporation? Is that why you went into this business – to become a corporate writer?
Why not write about the CHL? AHL? KHL? Swedish Elite League? Anything.
It just seems like a waste of taxpayer dollars for you to continuously write about the NHL corporation, as if you're only job was to keep the NHL corporation in the news, rather than write articles that are interesting and relevant.
Lastly, what is the contractual agreement between CBC and the NHL? Is this what is forcing you to write about the NHL?
How oblivious are some people? "To support the NHL corporation?" Elliotte covers the NHL for a living, and does it well. Would his space be better filled with CHL…what? Highlights? Analysis? Does this guy know he's on the internet?? As in, if he wants to read about the CHL, AHL, KHL, or Swedish Elite League he can?
"A waste of taxpayer dollars?" What the hell is going on here?
I usually know better than to bitch about internet commenters, but good lord. For coherently written words, the thought process seems awfully jumbled.
