Woodbine Mile Gets New Sponsor; Race Named for Northern Dancer
Woodbine Entertainment Group released its 2006 stakes schedule, which includes two new races named for Canadian-bred champion Northern Dancer and sponsor Bell Canada.
Woodbine Entertainment Group released its 2006 stakes schedule, which includes two new races named for Canadian-bred champion Northern Dancer and sponsor Bell Canada.
Woodbine Entertainment Group has reiterated its views on non-racetrack rebate shops by denying International Racing Group access to Woodbine-hosted pools.
Total handle and purses registered gains during the 167-day Woodbine meet that spanned April 16-Dec. 11.
In the two months since common pool pari-mutuel wagering with Canada was first introduced at Emerald Downs and Arlington Park, both tracks have seen significant increases in handle from Canada.
Woodbine Entertainment Group announced July 2 that Canadian wagers on Balmoral Park, a Chicago-based harness track, will for the first time be combined with the U.S. host track's pools, giving customers in both countries the same winning payout prices.
Woodbine Entertainment Group, owner of Canada's largest racetrack, has filed applications that would allow its customers to place wagers directly into common pools at two tracks in the United States--The Meadowlands in New Jersey, and Calder Race Course in Florida. Similar applications for New York and California are slated to follow, said Steve Mitchell, WEG senior vice president and chief financial officer.
Woodbine Entertainment Group announced Friday that the purse for this year's Pattison Canadian International (Can-I) has been increased to a record CAN$2 million in 2005, up significantly from the $1.5-million purse offered last year.
The closing date for nominations to Woodbine's fall turf classics, the Pattison Canadian International and its filly and mare companion, the E.P. Taylor Stakes (both Can-I), have been extended to Oct. 6.
Woodbine Entertainment Group, blaming a decline in slot machine business at both Mohawk and Woodbine as a result of recent implementation of government no smoking laws, announced July 15 an overall 5% cut in purses for Thoroughbred racing.
David Willmot shared his opinions on everything from slot machines to the relationship between purses and handle at Wednesday night's Kentucky Thoroughbred Farm Managers' Club meeting.
Great Canadian Gaming Corporation, through one of its subsidiaries 686486 BC Ltd., has completed its purchase of Hastings Park in Vancouver, British Columbia, in a $20.1 million deal.
Hastings Park, which was put up for sale in February by parent company Woodbine Entertainment Group (WEG), already has a buyer.
The debate over pricing, rebating, and computer betting has put the pari-mutuel industry at odds with some of its best customers, and judging from the latest exchange of opinions and statistics, it could be some time before the situation is resolved.
The Canadian Justice Department is investigating Woodbine Entertainment Group's new online wagering site that critics contend violates the law and should be shut down.
Hastings Park is for sale. The Vancouver racetrack that was purchased by Woodbine Entertainment Group in 2002 apparently isn't performing as well as its parent company had hoped, even though attendance and wagering have increased since it changed hands.
Hastings Park opens its 71-day live season April 17. The track has scheduled two more live racing days than last season and purses have increased nearly 15% over last year.
Fraser Downs, a British Columbia Standardbred track located not far from Hastings Park, received approval Dec. 16 to install slot machines. The Surrey City Council will schedule a fourth reading on the measure and approve final documents in a few weeks, the track said in a press release.
After three straight years of gain in handle, due in part to the addition of slot machines in 2000, Woodbine reported a 4.5% drop in handle for its 2003 meet. The Ontario oval ended its 162-day meet on Nov. 30.
Operators of racetracks with gaming devices continue to look for ways to drive pari-mutuel handle, but they admit converting slots players to handicappers is a long-term challenge.
Canada's largest outdoor advertising company has agreed to sponsor the Canadian International (Can-IT) for the next three years.
The Vancouver city council has lifted its ban on slots, which means, if things progress as expected, Hastings Park racetrack could install as many as 900 slot machines by this time next year.
Woodbine Entertainment Group, which operates Thoroughbred and Standardbred meets, is considering a purchase or lease of Meadowlands, another dual-breed facility, according to a published report.
In the wake of the New York Racing Association's announcement it would require starters in the June 7 Belmont Stakes to be in a "stakes barn" about 24 hours before the race, officials at two major dual-breed racetracks said detention, or retention, has achieved its goals but continues to be assessed on a regular basis.
Scientific Games Corp. announced fourth quarter financial results (year ending Dec. 31, 2002) Feb. 28 and reported a 10% gain in revenue for the quarter.
Woodbine Entertainment Group has announced that Steve Lym has been appointed the company's Thoroughbred racing secretary.
A threatened boycott at Woodbine by the Ontario Harness Horsemen's Association (owners and trainers) was averted Monday when both sides in a dispute over simulcasting agreed to extend their existing contract for 90 days while resuming talks.
The meet-end figures at Hastings Park showed a 29.7% increase in purses and nearly 6% upswing in total handle.
Woodbine Entertainment Group announced Thursday that a purse increase at Woodbine will go into effect Sunday.
Woodbine Entertainment Group announced Wednesday that it has acquired through its subsidiary, Hastings Entertainment Inc., "substantially all" of the assets of Pacific Racing Association, which operates Hastings Park in Vancouver, Canada.
Woodbine, in suburban Toronto, has joined the National Thoroughbred Racing Association NTRA, it was announced Thursday.
Woobine Entertainment Group has extended its telephone wagering services to patrons of the Flamboro Downs harness track, about 40 miles south of Toronto.
Woodbine Race Course reported a 14% increase in average daily handle driven by a substantial increase in purses and field size.
The Fasig-Tipton Sales Co. is returning to Canada. After a 12-year hiatus, the Lexington-based company has been asked to run the annual yearling sale at Woodbine Racetrack. Canadian Thoroughbred industry leaders hope the change will bring some stability and growth to the breeding and sales markets.
The OJC on Friday changed its name to Woodbine Entertainment Group, and also unveilved a new Web site that reflects the change. In a prepared statement, WEG said the new name better reflects the scope of the company and its business.

While the 30-year-old "Toxic" singer and the 19-year-old "Skyscraper" songstress have only just begun their X Factor stint, Lopez, 42, is practically an American Idol vet after two seasons on the hit FOX show.
While millions trust their opinions on up and coming singers, the real question is -- who looks best in a two piece?
Click through the gallery to see their bikini looks, then cast your vote in the poll!
While Demi and Britney are locked in for at least one season of X Factor alongside Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid, earning $15 million and $1 million paychecks respectively, the jury is still out on whether or not the "Dance Again" singer will return for her third season of Idol.

Six Nations 2013: Scotland 34-10 Italy

Stuart Hogg scored a spectacular solo try against Italy as Scotland secured their record Six Nations win and their first in the tournament for two years.
Scotland were full of intensity from the off and went 13-0 up through Tim Visser's try and Greig Laidlaw's boot.
Luciano Orquera made it 13-3 with a penalty but Matt Scott scored a converted try soon after the break.

Hogg claimed an 80m interception try and Sean Lamont also crossed before Alessandro Zanni's consolation score.
Scotland, whose previous record win in the Championship was the 32-10 victory against Ireland in 2001, went into the game fearing a repeat of 2007, when Italy secured what remains their only away win in the Six Nations by triumphing at Murrayfield.
The Azzurri were full of confidence after their fine display against France, while Scotland were on the wrong end of a heavy defeat away to England.
The Scots were out-fought and out-muscled at Twickenham, but they were a different proposition in Edinburgh and flew into the breakdown.
That meant Italy were always on the back foot and the likes of Azzurri fly-half Orquera, so commanding last weekend, were shadows of the players they were in Rome.
In contrast the Scottish half-backs enjoyed the chance to play front foot rugby and some superb finishing from their talented runners out wide was rapturously received by the success-starved Scottish fans.
The hosts could have taken an early lead but Laidlaw's grubber kick bounced wickedly to elude the on-rushing Visser.

But Laidlaw knocked over two penalties to get the scoreboard ticking over and with Scotland attacking rucks with far more urgency than they managed against England, Italy were always in trouble.
A superb tackle from the covering Tobias Botes denied Scott but the hosts scored their first try when Jackson dummied and fed Netherlands-born winger Visser, who stepped off his left foot and powered over.
Orquera, who had missed an early penalty, made no mistake just before the break to make it 13-3 to the hosts at half-time, but the Scots remained in total control in the second half.
They added a second try when former Canterbury Crusader Sean Maitland came off the blind-side wing to make the initial bust and Scott was on his shoulder to arc round last man Orquera and score.
Italy looked like they might hit back as Orquera tried to free centre Tommaso Benvenuti 10m from the Scottish line, but Hogg had read the fly-half's mind and was already setting sail for the Italian line 80m away.
He scythed past Martin Castrogiovanni and Botes before burning off the chasing defence to score one of the great solo tries of the Six Nations.
Scott was denied a second try by a marginal forward pass decision, but the hosts did not have to wait long for a fourth as Lamont picked up a loose ball to stride over.
Laidlaw converted all three tries and although Zanni profited from Sergio Parisse's fine pass to grab Italy's consolation try, Scotland will welcome Ireland to Edinburgh in a fortnight's time with more optimism than they have felt for quite some time.

11th February 2013 - 20:04Scotland win 1 game and there are world beaters ?
They are present wooden spoonists, and only beat Italy (they looked good though)
Both are the lowest ranked teams in the 6 nations on performances
Wait until the final games are over .... and guess which 2 teams will occupy the bottom places .... any guesses -
Comment number 232.
11th February 2013 - 19:58Well played Scotland aggressive in defence and positive in attack, we didn't allow Italy to play and we took our chances well. I had doubts about Jackson but I'm glad to say he proved me wrong, his distribution was good, he made the first try and he tackled all over the park. Murray also proved me wrong and had a great game I just wish he was a bit more consistent.

11th February 2013 - 18:44Healy cited for Ireland. I think Castrogiovanni on Kelly Brown was equally cynical

Although the URLs for internet access to the Carnegie Stages of Early Human Embryonic Development were changed a couple of years ago, one can still see a number of current articles being written that continue to use the old URLs which no longer work, or cite articles in which the old URLs were used without providing corrections.

"Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!" History, including the history of "bioethics", can help to untangle some of the massive sticky webs we find ourselves in today.

Given that, oddly, there seems to be an international recurrence of prolifers promoting the erroneous phrase "from conception to natural death", perhaps my earlier article (copied below) can shed some critical light on why that is dangerous -- theologically, scientifically, morally and legally.
Date posted: 2014-09-07
In considering the Hobby Lobby case, the "religious beliefs" of the plaintiffs just happen to match the long-documented and long-acknowledged objective scientific facts of human embryology. But it would seem that there's enough gobbledygook to go around. It doesn't emanate from just the "pro-choice" side in these debates.

This video is truly one of the funniest, yet timely and profound, "discussions" on "bioethics" and medical doctors I've seen in a long time. It is amusing, short and sweet, easy to understand, and yet beautifully articulate. What follows also in this article are simply a few of my own observations about how we ever got into such messes these days to begin with.
Date posted: 2014-05-27
"IVG", or in vitro generated gametes, is already a reality, can be accomplished by several different kinds of asexual reproductive techniques, starting with different kinds of cells, yet very little attention has been paid to it by the public. When used with human cells, IVG is a form of human genetic engineering, and a form of human cloning -- all accomplished before the use of these engineered experimental gametes are used in "fertilization". All the foreign genes involved in this engineering feat will also be passed down through the new genetically engineered embryo's descendants

Summary: Any genuine bench research scientist knows all too well that you can fool some of the scientists all of the time, and all of the scientists some of the time, but you can't fool all of the scientists all of the time -- regardless if they are "prolife" or "prochoice". Such is the case with the very odd phenomenon we are currently witnessing with Herranz's recent new "theory" on human monozygotic (MZ) "identical" twinning.
Date posted: 2014-03-15
The topic of monozygotic twinning (MT) on which the recent paper by Herranz (Herranz, 2013) focuses is indeed a fascinating one, not only for the embryologist. And, as pointed out by the author, it may on principle also be relevant for ethical discussions in the context of embryo research and stem cell work in humans. Obviously, this is the reason why the paper was published in Zygote, in spite of the fact that it concentrates on history and speculation. When reading through the paper, however, I have ended up disappointed.

Peavey Impulse 12D Combines 'Cutting-Edge Technology' & 'Legendary Peavey Durability'
High power, pristine clarity and light weight come together in the Peavey® Impulse® 12D, a portable, powered loudspeaker enclosure that combines Peaveyâs revolutionary IPR⢠amplifier technology with a true ribbon driver. Pro Audio Review magazine put the groundbreaking Impulse 12D to the test for its October 2011 issue.
âIn the [Impulse] 12D, Peavey has done a fantastic job combining legendary Peavey durability; classic touches such as the Black Widow woofer; cutting-edge IPR amp technology, and the uniqueness of the ribbon driver,â wrote Joshua D. Garber. âCombined, these create a rather big, clean sound. And with 1200W at your disposal, you can easily drift between coffee houses and small to medium-sized clubs with half the size and weight of comparable PA systems.
âFor someone who has always associated âloudâ with âhuge and heavy,â I am honestly surprised, because those latter two adjectives do not describe the Impulse 12D,â he wrote.
The Peavey Impulse 12D powered loudspeaker enclosure incorporates exclusive Peavey audio innovations to provide unprecedented power, sound reproduction and light weight. Featuring a true ribbon driver based on the Peavey Versarray⢠line array ribbon, and a 12â Peavey Black Widow® loudspeaker engineered with dual voice coil, push-pull technology and a neodymium magnet, the Impulse 12D produces full-range sound for multiple live audio and music applications.
Utilizing Peavey's revolutionary IPR power amplifier technology, the Peavey Impulse 12D enclosure produces 1,200 watts of power with a lightweight, switch-mode power supply and a high-speed class D topology that yields the highest audio resolution.
Added Garber, âThe Impulse 12D seems substantially more rugged in construction than most molded enclosures Iâve found in the realm of portable PAâand thatâs a welcome find indeed.â The Impulse 12D is housed in a rugged polypropylene molded enclosure with top, bottom and side flying point inserts and a molded-in pole mount.
The Impulse 12D back panel features two input channels and a line output, with a mix of I/O options such as combination XLR-¼" jacks, RCA and install-ready Phoenix connections. Input channels 1 and 2 also have mic/line source switches and gain controls. The Auto-Off function automatically shuts off the power when it no longer detects a signal, while the Line Out allows the user to chain multiple units or send the input signal to another source.
The DynaQ section offers advanced tone controls such as Bass Enhancer, which is an overall loudness boost; a Music/Speech switch that provides optimized EQ settings for each audio type; and Contour, specially configured for program music. A module bay allows for future expansion.
Worship Leader magazine recently named the Peavey Impulse 12D loudspeaker enclosure to its 2011 âBest of the Bestâ list, a vital annual directory of everything from the best music resources to the ultimate software, visual and presentation technology, worship training, musical instruments, apps, sound and recording equipment, and more.
Founded in 1965, Peavey® is one of the worldâs largest manufacturers of musical instruments and professional sound equipment. Peavey has earned more than 180 patents and produces more than 2,000 products, which are distributed throughout the United States and to 136 other countries. Peavey and its MediaMatrix®, Architectural Acoustics®, Crest Audio®, Composite Acoustics® and Trace Elliot® brands and affiliates can be found on concert stages and in more than 5,000 airports, stadiums, theme parks and other venues around the world.

As Jay Leno concludes his 17 years with The Tonight Show, WomansDay.com pays tribute to this beloved late-night television show with a look back at the four celebrity hosts (and a little history on the newest comedian taking the reins). Over the past 55 years, the show has portrayed pop culture and political issues in a humorous way, attracting millions of viewers and winning 10 Emmy Award awards, becoming the 3rd longest-running entertainment show on air. With a fun mix of celebrity interviews, comedic bits and musical guests, The Tonight Show has won a place in the hearts of Americans across the country. Celebrate this beloved show by reliving some of the most renowned segments and phrases from over the years.
Steve Allen, 1954-1957
This New Yorker was the first host of the show and is legendary for his "man on the street" interviews as well as his comedy breaks that always featured audience members. NBC later offered Allen a Sunday evening show, The Steve Allen Show, where he became the first host to feature African-American jazz musicians on a television show.
Jack Paar, 1957-1962
This Ohio-born host came to be the star of the The Tonight Show when NBC first noticed him on The Jack Benny Program and later offered him the infamous position. As an outstanding storyteller who loved the expression "I kid you not," he is still known as the host who generated the most publicity and interest among the press as well as the audience members.
Johnny Carson, 1962-1992
"Heeeeere's Johnny!" This Television Academy Hall of Fame inductee and comedian was the host for 30 years—during which time the show received six Emmy Awards. Carson served in the U.S. Navy and then hosted a variety of shows before his time on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. He is well-known for his trademark phantom golf swing at the end of each monologue aimed directly towards the band.
Jay Leno, 1992-2009
Another New York-born Emmy Award-winning comedian, Leno was famous for his segments such as "Jaywalking," "Headlines" and "Stuff We Found on eBay." Leno preferred to always host the show, rarely having guest hosts, and will begin as the star of the new NBC night show, The Jay Leno Show in September 2009.
Conan O'Brien, 2009-Present
Massachusetts-born O'Brien will be taking over The Tonight Show hosting duties on June 1, 2009. Though he had a rocky-start on Late Night, his fan base has since grown and the show was eventually nominated for 30 Emmy Awards during his 16 years hosting. The guests for his debut episode of The Tonight Show include comedian Will Ferrell and the rock band Pearl Jam.

ill fitting
If a B- cup existed, that would be my size; however, I have wide shoulders and a little meat on my "wings" and arms. That being said, I bought a M, as I usually am a size small in such products. This top fit tight around the arms, but the bust was also a tad too small. Guess I'm a large in DB bras??
October 18, 2014
Meets My Need
I wanted a bra which would minimise my bust. This "Seamless Comfort Bra" fulfils such a purpose. Would-be buyers are best advised to heed the advice to size-up.
July 31, 2014
Love these bras, so comfortable and easy to wash.
These were so popular in the local stores, they sold out in a flash,I had to order on line.
Very comfortable.
July 17, 2014
Not what expected
Shop all the time at Dress Barn and buy medium. Medium was way to small, I think it was fitted for teen or early 20's girl. Fabric was thinner than I expected

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Where's the warmth for southern Ontario? High of 20C in Vancouver. Up to 28C in the BC interior this week says the weatherman but Ontario still struggling after a merciless winter robbed Toronto of much needed trees. I have a few bulbs trying to flower. Some trees have buds while many big flowering trees are done on the west coast. What a huge difference in spring climate. Especially this year. In this video the tree referred to as coconut is a mistake but you can only guess that its a palm. Palms and bamboo have jumped the border of California across a few small states and finally to BC. Why did that happen? Why can't the Great Lakes get warmer instead of freezing over as much as ever before? I guess we can think about that in Toronto after we pick up the branches in our spring cleanup. I expect the weather to warm up significantly but we can't hold on to mild weather. Maybe next week!? Vancouver is so far ahead of us with its multitude of greenery and exotic stuff. C'mon Toronto, heat up! www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdcw4LsM-1I Don't you just like video evidence? |
Follow-Up Postings:
What's your point? *bump* |
Those of us who live in BC don't need "video evidence". We have evidence everyday when we watch the weather reports from everywhere else in North America that we are living in the best place. BC is the only place that has had a good winter this year. |
The sunny BC interior was enjoying summer as wet southern Ontario struggles for a spring day with t-shirts. Osoyoos 29C yesterday. Toronto was at 12C max. Actually a mild day this spring so far. Nanaimo north of Victoria has many trees in leaf. Probably all! And buds have just started in southern Ontario. Ontario is the winter of our discontent this year. Way too much cold this spring after a punishing winter that did destroy so many trees. And Victoria probably has new palm foliage popping out of a crown of green post winter foliage. God bless the Information Age when you can record anything like Rob Ford's antics and play it immediately. |

Paul_Ont, while i only skim posts like this I think you really need to move to this promised land so you can quit whining like a 3yr old. BC is absolutely beautiful but also stands for "Bring Cash" as it isn't cheap to live here. Have a great day :) SCG |

It's not just Ontario, you know. All of Canada east of the Rockies to the Maritimes is experiencing a cool spring. Alberta, Saskatchewan and even Manitoba don't exactly count as eastern Canada, so it's not an east vs west thing at all. It's a BC vs the rest of Canada thing. Do you want to trade places with this Saskie? I bet you that nothing Southern Ontario can dish up compares to what we go through in the Prairies in a normal spring, much less a cold spring like this one. It may be cool in southern Ontario but at least you're not dealing with heavy May snowfalls or daytime highs below freezing. Here are the forecast highs for Toronto for the next 5 days: 13, 16, 15, 15, 15, with some sunshine thrown in. We would LOVE to have that kind of weather in SK. And think back to the last roaster of a summer southern Ontario had in 2012. That was one of the few years where the warmth went all the way to Saskatchewan, relatively speaking. We were happy to have nearly three months where we didn't need to wear a jacket outdoors during the evenings. That's all we ask for. Even the coldest, wettest, most rotten weather in Toronto during spring, summer or fall is head and shoulders above what we deal with in AB and SK. |

LOL Slimy_Okra, exactly why most sane people stay away from AB and SK... although it only takes a short period of winter to fry your brain and make you think it is normal. LOL..... SCG |
I agree with SCG that Paul needs to move to BC so he can quit whining! I've lived in New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, and BC and BC wins hands down for weather at any time of year. Even tho I no longer live on the balmy west coast but in the colder inland area it's preferable to any of the other provinces. Never humid, mostly sunny, little wind, no tornadoes, few noxious garden bugs - what's not to love. Sure it's zone 3 but that only means I get a break from gardening for 6 months! Perfect! |

Effective immediately, RTL has released contractual restrictions on $50 million in cash previously invested in CEDC to allow CEDC to use this cash for working capital and general corporate purposes, and committed to make available a $15 million revolving credit facility to CEDC (drawable no earlier than February 1, 2013), subject to definitive documentation and the provision of reasonably satisfactory security by CEDC. Russian Standard has also committed to provide CEDC with up to $107 million of new capital (reduced by the amount of the commitment under the new revolving credit facility) subject to and conditional upon an overall restructuring of CEDC's capital structure that is acceptable to CEDC and Russian Standard.
In exchange, CEDC will provide guarantees and liens on assets of its subsidiaries in respect of the debt currently evidenced by $50 million of senior CEDC notes held by Russian Standard. In addition, CEDC has agreed to certain corporate governance changes, including:
- The creation of an Operational Management Committee to oversee all day-to-day business and operational management of CEDC with CEDC management to report directly to this committee. The Operational Management Committee will consist of Mr. Roustam Tariko, Mr. Scott Fine and another CEDC board member nominated by Russian Standard.
- The creation of a Restructuring Committee with full responsibility for all matters related to any restructuring of CEDC's capital. The Restructuring Committee will consist of three non-Russian Standard directors and Mr. Roustam Tariko.
- The appointment of Grant Winterton, the current Chief Executive Officer of the Russian Alcohol Group - a CEDC subsidiary, as Chief Executive Officer of CEDC effective January 10, 2013.
CEDC and Russian Standard have also reached agreement on the slate of directors to be proposed at the next annual general meeting of CEDC shareholders, which will be convened as soon as practicable. The slate of directors will consist of three directors nominated by Russian Standard and three directors nominated by non-Russian Standard directors. In addition, shareholders will be given the opportunity to elect a seventh director from among two candidates, one nominated by Russian Standard and one by the non-Russian Standard directors.

Vt. police say cause of St. Michael's fire unknownMarch 07,2014COLCHESTER-Vermont State Police now say that a fire last month at Saint Michael's College in Colchester was not caused by an electrical space heater as originally thought.
Police and fire officials said Thursday that they have not determined the cause of the early morning fire that broke out in a town house on campus on Feb. 17 but say it was not suspicious.
Police say an investigation determined that no space heaters were in use and that the electric heater units mounted on the walls in the building did not cause the fire.
No one was injured in the fire, which caused an estimated $250,000 in damage.MORE IN This Just InMan faces fourth Full Story -

Chemical engineering Professor Charles Mullins, chemistry Professor Allen Bard and mathematics Professor Irene M. Gamba have received about $2.5 million to identify new materials that will efficiently absorb sunlight and split water into clean hydrogen fuel that could power cars and be used to generate electricity. For the next three years, the three professors will collaborate on the endeavor, which encompasses two grants from the National Science Foundation ($1.4 million) and the U.S. Department of Energy (about $1.1 million). Bard and Mullins are affiliated with the Center for Electrochemistry at the university.

Called about an hour before arriving with no reservation, got me in no problem. Check-in and employees were very friendly. Sites down near the lake are built on platforms so each site can see the water. My site was a double pull through, wasn't very level, but I could make do without blocks. Sites are relatively narrow, but I was still able to put all slides and awnings out. Very friendly park, I will be back. - A Chevalier
Camped here for a long weekend. The weather was great. Realizing that it was late in the season, some of the amenities were not available (boats, pool, etc) it still didn't detour us from have a good time. Management stayed late to show us our site (Checked in @ 7:00). Site was huge and well shaded. Bathhouse was in great condition, and well maintained. Staff was very friendly and the Deli was outstanding. Will camp here again! - Chkysbak
This campground was very family friendly by having plenty for our children to do. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They do have a lot of permanent campers there. The site we were at was one back from the lake and it was breezy and peaceful. We would go here again. - HappyCampers6

I've noticed two recent trends in death metal. The first being deathcore, which I find, to some degree, very enjoyable. The second being the storm of criticism from "true" death metal fans on this genre. I enjoy the originality in some of the bands, namely Suicide Silence, Arsonists Get All the Girls, and Veil of Maya, while others I agree with the criticism (Job for a Cowboy is overrated and just not that good). This brings me to Darkest Hour, one of the few -core bands that cannot be cracked on. Their riffs are original and not ripped from At the Gates's masterpiece, Slaughter of the Soul, and to even note their originality they collaborated with Tomas Lindberg on occassion.
I picked up Undoing Ruin during a period of time which I was in a brief metalcore phase in 2005. I was just getting into death metal at the time, having been introduced to Cryptopsy's None So Vile, and I was eager to explore. Darkest Hour blended all that I was liking at the time with what I was exploring. I personally am not guitarist, though I greatly appreciate the talent behind using the axe, and I fell in love with riffs on Undoing Ruin. Every song flows with torrentially elegant riffs that are catchy and original. John Henry's vocals can be irritating to some, but they fit here. Not too growly or screechy and with such a light touch of his normal voice that it does not breach on pure hardcore homosexuality, they are perfect for this album. The drums I find generic but precise and fitting. The bass finds itself well with the sweeping guitars. Overall just a very solid album.
Three years later and I'm essentially a death metal affecionado, and though some might find my liking for this album blasphemy, I still listen to it a few times a week. Anything that has any -core influence should not be denounced for simply that label. Fuck labels! Enjoy the music without dissecting it. If you're a fan of good wholesome melodic death metal then I highly recommend Darkest Hour's Undoing Ruin.
This is the first Darkest Hour album I picked up, and I thought it to be very enjoyable. The band seems to be gelling quite well and the songs are very well crafted.
The production here is awesome, courtesy of Devin Townsend. Everyone in the band gets a chance to shine as all the instruments are crystal clear and the vocals come on top rather nicely.
The vocals however are the only reason i haven't given this record a higher grade. They aren't terrible, but I personally prefer harsh vocals with a little more power, which is simply not the case here.
The guitars are definitely the "it" factor of the record. Kris Norris and Mike Schleibaum complement each other perfectly, fusing groovy riffs with interesting and catchy melodies. There are also a few guitar solos worthy of mention, my personal favorite being on "Sound the Surrender", where some intense swweps and string skipping are happening and the band is very tight on the time changes.
The drums also make the record quite interesting, opting to grrove out instead of using blasts or crazy fills all the time. It helps preserve the american sound the band have.
The songwriting is very cool, it shows that Devin helped them out because the arrangements are flawless on tracks such "Sound the Surrender" and "Convalescence", these two songs being my favorite on the album.
All in all a fun record to listen to, nothing groundbreaking, but very tight arrangements and good songwriting will take the cake for me anytime.
The first Darkest Hour song I've ever heard was "The Sadist Nation." Amazing song. My favorite Darkest Hour song ever. Set the bar high for when I finally got my hands on "Hidden Hands of a Sadist Nation," to be sure. Alas, "Hidden Hands" was one, repetitive, LOOOOOONG song. Except for "Veritas, Aequitas" and the aforementioned "The Sadist Nation," I was bored while listening. Now, when I heard that Darkest Hour was working with Devin Townsend for "Undoing Ruin," my interest piqued; Townsend was and still is one of my favorite musicians, and I wondered what he would do with Darkest Hour. Turns out, he worked a miracle. Bar none, one of my top 5 releases of 2005.
The Townsend influence is heard immediately; "With a Thousand Words to Say But One" opens with some ambience before the main riff comes in at 40 seconds. The song is an amazing opener; technical guitars, sexy harmonies, an intelligible John Henry, Ryan Parrish's above par drumming and even a bass fill!
The riffs are memorable without simplifying them for the sake of making the memorable; in fact they are more technical than anything I've heard of from Darkest Hour before or since. There's an abundance of solos, as well; another large plus, as guitarist Kris Norris is more than capable of creating technical, melodic solos that stick in your head. Listen to the leads in "Ethos" for, in my opinion, the best example of this. As well, Ryan Parrish's drumming, a highlight of "Hidden Hands," is awesome here, too; his fills are creative and he doesn't overplay, knowing when to flash his chops and when to lay back and provide a solid background. Paul Burnette, while mostly just hanging back and providing the low end foundation, throws in a couple of fills here and there, and with some of the guitar riffs, it is a testament to his playing ability that he can keep up with Norris and Mike Schleibaum. John Henry has definitely stepped it up vocally, as Townsend said in an interview, he now pronounces his consonants; intead of going "BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BLAAAAA BLAAAAAAAAAA" he goes "BLAAAAA BLAAAAAA BLAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRT." They are intense, emotive, and easily understood, which is always a plus when reading along.
Speaking of lyrics, the band has definitely stepped it up in the lyrics department. As pointed out by AMG's review, they have turned away from fish-in-a-barrel topics like religious and government corruption, the prescribed society, and apathy. On "Undoing Ruin," the band turns inward and introspective, and they add an element of hope to every song, a nice welcome change from the negativity of their previous albums, and metal in general.
The differences between the production of this record and "Hidden Hands" are like night and day. Where "Hidden Hands" was just a cacophony of drums and guitars and vocals all competing against each other for the listener's attention, a mindless drubbing that really grated on the listener after a while, this album's production is virtually flawless. It's crystal clear, sharp, and every instrument is given its own space. There's also an epic feel that permeates the record, which is no doubt the work of Townsend's production. It is at least three heads above all of Darkest Hour's past efforts.
In short, this album is amazing. It's too short (37:49), but this is a great thing; it makes me want more, while "Hidden Hands" was overlong and got me sick of the band. "Undoing Ruin" is by far the best Darkest Hour has ever done in every aspect, and easily one of my top 5 of 2005.
Best Songs:
With a Thousand Words to Say But One
This Will Outlive Us
Sound the Surrender
These Fevered Times
Darkest Hour may be looked over by "true" metalheads because of the Victory Records logo on their albums. The label does not make the band. Darkest Hour seem to have poured their hearts out to create their latest effort, Undoing Ruin. This album is filled with great riffs and songs, as a whole. The band establishes more of a "Swedish" sound, as many would say, with less "hardcore" than before. This album is balls-out intensity - John Henry screams throughout the entire album - this doesn't ruin the music, it further intensifies it - over the dual guitar harmonies (in thirds, of course).
The album starts off with the thrashy "With a Thousand Words..." which will definitely catch an ear. Then, appropriately, follows to the more epic and melodic "Convalescence". I am sure that many thrash metal fans will adore "This Will Outlive Us" - the song just blasts in with one of those random-ass thrashy solos (fucking awesome). There are a few soft spots on the album, like, "Pathos", which sets a sense of equilibrium to the album.
I know for sure that I can recommend this album (or band) to any fan of the Gothenburg-style or, generally, melodic music. This release is definitely a hit. There is only one complaint: it is too short (37:45)! Cheers to Darkest Hour!

Electrical Power Recharging Options for Extended Cruise
Stormer, you''ve got a basically suitable electrical system for your passage plans but I think you misunderstand how a hicap alternator & lead acid batteries work and therefore think you have needs which in reality might not exist.
The charging regimen you describe is exactly what is supposed to happen, and having a hicap alternator (let''s assume it''s a small frame 100-110 amp unit, with perhaps less output at max temp) does not provide for rapid, full bank charging, something I get the impression you think should be available and adviseable. This isn''t suitable because the lead acid batteries can''t sustain it. One you''ve passed the bulk rate charge, the batteries are what dictates the acceptance rate of charge; this will be true whether you''re working off a generator, alternator or whatever else you might use (so long as you care for the batteries properly).
Given that you have the typical ''100 amp/day boat'' and especially with your cruise plans - frequent docking/anchoring at times (engine running), perhaps the occasional plug-in, routine living aboard and cruising - you should IMO be fine using the 50-80 rule. This refers to the fact that you don''t really want to draw down the house bank below 50% in order to max the lifespan of the bank, and you don''t want to charge much above 80-85% of bank capacity simply because the efficiency of doing so becomes less and less (just as you describe). This 30-35% ''band'' of your 440AH bank is roughly 140-150 amp hrs, or about 1.5 days of average electrical consumption with refrigeration before a charge is required, followed by an initially high bulk rate charge (I would expect your system would charge a 50% full bank at the 80-90 amp rate; if it doesn''t, your alternator is overrated or your regulator isn''t doing it''s job) that should put most of another day''s electrical capacity back in your bank within one hour.
This is where alternative energy comes in, as the process described above introduces a slowly dropping curve with slowly increased battery charging times in order to insure the 50% capacity level is never exceeded. But for a finite cruise period such as you anticipate, and with moving the boat being a norm, I agree that the purchase of ancillary charging sources is probably not needed...and that would include a generator.
However, if you consider a generator, realize that it might not be controlled by your regulator (this can be a real problem with smart systems and dumb generators) and you''ll likely have to bypass that system entirely and connect the generator directly to the house bank.
Don''t think you should be working from 100% capacity ''down'', but rather expect that you''ll be oscillating between 50-80% capacity, at which point you might conclude as I do that there isn''t a problem you need to solve.
Good luck on a safe, enjoyable cruise!

Update Feb 2011 WAHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
I just wanted to give everyone an update on my daughter's friend Corey.. he is at the Super Bowl!!!! He is still a patient at Walter Reed Hosp, but doing a heck of a lot better than what he was. The outlook is like 100% better. Here is a story from our local news the other day.. I am just thrilled..... http://www.winknews.com/Local-Florid...t-to-Superbowl Wounded Cape Coral solider scores free ticket to Super Bowl Story Created: Feb 04, 2011 at 5:16 PM America/New_York CAPE CORAL, Fla.- A wounded Cape Coral solider is granted a dream come true. Private First Class Corey Kent has weathered a long road to recovery after suffering extreme injuries during combat in Afghanistan. But today, he's celebrating the surprise of a lifetime. He scored a top-notch ticket to the Superbowl, free of charge. General David Petraeus selected Corey, along with four other wounded soldiers, to take a few tickets off his hands...50-yard line seats to the Superbowl. The guys are flying out to the game First Class, thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor. Corey's stepdad, Dan Ashby, says the die-hard Packers fan is ecstatic. "Going to the Superbowl is one thing, but going to see your team-- that's the icing on the cake," Ashby said Friday. The trip will mark Corey's first time travelling alone outside Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington, D.C. Corey's endured months of rehabilitation there after losing both legs and the fingers on one hand in combat. "I just focus on what I'm doing on a day to day basis, try to keep all that straight and heal up as fast as I can," Kent told WINK's partners at the News-Press last month. But taking off for the game was no easy feat. First, Corey had to convince doctors he could take care of himself for the weekend. "Corey's like no problem, I can do that. I'll take care of the meds and whatever else I have to do. He wasn't going to let anything stand in his way on going on the trip," Ashby said. Corey's taking in his first ever pro-football game in high style. On Saturday, he's touring the stadium, and on Sunday, he'll be cheering on Green Bay from a suite on the 50-yard line. "I said, this isn't the way it usually works when you go to a football game, so don't get too used to this!" Ashby chuckled. Tonight, Corey's packing up his things and preparing to fly out to the game on his own. He tells family he's ready for his first stab at independence, Superbowl-style. "This is going to be good for him. He's going to see that he can do things on his own and he can be away from the hospital and nothing is going to happen," Ashby said. Kent will fly out with another wounded solider at Walter Reed Hospital for the game early Saturday morning. :thu mbsup2 Oh.. and he is a die-hard Packers fan... forgot to mention that.. He is probably having the time of his life sitting in that box right now...and he so does deserve it... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ now on to my DH....he on the other hand isn't doing 100%.. he is going to the ortho this week to be released as far as his shoulder goes, but he is going to be headed back to the neurosurgeon as soon as he can get an appointment. It looks like he may need that second surgery on his neck after all

So thrilled that Corey is having this experience, it must be wonderful to be able to spend some time away from the hospital and the long hard slog of rehab.
Thanks so much for the update, I shall pass the news on to my mum's bible study group that continue to pray for Corey. I am sorry that things are not going well for your husband and shall keep him in my thoughts. Big hugs to you and your family Quasar

The road to the 2013 Kentucky Derby makes its final major stop of 2012 this weekend, as we preview the last graded stakes of the Hollywood Park meeting, the G1 CashCall Futurity. The race is an annual preview of next season's Triple Crown contenders. A field of 11 will contest the $750,000 race for two-year-olds at a mile and one-sixteenth on the main track. The winner's share of the three-quarter million dollar pot use to virtually lock-up a spot in the Kentucky Derby the following spring, but the old graded stakes earnings system for entry into "The Run For The Roses" has been scrapped in favor of a "new" points system. The Cash Call Futurity has produced six Kentucky Derby champions and winners of 15 Triple Crown races since 1981.
What makes the Cash Call of more interest is the annual participation and sometimes domination by three-time Kentucky Derby winning trainer and Hall-of-Famer Bob Baffert. The trainer has won the Cash Call a record six times and will again be loaded for this year's race with a quartet of 2-year-olds. He sends CARVING, winner of 3 of 4 starts, most recently in the Real Quiet Stakes. TITLE CONTENDER, a maiden winner who was last seen leading the Breeders' Cup Juvenile field to the far turn before fading to eighth. REALLY MR GREELY, a wire to wire winner in last month's G3 Hollywood Prevue Stakes, is also in the race, as well as DEN'S LEGACY winner of the Generous Stakes here at Hollywood Park last out.
Todd Pletcher is another conditioner who annually possesses a bevy of 2-year-olds. Pletcher is stocked with at least a half-dozen horses, including Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner Shanghai Bobby, that will attempt the journey to Louisville. A member of that contingent shipped in for this race is VIOLENCE. The colt followed up his winning Saratoga debut back in August with a sharp score in the G2 Nashua Stakes at Aqueduct last month.
2012 Kentucky Derby trainer, Doug O'Neill, brings HE'S HAD ENOUGH. The 2-yr old showed very little going into the Breeders' Cup Juvenile, yet nearly emerged the winner following all sorts of traffic problems.
Others to Watch:
FURY KAPCORI, runner-up in the Real Quiet Stakes, was also a nice looking stakes winner in the one-mile Charlie Palmer Futurity at Fresno. He hails from the barn of Jerry Hollendorfer. DIRTY SWAGG, trained by Myung Kwon Cho, had a good third-place effort in that same Real Quiet Stakes, but the maiden winner has been well beaten in two previous attempts in graded company.
Another participant from the Real Quiet Stakes, 4th place finisher SIMON EYES, represents the barn of trainer Wesley Ward. The effort was the juvenile's first venture going a route of ground.
LITTLE JERRY made his racing debut at this very distance here last month and turned it into a winning effort for conditioner Richard Baltas.
D.Wayne Lukas sends OXBOW, a seven-furlong maiden winner last month at Churchill Downs.
Adding to the uniqueness of the Cash Call is the artificial Cushion Track material that makes up the main track at Hollywood Park. However, any plans to take the Southern California road to Kentucky means racing over a conventional dirt surface as Santa Anita offers up their winter prep races over dirt leading up to the Derby. Therefore, any dirt-challenged winner of the Cash Call will likely be exposed sooner or prepare for the Kentucky Derby over synthetic surfaces at Keeneland and/or Turfway Park.
No matter, one potential star will enter the Hollywood Park winner's circle Saturday victorious in the Cash Call and the winning horse is sure to move up near the top of many Kentucky Derby 2013 lists of contenders. Winter Future Books will be adjusted and for some, rosy dreams will begin to bloom.
Hi, my name is Nick Costa a.k.a. Trackman. As for my "nickname" of Trackman, it came about the following way: When people, either friends or family would inquire as to where I was going, my reply was always the same, "I'm going to the track man." I was born and raised in Niagara Falls, New York, about a 30 minute drive from the racetrack, in Fort Erie, Canada. I was five years old the first time I attended the races. My father, who was a regular at the track, took me to Fort Erie. My first recollections were of just running up and down the stairs to and from our grandstand seats and the walking ring. Of course, after viewing the horses, I would run back up the stairs, and tell my father who to bet. He would look at me quizzically, and then proceed to place a $2 dollar wager on my selection for me. Through the years, with continuous trips to Fort Erie, and also to Woodbine and the now defunct Greenwood, my father would take the time to explain all the information in the Daily Racing Form. After I learned the basics of handicapping, I never met a racing Form I didn't like. If I had spent as much time on my studies as I did reading the Form, I probably could be sitting on the Supreme Court. Those early horse playing days have lasted into my adulthood, as I still play the races today on a regular basis. But now I have added a couple of new dimensions. First, I officially became a licensed thoroughbred race horse owner back in 2000, fulfilling a dream come true. Fort Erie, where I mostly play the races and race my horses, is still my favorite track. It's my home track, where I fell in love with everything about the sport. In addition to the tracks mentioned that I visited with my father, I have graced the grounds of Churchill Downs (Derby 134 and several Breeders' Cups), Saratoga, Mountaineer, Gulfstream Park, Sam Houston Race Track, Presque Isle, Monmouth Park and Belmont Park. Second, I started to write a few years ago when I started my own blog, called Triple Crown Chase.
The blog was established to provide some personal insight about the horses and trainers who compete against one another in the 3 yr old prep races leading up to the Kentucky Derby. I preview and review the preps races and extend coverage to include the Preakness and Belmont. Last year, my blog previewed the Canadian Triple Crown races for the first time. The second leg, The Prince Of Wales Stakes, is run at my home track of Fort Erie. I am honored and thrilled to be on board with Horse Racing Nation and I want to thank everyone for their support.

Tower Hamlets Labour Group has branded as "bizarre" objections to plans targeting improvements to cycling infrastructure across the borough.
At a meeting last week, representatives for Tower Hamlets First (THF) rejected its support for the London Cycling Campaign's Space for Cycling initiative - although the group had given the thumbs-up during election period.
By Giles BroadbentRacked by weariness and relief, the new Mayor of Tower Hamlets wept. He was hurt, he said, by accusation that he was racist, that he was a disciple of division.

It is pronounced "TORIINA". (Consonants are pronounced more or less the same way as in English. "A" sounds like a in father, but shorter. "I" sounds like ee in meet, but shorter. "O" sounds like o in old. Double vowels like "II" are held for twice the duration of single vowels.)

My husband and I went with the imperial pavers. They were priced a bit lower than the Stand EP henry. & way lower than techo blocks. The salesmen said they do not contain the color all the way through the block that is why they are a lesser price. I've been pleased with them. |
