italian mafia tattoo
that is higher or has more power? The mafia … or blood?
as one who could remove it, or whose superior if that is the word … Mafia (think Italian do you see in sorpranos, good guys and godfather) or blood? and if your blood has a tattoo of a B on the inside of his right hand?
More structured and organized? I would say The Mafia. But not as powerful more. families have achieved significant and splintered by the FBI crime bosses are dead or in jail. Do not think that watching the Sopranos is an indication of how powerful they are. Street gangs are more violent these days, but are not organized. And you said Bloods, Crips, but what? Only in the East Coast Bloods are not large numbers. In California, the Crips outnumber Bloods more than 2 to 1. But you can not say, because of all the fake gangster rappers as being a 'popular Blood "(Lil' Wayne, Cam'ron, etc.) California Bloods have to" more bang hard, "because some of the Crips Blood / Piru area could be surrounded by 2,3, or 4 different Crip" sets.

Sensory Processing Activities For Kids: Playing With Colored Spaghetti

Children with sensory processing disorder (SPD) benefit from sensory integration activities. These are great for kids on the autism spectrum. One befeficial type of activity is one that develops motor skills.
Sensory processing activities for kids should be exciting. Colored Spaghetti is a fun activity for all kids and is very easy to do.
Colored Spaghetti Sensory Activity
- Spaghetti
- Food Color
- Cooking oil
- Containers of different sizes and shapes
- Kitchen utensils (tongs, large spoons, spatula, etc.)
- Towels
How to:
- Cook spaghetti according to the instructions
- Allow to cool
- Divide into containers of different sizes and/ or shapes. Add a tablespoon of cooking oil to prevent sticking.
- Spread out the containers in an area that can be easily cleaned.
- If your child is old, enough allow him/her to put several drops of food coloring in each container. If not you can do this. Stir each color well until desired color is reached.
- Allow your child to enjoy and experiment.
Things to try:
Put more than one color in a container and see what it creates. (visual stimulation)
Use the tongs to pick up spaghetti (fine motor skills)
Mix up the colored spaghetti (visual stimulation & motor skills)
Transfer spaghetti to other containers using utensils (hand-eye coordination)
Mix up with fingers (tactile stimulation)
The beauty of this exercise is that it accomplishes a lot without costing a lot. It requires simple preparation and does not require much cleanup. You can try different kinds of pasta for an infinite number of variations.
This activity develops motor skills and eye-hand coordination, as well as stimulates the visual and tactile senses. Best of all, it's safe.
While we did this outdoors, you can also do this indoors without too much more effort.

Hi everyone,
I am in the process of starting a cake truffle co. My cake truffles will be made from scratch using all natural, mostly organic ingredients. I have decided not to use food coloring, so I will be limited to chocolate and white chocolate for the coating(no candy melts or almond bark). I am curious to know if there is anyone else out there that does not use food coloring. If so, has that negatively impacted your business? I see so many beautiful cake truffles in many different colors and I am starting to think that this may hinder my business.
Just to give some background, my target market will be people that are conscious about the foods they eat( eat organic, non-GMO, etc).

Wilderness Dreams (eBook): The Call of Scotland's Last Wild Places

To download this eBook, simply 'Add to basket' and pay at the Checkout as normal. Don't forget to download Digital Editions too, if you don't already have it.
This book has been a long time in the writing. While Mike Cawthorne's life over the last two decades has been mostly involved in climbing and journalism, he has managed to stow away a large memory bank of experiences of his times spent deep within the wilderness areas of Scotland. These eight extended essays begin with a canoe trip down the River Dee in 2002 ("Tale of Two Rivers") and his epic round of the Munros in the company of his friend Dave Hughes in 1986 ("Paupers and Kings"). "Terra Ingognita" deals with the Monadliath mountains, 'one of the last places left on these crowded islands where you can experience genuine solitude'. "Crofting on the Edge" deals with people Mike has encountered who have chosen to live in the most remote and inaccessible areas of Scotland as does "The Hermit's Story", which describes the life that James McRory-Smith chose to lead in Strathailleach, a shepherd's cottage near Cape Wrath. "A Last Wild Place" describes the ruination of many of these wilderness areas and the efforts made by large energy companies to exploit these special places. '...only wilderness if you can be killed and eaten' is a quote by American writer Edward Abbey referring to grizzly bears stalking humans in the Rockies. Mike recalls this in "Dying for Trees" as he spends a day on Creag Meagaidh with a deer-stalking party where a minor bio-diversity miracle has taken place by carefully controlling deer numbers to allow the spread of broadleaf woodland. "Scotland's Alaska" is the final essay on Sutherland's flow country...'the best and worst of wild Britain.'

So this flaw should be plugged with the next update. After an exploit is publicized, speed of patching becomes important, but at least this one was not found "in the wild", but rather by researchers.

Local sheriff's authorities were left scratching their heads Wednesday night after a drunken man crashed a stolen car through a remote gate at a Castaic jail, sped through the complex and out the main gate, then fled the scene after plowing into another car only to be arrested blocks away.
"Every day's different," county Sheriff's Sgt. Darren Harris said of the incident.
Around 7:30 p.m., Harris said the approximately 23-year-old Hispanic man – who refused to give authorities his name – drove a silver, late-model Honda Civic through the unmanned north gate of the North County Correctional Facility. The gate is located on a remote street near the Castaic Animal Shelter.
The man apparently sped through the jail complex and was spotted driving out of the facility's main gate by a custody assistant who was leaving for the day.
Harris said the assistant followed the man, and at the same time called the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station on his cell phone, reporting the incident and the license plate number on the car.
The Civic was listed as a stolen car from somewhere in the Los Angeles Police Department's jurisdiction, Harris said, and a call was put out to local deputies.
He said the custody assistant followed the driver for a short time before losing sight of him. Shortly after that, deputies received a call of a traffic collision at the intersection of Dickason and Smyth drives in Valencia, involving a car matching the description of the one leaving the jail.
Deputies responded to the scene to find the Civic – with its front end mangled – abandoned after crashing into a late-model Honda Accord driven by Monique Palmera of Valencia.
Palmera said she had just left the Paseo Club and was going home.
When she pulled out of the recreation club's parking lot on Dickason Drive around 7:45 p.m., she said the Civic seemed to come out of nowhere, crashing into the driver's side of her car. She suffered minor cuts.
Palmera said the man driving the Civic got out of the car, clutched his chest and fell to the ground, before fleeing the scene.
When deputies arrived at the scene of the crash, Harris said they began searching the surrounding area, aided by a sheriff's helicopter. In the car, deputies found a half-empty bottle of liquor and an undetermined amount of .38 caliber bullets, he said.
Meanwhile, a sheriff's detective spotted the suspect near the intersection of avenues Rockefeller and Mentry, and though uncooperative, the man was arrested without a struggle. He was positively identified by the witnesses from the scene of the collision, Harris said.
The man will face charges of felony vandalism and unauthorized entry to the jail property, felony drunken driving, felony hit and run, and grand theft auto, Harris said.
During the course of the incident, the jail was put on lockdown and a final inmate count at 8:55 p.m. determined none was missing.
Harris said it was unknown why the man entered the jail property.

Re: Full Keel Vs. Fin or Modified Full Keel
I am not sure whether you are talking about rolling in a short chop taken abeam or larger breaking waves. In either case, it depends on the specific design of the boat, its loading, and the shape of the wave in question. In a chop abeam, there will be situations were each type would be superior but a long keel with cut away forefoot would generally be worse in all cases. Iin a large, breaking wave taken abeam, except a long keel with cut away forefoot, the reality is that each keel type has benefits and liabilities.
The case is often made that a full keel is safer in a roll situation since it is typically shallower than most other keel types and so experiences less wave surface sheer forces (the force that results from the difference in speed between the water on the surface of the wave and in the center of the wave). But full keels generally have a lot of side area and does not stall so that area tends to generate a lot more rolling force even if the wave sheer speed difference is smaller. Typically full keel boats have smaller form stability so they have less force trying to initially roll them into conformance with the wave face (good) but that same lack of form stability means that there is less force trying to right them in the trough (bad). Traditional full keel boats tend to have large roll moments of intertia which resists rolling the boat at the start of the incident (good), but which may tend to cause them to continue rolling at the trough (bad) and since the roll moment of interia often comes from heavy spars, that tendency gets amplified (bad).
Probably the best choice in a large breaking wave taken abeam would be a keel-centerboarder with the board up. It would have a shallow keel and so would experience the least wave surface sheer, and has a small side area so the combined side forces would be smaller as well.
The deeper fin typically has a lower vertical center of gravity and a smaller area working in its favor. But being deeper the fin keel is exposed to a greater speed difference between the wave face and bottom of the keel due to sheering of the wave face. Mitigating against that higher speed is the tendency of deep fins to stall at large angles of attack which by definition a wave abeam would be. Then there is role of roll moment of inertia. Fin keels especially with a bulb when combined with the typically taller rig on a modern design produces proportionately high roll moments of inertia which would initially minimize the induced roll angle.
Probably the worst option is a long keel with cut away forefoot and an attached rudder is the worst option being deeper than a full keel but unable to stall as easy as a deep fin, and with a higher vertical center of gravity. All bad...

.- Four months after Hurricane Katrina ravaged the U.S. Gulf Coast, forcing residents and businesses out of the city of New Orleans, the local Archdiocese is reporting that most of its major offices and personnel are up and running within the city.
While the Archdiocese's administrative offices won't be habitable until at least mid-February, the offices of Incarnate Word Parish in Carrollton have become a meeting point for many of the displaced church services.
Archbishop Alfred Hughes, along with auxiliary bishop Robert Morin, have been operating out of residences on the grounds of Notre Dame Seminary.
Immediately following the hurricane, the Archdiocese of New Orleans was forced to temporarily move its offices to nearby Baton Rouge.
Many breathed a sigh of relief, following the disaster, when Katrina's wrath failed to seriously damage the city's historic St. Louis Cathedral--located near the French Quarter.
Mass has been celebrated in the church since October 2nd.
With administrative offices scheduled to open in February and the chancery in April, officials are confident--and faithful relieved--that the Archdiocese has firmly rooted its presence back in the heart of a still broken city.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Tara!
Facts about Tara
- Breed: Collie/Chow Chow Mix
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Tara's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Tara was rescued out of the pound in Miami and now she is ready to find her wonderful family--She was adopted from my rescue a year ago but now the owner with tears in her eyes must give Tara up--Health problems and she must move --Tara gets along with all other dogs and loves cats and Kids--She is only 4 years old and full of love and life--Please we need to help Tara or she will end up back at the pound and most likely die there for they have too many-So many must die--954-626-0708
Other Pets at Death Row Dog Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Tara, a Hollywood Collie/Chow Chow dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Collie/Chow Chow for sale in Hollywood, or seeking a Collie/Chow Chow dog from a breeder in Hollywood.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Hollywood already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Hollywood breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Collie/Chow Chow breeders who help with Collie/Chow Chow rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Hollywood paves the way for another one to be saved.

I was wandering around the studio,looking for inspiration on what to use to reinforce my mirror.I know it'll need something,esp something to attach the hanger to.Guess what came to my eye?OK,no takers,so I'll tell ya.
When drywallers finish corners,they first put up a metal lath,then finish over it.Our builder left a bunch.They appear to be what the doctor ordered.I can bend them,cut them and I can attach brackets to them so that when finished the mirror piece can be hung up. I say "appear" to suit;haven't tried as yet.Wondering who out there in Forum Land might have played with it.I'm sure Peak would have,but how about the rest of you?Anyone? Thanks for any responses.

No, I haven't tried that. Good idea, But it rusts. Let us know how it works. What I would try would be 2 stainless steel eye bolts with a nut threaded on the end. Just embed that nut and stem into the concrete/tufa and you can put a picture wire between 2 of them to hang the mirror. You can bend the eye some so it sticks out of the tufa and the stem is parallel to the frame more. |
I just bought some brass chain at the hardware store @ $1.00/ft. It's very flexible and strong. I thought I'd slit some drywall tape and put the chain ends through it and cover with crete. I plan on using a 6" piece for each hanger. |

I have had success using diamond mesh/lath which is very similar to what you are proposing, Rick. Not only is it good for reinforcing the whole piece, you can thread the wire you plan to use to hang the piece either side of the back, twist it around the mesh to secure it, lay it so that it is half way between the front and back of the piece and then add the rest of the concrete leaving the wire exposed (duh). The wire is then firmly embedded in the piece with nothing showing on the back but the wire. Use a stouter wire, or multiple strands wound together, than you think necessary since, with this method, replacing it should the wire ever break would not be an option. I've had great luck doing it this way. Never a broken wire. |

Thanks for the comments.For my heavier pieces,I've been using aircraft cable that's rated for breaking at 1150 lbs!!Yet its quite slim.And not too expensive.I bury the sucker at least 3 inches into the mix,and the free ends are around a piece of 1/2 inch coper pipe.I gues I'm doing "eternity"hangers,eh?

Gear Question
I've never bought a sessions jacket before,...
I've never bought a sessions jacket before, what size would fit me? I'm 6' 140 lbs and I don't want it to be overly baggy.
If you wear it for shredding, once you put on a couple layers underneath a large will fit you normally. Size Large will also allow you to wear it around town without looking like you're wearing Shaq's hoodie. You say you don't want it "overly baggy," but if you want it a little baggy go with the XL.

Australian clergyman barred from entering Singapore
Published on Nov 11, 2012 1:39 PM
An Australian clergyman was barred from entering Singapore last week, as he "has interfered in Singapore's domestic politics", the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said in a statement today.
Mr James Minchin arrived in Singapore from Australia on Nov 7, and was turned back at Changi Airport.
In August last year, while on a social visit to Singapore, he spoke at a political forum "where he alleged that the rule of law was bypassed and corrupted in Singapore, and questioned the independence and integrity of the judiciary," said MHA.
But he did not have a permit to speak.

I'm in zone 10 and many of my tulip and narcissus plantings have now gone through yellowing of the leaves. If I plan to plant other things in the area, is it proper to dig them up now and store in my garage over the summer in the original perforated bag until it's time for the 6-8 week chilling before replanting? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Since the foliage has yellowed, it is the proper time to dig them for storage. Not being sure just how hot your garage gets there in zone 10, it 'may' be a bit too hot for them. Mesh bags, like onions or potatoes come in, would allow the bulbs to get more air (less chance of rot), or even placing then in a single layer (or thin anyway) in a cardboard 'flat' would be fine also. The perforated bag may be fine, but some are paper with holes in them, and other are plastic with holes in them. Neither would be as good, imho as the mesh bags or boxes I suggested. chemocurl...aka Sue |
Sue, What about one of those lingerie bags you wash hosiery or delicate undergarments in that has holes? I don't buy an potatoes or onions in mesh bags. Can such bags be purchased in any catalogue? |
- Posted by donnabaskets 7b-8 MS (My Page) on Wed, May 25, 11 at 12:45
Just to be clear, you do not HAVE to dig them and store them. You can just gently plant your annuals in between the bulbs and they'll all co-exist together. And yes, lingerie bags will be fine. I dug a bunch last year and stored them over the summer for fall planting and I just spread them out in a single layer on newspapers in my basement. They did great. The key is to keep them dry (airy) and cool. |

US envoy's visit may spell out Kurds' postwar fate
The arrival of Zalmay Khalilzad in northern Iraq comes at a pivotal time for Kurdish leaders.
A senior US diplomat has entered the autonomous Kurdish region in northern Iraq to discuss the shape of a future Iraqi administration with opponents of President Saddam Hussein.
Zalmay Khalilzad, President Bush's envoy to the Iraqi opposition, was expected to arrive Tuesday in Salahuddin, the mountain resort headquarters of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, which controls the Western part of an autonomous zone protected by US and British warplanes.
Mr. Khalilzad's presence - on Iraqi soil, alongside members of the Iraqi opposition, and just as a US military buildup nears a state of readiness - provides further evidence of the Bush administration's determination to unseat Mr. Hussein.
But to the chagrin and dismay of some opposition members, the US has indicated in recent weeks that they will have a less-than-triumphant role in whatever administration the US prepares to replace the Iraqi dictator.
Rarely has an American diplomat been awaited with such a combination of frustration and neediness. Khalilzad was originally expected a week ago, but delays, attributed to snowstorms first in the US and then in Turkey, kept him away.
Politics may have slowed him down as well, since the US has been negotiating in recent days to finalize a deal on military cooperation with Turkey. Turkish and US officials may have wanted to conclude their agreement - which will likely include plans for Turkish troops to enter the Kurdish autonomous zone - before Khalilzad began his consultations here.
Unable to convene without the US envoy, the Iraqi opposition members have had to content themselves with "informal" meetings in which they have fretted over reports that the US, should it indeed go to war against Iraq and remove Hussein from power, will initially appoint a US general as the country's ruler. Such a system would largely sideline the Iraqi opposition, which has had visions of putting together a government-in-waiting that could take over after Hussein goes.
Most of the opposition - and particularly the Kurds - are also angry at the prospect of Turkish troops entering Iraqi territory. The Americans "owe it to the opposition to explain things," says an avowedly frustrated Kurdish official who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Now as in the past, the opposition is contending with perceptions that it is irrelevant. "The opposition is a fabrication," says Abdullah Alyawi, a historian at Salahuddin University in Arbil."America itself will decide the future of Iraq."

The smallest man on the court packed the biggest punch.
Whenever Oregon needed a big play down the stretch, it turned to starting point guard Johnathan Loyd and got the ball in his hands. Generously listed at 5-foot-8 on GoDucks.com, Loyd played his best in the overtime period, scoring eight points in the final 2:33 of the game to lead Oregon to a 115-105 victory over Ole Miss in Oxford, Miss.
Overall, Loyd was one of two Ducks with a double-double in the game as he scored 23 points and added a career-high 15 assists while Mike Moser finished with 24 points (22 coming after halftime) and 10 rebounds.
Six of the seven Ducks who scored in the game put up at least 10 points with Joseph Young adding 19, Elgin Cook with 14, Damyean Dotson finishing with 13 and Jason Calliste with 10.
Ole Miss gave Oregon everything it could handle, coming back from being down six in the final minute of regulation to having a chance to win it at the end. With 11 seconds in regulation, Marshall Henderson, who scored a career-high 39 points, hit a three-pointer to cut the Oregon lead to 88-86. Loyd was immediately fouled and sent to the foul line but only made one of two free throws, keeping the Rebels within striking distance. Then, with .08 seconds left on the clock, Jarvis Summers hit a three-pointer over Loyd to send the game into overtime.
Fifteen seconds into the overtime period, Young notched a steal and layup, but the lead was short-lived for Oregon as Derrick Millinghaus knocked down a three-pointer, putting the Rebels back in front.
After a Young missed shot, Henderson went 1-for-2 from the line. Ole Miss lead by two in the raucous Tad Smith Coliseum. Then, the momentum violently shifted Oregon's way. The Ducks went on an 11-0 run to take a commanding 102-93 lead with 1:09 to play. Moser contributed four points over that span while Young knocked down a big three-pointer off a Cook steal.
Ole Miss kept fighting, knocking down three three-pointers in the final minute, but the Ducks went 13-for-14 from the free throw line during that stretch to clinch the game.
"We dug in and fought hard. They made some shots and that's adversity but we fought through it," Loyd said in his postgame interview with ESPNU after the game. "This is a hostile environment. We fought through a lot of hostility but it can't get any worse than this."
The game began well for Ole Miss with the Rebels taking the early 7-2 lead just over two minutes into the game, but Oregon respond with a 19-9 run over the next seven minutes to take its first lead of the game at 18-16, the final three points coming on a three-pointer by Calliste.
The Rebels regained the lead, 24-23, just prior to the seven-minute mark and would extend the lead to four on a Henderson three-pointer, one of his 10 made threes, but the Ducks cut the deficit to one heading into halftime.
The second half began with teams exchanging baskets and the Rebels' lead never growing to more than five points. Trailing by four at the eight-minute mark, the Ducks went on a 12-4 run over the next three-and-a-half minutes to take a 72-68 lead.
Oregon added to that lead and was up 88-83 before Henderson and Jarvis' three-pointers sent the game into OT. Henderson nearly connected on a buzzer-beating three directly after Jarvis' make with .08 left (the Ducks turned over the ball over on the inbound pass following Jarvis' game-tying shot), but the Ducks escaped the scare.
The Ducks have the week off from games in order to take care of business in the classroom with finals week ahead. They return to action Saturday, Dec. 14 when they play Illinois at the Moda Center in Portland. Tip-off is at 6 p.m.

Tata Group Chairman Ratan Tata has accused the BJP of having many flaws in their policy and believes that their policy bombs the most. He gave this statement just day after he first accused A Raja for favoring a certain set of telecom companies and working for their welfare, and being unfair to some of the telecom companies.
He has alleged Rajya Sabha MP Rajeev Chandrasekhar, while replying to an open letter to him.
There had been as many as three major flip flops NTP 1999, WLL 2001 and UASL 2003 during the BJP rule. Two of which WLL 2001 and UASL 2003 helped the country to get rid of the cartels, and played a major role in attaining
700 million subscribers.
Tata had major problems by how some firms like Bharti (he did not take names) got the 2G spectrum at the price levels of 2001 not proving to be fair price for the rest of its competitors.
Tata was firm in his letter and accused BJP of having the most flip flops in the telecom are during their rule and further accused of Chandrasekhar of being a lobby himself.

Puck Daddy
Watch 6-year-old boy slap shot loose tooth out of mouth (Video)
Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy6 hrs agoLike many six-year-olds, little Alex is losing his baby teeth.
Like any hockey player, he knows losing a Chiclet on a slap shot is a rite of passage.
So with some parental supervision -- and kids, don't try this at home without some -- Alex combined his passion for the game with some amateur dentistry and yanked his own tooth out.
By tying it "super tight" to a puck and then firing the disc at the goal.
(Has Shea Weber considered this as a side job?)
According to his father, the experiment was a success, and Alex now has an official hockey smile. And, not for nothing, an incredible hockey set-up in his basement. Things have come a long way since Sidney Crosby fired pucks at a washer/dryer.
Question is, does this moment put him on the road to becoming an oral surgeon or winning the shot accuracy contest at the 2030 NHL All-Star Game?
NHL All-Star rookies thrown into spotlight Sunday
Josh Cooper at Puck Daddy17 hrs agoCOLUMBUS, Ohio – Florida defenseman Aaron Ekblad sat on the Team Toews bench at the 2015 NHL All-Star Game and started to get a little nervous. There was such anxiousness in the 18-year-old's body that he started to shimmy a little.
"I was sitting on the bench getting the shakes a little bit. I was trying not to try too hard," he said. "That's kind of like the thing to do almost. It is hard to do. I got chirped a little bit for trying too hard."
An All-Star Game for a first year player is tough. You want to play at your regular season pace. You want to look good in front of your boyhood heroes. You don't want to embarrass yourself. But really, it's just a glorified exhibition.
"That was like summertime hockey," Ekblad later said.
With several players pulling out at the last minute before the mid-winter classic/sponsor-fest, there were few replacements close and available. So the league had to add its pool of rookies it originally designated for the Saturday skills competition.
Tavares, Voracek enjoy record-tying All-Star nights despite missing out on MVP
Sean Leahy at Puck Daddy18 hrs agoCOLUMBUS, Ohio — We need a recount! Just as Latvians and Chicago Blackhawks fans voted in droves for the NHL All-Star Game starting six, Columbus Blue Jackets fans inside Nationwide Arena on Sunday did the same for Ryan Johansen.
Even though Johansen and Team Foligno lost 17-12 to Team Toews, the Blue Jackets forward (four points) won Most Valuable Player honors after an in-arena Twitter vote. He's the first losing player to take home the car since Daniel Briere and his five-point night in 2007. He's also the first player since Alex Kovalev in 2009 to win the award in front of the home fans.
But if there are two fanbases who might have some beef with the results it's those of the New York Islanders and Philadelphia Flyers. John Tavares joined Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Vincent Damphousse, Mike Gartner and Dany Heatley as the only players with four goals in an All-Star Game. Voracek, meanwhile, tied Lemieux's All-Star record of most points with six with a hat trick and three assists.
Alex Ovechkin's heartwarming reason for wanting NHL All-Star Game car
Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy18 hrs agoCOLUMBUS, Ohio – Alex Ovechkin wanted a car in Columbus this weekend. Badly.
He lobbied to be the last pick in the NHL All-Star Fantasy Draft on Friday, as the "Mr. Irrelevant" for each team was given a brand new Honda – a campaign hilariously chronicled on his Instagram feed, including a hand-written sign that read "I WANT TO BE LAST. I NEED A CAR."
Alas, he was picked second to last.
On Sunday, he vowed to win the Most Valuable Player in the NHL All-Star Game, a wild affair that saw a new record established for goals scored in a game with 29.
Alas, he finished with three assists, but his linemate and local fan favorite Ryan Johansen won the car.
"I'm not disappointed," said Ovechkin. "There's going to be a couple surprises."
Columbus cannon causes havoc during 2015 NHL All-Star Game
Josh Cooper at Puck Daddy18 hrs agoCOLUMBUS, Ohio – Imagine you're at the 2015 NHL All-Star Game at Nationwide Arena. You're sitting down, about to have a nice cold soda. You put the straw to your lips. Team Foligno scores a goal! You hear AC/DC come on the loudspeakers … "For those about to rock …" (BOOM) a fake cannon blast sound fills the entire building.
You're shocked. You're scared. You almost had a heart attack. The soda? All over your recently cleaned shirt. Oh the humanity.
This is something that actually happens at every Blue Jackets game when the home team scores. But it took extra prevalence Sunday in Team Toews' 17-12 win over Team Foligno.
Even the players in the game seemed to be getting annoyed. Team Toews/Panthers goaltender Roberto Luongo tweeted mid-game that he wanted the cannon to stop.
The canon has to go @BlueJacketsNHL
Don't worry Bobby Lu … you had many friends in the press box.
"I didn't like the cannon. After a while, you get used to it, but the first few times … yesterday and stuff was a little bit freaked out," Luongo said.
NHL All-Star Game scoring record set in Columbus with 29 goals
Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy20 hrs agoYour browser does not support iframes.
COLUMBUS, Ohio – The 60th NHL All-Star Game was an offensive affair.
Take that any way you'd like.
The teams captained by Jonathan Toews of the Chicago Blackhawks and Nick Foligno of the Columbus Blue Jackets set a new League record for most combined goals in an All-Star Game, in a 17-12 victory for Team Toews on Sunday at Nationwide Arena in Columbus.
Patrick Kane's (Foligno) goal at 13:09 of the third period was No. 27 for the night, breaking the 26-goal record set in 2001 during the North America vs. The World format.
We don't want to say the 29-goal night was overwhelming, but at one point the Civil War-dressed workers that fire a cannon after every home-team goal seemed to simply forget to do so. Maybe they ran out of ammo; the teams certainly didn't.
John Tavares of Team Toews became the sixth player in history to score four goals in the NHL All-Star Game. Tavares scored once in the first period, twice in the second and another in the third period.
Watch John Tavares' dazzling goal in NHL All-Star Game (Video)
Jen Neale at Puck Daddy21 hrs agoJohn Tavaras just cost Kevin Shattenkirk the Norris Trophy.
Ok, maybe that's a little too severe of a conclusion considering it's was a scoring play in the All-Star Game.
Puck handling against Shattenkirk as he crossed the blue line, Tavares dangles the puck behind his skate, brings it back to the front, skates around the front of the net and fires a wrister at Carey Price from an awkward angle. At first the announcers thought Price made an unconventional semi-pad stack/turtle on its shell save, but alas, Tavares had scored.
The video is way better than words can express:
The goal tied the game at 4-4 with 57-seconds left in the first period. The camera caught the New York Islanders captain enjoying the replay of his goal from the bench and the look on his face is about as magical as his puck handling.

Puck Daddy's 2015 NHL All-Star Game Live Chat!
Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy23 hrs agoIt's the 2015 NHL All-Star Game from Columbus and the Yahoo Sports crew is here to chat it up!
Team Foligno vs. Team Toews!
But the real intrigue is with some of the first timers at the game.
Twelve 2015 NHL All-Stars are under age 25. Thirty-two of the 41 players have yet to celebrate their 30th birthday. The youngest 2015 NHL All-Stars are 18-year-old Aaron Ekblad (2/7/96) and 20-year-old Filip Forsberg (8/13/94). Ekblad will be the second 18-year-old to skate in the past three NHL All-Star Games, following Jeff Skinner in 2011 in Raleigh, N.C.
So join the Puck Daddy crew and your Yahoo Sports friends for all the action at 5 p.m. ET.
O.A.R. looks to bring the party to the NHL All-Star Game
Josh Cooper at Puck Daddy1 day agoCOLUMBUS, Ohio – The issue was subtly brought up to O.A.R. drummer Chris Culos in a side room at the Greater Columbus Convention Center on Sunday morning.
A reporter told him that the band should turn into the NHL's official big event performers.
"I'm with you, lets do this!" Culos said.
If this could only happen, it would be tremendous.
The NHL is known for bizarre musical acts that are way past their primes. From Chaka Khan at the 2009 NHL Awards to the disaster this year at the Winter Classic of Lee Greenwood who played his one song that nobody likes unless you're a real 'Merican.
Billy Idol was cool … just because he was Billy Idol, but not because he was that great.
Of course KISS at last year's Dodger Stadium game was pure magic, but that's more an exception than a rule in regards to the NHL and musical accompaniment for signature in-season events.
Does Rick Nash deserve credit for Columbus hockey fan boom?
Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy1 day agoCOLUMBUS, Ohio – In 1997, John H. McConnell gave the city he loved a franchise in a sport he didn't love yet.
"I can't say I'm a fan because we never had hockey here," said McConnell, the steel industry magnate who brokered a deal with the NHL to bring the Columbus Blue Jackets to reality.
But that's how you make hockey fans, right? You bring hockey to them, bring them into the arena, get them hooked on a game whose addictive qualities are a natural fit for a Midwest U.S. town with cold weather and sports obsessions. (See Buckeyes, THE Ohio State University.)
Starting in 2003, Rick Nash was central to that recruiting mission. With due respect to Ray Whitney and Geoff Sanderson, Nash was the first star the franchise had – a hulking forward taken first overall in the NHL Draft, and a player GM Doug MacLean traded up to select.

I am building a replica of a Carolina freight truck. I took the current issue White Frieghtliner and took about 3/4 of an inch out of the cab and frame. I removed all the rivets off the roof and around the side seams. I am replacing them with. The micromark O-scale decal rivets. I have finished the roof and am still working on the sides. The spokes are from the Diamond Reo kit. The first photo is the real truck...

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Lucky, a Houston Labrador Retriever/Retriever (Unknown Type) puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever/Retriever (Unknown Type) for sale in Houston, or seeking a Labrador Retriever/Retriever (Unknown Type) puppy from a breeder in Houston.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Houston already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Houston breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever/Retriever (Unknown Type) breeders who help with Labrador Retriever/Retriever (Unknown Type) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Houston paves the way for another one to be saved.

'Adventure Series' to begin Friday
Citizen Staff Reports 02/27/12
The County of Henrico Division of Recreation and Parks will present its annual Adventure Series in March, featuring slide presentations and speakers celebrating the outdoors. The first two presentations will include speakers discussing their own adventures, and the series will conclude with some short films on mountain culture. The Adventure Series is free for all ages and takes place on March 2, 16 and 23. Locations vary and are listed below, and seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. The series will feature the following presentations: • "Waterwalk: A Passage of Ghosts", Friday, March 2, 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Henrico County Administration Board Room (4301 E. Parham Road, Henrico 23228) – In 1996 Steven Faulkner and his 16 year-old son Justin left the fast world of cars, jobs, schools, televisions, and computers and set out on a 1,000 mile voyage in their 16-foot canoe, Natty Bumpo. They followed the route first taken in 1673 by the early French explorers Joliet and Marquette to discover the Upper Mississippi River. Waterwalk is a journey into the heart of this continent 300 years ago, a modern exploration of the quiet waterways that weave their way through America, and a voyage through the heart of a father-son relationship. Steven Faulkner teaches Creative Writing at Longwood University. A movie based on his book "Waterwalk: A Passage of Ghosts" is being produced by Michigan Blue Lake Productions. • Across the Roof of America presented by Leonard Atkins, Friday, March 16, 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Henrico County Administration Board Room (4301 E. Parham Road, Henrico 23228) – The Continental Divide follows the Rocky Mountains for more than 2,700 miles in the United States and is a part of the National Scenic Trails System. A complete traverse of it demands using maps and compass during cross-country travel, fording glacier melt-swollen streams, ascending 13,000-foot passes, crossing deserts in 100-degree heat, and crashing through thigh-high snow drifts. As Coordinator of the Across the Roof of America Expedition, award-winning local author and renowned hiker Leonard Atkins will share stories and photos as he walked the Continental Divide for six months from Canada to Mexico. • An Evening With Mountainfilm, Friday, March 23, 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. in the Henrico Theatre in Highland Springs (305 E Nine Mile Road, Henrico 23075) – Each year in Telluride, Colorado, Mountainfilm celebrates cultures unique to mountain communities with an international rendezvous of legendary mountaineers, environmentalists, filmmakers, authors, scientists, and artists. The mission of Mountainfilm is to educate and inspire audiences about issues that matter, cultures worth exploring, and environments worth preserving.

Dracula X: Devil's Castle (Castlevania: Rondo Of Blood) review
Castlevania is perhaps a solitary gameplaying experience, and the popularity of the series certainly eludes to a large chunk of the gaming population – let's face it, the somber graphics, the slow, plodding pace, it just isn't Sonic is it? But what it lacks in mainstream appeal, it makes up for in its cult look and feel. Challenging gameplay, masses of levels, brilliant haunting music – these are the kind of things that the more serious player appreciates.

Ocean Breeze Waterpark, which offers free parking, embraces the spirit of the sun-drenched Caribbean, inviting families to come and enjoy more than 30 rides, slides, and attractions. Food stands dish up shrimp po' boys, foot-long sub sandwiches, and ice cream, while complimentary sunscreen and a staff of vigilant lifeguards help ensure that families stay safe and comfortable throughout their visit.
Rides and Attractions
Sea Serpent | Walk the Plank |
350-foot slide that sends guests in tubes flying around high-banking curves and horizontal loops | Thrilling, pitch-black body slide whose final 50-foot drop ends in a splash |
Vortex | Runaway Bay |
Inner tubes swirl around a 30-foot-wide bowl before dropping into the pool below | 1,000,000-gallon wave pool sends swells surging from the deep end toward the shore |
Adventure River | Hook's Lagoon | Each trip around this quarter-mile-long lazy river passes by waterfalls and hopelessly lost icebergs | Multi-level play structure with plenty of opportunities for younger children to climb and clamber |
Julie Fabing Burleson and Suzy Vinson Nettles feel that the kitchen is just another place for kids to flex their creativity. They opened Young Chefs Academy to provide kids aged 3–18 with cooking programs targeted to preschoolers and kindergarteners, elementary schoolers, and older kids ready for trickier techniques and intricate recipes. Regardless of a student's age, he or she is always taught the pillars of home cooking, including how to be safe in the kitchen, how to properly handle and prepare food, how to bake, and how to talk down an oven that constantly overheats. While participating in the entertaining cooking lessons, kids may not even realize that each class also allows them to practice their math, reading-comprehension, and communication skills.
Anticipation. That's arguably the most heart-pounding thing about Griffon, a towering dive coaster and one of the premiere attractions at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Suspense builds right to the top of its 205-foot hill, which sends riders over a cliff-like 90-degree drop. The coaster hurtles down at 75 miles per hour, before it levels out at a splash zone. Beyond these big-kid rides, Busch Gardens Williamsburg caters to youngsters with its KIDsiderate Attractions, such as the Land of Dragons and Sesame Street Forest of Fun. The latter surrounds little ones in playgrounds and kid-friendly rides, along with chances to meet with Sesame Street characters.
For even more entertainment, Busch Gardens Williamsburg also boasts multiple venues for both indoor and outdoor shows such as Night Beats, a musical review featuring glitzy ghouls. Each area of the park also offers shopping and dining to match its region's theme. The theme park also includes several exhibits where nature lovers can learn about animals such as hedgehogs, macaw parrots, and gray wolves.
Kangaroo Jac's is more than just an indoor play center. It's a maze, fortress, playground, slide pavilion, and obstacle course. The catch is that every is inflatable. Meaning sock-clad tykes are free to safely bounce and slide off the walls. Additionally, there is a video arcade with air hockey and a snack bar, plus a parent's lounge with free WiFi.
Kings Dominion boasts family entertainment ranging from thrill rides to kids' areas, a water park, and live entertainment. Over 17 roller coasters and high speed attractions await groups, such as the all new Windseeker, which plants riders on a 301-foot tower in swings that travel up to 30 miles per hour. A Peanuts themed kids' area entertains with Snoopy rides and discount psychiatric advice, while a 20-acre water park includes high-speed water slides, lazy rivers, and dual wave pools. Guests seeking to take a break can sit back to watch live entertainment, or prepare for zombie uprisings with the Kings Dominion annual Halloween Haunt.

Innovation is the cornerstone of the free market system. From the capitalist's viewpoint, the free market is open game to anyone willing to pony up the courage and ideas to improve society in some way. This can be achieved through either bringing brand new products or services to the market, or by improving on an existing product — as in the case of a quieter vacuum — or by releasing a product like the iPhone. By creating and innovating the free market is designed to foster entrepreneurship and push society ever forward.
Today, it can be argued that the United States does not harbor a truly capitalist system. From unnecessary regulations on certain industries to lobbying and colluding efforts by the largest and most powerful companies in the world, there are plenty of issues alive and well within the current American system. But you can't deny that it was by using the capitalist principles of our country's forefathers, and the entrepreneurs and innovators after them, that have propelled the United States into a position of power throughout the years.
Now we're seeing an entirely new industry spring to life right before our very eyes with boundless opportunities for inventors, entrepreneurs, and anyone else that wants a piece of the pie. It's all happening within the still federally outlawed world of marijuana, and things don't look to be slowing down anytime soon.
Despite heavy protests from lobbying groups and certain segments of big business (who feel threatened, more than anything), marijuana looks like it will see sweeping regulatory changes around the country over the coming years. Already made fully legal by voters in two states, medical marijuana markets have been alive and thriving for many years in areas around the country. Inside of these secluded, often maligned industries, people have gotten to work creating new products and devising new ways to use the cannabis plant.
The results are already hitting the markets, in the form of more-refined concentrates, extensive lines of edibles, and more targeted pharmaceutical uses. In fact, this is just the beginning. Wait until hemp makes a comeback to the market. The industrial advantages will be immense.

Washington Exchange Website Stumbles Out Of The Gates
Originally published on Tue October 1, 2013 4:24 pm
It was a rocky start to Obamacare in Washington. The state's new health insurance website is up now, but it was shut down for most of the day because of technical glitches.
Misti Hlavacek set her alarm early to get up and sign up for healthcare. She couldn't wait to log onto wahealthplanfinder.org and select an insurance plan. Instead:
"It just said error, loading page, reload," says Hlavacek.
Hlavacek vented her disappointment on the Exchange's Facebook page: "Boo," she wrote. Hlavacek is unemployed, uninsured and has pre-existing conditions.
"Being able to sign up would have been a huge relief for me and just all that weight lifted off my shoulders," she says.
"The launch could not have gone any worse," says Bharat Shyam, Washington's former chief information officer -- and a big fan of Obamacare. Back in January, he warned in a report that the race to meet an October 1st deadline could result in "major flaws."
"This date was coming for a long time and the launch is just terrible," Shyam says.
An Exchange spokesman called the problems "bumps in the road" and said success would be measured in the coming months, not the first hours.
Deloitte LLP got a $50M contract to build Washington's Exchange.
