Maine is 5-0 on the year and received 34 of 40 first place votes in the USCHO.com/CSTV Division I men's poll and 31 of 34 in the USA Today/America Hockey poll. The Bears moved up from No.4 in both polls last week. Lundin, a 2004 4th round pick, has 1 goal and 2 assists on the year. The defenseman is receiving quality ice time this year as you'd expect from a senior and is a fixture on the power play. He had 3 goals and 13 assists as a junior.
Falcons, Chiefs Player Movement
The Johnstown Tribune-Democrat reports the Springfield Falcons have recalled forward Andre Deveaux after he scored a goal Sunday for the Chiefs at Trenton, and defenseman
Jay Rosehill

the inside of the Pantheon was great. the marble floors, the articulate statues, Raphael is buried in there. It's the outside that I was upset by. My wife and I went during the upswing of tourist season and they still had scaffolds covering literally half of the outside of the building! I was so upset! I flew 6000+ miles to see the spectacle that is the pantheon and it was draped in planks of metal and pvc pipe. So dissappointed.

It was a busy and wonderful day!
Bishop Daniel Thomas offered Mass Thursday morning with over 750 students and staff from St. Peter's, Mansfield St. Mary's, Shelby St. Mary's, Crestline St. Joseph and Bethlehem Sacred Heart Schools.
The Bishop visited with the high school seniors over lunch for a Q&A and then proceeded over to the Franciscan Activity Center to enjoy the basketball game with the priests/seminarians team vs. the eighth graders and high school seniors. The pep band played, the cheerleaders got the crowd cheering, and the priests/seminarians came out the victors! They really showed their basketball skills on the court!
Father Jeremy Miller talked with students during halftime about answering God's call to vocation, possibly becoming a Priest or Sister.
Another special treat was when Director Jim Cox and members of the Theater Department talked with elementary students after lunch about the upcoming musical, "Annie". They performed several songs that will be highlighted on stage during the April performances.
Thank you to everyone, especially Bishop Thomas, for making this day so special.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Make Some Noise Buffalo
by Paul on 01/05/12 at 02:41 AM ET
Comments (0)
from John Vogl of the Buffalo News,
It's been a really quiet hockey season in Buffalo. How quiet?
"Married couples fighting upstairs, you can hear that on the ice," Sabres forward Ville Leino said Wednesday.
Although he was smiling, Leino probably wasn't exaggerating. The low decibel level in First Niagara Center has made it possible for personal conversations to travel across sections filled with fans doing nothing.
The silence may have hit a deafening low during Tuesday's 4-2 victory over Edmonton. The Sabres again got manhandled early, then didn't generate their scoring push until late. Mark Spector, the executive vice president of the Professional Hockey Writers Association, senior columnist for Sportsnet.ca and an Edmonton radio host, noted there was "zero atmosphere" in the rink and seldom had he seen 18,000 people make less noise.
"This [is] a great hockey town," he wrote on Twitter, "but at this point, by far the quietest rink I've been in in 2011-12."

About this design:
This pendant was hand formed from a stoneware clay, bisque fired, glazed and then fired again in a high fire.
The bail is handmade of sterling silver wire. I made this beautiful necklace using round amazonite beads, I individually wrapped each bead securely and meticulously with sterling silver wire to form a chain. The chain is finished with a hand crafted sterling silver eye and hook clasp.

Only Forward - Michael Marshall Smith Read this after a couple of people recommended it in a thread a couple of weeks ago. Quite good, but not brilliant. I really liked the world he created and there was lots of lovely little ideas a la Philip K Dick, but the style he writes in felt a little forced to me - trying to be funny instead of naturally. I also felt there was far too much crucial exposition right at the end in order to explain the finale, which felt like bad writing to me. Overall a fun and easy read, but not a classic. |

Registered 10 years agoI prefer Spares by Smith of his Sci-Fi books. The tone was better for me as it's not trying so hard to be funny. It's a better balance of Sci-Fi and fantasy than Only Forward as well. -
Not read any of his sci-fi stuff actually and kind of gone off him as a writer. Never thought he could equal the genius of his Straw Men trilogy. -

Finally finished the first book. I think I agree with your verdict of "average", although it was interesting enough for me to not completely dismiss the idea of reading the rest of the series. Like a lot of series, the author doesn't really know when to end so it stops very suddenly.

First book - Average.
Speaking of Games of Thrones, I'm nearly 600 pages in and it has only just started to get interesting. I hope the rest of the series improves. I don't mind long books as long as they are interesting, but the author is in serious need of a good editor that cuts out useless crap. I think he hired the same editor as Tom Clancy, someone else who doesn't know where the delete key is on his keyboard
Second book - Superb.
1st book, Vol. 3 - Shite.
2nd book, Vol. 3 - Superb.
4th book/volume - Dire.
I've put the 5th volume aside. I'll read it someday, but I'm in no rush.

Child 44 is rubbish.
Simon Pegg's autobiography, Nerd Do Well.
Haven't quite finished it yet, but I'm finding it really hard, it's difficult, it feels like one big long self indulgent wankfest. yes it is a book about himself, but my god, dumb it down a bit. and it's interspersed with his own science fiction story, which is just dire.
Going back to reading Terry Pratchett books after this for a bit I think. or a book called Child 44. not sure yet. -
i kind of enjoyed child 44. It was just a good page turner and nothing more than that. I probably never read it again, but it was good to pass some time too. -

That said if you're finding the first story linguistically weird, I dread to think what you'll make of one of them.
Felt a slight sense of dissatisfaction with the book as a whole by the end, without trying to give too much away, but I found the strangeness and variation in it kept me going. -
@Lotos8ter the other half's just finished Cloud Atlas and was raving about how good it was. I reckon it might be worth sticking with it. -

I can understand why so many people love this book: a simple to follow story set in a romanticised world with a positive message about achieving your ambitions.
I didn't like it.
It wasn't terrible, but the story was too simplistic, the characters were flat and the book's themes were too preachy and seemed to contradict themselves at several points.
Not recommended, but if you do want to read it to see what all the fuss is about, it is a very easy read, and can be finished in about 2-3 days.

Registered 7 years agomay i recommend the Night Dawn Trilogy by Peter F Hamilton for any sci fi fans out there.
i'm a fan of this author and have read everything he's written but these 3 books were what turned me on to him. ,
it begins with The Reality Dysfunction followed by The Neutronium Alchemist and concludes with The Naked God.
it's a sprawling narrative set in the far future where humans civilisation is galaxy wide and biology is blurred with technology. so far so what you may be thinking and if that's the case you may baulk at the size of the books. each one is over 1200 pages long, normally commercial suicide, but it's an unashamed space opera with horror overtones.
the story is epic, encompassing hundreds of civilizations across thousands of worlds and the cast is vast and surprising (Elvis makes a brief cameo and Al Capone is one of the main antagonists) thanks to the central conceit of the novels:
' I had the idea. The [dead] coming back. After that it's a simple process of extrapolation. Why do they come back? There's a line in the trilogy about devil worshipers praying for centuries for Lucifer to appear, and nothing much seems to have happened. So in this case there has to be another factor introduced, an alien factor. The Ly-cilph were born.
Next, with the basic premise established, the exponential curve of possession sweeping across entire populations, I had to decide what kind of society would stand a chance against such an incursion. It didn't take a lot of thought before I settled on the traditional vast interstellar civilisation that seems to be the defining qualification of Space Opera.' - Peter F Hamilton
Ultimately i'm not doing these books justice and i wish i had the literary skill to properly explain why i enjoyed them so much, however i must advice you that should you chose to read them, because of the voluminous nature of the tale, the first third of The Reality Dysfunction will be slow going and the ending of The Naked God is contentious. -

I love fantasy settings and I liked how this book also hinted at the international politics of war.
It seems to fall directly in between LotR and Game of Thrones in setting and scope. I am pretty certain Elder Scrolls: Oblivion is based on this book.
I fully enjoyed it and would recommend it to people that like fantasy books. I think it is pretty much what Kalel wanted from Game of Thrones.
Looking forward to Silverhorn once I finish my current book (Henrietta Lacks).

The great gatsby F.S FITZGERALD.
Really enjoyed this. The writing (Aside from the first paragraph), is just great and easy to read. He really gets under the skin of who people are, and his quite a vivid writer. It is easy to follow what people are thinking and doing and i love the sudden cutting remarks or actions of certain characters and situations.
His story in a sense as been done to death since, and its quite interesting how in a way theres been a revival of the way the plot unfolds, the characters etc (thinking mad men here, don draper etc).
The middle starts to flounder a little bit ( intentionally), but then suddenly it just unhurls itself into quite a destructive and sad end.
I got a weekend of soon, so i might read it again in one sitting, it not that big a book, and i think it would be better for it as well.
very good. 9/10 -

I finished Kill Screen the other day, it is now my favourite novel* about a game development (pushing JPod into position 2 of 2) although not that much of it is actually about game development, which is probably a good thing.

I read both Only Forward and Gone Away World recently and I thought they were both pretty amazing.
It took me two attempts to get started on the Nights Dawn Trilogy as I really hated Reality Dysfunction first time I tried to read it...I think this was mostly down to that smug shithead of a ship captain. I know some people hated the ending to the series but I thought it was so OTT as to be properly hilarious. I still prefer Pandora's Star and it's sequel, though. -

Chinese oil group PetroChina is buying a stake in a big Canadian shale gasfield for $2.2bn, highlighting Chinese energy companies' growing interest in Canadian resources after the $18bn Cnooc-Nexen deal.
PetroChina, China's biggest oil company by production, will form a joint venture with Encana of Canada that gives the Chinese company a 49.9 per cent stake in Encana's Duvernay lands project in Alberta, an area that contains shale oil and shale gas.
It is the second big overseas deal by PetroChina this week, following its $1.6bn investment in the Browse natural gas project in Western Australia on Wednesday.
China's state-owned oil companies have a mandate to expand their overseas operations at a time when China's oil and gas imports are surging to meet growing domestic demand.
Canada has been a magnet for Chinese energy investment thanks to its rich resources, open foreign investment climate and stable regulatory environment.
Analysts say that trend is set to accelerate after the Canadian government gave its blessing last week to Cnooc's acquisition of Nexen, a Canadian oil company with assets around the world. The deal, which is still awaiting approval from US regulators, is the biggest overseas acquisition by a Chinese company.
The Canadian approval sent a reassuring signal to investors about the country's openness to foreign takeovers.
However, Stephen Harper, Canada's prime minister, also set out a new policy on acquisitions by foreign state-controlled companies such as PetroChina and Cnooc, which puts new obstacles in the path of such deals, and bans them altogether in the oil sands of western Canada.
The Nexen takeover should not be seen as "the beginning of a trend, but rather the end of a trend", Mr Harper said.
"To be blunt, Canadians have not spent years reducing the ownership of sectors of the economy by our own governments, only to see them bought and controlled by foreign governments instead."
Asset deals such as PetroChina's latest purchase from Encana are unlikely to be blocked under the new rules, analysts believe.
Natural gas, shale gas and deepwater fields have become priorities for China's oil majors as they try to acquire the expertise needed to tap shale and deepwater fields at home.
Neil Beveridge, oil analyst at Bernstein in Hong Kong, said PetroChina's investment in the Duvernay project would give it experience in developing "very deep shales" that are similar to China's own deposits.
Randy Eresman, chief executive of Encana, said the new joint venture would enable the company to "accelerate the pace at which the full production potential of our Duvernay lands can be achieved". Encana has drilled nine wells in the Duvernay area and estimates that the area contains 9bn barrels of oil equivalent.
Canadian regulators are considering whether or not the deal will require their review and approval, according to comments emailed to Bloomberg.

US 4926623 A Abstract A mowing apparatus for mowing stalk-like crops independently of rows and conveying the mowed crop to a draw-in-box of a chopper, including two rotating mowing rollers with rigid entrainment fingers, the mowing rollers being arranged laterally in front of the draw-in-box of the chopper, and two rotating wipe-off-rollers provided with wipe-off-fingers and cooperating with the mowing rollers by overlapping of the tip paths of the entrainment fingers and of the wipe-off-fingers, wherein the entrainment fingers are hook-shaped and inclined forward with respect to the radial direction and the wipe-off-fingers having a greater circumference velocity than the entrainment fingers.
Claims(3) 1. A mowing apparatus for moving stalk-like crops independently of rows and for conveying the mowed crop to a draw-in box of a chopper, comprising:
rotatable mowing rollers each having a conical upwardly directed outer shape and rigid entrainment fingers which have tips which define a tip path during rotation of said mowing rollers; and rotatable wipe-off rollers each having a conical downwardly directed outer shape and wipe-off fingers which have tips which define a tip path during rotation of said wipe-off rollers, said wipe-off rollers cooperating with said mowing rollers by an overlapping of the tip paths of said entrainment fingers and said wipe-off fingers, said conically shaped mowing rollers and wipe-off rollers being arranged so as to form a sideways inclined draw-in channel in front of the draw-in box. 2. Mowing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein characterized the mowing rollers are formed by at least a lower entrainment rim (11a) of larger diameter and an upper entrainment rim (11b) of smaller diameter, wherein two entrainment rims (11a, 11b) are connected by a cylinder (12) in such a way that the lower entrainment rim (11a) constitutes a support surface (13).
3. A mowing apparatus for mowing stalk-like crops independently of rows and conveying the mode crop to a draw-in box of a chopper, comprising:
four rotatable mowing rollers arranged side-by-side in front of the draw-in box of the chopper, each of said mowing rollers having entrainment fingers with tips which define a tip path during rotation of said mowing rollers; two rotatable wipe-off rollers each having wipe-off fingers with tips which define a tip passed during rotation of said wipe-off rollers, each of said wipe-off rollers being arranged between two of said mowing rollers so as to cooperate with said two mowing rollers by an overlapping of the tip paths of said entrainment fingers and said wipe-off fingers; and drive means for rotating said moving rollers and said wipe-off rollers so that said wipe-off fingers have a greater circumferential velocity than said entrainment fingers. Description The invention is directed to a mowing apparatus for mowing of stalk-like harvest commodities especially corn, the mowing being performed independently of rows whereby the mowed crop is conveyed to a chopper through draw-in rollers arranged in a draw-in box. Several rotating mowing rollers with rigid entrainment devices are assigned to the draw-in box and cooperate with additional rollers due to overlapping of tip paths of the respective entrainment devices. Such a mowing apparatus is known from the DE-OS 32 26 876, wherein four mowing- and feed or draw-in rollers are arranged across a working width of approximately three meters. The outer mowing- and feed or draw-in rollers guide herein the mowed harvest commodity in a wide arc at first towards the outside along a compartmentation arc supporting the cut-off stalks towards the inner mowing and draw-in roller, which then further conveys the outer stalks by means of long radial entrainment devices together with the inner stalks. Herein guides constitute a respectively separate draw-in channel, in which the stalks of the outer draw-in roller are kept separate from those of the inner draw-in roller. These guides concentrically embracing the draw-in and mowing rollers assume the support of the stalks during their conveyance especially when transmitting the stalks to the inner roller. Apart from the long conveyance travel because of the redirection towards the external side, the increased construction cost is disadvantageous, since each compartmentation or separation tip must be equipped with the guidance brackets respectively projecting beyond the next separation or compartmentation tip. Furthermore, it is disadvantageous that because of the shown twin flow conveyance, the external mowing roller is arranged far from the inner mowing roller and thus in case of a longer working period there results a high nose heaviness and a large overhang towards the front. Furthermore, a mowing apparatus is known from the DE-OS 34 06 551, in which the rigid entrainment devices have been replaced by controlled entrainment fingers. This permits operation without countersupports for the mowed cornstalks, since these can be sufficiently well retained in the hook-shaped entrainment devices during the lateral conveyance and are released for the transfer to the draw-in box. Also, in this case, the increased constructional expense for the plurality of bearing points for the swivelable tines is disadvantageous, as well as the far forward overhang of the draw-in drum in case of greater working widths. Therefore, the invention is based upon the task of providing a mowing apparatus of the above-mentioned type which assures a rapid and dependable transfer and forwarding of the harvested stalks to the chopper while having at the same time a simple and compact construction. This task is solved by outer mowing rollers of the rotating mowing rollers having entrainment devices which are inclined forward in the revolving direction of the rollers, and the additional roller is a wipe-off roller having wipe-off fingers. Because of the forwardly inclined shape of the entrainment devices the stalks are securely grasped and conveyed laterally to the chopper. In the overlapping region with the wipe-off roller the entrainment devices of the mowing roller are "overtaken" by the more rapidly revolving entrainment devices of the wipe-off roller and thus the stalks are removed from the entrainment hook and transferred to the draw-in rollers. Thus there results a rapid material flow without any considerable reorientations and without friction at guides of any sort, which precisely in case of the known solutions often can entail a dropping-out or tumbling of the cornstalks. By doing away with guides or directional controls there results furthermore a lower constructional cost and a shorter constructional length. Since the harvested material is supplied to the chopper by the wipe-off rollers in two flow portions at the sides of the draw-in box, there results already with a twin drum embodiment an additional saving of structural length and weight, since the diameters of the mowing rollers at equal working widths can be chosen to be smaller particularly in the upper region because of the also laterally conveying effect of the wipe-off roller and thus the mowing rollers can extend with their lower largest diameter partially beneath the draw-in box and/or the chopper. In a further embodiment, the rotating mowing rollers having a conical, upwardly directed outer shape and rigid entrainment fingers. The wipe-off roller having a conical, downwardly directed outer shape so that, the upright corn plants are cut off with and are then brought into a rearwardly inclined position by the forward feed of the chopper, wherein they can support themselves against the conical outer surface. At the same time they are grasped by the entrainment devices which are preferably arranged in tandem in circumferential direction and conveyed to the chopper in the inclined position. Because of this the corn plants reach the draw-in rollers in the desired position through the sideways inclined draw-in channel, namely with the cutoff end first, wherein the cornstalks can be drawn-in directly and without a great change in direction in the sense of a good material flow. The novel features which are considered as characteristic for the invention are set forth in parts in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, both to its construction and its method of operation, together with additional objects and advantages thereof, will be understood from the following description of specific embodiments when read in connection with the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 a front view of a mowing apparatus with two mowing rollers and overhung wipe-off rollers FIG. 2 a plan view of FIG. 1 FIG. 3 a plan view of a mowing apparatus with four mowing rollers and two wipe-off rollers FIG. 4 a front view of the mowing device with four mowing rollers and two wipe-off rollers according to FIG. 3. FIG. 1 shows a front view upon the horizontal draw-in rollers 3 (shown in broken lines), which are arranged in the draw-in box 2 of a chopper 1. The corn plants 20 to be harvested are cut off by the mowing rollers 4 by revolving cutters 18 in cooperation with fixed counterknives 19 and are further conveyed towards the center onto the chopper 1 by means of entrainment devices 6a. The entrainment devices 6a which are arranged in several, in this case three, planes of revolution herein support the cornstalk and fixedly retain it because of their inclined shape in the direction of revolution, in the manner of a hook. Because of this shape directed forward compared to the radial direction, a wiping off at a metal plate or similar is not possible, there are provided wipe-off rollers 9, which revolve in the region of the draw-in channel 10 with a higher circumferential velocity than the mowing rollers. In view of this, the entrainment devices 6a are overtaken from behind by the entrainment devices 14 of the wipe-off roller 9 and thus are liberated from the retention of the entrainment devices 6a and are transferred to the draw-in rollers 3. Herein the lower stalk end is lifted approximately into the drawn-in gap 15 and a rapid draw-in operation is achieved by the higher circumferential velocity. The wipe-off rollers 9 are in this case supported in an overhung or cantilevered manner at the driving apparatus 16 and are adapted to the mowing rollers 4 as far as their external shape is concerned as well as being partially covered by the central separator partition 21. FIG. 2 shows the central partition 21 and the edge partition 22 indicated in a double broken dotted line, as well as the driving apparatus 16 depicted partially exposed in the central region. In addition, the tip circle 7 of the hook-shaped lowermost entrainment devices 6a, as well as the somewhat larger cutter revolution circle 23 are depicted, beyond which the counterknives 19 which have pointed tips project. Only two hook-shaped entrainment devices 6a are depicted at the lefthand side mowing roller 4 which revolve in two superposed planes, wherein the upper plane is arranged to be somewhat lagging in order to achieve an inclined position of the stalks. FIG. 3 shows an embodiment form with a larger working width (the left side is only shown diagrammatically) with two outer mowing rollers 4 and two inner mowing rollers 5, between which respectively one wipe-off roller 9 is arranged. This wipe-off roller is preferably designed to have a conical shape downward, or their entrainment devices 14 have conical outer contours, while the mowing rollers 4 and 5 have a conical outer contour sloping upwards. The conical outer contour can herein be formed by the roller outer surface itself or also only by several entrainment rims 11a, 11b having different diameters, which are connected with each other by means of a rotational member especially by a cylinder 12. Contrary to FIGS. 1 and 2 the wipe-off rollers 9 do not in this case wipe-off by "overtaking" in direction of rotation 8 of the mowing roller 4, rather they rotate with somewhat higher circumferential speed opposite to the direction of rotation 8. For this purpose the entrainment devices 6a are preferably equipped with a circularly arc-shaped front entrainment face 17. Herein the length of the entrainment devices 14 correspond approximately to the lengths of the entrainment devices 6a, so that the cornstalk is securely removed from the entrainment device 6a and is immediately pressed into the tooth base of the entrainment devices 14 for assuring a secure support. The wipe-off roller 9 meshes simultaneously with the inner mowing roller 5, so that the cornstalks are further conveyed to this mowing roller, wherein the mowing roller 5 can again rotate faster than the wipe-off roller 9 to achieve a rapid material flow and a secure transfer. The inner mowing roller 5 and the wipe-off roller 9 have approximately radially or somewhat rearwardly oriented entrainment devices 6b or 14, in order to assure a jam-free wipe-off operation at wipe-off metal plates of the roof-shaped central partition 21 or at the inlet metal plate 24. Since the mowing roller 5 and wipe-off roller have a considerably smaller lateral conveyance travel than the outer mowing roller 4 this arrangement is possible without any difficulties. By this arrangement working widths with approximately five meters can be realized, wherein the outer mowing rollers 4 can be swiveled inwards for instance around the axis of the inner mowing roller 5 to enable road transport. FIG. 4 shows a front view similar to FIG. 3, wherein in this case the wipe-off rollers 9 located nearest to the chopper overlap with the mowing rollers 4 and 5. Thus, the entrainment devices 14 of the wipe-off roller 9 convey the cornstalks from the outer mowing roller 4 as well as from the inner mowing roller 5 directly into the draw-in gap of the draw-in rollers 3, since the circumferential velocity of the wipe-off roller 9 can in a preferred embodiment be greater than that of the inner mowing roller 5, whereby a rapid material flow is achievable. Here both mowing rollers 4 and 5 are designed to be slightly conical upwards, wherein together with the wipe-off roller there results a sidewise inclined draw-in channel 10. The inner mowing roller 5 can equally be designed to be respectively conical downwards, wherein this mowing roller can simultaneously be configured as wipe-off roller 9. Patent Citations

Heinz: What others are saying about deal
- Staff Pittsburgh Business Times
Thursday's blockbuster announcement that H.J. Heinz Co. would be acquired had at least three things going for it: The sheer size of the deal, $28 million; the big-name brands involved; and one of the buyers, well-known investor Warren Buffett.
So it's no surprise that the national media covered Heinz (NYSE: HNZ) so heavily. You can read more of the Pittsburgh Business Times coverage online and also in Friday's print edition, which is available now. But here's a sampling of some of the other coverage:
Heinz has special place on our shelves (Marketplace)
Heinz acquisition part of hot deals market (Wall Street Journal)
Uncertainty may be in rearview mirror as mega-mergers ensue (New York Times)
And here's some of our coverage of the deal:
