Detroit-Windsor private bridge refusal upheld by U.S. judge
The U.S. Coast Guard didn't break the law by refusing to approve a privately funded bridge linking Detroit and Windsor, Ontario, a federal judge ruled, dealing a setback to efforts to build the span and halt a competing project funded mostly by the Canadian government.
U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer in Washington also refused to block the Coast Guard from granting a navigational permit for the publicly funded bridge, known as the New International Trade Crossing.
The Ambassador Bridge spanning the Detroit River, which is owned by Detroit International Bridge Co., a private company controlled by billionaire Manuel Moroun, carries more than a quarter of the total commercial traffic between the U.S. and Canada. Moroun has opposed the government funded project as unnecessary and proposed to add a new span to his bridge.
The Coast Guard didn't abuse its discretion in declining to issue the permit for the private bridge project, known as Twin Span, because the company hadn't nailed down land rights and lacked the power to compel them to be turned over, Collyer said in her ruling.
"In the absence of contrary evidence, the Coast Guard reasonably presumes that a state can exercise eminent domain to condemn any private property rights to construct a bridge, whereas private entities must prove property ownership," she wrote.
Collyer acknowledged that the bridge company faced harm through an inability to raise private capital if the New International Trade Crossing is perceived to be ahead in development.
"But the degree of this harm is not clear," she said. Construction of a publicly funded bridge is "by no means imminent or inevitable" because of political and regulatory challenges, Collyer wrote in explaining her unwillingness to block a Coast Guard permit for the government span.
"We respect the Court's determination that our motion was premature as the NITC bridge is simply too uncertain at this time," Mickey Blashfield, director of government relations for Ambassador, said in an e-mailed statement. "We will continue to work toward construction of a new Ambassador Bridge span and await the processing and consideration of our remaining claims in this action."
The rulings came in long-running litigation by Moroun's company, which alleges that U.S. and Canadian officials are trying to undermine its property rights and put it out of business.

For years now, investors have turned to dividend stocks to get the income they need. With other traditional sources of income largely falling flat and failing to deliver enough cash flow, especially for retirees, stocks with impressive dividend yields have helped many people bridge the gap between the income they need and what standard bank accounts and other safe investments provide.
But with all the hype about dividend stocks, some investors are looking for ways to diversify beyond them. One popular choice has been corporate bonds, especially high-yielding bonds. But with the appetizing nickname of "junk" bonds, are corporates really a smart play -- or an invitation for disaster?

What's old is new again, and for its first Masterworks concert of the season, Sarasota Orchestra's Artistic Director and Conductor Leif Bjaland proved this adage. Some early 20th-century programs he'd seen at the Library of Congress inspired the concert. In the olden days, programs were choc-a-bloc with short pieces, even (horrors!) excerpts from symphonies and concertos.
Which way is right? Whichever way works. And Bjaland's mix last weekend worked fine.
Violinist Vadim Gluzman added to the color with his richly toned 1690 ex-Leopold Auer Strad, which he played with gusto and grit. Bjaland allotted him a trio of showpieces, starting with Ravel's "Tzigane," a gutsy favorite that showed off Gluzman's meaty, lower register. The Glazunov arrangement of Tchaikovsky's "Meditation" from "Souvenir d'un lieu cher," and Wieniawski's "Fantaisie brillante on themes from Gounod's Faust," may not be as well known as the Ravel, but they're technical blockbusters.
The Wieniawski is a particularly interesting work featuring a pastiche of familiar operatic excerpts from Siebel's Aria and the demonic "Le Veau d'or," to the romantic garden scene duet and a bit of the ballet music. The changes in tempi and switches in mood are tough, but Bjaland traversed them with ease.
The rest of the program was devoted to exciting, exhilarating works that showed off the orchestra. "Short Ride in a Fast Machine," one of John Adams' best known orchestral pieces, is an entertaining,
unrelenting work and the orchestra gave it a good touch of brashness without running away with itself.
"Medea's Mediation" and "Dance of Vengeance," by Barber, and Richard Strauss' "Til Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks" were high tests for the ensemble, which they passed well. It was only the "Dance of the Seven Veils," from Strauss' "Salome," that seemed to drain the players of energy, but that's no breeze for anyone except, perhaps, the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra.
For an encore, we heard a rousing rendition of "The Orange Blossom Special," a country-Western hoedown romp that lifted the orchestra and audience to their feet.

- 1 cup(s) unsweetened frozen raspberries, thawed
- 3 tablespoon(s) sugar
- 4 store-bought dry ladyfingers, halved crosswise
- 1 cup(s) mango sorbet, slightly softened (see Note)
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 pinch(s) salt
- In a food processor, puree the raspberries with 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Using a rubber spatula, pass the puree through a fine strainer into a small bowl. Dip each ladyfinger half in the raspberry puree and turn to coat thoroughly. Lay 2 halves side by side on the bottom of each of four 3/4-cup ramekins. Spoon the remaining raspberry puree over the ladyfingers and let stand for 10 minutes to soften.
- Spoon 1/4 cup of the mango sorbet into each ramekin and spread it over the ladyfingers in an even layer. Cover the ramekins with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites and salt at high speed until soft peaks form. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the sugar over the whites and beat until incorporated. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar over the whites and beat until firm and glossy. Spoon the whites on top of the mango sorbet, making decorative swirls. Freeze until firm, about 3 hours.
- Preheat the broiler. Set the ramekins on a baking sheet and broil about 5 inches from the heat until the meringues are evenly browned. Serve the baked Alaskas immediately.
- Notes: The F&W test kitchen especially likes Ciao Bella mango sorbet (800-435-2863 or www.ciaobellagelato.com ).

Nayenne, the Survivor
Splash art (sketch):
Attachment 591581
Nayenne is a thin 19 year old girl who wears two wristbands with attached blades. Whenever I'm talking about chains I'm talking about thin chains that are connecting the blades and the wristbands and that can be lengthened or shortened on demand. She wears a full suit that enhances every single movement she makes. The suit has been partially exchanged by implements seeing she had to look good for the game's TV-show and had lost all her rights. She has long hair. She does also have two giant swords on her back. How exactly that looks is too hard to describe and there might be some variations to it, too so I'll give it a try and draw some pictures of her. I can't do that all that soon though, I don't have that much time and I don't have the right equipment with me right now.
The lore can be found in the second post!

Note: Using her abilities limits her regeneration, not the further usage of abilities (except for the ult at early ranks). There sometimes is two effects on a single ability, one called blade/chain and the other called sword. These parts of abilities change when she activates her ult, and switches weapons by that. Her ult is available at level one, it does only allow for the weapon swap though.
Passive - Proficiency - Nayenne regenerates using her suits regeneration system. She does also gain effects based on her choice of weapons.
She regenerates by 0.6% of her maximum health times the % of energy she has each second. This means at 50% Energy she regenerates for 0.3% of her maximum health only.
Passive - Swords: Adds 6/12/18/24 Armor Penetration and 25 Range on her auto-attacks.
Passive - Blades: Adds 10/20/30/40% Attack Speed.
The sword and blade passives rank up with the ultimate.
Q - Chain Strike - Nayenne shoots out one of her blades on a chain. When hitting the target location it extends to some sort of anchor and starts pulling all enemies behind it up to a limit of two towards Nayenne over the course of one second. She can still cast other abilities or attack while the blade is on its way. Flashing, pulling a third target, switching weapons or hitting the pulled target with your E drops the pull effect.
Sword Dash - Nayenne dashes forward and aims for her targets feet, turning herself around one time. This does also knock up targets hit for 0.5 seconds. Note that this has a higher area of effect than the pull. This works like Tryndamere's E. It is not targeted.
If I had to guess, I'd say the pull has about 125 radius and the dash about 250 radius.
Damage: 60/90/120/150/180 (+1 per Bonus Attack Damage) physical damage.
This damage can critically hit and applies on hit effects. Damage dealt to further targets is decreased by 10% up to a maximum of 30%.
Range: 600
Cost: 40%Energy
Cooldown: 20/19/18/17/16 seconds.
W - Tech - Nayenne's weapons get enhanced. She can activate this ability to get ready to use other abilities faster.
Passive: Her Energy-Regeneration is increased by 20/40/60/80/100% while this skill is ready to use.
Passive - Blades: Adds 14/21/28/35/42 as true damage to her attacks by heating the blades.
Passive - Swords: Adds 14/21/28/35/42(+0.15 per Bonus Ad) to her usual total Ad by increasing her swords over-all weight. Does not stack with itself!
Active: Reduces the cooldown of all her other abilities by 3 seconds.
Cost: 40%Energy
Cooldown: 8 seconds.
E - Kick - Nayenne prepares for a mighty kick gaining movement speed for a short duration. She can reactivate this ability to kick the closest target or wall and jump away from it.
Upon activation Nayenne accelerates by 25% over 1 second and stays at that speed for the next 2 seconds.
She can then reactivate this ability within those two seconds to execute a kick (skillshot) dealing 10/50/80/110/140(+1.2Ad)physical damage to the first target hit and jump to the opposite direction for 450 units should it have hit anything. Can also hit walls.
Range: 325
The kick applies a debuff called 'dazed' which slows the movement and attack-speed of the target hit by 15/20/25/30/35% for 1.5 seconds.
Can critically hit. Walls are kick proof. They will endure the kick, no worries.
Cost: 40%Energy
Cooldown: 14/13/12/11/10 seconds.
R - Stasis - Nayenne switches her weapons. She can reactivate this ability for 5 seconds after the initial activation to fall to her knees for 2.5 seconds and shield herself by that. The second activation has a cooldown of 90 seconds and can be used during crowd control effects (fear, silence, stun, taunt..).
This replaces her Q and W spells. The Q-spells have separate cooldowns.
While on her knees she becomes shielded by a stasis field. This will make her unable to interact with any of her surroundings and shield her for the amount regenerated during the whole effect. For every % of damage to the shield the duration of the overall stasis gets reduced by one %. Can't be interrupted. Healing reduction does only apply for 33% instead of 50% and does affect the maximum amount of shield but not the duration of regeneration. This means she regenerates the same amount when taking damage, just that it can't kill her during stasis. It can shorten the duration of the stasis though and effectively still damage her that way.
While in stasis she regenerates 8/12/16 times faster than normally (total up to 12/18/24% of her maximum hp).
Cost: None.
Cooldown: 18 seconds.
Knees down, gets shielded. Shortly before reviving begins she starts channeling teleport to get back to base.
A bit like this. Would also make for a skin concept for her.
Casually leans her hips to the left.
"You are of no danger to me."
"Life is of great value. If you're trying to take mine, I'll have to take yours."
Had more, but the forums crashed when I tried to update so..
READ THE LORE - please!
Concerning the champion:
You can chain your Q and E spell in many different ways.You can sacrifice damage for more displacement. When kicking a target you are dragging towards you the drag will be stopped immediately.
You can boost your regeneration by a lot. If you build just a Warmogs and a Spirit Visage you can boost the regeneration via ultimate to a maximum of 43.2%. You can boost the regeneration further than that (counted Spirit visage in) with a Ravenous Hyrda (Health Regen) or any other Health Regeneration effect. For every health per second you will heal 48 Hp during the duration of the ultimate (at max rank!). This means you will regenerate an additional ~180 Hp all the time, no matter how much Energy you had. Once again, these values take into account that you have already built a Spirit Visage and receive the 20% heal bonus.
During the stasis you regenerate 40 seconds worth of hp if you want to hear it in other words.
Masteries - page is ****ed up, can't really spec into what one wants. Anyways, should give you an idea.

This build is good for assassinating only! You deal about 4 times the damage but you have about a third of the sustain you have with the other build. I'm not sure about which life-steal item to get, that is up to you. Also, you might consider exchanging some items for more sustain and make a mixture of those builds.
She is designed to be a top laner or jungler.

In a far away world there was a planet whose inhabitants had absolutely no knowledge of magic. They had, however, developed such a high standard of technology that most people were bored to death and only entertained by the game.
Yes, there was a game they were playing. Almost everyone was playing the game from time to time. When playing the game, you were put into a suit which enhances the body and simulates collisions with simulated stuff that one could only see through special glasses. It was pretty cool a game. It got further developed and implemented into every-day life. One could play it when going to work, work while playing the game, because it adapted to whatever you actually had to do and so on. But seeing that it was now developing into every-day life, people needed a new cause of entertainment. That was when they inserted a 'hardcore' mode, where you could really fight with those suits. The weapons that were previously simulated became real to the extent it was possible. You were pretty likely to die in this mode seeing that every kill requires a death. Some people just like killing, others throw their lives away, not seeing any sense in it. And then there's those that get forced to play it, when they were viewed at as unfit for the community. All of it was broadcasted live.
In it lived a girl called Nayenne, but unlike in some fairy tale, which you might now expect she was a pretty normal girl. She fit the community too, and she played the game from time to time. Not the hardcore mode though, that was for the crazy ones, but it was entertaining to watch. The problem now was, that she was -falsely- accused of murder. The world was corrupt and by no means a perfect world. Some media guys needed new, interesting players. She suited that role perfectly. She was upon the top ranked players - regarding how little she played the game, not total. She hadn't even been hurt yet. And so she was sentenced to death. In that world that meant that she was forced to play the game in hardcore mode - fourteen hours a day, which was exactly what the media guys wanted.
Against all odds she survived two weeks. She had killed hundreds of people in the progress, full of hatred for being put in there for no reason and hatred on those people. People that killed just for fun. People that didn't value life. They deserved to die.
"I never chose this, but it clearly chose me. I will survive!" - Nayenne
Intro&Arrival of Nayenne in Valoran
Nayenne was put together with the best of the best. The craziest players. She had survived longer than most of them in just two weeks. She was one of those that had been forced to play the game.
Normally people that chose to play the game didn't play as much as prisoners and prisoners usually died on their first day. She had played 210 hours and killed 472 people. This was the beginning of her third week. She was about to put up a new record, category "the survivor". Just two minutes to go.
But when the gates opened this time and she entered the arena to kneel before her opponent, as was common before those matches, something changed. Everything around her grew dark. She remembered that that new device she got would activate from keeling down. That must be it. The stasis field was a totally new part she got, and it hadn't been tested thoroughly yet. It would hinder any contact to her if it worked as intended though, and by that help her survive longer. Still, this couldn't be what was intended to happen. She should merely be isolated. She felt as if she was being torn apart. Then she lost her consciousness.
The next time she awoke she was in some kind of laboratory. Everything around her seemed weird. Still very weak she looked around and saw some tall weird looking guy turning towards her. What had happened?
"Ah, you're awake." the guy took a break, then he added "I am Viktor."
She couldn't understand that language. She had in fact never heard anything like it. Still very confused she asked:
"What happened, where am I?"
"Hum, let's try this device here.."
Still gibberish. He gave her some communication device, at least that was what it had to be and repeated:
"I am Viktor. Concerning your last question. Honestly, I am not entirely sure as to what had happened. I developed some kind of field device to put up a stasis field. Then you appeared in the middle of it, kneeing just the way you are now. I might accidentally have developed some kind of teleporting device. You are currently in my laboratory; in Zaun."
Zaun? She had never heard of that. Some thing was wrong here.
"And who are you?", asked Viktor "You have some interesting technical devices with you."
"I am Nayenne." she took a deep breath and stood up "A prisoner from one of the great Arenas. You might call me a gladiator, seeing that I was sentenced to death by fighting there."
Viktor took a closer look at her. She seemed to be wearing some really interesting suit. And she seemed to be weakened at the moment. He might just go on and kill her to take her stuff and have a better look at it. But he had already taken a look at one of those parts. The technology was totally different. No techmaturgy at all. He couldn't do that. She might be of some other use though. Seeing that she said she was a gladiator it didn't seem all too clever to ask her to explain to him how her armor worked.
"So you're a good fighter then?" he took another break, not really expecting her to answer his question he added "I, too fight, for the sake of techmaturgy."
"That sounds as if it were from a game.. as if you mixed magic and technology.."
She laughed desperately. This couldn't be true.
"That's totally right."
Magic? There was no such thing. She looked around in his laboratory.
"Magic? Are you joking?"
In response, Viktor sighed and cast a spell using one of his devices showing her what he meant. What kind of weird place did he take that girl from?
"I'm not. Do you think there could be an other explanation for all of this? That device I gave you; I am sure you can't build something like that without techmaturgy. I ask you once again: Are you a good fighter?"
Now he had her full attention. She answered:
"In my world at least, I am."
That left some hope of his work not to be in vain. The field definitely didn't do what it was supposed to do, and on top of that, the field generator broke from that usage.
"That sounds good. An institute has been founded where different fractions battle each other in some kind of arena instead of going to war. It's called the League of Legends. If you pass their judgement you'd be a welcome ally to me."
She knew she was doomed in the place she came from. He didn't know it; he could probably think of it by her explanations though. She was pretty sure she could kill that guy. But then one doesn't kill ones savior. One helps him. She didn't want to fight. She had killed a lot already. She had been angry. She was no murderer in the first place. But now she surely was. It is not necessary to kill your opponents in the arena. She killed them all nevertheless.
The best thing she could do now was helping this man. It couldn't take forever.
So she said
"Just lead me there and let them decide. I won't just sit around. You saved my life and I will help you and your country if that's what you want."
and hit the road for her judgement.
Sorry i've been late in getting this review out, i've ended up being free after my plans were suddenly canceled, and i've had stuff come up while I thought I was open for this. Regardless, here's my review...with one twist.
It seems like your concept received some negative feedback. This wouldn't be a big deal on its own, but that feedback commits the mortal sin of not having explained itself. With that in mind, at the end of this review i'm going to list some reasons I found that may have generated this seemingly unjustified negativity. (Keep in mind i've had this page open for days.)
A different universe entirely, is that kind of barrier necessary? I don't see why just having a different world wouldn't suffice, as it did in Taric's lore. Not to mention the difficulty of having to rationalize how the magic in one universe would affect the events in another universal domain in a place specifically mentioned not to have magic.
As for the rest, it's not too shabby. Sure, it's confusing to read that she was framed for murder without any context as to why, but Nayenne must've been equally confused by that so it can work.
If i'm reading this correctly, her weapons are chained wristblades that can be extended and retracted on command. There could be some interesting mechanics down the line with that. As for the rest of her look, I can't really call heads or tails without some color to get a better idea.
She also has two giant swords, which make me wonder which her primary weapons are. I'll have to visit the abilities for this one.

Recent Pittsfield reviews
"We rented this outstanding property the day after Christmas for a long weekend (10 Adults - ages 23 thru 54) and everyone loved the place. The property was clean and well maintained and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Plenty of room for everyone to hang out and relax - the place has a great set-up for all the bedrooms - beds and linens are of very high quality. The kitchen has everything you need (we had some great meals and we had plenty of room to all eat together). The living room and sun room are great for hanging out and enjoying whatever activity you plan on doing (reading a good book- watching the big screen TV - playing cards or board games while enjoying a nice warm fire). Plenty of space to all hang together but the layout of the house allows for everyone to enjoy their own space if they are looking for some quiet time. Also this is a great location for doing multiple activities (running/walking/ice skating - if the weather cooperates skating on the lake would be awesome but there are 2 indoor rinks within 20 minutes if the lake is not frozen - skiing). Also place is very conveniently located to all area attractions. All in all a great winter weekend get away - would recommend this place for a family gathering of all ages. Looking forward to returning again."
"My husband and I first came to the Morewood House in October 2014 to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We've been coming to the Berkshires for years and were looking for a place that was private and pet-friendly. We appreciate the home's history and the owners' attention to detail. The space is so cozy and warm. The kitchen is well appointed, the gas stove provides plenty of heat, and the front yard is fenced - the perfect spot to play fetch with our dog. We can't wait to come back!"
"Did we want a party? Was the question our children wanted to know and we said no, we just wanted to have them around so we could hang out with them. But our house is very small. Well that was around Easter when they told us they would take care of it. Our 50th anniversary was the 21st of November and very close to Thanksgiving. So they worked together long distance, our son and his family live down south, thankfully our daughter and her family live approximately 1 1/4 hr. away. I'm sure emails and calls and texts were many to make these wonderful plans. Your house was so welcoming and family friendly, as we went from room to room we just keep saying this is exactly what we needed. I think we all had our own rooms and sitting areas with plenty of bathrooms. The two boys were so happy when they opened the door in their room and found a play area with trucks and toys. It was wonderful. Family and friends came to dinner and to visit during our time there. Then to top off everything was the snow we had on the 26th, the children and all of us just loved it. Beside thanking you for the use of your house, I thank all my children and grandchildren for making this the most wonderful time of our life. There was 6 adults 3 teens and 3 little ones and we were so comfortable. I hope we can do this again during the summer. What a great place to get together."

Like I said above.....before lunch, down -25....after lunch, up .25....buy those pullbacks big boy and lose the note by the nightstand, which is one word! Time to light my cigar!
Agreed, Short term investors (3 days or less) usually always lose money. Always trying to buy "timing" is a bad investment. The smart investor invests on the pullbacks, knowing increased share value at lower rates will always silidify huge increases in Profit! Never run scared.....load and watch your profits grow...especially at these levels! Good Luck!
Sentiment: Buy
TVIX goes up when the S&P craps! I believe it's VIX, VXX.
VIX is up but why is TVIX such a turd.....are those Credit Suisse Sweethearts skimming?

Celebrate the color
Bringing a spiritual perspective to daily life
I've lived in white suburbia most of my life, and over the years I've had only a handful of friends who aren't white. I'd like that to change.
A few years ago I sang with a group that typically offers week-long festivals of classical choral music. This year they were offering a gospel week. I felt drawn to it but wondered how good it could be, because the other times I'd attended, almost everyone was white. I thought it would be artificial to have a primarily white chorus singing gospel music. But the conductor had a good reputation, and I decided to try it.
As it turned out, about a third of the group was African-American. The festival had gotten the word out, and experienced gospels singers had come.
The music seemed simple, but we festival veterans quickly saw that there was more to gospel than singing. Swaying and clapping were as fundamental to the spirit and message as the words and music. Many of us needed remedial training. Clapping on the off beat was no small trick. A woman stood up front for us to watch and follow. Sometimes our patient, determined director actually knelt in front of us and picked up and moved our feet. It was easy to feel like an utter klutz. But it was a lot of fun. And the spirit made me feel really alive.
One day I saw a woman on the lawn reading a book. I'd noticed her at rehearsal. She had a particularly spirited rhythm and a nice smile. I wondered if she could help me. Shyly, I asked her if she'd give me some tips. Her warm smile spurred me on, and I stood in front of her and strutted my stuff.
"Well, how do I look?"
"You look cool!" she said.
I still don't know whether that was truthful or compassionate. But it made my day. Perhaps my week.
But something bigger than learning to sway was happening as the week progressed. My eyes were opening to a whole segment of society I'd missed. I knew that racism, prejudice, discrimination, were wrong. We're all God's children, right? But all of a sudden my training to be "color blind" didn't cut it anymore. It was time to appreciate, to celebrate the color, not ignore it. All of a sudden my world was bigger, more beautiful - and more colorful.
