Dutch Cardinal Willem Eijk is fully committed to ecumenism and his position on the matter has not changed, his spokeswoman said.
Anna Kruse issued a statement in the wake of row triggered by comments made by the cardinal in the week of Christian unity.
Cardinal Eijk, Archbishop of Utrecht and head of the Dutch bishops' conference, told the Protestant daily Reformatorisch Dagblad last week that the Council of Trent's condemnations of Martin Luther's teachings, for example on the Eucharist, still justified excluding Protestants from receiving communion in the Catholic Church. Bas Plaisier, former head of the Protestant Church in the Netherlands, said in response that he "didn't understand what [Eijk] is doing"
The Catholic Church accused the Protestant daily Trouw, which reported on the Reformatorisch Dagblad interview, of misquoting Cardinal Eijk and exaggerating his comments.
In addition, the Church took issue with Revd Plaisier, whom it accused of "want[ing] to increase the argument". This dialogue should be engaged in at a global level with the Vatican's Council for Promoting Christian Unity, it said in a statement.

Moves Behind the Scenes Could Affect Rangers Most
By JOE LAPOINTE
Published: June 22, 1997
PITTSBURGH, June 21— Certainly it was important for the Rangers to select Stefan Cherneski in the first round of the National Hockey League draft here today. He is a right wing, a position where the Rangers have lacked depth in recent seasons.
But Cherneski, from Brandon in the Western Hockey League, is only 18. He will probably not be ready for New York for at least a year or two. He is 6 feet, 195 pounds and scored 39 goals in 56 games last season before sustaining an abdominal injury.
But two other moves made today could affect the team next season. One was the acquisition of Mike Peluso, a rugged left wing, from the St. Louis Blues. The second was that Coach Colin Campbell was interviewed to be coach of Team Canada at next year's Winter Olympics.
Peluso, who played with the Devils' 1995 Stanley Cup team, is a Group 2 free agent, meaning the Rangers will have the right to keep him by matching any offer he gets from any other team. Peluso came as compensation for Larry Pleau, a Ranger executive who is moving to St. Louis as general manager.
Peluso, at 6-4, 220 pounds, is 31 and turned professional with Chicago in 1989. He plays left and right wing and can fill in at center. He has a tattoo of the Stanley Cup on his arm. In 64 games with the Blues last season, Peluso had 2 goals, 5 assists and 226 penalty minutes. In his N.H.L. career, he has 38 goals, including a career-best 15 with Ottawa in 1992-93. He also has 1,838 penalty minutes.
''I bring a tough element to the game,'' Peluso said. ''It will be exciting for me. I know the area.'' The Rangers, he said, ''are kind of like 'America's Team.' ''
Neil Smith, the Rangers' president and general manager, said, ''We're always looking to get bigger and stronger and to have a more combative team.''
Referring to Peluso, Smith added, ''We know all about him from having to play against him too many times.''
As far as Campbell, he was intercepted this afternoon by Bob Clarke, the general manager of the Philadelphia Flyers. Clarke is also the general manager of Team Canada, which will play in the Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan, next February. Clarke and his Olympic staff took Campbell to a back office in the Civic Arena to interview him about Canada's head coaching position.
Other candidates for the job are Marc Crawford of the Colorado Avalanche, Scotty Bowman of the Detroit Red Wings and Doug MacLean of the Florida Panthers. But it is believed that Campbell is among the finalists, in part because of the Rangers' strong performance in the recent Stanley Cup playoffs.
''It is a great opportunity,'' Campbell said of the Olympic position. ''If it happens, it happens.''
Campbell said he also expected to come to an agreement with the Rangers next week on a contract. Although he has one season left on his current pact, he has been negotiating with Smith for an extension.
Clarke said he would probably pick an Olympic coach by mid-July.
Cherneski, the Rangers' first choice, described himself as the kind of player ''who can bring character level to the team, positive attitude.'' He said he felt ''a big adrenaline rush'' over his selection and referred to ''a fire burning in me'' to make the N.H.L.

While U.S. Military intervention in Syria has appears to have cooled down at the present time, there are growing concerns that showing support for opposition forces in that country could wind up backfiring. According to a recent report from IHS Jane, a defense consultancy, many of those battling the Bashar al-Assad regime are hardline Muslim - with little connection to the U.S. And its western allies.

Keywords: Syria, opposition foirces, weapons, military intervention
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - According to the report, forces battling the Assad regime in Syria now number around 100,000 fighters. After more than two years of fighting they are fragmented into as many as 1,000 bands. The study has found that there are around 10,000 jihadists, fighting for powerful factions linked to AL-Qaeda.
Another 30,000 to 35,000 are hardline Islamists who share much of the outlook of the jihadists. These factions are more concerned with defeating the Bashar regime in lieu of wider, international concerns.
In addition, there are also at least a further 30,000 moderates belonging to groups that have an Islamic character. Therefore, only a small minority of the rebels are linked to secular or purely nationalist groups.
Western diplomats estimate that less than one third of the opposition forces are "palatable" to the United Kingdom. American envoys put the figure even lower.
Among all other concerns is the very real fear that the rebellion against the Assad regime is being increasingly dominated by extremists. The west's support for these groups could in effect give weaponry that would later fall into hostile hands. These fears contributed to unease in the U.S. and elsewhere over military intervention in Syria.
"The insurgency is now dominated by groups which have at least an Islamist viewpoint on the conflict. The idea that it is mostly secular groups leading the opposition is just not borne out," Charles Lister, author of the analysis, said.
Based on intelligence estimates along with interviews with activists and militants, the report contends that the fighting has seen the emergence of hundreds of separate rebel bands, each operating in small pockets of the country, which are usually loyal to larger factions.
Two factions linked to Al-Qaeda, Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) - also know as the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Shams (ISIS) - have come to dominate among the more extremist fighters, Lister says. Their influence among the rebel factions has only grown over the past year.
"Because of the Islamist make up of such a large proportion of the opposition, the fear is that if the West doesn't play its cards right, it will end up pushing these people away from the people we are backing," he said. "If the West looks as though it is not interested in removing Assad, moderate Islamists are also likely to be pushed further towards extremists."

Central Florida cornerback Josh Robinson (20) attempts to break the grasp of Southern Mississippi defensive back Mortez Thompson (6) in the fourth quarter of an NCAA college football game in Hattiesburg, Miss., Saturday, Nov. 12, 2011. / AP Photo/Steve Coleman
The Detroit Lions havent taken a cornerback in the first or second round of the NFL draft since Terry Fair went 20th overall in 1998.
Thats probably why they have a need at the cornerback position, ESPN analyst Todd McShay said on a teleconference today.
If the Lions choose to address the position early this year, McShay said theyll have a deep crop of cover men to pick from, with four players who are first-round talents and a whole bunch of players ... in that second-, third-round range.
Morris Claiborne of Louisiana State remains, far and away, the drafts top cornerback prospect and a probable top-10 pick. McShay said Janoris Jenkins of North Alabama and Dre Kirkpatrick of Alabama are the next most talented corners, but that South Carolinas Stephon Gilmore might be the second defensive back off the board.
I dont have as high a grade on him as some people, McShay said. I think part of it is just a need for cornerbacks, how important that position is. The fact that the second- and third-best corners in this draft, talking about Jenkins and Kirkpatrick, have a lot of question marks, and Gilmore, you dont have any question marks.
McShay said Jenkins could slide to the second or third round because of character concerns. He was kicked off the team at Florida after multiple arrests and has four children, reportedly by three different women.
I dont know if the juice is worth the squeeze with this kid, McShay said.
In his most recent mock draft, McShay projects the Lions to take Illinois defensive end Whitney Mercilus at No. 23 overall in the first round and Central Florida cornerback Josh Robinson at No. 54 in the second round.
Robinson ran the fastest 40-yard dash at the NFL combine last month, 4.33 seconds, and McShay said a number of other corners could go on day two, including Jayron Hosley (Virginia Tech), Chase Minnifield (Virginia), Brandon Boykin (Georgia), Trumaine Johnson (Montana), Alfonzo Dennard (Nebraska) and Dwight Bentley (Louisiana-Lafayette).
I think the depth is great, McShay said. I think you can almost get the same quality player in the third round as you can get in the second.

Internships are generally unpaid. But they will pay off handsomely under a new program announced Tuesday by the Rhode Island Student Loan Authority. Starting May 1st the Authority, known as RISLA, will forgive $2,000 of a student's loan if he or she completes an internship worth three credit hours. It will be forgiven upon graduation.
RISLA director Charles Kelley says the idea is to stem the brain drain, the practice of promising young college students leaving the state for lack of work.
NECAP, the standardized test that's become a requirement for high school graduation in Rhode Island, may be harder than most people think. A majority of adults who took a portion of the math test last weekend failed to make the grade.
The results of a mock standardized test given to politicians and community leaders will be released Tuesday afternoon. The math test was administered Saturday by a student group which opposes the test known as NECAP or the New England Common Assessment Program.
The chairwoman of the state Board of Education is blasting the adult test takers for participating in what she calls a "publicity stunt." Eva Marie Mancuso says if the adults had a hard time with it it's because they weren't prepared, as students are.
The University of Rhode Island says it's seeing a record number of applications for the Fall 2013 semester. University officials believe their marketing efforts are paying off.
Close to 21,000 students have applied for admission to URI for next fall. Roughly 75 percent will be admitted so that the university has its desired freshman class of 3,100 even after students who have been admitted decide to go elsewhere.
URI Admissions Dean Cynthia Bonn believes the interest in attending URI is a direct result of their outreach efforts.
A group of Providence students is asking prominent Rhode Islanders to take the standardized test known as the NECAP this weekend, as they work to demonstrate why it should not be used as a graduation requirement."We hope to lend a deeper perspective to debate about the new high stakes testing graduation requirement," says 16-year-old Classical High School student Cauldierre McKay, a member of the Providence Student Union. The group has been pushing state officials to reconsider their policy on graduation requirements that go into effect for the class of 2014.
If you're over 60, have you decided to go back to school? Why?

Providence Mayor Angel Taveras says it's a dream that the city won a $5 million prize to help low-income children boost language skills. The prize money came from a philanthropic organization set up by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Providence won with a program that will equip low-income children with devices that record conversations and count the words they are exposed to. The children's parents will then be coached on ways to expose kids to more words. The goal is to close what's known as "the word gap," between low-income and more affluent four-year-olds.
The town of North Providence is planning a major upgrade to school security. It's the result of the schoolroom massacre in Newtown, Connecticut.
This could be a pivotal day in the future of education in our state. A new state Board of Education holds its first meeting.The new Rhode Island Board of Education combines the functions of two previous panels: the Board of Governors for Higher Education and the Board of Regents for Elementary and Secondary Education.Board chair Eva Marie Mancuso sat down with RIPR education reporter Elisabeth Harrison to talk about the priorities of the new board.
Twenty-nine Rhode Island students will compete for the State Spelling Bee title tomorrow at 10 AM in the Cumberland High School auditorium. The winner of tomorrow's public competition, sponsored by The Valley Breeze newspaper, will be sent, with a parent, to the Scripps National Spelling Bee for a week in May.

Polian's Super Bowl lessonPosted by on January 31, 2014 – 12:40 pm
Appearing on the Mike & Mike show on ESPN Radio Friday, former Bills GM Bill Polian was asked about the importance of the preparation leading up to the Super Bowl game on Sunday. Polian said based on what he learned in preparation for the Bills third straight Super Bowl in Pasadena, the preparation doesn't carry any weight.
"I found out through five Super Bowls that it doesn't really mean anything," Polian said. "We got blown out in the last three quarters against the Cowboys in Super Bowl XXVII. We made all kinds of preparations to make sure we did everything right. We took our team out of the downtown Los Angeles hotel to a hideaway hotel in Pasadena, which is absolutely the wrong thing to do. We went and worked out at the Rose Bowl and that was the wrong thing to do. After the game I sat down next to Marv Levy on the bus and we were both downcast and I said, 'You know what the lesson is? Just win the game. Nothing else matters.'
"We were way too up tight. The one thing we didn't anticipate and it was entirely my fault. Every time we met the press that week people asked, 'What if you lose again? Will you be the greatest losers of all time?'
"So that coupled with taking the team away I really believe that it wasn't our team that day. We played up tight which was not our style. We never did that. The last thing Jim Kelly ever did was play up tight. We also had a lot of bad breaks too, but that's what happened when you get in one of those games. What it taught me after the fact is the Super Bowl is one game and you can't control anything that happens so you just do the best job in preparation and roll with the punches."

Bills Hall of Fame QB Jim Kelly will be the keynote speaker at the Paul Hornung Award Banquet next Tuesday in Louisville. Asked to speak by his former college coach Howard Schnellenberger, Kelly also participated in a Q&A with the Louisville Courier-Journal in advance of the event and provided an update on his health less than a year after being diagnosed with cancer in his jaw.
Kelly said he is in good shape health-wise at this point.
"So far so good," Kelly said. "The cancer has not come back. In the last two years I've had major back surgery, neck surgery, double hernia surgery and four jaw surgeries. I feel like the Six Million Dollar Man and change."

EJ gets postgame hug from Jim KellyPosted by on September 15, 2013 – 6:34 pm
EJ Manuel engineered an efficient 80-yard scoring drive in the waning moments throwing a two-yard touchdown pass to Stevie Johnson with two seconds left to tie the game, with the extra point from Dan Carpenter lifting the Bills to a 24-23 win. Manuel's exploits earned him a hug from Buffalo's Hall of Fame quarterback.
Kelly was waiting in the tunnel of the stadium near the Bills locker room after the game and bear hugged Manuel.
"It was awesome," said Kelly. "That's momentous to get encouragement from someone like Jim (Kelly). To get texts from him during the week just asking how I'm doing, not necessarily worried about football, but just seeing how I'm doing mentally and how I'm handling everything week in and week out. That's huge. To see him after the game I gave him a big hug and he was really proud of me."

Kent Hull trophy to honor Miss. linemanPosted by on September 11, 2013 – 9:28 am
Bills Wall of Famer Kent Hull was a lot of things to a lot of people. To many he was a teammate, a leader and a friend. Now his memory will be honored with the Kent Hull trophy.
Each fall the Hull Trophy will go to the Mississippi college offensive lineman who most displays those traits that enabled Hull to play in three Pro Bowls, four Super Bowls and become one of the most respected linemen and leaders in the NFL. That according to the Hattiesburg American.
The trophy — a bronzed replica of Hull at work — will be presented each year at the C-Spire Conerly Trophy Banquet. Money to fund and perpetuate the award is being raised at 'A Tribute to Kent Hull Banquet' on Sept. 24.
Bills Hall of Famer Jim Kelly will be the keynote speaker at the banquet.

Kelly gives QB nod to KolbPosted by on July 19, 2013 – 10:15 am
A week and a half before training camp, Hall of Fame QB Jim Kelly says if he had to pick the Bills starting QB for this year, he'd go with the veteran.
Kelly weighed in on the quarterback battle between veteran Kevin Kolb and first round draft pick EJ Manuel Thursday night, in an appearance on The John Murphy Show.
"I've been to a couple of practices," Kelly said. "If I had to give a nod, I really would look more towards Kevin Kolb right now. And the reason I say that is, he's a veteran. He's been through it. He knows what to look at."
"When EJ Manuel, when he gets it, when it starts clicking with him, and the more I saw him, the more people I talk to, it's starting to click more and more," Kelly told host John Murphy. "He's such a great athlete, he's got such a strong arm, and he's got such good football sense, which is why they drafted him."
Kelly says no matter who wins the starting QB job at training camp, the Bills figure to be better off at the position than they have been in recent years.
"Right now, it will be interesting to see how this training camp pans out. Both of them had great minicamps, they both did very good jobs. The whole coaching staff looked at them, and that was one position they might not have to worry about as much as they have in the past."
Kelly is preparing for a one day youth football clinic at St John Fisher College in Rochester next Tuesday, July 23rd. Information on the clinic is available here.

Jim Kelly-"I'm slowly getting better"Posted by on July 19, 2013 – 9:12 am
It has only been six weeks since Hall of Fame Quarterback Jim Kelly underwent extensive surgery on his mouth and jaw to remove a cancerous tumor. But the always resilient QB is on the comeback road.
Appearing on The John Murphy Show Thursday night, Kelly says his recovery continues, although not quite as quickly as he would like.
"I'm getting better," Kelly said on the radio show. "I'm not a very patient person and the patience has been running out for a couple of weeks now, just wondering when the pain's going to subside. I am getting better, slowly but surely, it will all come to a head where I'll be fine and get back to normal. But they had to do a lot."
Kelly announced at his football camp three weeks ago that he is cancer free and will not require immediate chemotherapy or radiation. And he's looking forward to a checkup in a couple of weeks.
"I've heard so many horror stories about chemo and radiation, and some of the things other people have gone through. I send my prayers out to them every night," he told host John Murphy.
" We have to continue to listen to what my dentist says and what my doctors say, and do the right thing. In about two weeks, I go for my first CT scan to make sure none of the cancer has come back. I'm very blessed."
Kelly will be on hand for a one day youth football clinic at St John Fisher College in Rochester next Tuesday, July 23rd. Information about the clinic is available here.

Kelly sees Patriots as vulnerablePosted by on June 27, 2013 – 12:00 pm
Eager to see the Bills succeed much like they did when he was their quarterback, Hall of Famer Jim Kelly in an appearance on NFL AM on NFL Network shared his opinion on how vulnerable the Patriots are with all that they've lost from their high-powered offense this offseason.
"They're very vulnerable," Kelly said. "From the standpoint of Tom Brady if you look at what he's lost with your number one player Wes Welker and Brandon Lloyd. Losing Welker is like for me when I was playing, losing Andre Reed. A guy you depend on not just week in and week out, but in clutch situations you always looked toward your number one target. Mine was always Andre Reed and when you lose a Wes Welker that's going to hurt. There's no doubt they have to feel something being without your four or five top receivers."
New England lost top receiver Welker to Denver, they released Lloyd (2nd in receiving), Rob Gronkowski (3rd) is coming off back surgery and is a question mark for the start of the regular season, Hernandez (4th) is in jail and Danny Woodhead (5th) signed with San Diego.
Still, Kelly is confident New England's head coach will devise ways around the offense's personnel shortcomings.
"I'm sure Bill Belichick will find a way," said Kelly. "He's probably already got something up his sleeve. But I don't really feel too sorry for them. I don't really feel too sorry for them because sooner or later the Bills have got to rise to the top and if we have to take it that way, oh well."

Kelly weighs in on Bills QB competitionPosted by on June 27, 2013 – 11:20 am
Bills head coach Doug Marrone has labeled the quarterback competition between Kevin Kolb and EJ Manuel a virtual dead heat going into training camp. Hall of Fame QB Jim Kelly was asked to weigh in on the competition in his Thursday morning appearance on the NFL Network.
"Both are throwing the ball very, very well," said Kelly, who attended a few of the spring practices. "I think Kevin Kolb might be a little bit ahead because of the mental approach. He's been in the league for a number of years. EJ Manuel is a very smart, bright guy. He has the athletic ability that maybe Kolb might not have. I'd say the early pick would probably be Kevin Kolb at this time, but they picked EJ Manuel for a reason. That's for the future. It's good that we have two guys that can hopefully take over and lead this team back to the playoffs."

Jim Kelly taking "special medicine"Posted by on June 27, 2013 – 10:36 am
Bills Hall of Fame QB Jim Kelly appeared on NFL AM on NFL Network this morning and provided an update on his recent bout with cancer and his 26th annual football camp.
Kelly said he's taking medication where his stitches are located from his June 7th surgery to remove half of his upper jaw that was stricken with cancer.
"The pain is still there," said Kelly. "I'm taking special medicine for my upper jaw where all the stitches are still in and watching my diet and the things I'm eating and drinking."
Kelly detailed how the antibiotics he was taking for what was initially presumed to be an infection did not work.
"I knew something was different with the pain I was having in my jaw," said Kelly. "I went through six antibiotics before I knew I had cancer. But I've been very blessed. Now no cancer and have a CT scan every two months to check on it and pray that it doesn't come back."

Diet restrictions leave Kelly lighterPosted by on June 24, 2013 – 11:19 am
One of the minor benefits from Jim Kelly's cancer surgery is a stringent list of restrictions with respect to diet. After announcing Monday that he was cancer free, Kelly explained that by having most of his teeth removed, the Hall of Fame quarterback's diet has been severely limited. That's led to a loss of weight, which Kelly was happy about knowing he had to drop some weight anyway.
"I've lost 14 pounds, which is good," Kelly said. "I need to lose about 10 or 15 more. I cannot eat any solid foods like steaks or chicken or anything hard that I have to bite on because I did have most of my teeth removed in the front and in the back. So it's
mostly soft foods. No nuts or anything hard that I have to chew on a lot. But it doesn't bother me because I need to lose weight. I can think of other ways to lose that's better than this, but I feel pretty good."
Kelly called the soreness from surgery, which he's still experiencing now as constant and worse than anything he endured as a football player or in his three most recent surgeries (back, neck, hernia). But he also understands it's a part of the recovery process.

Checkup schedule for Jim KellyPosted by on June 24, 2013 – 11:14 am
Part of the recovery process from cancer surgery are frequent follow-ups to make sure the cancer has not returned. Here's how Kelly's schedule will proceed from here, after announcing Monday he was cancer free following his June 7th surgery.
"I have to go back every two months and have a CAT scan done to make sure nothing comes back," he said. "Right now I feel pretty good. It's very sore, but that's just part of it."
Kelly will also have blood work done at those checkups as the monitoring process will be frequent by the oncologists.

Kelly glad to avoid chemotherapyPosted by on June 24, 2013 – 10:12 am
Bills Hall of Fame QB Jim Kelly is one tough bird, but even he was hoping to avoid chemotherapy after being diagnosed with cancer in his jaw.
The 53-year old Kelly said he was hoping to avoid chemotherapy at the time he announced he had cancer back on June 3rd. So to find out last week that he'd be able to do so was big for him.
"Big time relief. Trust me, prayers definitely have a big part in it, not just from my family, but all across the country. I've received so many letters and emails from people that have had similar circumstances as I did and some of them were not very good and some of them were very good. You're encouraged on one hand and discouraged on the other. To find out where they've been and the prognosis of where I'm going I'm very excited. I'm happy."
Kelly announced Monday that he was cancer free following surgery as he opened his annual football camp at One Bills Drive. And that means he'll be able to avoid chemotherapy, something he was hoping for all along.

Jim Kelly is cancer freePosted by on June 24, 2013 – 10:08 am
Good news as Jim Kelly kicked off his annual football camp at One Bills Drive. The Hall of Fame quarterback is cancer free following surgery June 7th to remove part of his jaw bone that contained the cancer.
"It's a long process, but I found out great news on Wednesday," Kelly said. "I don't have to go through radiation treatment and chemo, which is a blessing. From what I've been told everything that they did in surgery that if I had to do radiation or chemo it would put me way back."
With the doctors at ECMC getting all the cancer removed during surgery Kelly will not need to undergo any radiation treatment at this time. He'll continue to get checkups periodically as a precaution.
Kelly announced that he had cancer back on June 3rd.

Polian's outlook for 2013 BillsPosted by on June 4, 2013 – 10:56 am
Bills former GM and current ESPN NFL analyst Bill Polian was asked for his outlook on the 2013 Bills lead by new head coach Doug Marrone. Here was his synopsis, which included a reference to top draft choice EJ Manuel.
"I've said numerous times before that Doug Marrone is a great coach. I think he proved that at Syracuse," Polian said. "I know he's got a plan for how to proceed. I know he'll get the players attention and respect. I'm sure he's got that already. He's decisive, he's tough, he's hard-nosed. He knows how to play. He's got a great track record not only in college football, but in the NFL. The truth is we both went to the same high school so I'm not neutral when it comes to him. I'm proud of what he's achieved.
"That is the first step in the right direction. They've got a coach who knows how to win and plans to win. The rest of it now is putting the pieces in place. They've got to get better play from the quarterback position. That's no secret. Buddy (Nix) said that quite clearly. But in the young man that they have he's got a world of talent, perhaps the most since they drafted Jim (Kelly). I don't want for one minute to compare him to Jim, that's not fair to him. The fact is that he's got some growing to do and I think he'll go through some growing pains so fans need to be patient with that. But I do think that the future is bright and some good pieces are in place."

Marrone comments on Kelly diagnosisPosted by on June 3, 2013 – 4:57 pm
Bills head coach Doug Marrone did speak with Jim Kelly at his golf tournament gala Sunday night and was made aware of his condition. He commented on Kelly's situation while making his first visit to the St. John Fisher campus in Pittsford in preparation for training camp.
"Cancer in whatever form it may be really affects all of us in some way," said Marrone. "We can all reach out and we can all feel it. I saw Jim Sunday night and he was in good spirits and the people around him were very supportive. I think for myself and the organization obviously our prayers go out to Jim and his family and everyone who is touched by this disease.
"It's tough. I just went through it, my wife and family with someone, a young girl. To hear it happen to Jim, it just makes you think and makes you realize. You just do the best you can with your prayers and wish his family the best and for a speedy recovery."

Kelly discussing cancer fundraisingPosted by on June 3, 2013 – 4:48 pm
It's only been a couple of weeks that Jim Kelly and his family has known definitively that he has cancer, but in making his diagnosis public Monday, Kelly is already considering a fundraising effort to fight the disease.
Already a champion for a countless number of children's causes including his own Hunter's Hope Foundation named after his late son, Kelly sounds prepared to explore organizing fundraising efforts for cancer awareness, prevention and most importantly a cure.
"We have done so many things to make a difference for so many people, whether it's kids… I know I've already talked to (Bills VP of Communications) Scott (Berchtold) to see if we can set something up to help kids with cancer," said Kelly. "I know with my son's foundation I've got my hands full with what we're doing there, but if what's happened to me can help other kids down the road can bring more awareness to certain types of cancer then we'll do that. Everybody understands that that's something the whole country and around the world is trying to kick and that's cancer."
"I would say we'll have maybe two benefits. One for the Kelly for Kids of Western New York and maybe have to come back twice a year, one for a golf tournament for the Cancer Society or whatever he chooses," said Phil Hansen.

Great job of focusing mate… love how you zoomed us into his world by getting that low perspective. Just shows how seeking that special sweet spot makes the diff between a good shot and a massive one.

Owen & Engine defying Brit food stereotypesDec. 13, 2010
There are an awful lot of ampersands floating around Chicago lately. Bangers & Lace, Blokes & Birds and Owen & Engine have all opened in the past few weeks; the latter two really trying hard to look and feel like a British gastropub. There are cask-conditioned ales and fish & chips, of course, but it also appears that not everyone is phoning it in from the kitchen. Last night, for example, we took the kids to a movie at the City North 14 on Western Avenue, and decided to grab dinner afterward at Owen & Engine, conveniently located across the street.
You immediately feel like you've stepped into a pub in Bath or Leeds, with the dimly-lit sconces and a long bar dominating the front room.

The 20 best albums of 2010Dec. 13, 2010
I should perhaps have noted earlier that, as I have every year since I started compiling this year-end tally as an, um, professional critic, my primary concern was place as always on the albums that moved me most over the preceding 365 days—the records I found myself coming back to again and again for actual pleasure.
Finally, I've come to the Top 20 for 2010. Drum roll, please…
20. The National, "High Violet" (4AD)
On their fifth album, the Ohio-to-Brooklyn transplants really connected with me for the first time. In the past, I've admired their corn-fed Midwestern rock more than I've loved it. Here, the injection of a hefty dose of dark atmospherics gives me the intrigue I've been missing in the past, while the rootsy sincerity is all the more powerful for the contrast.
19. Neil Young, "Le Noise" (Reprise)
Sometimes, crotchety ol' Neil's experiments fail miserably, and sometimes they succeed beyond all expectations.

Chicago theater 2010: Top 5 actorsDec. 13, 2010
All this month, the theater writers from our "Onstage/Backstage" blog are compiling their favorites in 2010 Chicago theater. Today, Kelly Kleiman lists her top 5 actors of the year.
Sean Fortunato in Travels With My Aunt at Writers Theatre. Yes, yes, I've just seen this performance so it's apt to come to mind; but believe me, I've been a fan of Fortunato's at least since 2003, when in Northlight's production of the musical At Wit's End he played the founding editor of The New Yorker. (The New Yorker should have been so lucky.) In Graham Greene's bizarre fusion of Auntie Mame and Under the Volcano, he manages to portray persuasively both a repressed middle-aged English banker and the banker's madcap Aunt Augusta, complete with understated homage to the original Aunt Augusta, the one created by Oscar Wilde. Comic actors rarely get their due, so I've put him first. His comic chops are incomparable. Long may he wave.

Beginning of Treatment for L-carnitine Deficiency
3 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer2858827 on Dec 07, 2010
I ordered this supplement because my son was diagnosed with a genetic carnitine deficiency. He has great insurance and is able to get his prescribed liquid L-carnitine for a low price. I have no insurance but his specialist told me I would also need 300 mg. of L-carnitine supplement daily. I began taking the 1000 mg type and then decided to switch to the 3000 mg. type so that I can take it in one dose daily. We were told it takes about six months to a year for the supplement to work. Believe me, without going into details, if this works for me like I believe it will, you will have women all over the country ordering your product. With my experience with this disease, I believe I know something that doctors and drug companies don't. My story is a long and intensly personal one so I won't go into details yet. I hope to soon be telling everyone about how your product has helped me. I'm starting at one star and moving up!
Excellent product

My daughter needs this supplement for CVS. It is the only liquid L-Carnitine we have found that she likes the flavor. We have been using this product for over a year and will continue to do so.
Very good

I was surprised how well this worked. I have taken L carnitine for years, and when I tried this, I immediately could tell a positive energy difference.
Using Dr. Sinatra's recipe to keep the ticker healthy
4 people found the following review helpful
Posted by DAB598 on Nov 03, 2011
That recipe is: Fish oil, CoQ10, L-Carnitine, Magnesium, and D-ribose. I take this combo once per day.
Heart healthy.

Statins have bad side effects, for me the muscle pain has been awful. CoQ10 has helped the most but adding L-Carnitine, Magnesium and vitamin E really works.

How To Cook Rice
May 11, 2011 12:00 pm
How to make perfect rice every time
Rice is a staple of many cuisines and is quick and easy to cook if you know what to do. There is no shame in using an electronic rice cooker, but our stovetop method for how to cook rice will give you perfect results every time. We'd give you troubleshooting advice, but seriously, just follow these instructions and your rice will be tight.
What you will need:
Measuring cup, water, pot with lid, salt, rice, wooden spoon, fork
What to do:
- For every cup of rice, you will need 1 3/4 cups of water. Pour the water into a large pot with a tight-fitting lid. Bring the water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
- Add your rice to the boiling water.
- Cover the pot, and turn the heat to low. Let the rice simmer for about 18 minutes. Do not open the lid and check the rice. The rice doesn't want to see you now.
- Take the pot off the heat, but keep the lid on. Let the rice steam in the pot for another 5 minutes. Again, do not remove the lid or peek.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and serve.

The Pipiwai Streams feeds these falls and numerous pools starting 2 miles inland. The easiest to reach and the nicest pools are located near the shoreline. The land where the Seven Sacred Pools are situated was donated to the Haleakala National Park system so that the pools would forever be open to the public. This is a natural playground for locals and tourists alike. There is hiking, historical sites, "cliff" jumping, pool swimming, and interesting people watching. The area is always crowded on weekends and, even though there is a large gravel parking lot, it is often full. Come early to get a spot or stay in Hana to assure an early arrival. The Pipiwai Trail, above the Seven Sacred Pools, is one of the best hikes on Maui. It is 4 miles roundtrip, gaining 650-feet in elevation. It takes 2 1/2 - 5 hours to hike, depending on how much nature loving you do. There are several great waterfalls along the route with the final destination being Waimoku Falls, falling 400-feet down a sheer lava rock wall. Along the Pipiwai Trail is Infinity Pool. It has a row of thick rocks that keep you from plunging over the 200-foot waterfall during normal flow times. This pool is much more secluded than the more popular Seven Sacred Pools. Directions: Take Highway 31 south from Hana. The parking lot for all falls and trails is located just past Mile Marker #42 on the ocean side of the road. Useful Information: Numerous pools and waterfalls Great hikes Historical site and heaiu nearby Beautiful, picturesque setting Portable toilets Large, gravel parking lot Concessions usually available on the weekends No lifeguards Use extreme caution before jumping into the pools - check for hidden rocks and depth of pool first NEVER dive into the pools Lava rock is VERY slippery when wet - wear beach shoes for protection and safety Bring water 1/2 mile loop trail leads to the Seven Sacred Pools Flash flooding is possible. Monitor weather conditions at all times and be prepared to leave the area quickly in case of a flood.

Is this black seed plant ?
abdulmajeed_1April 16, 2014
Hi im photographer , i was in Sirlanka and i have been told that plant is : the Black seed ( Nigella sativa ) :
it was surprise for me, so can any1 confirm that ?
fatamorgana2121(Zone 5/6)
I was going to suggest a Piper plant as well but the seeds didn't match what I knew of pepper.
By the way, I see the seed picture above came from a Wikipedia entry for Nigella Sativa. The plant pictured is most certainly not that and so that is not the correct picture for the seeds.
This post was edited by fatamorgana on Wed, Apr 16, 14 at 15:47
TulsaRose, Tulsa OK(7a)
I have to agree with FataMorgana, the image looks very much like Piper nigrum, "Black Pepper Plant." Maybe the reference to black seeds would be the black peppercorns?
Here is a link that might be useful: Piper nigrum plant

I am a commodities broker, my X collegaue has stolen my clients. i work with a trading school, who i introduced my x -colleague to the mentor, my X-colleague then left our firm to go to another firm, he contacted the mentor of the school and took all my bussiness after having knowledge of the commission the clients were paying and low balling me.. this has taken about a 1/3 of my business away from me, is there anything that I can do legally? thank you, Richard Kontra, 818-606-1140
Lawsuit / Dispute Attorney
It is not possible fir to say for sure whether or not you have a claim. It is possible that you have claims for intentional interference with contractual relationships and other business torts, but it is far from clear. It could be that fair competition is a defense to some or all of your claims, but again, it is not possible to tell based on this outline of the facts.
I strongly suggest you start contacting business lawsuit and litigation lawyers about your potential claims here. I have litigated these types of cases, and can tell you that (1) you need an exceptionally strong relationship with your lawyer to make this type of case; and (2) this type of fight can be quite bitter.
Litigation Lawyer
You may have a claim for misappropriation of trade secrets, if you took reasonable steps to keep your client lists and commissions charged confidential.
Business Attorney
If there was a noncompete clause in the contract your ex colleague had with you or your brokerage, you may seek to enforce it. However, I suspect that if such a clause existed in the contract you would have raised it in your question. Additionally, you may have causes of action for misappropriation of trade secret, unfair competition, intentional interference with contract or intentional interference with economic advantage. Give me a call and I would be happy to discuss with you at no charge. My direct line is 949-954-0346. I will be available after 10 AM today.
