Anze Kopitar C LA 2 Months
Kopitar dished out two assists in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks.
The beat goes on for Kopitar, who is now up to 37 points in 44 games despite a horrendous start to the season. He's not shooting the puck all that much (77 shots on goal) but owners won't mind as long as he keeps earning his way onto the scoresheet with regularity as has been the case over the last 16 games (24 points).
Anze Kopitar C LA 2 Months
Kopitar had a hand in both of the Kings' goals in their 2-0 win over the Leafs on Monday. He dished out an assist and supplied the game-winning goal in his 17:21 of ice time.
The sizzling Kopitar made his mark on the game right away, scoring 37 seconds into the contest to give Kings goalie Martin Jones all the support he would need on the evening. Kopitar has been absolutely sensational since mid-December, quelling any doubts about his standing as one of the game's best centers. He's recorded a mind-boggling 21 points (four goals, 17 assists) over his last 12 games.
Anze Kopitar C LA 3 Months
Kopitar scored his ninth goal of the season and had an assist in Saturday's shootout loss to the Jets.
Kopitar is now riding a three-game point streak and has a whopping 18 points in his last 10 games. After a slow start, Kopitar has turned things around big time, with five of his last 10 outings being multi-point efforts. With nine goals (five on the power play) and 32 points in 39 games on the season, the top-line center is once again proving to be one of the most lethal fantasy options around. Keep him rolling.
Anze Kopitar C LA 3 Months
Kopitar piled up three assists in Saturday's 7-6 home loss to the Predators.
Kopitar has been a one-man wrecking crew since mid-December, racking up a staggering 16 points over his last nine games. With 29 points in 36 games, he's inching closer to the point per-game pace we've all come to expect from Kopi after a disastrous start that saw him record just 13 points in his first 28 games.
Anze Kopitar C LA 3 Months
Kopitar notched a goal and assist -- both of the power-play variety -- in Saturday's win over the Sharks.
After sleepwalking through the first two and a half months of the season, Kopitar has been dialed in offensively over his last five games. During that time, he's rattled off two goals and 10 assists, quelling any talk about him no longer being one of the game's elite pivots.
Anze Kopitar C LA 3 Months
Kopitar dished out three helpers in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Coyotes.
Now this is more like it. After registering as one of the fantasy hockey's bigger disappointments for the first two and a half months, Kopitar has now produced eight points over his last two contests, with five coming on the power play. That massive uptick in production has vaulted up his season total to a still-substandard 22 points in 31 games, but it at least gives him a fighter's chance of reaching the 70-point plateau again if he can manage a point-per-game pace the rest of the way.
Anze Kopitar C LA 3 Months
Kopitar turned in a massive game Thursday against the Blues, scoring a goal and dishing out four assists -- three of them on the power play -- in a 6-4 win.
Welcome to the season, Mr. Kopitar. He'd collected only four points in the last 12 games, so Kopitar produced more offense Thursday than he had in the entire month prior. Although he'd produced a couple points over the last four games, Kopitar had managed to go an impressive minus-8 in that span, dropping him into the negatives for the season. He hasn't finished with a negative rating since 2008-98. And even with the huge evening, he still only sports a modest 19 points in 30 games on the year. This was nice, but more consistency would be nicer.
Anze Kopitar C LA 4 Months
Kopitar bagged a power-play goal in Thursday's 5-3 victory over the Senators.
Kopitar sent a backhander past Sens goalie Craig Anderson to shift the momentum back to the Kings' side after the opposition had scored shorthanded just 36 seconds earlier. The tally snapped a 10-game goal drought for Kopitar, who had also gone without an assist in the previous three matches. With only 13 points in 26 games on the season, Kopitar is on track for what would be by far the worst season of his nine-year career.
Anze Kopitar C LA 4 Months1 Comment
Kopitar ended a five-game scoring slump with a pair of assists Tuesday in a 2-1 win over the Bruins.
Things have been awfully slow for Kopitar this year, as he's got just a dozen points to show for 22 games -- by far the worst scoring pace of his career. Not coincidentally, he's shooting at the lowest rate of his career, with just 36 shots on goal so far. We already saw Kopitar's shot rate decline last year, but it was forgivable when he scored 70 points anyway. If this latest decline persists -- and he's shown no sign of coming out of it lately -- Kopitar will be in danger of losing his elite status. But at just 27 years old and with not much history of injury, he shouldn't be seeing his skills degrade like this already. There may be an unknown factor at play here.
Anze Kopitar C LA 4 Months
Kopitar picked up a pair of assists Tuesday and now has three multi-point efforts in his last five games.
Kopitar struggled at times to start the season but looks to have ironed out those issues lately. He now has seven points in his last five games after recording just three points in his first 11 games to start the season.

Paying off: Rising employment will increase demand, primarily for online providers
IBISWorld's Tax Preparation Services market research report offers insightful industry analysis and research into the market at the national level. IBISWorld's in-depth industry market research is presented in a logical and consistent format. The industry report contains key industry statistics, market size, industry trends, and growth and profit forecasts for a 5-year outlook period.
The Tax Preparation Services industry experienced a slight downturn during the recession due to falling national employment and a decrease in disposable income. However, the industry rebounded in 2011 as the national unemployment rate fell, and revenue increased as more Americans were required to file tax returns. Still, the industry landscape has begun to change, with consumer preferences increasingly trending toward operators that provide online filing options. Although improving economic conditions are expected to support industry revenue growth over the next five years, some operators' performance will be stunted, as online providers threaten traditional brick-and-mortar establishments... purchase to read more
Households in all socioeconomic groups across the United States use the services of tax preparers. Consequently, industry establishments and revenue are distributed in line with regional population. Many people use the tax preparation firm nearest to them, out of convenience. When an area is underserved, more firms move into that area to stake a claim in the market. Similarly, firms tend to move locations when competition is too high and profit margins begin to suffer.
About 85.1% of operators in this industry are non-employers that do not have the capacity or market power to provide services beyond their own neighborhood. While some of these firms are part of a national network, they primarily serve local consumers... purchase to read more
Firms in this industry provide tax return preparation services to individuals but do not offer accounting, bookkeeping, billing or payroll process services. Although the offices of CPAs are excluded from this industry, basic knowledge of tax law and filing requirements is required.

Arizona Diamondbacks
D-backs, Aaron Hill agree on three-year extension
The Arizona Diamondbacks and second baseman Aaron Hill agreed to terms on a three-year contract extension worth $35 million, according to ESPN MLB insider Buster Olney.
Hill, 30, is coming off a very good season in 2012 -- his first full year with the Diamondbacks. Hill hit 26 home runs, knocked in 85 runs and hit a team-leading .302. He won the Silver Slugger Award for National League second basemen.
Hill also became the first major league player to hit for the cycle twice in one season since Brooklyn's Babe Herman did it in 1931. Hill hit for the cycle on June 18 in a 7-1 win over the Seattle Mariners. Eleven days later, he turned the trick again in a 9-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers.
The Diamondbacks acquired Hill in a trade with the Toronto Blue Jays in August of 2011 that also brought shortstop John McDonald to the desert and sent second baseman Kelly Johnson north of the border.

Jaipur: Former Rajasthan minister Babulal Nagar, accused of raping and assaulting a 35-year-old woman, has been suspended from the Congress party on Monday.
Meanwhile, a video has also emerged on Monday allegedly showing his close associate trying to bribe and threaten the complainant and her family into taking back the case.
In the video the associate can be seen offering the family Rs 7 crore. The video was shot by the complainant's son and will be presented before the court as evidence. The complainant had earlier alleged intimidation by Babulal Nagar.
A 35-year-old woman had alleged that Nagar had raped and assaulted her at his official bungalow on September 11.
Nagar resigned as the minister for dairy, khadi and rural industries following an FIR against him by a woman alleging that he had raped and assaulted her at his official bungalow on September 11 after taking her there on the pretext of giving her a job.
The 53-year-old Nagar, however, has denied the charges, saying that his political rivals were trying to "frame" him ahead of Assembly elections in the state.

Since no one likes a spoiled episode, figured I'd warn people.
I was unfortunately a victim of this. I had thought a topic if his (hers?) was about episode 2 by the title. I read the first line only, but that was still too much spoilers for a game I can't play until tomorrow (I bought the PC version).
Very nice for this person to mark episode 3 spoilers:mad:. Very much appreciated. And yes, refill water, I know you are doing this on purpose.
@refill water said: what am i ruining? you chose to read it
I CHOSE to read a post I thought was about episode 2! Don't put this blame on me.
I guess I will stay off the board until I play the game because people like you have to ruin someone else's enjoyment.
i didnt ruin anything? you can buy the episode tomorrow.. just be patient like everyone else.
Refill, you're deliberately posting misleading titles to spoil people. Granted, TWO of the three things that happened to you in your game ARE AVOIDABLE, but you're being a jerk. One more post like that and I will ban you. Making a new account will be banned as well until you've had time to cool off. Don't do it.
so you're saying i cant be creative with my titles for more eyes to read? do you have zero understanding of advertising?

The Caltech Y enriches student life and challenges students to grow into responsible citizens of the world.
The Caltech Y is proud to announce Make-A-Difference Day 2015. All members of the Caltech community are invited to participate in one of close to 20 community service projects. Projects are led by other students and will be 3.5 to 6 hours depending on the project. Meals, transportation, and T-shirts are provided.
This interactive leadership lab will focus on critical decision-making and embracing uncertainty while leading through turbulent times. Through a customized role-play simulation for the Caltech community, participants will be required to make decisions while acting as executives within a company and presenting critical strategic plans to a Board of Directors. Participants will review their understanding of fundamental leadership skills by testing them against unpredictable constraints of time and resources, while reinforcing the often underestimated urgency of stress-management.
The Caltech Y sends out a weekly email highlighting Caltech Y events. RSVP for events and get more info about upcoming programs. You can self-subscribe to the Y Announcements email list here.
The Caltech Y's Leaders of America Program hosted Martin Luther King Jr.'s visit to Caltech in 1958. Read more about King's visit printed in the Pasadena Star News on Monday, January 19th in honor of Martin Luther King Day.

Last month saw the opening of the Ethelbert Cooper Gallery at the Hutchins Center, the first museum on Harvard's campus dedicated solely to African and African American art. The inagural exhibition, creatively entitled Luminós/C/ity.Ordinary Joy, seeks to capture the multifaceted components that make up African city life through modern art. Equipped only with the knowledge of this title—which itself, I have to admit, wasn't especially descriptive—I decided it was time to check out the new installation, located next to Peet's Coffee in Harvard Square.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Carmelo Anthony made up his mind. He was taking the big shots in crunch time, and there wasn't anything 6-foot-10 All-Star Anthony Davis or anyone else on the Pelicans could do about it.
Anthony scores 42, leads Knicks past Pelicans
"It was just a game where I didn't want to see slip away," Anthony said.
His 12-foot jumper over Davis from the left side of the lane with 1:14 left, followed by a strikingly similar 14-footer over Luke Babbitt half a minute later, capped a 42-point performance that lifted the New York Knicks to 98-91 victory Wednesday night and halted a three-game skid.
Looking to somehow stop Anthony from beating them in the waning minutes, the Pelicans sent Davis to the perimeter to guard New York's prolific scorer. But Anthony had no intention of giving up the shot, and had a plan to create an open look against the NBA's leading shot blocker.
"Without a doubt. I knew once I beat him, just get a little bit of space from him, I had a chance of making the shot," Anthony said.
A night after losing at Memphis, New York blew a 13-point, fourth-quarter lead before Anthony took over.
J.R. Smith had 19 points and Tim Hardaway Jr. added 16 for New York, which lost Iman Shumpert to a sprained left knee in the third quarter. Tyson Chandler had 11 rebounds and a pair of blocks in the final minutes.
Eric Gordon scored 28 for the Pelicans, but was shut out in the fourth quarter. Davis finished with 14 points and 10 rebounds.
Austin Rivers finished with 14 points and Brian Roberts 10 for the Pelicans, who've lost three of four.
It was almost enough in a see-saw game included 16 lead changes and six ties, if only the Pelicans had an answer for Anthony.
"Our help (defense) was trying to get there, but you can't help against a guy like that if you give him one or two dribbles to the basket," Pelicans coach Monty Williams said of Anthony. "He was efficient all night long. ... He hit tough shots. A lot of those shots had a hand in his face."
Then there was one critical, late sequence in which Chandler saved a lost ball after a missed shot and got it to Anthony for a layup
"I just wanted to win. Whatever it took to keep that play alive," Chandler said. "Those kind of plays ultimately help you win basketball games."

What is the average size of a human penis?
The enduring question now has a scientific answer: 13.12 centimetres (5.16 inches) in length when erect, and 11.66cm (4.6 inches) around, according to an analysis of more than 15,000 penises around the world.
In a flaccid state, it found, the penis of the average man is 9.16cm (3.6 inches) in length and has a girth of 9.31cm (3.7 inches).

We've all noticed that, in the Spiderman movies, the hero ejaculates tremendous amounts of protein constantly to make those spider threads he's swinging on and splattering all over the bad guys. Part of that is plausible; spider silk is amazingly strong stuff, and if you could produce it, sure, thin strands would support your weight. The problem is the volume. Mark Lorch calculates how much protein Spiderman would have to consume to make the thread for one scene in the movie.

There're no novels that I like to read so I write my own novels, and then I read them again, and it's the best thing.

I did get to read about their interpretation of development, though.
Well, he did it: the Digital Cuttlefish found a novel argument against evolution. It has to be seen to be believed — this creationist is claiming that the X-Men disprove the theory of evolution.
Already you should be saying "It's a comic book and a movie! It's not real!", and for a bonus you might point out that the biology of the X-Men franchise is ludicrously awful, and in general, the mass media don't understand evolution, but let's give him a chance. Let's see this argument.

Rich-media ads have an average click-thru rate of 0.22%, according to a MediaMind study. That figure improves to 0.34% -- an increase of 54.5% -- when ads meet viewability standards, and are at least 50% viewable for a minimum of one second. More viewable ads also had markedly better post-click conversion rates, the study found. "Perhaps one lesson here is that more expensive placements simply get better results," notes eMarketer.

In his landmark best seller The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell redefined how we understand the world around us. Now, in Blink, he revolutionizes the way we understand the world within. Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant, in the blink of an eye, that actually aren't as simple as they seem. Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept? Why do some people follow their instincts and win, while others end up stumbling into error? How do our brains really work, in the office, in the classroom, in the kitchen, and in the bedroom? And why are the best decisions often those that are impossible to explain to others?
In Blink we meet the psychologist who has learned to predict whether a marriage will last, based on a few minutes of observing a couple; the tennis coach who knows when a player will double-fault before the racket even makes contact with the ball; the antiquities experts who recognize a fake at a glance. Here, too, are great failures of "blink": the election of Warren Harding; "New Coke"; and the shooting of Amadou Diallo by police. Blink reveals that great decision makers aren't those who process the most information or spend the most time deliberating, but those who have perfected the art of "thin-slicing", filtering the very few factors that matter from an overwhelming number of variables.
Drawing on cutting-edge neuroscience and psychology and displaying all of the brilliance that made The Tipping Point a classic, Blink changes the way you understand every decision you make. Never again will you think about thinking the same way.

"Entertaining and illuminating." (Publishers Weekly)
"Gladwell's groundbreaking explication of a key aspect of human nature is enlightening, provocative, and great fun to read." (Booklist)
"Great Listen"
My wife and I are very well read in psychology and weren't expecting much of interest. However, on a long car trip, we were totally fascinated - the miles actually passed too fast. Wonderful book.
cookie fan
"Remarkable reading"
read/listen to this and it will change the way you think about thinking. A great read.
"Awesome book"
Well written, very well read, and fascinating material. I highly recommend it to all.
"not pop science"
Malcom Gladwell presents a series of compelling examples to explain how people make snap judgements. The examples are based upon scientific research, as opposed to "pop science." Gladwell also helps us understand the conditions that cause snap judgements to be right as well as wrong.
Beyond the strong content, Gladwell's voice is easy to listen to.
"Interesting but not inspiring"
This was an enjoyable listen and the author did a great job as the narrator. My main problem with this book, though, was that the author seemed to spend the first part of the book explaining how we should learn to make snap judgements and trust our subconcious to pick up on clues when we make a decision. Then, the second half of the book seems to refute the first part when he uses multiple examples of how using snap judgements can be faulty or dangerous. Maybe I missed the whole point of the book or maybe it would seem different in the printed copy but I still don't know exactly what his argument was after finishing the book.
"Lo in AZ"
This is my new favorite book. I listened to it twice in two days. It is so interesting and well researched.
"A Dissapointment"
I was really excited to listen to this book however I found myself to be disinterested less than halfway into it. It was quite a dissapointment.
"One of my favorite listens"
Very thought provoking. I enjoyed this book immensely. The author's voice is very easy to listen to.
"Interesting, not great"
It is an interesting point of view of the power of our mind and those few first seconds of our perception.
Some good examples to demostrate his theory.

Some primary and high schools in China are working to adjust to a new policy, to take effect 19 March, that limits the amount of homework students can be assigned, eliminates midterm exams and bans the use of exam rankings, among other things. However, it's unclear if such regulations -- which have been adopted elsewhere in China -- will help to reduce students' burden, as parents step in to assign homework and more emphasis is placed on after-school programmes.

Fukushima - For Radiant Health! It'll make a Monster out of you!

Could someone put 30 years into perspective for me?
No problem, I can put it into units that most Slashdot readers are familiar with.
The Library of Congress is 211 years old, so 30 years is around
In comparison, a 2TB hard drive is around
So, in conclusion, Fukushima's cleanup is less than one 2 TB hard drive.

This is what happens when you sell your soul to Brett Favre.
That wasn't me talking. That was a GM I spoke to over three weeks ago when I asked him about the Moss trade. Like me, he was convinced that Favre was behind the acquisition of Moss. Well, now Moss is gone, and soon Favre will be, too, and the foundation is crumbling in Minnesota. What looked like a playoff team is a cracked franchise, with the coaching staff held hostage by players who aren't doing squat.
Favre? He's been horrible. Yeah, I thought he took steps toward respectability after Moss arrived, and I thought I saw glimpses of the ol' Favre in the team's Dallas win. Heck, even at the end of the loss to Green Bay he came this close to connecting with Percy Harvin for the winning touchdown. But he's beaten up and seems to have a foot out the door.
Of course, after this season he'll have to follow Moss, who made little or no impact until he stepped in front of microphones. I caught him after his first game with the Vikings, and he was hopeful that he and Favre could make something happen in the second half of the season. But that changed in the intervening weeks, and nothing stood out more to me Sunday than his failure to try for an almost certain touchdown pass after a defender pushed him. The ball was catchable. In fact, it was a touchdown waiting to happen. But Moss watched it bounce away without making a move.
But that's what you get with Randy Moss, and when the Vikings acquired him they had to know that he could be a distraction. And he was. But in taking on the head coach and his staff he went too far, and so Brad Childress told players Monday that Moss no longer was with the team. I guess that means the Vikings released him, I don't know. But don't tell me Childress is surprised. He knew what he was getting with Moss, and he got it. So he moved to cut his losses.
When you have others like Harvin and Adrian Peterson breaking their necks to make yardage, then watch Moss quit on plays something had to be done, and it was clear that fines were't the answer. Heck, Moss said he'd incur fines for not talking to the media, so what's another $25000 or $50,000 from the club? He was a rotten example to teammates, and he had to go. If the Vikings are going to make a push for the playoffs, they'll have to get it from guys making more than half-hearted efforts for passes, and the indifferent Moss was an example of how not to play the game.
So the Vikings move on without him, and the message is clear: No one is indispensable. If Moss didn't want to behave, then he had to go. And anyone who doesn't give a flip about the rest of the season can follow. I never thought I'd see the Vikings in such disarray midway through the year, but then I never thought I'd see Favre leaving a game on a cart or Moss getting fired within a month.
But why stop there? The defense has been a major disappointment, too. I mean, how many sacks does Jared Allen have? Geez, the Vikings themselves don't have one the past three games. And the tackling is horrid.
This is a club on its way down, and maybe the departure of Moss sends Minnesota to the bottom of the barrel, I don't know. What I do know is that it's a wake-up call for the rest of the team, including Favre. For once, management seems to have acted without consulting the quarterback, and hallelujah. The Vikings have the material to make the playoffs, but they're running out of time and excuses.

Moss release wake-up call for slumbering Vikes
1st Moss and this offseason clean out the dead wood. Favre, Pat Williams, Tavaris Jackson, Winfield, and do something with that o-line before they get a QB killed. The draft is coming and they'll get a decent pick. Draft someone that can actually throw a decent ball (a Luck not a Tebow err Newton), get a young corner and o-lineman to keep your new QB upright. Someone that has some youth and speed beside K.Williams would'nt hurt either. Still have a really good offense for a rookie QB to work with and a racehorse back. You'll be fine and better than this year.

Moss release wake-up call for slumbering Vikes
Come on Favre haters, did you watch the game. Favre was near perfect, the 1 lone int was a ball that hit Harvin in the numbers and got stripped out. March down the field, then Chilly's offensive genious goes to work. Run behind you rookie, avoid the left side (you know All-Pro Hutch).
I don't even mind the Moss move, he clearly didn't even want to play. On the pass interfearence play, the ball landed nearly at his feet and didn't even motion towards it. Last week at GB he didn't even jump on a ball to the endzone on the final play. In the last 2 weeks he did not run a single route at full speed.
Reality check, FIRE CHILDRESS TOMORROW! Then promote Leslie Frasior.

Most likely the season is done for the Vikes. They dont have a WR they can count on - Harvin can make plays when needed but they need another WR to stretch the field.

They may be stuck with the Drama Queen for the rest of the season, but they certainly don't have to start him every week. I'm a Steeler fan but I use tolike the Vikings as well until they dropped their drawers and bent over tgo get Farve. I was hoping that N.E. would knock his ass out for the rest of the season, but I quess this will be another week of drama as to whether Farve will start the next game or not. In any case, they will regret cutting Moss, if for no other reason by not playing him that will probably cut down on Harvin's production, and last but not least they need to dump Childress.

"For once, management seems to have acted without consulting the quarterback, and hallelujah."(story) ----Yes, they probably did consult with Favre, and he said that, this time, he'd be happy to take one on the chin for the team... Wow, this is turning out to be even funnier than I'd predicted it would. I'm wondering what else happened, after the news conference episode, to precipitate all of this? There's likely more to this that we have not heard about. The truth of the matter is that Brad Childress is a total idiot for not seeing this, before trading for Moss. It seems like the rest of the country did. He is an idiot for bringing Favre back too, and now he is stuck with him for the rest of the year, like it or not.

'The Originals': 8 Character Posters Debut (Exclusive)
THR premieres the dramatic (and bloody) one-sheets for "The Vampire Diaries" spinoff, premiering Oct. 3.
It's about to get bloody on The Originals.
The CW has released eight new character posters for The Vampire Diaries spinoff, premiering after the flagship series on Oct. 3, which The Hollywood Reporter exclusively debuts. If they're any indication of what's to come, things aren't looking good for the people of New Orleans.
Forget taglines. The individual posters — all in a dark red (blood-fused) hue — focus solely on the core characters of the The Originals, led by Klaus (Joseph Morgan), his former protege Marcel (Charles Michael Davis) and members of the Original family, Elijah (Daniel Gillies) and Rebekah (Claire Holt). Other characters receiving their own one-sheets: Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin), Sophie (Daniela Pineda), Davina (Danielle Campbell) and Camille (Leah Pipes). Is this a hint that The Originals will be even more deadly than Vampire Diaries?
PHOTOS: 'The Originals' Bloody Character Posters Debut
Executive producer Julie Plec called The Originals more adult than The Vampire Diaries, whose characters are entering college in the new season.
"This is a show that is not about struggling to be a vampire, it's about embracing vampirism and it's about reveling in it," she said at the Television Critics Association summer press tour in late July. "It's about the family community and the supernatural community of an entire city. We've graduated high school and went to college, and they're getting their masters degree on The Originals."
To see the eight character posters, check out the gallery here.
The Originals premieres Oct. 3 at 9 p.m. on The CW.

A window on the past: West Central Printing branches out into historic prints of the downtown Willmar area
WILLMAR -- It started with a simple quest. Stephen and Laura Deleski, owners of West Central Printing, were looking for historic photos of their 1890s-era building in downtown Willmar. They uncovered some vintage postcards depicting many of the grand brick buildings that graced the downtown business district. One thing led to another and Stephen Deleski's interest grew. "We travel a lot, so when we're camping in summer we hit all the antique stores," he said. He began collecting old local photos through auctions and online sales.
WILLMAR -- Give consumers the option of paying their hospital bill online via credit card, and they'll jump at the chance. That was Rice Memorial Hospital's experience after introducing an online credit-card payment option last June.
WILLMAR -- Immigrant stories, as seen through the lens of a movie camera, will be featured in a month-long film festival that opens Monday with a showing of "The Visitor." The free four-week series was organized by the Willmar Area Comprehensive Immigration Reform coalition to help raise community awareness of the issues surrounding immigration. "Why do people immigrate? What are their stories? What happens when they come here? These films help show some of these stories," said the Rev. Naomi Mahler, one of the members of the local coalition. The films will be shown at 6 p.m.
WILLMAR -- Mary Jane Stredde was so busy greeting well-wishers Tuesday afternoon that she hardly had time to sip her coffee. Stredde, 75, shook dozens of hands as friends and coworkers crowded into the community room at Centennial Square to see her receive the district volunteer of the year award from Aging Services of Minnesota. The award is given to volunteers who go above and beyond in donating their time to serving the aging population.
WILLMAR -- Rice Memorial Hospital officials are keeping a close eye on legislative action that could decide the fate of General Assistance Medical Care and those patients who are covered by the program. The Minnesota Senate voted Thursday to override Gov. Tim Pawlenty's veto to restore the publicly funded health care program for low-income single adults.
WILLMAR -- When someone arrives in Rice Memorial Hospital's emergency room with injuries from a highway crash, the whole staff is ready to act swiftly to evaluate, treat and stabilize the patient. The hospital's recent designation as a Level 3 trauma center takes this process up another notch by joining a new statewide trauma system that brings more cohesion to how injured patients are cared for. "It ensures that patients get prompt evaluation and transfer if necessary," said Dr. Scott Abrams, an emergency room physician.
WILLMAR -- The patient was sprawled half in, half out, of his hospital bed. A cigarette was clamped between his lips, inches away from his oxygen supply. On his food tray lay a bloody bandage.
WILLMAR -- Ann Stehn already had a fairly good idea of how Kandiyohi County stacks up when it comes to health. But a new set of county-by-county rankings helps further reinforce where the county is strong and where more work is needed, said Stehn, director of Kandiyohi County Public Health. "This is really a snapshot of how things are," she said. "This just re-emphasizes those things that are key for the health of the whole community." The county health rankings were made public Wednesday.
WILLMAR -- If your vehicle is still parked at the curb in the middle of a snowbank, you're running out of time. The Willmar Police Department is cracking down on car owners who haven't moved their vehicles since Monday's major snowstorm. "We've tagged 34 and hooked six so far," Willmar Police Chief Jim Kulset said Friday. City ordinances prohibit vehicles from being left curbside for more than 48 hours without being moved. The ordinance applies all year.
WILLMAR -- Expect to see a strong presence in St.

Over the centuries, the fortress was successively in the possession of several lords and noble families. In 1784, it suffered from significant damage due to a fire. It was eventually restored extensively in 1837. At present, a section of the castle has been adapted as a museum. It is also a hub for cultural events, and is one of the most popular tourist hotspots of Bruntál District. Don't give this place a miss at any cost!

Owing to its facade, well-preserved artworks and buildings, Kroměříž Archbishop's Palace, along with its gardens is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
»Kurovice Castle
Located in the small Czech town of Kurovice, the Kurovice castle or the Kurowitz fortress is major historical landmark dating back to the 13th Century.

The castle today is privately owned and not accessible to the public.

But for sure he is attorney not to give any fake hope but give you clear idea about your case and what judge may think. He always guide you what to do to get better result and what document you should provide him to handle your case.
He is like analyse your case beyond law and ask you to do what require to do. And get you best result.
My Husband and I were very disappointed with Mr. Galison. We hired him to represent our Son. He was rude and threatening to me. He used profanity when we tried to contact him. He refused to answer questions and did not keep my Son or us informed on the case. When faced with decisions about "offers" or trial, Mr. Galison would not discuss the matters with our Son or us, nor would he respond as to what the options involved. It was impossible to keep him on, as we kept paying him and getting no answers, so we finally dismissed him and retained another attorney, who was everything one could ask for in a lawyer. However, because of Mr. Galison's failure to do his job effectively, we had to pay another retainer and begin all over again. But the new lawyer did more in 3 days than Mr. Galison did in 5 months! He only visited our son in jail ONCE in 5 months, which is unheard of! Thank God we finally turned to someone else!

If you did a 16-slide powerpoint, you'd cover each of the developmental developmental characteristics for each age group on each slide.
For instance:
1. Age group A: physical development
2. Age group B: physical development
3. Age group A: emotional development
Ok for example:
A-Early Childhood
B-Middle Childhooh
A-Early childhood physical development
B-Middle Childhood development
and so on?
One slide would list the physical developmental characteristics of early childhood.
The next slide would list the physical developmental characteristics of middle childhood.
A formal outline would look like this:
I. Physical Development
. . . A. Early Childhood
. . . B. Middle Childhood
II. Emotional Development
. . . A. Early Childhood
. . . B. Middle Childhood
Thank you that helps me out alot..
You're very welcome.
