Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
St. Boniface fire sends one to hospital
A fire in the upstairs room of a two-storey house forced the evacuation of four occupants, sending one to hospital.
Seven fire trucks responded to the blaze just after 6 p.m. Friday at 325 Provencher Boulevard in North St. Boniface.
"There was a fire that was well-involved by the time we pulled up," said Albert Sigfussion, fire platoon chief. "A lot of live fire and smoke coming out. Crews entered the building and were able to extinguish it in a quick manner."
The four people in the house, three women and one young boy, evacuated the building before the fire crews arrived. One women was taken to hospital as a precautionary measure for carbon monoxide poisoning.
Sigfussion said it took crews about seven minutes to extinguish the blaze and it is now under investigation for cause and damages.

Harvin Plans to Return to practice Next Week
Posted By Damian Arbuckle On October 17, 2013 @ 12:59 PM In NFL | No Comments
[1]The Seahawks have shot off to a 5-1 start this year and they've done it without their most important offseason acquisition: wide receiver Percy Harvin. However, Seattle won't be without Harvin much longer, the 25-year-old receiver is set to begin practicing with the Seahawks next week, according to NFL.com.
Harvin has been out since undergoing surgery on a torn labrum in his hip on Aug. 1. A few weeks after the surgery, the Seahawks placed Harvin on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list, which meant Harvin would have to sit out at least the first six weeks of the season.

What makes them 'anti-police' (apparently) is that they challenge the misuse of those powers, sometimes emotionally, sometimes robustly, often persistently because they see that things haven't changed or they're not changing quickly enough. They're not waiting 30 years, they're raising it now, because it is happening now. If that's what makes someone anti-police then I, like 'them', am guilty as charged.
The disgraced threesome may have every reason to feel somewhat aggrieved at their treatment. If it is "excusable" for a judge to fall asleep - or appear to do so - during a child's evidence in a rape trial, why should the legal and harmless sexual activities of judges in the privacy of their chambers be "inexcusable"?
The most recent Lancet study on 410 patients in South London with first episode psychosis compares individuals who smoked skunk-like cannabis to never-smokers. It demonstrated that smoking skunk once a week increases your risk of psychosis by two, more than once a week by almost 3 and more than five times a week by more than five times
For some time now, it's been clear that our criminal justice system is not up to scratch in the way it treats victims and witnesses. The very people it is designed to serve and protect have been ignored and mistreated. In some cases, victims have themselves been treated as criminals... While the current Victim's Code of Conduct is an improvement on its predecessor, it is still too easily dismissed by those working in the justice system. It is toothless, and the time has come to give it teeth. Putting it into law would strengthen victims' rights in a whole raft of areas.
Whilst I appreciate the law need be as authoritative as possible thereby requiring the use of ritualistic formal and even archaic language, we must find a way of simplifying matters such that those whom can't afford lawyers but need the support of the law and access to justice, find a way to it without becoming lost in translation.
The idea that the entire Muslim community should be watched for signs of adherence to Islam, which will then lead to potential criminal activity, underpins Prevent and the CTS Act. It would be expected that with such policies and matching rhetoric, the public would begin to see the Muslim community living by Islam as a problem, criminal community that should be ostracised.

I agree that might be a lot of crystal but I think it would work fine as long as you like a sweet, malty ipa. I would cut the honey malt in half though. The the other specialty grains are going to give you lots of sweetness and body. Honey malt is great by should be used in moderation.
Happiness is in the eye of the beer holder
I've decided to reduce the crystal. I don't want a hoppy amber ale, that wouldn't be crisp enough.
I have to admit that I bought the honey malt by mistake. Does it really taste like honey? I've seen descriptions online of a raisin-y taste which is not appealing to me.
Jwood, does the steeping time include chilling time? Also, does this method still maintain the aroma of later additions, or do you get more flavour instead?
Honey malt can give a very good actual honey flavor if used in the right proportions in the right recipe but too much can give you a raisin like flavor. I would describe it as more of a sharp sweetness that can overpower much of the other ingredients. I do a honey ipa and never go over around 5% of the grain bill and it comes out awesome. Since you already have a good deal of crystal you won't need a lot for some honey sweetness. I'd cut it in half or leave it out.
The steeping time does not include chilling time for the flame-out hops. You end up chilling down below the AA isomerization temperature so fast that the extra time won't make a difference. If I remember correctly, the temperature where AA isomerization stops is about 170-175 degrees F. You'll notice after 40 minutes that you are already closer to that temperature anyways (depending on where you are in the world and what the ambient temperature is like).
These additions add more flavor than anything (I do notice a little more aroma after primaries as well though). However, I've never noticed huge aroma from any beer after primary fermentation. Dry-hopping is a necessity for aroma in pale ales and IPA's and will get you what you are looking for. No late addition (or at least no reasonable amount) can compare to a dry hop aroma wise.
Have a recipe revision to post? I'm curious to see where you are at!
Thanks everyone for all the great info. I brewed today. Here's what I did.
I brought the water to
57ppm calcium
6.2 magnesium
118.2 sulfate
22.7 chloride
23 bicarbonate
20 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 5 79.2 %
1 lbs 8.0 oz Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 6 5.9 %
1 lbs 8.0 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 7 5.9 %
8.0 oz Munich Malt - 10L (10.0 SRM) Grain 8 2.0 %
4.0 oz Honey Malt (25.0 SRM) Grain 9 1.0 %
1 lbs 8.0 oz Corn Sugar (Dextrose) (0.0 SRM) Sugar 10 5.9 %
1.75 oz Magnum [16.50 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 11 40.6 IBUs
1.75 oz Centennial [10.00 %] - Boil 15.0 min Hop 12 12.2 IBUs
2.00 tsp Irish Moss (Boil 10.0 mins) Fining 13 -
1.00 oz Cascade [8.30 %] - Boil 10.0 min Hop 14 4.7 IBUs
1.00 oz Chinook [12.10 %] - Boil 5.0 min Hop 15 3.7 IBUs
1.00 oz Cascade [5.50 %] - Boil 0.0 min Hop 16 0.0 IBUs
0.35 oz Amarillo Gold [8.50 %] - Boil 0.0 min Hop 17 0.0 IBUs
1.5 pkg Nottingham Yeast (Lallemand #-) [23.66 ml] Yeast 18 -
1.0 pkg American Ale (Wyeast Labs #1056) [124.21 ml] Yeast 19 -
2.00 oz Cascade [5.50 %] - Dry Hop 14.0 Days Hop 20 0.0 IBUs
2.00 oz Zeus [14.00 %] - Dry Hop 14.0 Days Hop 21 0.0 IBUs
Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 6.9 % Actual Alcohol by Vol: 6.8 %
Bitterness: 61.2 IBUs Calories: 582.4 kcal/l
Est Color: 8.6 SRM
I mashed for a little over an hour at 150 and hit my OG right on at 1.062 (76.3% efficiency which is high for me)
It tasted great so far.
I know that 14 days of dry hopping is long, but I've never been able to taste this "grassy" flavour everyone talks about.
I think I'll carbonate at 2.4 volumes.
That beer turned out great! It was a teeny bit too malty, and not quite as bitter as I would have liked but delicious nonetheless. Oh, and as the dry hopping wore off there was a slight alcohol note to the aroma.
After reading all the comments, I was curious about how much more hop flavour and bitterness I would get in a paler beer and I decided to try a very pale american pale ale with lots of late hop additions - like this:
40L Batch
1.97 g Gypsum (Calcium Sulfate) (Mash 60.0 mins) Water Agent 2 -
1.49 g Calcium Chloride (Mash 60.0 mins) Water Agent 3 -
0.59 g Epsom Salt (MgSO4) (Mash 60.0 mins) Water Agent 4 -
0.10 g Chalk (Mash 60.0 mins) Water Agent 5 -
17 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 6 94.4 %
8.0 oz Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 7 2.8 %
8.0 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt - 80L (80.0 SRM) Grain 8 2.8 %
0.69 oz Galena [12.50 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 9 19.9 IBUs
2.00 oz Cascade [5.60 %] - Boil 15.0 min Hop 10 6.9 IBUs
2.00 oz Cascade [5.60 %] - Boil 5.0 min Hop 11 4.3 IBUs
2.00 oz Cascade [5.60 %] - Aroma Steep 0.0 min Hop 12 0.0 IBUs
1.0 pkg American Ale (Wyeast Labs #1056) [124.21 ml] Yeast 13 -
2.00 oz Cascade [5.60 %] - Dry Hop 10.0 Days Hop 14 0.0 IBUs
2.00 oz Zythos [10.00 %] - Dry Hop 10.0 Days Hop 15 0.0 IBUs
This "pale ale" turned out just as hoppy as the IPA. Huge hop flavour and aroma. I found that the lack of residual sweetness made the bitterness just a little harsh. It made me realize I need to pay a lot more attention to the bitterness ratio of my beers.
Last beer I made in late spring was a kitchen sink brew,where I literally used up all my ingredients. Turned out to be something between a black IPA and a Foreign stout. Turned out pretty good.

Water is everywhere - even in our Story Sparklers story time this morning!
Have you ever observed the weather? A scientist you watches the weather and the atmosphere is called meterologist. The study of the atmosphere and the weather is meterology. We created a weather page to add to your Summer Science Notebook. The activity page includes a short list of non-fiction and fiction books to read, weather observation questions and a weather prediction chart.
If you're looking for more weather information check out these website:
The library's Summer Reading Program is under the theme Fizz Boom Read! We're so excited for a Science Theme Summer!!
In celebration of Fizz Boom Read, the Children's Librarians are creating pages for young scientists to use over the summer and add to their own Science Notebook. Each week we hope to post a new page to print off for more science activities young scientist can do at home with a grown-up assistant. We'll list all our pages on this page: Summer Science 2014, but be on the lookout for individual pages posted on the blog.
During the months of June and July, the library is running a special Family Story Time program called Story Sparklers! Our first story time happened on Monday, June 9. Our Fizz Boom Read theme for the day was WEATHER. We shared some great books and sang a song about weather and danced like ducks in rain! If you are interested in weather books, check out the 551's in Non-Fiction.

Advanced Trial Evidence
This course will focus on evidentiary issues that arise frequently in trials. Each week a vignette or series of vignettes, which address common trial evidence situations, will be assigned. The vignettes will be based on case files, in order to provide continuity throughout the course and for students to see the impact of evidentiary rulings on continuing cases.
Each student will be responsible for weekly written assignments, which may include motions in limine or outlines of direct and/or cross-examination of the witness(es) for vignettes(s). Each student will also be responsible for preparing to offer timely and well-stated objections to the evidence sought to be introduced. Students will be required to understand the rationale for both the introduction of evidence and the objections thereto.

Maria Teresa Guasti is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Milan-Bicocca.
This text provides a comprehensive introduction to current thinking on language acquisition. Following an introductory chapter that discusses the foundations of linguistic inquiry, the book covers the acquisition of specific aspects of language from birth to about age 6. Topics include the language abilities of newborns, the acquisition of phonological properties of language, the lexicon, syntax, pronoun and sentence interpretation, control structures, specific language impairments, and the relationship between language and other cognitive functions.
At the conclusion of each chapter are a summary of the material covered, a list of keywords, study questions, and exercises. The book, which adopts the perspective of Chomskyan Universal Generative Grammar throughout, assumes a familiarity with basic concepts of linguistic theory.

@shvibzks- I did watch the movie last night. Bette Davis was splendid, but overall I found the film disappointing. I spent the majority of it shouting at my screen: "No! That's now how that happened! That isn't right at all!" The book had so much going on that no screen version could really capture it all in a decent amount of time.-Athena

Margaret Thatcher has died...Twitter reacts
08 April 2013 01:55 PM
@Pennyred: There's a lot more to say about Margaret Thatcher, but not on Twitter, and not today.
@holysmoke: Any friend of mine celebrating Lady Thatcher's death: you're an ex-friend.
@Number10Gov: "It was with great sadness that l learned of Lady Thatcher's death. We've lost a great leader, a great Prime Minister and a great Briton"
@GeriHalliwell: Thinking of our 1st Lady of girl power ,Margaret Thatcher , a green grocer's daughter who taught me any thing is possible...x
@Senjohnmccain: RIP Margaret Thatcher, one of the great leaders of the 20th century
@xcarlywhitex: I'm clearly just not as educated as everyone else but who is Margaret thatcher?
@DavidLammy: RIP Margaret Thatcher. Whatever you think of her she will remain a political giant. End of an era.
@davidschneider: Ok, Twitter. It's that moment. Switch Decency settings to maximum and all will be fine
@fieldproducer: Time to find out how accurate this is - "What Twitter will look like on the day that Thatcher dies" http://bit.ly/ZuLrYp
@GaryLineker: Very few divide opinion like Baroness Thatcher. Loved and loathed in equal measure, but remembered by all.

Newts go cheek-to-cheek during mating
The cheek glands of male red-spotted newts produce a high diversity of pheromones, suggesting that attracting females through cheek rubbing might be a more widespread behaviour in salamanders than is currently appreciated.
A curious case of chaetae in the Cambrian
Extraordinarily preserved fossils provide the first evidence of chaetae (or bristles) in molluscs over 500 million years old, but beg the question of why they evolved: increased competition, sensory purposes, or even to mimic sponges?
Sleepy time in the south
Drosophila melanogaster shows a natural latitudinal cline in the duration of night time sleep, such that populations originating in equatorial America sleep in bouts twice as long as northern American populations.
Earwigs care in an unusual way
Earwig mothers, who care for their offspring for several months post-hatching, line their nests with both their own and their offspring's faeces to provide protection against infectious bacteria and fungi, an interesting form of social immunity.
Accurately estimating nucleotide substitutions
Commonly used models can often underestimate the true number of multiple nucleotide substitutions, due to the problem of mutation saturation; a new method of estimating the decline in transition/transversion ratio over time can test substitution model performance.

Error in enzyme name I have just noticed that we, somehow, had the wrong enzyme name for EC:18.104.22.168 in subsection "Methionine and cysteine" of "Results and discussion". The correct name, as present everywhere else in the paper, is "homoserine dehydrogenase" (and not "homocysteine methytransferase" as written). Not sure how that one slipped past us, since an EC number starting with 1 could never be a methyltransferase...Sorry for any inconvenience this switch might have caused.
Update of the U6 phylogeny Comment posted on behalf of Dr Bernard Secher and his co-authorsThe U6 complete sequence HQ651712 of Palestinian origin has the mutations 15626 and 10172. So it is difficult to know if it belongs to the U6a2 or U6a8 subclade. Mainly due to the behavior of the mutation 103 and that mutation 15626 is relatively less frequent (appears in 4 branches of the mtDNA tree of Van Oven and Kayser) than 10172 (appears in 6 branches), we decided in this paper to keep the HQ651712 sequence in the U6a2 subclade. However, recently, a new U6 sequence appeared in the GenBank data base with the id KJ446072. This sequence is very close to the HQ651712 sequence and it is also of Palestinian origin. This new sequence has the mutation 10172, but not the mutation 15626. So we can conclude that both sequences HQ651712 and KJ446072 belong to the U6a8 subclade, and that the mutation 15626 occurred only recently in the HQ651712 sequence. See the revised U6 tree here: http://secher.bernard.free.fr/DNA/AdditionalFile2_new.xls The van Oven and Kayser build 16 had already the correct phylogeny.Accordingly, the mutation 103 is now upstream the two subclades: U6a2 and U6a8. U6a2 is defined by the mutation 15626 and U6a8 is defined by the mutation 10172. The clade U6a2a1 is renamed U6a2a, the clade U6a2a3 is renamed U6a8b. The 2 clades U6a2a2 and U6a2c are joined in one clade named: U6a2c defined by the mutation 195. The clade U6a8 is renamed U6a8a. The ages of these new clades estimated from the Soares calculator are the following:U6a2:16,800 yearsU6a2c: 11,300 yearsU6a8: 20,800 yearsU6a8a: 9,700 yearsU6a8b: 4,200 years Bernard Secher

Stephen B. Bright and Sia M. Sanneh: "Gideon v. Wainwright", Fifty Years Latertags: The Nation, Gideon v. Wainwright, Stephen B. Bright, Sia M. Sanneh
Stephen B. Bright, who teaches at Yale Law School, is president and senior counsel of the Southern Center for Human Rights in Atlanta. Sia M. Sanneh, Senior Liman Fellow at Yale Law School, is an attorney with the Equal Justice Initiative in Alabama.
March 18 marked the fiftieth anniversary of one of the Supreme Court's most celebrated decisions, Gideon v. Wainwright, in which the Court unanimously declared that poor people accused of crimes are entitled to lawyers and that every person "stands equal before the law." But resistance to—and outright defiance of—this landmark ruling endures. Fairness and equality are in short supply in the criminal courts, which have incarcerated 2.3 million people, a grossly disproportionate number of them people of color. Because a major consequence of poverty is often inadequate representation, racial discrimination in the system as a whole—from stops by police, to disparities in charging, to the exclusion of blacks and Latinos from juries, to the severity of sentences—often goes unchallenged and even unremarked upon.
On the same day they decided Gideon, the Supreme Court justices handed down a ruling in Douglas v. California, which quoted an earlier ruling by the Court: "There can be no equal justice where the kind of trial a man gets depends on the amount of money he has." But in most places this is precisely the case, and it is obvious from the moment someone is arrested. Those who can afford lawyers hire them at once to help them get out of jail and start working on their defense. But many poor people languish in jail for weeks or months without lawyers.
Jacqueline Winbrone was jailed after being arrested in New York because she could not make her $5,000 bail. With no lawyer to seek a reduction, she remained behind bars and was unable to take her husband to his dialysis treatments. As a result, he died. Winbrone's charge was later dismissed.
In many cases, poor people who are arrested spend more time in jail waiting for a lawyer and a hearing than they would spend if found guilty and sentenced. Many, including the innocent, plead guilty simply to get out of jail. As the Supreme Court has observed, the criminal courts are "a system of pleas, not a system of trials." Guilty pleas account for 94 percent of convictions in state courts and 97 percent of convictions in federal courts. In many state courts, poor people plead guilty and are sentenced without lawyers. Others have lawyers who are burdened with so many cases they have only a few minutes to spend with them, and so they plead guilty after brief conversations—hardly legal representation. It is not uncommon for defendants who plead guilty to have little or no understanding of the consequences of their pleas, such as deportation, denial of business or professional licenses, exclusion from public housing and other benefits, and loss of the right to vote....

It varies by fleet action. They haven't revealed the whole system, but the major factors are interactions and damage/kills against objectives. Not dying also counts pretty high - you don't seem to be penalized for dying, but it does lock you out of gaining points for a while while you respawn and fly back to the battle.
Romulan Temple I've managed to take first without firing a single shot because there's a huge number of interaction objectives that count fairly heavily. Same applies on Breaking the Planet, there's a huge number of interactions you can rack up points on, but also swarms of enemies and more kill objectives.
Gorn minefield you can make up for wasting the first phase chasing the mineral samples by getting most of the repair interactions in the second.
Klingon Scout Force you can end up ahead by not wandering like most people do - this one never has enough ships spawned in the first two phases to fill the objectives, so people tend to spread out and kill what is spawned while waiting, but my system for reliably getting 1st/2nd is to stay in the objective area and be the first one on top of the respawns when they start.
Starbase 24 there's no interactions and ships spawn in large, tight groups, so indiscriminate AOE damage is usually the way to go, try to target Negh'vars in the second objective and let the AOE clear out all the rest.

The symptoms of gout usually come on suddenly and severely. They are referred to as gout attacks, which can happen one time or several times. A single gout attack usually only affects only one joint, but recurrent attacks may affect more than one joint. The big toe is the most common site of gout. Other sites include the ankle, heel, foot instep, wrist, elbow, or fingers.
Attack symptoms often develop rapidly overnight and worsen over the next 24-48 hours. Common symptoms in the joint include:
Recurrent attacks can lead to permanent joint damage, especially if gout remains untreated. Uric acids can build up and create deposits called tophi. They can lead to:
High levels of uric acid in the body can also lead to complications in other areas of the body, such as the kidneys.
