Purim in Paradise, from Nashville to the Caribbean
Imagine Purim by the crystal clear and warm waters of the Caribbean Sea. No need for warm costumes or shoveling out the entrance to the synagogue. This week not one but two Jewish communities will have the opportunity to do just that, in a modern and multicultural celebration of an ancient Jewish holiday.
The blue sea is the only backdrop the Jews of Santa Marta Colombia have ever known to Purim and other Jewish holidays. They are an emerging community made up exclusively of Caribbean converts who, in the past decade, have built a small but strong chavurah, prayer community. Generally they are on their own when it comes to Jewish life. But this week, students from Vanderbilt University Hillel are joining them.
The 10 day alternative spring break for the visit, organized in conjunction with Be'chol Lashon is introducing these American Jews to the richness and diversity of Jewish life in Colombia. They started in the heights Bogata, where they met the established historic Jewish community before setting off for the shores of Caribbean.
In coming to Santa Marta, these young American Jews will be exposed to a community which, like a time machine, mirrors the origins of their own communities in North America many decades or centuries ago (picture the first Jews of New Amsterdam, or the first Jews to wander into the Tennessee frontier). There is a one-room synagogue with one little Torah and a small Hebrew Sunday School. There is no fancy buildings, no rabbi in site, but bucketfuls of enthusiasm to make Jewish life thrive and grow in a place where it had not before.
At the same time, the Colombian Jews will be confronted with the image of complex hyphenated Jewish American youths coming from a place where Judaism feeds the surrounding culture and is in turn nourished and morphed by it: almost a utopian dream for such a small minority culture, still in its institutional and demographic infancy.
However, as it has happened in the past with other visiting Jews, the common threads of our story will bind us together. The American students will not be eating hamentaschen this year, but rather, they will feast on a very different gastronomy. The music coming out of the speakers (louder than most American are accustomed to) during the Purim celebration will be ripe with foreign cadences. And yet, it will still be Purim. Unequivocally Purim. With Esther and Mordechai and gifts for the poor, and mishloach manot. Haman will be cursed not only in one but in many languages. Despite their differences, in the illustrious tradition of Jewish travelers throughout time, both groups will find common ground.
And it is particularly fitting that this encounter of two cultures is happening on Purim, the first truly global holiday. A people dispersed throughout the 127 provinces of the vast reaching Persian Empire, from India to Ethiopia (meHodu vead Kush) found joint reasons for revelry, and, in doing so, started to take responsibility for one another across the broad expanses of Diaspora, language, and culture. The encounter between Vanderbilt Hillel's alternative spring break and the local Jewish community of Santa Marta will honor and renew the commitment "assumed and received" by the Jewish people on that first Purim of finding common ground in the face of adversity, but also, not less profoundly, in the promise of shared joy.

Amazing and Improbable Transformations for the New Year
Change is an inevitable part of our lives. Most changes, however, happen to us from the outside: we age, we move, the world changes around us regardless of our desires to frame it in a moment. And yet, the most meaningful changes are often those that we set in motion on our own: our voluntary transformations. In the Jewish tradition, the New Year is a time for collective soul-searching and metamorphosis geared towards a positive transformation of ourselves and the world around us.
Central to the liturgy of the New Year is a recurrent Medieval poem which describes God as "a King sitting in a throne of Mercy" (Melekh yoshev 'al kisse Rachamim). But there is something awkward about "a throne of Mercy." Throughout the Bible and Midrash, the idea of a throne is associated with judgment and power. Kings, including the King of King of Kings (God), sit in high and lofty thrones that separate them from the ground. It is from this high and separate place where they dispense justice to the people below. The throne is a symbol of the power possessed by one party and not possessed by the other. Power and judgment seem to depend on differences, on distances and on separation; ideas we seldom associate with mercy, which we imagine thriving in contact and intimacy. As any playground kid knows, forgiveness (mercy´s delicious byproduct) is never really true unless sealed by that handshake or, better yet, a hug. And yet it is incredibly difficult to shake or hug someone who is sitting high above you in a throne.
Thus, the idea of a throne of mercy seems strange, even oxymoronic.
However, it precisely because of this contradictory nature, this image seems to be a perfect metaphor for the time of the High Holidays and the possibilities it encapsulates. The Jewish idea of repentance, teshuvah, is connected to the view of our own free will and our power to create- a power we share exclusively with God. Although we are constrained by limitations set by our physical, social and behavioral surroundings, there is a component in us that is absolutely free and, at any moment, can choose to act in a completely unexpected way. In the same way that a throne does not seem a fitting tool of mercy but rather just the opposite, the power of repentance is such that it can alter the expected shape and function of an object into something that it did not seem it had the power to be.
This wondrous act of transformation is made so much more powerful when it goes viral and the entire Jewish people does it together. That is the true power of the High Holidays: focusing the entire attention and energy of a people into the sole purpose of betterment and transformation. When we, collectively as well as individually, choose to do something unexpected and seek for unity instead of division, for connection instead of hierarchy, for closeness instead of judgment, our true potential as a people and as Jews becomes unlocked.
My personal blessing for these powerful days, pregnant with possibilities, is that we look into those things that we think as unchangeable and set in our lives: our surroundings and ethnicity, our situation and our language. And like the throne of Judgement, see ourselves transformed into an improbable but amazing new people with less hangups, less distance between us and other Jews, between us and our fellow human beings.

Jewish Joy At Carnival
Carnival, Mardi Gras, Carnaval. These words convey exhuberance, dancing, masks, and overflowing joy (and often excess). From Rio to New Orleans, from Venice to Antigua, the week before the beginning of Lent has always been punctuated with explosions of color, music and parades. And although our own Jewish carnival (Purim) is usually just around the corner and this custom is strongly attached to the Catholic calendar, it is very hard for any local citizen or visitor, Jew or Gentile, to strange himself from the celebrations. The cities that follow this ancient custom usually close down completely during the revelry and just by stepping out of the house one is usually swallowed up in the celebrations.
A few weeks ago, I was celebrating Shabbat with an emergent community of Jews in the port city of Barranquilla in Colombia. I had been invited to perform some weddings and oversee some conversions over a weekend that happened to be coincide with the one of the most splendidly colorful carnavals in the world: the Carnaval de Barranquilla (declared one of the Masterpieces of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity). Given that hosting our Shabbaton in Barranquilla during carnaval would make it a logistical nightmare, we decided to take a break and move it to a quiet resort in the nearby city of Santa Marta. The Shabbaton was a moving and peaceful event full of song, words of Torah, and white linen. But as the sun set and we celebrated the weddings for the new couples, the distant carnaval caught up with us. We had not finished sweeping the broken glass from the chuppah when out of nowhere jumped a reveller in the multicolored persona of the Monocuco (a masked and veiled harlequin with a scepter that teases the crowd). The little girls changed their Shabbat best for red polka dotted dresses and crazy hairdoes, portraying "la Loca" (the crazy woman). And, here and there, through the crowd one could distinguish the undisputed traditional symbol of the the carnaval, the Marimonda (a cheeky anthropomorphic character with the trunk and ears of an elephant, a necktie and big round eyes). The joy of the newlywed Jewish couples mingled with the traditions of their beloved city to create a perfect celebration that lasted well into the dawn of the next day. oung and old, costumed and more collected, danced the night away covered in corn starch and foam to the rhythms of traditional horas punctuated with salsas, merengues, porros, and chirimías.
Throughout history, Jews have collected the traditions and flavors of the places we have been blessed to call home. With time, these traditions (like the pagan eastern european braided challah) become part and parcel and even representative traditions of Judaism. When I was in Barranquilla I asked the community baker to bake some challot for the Shabbaton in a shape that was unique to their city. He was hesitant, given that these Jews in the warm shores of the Caribbean have adopted the Ashkenazi braided loaf as their Shabbat standard. I insisted. Just before Shabbat I was presented with the most wonderful challah one could want in the Shabbat of Carnaval, a challah that was at once uniquely Barranquilla and deliciously kosher: a Challah in the shape of a Marimonda. I hope that in centuries to come this will be a tradition treasured by these new Barranquillean Jews, proving once again, that the great power of the Jewish people is to absorb the best of the beautiful world around us and by integrating it into our millenary system of holiness, elevate and preserve snapshots of the beautiful diversity that has always surrounded us.

Psalms for the Philippines
Oklahoma City, where I live, has an amazing Jewish community. And, unfortunately, this amazing Jewish community is an expert in dealing with disaster. From the Oklahoma City bombing to the relentless wave of deadly tornadoes that have hit the area, Okie Jews (as we proudly call ourselves) respond with generosity, gumption, and optimism. So when this week our rabbi told us that two relatives of members of the community were in the affected area of Typhoon Haiyan, the community sprung into action. Donations were requested, support for the concerned families was arranged and we decided to help with our prayers by reciting the entire book of Psalms in the coming month (5 Psalms a day covers it all).
In Jewish tradition, whenever disaster strikes it is customary to accompany our physical response together with a spiritual response: prayer, action, and tzedakah (charitable deeds) are the Jewish response to tragedy. Traditionally, prayer come from the book of Psalms with its evocative language of raw humanity and hope has been a preferred tool to raise our awareness of the suffering of those affected but also to inspire us to compassion and proactivity.
As part of my work with Be'chol Lashon, I teach Torah online to Spanish speaking Jews and Spanish speakers interested in Judaism. Inspired by the Okie response, that night I invited my Spanish language learning community on Facebook to join us in the recitation of Psalms for the victims.
"Why are you doing this?" some wanted to know. The answers came from the students themselves. A student from Honduras recalled the help they had received when Hurricane Mitch hit this country. A student from Colombia emphasized the responsibility he felt as a human being with any kind of human suffering. A Mexican student quoted the words of Hillel "If I am only for myself, what am I?" The support was overwhelming. Scores of people volunteered to connect with my brick and mortar community in Oklahoma to reach out in prayer and action for a community halfway across the world.
These feelings of altruism and generosity are not new but what is surprising is the way in which living in a wired world has expanded the breadth of the planet´s capacity for empathy. In this world where no longer are we separated by six degrees (latest studies calculate it at four and plummeting) of separation. A synagogue in Oklahoma might be the vehicle for scores of Latin-Americans to connect with a tragedy halfway around the world and to do so in unmistakably Jewish ways. Tehilim are being said, and donations are being gathered by total strangers for total strangers. For all of its downsides, our global village has allowed the highest forms of tzedakah (in which both the donor and the recipient do so anonymously) to break the barriers of the pushke and the local synagogue and go global.

A checklist of important tips for designing a mobile commerce landing page, from the CEO of MobiMart.
Development of a dedicated mobile commerce web site brings with it many challenges. Developers need to take care of:
In this post, we will cover some considerations while designing and development of landing page in your mobile site.
Load time is the single most important factor which determines the success of your mobile site. Amazon found that with every 100-millisecond increase in page load time, its sales went down by 1%. Given the short attention span of the user, it's hard to keep him engaged if the load time is more than 4-5 seconds. Our experience with powering mobile sites for some of the top e-commerce sites in India has given us a unique perspective into the best practices for a mobile commerce landing page. Here are some of our learnings.
While every merchant wants to provide the best of feature capabilities on the landing page, it is recommended to start with basic capabilities like Category navigation (ideally text-based), Search, Cart, Account Activity. An ideal landing page should not be more than 100 kilobytes in size with a maximum of 100-200KB of images.
Designers, marketers and engineering teams need to work closely to minimize the number of elements on landing page to help improve page load as well optimize it for end user experience.
Internet Retailer has published a report on how large U.S. retailers measure up on their Mobile site performance.

Roman Augustoviz spends Minnesota's winters covering college hockey, specifically the Gophers, and other University of Minnesota sports. During the summer, he writes about the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx, with a dose of U sports sprinkled in. Follow him on Twitter @RomanStrib.
Indiana coach Lin Dunn said Saturday that the Fever have to approach Game 4 on Sunday night as if they had lost the previous game -- or as if they were trailing 2-1 in the best-of-five WNBA Finals.
"We have to have that same sense of urgency that we had after we lost Game 2," she said. "That's how we have to approach [Sunday] because they are going to come in with an enormous amount of intensity. Just like they did after we stole Game 1. So we have to be ready for that – they are not going to go away."
Erlana Larkins, Indiana's strong post player, admits there is a little more excitement around Sunday's game at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. "Because you know that you're so close," she said. "Overall though, you just approach it like any other game. You play hard and leave it all out on the floor."
Five Colts players have bought 2,500 tickets to Sunday's Game 4 of the WNBA Finals. They were distributed to fans; about 1,000 were in the main lobby at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Saturday morning, buying or picking up tickets.
Antoine Bethea, Robert Mathis, Pat McAfee, Jerraud Powers and Reggie Wayne were the Colts supporting the Fever and four of the five were at Game 3 on Friday.
An Indiana pro basketball team last won a title in 1973 when the Pacers won their third American Basketball Association championship.
All three of the Fever's previous games at home in the WNBA Finals -- two against Phoenix in 2009 and one against the Lynx Friday -- have sold out and a fourth sellout is expected for Sunday. Bankers Life Fieldhouse holds 18,165.
On Friday, the Fever announced they have a jersey sponsor for 2013. It is Finish Line, a sports retailer.
COO Kelly Krauskopf called it the most significant day in franchise history. As recently as 2009, when the Fever reached the WNBA Finals for the first time, the franchise was on shaky financial footing.
Terms of the deal with Finish Line were not disclosed, but other such deals have been worth $1 million annually.
The Fever are the sixth of 12 WNBA teams to secure a jersey sponsor. The Lynx are still hoping to.
the other teams with jersey sponsors are:
Los Angeles Sparks
New York Liberty
Phoenix Mercury
Seattle Storm
Washington Mystics
Dunn on Lynx: "They have got three Olympians, Maya Moore, Seimone Augustus and Lindsay Whalen, tremendous leadership, so they are not going to let this team give up."

By Andrew Nelson
Last week The Japan Times reported that Japanese utilities were selling uranium inventory. The news claimed the Japan Atomic Power Company (JAPC) had already sold some of its inventory to help repay loans taken out over the past year. Tokyo Electric Power is also said to be considering the same plan.
Japan and its return to nuclear power generation has been the main driving factor of uranium prices since the Fukushima meltdown in March 2011 and this latest news has brought the nagging topic of inventory management right back to the fore.
Industry consultant TradeTech notes that Japanese nuclear utilities have traditionally maintained significant nuclear fuel inventories, enough to fuel their reactors for several years. This is to forestall the impact of any unexpected supply disruptions. The first steps taken post Fukushima were to cancel and/or defer upcoming deliveries to minimise any financial burdens. A number of utilities also looked to put their inventories to use via material loans.
If there is any good news to be taken from this, it's that other utilities still have no intention to sell down stock. However, JAPC used to say the same thing and not too long ago, either.

Chicago Blackhawks: Jordan Hendry
Agent: Hendry likely done with Hawks
Read the entire story.
Campbell nearing return
Two of the Chicago Blackhawks' walking wounded defensemen met with the media on Tuesday for the first time since suffering their injuries.
Jordan Hendry is recovering from knee surgery that will keep him out the rest of the season. Brian Campbell, on the other hand, could return as soon as Wednesday from a foot injury that has kept him in and out of the lineup since injuring it in a game against Florida on March 8. The Hawks take on the Panthers again on Wednesday at the United Center.
Campbell called trying to make it through warm-ups the next day in Tampa Bay "a good effort on my part," but wasn't able to play. He tried again in Washington a few days later but couldn't finish the game.
"I kind of left my teammates in a tough spot," Campbell said. "I was kind of disappointed that way."
So he shut it down for a few days and is now close to returning. The same can't be said of Hendry.
Hendry, injured on Feb. 27 in a board collision with Shane Doan of Phoenix, had surgery on his left knee last week.
"I think I knew before I even hit the ice," Hendry said. "I knew it was something in my knee and I knew it wasn't good."
At the time Hendry was getting playing time ahead of the now departed Nick Boynton. He was just finding his groove.
"It was frustrating dealing with it at that time," he said. "I thought I was playing better and getting more opportunity too."
Hendry confirmed it's a "five or six" month recovery and knows he'll eventually have to deal with getting a new contract coming off the injury.
"I'm not worried about that right now," Hendry said. "Just the task at hand here and that's getting back 100 percent. I'm not worried about next season."

Leddy-Hendry pairing proving effective
Since being paired as the Chicago Blackhawks' fifth and sixth defensemen, Nick Leddy and Jordan Hendry have found a connection.
In three games together, they've averaged about 15 minutes of ice time and have helped solidify an untrustworthy part of the Hawks' defense through the first half of the season.
"I think maybe we have similar styles, and we read well off each other," Hendry said after practice on Thursday. "We both like puck possession and making plays instead of rimming the puck around."
Leddy was told he and Hendry are making it look easy.
"We're both good skating defensemen," he said. "We like the simple play which is good. That's probably why it looks pretty simple."
The Hawks' defense has played as well as it has all season over the past three games, which has included two shutouts. The return of Leddy from the minors has given Joel Quenneville the confidence to play the bottom pair more, while resting others.
The one word that keeps popping up about Leddy's game is patience.
"He even fakes me out sometimes," Hendry said with a laugh. "He'll fake skating up the ice, and I think he's going to pass it over or pass it up, and he holds onto it and lets that first forechecker skate right by him. Everyone expects him to unload the puck right there, and so it shows you how much patience he does have."
Quenneville knows a little something about playing the position having done it in the NHL for many years.
"Patience with the puck is an art and a great skill to have," Quenneville said. "I think everyone has a different threshold of patience with the puck.
"I think of [former NHL defenseman Sergei] Zubov standing at the point with the puck and all of a sudden one more guy you fake off, and you hold on, hold on, and all of a sudden things evaporate and you have all kinds of time. Leddy has that ability to wait people off."
It doesn't take a hockey expert to notice it. Watch him with the puck. He'll take that extra breath or two before moving it, or moving with it.
"It's a little natural," Leddy said. "There isn't a lot you can do to practice it. That extra pause can open up some plays that you may not have seen."
Quenneville agreed with that notion, making Leddy's play a bit unique among Hawk defensemen.
"It's nice to watch other people do it, but it's a different level of trying to implement it in your own game," Quenneville said. "You want to make it simple and easy because sometimes the longer you wait, you can get yourself in trouble. There's a balance and fine line there."
As for faking out his defensive partner the soft-spoken Leddy said, "I try not to do that."
As long as he's faking the opposition, no one is complaining.
Quenneville opts for flexibility
After sending down two forwards to the minors on Tuesday, it was about their only option. The Hawks only have 20 players on their roster. John Scott and Jordan Hendry will start at forward with Fernando Pisani as their center, but it sounds as if coach Joel Quenneville may not give the natural defensemen a regular shift every time out.
"We can fit forwards and play them a little bit more in those roles, too," Quenneville said. "It gives you a lot of options and flexibility as well. It gives you an extra D-man or two if you need them at the other end, too. I've been in lineups where you have more than eight on defense more than once. It can work."
Scott has played some games at forward already while Hendry had a handful at that position last season.
"It's a little different look for me, but I'm excited about it," Hendry said. "It should be fun. I played forward growing up, too, so it's not completely different to me."
Bickell returns: After being a healthy scratch the past two games, Bryan Bickell is back in the lineup. Quenneville wants the big body to be hard to play against. Bickell says he got the message. Which was? "To be more focused," Bickell said Wednesday. "I started off well, but my focus wasn't there. That's why he took me out of the lineup, to put a little fire underneath me. I need to be physical. I'm a big guy."
No excuses: To the Hawks credit they haven't complained about the run of injuries that have occurred in the first month of the season. Dave Bolland and Marian Hossa are on the shelf, but other teams have had it worse. New Jersey announced on Tuesday they would miss their captain, Zach Parise, for three months. The Hawks played Los Angeles without Drew Doughty and Minnesota was missing two of their top six forwards when Chicago was there on Saturday.
"Timing is important, too," the recently healed Brian Campbell said. "If you have a lot of injuries it's tough to win a Stanley Cup, but if you get them early you can get them out of the way."
So does Campbell expect a demoralized Devils team?
"Actually, they're dangerous, right now," Campbell said. "But if we take care of what we do and play our style, we'll win. We want to control the game."
A battle for last two spots on defense
If you've forgotten about them, you wouldn't be alone.
So much has been written and talked about in regards to the Hawks' top four defensemen, as well as the young group they have on the horizon, that Hendry and Boynton have slipped under the radar. Both were free agents, but the Hawks decided to bring them back and give them a chance at those overlooked, but important, fifth and sixth defensemen roles.
"They did a good job playing that role last year," coach Joel Quenneville said Sunday after the second day of training camp. "The fact that we were able to retain both guys gives us that depth and that balance and that predictability you want to have."
"That was my goal this summer, to hopefully get in that role there to get in every game," Hendry said. "I just want to play good in training camp here and show that I can play every game."
Hendry played most of the postseason but was removed late in the Stanley Cup finals in favor of Boynton. Boynton, who came over in a mid-year trade with Anaheim, played in the final three games and was on the ice in Game 6 when Patrick Kane scored the Cup-winner.
"It was a big deal because it got my name on the Cup," Boynton quipped. "But yeah, it was a big deal, it was good for my confidence. I hadn't played in two months and so it was nice. But it's a new year so I can take that experience and move forward."
For Hendry, coming out of the lineup at that time wasn't easy to swallow.
"No one likes to sit out, especially in the Stanley Cup finals but it was a good run for me," Hendry said. "I played 15 games, and no hard feelings, but I would have liked to have played."
Hendry is hopeful it doesn't happen again while Boynton would just like to stay in one spot. Playing for four different teams (in the minors and in the NHL) a season ago, Boynton isn't taking anything for granted.
"Everybody is fighting for a spot and that includes me, Jordan and John [Scott]," Boynton said. "One day at a time. I've been doing this for a while. Lots of stuff can happen. I'm just trying to do my best here."
Boynton knows one thing: He'll get a fair shake with Quenneville.
"I've had some terrible people as coaches but Q is fair and honest and that's all you can ask for as a professional."
While the Hawks have young defensemen, such as Nick Leddy and Shawn Lalonde, in camp, it would take a lot to move out one of the veterans. Scott is part of that group as well, so three players will battle for two spots. It's why Boynton says he never buys, just rents.
"I never unpack," he said. "You never know."
Roster breakdown: Final 'D' pairing
Between now and training camp we'll break down the Hawks roster. Finishing off our look at the defense, here are three veterans who will battle with each other as well as Hawk prospects for the final two spots on the ice:
Jordan Hendry, Defenseman
Experience: He's played in 92 games in the NHL over the last three seasons, all with the Blackhawks.
Contract Status: Signed a one-year deal this offseason paying him $600,000. He'll be an unrestricted free agent after the season.
Jesse's take: This season could provide a big opportunity for Hendry. Unless a rookie prospect beats him out, he should be a mainstay as the 5th or 6th defenseman on the team. He has the wheels and puck handling ability to fit in nicely with the Hawks' style, but his decision making has to be better. As good as Niklas Hjalmarsson's instincts are at a younger age, Hendry has work to do in that part of the game. Sometimes it's holding onto the puck too long, sometimes it's getting caught up ice at the wrong time, but the foundation for growth is there. He's also a guy who can play some fourth-line minutes at wing if needed. Another candidate for some penalty killing time, he'll need to show he can make the right decision at the right time with the puck. If he plays a full season, a 5-goal, 15-assist year is not out of the question, but he is a candidate to get benched if early game decisions are poor.
Nick Boynton, Defenseman
Experience: Entering his 9th season in the league. Was acquired mid-year from Anaheim.
Contract Status: Signed a one year, $500,000 deal this offseason. He'll be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.
Jesse's take: His career seems to be slowly winding down, but a surprise start in the final three games of the Stanley Cup finals may have revived it. That might be a little dramatic, but he certainly held his own entering a pressure situation after not playing in the postseason up to that point. A former first-round pick, he's a stay-at-home guy these days, and what he lacks in speed he can make up for in experience. And then there was that beating he took from the fists of his former teammate James Wisniewski at the end of his first game as a Hawk. He was retaliating for the cheap shot Wisniewski put on Brent Seabrook. It showed some serious heart to his game, especially considering his rookie status with his new team. Boynton is no sure thing to make the Hawks or play in many games, but he is an insurance policy on the back end. There is also nothing to say, when it's all said and done, that he and Hendry aren't the final defensive pairing.
John Scott, Defenseman
Experience: He's played 71 games over two seasons with the Minnesota Wild. Entering his first year with the Hawks.
Contract status: Signed a two-year deal this offseason that pays him $512,500 per year.
Jesse's take: The only new defenseman on the team, he brings one major thing to the party: size. Listed at 6-8, 258 pounds, Scott is a heavy hitter and heavyweight fighter. He might be destined to be a fan favorite as the Hawks haven't had an enforcer in quite a while. As you might expect at his size, his skating is a little suspect. He can play some fourth-line wing if the Hawks want him on the ice, but aren't comfortable with him on defense against especially quick or speedy teams. He may not win every fight, but he won't lose many, either. His size and reach are too tough to handle, even from the best of them. Expect him to fight early and often to ingratiate himself to his new teammates and fans. Like most fighters, he has a kind and laid back demeanor off the ice, sure to be a favorite with the media as well.

Rival Canucks could be Hawks' biggest test
I can't figure Ryan Kesler out, not that I'm trying too hard. He jumps Andrew Ladd in the previous game in Vancouver, and then calls him a coward, but then states before and after this contest he wanted nothing to do with him. In fact, it's what he told Ladd throughout that first shift. After the game he says his teammates "told him to leave him alone" and it wouldn't be a "fair tradeoff" if they both had to sit in the box for five minutes. He used one word -- coward -- to call out Ladd. I'll do the same to him: Lame.
Anybody that watched the game knows Cristobal Huet was more than on his game in the first period. After the Hawks failed to score on their 5-on-3, it was psychologically important for them to keep Vancouver off the board when they had their two man advantage. Huet made no less than six saves on that ensuing power play -- none better or flashier than his glove save on Mikael Samuelsson. I hate to say it like this, but it was Antti Niemi-like in terms of showing athleticism. And it made up for the whiff he had in New York on Richard Park's goal. But it was arguably his best sequence of the season and certainly best in a long while. Alas, he didn't have a great game because at least one of the goals he gave up was soft, and maybe one or two of the others were as well.
I made sure to ask both sides if this rivalry was actually real or just media-driven. No one hesitated. It's real and growing. Remember, it wasn't just Ladd and Kesler that went at it. Alexander Burrows isn't exactly a Hawk favorite either. And we saw the Hawks who can get tough, actually do it. I'm talking about Dustin Byfuglien, Troy Brouwer and Brent Seabrook, for example. Don't count Big Buff out. He can show a mean streak when he wants, and we're getting close to the time of year where it might come in handy.
How about Jordan Hendry's move to score his first of the season? This comes one game after Niklas Hjarmalsson's big game-winning blast on Wednesday. It was his first in 49 contests. Secondary scoring and role players coming up big is still the sign of a great team, no matter what kind of stars you have. Don't discount those roles. You don't think it can be demoralizing for a team if they can stop the top two lines, but a secondary player beats you? It can be, and the Hawks have enough talent to do just that.
Despite the first period domination by the Blackhawks on Friday, the season series between these teams didn't give much of a clue who would win in a playoff battle. On paper, the Hawks are a deeper team, but Vancouver has the better goaltending and there doesn't seem to be a matchup edge. That's not the case against the San Jose Sharks, for example, where the Hawks proved to be a quicker team in winning the season series.
The Canucks might simply be the toughest test for the Hawks come this spring, which will only add to the rivalry.
Q&A with Chicago Blackhawks GM Stan Bowman
On Monday, Stan Bowman met the media as a group for the first time since the season started. Topics ranged from Marian Hossa to the Hawks' power play. Here's a recap of what the Hawks' GM had to say:
On the team's performance so far: "We've had the benefit of playing at home for the most part, but I think we're off to a good start. We can improve on certain aspects of the game, and we are looking to do that. You want to get off to a start where you're not behind the eight ball. We've accomplished that, but it's going to get difficult. We've got some tough opponents coming up as well as a lot of road games."
One thing that has been frustrating: "We want our power play to pick it up. We've talked a lot about it, and we are working hard on it. We're going to sort it out. That's one thing we can certainly do better on. We've got a lot of talent here, and I think we'll get it straight for sure."
On Jonathan Toews' injury: "We're hopeful he's going to be back soon. It's a day-to-day thing. These things can turn around quickly so certainly if it lingers for a long time you'd be worried, but right now, internally we are not too concerned."
On the return of Marian Hossa: "We don't have a target date quite yet, but he is certainly on schedule from what we had said back in the summer. If anything we are hoping to move that up but these are things where they set those timetables for a reason. It just takes your body a certain amount of time to heal, and I think he's certainly right along the original track with that. Probably a week or so from now we might be able to get a more definite date but right now it's still a lot of guesswork. You have to listen to what the doctors say. They are the specialists."
What the crowded Hawks lineup could look like when all are healthy: "I think we are simply going to go with the guys that are earning it. That's what we've been consistent with. The players will sort that out themselves. It's always a good situation when you have too many guys that can play. I mean, that's kind of a coach's dream."
On word from the NHL about Andrew Ladd's hit on Matt D'Agostini: "I haven't heard anything, and I don't expect to."
On the idea that any shot to the head should be a penalty: "That's been talked about. I think in some other leagues like the Ontario League they have it that way. I think that's an option, and I'm sure it will get discussed, but you need to have a full discussion on it. I don't think you can talk about just one thing in a vacuum. I think we'll talk about that and see what comes out of our [general managers] meeting."
On Jordan Hendry playing fourth line instead of a call-up from Rockford: "He had not played since the start of the season. We wanted to get him in the lineup and that was the best way to do it."
On the genesis of the father's trip: "We actually started talking about it last season. It's hard to coordinate these things in the middle of the year. Logistically, it didn't work out. There are a lot of things that go into it. Our staff did a great job. We recognize that a couple of other teams have done this. We've probably gotten more feedback from our players on this than anything else. They really appreciate the chance to spend time with their dads on the road. It really started last year, and we spent a lot of time this summer getting it going."
Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Jordan Hendry to make debut Wednesday
The last time the Chicago Blackhawks took on a team they eliminated from last years playoffs, they needed the greatest comeback in franchise history to win the game.
They are certainly hoping tonight goes a bit different against the Vancouver Canucks. The Hawks eliminated Vancouver in six games last year with a memorable series finale that ended 7-5.
"It's a new season, it's a new year," winger Kris Versteeg said after the morning practice. "Everyone is fighting for a new goal, but I expect they will come at us like Calgary did."
Former Vancouver center Andrew Ebbett makes his Hawk debut playing left wing on the fourth line.
"I'm looking to make a good first impression," Ebbett said. "I've been looking forward to this since I first heard I was coming here, so I'm definitely excited."
Ebbett knows there will be an adjustment to wing.
"Honestly, it's staying out of the middle with those center instincts I've had," said Ebbett. "I just need to keep it simple, and any pucks that come along that defensive wall I have to get my body in front and get them out."
Quenneville announced after practice that Jordan Hendry will make his season debut tonight as well. Hendry has been a healthy scratch for all eight games so far but will take the place of Brent Sopel on the blue line tonight.
"We wanted to get Jordan in there earlier but we didn't want to change a winning lineup," Quenneville explained. "He looked good in camp. I like the way he skates so we're happy to get him in there."
Sopel missed practice on Tuesday for personal reasons, but Quenneville says he's fine and is just sitting to get Hendry a game.
Ebbett, Hendry and company will skate in front of Antti Niemi while the Hawks will face Roberto Louongo, who is having his own problems to start the year. He's 3-5 with an .879 save percentage and a goals against average of 3.25. Those below average numbers seem eerily familiar.

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful
Looks nice on the coffee table but content leaves a lot to be desired,
This review is from: Metropolitan World Atlas (Paperback)
The atlas is likely to appeal primarily as a coffee table book - and in that sense it probably works. It looks sufficiently pretty, and from an aesthetic point of view it is certainly deserving of more than just two stars. The basic idea - a metropolitan atlas certainly appeals as well, and the basic information that the author aims at presenting covers some of the more interesting aspects.
Where the atlas fails completely, in my opinion, is in the care and attention lavished on the actual data contained, as well as in the tools used for the graphical presentation of the data.
The author admits in the short introduction that only a select few sources were consulted and that little effort has been made to ensure the data on the different metropolitan areas (partially coming from different sources) is comparable. This will result in the book claiming that the city with the highest amount of crime is Stockholm (followed by other criminal hotspots such as Frankfurt, Berlin and Copenhagen (rememeber, this is supposed to be violent crime here)). You will have cases, where even percentages are not calculated correctly (very often apparent at a glance already), where the growth rates implied are completely unrealistic (a city growing from 400k to say 3m inhabitants over 5 years), etc. To make matters worse, no attempt has been made to present the complete picture for all metropolitan areas - if the handful of basic sources did not give the info, the author certainly did not seem to bother digging further. This results in some metropolitan areas being represented with little more than population numbers (the empty page does look funny in such cases).
Adding insult to injury, most of the data is presented in the form of pie and bubble charts. From a design focused book I would certainly hope for a better graphical way of representing data - as it is, the format makes glancing comparisons pretty difficult - at the end one needs to actually look at the number to really get a feel (negating much of the advantage of representing the data graphically in the first place).
Overall, the effort looks rushed, with little editing (the 2007 edition is no better), and not enough work put into actually making the book useable as a source of information. If you are a collector of atlases, or if you just want to leave a good looking book lying around, by all means go for it - if you care about the quality and presentation of the content, it is best to avoid this one.

Cal women hold off Colorado 53-49
Updated 10:55 pm, Sunday, January 6, 2013
Boulder, --
Colo. - Unable to hit free-throw tries consistently down the stretch, No. 7 Cal still found a recipe for success with some old-fashioned defense and rebounding.
Brittany Boyd scored 15 points, Reshanda Gray and Afure Jemerigbe rebounded missed foul shots in the late going, and Layshia Clarendon had a stop that prevented a last-second shot as the Bears held off No. 20 Colorado 53-49 on Sunday.
"That was very important," Boyd said of Cal's physical finish. "I think rebounding is the key to our team."
Jemerigbe and Gray added 10 points apiece for Cal (12-1, 2-0 Pac-12), which is off to its best start ever. The Bears won their sixth straight since a 77-63 setback at No. 3 Duke.
Chucky Jeffery scored 10 of her 13 points in the second half, but she also committed a key turnover - forced by Clarendon - that denied the Buffaloes (11-2, 0-2) a chance to get off a final shot.
"In a one-possession game, that was huge," Cal head coach Lindsay Gottlieb said. "It's two great players going at it, and we're lucky to have Layshia. She's ... an all-around complete kid on the offensive and defensive end."
It was the second consecutive loss in the conference for Colorado after an 11-0 start.
With Cal up 51-43 with less than three minutes left, Colorado ran off six straight points.
Clarendon missed two foul shots, but Talia Caldwell managed to tie up Jeffery on the rebound, and the possession arrow gave the ball back to Cal. Clarendon was again fouled with 10.3 seconds left, and she made one of two.
Colorado didn't get a chance to attempt a tying three-pointer when Jeffery committed the turnover with 5.2 seconds to go.
Cal again missed two free-throw tries - this time by Boyd - but Jemerigbe pulled down the offensive rebound, then made a foul shot to clinch the win.

My favorite part of this park was the duck and the swans!!! They are so friendly and come to you if you want to feed them. It amazed me that this birds were not afraid of people, so I figured Copenhagen citizens feed this animals all the time and I admire them for doing this. Visit this park for a...
Reallynhelpful staff made this a lovely lunch location. It is a good 40 minute walk from the central area though
Frederiksberg Park is a popular park where you can delight in a number of planned surprises, located along the winding paths - for example, the Chinese Pavilion in the middle of the garden, the waterfall on Spring Island and Apis Temple. rederiksberg Palace and Garden is located on the Valby Hill and right beside the Zoo.
Thirty minute walk plus from the city centre but worth it as the park is stunning and peaceful. We went here after attending the nearby Carlsberg factory
Only a short trip in the excellent public transport system this area has good shopping and lots of parkland with a multtitude of wildlife.
Really great park, a lot of green, water, birds. Some really nice spots for photography. Worth visiting even at winter.
We visited the castle in summer when gardens were in full bloom. The surrounding gardens make for a lovely family picnic. There is a good Indian restaurant also nearby. However, getting there is a bit tricky - navigating by train and then by bus from Copenhagen. It was very peaceful to si tin the gardens watching the swans and the...
We visited in winter so the park was not in full bloom, but was still nice to walk around. We rented bikes and cycled to the park but there are no bikes allowed inside.

Brand name of dehydrating organic herbicide?
We're going to till a new 50 x 50' garden now in lawn grass and keep rows tilled during the season to reduce weeds.
We'd like to spray it first with an organic herbicide to kill off as much grass as possible before tilling. I heard good reviews of one that kills by dehydrating grass/weeds when used. Anyone know the name? Any experiences to share?
How's this compare to something like diluted vinegar, or others?
Thanks so much.
Organic herbicides are either based on fermented plant acids or essential oils. None are particularly effective.
Studies show around a 40% overall effectiveness that increase to about 60-80% provided the weeds are young enough (cotyledon or first true leaf stage ) and the concentrations of the herbicide high enough. Plus one needs to factor in air temperature and amount of sunlight as well. Broadleaf weeds respond much better than do monocots or grass-type weeds.
IMO, you are not going to get a very satisfactory kill rate on turf grass with an "organic" herbicide. If you can find the horticultural vinegar (20% or higher acetic acid - not diluted) you may have some success but will need multiple applications. If you want immediate results, use a sod cutter to lift and remove the sod, which you can store upside down to compost or simply add to an active pile. If you are willing to wait a season, do the cardboard/newspaper topped with compost smothering route.
Most all "organic weed" killers use acid (Acetic Acid or Vinegar), fatty acids (soaps), or essential oils in an attempt to control that unwanted plant growth. None are as effective as simply denying those plants of access to sunlight by using mulches.
Vinegar, purchased in the grocers, will be about 3 to 5 percent Acetic Acid, already quite dilute and it will not be very effective. Sometimes Vinegar for "weed" control can be found in garden shops and at 10 to 25 percent Acetic Acid they can easily cause burns on you so due care in handling is necessary.
I would just till the area and put what is growing there right back into the soil and not concern myself with a "weed" killer.
We're going to till a new 50 x 50' garden now in lawn grass and keep rows tilled during the season to reduce weeds.
Closely mow the area, spread a layer of unwaxed cardboard, then top it with mulch and compost and clean dirt.
A thick layer of wood chips in the paths should suppress the grass, unless you have Bermuda
Agricultural vinegar has to be applied full strength, with appropriate protective gear, onto seedlings and young plants.
None of the recipes you see on Pinterest (vinegar and Dawn detergent and salt) work worth a darn, and I don't want to mess with agricultural strength acetic acid. Which is why I use generic glyphosate when I want to kill plants: it's cheap, biodegradeable and effective.
Here's the MSDS for 20% acetic acid - the "agricultural vinegar".
Here is a link that might be useful: Vinegar VS glyphosate
I'm not dogmatic about any gardening practice. My usual reaction is "do nothing except maintain optimal water and see what is really needed".
I practice "IPM" ... I use whatever will have the least impact and still get the job done in a reasonable length of time. If the garden sprouts a nest of fire ants, I'm opening the Amdro, not messing around with home remedies. The wasp nest in my tool shed, OTOH, will get the soapy water treatment tonight. She's right on the handle of my pole saw!
For weeds, it may mean a scuffle hoe or hand-pulling, it may mean one application of glyphosate (better than multiple doses of AvengerAG or SummerSet AllDown because it kills the roots of perennials like Bermudagrass).
We tried corn gluten meal as a pre-emergent. The quail loved it. So did the doves.
The two main purchased additives I use are soil sulfur and Ironite ... because this is alkaline desert dirt. The compost and mulch is all home-grown.
If not too late in your area, till it, then 2 weeks later till again. the 2nd gets the stuff that regrew. If you put weed cloth in the rows and a layer mulch or even a then layer of dirt on top of it you won't have to till, I put weed cloth where I put out vines. As long as you buy the heavy duty you can take it up in the fall or next spring and rearrange each year.
but to your specific question. I don't know anything about it

Guernsey FC 'pride' after FA Vase exit
Guernsey FC chairman Steve Dewsnip has expressed "immense pride" with his side after their FA Vase semi-final exit.
The Green Lions went out 4-1 on aggregate following Saturday's 1-0 second-leg defeat at Spennymoor.
"We are desperately disappointed to have first of all lost the football game and of course to be knocked out of the FA Vase," he told BBC Guernsey.
Guernsey FC's FA Vase run
- 1st qualifying round: 3-2 Crowborough Athletic
- 2nd qualifying round: 2-0 Farnham Town
- 1st round: 3-2 Whyteleafe
- 2nd round: 4-3 Erith Town
- 3rd round: 4-0 Erith and Belvedere
- 4th round: 6-5 Rye United
- 5th round: 3-1 Spalding United
- Quarter-final: 0-0 Walsall Wood, 3-1 replay
- Semi-final: Lost 4-1 on aggregate to Spennymoor Town
"But the overwhelming feeling is one of immense pride in our football club," Dewsnip added.
"It is immense pride in the players, the staff, the coaches and the fantastic pride in the wonderful support both on the island and the support that came up to see us in Spennymoor.
"One of the most wonderful things is the support on the road during the FA Vase campaign."
The island side were only founded in 2011 and won promotion to the Combined Counties Football League Premier Division last season.
And after a 6-1 win over Windsor on Monday, sixth-placed Guernsey are set to play another 19 league games before 5 May.
"This football club has come so far in such a short period of time. We still haven't completed our second season and to be within striking distance of a Wembley cup final has been quite amazing," said Dewsnip.
"We've got a very tough schedule now during the rest of the season. April is going to be very difficult as we know but we are ready for it, we are prepared.
"We are going to have to provide a lot of commitment at all levels of the football club."

Woman in Assam Stones Eve Teaser
I've written before about women in India who resist eve teasing, but I felt a video from this week's television news warranted delving into the topic again. After being fondled and verbally disrespected by army jawan Gurvinder Singh in her own garment shop, a young woman took matters into her own hands by following the man around the open market while yelling at and stoning him.
"We respect the army, but he came and touched me after asking me to show some innerwear. I just lost my temper and hit him. I was scared. I filed an FIR because I don't want any other woman to be subjected to this kind of harassment," Rali Faihriem told Arunachal News.
Rali's protest is all the more impressive when taking into consideration the enormous army presence in Assam's Halflong hillstation. By attacking one of the military men, Rali put herself at risk, but cultural convention came to her aid as onlookers shamed Gurvinder for his indiscretion and his commanding officer publicly admonished him in order to appease the displeased crowd.
Watch this clip of tiny Rali standing up to the massive (and armed) Gurvinder, a modern day David and Goliath story.
