All Blacks captain Richie McCaw has confirmed that France were guilty of eye-gouging during the World Cup final on 23 October.
Following the All Blacks' win in the decider, very little was made of the alleged incident by McCaw himself. But six weeks on, McCaw spoke out at a charity breakfast in Christchurch, confirming that there was plenty of foul play.
'The French are worse when they are scared,' he said. 'They were as bad as they have been and were going for the eyes.
'My eye was a bit sore for a while and I was struggling to see for a bit. I was surprised they didn't cite him [France centre Aurelien Rougerie].'
It was consistent with what was written by the New Zealand media on the eve of the final, and some of the French coaches went on record saying that they would resort to illegal tactics in order to unsettle the All Blacks.
It was said that the French players would target McCaw's injured foot, but in the end they went for his eyes.
Video evidence confirmed that Rougerie was indeed guilty of eye-gouging, but only came to light after the 36-hour timeframe for citing had expired. The IRB has since said that it will look into extending the citing window.

Turner Syndrome
Turner syndrome facts
*Turner syndrome facts by John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
What is Turner syndrome?
Turner syndrome is a chromosomal condition that alters development in females. Women with this condition tend to be shorter than average and are usually unable to conceive a child (infertile) because of an absence of ovarian function. Other features of this condition that can vary among women who have Turner syndrome include: extra skin on the neck (webbed neck), puffiness or swelling (lymphedema) of the hands and feet, skeletal abnormalities, heart defects and kidney problems.
This condition occurs in about 1 in 2,500 female births worldwide, but is much more common among pregnancies that do not survive to term (miscarriages and stillbirths).
Turner syndrome is a chromosomal condition related to the X chromosome.
Researchers have not yet determined which genes on the X chromosome are responsible for most signs and symptoms of Turner syndrome. They have, however, identified one gene called SHOX that is important for bone development and growth. Missing one copy of this gene likely causes short stature and skeletal abnormalities in women with Turner syndrome.

The rigorous process starts with molten iron being sand cast from a single mold that's destroyed after use, explaining why no two pieces are identical. Pots, pans and accessories are then painstakingly polished and finished by hand, sprayed with two coats of enamel and fired twice. No other procedure yields cookware that so evenly conducts and retains heat, making Le Creuset cast iron second to none for slow cooking.
Le Creuset's signature color, Flame, was created to reflect the intense orange hue of molten cast iron inside a cauldron ("creuset" in French). In the company's early years, this vibrant shade offered a refreshing color choice within a sea of gray. Carrying on the tradition, Le Creuset features a wide range of vibrant colors to complement any kitchen décor.
In 1995 Le Creuset began expanding into new categories: stainless steel, stoneware, silicone, enamel on steel, textiles and forged hard-anodized aluminum. Although some production processes have been modernized, you can be sure the handmade qualities of Le Creuset cookware remain unchanged. The company still manufactures their cast iron cookware in the original foundry, with each piece passing through the hands of 15 skilled artisans to ensure flawless perfection.
With the consistent qualities of authenticity, originality and innovation, Le Creuset maintains a connection to both heritage and modernity.

You've brought a new dog into your home—congratulations! Now comes your first dog-training challenge: house training.
House training is not an exact science—there's no sure-fire formula or timetable that will work for every dog. The important thing is to make it a positive, not a stressful, experience. Being attentive, patient and consistent are the keys to success, along with the following dos and don'ts:
Do: Closely supervise your dog. Limit the dog's run of the house to the one or two rooms where you are able to see her at all times. Dogs usually show "pre-pottying" behavior such as sniffing, circling and walking with stiff back legs; all signs that you should get her to the potty area ASAP! As the training begins to take hold, you can slowly enlarge her territory as she learns where the potty area is—and that the house is not a toilet!
Don't: Yell at or spank a dog for a mess she made earlier. If you catch her in the act, it's okay to startle her by clapping or making a noise (hopefully this will stop her long enough for you to whisk her outside). But a dog will not learn anything by being scolded for a past accident, even one a few minutes old. Just clean it up and soldier on.
Do: Offer big, enthusiastic praise when she gets it right. Whether your goal is for your dog to eliminate on pee pads indoors or to do it outside, you have to really throw a party for her when she succeeds. Lavish her with praise, affection and some yummy treats!
Don't: Rub her face in it. Ever!!! In addition to this action making your dog fear you, she's incapable of making the connection that it's the act of soiling indoors you object to—to her, you just really hate pee and poop. If she thinks that the waste itself is what you dislike, she'll only get sneakier about hiding it from you.
For more detailed advice on house training specific to your pet, please visit our Virtual Pet Behaviorist articles on Weekend Crate Training, House Training Your Puppy, House Training Your Adult Dog or House Training Your Puppy Mill Dog.
I adopted a puppy from a shelter & used the bell by the door for training her. I was able to pickup a string of bells at Walmart in the pet section. This system worked great! A few months later I found a skinny kitten outside of my local grocery store. I just couldn't walk away from the poor little thing so I brought him home. To my surprise the dog taught the kitten to ring the bell when he wanted to go out.
I've had many dogs in my lifetime and using the bell by the door is by far the easiest way I have found to potty train your pet.
I like this advise it sounds reasonable. Keeping it positive will get best resuls.
I love this! My sister gives the command, "Hurry up!" to her dog to get her to urinate without wandering about aimlessly. I had no idea that was the pee command the first time I dog sat for my sister and brother-in-law, but I learned it pretty quickly. :-)
Understand that there are two concepts your new friend has to understand. 1) Its NOT good to go inside. 2) It IS good to go outside. An obvious distinction to us, but no so much to them when "going" just seems like, well, going.
I do the bells at the outdoor access doors. Maxx is 4yrs. and he'll still ring the bells(ONLY ON 1 DOOR NOW)
He'll ring in the middle of the night, if it's urgent.
a good way to train.
My parents hung bells on their back door to potty train their labrador pup (not a pup anymore). It worked very well. But I was at their house recently and it occurred to me that THEY are the ones who got trained. No matter what my parents are doing, if they hear those bells jingle at all, they jump up and race to the back door to let the dog out, even in the middle of the night! He probably thinks they are very well trained. lol. (on the other hand, the number of accidents that dog has had indoors can probably be counted on one hand...and he's 7 years old now. So it obviously works!)
I have a Chihuahua mix named ducky. she is wonderful and I take her out as often as I can. My friend will come and take her to her house for play dates with her dogs, unfortunately ducky sometimes has accidents there and the other day she pooped on my friends carpet and she rubbed Ducky's nose in it. thank you for listing that don't.
Excellent advice. I've taken in many dogs from our local shelter and positive reinforcement is the key to success. It generally takes me just a few weeks to help them understand, in fact I think they prefer going outside. The first few weeks I watch them constantly and if I must run an errand I put the dog in a kennel cage with plenty of water. I never stay gone more than two hours and if they had to go in the kennel cage I never punish or scold! Generally (I'm retired) I take them outside about every hour to ninety minutes and when they go I lavish them with praise. Dogs love us so much that praise means so much to them and punishment is often not understood. Just watch your dog and in a few short weeks you will both be happy.
I think you're not EVER supposed to put food OR water in the crate with the dog. It's not fair to offer food/water and no way to get outside to do their business.
Thank you for rescuing from your local shelter!!! God bless you!
I disagree. Feeding and watering the dog in the crate is fine and helps the crate become a place of comfort.
However, during housebreaking, you won't want to free-feed or free-water in the crate--or anywhere else--because, if you know when it goes in, you can predict when it needs to come out. The pup should be offered food several times a day and water a few more, and walks should take place about 20 minutes or so after food/water has been ingested. Then the pup should not be made to wait longer than 1 hour per age in months +1 (so 4 hours MAX for 3-month-old puppy) before going out again. Doing all this on a strict schedule, with gradually increasing lengths of time between walks (~15 minutes increase, every three days, no more than an hour a month) and gradually decreasing offerings of food (in terms of number of times, not total amounts), will help the pup understand that it's never too long to the next walk to hold it.
If you need to be away too long to feel good about leaving the pup with no water, try freezing some water into a bowl that will melt slowly so that the pup can lick it to quench any thirst, but not quickly fill it's bladder.

The pavement may never know what hit it. The new Parada Spec-X has the irresistible inch-up good looks to complement today's road-ruling SUVs and light trucks, with an appetite for ultra-high performance in the streets and beyond. If you're riding on a set, you're ready to take on anything. If you aren't, you may as well just pull over right now.
Aggressive directional design increases acceleration & braking capabilities.M + S rating offers outstanding versatility in any season.Inch-up fitment combines good looks & ultra-high performance.Circumferential centre groove delivers outstanding water evacuation.Reinforced shoulder blocks provide stability & promote even wear.Variable pitch technology cuts tire noise & minimizes uneven wear.
After wearing through a set I switched to a speed rated Hankook tire. The yokahama was definitely the better tire in all weather conditions including travels in the Sierras where chains were mandatory, but never needed them. Will be returning to the Yokahama tire for my other light duty truck and suv.

I'm sure these tires are outstanding with lighter vehicles but having these "all season" tires on an SUV that almost weighs six thousand pounds is not safe in my opinion. The tires just can't create enough grip to slow down such a heavy car and as such I would NOT recommend these tires for any Range Rover sport SC. Great for summer but utter rubbish the instant you get a dump of snow.

Re:By "your data" (Score:5, Interesting)
I figured it was as simple as my data is whatever that is not somebody else's data, and how much it takes up means it's space used not unique data. My breakdown:
Total: ~12 TB
Single copies of various entertainment: ~6.5TB
Hard to find things: 2x ~2TB
Personal things: 2x ~500GB + partially offsite
The 6.5 TB I basically consider a cache to the Internet, and I'm probably wouldn't replace it if the disk crashed but if I've already downloaded it... why not put it on a 3 TB drive in case I want to watch it again. I guess I'll probably have to do some house cleaning soon since I only have 500GB free, or maybe I'll just add another disk as it's usually less hassle. The good thing about being a digital hoarder is that it can still usually fit in a maxi-tower...
Rainbow tables and online backups take up an awful lot of space.
Between my three servers, I easily go past 20 TB, and that's not counting backup tapes, DVDs and other offline storage, nor PCs and laptops.
Counting disk space in use, we get slightly past the 10TB level (over 5TB on the media server/file server, less than 0.5TB on the web server, and 0.5-2TB on each of our 4 PC/laptops at home). However, the disk space in use is more than double that if our backup disks are taken into account.
I like the working definition of "your data" being that which is somehow uniquely yours...like photos, videos, documents, audio, code, art, logs, etc.
Everything else is just a local cache of something which is not "your" data.
If the original media is part of my personal property then it's still "my" data.
I bought it. I own it. It's mine. Personal property rights for the unwashed masses still means something at least for the time being.
I think the point was that what we usually consider "our" data is what's worth backing up. I own my Steam titles and the songs I've purchased from various online services, but I have no reason to bother backing them up since I can easily re-download any of them direct from the source on demand. I own my OSes, but I never back up my system drive because it's almost as easy to just reinstall these days with image-based installers loaded to USB drives.
Sure, if by slight chance one of these services happens t
You don't own that media, you have no property rights with regards to the media, you have purchased the right to use it and been given a physical copy of the media to facilitate that.
And moreover, are we limiting this to computer files? What about my music CDs (both pressed and burned)? Do those count? I have a huge collection of live concert recordings in high-quality (never been subject to lossy-compression)--most originally from DAT. Also, DVDs.
What about books? Sure, text is compact, but I have a lot. And what about comic books? If I digitized those, they'd probably take up a fair amount of storage. Especially if I wanted to retain anything near the quality they have now.
and some of it is in the (a) cloud. The location of the data isn't the question. Oh, right another dumb ass spouting of an insult that underscores their ignorance.
Well done.
The location of the data isn't the question. Oh, right another dumb ass spouting of an insult that underscores their ignorance.

Now me, I kept all my backups on megaupload.com. Sure, I can't get to them at present... But hey, what more could I ask than having my backups under the direct care of the FBI?
The only cloud I trust is the one providing the rain that's feeding my torrent client...
Of course it's not the same thing, but it's not about local, it's about the total amount of data.

I've got intentional redundant copies, too. I don't think they count, even though the digital space they consume does count in terms of data, money and mass. But I've almost certainly got redundant copies of photos and video that I've saved in multiple locations, but not necessarily intentionally. Does that count? Does it only count if I know for sure that they're redundant, or whether or not I do? Is it a Schrodinger's Cat like situation?
Fractal hard drives, the more accurately you measure your drive the more space it has!
Microsoft and I are still at odds over what's really mine.
I used to have about 1 TB spread across 3 hard drives. But then streaming video became easier and I no longer had to download all of my porn. Now I have about 50 GB.
Streaming video services still provide inferior quality, inferior features, inferior user interfaces, and are subject to network outtages.
Local copies and physical media are going away no time soon for those of us that are more demanding or more discriminating.

..I had so few files.
I checked with ALSI and I was *surprised* that I had 27 full GiB of personal files.
Then I read the all these TB-scale comments...
If you include the operating systems, I have about 50 GiB.
Do I count just the RCMP, or do I include CSIS, FBI, the NSA, and DoubleClick? I dislike badly worded polls almost as much as bad number ranges.
Go on, impress us: Provide a breakdown by each. Could you include GCHQ, Mossad and the FSB too.
If you're feeling really brave, throw in Amazon and Google.
Total ~150G... guess that's low end of the scale these days.
But the funny thing is: what I consider most important, are also the smallest files. What takes up the most space (movies, in my case) is also the stuff that I wouldn't care much about if it were lost, and/or is easy to re-create from original media.
Bottom line: what really matters, is a small subset that easily fits on an USB stick. And has done so for a number of years now (and my backup strategy reflects that). So who cares about all th
yeah, I have smaller versions of my collection for smaller drives, with the most important stuff being on the smaller drives for the most part. It's amazing how little space the personal documents use up compared to the music collection.
7.46GB USB drive (5.22GB used), 74.5GB main hard drive (67.1GB used), 849GB secondary hard drive (302GB used, including a backup of the main hard drive)
I took it to mean the contents of my home dir. I think pretty much everything I would call "my data" is in there somewhere. Takes up 150GB.
On my two home computers. Most are used up by videos.
Ripping my DVD collection to hard drive as I type this. After that I start scanning my technical books and saving them in pdf format.
My data is very little. Most of what people call "my data" isn't all that unique. Pictures and documents mostly. I actually have very little data, because I trim it and don't keep the 1000s of pictures I snap because only a few are worth keeping*. Most of my unique data is text based, or stuck in a database somewhere, and doesn't even approach 1 GB.
People are packrats, and keep everything and think everything they have is "unique", when it is not unique at all.
*Pictures worth keeping = pictures I use or view on any regular basis. Pictures of scenery and stuff aren't all that unique. Pictures with people and situations are unique, but planned pictures are boring.
Data at home? Not counting music, about a gig and a half. If you add the music I'm over 100 GB. I'm not sure if music counts as 'data'.
Data at work? Over 1000 TB, and in the cloud.
Then it's around 4,5TB (including TV-series, movies, porn, games etc)
If it's the important stuff: 780MB (backup of mails since 2001 + textfiles + 3 spreadsheets)
Less than 500Gb. Should I start generating random binary data to catch up?
I have well over that.
I believe it's somewhere around 20gb.
The poll becomes quickly unbalanced when you realize "your data" REALLY needs to encompass not just data on your computer, but also ever CD, DVD and BluRay you own. Those things are yours, they hold data that you purchased to own and that by law you can re-sell. So it counts.
~2TB total
120GB of that is in my backup set (the DVR files aren't worth backing up)
~90TB raw storage in my primary array
~70TB used at primary site
~19.5TB in the backup set
I have two 80 GB physical hard drives: C and D. All my software is loaded onto C. All my data get written to D.
During my weekly backups, I backup C to D and D to C. If one fails, I can restore onto a new hard drive. Actually, I divide the backups as follows:
On D:
C Windows
C State and Desktop
C non-Windows software
On C:
D non-photo data
D photos
In a cycle of backups, I do one complete and the rest incremental. I retain two complete cycles of complete and incremental of each. Encrypted copies of all backups
Although, I could be a smartarse: my genetic code would only take up about 100GB, add on another 10% maybe for epigenetic markers.
Most of the 300GB is music, photos and TV/Movies. Probably games as well, and a very small proportion of it being text based assignments. Extrapolating from the size of a HTML version of War and Peace, I've probably got another GB or two on my bookshelf, which is actually the data I enjoy the most.
I'd also be curious as to how much "data" the memories and behaviour patterns that
A good exercise is to move all your data into a big enough external hard drive (make another mirror if cautious). Then over the next months, you pull data back from there whenever you need it. The idea is to see how much of your stuff you really miss, and what is junk that you actually never need.
other stuff like source code doesn't even rate a mention.
I'm not counting media libraries, which is other-person generated content I can re-retrieve from elsewhere.
I have 2.4 TB worth of data. I've recently been moving all of my data from a WHS to a 2012 Essentials server. I liked the idea of having a domain in my home, and switching from mirroring to "parity" (RAID-5) seemed like a good move for my long term data plans. I've got hundreds of DVD movies. I've started backing up Blu-Rays, and those are taking 8-15GB each compressed. My biggest problem now has actually been moving the data from one box to the other. I don't have enough cash to buy all new hard disk
My data is spread out over backup drives sitting the garage, current external backup, network backup to a NAS, laptops, desktops, etc. You name a backup or storage method, and I'm sure I have some once-important but now forgotten data on it somewhere in storage. I think I have a Zip disc or two. Still have a stack of 3.5 floppy with an old project on there.
I can see my self on "Hoarders."
"Next up on Hoarders, he can't seem to throw away any sort of data."

At roughly 35 miles high per TB... assuming no compression... My data reaches nicely past the Mesophere.. into Outer SPAAACCEEE ! Of course if those Gazillion punched cards got sucked into the jet stream, the resultant shade would blot out the sun and cause global cooling on a massive scale. Hmm...
I kept all my backups in an SVN repo on docsrvb.mysql.com... Good times.
have no idea how much space I'm wasting on crap I'll never look at again.
Well if it's data about me (i.e. movies I've made of events, photos, copies of movies that I have around etc etc), then it's a few TB. But if it's data that I actively use, then the whole of LHC recorded data would add to it taking it to a bunch of PB instead, but that's not just mine (though I could take the analysis skims that I've created, those could be maybe listed as mine, that's a few hundred TB).

Over the past 15 years I've taken 627,212,222,126 bytes of photos, and short movies with my various cameras. I've given up on using RAW files, and now stick with basic JPEG compression, so the rate of accumulation is fairly stable. I'm now able to fit it all in a laptop drive, and the mirror of it fits nicely in a single USB external drive.

I've got over 2TB of backed up DVD files that I'm storing. I want to continue through my collection, but I've found that I'll need quite a bit more space. I don't really have the cash to shell out for storage, and the more time I invest in ripping, the more I feel that I should have better backups of the ripped content. I am using RAID 5, but once I switch from 1TB to bigger drives, they are much less reliable. Has anyone had good success with some kind of online video streaming? I don't want to repay

By Suzanne Kubota
Senior Internet Editor
The General Services Administration has a brand-new position -- Chief Greening Officer.
The first person to hold that post, Eleni Reed, told Federal News Radio she'll be part of the Public Building Service, but "the ultimate goal is enhance the environmental performance of the GSA portfolio."
That would be the entire portfolio. Nearly 10,000 buildings worth of GSA's government-owned and leased buildings.
The position "expands GSA's capacity to respond to the President's challenge," according to a GSA press release, issued as an Executive Order.
Reed said that order "sets out specific goals for federal agencies to really drive environmental performance and looks at issues such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions, increasing energy efficiency, reducing water consumption and looking at preventing and reducing waste to name only a few. So there's a lot of momentum across government and this executive order is certainly a driver."
"Driving environmental performance" means both using less and creating less, said Reed.
When we talk about high-performance buildings and looking at enhancing environmental performance, we're really talking about embedding sustainability practices across our business lines and also with a focus on driving implementation. So it's clearly about energy efficiency as we strive to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and bring down operational costs but it's also looking at how we can become better performers environmentally and look at reducing our consumption of water and preventing and reducing waste.
Being the first Chief Greening Officer is exciting, said Reed, but not because of the rare air.
I'm a big believer in buildings being part of the solution to environmental challenges, so there are many ways in which we can take small steps to reduce environmental impact and reduce operational costs at the same time.
Reed added the best part about being part of the Public Building Service is having an impact on "each stage of the real estate lifecycles. So when we think about acquisition, leasing, construction, operations and maintenance, it really touches on all the aspects of real estate and there's really an ability to drive, and to continue to drive change because of the scale at which we're operating here. We're talking about a very large portfolio: 361 million square feet. So there's a lot of opportunity and scalability."

Amphetamines are very addictive stimulants that accelerate functions in the brain and body. They come in pills or tablets. Prescription diet pills also fall into this category of drugs.
No matter how a person takes amphetamines, these drugs hit with a fast high, making the user feel powerful, alert, and energized.
These "uppers" pump up heart rate, breathing, and blood pressure, and can also cause sweating, shaking, headaches, sleeplessness, and blurred vision.
Prolonged use may cause hallucinations and intense paranoia.
Users who stop taking amphetamines experience withdrawal symptoms, such as aggression, anxiety, and strong cravings for the drugs.

GREENVILLE - A runaway teen was arrested early Thursday morning while authorities were investigating a local gas station armed robbery.
At approximately 6:29 a.m., the Greenville Police Department responded to the Circle Mart, located at 100 E . Main St. in Greenville, on the report of the armed robbery.
During the initial investigation it was reported that a male suspect wearing a ski mask robbed the store while brandishing a sword. Cash and cigarettes were reportedly taken before the suspect fled on foot.
Officers located one possible suspect at 307 1/2 N. Main in Greenville. After he was taken to the Greenville Police Department for questioning, a second suspect fled from the residence.
After a foot pursuit, 17-year-old Trey Morton was located just after 8 a.m. hiding in a carport in an alley on the 200 block of North Broadway. He was arrested with assistance from the Darke County Sheriff's Office.
Morton was found to be a missing/runaway juvenile from Greenville. He was held for questioning and later released to Darke County Juvenile Court personnel to be transported to the West Central Juvenile Detention Facility in Troy.
At approximately 2:34 p.m., Greenville detectives executed a search warrant at the North Main residence where several items were seized. Charges are pending at this time for the person(s) involved in this robbery.
If you have any information about the robbery you are urged to contact the Greenville Police Department Detectives Section at (937) 548-4150 or may also submit information to the Darke County Crime Stoppers 24 hour private Tipline at (937) 547-1661 or online at darkecountycrimestoppers.com/tips from any computer or mobile device.

Just not a solid well made product. Light weight materials make for a short life span for all the dragging around to all the platings my wife does every year..

GasBuddy Blog
PA Governor Tom Corbett introduced a plan last week that proposes raising gas tax revenues over the next five years to generate more than $5 billion that he says would be well-spent on roads, bridges and mass-transit systems.The only problem with the plan is that it's short on details. "How do we (Pennsylvania's taxpayers) finance the plan?" The governor's report answered that question with four sentences (three bullet points!). "How will the dollars be spent?" The answer to that question got five bullet points. I think what he's trying to say is "This is a stick-up, but don't worry, you'll be glad when you see how we spend your money." Pennsylvania residents could be seeing their...

SPOKANE VALLEY Animal lovers who walked into Evergreen Pet Store this weekend said it smelled like animal abuse.
Dead animals, feces, urine. Just stuff that you shouldn t be breathing in, Jeremy Bolen said.
He and several other concerned citizens saw the condition of animals inside the shop and jumped into action on Saturday to give the pets food, water and new homes.
People were pigs, property owner Joe Mayo said. When he discovered the store in such disarray and smelled the foul odor inside, he told the owners to sign their paperwork and get out.
Mayo said they hadn t paid rent since July after the Department of Revenue revoked their license.
He said a cat and dog found in a locked room had likely been there for several days without care. The Spokane Valley Animal Hospital took them in and is now looking for donations to help pay for surgery.
Customers filled the store on Saturday, rescuing pets and purchasing pet accessories for more than half off the marked prices.
Volunteers who showed up to help took home cockatiels, hamsters and parrots at no cost.
Mayo said the building at 14319 E. Sprague Ave. in Spokane Valley is now for sale, but it will take him at least two weeks to get it cleaned up and ready for a new tenant.
One of the owners of the Evergreen Pet Store responded to KREM2 s story with the following statement:
I am the owner of evergreen pet. This is in response to what has been said in concerns of the pet store and the actual events. We regret that persons feel that we have not taken care of the business we worked so hard at. Last year the store had a fire in the fish area, the contractor sublet work out that caused that area to be closed for about six months. Along with the road construction this last summer, ( 3 months) this put us in a situation that was not probable.
In early August the store was forced to close. However during the time it was closed we have had personnel in on a daily basis to maintain the daily duties of the store, with the intent of reopening. We then realized that reopening would not be possible. Over this time period we were working with the property owner to help find a way to sell the assets to offset mounting costs. The landlord had advised us that he was trying to work with other local pet stores to help find homes for all the animals. At the end of last week the landlord changed the locks and we were no longer able to reenter the premise to take care of the animals. Up until this time the animals were maintained on a daily basis. We regret the situation that has happened, and are happy that animal are being placed into homes.

"Sleepy Hollow" crews were busy in Craven County last week filming (taping? Recording? What do they call it these days?) an episode featuring several locales, including Tryon Palace.
It got me to thinking: What took Hollywood (or in this case, Wilmington) so long to discover North Carolina's only palace? As movie locations go, Tryon Palace is a natural.
Growing up as I did in suburban Los Angeles, location filming was not unknown to me. An episode of "Wonder Woman" was filmed at a house just up the street (talk about an answer to a teenager's prayers!). My high school is also known as Ridgemont High, where the times are fast. My university's library was cylon headquarters in an episode of "Battlestar Galactica."
Being desensitized as I was, location filming doesn't excite me all that much these days. In fact it can be quite a pain, what with blocked streets and all. But the benefits can far outweigh any temporary inconveniences.
New Bern has not gone without mention in TV land. It got a nod in an episode of "Bones" and was relocated to a post-nuclear-war Kansas where it was run by bad guys who make our present city management look angelic. (FYI, there really is a Newbern Township in Kansas, population 349, according to Wikipedia.)
But sometime soon people will get a real, honest-to-gosh look at the sites and sounds of Craven County, including the Palace, Cedar Grove Cemetery and a motel in Havelock.
I'm not saying that this is the branding that the city of New Bern is looking for from its well-paid branding consultants. Surely, though, we'll be able to get better mileage out of it than a tagline, "As featured in one episode of 'Sleepy Hollow.'"
Imagine some young newlywed couple in the Midwest who change their minds where to get married because they find they can have their wedding at a real palace, the one they saw on TV.
Because everyone knows, if you film it, they will come.
If the Palace takes off as a frequent movie location, it will generate its own tourism weather. Tour buses will flock in to bring folks to precisely where Brad Pitt proposed to Kate Winslet in that 2017 hit movie, "The Baron of Craven County." (I'm making this movie title up; don't go looking to IMDb.com for it.)
Another town where I lived in California, a college town called Chico, was a filming location for just one movie that I can recall, the 1938 hit, "The Adventures of Robin Hood."
To this day folks excitedly point out the approximate spots where Errol Flynn stood for specific scenes, and how he was nabbed for fishing without a license. That stuff sticks in a town's memory.
I look forward to watching the episode of "Sleepy Hollow" that was recorded in New Bern, but I'm hoping that it's just a start. With something as magnificent as Tryon Palace, I'm hoping for something on the big screen, preferably without car chases, gunfire or spacecraft.
Thanks for letting me take up some of your Sunday morning.

Superstorm sends local medical pros on mission of mercy

Nurse Vicki Schiessl returned to her shift in the emergency department at Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington Thursday morning. Schiessl was deployed with Washington's Disaster Medical Assistance Team to give medical aid on the East Coast after Superstorm Sandy struck.
The 55-year-old nurse from Stanwood packed her steel-toed boots and headed to the front.
This time, it was with the Washington-1 Disaster Medical Assistance Team to tend to the wounds of superstorm Sandy. Schiessl, a Cascade Valley Hospital nurse, joined the Seattle-based rapid-response team four years ago and had trained for the day she would be activated.
When the alert came, her bags were ready: A hiking pack with personal items. A backpack with clothes, boots and mess kit. A fanny pack with gloves, stethoscope, trauma scissors and earplugs.
"We left on Halloween," she said. She'd planned to go trick-or-treating with her two grandkids.
"Our mission was to decompress an ER department," she said. "The ER was getting overrun with more than they could handle. We were sent to ease that burden."
On the medical team with Schiessl were about 40 others, including three Snohomish County residents: Mike Waite, a Redmond Fire Department paramedic; and Snohomish County Fire District 1 firefighters Kurt Hilt, a paramedic, and EMT Mike Smith.
The storm had closed the New York airports, so the team flew into Philadelphia and drove to Long Island. It was about midnight when they arrived in Oceanside and set up a five-tent compound in the parking lot of South Nassau Communities Hospital.
"We started seeing patients at 2 o'clock in the morning," Schiessl said.
After a few hours' sleep on a cot in a tent with 25 others, it was time to start a 12-hour shift.
"It was like 'game on' after that," she said. "All we did was work. We worked 12-hour shifts, then crawled into bed."
That was the drill for 10 days straight. During that time, the team saw about 1,100 patients.
"Primarily what we saw were the walking wounded," Schiessl said. "People you see in urgent care or emergency rooms, with lacerations, broken bones, burns. Folks who lost everything and needed refills on medications."
The team treated utility workers and firefighters injured on the job, as well as the out-of-state insurance adjustor who stepped on piece of wood with a nail.
"All were eager to get back to work," she said.
That same spirit prevailed in the staff working inside the hospital. About 120 were significantly affected by the hurricane, she said. "Yet they were taking care of people. That takes a lot of stamina to lose your home and power and come to work."
If all that wasn't bad enough, the nor'easter came through dropping wet heavy snow, which created more havoc and injuries.
Election Day was just another day of puncture wounds and tetanus shots. There was no TV blaring results. Occasionally, someone would ask, "Did you hear who is winning? Who's our president now?"
The days were long, but the time went by fast.
The medical team returned to Washington on Nov. 11. That was a Sunday, and by early Wednesday morning Schiessl was back in gear at the Arlington hospital where she has worked for 21 years.
"She could have taken off longer," Cascade Valley spokeswoman Catherine Russell said.
"It was time to get back," Schiessl said. The first day she did her beat as an employee health nurse at the hospital. The next day, she worked 12 hours in the Cascade Valley ER.
Schiessl said she'll never forget the misery she witnessed on Long Island in Sandy's aftermath.
"The bewildered, hopeless, haunted looks on people's faces," she said.
"There was a man who came in with his son. I asked if he had power at home. He said, 'I have no home.'"
The experience made her more grateful for her husband, Fred, her grandkids and even her chickens.
"I could get back to a nice warm bed and home and family," she said. "These folks are still having a hard time. I don't want them forgotten."

Green Architecture
Green Architecture
Green architecture is more than mixing yellow and blue paint to freshen up the exterior of your house.
Green architecture is the integration of technology, thoughtful construction techniques and, well, common sense when designing a 'green building' that lessens the environmental impact of the structure and those living or working inside.
Read more about 'green architecture'
Green architecture and construction typically have slightly higher upfront costs than traditional construction, but the long-term savings in energy costs, water use and even health care add to the bottom line for the life of the building. According to a 2008 report by the U.S. General Services Administration, commercial buildings built with green architecture and green construction techniques use 26 percent less energy and have 13 percent lower maintenance costs.
The bottom line: Green architecture, over the long haul, saves you green. As in cash money.
The basics of green architecture include the following, which can be LEED certified by the U.S. Green Building Council:
Something as simple as how a building is positioned on a property can make a significant difference in energy efficiency. In colder climates, for example, large windows may be placed on the south side to allow for solar heating during the day. In a place where hot summers are a part of life, a house might be positioned to take advantage of the shade provided by large deciduous trees. When the leaves drop in the fall, winter sun hits the house, warming it.
Renewable energy
A building sucks up less energy if it makes its own. Green architecture designs often include the use of photovoltaic solar panels to supply most, if not all, of the electricity needs of the occupants of a home or office building. Solar water heaters — also called solar domestic hot water systems — aren't quite as space age as PV panels, but have a dramatically quicker pay back period. Heating hot water is generally the biggest use of energy (electric or natural gas) in a household.
Wind turbines for residential use are available, but they're practical only under limited circumstances. A system can cost $15,000 to $55,000, but incentives and rebates available in many states (as you find with solar systems) cut the cost.
Energy efficiency
One of the primary goals of green architecture is to sharply reduce the amount of energy needed to keep people comfortable. The building's design includes greater insulation and energy efficient windows. The design also will make best use of those double-pane windows to reduce the need for interior lighting.
Water efficiency
Green architecture relies on water conserving fixtures such as ultra-low flush toilets and low-flow showerheads. Some green designs include grey water systems that use wastewater from laundry, dishwashing and bathing. The water is recycled on-site to use again for landscape irrigation or, in a few circumstances, flushing toilets.

The group of basketball players was welcomed by several North Korean senior sports officials at the airport in Pyongyang, China's Xinhua News Agency reported.
"All the players are so excited to visit the country, and it will be a great fun in interacting with the Korean people," Rodman told Xinhua.
The basketball players were invited to visit a month ago. It is the Harlem Globetrotters' 122nd stop on their current world tour, player Bull Bullard said.
"We are expecting to have great exchanges with the Korean kids and families which, we always love, no matter South or North," Bullard said.
"We are going to have big smiles and many handshakes and lots of entertainment with them," he added.
The number of exhibition matches the Globetrotters will perform was not reported.
Besides the sports events, the group is scheduled to visit Panmunjom on the border with South Korea and the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun in Pyongyang, the North Korean Foreign Ministry reported.

Here are tips from law enforcement officers concerning holiday shopping:
- If you're heading to the mall after dark, leave lights and a radio or television playing so it'll look like someone's home.
- While shopping, if you see people "hanging around" parking lots or decks, avoid the area. Notify the police or security department.
- Shop before dark if possible. Coordinate shopping trips with a friend if you plan to be out late. Always lock your car even if you're only going to be away for a few minutes.
- To discourage purse snatchers, don't overburden yourself with packages. Have purchases delivered whenever practical.
- Avoid carrying large amounts of cash. Pay for purchases with a check or credit card.
- Teach your children to go to a store clerk or security guard and ask for help if they should become separated in a store or shopping mall. They should never go into a parking lot alone.
The holiday shopping season is upon us and mixed among the revelers are a handful of ne'er-do-wells — those who take with no thoughts to giving.
"Be aware," said Randy Jones, a spokesman for the
According to local, state and national law enforcement officials, crime spikes during the holidays — both in shopping centers and at residences. At stores and in parking lots, thieves most often prey on shoppers who are alone, who park in isolated locations. Those who make up the criminal element want to strike fast and be gone quickly.
"If nothing else, think about your pocketbook and wallet," said Lt. Cyndi Ring of the Elon Police Department. "Put the strap to your pocketbook around your neck. If you've just got it in your hand, it's quick and easy to grab."
Wallets should go in a jacket pocket, not a back pants pocket.
Ring and other law enforcement officers said while it's important for shoppers to keep a grip on wallets and purses, it's equally important they keep their purchases out of sight — stashed in the car's trunk if possible. A car loaded with purchases that are readily visible is a car that's begging for someone to smash a window and steal.
Ring said if necessary, shoppers should consider making more than one shopping excursion. If a car's trunk is loaded with gifts, drive home and unload it before heading out again.
And when parking, Ring recommended, keep an eye out. It's best, she said, to park in a store's main lot where there's a lot of traffic — both foot and vehicular. Even if parking around the corner from the store in the dark saves a few steps, it's safer to park where there are more lights.
"Pay attention to who's around," Ring advised. "Have your key out. Look in your car before you get in."
Ring said when shoppers return home, they shouldn't advertise the fact they've got lots of new-bought presents inside. Don't leave the garage door open, she said, and don't drag the box the new
Even advertising on Facebook or other social media sites that you're heading out to the mall for an extended period isn't a good idea, Ring said. There's no telling who might pick up on such information, she said, and come calling while you're out.

Asparagus, Cheese and Egg Tartlets
These delightful tartlets contain a combination of melted cheese, lightly sautéed asparagus tips and whole, lightly baked eggs. They are simple to prepare and just need popping into the oven 12-15 minutes before they are served. Vegetarians might like to know that a vegetarian parmesan-style cheese is available from www.bookhamcheese.co.uk
Serves 6
|For the filling:
|7 oz (200 g) asparagus tips
|5 oz (150 g) Gruyère cheese, finely grated
|6 large eggs
|2 oz (50 g) Parmigiano Reggiano, finely grated (see recipe introduction)
|1 dessertspoon olive oil
|salt and freshly milled black pepper
|For the cheese pastry:
|2 oz (50 g) soft butter, at room temperature
|4 oz (110 g) plain flour
|1½ oz (40 g) strong Cheddar cheese, finely grated
|½ level teaspoon mustard powder
|pinch cayenne pepper
|1 beaten egg, for the glaze
|Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 4, 350°F (180°C).

|You will need six 4 inch (10 cm) quiche tins and a 5½ inch (14 cm) plain cutter or saucer.
This recipe comes from Delia's Vegetarian Collection.
First of all make the pastry by rubbing the butter into the flour, then add the cheese, mustard and cayenne. Mix with just enough cold water to make a smooth dough. Now place the dough in a plastic bag and rest in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Then roll out the pastry as thinly as possible and stamp or cut out 6 rounds. Line the tins with pastry, pushing the pastry into the tins and taking great care not to stretch it – this will stop it shrinking during cooking.
Bake the pastry cases for 15 minutes until lightly cooked. Remove them from the oven and brush the base and sides of each with beaten egg. Return to the oven and cook for 5 more minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling.
Wash the asparagus stalks and cut them into 1 inch (2.5 cm) oblique pieces, heat up the dessertspoon of oil in the frying pan, and gently sauté them for 5 minutes, keeping them on the move so that they don't burn.
Now divide the grated Gruyère cheese between the tartlet cases, spreading it out over the base and then place the asparagus pieces around the edge of each one, keeping the tips turned up to make a nice pattern on the top.
Next break an egg into a saucer or small bowl, then slip it into the centre of each tartlet. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle the tops with Parmigiano Reggiano and bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, depending on how you like your eggs cooked, but the white should be all set and the yolk still soft and creamy.
Serve immediately because if they wait around the eggs will go on cooking.
