Ridgeway Arizona Oil Corporation Gushes About Newest Arizona Project.
Just a scratch of the surface in Apache County, Arizona revealed one of the largest discoveries of Helium and CO2 gases in the country. In 1994, Ridgeway Arizona Oil Corporation (a wholly owned subsidiary of Ridgeway Petroleum, Corp.) drilled a "wildcat" well in the St. Johns Anticline in Apache County to test for oil and gas. Instead, they discovered a massive accumulation of Helium and CO2. (The Springerville Generating Station, owned and operated by Tucson Electric Power, is located between St. Johns and Springerville Arizona, and sits in the middle of this discovery.)
"With demand for helium and CO2 growing, we are very proud to have discovered one of the country's largest accumulations in Apache County, Arizona and Catron County, New Mexico. As Americans' demand for oil increases, we will be able to help decrease our reliance on foreign oil with enhanced oil recovery," said Walter B. Ruck, Ridgeway's President and Chief Executive Officer. "To put the magnitude of the find in perspective, there is enough CO2 in the St. Johns Anticline to service all of the CO2 needs of Arizona and a significant portion of the needs of California for the next 40 years," Ruck said.
The project is moving forward in 2001 with the construction of a CO2 liquification plant, access roads and a network of pipelines to allow production to commence in the summer of 2001. Later stages of the project will include a large Helium processing plant plus a facility to provide CO2 for enhanced oil recovery.
"After extensive research and planning, we are turning a corner on this project. It is an exciting time for Ridgeway and Apache and Catron Counties," Ruck said.
With minimal disturbance of the land and establishment of a processing plant, the Ridgeway Resource Park will produce significant quantities of CO2 that will be sold for use in Enhanced Oil Recovery in California and/or the Permian Basin, of eastern New Mexico and west Texas.
Using CO2, Enhanced Oil Recovery maximizes an oil well's capacity by extracting incremental oil from both working and "shut-in" wells, extending the life of the wells and reducing United States' dependence on foreign imports. Industries that benefit from low-cost CO2, as a result of proximity to production, for use in refrigeration, carbonation, agriculture and other applications can help spur economic development of the area through new growth.
Helium, because of its rare nature and important uses in many applications is a very valuable commodity. Although Helium represents less than 1 percent of the Ridgeway find, its value is one-third of the entire project. Helium is used in high technology fields for such applications as a gas for supersonic wind tunnels; a cooling medium for nuclear reactors; an artificial environment for deep sea divers; and in medical research, treatment and diagnosis. Liquid Helium is used to cool super-conducting magnets, which are essential to the operation of MRI systems and research instruments, while gaseous helium is used in the production of optical fibers and semiconductors, analytical processes and leak detection.
Ridgeway Arizona Oil Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ridgeway Petroleum, Corp., which has been exploring for oil and gas in North America since 1980. Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Ridgeway is now principally engaged in the business of development of its Helium and CO2 project. A publicly traded company on the Canadian Venture Exchange (CDNX: RGW), Ridgeway has holdings in Arizona, New Mexico and Alberta.
Walter B. Ruck, an oil industry veteran, has served as President and Chief Executive Officer since 1986. With more than 44 years' experience in the North American petroleum industry, Ruck has been involved in several major oil and gas discoveries in both the United States and Canada. His vision was instrumental in Ridgeway's Helium and CO2 discovery on the St. Johns Anticline.

We really don't know a whole heck of a lot right now about Dialed In, but what we do know is that horse racing betting fans are going absolutely crazy right now with this horse, as he is sure to be one of the morning line favorites for the race along with Uncle Mo.
3-1-0, 4 Races
Florida Derby
Holy Bull
1 1/8
|End Result
Robert LaPenta came very, very close to claiming his first Kentucky Derby last year with Ice Box, and he is hoping that he can get the job done with Dialed In this year instead. He has trusted Nick Zito with a number of his horses, and he hopes that the Hall of Famer is going to be to lead his top colt to victory this year for the bed of roses. Though Zito has had an absolutely phenomenal career, he really hasn't run that well here at the Derby when push has come to shove. He won this race with Strike the Gold in 1991 and Go For Gin in 1994, two of the best champions that this illustrious track has seen in quite some time, but he hasn't tasted the winner's circle since that point.
To make matters worse, jockey, Julien Leparoux hasn't won a Kentucky Derby either in his career. This is his fifth mount for the Kentucky Derby in his career, and he has never even put a horse on the board before, putting an immense amount of pressure on these two minutes for his career. This is clearly the best shot that he has ever had to win a Derby.
Leparoux was the jockey aboard Dialed In for all four of his lifetime races, just two of which were stakes races. We're a little concerned about the fact that he wasn't able to beat a very weak field in a prep race at Gulfstream Park, but in the two biggest prep races of the year there, the Holy Bull and the Florida Derby, he was able to close over two lengths in the stretch to come up roses.
Part of the problem that Dialed In will have in this race is the fact that he has never run in a race with anywhere near this many colts. We know that he is going to be coming from off of the pace, which does bode well, knowing that he has gained over three lengths on the lead in all of his races in his career. He maneuvered around nine other horses in a prep race as a two year old and got around seven others to win the Florida Derby, including Triple Crown contender, Shackleford, whom he nipped by a head to win the race.

FAS hires firm to help with national coach search
The Football Association of Singapore has engaged the services of an international sports talent recruitment firm to help identify potential candidates for the national coach position.
In a press statement on Friday evening, the FAS said that Sports Recruitment International, with its strong background in recruiting talent in the football industry, will supplement its own efforts.
Said FAS president Zainudin Nordin: "While we hope to finalise the appointment soon, we will not rush into making any decision.
"In the event that the new national coach could not be appointed in time for the team's first Asian Cup 2015 qualifying match, we will appoint a caretaker-coach to lead the Lions on an interim basis."

The Great Scot 2004: Helena's The Greatest; Former nurse scoops People's Oscar for 'adopting' Chernobyl kids #We honour ordinary people who have achieved the extraordinary # THE GREAT SCOTS.
SCOTLAND'S most inspirational mother Helena Cairns shed tears of joy last night as she was named Great Scot 2004.
Former nurse Helena, 45, scooped Scotland's top People's Oscar for fostering 28 little victims of the Chernobyl disaster. Helena, from Fort William, cannot have children of her own and survives on disability allowance after an agonising blood disorder forced her to give up work.
Yet the woman friends know as Mother Russia has been 'mum' to children ravaged by cancer and heart problems from the radioactive fallout that poisoned their home in 1986.
Helena's tender loving care, Scotland's clean air and proper medical attention has given them a fresh chance at life.
She was nominated by her friend Suzanne Theobald, who said: 'She's a real inspiration. I knew she was a Great Scot - and I'm so glad that the rest of Scotland agreed with me.'
Helena collected her award at Scotland's party of the year to honour the best our country has to offer. It was hosted by Dougie Donnelly, in front of a glittering array of stars at Glasgow's Hilton Hotel. Helena was picked by the judges from thousands of nominations sent in by Sunday Mail readers and main sponsors Lloyds TSB Scotland.
Four extraordinary Scots received unsung hero awards - and for the first time in the event's 14-year history they were all women.
Talented actress Paula Sage, 24, has Down's Syndrome but went on to win rave reviews in the film AfterLife, which moved Sean Connery to tears. Not bad for a girl who doctors said would never walk or talk.
Lawyer Olivia Giles, 37, raised almost pounds 500,000 for meningitis charities after losing her hands and feet to the disease. She helps others, like quadruple amputee Paige Allen, aged two, live with the legacy of meningitis.
Helen Ann Lundie, 38, runs the West of Scotland Football Club for the Physically Disabled, giving joy to 30 young men with disabilities ranging from cerebral palsy to amputated limbs.
Gemma Russell, 19, gave up her flat and moved in with her young cousins to raise them after their mum died of cancer. The boys, Dagan, 15, and 13-year-old Ross Arif, hadn't seen their dad in 10 years and would have been placed into care had it not been for Gemma.
It was also a night to honour some Great Scots who have carried the Saltire around the world.
Movie star Brian Cox flew in from Los Angeles to pick up a Great Scot Lifetime Achievement Award as his proud family from Dundee cheered him on.
It was a big night for his home town, as the city's Liz McColgan - Scotland's greatest-ever athlete - presented the sports award to two-time Olympic medal-winning yachtswoman Shirley Robertson.
Pop group Franz Ferdinand and flamboyant TV interior designers Justin Ryan and Colin McAllister scooped music and entertainment awards.
A special Lloyds TSB Scotland Better Life award went to the Princess Royal Trust East Ayrshire Carers Centre, which gives support to more than 3500 carers. They provide an annual free holiday for young carers as well as ensuring they receive Christmas and birthday gifts.
Women of Influence received the charity award after raising pounds 135,000 for children's charity NCH.
Sunday Mail editor Allan Rennie said: 'I would like to thank all our readers for their thousands of nominations. There are unsung heroes all over our little nation - and this night is for them.'
Brave: Meningitis victim Olivia; Worthy: Footie club boss Helen; Sacrifices: Teenager Gemma; Inspiration: Actress Paula; Saviour: Foster; mum Helena offers Chernobyl victims like little Anya fresh hope

Carolyn Lambeth, Engineer, Navy Combat Direction Systems Activity
The Navy thinks 3D printing can eliminate a wide range of challenges with its supply chain. The service is already testing the idea of using additive manufacturing technologies to build small spare parts aboard ships, as they're needed, rather than having to transport them from supply ships or distant warehouses. And one day, the service thinks the technology could even be able to build a small UAV at the press of a button. Carolyn Lambeth is a mechanical engineer for Combat Direction Systems Activity at Dam Neck, Virginia. She explained the future of 3D printing at the Navy on In Depth with Francis Rose.

Entergy, Vt. square off over nuke plant's future
BRATTLEBORO, Vt. A newly released internal email from Entergy Corp. shows the company desperately trying to shore up flagging public support in Vermont in the weeks before and after a state Senate vote last year to close the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant.
The memo, from Curtis Hebert, a former Entergy vice president and former chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, was made public Monday in a federal court trial in which New Orleans-based Entergy is suing the state of Vermont for moving to shut the plant down when its initial 40-year license expires next March.
Hebert's May 6, 2010, email to Entergy CEO J. Wayne Leonard came after revelations that January that radioactive tritium had been leaking into soil and water around Vermont Yankee, and that plant officials had misled state regulators and lawmakers by saying the plant didn't have the kind of underground piping that carried tritium.
Hebert cited several reasons Vermont political leaders - Democrat, Republican and Progressive - were upset with Entergy in the winter of 2010. The state Senate defeated a bill that February to allow Entergy to seek regulatory approval to continue running the plant. The reasons for the state's angst included:
- The January 2010 announcement that radioactive tritium was leaking from the Vernon reactor, and the revelation a week later that plant personnel had misled state lawmakers and regulators;
- A plan by Entergy, since scuttled, to sell Vermont Yankee and four other nuclear plants to a newly created company that many state officials thought was not being set up with enough money to run a fleet of nuclear plants;
- Resistance by the company to the demand from many lawmakers that Entergy put more money into the fund to pay for dismantling the plant when it stops operating;
- The failure by Entergy and Vermont's power companies to agree on a deal under which the companies would buy power from Vermont Yankee if it ran past the end of its initial license's expiration date in March of 2012.
Hebert wrote of the company's misleading statements about underground piping. "The evidence was clear that the testimony (before the Vermont Public Service Board) had been incomplete, and this had a corrosive effect on our supporters throughout the state, particularly our strongest and most visible supporter: (then) Vermont Governor James Douglas, who stated he had lost confidence in Entergy and VY."
On the corporate spinoff plan he wrote: "The implosion of Wall Street and a number of high-profile corporate bankruptcies in 2008-2009 added to this general sense of mistrust and malaise."
The Hebert memo could help the state establish it had reasons for closing Vermont Yankee aside from concerns about nuclear safety. In its suit against Vermont, the company maintains nuclear safety is the state's main worry, and that federal law pre-empts the state from taking action on that topic, leaving it solely to the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
The trial, being heard by Judge J. Garvan Murtha without a jury, is expected to last through Wednesday, followed by a chance for lawyers to file follow-up briefs. It's unknown when the judge might rule.

Access Control
- Elena Ferrari
- … show all 1 hide
Authorization verification
Access control deals with preventing unauthorized operations on the managed data. Access control is usually performed against a set of authorizations stated by Security Administrators (SAs) or users according to the access control policies of the organization. Authorizations are then processed by the access control mechanism (or reference monitor) to decide whether each access request can be authorized or should be denied.
Historical Background
Access control models for DBMSs have been greatly influenced by the models developed for the protection of operating system resources. For instance, the model proposed by Lampson [16] is also known as the access matrix model since authorizations are represented as a matrix. However, much of the early work on database protection was on inference control in statistical databases.
Then, in the 1970s, as research in relational databases began, attention was directed towa ...

(See individual tests for specific requirements)
- Adult Venipuncture Policy
- Capillary Collection
- Blood Culture Collection
- Pediatric Venipuncture
- Specimen Labeling and Test Requisition Requirements
- Venipuncture Site Selection Guidelines
To maintain and facilitate patient care as well as to fulfill safety and legal requirements of appropriate accrediting agencies, it is the policy of the University of North Carolina Hospitals to require complete labeling of patient specimens and requisitions. This procedure is consistent with JCAHO, CAP, AABB and FDA regulations and with Universal ("Standard") Blood and Body Fluid Precautions.
- Every specimen container label MUST include:
- Patient's first and last name
- Patient's Medical Record number
- Date and time of collection
- Initials of collector
- Every specimen slide for Cytopathology MUST be labeled on the frosted end with a lead pencil and include:
- Patient's first and last name
- Patient's Medical Record number
- Source of specimen
- Do NOT label slide folder
- Every ThinPrep vial submitted to Cytopathology for gyn testing (Pap smear) must be labeled with patient's first and last name and patient's medical record number. It should be accompanied by a requisition with the matching patient identifiers. Unlabeled ThinPrep specimens will be rejected and a new specimen collection required. Mismatched requisitions and specimen containers will also be rejected and a new specimen collection required.
Every requisition MUST include:
- Patient's first and last name
- Patient's Medical Record number
- Patient's date of birth
- Patient's location
- Date and time of collection
- Initials of collector
- Requesting physician and UNC Hospitals physician code number
- Tests ordered, on the appropriate requisition
- Anatomic location of specimen site, where required
- All relevant patient clinical data for Anatomic Pathology and Cytopathology specimens (NOTE: menstrual history is of paramount importance on Gynecological Cytopathology specimens)
Priority requests:
- STATS: Emergency procedures should be indicated by attaching a completed red STAT slip to the regular requisition, or by inputting the order in EPIC with a STAT priority.
Inpatient specimen labeling:
- All specimens (except slides) must be labeled with a barcode ID label.
- All specimens must be labeled at bedside immediately upon collection and before leaving the patient's room.
- If a label is completed by hand at the patient's bedside (e.g., filling in unreadable or missing letters or numbers), the specimen is acceptable as long as the information is correct and consistent with the requisition.
Outpatient specimen labeling:
- All specimens must be labeled with a barcode ID label or with a computer-generated Lab Information System label,
- All specimens must be labeled immediately upon collection.
Specimen acceptance:
- Under universal sample precautions, only specimens collected in appropriate containers (e.g., screw top tubes for CSF) will be accepted. Needle-capped syringes will not be accepted, except for Cytopathology aspirates.
- Contaminated specimen containers and/or requisitions are not acceptable and will not be processed by the laboratories.
- Unlabeled, illegible or improperly labeled specimens and/or requisitions will not be processed.
- Specimen and/or requisition rejections will be handled according to a uniform acceptance procedure within the Department of Hospital Laboratories. Written notification/documentation of the rejection will be included in the patient's permanent chart.
- Questions regarding specific specimens should be directed to the individual laboratory supervisor.
Specimen Transportation:
- Specimens of blood or other potentially infectious materials shall be placed in a well constructed container with a secure lid (e.g., Vacutainer blood collection tube) which prevents leakage during collection, handling, processing, storage, transport, or shipping. If outside contamination of the primary container occurs, then a second leak proof container shall be placed over the outside of the first and closed to prevent leakage during handling, storage, or transport. Specimens which leave the hospital must be labeled with a BIOHAZARD label.
- When transporting multiple specimens of blood or other potentially infectious materials within the facility, a BIOHAZARD labeled transport container (i.e., BIOHAZARD labeled pail or cooler) shall be used.
- For further information on transportation on Infectious Substances or Diagnostic Specimens, see the McLendon Clinical Laboratories Safety Manual, Chapter V.B., Shipment of Biological Specimens. and UNC Hospitals Infection Control Manual, Exposure Control Plan for Bloodborne Pathogens.
- For transport of specimens via the Computerized Tube System (CTS) see the CTS Policy.

even the matchup angle doesn't account for that big a difference in the scorelines. federer was clearly playing better than nadal was ...
federer in USO 2011 was playing pretty well , would have a pretty good chance vs nadal ...
I would give Tsonga better chance, he def Nadal before Wimbledon on grass, Federer is 2-8 vs Nadal, 0-2 on HC Majors

27:0387(52)AR - AFGE Local 2004 and New Cumberland Army Depot -- 1987 FLRAdec AR
[ v27 p387 ]
The decision of the Authority follows:
27 FLRA No. 52 AMERICAN FEDERATION OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, LOCAL 2004 Union and NEW CUMBERLAND ARMY DEPOT Activity Case No. 0-AR-1300 DECISION I. Statement of the Case This matter is before the Arbitrator on an exception to the award of Arbitrator Walter H. Powell filed by the Activity under section 7122(a) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute and part 2425 of the Authority's Rules and Regulations. II. Background and Arbitrator's Award The grievant was suspended for five days for misuse of sick leave, specifically for failing to request sick leave in accordance with established policies and for failing to provide an adequate medical certificate supporting his absences from work. He was also charged as being absent without leave (AWOL) for the three days not covered by the medical certificate. A grievance was filed contesting the suspension and the matter was submitted to arbitration. The Arbitrator found that the parties' agreement requires that in circumstances in which sick leave abuse is indicated the employee will be provided a letter of understanding that medical certification will be required in the future. He found that although there was evidence that the grievant was abusing sick leave, the Activity did not issue him the required letter of understanding. The Arbitrator concluded that both the Activity and the grievant had disregarded the agreement and regulations concerning sick leave. Accordingly, as his award, the Arbitrator reduced the grievant's suspension from five days to one and sustained the charge of three days of AWOL. III. Discussion The Activity contends the Arbitrator exceeded his authority under the parties' agreement by substituting his judgment for that of the Activity as to the reasonableness of the penalty. We conclude that the Activity has failed to establish that the Arbitrator's award is deficient on any of the grounds set forth in section 7122(a) of the Statute; that is, that the award is contrary to any law, rule or regulation or that the award is deficient on other grounds similar to those applied by Federal courts in private sector labor-management relations. See, for example, Federal Correctional Institution, Petersburg, Virginia and American Federation of Government Employees, Local 2052, Petersburg, Virginia, 13 FLRA 108 (1983) (exceptions that constitute nothing more than an attempt to relitigate the merits of a dispute before the Authority and disagreement with

Good base but try using white wine instead of water. Deglaze before adding juices. I added minced jalapenos and cilantro for a little heat. I also added a pat of butter after reducing for a little creaminess.
too sweet, would recommend trying with citrus juices on top of fish with some lemon pepper; much better; shame to waste fish with this glaze

Delicious, simple, easy. I used this on broiled Tilapia: just brushed it on before broiling til done. I used fresh orange and lime juice and bottled lemon. I also used Stevia sweetener (one packet for 2 servings) and it worked properly. I added a little sprinkle of crushed red pepper to the fish before cooking, which was a nice flavor, too.
This was fabulous! I was doing a "dinner in a hurry" and used fresh OJ, but botteled Lemon & Lime juices. I added a little orange zest to brighten the flavor and a bit of ginger for kick. And I thickened with a little corn starch. My hubby and I both loved it and I will be making this regularly.
Excellent, easy recipe.
I tried it on salmon... prepared fish with very light oil and some salt, lightly brushed on glaze before grilling. Cooked as usual, recoat with glaze, and serve as a sauce. I'll break this one out for company I want to impress.
this just didn't do it for us. I was looking for more of an orange glaze and I think the lemon I used was way too big. I used chicken stock in place of the water and a dash of balsamic vinegar. Too lemony, next time leave out the lemon and lime, just use orange maybe.
I was looking for an easy way to give some flavor to my mahi mahi & this recipe worked great! I didn't have a real orange so I used regular orange juice & cut back on the water and sugar a bit, but it still worked. I'm sure with a freshly juiced orange, it would be even better!
Not thick enough to be a glaze. It was runny and I could hardly taste it. I was disappointed.

"It still comes down to tackling," said head coach Tim Beckman. "It still comes down to rushing the passer, and catching the football on interceptions. But I think we've gotten better. We see that as a defense throughout this preseason."
That defense was one of the worst units in the Big Ten last year, finishing near the bottom of the conference in almost every major category. Defensive coordinator Tim Banks hopes the struggles are a thing of the past.
"The problem last year was you fix one, something else came about," he said. "You fix that, something else came about. So hopefully we've had a chance to look over all those things during the offseason, make adjustments where we needed to make adjustments, make sure we got the right people in the right places, and then obviously we just gotta go out and execute."

State Sen. Hollis French, a West Anchorage Democrat and one of the most vocal critics of Republican Gov. Sean Parnell, announced Wednesday that he has filed the paperwork and is taking steps toward a possible run at the state's top job.
As French stepped forward, another Senate Democrat from Anchorage, Bill Wielechowski, said he is considering a bid for lieutenant governor on an independent ticket with Republican Bill Walker. Wielechowski had been mentioned as a possible Democratic candidate for governor himself.
Parnell, who slipped into the governor's office in 2009 after Sarah Palin quit the job, is seeking his second full term. French would have to give up his Senate seat to run. Rep. Mia Costello, R-Anchorage, already has indicated she intends to try for his Senate seat.
"This is a do-or-die for him," if he takes on Parnell, political consultant Marc Hellenthal said.
French said he decided to file a letter of intent with the state Division of Elections during a recent family reunion vacation in Colorado. His two sisters, brother and father were all there.
"I got great support from them, great support from the inner circle sort of folks," French said. That, combined with Walker's decision to run as an independent candidate, convinced him to file the preliminary paperwork, which allows him to begin raising and spending money.
He said he intends to travel to Fairbanks and Juneau, and on to other cities, to start "a broader conversation about is this winnable and would I be the best candidate."
French, 54, is a former state prosecutor and oil-field worker first elected to the Senate in 2002.
He said the governor is vulnerable on three key issues: the massive oil-tax cuts Parnell pushed through this year, Parnell's decision not to raise the level of per-student funding for K-12 classrooms, and Parnell's refusal to expand the pool of Alaskans eligible for Medicaid.
Parnell campaign manager Jerry Gallagher immediately linked French to President Obama, part of the national Republican strategy.
"Gov. Parnell remains focused on growing economic opportunity for Alaskans through lower taxes, fighting federal overreach, and increasing educational opportunity," Gallagher said in a written statement. "So far, the other candidates for governor, including Hollis French, mirror President Obama's policies of higher taxes and bigger government. The voters will have a clear choice in November 2014."
With French's announcement, Walker, an attorney who has been pushing an in-state natural gas pipeline for years, said he intends to remain focused on the general election. He said Alaskans are ready to step away from partisan politics.
Walker, like French and Wielechowski, a big critic of Senate Bill 21, the oil-tax cuts, had announced in April that he was going to challenge Parnell in the primary but on Aug. 1 said he instead intended to run as an independent.
Political consultant Ivan Moore has called for Wielechowski, a lawyer who has been considering a run for governor, to pair up with Walker as an independent lieutenant governor candidate. Otherwise, Walker and the prospective Democratic candidate would split the anti-Parnell vote, both Moore and consultant Hellenthal say.
Asked about that Wednesday, both Walker and Wielechowski said they have been talking about running together. Walker said he would be the top of the ticket but if elected, they would work as a team. They would need to collect about 3,000 signatures to get on the ballot, Walker said.
"Let's just say all options are on the table," Wielechowski said. "I would never compromise my political values. So there's a lot of discussion that is going on."
French is a good friend and close colleague who would make a great governor, Wielechowski said. But the central question, he said, is "what's the best possible way we can have a change in the executive branch. I genuinely believe we cannot afford four more years of Sean Parnell."
The race isn't about him, Wielechowski said. "It's about what is the best combination you can put together to win this race so we can get some rational thinking back in our government."
Walker said he and Wielechowski have had lengthy discussions about what kind of administration they would lead. A decision on whether to team up should be made sometime after Labor Day, Wielechowski said.
Walker is anti-abortion but said he wouldn't set out to restrict access to abortion or otherwise push for change on social issues. He's not opposed to gay marriage, for instance, but wouldn't seek to undo the constitutional amendment defining marriage in Alaska as between a man and a woman. Like French, he said he would have allowed an expansion of the Medicaid program and is against proposed school vouchers that would allow public money to be spent on private schooling.
French said he didn't consider teaming up with Walker.
Earlier in the day, another Anchorage Democrat who had considered a run, Rep. Les Gara, said he was hoping that French or Wielechowski would come forward.
"It's the happiest day in the world for me that Hollis going to run," Gara said.
French made a bid for governor four years ago but lost in the Democratic primary to former Rep. Ethan Berkowitz, who in turn was defeated by Parnell. French said he learned a lot in that first statewide race.
When a bipartisan coalition ruled the state Senate through the 2012 Legislature, French chaired the Judiciary Committee and was able to block or control key legislation, including efforts to restrict abortion. He managed the Legislature's Troopergate investigation into whether Palin abused her powers in firing her public safety commissioner. He took heat for it at the time. "I was asked to do a very difficult job, and I did it," French said.
A referendum to wipe out the new law cutting oil taxes is headed for the August 2014 primary ballot. How voters decide that may well foretell his chances three months later in the general election, French said. Hellenthal said it will be challenging to keep the tax issue front and center once voters have their say.
Public Policy Polling, a national polling firm based in Raleigh, N.C., that works for Democratic and progressive candidates, matched up Democrats against Parnell in a July poll. The poll of 890 likely voters found that all the Democrats were behind the incumbent.
Asked who they would pick in a contest between Parnell and French, 54 percent of the voters picked the governor and 33 percent picked the senator. The numbers fluctuated slightly for other possible match-ups, with Berkowitz faring the best.
While Republicans far outnumber Democrats in Alaska, most voters are either nonpartisan or don't declare a party when registering.
This early in the election cycle, French said, he expected to be behind in the polls. He said he hasn't done his own polling yet. Having Walker in the race should help him, French said.
"It's not going to take me long to make a decision. I just need to test the waters and talk to folks around the state and hold some get-togethers," French said.

The strength of the screenplay and acting provide a satisfying, although not overwhelming, two hours of romance, drama, and tragedy.
The film, like the book, is clear-eyed without being clinical, reflective but never maudlin.
It resonates with gleaming ferocity as it unspools a story of regret, longing and resolution in two generations of women.
It's like a Harlequin romance trying to pass itself off as something deeper and more profound.
Susan Minot's resplendent novel of a dying woman…stumbles on its way to the screen.
Whatever Evening is saying about life, death, and guilt isn't terribly new or interesting.
Rather than concentrate on Ann's disappointed infatuation and providing a satisfactory reason for its failure, Minot and, one suspects, Cunningham in particular, chose to flesh out the character of Buddy.
Individual moments are not without their felicitous touches -- mainly due to the cast, which is rich to the point of improbability.
Despite the show-offy cast, it took me a while to warm to these people and their self-consciously idyllic settings--as well as to the slick direction of former cinematographer Lajos Koltai--but I was eventually won over.
Evening is so distanced from the emotions of the story that it never breathes on its own.
For all the creaminess of the sets and costumes, every character talks as if she is still made out of written words, not flesh, and each woman's struggles feel about as important as a tea dance.
The film is based on a novel by Susan Minot--one of those books where the author doesn't deign to put dialogue in quotation marks for fear of dispelling the dreamlike mood. It works on paper, but Minot, who shares credit for the adaptation with fellow novelist Michael Cunningham, doesn't understand that screenwriting is the art of taking away.
Parked uneasily between sensitive indie and studio chick-flick, Lajos Koltai's Evening makes star-studded hash of Susan Minot's beautifully written, if emotionally constricted, novel.
Evening feels like one of those devil's-candy productions that aim to bring artistry to a large audience, specifically a large audience of adult women who don't often go to the movies. Even considering it in that light, I found it miscalculated and overcooked.
The performances, especially by Hugh Dancy as a sexually confused rich kid, are overwrought, and the script, which Michael Cunningham ("The Hours") wrote in collaboration with Minot, is slack.
High-grade cheese, the sort of highly pitched melodrama that in the 1950s would have been the stuff of a lurid, lavishly staged Douglas Sirk picture.
Evening is a case study in how a subtly evocative book can elude the most well-intentioned filmmakers and some of our finest actors.
Evening might be the most shocking waste of natural resources since the despoiling of the Amazon rain forest.
The characters, full of blue-blood archness and angst, are partial to self-conscious speechifying.
Evening"has so much going for it. A great cast, amazing visuals, and solid directing throughout. So why did I leave the film saying aloud to the parking lot, "I didn't like it."
A mistake was made: Evening is a book that would have been best left on the page.
For all of its class-act bona fides, Evening lurches between the morose and the sentimental, with occasional incursions into the absurd.
Rarely have so many gifted women labored so tastefully to bring forth such a wee, lockjawed mouse.
Evening proves that there are such things as mistakes, by featuring two hours of bad choices and half-executed ideas.
Redgrave still manages to inspire awe, yet a poetically prosaic moment like the one in which she goes chasing after a butterfly is enough to throw a net over the whole thing.

Ginebra nips Petron for a crucial semis win in a fitting ending
More News from Celest R. Flores
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines—There could not have been a better ending to Ginebra's Sunday night.
With big shots after the other, Ginebra pulled off an escape act over Petron, 87-85, in the semifinals of the 2012 PBA Governor's Cup, on the same night that its most iconic player was being celebrated.
Import Cedric Bozeman delivered the game-clinching floater with three tenths of a second left in the clock after forward Dylan Ababou scored a crucial and-one as the Gin Kings nabbed a crucial victory, which puts them by a full game over Petron.
"God couldn't have written it better, on the night we're celebrating the foundation of Ginebra which is coach Sonny," said head coach Siot Tangquincen, whose squad is now at 7-4.
Tangquingcen admitted, on the other hand, that the final shot wasn't supposed to go to Bozeman as it was for Caguioa.
But although he didn't get the leather on the last play, Caguioa–expected to lead Ginebra like Robert "Sonny" Jaworski did–was still the best player of the court with 25 points, six rebounds and four assists.
Bozeman and Ababou chipped in 13 points apiece.
It was a game of runs, solid 'playoff fouls', and buzzer beater shots–one per each ending to a quarter–which was only fitting after a momentous ceremony for the PBA living legend Jaworksi.
No team gave an inch in the deciding period, especially the Gin Kings who had just wrestled the lead to their favor after playing catch up for most of the night.
Ginebra overhauled an 11-point deficit at the end of third and turned to Caguioa to give them the lead, 81-80, with his own four-point swing.
That lead was quickly neutralized by the Boosters in the final two minutes, and once again leaned on Alex Cabaganot to bail them out with a game-tying shot with 15.9 seconds left.
But Petron left enough time and room for Bozeman to score than final basket which led to its fifth setback with six victories, and now at the back of Ginebra.
The Boosters had the upperhand for the most part, as they weathered through all of the Gin Kings scoring burst–except for the last run–behind Dondon Hontiveros, Chriz Lutz and new import Marcus Faison.
Faison finished with 19 points but just scored two points in the fourth quarter, Lutz added 17 points while Hontiveros poured eight of his 11 markers in the third quarter.

I fear my life is in peril. Where I am or how I got here I have no recollection of, for my memory is fragmented and my mind scattered. I find it necessary to write down my thoughts for fear of losing them again. I don't know how many times I have drifted in and out of consciousness, or for how long I have been here. I see visions beyond this nightmare, visions of wood and carpet instead of stone and dirt, I hear rain.

Very good CS. I was pleasantly surprised that it really only had one cheap scare. The boss fight was intuitive, but wasn't very difficult to accomplish. Overall I would have liked to see, not necessarily more content, but content that took longer to accomplish (ie: harder puzzles). If you don't search for the three secret room keys, you can finish this story relatively quickly.

Its got very well placed scares and visuals worthy of some of the best Amnesia mods out there. The thing that I comment is that the scares are never really cheap unless you count the that one with the ironmaiden, the thing that stands out is that this is a tale of madness, a tale of the one who goes through ones own personal hell, purgatory and then reaches the epitomy of what it all beckons you to. Its a classic for sure and those who have played all the good mods out there can probably find some good quality content here even though it uses mostly the same assets as the original does, the sounds are mostly new.
I would recommend this to Amnesia fans until we finally get Machine for Pigs.

What a great mod!
But what a shame my game is glitched at the same part two times in a row... (Yes I, downloaded the patches and everything was in the right order) I already tried to load autosaves but it stays the same. I stick the rods into place put all the levers in order and I get the message "Combination accepted". Sounds good right, except for the part that the Machine won't run. No noise, just silence and I can't open the door to the chapel. I am SO dissapointed about this because this mod is so great. Afer trying like dozens of times loading all kind of different saves and do a complete new game it still doesn't work. Therefore I cannot rate higher. I watched a playtrough on youtube to find out how it ended. I hope you do get the 1.1v out maybe then I would play it agian.

Ok , i liked pretty much everything except the sewer part cause it was impossible to figure out that you should go there and the frustrating boss part where i knew exactly what to do but it was so difficult cause of some stupid mechanics ( stupid door opening and closing by itself), some bugs ( sometimes you couldnt open the door of the holy room) and the irritating turns of the camera when the boss was coming out and you were trying to prepare. Cause of these i think that many people won' t see the end and thats sad .

Oh my god, I just beat the story with all relics and... Just wow. You should be commended for making something that unique and gripping with DEFAULT AMNESIA OBJECTS. The only two problems I had with it was there was not enough Laudanum. And that for okay-ish computers, the large "hub" room that you start chapter 2 in lags at about 10 FPS anywhere in the map. I don't know if you can, but if you can tone down the mapping for that particular map, like, split the big hallway towards the mechanical door with a loading screen, that would be great.

I think it is very fun, and the boss fight made it 100000X better. The only reason I said an 8 was because I pickedup something and it stretched across the whole map, but didn't interfere with me. That and I can't rate a 9 or 10 because I just created an account. check out my walkthrough of this custom story. youtube.com/mrmoskyz

If you're like me, when someone asks you to make a piece of jewelry for them you automatically go to beads, findings, wire, and thread. But after reading through Elements of Style, I think I'll open my mind a little wider next time.
Color is such a key element of good design. Yet each of us wrestles now and then with being in a color rut—"I only buy purple beads"—or wondering what shade of blue brings out the best in a new multicolored lampwork pendant. Do you ever watch The View on TV? If so, you'll understand how much fun it is to poll several of our bead magazine editors and learn new and different angles from each one.

Lexus is wasting no time with the refreshed 2014 CT 200h. They have announced the pricing for the 2014 model which is $32,050 (not including a $910 destination charge). That happens to be the same price as the outgoing 2013 model.
The most notable change on the 2014 CT 200h is the introduction of the Lexus spindle grille which gives the CT a much needed shot of aggression. Other exterior changes include new front and rear bumpers, LED Daytime Running Lights, and a larger rear spoiler. Inside, the CT 200h gets the latest version of Lexus' infotainment system and additional interior finishes.
Not seeing a change at all is the powertrain. The CT 200h will still utilize a 1.8L four-cylinder engine paired with a 650 Volt motor/generator for a total output of 134 horsepower. EPA fuel economy ratings stand at 43 City/40 Highway/42 Combined.
The 2014 CT 200h arrives at Lexus dealers sometime in late January or early February.

BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- Welcome to the end of a crazy week. Some of you are still dealing with the lack of electricity or damage caused by Hurricane Sandy, but here's hoping the weekend starts to bring some relief.
This week's Biotech Stock Mailbag is a continuation of Tuesday's live chat. About 1,200 readers posted 390 comments and questions on a thoughtful variety of biotech stocks. A great turnout and much appreciated. Unfortunately, it was only possible for me to publish and respond to a fraction of those questions. (I published or answered 17% of the comments and questions sent to me Tuesday, to be precise.)
Let's see if I can improve upon that response rate today.
Amarin (AMRN) was definitely the most queried biotech stock during Tuesday's live chat.Patrick writes: "Amarin is a definite takeout, not sure if the price will be in the mid-20s, though." Bravo33: "You mentioned in commentary back in June that getting NCE for Amarin was more important than its targeted patents. That seems counterintuitive. Do you still hold that belief?" The five years of market exclusivity that comes with New Chemical Entity (NCE) status and long-lived patents are important. The mistake Amarin bulls made was the belief that the NCE decision (or lack thereof) was insignificant. Without NCE, Amarin can expect genetic drug makers to quickly file a challenge to Vascepa patents. Generic makers could also try to develop a prescription-grade fish-oil compound that works around Amarin's patents. It's true that these things could happen even if FDA grants Vascepa NCE status, but the timeline is accelerated without NCE. That's why the current NCE mess/delay has weighed heavily on Amarin's stock price. David comments: "The new AstraZeneca (AZN) CEO suspended the stock buyback. Many believe he won't waste much time in putting that cash to use to address the dearth of AstraZeneca's late-stage assets. Forest Labs (FRX) is seen by some as a fit, Amarin potentially as well. Thoughts?" We've seen a lot of speculation linking Amarin to a number of Big Pharma suitors, not just AstraZeneca. I can't sit here and say a deal will never happen, but at the same time, I'll remind you that Big Pharma tends to buy assets with maximum market exclusivity and long-lived patents. Patent expirations and generic competition are the reasons many Big Pharma companies are in trouble today, so the last thing they'll do today is buy a drug with a high risk of generic challenge. MP asks: "How do you know Amarin patents are not important for NCE decision?" Because I've read the FDA regulations explaining how the NCE decision is made. The decision boils down to whether the active moiety of a drug has received FDA approval previously. Patents don't play a role in the decision: This is how FDA defines active moiety: "The molecule or ion, excluding those appended portions of the molecule that cause the drug to be an ester, salt (including a salt with hydrogen or coordination bonds), or other non-covalent derivative (such as a complex, chelate, or clathrate) of the molecule, responsible for the physiological or pharmacological action of the drug substance." Vascepa's active moiety is EPA -- same as GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) Lovaza. Since Lovaza was previously approved and granted NCE status, FDA cannot grant NCE status to Vascepa. It doesn't matter that EPA concentrations and purity are higher in Vascepa than Lovaza, or that Amarin has granted patents on Vascepa. FDA can make exceptions or Amarin can appeal a negative decision. My guess is the delay in making a final ruling on NCE since Vascepa was approved in July is due to the latter. Zbyrnes asks: "Any theories behind the

Snyder, Bernero speak at forum in Grand Rapids
By AP
Grand Rapids, MI – Rick Snyder and Virg Bernero are giving their views on a variety of issues at the West Michigan Policy Forum.
Bernero was speaking first Friday morning to hundreds of leaders and policymakers at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids. Snyder was to go second.
A panel posed questions about the economy, education and health care and dealing with the state deficit, among other issues.
Bernero and Snyder did not appear on the stage together.
The pair shared a stage Monday when Bernero showed up at a Snyder town hall meeting to ask Snyder to sit down with him and work out a schedule for debates.
Snyder so far hasn't agreed to reopen talks on debates. He says Bernero should have accepted his debate offer last week.
