By Sam Geraci: Since the tragic motorcycle accident that appears to have paralyzed Paul The Punisher Williams, one of this generations most exciting fighters, the handlers of rising superstar Saul Canelo Alvarez have been searching for the ideal September 15th replacement in order to produce a mega fight that not only brings in the dollars but also establishes Alvarez as a true 154lb champion.
While it seems as though Golden Boy Promotions has already chosen to go with one of their worthy fighters in James Kirkland (31-1, 27KOs), who may or may not be suffering from a serious shoulder injury come fight time, the three fighters below represent matchups that are also worthy of consideration and might produce more money and more excitement if marketed correctly.
In evaluating fighters for Alvarez for the September 15th card, one must weigh his lack of experience against top-level 154lb fighters against the potential financial and legacy-building rewards of a win or loss against the fighters on this list. That is why, for example, Miguel Cotto (37-3, 30 KOs) is number one while Carlos Molina (19-5-2, 6KOs) and Erislandy Lara (16-1-1, 11KOs) do not even appear on this list. Simply put, Cotto will bring the most to the table in all respects while Lara and Molina present huge risks that do not offer any of the financial or career-building rewards.
And, finally, the list: Three Fighters for Alvarez other than Kirkland
1. Miguel Cotto (37-3, 30KOs)
On the weekend that celebrates Mexicos Independence, I can think of no greater matchup than that of Mexicos biggest star against Puerto Ricos living legend. While Cottos skillset and experience are far beyond that of the young Alvarez and Cotto would definitely be favored, if Alvarez is the prospect that many of us, including myself, think he is, he should put up a good showing and might even sneak by with a close and controversial decision. While Cotto looked impressive in his loss to Floyd Money Mayweather (43-0, 26KOs), Alvarez deserves serious consideration for pulling off a close fight or a decision victory for the simple fact that Cotto is not really a true 154lb fighter. Despite the marketing that was done in the lead-up to his mega fight with Mayweather, Cotto has beaten only one true 154lb fighter in the grossly light-handed Yuri Foreman (28-2, 8KOS). Considering the money and the stardom that could be gained from a win, loss, or draw and considering that everyone agrees that Alvarez is a beatable fighter, I think it would be wise to cash-in go for Cotto if hell take it. In fact, I think you could make it an all Mexican vs. Puerto Rican card by pitting Alfredo Angulo (20-2, 17KOs) against Carlos Quintana (29-3, 23KOs) and Chris Arreola (35-2, 30KOs), who is a Dan Goosen fighter like Paul Williams so there shouldnt be any conflicts, against Fres Oquendo (34-7, 22KOs) in what would certainly rival the Pay-Per-View buys of any Mayweather or Pacquiao card.
2. Carlos Quintana (29-3, 23KOs)
While a matchup with the slick southpaw from Puerto Rico could be risky and doesnt present all of the rewards of a Cotto fight, a victory over Quintana, which seems likely considering Quintanas difficulties in taking clean shots and handling good pressure fighters, should establish Alvarez as a legitimate champion at 154lb while earning him another title and invaluable experience against a crafty southpaw. In addition, the Mexican vs. Puerto Rican theme could also help sell this matchup.
3. Vanes Martirosyan (32-0, 20KOs)
Of the fights available to Alvarez, I think the Martirosyan matchup is the least appealing because he lacks the big name and hasnt really defeated anyone of quality nor has he shown a willingness to take on anyone of quality with the exception of Alvarez to show that he deserves this opportunity on what could be one of boxings biggest nights of 2012. Having said that, he has been calling out Alvarez and he has earned his ranking with the WBC as their number one contender. If rankings meant anything to the WBC, Martirosyan would be the one to get this shot.
*If the winner of Cornelius Bundradge (31-4, 18KOs) vs. Cory Spinks (39-6, 11KOs) on June 30th were able and willing to fight, I would love to see him instead of Martirosyan at number three.

2>>made a hack image using x360 multibuilder 0.7 and flashed the .ecc file via nandpro.
programmed the matrix glitcher. soldered it to the motherboard and i was able to boot in to xell in like 25seconds.
3>>got the cpu key and the dvd key via xell.
4>>tried to open the nand dump via x360 flash dump tool to check the dvd drive firmware to make the KV.bin and got the error "wrong file size or unsupported". thats when i checked the nand size and knew it was only 12.3mb
5>>soldered my nand reader again and dumped the nand 2 times again. checked the size this time and it was 16.5mb.
6>>made the KV.bin using kv version 2 for slim liteon 0225.
7>>made a freeboot img for 14699 dash using the 16.5mb nand.
8>>flashed the freeboot image via nand pro.
now the xbox wont boot to nxe. if i boot it via the eject button it boots to xell just fine.

Graphic Painted Floors
I've always loved the look of painted floors. You can hide a lot of "bad" with a good paint job! If your floors are tired looking, or you don't like the colour of the wood, or you simply want to add some interest to them, then this is a relatively affordable option. Adding pattern to your floors with paint takes this idea up a notch. I'm not talking scrolly, stenciled looking patterns on your floor, though. I think graphic, geometric-inspired patterns make this look feel current, and give it a more youthful, modern appeal. The paint colours you choose obviously decide whether the look will be subtle or loud. That's what's so fun — you can customize every detail. These examples below show how painted floors can really add character and personality to a room.
A simple wide stripe is sophisticated but not stuffy.
This time the floor has been given a honeycomb pattern. The light grey on white washed wood softens the look.
No need for a rug in this entryway! And you're guaranteed to smile every time you walk in the door.
I think maybe this blog should be about honeycomb-patterned painted floors! Clearly that's what I'm drawn to. Here's another project by Sara Story. This picture has been seen so many times I know. The floors definitely contribute to making it feel so special.
This time black on white makes the honeycomb pattern bold and dramatic. Great for a dining room!
This would be fun in a kids' playroom. Actually, painted in the right colours, it would also be a fun pattern to paint onto your dining room floor – with your table centered in the middle.

Maine Escape
I've just returned from my favourite place — on earth, I think — the coast of Maine. We do a family trip down there every summer, to a beach not far from Kennebunkport. For me, the soft, white sandy beach, the seagrass, the dunes, the sound of the surf and the unmistakable salty smell of the ocean in the air is hard to beat. I have only missed one year since I was 4 years old. Having been going down to the same place for so long, I have built up a list of favorite things to do when we're there (the list seems to be growing every year). I thought I'd share some of these things — in case you ever find yourself in the area.
Favourite ocean-side hotel to grab a lobster roll (or a cocktail) is The Tides Beach Club, located on a 2½ mile stretch of beach called Goose Rocks Beach.
The view from the porch.
My favourite store in Kennebunkport is Daytrip Society. There you'll find an incredibly well curated group of products for the home (as well as some clothing and jewelry) including items made locally like the Sea Bag recycled sail bags and beautiful throws from Swans Island Blankets. I always leave the store with some neat finds.
My favourite place to buy fresh seafood to cook up for dinner is the Langsford Road Lobster and Fish House, in Cape Porpoise. They buy right from the lobster men off their own wharf, it's as fresh as you get!
My top place to watch the lobster boats come in is from the pier in Cape Porpoise. Heads up, the smell can be a little overwhelming at first! But it's one of the prettiest harbours around, with a view to Goat Islands' lighthouse as well.
My family's favorite ice-cream stop is Goose Rocks Beach Dairy.
I've definitely packed on a few pounds thanks to the amazing ice cream (and generous portions) at Goose Rocks Dairy. Fifty flavours — all hard to choose from — Like Peppermint Patty, Cherry Moose Tracks, and my personal fave, Coffee Oreo.
My favourite day-trip — which we haven't done now in a few years — is taking a ferry out from Boothbay Harbor to visit Monhegan Island. Monhegan thrives as a working lobstering community but it is also an artists' colony. It's a fun walk around the island (pack a picnic lunch, peruse the galleries and take in the stunning scenery).
Monhegan Island on a foggy day is just as beautiful.
My favourite place to go outlet shopping is in Freeport, Maine. It's worth the trip just to go to the famous L.L.Bean — you can never have enough of their canvas totes. Mine all come in very useful for lugging props around to shoots!

Made In The Shade
The weather seems to be what everyone is talking about these days. When the temperature soars, there's nothing better than sitting outside under the protection of a balcony ceiling or patio canopy. I think outdoor rooms are such a treat, although they certainly don't have to be over-the-top. We recently installed a simple black awning over our outdoor dining area and love the instant privacy/cocoon feeling it adds when extended.
Here are some inspiring covered outdoor "rooms" — relaxed, comfortable and so inviting. I'd love to kick back and relax in any of these spaces!
Last but not least, the ultimate seat in the shade, this one from the Dedon Island Resort in the Philippines. Luxury!

Outdoor Dining Furniture
Finally, the weather has warmed up enough to consider eating outdoors again. If you're in the market for a new set of dining furniture, here are a few options that I think would do the job nicely. Enjoy your alfresco dining in style!
The Dexter Dining Collection from West Elm has an expandable dining table, seating up to six when expanded. The driftwood finish has a nice, weathered look to it and the curved-back chairs have a modern elegance to them. There is also a lovely bench available in this collection, if you want to break up all the chairs.
I don't think Ikea's Äpplarö table and Högsten chairs are new this season, but I like how they've suggested these together as a set. I often prefer a "non-set" for dining furniture. I like mixing up the materials and styles — and it's especially fun to shake things up a bit in the backyard. The chairs are made from hand-woven plastic, which will withstand the elements. This "set" definitely has a nice, casual vibe to it.
Crate & Barrel's Darwin dining chair and bench are the perfect light pieces to balance their dark Montague dining table. Again, I like the mix here. The honey-toned teak chairs/bench (which, left untreated, will weather to a lovely silver grey) with white resin wicker pair nicely with the slated, aluminum table. It's always fun to bring in a bench, too — great for kids, and keeps things casual.
Hauser's Coastal dining table (shown here in the driftwood finish) is a modern version (actually made out of metal) of a picnic table. The trestle base is a classic design. It pairs nicely with Hauser's woven rattan Coastal dining chairs.
This Design Within Reach collection is a personal fave. I have the perforated metal Tolix Marais counter stools in my house and I love them. Mix and match with some Tolix Marais A chairs. The plum stools and gunmetal grey would add a nice contrast to a white dining table. I love the Tolix Marais four-seater dining table. I would have considered it for my own outdoor dining area had it been a bit bigger. Having said that, there's nothing stopping you from lining up two of these tables end-to-end.

Outdoor Lounge Furniture
Outdoor furniture options seem to keep getting better and better. Here are some new lounge pieces that have caught my eye, as well as some older favourites.
The Jardine double lounger from West Elm is made of tropical wood, is weather-resistant and has a great shape. It's the perfect place to stretch out with a drink and a magazine. Given there's enough space for two people, I suppose you could share it with a friend, too.
Fermob's Ultra-Sofa. This is a bit of a statement piece for sure — you'd have to be pretty confident about splurging on it! But I really love it. A few people could sit on it or you could lie down and lounge (they call it a sofa but I think it's equal parts chaise lounge!). The weather-proof fabric is wrapped around a thick foam lining, so it would be super comfy.
Restoration Hardware's Ibiza chaise is a modern take on the beanbag, and it looks so inviting! There are some great colours and fabrics (linen, twill, canvas) that you can choose from. I would own this in a heartbeat, I just wish it was in my price range!
Gloster's Solana lounger is another classic — albeit a more contemporary one. The teak frame will weather nicely over time and turn a lovely grey.
I could imagine a few of Hauser's Southampton chaise lounges lined up alongside a pool. And this all-weather wicker design will never go out of style.
I couldn't resist including this chaise lounge. Sika Design's Josephine outdoor rattan sunbed (available through Fresh Home & Garden) is so unique looking — it reminds me of those lovely Parisian café chairs. It's almost a shame to put a cushion on it, but I think you'd probably want to from a comfort standpoint.
For more great finds, see our Gardening & Outdoor Living section.

Colourful Finds For Winter
The short, grey days of winter seem to be catching up with me since I feel like I'm attracted to anything with colour right now. I can't get enough of crisp, fresh, happy accents that are easy to bring into the home. These are a few of my picks:
I love the mix of red and pink (a personal fave) and the Moroccan style of this West Elm rug.
The painterly effect of this new tea towel from Crate & Barrel is lovely. I'm a sucker for tea towels — I think they're one of the most affordable ways to bring colour and pattern into your kitchen. My fellow design editors have been known to frame their favourite tea towels, too — an inexpensive trick when you're trying to fill a blank wall.
This sweet felt garland from DwellStudio could be draped over a mirror, around a window frame, over the back of your headboard — anywhere really.
At $50, this Ikea coffee table is pretty affordable for a family room or basement. It's such a happy colour! Keep books, mags, puzzles and colouring supplies for kids stored on the shelf underneath. The castors and metal finish keep it casual.
Crate & Barrel's colourful take on the classic Thonet bentwood chair would be a cheery addition to a dining room or casual eating area. The apple green lacquer finish hits just the right note, and the acidity in the colour modernizes the design.
See our Colourful Contemporary Living Rooms photo gallery for more cheery inspiration.

A Chennai-based start-up bootstrapped by two young developers is trying to reinvent the online shopping experience. By creating listings based on real-time locations, it intends to make it easier for shoppers and residents to find exactly what they are looking for in a specific area.
"The advantages are plenty," says R. Senthil Raja, the 31-year-old co-founder of the real-time location-based classifieds service Localever. "Often any shopping experience – be it finding a rental home or a café, depends on the location. By building the classified listings based on locations, we are able to serve users with relevant results."
To demonstrate his point, Senthil used the example of a person trying to relocate to a city suburb in order to shorten the commute to his workplace. "If he were to go to any of the regular listings websites, the experience is similar to that of traditional classifieds, where the listings are based on keywords or a pin code," he said.
The real-time location based listing, on the other hand, will make it clear to the person looking for a house, where nearby amenities such as schools or hospitals are. Or it could even just list what the best cafes in the neighbourhood are.
Together with his co-founder and chief technology officer 29-year-old V. Ramesh Kumar, Senthil hopes to make Localever the go-to website for online shopping on both the web and mobile platforms. Begun in August last year, the service is at present live at www.localever.com, and the duo is already working on an Android application (app) that will be launched soon.
The site also has an innovative integration with professional social network LinkedIn, through which people who post classified advertisements — such as for used air-conditioners on sale — can first begin sales of their products to those within their office or their LinkedIn network. "That way, the sale often happens within one's known circle. This will make the sellers more comfortable," says Ramesh.
Localever brings an interesting dynamic to a fast-changing mobile landscape in India. Google estimates that there will be 400 million internet users in the country by 2014. There is enough space for every one – big players and small. And that space makes it most exciting for start-ups like Localever.

Paradise Park Farm
Monkeys, birds and views
What we say:
Paradise Park Farm on Ko Samui offers a relatively cool mountain retreat, where kids can enjoy petting a variety of animals while adults savour the spectacular views. The farm is located more than 600 metres above Lipa Noi atop Samui's Khao Pom; the drive up can be a little hairy, so make use of their pickup service from the main road if you have not hired a 4×4. Walkways and trails wind through 20 acres of tropical mountain forest, at considerably cooler temperatures than the rest of Samui due to the altitude.
The park's restaurant and infinity pool boast views over Samui's west coast and to the Five Islands; reasonably priced Thai and Western fare is available from the restaurant, and parrots that converse in both English and Thai will keep the kids busy – no need to bring the iPad along.
Kids can explore the enclosures that are home to your usual petting farm inhabitants — such as deer and rabbits — as well as a few bizarre ones, such as colourful doves. We thought they were painted by hand but after a little research, it appears that they are actually fed food colouring in egg yolk. Other interesting residents at the park include tiny hedgehogs – cute little bundles of prickles that you ironically want to cuddle but can't and Coco the monkey, who likes to brush guinea pigs.
Spacious aviaries are home to a variety of birds who keep up an endless rowdy chorus. Enter the budgie enclosure with a handful of provided greens and hope for the best as these cheeky birds swarm all over you to munch on their favourite snack. It can be quite a scary experience for a small child, so be warned!
For those wanting a true wildlife experience, Paradise Park is not the place. This is a petting zoo, not a reserve where animals roam free in their natural habitat. The animals however seem in good health, seem to be fed correct diets and enjoy large enclosures and paddocks. Some, such as the monkeys, are tied up on long ropes — not what one wants to see, but at least they are not subjected to performing demeaning tricks, and they seem quite content. Coco's rope is long enough for him to bail over a fence and steel an unsuspecting guinea pig when he feels like company. He loves to cuddle and brush them; quite bizarre to watch. The guinea pig squeals when grabbed, but then calmly sits while being groomed.
More details217/3 Moo 1, Talingngam, Ko Samui
Opening Hours: Daily 09:00-18:00
How to get there: From the ring road, take the turn off at Ban Saket and travel along a rather hairy road for several kilometres. Be careful that you don't take a wrong turn up top and end up in the military base.
Rosanne Turner relocated to Thailand in 2010 from South Africa. She enjoys sharing her discoveries of Samui after walking every beach, hill, coconut grove and forgotten path in search of that memory-making beach bar. You can follow her blog at Travelling Pen.

PORTLAND, Ore. -- The last passenger on the TriMet bus who got off at a stop just before the crash that killed two people last weekend has come forward.
Investigators on Thursday released a surveillance photo (see photo above) of the man and asked that he come forward so they could interview him as part of the investigation. Then, Friday morning, police toldKGW the man called them, after seeing himself on television.
The bus driver dropped the man off at the North curb line on NW Glisan Street before making the turn southbound onto NW Broadway. Ashort time later, the bus hit five pedestrians, killing two women.
Deadly crash investigation continues
The president of TriMet's employee union told KGW that a preliminary investigation found no evidence to suggest that the bus driver had been under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Sandy Day, 48, wasn't using her cell phone or text messaging behind the wheel, either, according to TriMet union president Johnathan Hunt.
Preliminary reports show that she was not on a phone, she wasn't texting, she was alcohol and drug free and in all counts had a perfect driving record, he said.
A camera mounted on the front of the bus involved in the deadly TriMet crash last weekend has been handed over to investigators.
Authorities have not said what, if any, video was on the camera. But it was expected to show a front view of the crash that killed two women and injured three other people.
TriMet previously announced that any video from the bus would be turned over to police investigators.
We've given them the video, Fetsch said. The driver is cooperating. We really want them to have all the information we can give them so they can round out their investigation. Officials cautioned that it could take days to find out what went wrong shortly before midnight Saturday at a lighted intersection in downtown Portland.
The TriMet bus ran over the group of pedestrians as they crossed a NWPortland street last Saturday night.
Police said the bus was turning left from NW Glisan Street onto NW Broadway Boulevard when it hit the people crossing Broadway, just before midnight Saturday. Officers arriving at the scene found three people trapped beneath the bus. Police said the walk signals were green when the pedestrians entered the street.

Two of the three died at the scene. On Sunday police identified the two victims as Jenee Hammel, a 26-year-old from Gresham (pictured at left), and 22-year-old Danielle Sale (pictured, below left) of Vancouver.
Robert Erik Gittings, a 22-year-old from Idaho also was pinned underneath the bus. On Sunday evening Gittings remained listed in critical condition at Legacy Emmanuel Hospital.
Two others to receive minor injuries included Ryan Hammel and his wife, Jamie of Portland. Hammel was the older brother of the deceased victim, Jenee, according to police.
Speed did not appear to be a factor in causing the accident, police said.
The bus driver, Sandi Day, 48, was hired by TriMet in 2007 and she has now been placed on paid administrative leave, per procedure. Day took a drug test after the deadly incident, which was also standard procedure, according to TriMet spokeswoman Mary Fetsch.
You couldn't help them, witness Steve Radie said. The only thing you could do was talk and try to comfort them.
Friends and family are grieving the deaths of two women killed by the bus. On Monday, the father of one of the women lashed out at TriMet drivers in an interview with KGW. These bus drivers just got to pay attention, said David Sale. Too many people are getting in accidents. MORE: Father distraught by daughter's death
More than a hundred family and friends gathered at a candlelight vigil Monday night.
It's unreal, said friend Rochelle Potter.
Driver was filling in
On Saturdays she [Day] typically works the extra board, which means she works various routes to fill in for openings due to vacations, sick employees, etc. She has driven this route before, Fetsch said.
Day was said to be cooperating with authorities and no arrests have been made.
Fetsch said Day was on the Line 9-Powell/Broadway route when the incident occurred and there were no passengers on the bus.
Since 1988, 30 people have died in incidents involving TriMet buses.

HOUSTON Following a sometimes heated meeting of the water committee of Houston s CityCouncil, some council members called on city officials to adopt stricter standards than what the federal EPA rules require as it pertains to informing Houstonians about radiation in their drinking water.
Thursday s meeting marked the first time the water committee convened since KHOU-TV exposed, in an ongoing investigation, radiation pervasive throughout nearly every groundwater well serving neighborhoods all over Houston. Public works director Daniel Krueger spent nearly the entire meeting addressing questions from council members about radiation in the city s water.
I m happy to see we ve begun decommissioning of wells... causing us trouble, Council Member Anne Clutterbuck said to Krueger, referring to three radioactive water wells that the city has said are no longer available for use.
Council Member Jolanda Jones used her first opportunity to address director Krueger during a recorded council meeting to push for a new city policy that would require neighborhoods be warned about high radiation readings in their water, even if the city does not legally have to issue the warnings.
Jones used the example of the Chasewood neighborhood to underscore the need for a new city policy. The neighborhood itself repeatedly tested above the federal legal limit of 15 pico curies (a unit of measurement for radiation) per liter for cancer-causing alpha radiation. However, Chasewood citizens were never warned that their neighborhood, in particular, had a problem.
Director Krueger said over all the years Chasewood wells tested high for radiation, residents were still getting water that met federal standards. Under further follow up questioning from Jones and Council Member C.O. Brad Bradford, Krueger admitted those standards allowed the city to average in all of its tests from various wells from other neighborhoods to allow it to stay within federal standards as an entire water system.
Consequently, Jones said no special notification or warning was required for Chasewood in the past. She wants that to change when future neighborhoods might also test high, with no requirements under current federal rules to notify citizens who might be at elevated risk for cancer due to the radiation.
If a well is high, people serviced by that well, should be notified, Jones said. Perhaps we should make our standards more stringent.
Jones called on water committee chair Mike Sullivan to hold another meeting with the intent to formally discuss ways the city could go beyond EPA requirements when it comes to notifying citizens about radiation, or other dangers, in their water. Sullivan agreed he would put the discussion on the agenda of the committee s next meeting.
Mayor Annise Parker, who has generally defended the city s public works department and echoed Krueger s statements that Houston meets federal water quality standards, had previously said that she would support Jones idea to, in some cases, go beyond what the EPA requires and come up with new ways to inform Houstonians about potential contaminants in their water.
Council member and former police chief Bradford took his first opportunity to question to Krueger in a recorded setting, to remind the head of the water department that Houston is one of the only major cities in Texas with radiation detected in its water.
Bradford reminded Krueger that Dallas, Beaumont, Austin, Fort Worth, Arlington and others have zero alpha radiation in their water, and he stated the city ought to adopt a policy striving to quickly join those cities.
Krueger told Bradford that San Antonio and El Paso are two big cities in Texas that do have measured alpha radiation in their water. However, a statement the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality gave KHOU in November said that federal and state rules define any amount of alpha radiation that is detected below 3 picocuries per liter, as being below the limits of detection.
Records obtained from Houston officials reveal San Antonio s measured amount of alpha radiation in 2009 fell below that level of detectable radiation, as defined in law.
Bradford also told Krueger he has real concern about Houston s own reports, which show radiation at nearly every groundwater well in the city.
Let me read from EPA's federal register, he said, before reading aloud the following quote from the EPA s federal rule on regulating radiation in drinking water:
It is assumed any exposure to radiation may be harmful and may increase the risk of cancer.
Council Member Brenda Stardig, of Spring Branch, stated if the federal rules need to be changed, people with questions or concerns about radiation in Houston s water should approach the federal government and stop taking up the city s time with questions. She also stated that she is concerned that neighborhoods with water wells with high radiation tests, like those in Spring Branch, would be unfairly branded.
Bradford responded, by saying he thinks the city is the entity that provides the water and is therefore ultimately responsible for taking action to protect the public, even if it is not required to. He said he will make sure the water committee focuses as much time and energy as necessary on informing the public about what he believes is a real threat to their health.
We're talking about the health and safety of families, he said.
Bradford proceeded to ask Krueger what he is doing to reduce the use of radioactive groundwater wells.
Bradford: My question is what are we doing to move toward a model to provide water to Houston residents as safe and free of radiation as other major cities are doing?
Krueger: The mitigation measure is to continue to expand our system ... so we can have a greater extent of surface water, in lieu of groundwater.
Krueger confirmed it could be decades before all of Houston s groundwater wells are taken offline.
Jones pointed to a recent draft of a federal report that is expected to be released soon by the United States Geological Survey as reason to be concerned.
The report, delivered to public works officials earlier this year, shows radiation at some individual wells test well beyond that federal legal limit. The tests were performed on untreated water before the city mixes it with radiation-free surface water.
While the city did shut down one radioactive well that the USGS tested in Springs Branch - and another radioactive well in Jersey Village -- it appears they allowed the wells that the USGS found had the highest amounts of radiation in Spring Branch and Jersey Village to remain available for use today.
Jones drove the point home in questioning Krueger.
Jones: Are there any in Jersey Village still commissioned?
Krueger: Jersey Village? Yes.
Jones: Are there any in Spring Branch still being commissioned?
Krueger: Yes.
Jones: When will they be turned off?
Krueger: I don't have ... I would have to review my decommissioning list. I'm not aware that any are intended to be decommissioned.
The city is aware of filtration technologies it could install at wells with high radioactivity if it wants to keep them online. To date, the city confirms it has not installed any radiation filters at any of its most radioactive wells.

Per SI's Sarah Kwak, Team USA's lines are the following:
James van Riemsdyk-Joe Pavelski-Phil Kessel
Zach Parise-David Backes-TJ Oshie
Dustin Brown-Ryan Kesler-Patrick Kane
Ryan Callahan-Paul Stastny-Max Pacioretty
That is a very deep two-way roster, but doesn't have the offensive punch of the Canadians. No, seriously, Matt Duchene and Martin St. Louis are the 13th and 14th forwards for Canada. That's absurd.
Derek Stepan is currently slated as the 13th forward, who will add offense if one of the top four centers get injured.
Defensive pairings:
Ryan McDonagh-John Carlson
Cam Fowler-Ryan Suter
Kevin Shattenkirk-Paul Martin

A great spot to just relax and enjoy the view. Our renters agree that the photographs don't do it justice. A large great room has floor to ceiling windows overlooking the bay, and has a stone fireplace so you can watch the sunset or sit by the fire. The kitchen is very well appointed and includes just about everything the chef desires except the food. There is a full laundry room with a washer and a dryer. No need to waste hours at the laundromat. The rec room includes a ping pong table, games, video tapes, and satellite TV as well as a cozy stone fireplace and a seating area to relax and enjoy the fire or the spectacular view of Frenchman Bay. The children's bedroom is furnished with a full/twin bunk bed, a toddler bed, and a Pack n Play. In addition there are two beautifully furnished bedrooms with queen-size beds. There is a queen size sofa bed in the great room, and two comfortable inflatable beds which each sleep two adults.
The home is located about 35 minutes from Bar Harbor, the hub of activities on Mount Desert Island and gateway to Acadia National Park. Bar Harbor offers dozens of restaurants and shops and also kayak and bike rentals.
Hikers who prefer less crowded trails will find that nearby Black Mountain and Schoodic Mountain offer gorgeous panoramic vistas of lakes, ponds, Frenchman Bay, and the Porcupine Islands without the large numbers of hikers found on the better known trails of Acadia.
Winter Harbor, just 5 minutes away, offers galleries, shops and dining, all located in a quaint lobstering village with a picturesque town harbor and dock. A passenger ferry runs numerous trips daily from Winter Harbor to Bar Harbor. Lobster pounds abound, and two are located within a couple of miles of the house. Swim and fish at nearby Jones Pond or Donnell Pond at the foot of Schoodic Mountain. Kayaks can be rented in nearby Birch Harbor and kayak tours can also be arranged.
The entrance to the Schoodic Section of Acadia National Park is a few minutes from the house by car or bike, and is a beautiful 'secret' spot which is visited by only a few of the thousands of visitors to Acadia.
I want to tell you how much we enjoyed our short week in your Maine home. The location was stunning, both in the sun and rain. As most attractions in the area were closed we took advantage of that great stone fireplace and the comfy couch to lounge in. I haven't enjoyed doing nothing so much for a long time. I even got a couple of good books read. The people of Winter Harbor were great and very welcoming.
We look forward to renting from you again. I haven't found a more relaxing place anywhere. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.
My husband and I wanted to get away from the corporate world for a week, someplace serene, beautiful, but with the amenities of home. We found it and more in this cabin! We arrived late at night due to a snow storm, but found the cabin easily. The road and driveway were plowed and the cabin was pleasantly warm.
The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all our meals, and the open great room was really nice, as it allowed us to chat when one of us was cooking. The bedroom on the main floor has its own bathroom, as well as a TV/cable, which was a nice surprise. But our biggest surprise was the view.
The view is stunning, even in the middle of winter. It was such a nice surprise to wake up to! (And the view is even better from the lower floor.) Although I ended up having to work half the time we were there, being able to pause and watch the waves helped to keep my stress level down.
I can't say enough nice things about this cabin. Dealing with Rich was super easy, as was the rental processes. The cabin was clean, warm, beautiful, and had amazing views. My husband and I very much enjoyed our stay here, and will look to come back in the future!
We absolutely LOVED our time at this incredibly beautiful and spacious log cabin on the Schoodic Peninsala of Maine! The cabin is superb - very well done, tastefully decorated! The views are unbelievably breathtaking of the ocean, harbor, and islands! We were in awe! Richard was so helpful when we had questions and was wonderful to work with!
While we loved being out and away from everything to truly 'get away', our only regret was that it was SO far away from everything!! I think late October means that most local places are closed down; and the travel distance to Bar Harbor was a bit further than we had anticipated.(50 minutes or so) But if you want to just relax and enjoy the cabin and the views, the amazing fireplace, and quiet, this place is amazing! if we were to come again, we'd come in summer or September, while the ferry still runs across to Bar Harbor!
thank you, Richard, for sharing your beautiful cabin with us!
Last day here after 2 weeks- leaving tomorrow. Everything is just like the website claims. No issues of any kind. Had no need of fireplace or air conditioners as the weather was just perfect. Place can sleep a larger group but was very enjoyable for just the two of us. Location is a great place to jump off any direction for exploring downeast Maine. No hassle of crowds like Bar Harbor and not too far if one wishes to see the attractions of Bar Harbor. (We only spent a few hours there and had lunch at Gaylyns near the port)
Blueberry festival in Machias was most entertaining. Not to miss is Campobello, where Franklin Roosevelt spent part of his boyhood and early years of marriage. about 1and 1/2 hours away. Bring passport as it is in New Brunswick
Of course Acadia is wonderful. Lots to do there. Be sure to visit Jordans Pond and enjoy the popovers-fantastic! Also the Schoodic part of Acadia is a great place to visit.
Best meal we had was at Trenton Bridges Lobster pound although we never really had an unpleasant meal experience. We liked Winter Harbor and visited nearly all the shops.
We recommend this place highly.
My husband, 2 children, ages 15 and 13, and myself spent a wonderful week in this gorgeous home. The house is in a very peaceful setting overlooking Frenchman Bay. It could not have been more perfect. The house is even more lovely than the pictures depict. The decorating touches add so much to the overall feel of the home. The house was well stocked and we wanted for nothing. The owner, Rich, was always very helpful and a pleasure to work with. We often saw eagles and harbor porpoises from the shoreline. We did our first sea kayaking trip, which was fun. We spent 3 full days in Acadia on Mt. Desert Island. Did some great hikes, our favorites being the Beehive and Precipice Trails. We swam (briefly) at Sand Beach; the water is only 55 degrees! But after a long hike, it felt great. We had popovers at Jordon Pond House which is a must do! We tried to watch the sunset from Cadillac Mountain, but it was too cloudy that day. We did have a very nice sunset our first night at the house. We also spent time at the part of Acadia at Schoodic peninsula. Did a nice hike there and also watched the waves crash along the rocks. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this little slice of heaven.
We are a 3 generation family of 7, ranging in age from 25-90 years old. The house on Island View was perfect for all of us. We used the 2 fireplaces every night, and the kitchen meets the standards of foodies like us. we put our kayaks in right on the property ocean front. the one time there was a problem with the house, Greg was there immediately to take care of it. Rich directed us to Gouldsboro Enterprise up the road for lobster. We bought them right as they were unloaded from the boat for $3.25/lb! There is no reason to ever go to Bar Harbor-the Schoodic Peninsula, has everything except crowds and traffic. This is a perfect venue -everyone was happy! we will be back.

The beauty and comfort of this lovely spruce log home matches it's magnificent surroundings. The thoughtful love and pride with which each detail of this beautiful home was created is apparent the moment you enter the graceful curve of the drive. When you catch a first glimpse of this serene retreat enfolded by stately spruce, overlooking a breathtaking and ever changing view of ocean, you will know that you have found the ultimate peaceful retreat for your family's vacation time together. Each room is a visual treat of beautiful, comfortable furnishings and eclectic, whimsical art and crafts, thoughtfully chosen by the owners who are sharing their home with you. Pictures can not adequately convey what you will feel once you are here. If you manage to pry yourself away from this spot there are rich cultural resources in the surrounding seaside communities diverse enough to entertain your entire family. We attended a recital performed by an internationally know pianist, and a concert by a nationally known folk recording artist within ten minutes of the home. You will want to return again and again. Bob and Barbara
Located in Summer Harbor, just off the Schoodic National Scenic Byway on the Beautiful Schoodic Peninsula. A quiet, peaceful getaway offering breathtaking views of Frenchman Bay and five islands, just minutes from Bar Harbor by car or ferry. You can drive, bike, or hike the few miles to the Schoodic Section of Acadia National Park. The Schoodic Loop Road offers spectacular views of Winter Harbor, The Bay, And the rugged, rocky coast of the North Atlantic.

College can sound very exciting with moving away from home and being on your own but who you live with can make or break your college experience.
Most colleges require freshmen to live in campus housing with roommates. Roommates can be chosen at random, via special requests or at college orientation. (Some schools, like Campbell, even have "Class of" or "Admitted Students" pages on Facebook and students can find their future roommates there.) I had a roommate selected at random and she moved out halfway through the semester but I knew this was a common situation: Sometimes students move out to room with a better friend or they change dorms because the new residence hall is closer to their classes and extracurricular activities.
How do you know if you have found the right roommate? Talk to them! Discuss what you both expect to do at college, your respective bedtimes and what you'll bring into the dorm. If you think the match is a good one, sign a roommate contract but if you don't think your living situation is going to work, try to make a room change sooner than later. Maybe you met someone in class or on your floor who is also having roommate issues, which makes a potential swap even easier.
If I could choose the best way to find a roommate, I would go the random route again and connect with them prior to move-in day. Most people I know on campus were paired with their roommates randomly and now consider each other good friends...but that may not be the case for everyone: It all depends on what type of person you are and if you can handle living with someone else. There is a perfect roommate for everyone!
So how did you find your roommate? Did it work out, were there issues or would you have change the way you were paired?

So prom is over and graduation is almost here. All that's left to do in your high school career is to take your exams and walk across the stage to receive your diploma but there's still one more obstacle you must clear before you can officially call yourself a college student: Orientation. Here's a few things your experience will likely include:
I hope orientation works out for you and you have a great summer – you'll be a college freshman for real before you know it! If you have any additional orientation tips, let us know in the comments!

You have probably fantasized about your college experience being just like the movies...WRONG! If you watched movies or shows like "Glee," "10 Things I Hate About You" and "17 Again" and thought "That is nothing like high school," the same goes for college when it's portrayed on screen: I remember watching "Pitch Perfect" after my first month of college and thought, "College is NOT like that!" Here are some examples from TV and the movies that showcase what supposedly happens in college but doesn't.
Do not take college advice from the movies and TV shows you watch except for the fact that it will be an experience you will never forget. For a more accurate picture of what to expect in college, just ask your friends who are already attending college about what campus life is really like!

As a returning college student myself, I've been thinking a lot about what tips every one of us should heed as we head into a new academic year. I've learned so much as an undergrad and grown in ways I never thought I could, but I've also come to realize that I am learning more every day. With that said, here are my thoughts on what returning students need for the upcoming year:
As you enter this next school year, remember to make every moment count. Work hard and play hard, learn to better control your spending or pick up that book you've been meaning to read. Study long nights but reward yourself with time with friends. Balancing your life benefits you in so many ways and will make your year a great (and manageable) one!

If you're a college student, the following scenario is bound to present itself: You have to work or have a test early in the morning but your neighbors have decided to party until 3 or 4 a.m. You're not a party pooper (you just don't want to be a zombie the next day!) so you should know there is absolutely nothing wrong with standing up for yourself – and your health – to better perform at work or summer academics.
Don't jump out of bed and bang on your neighbor's door at the first sound of noise. Wait and see if the activity continues either the next night or next week. If it does, say something to your neighbor to let them know you're below/above/next door to them. They might not realize how loud they are and how thin the walls are.
If the party noise continues for multiple nights, try to gauge why before confronting your neighbors. If they're clearly intoxicated, just tell them to keep it down because you're trying to sleep. (It's no use having a serious conversation with anyone in their condition; sometimes, they realize it's late anyway and just needed a reminder.) If you happen to talk to someone sober, explain to them that the noise has gone on for a few nights now and it is interfering with your work or school schedule. Suggest a compromise like quieting down after midnight.
If your neighbors ignore you and you still can't sleep, bang on the ceiling, floor or wall with a broomstick or threaten to call the cops. I've done this twice and both times, my neighbors have quieted down...fast. Unless the party is WAY out of control, someone sounds hurt or something illegal is going on, don't actually get the police involved – saying you will gets the message across that you're serious about taking action. Sometimes drastic measures have to be taken but they're effective: I haven't had problems since and neither will you.

Back-to-school season is in the air and whether you're a transfer student or incoming freshman looking forward to entering a new environment, you don't want to be without these must-have items for the school year:
All of these items got me through my first year of college...and I didn't know about the folders until second semester! I hope they will aid you in the best way possible as you tackle your first year at a new school.

The start of a new year marks the time to seek an apartment for the fall semester. I know that's the case at my school: Once the calendar turns to January in Houghton, Mich., students start climbing all over housing advertisements and residences are gone in no time. It really is a race here because in this rural town, affordable quality housing is limited. No matter where you attend college, there are some key things you should keep an eye out for when you tour a place you could potentially call home.
Noise. Ask about street noise or neighbor noise then take a listen for yourself to determine whether it's too loud or too quiet for you. I lived on a main street once and when I moved to a quieter one, I could not sleep for a week because of the silence!
Mold or water damage. If there is a basement, look/smell for mold and search for wet spots or signs of flooding. Mold can bother allergies or make you sick and flooding could ruin your belongings; basements are prime locations for both to occur.
Pests. Keep your eyes peeled for chewed corners or holes in ceilings or walls. As I noted in a previous post, pests such as mice and squirrels can poop all over the place, eat your food, damage your apartment's structure and scare the daylights out of you. Do not move into a place with these warning signs unless the landlord promises to make repairs before you move in.
Maintenance. Make sure your landlord has a maintenance man or has offered you a phone number to reach him or her in case they handle the repairs. Trust me, no hot water plus hair covered in conditioner at 11 p.m. equals a not-so-fun extracurricular activity.
Be wary of everything from cleanliness to the neighborhood (nearby bars and hot spots mean there WILL be drunken singing at 2 a.m.). The race is on – good luck!

I have been attending college for about four years now and have never taken a semester off. The thought used to make me shudder – how could someone even think of taking time off from school?! – but after this semester, it doesn't sound like such a bad idea.
Some of my friends took semesters off to travel and learn more about themselves, while others were lost and not sure what they wanted to do in life. Some have experienced the loss of a family member or friend and others fell so ill that it interfered with their everyday lives. But me? My situation has been a combination of flying squirrels, bad landlords, health issues and money problems. Stress from school has skyrocketed to its worst level ever and I am planning to take the summer off, since I cannot afford to withdraw from spring classes if I want to stay on track. (I did consider attending part-time but found it could create problems with financial aid.)
If you're considering taking a semester off, do NOT just drop off the face of the Earth. Let your adviser know your plans and keep the lines of communication open so that the process of coming back to school is easier when you are ready to do so. You may be taking time off from school to destress but I'd also recommend doing something related to your major – picking up an internship/job, volunteering or studying for LSAT, MCAT, GMAT or GRE – to stay somewhat involved in your field.
Lots of college students take time off for one reason or another; if external factors are competing with school to the point where your grades are suffering, take a break – you'll return to school more motivated to succeed.

Whether the rent is too high, the landlord is negligent or there is an army of flying squirrels gnawing away at your apartment, your housing situation may need to change. This usually happens at a most inopportune time, like in the middle of the semester; it's is a stressful, horrible and distracting experience but if your current place is bad enough (remember my last post?), the move will benefit you in the end.
Packing is a nightmare – not only is your place going to look like a tornado ripped through but if you do not keep your school stuff together, it will get lost in the mess – but you can maintain some sense of order. Keep a designated space for school work, books and any other college necessities or put everything in a labeled box so you will know exactly where to search when you need something for school.
As with your school supplies, separate your items into well-marked boxes to make unpacking easier and then begin transporting the boxes. Try to schedule moving day for a weekend or day you do not have class or work; unfortunately, I only had one day and had to skip all of my classes to get the job done but I did let my professors know ahead of time. When you arrive at your new place, make sure everything appears as promised in your lease before you start unpacking.
Moving in the middle of the semester is awful, I know. Things will get crazy, messy and even unmanageable but the best thing you can do is to stay organized. The hustle and bustle of a move has been known throw wrenches in otherwise perfectly timed schedules so use a planner or cell phone calendar to remember important dates and appointments while you are relocating. Good luck and enjoy your new abode!

I have tons of horror stories about roommates and housing but the one connective thread is an unprofessional landlord. While I can't tell you why this problem is so prominent in many college towns, I can guide you on how to deal with it.
First, know your rights. Look up your state's tenant laws and make note of them. In Michigan, a tenant has the right to withhold all or part of rent depending on the problem until the apartment is fixed. We're not talking broken lights or chipped paint, though – think more along the lines of pests, unusable plumbing and no electricity.
Next, reread your lease. Whenever you sign a lease, make sure to 1. read it thoroughly and 1. get a copy. (My landlord didn't even give me a copy of my lease and I had to email him several times to get it.) If the lease does not say anything about apartment fixes (it should), do not sign it until it's amended. If the landlord complains, cite the tenant laws to support your case.
Lastly, be confident and remain firm in all dealings with your landlord, especially if the issue is detrimental to your health or living. For example, my neighbor has had bad plumbing since July but even after multiple complaints, the landlord hadn't remedied the issue by October. She knew her rights, though, and together we sent the landlord an email stating she was moving out and he would be responsible for finding a replacement tenant...but not until the apartment was fixed. We also said if immediate action was not taken, we would call a health inspector (also due to persistent flying squirrel incidents in several apartments). Needless to say, the landlord agreed in a panic and we were able to avoid going to court over the matter – a mess we definitely didn't need during midterm time.
If you follow these tips, even the worst landlord ever can be dealt with. Good luck, renters!

CORRECTED: Groundhog's ruling: six more weeks of winter
(Please read in sixth paragraph …Johnston said… instead
of …Johnson said…)
A corrected version follows:
PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pennsylvania (Reuters) – Punxsutawney Phil,
the groundhog who fans claim is never wrong, predicted six more
weeks of winter on Thursday, matching the forecast of
professional meteorologists.
"Phil is incapable of error. If he says six more weeks of
winter, you can take it to the bank," said Mike Johnston, one
of the 15 members of the Groundhog Club Inner Circle in
Punxsutawney, site of the annual Groundhog Day ceremony.
According to legend, when the rodent emerges from
hibernation on February 2 and sees his shadow, it means six
more weeks of winter. If he does not see his shadow, spring is
Punxsutawney has celebrated Groundhog Day since 1887, as
depicted in 1993 movie "Groundhog Day" starring Bill Murray.
Punxsutawney Phil's staged emergence came before a crowd of
estimated between 12,000 to 15,000 spectators in the
east-central Pennsylvania town.
The club's claim of 100 percent accuracy for the groundhog
comes with a loophole. "He's not saying there will be six more
weeks of winter in Chicago or Philadelphia or Cleveland, but
there will be somewhere," Johnston said.
Private forecaster MDA EarthSat Energy Weather on Wednesday
updated its 30- to 60-day forecast and called for a cold
February in the Eastern part of the United States, starting
next week. Weather in January was unseasonably mild.
Forecasts of a colder-than-normal winter have supported
strong heating oil prices as the Northeast, where 80 percent of
the nation's fuel is consumed.
There are 19 known rivals to Punxsutawney Phil. New York's
Staten Island Chuck differed with Phil by calling for an end to
Johnston's response? "It's a touchy subject. We want to be
civil. Let's just say imitation is the sincerest form of

Important Notice: We purchased and installed this classified ads software because we thought it would be a genuine enhancement to the GT classified ads system. I still believe it is a far better
alternative for a classified ads
section than the forum software, but people just don't seem to agree. I had hoped that people would take to the system and see its benefits after having used it for a while, but that hasn't happened.So, I am going to admit defeat and move the classified ads
section back onto the old message board forums. Posting permissions have been turned off in this software and the old classified ads forums have been reactivated. We will leave this software up through 27 June, 2014, so that people can refer to the old ads. Please
place all new ads in the classified ads forums. They can be found on GT's forums index, below the Armory section. Here is a direct link to that area: The Want Ads

keep in mind that all forum rules apply to the classified ads threads. Additionally, do not post in someone's ad to haggle or arrange a deal. Please contact them directly to negotiate. Also, if you think you know where someone can get the advertised item cheaper, or
you think the person is charging too much, or you don't like the product or seller, etc..., please keep it to yourself. Posting such things in someone else's classified ad thread is not allowed. If you see anyone violating the posting rules, or know of or suspect

On Monday and Wednesday, Community member ktopp24 will be the judge. On Tuesday and Thursday, I'll run the show. If one of the judges decide that your caption is the funniest or most clever submitted for that picture, it will be declared a winner.
Winning captions will be announced when that day's challenge ends. There will be one winner for each picture, and also one winner for the person who can string together the 5 best captions all with the same theme.
You will be awarded one point for each winning caption that you post. You will see a running tally on the scoreboard, which will be posted at the beginning and end of each day. At the end of each month a champion is declared, and we shower that user in praise and adulation! We add his screenname to the Wall-O-Fame, and then we start everyone's score back at zero.

5) Packers fans take taunting the opposition to a new level with their new line of Cheese Cowboy hats, Cheese eyepatches, Cheese Viking Helmets, and for when they play the Bears, Cheese benches.

Getting back into the swing of things, earlier today the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service determined that the eastern small-footed bat (Myotis leibii) does not warrant listing at this time, and commented on its proposal to list the northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis) (pdf) as endangered under the Endangered Species Act. The notice issued by the Service states that the "primary threat to the northern long-eared bat is a disease, white-nose syndrome, which has killed an estimated 5.5 million cave-hibernating bats in the Northeast, Southeast, Midwest and Canada." According to the notice, comments on the proposed listing must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on December 2, 2013. As for the eastern small-footed bat, the Service concluded that although the "bat also hibernates in caves and mines, it has not shown the drastic decline at winter hibernacula compared with that experienced by the northern long-eared bat."

text: The Winnipeg Jets are in first place. This phrase hasn't been uttered in over a year in Manitoba's capital. Prior to their 5-4 shootout victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs, Winnipeg had not led the Southeast Division since February 23, 2012. A 4-3 win over the Tampa Lightning that evening put the Jets atop the Southeast Division for the first time since the franchise's relocation from Atlanta.
