Platinum Blonde drummer Chris Steffler said his love of music started at the Dard.
The Wasaga Beach native said he got his first glimpse of the rock scene at the Dardanella but didn't really set out to become a rock star, he was just looking for a way out of Collingwood's shipyards.
Steffler would go on to become a founding member of the Canadian new wave rock band Platinum Blonde. The band will be inducted into the Canadian Music and Broadcast Industry Hall of Fame on March 12 at the Canadian Radio Music Awards in Toronto, as part of Canadian Music Week.
Steffler, 52, started playing drums in 1972.
Shortly after that he was getting into the Dard underage to see bands.
"I think I learned a lot from that - most of all just watching the reaction of people and I really appreciated that," said Steffler. "It gave me a good feeling to see how people reacted to music as a kid. At that time there was no MuchMusic and radio was really lame so to go see something like that was really cool. I think the Dardanella had a lot to do with it."
As a teen, Steffler had a band called Sledge and played at the Dard, at bars in Collingwood and did a gig at a Stayner Collegiate Institute dance.
Steffler's parents Ron and Anita owned Jell-E-Bean Park in the 1970s and 1980s, which he said was the called Jellystone Park at the time.
While attending Collingwood Collegiate Institute, Steffler said he had many jobs, including flipping burgers at Jay's Drive In on the main strip.
"After working in the shipyard, I just thought, there's an easier way to make a living and I went to Toronto," said Steffler.
It was 1979 and he began playing in various bands.
"It was just so cool to move to Toronto but really I was a homeless teenager. It was just trial-and-error with different bands and really I just got lucky to play with this band that was doing The Police covers and that was Platinum Blonde."
Steffler said he met fellow Platinum Blonde member and vocalist Mark Holmes at The Domino Club. Guitarist Sergio Galli would complete the trio.
They played full-time for a year-and-a-half and then got a record deal with CBS Records.
In 1983 the band opened for Bryan Adams and in 1984 they opened the Canadian leg of Billy Idol's Rebel Yell tour.
He said they were playing in arenas and recalls performing at Nathan Phillips Square to an audience 30,000 people.
They toured in the United States including shows at The Ritz Music Hall in New York City with Dead or Alive in 1984, a Spin Magazine party at The Filmore East in 1985 and The Limelight in 1986.
"Instead of making $200 a week we were making $1,200 each a show... all of a sudden we had money which we never had before. It was pretty good," said Steffler.
"You just try to conduct yourself in a professional manner and try not to have too much of an ego. Because anything that you do in the slightest way will be negative later so you just tried to be naturally nice and it was all found glory for me because I wasn't even planning on being a rock star. I just kind of fell into it."
The dawn of the video age and the newly launched MuchMusic helped propel the band's 80's glam image.
"Luckily it took off. Luckily there was videos and we just caught the crust of that," said Steffler.
He said the band spent $40,000 making their first video for It Doesn't Really Matter, the same amount it cost them to make their first album Standing In The Dark, released in 1984.
Platinum Blonde's second album, Alien Shores, was released in 1985 and included Situation Critical and Crying Over You. Steffler had by then recruited bassist and keyboardist Kenny MacLean into the band.
Crying Over You hit the top of the charts and the video won a Gemini Award for best music video. The album went five times platinum.
Steffler left the band in 1987.
"It just blew up. We weren't signed directly to the record company, which was very untraditional. We signed to a management and then the management signed to the record company. Everything just collapsed at one time. Everyone was fighting over the usual - money."
Steffler said he was having ligament and tendon issues in his right ankle caused by the repetition of playing the electronic drums.
Steffler went into real estate development and later opened a restaurant and nightclub on Queen Street West in Toronto called Twiggy.
The rest of the band called it quits in 1989 but released a best-of album in 1999, which topped HMV's sales charts. MacLean died in November 2008 after the release of his third solo album.
Steffler said the original three members of Platinum Blonde are trying to organize a reunion concert in Toronto in the coming months.

S. Korean firm eyes $1B power projects in Philippines
Korea Water Resources Corp., the leading water resources and power company in South Korea, is looking to invest as much as $1 billion in equity for various water and power projects in the Philippines over the next three years.
Specifically, K-Water is considering the installation of floating solar power systems at the Angat Dam and the construction of the Kapangan hydropower project in Benguet, said K-Water representative in the Philippines, Jiheun (Peter) Yun.
According to Yun, the company is willing to invest as much as $60 million to install the "floating solar power system" in any of the dams in Luzon.
Once installed, it will be the first of its kind anywhere in the Philippines, the company claimed.
K-Water has already begun talks with potential partners including the Ayala group and conglomerate San Miguel Corp.
K-Water explained in a separate statement that the floating solar power system involved the setting up of solar panels in a reservoir, which would allow it to generate higher power output and, at the same time, create an ideal environment for fish spawning since it constrains green algae.
Yun told reporters that the company would initially install a system that could generate 10 megawatts.
K-Water is still considering whether the system will be installed at the Angat Dam or in other dams, such as the San Roque (Pangasinan) facility, Casecnan (Nueva Vizcaya) or the Caliraya-Botocan-Kalayaan (CBK).
According to Yun, K-Water is set to conduct a feasibility study by early next year. This study is expected to be completed within six months. The actual construction of the power plant will take another six months.
"This is the first time (in the country) that the floating solar power system will be constructed within a water reservoir. In Europe and the US, similar projects … are being installed in oceans and/or rivers," Yun said.
It was only last year that K-Water started installing the system in a water reservoir. That same technology has been in use in Europe and the United States for the past decade.
Yun, meanwhile, assured the public that a power facility in water reservoirs would not pose hazards to the environment or to surrounding host communities, citing the company's experience in South Korea.
He stressed that the facility would not contaminate the water reservoir, such as the Angat Dam, which currently provides 97 percent of the water requirements of Metro Manila.
Since the initial project will have a 10-MW capacity, the company plans to sell the electricity to other private firms, Yun said.
As for its planned hydroelectric power project in Kapangan, Benguet, K-Water earlier announced that it would invest $200 million for a 65-MW facility.

The mundane activity of attending an environmental education class and then write an exam on it is not the way to go.
Bangalore's Mount Carmel College believes in a more practical approach of teaching its students to go green.
Mount Carmel College's (MCC) Solid Waste Management Team comprising the Science Association, NSS and CEE work towards making a greener campus. "We believed in segregation of waste and recycling as the positive steps towards reducing burden on landfills," says Sheela Dhange, co-ordinator, CEE department of MCC.
From banning sale of plastic bottles in the canteen, to introducing solar panels for the hostel, MCC also offers credit courses such as Civic Awareness and Social Responsibility to its students. These courses allow students to participate in many campaigns such as the 'Turn Green' which was done in collaboration with Dr Meenakshi Bharath. It encouraged the use of paper bags and used the left over scraps of cloth from the tailors in making cloth bags and cushions.
Another important step taken in making the campus greener was by placing waste paper bins which are divided into plastic, paper, food, tetra packs and pen refills. Thereby segregating waste in the initial stage. However, many impasses have occurred, "It takes a lot to convince the attendants in college to participate in such an initiative and also the students might prove non-cooperative," says Dhange.
The segregated garbage is then handed over to the ITC recycling centre, where the waste is not just burnt in a landfill but used constructively such as in the recycling of paper and the smaller scrapes of plastic are used in road building.
According to Murugeshan, Senior Manager at ITC, "even today over five million tonnes of paper waste is imported by India and this heavy dependency is due to poor waste segregation".
ITC has tied up with 22 schools such as Bishop Cotton's, St Xavier's and colleges like Jyoti Nivas, Jain and Garden City College across the city for their campaign, Wealth Out of Waste.
Other colleges in the city are also doing their bit for a greener planet. Christ University, for example, started its own Zero Waste Programme and also segregates its waste into wet and dry. "We also have a paper recycling unit on campus and we get all are results online rather than a marks card, in order to conserve paper," says Prachi M (name changed).
Although one may cry foul over Bangalore being called the 'garden city' with its lush greenery being devoured by development. The city's colleges however, are in the mode of instilling awareness among students through a more practical approach, thereby, giving an opportunity to the youngsters to do their bit for the environment. Remember to Reduce, Re-use, Refuse and Recycle.

Russ Lemmon: Ocean Park's restaurant promises to be 'breath of fresh air'
Follow Russ Lemmon on Facebook at www.facebook.com/lemmondrops
Enter Scott Varricchio's home, and your eyes are drawn to the books.
They're everywhere. The ones not in bookcases are neatly stacked on the floor.
In a tall stack with "Arnold Palmer: Memories, Stories and Memorabilia" are "Michael Chiarello's Casual Cooking" and "Father-To-Be Book."
Varricchio is an avid golfer, but his focus these days is on the latter two subjects, cooking and fatherhood.
His wife, Allison, is pregnant with a due date of Aug. 24.
Their new restaurant, the Citrus Grillhouse, is scheduled to open in late November or early December.
The Citrus Grillhouse will be the restaurant anchor at Ocean Park of Vero Beach, the $30 million development adjacent to Humiston Park.
Contrary to popular belief, it's not going to be a fine-dining establishment.
Varricchio plans to make it a "community-based restaurant," a place where people will want to eat every week or every other week. He wants to have prices "where anybody can enjoy it."
He moved to Vero Beach about two years ago after serving as sous chef simultaneously at Ouest and Cesca, two fine-dining establishments in Manhattan. He also worked at Picasso, a restaurant inside the Bellagio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
"It's not going to work down here," Varricchio said when asked why he decided against going the fine-dining route.
He came to that determination after an in-depth study of the market — one in which he did his own research.
"I've eaten at every restaurant in town a couple of times — looked at their menus, looked at their parking lots — just trying to find out what will work down here," he said.
A group of investors purchased the 4,700-square-foot restaurant space for $1.5 million from Flamevine Properties I, the developer of Ocean Park.
Steve Mulvey, Flamevine's managing partner in charge of construction, says the Citrus Grillhouse will be "a breath of fresh air" on the local restaurant scene. It will have about 160 seats, with both inside and outside dining available.
"We wanted a year-round restaurant (in that space)," Mulvey said. "We didn't want something that was totally upscale."
Varricchio anticipates having entrees in the $15-to-$20 range. He says if entrees were priced from $30 to $40, people would come only on special occasions, such as anniversaries or birthdays, and not bring their families.
The Citrus Grillhouse will be on the site of a former Vero Beach landmark, Crusty's restaurant. Crusty's is fondly remembered as a oceanfront restaurant that was affordable.
Varricchio is intent on the restaurant having wide appeal.
"The food ... will be approachable," he said. "No fancy presentations, no fancy items people have not heard of before."
Included at no additional charge will be a million-dollar view of the ocean.

More News from Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The woman who was sexually assaulted by director Roman Polanski when she was 13 has written a memoir that will feature a cover photo shot by Polanski three weeks before he drugged her and had sex with her.
Samantha Geimer's publisher says that during her 1993 lawsuit against Polanski, Geimer obtained rights to the pictures Polanski took during two photo sessions in 1977, one of which led to charges that he plied her with half a Quaalude and champagne and raped her.
Polanski, a French citizen, pleaded guilty to unlawful sexual intercourse and was ordered to pay her $500,000 and to turn over the photos.
Geimer has said she is writing the book to reclaim her identity.
Atria Books, an imprint of Simon and Schuster, said it will be releasing Geimer's book — "The Girl: Emerging from the Shadow of Roman Polanski" — this fall.
According to Atria, Geimer will provide "insight into many dimensions of the story that have never previously been revealed."
Filmmaker Marina Zenovich interviewed Geimer for her documentary "Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired" and for a soon-to-be-released second film, "Roman Polanski: Odd Man Out." She said she was not surprised by the announcement of the upcoming book.
"She always said she wanted to take her power back, and this is her way to do it," Zenovich said. "For a lot of years she was silent, and she's not a silent person. She has a very strong personality.
"Once she found her power, it kind of freed her."
Although Geimer has declined interview requests in advance of publication, she issued a statement last year when the book project was announced.
"I am more than 'Sex Victim Girl,' a tag the media pinned on me," Geimer, who long ago identified herself as Polanski's victim, said in the statement released through Atria.
She said years ago that she forgives Polanski.
The case has haunted both Geimer and Polanski, with the 79-year-old director living as a fugitive from justice to avoid a long prison sentence. He lives in France, where he is immune from extradition.
Polanski's lawyers fought a futile battle in 2010 to prove there was misconduct in the handling of the case and argued charges should be dismissed. Geimer supported the request, saying, "Enough is enough," and that Polanski was not a danger to anyone.
But prosecutors refused to dismiss charges, and Polanski chose not to return to the United States to risk prison.
Polanski, whose films include "Chinatown" and "Rosemary's Baby," is restricted by an Interpol warrant in effect in 188 countries, but he moves freely between Switzerland and France. He was freed from Swiss house arrest in 2010 after the government refused to deport him to the United States. He had been arrested when he tried to attend a film festival in Switzerland. A lengthy court case ensued in Europe and the U.S.
Polanski's agent and his prosecutor did not return phone calls for comment.
Geimer's lawyer, Lawrence Silver, says in the book that he pursued both the photos and negatives from Polanski's photo sessions with Geimer, which took place at the home of actor Jack Nicholson while Nicholson was away.
"These photographs, important both legally and historically, would likely have never been discovered if not for the civil suit," Silver said.

To recall the history is for a better development in the future. After the completion of the genomic sequencing
and the HapMap project, the international HGP has entered an assault-fortified position aiming at studying
the genetic mechanisms of human diseases and other phenotypes. The initiation of HGP is due to the lesson
learnt from the failure of the cancer project in the Kennedy era of the 1960s, while the success of HGP also depends
on its influence upon tackling cancer and other complex human diseases. Meanwhile, facilitated by the
strategic plan of big sciences, the innovation of science and technology and their industrialization, as well as
the fast progress in interdisciplinary studies such as bioinformatics, have prepared the ground for a new "great
frogleap". Some of the minireviews published in this issue analyze the future trend of genomics research and its
scientific impact based on the technical perspectives of genomic sequencing, genotyping and functional genomics.
While the others present the significant change of research strategy and technology brought in by the
HGP with respect to liver cancer (hepatocarcinoma), immunology, and medical, environmental and industrial
microbiology. These reviews reflect the progress we have achieved, showing that, compared with the situation
ten years ago, our research capability, technology experience, and academic intelligence have all been significantly
improved. Meanwhile, we are confronted with more difficult challenges than ten years ago. If we can
learn from the past experience, focus on a correct direction, move forward bravely but with caution, carefully
organize and integrate the research teams, improve the management w

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)

It doesn't hurt that the first third is set in a sweetheart re-envisioning of the Central Park Zoo, where complacent beasts repose (superstar lion Ben Stiller, hypochondriac giraffe David Schwimmer, sassy hippo Jada Pinkett-Smith). Discontented zebra Chris Rock longs for "the wild," however, and his daydreams are ignited by a quartet of P.O.W. penguins who are tunneling their way to freedom. The stars are vocally dull or, in the case of Rock, grating and unvaried, but the New Yawkismsincluding a police horse with a Canarsie grunt and the inevitable sight of a runaway zebra going virtually unnoticed on Lexington Avenueare hard to resist. Too soon, the animals are apprehended in Grand Central Terminal and shipped overseas, where they crash-land on a tropical beach and confront the tension between their indulged home life and their natural selves.
"Confront" may be a weighty word to use; Madagascar turns in its last act toward addressing the return of instinct and the odd predator-prey friendships that populate the film, but it's hardly dramatic. At least the characters have an angular, freehand design to them, not the lumpy faux-waxworks style that dominated the Shreks. The film's best idea is an island nation of hopping, hip-swiveling, billiard-ball-eyed lemurs, led by hyperactive king Sacha Baron Cohen, with a mercurial Middle Eastern accent and a delivery like a machine gun shooting Ping-Pong balls. Drafted and animated to resemble E-stoked clubbers bouncing to a remix of "I Like to Move It," their rainbow-colored corneas huge and shining in giddy rapture, the lemurs are enough of a comic wonder to render the other characters obsolete. A few other toss-off gags workedmy favorite was a glimpse of the lemurs' court stenographer, a fat chameleon who strikes from the record with his tongueand Madagascar's relaxed density is a relief given the DreamWorks tendency to overbear, overblast, and overcaricaturize. Even as the references fall flat and the story plods, it's obvious the animation crew for the supporting creaturesincluding an unlucky duckling and a Mogwai bush babyhad the most fun.

Your backbone is made up of 29 hollow bones, or vertebrae, which protect the spinal cord. Your brain communicates with your body via electrical signals that travel along the spinal cord - similar to a power line carrying electricity from a power station to your home. Damage to the power line would sever the connection, and cause a power cut. The same happens if you break your backbone.

Solving border pollution woes
Ultimately, agencies and elected officials will have to be even more creative and visionary if we are to solve the most pressing environmental problem in California and along the entire U. S-Mexico border. They should look north to efforts in Los Angeles to make the concrete and garbage-laden Los Angeles River more of a natural waterway. Cross-border engineers need to apply a resource conservation ethic to managing the Tijuana River watershed. The concrete Tijuana River in Mexico should be restored into a revitalized urban green space and waterway that integrates the need for flood control, pollution reduction and creating more desperately needed recreational space for Tijuana residents.
After all, on a sunny morning before winter rains hit, there is no more stunning location in San Diego County than the mouth of the Tijuana River. The river mouth is where I often surf beautiful waves with my two sons, lifelong friends, leopard sharks and a resident pod of bottlenose dolphins. That piece of our wild coastline, and the watershed that gives it life, are surely worth restoring and preserving to benefit generations to come in both Mexico and the United States.
Dedina, a resident of Imperial Beach, is the executive director of WildCoast.

Ontario: About SSE Ontario
Pretty much everyone sees the world's problems and wishes things were different. And a whole lot of us have creative ideas for solutions. Sadly, most of us never bring our ideas to life, believing that "fixing the world is a job for someone better than me."
But what if there were a place that could bring community dreamers together—and with just a little nudging and support—help them discover their talents and skills to make their breakthrough ideas a reality?
The School for Social Entrepreneurs Ontario
Founded in 1997 in London, England, the School for Social Entrepreneurs (SSE) was created to assist everyday people in launching a social purpose business, non-profit organization, cooperative, or social venture for the benefit of their community. SSE Ontario came to Canada in 2012, making it one of the newest members of a thriving international network of 18 SSE schools worldwide.
Using an alternative classroom format honed over 17 years, SSE Ontario helps students connect deeply to themselves and others, and to let go of the false beliefs that have prevented them from following their dreams.
We prioritize students' individual growth within the context of their projects, and connect them to a network of mentors, experts, accomplished entrepreneurs, and social investors.
Based on the journeys of thousands of SSE fellows worldwide, we know that when everyday people rise to the challenges of our day, they transform the communities around them.
As SSE Ontario enters its third year of operation, we will continue unleashing tremendous people power for a more beautiful world today.
Our Vision
A socially just, environmentally sustainable, and economically prosperous Ontario, one built upon strong, empowered, and resilient communities.
Our Mission
To catalyze social change and empower communities through the development of transformational community leaders and social ventures that produce tangible, visible, meaningful, and positive impact.
Our History
The School for Social Entrepreneurs (SSE) was founded in 1997 by Michael Young, a distinguished and passionate serial social entrepreneur.
SSE Ontario was founded by a collaborative steering committee of the Housing Services Corporation, SiG@MaRS, ACCESS Community Capital Fund, and the Toronto Centre for Community Learning and Development.
Today, SSE Ontario is a project of Tides Canada Initiatives Society (TCI), a Canadian charity registered with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), BN: 130560188 RR0001.
SSE Ontario is generously supported by the Ontario Trillium Foundation and RSA.

Shin Osaka station guide. How to change Shinkansen, Haruka, Thunderbird and local train access to Osaka, Umeda and Namba
Shin-Osaka station is the place where you change to/from Shinkansen. If you travel in Osaka, you may use this station at least once. All Shikansen trains stop at this station and many limited express trains on conventional lines stop or depart from this station, Shin-Osaka.
In this post, I would like to show you some images and explain about this station. You will get the information about transfer among trains.
First of all, please see Shin-Osakai station map on JR Central website.
Shin-Osaka station is composed of four levels, Shinkansen tracks on 4th floor, fare gate and concourse on 3rd floor and conventional line's tracks on ground floor. On 2nd floor, there are some shops and restaurants. But as long as you transfer the trains in this station, you don't see 2nd floor.
Shin-Osaka station is one station and three minutes away from Osaka station (Umeda area). But atmosphere in Shin-Osaka is totally different from Osaka station, Umeda area. Three is no huge shopping complex around Shin-Osaka station. Don't expect shopping and food experience around Shin-Osaka station. But mostly hotel rate is cheaper than Umeda area. It takes only 3 minutes by train. If you really care about accommodation cost, Shin-Osaka may be suitable for you.
Ticket gate/Exit
There are three ticket gates, East, South and Central on 3rd floor.
If you want to exit from conventional line's platform, you can use East exit only. Other two exit, South and Central are located in Shinkansen concourse. You cannot access to these two exits without Shinkansen ticket. If you use Japan Rail Pass, you can go through Shinkansen concourse without any extra charge. You don't need to exchange any Shinkansen ticket. All you have to do is showing your Japan Rail Pass at Shinkansen
There is Shinkansen ticket gate in the concourse. When you transfer to/from Shinkansen, you need to go through this gate. You must have Shinkasen ticket, Japan Rail Pass, JR West Sanyo Area Pass, JR West Sanyo-Shikoku-Kyushu Pass or JR West Kansai WIDE Area Pass to access to Shinkansen platform/concourse. JR West Kansai Area Pass do NOT cover Shinaksen trains.
Tracks and platforms
There are 8 tracks / 4 platforms for conventional lines on ground floor and 7 tracks / 4 platforms for Shinkansen on 4th floor. There are no track #1-10 in Shin-Osaka station.
Shinkansen on 4th floor
There are seven tracks, #20-#26.
|Name of line
|Sanyo Shinkansen
|Okayama, Hiroshima, Hakata
|Kyushu Shinkansen
|Hiroshima, Hakata, Kumamoto, Kagoshima-Chuo
|Tokaido Shinkansen
|Kyoto, Nagoya, Tokyo
#20 track is mostly used for the train depart from Shin-Osaka. Trains from Tokyo that go to Okayama, Hiroshima and Hakata directly (Nozomi and Hikari) depart/arrive at track #21 and #22.
Conventional lines on Ground floor
You can get on Local commute train, Rapid service and limited express trains on conventional lines at track #11-18.
|Name of line
|■Limited Express Haruka
|Direct train to Kansai airport via Tennoji. This train does not stop at Osaka station. Trains from Kansai airport stop at this platform too.
|■Limited Express Kuroshio
|Direct train to Shirahama, Shingu, Kii-Katsuura via Tennoji. This train does not stop at Osaka station. Trains from Shirahama, Shingu or Kii-Katsuura stop at this platform too.

So if you go to/from Osaka, you usually use track #13-16. If you go to Kansai airport or Nanki area, like Shirahama, Shingu, go to track #11.
Access to/from Osaka station. How many minutes is enough to transfer
If you access to/from Osaka station (Umeda area), you can take any trains on conventional lines, limited express, special rapid, rapid or local. All trains stop at Shin-Osaka and takes only 3 minutes. If you use Japan Rail Pass, technically you can take limited express for even three minutes transfer without any extra charge. But special rapid, rapid or local trains are more convenient because it is more frequent and many more passenger's door save your time to get off the trains. Anyway it is just three minutes transfer. It is not a big issue.
In regards to transfer, minimum transfer time is 10 minutes according to JR West. I totally agree with it. But if you will plan to purchase Shinkansen ticket at Shinkansen transfer gate, you may spend another 10 minutes. If you really worry to miss the train, expect to spend another 5 minutes, total 15 minutes. It is enough.
Access to/from Namba station by Osaka Subway Midousuji line
If you go to another downtown core, Namba, Osaka Subway Midousuji line is the best way to get there. You can access to Namba by JR lines. But it is a detour and JR Namba station is not located at the center of Namba area. Midousuji line Shin-Osaka station is located at 2nd level. Shinkansen Central ticket gate is the closest to subway station.
If you transfer to subway from Shinkansen train, minimum transfer time is 10 minutes. But if you tranfer from conventional line trains, you might spend another 5 minutes to transfer. The fare is 270 yen. You can take JR train to Osaka and transfer to subway at Umeda station. But you can save only 40 yen. Shin-Osaka is much easier and faster to transfer.
Tokyo (from US$16)
Kyoto (from US$21)
Osaka (from US$20)

Lilium 'Black Beauty'
- Position: full sun
- Soil: well-drained soil enriched with leaf mould ora loam-based potting compost, such as John Innes no2
- Rate of growth: average
- Flowering period: July
- Hardiness: fully hardy
Stunning sprays of scented, turkscap, blackish-red flowers with green centres and white margins appear in midsummer. The flowers make a fabulous display at the back of the border, or grouped in a container. This great summer-flowering bulb is universally loved because of its showy flowers that light up the garden, but like all lilies, is susceptible to lily beetle.
The RSPCA have recently reported that all parts of lilies can be fatal to cats, including the flower, leaves and pollen. For more information visit Rspca.org
- Garden care: Bulbs are best planted in autumn but can also be planted in spring. Plant them 2-3 times their own depth and the equivalent spacing between bulbs.

Hi I have grown Lilies for the 1st time this year. Can you advise me if they are annuals or bi-annuals? What do you do after flowering? Kind regards RobertAsked on 7/19/2009 by boblee
1 answer
A:Hello Robert, These are bulbous perennials, so will carry on year after year. They will be starting to die back soon, but you should still be feeding with a high potash fertiliser now. Leave them where they are and make sure they are well watered - in winter you can cut this back a little - and they should come back again next year. I hope this helps.

agement system. When performing these reviews, it is important that the organization have a plan for following up on the results of the audit to ensure that problems are addressed and that recognition is given where it is deserved.
The concept of change management in the laboratory environment varies markedly from methods typically prescribed, for example, in manufacturing operations. By its very nature, the business of conducting experiments is constantly changing. Therefore, it is a part of everyday activities to evaluate modifications and/or technological developments in experimental and scale-up processes. As such, a number of standard practices are used to identify appropriate handling practices, containment methods, and required procedures for conducting laboratory work in a safe manner. Several examples of these practices include
• identification of molecules as particularly hazardous substances (PHSs),2 which specifies certain handling and containment requirements and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE);
• approval and training for new radioisotope users;
• completion of biosafety risk assessments for the use of infectious agents; and
• Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) review of chemicals being used.
2.A.6 Management Review of EHS Management System
Top management should review the organization's EHS management system at regular intervals to ensure its continuing suitability, adequacy, and effectiveness. This review includes assessing opportunities for improvement and the need for changes in the management system, including the EHS policy and objectives. The results of the management review should be documented.
Among other information, a management review should include the following:
• results of EHS management system audits,
• results from any external audits,
• communications from interested parties,
• extent to which objectives have been met,
• status of corrective and preventive actions,
• follow-up actions from previous management reviews, and
• recommendations for improvement based on changing circumstances.
The outputs from management review should include any decisions and actions related to possible change to EHS policy, objectives, and other elements of the management system, consistent with the commitment to continual improvement.
The management system review ensures a regular process that evaluates the EHS management system in order to identify deficiencies and modify them. Systemic gaps, evidence that targets are not being met, or compliance issues that are discovered during compliance or risk assessments indicate a possible need for revision to the management system or its implementation.
2.A.7 Example Management System: Department of Energy Integrated Safety Management System
One example of a common EHS management system is that used by the Department of Energy (DOE). The agency's Integrated Safety Management (ISM) system, adopted in 1996, is used at all DOE facilities, and has been used as a model for other agencies and institutions. The system consists of six guiding principles and five core management safety functions. The principles and functions in DOE Policy DOE P 450.4 (DOE, 1994), outlined below, require planning, identification of hazards and controls before work begins, and for work to be performed within these defined and planned methods.
• Line management responsibility for safety. Line management is directly responsible for the protection of the public, the workers, and the environment. As a complement to line management, the Department's Office of Environment, Safety, and Health provides safety policy, enforcement, and independent oversight functions.
• Clear roles and responsibilities. Clear and unambiguous lines of authority and responsibility for ensuring safety shall be established and maintained at all organizational levels within the Department and its contractors.
• Competence commensurate with responsibilities. Personnel shall possess the experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities that are necessary to discharge their responsibilities.
• Balanced priorities. Resources shall be effectively allocated to address safety, programmatic, and operational considerations. Protecting the public, the workers, and the environment shall be a priority whenever activities are planned and performed.
• Identification of safety standards and requirements. Before work is performed, the associated
2The term "particularly hazardous substances" is used by Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and defined in the Laboratory Standard 29 CFR § 1910.1450. (For more information see Chapter 4, section 4.C.3.)

I want to have the same theme on other domain and here is told that i have to buy that theme once again to have license. The problem is that I have customized that theme and I don't want to do the whole job once again. So what do you recommend me to do?
Best Regards, Ming
So what do you recommend me to do?
I'm not an expert by any means, but I'd imagine you'd need to buy the theme again so you had a second license then you could just copy the old theme to your new website.
If you mean have it on BOTH domains at once then you will need to buy a duplicate copy to get the license then just make a copy of the cusotmised one and put that on the second location.
Effectively you are buying the license and rights to use it in more than new location you do not have to rebuild a second copy from scratch.
If you mean MOVE the whole thing then you can use the original as long as you delete the old copy/location when you move it over.
Hope that helps

Grand Theft Auto 4 Could Eclipse Halo 3 on Xbox Live
Consumer reaction to the recent release of Rockstar Games' "Grand Theft Auto 4," may result in a change in ranks among popular games on the popular online service Xbox Live.
Since Xbox Live's premiere, it has been rare to see non-first-person shooter games at the top of the list of its most played games.
Games such as "Halo 3″ and "Call of Duty 4″ have maintained a strong constant following of faithful gamers, but the new inclusion of "Grand Theft Auto 4″ is posing a threat to their longstanding title.
On Tuesday, the game became available to Xbox 360 and Sony Playstation 3 users. It was the first time in the game's history that it was created with online features as well. After previously being a one-player game, now up to 16 players can join 15 different online game types, such as cops-and-robbers team matches to free-for-alls.
"The multiplayer in this game is so well implemented that I can't imagine anyone owning a copy without trying to play it on Xbox Live," said Aaron Greenberg, the director of product management for Xbox 360 and Xbox Live.
"GTA is unique because it appeals to such a large audience. It will likely be the best-selling game launched all year and we expect it will drive a lot of new members to Xbox Live."
The game is even poised to take the number one spot on Xbox Live, Greenberg said.
It is the most anticipated game of the year, and with critic acclaim, first-week sales are expected to reach about $400 million, eclipsing Xbox 360′s release of Halo 3 last year.
"This has the capabilities of being more popular online than 'Halo 3′," said IDC analyst Billy Pidgeon.
Pidgeon said on the first night of the game's release, he went online and found most of his friends already playing online before attempting to play the single player part of the game.
"I think the console, even more so than the PC, has the potential to have lots of different types of games be popular online," Pidgeon said.
"GTA is an important piece of that. It can lead the way online for a large contingent of players who don't play first-person shooters."
Michael Pachter, an analyst with Wedbush Morgan, estimates that only 40 percent of Xbox 360 owners routinely play online.
"This one definitely has more for everybody than any previous game," Pachter said.

Hygienic pads such as sanitary napkins are provided with extensions, which can be attached to a central pad unit to increase the dimension in a direction determined by the user.
1. A sanitary napkin comprising:
a primary pad containing fluid absorptive material, said primary pad having a top, a bottom, sides, a vertical thickness, a lateral width and a longitudinal length;
a second pad containing fluid absorptive material; and
means for engaging said second pad to said primary pad to thereby extend said primary pad along said width and length, this extension being maintained in use of the sanitary napkin wherein said primary pad further includes a fluid impervious baffle along said bottom, a portion of said baffle extending beyond a side of said primary pad along said longitudinal length, said second pad having a mating portion adapted to be received on said extended baffle portion, and adhesive means on said mating portion for fixing said mating portion to said extended baffle portion.
2. The sanitary napkin of claim 1 wherein said engagement means comprises a tongue extending beyond a side of said primary pad, and adhesive means on said second pad for affixing said second pad to said tongue.
3. The sanitary napkin of claim 1 wherein said side of said primary pad beyond which said baffle extends has a contour, and said second pad has a side adjacent said mating portion which has a contour which complements said primary pad contour such that the sanitary napkin has a substantially unbroken top surface.
4. A hygienic pad of the type having an absorbent layer with a top surface and a bottom surface, a fluid permeable wrap overlying the top surface and a fluid impermeable baffle adjacent the bottom surface, comprising:
a principal hygienic pad having at least one attachment face located at its periphery; and
at least one secondary hygienic pad having an opposed mating face adapted to engage the attachment face of the principal hygienic pad to attach said primary and secondary pads together, thereby varying the length or width of the principal hygienic pad.
5. A sanitary napkin comprising:
an elongated primary pad containing fluid absorptive material, said pad having a top, a bottom and a pair of ends along a longitudinal axis;
a second pad containing absorptive material; and
means for engaging said second pad to said primary pad at one of said ends to thereby increase the longitudinal length of said sanitary napkin wherein said primary pad includes a fluid impervious baffle along said bottom, a portion of said baffle extending beyond a pad end, said second pad having a mating portion which overlies said baffle extension and mates with said pad end to form a substantially continuous top surface to the sanitary napkin, said mating porton including adhesive means to affix said second pad to said baffle extension.
This invention relates to a hygienic pad such as a sanitary napkin. Particularly, this invention relates to a sanitary napkin or incontinence pad having a configuration which can be ultimately determined by the user.
Hygienic pads, such as sanitary napkins and incontinence pads are usually designed to be symmetrical in configuration and of greater lengthwise than transverse dimension.
There have been some attempts to design such pads to provide a better contoured fit in the perineal area. One of the difficulties in attempting to design such a pad is that women have an almost infinite variety of body shape and muscle tone in the upper thigh region, and therefore, pads which provide superior comfort and protection for some women due to their configuration, may actually be deficient in these characteristics when worn by women of a different body type.
It has also been recognized that a certain percentage of the female population have extremely heavy flow during portions of the menstrual cycle. In addition, most women have heavy menstrual discharge early in the morning due to the retention of menses during sleep and at sudden discharge upon awakening.
Women have tried a variety of means to prevent staining and spotting during these heavy flow times. Some combine protection means such as using a tampon with a maxi-pad, or they will stack two pads. The latter has proven to be ineffective because only a small amount of the overflow from the top pad will reach the bottom pad and depending upon the positioning of the bottom pad very little will contact it due to the presence of the fluid impermeable baffle on the bottom of the first pad. Incontinence pads also are designed to be worn by the average user although, due to the nature of incontinence, there are a large variety of shapes and configurations available.
U.S. Pat. No. 2,683,457 describes the sanitary napkin having a recessed area positioned in the center, which is designed to receive a separate padlet positioned in the approximate center of the napkin. When the padlet is in place, the sanitary napkin is somewhat thicker in the center than on either end, but it is otherwise essentially of conventional configuration.
U.S. Pat. No. 2,771,882 discloses a flat hygienic pad that is designed to be segmented and each segment formed in a U-shaped configuration which is then used instead of tampon.
According to this invention a hygienic pad such as a sanitary napkin is provided with a primary elongate, absorbent element and at least one mating surface designed to engage a second absorbent element having a corresponding mating area. Thereby enabling the wearer to custom shape and design a hygienic pad for her particular purposes.
This invention may be more readily understood by reference to the drawings in which FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the first and second sections of the hygienic pad of this invention; and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of an alternative second section according to this invention.
As can be seen in FIG. 1, a first elongate section 1 has a fluid permeable cover 6 overlying an absorbent pad (not shown) on both the top side and end surfaces. The baffle 5 extends beyond the end of the wrapped absorbent pad and in combination with the curved end 3 forms a mating surface for attachment of a secondary absorbent section 2 which has a fluid pervious cover or wrap 6 overlying an absorbent layer (not shown) and a baffle segment 15 positioned on the bottom of the second section 2 and extending beyond one end. The baffle section 15 has an adhesive band 4, shown in phantom lines, designed to engage baffle extension 5 of FIG. 1 with mating end 13 designed to tightly about the mating end 3 to form a substantially continuous flat surface at the juncture of the two pads section.
The baffle section 15 may not be needed if the baffle of the elongate segment is of sufficent length to offer protection for most of the extension. The baffle of the second section 2 may not be needed in any event, because the fluid runoff at the end of the composite napkin may not be of sufficient volume to saturate the absorbent at the end and require the same type of baffle protection present at the bottom of the first elongate section.
In FIG. 1, the extension designed to provide a support surface for the adhesive attachment of the secondary absorbent section is made up of the extended baffle but, depending upon the particular pad construction may also include the wrap 6 which can be sealed to the baffle by ultrasonic means or the like as is well known in the art. The particular construction of the elongate pad 1 with regard to whether the wrap 6 forms part of the extension which is a portion of the mating surface is not particularly relevant to the concept of the invention. The wrap may also extend over the baffle on the bottom portion of the napkin as is well known in the art.
In FIG. 2, another configuration for the secondary section 22 is depicted and in this instance there is no baffle 15 extending beyond the back nonmating end of the pad. It is possible within the teachings of this invention to laterally extend the tongue portion 24 and change the mating surface so that the tongue extension is bifurcated to form legs which would add width to the composite hygienic pad at the end or ends of the first elongate section 1. It is also within the ambit of this invention to extend the composite pad in both longitudinal directions and the extensions need not be of the same geometrical configuration.
While is shown in FIG. 1, adhesive means are provided for the essentially continuous attachment of the components, other attachment means can be utilized although for the maximum benefit the intimate contact between the mating surfaces particularly at the top is desirable so that a continuous surface is exposed to fluid discharge.
With the teachings of this invention it is also possible to design a pad which is both a sanitary and incontinence absorbent depending upon the position and the configuration of each of the elements.
It should be noted that the first elongate section can function as a sanitary napkin by itself and at some time during use the component parts may be added as desired to ultimately change the shape of the napkin.

Finally starting now. Pretty psyched about tonight based on the title, because my own career got started in the clean room of Ariel Anbar.
Also, because I'm starting late I'm ditching Twitter for the night and will just post my thoughts free-form here. That means less pictures and more text.

Who's Trending? (Part 3)Submitted by chad on September 5, 2014 - 22:27
We continue with Part 3 of our Who's Trending? series, examining prospect values as camp approaches. As we've mentioned many times, the great part about hockey – and especially developmental hockey – is this is subject to change. We call this The Afanasenkov Rule.
The series includes current prospects and players that started last season as prospects who remain in the Tampa Bay Lightning organization.
ICMYI: Part 1 (Prospects ranked 1-10), Part 2 (Prospects ranked 11-25)
Who's Trending? (Part 1)Submitted by chad on August 23, 2014 - 11:29
The NHL Entry Draft and Free Agency Frenzy are tiny blips in the rearview mirror and the next event – the Nashville prospects tournament – is still a few weeks away (and we'll be there). August is the low-point of the hockey year and the Bolt Prospects staff has been using this lull to re-charge their batteries in preparation for another long season of daily reports and constant updates and commentary.
Editor's Note: Batteries is a figurative term. We're not robots, though we feel like it sometimes.
The prospects themselves are hard at work preparing for the season and/or dumping ice buckets over their respective heads for a good cause. Some, like Jonathan Drouin, have aspirations to make the big club. Others, like Daniel Milan, are hoping to stay in the organization beyond this season.
It's time to take a look at who's trending in what direction as camp approaches. The great part about hockey, and especially developmental hockey – is this is subject to change. There are few things more exciting than watching someone turn their career around. This is the Afanasenkov Rule. You never know.
The following 4-part series includes current prospects and players that started last season as prospects who remain in the Tampa Bay Lightning organization.
2013-2014 Supplemental Prospect RankingsSubmitted by chad on July 25, 2014 - 09:36
Written by Pete Choquette (@jollymeangiant)
The dog days of summer find us in a rare lull on the calendar here on Bolt Prospects between the ending of Lightning rookie camp and the start of annual prospect tournaments and training camp. What better opportunity to take the time to examine how the Lightning's 2014 draft class figures into our rankings? With that in mind, here's our 2013-2014 Supplemental Prospect Rankings, the final round of rankings before the 2014-2015 season.
The 2014 NHL Entry Draft offered a tremendous opportunity for the Tampa Bay Lightning to replenish a prospect system that has been depleted by the mass graduation of well over a half a dozen prospects that moved up from the AHL to NHL level last season. Some of the finest prospects in the land still held down the top spots in the rankings, but there was a considerable vacuum behind the top half dozen or so spots. With three picks in the coveted top-60 of the 2014 NHL Entry Draft, the team held three golden tickets to begin to restock and reload. The Lightning used those picks to select three defensemen, addressing the most obvious deficiency in their prospect pipeline. Will the needs-based approach to drafting pay off, or will the shift in philosophy this year backfire on the club? Time will tell.
Before we start with the rankings, it's time to once again review the rules of the rankings. Players under 24 years of age on opening night of the 2013-2014 NHL season were eligible for the rankings. Older prospects are considered overage prospects for the purposes of the website (sorry, J.P. Cote). Any skater prospect with 41 or more NHL games in a single season or 82 or more career NHL games is considered graduated on the website. Any goaltender with 30 or more decisions in a single NHL season or 41 career NHL decisions is also considered graduated. Lastly, NCAA prospects are exempt from the 24 year-old cutoff for the duration of their college careers.
Got it? There will be a quiz later. With that out of the way, let's begin...

The risk for ovarian cancer and skin cancer is increased with basal cell nevus syndrome (also called Gorlin syndrome or nevoid basal cell carcinoma), a rare autosomal dominant cancer genetic syndrome. Features associated with basal cell nevus syndrome may include the following:
Development of more than 2 basal cell carcinomas (cancer of the outer layer of the skin) before the age of 20
Cysts in the jaw
Characteristic facial appearance
Calcification of the falx (a variation in the appearance of the skull that is visible on X-rays)
Pits in the palms and soles of the feet
Macrocephaly (enlarged head size)
Rib or vertebral abnormalities
Increased risk of medulloblastoma during childhood
Increased risk of cardiac or ovarian fibromas (benign, or noncancerous, tumors)
Basal cell nevus syndrome is caused by changes in a tumor suppressor gene, called PTCH1, located on chromosome 9. Mutations in this gene may increase the risk of some cancers.
Molecular genetic testing of PTCH1 is available on a clinical basis.
Tumor suppressor genes usually control cell growth and cell death. Every person is born with two copies of each tumor suppressor gene, one inherited from his or her mother and one from his or her father. Both copies of a tumor suppressor gene must be altered, or mutated, before a person may develop cancer. With basal cell nevus syndrome, the first mutation is inherited from either the mother or the father in 70% to 80% of cases. In 20% to 30% of cases, the first mutation is not inherited and arises de novo (for the first time) in the affected person. Whether de novo or inherited, this first mutation is present in all of the cells of the body from conception and is called a germline mutation.
Whether a person who has a germline mutation will develop cancer and where the cancer(s) will develop depends on where (which cell type) the second mutation occurs. For example, if the second mutation is in the skin, then skin cancer may develop. If it is in the ovary, then ovarian cancer may develop. The process of tumor development actually requires mutations in multiple growth control genes. Loss of both copies of PTCH1 is just the first step in the process. What causes these additional mutations is unknown. Possible causes include chemical, physical, or biological environmental exposures (such as sunlight) or chance errors in cell replication.
Some individuals who have inherited a germline tumor suppressor gene mutation may never develop cancer because they never get the second mutation necessary to knock out the function of the gene and start the process of tumor formation. This can make the cancer appear to skip generations in a family, when, in reality the mutation is present. People with a PTCH1 mutation, regardless of whether they develop cancer, have a 50/50 chance to pass the mutation on to each of their children.
It is also important to remember that the gene responsible for basal cell nevus syndrome is not located on the sex chromosomes. Therefore, mutations can be inherited from the mother's side or the father's side of the family.

Busch holds off Bodine for victory

CONCORD, N.C. -- Lack of funding, loose lug nuts, a rare driver mistake and a long day couldn't stop Kyle Busch from his 70th visit to Victory Lane.
Busch overcame early problems and held off a charging Todd Bodine at Charlotte Motor Speedway in a Trucks Series race that didn't end until early Saturday morning because of a lengthy rain delay.
Busch recovered from hitting the wall early and had the lead over Ron Hornaday Jr. on a restart with three laps to go. Bodine moved into second, ...
