How did harness racing trainer Richard Moreau spend New Year's Eve? By watching Team Canada celebrate another win over Team USA in the World Junior Hockey Championship at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec. If you're able to re-watch the game, you can find Richard five rows behind the penalty box cheering on his home country. Continuing with the hockey theme; Richard was named after Hall of Famer and hockey legend Maurice 'Rocket' Richard. His father was a big hockey fan, "That's how I got my name but I don't like it. It makes me sound old; I would have liked Michael better." Richard says with a laugh. For Moreau, watching winners is a regular thing but winning is something that never gets old. 2014 was another great year for Richard, which saw him finish atop the leader board as top trainer in wins at Grand River Raceway, Hanover Raceway and Woodbine Racetrack. He also scored for most money won by a trainer at Hanover Raceway and Flamboro Downs. For all the success over the years, Moreau confirms its hard work that made him reach the level of success he's had. "You make your own luck" says Richard on his stables' success. Since 1988, he has won over $37,000,000 in purses. That's definitely not luck! In 1276 starts, he finished 2014 with 247 wins and over $2,700,000 in purses. For all the success, one would think you would see Richard in the spotlight but that's not Richard. He prefers to pass the accolades on to his team. "I'm more of a private person" says Richard. "I do my job and I have good people behind me." Respect, humbleness and classy are words that define the essence of Richard Moreau. For Christmas, he threw a party for 65 guests and he enjoyed watching everyone having a good time. So much so, Richard didn't want anyone really knowing that he paid for all of it. "I hired musicians" Richard notes, "and I told them 'you're not going to know who I am, but I will pay you before the night is over. Don't mention my name on the loud speaker and everything will be cool.' That's just the way I am, I've always been like that. "It's how you choose to have your name out there," Richard states. Looking back at the 2013 Metro Pace won by Boomboom Ballykeel who Richard trained, you will not find Richard in any of the win photos. "I told them I was busy warming up my horse for the next race" says Richard with a chuckle. If Richard goes to a nightclub, he can guarantee that he will not dance. If Coldplay or U2 is playing, he may groove along. If country music is on, well, country jams are not Richard's thing. Though he is a reserved and quiet person, don't let that fool you to believe he's a pushover. Not by any means, Richard is just as competitive as everyone else. Instead of being aggressive and on edge,he prefers to laugh and enjoy the moment. "Life is too short" states Richard on his perception of life and getting wrapped up in the small things. For the 2014 Woodbine title as top trainer in wins, he recalls laughing with Carmen Auciello about who will finish with the most wins. "He was on top by ten with a week to go" explains Richard. "On the last (race) day, I won the first race which put us at one apart. He's a buddy of mine; it was a lot of fun." I wish I was a fly on the wall to hear that conversation with Carmen Auciello who is a fellow classy trainer and person. Richards New Year's resolution for 2015 is to continue to be consistent and keep his owners happy. Richard keeps it simple and to the point, not wanting to over complicate matters. For the 2015 season, Richard is also looking to increase his stable size with quality horses. If you're an owner with interest, email Richard Moreau at email@example.com or reach him at 1-514-703-4235. "It's easy to do what I do because I love what I do." Richard continues, "I treat my workers like family." In one month, he admits he can have as many as 15 horses join his barn and another 15 leave his barn and it is because of his team that all of this is manageable. To unwind from his busy schedule, Richard hits the slopes for some skiing or going to sporting events like NASCAR races, hockey and basketball games. He's a Toronto Raptors fan! "Sometimes I feel like the conductor of an orchestra" explains Richard. "Sometime you need to disconnect. Every two weeks I go to Montreal to see my son, Gabriel. He's my pride." by Rod Balgobin, for Harnesslink.com

ELORA, ON - The most important job at Grand River Raceway in Elora may just belong to the harness racing track veterinarian Dr. Pat Meyers. "Essentially, you're looking after the welfare of the horse, but in addition to that you're also making sure the betting public is not betting on any lame horses, said Meyers, 59, who has been the track vet at Grand River Raceway since the track opened in 2003. Before that he was the vet at Elmira Raceway and Hanover Raceway going back to 1998. On a wet Wednesday night, Meyers was busy carefully watching a group of three-year-old pacing fillies warm up for an Ontario Sires Stakes (OSS) Grassroots event that was subsequently postponed due to the monsoon causing unsafe track conditions. The vet said one of his jobs on race nights is to watch every horse warm up. "You're looking for any possible signs of lameness," he said. "Then if you have one that is slightly off, you go and talk to the trainer and make sure that he's not racing a horse that's going to be lame." Meyers is also on hand to help horses injured while racing. "Usually if there is an accident on the track you have to make sure you take care of any horses that are injured at least from a remedial standpoint or from a first aid standpoint," he said. After races, Meyers also helps trainers determine why a horse may not have raced well by inserting a small camera called an endoscope into a horse's air passage to check their lungs. He also helps out, when necessary, to take blood samples of horses for testing. Though Meyers isn't in charge of the testing protocol, racehorses in Ontario undergo some of the strictest pre- and post-race testing in the world for performance enhancing drugs. "The only time I get involved in any of those things is, for instance, if a person has difficulty taking a blood sample from a particular horse, then I would go and assist or at the end of the night if there's no veterinary technician to take blood," Meyers said. "So, I'm not intimately involved in it, but I do on the periphery." Other than the small number of times he's had to deal with a catastrophic injury to a horse in his 26 years as a track vet, Meyers said he enjoys his work and being at Grand River Raceway. "The job is pretty fun because you get to talk to a lot of interesting people at the track and find out what's going on in the industry," he said. Meyers, who runs Emerald Ridge Farm in Rockwood, ON with his wife, Anna, hasn't bred any horses the last two years, but he's been in the breeding business for a long time. He said the horse that changed his life was Emerald Whisper, an Earl mare out of Royal Design he produced with Terry Devos. "She made about $180,000 for us as a two- and three-year-old and she almost won the (OSS) Grassroots Final for two-year-old trotting fillies (in 2007). That was the one that changed it for me personally."

An enthusiastic harness racing crowd braved the cold and rainy weather at Hanover Raceway Saturday night. The staff from CKNX, 101.7 The One and 94.5 Classic rock brought with them a 50 inch Smart TV and blue ray player and the winner was Dave Middleton of Port Elgin. Middleton was on hand as part of a 40 person group from Sun Life in Hanover and Owen Sound. The group enjoyed an afternoon BBQ with their families and stayed around for the evening harness races. On the track, a pair of drivers picked up Hat-tricks. Bruce Richardson who leads all dash winning drivers with 29 wins started off the hat-trick winning race 4 with Emerald Echo in 2:05 for owners Dayle McFadden of Ayton and Lynne McFadden of Barrie. The Arthur native won the very next race with The Voice in 2:05.1 which he shares ownership on with Joe Coffey of Orangeville and Terry Oneil of Arthur. Richardson capped off the night with his final win in Race 9 driving Adventure Luck to victory in 1:59.1 for owner Bruce Winning of Madoc. House meanwhile started off his winning streak in Race 3 with American Grace in 2:01.2 for the Kevin Mcmaster stables of Guelph. Win number 2 was in race 6 with Serious Fool in 1:59.4 for owner Robert Daer of Goderich and House capped the hat-trick in the nightcap with Sandburg Hanover for the Kevin Mcmaster stables of Guelph. Hanover Raceway also held Horse Racing Bingo for the first time, and unfortunately no one in the crowd filled out a full bingo card. Because of that, Hanover Raceway is going to play BINGO again next Saturday for the first 250 people who are 18 and over at the program information booth. Post time next Saturday night is 7:15pm.

Driver Trevor Henry was the star of the show on Saturday night at Hanover Raceway as he won five of the six $18,000 Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots Series events for two-year-old male trotters that were staged and added an overnight victory to give him a total of six triumphs on the ten-race program. Henry teamed up with trainer Paul Reid for a pair of his wins. That duo struck for the first time in the third division with Snapshot Springs, who led through fractions of :31, 1:04.1, and 1:34.4 on his way to a 2:04.3 victory, and they were back for another win photo after Olympic Son overcame an early break and a first-over trip to win the nightcap by half a length in 2:03.1. Snapshot Springs, a Striking Sahbra gelding, is a homebred for Rick and Regina Beinhauer of Venetia, Pennsylvania. He has won half of his six starts this year, with all his victories coming in Grassroots company, and he has earned $31,500. He's the eighth foal out of the S Js Photo mare Spring Photo ($246,089). Reid trains Olympic Son, a colt by Majestic Son, for owner/breeder Bob Key of Leechburg, Pennsylvania. Olympic Son picked up his second win from four attempts, and he has now put away $22,320. The winner is the second foal out of the Yankee Glide mare Graceful Sister ($104,714). Henry also swept the early daily double, which was comprised of Grassroots races, with Rob Roy, who led at every call on his way to a 2:03.4 tally, and Kadabrasnewrecruit, who turned a first-over journey into a 2:01.2 score. Henry then bagged the fourth split with Call Me Richard in 2:02. Rob Roy is trained by Richard Moreau for owner Mike Wassilyn of Rockwood, Ontario. Rob Roy, an Angus Hall colt, broke his maiden in his fourth try and pushed his bankroll to $10,550. Roy Roy, who was bred by Mike Sparks, fetched $5,500 at last year's Standardbred Horse Sale. He's the first foal out of the Yankee Glide mare Callisto Blue Chip. Trainer Bob McIntosh of Windsor, Ontario, owns Kadabrasnewrecruit, a gelded son of Kadabra. Kadabrasnewrecruit, who was bred by Tymal Farms, is two-for-three in the win column, and he has now earned $22,500. He's the fifth foal out of the Mr Lavec mare Keystone Alberta, who was third in the $100,000 Grassroots final when she was a two-year-old. Call Me Richard, who picked up his third win in Grassroots action, is trained by Clare Bradshaw. Andrea Arthur of Scotland, Ontario, owns Call Me Richard, whose dam is Andover Hall mare Olympic Dreams. Call Me Richard, now an earner of $32,940, was bred by Tri Star Farms Ltd. of Brantford, Ontario, and was hammered down for $11,500 at last year's Canadian Yearling Sale. The only horse to stop Henry's run was Parkhill Lancelot, who prevailed by a head in 2:02.4 in the fifth Grassroots tilt. Steve Byron drove the victorious Muscle Mass gelding for co-owner/breeder Parkhill Stud Farm of Peterborough, and co-owner Marshall Bax of Mississauga, Ontario. John Bax trains Parkhill Lancelot, who has won once from six trips behind the gate and earned $24,660. Parkhill Lancelot's dam is Harlequin Seelster (Duke Of York), a three-time OSS winner in her racing career. This concluded the Ontario Sires Stakes season at Hanover Raceway and the regular season for two-year-old colt and gelding trotters in the Grassroots Series. The next time they compete will be in the Grassroots Semifinals on September 19 at Mohawk Racetrack.

Charlie Ward isn't sure if his two-year-old trotting colt, Secret Muscle, will be the hometown hero when he competes Saturday night at his home track of Hanover Raceway "but he's my hero," says Ward of Hanover, Ontario, who is quite pleased with his youngster's progress to date. Secret Muscle has post two in the fourth of six Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots divisions with Steve Byron at the controls. The Muscle Mass colt sits with 29 Grassroots points currently and Ward is hoping that his charge will garner enough points to be eligible to compete in the Semi-Final events at Mohawk on September 19. "That's the goal. If he doesn't make it we'll quit with him and wait for next year. He's a nice colt, with a great attitude so I think he'll make a good three-year-old," notes Ward who also handles the gelding's training. Ward purchased Secret Muscle, who is from the Sir Taurus mare No Secrets Hanover, from breeders Jeff and Dr. Terry Ruch at last year's Forest City Sale for a mere $3,000. "He was small but he's grown quite a bit. I tried to buy him privately before the sale but we couldn't come to an agreement. "I had his full brother (Bonus Feature). I really liked him but he died last year at two from chronic pneumonia. I thought he was going to be a nice horse which is why I wanted to buy Secret Muscle. He was perfect to break, I broke him myself, I didn't let him out of my sight because I didn't want him to get sick. "The only issue we had with him was when I tried to school him he wanted to go right to the gate. I turned him around and called (veterinarian) Huw Llewellyn who castrated him two days later and he's been a gentleman ever since. You'd hardly know he's in the barn, he's a smart colt," praises Ward who trains at the Fritz stable just outside of Hanover. Secret Muscle has competed in all five of the previous Grassroots events for this group with two fifth place finishes and then two thirds. In his last outing, at Georgian Downs on August 16 he made a break for the first time in his career and ended up seventh. "We took three horses to Georgian that night. It was really stormy and the track wasn't the best and all three horses made breaks. I don't like to train when it's muddy so I'm not sure if he stepped in a hole or got mud in his face, he'd never made a break on me before," explains Ward who is retired from trucking and trains six horses in total. "I've had horses for 40 years and am training full time now that I'm retired." Ward is quite hopeful for Secret Muscle's potential which is why he's turned down two offers on the colt. "He seems to be getting better, so we'll see what happens." Hanover's card gets underway at 7:15 p.m. with the rookie trotting colts featured in races one, two, four, six, eight and nine.

The sky's were threatening but the showers held off for the $70,600 final of the Balanced Image trot Saturday night at Hanover Raceway. Three fillies and five boys took part in the final after finishing in the top 2 positions in their eliminations on August 23rd. Gee Okeeffe owned by Chris Beaver and Wilbur Lang of Ohio went off as the favorite after the 2 year old filly won her elimination the week before in 2:01.1, and has put up impressive numbers in the Gold and Grassroots Ontario Sires Stakes program this season. The 2-year-old daughter of Holiday Road got off to a quick start leading the field through the first quarter in 29.2 and the half in 1:00.2. Desis Dream owned by Glengate Farms and the Parkhill stud farms got away 2nd and stayed in the pocket forcing Caulfield, driven by Trevor Henry to come first over at the half. The son of Kadabra stayed on the outside and moved to within a head of Gee Okeeffe past the 3 quarters in 1:30.3. Despite the outside trip Trevor Henry got the most out of his gelding and slipped past the front running filly in the stretch. The hometown favorite Platoon Seelster owned by Caroline Holiday of Mt Forest and Dennis Hannath of Harriston managed to close strongly nipping Gee Okeeffe for 2nd place at the wire. Caulfield, who is trained by Chris Beaver and owned by the Synerco Ventures company of Toronto finished the mile in 2:01, less than a second off the track record. Afterwards Trevor Henry said his colt showed a lot of guts spending most of his mile on the outside trying to catch Gee Okeeffe. The perseverance paid off. In other racing notes, Ryan Holiday won the Earl Ash Memorial Trot with CR Amigo for owner Ron Corbett of St Jacobs in 2:04.4. The Ontario Sires Stakes are back at Hanover next Saturday as 2 year old Colt Trotters hit the track. Post time at Hanover Raceway on September 6th is 7:15pm. From the press box at

There were four divisions of 2 year old trotters for the Balanced Image Trot eliminations hit the track as part of an 11 race card on Saturday night at Hanover Raceway. In the first elimination, a trio of breakers and some fancy stickhandling by driver Ryan Holliday got Platoon Seelster to the lead by the quarter mile marker in 30.2. The 2 year old son of Federal Flex led from start to finish in times of 1:01.1, 1:32.1 and the mile in 2:01.1. Race favorite Mandeville who has 3 OSS grassroots wins on larger tracks broke early and managed to fight his way back to second by the 3 quarter mile marker but when Keith Oliver tried to overtake Platoon Seelster around the final turn he went off stride again and lost his chances at a spot in the final. Irish Scotch owned by Paul Lindsey of Fergus inherited second place after the miscue. Platoon Seelster is owned by Ryan Holidays wife Caroline, and Dennis Hannath of Harriston. Hannath says the 2 year was 1 of 2 yearlings they bought at the London sale, however, the other one had to be put down, after it was injured following a tornado near Tottenham. Hannath says he's extremely happy with the geldings performance, and as for the final, Hannath says he doesn't care where he finishes, he's just happy to make it to the final. The second division was won by Allies Gift in times of 30.0, 1:00.1, 1:30.1 and 2:00.4 for a Quebec Ownership group, and driver Anthony Haughan. Leg 3 was won by Gee Okeefe for owners Chris Beaver and Wilbur Lang of Ohio and driver Dave Boughton who qualified 3 horses for the final. Boughton said the 2 year old filly who leads her OSS class this year was really easy to drive and had plenty of gas left in the tank. Gee Okeefe led from start to finish in times of 29.3, 1:01.0, 1:31.1 and the mile in 2:01.1. The final leg was won by another Chris Beaver trained gelding.

change wire size in a circuit?
Does the code allow you to change wire size in a circuit?
Can I take power from the last box in a 20A #12 circuit and drop down to #14 wire to power a ceiling light?
What I want to do is take power from the 20A circuit, run it to a 3 way switch using #14 from the last outlet box for the lighting portion of the circuit.
If you were to do that the entire circuit would need to be downgraded by replacing the 20 amp breaker with a 15 to protect the smallest wire.
Certain circuits are required to be 20 amps.

Wiping away her tears furiously, she walked back into the room and just as he was about to walk into the bathroom, he felt himself being grabbed by the shoulder and turned around. She stood there, her eyes full of rage and before he could open his mouth to say anything, she raised her hand to stop him. The anger in her eyes was so evident that for a split second, he felt like she might even slap him but instead, she clenched her fists and took a few deep breaths.
"Aap apne aap ko samajthe kyaa hain? Just who in hell do you think you are? I understand if you didn't want to talk. It was absolutely ok if you decided to pull a prank on me after what I did in the office today, lekin aapne yeh soch bhi kaise liya that I did all this to take some sort of a credit?"
"Look Khushi'" but his voice was cutoff with her deadly whisper.
"I. Wasn't. Done. Yet" she told him as she raised her index finger and jabbed it in his chest, grounding out each word. As he stared at her dumfounded, she continued.
Shocked out of his wits, Arnav stared at the audacity of this woman infront of him. She was going to teach him how to talk? Anger pumped through him and like always, he roughly grabbed her forearms. This time she stared at him without flinching and the next second, she raised her hands and brushed his hands off her as if she was trying to shoo away a fly.
"I am done talking to you. I always knew you didn't like me, but there is something called humanity in this world, which I think you either weren't taught about, or that thick brain of yours doesn't comprehend it. For the next five months, I don't want to talk to you. You do your own thing and I will do mine. You take the bed and I will sleep outside since being in the same room as me disgusts you. Aapko khaamoshi bahut pasand hai na? Toh ab apko vahi milegi. I will fulfill my duties as a wife in front of everyone in the family and at 9:35pm on August 14, I am going to walk out of this house. Not a second more or less. Sounds good?" Glaring at him, she turned around to walk out of the room but stopped at the door.
"Oh and by the way, if you married me because of Shyamji, I strongly advise you to go get your facts straight before it's too late." Saying that, she walked out of the room, leaving a stunned Arnav behind.
A few hours later when Arnav walked into the dining area after making numerous phone calls to get more information on Shyam's daily whereabouts, he heard mami bickering about something to mamaji and the rest of the table engaged in some sort of a discussion about a fancy dress party. The only person missing at the table was his wife and as he looked around, he found her coming out of the kitchen with a jug of water in her hands. As he looked at her hands carefully, his stomach dropped. However, Khushi went about her business, going around the table pouring everyone water. When she got to Anjali, Khushi felt Anjali's hand take a hold of her wrist and immediately asked what happened to her chudiyaan. She gave Arnav a sweet smile as she noticed the look of alarm on his face.
"Kuch nahi Di, my choodiyaan and payals made too much noise... aur Arnavji ko khaamoshi bahut pasand hai...haina Arnavji?" she asked Arnav while pouring him a glass a water while the rest of the table grinned at the lovebirds, unaware of the storm brewing between them.

Cedar Fire lessons helped us be better prepared
Ten years ago today, a huge wall of flames roared out of East County and raced toward our cities.
The Cedar Fire destroyed more than 2,800 structures, including more than 2,200 homes, and burned 427 square miles — an area larger than the city of San Diego. Fanned by violent Santa Ana winds, it still ranks as the biggest blaze in California history.
The disaster erupted on U.S. Forest Service land on Oct. 25, 2003, when a lost hunter set two illegal signal fires.
Fifteen people were killed over the next several days. They included a teacher, a nurse and a 17-year-old girl — all from Lakeside. A firefighter died while trying to protect a house near Julian. Out in East County, where I serve as county supervisor, we still remember them and mourn their loss.
The Cedar Fire and the other catastrophic blazes that hit our region in 2003, followed by another crushing wave in the fall of 2007, reminded us that wildfire isn't just a backcountry problem. It also can strike deep in our cities under the cruelest of conditions.
As the Cedar Fire unfolded, I remember standing on the bed of a pickup truck in the tight-knit community of Crest and using a bullhorn to speak to a gathering of residents. Many had lost their homes and I saw the pain on their faces.
I told them that while the devastation was great, so was our will to bounce back. We will rebuild, I told them. We will become stronger and make sure our region is better protected from the year-round threat of wildfire.
The county of San Diego continues to do all it can to deliver on that promise.
Since 2003, it has spent more than $285 million on fire-protection initiatives. The bulk of it has been used to step up community readiness and to create a more nimble and cohesive firefighting force.
Often teaming up with Cal Fire and other agencies, the county has:
• Created the County Fire Authority in 2008 with the aim of consolidating a patchwork of rural fire agencies and to better coordinate wildfire protection across 1.5 million backcountry acres.
• Beefed up the region's firefighting arsenal by adding more than 70 engines and other vehicles, two firefighting/rescue helicopters and other equipment. The county also invested $22 million to improve the regional communications system.
• Ensured around-the-clock fire and emergency services coverage at 54 backcountry fire stations. The Fire Authority is addressing seasonal staffing gaps at a few of the outposts.
• Expanded and upgraded its emergency operations center in Kearny Mesa. The earthquake-hardened facility is the nerve center for local, state and federal agencies during a disaster.
• Created a reverse 911 telephone system to alert homeowners and others of evacuations. Supervisor Greg Cox spearheaded the project.
• Stepped up enforcement of defensible-space rules around homes in unincorporated areas. The county and Cal Fire works with homeowners to keep dry brush and other fire hazards at least 100 feet from their homes.

'Uncharted,' 'LittleBigPlanet' coming to PS4
Wednesday - 6/11/2014, 12:16am EDT
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Sony Corp. announced Monday that it's bringing new installments of the popular video-game franchises "Uncharted" and "LittleBigPlanet" to the PlayStation 4 as it celebrated the 6-month-old game console's marketplace triumph.
Sony also premiered "Abzu," an undersea odyssey from the creators of the award-winning "Journey" and "Entwined," a psychedelic 3-D flying game. And it showed new highlights from the steampunk thriller "The Order: 1886" during its annual presentation at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles.
On the hardware side, the company said it will bring PlayStation TV, its video- and game-streaming device, to North America and Europe this fall. The $99 device lets users stream video, older PlayStation titles and games for Sony's hand-held Vita system to any TV. The "micro-console," which debuted in November in Japan as PSVita TV, also lets PlayStation 4 players send the action to a second TV.
On July 31, Sony will launch the open beta of its cloud-based PlayStation Now service, which will allow players to stream classic games from Sony's older consoles onto newer devices such as the PS4, the hand-held Vita, Xperia cellphones and Bravia TVs.
Sony is also demonstrating Project Morpheus, its virtual reality headset, at E3. That project, however, won't be available to consumers for at least another year.
Sony has led Microsoft Corp. since both companies began selling their latest consoles in November. Sony has sold 7 million PlayStation 4 consoles to Microsoft's 5 million Xbox One units. However, both companies have outpaced the sales of their predecessor consoles -- the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 -- during the same amount of time. And Sony's lead is far from insurmountable.
That makes exclusive titles like the just-announced "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" and "LittleBigPlanet 3" more important. But one much-hyped PS4 exclusive, the racing game "DriveClub," was conspicuously absent at this year's E3 presentation. Many of the games Sony showcased Monday -- including Ubisoft's "Far Cry 4," Warner Bros.' "Batman: Arkham Knight" and Deep Silver's "Dead Island 2" -- will also be available on the Xbox One, although Sony promised exclusive content or early beta access for each.
One exclusive that will appeal to comic book fans: A live-action drama based on Brian Michael Bendis' popular series "Powers" will begin airing on Sony's PlayStation Network in December.

The federal government should not be chiefly responsible for providing relief following disasters, said Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla. "Oklahoma's done a great job. We had a rainy day fund, we took money from that," Coburn said. "We've had a great response from private money being donated and just the public as a whole pitching in."

Rogue isn't magical... she'd win.

Besides Black Alice wins, she can steal any magic characters powers. If they are not in the vicinity she would get powers from any one of the magic based characters in the DC Universe and they are all pretty powerful.
This is actually an interesting fight. Against any magic-based character, basically Black Alice wins - it's not even a contest. Against a non-magic character, she still has access to steal any magic user's powers. However, against Rogue? If Rogue is able to manage to touch her, then she'd have Black Alice's powers plus her own.
Overall, I'd give it a slight edge to Black Alice, but Rogue can very well quickly turn this around and win.
I think Rogue stealing her powers would depend on whether or not Black Alice is truly a magic user, or a meta-human that just has the ability to steal magic users powers -- and then Rogue would be stealing her direct power. I don't know a whole lot about BA, but she's got three threads I have found so far on page 1...she seems pretty powerful.

Alice's power is to steal magical powers from other magical beings. If Rogue has no magic, then Alice is still a normal human. However, Rogue has still got that siphon touch that can render someone incapacitated or dead, right? So it should be safe to say Rogue wins.

Black Alice wins. If I recall doesn't Rogue have problems absorbing a magic users powers?
Rogue can absorbmagical abilities pretty easily. She absorbed the Advesary's mystical abilities and juggernaut's as well.
Alice does not need to be anywhere near a magic user to steal their powers. Rogue's powers depend on contact. There are plenty of magic users whose powers Alice can steal or has already stolen (like Dr. Fate, Zatanna, Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, Etrigan, Nightshade and so on) and then use those powers to defeat Rogue before she even gets close.
Much as I hate to admit it, Black Alice will win this. Lori (Black Alice's real name) can steal powers from ANY magical being. If there's no magical being around, she steals from a random magical being. She's stolen powers of Wonder Woman when Wonder Woman wasnt even around. Same for Captain Marvel, Zatanna, and Dr. Fate. And she's stolen powers from Dr. Fate and Zatanna so often that she's gotten pretty good at using their powers. And people like Wonder Woman have powers which are not particularly difficult to understand.
God help Rogue if Black Alice was to steal Spectre's powers or Juggernaut (Juggernaut being someone Rogue's been unable to siphon the power away from, and Spectre being someone who could kill Rogue with a snap of his fingers)
Black Alice is ridiculously overpowered. Rogue would not stand a chance. Unfortunately. Because I really prefer Rogue.

Oahu HotelsAt the heart of the Hawaiian Islands, Oahu is home to the capital of Honolulu as well as many of the major business and government buildings. However, just outside the city you'll enjoy the kind of landscapes you associate with Hawaii, and will find the long stretches of golden beaches, golf courses, and exclusive resorts that draw people to the islands year after year. Away from the coastal areas there are also several state parks and lush green forest areas, allowing you to explore and spot exotic species that make their home on the island. Things to seeThose traveling with family will find a trip to Honolulu Zoo essential, and here you can walk down winding trails and see animals enjoying their natural habitat, with creatures from bright pink flamingos to gentle giraffes on display. The Ala Moana Beach Park has over 100 acres of golden sandy beach sitting on the edge of turquoise blue seas, as well as parkland with spectacular sea views and the high rise buildings of Honolulu in the background. Waimea Bay Beach Park in the north of the island is a rockier stretch of coast which is a lot less busy than those around the capital, and here you'll see surfers on their colorful boards trying to catch a wave, as well as snorkelers enjoying the clear waters and coral reefs. The Hawaii Convention Center has dramatic jagged peaks and a modern steel and glass structure that's partially hidden by the surrounding palm trees. This bright and airy center welcomes business travelers from around the world, and has a wide range of facilities available from theaters with audiovisual equipment, to space for networking and social events.Hotels in OahuWhen you're looking for hotels in Oahu you'll be sure to have plenty of choice, from budget chain hotels to luxurious beach resorts. Most visitors to the island are seeking clean and comfortable accommodation, and mid-range hotels often have facilities such as outdoor pools, coffee shops, fitness centers, free self parking, restaurants, bars, and nightclubs. Your guestroom will also have plenty of extras to help you settle in, whether you're here for a business or a leisure trip, and you'll enjoy amenities such as coffee makers, air conditioning, televisions with premium channels and pay movies, free WiFi, refrigerators, and microwaves. Where to stayHonolulu is the busy center of the island, with glimmering modern skyscrapers overlooking the clear blue seas. Here you'll find the headquarters of major corporations and banks, as well as conference facilities for international visitors. However, it's not all business, and you'll find plenty of enjoyable outdoor spaces including a charming waterfront area where you'll see giant cruise ships coming in to dock for the day. Ko Olina to the west of Oahu is the perfect spot to escape, with golf courses, luxurious beach resorts, and upmarket facilities that have an isolated and exclusive feel. How to get to OahuHonolulu International Airport is just a few miles north of the city and has plenty of flights arriving from major cities across the USA. There are buses that run around the island, but if you're traveling with luggage then you might find it easier to rent a car or book one of the many taxis or shuttle services. Another popular way to arrive on the island is via cruise ship, with many of them docking in Honolulu just a short walk from the city. There are also regular ferries between Oahu and Maui, allowing you to enjoy island hopping around Hawaii.

Aquino declares war on illegal firecrackers
MANILA, Philippines—Ahead of the New Year revelry, President Aquino ordered police officials, on Sunday, to throw the book at revelers exploding banned firecrackers and shut down shops selling these contraband for good.
The President specifically reminded Philippine National Police Director General Allan Purisima to highlight the charges filed against violators of Republic Act 7183 and the penalties meted out to them to show the government's "seriousness.''
But Mr. Aquino indicated that apart from charging revelers with violation of RA 7183, which regulates the sale, manufacture, distribution and use of firecrackers and pyrotechnics, the PNP should explore filing charges of damage to property if the firecrackers became destructive.
During PowerPoint presentations by different agencies on their preparations for New Year, Mr. Aquino had been particularly struck by the image of a huge 16-inch by 16-inch triangular firecracker, called "Goodbye Philippines.''
He wondered if that powerful cracker could damage concrete roads, and Purisima said yes.
"We should then explore [the charge] of damage to public property,'' Mr. Aquino said, pointing out that the Department of Justice should have been present at the briefing.
After being told this was seized from a store in Bulacan, the firecrackers' manufacturing capital, without a permit, the President ordered local government officials to take the concerned local government unit to task for this. "Why was something like this allowed to happen?'' he said.
What came as a surprise was the finding by the Department of Health that piccolo was the source of injuries of 59 percent of children. Piccolo sells P10 to P15 a box. While they're labeled as manufactured in Bulacan, they were smuggled in from China, officials said.
"Fifty-nine percent of children are getting injured because of this brand. It's called piccolo. It's considered banned because it's actually imported,'' Health Undersecretary Teodoro Herbosa said in his presentation.
"As you can see, it's `Made in Bulacan'. We don't have something `Made in Bulacan', it's [supposed to be] Made in the Philippines. So this actually comes from China and so this is actually smuggled in and it's sold in the streets for P15—about P10 to P15 pesos for 20 sticks,'' he added.
The President wondered how children could "surreptitiously'' buy them despite a ban.
Since Dec. 21 onwards, the Department of Health has received reports of 171 cases of fire-work related injury. "We're going lower than the previous year. But we cannot give a final (conclusion) until after Jan. 5. But it's like it has plateaued already,'' Herbosa said.
The President also made clear to Purisima that manufacturers, retailers and dealers of banned firecrackers should be made to pay, not only through the closure of their shops but also through the revocation of their permits.
He asked: "Is there permanent banning from engaging in this business again if you sell all the banned items?'' He observed that the penalty of six to 12 months' imprisonment or a fine of P20,000 to P30,000 or both was "very low.''
Purisima replied: "…(A)ctually we can confiscate everything, and close the shop. That's the order I've given the regional directors.''
When Mr. Aquino pressed if this meant that the shop would not be reopened, the PNP chief said that their permits would be revoked. And just to be sure, Mr. Aquino said the PNP should inform local government units of their action against these violators to prevent the issuance of new permits under a different name.
Mr. Aquino also instructed Purisima to highlight the cases filed against violators and the status of these cases in the media.
"What's important in the post-New Year's event. There should be publicity of all the cases that had been filed, and status. We have to show we're serious especially against indiscriminate firing of guns and explosion of firecrackers,'' he said. "We have to show some are punished. We can't call a time-out here where anyone can violate the law at around 11 p.m.''
He said the campaign against firecrackers should begin by the last quarter of the year.
The President expressed disbelief at PNP data showing that shops were shut down only in one province, while the rest seemed to have complied with the law.
"I think Allan, our counter-intelligence should be vetting all these regions also,'' he said, addressing Purisima. "I think you should call up everybody once again and tell them, `I just noticed that there were many inspections, and yet we have piccolo…' If they didn't actually do these inspections, that's one-strike.''
So far, government hospitals have sufficient stocks of medicines for injuries during celebrations welcoming the New Year.
The President also instructed Local Government officials to share with the other LGUs the wisdom of ordinances adopted by Quezon City and Davao City banning firecrackers, sharply cutting down the sale of firecrackers and cases of injuries.
The President's message was to "put a stop to the manufacture, transport and sale on the prohibited ones,'' Secretary to the Cabinet Rene Almendras said.
"We'll know when the numbers come out on Jan. 5,'' Almendras said on whether Mr. Aquino was satisfied with the measures of the different agencies.
"If the numbers will be better than last year then, good; if it's not, then there's nothing we can do of it. You know, what we need to do is to make sure it's gonna be lower in the future years. So we must learn from the experience. The President called this meeting because he wanted to emphasize that he's quite serious about these things,'' he added.
A proposal from Maj. Renato Marcial of the Bureau of Fire and Protection for a total ban on firecrackers, a major cause of fire, would be discussed, Almendras said. Fire officials are also discouraging the use of sky lanterns.

Don't Separate Marketing from Strategy!
By Michelle Golden - A cool marketing blog, Unconventional Thinking, makes a fantastic point about separation of "marketing" from a company's strategies and operations. The post is called The Most Dangerous Term In Business and that term is "marketing department."
Never mind that most marketing actually sucks and fails to stay focused on those key goals. There is another equally ominous danger here. That is, establishing a marketing department effectively balkanizes marketing ideation and implementation from the development and execution of the company's core business strategy. This cannot be allowed to happen. Marketing is the process of growing a business. To separate it from the development and execution of business strategy means that you are effectively diminishing the impact marketing can have on the company.
I see this soooooo often. Some firms struggle to understand my frustration at their approaches to strategic planning that are many steps removed from their marketing professionals. I've even had a law partner tell me that "marketing has nothing to do with strategic planning." HUH??
Mark continues:
You know how it goes: the top people in the company, be it the president or a management team, develops a plan for how they want to grow the business, and once that is set in stone, they turn to the marketing folks (some think of them as marketing flakes, which they often deserve, because they do not force themselves into the business-building process). The tools and initiatives required to grow the company have to get force-fed into a strategy that has already been signed, sealed and delivered by the powers that be. What an idiotic mistake.
What to do about it? Mark's first three suggestions:
- Stop allowing your marketing people to be balkanized into a department.
- Instead, make the marketing people part of the management team.
- Weave the marketing people through all of the company's processes from the beginning
His whole post, and the comments, are worth a read. (And if you're a marketer, don't let yourself be a "marketing flake"!!)

Chrysler is recalling certain model year 2009-2010, Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota trucks, manufactured from July 1, 2009, through November 30, 2009, because a rear axle pinion nut may loosen due to a lack of adhesive.
If the rear axle pinion nut loosens, the axle can lock up and cause a loss of vehicle control and/or a vehicle crash with little warning.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will install a pinion nut retainer, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in November 2012. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753.
Chrysler's recall campaign number is M34. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
I see that the NHTSA National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety had to get involved, for it be called a Safety issue
It is about time !!
Fantastic. A big issue that is finally getting taken care of. Going to walk outside and have a look at my build date just because I'm curious...
Edit: My build date is 07/09. Hmm...
Glad this is finally being taken care of. I can rest a bit easier now since my Build date was March 19 2010. I checked and there is no recall listed against my VIN for this issue. You guys with that build date range should see it come up when checked against your VINs. Here is the link to check. https://www.moparownercenter.com/oc/...nersLogin.aspx
Looks like I'm part of the recall.
11/09 here. :sad:
Do not take this lightly. There is not much of a warning before it happens. I think the recall is to little to late. Especially since I am stuck with paying for a rental vehicle.
We both share the same Build date...:4-dontknow:
so i checked my build date. 05-10 so i guess im outside of the recall. and i never hit on the recall when i entered my VIN.
hopefully they put in this pinion nut retainer when they replaced my rear end...
