What styles have you taken I've seen a post of yours before about gung fu. I've taken Wing Chun, Praying Mantis, Tai Chi, and Five Animal shaolin.

Nice, any reason not to spend $30 more on the AOC 24"? No link to check reviews but seems like a great price for the size. Did the ad give any more info on it or does anyone know how to convert to the non-OM part number?
I am assuming it is one of these two:
Original Poster
I added model numbers to the non-linked ones that had models posted. I also corrected the Acer 21.5" (I had it as Gateway accidentally). Lastly, I added instructions for seeing the ad yourself.

Drove to a store that showed limited availability. The cashier located one for me, but the price was $159.88 when scaned. I was told that price was for online only. You only can buy online with that price and pick up at store. But I still couldn't figure out a way to do this online. The website also shows $159.88. S*ck!
I was surprised that it had built in speakers, took HDMI, and had a USB hub too. All in all, a nice monitor and definitely a slick deal for $101 (including tax, etc.)
According to the person at the store I was at, there was one of the smaller monitors in stock at another store nearby. So, while definitely a YMMV deal, it was possible to get it with a little luck and good timing.
So, again, thanks for posting the YMMV deal. They're really my favorite ones, because they're usually the best discounts. More, thanks for including all the details, it made scoring the deal a lot easier.
Sure, every so often there are incredible great deals, but for a deal to be slick or hot it doesn't have to be a once in a blue moon thing, it just has to be a really good price for what it is, and likely to still be a really good price within the next month or two.
No one really gives a <beep> that there was a decent 27" 1080p Insignia TV for $99 on Black Friday 2012 at Best Buy (that made a nice Xmas gift to a friend of mine), all folks want to know is, "is this a good/great/amazing price for what it is today, and will it still be a good/great/amazing price compared to what I'm likely to pay if I take my time and wait a few weeks".
So, it's great that there was a 1080p IPS for $100 a week ago. It only MATTERS if there's a decent chance of there being a 1080p IPS for $100 next week or next month. Because, I dunno about you, but the rest of us can't time travel. (and AFAIK chances are pretty slim that I'll be able to score a $100 IPS in the next 30 days)

Putting the 'public' in Public Service
Monday - 4/12/2010, 4:00pm EDT
April 16, 2010 -- This week on FedTalk, host Bill Bransford will be joined by Amin Cyntje of the Partnership for Public Service and Kirke Harper, chair of the Public Employees Roundtable, to discuss Public Service Recognition Week (PSRW) 2010.
PSRW is a nationwide event to honor federal, state and local government employees and to educate the general public about public service.
From exhibitions by various federal agencies and military installations to learning about how to get a government job, to writing letters to service members overseas, many levels of the government will be on display and will offer people an inside look at what it means to be a public servant.
This year, PSRW will be May 3 - 9 and various activities will be held around the country and on the National Mall.
FEDtalk's guests will discuss the PSRW 2010 theme -- Innovation & Opportunity -- and the events that are open to the public.

Director Merchandise : cds
Since their irresistible bid for notice on the Dublin rock circuit in 2005, Director's crafted, intelligent guitar music has stood them apart from the usual suspects.
The band's genesis saw three Malahide college entrants, guitarist Aherne, bassist Averill and frontman Moloney, playing together, sharing an aesthetic and with a few songs already starting to form. They began to take the operation seriously, assuming roles and casting around for a drummer to complete the outfit. Moloney, while studying for his degree in music, made the acquaintance of just such a drummer, classmate Lawlor, whose interests were in harmony with those of the group. Director were complete. A year later, after an arresting sequence of live shows, amid growing popularity, Director recorded their debut record, We Thrive On Big Cities, for Atlantic Records.

Highlights from January 15 Wellness Wednesday
Principles of Wellness
- Make it Meaningful – Let your word or intention inspire your action, it's ok if meaningful wellness choices change from day to day.
- Easy Does It – Keep it simple! Don't try and too much too fast, that leads to burnout, disappointment and backsliding.
- Progress Not Perfection – Wellness is an evolution. Be "ok" with where you are today while also making choices that will serve your future health on all levels.
- Daily Improvement – Each day ask, "What one, small action, action can I take today to promote my wellness?" There's no need to make it more complicated than that!
Expand Your Horizons – Get in touch with the big picture
- Wake and rise early, preferably with the sun
- Look out the window, see the world
Clear, Hydrate and Protect
- Urinate and defecate upon arising
- Scrape your tongue, brush your teeth
- Drink 2 – 3 cups of hot water before any coffee or tea, add lemon for taste or alkalinity if desired – this will help you feel revived, aid in pooping, and cleanse your palate to help you make better food choices throughout your day
- Appy oil inside your nostrils and ears – olive, seasame, coconut, almond, whatever's on hand – create a barrier against overstimulation, keep your breath flowing smoothly through your nose
Set the Tone
- Read something inspiring – poetry, a daily reader, the comics. Avoid the news, email and television or radio until you've had a chance to do the above
- Make a gratitude list – try for 3 – 5 things
Flow with Prana
- Move, Breathe and/ or meditate for at least 5 minutes – Check out this demonstration from Melinda!
Feed Yourself Well
- Have green energy with breakfast: a green smoothie, greens in your eggs, add sprouts to oatmeal, get creative
Start Small. Pick one thing on this list you can easily incorporate this week. (I suggest the bit about hot water Once that feels in place, add in another the following week or the week after. Don't try and revamp your routine all at once.
As an added bonus, I made you a video of the 5 Minutes to Fantastic movement routine. It's sure to leave you feeling refreshed, vibrant and more at ease. I'm challening myself to do this one everyday. Join me won't you?

In 1995 Philips and Sony introduced a new type of disc, known as a digital videodisc (DVD), which was able to store up to 4.7 gigabytes of data, such as high-definition digital video files. A DVD has the same dimensions as a standard CD but cannot be read by a standard CD player, although a DVD player can read standard CDs. DVD players use a higher-power red laser (0.65 micrometre) that enables smaller pits (0.4 micrometre) and separation tracks (0.74 micrometre) to be used (see figure).

As part of the PlayStation 2013 event unveiling the PlayStation 4 (at least partially) an entire menu of games was shown complete with demos and introductions by people working on the various titles. Of all the major announcements, none stood taller than Activision and Bungie's Destiny. It will be on PlayStation 4 –although it likely won't be exclusively because Activision is more greedy than stupid– and should be arriving fairly early in the new system's life cycle. All of that touchpad, share-buttoning stuff you'll be doing on the Dualshock 4 will mean a lot more when it's coming by way of an actual game that means something to you like Destiny. That's what all of this hoopla is ultimately about: the games you love in your hands. Watch this presentation clip that includes fresh new footage of Destiny.

Federation Mission - You won't be borg (1/2)
Author: diogene0
Allegiance: Federation
Project ID: ST-HDAZOK9BJ
----------Report Start Part 2-----------
Surplus Depot Z16:
This is a nice map design with several very tough battles. The story dialogue is well written. I noted a couple of items to consider changing:
-The initial dialogue; consider changing "This room is clear of borg presence" to read "This room is clear of Borg".
-Consider changing "We may get access to what?s left of internal sensors systems, I see a secondary computer access here" to read "I see a computer console near the door. We may be able to access internal sensors there".
-Consider changing the mission task "Check internal sensors reading" to read "Check internal sensor readings".
-The post "Check internal sensors reading" dialogue; consider changing "We can?t access to the sensors of the station from this console, [Rank]" to read "This console is unable to access internal sensors, [Rank]"
-Consider striking the line "The assimilation room".
-Consider changing "People crying for help, desperately, and the borg doing their dirty job" to read "There are people crying for help in the room just down the hall. The Borg are assimilating them".
-Consider changing "We have to save those people, sir, They are starfleet. They are people, flesh and blood, not machines" to read "We have to save those people, they are people, flesh and blood, not machines".
-Consider changing "[MissionInfo]Clear the way to the command center, and rescue the starfleet officers stuck in the assimilation room[/MissionInfo]" to read "[MissionInfo]Clear the way to the command center, and rescue the Starfleet officers being assimilated[/MissionInfo]".
-The approach the "assimilation room" dialogue; consider changing "Sir, I feel sick, let?s do that quickly so that we can leave this horror as soon as possible" to read "Sir, let?s stop the Borg from assimilating these people".
-Plot point; there is no mention in the dialogue of "Hacking Borg nodes" but there is a mission task directing the player to do so. Consider adding dialogue to the initial dialogue that mentions accessing the Borg nodes.
-Consider changing the mission task "Hack borg nodes to get acess to the command center" to read "Hack Borg nodes to get access to the command center"
-The battles need to be better balanced. There are too many high level enemy mobs on the entire map. I got killed 5 times before I was able to beat down one group in the "assimilation room". It is difficult on Normal and would most likely be impossible on Elite.
-Consider changing the interaction button "Hack borg node" to read "Hack Borg node" throughout the map.
-Consider changing "Does some starfleet officers still fight here ?" to read "Are there still Starfleet personnel fighting here?".
-Consider changing "Now, we should be able to access to the sensors of the station in the command center" to read "Now we should be able to access the sensors from the command center".
-Consider changing "I hope we won?t have to fight any longer, the team looks a bit exhausted" to read "The team is exhausted, we need to finish off these Borg".
-The post "Collect dada" dialogue; consider changing "The main computer memory bank was damaged during the borg attack, [Rank]" to read "The connection to the computer?s main memory bank was damaged during the Borg attack, [Rank]".
-Consider changing "We only have an access to secondary systems" to read "Only secondary systems are available".
-Consider changing "We need to fix it" to read "We?ll need to fix the connection to access the sensor data".
-Consider changing the response button "No other option ?" to read "No other option?".
-Plot point; following the above response button from the player, which asks the question "No other option?" there is no further dialogue responding to the player. That seems odd. Consider having the science BOFF say "I?m afraid not, [Rank]".
-Consider changing "Phaser blasts, hurry up !" to read "Phaser blasts, hurry up!"
-Plot point; the line "Phaser blasts, hurry up" causes the player to run down the ramp and into a force field preventing them from assisting the Starfleet personnel fighting the Borg in the room. There is no indication of lowering the force field by hacking the nodes, which leaves the player to figure that out by reading the mission tasks. Consider adding dialogue to the "Phaser blasts, hurry up" dialogue that indicates the need to hack the Borg force field controls.
-Consider rotating the nodes on the left side of the passageway so they face in like the other nodes on the right side.
-The post "Attempt to lower the forcefield" dialogue; consider changing the response button "We can?t be responsible for every death happening" to read "We cannot prevent every death".
-The "We have a mission" response button dialogue; consider changing "Yes sir ! Memory banks first, sir !" to read "Yes sir! Restore the memory banks first, sir!".
-Consider changing the response button "Irony ? Millions of lives may be at stake" to read "Irony? There may be millions of lives at stake".
-The "We can?t be responsible" response button dialogue; consider changing "Understood. But I still feel bad when our fellow officers die for no reason" to read "Yes sir, but it feels as if they all died in vain".
-Consider changing the response button "We may save many more people ifwe focus on our job" to read "We will save many more lives if we focus on the task at hand".
-Consider moving the "Collect sensor data" console to the left. Part of the console is sticking through a bulkhead support strut.
-The post "Collect sensor data" dialogue; consider changing "Now, we can have a better insight on the current situation" to read "This data should give us better insight on the current situation".
-Consider changing "The chronometric particles we noticed are a clue about the reasons of this invasion" to read "The chronometric particles we detected earlier may be a clue to what is behind this invasion".
-Consider changing "The particles indicate that several ships were sent to the 24th century" to read "Based on sensor readings it appears the Borg sent several ships back in time to the 24th century".
-Consider changing "This would explain many things. Why would the borgs want old federation ships. And why did they left some troops here. This was a decoy, we lost time, sir" to read "This explains why the Borg wanted old Federation ships. Also the Borg forces we encountered here were intended to delay us, and they have succeeded".
-Consider changing "I know your rank, [Rank], and you could try to stop them at once, but it may be time to contact starfleet command" to read "[Rank], we need to notify Starfleet command immediately".
-Consider changing "[OOC]You may want to play[/OOC]" to read "[OOC]The adventure continues in[/OOC]".
-Consider changing "[OOC]Thanks for playing this mission ![/OOC]" to read "[OOC]Thanks for playing this mission![/OOC]".
---------End Report Part 2----------
Thanks again for authoring and for giving me the chance to review your work. You did a good job with the development of this mission. With some tweaking of the dialogue and adjusting the battles a little this will be a great mission. I look forward to evaluating your next mission in this series as I want to see what happens next.

Installing plywood over concrete
I am installing self-stick tile in my basement. I have carpet on one side of the room. I need to raise the level on the tile side so it is at the same level as the carpet side with it's thick pad. My question is this: can i put down a plywood sub-floor w/out the hassle os a concrete drill? Is it a bad idea to just use adhesive?
Have you had a moisture test done on the floor?
You have three bad things to deal with, wood should not be in contact with a concrete floor unless it's pressure treated, it would need to be attached to the floor and trying to use peel and stick tiles.
Peel and stick is the lowest of the low grade tiles, the color does not go all the way through, near impossible to lay them in a streight line because they try to stick to fast and can not be adjusted once they hit the floor, there's gong to be some that will just not stay stuck down.
What would work is real tile.
No moisture test. Sadly, I'm trying to do a cheap fix-up before i sell the house. Not sure how to match up the 2 sides of the room without putting some kind of sub-floor down.
Peel and stick tiles are not usually square either and tend to shrink after installation. And as Joe says, wood on concrete is a bad idea.
BTW, as an aside, never use pressure treated ply or lumber indoors.

Local Schools on Soft Lockdown
Eastern Pulaski Schools and the Culver Community School Corporation are under a soft lockdown.
Eastern Pulaski School Superintendent Dan Foster told WKVI News that an individual in the community had threatened to harm himself. Foster said that the school is simply taking a precaution where all of the doors have been locked at all of the buildings. Students will not be leaving the buildings for recess or any student aid projects.
It was a general threat and not a specific threat to the school or any students or staff at the school, according to Foster. Foster stated that it was a safety precaution.

Which implant is better? Mentor, Natrelle or Sientra (silicone)
Also, natrelle has more options for shape and their silicone is also more cohesive that mentor. Is that correct? The two main surgeons I'm thinking of having my surgery with each use one or the other, but the surgeons are in the same circle. Just would like some more info on the brands. So which one so you think is better and what would you recommend?

Which implant is better? Mentor, Natrelle or Sientra (silicone)
All three companies are reputable with good products (similar characteristics and warranties). Every patient's anatomy and goals are different; each patient may benefit from the use of a specific size/profile of breast implant. Therefore, in my practice, I have consignments of all 3 different breast implant manufacturers available in the operating room. Ultimately, more important than the specific breast implant company utilized will be careful selection of your plastic surgeon. Careful preoperative communication, careful intraoperative sizing ( including the use of temporary sizers and dimensional planning/measurements) and careful execution of the procedure will be key. I hope this, and the attached link, helps. Best wishes with your upcoming surgery.

The Best Breast Implant
Different plastic surgeons may have their favorite breast implant brand, but the most important factor in selecting a surgeon for breast augmentation is not the brand of the implant, but the care, expertise, education and talent of the plastic surgeon performing the procedure.
Web reference: http://www.michaellawmd.com/breast-augmentation_breast_implants.html
Differences in silicone implants?
Mentor, Natrelle or Sientra implants?
More important than the name of the implant is your choice of an experienced, caring, artistic plastic surgeon as well as the choice of the proper size and dimensions of the implant for your particular anatomy.
Following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you what type or size of implants to use without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure and each type of implant would not be in your best interest. I would suggest that you find a surgeon certified by the American Board of American Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.
Robert Singer, M.D., FACS
La Jolla, California
Implant brand
All 3 are good brands that have passed US (FDA) requirements. All have a wide variety of shapes to fit your typical volume and breast width requirement. Frequently, implant manufactures will offer promotional discounts in order to influence selection. If your board certified plastic surgeon is more comfortable with one implant over the other, than I would go with their recommendation.
Best of luck

By Barbara Holden Starting kindergarten can be an emotional time for the entire family. Parents' eyes filled with tears, beaming at how big and exciting this kindergarten milestone is; meanwhile, that little kindergartner of yours is a nervous wreck.

A good, understated restaurant. A mediocre façade hides great decor and atmosphere inside. Food, of the asian variety, was quite good, and the martinis were excellent, which is almost all that i can remember. I recommend getting reservations.

it's outside decor isn't much to look at, but the inside is quite the opposite of what you might expect to find. it's trendy tropical, yet casual and fun. the food, like the previous reviewer stated, isn't anything over the top or fancy, but still good. sushi is a bit pricey. a good place for groups. came during the week for a birthday party get-together, and it wasn't too loud and just the nice relaxing type of ambiance i was looking for.
comes with a little spicy kick. the tuna itself was seared a tad too much (the edges were tough from being cooked too long), but i was starving so i couldn't complain too much. the fries were medium-thin, fresh, and tasty. i'd probably order this burger again since i'm a sucker for ahi tuna in general.
a nice variety of deep-fried pupus to share with 4 or more people aplenty. comes w/a fun mix of dipping sauces.

The food here is pretty good. Nothing too crazy, extravagant, or out of the ordinary… pretty standard stuff.
I recommend coming by for Happy Hour. Large Kirin beers and lots of sushi for not a lot of $$. Great service. Always consistently good. And a perfect location around the corner from my office. :)
It can get a tad crowded on weekend nights… especially when the cool kids come down to eat and James Beach is packed.

Let's say that $A$ is a subset of $B$ and be is a subset of a set $S$ of $n$ elements.
How big is the set $\{(A,B)\}$ then.
Let's say that $A$ is a subset of $B$ and be is a subset of a set $S$ of $n$ elements.
How big is the set $\{(A,B)\}$ then.
Assuming $A \neq B$, then there are exactly two elements in $\{A, B\}$, elements which happen to be sets $A, B$. Hence, the cardinality of $\{A,\,B\}$ is $2$. I.e., $|\{A, \,B\}| =2.$ Else, we can only say $|\{A, \,B\}| \leq 2$.
The set $\{(A, B)\}$ has one element, (cardinality 1), which happens to be an ordered pair of sets.
The information about the relation between sets $A, B,$ and between $B, S$ and the elements of $S$ is irrelevant: that information is what they call a "red herring."
The set $\{A,B\}$ has at most two elements, and if $A\neq B$ then it has exactly two.
The set $\{(A,B)\}$ has exactly one element, the ordered pair $(A,B)$.
Perhaps you are asking to find $|N|$ where $N = \{(A, B) \mid A \subseteq B \subseteq S, |S| = n\}$ for some integer $n$.
To solve this, let's first fix some $B_0$ and let $m = |B_0|$. Then the number of subsets of $B$ is just $2^m$. Clearly, $0 \leq m \leq n$. So $|N| = \sum_{i=0}^{n}{2^i}=2^{n+1}-1$
It depends on whether you mean the set in the title of your question, or the set in the question itself.
As $A \subseteq B \subseteq S$, $A$ and $B$ are elements of $\mathcal{P}(S)$, the power set of $S$. So $\{A, B\} \subseteq \mathcal{P}(S)$. This set has cardinality two, unless (as Chris Eagle pointed out in a comment on another answer) $A = B$, in which case $\{A, B\} = \{A\}$ which has cardinality one.
The notation $(\cdot, \cdot)$ is used to denote an ordered pair, which is an element of the cartesian product of two sets. Again, $A, B \in \mathcal{P}(S)$, so $(A, B) \in \mathcal{P}(S)\times\mathcal{P}(S)$, hence $\{(A, B)\} \subseteq \mathcal{P}(S)\times\mathcal{P}(S)$. In particular, $\{(A, B)\} \neq \{A, B\}$. The former set has cardinality one, regardless of whether or not $A = B$.

History is Local
Historic Greene County, Illinois is coming alive with people, places, and objects from the past during the annual James J Eldred House Fall Festival. The Festival will be held the weekend after Labor Day, September 11-12-13, 2015 at the James J Eldred House Historic Site with other special events at area locations.
Joe Minch, a civil war ship builder, was fresh to Greene County and looking for work when he was offered a job building a barn. Legend says that he built it the only way that he knew how, with porthole windows. His payment? The tools he later used to build his barns and his folk art legacy.
Haunted Tours
Join American Hauntings & American Ghost Society rep Loren Hamilton for a ghostly event at the legendary Eldred House in Eldred, Illinois! This chilling night will include a real-life ghost hunt, late-night séance and investigation of Eldred House, spooky cellar & the surrounding grounds! The James Eldred House dates back to the 1820s, resting on land that was among the first to be occupied in Greene County. There have been at least four deaths in the house over the years and legend tells of a Native American who was buried on the property --- leading to ghost stories that are still being told today. Experience this historic location first-hand and see for yourself if there is truth to the rumors! All guests are required to sign a waiver before the ghost hunt and children under the age of 18 are not allowed! A Portion of the Proceeds go to the Restoration of the House! $40 Per Person for this chilling ghost hunt! Learn more at www.prairieghosts.com

The best way to keep your motivation and excitement for a first date is by taking initiative with whom we go out with. Too many online daters are guilty of being way too passive, letting the emails role in, and only responding to those that contact us first. This may be easier since we save tons of time performing searches and emailing, but it is the easiest way to fall into the trap of becoming a "serial dater."
As I mentioned in last month's column, wooing in a romantic relationship is apparently either on its way out, or has been out for a long, long time. But apparently that doesn't always mean that delaying sexual gratification is on its way out. It just means that wooing may have been replaced by a little something called "establishing a foundation of friendship." One difference – wooing generally originated from the man; the desire or request for the foundation of friendship invariably originates from the woman.
As somewhat of an expert when it comes to deciphering online profiles (yup, I can tell which guy will arrive late and expect to split the bill and which girl has very few interests outside of herself), here are a few tips to help you. And, some of these even apply to real-life dating!
There is a standard recipe for most dates when you meet someone online. First, you get a phone number. Second, you make the call. Third, you set up a casual first date. While some of us tend to get creative with our first date plans, most of us opt for something easier like meeting for drinks which is a smart and effective way to meet someone new for the first time. The great thing about meeting for drinks is that it won't cost you much, it allows you to relax when you may otherwise feel nervous, and it typically doesn't come with much implied pressure. With that said, you still need to be careful when it comes to choosing the right location for this date idea.
The Great Date contest has a winner and we think it just may be Beshert!
I wish I lived 200 years ago so I could woo a woman the way single men did back then. Who even uses the word "woo" anymore, much less knows what it means? Who even gives much thought at all to what they say to the opposite sex? Maybe Kanye West, but the rest of us – not so much. The media and the MTV generation and life's increasingly rapid pace have pretty much finished off traditional courtship, replacing "wooing" with "hitting on" or "coming on to" or "making your move." It's so sad. Where's the poetry? Where's the passion? Where's the heart? For many of us men, unfortunately, it's all in our pants. Okay, I'll speak for myself.
Brad Pitt, Matthew McConaughey, George Clooney; I'm sure you are all really nice people, and I mean that. However, you are making the online dating lives of men who want to get into serious relationships around the world much more difficult. I know it's not your fault; you're just acting the parts that were written for you. Still, the problem is that women see your movies and expect these hopeless romantic stories to become their reality.
A few months ago I wrote an article about using online dating sites like JDate to meet someone that might live (way) outside your zip code. It's not to say that the process is easy, many people won't even bother to have a conversation with someone who's not geographically desirable, but you'll come across the few who will — and the even fewer with which you'll have something in common. One conversation leads to another, you eventually meet in person, and your romance begins. So what happens if you do meet someone special?
Receiving the phone number of someone you met online is always an exciting thing. The prospect of a new date tends to bring a new excitement into our lives as we imagine all the possibilities that may arise. However, with every blessing comes a price. We may be excited about that first date on the horizon, but we also need to think about what to do on that first date!
According to a recent research study, three of the hardest things on the planet are diamonds, iron, and dating after divorce. After your divorce, you pretty much have to go back to school. You need to relearn how to love and trust, which is increasingly more difficult in our disposable-relationship society. Women know that if any man cannot provide what they want, the next man who can provide it could be just one JDate click away.

Aaron Ward's Devils/Bruins preview
|02.13.09 at 4:23 pm ET
WIth another playoff-style test against the big, punishing and physical New Jersey Devils tonight, here's a bit of a scouting report from veteran defenseman Aaron Ward headed into the tilt amidst the scenic marshlands of Jersey. The red-hot Devils have won eight of their last 10 games and will be looking to hop over the Washington Capitals into second place in the Eastern Conference.
New Jersey and their jumbo set of forwards will no doubt again play their grinding, crash the net brute style of hockey against a Bruins team looking to make their own statement after Tuesday's collapse against San Jose. With word that All-World goalie Martin Brodeur is close to returning after suffering a detached biceps muscle, the Devils are looking more and more like a pitchfork-wielding beast come playoff time.
Tonight should be a good preview of that.
Here's Ward's take on the game: "New Jersey is creeping on us right now. They've got the most momentum of any time in the Eastern Conference, and we have to help ourselves by stopping that momentum. I think they're similarly built to us. They're put together with the mindset that they're durable players that play with an edge. Smart players that play with discipline. We're looking at a team that in a lot of ways mirrors that kind of game that we're trying to play as well.
"If anything losing a guy (like Brodeur) can help a team because it raises the responsibility of everybody else on the team. You can't be relying on Brodeur and maybe some guys have had to step up and raise their defensive game with him out of the lineup. That's only going to help them once they get to the playoffs and help players round out of their overall game."

Kathleen Goodwin | November 12, 2003 | Comments
How a state agency's e-newsletter ranks.
Today we'll look at a different type of industry's newsletter program. In fact, not an industry at all, but a commonwealth government. Up for critique is Techlines, a communications program for the Commonwealth of Kentucky's Governor's Office of Technology. The goal for Kentucky's Public Information Officer, Scott, is to keep other government departments informed about how they use technology. His monthly newsletter has been a low-budget, one-man act for quite a while. But Kentucky just updated its Web site, Kentucky.gov. Scott's using this critique to help update his newsletter in accordance with the new site.
Techlines ranks 18 (see the scoring criteria), indicating room for improvement. Scott's newsletter is well received. Subscribers include government organizations outside the state, media outlets that cover government, Kentucky businesses, members of the public sector as well as many state employees. Later this month, Scott will receive an award from Kentucky's Association of Government Communicators for Techlines (he thinks the category may be effective yet "cheap" marketing!). Kudos, Scott. You're doing something right here!
Now, let's talk about how to make it better.
Strategy: Four Stars
From day one, Scott's strategy for Techlines was simple: The technology office's CIO wanted to convey to all other agencies how technology was used and to foster communication between the separate groups of technologists within government offices. Scott seems to be doing a good job here, so I gave him four stars. Each newsletter has four to six headlines about the Commonwealth's technology. They're linked to micropages containing the full stories. Scott creates extra value by adding stories that focus on technology and government on the national level.
List Segmentation: Two Stars
Because he's a one-man show, Scott hasn't been able to put effort into list segmentation. In the future, as Techlines is promoted via the new state Web site, it may be important to capture audience segment information (state agency/employee, Kentucky business, Kentucky resident, media, or other) so Scott can start versioning his newsletter. This will be effective when, for instance, there's a story that's important for state employees, but not for the media or public to read.
Content and Audience: Three Stars
Scott seems to have interesting articles, issue after issue, covering a variety of topics that appeal to each of his audience segments. September's issue offered an update on state employees' new email extensions, information on how technology helps traffic flow on Kentucky roads, recent awards, and work practice initiatives his office is taking. All in all, a nice blend.
Permission and Privacy: Four Stars
Techlines scores well here. There's a clear privacy and permission policy on the front page of the newsletter. The privacy policy could be flushed out more, but at least it's there!
Metrics: Two Stars
As with many other newsletter publishers, metrics fall to the bottom of Scott's priority list. The state can't afford a fancy tool, and the crunch of getting the monthly issue out leaves him with little time to view the results available through the rudimentary tools he does have. Bear in mind even the simplest measurements can provide insight into what draws readers into your newsletter. Scott indicates he's moving this up the priority list, especially as the newsletter will get more attention in the future.
Look and Feel: Three Stars
Due to the short execution time (I'm beginning to think lack of time is the number one saboteur of good newsletters!), Techlines layout suffers a bit. Scott and I discussed creating shorter, punchier headlines and a short synopsis for each story. This draws readers in and engages them in a full reading experience. I also suggested he move national headlines to a side column, or perhaps reduce the number of national stories he runs.
As I didn't have the opportunity to critique more newsletters individually, in December I'll do a collective review and cite good and maybe not-so-good examples. There are several best practices many publishers don't yet implement. We'll tackle these next month, too.

After a petition filed by an Amravati resident, the Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court has issued a notice to the Centre's principal secretary, union ministries for home and external affairs, and the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), asking them to give the clear reason of the death of the founder of the Indian National Army (INA) Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose.
The petition has been filed by Suresh Padhye, demanding a fresh investigation into the death of the freedom fighter, who coined the famous slogan "tum mujhe khoon do, main tumhe azadi doonga". A division bench comprising Justices Bhushan Gavai and Sunil Shukre has directed them to file a reply in four weeks.
Subhas Chandra Bose died on August 18, 1945, after the Japanese plane carrying him crashed in Japan-occupied Formosa (now Taiwan). However, many among his supporters, especially in Bengal, refused at the time, and have refused since, to believe either the fact or the circumstances of his death.
It is also believed by many that Bose had returned to India. Taking this into consideration, the central government had formed the Shahnawaz committee on April 5, 1956 to investigate Bose's death, in which Shahnawaz Khan had concluded that the freedom fighter died in the plane crash near Taihoku in Taiwan. On July 11, 1970, a single member commission of Shri GD Khosla, a retired chief justice of the Punjab High Court, was set up, but it also reached the same conclusion.
A petition was also filed in the Kolkata High Court, after which the court had directed to freshly investigate the matter. Following that, on May 14, 1999, the Justice Mukherjee commission was formed to inquire into the controversy surrounding the death of Bose. The commission went to Japan, Taiwan, Russia and England. But Mukherjee's findings, submitted on November 7, 2005, that Bose did not die in the plane crash were rejected by the government.

Narcissa Malfoy is a balanced person. She does not fly off the handle, she does not overreact.
But sometimes things happen. And sometimes people snap.

Their Affliction by Alice Mac
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 2]
Summary: Love - that's what Albus thinks sets us apart. The ability to love and the power that it gives you.
I disagree: I think it's hate. Hate is pure, fierce and unyielding. It courses through you like fire and invests you with its strength. Hate guards you from other people - it protects you. If all you feel is hate, you have nothing to lose. You are untouchable.
Love drains you. It forces you to care about others and their welfare and if they are harmed...well, then it brings grief, anguish and pain that rivals any curse. Love reels you in with its sweetness, comfort and passion and then destroys you with its absence. It is crueller than any curse. It is the Gryffindor affliction.

Whisper to the Dying Walls by hestiajones
Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 18]
Summary: Viktor is thankful for uniforms; they make it difficult for him to identify individuals while flying at breakneck speed. But right now, he has to shake her hand. He dreads it, and hates himself for dreading it, so he doesn't look into her eyes when their skin comes into contact, or when her fingers grip his a little more tightly than necessary.
This is hestiajones' seventh entry for the GH Cotillion Challenge. Thank you, Croll, for your support and ideas and jokes! I am not J.K. Rowling.
