The Bruins have drafted goalie Malcolm Subban with the No. 24 pick. Subban is the younger brother of Montreal defenseman P.K. Subban.
Malcolm Subban plays for Belleville of the OHL. In 39 games last year, Subban recorded a 2.50 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage. Subban had three shutouts. Younger brother Jordan Subban also plays for Belleville. (Globe)

(Hockey DB)
2009-10: Selected in the 11th round (218th overall) by Belleville in the 2009 OHL Priority Draft, Subban appeared in one game with the Bulls, and played in two junior games with the CCHL's Toronto Junior Canadiens – spending most of the season with the Mississauga Reps. The Reps captured the GTHL championship and reached the final game of the 2010 Telus Cup (Canada's midget AAA hockey championship). Subban recorded two saves in 13 minutes of action in his lone appearance with the Bulls and was 0-1 with a 3.39 goals against and .882 save percentage in two games with the Junior Canadiens. Subban split time with Santo Provenzano for the Reps and was most impressive in the Telus Cup championship game, stopping 55 shots in a 3-2 loss to the Notre Dame Hounds. In 14 regular season games he had a 1.86 goals against and in 7 playoff contests was at 2.00 goals against. In five Telus Cup contests he was 2-2-1 with a 3.07 goals against and .921 save percentage.
2010-11: Subban played in 32 games for Belleville, being named to the OHL's All-Rookie Team, and represented Canada at the 2011 U18 World Junior Championship. Playing on a Bulls team that finished with the league's third-worst record, he was 10-17-2 with a 3.16 goals against and .900 save percentage. The Bulls reached the playoffs by finishing three points ahead of Peterborough in the East but were swept by Mississauga St. Michael's. Subban started three of four games in the playoffs, and had an impressive .933 save percentage and 2.02 goals against despite going 0-3. Subban appeared in five of seven games for fourth-place Canada at the U18 WJC and was 3-2 with two shutouts; finishing with a 2.98 goals against and .913 save percentage.
2011-12: Subban skated in 39 games for Belleville in his second season; being hampered by a mid-season groin injury. He was one of the OHL's top goaltenders and a big part of the Bulls turnaround as Belleville finished second in the East Division. He finished with a 25-14 mark and recorded three shutouts with a 2.50 goals against and .923 save percentage. In the Bulls' six-game playoff season with eventual OHL runners-up Ottawa he was 2-4 with one loss coming in overtime and had a 2.93 goals against and .917 save percentage. Subban was invited to the NHL Draft Combine and was the top ranked North American goalie in Central Scouting's final rankings (up from 20th in the mid-term rankings) prior to the 2012 NHL Draft.

Height 5.11 -- Weight 185 -- Shoots R
(Hockey db)
Seth Griffith is a 5'10 185lb Canadian forward from Wallaceburg, Ontario who has played his junior hockey for the London Knights. Griffith, selected 65th overall in the 2009 OHL Priority Selection, was undrafted last year after posting 62 points (22-40) in 68 games. This past season, however, Griffith exploded for 85 points (45-40) in 68 games along with 49 penalty minutes and a +24 rating. Good enough to be top 10 in OHL regular season scoring. Griffith also added 23 points (10-13), 12 penalty minutes, and a +14 rating in 19 playoff games (not including the Memorial Cup games) which put him in the top 5 for playoff scoring. Griffith has a combined 37 points (17-20) in 35 career OHL playoff games.
As evidence by his point totals this past year, Griffith is an offensive playmaker. Although his goal totals suggest he's a sniper (45 goals was 3rd best in the OHL) Griffith put out two consecutive seasons of 40 assists. Griffith is a very good passer and is a pass first guy which angered some Knights fans because he manned the point on the power play and wouldn't shoot as often. Griffith is a puck possession guy who can slow down games and see plays 2 or 3 passes before they happen but also has the improvisation skills to create plays by himself. He's a very agile and quick skater. Griffith is versatile enough to play all 3 forward positions and play them all well. Griffith also has a solid defensive game and played in checking roles at times for the Knights in his career. Also, his 37 playoff points in 35 playoff game show he's a clutch performer and shows up when it matters most.
The biggest knock on Griffith is his body size. He's a shorter guy and doesn't have the muscle massthat would allow him to play in a 3rd line checking role in the NHL. Griffith also, despite his agility and quickness, doesn't have the high gear for speed that a player of his size should have to make up for his lack of an elite offensive skill set. Though that can be developed, as can his muscle mass.

Hargrove is known for his hard nosed style of play where he brings a physical component and an improving scoring touch over the course of the season since he went scoreless during his first 7 games of the season. However, since the Christmas Break he has registered just over half of his 23 points in 34 total games played this season. He's also is tied for 2nd in assist for the team Willie Corin with 14 assists, in addition to his strong assist totals, he also has registered 9 goals with 67 Penalty Minutes and a Plus/Minus Rating of +3 so far this season.

Brasiella acuniae (Mutchler, 1924)
While thawing U.S. and Cuba relations are in the news here is a forgotten resident of Cuba: Brasiella acuniae (Mutchler, 1924); pictured is specimen from the Smithsonian's entomological collections.
Andrew J. Mutchler, curator of the Coleoptera at the American Museum of Natural History at that time, described this species in 1924 from eleven specimens collected in the Camaguey Province of Cuba. The first, and most striking aspect of this species is its diminutive size. Mutchler noted male beetles varied from 5 to 5.5mm in length, while females measured 5.5 to 6mm!
This species is smaller than any which has heretofore been described from the West Indies. It approaches viridicollis in the general color of the head and thorax, but the labrum, which is squarely truncate in viridicollis, is pointed at the middle in acuniae; also the white markings on the elytra, when present, are differently located and the metallic markings in acuniae, especially along the subsutural region, are represented by a row of somewhat large foveae, whereas in viridicollis the metallic markings are of approximately the same size on the whole elytra. The color of the under surface is similar in both species.
On the habitat in which the specimens were collected:
The Camaguey or Puerto Principe Province, where the specimens were obtained, is an immense plain, interrupted in a slight degree by hills belonging to the groups of Cubitee and Najash, situated respectively north and south of the capital, the city of Camaguey, which is located approximately in the center of the province.
The specific epithet is a patronym honoring the collector Julian Acuna:
The specimens representing a new form of Cicindelidae were kindly sent to this Museum by Mr. Stephen J. Bruner, Chief of the Department of Pathology and Entomology of the Estacion Experimental Agronomica, located at Santiago de las Vegas, Havana Province, Cuba. In an accompanying leter he states that the material was collected in the Camaguey Province, by a former assistant, Julian Acuna.
The American Museum of Natural History has a collection entry with an image of a type specimen and the full species description is available online through the AMNH.
Once altered = gone forever?
With efforts to develop globally imperiled pine rocklands met with a public outcry, Ram Realty, developers of the planned Coral Reef Commons, have attempted to portray the Coral Reef Commons (CRC) pine rocklands as largely developed. While this is not true (only 12% of the CRC site is significantly developed), what happens when pine rocklands are altered? Is the site really no longer a place worth preserving as Ram suggests?
In the image above is one of the best maintained Richmond Heights pine rockland tracts, covering over 60 acres. Today it sits just outside of Zoo Miami (and in the footprint of Miami Wilds!) but in the 1940's it was the site of Richmond Naval Air Station. Below in an image form 1952 you can see the expansive footprint of Richmond NAS.
In this side-by-side view you can see the remnants of the blimp mooring pads and the red outline of this 60+ acre tract of rocklands in 1952 and in 2014. What today is a beautiful forest was tarmac, bare earth, and grass back in the 1950s. This land was originally pine rocklands but was cleared (in the early 1940s) to make way for the naval air station. But with the decommissioning of the Richmond NAS and subsequent period of unhindered growth (and semi-regular wildfires/prescribed burns) it is again beautiful pine rocklands. Most importantly this site is home of the rare Miami tiger beetle, a candidate for state and federal protection, along with numerous other endemic and rare animal and plants.
As you can see even pine rockland tracts which have been altered are excellent candidates for restoration and seriously in need of protection. This need is even more urgent for the remaining intact Richmond Heights pine rocklands, which sit in the footprints of Coral Reef Commons and Miami Wilds. Ram Realty and 20th Century Fox developers are still pushing forward on their Coral Reef Commons and Miami Wilds, respectively, and Miami-Dade county is trying to circumvent any environmental regulations protecting or pertaining to these pine rocklands by attempting to declare a massive swath of land around Zoo Miami as a "slum or blighted area." These developments are both environmentally unacceptable and poorly planned, with no adequate measures taken to address the pine rocklands.
Cicindelidia melissa: A new species from southeastern Arizona and Mexico
Just published: Duran and Roman described a new tiger beetle species, Cicindelidia melissa Duran & Roman 2014, from high elevation (>2000 m.) Ponderosa pine forests in Chiracahua Mountains of southeastern Arizona and the Mexican states of Sonora, Chihuahua and Durango.
© Daniel P. Duran, Stephen J. Roman. Reproduced here under the terms of CC BY 4.0
From the paper:
This species can be distinguished from all other similar Cicindelidia by its dark green-violet abdominal venter with the two apical segments dull orange or orange-brown, a brassy-cupreous head and pronotum with metallic blue reflections in sulci, small shallow subsutural foveae present in most individuals, and microserrate elytral apices. It inhabits rocky upland soils in ponderosa pine forests above 2000 m.
C. sedecimpunctata (Klug, 1834) has an entirely orange-red to orange-brown abdominal venter, a more uniform dull brown dorsal coloration, and lacks apparent subsutural foveae. It also differs from the new species by inhabiting muddy ground at nearly any elevation. C. nebuligera (Bates, 1890) has dark elytral infuscations that surround the middle band, and lacks elytral apical microserrations. It may be found in similar habitats, but is apparently allopatric with the new species and does not appear to be restricted to elevations above 2000 m.

[The Committee] accepts the Study identifying approximately 2,146 acres within the unincorporated municipal service area (UMSA), which lie entirely in Commission District 9 represented by Commissioner Dennis C. Moss, to be slum and blighted.
Miami-Dade Legislative Item 142509
This month a Miami-Dade county committee approved a resolution from county commissioner Dennis Moss to designate the Richmond Heights pine rocklands (the largest fragement of pine rocklands outside the Everglades National Park and the only habitat of the Miami tiger beetle) along with the surrounding lands "a slum or blighted area." This resolution stemmed from a county-commitioned study supplied by the firm Calvin, Giordano & Associates which built a tenuous case that slum or blight conditions exist in and around the Richmond Heights pine rocklands. The Committee forwarded the resolution to the full Board of County Commissioners for consideration:
It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners … consider taking the following actions:
4. The Board declares and finds that there is a need for a community redevelopment agency to function and carry out the community redevelopment purposes of the Act; and
5. The Board directs the County Mayor or the County Mayor's designee to prepare a plan of redevelopment for the Area, and to submit the plan of redevelopment to the Board for approval after notice and public hearing.
Should a community redevelopment agency be created, the Area covered will make it the second largest in the County, with only the North Miami Community Redevelopment Agency larger at 3,540 acres. The Study includes the Zoo Miami, Coast Guard, and the former University of Miami properties.
Miami-Dade Legislative Item 142509
The goal in establishing the existence of slum or blight conditions and subsequent community redevelopment agency (CRA) is to create a special tax district¹ which will channel public funds into development of the site. The development in question is the $930 million theme park, Miami Wilds. As I have written previously the construction of this theme park (in its present incarnation) is a serious and unacceptable threat to the Richmond Heights pine rocklands and the survival of numerous endangered species, including the Miami tiger beetle, a candidate for emergency state and federal protection.
The developers, Miami Wilds LLC, have already received approval for an initial $13.5 million in bond funds to replicate the US Coast Guard communications tower array which currently stands in the footprint of the theme park. However, use of this land requires Federal permission and approval of the developer's plans; approval which has not yet been given.
The Richmond Heights pine rocklands have survived comparatively unscathed since the since the early development of the site in the 1940s and these lands represent a major portion of the 1.8% of pine rocklands left outside the Everglades National Park. Any further development seriously jeopardizes the rocklands, chiefly by fragmenting the remaining habitat and stifling fires, a necessary ecological cycle for the continued health of the habitats.
Proper management of pine rockland fragments includes prescribed burning (which can generate heavy amounts of smoke)… Construction of hospitals, schools, apartments, and hotels around [rocklands] should be discouraged because of conflicts with smoke generation during prescribed fires. URS Corporation et al 2007
These current plans for Miami Wilds and Coral Reef Commons will severely fragment the remaining Richmond Heights pine rocklands. Once these rocklands are surrounded by heavy development any prescribed burning will be extraordinarily unlikely.
… maximize open space and limit pollution runoff [around rocklands]. URS Corporation et al 2007
A secondary impact of any development is that without sufficient buffer areas around the rocklands the new fragments will be highly susceptible to pollution and encroachment of non-native and invasive animals and plants from the surrounding.
The current plans for development do not adequately conserve these imperiled rocklands and are not a reasonable option for the continued survival of this unique habitat and its inhabitants. Over 98% of the Miami-Dade rocklands have been lost to development. There are better options for utilization of the non-rockland areas, options which do not fragment or destroy rocklands, alternatives which provide adequate buffers to facilitate the necessary management of the habitat.
The "blight" resolution has been forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners for consideration and a full public hearing on January 21st.
Local residents are planning a rally for the rocklands on January 17th
The Center for Biological Diversity has a letter to the Miami Board of County Commissioners which you can sign and send in support of preserving the pine rocklands.

Emergency protection sought for Miami tiger beetle
Today the Center for Biological Diversity filed emergency petitions to protect the exceedingly rare Miami tiger beetle, Cicindela floridana, a South Florida pine rocklands endemic, as a protected species under Florida law and as endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act.
Pine rocklands once stretched from the Florida Keys up to the northern edge of Miami-Dade County, but widespread urbanization and agricultural development destroyed the majority of Floridian pine rockland. This fire-dependent community, found on limestone outcroppings, is comprised of a sparse canopy dominated by Florida slash pine, Pinus elliotti var. densa, and a varied understory. Today, only a fraction of the original Miami pine rockland habitat remains; by some estimates as little as 1.8%. Moreover, most of these remaining areas are quite small and often widely separated by miles of heavy development.
The pine rockland habitats are home to many endemic species, many of which are listed as endangered including the Florida Bonneted bat (Eumops floridanus), Bartram's hairstreak (Strymon acis bartrami), Florida leafwing (Anaea troglodyta floridalis), Florida brickell-bush (Brickellia mosieri), deltoid spurge (Chamaesyce deltoidea deltoidea), Carter's small-flowered flax (Linum carteri carteri), tiny polygala (Polygala smallii).
Today many of these remaining pine rocklands and their inhabitants now face another danger; due to the lack of fire, both native and non-native vegetation are taking over the habitats which incrementally transitioning to hardwood hammocks.
Of greatest concern is the Richmond Heights pine rocklands, where the Miami tiger beetle was rediscovered in 2007. In addition to vegetation encroachment, there are plans to develop significant portions of the pinelands. The first, and most immediate, is Ram Realty's plan to develop and 88-acre parcel of rocklands purchased from the University of Miami.
While Ram has set aside some of the land for nature preserves, any development seriously jeopardizes the rocklands by fragmenting the remaining habitat and stifling fires, a necessity for the continued health of the habitats. The second, and most expansive in scope, is the county's plan to develop a major amusement park in and around the rocklands.
This plan calls for major development including a four lane highway and major transportation corridor through the rocklands. This development will irrevocably damage all of the Richmond pine rocklands, through fragmentation, pollution, and stifling fires within the remaining habitat.
Both development pose real and immediate risks to endangered and rare species, including the Miami tiger beetle. These developments will results in the destruction and degradation of pine rocklands and will kill endangered and candidate species including the adults and larvae of the Miami tiger beetle.
Even before the current plans for development the Miami tiger beetle (Cicindela floridana) was a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service species of concern. Additionally, Knisley et al (2014) assigned the Miami tiger beetle a 1+ grade, their "highest level of rarity and/or threats" in a comprehensive review of the conservation status of United States tiger beetles. With over 98% of the potential former habitat gone and direct threats to the only remaining habitat this species is in need of urgent action to prevent its extinction.

Platychile pallida (Fabricius 1801)
Individuals of the monotypic genus Platychile occur on sandy beaches along the coast of Namibia and South Africa. The sole species, Platychile pallida, is an active forager at night but during the day retreats under kelp or into burrows along the high tide line. Kensley (1974) reports that these adult burrows are about a centimeter and a half deep.
At night, the adults forage along the low beach along debris lines and are principle competitors of juvenile Tylos sp. (Isopoda: Oniscidea) as both feed on animal matter, including washed up Physalia (Kensley 1974).
Prins (1984) notes the robust carabid beetle Acanthoscelis ruficornis (Fabricius, 1801) preys upon Platychile adults. If accurate this encounter must be quite the fight!
Arndt (1998) described the all larval instars of Platychile. The larvae are slender with an elongated and weakly sclerotized body. Of particular interest the abdominal hooks of Platychile larvae are shifted away the center of the fifth abdominal segment and located closer to each side. This is faintly visible in one of Arndt's figures (reproduced in Handbook of Zoology, Vol. IV).
Johan Christian Fabricius described this species in his 1801 work Systema Eleutheratorum from material collected in southern Africa; however, he placed P. pallida in the genus Manticora. W.S. MacLeay established the genus Platychile in 1825 and placed P. pallida into this distinct genus. While at least five other species, subspecies, or variations of Platychile have been described each has not withstood scrutiny and P. pallida remains the only valid species in this unique genus.
Choate (2008) notes that P. pallida is a candidate for protection. I cannot find any further information regarding the threats to either habitat or population numbers. Other mentions of this species protection are confined to passing mention in drafts of South African protected species lists.
There is a photo of a live Platychile adult on flickr – you can find it here.

The Cicindela of Linnaeus
Carl Linnaeus (or his ennobled name Carl von Linné or the latinate Carolus Linnaeus) laid the foundations for binomial nomenclature, modern taxonomy, and recognized the tiger beetles as a distinct group. As with much of Linnaeus' writing the description of the genus is in Latin; in the first edition of Systema Naturae he erected the genus Cicindela, noting that unique appearance of the clypeus and the prominent mandibles.
From the publication of Systema Naturae and through subsequent editions until his death Linnaeus described eight tiger beetle species. While the species came from Europe, North America, and South Africa Linnaeus placed all eight species in the genus Cicindela. Later workers have dispersed these species across five genera and ajoined numerous subspecies since Linnaeus' death in 1778.
Cephalota maura (Linnaeus, 1758)
Cicindela campestris Linnaeus, 1758
Cicindela hybrida Linnaeus, 1758
Cicindela sylvatica Linnaeus, 1758

Skechers shoes?
Has anyone tried the Skechers shoes, yet? Some of the women's styles of sandals are flat and cute; but I wonder how well they would hold up for 3 weeks in Germany/Italy/Austria. Thanks.
Has anyone tried the Skechers shoes, yet? Some of the women's styles of sandals are flat and cute; but I wonder how well they would hold up for 3 weeks in Germany/Italy/Austria. Thanks.
I wore a pair of skechers last year in Europe and they held up great. In fact I am taking them back this year.
I think Sketchers are good too. But any shoe, even well broken in ones can turn on you after many many hours of walking. So you should have a back up pair, or be prepared to wear some sandals or flip-flops!
BG is right. I have countless pairs of super comfortable shoes of all the brands known for their comfort, and they work perfectly fine for my normal daily activities. But once I am on the road, I am amazed how even the most trusted comfy shoes start hurting my feet. I have an over-the-shoulder bag where I can put in a pair of Crocs (the ones with open toes, not too bulky and in a very discreet colour) and take them with me once I go out the door. Just in case.
Well, I had a different experience with my Skechers. I had a ton of blisters when I wore then all over Amsterdam & Germany last September. I am trying them again this year in France, but I bought some new inserts to hopefully make them more comfortable. I too think they are cute. I also think I have the most sensitive feet in the world!! :) Have a great time on your trip.
My daughter and I wore Teva Sandals during our 8 week trip to Europe. We never had sore feet or blisters.
My daughter has bad feet too.
We bought Birkenstocks once we got to Germany.
When I go to Israel later this year, I will take the Tevas and Birkenstocks.
I have several pairs of skechers. The ones that are lace up sneakers - I have played ball in them and walked a lot - they provide pretty good support. I don't have totally flat feet - but my arches are fally.
I have another pair of basic lace up black shoes (look like steel toe work shoes) - and they are VERY comfortable throughout the day.
I've had a pair of thick sole sandals - way comfortable for standing - irritating for a lot of walking (on the top of my feet).
I have a pair of slip on sneakers (the track shoe style). They feel so good - like slippers - and they look great. But, my feet are tired/sore after a lot of walking and standing on concrete.
I LOVE skechers - but I am considering another brand for my Europe trip. I think the shoes with thicker soles will provide a little more comfort.
I too am thinking about bringing Sketchers on my trip to Europe. They are a basic lace up tennis shoe, but very comfy and light. I wore them for 5 days of heavy walking in Disneyland and they were very comfortable, but that was walking on even, flat ground. I think they will be excellent as a back-up if my feet are tired of my heavier walking shoes during lighter travel days. An insole would be a huge help as their sneakers don't have too much cushioning/arch support.

I agree - that's where I got my start. But yellow journalism is nothing new. William Randolph Hearst built an empire on it and some of his misleading stuff actually found its way into some history texts. Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders' charge up San Juan Hill in the Spanish-American War is a prime example. They arrived in Cuba without most of their horses since they couldn't arrange transport so their 'charge' was on foot - right behind the 9th and 10th Cavalry. But it was more fashionable (and better newspaper sales) to tout the adventures of a poorly trained bunch of civilians to the embarrassment of the US Army than to tell the truth about the success of all black army units.Originally Posted by reellis67
In journalism, pictures are tools to tell a story - they can be used to enhance the telling of the facts or they can be used to tell lies.

President Obama is a staunch supporter of the Dream Act, having said it is "important to our economic competitiveness, military readiness and law enforcement efforts." After it failed to past the Senate in 2010, the president vowed not to give up on the act because "it is not only the right thing to do for talented young people who seek to serve a country they know as their own, it is the right thing for the United States of America."
Tamira Ramirez, whose parents brought her to the United States illegally when she was 15 years old, said she is tired of Obama's "sweet words."
"We need more," she said while attending the left-leaning Campus Progress Conference in Washington, D.C. last week. "And although he's only human, he's got to become a superhuman because he's the president."
Ramirez grew up in D.C. and graduated from Beloit College in Wisconsin last year but is still undocumented. She said if she ever got deported to El Salvador, she would probably be killed because she is a lesbian and "that's just not the way it goes" in Latin America.
"We didn't walk into this," Ramirez said. "We just got here somehow, and now we need to find a way to make the best of it and we can't if we don't have the keys to open those doors that apparently are closed. We need a way."

Lashley rooting for Punk
During a recent interview, Bobby Lashley stated that a lot of professional wrestling fans are going to be mad when CM Punk makes his UFC debut and actually wins the fight. A lot of WWE fans are still upset with Punk for leaving, so they are being petty by rooting against him doing well in MMA. Lashley is well aware of this, so he is not afraid to speak out.

CJ Parker NXT debut
HHH holds meeting
After the big NXT event last night, Triple H held a meeting with the performers. He praised them for their performance on the show, as it went well above expectations. HHH also thanks the wrestlers for not leaking the Samoa Joe debut to the internet wrestling community. Generally, someone backstage is responsible for getting the word out to one of the various websites. This time, however, the company went above and beyond to keep it a secret.

Vince Russo on Sami Zayn
Never one to avoid controversy, Vince Russo has drawn the ire of the internet wrestling community yet again. The source of discontent stems from the fact that he took to social media to say that Sami Zayn, who made his debut on Monday Night Raw this week, was not a television star yet. He stated that while the hardcore fans might know of him, the masses just assumed that he was some jobber that was in the ring with John Cena.

Sami Zayn debuts on Raw
For those of you that watched the latest episode of Monday Night Raw, Sami Zayn made his official debut by being the mystery challenger for the United States Heavyweight Championship held by John Cena. While it was a great performance and moment, it has left the internet wrestling community with a lot of questions, the most important of which pertains to his status on the main roster. He might not be making the jump yet.

Awesome Kong turning face
As some of you may have seen on Impact Wrestling, Taryn Terrell did a heel turn and introduced a new stable called the Dollhouse (with Mia Yim and Marti Belle). The trio attacked Awesome Kong to help Taryn retain the belt. That has led many to wonder what Kong would do next. There are rumors floating around that TNA is considering a face turn for her. She would debut a kinder and gentler version of her character.

New TNA Knockouts
In a sign that the company is still looking to upgrade their roster, TNA has announced that they have signed two of the top female performers on the independent wrestling circuit. Mia Yim and Marti Belle have been signed to contracts and will be debuting as the newest Knockouts on the roster very soon. Yim, in particular, caught the attention of the internet wrestling community on social media because she is friends with several of the big names.

WWE Network in India
For the next phase of their expansion plans, WWE is set to debut the Network in several countries. One of the more interesting choices is India, as many industry insiders feel that it is one of the hotter markets for professional wrestling. While much of their population lives in poverty, there is a good amount of wealthy people that may be willing to spend on the service. Great Khali could be brought back solely to promote the online service.

Sting wrestling again
Now that he has made his Wrestlemania debut in a cameo filled match against Triple H, Sting is going to take some time and decide on his future in professional wrestling. He is said to be open to the idea of working more matches for WWE, provided that the story makes sense and the money is right. On the flip side, the company definitely would love to make use of his name value once again, but they are not going to rush his decision.

Good Points
Camera, MP3 Player, Reception, User Interface.
General Comments
I got the Sharp 902 mobile phone on an upgrade around a month ago, and it has been superb! The reception is top class, picking up signals where I would usually be out of service with my Sony Ericsson P900. The MP3 Player sounds great, even better than the SE K750i, and the 2MP camera is brilliant! I took many pictures on my tour to the Rockies, and the quality is on a par with my Canon camera, except the pictures are smaller. The UI is very good, and easy to adjust to. The 256k screen beats all others, and the battery life lasts 5 days with a few calls and Bluetooth use, and 2 to 3 days of heavy usage (1 hour calls, regular Bluetooth usage, camera usage and games/SMS).

The Sharp 902 mobile phone has an out-of-this-world colour screen, and the pictures it takes are amazing.

|To Taste
|Lemon juice/Lime juice
|1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Cooking oil
|3 Tablespoon
Cut peeled potatoes in half, lengthwise, and scoop out centres.
Crush peas coarsely and mix with the chilli sliced thin (remove seeds if liked, they are the really hot part) onions diced fine, salt and lime or lemon juice.
Stuff potatoes with this mixture and bind together by sticking toothpicks or small sticks through them.
Shallow fry them all over in hot oil until light brown, then drain.
Make curry of the other ingredients, add 11/2 cups boiling water.
When it has simmered a few minutes, carefully place the fried and stuffed potatoes in it, cover and simmer gently until they are tender.
Now a warning about the chilli powder: if it is the real hot stuff use a quarter teaspoon, more or less, but if it is weakened down as some spices are, use it a bit stronger.
That kind of Dum Aloo can take a green salad with avocado pear and the usual curry accompaniments.

Despite the most intensive search in commercial aviation history, no trace of Flight MH370 has been found since it vanished on a service from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8.
Malaysia Airlines (MAS) has said it will close assistance centres it has set up in Beijing and Kuala Lumpur for the families of the 239 passengers and crew on board.
On Friday, Malaysia's deputy foreign minister Hamzah Zainudin said:"It's about time for us to actually accept the reality that the family members should go back and wait for the answer in their hometowns."
Officials said families would be told of developments and those who qualified would receive prompt compensation.
Family and friends of Rod and Mary Burrows, two of six Australians on board the flight, will hold a memorial service in Brisbane on Sunday, according to a statement released by police.

So disappointed!!! -
By: jackiefisc from Woodstock VT
We ordered a pot with bulbs for 3 months for our mom for a mother's day gift. She received an UGLY little pot and now, almost two weeks later, there is one 1/2 inch bud and the other hasn't come up. The "card" was part of the bill of lading. Boy oh boy were we disappointed. I called Orvis to ask for our money back, or for my mom to pick out an item from the catalog instead, but got cut off. Mom didn't want us to bother with calling back We paid $95 for this disastrous mother's day gift!!!!

A fusion genre is a music genre which combines two or more genres, although it usually is used to refer to jazz fusion. For example, rock and roll originally developed as a fusion of blues, gospel and country music. The main characteristics of fusion genres are variations in tempo, rhythm and sometimes the use of long musical "journeys" that can be divided into smaller parts, each with their own dynamics, style and tempo.

Read Poems by
Hana Ryusaka
Take your filthy strands
of reasoning, shedding
off-white from my hair.
I claim this fistful of universe
as my own. Let my mind expand
and dance, unfettered in the fall
-in glory-
Let the rain cleanse my faith again
as I sing to a god
I know but have never understood.
Let me brush quick-healing
scars through the sky with my wrinkly fingers
and leave barely-there imprints from where
the balls of my feet embraced earth.
This is me.
I will not be patronized.
I will not be underestimated.
I will not be clapped shut.
And I will not make my life a mockery.
I will stand on my own
until I find the place that makes sense
to me.

These new standards replace the standards for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and the Core professional standards previously published by the Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA), and the General Teaching Council for England's Code of Conduct and Practice for Registered Teachers.
The new standards aim to create a single standard system that will apply to the vast majority of teachers regardless of their career stage.
The Teachers' Standards will apply to: trainees working towards QTS; all teachers completing their statutory induction period; and those covered by the new performance appraisal arrangements. The Teachers' Standards relating to professional and personal conduct will be used to assess cases of serious misconduct, regardless of the sector in which the teacher works.
The standards are presented in three parts, which together constitute the Teacher's Standards. These parts are as follows:
Preamble - The Preamble summarises the values and behaviour that all teachers must demonstrate throughout their careers
Part 1 - Part 1 comprises the Standards for Teaching
Part 2 - Part 2 comprises the standards for Professional and Personal Conduct.
A more detailed explanation of the standards can be found at the following DFE website address:
What do you think of the new structure of the teacher standards? Can all teachers at different stages of their careers with different teaching leadership responsibilities and at different levels of the professional, all access one generic, one-size fits all teacher standards framework? Or is this attempt to simplify the teachers' standards impractical in its approach? Continue the discussion at http://www.pescholar.com/

Net Impact
By Julia Ioffe
Late on a snowy evening, Alexey Navalny, a lawyer and blogger known for his crusade against the corruption that pervades Russian business and government, sat in a radio studio in Moscow. Tall and blond, Navalny, who is thirty-four years old, cuts a striking figure, and in the past three years he has established himself as a kind of Russian Julian Assange or Lincoln Steffens. On his blog, he has uncovered criminal self-dealing in major Russian oil companies, banks, and government ministries, an activity he calls "poking them with a sharp stick." Three months ago, he launched another site, RosPil, dedicated to exposing state corruption, where he invites readers to scrutinize public documents for evidence of malfeasance and post their findings. Since the site went up, government contracts worth nearly seven million dollars have been annulled after being found suspect by Navalny and his army. Most remarkably, Navalny has undertaken all this in a country where a number of reporters and lawyers investigating such matters have been beaten or murdered.

How long should I wait then before I do tell her?
Okay, so I'm dating this girl for the last two months, and I know that I'm not in love with her at the moment. The problem is that I down the line... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
I am a woman. I have been in love. I have been burned good a few times. I was dating this guy for a few months and he told me he loved me out of the blue one night. The expression on his face was dead serious. I at the time was still hurt from a previous relationship. I knew I really liked the new guy but "love" on my part had not come to mind. I was astonished that he felt that way and ignorant I laughed at him. I said no you don't. He kept telling me he did. I told him I don't believe that because he had not been together long enough. Needless to say he never told me again because he was too scared I know to hear what I had to say. A few months later I realized I loved him. But was too scared to say it because I was so "burned" and "hated" love. I denied my feelings and lost him and to this day I still say I loved him, but never had a chance to say it. My advice, wait awhile before you do say it but don't wait too long that you may never get the chance.. for in the long run you can always look back and smile knowing you TRIED and said what your heart felt. I feel so bad for dissing him when he told me. I could have handled that in a better way. but it is in the past. If you do say it, MEAN IT and let her know you MEAN IT by your actions :)
What Girls Said 1
What Guys Said 3
She is probably just too scared of history repeating itself, by putting her emotions out there on the line again. I say give her as much time as she needs, and let it feel natural for her when it happens. If you just enoy her company and don't dwell on it, I think things will be ok. If she is with you, she is still hoping for love. And if you let her wounds heal I am sure she will open up to you. The hard part for you will be to not force your eagerness on her. Try saying you really enjoy spending time with her, or saying hey that was fun instead of I love you.
At one point of my life I felt like love was all bunk. Mostly I didn't believe in the "mystical" part to it. Later on in life I realized love is just a bunch of circumstances and effort and how much you enjoy spending time with someone. It's all the little things that add up in the end, so love is more of a condition than an emotion. You experience all other emotions in the condition of love. That my 2 cents anyways.
You should not be so inclined to tell a girl you love her after 2 months. Give it another 4 months or so and I think you will know at that point whether saying you love her will get a positive response.
Saying I love you doesn't make it so. You both could go on for a year loving each other very much without saying it. If you feel you must say it after 6 months and she has still be going on about how she doesn't believe in love - find a good time to tell her that you truly love her and you love her so much that its not important that she says it back, as long as she truly enjoys being with you and doesn't want that to change. If she admits to that. What else can you want?
How long should you wait before you tell her "I love you", huh? Try this on for size: DON'T tell her, SHOW her. If you go out of your way to surprise her, do special things for her, and make her FEEL loved, then you won't ever have to tell her a word. It's been said time and time again: "Actions speak louder than words" and in a man's case. That's the route I like to take. Do little romantic things for her, snuggle with her at night during a movie, and generally show her that you like being with her in a charming and interesting way and SHE will be the one to spring the phrase on YOU. If you don't believe me, try it.
Have an opinion?

Report cards for summer school? Why not? So here we will take some time and evaluate what the NFL's 65 preseason contests inevitably taught us about all 32 teams.
While reading too much into preseason statistics and a team's win-loss record is ill-advised, those numbers will be somewhat taken into account here.
Yes, we know the story of the 2008 Detroit Lions, who finished the summer at 4-0. They didn't win a regular-season game in 16 tries.
Still, it is worth noting that only one time in 47 years has a club gone winless in the preseason and gone on to win the Super Bowl that same season. That would be the 1982 Washington Redskins, who captured a title with a victory in Super Bowl XVII.
A little food for thought for both the Atlanta Falcons and Pittsburgh Steelers, both which finished this preseason 0-4 this summer.

A Boost for Early Childhood Education
Nine states that won Race to the Top grants to improve early-childhood education all presented plans that include collaboration across government agencies to achieve their goals. Such efforts often take place in silos, but the "holistic approach is one thing that ties together the nine [winning] states," said Kathleen Sebelius, secretary of Health and Human Services, at a White House event Dec. 16 to announce the winners.
Education officials hope the Race to the Top–Early Learning Challenge will spark widespread reform of programs that serve the youngest children – parallel to changes that have been seen in K-12 in response to the initial $4 billion Race to the Top competition.
California, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina,Ohio, Rhode Island, and Washington will receive four-year grants for their comprehensive plans to increase early-education quality and close gaps, particularly for low-income children, in school readiness.
"At a time when many states have cut early-childhood education programs because of severe budget constraints, the Obama administration is trying to send a signal that investments today in this area could yield big returns for the economic and social well-being of the country tomorrow."
"Investing in early learning is one of the smartest things we can do," said Education Secretary Arne Duncan at a White House event Friday morning where the winning states were announced. "If we're going to be serious about actually closing achievement gaps … nothing is more important than getting our babies off to a good start."
Schoodoodle.com carries a wide variety of early childhood education supplies, materials, and resources as well as instructional resources for students in K-12.

A speeding violation is a slightly lesser violation than the careless driving violation which is similar to the reckless driving violation. Minnesota Statutes define 'careless driving' as "Any person who operates or halts any vehicle upon any street or highway carelessly or heedlessly in disregard of the rights of others, or in a manner that endangers or is likely to endanger any property or any person, including the driver or passengers of the vehicle, is guilty of a misdemeanor".
According to the Minnesota Insurance Rules, chapter 2770, 2.5 points are assigned for reckless driving, 1.5 points are assigned for careless driving, compared to 0.5 points assigned for speeding. Insurance companies use these points to determine policy renewal, and a total of two points acquired by one insured on a single vehicle is sufficient to warrant nonrenewal of your policy.
Check with your insurance company to get more accurate details as to how this will affect your insurance policy.

Links of the day
By The Intern
Page 2
-- For anyone who wondered what the wise-cracking curly-haired kid from "The Mighty Ducks" looks like 26 and shirtless. Or anyone who had to sit through UNC losing to Hampton ... and Davidson ... and UConn by 32 ... and Maryland by 33 ... and the EA Sports All-Stars ...
-- Hope the grilled cheese people have some cash left over. Here's an actual Ron Artest cup from Friday night ... not to be confused with THE actual Ron Artest cup from Friday night. I feel like Eddie George writing that.
(Not that you asked, but my favorite Monday Night Football player intro -- by far -- was Charlie Woodson, cocked Michigan visor, saying: "It's Mr. Woodson to you. You know the school." I threw my last name in there and used it as an away message off and on for a solid month.)
Penguin Warehouse
-- No Lemieux jerseys whatsoever. This one's for mid-December when Ron Arest is lounging by his indoor pool, wonders out loud what to do that day, and Steve Jackson replies "Drink five Steel Reserves?" Huh huh. Already did that.
Blog Maverick
-- Since I've linked to Donald Trump trashing Mark Cuban before, better run Cuban's take on the Trump Chapter 11 mess. Notice he's too giddy to use apostrophes.
-- And I tried giving equal time to Sir Richard Branson, but Googling "Blog Virgin" only got me so far.
San Francisco Chronicle (11/21)
-- Bleak news for the Ricky Williams keeper league vigils. A 17-month holistic healing course at the College of Ayurveda in Grass Valley should keep him out through 2005. Does that replace "Texas" in his bio?
-- Because Eric Nies links come in threes. If you're thinking what I'm thinking, I'll save you the work. According to the latest issue of "Platinum Today," the going rate is $881 an ounce. From the looks of this award, there's more in Shyne's mouth.
WWE.com (click "Are You Ready?")
-- If you were offended by the Terrell Owens clip, skip past last night's "RAW" intro. If not, you might gain a new liking for Vince McMahon, even more so than when he said, "This time if Bob Costas gets in my way, I'm going to forget that he is 4-foot-10 and 120 pounds."
NY Post (11/23)
-- Safe to say Ron Artest is the only person on earth simultaneously gunning for Kevin Garnett, Eminem and Jimmy Carter. I was so stunned by the ending that I couldn't even think up an Arafat joke.
Reuters (336 B.C.)
-- Quote of the Month. Granted, "In the end, all that matters is what you've done" was taken, but you'd think a lawyer trying to defend Alexander the Great's past could have thought up a better slogan than this. Anyone know how to say "not that there's anything wrong with that" in Greek?
USA Today (11/22)
-- Heartwarming stuff out of (where else?) Florida. Writes links reader Benjamin Zani: "My friend Cassie was actually the one to take the phone call from Vanilla Ice about his missing kangaroo and goat. She works for the local paper in Port St. Lucie, and they put a picture of them on the front page. Then today, she gets a call from Vanilla Ice, asking for the number for Animal Control. I couldn't make this up if I tried." Here I thought being in a Small World league with Hench made this a cool job.
Boston Herald (11/18)
-- An expose (okay, 1000 words, it's the Herald) about belligerent bouncers in Boston. My roommate and I have both heard about a place that trains the staff to bend the pinkie a certain way so you tear the tendon apart. This bar didn't even make the story. Don't let Steven Tyler fool you. It's a tough town.
LA Weekly (11/19)
-- Joel Stein's heading to LA to (possibly) write for the Times, and columnist Nikki Finke is not happy about it ... AT ALL. I couldn't have cared less until I saw that "Professor Stein" teaches a humor writing class at Princeton. No wonder we've got people like Jenna Bush telling us her gammie thinks "Sex and the City" is something married people do, but never talk about. Now THAT'S annoying.
American Film Institute
-- Had a great time Thursday night going over the 400 nominees for the 100 greatest movie quotes. I'd give it a B+. I had two real problems: 1) They nominated a quote from "Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid," but not "You just keep thinkin', Butch. That's what you're good at." My Mom has been using that for years, in response to things like: "You know, I've been thinking about becoming an ordained minister." And 2) I respect that one of the criteria is "quotes that viewers use to evoke the memory of a treasured film, thus ensuring and enlivening its historical legacy." Still, there's gotta be some leeway for "You're KILLING me, Smalls!"

-- Ain't nothing like a Nat-town party, if a Nat-town party includes blunts, group sex and Ron Artest making pukey noises. I kinda think he sounds like Big Pun. Maybe somebody else told him that. And maybe that's why he laid out the pudgy guy.

One of my favorite teachers at Choate, Mr. Yankus, had a similar warning against using the verb "to be" in any essay.
But embarrassed administrators at Choate have been in lockdown on disclosing details.
So we have a graduate of Choate or Beverly Hills High who attends Wharton, and goes to work for, say, Goldman Sachs.
"finished, complete," mistaken back-formation from inchoate (q.v.) as though that word contained in- "not." First attested 1878 in letter from Oliver Wendell Holmes lamenting barbarisms in legal case writing (he said he found choate in a California report).
