Improved integrity of a payment system for paying for services or goods, for example, telephone facilities, through use of electronic payment cards. In any session to increase a card balance, a "flag" is placed ("1") on the payment card which indicates that the session must not be interrupted. After completion, the flag is removed again ("0"). A session to pay for the product or the service or to increase the balance can only be established if the flag is absent ("0") indicating that the last session to increase the balance was correctly completed. If, on the other hand, the flag is still "1" at the start of a session, a correction routine is first performed in which the previous session to increase the balance is then correctly concluded to prevent the flag being removed by fraud, the flag can only be removed by a central system (PSTN/ABS) through issurance of an authorized instruction.
1. A payment system comprising:
a terminal;
a payment card for communicatively interacting with the terminal so as to effectuate a transaction therethrough;
means, operative in conjunction with a process which increases a balance stored in the card, for changing a symbol stored in the card from a first symbol to a second symbol, wherein said changing means:
detects, at a beginning of said process, if said first or said second symbol is stored in the card;
if said second symbol is stored, changes said second symbol to said first symbol and performs said process to increase the stored balance; and
if said first symbol is stored, indicates that a previous execution of said process was interrupted prior to completion and completes or repeats the previous execution of the process.
2. The payment system in claim 1 further comprising a central system connected to the terminal, the terminal being remote from the central system, wherein the central system, upon completion of the process to increase the balance stored in the card, sends a signal to the terminal so as to change the stored symbol from the first symbol to the second symbol.
3. The payment system in claim 2 wherein at the beginning of the process to increase the balance stored in the card, the terminal changes the stored symbol from the second symbol to the first symbol.
4. The payment system in claim 3 wherein the payment card comprises an electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) and the stored symbol is changed from the second symbol to the first symbol as a result of a WRITE instruction executed by the card.
5. The payment system in claim 2 wherein the payment card comprises an electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) and the stored symbol is changed from the first symbol to the second symbol as a result of a MODIFY instruction executed by the card.
6. A method for use in a payment system having a terminal and a payment card, wherein the payment card communicatively interacts with the terminal so as to effectuate a transaction therethrough, the method comprising the steps of:
changing, in conjunction with a process which increases a balance stored in the card, a symbol stored in the card from a first symbol to a second symbol, comprising the steps of:
detecting, at a beginning of said process, if said first or said second symbol is stored in the card;
if said second symbol is stored, changing said second symbol to said first symbol and performing said process to increase the stored balance; and
if said first symbol is stored, indicating that a previous execution of said process was interrupted prior to completion and completing or repeating the previous execution of the process.
7. The method in claim 6 further comprising the step of sending a signal, from a central system to the card and upon completion of the process to increase the balance stored in the card, so as to change the stored symbol from the first symbol to the second symbol.
8. The method in claim 7 further comprising the step of changing, at the beginning of the process to increase the balance stored in the card, the stored symbol from the second symbol to the first symbol.
9. The method in claim 8 further comprising the step of changing the stored symbol from the second symbol to the first symbol as a result of a WRITE instruction executed by the card.
10. The method in claim 7 further comprising the step of changing the stored symbol from the first symbol to the second symbol as a result of a MODIFY instruction executed by the card.
The invention relates to a payment system in which use is made of electronic payment cards, in particular "chip cards" or "smart cards". Under consideration in the present application are, in particular, payment cards which can be used for paying call costs in public telephone terminals. However, other services and goods can also be paid for in this way. This development is in fact referred to as a so-called "electronic purse". Under consideration in this connection is the payment of generally none too large amounts by means of electronic payment cards on which a balance is previously entered. Payment takes place by reducing the balance on the card. Of course, measures have to be taken in order to arrange for the balance reduction to benefit the supplier; systems for this purpose are still being developed and tests are taking place in that field. To place an initial balance on the card and increase the balance later, there must be an infrastructure of terminals and the like if this form of payment is to be accepted. It appears possible to use the public telephone terminals for this purpose. Such terminals act as "charging stations" for the electronic payment cards. Of course, the public telephone terminals remain suitable as means for conducting telephone calls and offering any other telecommunication facilities via the downstream central telephone system or telecommunication system. Payment of such telephone calls and any other facilities may, at the same time, take place by means of the "electronic purse". Although the payment of telephone/telecommunication costs, in particular, is considered below, it is emphasized that the invention, as explained below, is not limited thereto and is equally applicable for payment for other services or goods by means of an "electronic purse". The "charging" of payment cards need not occur via telephone terminals either, but can equally well occur via other terminals, for example, terminals which are now used for issuing cash (so-called "cash points").
After a payment card has been provided with an initial balance, that balance is reduced by the telephone terminal in accordance with a rate for the telephone costs. The provision of an initial balance and the replenishment of the balance after the passing of time can also occur via the telephone terminal. To do this, connection has to be made to a central administration system which, onto the one hand, enters the amount desired by the user on the card and, on the other hand, ensures that the amount can be received, for example, by sending an account to the user or via (after authorization) electronic reduction of the balance of a bank account belonging to the user.
The measures proposed according to the present invention are intended to combat errors and frauds in the processes mentioned (the use/payment process and the "balance process").
The essence of the invention is that a "flag" is placed on the payment card during each balance process throughout the entire process time in order to indicate that the payment card is occupied with an indivisible action, i.e. a process which cannot be interrupted. After said indivisible action has taken place, the flag is removed. The placing and removal of the flag takes place by writing a certain first symbol (for example, "1") or second symbol (for example, "0") into a certain memory location of the payment card. The exploitation process and payment process (the use of the telephone facilities) can only be started after it has been confirmed that there is no flag at said certain memory location, which means that the last balance process was correctly concluded. If there is, in fact, a flag, no connection to the telephone system is set up. Instead thereof, a balance session is set up in which the incorrectly concluded previous session is repeated or is continued and correctly finally concluded on basis of the information still present an the administration system.
In order to prevent the flag from being capable of being removed by fraud, for example by means of a PC and a card terminal (under consideration is the situation where the payment card is pulled out of the terminal during the balance process at the instant when the balance on the card has already been increased while preparation of the invoice (or automatic debit instruction) has not yet taken place) provision is preferably made that the flag can be removed only by the central system which is concerned with increasing the balance. The code signal for removing the flag is therefore, preferably also presented to the payment card, provided with a cryptographic code which the central system denotes as the origin of the code signal (message authentication code, MAC). If this appears to be correct, the code signal is converted into an instruction to replace the first symbol ("1", "flag up") into the second symbol ("0", "flag down"). Preferably, if EEPROM cards are used, various instructions are used to set up the flag and to remove it. For the first action ("0"→"1"), the instruction "WRITE" is used and for the second action ("1"→"0"), the instruction "MODIFY" is used. The difference is:
______________________________________bit in buffer WRITE → bit in buffer0 0 → 01 0 → 10 1 → 11 1 → 1bit in buffer MODIFY → bit in buffer0 0 → 01 0 → 00 1 → 11 1 → 1______________________________________
The invention is discussed in greater detail below with reference to a diagrammatic representation of a card telephone system in FIG. 1 and four diagrams in FIGS. 2-5.
FIG. 1 depicts apparatus, here illustratively a telephone terminal and an accounting and billing system, both interconnected by a telephone network, which embodies the present invention; and
FIGS. 2-5 each depicts a particular protocol occurring among the telephone network (system), the terminal and a payment card for a corresponding mode of operation involving the present invention.
FIG. 1 shows, a e.g., public switched telephone network (PSTN) to which a telephone terminal is connected. Payment of telephone costs occurs by periodically reducing a balance stored in an electronic payment card. The balance stored in the card can be increased by inserting the card into the terminal. Connection is made to an "Accounting & Billing" system (ABS) connected to the PSTN in a menu-controlled dialog with the terminal (via the keyboard and display window of the terminal). After a balance desired by the user has been entered (for which the user receives an invoice from the ABS), the payment card can be used to start a telephone session with the PSTN, the costs of which are paid by periodically debiting the balance. The payment card contains, inter alia, an electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM).
The diagram of FIG. 2 diagrammatically shows a protocol which occurs after a user has inserted his payment card into the terminal.
After the card has been inserted into the terminal and the identity has been established and authorized (like further protocol details, this is not indicated in the figures), the "flag" of the payment card is read. (lines 1-7) This normally has (in this example) the value "0": "flag down". If the flag is down, a telephone connection set-up can be started, which is illustrated in FIG. 3. In place thereof, an action can also be started to increase the card balance, see FIG. 4. If the flag has the value "1" ("flag up"), something is not in order and an error routine is first processed; this is shown in FIG. 5. (lines 8-14)
FIG. 3 shows a protocol for set-up and payment of a telephone call through of the card balance. In this process, the initial balance is first investigated to determine whether it is sufficient (lines 20-24); thereafter the connection is set up and periodically an amount P is deducted from the card balance. As soon as the balance is insufficient, the connection is interrupted. (lines 25-29)
FIG. 4 shows a protocol for increasing the card balance. The first action is to raise the flag ("1"). (lines 31-33) This indicates that a "RAISE CREDIT" operation is in progress; only at the end of the latter is the flag lowered ("0"). The amount by which the balance has to be increased is entered via a keyboard of the terminal (the same one as that through which telephone connections can be dialled). After the value of the flag has been read for the purpose of security (it should now be "1"), the card balance is read. (lines 34-39) Connection is also made to ABS (via the telephone network). The card balance and the amount with which the card balance has to be replenished is now transmitted by the terminal to the ABS and registered at the credit and amount registration system (CAR). The terminal then instructs the payment card to increase the balance by the amount (lines 40-43); the card transmits the new balance to the ABS via the terminal. The amount entered is compared in the ABS with the difference between the new and the old card balance and, in the event of agreement, an invoice is prepared for the user. (lines 44-45) The registration of the old card balance in the ABS and the amount entered by the user are then erased. Finally, the flag on the payment card is lowered again. The instruction to do this is received from the ABS using "message authentication" by means of a cryptographic "message authentication code" (MAC). This is checked in the payment card, after which the flag is set by means of a MODIFY instruction to "0". (lines 46-47) The payment card is programmed in such a way that the MODIFY instruction can be carried out only together with a correct MAC. Use of MACs is generally known, inter alia from "Electronic banking using smartcards", SMART CARD '90, Int. Exh. and Conf. PLF Commun., vol. 2, 1990, pages M1-8, or from the book entitled "Security for Communication Networks" by Davis and Price.
FIG. 5 shows a protocol which is processed if, after the payment card has been inserted, it is found that the flag is raised. This indicates that an earlier action to increase the card balance has not been correctly terminated. The incorrectly processed previous action is now correctly terminated by the protocol shown in FIG. 5.
First of all (through lines 50-51), it is determined whether the registration (made during the previous action) of the old card balance and the amount by which the balance had to be increased (CAR) still exist in the ABS. If this information was erased in the previous action, then the only action which has to be carried out is to reset the flag. It may be assumed that only the resetting of the card flag has been omitted in the incorrectly concluded action (lines 52-53).
If the CAR still exists (lines 54-55), it is determined whether the registered card balance is or is not equal to the present card balance (line 56).
If the present card balance is greater than the registered card balance in the CAR, it may be assumed that during the previous session the card balance has, in fact, been increased but that no account thereof has been prepared. In that case, the account is now updated, the CAR is erased and the flag is reset (lines 57-59).
If the present card balance is equal to the card balance registered in the CAR, the previous attempt to increase the balance is now processed, namely on the basis of the amount, known from the CAR, by which the balance had to be increased. The card balance is now increased, the account is prepared, the CAR is erased and the flag is reset (lines 60-66). After an incorrect session to increase the card balance was signalled by detection of the flag and the error was then corrected, the planned session for which the choice was already made (see FIG. 2, lines 12-14) can be started after all (line 67).

Coastal Bend vocalist goes from Bambi to swashbuckling opera tenor
Juan José de León set for professional debut with Dallas Opera
CORPUS CHRISTI - Juan José de León's fifth-grade choir teacher insisted he was tone deaf.
But he kept singing.
"If she hadn't told me I couldn't, I wouldn't have found out that I could," de León said. "So I kind of thank her for doing that."
He admits he wasn't good at first.
"When I started singing I could barely match pitch with the piano," de León said.
That was then.
The 26-year-old tenor is one of 36 singers chosen for the Glimmerglass Opera's Young American Artists Program in Cooperstown, N.Y. He was selected from more than 750 applicants.
De León, whose family moved from Mathis to Corpus Christi when he was 6, counts Bambi in first grade as his first stage role.
But his real interest in music came at Baker Middle School where he signed up for fine arts.
Overcoming his off-key start, de León made all state choir three of his four years at improved at Ray High School. He attributes his interest in opera to the school's choir director Kim Bryce.
"Juan was a wonderful vocal talent with an engaging intellect who responded to teaching," Bryce said, "which made it a lot of fun for me."
Bryce said he encouraged de León in his senior year to learn a Mozart aria, something he usually doesn't suggest because it takes a great level of discipline.
"He did a lovely job, no surprise to me," Bryce said. "It was a spark to Juan at a young age to technically and musically encompass professional level music."
Now de León — who recently finished his master's in music at Southern Methodist University — is rehearsing for Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro," which opened Saturday at Glimmerglass.
"We're very fortunate to have Juan," said Michael Heaston, director of the program. "He's flourishing. Juan has a special talent that audiences will be very interested in."
It has been challenging, de León said.
"Opera is becoming glamorized and directors have performers running around with shirts off or in underwear, so you have to be in pretty good physical condition," de León said. "It's no longer the old park and bark tradition. Audiences want to see more real live action. We have sword fights, and have to be able to jump over tables, while singing and maintaining a connection with the conductor."
The 13-week program ends Aug. 24, and de León returns to Dallas, where he will move into his first house, he said.
Many of Glimmerglass program's vocalists are offered roles with leading opera houses.
In August de León makes his professional debut as Benvolio Montague in The Dallas Opera's production of "Romeo and Juliet."
"We've engaged Juan because he has shown himself to be incredibly gifted," said Jonathan Pell, artistic director for Dallas Opera. "His ease and flexibility injects the music with emotional honesty and dramatic commitment. Juan is very personable, with a warmth that comes through in the spotlight."
His mother is especially proud.
"Juan's CD is always in my car, it's very soothing and calming for me," said his mother Elida Hernandez, who manages a Corpus Christi convenience store. "He sings with such passion, even though I don't understand the words I still cry."

Recommended: Identify bho.dll related errors
External information from Tony Klein:
Important: Some malware also uses the file name bho.dll, for example Adware.BHO.WSZ or Application.Generic.408068 (detected by F-Secure), and Trojan.Adclicker or Adware.Gen (detected by Symantec). Therefore, you should check the bho.dll process on your PC to see if it is a threat. We recommend Security Task Manager for verifying your computer's security. This was one of the Top Download Picks of The Washington Post and PC World.
Summary: Average user rating of bho.dll: based on 17 votes with 10 user comments. 7 users think bho.dll is essential for Windows or an installed application. 3 users think it's neither essential nor dangerous. 4 users suspect danger. 3 users think bho.dll is dangerous and recommend removing it. 3 users don't grade bho.dll ("not sure about it").
A clean and tidy computer is the key requirement for avoiding problems with bho. This means running a scan for malware, cleaning your hard drive using cleanmgr and sfc /scannow, uninstalling programs that you no longer need, checking for Autostart programs (using msconfig) and enabling Windows' Automatic Update. Always remember to perform periodic backups, or at least to set restore points.
Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off doing a repair of your installation, or in the case of Windows 8, executing the DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command. This allows you to repair the operating system without losing data.
To help you analyze the bho.dll process on your computer, the following programs have proven to be helpful: Security Task Manager displays all running Windows tasks, including embedded hidden processes, such as keyboard and browser monitoring or Autostart entries. A unique security risk rating indicates the likelihood of the process being potential spyware, malware or a Trojan. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware detects and removes sleeping spyware, adware, Trojans, keyloggers, malware and trackers from your hard drive.

The Forest Roads are a bit more tricky - but I have the ground data for open roads straight from the Forest Service.

If you earned less than $52,000 last year, or are elderly or disabled, you qualify for free income tax return assistance that could yield a surprisingly large refund check. Eighty trained volunteers will begin preparing returns on Monday (Feb. 3) at six locations as part of Mesa United Way's Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program.
"Many lower income wage earners aren't aware that they may qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit, which can put extra money in their pockets even if they paid little or nothing taxes," said MUW Project Manager Don Jensen. "The EITC provides a much needed financial boost for millions of hard-working Americans, but about one in five people who qualify don't receive it because they're not aware of it or don't file the proper return."
The Internal Revenue Service has declared this Saturday (Jan. 31) as National EITC Day to raise awareness about the credit as the tax season kicks off.
Last year, Mesa VITA volunteers helped local residents get almost $4 million in refunds and credits, Jensen said. "That's money that not only can help you pay for utilities and rent, but also helps the local economy."
Mesa VITA volunteers undergo extensive training and IRS certification to ensure tax returns are prepared accurately and that every available deduction and credit is applied, Jensen said.

I have a new install of 3.5 with multisite enablbed with subdomains. Everthing seems to be setup ok but I cannot upload a theme. When I do I get the following error:
Unable to create directory uploads/2013/01. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
I've searched here and elsewhere looking for possible solutions and ran across the fact that 3.5 does not do the upload path the same way as it was done previously via the blog.dir folder - which would explain why I do not have anything in that folder.
I have tried changing the permissions and set the wp-content/uploads folder to 777 but it did not make a difference. Any thoughts?
Another question - on the settings page of each site (Network Admin/Sites/) what should the upload path be? If they are all the same, how does it differentiate between what uploads are for what sites?
Thanks in advance!

This is a snag because Chan lives across the border, where the Hong Kong Dollar is used.
But then the fantasy, which Montgomery later described as "a drug," hit a snag.
James Cameron, whose Avatar went on to snag Best Motion Picture, delivered a rather colorful speech for his Best Director win.
1570s, "stump of a tree, branch," of Scandinavian origin, cf. Old Norse snagi "clothes peg," snaga "a kind of ax," snag-hyrndr "snag-cornered, with sharp points." The ground sense seems to be "a sharp protuberance." The meaning "sharp or jagged projection" is first recorded 1580s; especially "tree or branch in water and partly near the surface, so as to be dangerous to navigation" (1807). The figurative meaning "obstacle, impediment" is from 1829.
"be caught on an impediment," 1807, from snag (n.). Originally in American English, often in reference to steamboats caught on branches and stumps lodged in riverbeds. Of fabric, from 1967. The transitive meaning "to catch, steal, pick up" is U.S. colloquial, attested from 1895. Related: Snagged; snagging.

She is standing in front of George Segal's work The Diner. This is the first piece visitors to the exhibit American Tableaux will encounter. The Walker Art Center in Minneapolis has arranged 70 modern pieces of art about life in the United States, which are on display in Wilmington until Jan. 4.
Wilmington, the largest city in Delaware with 73,135 residents, was founded in 1731 by Thomas Willing as "Willingtown." Eight years later, it adopted today's name in honor of Spencer Compton (Earl of Wilmington), a favorite of King George II. Nowadays, Wilmington is known for its chemical industry and shipping.
You will find the art museum at the Bank One Center on the Riverfront (800 S. Madison St., 302-571-9590), where visitors will notice the city's prevailing harbor atmosphere. The museum building at 2301 Kentmere Parkway is being refurbished and is scheduled to reopen in January 2005. The history of this institution goes back to 1911, when the Wilmington Society decided to promote "the cultivation of the Fine Arts" but did not have enough money to open its own building. Luckily, in 1931, Joseph Bancroft provided the society with a generous financial gift along with his father's collection of English Pre-Raphaelite paintings.
The 19th century Pre-Raphaelites produced detailed and highly symbolic pictures. These are of beautiful women with flowing red hair and sensual lips, surrounded by tulips and roses. There is, however, one notable exception in the collection, a painting of Sleeping Beauty. The artist, Sir Edward Burne-Jones, depicted a gray-bearded king with six of his followers who are all sound asleep in the midst of wild roses.
The Delaware Art Museum is open 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Tuesday-Friday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday and 1 p.m.-5 p.m. Sunday. Admission is $7 for adults, $5 for seniors, $2.50 for students and free for children under 6.
Another place to check out art in the Wilmington area is the Delaware Center for the Contemporary Arts (200 S. Madison St., 302-656-6466), where regional, national and international artists exhibit their work in seven galleries. The Dupont I Gallery offers an installation by Helen Gamble titled Harbor. She attached eight fragile boats by strings to the ceiling, and each little breeze results in slow movements of the boats.
The DCCA also focuses on the needs of artists, with 26 artists working in studios on the second floor. Every Friday night from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., you can take a studio tour, enjoy refreshments and take a look at the seven galleries for free at Art Loop. On all other days, only the seven galleries are open to the public (Tuesday and Thursday-Saturday 10 a.m.-5 p.m., Wednesday and Sunday noon-5 p.m.). Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for seniors and students and free for children under 12. If you visit both the DCCA and the Delaware Art Museum, make sure you pick up a coupon at the first site you visit to receive $1 off admission at the second site.

Report: Datsyuk named Russian Olympic captain
Jan 15, 2014, 10:16 AM EDT
The Detroit Red Wings will have a pair of players serving as captains in Sochi.
On Wednesday, news broke that Pavel Datsyuk would captain the Russian squad at the 2014 Winter Olympics, according to reports out of Russia (per MLive.com).
Datsyuk, currently an alternate in Detroit to captain Henrik Zetterberg — who'll wear the "C" for Sweden in Sochi — has participated in three previous Olympics but wasn't part of Russia's leadership group in 2010. Aleksey Morozov captained the club in Vancouver, while Ilya Kovalchuk and Alexander Ovechkin served as alternates.
In all, the Red Wings have 10 players going to the Olympics: Datsyuk; Zetterberg, Daniel Alfredsson, Johan Franzen, Niklas Kronwall, Jonathan Ericsson and Jonas Gustavsson (Sweden); Tomas Tatar and Tomas Jurco (Slovakia) and Jimmy Howard (U.S.A.)
Head coach Mike Babcock is the Canadian bench boss.
Zetterberg named Swedish Olympic captain
- valoisvipers - Jan 15, 2014 at 10:34 AM
That sound you hear is the air coming out of Ov's ego.
- joey4id - Jan 15, 2014 at 10:37 AM
hahaha! I actually wrote my comment below before reading yours. Great minds think alike.
- joey4id - Jan 15, 2014 at 10:34 AM
Dats is an AC on his team and is picked over Ovi who is captain. Now there is a telltale sign.
- joey4id - Jan 15, 2014 at 10:35 AM
My name is Joey and I approve this choice.
- polegojim - Jan 15, 2014 at 11:12 AM
What's interesting is that while the C is a privilege, Dats plays the same way with or without it.
That's why you want him wearing the C… the guy is worthy of emulation in all ways hockey
- patthehockeyfan - Jan 15, 2014 at 12:06 PM
You're right about Datsyuk. 100% all the time.
Another story reported that Ilya Kovalchuk was also considered for the captaincy. According to R-Sport, he replied: "A patch on your chest means nothing. To win at the Olympics, everyone in our team must be a captain."
- polegojim - Jan 15, 2014 at 12:44 PM
That's an awesome quote!
- shortsxit34 - Jan 15, 2014 at 4:47 PM
Was that a quote from Dats about Kovalchuk, or a quote from Kovalchuk about not getting the C?
- patthehockeyfan - Jan 15, 2014 at 4:54 PM
shortstix –
I can't say for sure – it didn't sound as if it had anything to do with Dats. Here are a few lines from the story:
"Other candidates were thought to be Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin and former NHL player Ilya Kovalchuk, who were alternate captains in 2010.
Kovalchuk didn't consider the captaincy all that big of a deal.
"A patch on your chest means nothing," Kovalchuk said, according to R-Sport. "To win at the Olympics, everyone in our team must be a captain.""
That was it.
- shortsxit34 - Jan 15, 2014 at 5:00 PM
Thanks, Pat. You're right, it definitely sounds like that was from Kovi in that context.
- timmmah10 - Jan 16, 2014 at 12:59 PM
Datsyuk is the best 2 way player in the league. Not as dominant of an offensive force as Malkin (his size is a huge advantage in the offensive zone) but nobody in the league is better in space than Pavel Datsyuk, IMO. Additionally, Makin is surrounded by top offensive talent on his team, while Datsyuk makes less mobile players like Franzen and Bertuzzi play well above their talent levels.
Anyone would love to have Malkin on their team. But I think Crosby, Datsyuk, and Stamkos all play on a level above Malkin.
- toiletclown - Jan 15, 2014 at 12:21 PM
datsyuk good captain, malkin better player
- ibieiniid - Jan 15, 2014 at 12:40 PM
admit it, you've never even seen Datsyuk play unless it was against the Penguins… and seeing as how you know nothing about the Penguins either (as evidenced by your lack of substance in EVERY post about them), I don't doubt that you've never seen him play, period.
- polegojim - Jan 15, 2014 at 12:48 PM
Both awesome, HOF players, tremendous talent.
Although – I give Dats the edge, since he's been great twice as long at this point, and still performing at a very high level.
- shortsxit34 - Jan 15, 2014 at 4:58 PM
You can repost this when Malkin starts winning multiple Selke trophies.
- hazlydose - Jan 15, 2014 at 3:43 PM
I agree that Datsyuk should be the captain for Russia, but I'm actually surprised that it isn't Kovalchuk. I though he would get the captain and be the torch bearer solely based on the fact that he left the NHL to come home.
- hightopandrocket - Jan 15, 2014 at 10:23 PM
That's the typical Russian response from Kovalchuk, being that he was raised by communist/socialist family, it's not about the individual, rather its the team as a whole. It's all about the commie system, everyone is supposably equal, but they aren't because that's impossible, so lets tell the world how great the system is while the majority get screwed.
- ibieiniid - Jan 16, 2014 at 9:46 AM
you're sounding like a moron here, just sayin.

In North America we rally, get inspired by a Messier, Yzerman, Bobby Clark, ect.
- hightopandrocket - Jan 16, 2014 at 9:55 AM
Thanks buddy, have a great day…
- timmmah10 - Jan 16, 2014 at 12:49 PM
Yeah, that Commie attitude has really HURT Russians in the Olympics in the past… smh
In sports, inspiration is only needed for the unmotivated. If your team rallies around the idea that they are a cohesive unit independent of the captain, it doesn't matter who the captain is. So hightopandrocket, you are saying that the North American teams are more likely to have less independently motivated people, which is kind of a slap in our faces, but kind of true at the same time.
However, I believe a great team is always void of politics.

Take a bow (wow)
Television anchor Randy Price, 61, on why show dogs are like show people – born to it.
How did you and your husband get your start in this?
We had a cocker spaniel and decided to get another. By accident, we ended up buying this dog, and [he] had a great pedigree. We decided to show this one dog.
What was his name?
His registered name was Cutts Island Happy Hooligan. His name around the house was Burt. So he started winning. One thing leads to the other. Then we got another puppy, and we had three dogs, then four dogs, then five, six. . . . At one point, we had 20 dogs.
How do you know who's who?
I know their barks. I know their poops. I know everything about them. They are all totally unique.
Is it true you built a customized kennel in your home in Kittery Point, Maine?
The lower level is all dog. We have 11, mostly retired champions, that live downstairs. People ask, "Don't you have a dog that you bring upstairs and give special treatment to?" And we're like, "And torture the rest of them?"
Who has been your biggest winner so far?
Rudy. He would be invited to Westminster every year. He now lives down in Carver. He does a lot of therapy work. We wanted him to have a nice retirement.
Rudy's son, Boston Bruin, competes this weekend in the National Cocker Spaniel Show in Sturbridge. Any predictions?
He is a far more dynamic dog. Whether he ever has the acclaim, we [don't] know. They need to be "show" mentality – "on" the minute they get out there. Some are naturally like that. It's just like with humans.
Was Bruin named after the hockey team?
We're not necessarily fans, but it's a neat local connection. The irony is, on the day the Bruins won the Stanley Cup, a Canadian judge gave him best in the sporting group award in a show.
This sounds like a full-time job.
Oh, it is. There are shows almost every weekend. We don't go [to them all]; the handlers do.
What's kept you going?
It just fascinated us. You're drawn to the magic in the showroom. When you get in, there's a lot of dirty work. It's political, like any competition. It always starts with the love of the animal.

At first Ellen Daeo thought it was just "uncomfortable indigestion." She'd had barbecue the night before at her son's game in Joplin, Missouri before driving home to Omaha. She popped some antacids and waited for the discomfort to go away.
It didn't. "I never got to feeling better," she said.
So Deao drove to the emergency department at Alegent Creighton Health Bergan Mercy Medical Center, something she admits now she shouldn't have done. She should have called 911. She was having a heart attack.
At Bergan Mercy, she was rushed to the cardiac catheterization lab, where a specialized cardiologist and a team of cardiovascular nurses and technicians performed an angioplasty, a non-surgical procedure to open blocked heart arteries. "It happened so fast I had little time to process it or have a reaction," she said.
Physicians placed a stent , a small metal mesh tube, to hold open her artery. But her interventional cardiologist, Ruby Satpathy, M.D., determined she needed more—so Deao underwent a quintuple bypass.
Deao described herself as "overweight and active" at the time of her heart attack. There was also a family history of heart problems--her father had his first heart attack when he was 39. "I came out of the heart attack knowing I had to lose weight," she said. But she didn't set a goal for the scale. "I just said, 'My body will know.'"
Deao began cardiac rehabilitation at Alegent Creighton Health Lakeside Hospital and met with a dietician. "They were my motivators," she said. "I was beating myself up and they told me, 'Don't live your life in the rearview mirror." The cardiac team also emphasized—"lifestyle changes,"—instead of a diet.
"They were great with giving me information to help me and they were amazingly encouraging," she said. The pounds started to fall off. Deao started with 30 minutes a day of activity at cardiac rehab and she kept walking outside of rehab. Her two-and-a-half mile walks every day progressed to four-mile runs. Now she's up to four to six miles every single day.
In the months after her heart attack, Deao learned portion control. She ate lots of fruits and vegetables. "I didn't deprive myself of anything," she said. "Especially foods I love." She still ate cookies—but just one. She still baked at home, but then gave it away. She had a few bites of dessert when she was out to dinner but then "it stayed at the restaurant." She ate nuts but counted them. She watched her sodium intake and learned how to replace salt with healthy seasonings.
She lost 150 pounds.
Three years after her heart attack—Deao's weight is holding steady. "I'm always concerned about going back," she said. "It's too easy to let yourself slide."
Her advice to anyone who wants to lose weight or become healthier: Commit to change. Believe you can do it. Don't look in the rearview mirror. Don't make long range goals, just focus on another day of healthy eating.
And get a good support group. Her husband, four children and co-workers at Alegent Creighton University Medical Center, where she's worked for 33 years and is currently the interim operations director for information technology, supported her throughout her weight loss . "The joke up here was 'bring the treats,'" she said. "'And bring the broccoli for Ellen.'"
Keep up the good work! Your an inspiration to us all and we love you so much!

The first step towards successful medical care is to see a physician, but for some patients this isn't as simple or easy as it may sound.
A study being presented Sunday, Nov. 6 at the 2011 Annual Scientific Meeting of the American College of Rheumatology in Chicago, finds that many lupus patients with low socioeconomic status are unable to attend scheduled appointments with physicians due to daily obstacles.
"Lupus is a systemic autoimmune disease that requires continuous monitoring of the disease activity and the effects medications may be having on someone," explained Doruk Erkan, M.D., senior author, rheumatologist and clinical co-director at the Mary Kirkland Center for Lupus Care at Hospital for Special Surgery. "Missing an appointment, and thus staying on a medical course without re-evaluating a patient's health status, could cause these individuals avoidable harm."
The researchers examined lupus patients who also had low socioeconomic status at the Mary Kirkland Center for Lupus Care at Hospital for Special Surgery, and found that challenges of socioeconomic status played a large part in causing some of the patients to miss their appointments. The top two reasons for missing their appointment was due to tardy or unreliable transportation, such as ambulettes, or because of insufficient childcare.
"Most of these lupus patients are women," explained Pretima Persad, MPH, lead author of the study and the manager of the Mary Kirkland Center for Lupus Care. "If their childcare falls through, they put their child first and decide to cancel appointments, which can then affect their healthcare."
During the first phase of the study, the research team studied 143 patients and categorized these individuals into three classes, based on the number of appointments they missed. They found that seven patients were "poor" attendees attending only 1-30 percent of their appointments; 66 patients were "average" attendees attendi

Scripps Florida scientists identify possible key to drug resistance in Crohn's disease
JUPITER - Scientists from the Florida campus of the Scripps Research Institute have identified a normally small subset of immune cells that may play a major role in the development of Crohn's disease generally and in disease-associated steroid resistance specifically.
The study, published this week in an advance, online edition of the Journal of Experimental Medicine, focused on Th17 cells, part of a family of white blood cells that have been implicated in numerous autoimmune diseases, including Crohn's disease.
In the new study, the researchers found that a subset of TH17 cells in humans expresses the multidrug transporter MDR1 and that these cells are linked to inflammation in Crohn's patients. MDR1—a protein famous for promoting drug-resistance in tumors—may also act as a survival and steroid resistance factor in T cells, particularly in harsh environments such as the inflamed gut mucosa of Crohn's disease patients.

Judge dismisses rights claim against Del Mar officials
Former instructor's other issues to be tried Sept. 18
Benitez's breach of contract and violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act claim against the college, however, will go to trial Sept. 18.
Benitez, a former criminal justice instructor at Del Mar, says school officials fired him in January 2005 after he sought due process for student Melody Lopez's claims of racial harassment by a college employee. He filed the suit last September.
Head dismissed claims against Del Mar College President Carlos Garcia;, Board of Regents President Gabriel Rivas;, Vice President of Student Development Jose Rivera;, Vice President of Instruction Rosie Garcia; Legal Professions Department chair Stonewall Van Wie; and former Dean of Business Ann Matula.
Houston attorney Lee Solomon, representing Benitez, would not comment on the motions Thursday.
Del Mar College attorney Augustin Rivera Jr. said some of the plaintiffs' claims against the college also were dismissed, although he did not specify which ones.

Is It All That Shocking For A Coach To Make The Cuts?
Posted August 28, 2013
I'm surprised how big of an issue it seems to have Chip Kelly make the roster cuts. After all he's the one that has to coach these guys, so why shouldn't he have the stay in who stays or goes? I'm sure there may be a few guys who have some financial needs that forces the team to maybe keep one or two guys, but as far as the rest go it should be on Kelly to choose his guys. Howie Roseman isn't a coach and shouldn't have a stay in who the coach keeps. I'm sure Howie loves all of his draft picks. I'm sure in his mind all of them will eventually pan out, but that doesn't mean those guys need to stay. This story seems bigger than it needs to be.

I live in the tropics and we are facing both erratic rain followed by alot of heat plus the working environment is mostly air-conditioned. So wet, hot, cold, cold, wet, hot combinations, most people around me starts to get sick. This product really helps. They sell them locally where i live but iherb's shipments tend to have more recent manufacturing dates. The product really works, if anyone in the family is generally feeling a bout of cold coming on, we take this for a few days and the severity of the symptoms and in some cases, the cold does not persist. Great product, we've been a fan for years.
great product

Beef Stroganoff With Rice

|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|Bell peppers
|2 , chopped

|To Taste
|To Taste
|3 Teaspoon
|1 Tablespoon
In a bowl add 2 cups of water,2 tablespoons of ghee,let it come to a boil,once the water starts to boil,add rice to it & cover the lid.Let the rice cook.
In a pan saute the bell pepper till it becomes slightly soft.Add garlic to it & saute it with the bell pepper.To this add meat cubes to it & cook it till it becomes pink on the center.Add the remaining ingredients to this & cook it well.Keep it running on the heat till the rice is cooked.
Once the rice is cooked,spread it out on a plate & drop a spoon or two of the beef in middle of the rice.

In this course, author Jan Kabili introduces the photo organizing, editing, and sharing features of Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, the less expensive version of Photoshop that's ideal for casual photographers who want to achieve professional results. The course covers importing, organizing, and finding photos with the Organizer. It explains how and when to use each of the editing workspaces—from the simple Quick Fix and Guided Edit workspaces to the Full Edit workspace for enhancing your photos—including making photo corrections, retouching, compositing images, and adding text. The final chapter offers creative ways to share photos with Elements, including print projects like greeting cards, calendars, and books, emailing photos, and posting them on Facebook and Flickr.
The default layout of the Organizer is called Thumbnail view. For many people, this is the main view in which they will use the Organizer. For some, it's the only view. Others may find it useful to switch between this Thumbnail view and another popular view, a folder-based view called Folder Location view, which I will cover in the next movie. These two views have a lot of features in common, but there are a few differences between them, and that's what I want to focus on here. So here in the default Thumbnail view, you can see a thumbnail-sized copy of every photo that you've brought into this Organizer catalog.
It's important to understand that this is not a display of every photo on your hard drive, like your Finder shows you; it's just the photos that you've imported into Element's Organizer. In Thumbnail view, photo thumbnails can be displayed only by date. There is no way to sort the thumbnails by any other criteria. The only choices for ordering the thumbnails are here in the Sort menu and there are only two: Newest First and Oldest First, meaning newest capture date and oldest capture date. And you cannot change the order of thumbnails by trying to click and drag them around here in the Media Browser.
They're fixed in place and displayed by date only. As you take more and more digital photos, your collection of thumbnails here is going to get very large. If you need more room to view the photos, you can collapse the Task pane over on the right to the edge of the screen, by clicking on its inner border and dragging like this. To see more of your thumbnails, you can use the scrollbar which is on the right side of Media Browser, or you can click on a thumbnail and then use the arrow keys on your keyboard, the right arrow key to go in this direction and the left arrow key this way.
Most of the controls and the bars at the top of the screen aren't unique to Thumbnail view. The menu bar, the Search field, the sizing controls all work the same way here in Thumbnail view as they do in Folder Location view. The Task pane is pretty much the same too, except that when you have your Media Browser expanded like this and you click on a different tab, the Media Browser goes back to occupy just part of the Organizer so that you can see the controls in the Task pane on the right.
In either Thumbnail view or Folder Location view, you can choose whether or not to see identifying information under a photo thumbnail. And that's done from the View menu. But before I go there to enable dates or file names under each photo thumbnail, I need to make the thumbnails big enough that I will be able to see that. So I will click and drag the Sizing slider over to the right, and then I will go up to the view menu and I will select Details, and that will show me the date and time that the photo was captured.
If I want to see the file names too, in the View menu, I need to enable not only Show File Names, but also Details. And there is the file name underneath the date and time of capture. The main thing that makes Thumbnail view unique is that it shows you everything-- all your photo thumbnails--and I think that's both its upside and its downside. It's often useful to have one place to go to scroll through all of your photos. On the other hand, because there's no real way to group the thumbnails here, apart from using the organizing features like albums and keyword tags, it can be difficult to get quickly to the particular photos.
A good example is the exercise files for this course. I've asked you to switch over to Folder Location view when you trying to access particular exercise files because the exercise files are organized into folders, and for most people, it is easier to find things by folder. So if you do want to switch to Folder Location view, where do you do that? From the Display menu up here at the top-right of the Organizer. From here, you can access not only Folder Location view, but Import Batch view, which displays the photo thumbnails in the order in which they were imported; Date view, which we will look at; and a Full Screen and Compare views, which I will cover too.
And in the very next movie, I will be focusing on Folder Location view.
There are currently no FAQs about Photoshop Elements 10 Essential Training.

A few weeks ago there was laughter around the NFL because the primetime game Thanksgiving Day featured two losing teams: the Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers. But now, there is a renewed excitement.
Both teams have losing records at 5-6, but the winner moves closer to securing the sixth and final spot for the AFC playoffs, and stays within striking distance of the AFC North leading Cincinnati Bengals.

Working on traveling to every country in the world and this was the 4th out of 202 countries. The staff there was very polite. Especially the male bartender. There were a couple of waiting staff that seemed to be unhappy with their job. I enjoyed the hotel, a reminder of the things i take for granted."
From the moment we arrived, until we left, all our needs were met, Friendly on time driver Manner was waiting for us after we cleared customs with a our name on a sign. We were at the Grand Pladdium in 40 minutes., Manner answered every question we had. Room was ready when we got there at 1:15 Jamacia time. Were greeted by friendly staff and a rum runner. The honeymoon suite was perfect for our needs with a stunning view of the ocean. Plenty of choices for dinners, bars were easy to get drinks at. An adult only pool, sunset cove, huge pool central to everything with beach directly behind. Sports bar with pool tables, ping pong and fooze ball table. Snacks always available here. Nigril buffet had all the food you could want. Grounds were clean, staff was willing to do anything we asked. Couldn't have enjoyed ourselves more."
It was a short trip for us but the place is very nice. the only downside for me was that the mattress was a bit rough."
Yes this hotel is a bit old and dated but the rooms were very clean and comfortable and the staff were super helpful with everything from arranging trips for us to giving recommendations for places to eat. The fact that it is right on the beach is one of the reasons we booked and yes people on the beach will try to sell you everything imaginable but a polite no thank you usually sends them on their way. The beach is clean and well maintained with sun loungers for guests to use and a bar for drinks and a restaurant for food. The power did go out a couple of times and with it the water, but it came back within a couple of hours most times and was not a huge problem, this happens all over Jamaica, you don't notice in bigger hotels as they have backup generators. Overall I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel and would recommend it for everyone, it was great service at a reasonable price."
Staff was so friendly, and the rooms and amenities were great considering the price. Very close proximity to all of the beautiful restaurants on the cliffs. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Negril on a budget."
It was our first time to a nude resort. We only were able to spend one night at Hedo2. It was a awesome time would go back again. The price was high for the room quality butwas clean. We were at a other location for 6 days and Hedo for 1 night. We loved the water at both resorts but my first trip in the water at Hedo stepped on a sea urchin made the next two weeks a pain to walk. The catamaran ride to Ricks cafe was very awesome clothing optional "))).I would rate 7 out of 10."
Overnight stay at a really nice place ,has been a classic old home at some stage with a sweeping formal staircase.Huge rooms basic but good breakfast.The road in off the main road is not feel kept and a bit rough but don't let that put you off excellent place to stay."
very good, although it was obvious there, were changes and or renovations, the staff made every effort towards a comfortable and enjoyable and secure stay. Access to the beech was too limited, especially at a time when the evenings were longer."
Beautiful beach location. Intimate old style atmosphere. Very peaceful. Excellent friendly service. Just the right place for a quiet getaway. If you like a tv in your room know that there isn't one. Also the internet signal in our room was not good enough for streaming movies. The restaurant is good but quite formal."
We were visiting friends in Manchester and finished our trip by staying here before going to the airport."
The overal experience was lovely. I booked a king size bed for my partner and I. But when we got to the room it was double beds. We decided not to complain because we were just too tired. Overall our experience was lovely. The staff was friendly and very pleasant. I'm planning to visit again this year and would love to stay at this hotel again."

The main component of this survey design was a national cross-sectional survey of adults in the United States who either (1) were currently married or living together, (2) were single parents with children under 18 in the household, or (3) had been married or had lived with a partner of the opposite sex within the past two years. Approximately two-thirds of American households met one of these three requirements at the time of the survey. Another objective of the survey was to generate comparisons of the incidence of intrafamily physical violence by race and ethnicity. Variables in this data collection include number of couples, single parents, and children in the household, respondent's race, ethnicity, sex, age, and marital status, number of persons in the household previously married, years lived in the community, and employment/occupation information.

March 21, 2013By Fred GreethamOBR Senior Reporter Phil Dawson might someday leave his heart in San Francisco, but for now it has been left in Cleveland. For the past 14 years Dawson toiled on the shores of Lake Erie kicking in inclement weather and swirling winds. After signing a one-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers, Dawson wanted to reach out one last time to the city of Cleveland in a conference call on Thursday. The gesture even impressed the 49ers public relations staff. It was Phils idea and a first-class gesture to reach out to you guys, Bob Lange of the 49ers public relations staff said. I have so much respect for the Browns organization, the fans the city I will be rooting for them, Dawson said. Its been some of the best year of my life. There is nothing but positive feelings in my mind. I look forward to seeing how the organization grows and I look forward to my new experiences (with the 49ers). It seems like a win-win. The Browns have declined to say if they made...

looking to build a solid friendship then more...
I consider myself genuine and kind. I can be very sarcastic at times, but I only mean it in fun. I have a huge sense of humor and try not to take life so seriously, so my ideal match would have to be able to take a joke or even better dish it out. I want to be able to experience new things with my potential match ---I'm a huge fan of camping and excersising, I believe good health is the route to a healthy mind and body. I love to go cycling, running with my dog, paddle boarding, and kayaking and would love my match to join. All my family is up in Maine, i've been in FL since 04 so I am very independent. I have a group of close friends I hang out with. I just bought my first home last year and am super proud of it.

God bless this broken road that led me straight to you...
I'm a kid at heart with an old soul and an amazingly big heart. I love God and want my relationship to revolve around God and have him in it. God takes the type of relationship you have to the next level. I'm not a radical christian but I want my partner to understand that I want God in our relationship. I love to dance, sing to R&B and worship music. I love to watch movies and play board games, video games, listen to music, and relax from time to time. I really like to enjoy the outdoors and do activities such as fishing and mountain biking and it would be amazing if my partner liked the outdoors. I love playing sports and am really competitive. I like to watch the food network and get ideas and try them out from time to time. I'm recently divorced after being separated for 2 years and I really am grateful for the experience because I learned so much and it made me a better man, a stronger man, and a man of faith. I'm a huge goof ball sometimes, I love jokes and having a good laugh. Most people would say that I'm a transparent person because once I'm comfortable with a person I don't hide anything. I'm very sociable and a big people person. I would like my partner to be sociable as well. People would consider me and extrovert type of person; I like being around people. If you have any questions, feel free to message me and I'll be more than happy to reply.

I like places that play great music and where I can dance. Blue Martini, Opa Tavern, Mr. Moes, Sandbar, South Beach, Brickell. 100 Montaditos is awesome, AMF Pembroke Pines and Bird Bowl. Thats all that comes to mind at this moment.
Top Gun, Inception, The Kingdom of Heaven, Worshiping God, Country music, Rap, Hip Hop, House, Salsa, Merengue, Bachata, Dancehall . Chinese food, ribs, pasta, sea food, sweets. The Walking Dead, Gladiator, Vampire Diaries, and the list can go on ..
For fun I like doing anything outdoors. Fishing, biking, playing sports, going to the beach, dancing, singing, i just like to be active.
I'm not big into reading unless it's on my hobbies or the Bible. I love to read about history and I want to get my hands of 50 shades of grey. Yes, I said it. lol

Reminder on P.O.W.!...
Due to my incredible lateness with everything over the last three months, we have three polls running at one time--Challenges 41, 42, and 44--and Challenge 45 will be going to poll tomorrow afternoon. We could use some viewers to vote on these, and at least stop by and take a look at the effort being taken.
Challenge 46 will be up after 10:00 pm today, and will run a bit longer than normal due to the holidays.
No position or belief, whether religious, political or social, is valid if one has to lie to support it.--Alj Mary
