VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/04/12 -- Crosshair Energy Corporation (TSX:CXX)(NYSE MKT:CXZ)(NYSE Amex:CXZ) ("Crosshair" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of its 2012 metallurgy testing of mineralized samples from the Juniper Ridge uranium project in southern Wyoming. Total U3O8 extraction from 63 to 94 percent was achieved at a somewhat lower acid consumption than what had been recorded in the historic tests.
"These results are significant because the samples representing the average grade of the mineralized zone achieved an average 77 percent extraction," said Mark Ludwig, Crosshair President and Chief Executive Officer. "Following these very positive results, additional metallurgical analysis will be conducted to test potential uranium recovery in simulated heap leach conditions."
Eleven bottle roll tests were completed on five core composite samples representing the high grade (0.2920% and 0.0845% U3O8), average grade (0.0674% U3O8), and low grade (0.0435% and 0.0273% U3O8) mineralized zones from the Juniper Ridge property. The highest uranium extractions of 85 to 93 percent were obtained from the two highest grade composites. Six samples representing the average grade of the resource ranged from 68 to 84 percent with an average extraction of 77 percent. Three tests on the lowest-grade composite yielded uranium extractions ranging from 63% to 77%, the latter resulting from leaching parameters considered to be near-optimum.
Uranium extraction was also determined to be extremely rapid, with essentially all of it taking place during the first four hours. These results are generally consistent with the 89 to 92 percent uranium extractions obtained in 1978 by Hazen Research on finely ground samples from the Juniper Ridge deposit. The primary objective of this 2012 analysis was to assess the metallurgical response of the uranium mineralization from relatively coarse samples (-0.25 in.).
Testing was conducted at Inter-Mountain Labs (IML) in Sheridan, Wyoming, by R and D Enterprises, Inc. of Casper Wyoming, under the supervision of T.P. McNulty and Associates of Tucson, Arizona, all of whom are independent of Crosshair.
About Crosshair
Crosshair is a prominent player in the exploration and development of uranium and vanadium projects in the US and Canada. Its Bootheel and Juniper Ridge projects have established resources and are located in uranium mining friendly Wyoming. Bootheel has the potential to be mined using in-situ recovery methods while Juniper Ridge appears to be suitable for an open-pit heap leach operation. The CMB Uranium/Vanadium Project is located in Labrador, Canada and has four currently defined resources - C Zone, Area 1, Armstrong and Two Time Zone. The Crosshair team is composed of knowledgeable and experienced professionals with global experience in exploration, mining and corporate finance that are committed to operating in an environmentally responsible manner.

Oak Park artist/activist resurrects a kindred spirit
She is so much like me," explains Oak Park activist, sociologist, and artist Bobbie Raymond. "The more I read and absorbed about French artist Vigee Le Brun, it was uncanny. It was like I was meeting a long-lost relative. I feel a distinct kinship with her. We're both artists and survivors who always look adversity in the face and keep going."
Raymond is talking about the subject of her one-act play, An Imaginary Interview with Elizabeth Louise Vigee LeBrun, which will be presented at the 19th Century Charitable Association, 178 N. Forest Avenue, next Monday afternoon, April 8. The new drama depicts the playwright traveling back in time to interview the artist in 1835 at her country residence in Louvenciennes.
But the play was inspired by a very captivating local mystery.
Three years ago, the Oak Park Art League, of which Raymond is a very active member, got a phone call from a couple who had moved into a Galewood bungalow and discovered an old painting in their basement. 220 years old.
"It was blistering, cracking — in rather poor condition," remembers Raymond. "They almost put the painting in a garage sale! But once we saw it, immediately Oak Park networking kicked in. New York art specialists ultimately identified the work and verified its authenticity. It was painted by LeBrun in the late 18th century but had been considered lost since the early 1800s. I got hooked immediately and began doing extensive research."
The painting was sold at Sotheby's in New York in 2010 and now, completely restored, it will be exhibited in a new museum in Asia established by a billionaire art collector with a vast chemical empire in Taiwan. He purchased 70 other "old master" paintings for this collection, too.
The subject of the long-missing LeBrun portrait was Russian Princess Tyufyakina. Her husband kept it for many years but then mysteriously the painting seems to have vanished. How it ended up in a bungalow basement in northern Illinois 175 years later is still pretty much an unsolved mystery.
LeBrun (1755-1842) painted over 700 portraits of European nobility in her 87 years, during a period when women artists were a distinct rarity. She was especially well known for her portraits of Marie Antoinette. There are LeBrun paintings in over 100 museums in 21 countries. A dozen of her portraits are in the Louvre and 20-some at Versailles.
At least 10 books have been written about the artist and Raymond read all of them — many in French — as she prepared to write her play.
"Vigee LeBrun was quite resourceful and supported her family from her early teens. She became the close friend and confidante of Marie Antoinette and did over 30 portraits just of her," Raymond notes. "She was part of the French Royal Court and met Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, who were the darlings of Paris. LeBrun was creative and courageous. If she had stayed with her husband in her townhouse in Paris at the time of the French Revolution, she too would have been guillotined."
Actress Sara Nichols, an Oak Park Festival Theatre regular, wife of actor and author Kevin Theis, will be playing the role of artist Vigee LeBrun.
Raymond clarifies that even though her play is an imaginary interview, everything is factual.
"Nothing is fictional," she says, "except my being there. I go back in time to interview her. We just talk and share like two women artists, getting together at her country house close to Versailles. LeBrun's husband and others had really been draining all her resources. I think people will find her story very captivating. She was the finest woman artist of her time."
The play, "An Imaginary Interview with Elizabeth Louise Vigee LeBrun," will be presented at the 19th Century Charitable Association on Monday, April 8, at 1:15. $10 is the suggested donation. If one is interested in eating lunch and then staying for the program, the charge is $27. For reservations: 708-386-2729.

Thursday And-1 Links: Steve Nash went through a full practice with Lakers
Dec 20, 2012, 4:28 PM EDT
Here is our regular look around the NBA — links to stories worth reading and notes to check out (stuff that did not get its own post here at PBT) — done in bullet point form. Because bloggers love bullet points.
• Steve Nash went through a five-on-five, full contact practice with the Lakers Thursday. Baring any major setback, expect him to play Saturday night for the Lakers when they face a hot Golden State squad.
• Jrue Holiday might be back the 76ers lineup on Friday. Might.
• The Kings are not sure when they will get Tyreke Evans back in the lineup.
• Why have the Thunder won 12 in a row and the Clippers 11? Great offense and soft schedules.
• Dave D'Alessandro of the Newark Star-Ledger just ripped Deron Williams of the Nets in a column Thursday. The best line: "This has less to do with how you play — which is bad enough, you readily admit nowadays — than how you act, which is just one evening gown shy of a diva."
• At the other end of the New York star spectrum, how Carmelo Anthony has become more efficient (think catch-and-shoot).
• A fantastic look from Zach Lowe at the odd big man pairings in the NBA.
• Mark Cuban basically live tweeted passing a kidney stone. Sounds like it hurts. A lot.
• John Hollinger talks about the jump from ESPN to the Memphis Grizzlies front office.
• A Q&A with promising Warriors' rookie Harrison Barnes. If he learns to be aggressive and attack consistently, watch out.
• A Los Angeles jury returned a $17.3 million verdict against Clippers owner Donald Sterling for a fire in an apartment building he owns (buying and holding apartment complexes around LA is his primary business). Other tenants in the building settled before trial. This didn't apparently bother Sterling, who was in the Clippers locker room Wednesday night after their 11th consecutive win leading "hip-hip hooray chants."
• An article in Forbes about why Louisville should be first in line for the next NBA franchise that wants to move. The entire city of Seattle is shooting you a glare, Louisville.
• The NBA is tweaking the All-Star Saturday format a little so that the conferences are competing against each other with the winner getting money for charity. None of the events change — slam dunk contest, three-point contest, skills challenge and that Shooting Stars thing — this is just an element thrown in for… I don't know why. Probably to maybe make someone interested in the skills and Shooting Stars things, but I can't see that working.
• Amazing interview at The Classical with the guys behind one of the great blogs of all time "Fire Joe Morgan."

Looking forward to seeing Nash back on the court!
- savvybynature - Dec 20, 2012 at 6:00 PM
Louisville would be a great choice for an NBA franchise!
No disrespect to Seattle, which is also a great city.
- balfe13 - Dec 20, 2012 at 8:14 PM
Louisville? Seriously? Do you not understand how sports-hungry Seattle people are? We sell out soccer games on a regular basis, for goodness' sakes… Seattle people will clearly support any pro sports team.
- jerdogthompson - Dec 20, 2012 at 10:46 PM
Really Kurt……Clippers had an easy schedule? Lets see they have beaten Memphis, Lakers, Spurs (twice) Miami, lost in OT to OKC at home with a last second shot in regulation that CP3 makes 8 outta 10 times?
Correct me here but 6 outta those 11 came on the road son. Players are in the league for a reason, any team can beat any team on any given night. Last I checked that's why they play.
So if the Clippers had an EASY schedule, what have your coveted Lakers had? Not to mention, how did they fair in the last ten? You need to get into the present day Kurt as you're struggling to hold onto what the Clippers were not what they are. Same thing for the Lakers, that's the way they were not the way they are.
Love to see a response.

NTSB says dropping legal limit for blood-alcohol level in drivers will save lives
"We hope there's a deterrent effect. We hope that folks will be responsible and realize either that they're endangering other people if they exceed that limit or they're going to face some severe consequences if they do."
Draxler said he could also see support in Utah for the NTSB recommendations. The proposal has the support of the Utah Highway Patrol if it will take even one drunken driver off the road.
"We support the NTSB's decision to reduce fatalities through a reduction of the BAC levels," Cpl. Todd Johnson, public information officer for the Utah Highway Patrol, said. Johnson said he has seen drivers who were impaired with levels around 0.03 percent and 0.04 percent.
"However, we recognize that it will take time to pass legislation, to make it effective in Utah and to train officers and prosecutors if it were to become effective."
Utah and Oregon were the first two states to adopt a 0.08 percent level in 1983. In 2001, federal law was passed to allow lawmakers to withhold federal funding for highways if a states did not implement enforcement of the 0.08 level. Delaware was the last state to adopt the 0.08 percent level in 2004.
What does .05 look like?
Blood-alcohol content can vary according to factors such body weight, gender, age, medication and the type of drink. On average, the Utah Highway Patrol estimates that driving impairment can begin anywhere from a half to two drinks, or 0.01 to 0.02 percent. Concentration, judgment and reactions are delayed from one to four drinks or 0.03 to 0.07 percent.
Battling drunken driving
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has measured ways to prevent injury and death from impaired driving:
Actively enforcing existing 0.08 percent blood alcohol level laws, minimum legal drinking age laws, and zero tolerance laws for drivers younger than 21 years old in all states.
Promptly taking away the driver's license of people who drive while intoxicated.
Putting health promotion efforts into practice that influence economic, organizational, policy, and school/community action.
Using community-based approaches to alcohol control and DUI prevention.
Requiring mandatory substance abuse assessment and treatment, if needed, for offenders.
Raising the unit price of alcohol by increasing taxes.

'Recession has ended…but not for us,' AEM 1st vice chair testifies at T&I hearing
James McCullough, Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) first vice chair and CEO and president of CNH Construction, testified on Sept. 29 before the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure about lagging jobs in the manufacturing industry and the need for new national policies to spur U.S. competitiveness globally.
Earlier in the day, McCullough participated in the launch of "I Make America," a national grassroots campaign created by AEM to increase awareness about how vital equipment manufacturing is to the U.S. economy and global competitiveness.
"Our members don't just make equipment, they make prosperity," McCullough told the House Committee. "Each individual who works in our industry plays a part in making America a better place – safer, cleaner, more prosperous, more efficient, more competitive – and they each have a story to tell about how they help 'make America.'"
Since 2001, more than 4.7 million manufacturing jobs have been lost. "I Make America" is a resource for workers in the manufacturing industry, as well as the businesses that rely on them and the communities they support, to send a message to Congress that America needs new manufacturing policies that will create jobs now and into the future.
Addressing Committee Chairman James Oberstar, McCullough stated, "The big news earlier this week was that the recession has ended. Well, Mr. Chairman and members of the Committee, let me respectfully tell you, it doesn't feel that way to us."
Citing numbers that indicate the manufacturing sector is trending up, McCullough posed the question, "Up from where? That trend is still not strong, and our numbers are nowhere near where they were before the economy imploded."
AEM and McCullough are using the "I Make America" campaign to generate support for a new manufacturing policy that creates jobs by doing two fundamental things:
• Generate economic activity by rebuilding and modernizing America's infrastructure – roads, bridges, sewer, clean water and flood control systems.
• Help our farmers and manufacturers create more jobs in the U.S. by exporting their products to new markets around the world.

5 Quick Questions about Barack Obama's Tax Increases On the Rich
Higher taxes on the rich have been the holy grail of Barack Obama's presidency. He spent four years talking about it, ran his reelection campaign on it and was willing to take the nation over the fiscal cliff to get it.
Now, he has gotten his wish. Taxes on the wealthy have gone up.
1) So, is this going to fix the deficit? No, the deficit is actually getting larger because of new spending in the fiscal cliff deal.
2) Did we only raise taxes on the rich? No, of course not. The payroll tax went up, too.
3) Will it create more jobs? No, in fact it will slow down job creation a bit because it will take money that job creators could have used for investment and move it into the government's coffers.
4) Will it help the economy? No, in fact it will probably slow down the economy a bit by transferring money from the private sector to the government.
5) So, what did raising taxes on the rich actually accomplish? It reduced "inequality" by helping to make everyone a little poorer and it made a great campaign issue for Obama. So, there's that.
So, if as expected, the economy continues to splutter along, the jobless rate stays high and the deficit remains huge, the question for Obama then becomes, "Now what?"

1972 Ford Bronco half cab. The truck came out of Mississippi and had been in storage for several years. I bought it with the hopes of restoring it, but do to job reasons will not be able to do so (moving out of state). So it is once again back on ebay and looking for a new home. It runs and drives, could use a carb rebuild. has some rust in the lower part of the doors. The door posts are all solid and I didn't see any rust in them. The bed is rusted in the front part, but there are patch panels that come with it. The hood has some bondo in it, not sure how much, there is some rust in the engine compartment on the passanger side fender. Looks like the battery tray is also rusted out. The windshield is cracked and would need to be replaced, the weather stripping on the doors and windows would also need to be replaced. In general it needs a restoration. It has been lifted, looks to me like a body lift 4-6 inches. I had intentions of removing it and doing a 2 inch lift. Tires are in good shape with plenty of tread left, wheels are ok nothing special. I have owned it for a couple of months so I don't know everything about it. Please ask questions and if I can answer them or find the infomation for you I will. If more pictures are needed let me know.
I do have the Bronco listed locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early.
On Oct-18-13 at 13:38:10 PDT, seller added the following information:
I added a few pictures, I did notice that it only has one fuel tank, not sure what happened or why one was removed, the frame is solid I didn't see any bad areas on it. It has a single stick transfer case. looks like transfer case and trans have had work on them, look clean and they have been repainted.

Amelia Island 2013: 50 years of the Ferrari-slaying Ford GT40Wed, 13 Mar 2013 19:29:00 EST
Originally developed with the sole purpose of being a Ferrari rival to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Ford GT40 became a prominent racing machine in the 1960s in both Europe and the US. Not wanting to leave such an important car out of the fun, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance also took time out from its other celebrations to recognize the 50-year anniversary of the GT40.
Over its short lifespan, the GT40 was offered in a handful of configurations, but the classic short-tailed (Mk I and Mk II) bodystyles were well represented... especially in Gulf livery. James Glickenhaus (of Ferrari P4/5 fame) had his bright yellow Mk IV in the field, and there were several others in this bodystyle, including one that has seen plenty of time on the track judging by its chipped-up nose.
As a fitting statement for the car's lengthy racing history, GT40 Chassis Number 1075 won this year's Concours de Sport award. This car took home the checkered flag at Le Mans in 1968 and 1969, and racked up a total of six wins in just 11 races.
Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference roomFri, 08 Mar 2013 19:15:00 EST
A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
Drive Ford's new Mustang in Need For Speed RivalsMon, 16 Dec 2013 11:01:00 EST
If waiting for the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang to hit dealerships is just too tall of an order, you'll be happy to hear that there is now an alternative means of getting behind the wheel of America's favorite pony car. The Mustang is making its video game debut in Need For Speed Rivals.
"We worked closely with the development team at EA to provide them with engineering data for the new Mustang, several months before we showed it to the rest of the world," said Ford product licensing manager Mark Bentley. "Computer design models enabled the game developers to create an accurate representation of the new Mustang before it goes on sale."
Players will have access to five unique designs for the Mustang, allowing a degree of individuality beyond solid colors and decals. According to Digital Marketing Manager Andrea Zuehlk of Ford, those designs are drawn from the four most popular designs on the Mustang Customizer, an online, mobile and tablet app that allows the public to design their own custom Mustang. A fifth design, penned by drift racer Vaughn Gittin, Jr., is also available.

A nationwide campaign on raising the awareness of voters in Ukraine about their legal rights and electoral procedures, which is supported by an OSCE project, has started on the eve of the parliamentary elections.
"Informing voters about their rights and the election process in a timely manner is an important precondition for holding democratic elections," said Ambassador Madina Jarbussynova, the OSCE's project coordinator in Ukraine.
According to a report posted on the OSCE Web site, the awareness campaign will address the voting procedure, home voting, the verification of voter lists, protection of the secrecy of the vote and the prevention of voter harassment and vote buying.
During the campaign, publications aimed at raising voter awareness will be produced and distributed, audio and video public service announcements broadcast, and a dedicated Web site developed.
The parliamentary elections in Ukraine are scheduled for October 28 2012.

Extraabdominal fibromatosis in retroperitoneal space
ABSTRACT Fibromatosis or desmoid tumor covers a broad spectrum of benign fibrous tissue proliferations. It is characterized by infiltrative growth and a tendency towards recurrence; however, unlike sarcoma, it never metastasizes.
We report on a case of extraabdominal fibromatosis originating from the retroperitoneal space in a 43-year-old woman. Seven years earlier she had undergone ureterolysis and ureteroureterostomy for ureteral obstruction. Computed tomography revealed a tumor between the iliocostalis and the psoas muscle. Histopathological evaluation revealed uniform proliferation of spindle cells, with a moderate amount of collagen fibers, suggesting extraabdominal fibromatosis (desmoid tumor). The tumor was surgically resected, and since then, the patient has remained asymptomatic without any restrictions of daily living activities and without any signs of tumor recurrence during the two-year follow-up.
Complete resection is the treatment of choice. Adjuvant therapy using non steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, tamoxifen, interferon, anti-neoplastic agents, and radiotherapy, either alone or in combination finds application for unresectable or recurrent cases.

Article: Desmoid tumor within lesser sac[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Desmoid tumors or fibromatoses comprise a number of benign fibrous proliferative lesions that have local infiltrative growth and tendency to recur after incomplete excision. They never metastasize. The authors present a 31-year old woman who, due to epigastric pain and palpable mass detected on presentation, underwent the excision of firm tumorous mass, 210x140x115mm in diameter, from the lesser sac. Compressing the splenic vein, the tumor caused left-sided portal hypertension which subsided after the mass was removed. The recovery was uneventful. The histological examination verified typical desmoid tumor. Twelve years after surgery, the patient remained symptom-free with no signs of recurrence.Srpski arhiv za celokupno lekarstvo 01/2006; 134(9-10). DOI:10.2298/SARH0610438C · 0.17 Impact Factor

My 3rd time staying here and as always, was pleased. The room was spotless, staff was courteous and helpful. Its always so nice to have an uncluttered beach for the kids to run around on. Almost want to keep this secret to myself!
We stayed in the Ruskin Hotel in March, 2015. I had seen on the internet that it was a Holiday Inn but apparently it was an old ad because it is locally owned now. It was a disappointment. The choices in Ruskin are very limited and I would recommend driving a little in order to avoid staying here. We had...
There are limited choices of hotels/motels in the Ruskin area. Between three choices with similar revues and price, we chose Ruskin Inn. We could see some of the criticisms leveled and justified. Our room closet carpet was damp and musty, fresh towels not left after the room was cleaned, mediocre breakfast offerings, old stained upholstered chairs in the breakfast room....
The owners are extremely rude! They will wake up up and come in your room when you have the Do Not Disturb on. Did it to me twice. Pool is dirty and they treat you like they are doing you a favor by letting you pay them to stay. I'll sleep in my car before going back.
This place had what we needed on short notice. Clean comfortable beds, pet friendly, felt safe. Carpets were dirty & musty and the place was a bit run down. Breakfast was just ok. Night staff just ok. Would stay again if had to.
What can I say about Ruskin? This little hotel was formerly a Holiday Inn. It's no wonder they lost their franchise. It's musty, dirty, and not nearly worth the money. Not to mention the complimentary breakfast was still frozen. No thanks!
After not being able to find a hotel, that accepts pets near Lido Key, on short notice on a Saturday night, we stumbled upon the Ruskin Inn. Check in was quick and the desk clerk was personable. This is a nice hotel at a reasonable price. It was clean. We had a good experience at this hotel.
Lobby was modest but ok. My prepaid reservation couldn't be found - took about 15 minutes to check in! Desk clerk not very personable. Rooms were not bad. Beds were clean and comfortable. Furnishings not bad. Bathroom kind if nice. HOWEVER! Carpet could have been cleaner. Pool fix not look inviting. Refrigerator had a dead bug in it as well...
I looked over the other reviews and thought I would give it a shot. Bad idea. This is like a Motel 6 from the '70s or maybe not even that good. The smells in the motel are horrible and I was coughing after 10 minutes. I tried to check out and they said my credit card had already been charged...
Booked and paid for a non smoking room.when got there offer me a smoking. Just by looking at outside parking lot full of pot holes and dirty. Would not stay here even for free. Avoid this place. This is first time I write a review. Needed to to inform others be aware.
