Some residents of 212th Street in Bayside think the peaceful future of their quiet street could be short-lived after the Bay Terrace Shopping Center repositioned a nearby parking lot entrance last month to directly align it with the residential street.
Traditionally the entrances and exits to the shopping center, at the intersection of Bell Boulevard and 26th Avenue, were placed out of alignment with the surrounding residential streets to discourage drivers from using those roadways as shortcuts to the strip mall, said Bernard Haber, chairman of neighboring Community Board 11 in Bayside.
But Marilyn Bitterman, district manager of CB 7 in Flushing, which oversees the Bay Terrace Shopping Center, said the realignment of the entrance onto 26th Avenue opposite 212th Street was done at the request of the city Department of Transportation to improve safety.
Bitterman said CB 7 would hold a public hearing on the issue July 23 at 7 p.m. at the Union Plaza Nursing Home at 33-23 Union St. to give the community an opportunity to comment on the new curb cut. The Bay Terrace Shopping Center is owned by Cord Meyer Development Co. in Forest Hills.
Residents contend the new 212th Street entrance would make it too easy for drivers to avoid congestion and traffic lights along Bell Boulevard by using their street as a quick cut-through to the center, dramatically increasing area traffic.
Barbara Landers, who has lived on 212th Street for seven years, opposes the newly repositioned entrance and helped gather a petition signed by 150 residents who want it removed.
It almost begs the issue of putting up a traffic light there, she said.
Once a traffic light is in place, Landers said, drivers could shoot down her street and across 26th Avenue directly into the shopping center without bothering to wait for the delays on Bell Boulevard, which is often slow and crowded.
This is not why any of us bought houses in Bayside, she said. We love the block the way it is.
Haber, the longtime chairman of CB 11 and a former Bay Terrace resident, said when the area first was developed in the early 1970s, Community Boards 7 and 11 worked to keep traffic from enveloping the residential streets between Bell Boulevard, Corporal Kennedy Street, 23rd and 26th avenues.
Haber said the shopping center was designed to take cars from Bell Boulevard and Corporal Kennedy Street, two larger thoroughfares, as the main source of its incoming traffic.
The community south of 26th Avenue has always been concerned with the shopping center and its impact, Haber said. It has had an impact, no question about it.
Haber said the new 212th Street entrance would create an additional impact on the surrounding community.
The problem is that they already have the curb cut, Haber said.
While the boundary line between CBs 7 and 11 lies in the center of 26th Avenue, Bitterman said the Bayside community board was aware of the issue.
It makes for safer movement within a community, Bitterman said of the repositioning of the Bay Terrace parking lot entrances and exits. Its for safety that were doing this.
Bitterman said the question of realigning the entrances and exits came up during meetings between CB 7, the city, and Cord Meyer Development on the expansion of the shopping center.

Oct. 3, 2008 -- Wouldn't it be sweet if honey could help heal cuts and burns? Researchers who analyzed existing studies on whether honey can help heal wounds are cautiously optimistic that this ancient treatment may help in some cases.
The study, published in The Cochrane Library, reviewed 19 trials on 2,554 people. The authors were not able to collectively analyze the data of the different trials, but summarized some of the major findings.
The researchers conclude that honey may improve healing times in mild to moderate superficial and partial thickness burns compared with some conventional dressings. Honey does not seem to help with chronic leg ulcer treatments. But the researchers warn that the potential for bias in some of the trials was moderate to high and the results should be read with caution.
Separate studies on animals have shown honey to be helpful in healing wounds. Honey may also be a potent antibiotic.
There are several reasons honey could help with the healing process, according to the report. Honey appears to draw fluid from the underlying circulation, providing both a moist environment and topical nutrition that enhances tissue growth. Honey also may spur debridement -- the removal of dead tissue around a wound to make way for healthy tissue.
Researchers call for more scientific trials to measure the effectiveness of honey in treating wounds.

This has got to be the worst... get us outta here... PLEASE... Anywhere would be better. The Bakersfield owners and community should be ashamed of themselves. 222 fans/ bodies
Doug, I understand what you are saying about new management and the few improvements they are doing to the outside of the stadium but what are they doing to the inside of the stadium. What about the little league size field, the worst infield in minor league baseball, the outdated dugouts, the outdated locker rooms, the poor attendance (looks like they have a pretty good and fun produce on the field to watch and still 200 fans). I know the Reds brass didn't have a lot of say in the matter of relocating there but its now time to get out.
The Reds' organization should fix that infield. Another case of being penny wise and pound foolish.
A watched plot never thickens.

Did they mess with the balls this year?
Apr 5, 2011, 10:00 AM EDT
You and I are men of action. Simplistic projections based on small sample sizes do not become us. So please, while there have been a lot of home runs hit in the season's first five days, let's not play the "on pace" game. Not yet anyhow.
But we can listen to the anecdotes, can't we? Such as the one Dave O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution passed along a few minutes ago in which an unidentified bullpen catcher said that the baseballs are harder this year and that he believes "they've been juiced to aid attendance in bad economy."
Hurm. On the one hand, I'm guessing that there are few places on the planet where more b.s. is tossed around than in a bullpen. Lots of time to just sit there without the bosses nearby. I'll bet there are more conspiracy theories hatched in bullpens than anywhere besides a barber shop and a Glenn Beck/Oliver Stone fishing outing. Put differently, I wouldn't bet my life on the claim of a bullpen catcher.
On the other hand, baseball has a long and rich history of fiddling with the ball, both officially and unofficially, so you can't really discount the notion out of hand.
My biggest question is why? I mean, sure, a lot of people got off on calling last season "the year of the pitcher," but there really wasn't a lot to it. There were some high profile pitching performances and there was a dip from historic highs, but 2010 offensive levels were still elevated, historically speaking. It would make no sense to jack the ball for the purpose of boosting offense when it doesn't need boosting.
Likewise, the economic argument is weak. Baseball has weathered the downturn pretty well, thank you. And besides, if MLB was going to make a panicky, gimmicky move to deal with the downturn, they would have done it before the 2009 or 2010 season when people were scared that we were entering the second Great Depression. Most people have chilled since then.
Fun chatter. I'd be curious to hear more of it, actually, because for every 10 lines of b.s. you hear, an interesting truth comes out. But unless offense just goes crazy in 2011 — or unless, you know, someone actually finds some evidence of a juiced ball — I'm going to file this under "whatever dude, call me later."
UPDATE: Official statement of MLB's Pat Courtney: "There has been no change whatsoever on the composition of the baseball or the process in which they are made."
Unless a scientist tells me differently, I'm goin' with that.
- minnesconsin - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:14 AM
if the ball's juiced, my local creme-filled nine most certainly did not get the memo.
- sometimesphylan - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:15 AM
I'd expect to hear something like that from a pitcher first, anyway. And I'd be more likely to believe it coming from one.
- heynerdlinger - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:16 AM
As long as we're dabbling in fantasy, could juicing the balls maybe help MLB in the upcoming labor negotiations? If the specter of rising-steroid-use looms on the horizon, would MLB have additional leverage over the union either for testing or otherwise?
- Professor Longnose - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:18 AM
It doesn't have to be a conspiracy. Maybe the baseballs are harder this year because the latest batch of pseudo-poly-goo-ylene they used was a point below last year's on the Goo Index but still within quality control norms.
- heynerdlinger - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:23 AM
Hasn't this happened enough in the past that someone, somewhere, tests the coefficient of restitution every year?
- Matthew Flint - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:29 AM
Don't they think that if the factory producing these balls for God knows how long suddenly was told to change the way they did it that at least one employee would come out and say it? Or did Chipper come up with this theory? Idiots
- Craig Calcaterra - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:32 AM
Why would they? If there's a scandal, baseball will throw the factory under the bus for not following MLB standards, they'll change manufacturers and the whistleblower will be out of a job.
- luckywi - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:42 AM
Didn't this come up a few years back? And Bud tried to blame the factory then? Yep, I'm sure it's some guy making a nickle an hour who wan't more home runs. Not bud.
- Matthew Flint - Apr 5, 2011 at 11:05 AM
You don't think some JoeSchmo making nothing would like his five seconds of fame. I sure do. I think that someone would be more than willing to talk. The factory owner wouldn't but I bet his employees would love to get their ugly mug on Sportscenter.
- O.Handwasher - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:34 AM
You have six fingers on your right hand. Someone was looking for you…
- Mr. Jason "El Bravo" Heyward - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:35 AM
They been messing with Barry's berries all season long.
- Dan in Katonah - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:45 AM
Could this be the same bullpen catcher who gets paid to eat guys' boogers and get punched in the nuts?
- churchoftheperpetuallyoutraged - Apr 5, 2011 at 10:49 AM
Did they mess with the balls this year?
Not sure, I've been a bit busy with Barry so I couldn't tell you either way.
- pheagles - Apr 5, 2011 at 11:03 AM
If they did juice the balls, they forgot to tell Albert.
- fearlessleader - Apr 5, 2011 at 1:19 PM
Um, Craig? Some of us are WOMEN of action.

Crimson Circle Celebrates 80 Years of Service
Loyola Marymount University's Crimson Circle celebrated its 80th year of service March 13 with a Mass in Sacred Heart Chapel and a reception.
Crimson Circle was established at Loyola University in 1929 to assist the Jesuit Dean of Students enforcing the Student Conduct Code. As Loyola developed and become Loyola Marymount University, Crimson Circle evolved into a service organization committed to the university's mission for the promotion of justice.
Today, service to LMU and communities of Los Angeles has become an essential part of the Crimson Circle mission. The 35 sophomore, junior and senior men are involved in a variety of service projects such as tutoring students at Westchester High School and working with the homeless at Mother Teresa House.
Kevin Brown '08, a former Crimson, was on the anniversary celebration planning committee. He said that this anniversary was not merely about the Jesuit tradition, but also celebrating the development of the LMU identity and those who continue to foster it.
"Crimson Circle is a tradition as old as the Westchester campus itself," Brown said. "The organization has such a rich history of embodying the Jesuit traditions that we wanted to celebrate our own Jesuit heritage, but also honor the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary and Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange, as they are an integral part of the LMU identity."

Much has been and will be written about Frank Ricci and the New Haven firefighter case. Jan Greenburg Crawford and Ariane de Vogue pen one of the more engrossing pieces. One is struck by the lack of attention which Sotomayor displayed toward the firefighters' claim. The report explains:
What has all of Washington talking is what happened next: Sotomayor and two fellow appellate judges dismissed the white firefighters' claims — and 2,000 pages of court papers and filings — in a one-paragraph ruling.
"We are not unsympathetic to the plaintiffs' expression of frustration," but the firefighters who filed the case don't have a "viable" claim under the law, the opinion said.
Conservatives, like Wendy Long of the Judicial Confirmation Network, have decried the ruling.
"Judge Sotomayor and her colleagues didn't engage in any legal analysis. They didn't grapple with these issues," Long charged.
"It leads one to think that Judge Sotomayor and her two colleagues who were involved in the case simply wanted to bury the claims of the New Haven firefighters."
On the next appeal to the full 13-member court, the judges were more conflicted. Six sharply objected to the short, unsigned opinion, saying it failed to examine any of the law.
"The opinion contains no reference whatsoever to the constitutional claims at the core of this case," wrote Judge Jose Cabranes, a Clinton appointee and long-time mentor to Sotomayor, in a scathing dissent. "This perfunctory disposition rests uneasily with the weighty issues presented by this appeal."
Yes, as her defenders point out, per curium opinions are not uncommon. But after all she "missed" — or sought to shove under the rug — a serious constitutional issue which the Supreme Court selected to consider. The Senate will need to know why she didn't at the very least spot and fully analyze the Constitutional issue.
But even more than Sotomayor's cavalier handing of the claim, one is taken aback by the reaction of one the African American firefighters:
Black firefighters say that the stakes in their case couldn't be higher.
"If we lose this," New Haven firefighter Octavius Dawson said, "the implication is catastrophic. I mean, where does it end? Not just with the fire department. Police department, education, who knows where it could end?"
Yes, where will it end? Soon colorblind evaluations at police departments, next race-based quotas thrown out at public universities and soon the whole darn country filled with citizens all being evaluated on their merits. Well, one can see why the case might have been such a hot potato.
Supreme Court confirmation hearings provide quite an education. We'll learn a lot about Sotomayor, but also the degree to which the Left is wedded to identity politics and race-based preferences. Does the country really like all this divvying up by race, as Chief Justice John Roberts put it? I think we'll be reminded this summer that they certainly do not. And they might wonder why the president has appointed someone who did not, at least in this key case, grapple with the tough issue and give the parties a full opinion on the merits.

We have so many new colorways and products for Spring/Summer 2012 we wanted to highlight a few of them this week. One of our favorites, Scala Ivory, a gorgeous pink, grey and vanilla toned colorway, is now available in stores and on our website.
On a recent trip to France, Cinda fell in love with St. Tropez and tried to capture the essence of that magical place in Scala Ivory. "Everywhere I looked, I saw inspiration for the colors. The soft pinks of the summer flowers, the warm whitewashed buildings, the chic locals with sun kissed skin clad in breezy ivory linen all lead me to a soft pallet of blush tones and ivory. The weathered drift woods and cobble stone streets inspired the perfect mushroom grey accent. As St. Tropez is a village by the sea, a fresh take on a "fishscale" pattern seemed natural. The result is a neutral pattern that is both feminine and sophisticated."
Scala Ivory is available in all our fabulous bags, gear, and accessories ~ here's a look at a few of our favorites!

Is email the root of all evil? Perhaps not, but spear phishing attacks and other computer crimes that revolve around email certainly appear regularly on the news these days. To underscore the importance of our fight against phishing and spam, I've highlighted some prominent cyber-crimes that revolve around the use of email today.
1. Operation Aurora
First disclosed at the beginning of 2010, Operation Aurora was the name given to a series of concerted cyber-attacks conducted against dozens of high profile organizations such as Google, Adobe Systems, Juniper Networks and Rackspace. Google, who was one of about 20 companies that it says were targeted, took the unusual step of admitting that it suffered intellectual property theft as a result.
According to security company McAfee, who obtained samples of the malware, the malicious code exploited a new (also known as a zero-day) security vulnerability in the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser to load malware onto the targeted computer. Victims were identified selected and sent specially crafted emails that look like they were coming from a trusted source. The exploitation takes place when an attached file or URL link is clicked, leading to the installation of malware with direct access to the corporate network.
2. RSA Network Breach
RSA was targeted by a cyber-attack which led to "certain information being extracted from RSA's system," says the security company just last month. In an open letter to its customers, Executive Chairman Art Coviello admitted that the information is related to the company's vaunted SecurID two-factor authentication products, though the company declined to provide further information.
Well, the company broke part of its silence last week, and outlined the details of the attack in a detailed blog post. In summary, a new zero-day vulnerability in Flash was exploited by embedding a Flash file within an Excel XLS file. To entice employees to trigger the exploit, the file was named "2011 Recruitment plan.xls" and sent to selected employees over a two-day period. I observed that the spear phishing attempt targeted users that were not "particularly high profile or high value targets," which I presume was a deliberate attempt to avoid users who are sufficiently tech-savvy to notice the threat, or have access to the real recruitment plan to recognize the dud for what it was.
3. HBGary Email Breach
Angered over claims in a press report that security firm HBGary Federal can identify individual members of the loosely knit global hacking group Anonymous, five hackers decided to break into the company in revenge. As reported by Forbes, the members defaced the company's Web site, deleted data and posted more than 50,000 of its (now former) CEO's emails online for all to see – all within the span of 24 hours.
Beyond the embarrassment and the fact that hidden among the thousands of email messages were correspondences damaging to the reputation of the company, what is perhaps more shocking was how the security company's defenses was breached. In a nutshell, a systems administrator from HBGary was allegedly tricked – via email, into changing the password of a server and lifting firewall restrictions to allow a remote connection. Probably only more startling is the revelation that the person who played the pivotal role outlined above – and no doubt trashed a few careers along the way, was a 16-year-old girl.
4. Epsilon Data Breach
Epsilon Interactive is an Email Service Provider for hundreds of corporations, including well-known brands such as Best Buy, Disney and Home Shopping Network. As you will no doubt have read about by now, the company suffered a data breach on March 30. Not much is known about how hackers gained access into Epsilon's system, other than that a "subset" of the customer data belong to its clients were exposed by an unauthorized entry into the company's email system. According to the terse press release issued late last week, approximately 2 percent of total clients were affected.
Probably more worrying is the five financial institutions identified to be affected, which are JP Morgan Chase, Capitol One, CITI, U.S. Bank, Ameriprise Financial. For now, customers with accounts or business dealings with affected organizations should be triply careful over possible spear phishing attempts. They should check all email correspondences carefully and avoid clicking on suspicious URL links or opening attachments. Remember, no legitimate businesses will ask for personal or bank-related information over the email.
Do you know of any other recent high-profile cyber crimes? Feel free to highlight them in the comments section.

In A Blink
JavaScript assisted by invisible flash helper proxy to make cross-domain Ajax calls.
How can you make cross-domain Ajax calls exactly like you make regular same-domain Ajax calls?
- The browser already has a native XMLHttpRequest (XHR) object for making Ajax calls, and the API for that is more than capable enough to handle making cross-domain calls.
- However, the object itself is not capable of doing so. The reason is that the native XHR object is restricted by the same-domain origin policy that all browsers now enforce.
- New versions of the major browsers (IE, FF) are introducing entirely different objects for cross-domain Ajax calls, but naturally these are different from the native XHR object already present and written against, and sadly they are different from each other, which means we still don't have a good cross-browser way to do cross-domain Ajax.
Javascript+Flash Ajax calls, via flXHR (and others)
This is an API object clone replacement approach, with the following benefits:
- Existing page code for making same-domain Ajax calls does not need to be changed, because the API for native XHR is emulated, and so the flash-enabled solution becomes a viable drop-in replacement for native XHR.
- Flash's model for authorizing cross-domain communication involves a server opt-in policy which is strictly checked and respected by the Flash plugin (which means it cannot be hacked or changed by run-time web page application code).
The spirit of this solution is to use a flash swf instance as a proxy for cross-domain Ajax calls, which is an effective client-side alternative to the Cross-Domain Proxy pattern.
The key to this approach is to instantiate an invisible (technically 1x1 pixel) flash swf instance, and then wrap it in some javascript which exposes the same API functions as the native XHR object. The Javascript wrapper passes calls and request data to the flash "proxy".
At this time, flXHR is the only completely API compatible solution in this pattern, though many other projects out there implement to lesser degrees the same spirit of this pattern.
Some other options include:

Javascript Web_Remoting
Client-side Proxies
There are various other client-side proxy implementation patterns, such as:
- Iframe proxy Iframe Proxies (not yet written)
- Window-name proxy Window.name 'proxy' (not yet written)
Cross-Domain Proxy
The Cross-Domain Proxy pattern relies primarily on a server-side proxy, which is not subject to same-domain origin restrictions and thus can make cross-domain Ajax calls as needed. However, the Flash-enabled XHR pattern specifically moves the "proxy" into the client-side (the browser), so an intermediate server proxy is unnecessary. Client-side proxies are particularly useful in creating dynamic mashups.
On-Demand Javascript
On-Demand Javascript Dynamic script tags -- not really a proxy per se, but yet another way around the same-domain origin policy.
Visual Metaphor
If you are in a foreign land which you don't speak the language, and you need to conduct some business, you can bring along a friend who speaks the native language as well as your own. You speak and conduct business by first asking your friend to translate for you and pass along your message to the intended recipient, and then waiting for him to translate the response back to you.

Saranac Lake Village officials used their Aug. 13 meeting of the Saranac Lake Local Development Corporation (LDC) as a platform to change the direction of economic development here.
While some communities rely on town, county or chamber of commerce resources to spearhead economic development and tourism efforts, the village of Saranac Lake is taking the lead instead. It's already had success with grant writing through the Community Development Office for years, and the fairly new LDC is poised to create partnerships to bring more new business to town.
"The LDC should be the centerpiece of economic and community development in Saranac Lake," said Trustee Paul Van Cott.
The LDC directors invited a few guests to the Harrietstown Town Hall auditorium Aug. 13 to talk about their organizations, thereby gathering information on the current economic development and tourism assets at the village's disposal. Speakers included Community Development Director Jeremy Evans, Saranac Lake Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors President Craig Stevens, Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST)/Lake Placid CVB Executive Director Jim McKenna and ROOST Board of Directors 2nd Vice Chairman Mike Beglin.
One of the goals of the discussion, as outlined by Mayor Clyde Rabideau, is to maximize the collective economic development impact by using their resources as effectively as possible.
"I want to take advantage of the expertise that you have with the existing resources with the different organizations, and we want to minimize the overhead that we each contribute," Rabideau told the speakers. "Again, we want to eliminate the duplication of efforts."
The LDC's mission is to relieve and reduce unemployment; promote and provide additional and maximum employment; improve and maintain job opportunities; attract new industry; retain existing industries; and lessen the burdens of government. Formed in 2010, it was designed to develop loan programs, initiatives and outreach efforts to support the village's economic development strategy.

Video:How to Make Crab-Stuffed Mushroomswith Jesse Rosado
Making crab-stuffed mushrooms is easier than you think. However, they're exactly as delicious as you think. Here are instructions for cooking crab-stuffed mushrooms.See Transcript
Transcript:How to Make Crab-Stuffed MushroomsHi, this is Jesse Rosado for About.com, and today, we're going to be talking about how to make crab-stuffed mushrooms.
Crab-Stuffed Mushroom IngredientsSo we have some ingredients here for our crab-stuffed mushrooms. We have:
- Stuffing mushrooms
- Bread
- Old Bay seasoning
- Crab meat
- Salt and pepper
- Cayenne pepper
- Celery
- Onions
- Carrots
- Bell pepper
- Thyme and parsley
- Butter
Prepare Mushrooms for StuffingSo we have our stuffing mushrooms here. I'm just going to go ahead and dip them in some water, make sure it's nice and clean. And to avoid mushy mushrooms, we're going to pat them dry with a paper towel. Now that we've washed and dried our mushrooms and have the stems out, I'm going to take out this inner rind which sits under the mushroom cap and is really dark in color - and we don't want that color to bleed out into our stuffing mix.
Prepare Mirapoix for StuffingNow, we're going to start prepping our mirapoix for the stuffing. Mirapoix is basically 50% onion, 25% carrot and 25% celery. This is a classic base in many French recipes. So now we're going to add a little thyme and a little parsley. And now I'm going to chop up these mushroom stems so we have a nice mushroom flavor in the background of our stuffing. And we'll add a little chopped up pepper for some flavor and some color. We have some sliced sandwich bread here which we're going to use for the body of our stuffing. We'll just coat the mushroom cap on the outside with a nice coating of butter and we're going to put them into the baking dish and get them ready for our crab-stuffed mushrooms. Now that we have our ingredients ready, we're going to go start build our stuffing. That starts by sautéing the vegetables. And we're just going to sauté these for eight to nine minutes. So we've got to a good spot here with the pan. Our onions are looking nice and translucent, our vegetables are soft, and now is a good time to deglaze the pan. I'm going to use a little of the crab juice to do that. So I just dropped in the bread crumbs into the mirapoix that's been deglazed with the crab meat juices there, and now I'm going to cover so that those crab meat juices will steam inside there, and infuse those bread crumbs with that crab flavor. Our stuffing is done here. I'm just going to go ahead and pour it into this dish.
Prepare Crab Meat and Bake Crab-Stuffed MushroomsThe next step is to put in the crab meat. I've got some nice cooled-down stuffing here. This is drained, wild-caught, ready-to-eat crab meat. I'm just going to scrape it into the bowl here. So we'll sprinkle it with a little bit of this Old Bay seasoning - probably about a teaspoon, maybe a little more. So now that our stuffing is seasoned and well-folded in, we'll go ahead and stuff the mushrooms. Push it down - we want to stuff it nice and high. Now our mushrooms are just about ready to go into the oven. Just as a final touch, I'm going to sprinkle a little fresh grated parmesan on each one. So here we go! A nice tray of stuffed mushrooms. They go into the oven at 350, and we'll be baking them for about 25 minutes.

Aaron Hernandez, who is involved in a homicide investigation in suburban Boston, also is about to be sued by a man alleging the New England Patriots tight end shot him in the face in February.
The suit, demanding $100,000 in damages, was first reported Wednesday by TMZ.com. It was filed June 13 in U.S. District Court for the southern district of Florida; it was dismissed Monday, but a revised version of it was filed Wednesday afternoon, according to the lawyer for plaintiff Alexander S. Bradley.
UPDATE: Bradley was convicted of selling narcotics in 2006, the Hartford Courant reported, citing Connecticut records.

It is not known whether the suit is related to the incident for which Massachusetts state police are investigating Hernandez.
A man was found slain Monday in an industrial park about a mile from Hernandez's home in North Attleboro, Mass., southwest of Boston. Police visited Hernandez's house for a second consecutive day Wednesday.
Bradley's suit accuses Hernandez of aiming a gun at him and shooting him in the arm and face on Feb. 13, after an altercation at a Miami strip club, Tootsie's Cabaret. The suit also claims that Hernandez did not have a license for the gun, and said that his actions "were deliberate and with the intent to cause harm to (Bradley)."
Sporting News has obtained a report filed with the Palm Beach County (Fla.) Sheriff's Office on that date; according to the report, police responded early in the morning to a 911 caller in Riviera Beach who said he had heard a shot fired, and found Bradley, 30, lying on his back in an alley.
Bradley, who gave his residence as Hartford, Conn. (Hernandez is a native of Bristol, Conn.), had "what appeared to be a gunshot wound to the head and also a possible gunshot wound to his right hand," the report said.
Bradley was taken to a nearby hospital, but repeatedly told officers that he did not know who had shot him, the report said. A detective who investigated the incident the next day was told by officers and a nurse that Bradley had been "very rude" and "extremely uncooperative," and that Bradley asked the detective "that the investigation not go any further." The sheriff's office closed the investigation soon after with no charges filed.
David Jaroslawicz, Bradley's New York-based lawyer, said Wednesday that the lawsuit was amended to correct details of the damage suffered and reconstructive surgery his client underwent as a result. "He lost an eye. He needs more surgery. He can get around a little bit, but he was seriously injured," he said of Bradley.
The amended suit describes Bradley as needing multiple reconstructive surgeries on his face, including the insertion of plates and screws, and requiring "extensive medical care and treatment for the rest of his life."
Asked if a police investigation might be re-opened, Jaroslawicz declined to comment.
Andrew Waks, the attorney of record for Hernandez in the lawsuit, did not immediately return a call for comment.
Earlier Wednesday, WBZ-TV in Boston reported that law enforcement officials had not ruled out Hernandez as a suspect in the death of 27-year-old Odin Lloyd in North Attleboro, and that Hernandez was not cooperating with police. Later, Boston station WFXT, citing a law enforcement source, reported that it appears Hernandez is directly connected to the killing.

ADELAIDE, January 18, 2012 (AFP) — Australian Will Clarke was given a hero's reception by thousands of raucous fans after bringing a 140km breakaway all the way to the finish of the Tour Down Under's second stage Wednesday.
Swiss rider Martin Kohler of the BMC team took possession of the race leader's ocher jersey from German Andre Greipel as the chasing peloton were outdone by the determined UniSA rider.
"This is unbelievable really," said Clarke. "This is the biggest win of my career—it's my first win on the WorldTour."
Yet at the start of the day, Clarke had somewhat more modest ambitions. He and Kohler had been part of a four-man break that attacked just after the start of the 148km ride over undulating terrain from Lobethal to Stirling.
And after the Swiss had pocketed most of the day's points, and bonus seconds at the intermediate sprints, which would prove crucial later in the race, he returned to the bunch with over two laps of a 26 km finishing circuit left.
Clarke started the penultimate lap with a massive lead of 11 minutes on the chasing peloton, which by now had put some big engines from Team Sky, GreenEdge, Rabobank, and Movistar up front in a bid to close the gap.
Despite seeing his lead brought down to 7min 30sec at the start of his final lap, Clarke held on to solo over the line in 3hr 58min 35sec.
Olympic team pursuit champion Geraint Thomas admitted the favorites had underestimated Clarke, and had spent too much time marking each other.
"We just underestimated how strong he was," Thomas, of Team Sky, said. "There was a bit of bluffing, seeing which teams were going to ride ... we started going and a few teams came up (to help), but unfortunately we didn't get him back on the line.
"But fair play to him—great ride."
Australian Michael Matthews of Rabobank won the group sprint for second place a minute later, with Simon Gerrans of GreenEdge third, Alejandro Valverde of Movistar fourth, and Sky's Edvald Boasson Hagen fifth.
"This is unbelievable really," said Clarke, who failed to find a spot with a WorldTour team last year when former team Leopard folded.
"I was up the road with a BMC rider (Kohler) to get some sprint points and I kept going when he went back to the peloton.
"He probably thought it wasn't worth keeping going. The peloton gave me more time and I thought, 'You guys are going to have to chase me hard catch me.' But I was dying in the last 10 km."

Just google Bronies and Cloppers otherwise. You couldn't make this stuff up. People out there!!!
he needs more time off to deal with his loss of time
I really don't think he'll announce his retirement, because I'd assume Dana would probably be furious, and ruin the "surprise" by posting something about it on Twitter.
Maybe he's really going to try and get into the Olympics for wresting, but that's not even until '16. Or maybe he's going to open his own gym(s). Maybe he's purchasing a majority stake in some professional Hockey team, or whatever rich Canadians do. Or a major sponsorship deal.
I already thought he was the majority owner of the Edmonton Rush Lacross team (the other sport us Canadians are known for). I could be wrong though.
As for the presser Friday - im just happy its in Montreal where he can speak his first language and not be subject to a language barrier, even though Geroges English isnt really that bad...Hope its not the end of his career and I honestly dont think he will announce that but we'll see.
Ok, I have a few theories to go on here:
1. He's retiring, plain and simple. He's tired of fighting and the wear that it's taking on his body so he's deciding to hang it up.
2. He's Gay. He's holding this press conference to come out of the closet.
or 3. Him and his coaches have discussed it at length and have decided that if he trains properly he can be successful for another two or three years and his next fight is going to be a rematch against Johny Hendricks.
I'm kind of hoping for #1.
Dana states that he is not making an announcement and he's just talking to the media for 10 minutes before an opening of a mall (2:32 into the video):
<param name="movie" value="http://c.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f9?isVid=1&isUI=1" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /><param name="flashVars" value="videoId=2921027940001&linkBaseURL=http%3A%2 F%2Fwww.sportsnet.ca%2Fmma%2Fdana-white-previews-wild-weekend-ahead%2F&playerID=2513591680001&playerKey=AQ~~,AAA AAGWRwLc~,cRCmKE8Utf5uJwBuioSF4psFywRcHOq4&domain= embed&dynamicStreaming=true" /><param name="base" value="http://admin.brightcove.com" /><param name="seamlesstabbing" value="false" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="swLiveConnect" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><embed src="http://c.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f9?isVid=1&isUI=1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" flashVars="videoId=2921027940001&linkBaseURL=http% 3A%2F%2Fwww.sportsnet.ca%2Fmma%2Fdana-white-previews-wild-weekend-ahead%2F&playerID=2513591680001&playerKey=AQ~~,AAA AAGWRwLc~,cRCmKE8Utf5uJwBuioSF4psFywRcHOq4&domain= embed&dynamicStreaming=true" base="http://admin.brightcove.com" name="flashObj" width="480" height="270" seamlesstabbing="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" swLiveConnect="true" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></embed></object>
As White told "UFC Central" hosts "Showdown" Joe Ferraro (video above), don't expect much.
"That's not true; he's not making any announcement on Friday," White said. "This thing was planned for months. He's going up to the opening of a mall, and he's signing autographs for fans, and he's going to do 10 minutes with the media. People are talking about he called a press conference and other things.
"I'm not saying he might not have something to say in these 10 minutes. He might. But it's no crazy announcement like everybody was saying earlier."
White, though, suggested that though St-Pierre may take a break from the sport, he considers an official retirement very unlikely.
"I don't think he's going to retire," White said. "I do know that he wants some time off, which is an issue because he just had over a year off for his ACL surgery and recovery. So we'll see. I'm supposed to talk to Georges St-Pierre on Thursday when he gets back from vacation."

Summer reading kickoff packs Central Library
Anyone who believes children of today's digital age have abandoned actual books would have been in for a surprise Sunday had the dropped by Evansville's Central Library.
Hundreds of children, teenagers and adults were lined up out the doors for the kickoff the Evansville-Vanderburgh Public Library's annual Summer Reading Program.
Daniel Bannister, an 11-year-old from Vogel Elementary who's been in the program since 2007, stood in line with his mother and grandmother a half-hour before opening time, anxious to get his hands on another summer cache of stories.
"It's encouraging for kids of all ages to read more," he said. "Kids wouldn't read as much without the summer program, they'd probably be playing video games or wasting time some other way."
Participants each received a summer reading pamphlet, which includes a log to keep track of books read. Rules varied depending on age groups. Children teenagers could either read log minutes read or entire books, adults must read entire books to count. Pamphlets are dividing into four color- based levels of reading, and after completing each level, children and teenagers receive small book tokens from each library they visit. There is no cost for the program.
The program officially starts today. At the end of the program, random drawings will be held. Children can win tickets to Mesker Park Zoo & Botanic Garden and Holiday World & Splashin' Safari as well as Webkinz, teenagers win cash and gift cards, and adults win cash prizes of $100, $200 and a grand prize of $500 or adults can opt for a Kindle Fire tablet.
Bannister said he averages around 50 books each summer; his favorites include Flat Stanley, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and the Harry Potter series, which he highly recommends.
His mother, Jane Bannister, said her son hardly needs any extra incentive to complete the program and added that he finishes every book he starts. Daniel Bannister visits the library at least three times a week, she said.
"It's just awesome, it gives him a chance to see all the libraries and what they have to offer," she said.
Erika Qualls, Central Library's popular materials supervisor and adult summer reading program coordinator, participated in the program in the 1980s and after completing a masters program in library studies, is pleased to see such a huge turnout each year for the program. In 2011, roughly 7,500 children, 800 teenagers and 3,300 adults took part.
This year doesn't look any different. Central Library's lobby was congested for more than an hour with readers waiting to get their pamphlet.
Library staff attempts to divide lines to keep traffic flowing smoothly, but there's always a long wait. However, most people keep their cool and no fights have ever broken out, Qualls said.
"It's supposed to be a happy day," she said. "Kids are still reading books, parents are reading books with their kids, they all have a chance to win prizes, it's a good time."

There are many, many days where staying home with the kids feels like Sisyphus pushing that rock up the mountain. Making meals, cleaning up after meals, reinforcing consequences, directing activities, laundry, diapers, laundry, laundry, laundry: its endless. Then there are moments like the one I had with R last night.
The boy would. not. go. to. bed. This happens all the time. It means endless trips up the stairs to sit with him for "just one minute", to bring a snack, to get him a drink of water, to listen to him tell us "just one thing". So, I resigned myself to not watching the season finale of Breaking Bad, but to coddling my little boy unconscious. It never ceases to make me curse the sleep gods that I can lay Baby A in her crib fully awake and she takes that as her cue to go totally comatose for 13 hours, and my three year old routinely takes more than an hour to put to bed and wakes up (sometimes multiple times) during the night. Having a baby who sleeps, but not being able to sleep through the night yourself, is like getting a gift you can't unwrap. So, realizing that tonight was turning into one of those nights, my mood soured and I morphed into Sisyphus.
I went upstairs to sit on the edge of his bed to listen to him tell me "just one more thing". He started to tell me about how all of his teachers like to punch him in the face and tell him to go home to his mama. How the kids at school won't play with him. How he's sad, sad, so sad when he's at school. I might find this alarming if I hadn't recently watched my son turn into the biggest drama queen in the entire universe. He's started hanging his head and moping over to the stairs where he plops down, throws a glance over his shoulder and sighs, "there's no one to play with me" and then hangs his head again. This is usually his response to me telling him I can't take him to visit his cousins because, well, they're in school, or it's 6 am or some other obviously groundless reason. I'm fairly confident that his teachers don't punch him in the face, and he's always pissed off when I arrive at school to pick him up, because I'm RUINING HIS LIFE! So, I attributed this litany of woe to R wanting me to sit up there and love him up until, oh, midnight or so.
After hanging my head in my hands for a minute, I thought I might be able to turn him from his sob story by asking him what he likes about school. And do you know what he said? "I like it best when you come and get me from school, because you're my mama and I miss you all the days." Gah! Heart melting, tears forming, highlight moment. And before I could even start to gush about how much I love him too, and how I'm so glad he's my boy, he launched into the most charming description of what he loves about school. He loves "tivities" and "go to the park" and "Leslie, cuz she's my real friend and I wave at her and she wave at me and she wears a headband and it takes a few whiles to make a new friend…." And I'm so glad that I had the good sense to just sit on the edge of his bed to listen and ask him questions even though it was way past his bedtime, because I've never heard him say so much about his thoughts at one time. It was the most charmed ten minutes of my life with him, and I loved it and soaked it up and tried to will myself to remember it forever.

Roger Taylor...
Queen drummer Roger Meddows Taylor was born on Tuesday, July 26, 1949 at the West Norfolk and King's Lynn Hospital in King's Lynn, Norfolk, to Winifred and Michael Taylor. Michael was an inspector for the Potato Marketing Board. 'Meddows' was a family name that had been passed down successive Taylor generations, and it was subsequently passed on to Roger as a middle name.
Roger had attended his first school, Gaywood Primary in King's Lynn, for three years when the family, now including sister Clare, born in 1953, decided to make the major move down to Truro in Cornwall where Roger was enrolled at Bosvigo School
In 1957, aged eight, Roger was watching his cousin play simple tunes on his guitar and decided then and there he wanted a guitar too. At first he made do with a ukulele, on which he taught himself basic chords. It was enough to persuade him, even at that age, that he should form a band - there might be money to be made here!
The band were called the Bubblingover Boys and played skiffle music. Roger played, or tried to play, the ukulele, someone else had a tea-chest bass, and a couple of other lads had guitars
The Bubblingover Boys played just once more, at the Bosvigo School at a school dance. It was a short-lived venture, one reason being that none of them were very good at it, and another that in May 1960 Roger started at the Truro Cathedral School and left behind his fellow band members. He was awarded a choral scholarship to the school, which involved joining the cathedral choir. He was an unwilling member of that elite fellowship, as it involved singing three times every Sunday and at special services such as
weddings and midnight mass at Christmas. Although the experience was invaluable, Roger never considered himself the choirboy type.
In September 1960, Roger won a place at Truro School. This public school was academically the best in the area, and Roger was the only pupil from the cathedral school to get a free place there. It was a boarding school but as Roger lived nearby he went as a day boy.
The joys of playing guitar were already beginning to fade for Roger, and he found himself more and more drawn to percussion. He started off by bashing upturned saucepans with his mother's knitting needles, using the lids as cymbals. He actually found a snare drum one day while out playing with friends, and was given a hi-hat cymbal. For Christmas 1961, his father presented him with a bass drum and a tom-tom - he had picked up both for £12 and had mended and polished them. Although it was a mismatched kit, Roger was exceedingly proud of it. He went out after Christmas and bought himself a brand new Zildjian crash cymbal for eight shillings - his first proper cymbal - and eventually another tom-tom as well.
During 1963 he and some friends formed a band. They called themselves the Cousin Jacks. Roger was initially their rhythm guitarist, but he didn't enjoy this, and subsequently took over on drums, where he felt far more comfortable. The band split after a year.
In 1965 Roger joined a local band called Johnny Quale and the Reaction. On 15 March, after rehearsing together for a couple of weeks, they considered themselves competent to enter 'The Rock and Rhythm Championship', an annual event run by the Round Table in Truro City Hall, at which bands from all over Cornwall and Devon would compete. Johnny Quale and the Reaction came
fourth and that served to start them off on the Cornish music circuit, which was quite significant in those days, attracting many of the bigger, London-based groups.
September 1965 saw Johnny, the lead singer, leaving the band. His departure came just before they were booked to play a gig, so Roger, the only one left who could sing, took over on lead vocals. They dropped the first part of the name and became Reaction. On 7 March 1966, Reaction entered the Rock and Rhythm Championship again, this time with Roger on lead vocals. The hard work and endless gigging over the past year paid off, and they won.
Even though he was busy with Reaction, Roger's school work didn't suffer, and he left Truro School in the summer of 1967 with seven O levels- in English language, English literature, biology, physics, chemistry, French and math. He also had three A levels in biology, chemistry and physics. By this time he had heeded the advice of his teachers, decided on a career in dentistry and been accepted at the London Hospital Medical School.
Reaction eventually split in the summer of 1968 when Roger went back to London. Roger went back to university intent on getting into another band. His appetite for fame and fortune was keen and he read the music press regularly, looking for an opportunity. In early autumn Les Brown noticed a postcard pinned to the Imperial College noticeboard asking for a 'Ginger Baker/Mitch Mitchell type drummer' for a new band. He passed on the information to Roger, who, intrigued, contacted the name on the card the following day. It was Brian May, of Queen.
Roger was the first member of Queen to start a solo career. He began it way back in 1981 with the release of Fun In Space - which is a fab album! He then released Strange Frontier in 1984. He formed a new band called The Cross in 1988.The members of The Cross were Spike Edney (Keyboards) Josh MacCrae (Drums) Clayton Moss (Guitar) Peter Noone (Bass) and our Roger (lead vocals). They released their debut album, Shove It, in 1988, Roger wrote all the songs. The Cross made two more albums, Mad Bad And Dangerous To Know, and Blue Rock before they split up. Roger recorded Happiness? In 1994, one of the songs off the album was banned, Nazis 1994. He had to change the lyrics to "Stop these stinking Nazis" instead of "Kick these f**king Nazis". Roger's latest album, Electric Fire was released in 1998 - and to promote the album, he appeared on TFI Friday, a program on Channel 4 in the UK. He sang Radio Ga Ga, and No More Fun while there, and he went down a storm.

Primarily intended for those seeking careers in professional accounting and financial services, the MSAIA program seeks to provide the knowledge and skill sets needed by effective professionals over their careers. Students attracted to Lehigh's MSAIA program exhibit a diverse set of backgrounds. All value the program's reputation, coursework, networking, and outstanding employment opportunities available to our graduates.
The MSAIA program offers an outstanding opportunity to prepare for a career in today's demanding accounting field. Accounting professionals are engaged in a variety of services, including assurance (auditing), business valuation, information resources and consulting. The program focuses on using information and technology to improve business processes and forge business solutions.
Not all MSAIA students majored in accounting as undergraduates: the program has included students with backgrounds in finance, marketing, business economics and information systems, as well as English and other liberal arts concentrations. The program therefore attracts a wide range of students to the field of professional accounting.
As a small, high-quality, full-time program offering most core courses during the day and the opportunity to interact with LEHIGH MBA students during evening courses, admission to the MSAIA program has been highly selective.
MSAIA Learning Objectives
Lehigh accounting faculty are recognized experts and researchers in several fields who bring their knowledge into the classroom. Faculty members publish in top academic and professional journals, are frequently quoted in the financial press, and write textbooks. One faculty member chairs a corporate audit committee, another served as an SEC Academic Fellow and developed an award-winning MSAIA course, and a third was the editor of a journal that received an international award for readability of research in accounting and finance during his term.

Ryan Gosling Says He Has Always Wanted to Rob Banks
It's no secret that Ryan Gosling has already stolen the hearts of America. But does he want to steal more than that?
Ryan Gosling is currently at the Toronto International Film Festival (note to self: must book flight to Toronto immediately) where his new film, The Place Beyond the Pines, debuted last night to an "enthusiastic reception from a sold-out crowd," according to Deadline. Then again, who isn't enthusiastic about a chance to see Ryan Gosling on the big screen?
The Gos spoke to Showbiz 411 about his character, who robs banks in upstate New York, and he revealed a deep, dark secret about himself. "I have always wanted to ride motorcycles and rob banks," Ryan admitted. He then added, "And it's easier than you think. The banks are told to just give you the money." Seriously — could this guy be any more of a badass? We think not.
And does the fact that Ryan became an internet meme with the whole "Hey, Girl" phenomenon seem a bit weird to him? "How could it not?" he asked Showbiz 411. "I know about it, but you can't think about it." Actually, Ryan, we don't quite agree with that, since we think about you a lot.
The film — which co-stars fellow hottie Bradly Cooper and Ryan's real-life love interest Eva Mendes — is apparently a very unusual crime thriller and is directed by the same guy who directed Ryan in Blue Valentine. (Wait, so this guy got to be around Ryan during not one but two films? We're officially jealous.)
Now that Focus Features has secured distribution rights for Place Beyond the Pines, we'll get double the Gos in 2013: Ryan's movie Gangster Squad is set to open in January, and Place Beyond the Pines will also hit theaters next year.

I have my father's 1959 Winchester Model 94 (serial number in the 241XXXX range). This is a great Hill Country deer gun and shoots wonderfully, even after 50 years. I've been trying to find a field stripping guide online somewhere and I'm coming up blank. I give the barrel a good cleaning and oil the action every year, but I'd like to do a more in-depth cleaning because of it's age. Anybody know of one somewhere?
I'm also tempted to lighten the trigger a little, if that's possible, but I don't know if that can even be done. Anybody have some wisdom on this, too?
Half the time I want to get a new rifle and put this one in a place of honor, but it's just too much fun to shoot to relegate it to the gunrack! Besides, its hard to get it to stay on the rack with the side mounted scope.
