Is that a knife in my back, or are you just happy to leave me? And by me, I mean us...and by us I mean Habs fans.
As much as the loss of Komisarek from the Canadiens lineup is hard to swallow, the way in which it was done makes it all the more painful. Now that the details are coming out, it is looking like Komisarek went to Toronto for a measley 2.5 million more than the Habs were offering. Komisarek got a 5 year 22.5 million dollar deal from Toronto and it looks like Montreal was offering a 5 year 20 million dollar deal. 2.5 million dollars apart? Really? Is that all you left over?
From what Gainey said in his press conference, last night, it seems that he made an offer to Komisarek and never received a counter off. I imagine that Komisarek wanted to see what else was out there and what other offers he would get, but for a guy who seemingly 'loved' Montreal - the team, fans and organization in general - he sure made for the exit over a pretty small amount of money.
Komisarek is the guy that was being groomed to become the future captain of the Canadiens. By all accounts, he was universally liked by all of his teammates, management and ownership. They (Guy Carbonneau) even had him standing behind the bench, when he was injured, looking like an assistant coach. By everything that Komisarek was saying - all of it looking like lips service now - he loved this city and team and wanted to stay. But just like Sheldon Souray before him - he also said that he wanted to stay before bolting to Edmonton - Komisarek headed for the exit the first chance he had.
Now, I never expected that he would re-sign with the Habs. I always thought that he would head for one of the New York based teams. But to learn that he signed with our arch-rival Leafs for a negligibly small dollar difference, is very painful for me and most of the legions of Habs fans.
Komisarek's decision is a slap in the face. A knife in the back. A good friend kissing you on one cheek and slapping you on the other. Now, to add insult to injury, we are going to have to match up against Komi 6 times a year. 6 times per year, we are going to have to watch him bashing around our newly acquired, highly skilled, diminutive, forwards.
Its just gross. It makes me feel sick. Again, this is nothing against Toronto, it is more about the principle. However, if you want to talk about flawed principles, then I suppose we have to go back to Gainey's flawed (in my opinion) principle of not negotiating with free agents during the season. I get Gainey's logic. He wants his players to play hungry. The problem is that I think there were too many free agents, and Bob knew all along that he wanted Komisarek to remain a Hab. He should have, again in my opinion, been working to sign Komisarek in January. Komisarek should never have been able to go to market.
But alas...
It seems the the Habs, up and down, are now an example of gambles that Gainey has and is taking. It seems like a bit of a 'hail mary'. If this thing goes off the rails, if there is no chemistry between Gomez, Gionta and Cammalleri, this Hal Gill proves to be as slow a skater as we all think, then the next season could get ugly REAL fast.
Somehow, I imagine that the Habs won't be terrible next year, but rather middle to bottom of the pack, kind of the way they were this year. But who knows. This is a Forrest Gump team......you never know what you're gonna get!
There is some good that come from Komisarek's choice, and that is that it will add that much more to the already furious rivalry between Montreal and Toronto. Imagine the cough, cough, warm welcome that Komisarek will get the first time he steps foot onto the Bell Center ice, weaing the enemy's jersey! The shock waves will echo all the way back to his new home in Toronto.
At the end of the day Komisarek was a free agent and had earned the right to go to any team he wanted to...and he did. I just can't get over the fact that going to Toronto for 2.5 million extra means that he never had any intention of signing with Montreal. All the platitudes he spewed about loving the city and fans, and wanting to be here were seemingly false. It feels like Komi betrayed the Habs faithful. It feels like we were lied to. It feels like our GM let us down. The whole thing just leaves a really bad taste in my mouth.
Good luck Komi. I hope you enjoy missing the playoffs for a few years.

Et tu, Komisarek?
Is that a knife in my back, or are you just happy to leave me? And by me, I mean us...and by us I mean Habs fans.

I say good riddance. Komisarek is a defensive liability and an undisciplined bully (who fight for shit...can anyone say lucic?
As a diehard Habs fan, I shudder to think that he was being groomed to be captain - but then I wake up from that nightmare to see he'll be stinking up Toronto for the next four years at least (unless they put him on waivers).
Him and Phaneuf make a great couple.
Hi there anonymous and thanks for your comment!
Thanks, as well, for digging SO deep in the HabsAddict.com archives to find this piece!
In hindsight, you are 100% right about Komisarek! The Leafs grossly overpaid for his service and, if Montreal had signed him for $20 Mil, they would also have been overpaying.
Playing alongside Andrei Markov, made Komisarek look a lot better than he actually is.
The reality is that he is likely a No.4 defenseman, at best, and should be making around $2.5 Mil per.
The other problem for Komisarek and the Leafs, is that since that fight with Lucic, Komisarek has been injury prone. But that's what tends to happen with players that play the game hard like he does...the body often begins to break down in your late twenties.
In hindsight, Komisarek leaving and signing for way too much money with the Leafs ended up being one of the best things that could happen for the Habs.
Thanks for reading!

In the highly technical world of contemporary print media, where digital images abound, fine art printmakers continue to find inspiration in techniques that are centuries old, often in combination with 21st century methods. Many of these print forms will be featured in the eighth annual "Making an Impression" exhibition at the Newburyport Art Association from July 11th through July 24th.
The show will feature eight artists. Although most have been with the group since its inception, several have joined recently.
Muriel Angelil of Amesbury explains that her monotypes and mixed media collages are often inspired by childhood memories of growing up in Egypt. Muriel is also a sculptor and creates site-specific sculptural installations in the environment.
Susan Dosick of Newburyport creates linoleum block prints as well as an original process using puzzle-like pieces of foam as printing blocks. Artists' books provide another format for her prints.
Kate Higley, who lives in Wolfeboro, NH, is the newest member of the group. Kate began printmaking while living and working in Saudi Arabia.. After returning to the United States, she studied and taught biology and studio art. This merger of interests has resulted in prints and paintings that are both abstract and organic.
Susan Jaworski-Stranc has worked for many years with the challenging process of reduction linoleum prints. As forms are carved away, successive layers of the image are printed. She has exhibited her prints, paintings, and handcrafted books and maintains a printmaking studio at Western Avenue Studios in Lowell.
Barbara Nachmias-Kedesdy lives on the Parker River in Newbury. A love of gardening and fascination with the history of botanical art serve as inspiration for her prints, which are impressionistic renderings of plant forms and the coastal landscape.
Mary Arthur Pollak lives in Ipswich and works at Indigo Artist Studio in Newburyport. She works primarily with monotypes and mixed media, integrating print forms such as collagraph and etching. She explains that her prints can be abstract or representational, spontaneous or deliberate, yet the process is always challenging.
Mary Tuttle of Salem, an elementary school art teacher, focuses on monotype and etching. Her work is often informed by explorations with her students and her own children, expressing narratives of the everyday.
Mary Carolyn Webber is a painter and printmaker who is "inspired by the natural world viewed through the lens of lyrical abstraction". Mary enjoys incorporating collagraph into her monoprints and most recently has been exploring the traditional print formof mezzotint.
The Opening Reception for "Making an Impression" will be held Saturday, July 16th, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM.
The Newburyport Art Association is located at 65 Water Street in Newburyport, MA, 01950.
Gallery hours are 11-5, except Sunday 1-5.

Re: Billy Cobham
I just saw Billy Cobham live about two weeks ago. I had heard that he might've lost a step or two with age based on a previous tour, but not on this tour. He hasn't lost a step. Billy nailed everything. Never got off once on his crazy fills which I heard happened a tiny bit back in 2003/2004 on his Spectrum reunion tour.
He's in the process of recording a 3 or 4 volume set (don't remember which) of new stuff with his New York band. He played a lot of stuff off of the first volume when I saw him and it sounds amazing. I think he's in the process of recording the second volume now.
Then he played Quadrant 4 off of Spectrum. One of the craziest grooves I've heard. He plays a blisteringly fast double bass shuffle with a ridiculous ride pattern overlaid. I mean, I know it sounds great on the album, but hearing live was really something remarkable.
Anyone: if he's coming to town, get out and see Billy Cobham. It's an incredible experience. Being a left hand/right foot lead drummer like he is, I do naturally take a lot from his setup and technique. but I think that everyone can learn so much from just one night of hearing this guy live. I know I was inspired.

Hopes high for Sherborne hydrotherapy pool to help pain relief
Posted: November 17, 2012|
Plans to build a hydrotherapy pool to help those suffering with muscle pains and afflictions could be a step closer to fruition.
Since 2007, Sherborne Over-50s group has campaigned to have the specialist pool installed at Oxley Sports Centre.
Now Oliver Letwin, MP for West Dorset, has taken part in talks with Dorset County Council and the parties involved in the hope that the project can be launched.
Member Phyllis Kristiansen heard about the benefits of a pool to those suffering with arthritis, sports injuries and other muscular ailments from former Sherborne councillor Keith Batten.
Mrs Kristiansen, 85, of Sherborne, said: "I carried out a survey in the town and between 80 and 100 people supported the idea.
"Doctors from the area thought it should be introduced."
The pools are set at 33 degrees and the warm water helps gently loosen and exercise muscles and help with pain relief.
Charities such as Arthritis Care recommend the treatment.
Mrs Kristiansen: "I believe people want to help themselves without going to the doctors and taking pills.
"This is a healthier alternative to strong medication and it has proven popular.
"I've lived in Sherborne for more than 20 years but when I moved from Canada people were already using them there. It might not cure the symptoms but it might help with relaxation and flexibility in the limbs and joints."
Pools are already installed in Yeovil, Stuminster Newton and Axminster but Mrs Kristiansen, who suffers from scleroderma, a disease of the connected tissues, said one is needed in Sherborne.
She said: "Here many are unable to travel far and cannot drive so it would be most beneficial to have one nearby which they can regularly attend.
"It may come at a cost but I think it's a very important treatment."
Mervyn Smith, chairman of Sherborne Over 50s group, said: "We are very grateful for Mr Letwin's help in this project and we feel things are moving along positively.
"We are now gathering more facts and figures for another meeting in the near future."
Oliver Letwin said: "I think we may now be beginning to move in the right direction."

UPDATED November 27, 2012: The jackpot for tomorrow's Powerball is now at an estimated $500 million. If you haven't bought your ticket yet, run out and do it now.
Of course, we recommend that you do so with an understanding that your chances of winning are nearly zilch. But then again, someone has to win the money, right?
Below is a list of the people who've won the biggest payouts in American lotto history to date. These folks nabbed their 15 minutes of fame and–if they played it smart–the chance to never have to worry about money again. Here's what they said they planned to do with the money:
1.Merle and Patrica Butler of Red Bud, Illinois and three teachers calling themselves The Three Amigos in Milford Mill, Maryland, as well as an anonymous winner in Ottawa, Kansas, shared the $656 Mega Millions jackpot March 30. That's $218.6 million each.
Merle and Patricia Butler were the only winners to come forward publicly, and they were coy about how they planned to spend the money, saying only that they'd take the lump sum of $157 million and spend on the advice of their financial planners and attorneys. What savvy folks. Patricia did tell one media outlet that the couple would "do some real good" with at least part of their dough. Doubtless everyone in their town of 3,700 would notice if they built a backyard sauna or turned their home into a McMansion.
2. Eddie Nabors of Dalton, Georgia, and Elaine and Harold Messner of Woodbine, New Jersey, shared Mega Millions on March 6, 2007: $390 million
Nabors, a 52-year-old truck driver, told the Today Show that he planned to buy a house for his daughter so that she could move out of her mobile home, pay off mortgages for his mom, sister, and other family members, and buy a fishing boat for his son. For himself, he reported fairly low-key plans: "I'm going fishing."
3. Jim and Carolyn McCullar, of Ephrata, Washington, won Mega Millions on Jan. 4, 2011: $380 million
Jim McCullar told reporters that he planned to put his lottery winnings in the bank, write some checks to his six kids, and donate to charity. "I'm not going to fly all over the world and buy my own jet," McCullar said in a press conference. "What this means to me is the legacy is going to go generation after generation after generation."
3. Holly Lahti, of Rathdrum, Idaho, won Mega Millions on Jan. 4, 2011: $380 million
Lahti, a single mother, reportedly quit her job as a customer service representative at a bank–and then practically went into hiding. But her estranged husband, Josh Lahti, wasn't shy about sharing his opinion on his wife's winnings. "That's awesome! I won't have to pay child support!" he told the Associated Press when a reporter informed him of his wife's good fortune.
Turns out Holly had good reason to hide: reporters did some digging and found out that the couple was never legally divorced, or even separated, giving Josh a potential, if tenuous, legal claim on Holly's lucky ticket.
4. Eight workers from a ConAgra meatpacking plant in Nebraska, won Powerball on Feb. 18, 2006, and shared the winnings: $365 million
Seven men and one woman, whose jobs it was to process hams and corned beef, split the winnings. Three immediately quit their jobs, the Today Show reported. Others, after learning they were now millionaires, reported straight to work for the graveyard shift. Two of the winners were immigrants from Vietnam, one from the Congo. Alain Maboussou, the Congolese immigrant, said he planned to use the money to get a business degree. When the lone female winner was asked if she was married, she responded "No. It's all mine."

Riga's Jenn Suhr has been on an incredible run. She won a gold medal and set the world record in pole vault. And now, Track and Field News, considered the top publication devoted to the sport, has named Jenn Suhr the World Indoor Female Athlete of the Year. Suhr is featured on May cover.
Suhr won gold in London during the Summer Olympic Games, and says she never experienced a lull. The high point of her indoor season came in March at the U.S. Indoor Championships in Albuquerque when she broke the world mark of 16 feet, 5 ¼ inches set last year by Yelena Isinbayeva.
Suhr says now she is training for her outdoor season which begins next week.
Jenn Suhr said, "Last year was a lot of pressure. I want to take advantage of enjoying and putting up good jumps that I'm capable of. Last year the pressure of the Olympics to win, I wanted to jump as high as I could. We did the gold medal tour after the Olympics but when that was done, I was still competing. I'm ready for outdoor. I'm not burned out. I'm motivated and want to jump high and want to take advantage of that."
There are eight outdoor events in the season which begins next week in Kansas, followed by the Drake Relays in Iowa at the end of the month.

Chris and Ursula met at the age of 18, when they were both obsessed with music and played in a combined schools orchestra. "He had a massive curly shoulder-length afro at the time, I wore a pink school uniform; he played oboe, I played clarinet", she said. "We bonded over car rides home and his mum's choc-chip cookies. We were shy young things though and didn't eventually get together until a year or so later, after I returned from living in Denmark for a year."
"I think the thing that made our wedding 'unique' or different was that so many of the things we chose were things that we just liked – not things that we thought we 'should' have or do", she continued. "I wore a red dress, not white, because I didn't feel like 'me' in any of the classic white ones that I tried on. We had a cute red kombi van rather than a classic old car because we figured if we had to hire transport, it may as well be fun! We ordered a tiramisu cake rather than a classic wedding cake because… well, we really wanted to eat tiramisu at our wedding! We also secretly got dance lessons for a couple of months and learnt an awesome swing dance for our first dance!"

I'm not a big bible reader but my Catholic education has left me with a few memories of bits of scripture that have stood out and still have deep meaning for me still today.
From 1 Corinthians 13:13, "For there are these three things that endure: Faith, Hope and Love, but the greatest of these is Love".
This is what we are all looking for; this is the mainstay of our true feelings of peace and contentment, of happiness and joy in our lives. This is the deepest of the deep emotions that has no beginning and no end. It comes from the source of all, from God, the Universe, a Higher Power and it trickles down into every one of us all the time.
If we are not feeling this love within ourselves, or with others in our lives, it is not their fault. It is not what they are doing or not doing, what you are receiving or not receiving. It is about our ability to heal the pain and move through it so that we can create a space and the vision to see and feel this love.
There is no greater love than that which we feel from the root of our being; the love that comes from the Source of who we are, a spark, a light, a fraction of the pure essence of God, experiencing life as it is lived from all different aspects.
When we know this, understand this and feel this in every fiber of our being – that is truly being "in love". It is the most authentic love, the truest and purest love that is.
And we can all "find" this love. It is not farther away than your heart. Open your heart, feel it expand and take in all the glorious experiences of life, allow it to accept others just as they are, to love those even when they cannot love themselves and to live it every day.
Take a few minutes each day to check in. Is your heart open and do you feel the tenderness of that deep love within? Is it constricted and does it feel hard? Take a deep breath and envision a beautiful vibrant green light, a ball of energy growing in the middle of your chest. Feel the warmth of it, the softness of it, the healing, the kindness as your heart expands.
Take this feeling into the world and feel how different your day will be when you live from your heart. Then you will understand that the greatest love of all is always within your reach.
With love and kindness

St. Peter's Church, Darby End
The original church building at Darby End was a day school with just Sunday evening services, the desks being turned about for seats. It ceased to be a day school in 1888 when the Halesowen Road Schools (popularly known as the Iron Schools) were built.
The day school at Darby End then became a proper Mission Church, with an altar, choir stalls (which are now in the new church), a small organ and chairs, and it was named St. Peter's Church.
There was a celebration of Holy Communion one Sunday in the month for a time, and the church was served by the Curates from St. Andrew's Netherton, the parish church.
In 1910, it was decided that a new church building should be erected. Much work was done in the way of collecting money for this, and many people helped, some by giving just one penny a week. The new church was eventually finished and it was dedicated for service in the afternoon of 11 January 1913. That same evening there was a Confirmation Service at which some 40 people were confirmed. A Choral Eucharist was by now part of the regular pattern of worship at St. Peter's.
After the completion of the new church, the old church building was used as a Church Hall and, in 1947, a house was obtained in the Darby End area of the parish for the use of the priest at St. Peter's.
Darby End became an Ecclesiastical Parish in its own right in 1976.
St. Peter's stands proudly in the community as
a sign and symbol of the presence of God's love in our
lives. The church is there all the time; it is there when
it is wanted, it is there when our busy lives lead us sometimes to forget
St. Peter's stands to serve us all.

Count on Stephen Colbert, self-professed Apple lover, to put out a sweet, funny tribute to Steve Jobs.
Yeah, Jobs was a visionary and all that, "But the thing I will miss is that no one else could make me beg quite like him," Colbert says in this almost 4-minute video, which then goes into a montage of Colbert clips pleading for the latest Apple gadget.
The iPhone is on his list of must-haves — for free of course — as is the iPad 2 ("Oh my god, I need it!"). When it comes to blatant product placement, few have the audacity of Colbert to go all out. There is no subtlety. But that's why he's so loved.
When he brings out the lime-green iMac, where he keeps his obsolete iPhones, you have to laugh. Don't you?
And who can forget his Emmy Awards presentation, when he pulls out his iPad to read the nominations?
Watch to the end of the video to see the email Jobs sent to Colbert after his Emmy stint. And then go hug your Apple products, and think of Steve.

Visitor Study Ladder Review: This curriculum has been developed by teachers in Western Australia. My children are aged 8, 10, and 12 years and they absolutely love this program.
What I love about this curriculum is that it is set up as a whole system of learning. As a parent you can set tasks for each of your children and all the levels are graded accordingly. There is a rewards system built into the system including a smiley chart and rewards room where you child can buy things to decorate the room and purchase other rooms using their rewards points earned through the system.
By the time I am out of bed in the morning, my son has been on the computer and completed his set tasks. He is only 8 and for him to be this motivated tells me that this system is working for our family.
The system covers 10 subject areas, including Music, Languages and culture, science, mathematics, Literacy, Safety and Community, Art and Mastering Mathematics.
The system is both online and there are printables so that the child is interacting virtually and in a real world setting.
It also offers holiday activities and games to keep the children engaged in learning.
Highly rated by me for it's ease of use, it's integration of the whole monitoring the development of your child process and it's simple and logical organization of the website.
It also includes NAPLAN activities, so that you can prepare your children for the NAPLAN testing.

PICTURE: Chinese navy UAV spotted in-flight
By Stephen Trimble on 24 June, 2011 in Uncategorised
Great job by the Japan Security Watch to spot this photo last week. The photo was released on 23 June by Japan's Ministry of Defense. Japan's MoD claims it spotted the unmanned aerial vehicle flying around a Chinese naval ship on exercises near Okinawa. It's not clearly apparent from the photo that the UAV belongs to the vessel underneath, but the MoD press release makes that link. It's also not apparent which UAV is involved. To my eyes, it doesn't seem to resemble known Chinese UAVs in this size class, such as perhaps the ASN-209 and ASN-802. It's possible this photo shows an all-new UAV now in Chinese naval service.

Its such as you learn my thoughts! You seem to understand a lot approximately this, such as you wrote the e book in it or something.
I feel that you simply could do with some p.c. to power the message home a bit, however instead of that, this is fantastic blog.
An excellent read. I'll definitely be back.

UNC to offer free online courses in the fall
It's official.
Starting in the fall, UNC will begin to offer massive open online courses or MOOCs, as they are called, exposing its faculty to learners around the world.
The courses, four to start, will be offered free of charge to anyone who signs up to take them.
UNC officials have said the university needs to gain experience in offering such courses in anticipation of a time when academic credit and tuition receipts become the norm for them.
The first four offerings include epidemiology, music, law and metadata.
Carol Tresolini, the university's provost for academic initiatives, said that, by Thursday afternoon, the metadata course already had 328 people enrolled, even though enrollment had been open less than a day.
"That's just in the first twelve hours, and the courses aren't even going to be offered until the fall," Tresolini said.
She added that the law course had 180 people enrolled during that 12-hour period, epidemiology had 156 and music had 97.
No course credit will be given to those who successfully complete the courses.
UNC officials see the courses as a way to serve the people of North Carolina, a stated mission.
"They'll give us a little more reach, allowing us to extend the university's resources to the public by providing learning opportunities," Tresolini said.
She said the faculty will also benefit.
"In the course of creating MOOCs, there's an opportunity for the faculty to develop materials that they can use in their regular classes," Tresolini said.
In December, the university considered a number of platforms from which to offer the courses, but decided on Coursera.
"This is the next logical step to expanding our online presence along with some of the very best universities in the world," said UNC Chancellor Holden Thorp. "We look forward to learning from our experiences with Coursera as we continue evaluating the right approaches to online education for our campus and our future students in North Carolina and beyond."
UNC was one of 29 new schools to join Coursera this week, increasing the company's partnerships with universities around the world to 62.
Along with its new partners, Coursera also added 90 new courses, bringing its total online course offering to 313.
Duke University and UNC are the only campuses in North Carolina that have partnered with Coursera.
Since it launched last year, Coursera has gained 2.8 million registered users, with nearly 1.45 million course enrollments each month.
The company uses a blend of video lecture segments, interactive quizzes, online message forums and other learning tools and strategies to teach and later evaluate students on their mastery of subject material.
Here are the five members of the UNC faculty who will kick-off the university's venture into MOOCs:
- Lorraine Alexander and Karin Yeatts, professors in the Gillings School of Global Public Health will teach "Epidemiology: The Basic Science of Public Health.
- Evan Feldman, a professor in the Department of Music will teach "Fundamentals of Rehearsing Music Ensembles."
- Don Hornstein, a professor in UNC's School of Law, will teach "Introduction to Environmental Law and Policy."
- Jeffrey Pomerantz, a professor in the School of Information and Library Science, will teach "Metadata: Organizing and Discovering Information."

I am not religious, nor do I moralize, but I do have a strong ethical code. I don't lie, I don't cheat, and I only steal from the rich to give to the poor :-)
I read voraciously, and have a plethora of interests, particularly political and social history. Growing up as a lonely only child, I'm very comfortable and confident on my own, but I light up in the right company. I prefer small, intimate gatherings where one can really talk and connect - the best, of course, happen when I am talking all night on a beach with just one special person. And I'm very mature - probably because of growing up by myself.
The outdoors are very important to me. I sea kayak, rock climb, trail run, backpack, hike and snowshoe, and am on my boat, on a rock wall or running on the trail every day of the week. I'm not a thrill-seeker, but I do tend to push myself - which might explain why I've had to be rescued by the Coast Guard twice while paddling in exceptionally rough conditions :-)
Although I enjoy human powered exploration of the outdoors, I'm not a big fan of travel - and that, I realize, sets me apart from most of the people here :-)


text: Long before the Wisconsin Humane Society opened the Victoria Wellens Center on West Dekora Street, the Saukville area had become a haven for businesses that cater to pets and their owners.The grand opening of the 22,000-square-foot Ozaukee County shelter attracted throngs of people Saturday, and that spill-over was felt by a handful of businesses.Few communities the size of the village have so many ventures serving one sector of the business world.Saukville Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Stacey Frey noted that five of the organization's members are businesses that cater to the needs of pet owners.The most recent addition to that roster is the Humane Society itself.Frey said the Chamber hasn't specifically attempted to recruit pet businesses, but termed the symmetry "interesting.""I don't know that it is at all related, but I think it is great to have so many pet businesses. They are all a bit different, and having them so close should help each other," Frey said."I haven't had a chance to tour the new building, but I know it will be a great asset for Saukville. People treat their pets like children … with spa treatments, grooming, clothing, etc. These businesses are probably benefiting from how we all treat our pets these days."The impact of the opening of the $6 million, state-of-the-art animal shelter was immediate for many business."Since the shelter opened on Saturday, we have already had six or seven clients come in to have their newly adopted pets checked over," said Judy Steinert, practice manager for the Saukville Veterinary Clinic.Although Paul Shepherd has had the veterinary practice in the community for about 30 years, Steinert said, the Humane Society shelter has created a new buzz."I know our clients are all excited about the shelter opening and the opportunities it presents. The vet staff has been invited to a private tour of the facilities next month," she said."There will be a learning curve involved as we become familiar with what services the Humane Society offers, but everyone is excited to be working with them."Location is one of the greatest assets the new shelter has going for it, Steinert said. The building replaces a cramped facility in what was once the concession stand for the 57 Outdoor movie theater in the Town of Grafton."When clients used to ask us how to get to the Humane Society shelter, we would say, turn down this road and then that road and look for the run-down building," Steinert said. "Now, we can say just go down Highway 33 a few blocks."The landmark status of the new shelter has not been lost on Sue Richison, owner of Dawgs in Motion. Her pet training and boarding business is located a few blocks away on West Dekora Woods Boulevard.The business has been in the Saukville Business Park for three years."It wasn't until after we opened that we learned the Humane Society was looking into building on the property at the corner of Highway 33," Richison said."Up until this point, when people asked us where we are located, we would say, 'Look for the water tower.' Now, we can say we are just down the road from the new shelter."The proximity of the shelter is likely to be appreciated by her clients, too."There are times when our clients lose a family pet, and it will be easy for us to direct them to the shelter now to look into adoption, because it is so close." Richison said.She said the shelter has already meant exposure for her business."The shelter is beautiful and it is drawing people from all over," said Richison."I know we had people stop at our business from Sheboygan and Cedar Grove on Saturday who were in town to see the new shelter."Richison said she stopped at the shelter briefly to deliver some requested supplies on Saturday, but had to hurry back to her business, which was also crowded.Jennifer Eurich, owner of Pet Supply Port in the Conservancy Court shopping center, has rolled out the welcome mat for the shelter."We have been running an ad offering a free self-serve dog wash and tag for every pet adopted at the shelter. We had two people come in with puppies on Saturday," Eurich said.Similar cross-promotions are expected in the future, she said.When word spread that the Humane Society was building in Saukville, Eurich admitted she had reservations."I was concerned that they were going to have a store in the building and would be taking business away from us. Then I learned that was not the plan, and I am delighted to have the shelter in town," she said."I hope the Humane Society will increase our business and put more animals out there for us to serve and support. It is definitely a good thing for us."

Bond - Good Or Bad Role Model?
Feb 26, 2004
By: Aaron Smith
To many, James Bond is a daring, sophisticated ladies' man with a license to kill. Some people (mostly children) see him to be a future portrayal of them some day, while others look and see a sex-driven everyday man with a Walther PPK. In this essay, I will prove he is both a good and a bad role model.
Since Dr. No, children and adults alike fled to the theaters to see this wonderful man put the hurt on the bad guys, just to raise their spirits. And, that is one of the reasons Bond, with his funny little quips and innuendoes, lightens the atmosphere after a rough battle with Blofeld or Jaws with a little post-fight joke. Without those things, Bond wouldn't be as fun. Another good thing about Bond is that he battles the bad guys. In the early part of the series, the villains or villainesses weren't people that you just had to hate. As the series progressed, the baddies got worse, from killing innocent people with a golden gun, to destroying Turkey with a submarine. Getting rid of these guys is an aid to Earth. My final reason is that he faces much physical and emotional pain, a lot like other people. Everything was just fine for him until On Her Majesty's Secret Service, when Blofeld's forces killed his wife, Tracy, just a few hours after their wedding. In The World Is Not Enough, Elektra puts him in an Egyptian torture chair, and in Die Another Day, he's put in prison and tortured horribly. You've got to feel sorry for him there.
Along with his good characteristics, Bond also exhibits some characteristics you would not want to have. First of all, he sees women to be more objects than people. M even calls him a "sexist, misogynist, dinosaur" (Goldeneye). And even, he sometimes hurts women to get what he needs. I'm a male, yet I still find this quite rude. Another flaw of Bond's is his license to kill. Sure, he doesn't like to, but he inspires kids that violence and weapons can solve a problem. That, of course, is not true. My final reason is that he drinks too many martinis. He orders at least one in every movie. No wonder he always gets caught! Like M says in Never Say Never Again, "Too many dry martinis!" Hey, bottled water wouldn't hurt once in a while.
Although 007 has flaws, he's altogether a hero who is loved by millions. Even Christians like him. I'm a Christian, and I still like it. So there, Colin, Harry, Tanner, Ryan, other Colin, Brennan, Travis, Jonathan, Jon, Bryan, B.J, and David!

Add romance to every inch of your body and complete your Valentine's Day look with a great nail color. While your hot date may only last one night, a pretty nail color can help revitalize the look of your hands and keep you feeling pretty throughout the rest of the week. Here are some of our top picks for Valentine's Day nail polish, from Deborah Lippman and butter LONDON:
1. Pink. Pink is the universal color of love and can help induce feelings of amour, acceptance, caring, tenderness, friendship and, most importantly for Valentine's Day, romance. For a sheer, flirty color, try "Dream a Little Dream of Me" by Deborah Lippman. This nail color is a mix of sweet pink frosting and the glimmering of pearls. For something a little darker, go for "Dahling" nail lacquer by butter LONDON – it's a dusty rose color that's feminine and perfect for any skin tone.Read More »
You don't have to dress like a leprechaun's twin sister to show your Irish spirit. A splash of green on your fingers from your friends at Deborah Lippman or butter LONDON is all you need to make a fashion-forward statement and avoid the dreaded St. Patrick's Day pinching. This year, our two favorite nail gurus offer a wide selection of rich, on-trend green lacquers for one of the year's biggest party nights:
Don't Tell Mama. Announced as Kelly Rippa's favorite stocking stuffer, "Don't Tell Mama" from Deborah Lippman is a dark evergreen polish with a hint of sophisticated glimmer. The color is like a mood ring, straddling the line between the dark green shade that means you're happy and the blue color that means you're in love.
Across the Universe. With this Deborah Lippman polish, you'll look like you're holding Irish stars in your hands. "Across the Universe" is packed with chunky, bright, metallic blue and green glitter, along with specks of sheer navy sparkles. Use this color on an accent nail or to create a French tip with "Don't Tell Mama" as the base color.Read More »
Shop Deborah Lippmann here!
I recently saw this amazing polish in a fashion magazine and am thrilled that it's now available at b-glowing.com. Deborah Lippmann's Cleopatra in New York is a black based nail lacquer with antique gold flakes making it one of the most sophisticated glitter polishes I've come across lately. I'm especially loving this for the holidays and NYE parties as it's definitely an attention getter. For those who love the ever classic red - Deborah Lippmann's Through The Fire is a radiant red in a merlot hue that has a subtle shimmer in it. For the sweet and sassy girl! You cannot go wrong with either of these stunning new additions.

As per usual, Zooey Deschanel had some of the best nails on the red carpet at this year's Golden Globes, which gave us some serious nail inspiration. We loved the femininity and simplicity of her nails, plus the added glamour of the gold, so our resident nail artist got to work on a Zooey D-style mani.
Step 1: Apply Your Base
Always start with clean, buffed nails, and apply a base coat for mani longevity, and to protect your nails. We used a sheer beige/pink base to keep the nail look natural and clean. For this we used Tenoverten's Houston. Two coats will do just fine, and don't worry about slight transparency.
Step 2: Dots
Once the base color dried for about 5 minutes, we added our gold dots for the centers of the daisies. The tip of the polish brush is quite perfect for making the small, slightly raised dots. Just a few dabs on the nail with the brush will give the desired effect. Make sure to spread them out so you have room to paint the petals of the daisies.
For this we used Lushington, new from butter LONDON's Boho Rock Collection. Zooey's manicure has bigger and fewer daises, but we opted for a smaller flower. The choice is yours! These will take longer to completely dry, but after a few minutes you can move on to your next step.
Step 3: Petals
To create the petals we used a small pointed nail brush. For those of you without these tools around, a steady hand and the tip of a bobby pin will work, too. We chose a light blue, instead of white, just to add a pop of color; we used Blue Orchid from Deborah Lippmann's spring 2014 line.
The easiest way to dip your brush into the polish is to pour a small amount onto a dish. Starting from the gold dot, lightly drag the brush with your petal polish outward. Try to keep them the same length, and don't crowd too many petals on one dot. Your brush will start to accumulate polish, so be sure to wipe the brush periodically.
Step 4: Gloss
Give your mani sufficient time to dry before applying your top coat—a good 15 minutes, just to be safe. Once dry, apply a top coat of your choice to seal the look and create a high shine. Now you, too, have sweet and sophisticated red carpet nails!
We want to see your red carpet looks! Follow us on Instagram and Facebook and tag #awardshowglow on your hair, nail, and makeup pics.Read More »

Brendan Rodgers believes Jamie Carragher can still write another significant chapter in his Liverpool story before calling time on a glittering playing career at the end of this season.
The boss was reacting to news that the 35-year-old will be leaving the club this summer, ending a first-team career at Anfield that has spanned 16 years.
Carragher broke back into the first team last month when Norwich were dispatched 5-0 at Anfield and has retained his place at the expense of Martin Skrtel.
And Rodgers envisages Carragher having a big part to play for the remainder of this campaign.
"Jamie has been absolutely outstanding for me since I joined the club," he said. "He has been a model professional on and off the pitch and has shown an unswerving commitment to our work.
"We still have a lot to play for as we look to finish as high up the Barclays Premier League as possible and continue our progression in the Europa League, a competition we'd like to win.
"He will have a significant role to play for us between now and May and I know his commitment and dedication on the pitch will remain as it has done his entire career at Liverpool.
"Jamie's focus is always on doing what is best for the team and he has said he doesn't want any distractions while there are still important matches to be played and won.
"But when the time is right we, as a team and a club, will give the man the tribute and recognition he deserves; I know the supporters will want to say thank you to someone who has served them with such distinction for so long."

The fourth Stonewall Awards ceremony will take place on Thursday 5 November at the V&A in London. The ceremony, which has become an essential fixture in the lesbian and gay calendar, will be hosted by TV presenter Gok Wan. Once again supported by Barclays, the ceremony celebrates those who have made a positive impact on the lives of lesbian and gay people in Britain. Last year's winners included Sue Perkins, Waheed Alli and Sandi Toksvig.
Three of the Awards will be voted for by thousands of Stonewall supporters from across Britain: 'Hero of the Year', 'Bigot of the Year' and the 'Stonewall & Barclays Community Group.' The chosen Community Group of the Year – won last year by the Lesbian and Gay Immigration Group - will receive a cheque for £5,000 to support its work.
Nominees for Hero of the Year include Carol Ann Duffy, Britain's first female and openly gay poet laureate, Reverend Rennie, the Church of Scotland's first openly gay minister and Nick Partridge, Chief Executive of THT and veteran campaigner. Bigot of the Year nominations include BBC presenter DJ Spoony, Fred and Shirley Phelps and Doctor Sheila Matthews who sat on an adoption panel and refused to consider same-sex couples as potential adopters.
The other seven awards – including Writer and Entertainer of the Year - will be chosen by a panel of judges including TV personality Sue Perkins, presenter Evan Davis, former basketball player John Amaechi, Angela Eagle MP and Assistant Editor of the Daily Telegraph Andrew Pierce.
Ben Summerskill, Stonewall Chief Executive, said: 'In Stonewall's 20th anniversary year, we've had the opportunity to celebrate the heroes of the gay equality movement from the last two decades. Our Awards ceremony continues this recognition, but also shines a light on those who are making an important contribution to equality in Britain today – inspiring lesbian and gay people to lead fulfilling lives at home, at school and at work.'
Antony Jenkins, CEO, Barclaycard said: 'Barclays is delighted to continue our relationship with Stonewall. Celebrating diversity is at the heart of what we do so we're proud to support the Stonewall Awards for a fourth successive year.'
Last year Bishop Gene Robinson was named Hero of the Year for his dignity and bravery as the church debate on homosexuality intensified, after being barred from the Lambeth conference. Iris Robinson MP was voted Bigot of the Year after describing homosexuality as 'disgusting', 'loathsome' and 'viler…than sexually abusing children.'

Rifleman Matthew Wilson's citation, stating why he was chosen to receive the Military Cross, was read out to a select audience at a special event held in London. He talks about the events of that day.
According to the citation Matthew "Showed exceptional gallantry and leadership when the Brigade Reconnaissance Force was ambushed by a strong and tenacious insurgent force".
The Military Cross is to be awarded to Rifleman Matthew Wilson, 21, who continued to fight after being just 'a hairs breadth from death' in Helmand ambush.
Rifleman Wilson had a lucky escape after being shot in the head as he ran to protect a wounded comrade in a deadly game of cat and mouse with an insurgent sharpshooter during a reconnaissance mission in northern Helmand.
Matthew, of 2 RIFLES attached to the Queen's Dragoon Guards during OP HERRICK 15, was withdrawing from an operation in Nahr-e Saraj in October last year when an insurgent sharpshooter shot at the patrol – hitting one of the soldiers in the leg.
As the casualty lay out in the open being treated, Matthew ran forward with another soldier to provide cover to stop the insurgent shooting again. But as Matthew identified the enemy sharpshooters position to return fire a bullet glanced off the top of his helmet knocking him unconscious.
"There was a massive crack sound and then my head was whipped sideways," recalls the Aberystwyth soldier, who was knocked unconscious for 30 seconds before being shaken awake.
"One of the other soldiers saw it and said he just saw dust come off the top of my helmet and me fall to the floor, but I don't remember it happening. I just remember waking up with a massive headache but I didn't realise what had happened right away. It's weird. I didn't just get up and think that I have just been shot in the head. But when I put my finger on my helmet it was really hot where the bullet had hit.
"As a soldier I know the preparations the insurgent would have taken prior to taking that shot, and it would have been just a minor mistake – a slip of the shoulder – that meant he hit the top of my helmet and not my face."
The threat however still remained as the insurgents started to target the incoming casualty evacuation helicopter as Matthew started to come to.
With no option, Matthew began to crawl forward to identify the enemy position but the enemy sharpshooter was just too well hidden. His only choice was to run across an open field under a hail of bullets.
"When I got up the insurgent who shot me knew I was still alive so he kept on firing at me. Staying there wasn't a good place to be, but also we couldn't risk the helicopter going down or the shooter hitting the casualty again or one of the helicopter crew.
"We needed to do something about it and nobody else could get eyes on the shooter's position. So I started pegging it," recalls the former Penglais School student. "You could hear him going for me... I was zigzagging, doing everything to avoid the bullets that at first were landing by my feet, and then whizzing past my head. He was getting closer and closer."
Matthew, just made it to the protective cover of a ditch when an Apache attack helicopter arrived to give them cover as they extracted further to a nearby compound.
His head still pounding from the impact of the bullet, Matthew then climbed on to the compound wall to help identify the enemy firing point.
From his new position, Matthew was able to return fire and with the combined effort of the rest of the patrol was able to neutralise the enemy threat and launch a counter attack.
Amazingly, Matthew then continued with the rest of his four hour patrol back to his base where he was fully checked for injury – and then put the incident to the back of his mind till he was called to his commanding officers office four days ago.
"I hadn't forgotten about it, but I'd just moved on, so I was a bit confused when I was told to go and see the commanding officer as that's not normally a good thing! I never thought I would I have something like this medal – it's a pretty big deal and hasn't really sunk in. But I can't wait to go to the Palace and meet the Queen to receive the medal, although I'm really nervous about it," admits Matthew who has suffered no side effects from the shot to the head.
"You have got to respect your enemy," he concludes. "I have no special hate. I would have done exactly the same, except I wouldn't have missed. It was a bloody good shot though."
His citation says: "Wilson's gallantry, coolness under fire and exemplary determination, having been literally a hair's breadth from death, was nothing short of extraordinary.
"Where many would have crumbled under pressure, shock or fear, Wilson immediately rose to the challenge and took the fight forward to the enemy. This young man is a fine example of conspicuous courage that few display in the face of mortal danger."
The Military Cross is awarded to all ranks of the Royal Navy, royal Marines, Army and RAF in recognition of exemplarily gallantry during active operations against the enemy on land.
The announcement wad made today with the release of the latest operational honours and awards list which includes some 106 personnel. The awards are actions roughly during the period 1 September 2011 to March 31 2012 during Operation HERRICK 15.
Matthew is one of seven MC recipients on the list.

DOOM Legions Revisited Episode 1 v1.01Dec 27, 2010 Full Version 0 comments
Fixes abnormally slow movement, no installer (which some older versions of Windows did not like, also the gun bobbing is a bit better now
Ancient mythology states that there was a guardian of Mars known as Ares. He was the "god of war" and every 5000 years of war, a portal from Hell opens and sends all of the evil and dead souls out into the world. Ares had stopped the last war of hell from consuming the universe, but in doing so he sacrificed himself to save everyone. Now 5000 years later, the portal has opened again and the evil and dead souls are roaming around. No one knows where the portal has opened up, but there have been ominous anomalies happening on a Mars base. The Earth's best forces have been sent to investigate the situation and return the world back to its safe self. Once the Special Forces arrived, they scattered across the base, and in a matter of minutes only one was left. This lone soldier was deep inside the base and had to get out somehow, the best way was through.

I have begun to clean up this game, to be able to finish it, and release it to its fullest. I have just started, and I'm nowhere near beginning to scratch the surface. I have been doing the same that I did for DoomLOH and adding in a few neat features and all of the bug fixes that I found, that were "shrugged" off. I also have been keeping to a strong TO DO list and making sure I write down anything that is needed to be done, what I would like to do, and ideas, etc.
I hope that I can continue to work on this throughout my final semester of college. It isn't as packed as most semesters, so I have had a lot of free time at night. I hope to tackle the entire game, and make sure that credit is given where credit is due. ronwolf1705 did a spectacular at mapping a good majority of the maps. I do not want to see his work be lost and never see the light of day.
I had a ton of neat features that were explicit to episodes 2 and 3, so I hope to show those in this full release. I do not have even an estimated release. I won't know until I complete the engine and all of the maps. I hope that I can accomplish this in the summer as I did with DoomLOH.
I have made slight comments here and there that I plan to only make one mod of Wolf3D after this. I do plan on making at least 1. But I have been growing a few ideas in my head. It's a lot of time to work on these things, and once summer hits this year, I hope to have a lot of free time after working to handle it.
We will see how things go, and I will play it one step at a time. I may not update again for some time (it's been 2 years here, but I say in a few months), because I would like to cross a good milestone before I update and maybe post screenshots. It's TBA for now, so for now, patience and excitement.

so, your making doom for wolfenstein?
how about after that make wolfenstein for doom?
Already exists...
Check "Wolfendoom"
i know about that,i have it on my computer.
oh and its called sarcasm.
Wat?Wot?ITS Not DeaD OmF gOd?13'
Nah! It's just been real slow progress. I'm working full time, and college, so I've been trying my best to make it good. I don't want to rush this one.
y mucho,descargate el programa skultag para jugar en un ordenador actual y juega en internet, a mi parecer el modo online es uno de los mejores que existen si los graficos como dicen mis amigos,no te hacen daño a la vista de lo malos que son"
I am a new content nut so...will you be adding any new monsters?
I was thinking about it, for like bosses/mini bosses. I haven't gotten that far into actually going through with it. Otherwise it won't be as great as a mod as I plan, just another DOOM port. I don't want to stray too far that it doesn't seem like DOOM though.
Thanks guys, don't expect me to hurry with this mod. I want it nice, and not like my last mod. If this one goes all good, my next mod will use this same engine, but yet modified even more.
Great, just great. Keep it up!

5.0 out of 5 stars The greatest audiotape ever!!!,
Amazon Customer "bigbenj" (Quezon City Philippines) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PowerTalk!: On Creating Extraordinary Relationships (Audio Cassette)
On Creating Extraordinary Relationships is a 3 hour tape series on how to make relationships work better through better communication, understanding and listening. The tapes talk about some basic differences between men and women and what to do about it. I had a lot of fun listening to it with my then girlfriend (now my wife!). We were laughing so hard because it was so funny yet so true! After listening to the tape we learned so much more about ourselves and each other. What makes it very valuable is Tony Robbins and John Gray cite so many examples and situations in our everyday life where conflicts arise and give practical insightful tips on how to improve the situation. Some of the words used also act as positive trigger devices that just by mention of the words during more challenging situations it makes the moment lighter. I love this so much I have to date bought 22 sets of this to give to friends! This is something I recommend highly!
5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and Packed with Practical information,
By A Customer
This review is from: PowerTalk!: On Creating Extraordinary Relationships (Audio Cassette)
Robbins has done it again. The Power Talk series is well known for providing interesting insights by top authorities. Dr. Gray is well known for his unique perspectives on relationships. The combination is electric. This is three hours of pure insight into how men and women relate, and how to make the relationships you have into the relationships you want. As if that wasn't enough, these guys are hilarious. You will enjoy this tape, and you will learn from it. Buy it!

Freshman Dorm: Sanfilippo
As I continue my work with the SCU Grand Reunion Class of 1983 30th year reunion committee, I am reminded just how deeply connections run among the SCU 'ohana (family). My wife (Mia '84) and our eldest daughter (Sam '10) both graduated from SCU as did my uncle and my quite legendary grandfather, A. Thomas Rowland '31, whose heart bleeds Bronco year in and year out. I take great pride that the SCU website speaks of, and gives a bit of credit to, "Grandpa Bud." Please allow me to share via "cut & paste": "In 1981, as part of the association's 100th anniversary celebration, Jerry Kerr '61, Bud Rowland '31, and Louis Bannan, S.J. proposed a special group be created to officially recognize alumni celebrating their Golden Reunion. The recommendation was unanimously approved by the Santa Clara University Alumni Association and, in honor of William Gianera, S.J., '1907 and University president from 1945-1951, the Gianera Society was formed. The Gianera Society is an honorary designation with membership limited to those undergraduate alumni whose class graduated from Santa Clara 50 or more years ago. The society's sole purpose is to pay tribute to the legacy provided by our "Golden Broncos" and acknowledge their long-standing loyalty to the University, their classmates, and the Alumni Association. Gianera Society members meet every year for a luncheon during the Grand Reunion Weekend in October to induct their newest members (those attending their 50th Reunion) and renew the camaraderie and lifelong friendships that developed and flourished at Santa Clara". Rest in Peace, Grandpa Bud.
