"These cards are awesome! The paper is nice and thick and the printing is really well done. The embossed 'hello' came out very nice!"
"I am so delighted by how my birth announcements turned out!!! I picked the elephant design as elephants are way cute ;) The lettering and font sizes look perfect and I love the lettering colors. The three photos arrangement was what I was looking for. I have hundreds of photos I've been adding to my online album each day. It was so easy to upload some top choices to my tiny prints account instantly. From there, I easily played around with dragging my photos into various arrangements. It was great to be able to save each project and make a decision on the best one. I made the right choice, as my announcements look so professional and sweet! All from photos snapped in the moment on my cell phone! No special baby photo session needed, all DIY by me & my husband :)"
"I was impressed with the wide selection. Also the easiness of assembling the images. User friendly and great professional results"
"The announcement cards came out very nice! We are more than happy with our cards. Can't wait to send them out to our family and friends."
"I loved our finished product! The metallic accent is simple, yet unique. Colors are fun and whimsical. Everyone complimented on how adorable the announcement was!"

Mets have interest in Ryan Ludwick
The Mets have interest in free-agent OF Ryan Ludwick, according to the New York Post's Joel Sherman.
"They may end up budgeting a few extra dollars to address their severe outfield needs," Sherman says.
Ludwick, who just turned 34 in July, hit .275 with a .346 OBP and .877 OPS with 26 home runs and 80 RBI in 422 at-bats over 122 games with the Reds in 2012. He hit .268 with 16 home runs and 46 RBI at Great American Ballpark, and hit .282 with 10 home runs and 34 RBI on the road.
The Reds have made an offer to Ludwick, the team's manager Dusty Baker told reporters today. The Mariners and Braves have also been linked to Ludwick in rumors this off season.
Matthew Cerrone, Lead Writer
Ludwick had nice year in Cincinnati. However, at 34 and looking for a multi-year deal, I'm skeptical. I'd be shocked if he gets a two-year deal, but with the way this free-agent outfield market has been playing out, who knows?

28 U.S. Code § 1406 - Cure or waiver of defects
(a) The district court of a district in which is filed a case laying venue in the wrong division or district shall dismiss, or if it be in the interest of justice, transfer such case to any district or division in which it could have been brought.
(b) Nothing in this chapter shall impair the jurisdiction of a district court of any matter involving a party who does not interpose timely and sufficient objection to the venue.
Source(June 25, 1948, ch. 646, 62 Stat. 937; May 24, 1949, ch. 139, § 81,63 Stat. 101; Pub. L. 86–770, § 1,Sept. 13, 1960, 74 Stat. 912; Pub. L. 87–845, § 10, Oct. 18, 1962, 76A Stat. 699; Pub. L. 97–164, title I, § 132,Apr. 2, 1982, 96 Stat. 39; Pub. L. 104–317, title VI, § 610(b),Oct. 19, 1996, 110 Stat. 3860.)
Historical and Revision Notes
1948 Act
Subsection (a) provides statutory sanction for transfer instead of dismissal, where venue is improperly laid.
Subsection (b) is declaratory of existing law. (See Panama R.R. Co. v. Johnson, 1924, 44 S.Ct. 391, 264 U.S. 375, 68 L.Ed. 748.) It makes clear the intent of Congress that venue provisions are not jurisdictional but may be waived.1949 Act
This section removes an ambiguity in section 1406 (a) of title 28, U.S.C., by substituting "may" for "shall", thus making it clear that the court may decline to transfer a case brought in the wrong district under circumstances where it would not be in the interest of justice to make such transfer. [The amendment to section 1406 (a) of this title described in this note was altered in the bill as enacted. See Cong. Rec., vol. 95, pt. 5, pp. 5826, 5827, 6283, 6284.]
1996—Subsec. (c). Pub. L. 104–317amended subsec. (c) generally. Prior to amendment, subsec. (c) read as follows: "As used in this section, 'district court' includes the United States District Court for the District of the Canal Zone; and 'district' includes the territorial jurisdiction of that court."
1982—Subsecs. (c), (d). Pub. L. 97–164redesignated subsec. (d) as (c). Former subsec. (c), which provided that if a case within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Claims were filed in a district court, the district court, if it were in the interest of justice, was required to transfer the case to the Court of Claims where the case would proceed as if it had been filed in the Court of Claims on the date that it was filed in the district court, was struck out.
1962—Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 87–845added subsec. (d).
1960—Subsec. (c). Pub. L. 86–770added subsec. (c).
1949—Subsec. (a). Act May 24, 1949, inserted "dismiss, or if it be in the interest of justice".
Effective Date of 1996 Amendment
Amendment by Pub. L. 104–317applicable to cases pending on Oct. 19, 1996, and to cases commenced on or after such date, see section 610(c) ofPub. L. 104–317, set out as a note under section 1404 of this title.
Effective Date of 1982 Amendment

(c) of this section and section 1506 of this title] shall apply to any case or proceeding pending on, or brought after, the date of enactment of this Act [Sept. 13, 1960] in the district courts or the Court of Claims."

In the early morning hours of April 30, a male subject reportedly robbed a lone bartender at knifepoint at Big Dog's Club, located at at 27 North 100 West in Price.
The suspect fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of money after ordering the bartender to lock herself in a back room at the establishment.
Statements from patrons who spoke to the suspect prior to the robbery, and police follow-up investigations led Price City Police to the Carbonville home of James Joe Waldrop, 48 years of age.
Waldrop was arrested by Price City Police Detective Susan Hyde at his home on the afternoon of April 30, 2009. Assisting with the arrest were Officer Brandon Sicilia, Deputy Travis Henrie and Captain Kevin Drolc.
Waldrop was booked into the Carbon County Jail on a charge of aggravated obbery.

Castleview Hospital got a new addition to their equipment inventory recently. It was an in-house MRI facility.
This means those having MRI's will no longer have to go "to the trailer" that used tobe parked outside the hospital to have procedures with the machine done there. This 960 square foot addition has allowed the hospital to bring an improved high-definition magnetic resonance system to Castleview Hospital.
The new GE Healthcare's Signa HDE 1.5 MR system provides physicians with enhanced clinical and productivity advantages, while creating a platform for new technologies and applications.
Typical Signa HDE 1.5 MR system procedures include neurological/brain imaging, spine studies, orthopedic-including all extremities and joints, including hands, pelvis MRIs for males and females, abdominal exams including MRCP, specialized vascular applications (MRA), functional and spectroscopic imaging and breast imaging.
For the patient this means: added comfort and easier exam positions with it's generous 60cm patient opening and full 45 cm field of view, reduced rescanning/ redundant exams due to patient or organ motion, docking table and dual sided comfort for efficiency and patient safety, plus enhanced visual imaging (improved image quality).
The new modular unit was built in Indiana and shipped to Price where it was attached directly to the existing structure.
The magnet was roof loaded. Crews later finished roof and exterior work on-site. The new unit will be up and running April 5.
The total cost for construction and the new equipment was $1.5 million.

Hi everyone,
I am the proud owner of Samson, who is an approximately 4-year-old Pitbull and Lab mix. Although he is half lab, most people who see him automatically think he is a Pitbull and comment on how "Pitbull" he looks. Kind of reminds me of a pitbull with a more slender body (his head looks big for his body, haha ) Works in my favor living near a questionable area. Guys usually don't bug me when I'm walking him (I am a 26-year-old female). I hate the negative stereotypes about Bully breeds, but at the same time, appreciate that the dog looks intimidating enough for people to leave me alone. For example, the other day, I was walking him and stopped for a rest in a patch of grass. This guy walked right up to me (seemed mentally unstable and/or on drugs) and as soon as he saw Samson, he was like, "Oh! Oh! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" and quickly walked away. Samson did not even make an advance (I have not trained him to be hostile). The guy was just scared by how he looked.
Samson is adopted from the animal shelter and was staying at a Pitbull rescue when we got him. Unfortunately, he had been sent back twice before getting into our hands. The main reason for this is because he has SEVERE food allergies to wheat, corn, rice, possibly potato, beef, chicken, and more. I've got him on NutriSource Grain Free and he seems to do OK, although suffers from hot spots and has dry skin. He may also have a grass allergy that could worsen these symptoms. When he suffers from bad outbreaks (such as when someone at the park throws food onto the ground and he lunges at it before I can stop him) I have to put the "cone of shame" on him to prevent him from scratching himself into something resembling ground beef.
I have been working with him on leash training. When I first got him, he pulled very badly. I used the method where one turns around and also used rewards. It didn't take him long to learn.
He is also extremely intelligent when it comes to inventing his own games. One of his favorite games is fetch with a ball, but he also figured out how to roll the ball down hills toward me rather than bringing it to me. He also does it on slides at playground.
I take him to a park to throw his ball, and he is extremely focused on his ball and completely ignores other dogs and children. In fact, another dog walked up to him the other day to check him out, but because I had his ball in my hand, he acted like the dog wasn't there. The only "bone" to pick is that if he sees another ball being thrown or kicked, he may go after it. He tried to get some little girls' softball (I apologized profusely and luckily the parents were gracious) and also took some dudes' football, which they found funny, but I was so embarrassed.
He also has problems with getting bored and running off if he can get the chance. The other day I was letting him out to go potty, and I got distracted for a second and he ran off. I found him a block away going into neighbors' yards and COMPLETELY ignoring me.
He also is TERRIBLE with crate training. I feed the dog in his crate every day and he goes in there with little problem, but he leaves his rear end out so you can't shut the door. We went on a camping trip this last weekend and needed him to go into his crate. Normally we can get him to eat food in it and then shove his back end in there if we have to. I know this isn't the way, and it's only for emergencies. Well, he knew we were going somewhere and wouldn't even get near the crate. He tried running away when I called him. Unfortunately we had to leave him in our basement for a day with plenty of water, food, and an entire mattress to sleep on. He did fine, but I feel like a bad dog owner nevertheless. I don't know why my husband wouldn't let me have him uncrated in the car (with a leash), but he was being extremely firm on not letting the dog be in the car without a crate. Guess he was paranoid about some scratches, even though I had lined the entire back area with blankets.
Anyway, so I have come here for some help with training this extremely intelligent, independent dog. I love him as if he is my child and will do anything to make our relationship better. I have him well-trained in some areas, and in other areas I am completely at a loss.
By the way, I also have another dog, a full-bred chihuahua, long-haired, apple-head. Very much like the Taco Bell dog. This is my first time on a dog forum, but I help moderate an automotive forum and belong to a Nissan Leaf forum as well, since I just got one. I'd been afraid to join because people are so opinionated about dogs, and I am scared I will be raked over the coals. In fact, I once told a coworker that our chihuahua loves his crate, and he lectured me on how terrible I was for putting him in a cage, etc. Thus, I have been very honest with my situation and I hope people will be willing to help and non-judgmental. TIA!

Healthcare is by far the largest and fastest-growing industry in the United States, accounting for more than 16 percent of GDP. The cost and quality of healthcare delivery has become a paramount concern for consumers, employers and employees, as well as local and national governments. Debates, controversies and problems emerge almost daily in the news, yet the complexities of the issues are not generally well understood. New technologies and methods of delivering and paying for healthcare are transforming the industry and providing new opportunities for existing and new players in the field.
This course provides an overview of the U.S. healthcare industry; the major players involved in the payment, production and delivery of healthcare; and the key challenges and opportunities facing healthcare executives, investors and policymakers. Topics include strategies for addressing costs, quality and access, and the perspectives of consumers, payers, providers and producers/suppliers (e.g., pharmaceutical and medical-device companies). Emphasis is placed on challenges and opportunities afforded by new legislation, information technology, and new methods of healthcare delivery and payment. Though the focus is on the United States, comparisons with healthcare systems in other countries are also discussed.

So this guy in California gets a ticket, and hefty fine, for driving alone in the carpool lane recently. But, he argues, he most certainly was NOT alone, he had his incorporation papers with him, and the courts have ruled that a corporation is a person, so, he argues, there were 2 people in the car, satisfying the law!Turns out the guy's an activist who wants to challenge the idea of corporate personhood in the courts. I hope he wins. I do enjoy creative ways to challenge silly laws. He's already lost at the local superior court level, but vows to appeal.http://www.marinij.com/novato/ci_22328805/san-rafael-activists-corporation-was-his-carpool-buddy
I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one.
Has a corporation ever been killed in Afgahnistan? Or is that the fate of their employees?I see the 'WEST' is now getting involved in Africa. Is there any oil in Algeria or Mali?
Okay, I am confused. I thought a corporation was a voluntary association; a cooperative endeavor. This means we have the freedom to associate with whomever we choose for a common goal; and as such a corporation does not have the right to restrict the rights of any other group or individual; or to initiate force against anyone. Now there are bad corporations, and our legal system should deal with the bad apples. Not all corporations are bad; not all are good.So if corporations are bad by definition (Soylent Green), then it logically follows that good people would not do business with any corporation. So if we define corporations as evil, we would be evil to purchase goods and services from all corporations. Some corporations that come to my mind are:American Recreation Products, Inc. (Kelty, Sierra Designs)Aqamira Technologies, Inc. Backcountry.com, Inc. Beartooth Media Group, Inc.Brooks Sports, Inc. Brunton, Inc. Cabot Hoisery Mills, Inc. (Darn Tough Vermont)Campmor, Inc. Cascade Designs, Inc. Kahtoola, Inc. Mountain Hardwear, Inc. Mountain Safety Research, Inc. New Balance Athletic Shoes, Inc. Patagonia, Inc.Recreational Equipment, IncTarptents, Inc. VF Corporation (Smartwool, Jansport, Timberland, The North Face, Vans, Eagle Creek, Lee, Wrangler)Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. Wolverine Worldwide, Inc. (Merrell, Saucony, Chaco, Patagonia Footear-licensed brand)Taking it further, LLCs (Limited Liabilty Company) have similar protections under the law as corporations. Some that come to mind are:Alpacka Raft, LLCAndrew Skukra Adventures, LLCantigravitygear, LLCGoLite, LLCJacks 'R' Better, LLCMountainfitter, LLCTrail Deigns, LLCzPacks, LLCNow I am not saying any of the above are bad, in fact, I have and will continue to do business with most of them.Another thing, if one thinks corporations are bad, you better go check the contents of your retirement holdings (if you have one).If I have incorrectly identified any corporation or LLC, it was not intentional.Last note: just my contrarian nature. Plus, the ball and chain made me stay at home this weekend to do "to dos." But alas, she hasn't learned that I cannot be trusted alone without direct supervision :)
An impressive number of words to post without addressing the personhood issue.
What is the personhood issue?
Ah, Nick, you misunderstood my subject line (perhaps you've never seen the movie). Spoiler Alert!: Soylent Green is something people eat, it's not the corporation (it is the Soylent Corporation). At the end of the movie, Charlton Heston yells: You can have my Soylent Green when you pry it ......... oops, wrong video. Heston shouts: Soylent Green, it's people!So I was simply, in my subject line, cheekily saying that corporations are people. It had nothing to do with good/evil (though I do disagree with the legal concept of corporate personhood, but that's a different matter, and also not a matter of good/evil).
"So I was simply, in my subject line, cheekily saying that corporations are people."And I listed a lot of corporations with really nice people too :)
"I see the 'WEST' is now getting involved in Africa. Is there any oil in Algeria or Mali?"Perhaps re-involved would be a better way to put it. There was that quaint little idea of the White Man's burden going around in the last half of the 19th and first half of the 20th centuries, which was reluctantly assumed by the Brits, French, Portuguese, et al. Nothing to do with resources, of course. Oil and gas in Algeria? A bit, I'd say. The recent hostage taking in Algeria took place at In Aminaas, a huge natural gas producing facility. Algeria is also a major oil producer.
BTW, regarding my first post... I was just getting ahead of the curve - before my friend Jerry posted ;)
Another thing...Car pool lanes are stupid. We would reduce congestion in the remaining lanes and reduce fuel consumption & emissions during rush hourd by eliminating them. If people want to car pool great. But let individuals decide for themselves.
What? I haven't posted anything???Okay, if I'm going to be blamed for postingCorporations are neither good nor badIt's just a way some people can invest and limit the liability to their personal assets if the corporation goes badThey are created with a government charter, so it's fair the government regulate themTo start, they shouldn't be allowed to bribe politicians so they make favorable laws:And the corporation should treat all shareholders the same, not pass inside information to some investors, break laws, etc.A corporation is not a person entitled to constitutional rights, although it's complicated because a government person should be required to get a court order before a search which is a constitutional rightCorporations should be subject to death penalty - if they behave too badly they should be disolvedAnd that 20 ounce soft drink law is a great idea. Makes no sense at face value, because someone could order two drinks, buy given human psychology, it's possible that soft drink consumption will go down. Making the law and us talking about it may result in reduced soft drink consumption. Obesity is an epedemic One of the causes of our out of control medical expenses We need to try different things. Drop those that don't work and try others...
"Obesity is an epedemic One of the causes of our out of control medical expenses We need to try different things. Drop those that don't work and try others..."I know it's not very fashionable these days, but how about trying restraint and personal responsibility? Just a thought.....

"That works for individuals ... But what do we do as a country, just say it's up to individuals and leave it at that? Let the epedemic worsen until the country is bankrupted?"I thought we were talking about obesity. If so, then yes, we leave it up to individuals, since they're the ones getting fat. You simply can't legislate gluttony away.
First thing tomorrow morning I am driving down to Starbucks and buying a Venti Caramel Frappacinio with whipped cream. Maybe I'll get a cream cheese pastery too.I think I can make rational decisions regarding my personal health.
"I thought we were talking about obesity. If so, then yes, we leave it up to individuals, since they're the ones getting fat. You simply can't legislate gluttony away.I think I can make rational decisions regarding my personal health."The cost of medical care is a crisis worse than just about any problem we've faced. It keeps taking a bigger share of the economy. Medicare/Medicaid, government pensions, private companies, and individuals are all being squeezed. The constitution says that the government is supposed to promote the general welfare, so it should play a role in solving this.We need more imaginative solutions, like going after the obesity epidemic. The 20 ounce soft drink ban is not much of a solution, but at least it's got us talking about it, yes? Increasing taxes for Medicare/Medicaid or fixing the amount paid by the government leaving the individual to make up the ever increasing difference is not a solution.Continuing on like we've been going is crazy - "Look mom! Taylor Swift says we should get some more Pepsi!"
The Constitution is about the limitation of government, not the conduct of individuals. It is not a charter of the Government's power; but about protecting individuals from government. In regards to the conduct of individuals, see the Declaration of Independence and The Bill of Rights. One reason the Constitution replaced the Articles of Confederation was the inability to raise the money to pay debts incurred to finance the Revolutionary War. The new government could not succeed if it could not pay its debts; thus putting the General Welfare of the country, as a whole, at risk. So on to the Constitution, as a document to lay out the powers (limitation thereof). Now go read Article I, Section 8. It starts with this introductory paragraph:"The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;"Below this introduction, are several sentences each beginning with, "To..." Each sentence enumerates what is meant by the introductionary paragraph. The General Welfare means the welfare of the Country as a whole -- nothing about the welfare of individuals -- that is outlined in the DOI and BORs.
"The General Welfare means the welfare of the Country as a whole -- nothing about the welfare of individuals"Look at wikipedia general welfareThere has always been an argument about whether to interpret narrowly, like you are, or broadly, that says the government can tax and spend it on welfare of individuals.During Washington and Adams administrations, it was interpreted broadly.Then, until 1936, it was interpreted narrowlySince 1936, it's been interpreted broadlyHopefully, we won't go back to "the bad old days" that you're advocatingHopefully, we won't go back to slavery and not allowing women to vote
"Look at wikipedia general welfare"Now that is a good source. How about reading the Federalist (papers) and other writings of the time. Of course there was not a consensus. Jefferson/Madison vs Hamilton. Very important to read John Locke, as he influenced our founding fathers -- some of his writings were copied almost verbatim into the Declaration of Independence. And since Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, ready everything he wrote.How about the early dictionary by Noah Webster? That would give us an indication of the meaning in that time in history, wouldn't it? 1828 Noah Webster Dictionary:WEL'FARE, noun [well and fare, a good going; German wohlfahrt; Dutch welvaart; Swedish valfart; Danish velfoerd.]1. Exemption from misfortune, sickness, calamity or evil; the enjoyment of health and the common blessings of life; prosperity; happiness; applied to persons.2. Exemption from any unusual evil or calamity; the enjoyment of peace and prosperity, or the ordinary blessings of society and civil government; applied to states.200 years ago welfare for individuals meant good fortune. Exact opposite of today, where welfare means government support. #2 would support the general welfare clause, as stated in the Constitution. And lets do go back to the good old days when Individual Rights triumphed. Sure there were problems, you couldn't undo centuries of problems overnight. If we take your definition of General Welfare, it means everyone; and you cannot include EVERYONE in any government program, programs always exclude someone. If one person is excluded, then there is no common good; programs for the common good, or your definition of general welfare, are exclusionary and discriminate by nature. The true common good is to let each person decide for themselves -- then no one is excluded.

Flashback: The Rangers 2002 Coaching Search (Daily News Edition)
Following his second straight season leading the Rangers, Ron Low was not retained as head coach in the spring of 2002.
At the time, GM Glen Sather said to the Daily News "I think the obvious answer is that we haven't made the playoffs in two years. I don't think it's just the coach's responsibility in a situation like this. We all have to share equally in this. But in every situation, there's someone that ends up taking the blame in these kinds of deals and it's generally the coach that does."
The search for a replacement started immediately and 1999 Stanley Cup winner Ken Hitchcock was at the top of the list.
Below is an account of the Rangers search for a head coach in the spring of 2002 as told through the Daily News.
April 16, 2002: Glen Sather has been given permission from the Dallas Stars to speak to Hitchcock but had yet to contact him. Strong candidates besides Hitchcock are Hartford Wolfpack coach John Paddock, former Rangers coach Herb Brooks and possibly Pat Burns. Director of Player Personnel Tom Renney is not expected to garner much consideration.
April 16, 2002: The Daily News writes "The knocks against him are that he is too rigid in his insistence upon adherence to his system and too negative in his barking on the bench. The concern is that he would alienate Rangers stars such as Eric Lindros and Pavel Bure while preventing certain free agents from signing with the team. "Our system has nothing to do with when we have the puck at all," Hitchcock said. "And I'm never telling a Pavel Bure or Eric Lindros or Brett Hull or Mike Modano what to do with the puck – that's just not happening. But defensive hockey to me – and that is just the play without the puck – there isn't a lot of room for negotiation."
April 17, 2002: The Daily News says that Glen Sather has been granted permission to talk to Herb Brooks and that Brooks is only interested in returning to coaching if it is with the Rangers.
On Brooks, the paper writes"Back in 1980, fresh off having orchestrated the Miracle on Ice, Brooks was interviewed by Sather about possibly joining the staff of the Edmonton Oilers. Both men view the game being about speed, creativity and entertainment. However, Brooks soon after was hired to coach the Rangers by then-GM Patrick. Brooks went 131-113-41 as Rangers head coach from 1981-82 through the middle of 1984-85. An innovator who brought a puck-possession style to the NHL at a time when dump-and-chase ruled, Brooks guided his smallish Rangers "Smurfs" to the playoffs in each of his four full seasons at the helm but couldn't get them past the Islanders. "
April 20, 2002: Mike Keenan has been contacted about the Rangers opening but has turned the team down and has decided to stay in Florida with the Panthers. While that happened, Sather and Hitch spent the day in NY talking about the organization and touring the new practice facility set to open a few months later. On the meeting, Hitch said "From my standpoint, everything felt very good."
April 22, 2002: The Panthers are accusing the Rangers of tampering in regards to their conversations with Mike Keenan about their head coaching position.
April 24, 2002: Pavel Bure asked Keenan to call Glen Sather and ask about the head coaching position. Keenan apparently hadn't asked for permission to talk with the Rangers and Sather ended the conversation when he found that out. Dave Tippett, Jacques Martin and Joel Quenville are all potential coaching options but still in the playoffs.
April 27, 2002: Herb Brooks wants the job and is going to meet with Glen Sather to talk about it. Sather has also met with former Sabres coach Ted Nolan along with Hitchcock.
May 1, 2002: The Flyers are now in the mix for Hitchcock and while Hitch is the Rangers top target, Eric Lindros reportedly told Sather that he didn't want to play under Hitch. Hitch is also expressing interest in the Flyers opening and Sather is planning to meet with Pat Burns, Dave Tippett and if granted permission from the Devils, Larry Robinson.
May 6, 2002: Brooks and Sather are finally going to talk in person, at Sather's home in California, and the two are on the same page with having a brand of "entertaining hockey."
May 7, 2002: The process of picking a coach appears to be winding down as Brooks was the last high profile candidate that Sather planned to meet with. He has met with Hitchcock and "longshot" Ted Nolan. He isn't going to meet with Pat Burns who is expected to get the job in Philly nd is still waiting to talk with Guy Carbonneau of Montreal and Dave Tippett of the Kings. Mike Johnston, an assistant coach in Vancouver, is reportedly also in the running for the job.
Brooks may have an inside shot at the job because his hiring could lure Chris Chelios and Bill Guerin, two players from the 2002 USA Olympic team, to the Rangers.
May 9, 2002: Sather is going to meet with LA assistant coach Dave Tippett who is one of the most highly regarded assistant coaches in the league. Tippett is also a former teammate of Eric Lindros in Philadelphia and is being credited with LA's improved offensive game.
May 10, 2002: Larry Robinson has withdrawn his name from the Rangers coaching search as he wanted to take some time to decide what he wanted his future in hockey to be.
Pat Burns reportedly got a negative report from his previous employers in Boston and that ruined his chances. Ted Nolan reportedly never had much of a chance.
In terms of the top candidates for the job, "Herb Brooks has the inside track. Ken Hitchcock? He still wants to coach the Rangers very badly, but it is clear that a reputation for relentless negativity has damaged his otherwise impeccable candidacy."
Brooks reportedly "wowed" Sather during their meeting in Palm Springs. Hitchcock, once the front runner, is giving Sather pause because of many reports of his negativity hurting his players.
May 11, 2002: Hitchcock is reportedly close to joining the Flyers as their head coach and Herb Brooks is now undecided if he wants to return to coaching. Dave Tippett just interviewed with Glen Sather but he also interviewed with the Dallas Stars. With his top choices now in limbo, Sather is going to set up meetings with Guy Carbonneau and Colorado assistant Bryan Trottier. Brooks is reportedly also considering a full-time role with USA Hockey.
May 15, 2002: Hitchcock signs a four year deal with the Flyers. He reportedly never had a follow up meeting with Glen Sather and Flyers President Ed Snider said that once he found out Hitch wasn't going to be the Rangers coach, he moved quickly to sign him.
Sather reportedly wasn't comfortable with the idea of Hitchcock being a negative person who focuses on what his team lacks and struggles with. Pavel Bure and Eric Lindros were both against Hitch being hired by the Rangers because of his no-nonsense defense approach.
Herb Brooks is the favorite but still isn't positive he wants to return full-time to coaching.
May 16, 2002: Brooks and Sather have started contract talks but Brooks is having doubts about returning to coaching and the situation now seems "doomed." Tippett is about to be introduced as head coach of the Dallas Stars and Carbonneau could replace Michel Therrien in Montreal.
The Rangers may be forced to look at a second tier of candidates that includes John Paddock, who was passed over for the job in 2000, and Ted Nolan. Sather has some issues with bringing in Nolan since he has been out of the game for a few years.
Brooks reportedly has taken issue with not being offered the job earlier and isn't sure he wants to coach for an organization that isn't behind him, "Brooks has never been comfortable with working for organizations that have any doubts about him – he resigned from the Devils after the 1992-93 season when GM Lou Lamoriello delayed his announcement that he wanted him back. And the Rangers' failure to offer him the job in the week and a half since he met with Sather is a signal that Sather wasn't as convinced as Brooks would hope. What's more, while a shot at the only big coaching prize that has eluded him has tantalized the 64-year-old Brooks, a possible run at a Stanley Cup couldn't trump his need to remain close to his Minnesota-based family and his life-long quest to further the cause of American hockey. "
May 17, 2002: "Glen Sather's surprising fascination with Herb Brooks fell apart Wednesday and came to a crashing end yesterday with neither man feeling very fulfilled by the process. "
Ted Nolan doesn't care where he fits on the Rangers list, he just wants a shot ""Whether I'm the second choice or the 10th doesn't matter to me at all. "I'm hungry to do it and I strongly believe that what the Rangers need is hunger. That's what I have to offer." Nolan hasn't heard from Sather since their first meeting.
May 19, 2002: Brooks has withdrawn from the Rangers coaching search saying, "The New York Rangers and New York are very special to me – the Rangers are the team I 'broke in' with. "Also, the level of respect I have for Glen Sather and his accomplishments and philosophy is so high. But because of that, I just didn't feel it would be right. Because where I am in my life right now, I just couldn't make the kind of commitment that New York and the Rangers deserve."
Brooks was reportedly done with coaching following a stint as a replacement in Pittsburgh but rekindled his passion during the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City. He reportedly told Sather that he would coach and prepare the team in practice, but let Sather run the bench during the games.
Remaining candidates are listed as Ted Nolan, John Paddock, Walt Kyle (a candidate in 2000 and a Rangers assistant,) Guy Carbonneau, Pat Burns ("With league shutdown threatened for 2004, short-term firebrand might fit,") Detroit assistant Dave Lewis, Bryan Trottier ("made a poor first impression with Sather,) Barry Melrose and Mike Keenan.
May 22, 2002: Carbonneau seems likely to return to Dallas in a front office role that is being created just for him. Nolan, after not hearing anything, called up Glen Sather "I wanted to tell him that I was still very interested and see if there was anything else I could do. "He said he had a lot of work to do and probably would get back to the coaching situation again this week."
June 5, 2002: The lead of the Daily News is "A man who once spent many a night on Madison Square Garden ice wrecking Rangers seasons now is on the verge of going behind the home team's bench in order to point it back in a winning direction." Bryan Trottier has been offered the head coaching job by Glen Sather and an announcement is expected by the end of the week.
Trottier was a finalist for the jobs in Chicago and Columbus in the past couple of years and as recently as a week ago was considered to be a long shot.
In a last ditch effort, Sather asked Herb Brooks to reconsider, which Brooks did but only if he could get a short-term deal with a high base salary, signing bonus in Cablevision stock and the only performance based bonus being a Stanley Cup Championship.
June 6, 2002: In 1990, Trottier asked Neil Smith to play for the Rangers but the two decided that a fit wasn't right. When it was believed that Smith wanted to fire John Muckler as head coach, Colorado GM Pierre Lacroix called Smith to promote Trottier as a head coaching candidate. Smith was fired and Lacroix called Glen Sather to promote Trottier.
His contract is for three years and a reported $750,000 per season. The paper writes "He'll need it to somehow mold the Rangers into a cohesive unit that can both entertain on offense and not embarrass itself defensively. Trottier never went five straight seasons without making the playoffs as a player or coach. The team he's taking over has done just that."
June 7, 2002: Trottier reportedly won Sather over by responding to Sather's questionnaire with over 80 pages of hand written detailed look at coaching strategy. Sather weighed that along with the glowing reports he received from other executives and colleagues of Trottier when he decided to offer him the job.
Sather said "When it got down to the end and Bryan and I finally met with each other (last weekend in New York), it didn't take very long for me to decide that he was the guy that I wanted to see guide the New York Rangers."
June 7, 2002: Columnist Sherry Ross writes "Rangers general manager Glen Sather spent weeks assessing head-coaching candidates. There were multiple interviews, checking of references and seeking of opinions. And he still got it wrong. If any other team had hired Bryan Trottier, you might admire the decision to take a chance on a familiar yet fresh face, giving a chance to a newcomer to the head-coaching ranks instead of hiring one of the same old retreads. But the Rangers are not any other team. Coaching the Rangers in any given year provides more of a challenge than any other American-based team in the National Hockey League."
The title of Ross' article is "The Wrong Man For The Wrong Team"
January 30, 2003: "Of all the many big, expensive risks Glen Sather has taken as Rangers general manager, none was more difficult to fathom than his hiring of Bryan Trottier as head coach last June. That risk having failed spectacularly, Sather fired Trottier yesterday in a desperate attempt to save yet another season that is teetering on the brink of oblivion."

Both the Indian Canyon and the Energy Loop, or Huntington and Eccles Canyon National Scenic Byways, provide breathtaking views of scenery in the area.
This beautiful canyon is called the Energy Loop because of the coal mines throughout the mountain terrain that provide fuel to power plants. Electric Lake provides water for the Huntington Power Plant located down the mountain.
Maintained by state and national agencies, the Byway provides a series of kiosks for the well-informed traveler. Relax, enjoy the picturesque atmosphere and learn the geologic, historical and environmental background of each region.
The Indian Canyon Byway follows an old Native American trail used for travel between Price Valley and the Uinta Basin. Once you get off the primary route of US-191/6, the Byway narrows and travels along Willow Creek.
You will see wide open vistas and pass through the beginnings of the Roan and Book Cliff formations. Peaking at 9100-feet Indian Pass, the Byway passes through the Ashley National Forest and a unique display of rock formations. The vegetation here includes pinyon, juniper, aspen and Douglas fir. Elk and deer sightings are common.
The contrasts of autumn foliage are particularly beautiful. From the summit, the road follows Indian Canyon through desert terrain bordering Indian Creek. At the Byway's end lies the town of Duchesne, settled in 1904.
Home to thousands of plant species, enjoy the many varieties of trees and flowers. Bird watchers appreciate the solitude of watching meadow larks, eagles, hawks and a multitude of birds that live or migrate through Castle Country. Hunting season brings game hunters from all over the world to try their skill against the elk, deer, bear and mountain lions that call the loop home.
Leisurely follow crystal clear streams that follow or intersect the loop. Or, challenge yourself to a high-mountain trail filled with sheer ascents and canyons that drop thousands of feet demanding skill and strict attention.
Picnic in well maintained campgrounds or in a secluded grove of aspens and pines. Camp where amenities abound or so far away that no amenities can be found.
Enjoy the seasons along the loop. Spring, with its bulging streams, budding trees, melting snow and promise of renewal. Summer, filled with bright wild-flowers, crystal streams, dense foliage and peaceful enjoyment.
Autumn comes alive with the fiery colors of an enchanted forest to be seen; but not quite believed. Winter creates a study in contrasts from the whiteness of the snow and rich green of the pines to the quiet cross-country skier seeking the quiet solitude of the snow, or to the thrill-seeking, rambunctious snowmobiler.

LAFARGEVILLE LaFargeville Central will ask district voters in May to approve a $10.5 million budget that carries a 3.6 percent tax levy increase.
Under the districts state tax cap calculations, LaFargeville can raise the levy by up to 5.2 percent in the 2013-14 fiscal year without requiring a supermajority approval.
The total levy, or amount to be raised through property taxes, will be $3,495,459 up $120,693 from this year.
The levy increase is projected to hike the tax rate by 29 cents to $8.46 per $1,000 of assessed value, a 3.5 percent increase.
District officials said the tax rate could go down after the new Price Chopper which is near Interstate 81 in the town of Alexandria but is in the LaFargeville Central School District is added to the tax roll.
Assuming the Price Chopper on Route 12 is assessed at $2 million, LaFargevilles projected tax rate would be $8.42 per $1,000.
As with last year, the district will use $945,000 from its fund balance to buy down the levy.
LaFargeville Superintendent Susan L. Whitney said the district should have enough left in its fund balance next year to apply the same amount.
If approved by voters in May, the districts total spending for 2013-14 will be $10,528,501.
That is a $365,455, or 3.6 percent, increase over this year most of which was attributed to a $323,127 increase in employee benefit costs.
LaFargeville Centrals Board of Education will hold a budget hearing at 7 p.m. May 13 at the library, Sunrise Avenue, and the vote is May 21.

ORONO, Maine (NEWS CENTER)-- There are more than 140,000 veterans living in Maine. As many return from deployment they are faced with another battle, re-integrating into society. The Brooklyn-based theater group Outside the Wire uses Greek tales of warriors returning from war to help bridge the communication gap between veterans and their families. Some of Hollywood's biggest names have joined the project including Oscar nominated David Strathairn.
The Theatre of War crew visited University of Maine in Orono to offer a performance. More than a hundred attendees participated in the event and the following discussion. The settings are always intimate with no cameras or media allowed to put the audience at ease and encourage discussion.
David Strathairn said, "When you're doing a normal play the audience normally doesn't talk about your feelings...To have a discussion that is as open and as frank as this one was tonight, and it's always like this in whatever room we do it in, it happens. It's proof that it's a really powerful way to bring people together over a particular issue that will help their lives."
Strathairn said each of the discussions are equally if not more emotion than the one before.
"Each and every time you see a lot of pain. You see a lot of hope. You see a lot of need. You see a lot of places where the ball has been dropped. More and more we see how the culture of support has started to grow and so it's quite moving and it can make you feel...just make you feel," said Strathairn.
According to the long-time actor, this discussion and ability to open the floor to communication has been the purpose of plays all along.
Outside the Wire uses theatre performances to tackle other social issues such as alcohol in the military, combat-related psychological injuries, and substance abuse. Upcoming performances and more information can be found on the organization's website.
The Lunder-Dineen Health Education Alliance of Maine joined forces with the theater group and offers resources for re-integrating veterans and their families.

We are turning on ourselves.... we need to fight the common enemy... Microsoft !!!
/me gets out his Bill Gates doll, pours lighter fluid on it, and burns him in effigy. *;D
Eh boy... anyone else is reminded of "Lord of the Flies"? I mean, all the boys were divided appart, they couldn't live together? That's kindda what's happening here.
For those who quit because you had an argument with someone, or are disappointed because not everyone thinks like you do, you need to know two (GnuVince's two) things
- It is in human nature to argue with each other, but that doesn't mean that when you don't like the argument of a few members of a society that you must leave the entire society
- Do you really think that there's a place on the Internet where all your choices/opinions/beliefs will be respected and never be attacked? If you do, I got news for you: quit the internet.
- My mom taught me not to let conflicts go unsolved if they can be solved. Why don't you guys start a thread in which you explain what hurt you exactly, so that other members know which points to to touch when they argue with you?
This being said, stryder144 don't not talk (Wow, can I do nice sentences or what?) Instead, just do like I do: do not read threads you think could hurt you. I didn't read the thread for two reasons:
1. I knew that it would fuel a millenia-old flamewar
2. This stuff about religion arguments just bores the hell out of me, and I couldn't give a rat's butt about what other people think of what I believe.
We are turning on ourselves.... we need to fight the common enemy... Microsoft !!!
/me gets out his Bill Gates doll, pours lighter fluid on it, and burns him in effigy. *;D
Styrder??? you too? wth?? here i have been thinking about ways to have this site grow and it looks like I should be more concerned with not bleeding poeple.
You sir are one of the most level headed people here...
I read the threads and I participated in some of them, I think. But all you need is the ability to take it like a man with grown up mind.
So what??
No one said any one has to agree with anybody and no one said you have to take everything whatever everyone says. All you have to do is say it your self " ah stupid people " and move on.
And sometimes it helps to break stuff. When I get really pissed, I go outside and cut tree limbs with my katana. It really helps to release your anger, and if you cut yourself, that speeds up the process.
Man, I just don't see the points in all this is happening......
I read Thank you America thread ( which is locked ) and see no ovrious language nor intention to be offensive. The world according to America is a little getting out of hand ( and thus deserve locking ) but it could have been worse on LNO. Not that I think we should reamble as on LNO but it's just that it's not even near an outbrake nor anything to spark someone to leave it. And I think even IF you DO leave, why make a noise?? : There are times when I just don't log on to LJR for some days and then everything is fine. Just ignore what you don't like. If you don't have that ability, may be you can't live in society.

- How to Read a Study Record
Data suggests that women taking drugs to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have higher amounts of drugs in their body compared with men taking the same dose of anti-HIV drugs. The reason for this higher drug exposure has not yet been determined. The primary purpose of this study is to examine whether a pharmacokinetics (factors that determine the amount of drug in the body) of anti-HIV drugs change during different phases of the menstrual cycle in women and ultimately result in higher amounts of drug in the body compared with men. In other words, we plan to examine whether changes in sex hormones throughout the menstrual cycle affect the amount of anti-HIV drugs in HIV infected women. The antiretroviral drugs atazanavir, ritonavir, tenofovir and emtricitabine will be studied.

Outsider's Look: Jacksonville Jaguars
Brian Bassett , TheJetsBlog.com
We try to look at the Jets opponents every week and take some of the statistical numbers from Football Outsiders to better understand what the Jets will be facing on Sunday. Reminder, positive percentages are good on offense and specials, bad on defense.
Pass Offense: -12.2% (30th)
Rush Offense: -20.6% (31st)
O-Line Adjusted Line Yards: 3.80 Yards (25th)
O-Line Adj. Sack Rate: 8.2% (28th)
Analysis: Let's put some things in perspective. For as tough a time as the Jets have had this season, it hasn't looked like this. Jacksonville has had their 10th overall pick from just a year ago go down with a torn labrum in his non-throwing shoulder and been placed in IR. In his stead, former Dolphins QB Chad Henne has come in and sparked the offense. Still, with a substandard line and a hampered rushing attack because of a year MJD has been dealing with injuries, it's been tough sledding for the Jaguars. Their air attack has loosened things up in recent weeks specifically with the exploits of the now injured Cecil Shorts (concussion) and more recently first receiver picked in 2012, Justin Blackmon.
As a gameplan for the Jets, the weak line play will be to the Jets defense's favor. Knowing that the Jets should be able to provide some pressure up front and then force Henne to make some plays into the Jets solid secondary. The Jets might place Cromartie on Blackmon to prevent the deep pass, something Henne and Blackmon have been getting in sync on recently and then Wilson would take whoever plays the second receiver spot, be it Shorts, Shipley or Kevin Eliott. Still, the Jets are going to have to keep an eye on Marcedes Lewis, whose rise seemed to start in his 2009 matchup against the Jets as he's one of the leagues better pass-catching Tight Ends. Lewis only has four touchdowns on the year, but it's the more than 50 targets and almost 400 yards that's more the concern for me. He's a great possession receiver for a faltering Jags offense and can get some first downs for the team at times when the Jaguars need them.
Oh hey, just for kicks, go to the F.O. quarterback ranking page. Reminder these rankings come from all objective data – regressional statistics that standardize playing against good and bad teams. With 32 teams in the league, you'll notice Henne is hovering at replacement level (30th) while Gabbert was playing below replacement level (37th). Oh and where's Sanchez stacking up? Just above Gabbert at 36th … hmmm …
Pass Defense: 22.7% (27th)
Rush Defense: 3.9% (26th)
Defensive Adjusted Line Yards: 4.54 Yards (32nd)
Defensive Adj. Sack Rate: 3.8% (32nd)
Analysis: The 28th best, the 27th best, the 15th best, then the 26th best. That's the slate of defenses that remains to the Jets as they head into their game this weekend against the Jags. With four games remaining and serious questions about what the Jets will attempt to do this offseason, what better showcase for a franchise quarterback than against a set of teams such as these?
Somehow, and somewhat remarkably the Jets offensive run blocking has gotten really good in recent weeks, shooting up to the 5th overall run blocking unit in the league at this point in time. Part has been the group's cohesion, part has been the Jets commitment to the run, and part has been that the running backs are starting to play with some life, most notably Bilal Powell who seems to be pushing Shonn Greene for carries at this point. The Jets offensive line and running backs should have no trouble in attacking and besting this run defense and for that reason I know the Jets offense is going to have a good outing. The Jets will likely play a run-heavy attack against the Jaguars and throw when they need to – essentially dialing back Mark Sanchez to get him comfortable and confident in running this offense again.
Mark Sanchez should have all the time he needs in throwing the ball. No team is worse at rushing the quarterback than the Jaguars. Jeff Cumberland (or if Keller plays) should have a harder time against this unit, but Kerley and Stephen Hill might trade some big catches against this team as they struggle with consistency and health in this secondary.
Special Teams: -0.6% (21st)
Analysis: This unit is just a hair worse than the Jets unit has been playing at this season, so maybe that's some form of consolation. The Jags are great at field goals, but suffer dreadfully on kickoff coverage and in their punt return game. The Jets are going to have to do their best to gain as many yards on the Jags as possible in those two facets of special teams to make up for their deficiencies in their own field goal and punt coverage units.

MORRISTOWN — This year's Fourth of July parade is taking on special significance for the members of the Morristown Volunteer Fire Department and Ambulance Squad.
The event was renamed in honor of longtime fellow firefighter and parade Chairman Stephen A. "Steve" Spilman.
Mr. Spilman died in September at the age of 64.
Fellow firefighters said Mr. Spilman was a "fixture" of the department's annual parade.
"He was a big part of the whole community," Fire Chief Kevin J. Crosby said Wednesday. "Every time you saw him he would always have a smile on his face. If he wasn't working on the parade, he would work at Bingo on Thursday nights."
Mr. Spilman served as the Fourth of July Parade chairman for over 35 years. Mr. Spilman received his 40 years of service award in January 2013. He served as Bingo captain for over 40 years.
He was named Morristown firefighter of the year in 1982 and 1997 and also was the recipient of the Morristown Fire Department Chiefs Award in 1998.
Christopher J. Sherwin served alongside Mr. Spilman as co-chair of the event for over five years.
"I think he enjoyed interacting with the people at the parade the most," Mr. Sherwin said. "The parade has always brought people from the area back for the summer. He would get to visit with people he hadn't seen in years. He was very outgoing and a comedian. He did a lot for his community and then some."
The parade will be held Friday at 10 a.m. on Main Street.
Firefighters will be collecting donations on the street to offset the cost of the parade.
At dusk tonight, the town's annual fireworks display will be shot off behind the fire station.
As the department's major annual fundraiser, money raised will be used to purchase fire and rescue equipment.
"Without these organizations and everyone's donations towards the fireworks, the fire department would not be able to shoot these fireworks off every year," Mr. Crosby said. "We thank these people for helping us keep the fireworks alive and letting the public enjoy a great show."
After the parade, there will be a chicken barbecue, children's games, a fire department concession stand serving hamburgers, hot dogs, sausage, French fries, cotton candy, snow cones, bread dough and ice-cold beverages.
The will be an antique tractor pull, games of chance and a 50/50 raffle.
The fireworks are sponsored by the following businesses and organizations: the village and town of Morristown, the Morristown Fire Department Auxiliary, Morristown Fuel & Supply, Riverview Mechanicals, Mike Ditta, Citizens Telephone Company, Phillips Insurance Company, Witherhead Professional Services, IslandView Funeral Services, Jreck Subs, Frank Crosby Farms, Mike Faucher Farms, Valley Maple Construction, North Country Contractors, Bishop Construction, Shear Image, St. Lawrence River Reality LLC., St. Lawrence Federal Credit Union, Pepsi-Cola Ogdensburg Bottlers, Joe Meyer Construction, Northeast Mechanicals, Ferguson Waterworks, Stout's Ready Mix, Langbrook Clubhouse and Langbrook Golf Course.
