LYNDON–Despite being no-hit on Wednesday afternoon, the North Country Falcons took a 1-0 lead into the bottom of the seventh before the Lyndon Institute Vikings rallied to force extra innings, where they came away with the 2-1 win.
"The issue for us tonight was that we have not hit live pitching yet this year," said NCU coach Brian Bonvechio.
And he is not exaggerating either.
The Falcons have only seen pitches from Bonvechio and assistant coach Mike LaCourse, which makes it mighty difficult for players to be ready come Opening Day.
If the bats were not there, the defense and pitching were.
Twice in the game, in both the fourth and the fifth innings, North Country managed to wiggle out of bases-loaded jams.
In the fourth, crafty southpaw Joel Lemarche was able, with a little help from his D, to get out of the mess.
Shane Goodell, who came on to pitch in the fifth after starting in right field, replicated Lemarche's efforts to keep the home team at bay.
Meanwhile, the Falcons would score when Bryce Carter walked, stole second, and crossed the plate after the LI short-stop threw the ball away.
Lyndon tied the game on a fielder's choice in the seventh with two outs, then won the game on a two-out single in the eighth.
LI's starting pitcher David Guyer went seven innings and earned a no-decision.
Things went a little better for the JV boys, as they picked up an 11-1 win at home.
As this paper went to press, the Falcons (0-1) were squaring off with Vergennes at home.
They are slated to play again on Saturday morning Burlington at 11:00.

CHAUMONT The village government is cutting back on general spending to keep its tax rate steady in the 2013-14 fiscal year.
Chaumonts general spending will decrease by 5.6 percent to $310,175 from $328,600 this fiscal year.
The tax levy, or the amount to be raised through property taxes, will go up 6.4 percent to $120,250 from $113,000 this year but the tax rate will remain the same at $9.52 per $1,000 of assessed value, due to a slight bump in Chaumonts tax base.
The levy increase is still under the state-mandated tax cap. Under the villages tax cap calculations, Chaumont could have raised the levy by up to 7.8 percent in the 2013-14 fiscal year without requiring a board resolution to override it.
Chaumonts tax base, or the total assessed value of all taxable property in the village, is estimated to be $12.6 million, up from roughly $11.8 million this year.
Chaumont will not take any money out of its unappropriated general fund reserve to balance its 2013-14 budget. The village didnt use any of its rainy day funds in the 2012-13 fiscal year either.
The total budget, including water and sewer district funds, will be $646,850 up 0.8 percent from $641,520 this fiscal year.
Chaumont is expecting $11,600 more in sales tax revenue next year.
Salaries for the mayor and village trustees will remain $5,000 and $1,750, respectively.

You should be able to lock summon the alt there, there's level 1s with "The Explorer". But I'm not sure if a low level can use the BMAH
I don't believe there's any reason you can't do this.
My Level 80 Priest is kicking it in Halfhill, so he can go make Imperial Silk daily, so I see no reason why not.
Games are not necessarily "easier" today. You are just a better player.
It takes more now to impress many gamers than it did 2-5 years ago, because so much has already been seen and done.
Many players expect to be wow'd with every release of a beloved franchise.
These are generally NOT the fault of the developers, but the fault of many players over-hyping and/or setting expectations too high.
Cheers. Didn't want to waste people's time if summon didn't work. I thought you couldn't get to Panda land without doing a special quest.
Another way is to find a friendly mage and have them summon you to shrine and then have some with a two person flying mount fly you there, I have a friend that made a lvl 1 alt just to have it parked in front of the bmah.
Aren't the items on the BMAH BoP, and thus, will be bound to your alt if you bid on them?
I don't think the bmah t3 is class restricted.
I saw a lvl1 in the BMAH a few nights ago when I was bidding on Drake of South Wind. (went for 95.5k... no, I didn't win)
Must resist slavery joke!!!!! On topic, yes.
It's like crossing an intersection. There's shit going on all over the place and you don't panic and act like an idiot then do you?

LEE, Maine (NEWS CENTER)-- First Wind is hoping for a second chance at developing a wind farm near Lee. The company has resubmitted an application to place sixteen turbines on top of Bowers Mountain. First Wind retracted the original proposal in 2011 after facing tough opposition.
Vice President of Development for First Wind Matt Kearns said, "What we really focused on with this application is making a smaller, better project that's responsive to some of the issues that were raised by the folks."
Tuesday the Maine Department of Environmental Protection began a two-day public hearing on the project. Members and supporters of First Wind will submit the new proposal and those opposing the wind farm will have the opportunity to ask questions and express concerns.
According to Kearns, the new plan is based on the feedback and concerns voiced in 2011 and will not impact the region's scenery. The current proposal requests the building of sixteen turbine wind farm rather than the original twenty-seven.
Some opponents, like Gary Campbell, remain against the project.
Campbell said, "It's 16 turbines this time, but they've replaced the turbines with taller models and they're placing them on taller land."
Campbell is worried the wind farm could hurt the region's tourism, a industry the area relies heavily on.
"If we have 15% of the tourists decide not to come because there are now turbines on the horizon on what used to be a wilderness type area. A 20% decline in business, a 15% decline in business that's all it takes to go under," said Campbell.
First Wind stands by the new plan. According to Kearns, it would help boost the state's economy.
"We are able to bring new development, new economic opportunities, new jobs, maintain jobs for maine businesses who do this work in this sector. It's really important," said Kearns.
Members of the public will be able to ask questions and offer their concerns Tuesday evening at Lee Academy. The public forum will continue into Wednesday.
It will be up to the Department of Environmental Protection to determine if the project is fit to be built this time around.

PORTLAND, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Even though days are still getting shorter, sunsets are getting later. The optimists among us believe that the long inexorable march toward spring has begun.
A number of factors contribute to the phenomenon says Paul Howell who is studying for his PhD in Astrophysics at Boston University. Among those are earth's slightly elliptical orbit and the fact that the earth doesn't revolve in exactly twenty-four hours.
"When our hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, the days are longer. If you leave you oven on for a longer period of time, things get hotter and hotter," Howell told News Center. "The sun is also higher up in the sky, so it beats down on the ground more directly and that gives more energy to the earth. We have more heating and the heating is more effective."
Another fact is that the earth is orbiting the sun as it revolves. It needs to make slightly more than one revolution to exactly face the sun once again because it has moved along its orbital track. This change of location means sunrise and sunset move back by just a few seconds. Since the difference in the length of day is so minimum, it seems that the sun is rising and setting later in the day.
The winter solstice is Thursday morning at 12:30 A. M. EST. Thursday will be two seconds longer than Wednesday. Friday will be four seconds longer than Thursday. Saturday will be nine seconds longer than Friday. By the spring solstice, the days are increasing in length by three minutes.
In Maine, there is significant disparity in sunset, depending on where you are. In Portland, the sun is setting at 4:07 P. M. In Presque Isle it is setting at 3:46 P. M. Portland's days are currently eight hours and fifty-five minutes. Presque Isle's are eight hours and thirty-three minutes.
In the summer, it is just the opposite. On June 21, the sun will rise in Portland at 4:59 A. M. and set at 8:26 P. M. In Presque Isle, the sun will rise at 4:38 A. M. and set at 8:30 P. M. That means Portland's longest day is fifteen hours and twenty-seven minutes in length and Presque Isle's is fifteen hours and fifty two minutes in length.

Kinra, Aseem (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The spatial scope of organisations has recently been reemphasised in the context of supply chains and supply chain management. This scope is usually accompanied by uncertainty to organisations, especially for the extended supply chain with geographically dispersed operations and activities, thus posing environmental complexity in the form of risks and costs that organisations need to contend with. The main purpose of this dissertation is to create a deep understanding of this environmental complexity facing the extended supply chain, and the main research objective is to develop a construct, consisting of factors and measures, that can aid in describing its state in the context of logistics. Overall, the dissertation assumes an international business (IB) standpoint in undertaking this task whereby it is argued that countries and borders matter, and that differences between country environments lead to environmental complexity in the geographically dispersed supply chain. Country-oriented constraints may then exist at macro-economic level, or the micro-/meso- e.g. firm, network and industry levels of the business environment. In this dissertation, supply chain (logistics) environmental complexity is developed and operationalised in terms of the range and heterogeneity of country-oriented macro- logistics factors that need to be considered in extended, cross-border, or global supply chain (logistics) operations. The remainder of this dissertation is thereafter dedicated to finding these factors, and their respective information measures, by the application of a decision-making approach. A decision factor is one that influences the decision on selection with regards to environmental complexity, and an information measure is a unit of measurement that aids decision-making by providing some information on the factor. The findings of this dissertation are based upon multiple literature reviews, content analyses and expert opinions, and suggest the importance of 17 such decision factors and 187 different types of information measures, which describe the state of environmental complexity in extended, cross-border, or global supply chain operations. The study is particularly relevant from the perspective of strategy and design issues in global supply chain management, international operations management and international business, and more specifically for environmental scanning and decision-making applications such as site location and transport mode selection. By applying the results of this dissertation decision-makers may, for example, get a preliminary idea of the environmental complexity surrounding their extended supply chains.

Strategies for dealing with organizational paradoxesMaalouf, Malek (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Within a dynamic and changing world business order, the management of tensions and paradoxes affect the long term adaptability of the organization. The extant literature recommends that, by adopting the paradoxical perspective through the alternation of two opposing strategies for dealing with paradoxes – acceptance and resolution - companies are more likely to achieve transformation and change. As for lean sustainability, it is argued that the adoption of the paradoxical perspective can facilitate the interactions between lean and the physical, social and psychological structures of the company, which creates the necessary energy for change within the social system that facilitates second order learning and the shift in the mental models of the individuals involved in the lean initiative. Through the identification of the paradoxes emerging during lean implementation in three case companies and mapping the strategies used for dealing with these paradoxes, this thesis contributes to lean sustainability - theory and practice - in two ways. First, this study claims that, by adopting the paradoxical perspective, companies are more likely to succeed in sustaining lean. The main argument is that, in addition to the resolution of the paradoxes which is the main focus of the rational approach, the paradoxical perspective takes into consideration the acceptance of the paradoxical tensions which entails that paradox is also seen as an opportunity for learning and for the generation of creative insights. Second, this study concludes that the process of alternation between the acceptance and resolution of lean paradoxes is more likely to be effective if it is intermediated by the reframing of the link between the two opposing poles of the paradox. Thus, reframing becomes an indicator for shifting between acceptance and resolution strategies. It is implicit in this argument that if managers move from acceptance strategy to a resolution strategy without achieving the reframing of the relation between the two opposing poles of the paradox, then attempts for sustaining lean will be restricted.

Towards a Critically Performative Foundation for InquiryHartmann, Rasmus Koss (Frederiksberg, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The thesis sets out to study regulatory innovation inside government from the perspective of user innovation and to do so in a way that is critically performative. The empirical subject matter is 'laboratories' (Da. Styringslaboratorier): a form of innovation process focused on developing 'regulatory innovations' (i.e. administrative innovations used for purposes of regulating public sector organizations) in collaboration between regulators and users. This particular form of innovation process has been the subject of considerable debate in Denmark and been suggested as a way forward in public sector modernization after New Public Management. It is, however, also an underspecified phenomenon: while it is attributed some potential, it is unclear what this potential is and what it is about laboratories that make this potential plausible. We have only vague ideas about what gets done when people do laboratories. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8978

POTSDAM The village board voted 3-1 Monday to tighten the definition of fraternities and sororities, after a monthslong discussion on how to curb bad behavior by Greek organizations.
The new definition states that a fraternity or sorority is an organization of students recognized by either SUNY Potsdam or Clarkson University. Under the old law, they were defined as groups recognized by either the local colleges or a national body.
This made it tough for the village to evict unruly students who owned group homes in Potsdam and were unrecognized by the colleges.
Trustee Stephen J. Warr voted against the change, saying he wanted to wait until fall to get more feedback from the now absent students.
Trustee Ronald Tischler was not at the meeting.

This audio edition is the first ever unabridged recording of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
Download the accompanying reference guide.
© and (P)2004 FranklinCovey
"The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is by now one of the best-selling books of all time." (Fortune)
"A true guide for life"
This is one of my top ten books of all time for lifelong contemplation.
Key themes of Proactivity; Setting and following priorities; Re-scripting according to principles; Win-Win; Listening to understand others; Synergy; and Renewal are fundamental, timeless and universal.
Dr. Covey's approach is unequalled in breadth and depth, while being entirely accessible to any human being. Everything he writes complements everything I've learned in life, while laboring to uproot any weeds that have grown in my internal garden. Having Dr. Covey read the material to me personally... it's the icing on the cake!
I read "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" when it first appeared decades ago; read it a second time five years later; and now, thanks to Audible, I've begun a profound study and contemplation of the material, that would have otherwise been too tedious to handle, given my other time commitments, as well as the fact that, since my work is about 90% in front of the computer, my eyes tire quickly before printed material in my non-work time.
I organize my listening in two ways: listening in the logical, step by step, chapter by chapter method on the one hand, imagining myself attending a 7 Habits seminar or class; and listening for hours at a time as I lie down to rest/relax/sleep on the other. The result is I end up hearing the material over and over, provoking thoughts and contemplations about where I am in life, where I want to go, and what I need to do to get there. I expect the process to last about six months. My goal from the reading: A complete paradigm re-adjustment for life.
This book has my highest recommendation for any person anywhere.
"Great book bad audio"
The material in the book is great and I highly recommend it. This audio version, however, is very difficult to listen to because the author speaks so slowly and pauses so often. I had the feeling that I could have listened to the unabridged version in half the time if read by another narrator. I found myself zoning while listening to the book, rewinding it so I could listen to it again, and by the time I got to the part I had missed, I was zoning again.
My 3 star rating is based on the audio itself, not the content. I highly recommend the book itself, and I may even buy the abridged version so I can refresh myself on the material.
"Excellent Insights"
This book provides excellent insights into dealing with others through
introspection. It touches on Victor Frankel and others who provide examples of how to turn adversity into assets. This book is not a traditional self help book, but a companion to guide the listener into ones self.
"The real deal..."
Sadly this book is contrarian to a lot of what goes on in our society. Thus I constantly have to "try" to practice these principles. But the trying is worth it. I have used this book as a standard for turning around the cultures of two manufacturing plants after I was hired from the outside. Those turn-arounds were only accomplished because the principles in this book work and because, if patiently applied, they give a management team a common vocabularly for they way they treat each other and their associates. My only function was to act as catalyst and insist that these principles be practiced. After a couple of years, in both cases the stress levels were way down, the morale was way up, and the performance was beyond anything known before and certainly beyond expectation. In my current assisgnment we're saving over $3M per year (450 people) and the roots of that accomplishment are in this book. It's a book to listen to, to absorb, and to go back to over and over again. An annual tuneup by listening to this program, is typical of those who REALLY try to adopt the 7 Habits (and model them). It's tough to be a perfect practitioner. One can only read and try...
"Buy the Book"
I would advise to buy the book...this version was hard to follow and not very good. I was disinterested and bored fast...although the paper version is excellent the audio version gets a low rating.
"7 Habits"
Steven Covey's message is as valid now as it was when the book was first published and listening to it on audiobook is great way to refresh those lessons we thought we wouldn't forget after reading it so long ago. My only critque of the audiobook is that Covey mispronouces words so often that it causes one to wonder why he would narrate his own book. I recommend the audiobook if you have read the book before and are willing to listen to his original pronunciation.
"Too much fluff"
Generally a good book, but contains too much fluff. Could have been a lot more leaner, while still providing the same values. A great book to hear though.
"Change your Life"
If you really want to change your life for the better, read this book. I would suggest not listening to this in the car, but in the quiet of your home and make notes as you do. You will truly change the way you go through life and the way you understand other people.
"One of the all-time classics"
Dr Covey is a man of character and demonstrates that in his book. I read this book several years ago and loaned it to someone but never got it back. I've been traveling a lot lately and decided to download this to listen to while traveling and really enjoyed the refresher. Key points that really hit home around Win-Win or Walk Away resonated with me again and the key points to business and personal relationships really renewed my perspectives.
I would have preferred this book not be so long, 11 hours is a bit much and possibly could have been condensed but I'd be afraid it would lose its impact. Regardless, great book but misses 5 stars for me for length.
"Most insightful book"
It is a wonderful feeling to come across a book where you feel that you really got your money's worth and that you really are learning something new and exciting that would greatly improve the way you think and live. Dr. Covey really got me thinking about so many things that I could really improve on and just what he said about not "getting in the thick of thin things" alone is worth every penny. I want to be a better husband and a better father to my children and strongly believe following the principals he identified will greatly help me achieve that.
"The message is simple"
Like others on here I initially found the voice monotone and dry with none of the usual punch and uplift found in other personal improvement readings. But on reflection I think that this bland style works better in the long run. It allows you to listen, really listen to what he is saying rather than be short term uplifted. A long book taken at what seems a leisurely pace but I do not think it could have been shortened and still get the message across. This is a casserole not a microwave meal.
"Highly recommended."
I'd known about this book for a long time and it was always on my list of books to read (listen to). I found the 7 habits fascinating. The age of the book does come across and it is a little preachy but Stephen Covey's research, conclusions and insights are staggering in their depth. Although you come away feeling that a lot of what he says is common sense, the vast majority of people, including myself, would never think in those terms. Stephen unravels what it is to be human and how to make the most of that gift. I can't believe anyone listening could fail to benefit hugely from the experience.
"7 Habits, constructive change not quick-fix"
I took the time to listen to the unabridged version. Audible could do with reviewing the encoding but other than that the book was excellent.
This book is required reading for managers in the 21st century as is the 8th habit. This was an easy listen (even the unabridged version) and Stephen Covey is a great narrator. I'd recommend this book to all.
"good stuff"
i thought this was interesting and useful book. The behaviours (habits) make alot of sense
It is a tad preachy at the end. If your in a toss up between this and how to win friends and influence people i think the later is better
"Get over the hangup - does NOT push religion"
There are a few reviewers who have written off the book because the author happens to merely mention - in one sentence in the prologue - that he is a Christian. Surely the problem is no more than if he had mentioned being an atheist? - Anyway it is irrelevant to the content of the book and has no bearing on the concept, which is well researched and solid. The author has presented to boards of directors of major international companies and organisations and they wouldn't buy into crap and this is in no way wishy-washy or spiritual, the principles are well set out and argued.
I let the voice - which some may find jarring - pass over me and listened to the content which was what I bought it for after all.
Very insightful and well organised.
As an open minded individual - as far as one may be - why are so many people so touchy as to junk an entire book that is well reviewed by many business leaders and thinkers (and others) simply because an author mentions that he/she has a belief system? Very odd methinks...perhaps there may be something in it. Must look deeper myself perhaps - shall look in the relevant Audible category for a scholarly work without a strong agenda in either direction methinks! - Any suggestions anyone?
"Helped me focus on who I am"
brilliant book.Layed out principles that are common for all people and essential for success. it helped me to re-focus on what is important for me in life and how to reprioritise my life around my principals.
A must listen for anyone and everyone
"Must Read"
If you have not yet read this book then you really should. It has been very influential and contains a wealth of ideas. If you only read one personal development book it should be this one. The audio book is well read by the author and is easy to follow and quite entertaining.
"Life changing"
You can now have your cake and eat it. Having read a lot of management books, this is the one that will change your outlook on family and work. You will learn over time to do things differently and take control of those aspects of your life that at the moment might be controlling you.
The book is very readable and listening to Stephen Covey is even better.
"A great listen"
A very empowering book with lots of easy to do, useful ideas for leading a happier, more fulfilling life. Well worth a listen.
"7 Habits of Highly Effective People"
In the first half hour I was surprised and disappointed the author matched ideal human principles to those of god, and described using faith and prayer to help him and his wife understand and maintain those principles.
I wanted sensible advice, not a lesson in spirituality. This discredited the author as a serious teacher for me.
I didn't see any warning of this in the synopsis, nor on wikipedia. This title should also be included in the spiritual and religion sections. Beware.

Many Saybrook students receive financial aid for their tuition. How can we help you?
The four steps to getting financial aid:
Applying for Financial Aid is surprisingly easy, and we're here to help. Here's all you have to do:
1. Fill Out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid
If you are interested in applying for financial aid you must complete and submit a Free Application of Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to apply for federal student aid and most state and college aid. FAFSA on the Web is the quickest and easiest method of applying. You can submit an electronic application via the internet at fafsa.ed.gov. Be sure to enter the Saybrook University's School code: G21206. Renew your FAFSA once a year by filing the FAFSA or the Renewal FAFSA. We recommend that you complete your financial aid application no later than 90 days prior to the beginning of the relevant semester of enrollment.
2. The Verification Process (Required Documents)
Once your FAFSA has been submitted to the processor, you the student will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR). Read the SAR carefully for messages regarding your application status and database matches to identify any outstanding requirements. Students may also receive requests for documentation directly from the Saybrook University Financial Aid Office via email. Please respond to our request promptly. A delay in resolution of a federal edit will delay the processing of your financial aid.
3. Receive Your Award Letter
Your award will be emailed to you once you have been accepted into a degree program at Saybrook University and we have a valid FAFSA output document on file and if required any other requested documents from the financial aid office. Please note that the award letter spells out the cost of attendance which is based on the program of study you are in and the types of financial aid/amounts that you have been awarded. You will also receive the "Understanding your Award Letter Brochure" to assist you with understanding the award as well as instructions on how you apply for the loans or any other aid that you have been awarded.
4. Maintain Your Eligibility
All students must maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress to continue to receive financial aid. It is important to maintain enrollment level of at least half-time status each semester in order to receive most forms of most financial aid, as well as to maintain loan deferment. Remember that students who are enrolled in less than half-time are not eligible to receive loan funds. Eligibility for financial aid, including any funds from federal, statue, or university aid programs are required to make measurable progress towards your degree in order to retain eligibility for federal/university aid programs. Refer to the SAP information in the school catalog for more details.
Have questions? Email email@example.com or call 888.253.5100, option 1.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. A third straight shutout loss has left the Clarkson University mens hockey team just one defeat away from seeing its season end.
Brown, the No. 7 seed, blanked the No. 10 Golden Knights 3-0 on Friday in the opening game of a best-of-three ECAC Hockey first-round series at the Meehan Auditorium. The teams meet at 7 tonight in game two and if a third game is needed it will start at 7 p.m. on Sunday.
Clarkson has not scored for three straight games and extended its scoreless streak to a school record 201 minutes, 29 seconds. Clarkson last scored against Harvard, a 6-2 loss on Feb 23.
Its a situation where you start pressing and you dont feel as much poise as you would normally, Clarkson coach Casey Jones said of the scoring slump. Its frustrating for it to happen at this time.
Brown (12-12-6 overall) struck first Friday with a power-play goal from Mark Naclerio at 15 minutes, 45 seconds of the first period.
I thought we had opportunities tonight, Jones said. Well watch some video and see if there is an opportunity (to generate more offense) tomorrow.
The game remained 1-0 until Matt Lorito scored on a shot that went between the legs of Clarkson goalie Greg Lewis at 6:25 of the third period.
Clarkson pulled Lewis for an extra attacker late in the third period but the Bears sealed the win with an empty-net goal from Joey de Concilys at 19:45.
The Golden Knights were hindered on offense by the loss of leading scorer Allan McPherson, who was injured late against Union in the regular-season finale last Saturday.
McPherson tried to practice during the week but is sitting out this weekends series.
Brown goalie Anthony Borelli finished with 31 saves for the shutout.
The bottom line was we didnt score a goal tonight, Jones said. We had plenty of opportunities and we needed to get one. It will be important for us (today) to keep putting pucks on net. We need one to go in so the floodgates can open for us.
Ambrose ECACs top rookie
Clarkson defenseman Erin Ambrose was named the womens ECAC Hockey Rookie of the Year and junior Erica Howe was named the womens ECAC Hockey Goaltender of the Year Friday night at the leagues annual awards banquet in Ithaca.
Ambrose played in 32 games for Clarkson and scored four goals with 29 assists.
Howe went 18-4 in conference play with a 1.23 goals-against average and a.947 save percentage for Clarkson.
Joining Howe on the all-ECAC Hockey first team was SLU defenseman Amanda Boulier.
Ambrose and Clarksons Jamie Lee Rattray (a forward) made the second team along with SLUs Kelly Sabatine.
Clarksons Carly Mercer made the third team. SLU forard Abbey McRae joined Ambrose on the all-rookie team.

I've had a crush on Billy Idol since I was a wee thing, even once screaming loudly in public when I saw him ordering a chai latte at a Starbucks. No matter what his age, Billy Idol has me bored with "Dancing With Myself." I'd rather have the hunky, punky Idol as a dance partner.

CNNGo TV in Harbin: China's ice city
This month's CNNGo show is one of extreme experiences as we endure temperatures of minus 20 degrees Celsius in the northern Chinese city of Harbin.
Among the highlights: the freezing but amazing ice festival, custard popsicles and steaming hot dinners over coal stoves. Here are five of the locations we visited:
Harbin Ice & Snow World
At 148 acres, this is the world's largest theme park of its kind. Each winter, about 2,000 ice castles, ice palaces and giant ice slides are built in just 14 days. The thick, clear ice is taken from the local Songhua River and illuminated with colorful LED lights.
Check out a gallery of the incedible displays here: China's coolest festival. It runs till February 25.

Stalin Park
Built in 1953, and named after the Russian dictator, this 1,750-meter-long park is located along the southern bank of the Songhua River.
During winter, the park extends onto the frozen river with a variety of winter sports and activities, including ice skating, ice sliding and ice sailing.

Dining takes place around communal tables built over coal stoves used to keep the food and brick settees hot during the meal.
Nangang District, 18 Hongxiang Road
Modern Ice Pop
Despite winter temperatures of minus 20 C or below, people queue up for ice pops outside the Modern Cold Drinks on Central Avenue on Central Avenue all year round.
The mysteriously popular ice cream comes in only two flavors, custard and chocolate.
Ice Palace Restaurant
In the back garden of the Harbin Shangri-la, the hotel builds its seasonal hotpot restaurant every winter. Made of ice, it's skillfully decorated to reflect the rich history of Dongbei's (northeast China's) various ethnic groups.

In a story in the Washington Post, Tom Siestema writes that Jeff Halpern, along with a childhood friend and business partner, are opening up a carryout restaurant called Astro Doughnuts and Fried Chicken in downtown Washington.
They hope to open the restaurant by the Presidential Inauguration in January.
The story says that Halpern and his friend Elliot Spaisman have loved donuts since they were kids and would follow hockey practices with boxes of donuts from Montgomery Donuts.
The donuts will be made in many flavors including, Creme brulee, passion fruit, maple-bacon and carrot cake.
The fried chicken will be served in one of three ways, buttermilk, siracha glaze or a dry rub of spices.

Many people approaching retirement express a desire to age in place, living in their current home or community until it is no longer physically possible.
To do that, however, it's best to budget the dream into your financial plan. By doing some preparation, you have a greater likelihood of being able to stay where you are, or moving on your own terms — not because you're forced financially to make a change, said Roger Roemmich, chief investment officer of ROKA Wealth Strategists and author of the book "Don't Eat Dog Food When You're Old."
Because so many people want to stay put during retirement, it's becoming more common for financial planners to put extra focus on the unique costs involved with aging in place when formulating their clients' financial plans, said Janice Cackowski, a financial planner with Strategic Wealth Partners in Independence, Ohio. "We're trying to build in a basic cost into the financial plan… so that they do have the ability to update their house or build a ramp," she said.
Here are some tips to consider if you want to spend retirement in your home.
Ensure cash flow
An important start to an aging-in-place plan is making sure you'll have a monthly cash flow that will exceed your expenses, Roemmich said. This is best done before retirement begins.
Otherwise, you could discover years after retiring you have insufficient funds to stay in your home, covering necessary upgrades, taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance, and possibly a mortgage — as well as other necessary and discretionary costs, from visiting grandchildren to dining out.
A Father's Day gift-giving guide
With Father's Day coming up, WSJ's Meenal Mistry shows Lunch Break's Tanya Rivero some great gift ideas for dad.
"I don't like to see people who have made the decision to retire too early or retire completely [at an early age]," Roemmich said. "A lot of times, it's the difference that allows them the age in place."
Also, defer taking Social Security as long as you can, to get the most out of your entitlements, said Charles Bennett Sachs, principal and wealth manager of Private Wealth Counsel in Miami, Fla. By not taking Social Security payments until you're eligible for the full benefit, you guarantee higher cash flow in the future. "Anything that allows you higher income down the road is important," he said.
For some, reverse mortgages are a good option for increasing cash flow, Sachs added.
Lock up health care
People tend to underestimate medical costs in retirement, figuring that Medicare coverage will suffice, Roemmich said. They can end up with large, unexpected bills if they don't plan for health-care costs in retirement. Those costs can crush your finances, making it less likely that you can maintain your current residence at the same time.
That's saying nothing of the long-term care that many Americans will end up needing, given longer life expectancies. "More people will be living into their 90s and beyond," Roemmich said.
Living longer increases the chances of needing long-term care, whether you need an in-home caretaker or eventually require a move to a facility that can provide more assistance.
Some may opt to purchase long-term care insurance, though policies can be somewhat expensive, Cackowski said. Others choose instead to invest money specifically for long-term care, should they end up needing it, she said. Either way, it's important to have a plan.

Messing around.
http://www.twitch.tv/smitegame/b/488211132 the Bart stream of it, if you're impatient. I forgot to post it up earlier ;( (you're gonna want to skip in a good 40 minutes to get to Vulcan, further for Chaac)
Vulcan mage + nuke makes me a bit worried for Arena's meta, it's gonna be so good. Aegis will counter it hard, though.
Chaac looks interesting, when I first read his abilities he seemed like a huge Thor ripoff, but aftering seeing him play not so much. His axe throw and tele is more of a wombo combo of hammer+pounce lol.
»Games & IGN«Wurm Online » LeviathanFFTA2»Last updated May 31 2010«
so tried out new Vulcan today. he feels better, but holy **** something needs to be done about how his turret. did a mirror match against an enemy Vulcan who didn't go turret, and he trashed my measly turret with a single bomb + AA. had to stop leveling turret at lvl 2 just to hold lane. his ult is stupid good now if you can aim it and time it right. once fired it off at max range while 3 enemies were bunched around a tower at 2/3rds health while a Thor was there. two died and one was at critical.
currently feel like gem of isolation and polynomicon are pretty good items on him. gem for his turret and to help disengage with his backblast, and his bomb is on a short CD, so poly helps a lot.
Messing around.
I went back to try it and after 1 game.. time to uninstall.
Community is corrupt.
Players are TERRIBLE. Absolutely disgusting terrible.
SO MANY afkers and leavers...
Vulcs new passive is uh...not so great to say the least.
He might as well just not have turrets anymore. They were never hard to kill in the first place but now they just melt if they get looked at wrong. They need to let him get his donger on and have more than 1 out at a time.

Opponents of a proposed 14-story, liquid propane gas storage tank in Searsport are hoping former Gov. John Baldacci will influence members of the local planning board to turn against the project. Contrary to some reports making the rounds in the community, Baldacci says he never told the Denver-based DCP Midstream energy company that he supported their project. In fact, Baldacci is expressing some reservations about the plan, and is urging community leaders to place a priority on public safety, as they consider the company's proposal. A.J. Higgins has more.
Former Gov. John Baldacci remembers well the circumstances six years ago that prompted him to contact DCP Midstream. Maine's liquid propane supplies were running low. It was an usually cold winter. A Canadian Rail strike was interrupting LP supplies to New England, and a tanker that was supposed to be delivering the fuel to Maine had been delayed.
It was what the governor called a perfect storm of events that spelled disaster for Maine homeowners who relied on LP gas for their heating needs. But Baldacci says he never endorsed DCP's eventual plans to build an LP storage tank the size of the Statue of Liberty. And he told the Searsport Planning Board as much in a recent letter.
"I had been approached by a small group from the area who came to me and said that testimonies were being given to say that I was supporting this project, and that my name and the office were being used in endorsing this project and I felt that I needed to make sure that the local planning board knew that if those presentations were being made and had me as supporting it that those were not accurate," Baldacci said.
In the letter dated Jan. 29, the former governor says that while he had reached out to DCP to obtain more LP gas for Maine in 2007, no one from that company had ever discussed plans about an LP gas import terminal or storage tank facility. He urges the planning board to keep safety and the public's well-being in mind above all other considerations as they weigh DCP's proposal.
"I felt that we should be moving away from that as a source, and that we should be working towards other types of fuels that were more readily available and more affordable," Baldacci said.
Opponents of the project may have felt they were getting mixed signals from the Baldacci administration after the governor's former transportation commissioner recently penned some newspaper op-ed pieces advocating his support for the DCP plan. David Cole, now a private consultant, says that while DCP is not one of his clients, a Bangor group that favors the storage project is.
He says his views favoring the DCP proposal are based on his belief that the storage capacity would improve Maine's overall mix of energy sources and provide jobs for the area. Cole says it's conceivable someone from DCP might have mentioned plans for a storage tank at some point after 2007, but that a formal presentation was never made to him and he never discussed it with the governor.
"I just remember that after the shortage this proposal emerged and evolved and it wasn't overnight," Cole says. "At that point, the folks within DOT were keeping me posted on what was going on, but I'm not sure it had evolved to the state where the governor was briefed on it."
Steve Hinchman, an attorney representing opponents of the LP gas storage facility, says he's convinced that DCP has provided information to some members of the Searsport community that states the Baldacci administration was on board with the project.
Peter Taber, a Searsport resident opposed to the storage tank, says he's glad that Baldacci, who is weighing a possible Democratic run for the Blaine House next year, has responded.
"We're very much opposed to this," Taber says. "It's affecting property values; they're concerned about safety on the roads in the vicinity of this structure, and also the fact that this is not another tank. It's of humongous size."
The proposed DCP storage tank would cost an estimated $50 million to build and would hold 22.7 million gallons of liquefied propane gas. The issue has divided members of the greater Searsport community, who will meet tonight for what is expected to be a final hearing on the proposal.

Get The Look: Olivia Munn
- 1 of 25
"I always mix a few drops of Josie Maran's Argan Oil ($48) into foundation to keep the skin glowing," makeup artist Shane Paish says. He applied Laura Mercier's Tinted Moisturizer Crème Compact ($45) to Munn's face, then brushed Dior's Skinflash Radiance Booster Pen ($37) under the actress' eyes.
- 2 of 25
Bronzed and contoured skin complemented the simplicity of Munn's Thakoon dress, so Paish dusted Kevyn Aucoin's The Sculpting Powder ($42) along the actress' jawline and under her cheekbones, then reached for Laura Mercier's Bronzing Pressed Powder ($32)."This Laura Mercier powder is the best thing that I have ever used," Paish says. He applied it all over Munn's face, shoulders, and chest.
- 3 of 25
Paish highlighted the top of Munn's cheekbones with Dior's Diorskin Ultra Shimmering Allover Face Powder ($45) followed by Tom Ford's Cheek Color ($56) in Flush.
- 4 of 25
Munn's structured brows are thanks to Dior's Powder Eyebrow Pencil ($29) in Chestnut. "Using a brow pencil a shade lighter than your hair will make your eye pop," Paish says.
- 5 of 25
Creating a smoky eye with copper and brown tones is easy to master at home, says Paish. He layered a mix of hues from Tom Ford's Eye Color Quad ($78) in Golden Mink onto Munn's lid, then dusted the lightest gold shade under her bottom lash line for depth.
- 6 of 25
It took two mascaras to get Munn's perfectly defined lashes: Dior's Diorshow Mascara ($25) for fullness and Givenchy's PhenomenEyes Mascara ($30) to coat the bottom and inner lashes.
- 7 of 25
For a contrast to Munn's dewy skin, Paish used Nars' Velvet Matte Lip Pencil ($25) in Belle De Jour.
- 8 of 25
- 9 of 25
"This style is easiest to get on second-day hair," hairstylist Christian Marc says. Leonor Greyl's Volumizing Styling Mousse ($46) added extra grip to Munn's dry locks before Marc pulled the actress' hair into a ponytail with a bungee elastic.
- 10 of 25
Marc created a cocktail of Rene Furterer's Modeling Matte Paste ($24) and Karite Cream ($26), worked it into the length of Munn's locks, and began twisting her hair into a bun. He added bobby pins as he twisted, leaving the ends sticking out slightly. "This gives the style a little edge," he says.
- 11 of 25
The key to this look is the shine, Marc says. He slicked Leonor Greyl's Eclat Naturel ($46) onto the side sections of Munn's hair, then added a little extra Matte Paste to the ends of her hair. Skip hairspray!
