Happy Holidays From Vancouver
Posted on February 12, 2008Did You Know? Spineshank has fled the warm air of L.A. in favor of Vancouver to finish up the recording of their upcoming release, tentatively titled Self Destructive Pattern...
What else? They should be done tracking by Christmas...
More? Read Tommy's latest update from the studio:
Hey everybody.
This has been an extremely busy 2 weeks. To start things off, we decided to pack up and drive to Garth's studio, just outside of Vancouver, Canada!! It was a last minute decision but it ended up being the right thing to do...the studio is right in the middle of a fucking forest, so there were NO distractions. And I'm not even kidding - we were chopping wood for heat. That should be the next reality show "Spineshank's Little House On The God Damn Prairie."
It paid off because Jonny and Rob were both singing great - we got a month of work done in about 2 weeks. We even finished a few songs that we didn't plan on finishing. We've recorded 16 or 17...I'm not exactly sure on it.
The next step is to listen to the rough mixes over the holidays to make sure that all the songs are as good as they can be, and then get it mixed in January. We are really trying to get things done fast because you guys have been waiting way too long.
I think you will all be happy with it - it has a lot of really cool melodic songs (that are still heavy!!) and it easily has the most brutal and fastest stuff we have ever done. I know every band says that their new record is the best ever, but I really think this is...and if you have any taste, you will agree. j/k.
I want you all to know that the artwork is already being worked on and it promises to be really dark and different. We got started on this early because on our 2 previous records, the artwork is what pushed back the release date. So as of right now we have a release date in May and we're going to do everything in our power to try and keep that date.
Well that is pretty much it for now...we would like to wish everyone Happy Holidays! See you in 2003

NBC decided to pass on Mockingbird Lane after seeing the pilot, but having spent so much money on the pilot, decided to air it anyway. The premise being that by airing it they at least recover some of the millions they spent on the pilot. HitFix's Alan Sepinwall refers to the airings of passed-on pilots as "Busted Pilot Theater" which used to happen more frequently.
Regardless of anyone trying to spin it as a test run, the reasonable conclusion is it was "Busted Pilot Theater" and nothing more. But the preliminary 1.5 adults 18-49 rating for Mockingbird Lane outperformed originals of Blue Bloods and CSI: NY as well as the premiere of Kitchen Nightmares (which it aired directly against) and served as a decent lead-in to Grimm (which was up 27% from last week.).
For me, the reasonable conclusion still is "Busted Pilot Theater" and that its performance last night doesn't mean NBC will be scrambling to figure out how to start the series back up. But if nothing else this will add a log on the fire of "look, people want something different see 'The Walking Dead,' 'American Horror Story' and 'Grimm!'"

The study of the human immune system is critical to longevity. Longevity (aging with health) is directly related to quality of life.
American conventional medicine teaches and understands the anatomy of the immune system, but American doctors do not practice preventive medicine. They practice symptomology, i.e. they "doctor" symptoms after the patient is already sick.
To harmonize with the human immune system, preventive care must be the focus of health. There are two basic ways that this can happen. One is self-taught healthy living, and number two, work only with alternative practitioners whose priority is preventive medicine.
In fact, American doctors disregard alternative medicine as bad science without scientific proof. They discount anything not processed through the medical protocol of tests.
Many tests at very high cost is a protective of the "orthodox medical club." This keeps out alternative people "without medically accepted credentials."
Our immunity varies with individual biochemistry. In other words, it matters who our parents are. It is not a guarantee that if our parents live long, healthy lives that we will, but it puts the odds greatly in our favor.
In our time, we can greatly help add years by supporting our natural immune system with supplemental nutrition and whole natural foods. There is one thing conclusively proven and documented, and it is the fact that reduced calorie intake produces more years for us.
Would you commit to eating a lot less if it helped add a few years to your life? A small, but growing group of extreme dieters believe that by drastically limiting the amount of food they consume they will not only slow the aging process, but avoid heart problems, diabetes and other chronic diseases. So think calorie restriction for both health and longevity.

Russell Rinker believes we all need a little Blue Man in our lives.
A Blue Man is a very gentle character. Hes very playful and fun, patient and has no ego. I think all of us could use that, he said.
This blueprint for benevolence comes from experience. Over the past decade, Mr. Rinker has done several stints as a member of Blue Man Group.
Audiences will be able to enter the curious Blue Man world Thursday through next Sunday when the Blue Man Group tour stops at the Landmark Theatre in Syracuse as part of the Famous Artists Broadway Theater Series.
But what is a Blue Man?
Its kind of hard to explain, Mr. Rinker said earlier this month from Atlanta, where Blue Man Group performed six shows.
Blue Men are always bald and, yes, blue, on stage as a trio. That dates back to the 1980s in New York City and founding members Chris Wink, Phil Stanton and Matt Goldman. Blue Man Group is known for its groundbreaking theatrical shows that combine music, comedy and multimedia elements to produce a dynamic concert.
More than 25 million people worldwide have seen Blue Man Group concerts, according to its website.
Blue Men do not speak or sing. Musical instruments are their playthings, and they are joined by a four-piece rock band.
Its definitely unique, a lot of fun, has great comedy, music, really cool technology and social commentary, Mr. Rinker said of the show. Its kind of a weird science experiment.
Blue Men exude innocence. We refer to it as a hero clown, Mr. Rinker said. He has heroic elements, but doesnt know it.
He added that the Blue Men demonstrate their own characteristics.
As the show evolves, there are certain moments that play into each guy, Mr. Rinker said. One is kind of the scientist, one is the trickster and one is the reluctant leader.
The roles of the Blue Men are rotated among actors at different shows.
That keeps it very fresh, Mr. Rinker said.
All of the music in a Blue Man group concert is original.
Its very primal, very visceral, Mr. Rinker said. You have that kind of beat that has been affecting humans since music was invented. You also have stuff that is more modern, like rock music. Blue Man music has a very distinct sound. We have created our own musical language. When you hear it, you think, Oh, yeah. Thats Blue Men.
The show is appropriate for families, Mr. Rinker said.
Kids love it because they get it, he said. They get the fun and the imagination, the creativity and all that. But adult audience members kind of forget that in their daily lives. We are consumed with stress and work and forget to play, to have imagination and to be silly. We are trying to bring out the inner child in them.
Mr. Rinker, a native of Strasburg, Va., said becoming a Blue Man often involves a long, winding road.
Its kind of a weird way to make a living, so we find people from all sorts of backgrounds, he said. Its such an odd combination of skill sets that we have actors, drummers, clowns and dancers.
Besides the touring show, Blue Man Group has standing shows in New York City, Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas, Berlin and for the Norwegian Cruise Line.
Mr. Rinker has been an actor and musician all his life, beginning at the age of 4 or 5.
Its what I always wanted to do, he said.
He began his Blue Man Group gig in Chicago, where he auditioned after seeing them in concert.
Id never seen anything like it, he said. I just thought it was a great combination of music and acting. I thought Id do it for a year or two if it works out; here I am 10 years later.
This is Mr. Rinkers first touring Blue Man show. He has performed nontouring shows of the act in Las Vegas, Boston, New York and other cities.
He was asked if it is hard to get out of his Blue Man character once he leaves the stage.
It sounds kind of funny, but Im really good at looking at things now, because the Blue Man doesnt speak. He just looks, Mr. Rinker said. And he doesnt just look, but looks deeper and sees things differently.

I have printed from my Gnu/Linux box before (Through to my Gnu/Linux file/print server) but I've actually not needed to print anything for about a year.
Just curious to see how many people here are printing from there *nix boxes... I haven't had the ambition to get my Lexmark Z31 working in RH8.0 yet but I hear that there is a new(er) driver that people have got working with it. Now after doing some research I am thinking about going out and getting an HP DeskJet, they appear to have the best printing support for *nix.
Oh yeah and if you are printing what printer are you using and what printing system are you using (i.e. CUPS, lpr, etc, etc)? If you are not printing could you list what it is that is stopping you from printing from your *nix box?
I have printed from my Gnu/Linux box before (Through to my Gnu/Linux file/print server) but I've actually not needed to print anything for about a year.
I wish I had printing going... of course, I've only spent a few hours on it so far.
Anyone have some tips on printing to a Jet Direct based LaserJet 5?
hey people,
i use linux as a printer server for the wife and i print plenty too (well, i could if i needed to). cups or LPD work quite well.
for a jet direct are ya connected by ethernet or paralell port?
Not even sure what this is even all about but it has info on getting an HP LaserJet 5 printing in linux here . You might want to dig around hps site if this isn't useful they have what looks like GREAT linux support. HP also has a sourceforge site here. One more site that might help is the linuxprinting.org site for your printer. Hopefully someone else might be able to be of more specific help if these things don't work out for you.
Got it.
Added the printer IPs to my /etc/hosts (no dns for print devices) just to make it easy. Fired up cupsd, then mozilla. Went to http://localhost:631 and set it up as a lpd protocol and just pointed to lpd://LabPrinter. And then I beat my head for hours. Turns out I was using a plain old LJ5, which doesn't gr0k postscript. Funny though, 'cause I was using the driver recommended for it. Anyway, I change to a different printer (LJ5m) which is the same printer but it gr0ks ps, and everything is fine.
I'm printing through my CUPS printer service 8)
BTW pharris did you ever cups working?
Epson Stylus 740 Color
I have my HP DeskJet 722Cse working great with Red Hat 7.3 desktop. I used extensively for Kword and KPresenter while I was taking classes.
Now that I want to establish print server on Debian box but not many are able to help out here from CLI point of view. GUI tools in Red Hat works great though.

Creighton vs. Drake:
Drake leads the all-time series with the Bluejays, 37-22, including the last four meetings. Drake had won the last three meetings entering the MVC Championship game last season, but the Jays claimed the 2012 crown with a 53-38 win.
Last Time vs. Drake: W, 53-38 @ MVC Tournament (3-11-12)
Creighton knocked off Drake 53-38 in the championship game of the 2012 State Farm Missouri Valley Conference Tournament to claim the second tournament title in school history. Tournament MVP Carli Tritz led the Bluejays with 19 points and McKenzie Fujan tied her career-high with 12 points in the victory as the Jays advance dto their first NCAA Tournament in 10 years with the win.
Tritz scored 15 points in the second half after scoring 27 second-half points in the semifinals to earn tournament MVP honors. Sarah Nelson scored 12 points, including a pair of first-half three-pointers and joined Tritz on the all-tournament team.
Creighton scored the final four points of the first half to go ahead 20-16 and then opened the second half on a 17-6 run which featured 14 unanswered points as the Bulldogs appeared to tire, playing their fourth game in four days. Fujan keyed the second half run, as the sophomore scored the first 11 points of the half for the Jays. Fujan hit a career-high three three-point field goals in a three-minute span to start the second half as she equalled her career-high with 12 points. Nelson hit 4-of-8 shots, made 2-of-3 three-pointers and both of her free throw attempts to finish with 12 points, four rebounds, three assists and two blocks.
About Drake
• Located in Des Moines, Ill., Drake has an enrollment of 5,348.
• The Bulldogs finished 2011-12 with a 18-16 record and a 9-9 mark in the Valley. Bradley returned seven letterwinners from last season, including starters Carly Grenfell, Kyndal Clark and Morgan Reid.
• Drake was picked to finish ninth in the MVC preseason poll.
Scouting the Bulldogs (7-12, 2-6 MVC)
Drake enters the matchup with Creighton on a two game winning streak, claiming back-to-back victories over Bradley (66-62) on Jan. 25 and Northern Iowa (63-55) on Jan. 27. It was the Bulldogs first two victories in MVC play.
Despite returning three of five starters from last season, the Bulldogs have struggled adjusting to new head Jennie Baranczyk's system. Sophomore guard Kyndal Clark and junior Morgan have excelled, leading the team with 14.4 ppg and 11.0 ppg respectively. Clark, however, has been turnover prone, committing a team-high 56.
As a unit the Bulldogs have committed 328 turnovers in 19 contests (17.3 per game) and have equally struggled from the foul line, shooting just 68% (255-374).
Three-Ball on the Way, BANG!
With 181 three-pointers in 19 games (9.52 per game) the Bluejays are the NCAA Division I leader in three-pointers made per game. Creighton is on pace to finish the season with 285 triples in 30 games, eclipsing the current program record of 260 in 2003-04. That team played 33 contests, averaging 7.88 treys per game.
Florida Gulf Coast sits in second place with 193 three-pointers in 21 games (9.19), while Missouri is in third (191 in 21 games for 9.09).
Approaching the MVC Midway Point
With a win at Drake on Saturday, Creighton would finish the first half of MVC at 8-1 for just the third time under head coach Jim Flanery. The Bluejays accomplished the feat in 2003-04 and again in 2004-05.
For three, for THREE, FOR THREE
Creighton finished 14-of-26 (.538) from beyond the arc in their win against Bradley on Jan. 27. It was the fourth MVC game that the Jays knocked down at least 10 three-point field goals. Overall Creighton has hit 11 treys or more in eight games this season. Creighton is 7-1 in those contests, the only loss coming at Minnesota.
Three-point Ninja
Sophomore Sammy Jensen has grown into a deadly weapon for the Jays from beyond the arc. The Iowa native is 12-of-26 (.462) from three-point land, including 9-of-13 (.692) in conference play. Defining the term "three-point specialist", Sammy is just 1-for-1 inside the arc this season and 1-for-2 in her career.
Road Warriors
Nine of the Bluejays 15 wins this season have come away from home. Creighton is presently 6-2 in true road games and 3-0 in neutral site contests. The biggest difference has been the Jays scoring offense away from home. In seven contests in D.J. Sokol Arena, Creighton is averaging 58.9 points, away from their home arena the Jays are putting up 79.4 ppg in 11 contests.

Seth Watson, an electrics intern at Riverside Theatre in Vero Beach, receives a light lowered by Colleen Doherty (not pictured), also an electrics intern, from the catwalk while preparing the stage for rehearsals of Ain't Misbehavin'.

Tankersley, a volunteer for the non-profit, no-kill shelter in Fort Pierce and a foster parent for 22 of the rescued dogs, shaved the dog who is blind in one eye and stained from standing in her own excrements for long periods of time. All of the adult, small-breed dog were stuffed in kennels, overbred to the point of severe infections and shot up with mass doses of antibiotics causing loss of teeth, said Rosa Harding, founder of All Pet Rescue. "People are looking at these cute little puppies, but they don't know the backend story of the dogs who were being bred every six months," said Harding.

Recap | Boxscore (Gm. 1) | Boxscore (Gm. 2)Bisons get wins over both Bradley, Dayton
Related Links
Saturday, February 19, 2011The Lipscomb Bisons won two games Saturday, beating Bradley 4-3 in 13 innings and closing out the night with an 18-2 victory over Dayton.
Heading into Sunday's 2 p.m. game with Bradley at Ken Dugan Field at Stephen Lee Marsh Stadium, the Bisons are 2-1. Last season the Bisons did not get their second win until March 5 when they beat Canisius 7-1. The first win of the season was a 4-3 decision at Tennessee Martin March 3, the seventh game of the season.
"You don't ever want to compare seasons, but last year it took us forever to get to two wins," Lipscomb coach Jeff Forehand said. "After we won that first game you could see how our team loosened up.
"They were having fun. The game just got easier. You could see the energy take off after we came back and won the Bradley game."
Bisons 18, Dayton 2
The Bisons bats came alive against Dayton. They scored at least one run in every inning except the eighth, including nine in the sixth.
Center fielder Ricky Coleman collected a game-high four hits, tying his career high.
Designated hitter Richie Goodenow and shortstop T.J. Hoelzer each had three hits. Hoelzer drove in a game-high six runs which is also a career high. Goodenow had two doubles.
The Bisons pounded out 21 hits, including seven doubles, against four Dayton pitchers.
"The bats came alive against Dayton," Forehand said. "We work on that offense. We didn't get it going Friday or in the first game today."
Williams, Lee Wilson, Colman and Hoelzer each had a stolen base.
Right-hander Dannie Strable started the game and threw six innings. He scattered six hits and allowed two runs, one earned. He struck out two and walked two on the way to the win. Left-hander Blake Fonfara, left-hander Chris Nunn and right-hander Chris Orphanos each pitched a hitless and scoreless inning in relief. Orphanos, making his collegiate debut, struck out two of the three batters he faced.
The loss dropped Dayton to 1-2.
Bisons 4, Bradley 3
The Bisons rallied in the bottom of the 13th for a 4-3 win over Bradley.
Right-hander Mike Grace came on in relief and pitched 5.2 innings to pick up the win Saturday afternoon.
Trailing 3-2 the Bisons opened the 13th with a walk by Lee Wilson. Tennyson Dodd was hit by a pitch. Shawn Mehring reached base on an error by the second baseman. Wilson scored on the error to tie the game again at 3-3.
Zach Messer singled to right field to bring Dodd home with the winning run.
The Bisons opened the game with a run in the first inning. M.L. Williams led off with a double and went to third on a throwing error. Williams scored when Dodd grounded out to second base.
Bradley scored a pair of runs in the eighth to take a 2-1 lead. But the Bisons answered in the bottom of the inning with a run to tie the game. Williams doubled for the second time to lead off an inning, this time through the left side. Williams moved to third on a sacrifice bunt by Wilson. He scored on a sacrifice fly to center field by Dodd.
Bradley took a 3-2 lead with a run in the top of the 13th, setting the stage for the rally by the Bisons.
Right-hander Connor Sinclair started for the Bisons. He scattered five hits, struck out seven and walked one in seven scoreless innings.
Right-hander Josh Chism pitched one-third of an inning in relief. He walked four and gave up one hit while allowing both runs in the eighth.
"Chism has good stuff, but he just couldn't locate his pitches," Forehand said. "Hopefully, he will have another chance Sunday."
Grace struck out seven, walked two and allowed three hits and one run on the way to the win.
"I came in thinking I was going to get two outs," Grace said. "The whole season we have been talking about playing match-ups and using as many pitchers as we need to get the job done."
Grace started a few games last season, but has been used primarily as a reliever.
"I just think the key is you can't be nervous when you are out there," Grace said. "Sometimes pitchers get over amped about it. I was starting to wear down a little bit, but the hitters picked me up in the last inning.
"I think I do better out of the pen than I do starting. As a reliever you have to be ready every day. Relieving is where I will best fit in if the team is going to succeed."
Williams had a pair of doubles to lead the Bisons. Wilson also had a double for the Bisons.

Super Bowl Half-Time Classic French Onion and Apple Soup
I love experimenting with recipes, adding something "different" to an already-established recipe. Like adding a couple of crisp Granny Smith apples to French Onion Soup. Yum! Back in December I was blessed to get a 13-Cup Food Processor from KitchenAid and I love it!
Slicing onions with this appliance was such a slick process!
Also, we add apples to gratin, potatoes, salads … so why not add to soup?
When I made this recipe for my family, I was thinking ahead to Super Bowl Sunday. This is a recipe where you could make the soup the night before, then heat it up, dish into individual servings, add the croutons, cheese, and bake.
I like the idea of timing it just right – pulling the individual servings from the oven to serve during half time.
French Onion Soup is such a classic recipe. Sort of like the Super Bowl, which has been around for almost 50 years.
I'd say their both classic!
Put napkins on a platter.
Place a dish on each napkin.
And a spoon for each serving.
I'll be sharing more healthy Super Bowl ideas tomorrow. Stay tuned!
Have you thought about serving "soup" on Super Bowl day?
French Onion and Apple Soup Recipe
Yield: 12 servings
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 2 hours
Total Time: 2 hours 10 minutes
Use a food processor for quick slicing of onions and cheese. Allow enough time for the onions to caramelize to get the sweet flavor.
- 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 16 cups sliced onions (about 4-5 pounds)
- 1 tsp. pepper
- 2 Honeycrisp apples, peeled, chopped into small pieces
- 3 rosemary sprigs, removed from sprig and finely chopped
- 3 bay leaves
- 1/2 cup white wine or dry sherry
- 1/2 cup apple cider
- 7 cups beef broth
- 10 slices sourdough bread, cut into 1" cubes
- 2 cups Swiss cheese, grated
- Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat; add the onions and heat for 5 minutes.
- Continue cooking for 50 minutes, or until onions are caramelized.
- Add pepper, apples, thyme (finely chopped), and bay leaves and cook for a few minutes to soften the apples.
- Add the wine, broth, cider, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook on low for 45 minutes. Discard the bay leaves.
- Preheat the broiler; arrange the bread cubes on a jelly roll pan and broil for 2 minutes, or until toasted (both sides).
- Preheat the oven to 500. Ladle the soup into small ovenproof soup bowls (10-12).
- Divide the croutons evenly on top of each bowl. Sprinkle cheese on top of each dish.
- Place the bowls on a jelly roll pan. Bake at 500 for 8 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
- Serve hot.
6 Responses to "Super Bowl Half-Time Classic French Onion and Apple Soup"
I asked my husband last night what he wanted for Super Bowl and soup was NOT his answer – wings and nachos (not my favourite, but it is HIS game).
Love the idea of adding the apples to the soup.
A small question: I have had some requests for printable recipes – is it a widget/gadget that you use for yours?
Love this Sandy! The recipe and the presentation! Larry loves french onion soup, I hardly ever make and not sure why! I have to try this out…love the addition of sweet apple, yum!
Sounds like a delicious addition! We've enjoyed several Souper Bowls over the years. Certainly makes for easy entertaining!
Hi Sandy,
This looks fantastic! My husband loves French Onion Soup, so I am going to have to give this one a whirl.
And for game day – soup? Well, sort of…the Texas Chicken Chili I mentioned last time is a bit more like a soup than a chili, so maybe that would qualify. :-) But I think your onion and apple soup might just replace it! I love how you did the topping. And, as with all you do, the presentation is lovely.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Sandy, this soup sounds wonderful. I will be making it soon! We often serve soup at our gatherings, sports or otherwise. I have 3 tureens and we often make a chili, chicken and beef or vegetable soup and let friends help themselves. We round it out with rolls and sandwich fixings and dessert is brownies, cookies and a fruit platter. I make the soups and baked goods ahead and prepare the fruit early in the day so I can enjoy our guests and the game!

Mets considering signing Mark Reynolds for the outfield
Ken Davidoff of the New York Post says the Mets are contemplating signing Mark Reynolds to play the outfield.
However, Davidoff says his $7 million price tag may be too high.
Reynolds has played two games in the outfield in his Major League career.
In 135 games for the Orioles in 2012, Reynolds – who was non-tendered by Baltimore last week – hit .221 with 23 home runs and 69 RBI with 73 walks and 159 strikeouts in 135 games. He led the National League in strikeouts from 2008-2011 while with the Diamondbacks.
In his career at Citi Field, Reynolds has hit .281 with four home runs and seven RBI in 36 plate appearances.
Jon Heyman of CBS Sports says the Marlins have expressed interest in signing Reynolds, and the Orioles are still hopeful they can re-sign him, according to Roch Kubatko of MASN.
Michael Baron, ContributorReynolds has prolific power, but he strikes out a ton. That's not uncommon for one-dimensional hitters like Reynolds, who has a long and loopy swing. He is right-handed as well, which is something the Mets need. But he is a corner infielder by trade, and hasn't played in the outfield since 2007 (and all of two games). With Lucas Duda already a butcher out there, I'd be very concerned about the outfield defense with Reynolds in one of the corner outfield spots.

ALBANY, NY - At a news conference at the state capitol this morning, NYS Senate Republicans unveiled a plan to restore a rebate check for New Yorkers, which was eliminated in 2009 amid a budget crisis.
The Senate Republicans, who also have a tenuous majority in their chamber, also called for more than doubling the tax deduction for the dependent children of taxpayers dependent, which has stood at $1,000 for the past 25 years, and updating the amount a taxpayer can deduct for child care expenses, are also items contained in the bill.
Republicans suggest the time is ripe for re-instating or expanding tax refunds and credits after a report produced on Friday, which suggests the state stands to take $200 million more in revenue than Gov.Cuomo had initially forecast in his budget proposal.
Senate Republicans will include the plan they outlined today in their upcoming budget proposal, which they expect to be formally introduced , along with Independent Democratic Conference (which numbers five members) later this week.
Click here to read more about the GOP tax relief proposal from Gannett Albany Bureau Chief Joseph Spector.
"If you don't try to push your priorities, then it will never happen," said NYS Senator Michael Ranzenhofer (R-61st District) who has pushed for the restoration of the rebates ever since they disappeared four years ago.
However, he stopped short of predicting the rebates would make a return, especially because Democrat leaders may have other designs on any additional revenue, such as restoring aid to schools or to Medicaid.
"I think it's more important to get money back into the pockets of middle class taxpayers, rather than into programs which may be set forth as a priority by others in the budget," Ranzenhofer said.
"It is real money...you get a real check in the mail and its basically a rebate on your taxes," said Peter Grimm, a financial planner with The Financial Guys and Next Financial Group. "But the bigger point should be that he taxes in New York State are too high to begin with," Grimm said, adding that Albany needs to make real reforms aimed at reducing property taxes, in order to stop people from leaving the state.

It's from the smokers!) and it is just brilliant. Consequently I am now fabricating a smoker.

BUFFALO, NEW YORK - While the NHL lockout is a letdown for Sabres fans, it's a big kick in the gut to local employers who depend on the games.
With the lockout now pushing deep, through October 24th, a trickle-down effect has begun that's impacting the Sabres and everyone that relies on the team. Businesses are already making decisions to balance their bottom line and fear that serious cuts will be made if the lockout goes further.
"If this thing was to go long, then you're having some dramatic impacts," said Brian Drew, the general manager of Embassy Suites in Buffalo.
The hotel and conference center serves 24 of the 29 opposing NHL teams when they come to Buffalo. On Thursday, all of these franchises snapped their contracts with the hotel, thus, dropping their room and banquet reservations and their food and beverage needs. Drew thinks one area of the hotel will be hit the worst.
"It's the banquet space that you've held, you can't just book a meeting two weeks, three weeks out to fill that space and replace the revenues that are lost and I think that's the toughest part of this," he said.
Drew says that he's turned away business because he couldn't fill these rooms under contracts, which are now old. Another tough part is that fans will be missing out on seeing competitive teams, four in total, against the Penguins, Red Wings, Rangers and Devils. An Islanders game is away.
"We host almost every out-of-town team when they come to play here in Buffalo," said Marc Croce, a Buffalo entreprenuer, who employs more than 300 people at his franchise of Buffalo restaurants and lounges.
Many of them usually fill up because of Sabres action. Croce says he's shrinking hours for employees at those businesses to save money. He says staffing at downtown parking lots that he monitors unfortunately, also need to be cut, because if there's no event, there's no job.
"People that normally rely on those hours to feed their family, some of these people rely on that money to be able to sustain their livelihoods ... they don't have hours," he said.
Plus Erie County and the state suffer, because both won't be cashing in on needed revenue, like the 8.75 percent sales tax and local bed tax at hotels. The state would also suffer from not getting income and payroll taxes.
The answer to solve all this is to bring back hockey.
Local businesses say they really hope the lockout doesn't extend into the winter months, because that's when more people are drawn to Buffalo and to the game.
As for the Sabres, the team tells us that right now, they don't plan on laying off any staff.

THE STRUGGLE FOR IRAQ: DETAINEES; Harsh C.I.A. Methods Cited In Top Qaeda Interrogations
This article was reported and written by James Risen, David Johnston and Neil A. Lewis.
Published: May 13, 2004
WASHINGTON, May 12— The Central Intelligence Agency has used coercive interrogation methods against a select group of high-level leaders and operatives of Al Qaeda that have produced growing concerns inside the agency about abuses, according to current and former counterterrorism officials.
At least one agency employee has been disciplined for threatening a detainee with a gun during questioning, they said.
In the case of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, a high-level detainee who is believed to have helped plan the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, C.I.A. interrogators used graduated levels of force, including a technique known as ''water boarding,'' in which a prisoner is strapped down, forcibly pushed under water and made to believe he might drown.
These techniques were authorized by a set of secret rules for the interrogation of high-level Qaeda prisoners, none known to be housed in Iraq, that were endorsed by the Justice Department and the C.I.A. The rules were among the first adopted by the Bush administration after the Sept. 11 attacks for handling detainees and may have helped establish a new understanding throughout the government that officials would have greater freedom to deal harshly with detainees.
Defenders of the operation said the methods stopped short of torture, did not violate American anti-torture statutes, and were necessary to fight a war against a nebulous enemy whose strength and intentions could only be gleaned by extracting information from often uncooperative detainees. Interrogators were trying to find out whether there might be another attack planned against the United States.
The methods employed by the C.I.A. are so severe that senior officials of the Federal Bureau of Investigation have directed its agents to stay out of many of the interviews of the high-level detainees, counterterrorism officials said. The F.B.I. officials have advised the bureau's director, Robert S. Mueller III, that the interrogation techniques, which would be prohibited in criminal cases, could compromise their agents in future criminal cases, the counterterrorism officials said.
After the attacks of Sept. 11, President Bush signed a series of directives authorizing the C.I.A. to conduct a covert war against Osama bin Laden's Qaeda network. The directives empowered the C.I.A. to kill or capture Qaeda leaders, but it is not clear whether the White House approved the specific rules for the interrogations.
The White House and the C.I.A. declined to comment on the matter.
The C.I.A. detention program for Qaeda leaders is the most secretive component of an extensive regime of detention and interrogation put into place by the United States government after the Sept. 11 attacks and the war in Afghanistan that includes the detention facilities run by the military in Iraq and Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.
There is now concern at the agency that the Congressional and criminal inquiries into abuses at Pentagon-run prisons and other detention centers in Iraq and Afghanistan may lead to examinations of the C.I.A's handling of the Qaeda detainees. That, in turn, could expose agency officers and operations to the same kind of public exposure as the military now faces because of the Iraq prison abuses.
So far, the agency has refused to grant any independent observer or human rights group access to the high-level detainees, who have been held in strict secrecy. Their whereabouts are such closely guarded secrets that one official said he had been told that Mr. Bush had informed the C.I.A. that he did not want to know where they were.
The authorized tactics are primarily those methods used in the training of American Special Operations soldiers to prepare them for the possibility of being captured and taken prisoners of war. The tactics simulate torture, but officials say they are supposed to stop short of serious injury.
Counterrorism officials say detainees have also been sent to third countries, where they are convinced that they might be executed, or tricked into believing they were being sent to such places. Some have been hooded, roughed up, soaked with water and deprived of food, light and medications.
Many authorities contend that torture and coercive treatment is as likely to provide information that is unreliable as information that is helpful.
Concerns are mounting among C.I.A. officers about the potential consequences of their actions. ''Some people involved in this have been concerned for quite a while that eventually there would be a new president, or the mood in the country would change, and they would be held accountable,'' one intelligence source said. ''Now that's happening faster than anybody expected.''
The C.I.A.'s inspector general has begun an investigation into the deaths of three lower-level detainees held by the C.I.A in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Justice Department is also examining the deaths.
The secret detention system houses a group of 12 to 20 prisoners, government officials said, some under direct American control, others ostensibly under the supervision of foreign governments.

PORTLAND, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - In the year 2012, our website, saw around 11 million hits. So what were the most clicked on local stories?
We'll start with number 5:
Well we're actually starting on a sad note... The number five most viewed story was the passing of Togus the cat. Togus the cat was Don Carrigan's much loved cat and also our STORM CENTER mascot. The station also established a fund in Togus's memory, which as of today raised: $2,931.29
The money donated is going towards animal welfare, and shelters across the state, we should mention too that you can still make a donation at any TD Bank.
4. Well it was no shock to us how high this ranked, but it certainly was a shock the night it happened. The earthquake from this past fall. It initially came in as a 4.5, but then was later reduced to a 4.0 This was a very big story on Facebook and Twitter, but also a combined 65,000 hits on our website.
We should mention too that there were big stories about the earthquake, both ranked at pretty much the same number of views, but in-between them was a little story called "Bruce Glaser through the years. So I think we can give Bruce an honorable mention.
3. Our NEWS CENTER election results. It was a very busy election year with the senate race here in Maine, the gay marriage question and of course the presidential election.
2. Possibly the most talked about news story coming out of Maine this year, the Kennebunk police department releasing the list of alleged clients in the prostitution case. There were different stories on our website about this case and if yo combined them, they would probably be number one, but this one specific story comes in as the number 2 most locally viewed story on our site.
And making our way to number one, what was the most viewed local story on our website?
1. It was... Caucus vs. Primary: What's the difference? This was a story filled by Danielle Waugh in January. She sat down with University of Maine Political Science Professor Mark Brewer to have him explain what the difference are between the two.
Let's switch gears now and look at the most popular photo galleries on our website?
5. The photo galleries on our website a extremely popular and coming in at number 5 is a very recent story, the Portland Water Main break.
4. A gallery from June... We saw a heavy amount of rain over the weekend of June 2nd. These images are of various locations throughout the state.
3. This past summer we teamed up with Patrick Dempsey and the Dempsey Challenge, our photo gallery from that day was number 3.
2. Togus the cat from over the years. This was a series of photos Don Carrigan gave us to share of Togus's life. Some images of Togus hard at ork on STORM CENTER days and some lovely images of Togus with the family and meeting his fans.
And the number one most viewed photo gallery from 2012?
1. The effects of Hurricane Sandy in Maine. While Sandy wasn't as powerful in Maine as it was in New Jersey and New York, it still was quite a sight and we received many photos from across the state to show what was happening on that day.

Southfield, Mich. - Lawrence Technological University has been awarded a $1.6 million federal grant to develop and test stronger and lighter armor made of composite materials for military vehicles. The funding is included in the 2010 defense appropriations legislation signed into law Monday by President Barack Obama.
The work will be performed at Lawrence Tech's Center for Innovative Materials Research (CIMR) in conjunction with the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) in Warren and the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) headquartered in Adelphi, Md. The goal is to develop vehicle armor that is superior in design, weight and durability to the vehicle armor currently used by the military.
The funding was included in the 2010 military appropriations bill at the request of Congressman Sander Levin (D-MI). "This award recognizes Lawrence Tech's expertise in lightweight composite materials," Levin said. "The funding will help develop lighter, stronger vehicle armor that is needed to protect our troops in the field. It's an important investment in cutting-edge technology here in Michigan."
The research project will be led by University Distinguished Professor Nabil Grace, the director of CIMR who will also move from chair of Lawrence Tech's Department of Civil Engineering to interim dean of the College of Engineering in January.
Grace is best known for his research on extending the lifespan and reducing the maintenance costs of bridges by replacing steel components with noncorrosive carbon, glass and aramid fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP, GFRP, AFRP) materials and other advanced composites. In the past 10 years he has won more than 30 research grants and contracts totaling more than $20 million.
Several years ago Grace began investigating military applications for reinforced polymer materials. Recently he received a provisional patent for multilayer armor and filed a patent application for composite armor structure for military tanks. He has been working with TARDEC to design, test and evaluate advanced carbon fiber materials that can reduce the weight of military vehicles and body armor while providing greater protection and durability.
"New armor materials, including composites, need to be tested and a standard specification established to facilitate acquisition requirements," said Lawrence Tech President Lewis N. Walker. "We believe that the facilities and expertise available through CIMR can be developed and provide such a path for the U.S. Army."
Lawrence Tech opened CIMR in 2006 with the help of a five-year, $11 million cooperative agreement involving both TARDEC and ARL to provide research with military applications. The $3.2 million building has a 30-foot clearance height and a 25,000-pound crane to accommodate testing of full-scale structural components, such as portable battlefield bridges, up to 100 feet long. Researchers can subject structures to loads up to one million pounds. Additionally, a fire/loading chamber can reach temperatures of 2,300°F, enough to simulate conditions created by the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center.
A full-scale environmental chamber that can simulate harsh weather conditions has just been added at CIMR. This unique new test chamber will enable full- and partial-scale vehicle and composite armor testing under harsh conditions duplicating windblown rain, salt spray, solar/UV light, high humidity and sand storm conditions, in addition to freezing, thawing and dry heat.
"CIMR has the testing facilities needed to ensure that vehicle components made from composite materials will stand up in the harshest conditions," Grace said. "We hope to develop lightweight armor that will save the lives of our soldiers while also improving the functionality and fuel efficiency of the military vehicles they depend on."
Lawrence Technological University, ltu.edu, offers nearly 100 undergraduate, master's and doctoral degree programs in Colleges of Architecture and Design, Arts and Sciences, Engineering and Management. Founded in 1932, the 4,500-student, private university pioneered evening classes and today has a growing number of weekend and online programs. Lawrence Tech's 102-acre campus is in Southfield, and programs are also offered in Detroit, Lansing, Petoskey and Traverse City. Lawrence Tech also offers programs with partner universities in Canada, Mexico, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

TanyaNot Too BadDidn't notice any significant results. I've been using it for about 5 weeks now. I am 32 so did not have anything major, there is only one mimic wrinkle I wanted to get rid of and it's still there. I have a very sensitive skin, this cream fits me overall, just don't expect wonders...

JmmALExcellent Product!Ive been using it for 4 weeks and now that the tube is about out, I want to buy this again. I actually look younger now! Im 34 but I think I look 29! It has had amazing results for me. My skin was sagging my comlexion was ruddy and just didnt look good. Since using this product I have noticed that the texture of my skin has improved drastically and my skin is not sagging anymore! I really cant believe that this product actually works and is not even expensive! I actually saw noticeable improvements right away like my skin looking clearer and smoother. The way that it works is that it peels a very thin layer of your skin off which make it very effective. After waking up in the morning I recommend using a exfoliator which takes off that small amount of skin! You have nothing to lose by using this product except years off your complexion. I cant believe that this product isnt being broadcast on the news as a miracle.7 out of 7 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Comments about Evans G1 Clear Drumhead Pack:
I was looking for something to bring my toms alive. I've changed batter heads but just stuck to the manufactures standard resonant heads. After having the same sound somewhat trying different batter heads I finally decided to go with the Evans G1 resonant heads after receiving some advice from a buddy. It was a very good choice, was just what my DW kit needed!.. I finally think I've found the sound I've been wanting with the G1's to go along with the Evans hydraulic glass batter heads!.. Try these if you want to liven up your kit, it's well worth it!...
Comments about Evans G1 Clear Drumhead Pack:
I bought these to throw on my toms as resononant heads. I had been playing a lot on my lower end practice kit recently and for the sake of saving money had left the stock reso heads on. It got to the point where I couldn't stand the sound of my drums and I decided to finally replace the reso's. There was a never a doubt in my mind that I would get some G1's to go along with my G2 coateds on top. The sound is fantastic. I think I could put an evens head on a trashcan and tune it to sound good. Top notch. Evans for life.
Easy to tune.
Sound great.
Could be cheaper, but they are competitively priced with the Remos and Aquarians of the world.
