Point Foundation empowers promising LGBTQ students to achieve their full academic and leadership potential – despite the obstacles often put before them – to make a significant impact on society.
Mikael was born in Provo, Utah to a devout Mormon family. His parents divorced at a young age and Mikael spent his formative years moving from town to town, eventually settling in Palmdale, California. At fifteen, Mikael came out to his parents, who responded by putting him through two years of religious therapies and programs to "cure" him of his sexual orientation. At seventeen, disagreement with his parents about his sexual orientation caused them to ask him to leave home. He moved out, and lived on his own for a year while he finished his senior year of high school and applied to college. After graduating, Mikael moved to Los Angeles.
Mikael attended the University of California, Los Angeles. At UCLA, Mikael discovered a supportive environment that has encouraged and inspired him to begin work within the LGBT community. He worked at the UCLA LGBT Center and looks forward to being more actively involved in the ex-ex-gay movement. Mikael plans to use his education to work in the field of law and to one day open a legal resource center for emancipated and disowned minors, specializing in assisting LGBTQ youth.
Point offers mentorship, leadership development and community service training to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) students.

Comments about Fender Custom Shop 2012 Custom Deluxe Stratocaster Electric Guitar:
I've had this guitar for about a month now. I've waited to post a review, untill I had played it a lot, and became really familiar with its' sound, playability, and features. I can now state unequivically that this is the finest guitar I've ever played.Yes, fender Custom shop guitars are quite expensive, but considering the build quality, fit and finish, and incredible tone, I think they represent good value.
Firstly, this guitar arrived in absolutely perfect condition,[thanks Musicians Friend] including spot on intonation. The action was a little low for my tastes, but a few turns of the included Allen Wrench took care of that. Secondly, it played like a champ. Gorgeous maple neck and fretboard with a beatiful feel and frets that were just right. Finally, it produced the Strat sound of my dreams. The Abby Ybarra pickups are a revelation. They bite, without being at all harsh, and the 2 and 4 positions quack like a duck. Also, it has incredible sustain. Each note sings untill you cut it off.
As an added bonus, it looks great too. A quilt maple top gives it a special appearance [also adds to the sustain], and the pearl tuners are gravy. Add to this a Jeff Beck synchronized tremelo And bridge [Fenders best, IMHO] and you wind up with very close to the perfect guitar.

I have owned a 60's Mustang, a 60's Tele, and two 70's Strats.
They all had value as collectibles, but they weren't built this well, nor did they play as well as this.

Submission Hopkins to build data analysis super machine->
angry tapir writes: "Disregarding the supercomputing community's insatiable thirst for FLOPS (floating point operations per second), the Baltimore-based Johns Hopkins University is configuring its new machine to achieve the maximum number of IOPS (I/O operations per second) instead.

State Police say the incident started after 3:00 PM Wednesday with a robbery at a Rite Aid in Yarmouth.
The suspects have been identified as 21 year-old Dylan Libby and 18 year-old Madeline Damon. Both are from North Yarmouth, but had recently moved to Bangor.
Yarmouth Police Detective Paul Martin says a lone man walked into the pharmacy and handed over a note demanding narcotics. Detective Martin says the pharmacist handed over a couple bottles of pills.
In a media release, State Department of Public Safety Spokesman Steve McCausland says that after the robbery, police a vehicle driven by Libby, who apparently led them on a high-speed pursuit in which speeds reached up to 100 miles per hour.
That chase ended in a crash at Exit 22 in Freeport. As a result of that crash, both the on and off ramps for the northbound exit were closed through the evening commute.
Police say the two suspects were taken to the hospital and are being treated for multiple injuries. Charges are expected to be filed soon.

1940. USA. Directed by Tay Garnett. Produced by Joe Pasternak. Photographed by Rudolph Mate (Rudolf Mayer). With Marlene Dietrich, John Wayne, Albert Dekker, Broderick Crawford. Dietrich, the brightest star to come out of Weimar, was recovering from being "box office poison" when this rollicking South Seas romance placed her in the arms of John Wayne. Pasternak was the Weimar veteran who had come over with Henry Koster, and Mate was a major cinematographer during Weimar, best known for his work with the great Carl Th. Dreyer (Mikael, Passion of Joan of Arc, Vampyr). Mate later became a director, and this series includes his When Worlds Collide. Garnett, a Hollywood stalwart, had his own brush with Weimar, codirecting Leni Riefenstahl in SOS Iceberg with her mentor, Dr. Arnold Fanck. 87 min.

AKWESASNE - Two local men admitted to illegally making cigarettes on the St. Regis Mohawk Reservation, federal officials said Friday.
Robert C. Oliver Sr., 53, of Burke and Jody Swamp, 48, of Hogansburg pleaded guilty to federal charges of one count each of manufacturing cigarettes without filing the bond and obtaining the required permit and one count each of failure to maintain records concerning the shipment, receipt, sale, and distribution of cigarettes, as stated in the release from U.S. Attorney Richard S. Hartunians office.
The two are scheduled for sentencing on Aug. 3 in Utica.
The maximum sentence for the first count is up to 5 years of prison time, up to a $250,000 fine, along with three years supervised release, and a $100 special assessment. The second charge comes with up to three years of a statutory maximum prison sentence, a fine of up to $250,000, up to three years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment.
If the court accepts the terms of the plea deals from the defendants, each defendant faces a 24 to 30 month prison term. After release, each would have three years of supervised release, a fine up to $250,000, $5 million in forfeiture with $1 million to be paid by the sentencing date, and a special assessment of $200.
Until sentencing, both defendants have been released on their own recognizance.
According to court documents, the two men admitted between July of 2010 and October of 2011 their operation manufactured cigarettes onAkwesasne without the required permit from the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau of theU.S. Department of the Treasury and failed to pay the federal excise tax of approximately $10 foreach carton of cigarettes produced.
Prosecutorsr said he defendants had scores of shipments exceeding 10,000cigarettes made to locations elsewhere in New York, and to Florida and Maine, all withoutcomplying with federal record-keeping requirements so they could evade payment of the federalexcise tax.
At least 2,556 cases totaling 76,680 cartons of unlicensed cigarettes were shipped froma property on Frogtown Road on Akwesasne, according to a release from the U.S. Attorneys Office. The $5,000,000 forfeiture represents the amount ofprofit realized by the defendants from their illegal cigarette manufacturing.
United States Attorney Hartunian said, Each year, the United States loses millions of dollarsin federal excise taxes as a result of unlicensed cigarette manufacturing operations on Akwesasne.Manufacturers who do not pay their excise taxes have an unfair advantage over licensedmanufacturers on and off Akwesasne, as they can charge lower prices and reap substantial extraprofits. The U.S. Attorneys Office will continue its work with federal and tribal authorities to bringunlicensed cigarette manufacturing operations on Akwesasne into compliance with federalregulations. We are appreciate very much the cooperation and outstanding work in this case by theBureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the New York State Attorney Generals

By DIANA ROOTSun Advocate reporter
Saturday, March 20 proved to be a good one for the Sun Advocate and its sister newspaper, the Emery County Progress, as peers deemed the Web sites of the two eastern Utah publications as the best in their respective classes at the annual Utah Press Association Convention in St. George.
"Over the last few years we have won the best Web site award for one paper or the other but we never have come in first in both papers in the same year," said Jason Bailey, the two papers' IT/Web master. "This is very exciting."
The papers also received many other awards at the UPA Awards ceremony banquet during the organization's annual winter convention.
Those awards included a number in the area of editorial excellence as well in the design, presentation and publication of advertising and circulation promotions.
The judging for the awards took place in February of this year by members of the Wyoming Press Association, continuing an interstate tradition that has been going on for years. State press associations around the west trade off judging each others papers and products every year.
This past fall members of the UPA judged papers from New Mexico at the Salt Lake Tribune's office in Salt Lake City.
The Sun Advocate took first place in five categories (besides the web design which doesn't count toward the general excellence award given to the paper that is considered the best in its class each year). First place winners included:
*The best editors column category where the rules required three entries ("People are always more than you know," April 28, 2009; "Listen and learn from your mother," June 23, 2009; and "Understanding what it means to have enough," Nov. 26, 2009) all written by publisher Richard Shaw.
*Best circulation promotion (Firefighters selling subscriptions to buy equipment for their respective departments in June, 2009) with design by Kelly Wilkinson and promotion by Richard Shaw.
*Best in-house produced ad (Better You Medical Spa) by Cherie Murdock and Kelly Wilkinson.
*Best run of press ad campaign (Murice's clothes store) by Jenni Fasselin and Kelly Wilkinson.
*Best advertising idea (Click Away promotion for on-line directory) designed by James Bailey, Lynna Tweddell and Kade Lyons.
Second place winners included:
*Feature series (Three articles on foster parenting, April 21, 23 and 28, 2009) written by Richard Shaw.
*Feature column (Wasatch Behind on July 14, Sept. 22 and Dec. 29, 2009) written by Tom McCourt.
*Sports photo (Dinos overtake Emery... Dec. 15, 2009) taken by Sun Advocate sports writer Terry Willis.
Third place winners included:
*In-house promotion ("Carbon Cooks" columns, ads and cookbook) developed and written by Sherill Shaw with Jenni Fasselin and design by Kelly Wilkinson and James Bailey.
The combined awards added up to a second place finish in the class two newspaper category, with the Signpost, Weber State University's student paper edging out the Sun Advocate for the general excellence award.
The Emery County Progress (which competes in the class one category) won three first places awards, one in the best ROP category, one for best breaking news (story written by editor Patsy Stoddard concerning the shooting of the Sharp couple in the Oct. 27, 2009 issue) and for the best sports columns ("Sports Stuff" written by Garry Arrington). The Progress also won three three second place awards and two third place awards.
Besides the Signpost winning the general excellence award in category two, other general excellence winners included the Sentinal (Spanish Fork) in class one, the Davis County Clipper in division three and the Deseret News in category four, a group of papers that includes the major dailies in the state.
The UPA is led by a president who presides over a board that makes decisions about many items concerning press matters in the state. On Saturday afternoon the general membership of the association elected Richard Shaw from the Sun Advocate as the 2010-11 president.
The position was turned over to him during an ending ceremony that evening following the newspaper contest awards.
"It's pretty humbling to be elected to this kind of a position," said Shaw after the ceremony. "The association been around for 117 years and I will be one in a long line of publishers that have served as president.
"Each year we find ourselves fighting more and more battles at the Utah State Capitol during the legislative session and around the state with various governmental agencies concerning the protection of the publics right to know and issues surrounding transparency in government.
"We always find ourselves protecting those rights through more than just writing articles and editorials in our papers. We have to be active politically to keep things on an even keel."
The Utah Press Association was founded on Dec. 17, 1893 and since then, the association has continually represented Utah's newspapers and helped people gain access to print media.
The purpose of the UPA is to function as a collective voice and a legislative watchdog for all Utah member newspapers.
It assists the public as an economical placement service for news releases and advertising in associate newspapers.
UPA offers an electronic clipping service for anyone with an interest in any particular topic in the state's various newspapers.
The association also provides print media training on a local level and two conventions each year to educate newspaper employees in all aspects of running a successful newspaper.
The UPA is Utah's oldest trade association.

9 Reasons Why a 'Right to be Forgotten' is Really WrongDecember 8th, 2011
The European Commission concept proposal for a data protection regulation contains the so-called right to be forgotten in Article 15. This is not a surprise but the way it has been drafted is quite terrible as I will try to explain below.
Commissioner Viviane Reding made a right to be forgotten into one of the central themes of the privacy directive's review of the last two years and her plans to modernize the existing legal framework for the processing of personal data in the EU. While there are some valuable improvements to the existing data protection rules in the EC's concept proposal, this right to be forgotten is amongst the worst legal inventions I have ever encountered. Below I first shortly discuss the proposal and give 9 reasons why it is really wrong and why it should be abolished.
The basic principle of the 'right to be forgotten' is that data subjects can ask for deletion of personal data. This right to be forgotten is an extension of the existing right of erasure with regard to personal data processing in Article 12 of the Privacy Directive, and specifically targets personal data which have been made public, such as the name or picture of a natural person on a discussion forum. It also extends to links to publications containing personal data, for instance in search engines. The proposed right in Article 15 reads as follows:
Article 15 Right to be forgotten and to erasure
1. The data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data relating to them and the abstention from further dissemination of such data where:
(a) the data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which the data are collected or otherwise processed; or
(b) the data subject withdraws consent on which the processing is based according to Article 5(1)(a), or when the storage period consented to has expired; or
(c) the data subject objects to the processing of personal data pursuant to Article 17; or
(d) their processing otherwise does not comply with this Regulation.
This right shall apply especially in relation to personal data which are made available by the data subject while he or she was a child.
2. Where the controller referred to in paragraph 1 has made the data public, it shall in particular ensure the erasure of any public Internet link to, copy of, or replication of the personal data relating to the data subject contained in any publicly available communication service which allows or facilitates the search of or access to this personal data.
3. The controller shall carry out the erasure without delay, except to the extent that the retention of the personal data is necessary:
(a) for exercising the right of freedom of expression in accordance with Article 79; or
(b) for historical, statistical and scientific research purposes in accordance with Article 83; or
(c) for compliance with a legal obligation to retain the data by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject; this law shall meet an objective of public interest, respect the essence of the right to the protection of personal data and be proportionate to the legitimate aim pursued; or
(d) in the cases referred to in paragraph 4.
4. Instead of erasure, the controller shall restrict processing of personal data where:
(a) their accuracy is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the data
(b) the controller no longer needs them for the accomplishment of its task but they have to be maintained for purposes of proof;
(c) the processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes their erasure and requests the restriction of their use instead;
(d) the data subject requests to transmit the personal data into another automated processing system in accordance with Article 16(2).
5. Personal data referred to in paragraph 4 may, with the exception of storage, only be processed for purposes of proof, or with the data subject's consent, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for an objective of public interest.
6. Where processing of personal data is restricted pursuant to paragraph 4, the controller shall inform the data subject before lifting the restriction on processing.
7. The controller shall implement mechanisms to ensure that the time limits established for the erasure of personal data and for a periodic review of the need for the storage of the data are observed.
8. Where the erasure is carried out, the controller shall not otherwise process such personal data.
9. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 86 for the purpose of further specifying:
(a) the criteria and requirements for the application of paragraph 1 for specific sectors and in specific data processing situations;
(b) the criteria for deleting public Internet links, copies or replications of personal data from publicly available communication service as referred to in paragraph 2;
(c) the criteria and conditions as regards personal data identified for the purpose of restricting its processing as referred to in paragraph 4.
In case that some party does not comply with the right to be forgotten, Article 79 provides for a possibly hefty fine by Data Protection Authorities:
Article 79 Administrative sanctions
3. The supervisory authority shall impose a fine between 500 EUR and 600 000 EUR, or in case of an enterprise up to 3 % of its annual worldwide turnover, to anyone who, intentionally or negligently
(c) does not comply with the right to be forgotten or to erasure, or fails to put mechanisms in place to ensure that the time limits are observed or does not erase any public Internet link to, copy of, or replication of the personal data relating to the data subject contained in a publicly available communication service pursuant Article 15.
So what is wrong about this right to be forgotten ( if that isn't already clear from reading the text of the proposal)? Let me list 9 reasons why this proposal looks like a terrible idea:
1. A right to be forgotten with regard to public information is anti-historical. The idea is that the further dissemination of publications of personal data becomes problematic because they have merely historical value. In very specific cases this can arguably make sense. In some European jurisdictions, Germany for instance, there is what could be called a 'interest to be forgotten' for criminals that have had their share of punishment and need to reintegrate into society. But careful balancing needs to take place in such contexts as well. The regulation contains a reference to processing for historical purposes, for instance in recital 46, but this reference is way too vague.
2. A right to be forgotten actually doesn't exist. The existing right to erasure was never absolute in the first place. It is merely the expression of the general principle of purpose limitation that underlies many of the data protection rules. If a company of government agency processes personal data about you, it needs a legitimate reason to do that. If they no longer have that reason it follows they need to stop processing the data and the 'right to erasure' gives you a specific legal provision to ask them to do so. To call this a right is an overstatement and gives the wrong impression to those that want information deleted as well as those that would like to keep it public. To improve data protection law through the addition of welcome overstatements is quite generally misguided. There are arange of other provisions in the proposal and exieting rules that suffer the same deficit, such as the prohibition of automated decision making.
3. A right to be forgotten wrongly treats freedom of expression as an exception in relation to the right to privacy. Article 15 states the right to be forgotten as the rule. The interest of communicating about others publicly, which notably includes public figures, celebrities, etc…, is tailored as an exception. Under the proposal, the burden of proof is placed on the one that publishes information and one needs to defend engaging in such communications on the basis that they are necessary to exercise one's right to free speech, instead of justified. From a European perspective, this does not respect the need to provide for a balance between the competing interests that are typically at stake. (Notably, from a U.S. perspective and the First Amendment, the proposal is even more problematic.) Relatedly, it strengthens the idea that there is a right to control one's image and reputation in public and the idea that conflicts over making information about others public should be legally resolved through a system of granting rights to control over information flows. This is clearly a short-cut that oversimplifies the values that are at stake in the context of publicity of and about natural persons.
4. A right to be be forgotten will be a tool for censorship. It will strengthen those that want to censor the Web instead of helping those with justified claims to have their personal information removed. The right that is being created is a stick to hit with, the strength of which will heavily depend on the financial means to enter into a legal fight about prolonged publicity of personal information on the Internet. It will be used most effectively by those that have the strongest interest in cleaning up their reputation online.
5. A right to be forgotten strengthens the questionable role of data protection law in the context of public information and networked media. Notably, what is new in the proposal, in comparison with the existing right of erasure of personal data, is that it specifically targets public information. While data protection law has developed in reaction to the use of automated personal data processing systems for government, administrative, and business decision making, it has slowly but steadily extended into the realm of public information and the media, due to the open ended nature of its definitions and the lack of a proper restriction for the public information environment. Unfortunately, the new proposal does nothing to stop this extension of a priori legal regulation of making information about others public. The exception for the media and freedom of expression in Article 81 remains narrow and many of the rules still apply. It also leaves a problematic amount of space to the Member States to interpret the scope of the exception. It is unclear to what extent search engines, social networks, internet archives and non-professional Web publishers such as bloggers or social network users fall under the exception. Data protection law includes a range of rules and principles that apply to any processing of personal data. To apply this legal framework to the media and other contributors to the public information environment is like making journalistic ethics into actual legal rules. This legal prescription of fair treatment of others in public communications violates the principle of free speech.
6. A right to be forgotten as proposed is a frontal attack on linking, search and archiving. Article 15, second paragraph contains the heart of the attack on publicity that is being proposed in the new regulation. The idea is that data subjects should have a right to claim the removal of all sorts of links to 'their' personal data on the Internet. It is no surprise that linking and search are being targeted specifically. These services are fundamental to establishing robust publicity in an information environment characterized by abundance. While the provision does not explicitly establish obligations for third parties (not the source of the publication) such as search engines to remove links to personal information, it is important to realize that the regulation does not resolve whether these third parties can be considered controllers themselves.
7. The proposal includes the threat of a fine, which can go up to millions and millions of Euros. While a right to be forgotten does not actually exist and would be legally problematic due to competing fundamental legal principles, the threat of a hefty fine may help to bring it into existence in practice. The chilling effects of fining those that do not comply with the 'right to be forgotten' or can be considered negligent in this respect are predictable. Imagine running a blog in a way that extends what is traditionally considered as journalism. Or consider running an association, which tends to publish its proceedings of the yearly general assembly online in view of the value it attributes to transparency. Or consider running a music fan-site with a forum with discussions about concerts and related matters. Clearly, such publications will sometimes contain information related to others. Now consider receiving a letter of an attorney of a now public figure that wants to see information removed and points out you can be fined between 500 and 600.000 EURO if you would fail to defend the prolonged publication of the now historical information in question.
8. A right to be forgotten will chill publishers into restricting access to potentially controversial material. The provision, and the threat of a fine, will incentivize web publishers to limit access to controversial information for search engines. Web publishers can prevent running into claims of a right to be forgotten by restricting access for search engines to publications containing personal data, for instance by using robots.txt. Can this sometimes be a good idea? Perhaps, but clearly the information remains accessible for Web users, even though they may not find it so easily. Can this be a bad idea? Of course, it will incentivize Web publishers that would like to open up their offering as widely as possible to restrict its findability elsewhere, thereby producing a bias towards uncontroversial information in search engines and related services.
9. It is reactionary and fashionable. A right to be forgotten alligns with reactionary sentiments about new forms of publicty made possible by the Internet. If there is any support to be found for this right to be forgotten, it must be amongst those who consider the relative uncontrolled nature of such communications as a threat perse. In addition, European politicians may be charmed by the idea of showing their teeth and passing a provision that they understand as actually protecting people's privacy online. Finally, a right to be forgotten! Hopefully, they will in time start to understand the highly problematic nature of this proposal.

If your kitchen has a trash compactor, but you hardly ever use it, then maybe it's time you replaced it with a different appliance. Trash compactors are typically 15 inches wide, but make sure to measure your model and the opening it sits in before deciding on the new appliance you want to exchange it with.
To help get you started, I've put together a list of appliances that are 15" wide and could easily replace your outdated trash compactor. Start dreaming of the ways you can upgrade your kitchen:
Wine Cooler
Like all under counter appliances, you will want to make sure you are purchasing a wine cooler that is specifically designed for built-in purposes. A freestanding unit should not be built into cabinetry because it will overheat and stop working, and in the process, your wine could be ruined.
A wine cooler will definitely upgrade the look of your kitchen. There are many different designs you can choose from, but all of them are sleek and sure to be a conversation piece amongst visiting family and friends.
Aside from the aesthetics, if you enjoy wine, then having a wine refrigerator in your kitchen is convenient. You can easily pair a wine with your dinner, entertain guests or enjoy a glass after a long day at work. The wine will be perfectly chilled to your preferred temperature and waiting for you when you want it.
Some of my favorite 15", built-in wine coolers:
Koldfront BWR300BL Built-In Wine Cooler
– Single zone wine cooler
– Holds up to 30 bottles
– Temperature range of 40 – 65 degrees F
– LED display & interior lighting
– Slide out wire shelves
EdgeStar CWR261DZ Built-In Wine Cooler
– Dual zone wine cooler
– Holds up to 26 bottles
– Temperature ranges:
Lower zone – 40-54 degrees F
Upper zone – 54-64 degrees F
– Slide out steel-trimmed, wooden shelves
Vinotemp VT-26 Built-In Wine Cooler
– Single zone wine cooler
– Holds up to 26 bottles
– Temperature range: 45-65 degrees F
– Has a lock for keeping your wine secure
– Slide out wood shelves
Beverage Refrigerator
What's great about having a beverage fridge in your home is you'll free up space in your kitchen refrigerator. Sodas and beers can take up quite a bit of shelf space that could instead be used for more groceries or leftovers from dinner.
Having a designated fridge for your drinks will also make it easier when entertaining because guests will know exactly where to go for a refill. It also means your refrigerator door won't be constantly opened and closed, causing temperature fluctuations, which can cause some food items, like eggs, to go bad.
My favorite 15", built-in beverage fridges:
EdgeStar CBR900SS Beverage Fridge
– Holds up to 84 cans
– Temperature range: 38-50 degrees F
– Has a lock for keeping beverages secure
– Slide out coated wire shelves
– Blue LED interior lighting
Avanti BCA1501SS Beverage Center
– Holds up to 72 cans
– Temperature range: 34-43 degrees F
– Has a lock for keeping beverages secure
– 2 slide out glass shelves, 1 slide out wire shelf, 1 basket
– LED interior lighting
Marvel Beverage and Wine Fridge
– Holds up to 60 cans & 4 wine bottles
– Temperature range: 40-65 degrees F
– Slide out maple-trimmed, wire shelves
– Double pane, tinted, UV-resistant glass door
– An alarm if the temperature is higher or lower than desired point for an extended time
Maybe instead of drinks, it's too much food that's making it difficult to close your kitchen refrigerator door. An under counter refrigerator might be the answer to your problems then.
Beverage fridges and regular fridges have a similar temperature range, but beverage fridges might get warmer than you need for storing food. Also, many refrigerators have door storage and adjustable shelves, which most beverage refrigerators don't have.
Here are my favorite built-in refrigerators:
Avanti OBC32SS Outdoor Refrigerator
– 3.2 cubic foot capacity
– Reinforced for outdoor use, but can be used indoors
– Comes with attachable caster wheels for easy mobility
– Full range thermostat
– Reversible, stainless steel door
Marvel 30AR Refrigerator
– 3.0 cubic foot capacity
– 3 adjustable, chrome-plated wire shelves & 3 door shelves
– Auto-defrost
– Filler kit allows usage in 18-inch wide opening
– Leveling legs
Ice Maker
Large families, or those that just really love ice, might find that their refrigerator ice maker can't keep up with their needs. Luckily, you can get a separate, larger ice maker than can be built into your kitchen cabinetry.
There are quite a few different under counter ice makers available on the market and most make what is known as clear ice, meaning it contains no impurities; it's restaurant quality. However, the Scotsman that I've included in my list of favorite built-in ice machines makes what is known as nugget ice or, as most people call it, Sonic ice. That's right; you can get delicious Sonic ice right in your home!
My favorite built-in ice makers:
EdgeStar Clear Ice Maker
– Makes up to 45 pounds of ice a day
– Stores up to 25 pounds of ice
– Removable ice bin
– Gravity drain line
– Insulated ice storage
Danby Clear Ice Maker
– Makes up to 32 pounds of ice a day
– Stores up to 25 pounds of ice
– Removable ice bin
– Built-in drain pump
– Produces bullet-shaped ice cubes
Scotsman Nugget Ice Maker
– Makes up to 125 pounds of ice a day
– Stores up to 22 pounds of ice
– Produces "Sonic" ice
– Drain pump with 10 foot pump line
– Uses 40% less energy than standard machines
So, now that you know about the variety of built-in appliances available, it's time for you to update and upgrade your kitchen by getting rid of that outdated, unused trash compactor. Fall in love with your kitchen all over again with any one of these amazing appliances!

Buzz: John Tortorella and Ryan McDonagh Were In The Justin Schultz Meeting
According to Larry Brooks in the NY Post, John Tortorella was part of the Rangers contingent that was giving their pitch to Justin Schultz yesterday.
Tortorella reportedly stressed the Rangers penchant for putting young players into prominent roles right out of college.
McDonagh was a teammate of Schultz's for one season at Wisconsin.
Adam Rotter: The Rangers sent their best team to recruit Schultz and maybe it was enough to sway him. All reports seem to indicate that he wants to play in Canada, but the Rangers present such an interesting opportunity for him, to be with two former teammates, one in McDonagh who was in the same situation, and play a big role on a cup contending team. It isn't home, like Vancouver is, but it's a big opportunity for him.

The British and Irish Lions win the first Test as Kurtley Beale misses late penalties
The Lions held on to win the first Test as the Wallabies, who had multiple injuries to contend with, missed two chances to take the lead late in the game. The outcome of the series now looks as though it'll be down to who adapts best to injury setbacks.
The Wallabies got off to an awful start as debutant Christian Leali'ifano was knocked out cold in the first minute after a strong carry from centre Jonathan Davies. It set the tone for the match, as Berrick Barnes, Pat McCabe, Digby Ioane and Adam Ashley Cooper followed.
At one stage in the second half the Wallabies had flanker Michael Hooper in the backline, but they showed great courage to hang on nevertheless, coming painfully close to snatching the win from two late penalty attempts.
Earlier brilliant tries were scored in a scintilating first half, with debutant Israel Folau scoring after a brilliant Will Genia break, and then George North scoring arguably one of the greatest Lions tries.
Folau got his second try with a sensational inside step and fend, before Alex Cuthbert crossed through the disorganised Wallaby midfield later in the game.
In the end it all came down to a penalty attempt from Kurtley Beale at the death. Beale, just having returned from time out of the game due to some personal issues, slipped on the chewed up turf, allowing the Lions to take the win and go 1-0 in a series that has already been a fantastic advert for the code of Union in Australia.
"KB did as well as he could. I told him not to worry about it... everyone in the team still loves him," said captain James Horwill, who was later cited for a stamp.
Multiple players will undergo scans today and this week, and it looks as though Paul O'Connell is on his way home after suffering with a broken bone in his arm. Prop Alex Corbisiero is also under an injury cloud, so Australian born Ireland prop Tom Court joins the Lions squad as cover.
On the balance of the first Test, one might say that the Lions were lucky to take the win. They played some great rugby but the Wallabies had very little luck, missing early kicks at goal from James O'Connor, losing key players to injury, and of course missing those late Beale kicks at goal.
It'll be interesting to see the approach to the next Test as both units will have to rebuild, restructure and reinvent themselves somewhat, especially the Wallabies, if they aim to take the series victory.

I'd have Tipuric, O'brien and Faletau on the bench and bring them on if things were as this week, maybe start Vunipolo instead of Coresbo.. Obviously injury dependant Roberts at 12 even though Davies had a really good game. And Bowe in for Cuthbert
Bring on next week!

Mike Phillips -> Usually a big game performer, but seemed off the boil today. Hopefully a one off, but the Aussies were all over him today. His leisurely saunter backwards after being stepped by Genia for the first try was disappointing to see.
Substitute Tight forwards -> Cole, Hibbard, Vunipola and Launchbury didn't play up to the standard of Jones, Youngs, Corbisiero and AWJ when it came to scrum time.
Complacency -> The Lions seemed to turn off after 45 minutes and did not do much for the last 35 minutes. Considering they had the attacking threats of North, Cuthbert, BOD & JD2, they did not test Hooper enough when he was at 12.

I'd drop Phillips after today, and give Youngs a chance next week. Phillips' effort (or lack of) when they scored their first try was appalling. He jogged back after a man who had stepped him.

Gatland's decision to substitute the entire front row early on caused a lot of problems, and some of the tackling was very sluggish taking nothing away from 2 brilliant tries by Folau.
With the win behind them I think the Lions will play with far more confidence in the next test. If some of the key play makers can elevate today's good performances into great performances I think they'll rap the series up. Tipuric should be on the bench, but I doubt he will be.
Aussie's very unlucky on the injury front, very. Hopefully, most will recover for next Saturday otherwise it will taint the series - Genia was world class, as always.
FlankerGib June 22, 2013 7:00 pm
I thought Corbisiero was excellent, and totally outplayed Vunipola in both carrying and scrummaging, particularly considering that Vunipola faced weaker opponents - though the loss of Jones (who was poor around the park) for Cole (who was average at best in the scrums and poor around the park) undoubtedly made things harder for Vunipola.
Tom Youngs also outshone Hibbard for me - his throwing was solid, as were his carries and scrummaging, whereas Hibbard missed a tackle or two and obviously the scrum was weaker after the round of changes, though I know too little about the front row to know who was at fault for that.
Cuthbert quiet until his try, but he took his chance and was rewarded.
I also thought the much anticipated battle of the 7s was lacking, with neither dominant at the breakdown. Alun Wyn Jones and POC got through a phenomenal amount of work, though the latter gave away a risky penalty or two late in the game.
mrjmmlc June 22, 2013 7:39 pm
refereeing was just uncomprehensible at the breakdown! seemed like every ruck was a penalty against the lions! anyway we should prepare for the same type of referee next week and be prepared to keep discipline.
front row substitutions really let us down! next week they wont be coming on so soon..
phillips was just dum, played so badly..
freaking heaslip so their scrum was under pressure and didnt take the ball out TWICE! could had cost us the game!
hope to see obrien in the next test!!at least from the bench
at center is a though choice if we get roberts and tuilagi back.. i absolutly dont know what i would do.
all in all great game! only good from the lions for 60minutes
Mastersa June 22, 2013 7:50 pm
That said lions were slow to adapt. Philips and Croft offered little and Warburtons skills simply weren't needed. Hope to see Youngs, SOB start and Falatou as impact sub. Roberts back in centre with BOD. Cutbert deserves to stay after that try even though I'm a bowe fan.
browner June 23, 2013 12:39 am
Surely the IRB can insist on standard interpretations, they appoint referees ..... start demoting all those who won't apply standard interpretations, all this SH NH divide is poor for the game.
If the SH want to play RL then bugger off & do it. As a Union xplayer & fan I want to see contests all over the pitch..lineout, ruck, maul, tackle, jackal, scrum feeds, hooking, kick off catches etc
It's supposed to be an international sport.
Phillips has always kept guards occupied with his taxiing, but it slows down ball to receivers , when he can't get through it looks terrible, but when it works he's a handful. everyone can see Youngs service is quicker, but if he doesnt interest the defenders they just smother the 1st/2nd receivers ..... take your pick. Croft did lots of tackling, still worth his place IMO
can't wait for next sat .......

We do not come full circle. You are picking and choosing what you respond to in the same way that someone unable to hold a reasoned argument does. I would invite you to watch the full match from start to finish, yet that wouldn't make any difference as you are so determined to see everything through that solitary eye of yours.
Why does someone stating what they saw have to be classified as a moan, because it's contrary to what you believe? Must be.
Anyway, the officiating of this match has just been blown out of the water at how bad it was by the farcical clearing of Horwill from the blatant stamp.

Shouting and punching the ball away after the try would be more congruent behaviour if the point had been meant in a taunting or disrespectful player.
I understand northerners don't see many tries scored so they may not be as used to the scoring process as us southerners.

Oz feeds into the scrum as so crooked its a laff, but they get away with it.
This might shake up Gatland and bring a few onto bench and starting 15 - most pointed out above (I'd say Tipuric, SOB, Bowe and maybe Roberts, as he partners well with BOD)
Lions were arrogant in not taking pens when they were on offer, and the state of the pitch?!? It was a disgrace. It had too much influence on the outcome of the match - like the collapsed scrum at th eend and the slip for the last kick.

OxonRugby - 89 June 22, 2013 11:42 pm
As mentioned previously, whilst is it not right to question the referee (alas the sport would degenerate into football), objectively, I dothink this referee's interpretation of the breakdown strange. The lions did not receive a single penalty during the course of the game for the Australian's hanging-on after the tackle had been made. If scrum halves have a time limit of 5 seconds (adjudged when the ref believes the ball is playable), would it be reasonable to introduce a similar measure for when a player is deemed to have held onto the ball on the floor: perhaps a time limit of 3 seconds of so? This would certainly limit the degree of interpretation at the breakdown, increasing consistency when refereeing in the northern and southern hemispheres.
At times I thought the lions looked a bit disjointed - perhaps Youngs in for Phillips and Roberts alongside BOD. Maybe O'Brian in at 6 to beef-up the back row in place of Croft.
goodNumber10 June 22, 2013 11:55 pm
Hooper was continually offside, getting to his feet on the wrong side and in the path of the 9, of their feet a lot (why no yellow card when off their feet 2 metres from the line).
i really don't think he was consistent in his rulings, at least not consisten between both sides.
terrible reffing imho!

All of this aside, the Lions can play better. Tight five were fantastic, back row is unbalanced, leaving Warburton to shoulder too much of the dirty work. Heaslip went missing, as many predicted, and Warburton needs someone like Faletau to balance it up as I think Croft had a good game, albeit he's not my ideal 6. Phillips had one of the worst games I've seen him have on the international stage as he just looked for contact too much, still wouldn't start with Ben Youngs next match as I think Phillips will come good. Centres, can you really drop JD2 after his performance? Only problem being that O'Driscoll plays well with physical centre inside him. If Roberts is fit you'd probably have to put him in for JD2, but wouldn't put in Tuilagi. Back three, not without fault but had a good all round game. Cuthbert doesn't deserve to be dropped, but if Bowe is fully fit then I'd find it difficult to leave him out.
Bench was a mixed bag with Dan Cole and Vunipola lacking a bit in the scrum, but Parling, again not my favourite, doing what he has done well this tour and doing well from the bench. Won't oust the starting locks but I wouldn't want anyone else there. Tom Youngs was good, solid lineout, Hibbard was good, solid in the loose. Youngs the right call to start though.
DanKnapp June 23, 2013 1:21 pm
Hold up. This is a rule which is never understood properly. Take some time to read this, watch the video, and you'll understand why the decision was correct.
A pass is ruled forward ONLY IF it is released forwards. The movement of the hands is the important aspect here. If the movement of the hands is backwards, the pass is backwards.
If a player is charging at full speed, and releases the ball backwards, the ball might still travel FORWARDS due to momentum. It is important to understand that this is still NOT a forward pass.
Look at the following video, released by the IRB, which will explain.

really hope obrien plays next game, either from the bench or starting. also think croft should stay, he did well, especially in the line out and tacked a lot and with an open game if he gets an opportunity he can make the difference
think the front row subs maybe need to come one prop at a time and later. corbs did well and is good scrumager. youngs played really well too
think lions should start contesting more in the line out. maybe bring on parling earlier, would bring him for poc instead of awjones though
phillips may have just played himself out of the starting line up for next game. i would bench him
centers is a reallly difficult decision because jondavies has been playing so well and if he doesnt start he probably wont even be on the bench as farel has to cover for flyhalf and covers for center as well. but can you realy leave roberts out if he is fit?
back 3 should stay the same and take bowe on the bench, he can make a real impact

Wasn't 2005 the year two of your players dislocated BOD's shoulder by driving it into the ground, off the ball?
Forgive me if I don't have a lot of love for your precious All Blacks.
Roadpig June 24, 2013 2:52 pm
As a neutral supporter of this particular game, I concur with the sentiments of GoAllBlacks - the general tone and content of Lions' supporters has been nothing if not consistent - whining about the referee.
I thoroughly enjoyed the game, but seeing how apparently unreasonable the "majority" of lions fans are (or is it only the nutjobs who are commenting), I am certainly barracking for Australia in the next game.
DK - your rejoinder is nothing more than a tacit admission as to the legitimacy of GoAllBlacks critiques - rather than deal with the same on any reasonable level, you bring up past events which have nothing to do with the discussion, fail to engage with any of the points raised but which happen to involve the team which GOA supports! I suppose it did make me laugh ...

Cuthbert finished his try really well, but overall I thought he had a poor game. If Bowe is fit, he has to come back in to the starting XV. Philips was terrible, but he will probably keep his place on the assumption that he can't possibly play as bad as that two games in a row! Thought Croft was pretty anonymous, and SOB could have wreaked havoc on an Oz backline that was all at sea in the 2nd half.
My 2nd Test team: 1) Corbisiero 2) Youngs 3) Jones 4) AWJ 5) POC 6) SOB 7) Warburton 8) Heaslip 9) Phillips 10) Sexton 11) North 12) Roberts/Tuilagi 13) BOD 14) Bowe 15) Halfpenny. Subs: Vunipola, Hibbard, Cole, Parling, Tipuric, Youngs, Farrell, Zebo/Hogg

People are complaining about the reffing because in the northern hemisphere we still play a game where contests at the breakdown are allowed. The reason why there is hardly any contest allowed in the Super 15 (and forward passes, accidental offsides are hardly ever called as well) is because of the poor crowds year after year. Cheer leaders and more tries is their answer. Well, we've got a game where nearly every game of consequence is a sell out and we don't like to see the erosion of the aspects of the game that allow the ball to be slowed down, challenged, turned over. The fact is it is a global game and it is frustrating to see the custodians of the game splitting the rules' interpretations into north and south.
From someone who watched the game more closely I can tell you that the lions did get pinged more often - twice as much. There was some ridiculous decisions last night where the team with ball in hand was given massive latitude. The penalties against O'Driscoll were wrong. Have a look at the amount of time Folau holds onto the ball after he knocks out Barnes. Where in the rules does it say you can do that? Yet O'Driscoll was pinged for diving on the ball before the first try - rightly, but there was no consistency.
Lastly, as for whinging, when Australia go up north and lose at Murrayfield we hear all about the weather, the pitch, the ref, the slow ball. Kiwis are still going on about losing to France in the quarters two world cups ago to a forward pass that would never get called in the super 15.
Snoop June 23, 2013 2:34 pm
Previous to the game the Lions assistant coach Rob Howley said: "We're quite happy with Chris Pollock refereeing, he's an outstanding referee." I'd imagine that Howley has a better grasp of Pollock's refereeing style (which was consistent with Saturday night's performance) than you (or most people on this forum), and that the Lions had prepared accordingly. Perhaps the reason O'Connell (who I thought was fantastic), BOD and co. were pinged against the Wallabies when they hadn't previously in Australia, was because last night they were playing a test side, not a Super Rugby Franchise.
I have to agree with you about the erosion of Super Rugby to the point where there is no contest for the ball; the competition has produced too many players like David Pocock, George Smith, Richie McCaw, Rene Ranger, Schalk Burger, Willem Alberts etc etc who have never been able to dominate Northern Hemisphere players at the breakdown.
At the end of the day the Lions tour should be an advert for international rugby, and everyone I have talked to since said that the match was scintillating footy, with more time with the ball in play than most tests, and a true spectacle to behold.

JJ June 23, 2013 2:56 pm
Only other changes I'd like are SOB for croft for more power, he's dominated Aussies before and Bowe for Cuthbert, good line for a try created for him but did nothing else. Possibly Tuilagi for Davies justo get more power in midfield, a better foil for BOD.
Apart from that great match! Hope the next two are as good. Aussies stuck with it to the end despite the injuries, Beale was devastating in attack, cruel end to the match for him but I'll take it!!

The great reefing debate? It did seem biased but sometimes a team doesn't listen to what the ref is saying to them. So perhaps, the Lions didn't learn quickly enough what he wanted. Neutrals have come on here and said it was fair, so it probably was. Also we really don't want to be like soccer fans bleating the whole time.
The game will live long in the memory, the refereeing won't.

@Snoop and @DanKnapp. I liked that paragraph too, and I see what you mean. Of course no NH side would be the slightest bit interested in having players the calibre of Pocock, Smith, McCaw .. so ineffectual, so poor at the breakdown. Continually being bossed! I just can't understand why their nations select them and why those who know the game intimately and have seen them play on several continents against all-comers, consider them among the finest loose forwards and ball winners ever to play the game. Baffling really, when you consider the loads of northern loosies that have consistently dominated SH sides over the years. (Stop giggling at the back). And as for Rene Ranger, I would have thought as a centre/wing he had limited opportunities compared to the others, especially as he's only played against Wales and France from the NH. The feeling is that he did pretty well in all of them, some would say extremely well. You've got me puzzled there guys. Oh well, I'm sure you know what you meant to say.

But like France, vs new zealand, u need to take ur points when needed
Next 2 tests will be interesting to watch, whatever the outcome

Unsure whether to stay or flee, Cliff and Cydney join up with two other couples, and things begin to go terrifyingly wrong.

FORT WORTH, Texas (SWBTS) – A Southwestern Gold Card can be just that—gold. With a seminary Gold Card—the card students and spouses receive in the student center after registering for classes—families can visit the Brother's Keeper house and find clothing and household items they need for free.
The house operates like a campus thrift store, except it is more than thrifty; it's free. Each family can take five adult items, 10 child items and a reasonable amount of needed household items each time they shop in the store.
"I tell them that pretty much if they can carry it, they can take it, [when it comes to household items]," said Brother's Keeper Coordinator Heidi Mizell.
A crew of eight volunteers runs the Brother's Keeper ministry, which accepts donations of gently used items throughout the year. Mizell said the ministry often receives donations of high quality items from stores such as Anne Taylor and The Limited. Volunteers sort through incoming donations and organize them in the Brother's Keeper house so that students can shop for their specific needs. Students can find anything from men's suits and maternity clothes to baby clothes, toys, and toasters. And if the house does not have one particular item, students can write what they need on an index card and post it on a bulletin board in the entryway of the house.
This vital but sometimes overlooked ministry is all part of an effort to make sure no student lacks the basic essentials for living—an effort Deanna Williams, wife of Associate Dean of the College at Southwestern Lee Williams, says led her to begin volunteering with Brother's Keeper several years ago.
"The reason that I do it is because there's a need, and it's something that we can do to meet thatneed."Deanna Williams
"The reason that I do it is because there's a need, and it's something that we can do to meet that need," Williams said. "You try to find something that matches your abilities, so I can smile at people when they're coming in, and I can hang stuff in the right places."
Mizell said the Brother's Keeper ministry has been able to bless many families who follow the Lord's call to Southwestern, including those who leave everything behind to do so.
"There was one family that literally loaded up their car and came with nothing," Mizell said.
Williams said helping to outfit families with the things they need allows them to concentrate on their studies.
"This way they don't have to worry about, 'Am I going to have sheets on my bed? Or a plate to eat off? Or a coat to keep me warm?' And they can focus on what they came here to do," Williams said.
Williams also suggested that students who have accepted preaching assignments for Revive This Nation, check at Brother's Keeper for suits and ties as they prepare to travel to their respective churches.
Brother's Keeper, located at 4844 Stanley Avenue, is open from 10 a.m. – noon on the second and fourth Saturdays of each month, except July, and Tuesdays from 12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. The ministry is currently accepting both donations and new volunteers. Those with donations for Brother's Keeper can drop off items to volunteers during open hours. For questions about donating to, shopping in, or volunteering with Brother's Keeper, contact Mizell at (817) 923-1921, ext. 7200.
