BRASHER FALLS - The St. Lawrence Central hockey team heads to the New York State final four ranked on top of the latest state sportswriters Division II poll.
According to veteran coach Mickey Locke, now comes the time for the Larries to prove it on the ice.
Its a nice feather in our cap to be ranked number one but our objective is to be number one after Sunday, said Locke as the Larries get set to take on Section 1 champion John Jay-Cross River in the state Division II semi-finals at the Utica Aud on Saturday starting at noon.
Its definitely a little more than just another game. They are going to be a formidiable opponent. Weve had a great week of practice and weve been telling the kids to concentrate on doing the things that theyve been doing all season to get to this point, Locke added.
The Larries have put together a banner season so far in Lockes 30th year behind the bench, the majority of those years assisted by Randy Roy. The captured the NAC Divisivion II regular season banner before going on to claim the Section 10 title for the first time since 2010 with a convincing win over Norwood-Norfolk in the Division II final.
The Larries followed that up with a 3-1 win over Section 5 champion Webster Thomas in the first round of the state tournament last Saturday at the Tri-Town Arena to earn their bid to the semi-finals. They head to Utica with a 17-4-1 record and will be looking to end a state championship drought that dates back to 1982 when they won their only title. In their previous trip to the state tournament, they made it past the first round before falling to Queensbury in the semi-final round..
The core members of this years team played limited roles as freshman on the 2009-10 squad but they have stepped up to lead the Larries hopes this winter. Senior forwards Ian Lynch (20-19-39) and Blake Baldwin (8-18-26) are the third and four leading scorers on the team while Eric Lynch (2-10-12) has been a versatile anchor on the blueline.
The Larries have also gotten outstanding leadership from a talented crop of underclassmen. Sophomore Lukas Arquiett leads the team in scoring with 21 goals and 25 assists for 46 points while junior Kody Kocsis has tallied another 39 points on 20 goals and 19 assists. Senior Devon Euto (7-17-24) and sophomore Nathan Stickney (12-6-18) have also been leading contributors. The third-line trio of sophomore Luke Peets, senior Isaac Beckstead and sophomore Nick Kowlachuk has seen limited action in the post-season but combined to score the eventual game-winning goal in the win over Webster Thomas.
The Larries defensive corps took a big hit when senior Parker Meashaw was lost for the season to an injury but senior Jarek Crump, sophomore Joe DiMatteo and freshman Jake Sutton have combined with Eric Lynch to be one of the teams strengths along with tthe play of senior netminder Nate McLaughlin (2.36 goals against, .905 save percentage).
Weve played well defensively as a team. We have as strong a group of defensive-minded forwards as there is in our section, maybe even the state. Even with the loss of Parker, weve had some of the younger guys step up and weve been solid on defense and Nate has been stellar for us in goal, noted Locke. Weve also been doing a great job on special teams in the playoffs with six goals on 10 power plays and were 7-for-7 in penalty kills.
John Jay enters the game at 22-1-1 as the second-ranked team in the state. They outscored Rye 5-1 in the Section 1 final before skating to a 4-2 win on the road over Sedction 2 champion Queensbury in their state tournament opener.
Shawn Smith leads a potent John Jay offense with 48 points on 36 goals and 12 assists. Frazier Bostwick has 40 points (23-17) followed by Jack Grimm (16-9-25) and Mark Laprine (9-15-24). Six other players have generated 13 points or more while Matt Lanza had posted a 1.57 goals against average and .923 save percentage handling the bulk of the goaltending duties.
They have some very good forwards and they have good overall team speed, said Locke. We just have to come out and perform like we have all season. If we do that, we can be successful.
The other Division II semi-final on Saturday between Beekmantown (17-3-1) of Section 7 and CBA-JD (15-8-1) of Section 3 is slated to start at 9:30 a.m. The state Division II final is scheduled for Sunday at 12:30 p.m.

FINAL: Bruins 3 Rangers 1
Adam's Thoughts:
- Penalties and bad changes hurt the Rangers in this game, but those issues will be figured out in the coming games. Working out those kinks is why they have preseason games.
- I thought tonight was a good showing of what Rick Nash can bring to the lineup. He didn't score, and they didn't dominate offensively, but he went to the net, used his heavy shot and protected the puck well. He looked engaged and was more than willing to attempt to block shots when he was out on the PK.
- It's tough to read into tonight because it's the first game and they are coming off a six-day training camp with no preseason games.

SKOWHEGAN, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Maple syrup producers are hoping for a good year of production following one of the worst seasons ever.
Unseasonably warm weather last March cut the 2012 maple syrup season short for almost all of the roughly 350 licensed producers in Maine. James Smith with Smith Brothers Maple Farm in Skowhegan was one of those affected. His operation produced half as much syrup as it normally does.
"Last year was one of the worst seasons we ever we ever had. It was very bad," said Smith.
The Skowhegan operation boils as much as 500 gallons during a good year. Something that could happen this seasonaccording to maple syrup expert, Kathy Hopkins, with the University of Maine Cooperative Extension.
"You need the right temperature at night and again during the day and so far it seems like the weather will perform this year," said Hopkins.
In addition to the season, several maple syrup farmers are gearing up for the 30th Maine Maple Sunday that will take place on March 24th allowing the public to visitparticipating farms and see how syrup is produced.

WhitSeattleHairDark BrownDry HairFine or Thin HairVery CuteSuper cute headband, comfortable, versatile, and the price is reasonable...my only complaint is that the silk ribbon on top can slip off the band pretty easily, as it's attached only on the two ends of the headband. Just be careful when putting on and removing headband and you'll be pleased.

Mireille L.HairDark BrownNormal HairThick or Coarse HairRider's Bits Make For Lovely AccessoriesWith the caveat that this would have earned 5 stars if I'd received almost any other color (and taking exception to a TINY flaw, which I'll describe later), this VIP Reviewer is very impressed with both the look and feel of the France Luxe Small Bit Headband. I received the Hot Pink in 100% silk charmeuse with a gold rider's bit detail which rests off-center on the headband. The bit stays in place with the help of a thick length of silk folded through the bit loops, which is layered over still more silk, covering the headband, itself. With fully padded tips, the headband stays in place in your hair, but never feels like it's squeezing your scalp; in short, it fits perfectly.
On the inside surface of this hand-crafted headband, you'll notice a label, which says, "L. Erickson USA". I had to find out more about this name, and discovered that Laurie Erickson is the founder of France Luxe, and her name appears on this headband as part of an exclusive line handmade in the United States.
I admit that with my dark brown hair, this hot pink headband looked just right, but keep in mind that Folica offers seven different colors in this classy but simple style if you're looking for something a little less "hot", because this is a very bright pink. It's perfect for all hair types from thick to fine, since it holds lightly but firmly in place. However, I did notice a very tiny flaw -- the loops and bars of the decorative bit are held together by a "jump ring", which is a simple metal ring that is supposed to form a closed circle, often used in jewelry to hold different pieces together. The jump ring on this headband was slightly open; though it wasn't about to separate, it looks like it might. If you do receive a headband with a slightly open jump ring, use either needle-nose pliers or, if you have them, round-tipped pliers to easily close the ring.10 out of 12 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Overall Funding Levels. The Interior and Related Agencies bill conferees addressed many funding shortfalls that the Department identified as problematic throughout the appropriations process, including BIA's trust funding, BLM's special areas, BIA school operations, important Federal land acquisition priorities and USGS science support. The final conference version of the bill provides $9.4 billion for Interior. Combined with $816 million in the Interior appropriations in the Energy and Water Development 2001 appropriations bill as conferenced and passed by the House, the overall budget for 2001 would be $10.2 billion.
(Note: The conference report in the Interior and Related Agencies Bill (H.R. 4578) was filed about noon on September 29: H. Report 106-914. As an exclusive for our friends on the web, the Office of Budget is providing PDF versions of two tables we use to track the Interior bill: by bureau; and by key functional area.)
Lands Legacy Initiative/Land Conservation, Preservation, and Infrastructure Improvement Program. After protracted negotiations with the Administration, the conferees agreed to create a six-year $12.0 billion Land Conservation, Preservation, and Infrastructure Improvement Program as an alternative to the President's Lands Legacy Proposal. The 2001 program includes a new category of funding in Title VIII that provides $1.6 billion, $1.2 billion of which is for Interior and Forest Service programs, including: Federal and State LWCF funding ($385 million for Interior; $155 million for Forest Service), State and other conservation programs ($220 million for Interior; $80 million for Forest Service); urban and historic preservation ($118 million for Interior; $36 million for Forest Service; $6.0 million for YCC); maintenance ($100 million for Interior; $50 million for Forest Service), and PILT payments ($50 million for Interior). The remaining $400 million is for coastal programs in NOAA. Total funding amounts are available under a cap and fence structure. Funds are set aside under the budget resolution and can only be spent for new land conservation, preservation and infrastructure improvement activities (cap mechanism). While funds are subject to appropriations through the annual appropriations process, they may not be spent on any other purposes (fencing mechanism). Funding within the cap and fence will grow by $160 million a year, reaching a total of $2.4 billion by 2006.
Fire. The conferees provide a total of $978.8 million for wildland fire management, including $553.7 million in contingent emergency funding. This level fully supports the Secretary's September 15 recommendations to the President and is $682 million above what was requested in the original 2001 budget request. It supports expansion of rehabilitation and restoration efforts on burned areas. White House and Congressional negotiators agreed upon bill language that provides the Secretaries discretion to implement procedures that would streamline and shorten NEPA and ESA clearances.
Priority Federal Land Acquisition. As part of the new Land Conservation, Preservation, and Infrastructure Improvement Program, the conferees provided a total of $293.9 million for Federal land acquisition for Interior bureaus: $31.1 million for BLM ($60.9 million requested); $62.8 million for FWS ($111.6 million requested); $70.0 million for NPS ($147.5 million requested). The remaining $130.0 million for Interior will be allocated by the Committees at a later date.
Land Management Operations. The conference version of the bill provides slightly more than $3.0 billion for land management operations for the Bureau of Land Management, the National Park Service and the Fish and Wildlife Service. This is $236.6 million or 8.4 percent above the 2000 enacted level, and $22.3 million or 0.7 percent above the President's budget request. The conferees establish a new, separate account for the U.S. Park Police.
Construction. The conference version of the bill provides $679.5 million for the construction programs of the Bureau of Land Management, the National Park Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs. This is $196.1 million, or 41 percent, above the request and $78.1 million or 13 percent above the enacted level. The bill provides full funding for six schools on BIA's new school priority list as requested in the Budget.
Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). The Conference mark funds BIA at $2.1 billion, an increase of $272.1 million above the 2000 enacted level, but $59.8 below the President's budget request. The conference bill provides the full request for the BIA component of the Rocky Boys water settlement and implementation of the NAPA recommendations. The conferees provided $67.9 million of the $71.2 million requested for BIA's trust reform efforts. While this is $3.3 million below the amount requested, it is substantially higher than initial funding provided in both the House and the Senate versions of the bill. Funding for school operations was also increased in conference above both the House and Senate levels. The conference version of the bill includes $489.5 million for school operations, $17.1 million below the request, but $22.6 million above the 2000 level. Additional funding was provided in conference for the Housing Improvement Program ($+4 million), FACE (+$3.6 million), and the therapeutic model ($+3.0 million).
Indian Trust Programs/Office of the Special Trustee. The conferees fund the Office of the Special Trustee at $119.2 million. The bill fully funds all of the request for trust reform efforts within OST, including an additional $27.6 million for needs related to the Cobell litigation and funding to correct the breaches of trust that were identified after the budget was sent to the Congress. The bill funds $9.0 million of the $12.5 million requested for the land consolidation account, $4.0 million more than the 2000 level.
Science Programs. The conference provides $882 million for Interior science programs, including the $20 million provided under the Land Conservation, Preservation, and Infrastructure Improvement Program. While this is $8.3 million below the 2001 request, it is $73.7 million above the 2000 enacted level. Within the total, the bill provides: $8.0 million above the 2000 enacted level for USGS science centers and $3.4 million of the $13.0 million requested for "DOI Science Priorities" to be used to fund high priority research needs of the Fish and Wildlife Service.
BLM's Public Land Treasures Initiative. The conference bill provides a total of $11.4 million ($8.0 million on top of the $3.4 million provided in the Senate version of the bill) of the $16.0 million increase requested for this initiative. Neither the House nor the Senate had provided any of the increase requested for operations of national monuments, national conservation areas, Headwaters Forest, Otay Mountain wilderness, and wild and scenic rivers. The conference report provides that the funding must be directed to National Conservation Areas, National Historic Trails, and Wild and Scenic Rivers.
Abandoned Mine Lands. The conference bill provides $5.7 million of the $14.4 million increase requested by the Administration for AML reclamation grants. Within this increase, the bill includes a $2 million increase in funds available for the Appalachian Clean Streams Initiative. The conferees provided an additional $98.0 million in emergency funding for the Combined Benefit Fund to help meet the health care costs of those retired coal miners and their dependents that can be assigned to responsible operators, and $12.6 million for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to address reclamation and acid mine drainage (AMD) remediation in its anthracite coal region. In addition to these funds, the 2000 Emergency Supplemental bill, enacted on July 13th, provides $9.8 million for West Virginia's surface mining regulatory program to enhance program capabilities and address staffing issues.
Office of the Solicitor. The conferees provided only $40.2 million for the Solicitor, the same level as the House, $3.8 million below the request. This level of funding poses the possibility of a reduction in the Solicitor's staffing by suspending hiring behind vacancies or other more drastic management options. This level does not fund year-to-year fixed cost changes.

5 Seriously Dangerous DIY Machines (Videos!)
Time versus money. Would you rather put in more hours doing yardwork or spend some cash on powerful tools to do the job quickly? If you're willing to invest, nothing can speed outdoor jobs more than a backpack leaf blower—the gardener's answer to the jet pack. We gathered five homeowner models, ranging from 45.4 to 50.8 cc, and gave them a workout blowing wet and dry leaves, sticks, pine cones and seedpods. We also evaluated two new pro models that represent the industry's future—one is a four-cycle and the other a two-stroke hybrid. During a second phase, we tested how homeowners used this gear by working alongside volunteers clearing leaves at a church. Here's what we found.
Clearing the Air
The future is clear for two-stroke power equipment. It either becomes cleaner or it disappears. That's especially true for the varieties that pros operate for hours a day. We tested two low-pollution models, both of them commercial-duty. The Stihl is a hybrid that uses a four-cycle engine but two-stroke fuel. The Makita is a true four-cycle machine.
Do you give up performance when you go with cleaner equipment? No. These machines move an awesome amount of air—and leaves. Although it's difficult to quantify, I'd say they'd allow you to cover about a third more ground than you would with the residential equipment mentioned here, and they can move material that's soaked, packed or lightly frozen. After a thorough workout, we'd have to say that these machines fought to a draw—each has advantages.
Desirable Features
• Large top carrying handle
• Highly accessible fuel spout
• Translucent gas tank
• Ledge large enough to place your foot on when starting handle with throttle
Engine: 48.6 cc
Air: 447 @ 171 MPH
Dry Weight (lb): 22.7
dBa (at 50 ft): 71
Price: $300
Likes: Only the Dolmar is equipped with both a top handle and a roll-cage handle on both sides. Sounds like a minor feature until, like us, you find yourself on and off a tractor and in and out of a pickup truck. Those handles make all the difference. This is a capable machine, if somewhat less powerful than its competitors.
Dislikes: The Dolmar is cursed with a kooky graphic on the left control arm. It's confusing. You can too easily try to start the machine with the ignition switch off.

Native New Yorker Marc Jacobs began his design career in 1981 when he attended Parsons School of Design. On the evening that Marc Jacobs was showing his senior collection and receiving some of the school's highest honors, a fashion executive in the audience took immediate notice. The conversation that followed led to the creation of a partnership based on two very simple concepts: a love for fashion and a commitment to quality.
Two years later, Marc Jacobs ventured out and designed his first clothing collection bearing the Marc Jacobs label. In 1995, he launched his first full collection of men's ready-to-wear clothing. 2000 saw the launch of the first Marc Jacobs handbag collection.
In 2001, Marc Jacobs and his business partner, Robert Duffy, introduced their secondary collection, Marc by Marc Jacobs. It was established on the basis of providing a collection of comparatively affordable, edgy, and retro-inspired mass-market pieces. Since then, the collection has continued to grow exponentially to include Marc by Marc Jacobs shoes, Marc by Marc Jacobs handbags, Marc by Marc Jacobs jewelry, Marc by Marc Jacobs eyewear, Marc by Marc Jacobs hair accessories, and Marc by Marc Jacobs watches.
Each season, the Marc by Marc Jacobs collections are created with the aim of providing quality shoes, handbags, accessories, eyewear and watches with high fashion designs incorporating the signature quirkiness and unique sense of style that Marc by Marc Jacobs has come to be known for.

When I first saw it in stores, I immediately loved it. It goes well both with my color-block dresses and casual outfits. Color is unique, and uplifting. The metal parts are extremely stunning.

This bag is gorgeous and I got it for a great price on Zappos with super fast shipping. I do have a few reservations about it, but they are minor enough that I'd still want to keep the bag. I am comparing this bag to my other MBMJ bag which is the Classic Q Natasha. I absolutely adore the Natasha and consider it a benchmark against other MBMJ bags. Some minor cons: 1. The main compartment is smaller than I expected in that the zipper sits at least an inch lower than the top of the bag. This simply meant that it doesn't zip close when I place my iPad in it. 2. The logo is embossed on a leather patch which I'm concerned about it rubbing off during normal use should it rub against my side, leg, or others. This is unlike the Classic Q line with the metal plate logo. 3.The holes on the shoulder strap are not lined with metal grommets unlike the straps for the Classic Q bags. However, the holes for the handle are lined with metal grommets which I find functional and stylish. 4. I found the handles disproportionately too big for the bag, but the strap is the perfect length and is adjustable. Some really great features: 1.The end of the zipper has a magnet which connects with the purse for a cleaner line. 2.The metal attachment for the removable strap is partially wrapped in matching leather which I think helps dampen the clinking noise that metal on metal would make while walking. 3.Metal feet for those very rare occasions I'm forced to place my purse on the floor (gross!) As I mentioned, these are minor issues, but there are also plenty of great features. Some might find the cons to deal breakers. In which case, I recommend something from the Marc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q line. To address the too small compartment issue, I've decided to get the Too Hot to Handle tote as well which should be big enough to carry everything I'll need.

Oh I don't envy you there, I gave up for about a month and a half once, while I was working in a Bar/Restaurant/Cafe place. Untill I worked a Thurs night, double Fri, double Sat, Sun morning, and decided caffine was called for. I made one of my patented "stand a spoon up in it"(TM) triple expressos, and didn't stop shaking for about three days.A recent study has shown that caffine and TS doesn't mix very well, so I've decided to take a break from my geeky caffinated life in the name of science.
It's a sad day for me as I wash down my last cup of coffee for the next 2 months... so if you see me holding a cup of coffee or a coke... kick me in the balls please !
But good luck to you!

I first saw Dr. Pires at Cedars Sinai in Beverly Hills and now Im glad he has a practice here in Santa Barbara as we needed a quality pain physician in this area. My trips to either Cedars or UCLA to get my injections performed was a drag and now life is better! He is definitely not the cheapest around but is worth the difference. Highly Recommend.

thx alot it really helped me
So i wanted to start playing Quake, but FFA and other modes, well i didint like em that much.
I found Duel Lobbys, but they were often out of my skill leauge, so to play Duels in my own skill leauge i had to buy pro-subscription to play Duel agianst people in my skill range.
So now i bought it, and it takes over 15 minutes before a player joins my server, and its always the same story, total pwnage. Now i have a couple of problems.
1. It takes a long time to get the game started
2. 99% of the times the player is wayy out of my leauge and beats me even though ive set the lobby to be in my Skille leauge.
3. Well now when the player fragged me 10 times in 1 minute, i have no chance of winning, how the hell do i forfeit? If i set myself as spectator it makes myself Quit. And i dont want a bunch of Quits on my stats.
4. There is no rating system, so im making my own ELO system.
Thanks if you can help me fix these problems. Mabye im asking for much. But its making Quake booring to play.
Jens, use /forfeit when you're too far down and it's hopeless. You get a loss, but not a quit.
Also, check QLRanks.com for an Elo system for duel (they have TDM and CA too, but those don't really work well).
use the server filter "all populated" so it shows full servers, that you can still join as spec.
improve. There are dozens of tutorials and game commentary on youtube and on twitch, plus written guides.
Go to a german server, that is where u find the highest chance of someone joining the server.
Get a duel friends list(add people with whom u have close matches)
2. This was because u were tier 3, now u are tier 2, so u should be fine. First week i played duel i was ***** every game and i was playing 2-3 hours a day( \/ ).
3. \forfeit
4. Install qlprism and then with elo script u can see your opponents qlranks elo in-game.
valla el guia de queke live si me ayuda gracias
cuando empece quake live lei el guia de quake live y entendi mucho
Nice and helpful! But I strongly disagree on the LG weapon part, using strafes only to aim makes you super easy target (I'd recommend super minimal moves but still with mostly mouse and focus on dodging with strafes). Maybe

I tried to include a table (
) in my plugin description following the rules of HTML (using the link given on this site) but it doen't work. Even an example given on that page is not working here.
My question: is it allowed to use table formatting?? If yes how......
With rich text enabled, I can see my table formatting working, but in preview, it breaks and displays in a stack order.
|*.py or *.exe
The code:
I'm guessing the user options for Input Format is different for me and you. I checked the Administration panel to see if there were options that needed to be enabled. Ingo, or perhaps Michael, will be needed to check and allow those options. I don't have permission to enable that privilege. Perhaps establishing this option for "verified authors" would be ideal in this case, to help prevent abuse from spammers.
I emailed Ingo and directed him to this post.
I have now added the table tags to the set allowed by default, so you should be able to use them.
I'd rather not assign "Full HTML" privileges to everybody just for this case -- it allows a lot of things, such as scripting, which can be exploited too easily.
If you want to add cellpadding, etc., check out W3schools at:
As far as I know, as long as I check Full HTML for Input Format it works for me.

Traditional sources of funding may have retreated, but a range of new capital providers is rapidly taking their place for financing infrastructure
"When you have lending of more than 15 years, which can be
very important in the infrastructure sector, the availability
of finance from traditional sources of commercial banks
starts to disappear," says Gabriel Goldschmidt, senior
manager infrastructure investments in Latin America and
Caribbean at the Washington-based IFC.
As ever development institutions, export credit agencies
and capital markets are needed to fill the gap. "Funding

The Federal Aviation Administration announced a few months ago that air travelers would be able to operate most of their electronic toys throughout a flight, including takeoff and landing. I have a feeling that in 20 years we'll be laughing about the days when flight attendants yelled at us for playing Candy Crush at the wrong moments.
Last summer, at the age of 57, Cathy Rogers and her 59-year-old husband, Paul, rode their bikes 3,300 miles from Washington State to Washington, D.C. as part of the Big Ride Across America. The ride took 50 days and covered 85 miles a day. It was definitely a bucket list item.
At times, Italy can seem like a boot-shaped cliché: people gesticulating madly, yelling in what seems like a rage when in fact they are discussing last night's delicious lasagna. But there are things that might surprise you here. My top six.
Well-preserved 19th Century homes and commercial buildings dot the eight streets radiating from the ring road around Goderich's Courthouse Square, the octagon-shaped centre of the heritage district. For a throwback to the pre-Cineplex era, catch a movie at the Park Theatre on the square.
If you're looking for a fun and affordable vacation it's time to travel domestically and explore one of hotel comparison trivago.ca's 15 Best Value Canadian Cities for 2015. Based on the yearly average price of a standard double room and the destinations' overall hotel reputation on over 200 booking sites, trivago has revealed the home turf cities that are both budget friendly and worth a visit in 2015!
Tourists flock to Florence, Italy for good reason. It is a magnificent city! Filled with world class art, architecture, fabulous food and wine, millions stop by the city each year. Given that time and money are the precious commodities of traveling, knowing what to avoid in Florence can be as important as knowing what to see and do.
Autumn is an important time in the Italian region of Piedmont. Unlike the neighbouring region of Liguria with its plethora of coastal towns, Piedmont comes alive with activity in the colder months. There's one delicious thing at the centre of this energy: truffles. In particular, the White Alba truffle, which is available nowhere else in the world.
Most of the country experiences off-season in autumn, so now is the perfect time to take advantage of lower hotel prices before the holidays hit, and check out some fantastic destinations.
My friend is facing a retirement with absolutely no savings. She declared bankruptcy four years ago and still has another three years before she can start saving. The good news is that she moved to another part of the country, was able to find a new job and is slowly putting her life back together. Sadly, the financial devastation she experienced will seriously impact her ability to retire.
Ray has managed to turn her passion for travel into a pretty cool gig -- she's the global brand ambassador for Insight Vacations, which has numerous high-end properties in India and elsewhere -- and that's not by accident. Born and raised in Toronto, she has wanted to explore the world for as long as she can remember.
There are cemeteries, burial plots, museums, and memorials all over the world that honour our Canadian Forces. If you're travelling overseas, here are a few international sites where you can pay your respects on November 11 or any day of the year.
As these theme parks testify, your next family vacation doesn't have to be a series of long queues for the same old roller coasters, giant swings, or Ferris wheels.
Too many times people return from vacation having had a great time, but also being down on themselves due to letting unhealthy habits dominate. People tend to overeat, drink more, and skip their work outs. It sucks to get away only to return feeling worse physically and emotionally than when you left! My friend Em and I are living proof that you can go on a vacation that is both healthy AND fun!
While lost and damaged luggage is an unfortunate travel reality, it's getting easier to track down an errant bag half a world away and get it back to you -- relatively quickly. And if you've identified your bag well and have an inventory of the contents, luck may be in your favour. Use these tips to help ensure that even if your bags don't arrive with you, you'll be protected.
When you're bargaining in street markets, shaking hands, touching money, and using bathrooms sans soap and water, hand sanitizer is crucial, and you'll be using a lot of it. Unfortunately, this can be very drying on the skin since most are formulated entirely with ethyl alcohol. Nothing puts me off more than a sterile hospital smell and scaly hands. Luckily, there are alternatives.
Before you can begin to consider where best you might relocate overseas in retirement, you've got to get to know yourself better. What's important to you? What things would you miss from your current life if they weren't part of your new one?

The historic environment is addressed in chapter 12.
It is always best to consider any archaeological implications a
development could have as soon as possible. If there are any
problems, and this is realised at an early stage, it means there is
often still flexibility in design and layout.

Find out about the projects we have been involved with which
help to promote the archaeology of Northumberland.
Archaeological excavations in Berwick have shown that there are
deep, complex and relatively undisturbed medieval layers buried
under the town, some of which are waterlogged.
Waterlogged deposits are important because they preserve organic
material, like leather, seeds, bone and shell, that doesn't usually
survive under other ground conditions.
Because waterlogged deposits are vulnerable to changes in ground
conditions, for example through building schemes, the council was
commissioned by English Heritage (now Historic England) to look at
the distribution and significance of waterlogged deposits in the
town so they can be properly considered in the planning
Evidence from archaeological and borehole investigations were
used to make a model of the town's buried archaeology using a
geographic information system (GIS).
View a
copy of the project report here.
The Northumberland extensive urban survey is a study of 18
historic towns in the county.
It is part of a national survey to help local authorities,
Historic England and others to care for our towns and cities in the
future and to ensure that archaeological information is available
early in the development process.
The survey reports have been complied over a number of years and
will be kept under review to take into account recent discoveries,

Rock art is prehistoric rock carvings found on boulders and
rocky outcrops in parts of Britain and Ireland. They are an
important part of our historic environment and one of the more
mysterious and poorly understood aspects of our past. We know very
little about why the carvings and symbols were made and what it may
have meant to the people who created it.
Although stone is a relatively resilient material, water erosion
and changing temperatures make many carvings very fragile. In order
to record and conserve them the Northumberland and Durham Rock Art
Project was set up in 2004 to pilot the creation of a rock art
This archive has been made publicly accessible over the internet
and forms the basis of the first ever national rock art database –
England's Rock
The project developed a recording system which means that rock
art across the country can now be recorded in a standardised way.
This was achieved with the help of local groups and individuals and
funding from English Heritage.

England's Rock
Art incorporates the work from the Northumberland and Durham
Rock Art Project and the Newcastle University Beckensall
Archive Project. It is intended that similar recording projects
will eventually be undertaken for all areas of England which
contain rock art and the database will be updated as the records
become available.
Keys to the Past is
a Heritage Lottery Fund grant-aided project run jointly by
Northumberland and Durham County Councils.
It provides online access to a complete record of the

Keys to the Past is based on data held in the Northumberland and
Durham Historic Environment Records.

Central Oklahoma book lovers will have three opportunities to meet Pulitzer-Prize winning author Michael Chabon. Pioneer Library System (PLS) and PLS Foundation will host the celebrated novelist at a private reception and two public presentations. Chabon's visit is in conjunction with The Big Read, a community-wide effort to encourage reading.
Chabon will present two free public lectures on Thursday, March 26. At 10 am he will speak at Oklahoma Baptist University in the Geiger Center auditorium, 500 W. University St., Shawnee. Then, at 7 pm he will speak at the Sam Noble Museum of Natural History in Norman. Chabon will take questions and sign books at both events.
Chabon's bestsellers include The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, which won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2001,and Wonder Boys which became a critically acclaimed film starring Michael Douglas and Tobey McGuire. Chabon is also the author of two collections of short stories, a young adult novel, and numerous articles, essays and screenplays, including the 2012 film John Carter.
The novelist is coming to kick-off The Big Read, the award-winning PLS annual celebration of reading. For the 2015 one-book-one community event, library staff and patrons are exploring Ursula K. Le Guin's A Wizard of Earthsea. First published in 1968, Earthsea is arguably the most widely admired American fantasy novel of the past 50 years. The book's elegant diction, geographical sweep and mounting suspense are quite irresistible.
The Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest. Other sponsors of Pioneer Library System's The Big Read are Norman Arts Council, Anne and Henry Zarrow Foundation, and the Oklahoma Humanities Council.

When I was going through a bit of a heartbreak a little while ago, I said to a friend, 'Wow, this really hurts!' And he said to me, 'That just shows you what your capacity for loving is.' I would rather have my heart broken a thousand times than never to love at all. I have so much love to give—I'm not empty of love, I'm full of love." Cameron Diaz

NORWOOD The village is creating a battle plan to wipe out milfoil, an invasive aquatic plant that was discovered in Norwood Lake in September.
The infestation was first discovered by Frances K. McNierney, a St. Lawrence University undergraduate who surveyed area waterways for invasive species.
Eurasian water milfoil can choke out a lake, harming the habitat of native fish and making life difficult for the humans who enjoy the water.
Its nasty to swim in, and it can interfere with boat motor operation, said Clarkson University biology professor Michael R. Twiss.
Mr. Twiss is working with Norwood to come up with more ways to stop the problem before it gets worse. They will begin to measure how quickly the milfoil is spreading this spring.
Norwood Mayor James H. McFadden is working on a few plans to combat the invasive species. Come spring, volunteers in boats will take to the lake to harvest as much of the plant as they can.
Mr. Twiss said these well-intentioned efforts must be done carefully, or they may cause more harm than good. Harvesting the milfoil wont get rid of it forever.
You have to keep doing it, Mr. Twiss said.
The plant spreads by fragmentation, which means every broken piece left floating in the water can become a new weed. Well-meaning but careless harvesters can leave many fragments floating in the water. This makes the problem worse than before.
Harvesting is just one of the plans the village is pursuing.
Were addressing it in different ways, Mr. McFadden said.
One option is contacting Brookfield Power, which controls a dam upstream. Much of the milfoil can be killed by lowering the water level during the winter every few years. However, this will also kill native aquatic plants.
Some options remain out of Norwoods financial reach. Mechanical harvesting or sending professional divers to harvest the milfoil by hand are both valid methods, according to Mr. Twiss, but much too expensive for the village to consider.
One way to slow the spread of the plant is to educate those who use the lake. Signs will be posted urging people to inspect their boats before going out on the water, to keep any spare bits of milfoil from hitching a ride.
Eradicating the milfoil, or at least stopping its spread, is essential. The weed spreads quickly, and is almost impossible to remove once it takes over.
The north country has been struggling with milfoil for several years. Black Lake is almost completely overrun, despite numerous attempts to clear it that have been under way since 2007.
One lake that has had some success battling milfoil is Lake Bonaparte in the town of Diana, which has fought the infestation with milfoil weevils, tiny bugs that eat down through the core of the plant and kill it. The lake association each year adds weevil larvae, purchased through Cornell University, Ithaca.
Mr. McFadden said he wants to make sure the kind of infestation that has hit Black Lake doesnt happen to Norwood.
The villages vigilance may not be enough, however. Milfoil has been found in several other locations along the Raquette River, and will likely drift downstream.
If someone upstream is not controlling theirs, you arent controlling anything, Mr. Twiss said.
Mr. McFadden said he is well aware that the effort needs to involve many communities. He is working with the Raquette River Blueway Corridor Committee, an association of communities along the river, to combat the problem as a whole.
With the Raquette River Blueway Corridor Committee, well take care of the rest of it, he said.

Superior Court Judge James Downs has made his decision on Sugar Mountain annexation. The Norwood family tract was among the properties forcibly annexed.After months of consideration, Downs decided Sugar Mountain's actions were illegal. Additionally, he decided Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, the Tourism Development Authority and the Village Council were too closely intertwined. When the original case was presented in the Avery County Courthouse, the petitioning attorney alleged Gunther Jochl's involvement was a conflict of interest. Jochl, a village council member, operates Sugar Mountain Ski Resort. The petitioners will be reimbursed.
