"Stay out of the penalty box," Sharks defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic said after San Jose's morning skate. "Five or six out of their seven points are on the power play. That's a huge part of their game. They've got a lot of skill, even 5-on-5, but they've been doing a lot of good things on their power play and we've got to do a better job on our PK."
For the record, five of the seven points Henrik Sedin and Daniel Sedin combined for against San Jose have come on the power play, where they've used their passing, shooting and puck-handling skills to all but toy with the Sharks.
In Vancouver's 7-3 Game 2 win, Daniel scored two power-play goals. Henrik notched assists on both of his brother's power-play goals, as well as adding an assist on even-strength goal. Henrik scored the game-winning goal on the power play in Vancouver's 3-2 victory in Game 1 and had an even-strength assist.
"I think 5-on-5 we've done a pretty good job against them. They're going to have the puck. You can't do anything about that. They're good players. We can't take penalties like we did. The Sedins, 5-on-5, we're not going to change a thing." -- Niclas Wallin
"I think 5-on-5 we've done a pretty good job against them," Sharks defenseman Niclas Wallin said. "They're going to have the puck. You can't do anything about that. They're good players. We can't take penalties like we did. The Sedins, 5-on-5, we're not going to change a thing. We know what to do. If they start rolling around, you can't go out and charge at them. They're too good. They're going to roll off and create something from that, but I think 5-on-5 we've done a pretty good job."
During the regular season, Daniel led the NHL with 104 points, while Henrik was fourth with 94. But entering the conference finals, they faced plenty of criticism and scrutiny after two rough rounds in the playoffs. Daniel had a combined 10 points and Henrik 9 against Chicago and Nashville. In just two games against San Jose, Henrik already has 5 points and Daniel has 2.
"I know they've been taking some heat throughout the playoffs, but what they've done throughout their careers and looking at the past two seasons, I'm sure they're pretty confident, even though they've been taking some criticism," Murray said. "What do I know? I don't see into their heads. They're obviously great players. I've seen some of the other games. I think they've still created things and created problems for other teams. It takes five guys to defend against them."
As he did Thursday, defenseman Dan Boyle said the Sharks gave the Sedins "a little too much respect the first two games, way too much ice."
Vlasic agreed that the Sharks should turn up the heat on the Sedins in Game 3.
"We could close on them sooner," Vlasic said. "Of course they like the time and space going east-west with the puck. We could close on them earlier, be more physical, that's for sure."
When the Canucks do go on the power play, Wallin said, the Sharks need to tighten up their penalty kill, which was brilliant against the Red Wings.
"Obviously they're good passers," Wallin said of the Sedins. "We can't start running around, especially on PK. We've got to collapse. You go from there and go out. Right now, our last game in the end we started chasing guys to the net instead of being there and going out in lanes. They've got a guy wide open in the slot. That's a tough play, especially against them."

text: TheWeatherWarrior 5pts wow...they really sugar coated this didn't they. The problem with the Smart isn't the initial impact. If you watch the IIHS test you will see how it goes flailing all over the place. In traffic, that would likely mean that after an initial impact it would get thrown into another lane to be hit again, bounced and into another lane to be hit yet again. I wish I could find it, but someplace in Europe, such an accident occurred but rather than bouncing into traffic it bounced into a sidewalk cafe and injured (killed?) some patrons. No....Smarts are fun little engineering feats but NOT a safe vehicle at all.

Sorry, this item does not include a proof!
As I've always said, "necessity truly IS the mother of invention!" This time my creation came to life because I was tired of hearing my own voice and sounding like a nag...

I must say this new Custom Checklist has done wonders in my house already! My kids are really taking ownership of the daily tasks, most of which should just be part of their routine. Perhaps in time these things will become second nature (I hope!), but for now the Checklist is ideal. Everyone will use it differently and that's the beauty of it being custom-ized. You might leave a few lines blank since tasks will change as the seasons do (rake the leaves, shovel the snow, etc.)!
My twin "tweens" are motivated by allowance money, but their lists aren't really chores, more like daily hygiene and simple tasks. Soooo, we agreed to give them a reward if ALL the checks are completed, but THEY PAY US if they neglect something on the list. Ha! I hope you find this a helpful tool that creates a FUNctional Family in your home so you can "get it done and have some fun!"

<b>A regressive tax</b>
EDITOR: You supported SB 391, which imposes a $75 fee on the recording of real estate documents to finance housing projects previously funded by redevelopment ("Phantom income, taxes and politics," Editorial, Monday). Although affordable housing is needed in California, imposing a new fee on almost all real estate documents is wrong.
This is nothing more than a new tax that will drive up the cost of many transactions. The documents for which this $75 fee would be charged include "every real estate instrument, paper, or notice required or permitted by law to be recorded," except transfers subject to a documentary transfer tax. If you refinance, there would be at least $225 in new fees to record the deed of trust and a reconveyance of the prior deed of trust and for the lender to record a request for notice of default. The fee would be charged for quit claim deeds, homestead declarations, notices of completion, substitutions of trustees, notices of default and many other routine documents. Since the fee is the same regardless of the value of the property or loan involved in the transaction, it would be a greater burden on lower income persons.
The tax funds lost by the redevelopment agencies are still being received elsewhere. There is no reason why existing taxes cannot be used to fund affordable-housing projects.

A lot of listeners so it's code that's engineered to the minimum. It's the minimum standards. And what we bring as firefighters we bring the real life experience we have to -- in turn. Debate technical engineering aspects of of the building codes what we're trying to encourages. That line firefighters come up to the microphones in this what I see in real life to -- the building reacts. So how do you. You have to attend meetings and I guess you represented the you just -- information back or you actually vote or how does that work well only to early to. Entities that can vote those are government officials -- -- -- officials and fire officials they had the final vote. It's two step process there's -- code -- hearing which we just had recently in California. Which is a two week ordeal of go that -- it's an ordeal.

PP harvests/sells body parts
A new undercover video was released by the Center for Medical Progress, showing Planned Parenthood Federation of America's Senior Director of Medical Services, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, describing how America's largest abortion business allegedly uses the banned partial birth abortion procedure to harvest and sell the body parts of aborted children, including hearts, lungs, liver, and heads.
Pain Bill passes in Wisconsin
Washington, D.C – This afternoon the Wisconsin State Assembly passed the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The legislation previously passed the State Senate and now heads to the Governor's desk. In March, Gov. Scott Walker sent an open letter in firm support of the legislation, saying, "I will sign that bill when it gets to my desk and support similar legislation on the federal level. I was raised to believe in the sanctity of life and I will always fight to protect it."
Sen. Graham Announcement
"We need more people who put action behind their convictions," said SBA List president Marjorie Dannenfelser. "Senator Graham continually backs up his words with concrete action. He has been a true and consistent champion for life in the U.S. Senate and, thanks to his strategic leadership, we are closer than ever before to getting every Senator on record when it comes to protecting innocent children after the fifth month of pregnancy."
House Passes H.R. 36
"Politics thrives on moments of clarity," said SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. "This legislation to protect the most innocent among us is an opportunity for clarity heading into the 2016 elections. Protecting pain-capable babies and mothers at risk during a late-term abortion is a winning issue and one that has unified the entire Republican presidential field. Where does Hillary Clinton stand?"
SBA List Says Rand is Right
"While every potential Republican nominee is on record, potential Democratic candidates such as Hillary Clinton are silent. Do they support this compassionate, common sense limit on abortion or do they stand by the Democratic Party platform: abortion on-demand, up until the moment of birth, paid for by taxpayers?" -- Marjorie Dannenfelser

No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book is unlike anything I have read before or since - a post-apocalyptic vision of a primitive culture with half lost folk memories of earlier civilisation, written in a consistent imaginary language strongly rooted in modern English but evolved and degraded. The plot follows the eponymous Walker on a trek around Kent, exploring the nature of myth and religion. Unforgettable.
I re-read this book, which I first read in Britain twenty-five years before, at the same time as I was re-reading William Golding's The Inheritors, both of which I decided to re-read after reading Ronald Wright's A Short History of Progress. That's because, taken together they form a set of bookends around the long march of human aggression and stupidity, from its (imagined) earliest beginnings to its (potentially) last stages. Not much hope there, at either end. The awareness of our dark nature that authors like these can so vividly provide us hasn't saved us from ourselves yet. On the other hand, we haven't gone under for the last time yet, either.
I started this book prepared for it to be difficult to get to grips with, because that's what most of the reviews say. The broken and twisted English, the mutated grammar and future-slang, all adding to the appeal of the story, but hard to wade through. That's not what I found, though.
Maybe it's exposure to text-spelling, Twitter-speak and Facebook-English, but I found the language of the book fell into place fairly quickly and naturally. That's not to say that there weren't words and phrases that I had to pause on and mull over, but that's part of the book's charm. I hope that nobody would be put off reading Hoban's amazing story by concerns over the language in which it's written.
The story comes from the science-fiction staple of the post-apocalyptic, nuclear-war-ravaged future, with people struggling to survive at an Iron Age level of technology, whilst surrounded by the ruins and shattered artifacts of the "advanced" civilization that destroyed itself. But it mixes into that Celtic mythology, English folklore, Christian iconography, and a jumbled, incomplete and incomprehensible science. The narrative is allusive and there are lots of double meanings that reward the reader's time in mulling over.
This is one of the best books I've read in a long time.
RW follows in the tradition of SF masterpieces to the extent that it starts off as a seemingly innocuous story that eventually becomes something very different and unsettling. Think Dick's The Man in the High Castle. Unfortunately the brilliance of its language and world do not conceal the shortcomings of the story. Though perhaps this is just the opinion of someone who has only read it once. This is a book that deserves multiple revisits and much thought. There are many passages that offer as much depth and complexity as anything you'll ever hope to read.
Russell Hoban's 1980 post-apocalyptic masterpiece Riddley Walker was a book handed to me with the words, "It's a little difficult, but you'll enjoy it." Half right. Hoban's book follows the adventures of the eponymous Walker, a twelve year-old boy who has just passed his "Naming Day," thus becoming a man. He lives in a world that has self-destructed in a conflagration that the survivors call "the 1 Big 1," the nuclear apocalypse with which our generation continually seems to flirt. This is not, however, a tale of the few stragglers suffering through fallout and nuclear winter so familiar from dozens of films covering similar territory; rather, much like Walter Miller Jr.'s excellent novel, A Canticle for Leibowitz, the story is set ages past the event, over 2000 years in this case.
Humanity has devolved, culture appearing only in the form of a travelling puppet show which serves as entertainment, education, and political propaganda all at the same time. Hoban cleverly echoes this devolution linguistically. The story is set in southeastern England, in and around Canterbury, and the language the characters speak has its roots in English; however, like humanity in general (in which society has been reduced to individuals struggling to survive), the language has devolved to individual phonemes, with complex words often broken up into smaller units (surprise = sir prize, Canterbury = Cambry), most still recognizable, but many requiring a bit of work to decipher. That said, Hoban's work is much easier to understand if you read it aloud – often, hearing the words gives you the phonetic equivalent, and when that doesn't work, context helps quite a bit as well. This was the "It's a little difficult" that my friend referred to, but to be perfectly honest, the language contains an inner logic that makes it fairly easy to comprehend, once you get a couple of chapters into the book. And if you've already tackled Finnegans Wake or A Clockwork Orange, you're well-armed to make the attempt.
The beginning of the story finds Walker becoming his village's "connexion man," a position vacated when his father dies in an accident. This requires him to make pseudo-mystical comments about the travelling puppet show I mentioned earlier, a show that travels from town to town and presented by two "Eusa men," representatives of what stands for a government in this rather ephemeral society. His comments are intended to provide wisdom to his fellow villagers; however, Walker experiences a truly mystical vision, which frightens everyone around him – and ultimately, leads (amongst other things) to Walker leaving his village entirely. Once Walker leaves his home, he becomes "dog frendy" (dogs, not terribly impressed with our tendency to self-destruct, have finally given up on humanity – except as tasty hors d'oeuvres), and works towards finding the secret of the "1 Big 1." What he ends up stumbling upon is something a little less destructive, but altogether just as dangerous within the context of a world that largely relies on sticks and stones (and brute strength).
I shan't give more details than that – read this book, it's well worth the effort and the time. The edition I read is a new expanded version, which includes notes from Hoban, a couple of drawings he's done in relation to the novel, and a brief glossary. Well worth the price.
Steve's Grade: A-
Riddley Walker is an amazing tour-de-force, portraying a fascinating (and frightening) vision of a world set two millenia after a nuclear holocaust. Fans of science-fiction, literature, and linguistics should not miss, but be prepared – it is not an easy read.

I bought those ball less mouse ( not cordless ) that work with laser light and track its movement. Now, my mouse clicks demonstrate irregular. When I only click once, it actually clicked two or three times. So whenever I read emails, compose mails, I'm seeing double or triple sections going on. I clicked once to close a tab in Moz and it managed to close a few more tabs. :
I can't drag and highlight anything. It will jump around all crazy.
It also have that problem in Windows ( different mouse but the same model ). Here is my setting under XF86Config-4.

It is shy of 9 a.m. on America's customary day to sleep in. Dozens of soccer die-hards shuffle into Chatham Tap on Massachusetts Avenue for the week's signature match, the collective anticipation akin to something you'd expect to find in Manchester, England, but not Central Indiana.

EGNOS launch in Kourou : a nicely wrapped satellite ready to fly away ... Julkaistu: 19/03/2014, Viimeisin päivitys: 25/06/2015
On Friday March 21st, a replenishment satellite for the EGNOS Satellite-based augmentation System (SBAS) constellation will be launched from the European Space Port of Kourou.
The launch window will open at 22.05 (UTC) and close at 23.14 (UTC).
The satellite, named ASTRA 5B, is co-hosting different payloads, amongst which the EGNOS GEO-2 (picture © ASTRIUM).
GEO-2 is a replacement satellite for the EGNOS constellation, and will ensure the continuity of the EGNOS services above Europe for another 15 years. It is equipped with new generation transponders, which will improve the navigation services above Europe. Together with the previous replenishment (SES 5), GEO-2 will support the new EGNOS generation (EGNOS V3) which provides dual-frequency signals on band L1 and L5.
EGNOS is owned by the European Commission and was launched in 2009 to be part of the Galileo global satellite navigation system. The European Space Agency designed EGNOS under a delegation agreement with the Commission.
EGNOS is the first pan-European satellite navigation system. Similar services are provided in North America by the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), in Japan by the Multifunctional Satellite Augmentation System (MSAS) and in India by the GAGAN System. Other similar Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) are under study or development in other regions of the world.
As from January 1st, 2014, EGNOS is operated by the European GNSS Agency (GSA) based in Prague.

15 Hilarious Halloween Costumes for Pun-Lovers
For a large group of trick-or-treaters and Halloween partiers each year, stumping fellow fiends with their amusingly tongue-in-cheek costume is even better than candy. From pop culture icons (like Miley and her wrecking ball) to '90s movie classics (like Ace Ventura: Pet Detective), there's always at least one costumed comedian at the Halloween party dying to see how many people "get" their oh-so-clever disguise.
My fave funny costumes are the ones based on puns. Each year I see more brilliant costume ideas than the year before. Below you'll find 15 of the best punny costumes on the interwebz (as judged by me). And the best part is many of these costumes can be whipped up with stuff you have lying around, or with a quick trip to your local craft store.

This spring's newly admitted students program, Dimensions of Dartmouth, will offer three dates for prospective students to visit campus rather than one, and enrolled students will not pose as prospective members of the Class of 2018, dean of admissions and financial aid Maria Laskaris said. In previous years, students performing in the Dimensions show pretended to be high school students at the start of the program to facilitate social interactions. They revealed themselves as current students during the Dimensions show.
Laskaris said that she has not made any specific changes to the program because of the protest at last year's Dimensions show, during which members of the campus group Real Talk Dartmouth, holding signs highlighting discriminatory acts at the College, took the stage shouting "Dartmouth has a problem."
The protest and the response it engendered — which consisted of vitriolic threats and comments posted anonymously on Bored at Baker — prompted administrators to cancel classes for a day of reflection and discussion.
"Student protest around important issues has long been associated with the college experience," Laskaris said in an email. "Finding one's voice and passion is part of that process and something we expect to happen at Dartmouth. If, like last year, this year's Dimensions program is interrupted, our primary concern will be for the safety of both our visitors and community members."
The Dimensions program should emphasize authentic interaction between prospective students and current students and faculty, which is hindered by the practice of having fake prospective students, Laskaris said.
"I just can't overstate the importance of being genuine and welcoming," she said. "That doesn't include students pretending to be people they aren't."
Matt Krantz '16, who performed in the Dimensions show last year and attended as a prospective student, said he was upset by the decision.
While he said he was "heartbroken" when, as a prospective student, he saw the show and realized his new friends were not fellow prospective students, he was happy that he could spend his next three years with the upperclassmen friends he had already met.
That current freshmen commit so much time to prospective students, he said, is unique.
"I really think it shows how much people love and care for this place," he said. "I think the admissions office is trying to fix something that isn't broken."
James Howe '17, who applied to be a member of this year's Dimensions crew and watched last year's performance online, said he believes the fake prospective students make Dartmouth's accepted student program more memorable than those of other schools. While it may be deceptive, the reveal is surprising and fun.
Raphael Sacks '17, who also applied to be in the show, said he hopes to have the opportunity to be a "fake prospie," but understands the decision to cancel the program.
"I think part of the reason people choose Dartmouth is because doing wacky things and wearing flair is part of the experience," he said. "But on the other hand, it's deceptive, and even if it's meant to be in good fun, people might feel they are being treated in a condescending way."
Unlike in previous years, this year's program will be offered in three separate sessions, two one-day sessions on April 11 and April 16, and a longer program April 24 to 25. The Dimensions show will take place at the third session.
Offering two programs earlier in the month will hopefully allow more students make it to campus, Laskaris said. With fewer students and families visiting at a time, she said, the College can provide a better experience for each prospective student.
Considering the size of last year's audience, and the fact that students were turned away, this year's Dimensions show will be held twice. The performance will take place in Collis Common Ground instead of the Class of 1953 Commons because of its higher capacity.
Emily Leach '16, who performed in last year's show and is now the co-director of this year's performance, or the "Dimensions Mom," said she appreciates the new setting.
"We don't want to have the performance in an auditorium, like Spaulding," Leach said. "The show isn't a performance, it's an experience."
Co-director Garrett Watumull '16 declined to comment.
The show features songs set to popular music describing various parts of Dartmouth's culture, including dining and social life.
Leach said that there will be little changed in the planned content for the performance this year. The co-directors solicited Dimensions crew applications from a diverse group of students, as they have done in the past, she said.
"We have the applications in now, and I think there are going to be people from all different parts of campus," Leach said. "If people didn't feel last year that their voices were being recognized by Dimensions, that's a problem."
Decisions about changing the program's content are left to the incoming crew members, Leach said.
Howe said he thought that last year's Dimensions program accurately represented his positive experience at the College.
The co-directors, in coordination with the admissions department, are also considering hosting a talk about participants' "real Dartmouth experiences" the day after the shows, Leach said. The talk would not have a negative tone, she said, but would discuss how the campus climate is changing.
"Unlike the protest, this might inspire people to come here and be a part of the change," Leach said. "We want to take what happened with the protest and turn it into meaningful discussion."

text: Xbox Live ban provokes class-action lawsuit Gaming 23 November 09 by Katie Scott http://www.flickr.com/photos/dominic-hallau_de/69497409/Flickr CC: Dominic Hallau An American company is taking on Microsoft over its decision to ban some Xbox 360 owners from Xbox Live.Texas law company Abingdon IP is calling on disgruntled gamers to join a class-action suit against Microsoft, which has banned some people from its online network for modifying their consoles to play pirated games. As many as 600,000 accounts have been disabled around the world.Abingdon IP claims that the ban is unlawful. It told TG Daily that it believes Microsoft is obtaining information from consoles illegally, but also timed its ban "to avoid putting people off signing up for Xbox Live so they could play the recent Halo and Call of Duty blockbusters online".It says that if Microsoft had carried out the ban before these releases, sales of both games and online sign-ups would have been affected.When it announced the ban, Microsoft said: "All consumers should know that piracy is illegal and that modifying their Xbox 360 console to play pirated discs violates the Xbox Live terms of use will void their warranty and result in a ban from Xbox Live."Abingdon IP is now urging Xbox 360 owners to sign up to a proposed class-action lawsuit. It is specifically seeking gamers who have been banned but have not received the remaining part of their subscription fee back from Microsoft. Edited by Holden Frith Comments Being a fairly rubbish consumer myself, I'd imagine the EULA (that no one reads) will state somewhere when you sign up to Xbox Live that Microsoft will make periodic checks to ensure you are using a legitimate machine, so I can't see how these lawyers can consider this an invasion of privacy or whatever. "Obtaining information from consoles illegally" also seems an odd accusation, I'd imagine when you sign onto Xbox Live, your machine sends a little connection string with a whole bunch of IDs and so on (just like a web browser when initiate a connection to a website) Daniel H Nov 23rd 2009 Signing off on the EULA does not make Microsoft's actions necessarily legal. The fourth amendment (which even less people read) overrides illegal violations of privacy. Mike Nov 23rd 2009 It states clearly in the TOS that access to Xbox Live is allowed on certain circumstances being met, one of which is a legitimate, un modified Xbox. Gamers are given several pportunites and irected to read the EULA several times before sigining onto a Live account, not reading them hold no water in this suite.It looks like the compnay are simply in it to extract as many court fees as possible. Michael Nov 24th 2009 I've been repairing consoles for a number of years now- you know the ones that have the 1, 2 or 3 red rings on them and then letting family and friends have them. These Consoles may have been modified once but were not after the repairs I performed and used legitimately. Then one day bang every single one barred. MS is loosing sight of the second user market here which is substantial given the poor quality of the original design. I surprised it's only 600,000. Like I said mine were definately not moddedat the time and couldn't run copied games. Good luck law suit. Graeme Moorby Nov 24th 2009 Whislt the EULA is signed and piracy is illegal, is it any wonder people want to backup there games sometimes legitimately when the 360 is notorious for scratching discs beyond repair, then you have to pay Microsoft £10 for the privelage of getting another copy if your lucky!

Should I Be Mad? Vent :s
Uh, NO WAY... She would not get away with that, if she was dealing with me... I'd have my unhappy ass at her house, with the boxes of diapers in my hand, before she was able to walk in her door!! Unacceptable. Take your husband with you, just in case it pushes her "round two of bitch" button.
All right, if she wanted to play the "I'm not giving them back" card, I'd play the "I'm calling the police, and reporting that you stole $100 worth of diapers from me" card... And, I'd totally follow through.
Some people will always walk all over others, unless you teach them a lesson.
Becky, momma Queen in a houseful of princes
I'd call the cops on her. She just stole 50 bucks worth of christmas gifts from your children.
Yall are nice. I wouldn't bother going to her house at all. I'd start with the cops and there would be no warning. lol

WOW. Some "friend". I would be pissed. If that was me, the friendship would be over. Hope it was worth stealing some diapers from you.......jeez.

M.Sc. Thesis
A framework for semantically verifying schema mappings for data exchange
We propose a framework for semi-automatically verifying relational database schema mappings for data exchange. Schema mappings for data exchange formally describe how to move data between a source and target database. State-of-the-art schema mapping tools propose several mappings, but require user intervention to determine their semantic correctness. For this, the user must understand the domain the schemas represent and the meanings of individual schema elements in relation to the domain. Our framework eases the task of understanding the domain and schemas and performs preliminary mapping verification. We use a readable, expressive, and formal conceptual model - a domain ontology - to model the source and target schema domain. We model the schema semantics by annotating schema elements with ontology elements. Our mapping verification algorithm rewrites mappings as statements in terms of the ontology, and uses a reasoner to check that the statements are entailed by the ontology.

Labor chief asks 'for forgiveness'
Oklahoma City police officials have launched an investigation into whether state Labor Commissioner Lloyd Fields was given special treatment by a police officer, The Oklahoman has learned.
Meanwhile, Fields issued a public apology Tuesday for "an incident" in which he was taken to Oklahoma City's detox center after he was suspected of stealing a professional bull rider's guitar at a party. "I acknowledge an incident occurred last Saturday night, however, it was simply a misunderstanding of a practical joke among friends gone bad," Fields said in a brief statement. "I am embarrassed about the incident and take full responsibility. I apologize for my actions and ask for forgiveness." Fields allegedly was drunk when he was detained by Oklahoma City police, but he was not arrested or charged. Police did not fill out an incident report. Instead, he was taken to an Oklahoma City detox center. An official initially told The Oklahoman on Monday that Fields was kept the standard 10 hours before being released. However, the official said Tuesday that Fields was only kept 4½ hours before being released to the custody of an Oklahoma City police officer. Police have provided some information about the incident, but repeatedly have refused to identify Fields as the person detained and taken to the detox center. Oklahoma City Police Chief Bill Citty contends state law prohibits police from identifying individuals who have not been "technically arrested." Citty still did not discuss Fields by name Tuesday, but said the police department has opened a "personnel investigation" into an incident at the detox center last weekend where an officer checked somebody out early or signed to allow somebody to be released early. "We don't want our officers doing anything inappropriately or giving some special treatment. We're going to look into it, absolutely," Citty said. Some people also have questioned whether Fields was given special treatment when he was taken to the detox center rather than jail, but Citty said police were not investigating the initial decision to take the detainee to the detox center. Fields did not return telephone calls Monday and Tuesday.

The Oklahoman e-mailed Fields the following questions, but received no response by 6:30 p.m.: 1) Could you please tell us what happened Saturday night that led up to your being detained and taken to the detox center? 2) What was the joke you referred to in your statement? 3) Were you trying to steal the guitar, and if not, what were you doing with it? 4) Do you consider yourself to have been drunk that night? 5) When they tested you, what was your blood-alcohol level? 6) Some people have suggested you should resign over the incident. Do you plan to resign? 7) Do you believe you are an alcoholic or problem drinker? 8) If so, do you plan to seek treatment for your drinking problem? 9) What would you like to say to the people who elected you about the incident?

Udall Encouraged by FTC Action to Protect Athletes from Deceptive Anti-Concussion Marketing
WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Tom Udall joined Commerce Committee Chairman John D. (Jay) Rockefeller IV today to commend the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for sending warning letters to eighteen sports equipment manufacturers for the way they market their products' ability to reduce the risk of concussions and for reaching a settlement with Brain-Pad, a mouth guard manufacturer. In 2011, the Commerce Committee held a hearing on Brain-Pad and other sports equipment manufacturers which showed that many of these companies' claims about reducing the risk of concussions were not supported by any scientific evidence.
"I am pleased the FTC is acting against misleading claims that put children at greater risk of brain injury," said Udall. "It's dangerous for equipment makers to take advantage of the rising awareness of sports concussions with advertising that doesn't match the medical facts. I thank Chairman Leibowitz and the FTC for their hard work investigating this serious issue. Cases like this underscore the need for Congress to approve my legislation, the Children's Sports Athletic Equipment Safety Act, that will increase the penalties for false claims that put youth at risk."
"I am encouraged that the FTC has voted to approve its settlement with a sports equipment manufacturer that allegedly deceived consumers about its product's ability to reduce the risk of concussions," said Rockefeller. "This settlement bars the manufacturer from making any of these claims moving forward and will help ensure that athletes and coaches have the best science available to make informed decisions on preventing and treating concussions. The FTC is right to continue to protect athletes by sending warning letters to other sports equipment manufacturers likely engaged in marketing that is not supported by science."
Last year, the Senate Commerce Committee held a hearing to examine the marketing claims related to concussions that sports equipment manufacturers have made and the impact this marketing has on youth athletes, parents, and coaches. Witnesses at the hearing testified that sports equipment manufacturers have repeatedly made claims that their equipment "prevent concussions" or "reduce the risk of concussions" without scientific evidence to prove them. Witnesses also testified that concussion-related marketing has led to a public that misunderstands the limitations of sports equipment. The marketing claims of Brain-Pad were examined at the hearing.

Something else we all need to remeber when making comparisons around the globe with UK prices - you need to take off the VAT to obtain the true price. VAT is charged at 20% on the NETT price. (ie. £nett x 20%)
To remove the VAT the calculation is easy (note: you cant just subtract 20% from the total inclusive price, you'll get the wrong answer) - divide any VAT inclusive price by 1.2 = eg, our current price for 1 roll FP4 120 is £3.48 = £2.90 excluding VAT, the actual price we are selling the item for.

This Hip2Save.com Deal was hand-posted on Thursday, November 15th, 2012 at 6:07 pm.
Here's an opportunity to snag a FREE sample of Arm & Hammer Sensitive Toothpaste… you'll need to copy and paste this link ( http://freeahsensitive.com/ ) to get to the correct page to fill in the sample form. Keep in mind that you will receive a confirmation email and will need to click on the link to confirm your sample request.
I'm not sure if this will work again if you've already requested before. Let us know!
(Thanks, Clip & Follow!)
23 Hip Readers Commented
It does not work if its already been requested…
while at the store grocery shopping i saw the arm and hammer toothpaste,good price and i had a coupon,bought it,used it,had a disgusted look on my face and spit it back out.the worst ever lol
I felt the same way the first time I tried my sister's tube! But it's an acquired refreshing taste
It gave me a thank you a confirmation email has been sent please click on the link to verify your address
I've never received Arm & Hammer samples that I've requested. Anyone else run into that?
I was just about to comment the same thing! I had completely forgotten until I saw this post, but I requested and never received the last sample either :(
I have that issue too!
uh oh… i just put my info in, but now i'm wondering if this is a scam… i did a google search for the website Collin listed, and it's been popping up on the freebie sites for what looks like a few months… anyone have experience with this one before?
I received mine. I don't know why some people get stuff and other people don't.
The sample is reset!!!!!!!!!!!!!
worked for me….YEAH !!!
I received my sample about a month ago, I think. It will not let me request another.
Not able to get it.
None left:(
It told me I already requested it but never have.
Got it! Thanks Collin!
I've received samples from them in the past, not eligible to sign up for this one since my email is on file.
Wouldn't let me get one again either. I did receive my sample, but it seems like a long time ago.
I received an email from them with my email address as the address it was sent from. I stupidly clicked on the link then realized it was from my own email address. I'm pretty sure it's a scam
Got one thank you!
After reading through the comments I checked my SPAM folder since I had not received my email confirmation and sure enough there was an email from myself with the subject: Arm & Hammer – Email Confirmation. Why would it have my email address as the sent from address? Does anyone know if this is some sort of scam???
The pictures and all verbiage on the "freebie" are not endorsed by Arm and Hammer; just look for a legal byline. There aren't any. Unless someone knows where the link originated on the Arm & Hammer website then, yes, this IS a scam that has merely been pasted all over the internet. The people here who are claiming to have received their samples are likely the scammers themselves.

Crossing Bok Chitto
(2006) - Cinco Puntos Publishing
In a picture book that highlights rarely discussed intersections between Native Americans in the South and African Americans in bondage, a noted Choctaw storyteller and Cherokee artist join forces with stirring results. Set in the days before the War Between the States, in the days before the Trail of Tears, and told in the lulling rhythms of oral history, the tale opens with a Mississippi Choctaw girl who strays across the Bok Chitto River into the world of Southern plantations, where she befriends a slave boy and
The New York Times
Crossing Bok Chitto, by Tim Tingle, a story teller and folklorist, tells a tale with a happier ending, but its journey is no less a departure from the narrative of American uplift. In Mississippi, a Choctaw girl and a black slave boy join forces when his mother is sold: he knows how to become invisible to whites, she knows how to cross the river to escape them. They do not go north, to be with the enlightened white abolitionists. Instead, his family disappears into the fog - illustrated with a symbolic, almost Japanese simplicity, by Jeanne Rorex Bridges - and out of American bondage.
In stories or in life, trouble comes, Tingle writes; in literature for children, this is a lesson as old as the Grimms. But these realities cut deeper than any fantasy. Even young children recognize the Wicked Stepmother as an archetype. Will the children who read these books recognize the white people in them as the white people in their lives or in their own families?
- August 31, 2006
Tingle's first children's illustrated title, with paintings by Cherokee artist Jeanne Rorex-Bridges. For elementary-age students through adults, this story----a gripping tale of innocence and escape----reveals the seldom-discussed friendship between many Southeastern Indians and those held in bondage.

Publisher's Weekly
Bridges, a Cherokee artist making her childrens book debut, joins Tingle (Walking the Choctaw Road) in a moving and wholly original story about the intersection of cultures. The river Bok Chitto divides the Choctaw nation from the plantations of Mississippi. If a slave escaped and made his way across Bok Chitto, the slave was free, writes Tingle. The slave owner could not follow. That was the law. But Bok Chitto holds a secret: a rock pathway that lies just below the surface of the water. Only the Choctaws knew it was there, for the Choctaws had built it, Tingle explains. When a slave boy and his family are befriended by a Choctaw girl, the pathway becomes part of an ingenious plan that enables the slaves to cross the river to freedom-in plain view of a band of slave hunters during a full moon.
Bridges creates mural-like paintings with a rock-solid spirituality and stripped-down graphic sensibility, the ideal match for the down-to-earth cadences and poetic drama of the text. Many of the illustrations serve essentially as portraits, and theyre utterly mesmerizing-strong, solid figures gaze squarely out of the frame, beseeching readers to listen, empathize and wonder.

Midwest Book Review
A celebration of diversity, acceptance, and unity.
Crossing Bok Chitto: A Choctaw Tale Of Friendship And Freedom, by Tim Tingle and featuring illustrations by Jeanne Rorex Bridges is the inspiring tale of Martha Tom, a young Choctaw girl. Following Martha Tom through her pursuit of blackberries in the deep forest, Crossing Bok Chitto will captivate young readers with vivid and colorful pictures as the young Native American girl stumbles upon a forbidden slave church and befriends one of its members. A welcome addition to school and community library picturebook collections, Crossing Bok Chitto is very highly recommended for all young readers as a celebration of diversity, acceptance, and unity in a remarkable production of expert authorship and invaluable illustrations.

Children's Literature
Bok Chitto is the river that cuts through Mississippi and serves as the boundary between the Choctaw Indian nation and the plantation owners and their slaves. Martha Tom, a Choctaw girl, is sent to pick blackberries. Her quest for blackberries leads her to cross Bok Chitto. She knows of a stone path just beneath the river's surface. As she discovers blackberries, she also discovers another people living in the woods--the slaves. Little Mo, a slave boy, leads Martha Tom back to the river and learns of her stone path; the two become good friends. When Little Mo's mother is sold and the family fears separation, Little Mo realizes he can help by using the stone path that Martha Tom has shown him. The other Choctaw Indians help lead Little Mo's family across Bok Chitto and keep the guards away by appearing as ghosts.
Tim Tingle, a member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, tells a very moving story about friends helping each other and reveals a lesser-known part of American History: Native Americans helped runaway slaves. The muted and soft illustrations done by Jeanne Rorex Bridges, a Cherokee ancestor, fit the story's time and place, particularly the river's muddiness. The notes at the end also provide useful information to learn more about the Native Americans in history and the background of the story. While, this is a picture book; it would make a wonderful read-aloud for middle elementary students.
School Library Journal
Dramatic, quiet, and warming, this is a story of friendship across cultures in 1800s Mississippi. While searching for blackberries, Martha Tom, a young Choctaw, breaks her village's rules against crossing the Bok Chitto. She meets and becomes friends with the slaves on the plantation on the other side of the river, and later helps a family escape across it to freedom when they hear that the mother is to be sold.
Tingle is a performing storyteller, and his text has the rhythm and grace of that oral tradition. It will be easily and effectively read aloud. The paintings are dark and solemn, and the artist has done a wonderful job of depicting all of the characters as individuals, with many of them looking out of the page right at readers. The layout is well designed for groups as the images are large and easily seen from a distance. There is a note on modern Choctaw culture, and one on the development of this particular work. This is a lovely story, beautifully illustrated
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
Choctaw storyteller Tingle draws on bits and pieces of songs, traditional stories, and local histories to craft this legend of Native Americans helping African-Americans slaves to freedom. Martha Tom, a Choctaw girl, lives by the banks of Bok Chitto, a river in Mississippi that separates plantation land from Choctaw territory. If a slave can cross Bok Chitto, he or she is free by law, and the slave owner cannot follow. Disobeying her mothers rule not to cross the river, Martha Tom traverses via a subsurface stone path and on the other side comes across a forbidden slave church meeting where she meets and befriends Little Mo, a boy who helps her find her way back to the river. Bonds between Martha Tom and Little Mo grow as Martha Tom attends the slave church services, and when Little Mos mother is sold, Little Mo enlists aid from the Choctaw. When the Choctaw women, carrying candles and wearing their white wedding dresses, step into the river, their angelic appearance causes the slave-hunters to held their fire as they watch Little Mos family walk, apparently on the water itself, to freedom.
Native artist Jeanne Rorex Bridges tranquil images of sienna-hued landscapes and people are imbued with an ethereal serenity undergirded by a fierce determination. She reveals character and emotional quality through full-frontal portraits that beckon readers to empathize through their imploring expressions.
Although the story has a legendary quality, young readers will appreciate the explanation of the reality, both in words and pictures, behind what appeared to the white folk as a mystical event. A brief note on the contemporary Choctaw nation and a longer one on Choctaw storytelling follow the text.
Multicultural Review
"Crossing Bok Chitto is an awesome story of survival, generosity, courage, kindness and love; enhanced by Jeanne Rorex Bridges luminous acrylic on watercolor board paintings on a subdued palette of mostly browns and greens."
his family. When trouble comes, the desperate runaways flee to freedom, helped by their own fierce desire (which renders them invisible to their pursuers) and by the Choctaws secret route across the river.
In her first paintings for a picture book, Bridges conveys the humanity and resilience of both peoples in forceful acrylics, frequently centering on dignified figures standing erect before moody landscapes.
Sophisticated endnotes about Choctaw history and storytelling traditions dont clarify whether Tingles tale is original or retold, but this oversight wont affect the storys powerful impact on young readers, especially when presented alongside existing slave-escape fantasies such as Virginia Hamiltonss /The People Could Fly /(2004) and Julius Lesters /The Old African /(2005).

Temporarily Out Of Stock
Item # DMA0062
Don't get too bummed. This item is on the way and will be available for purchase as soon as it rolls into the warehouse.
Can't wait? Consider one of the other Men's Jackets we have in stock.
De Marchi Contour Racing 3L Jacket $0.00
Keeping your torso warm is imperative if you aim to log serious miles in the winter. The reason is entirely physiological. If your core gets too cold (along with your head we might add) your body constricts capillaries, leading to cold hands and feet -- happy digits are connected to a warm body. The key to the effectiveness of the De Marchi Contour Racing 3L Jacket is its windproof material.
It uses De Marchi's three layer Thermashield fabric. It's a laminated combination of a stretchy outer mesh, a water-resistant, windproof, breathable membrane in the middle, and a waffled hydrophobic microfiber lining. The result is luxurious warmth even in biting winter weather. The windproof front panels give you all the protection you'll need. This is complemented by ThermoRoubaix HT panels in the back and underneath the arms. The brushed inside finish is super soft, and its permeable nature lets out excess body heat as you ride. The individual fibers are hollow. This is what gives ThermoRoubaix HT its cozy warmth without being heavy or bulky.
Since De Marchi calls this a racing jacket, it wouldn't be complete without three pockets on the back for your essentials. However, they do also include a fourth, zippered pocket to stash important items like keys, cards, and cash. As with all of their Contour apparel items, De Marchi gives this a form following cut. It will bend naturally with your arms and torso as you reach for the drops to explore your mid-winter flexibility. It has a full length zipper with a draft shield built in behind it. This ensures that you won't get a chill through the zipper, and it makes one-handed adjustment easy and snag-free. There's a zipper dock at the top to ensure you won't get pinched, and when you're charging into a block headwind, the 5cm collar is tall enough to seal out the chill.
The De Marchi Contour Racing 3L Jacket comes in Black and Red and is available in five sizes from Small to XX-Large. There are reflective elements on the back pocket zipper and at the outside pocket seams.
- Three rear pockets provide plenty of storage for your wintry essentials
- Triple-layer construction ensures high performance
- Zippered media pocket keeps your tunes cranked

Fabulous if you can wear it
Awesome design and quality Italian craftsmanship -- just didn't fit me. At 5'7"/140/38"chest, medium should have worked but was extremely tight in the pits and across the back. Large would be too long. Too bad; loved the look and the high-performance material.

Probably the Best Jacket Ever
Wow. I bought last year's model of this jacket and it is amazing how warm this jacket is. I went out on a 38 degree day with a base layer and jersey under the jacket and I was cooking. I probably could have just went out with one base layer and this jacket because it is just so warm. The jacket has wind protection on the front and on the sleeves and it is very effective. The cut is race fit and is a very attractive looking jacket. This jacket is worth the price, however, if there is a sale, jump on it immediately.

"Just as the proverbial kingdom depends on the horseshoe nail, so," writes President Pusey, "the good habit can influence destiny. This is why the custom of making annual gifts to the Harvard Fund has a cumulative effect of great meaning for the future of Harvard." While the Fund may have a limited influence on destiny, it is indeed important to the College. The moratorium on Fund activities during the Program provides time for a reassessment of the organization of the solicitors of the Fund.
The Harvard Fund garners contributions from only a little more than 40 per cent of the alumni contacted each year, while Dartmouth achieves almost 80 per cent, Princeton 70 per cent, and even Yale receives a far higher percentage of givers than Harvard. Though the Harvard contributions are larger on the average than those of any other college, the relatively low percentage of givers should be a matter of concern for the administration.
To insure both receipts and general support from its alumni the Fund should act to achieve a broader base of givers. Each class after '47 has but four agents for solicitation of contributions. Earlier classes have fewer. The Permanent Class Committee must labor mightily to find the four magic individuals who know most of their classmates--especially the affluent ones--and who are either Bostonians or New Yorkers. The small size of the Fund staff prevents the utilization of larger numbers of agents. The dominant belief that agents must be a part of a small happy family in constant contact with the Fund office limits the location of prospective class agents as well as their number.
Harvard College is no longer the exclusive property of Boston or the Northeast; many of its graduates flee yearly to the Provinces. It would seem that a far greater participation in the Fund could be assured if Harvard increased the number of its agents to include at least one from each House, and adopted a regional organization for its solicitation, as is done before the 25th reunion.
Such a program would require an expansion of the Fund office and a sacrifice of some of the close contact that the office maintains with its agents. The loss of the "family atmosphere" of the Fund would, however, result in an important increase in participation by alumni and increased ties with the college.
It is time to recognize that dependence on generous gifts from a relatively small percentage of alumni is an unfortunate one. The college should maintain as complete a contact with its alumni as possible, and the policy which results in keeping contact only with the favored few is one that should be reconsidered.

Out of a record field of 245 teams from 23 countries, a student team from CBS won grand prize at this year's Global Social Venture Competition (GSVC) for an enterprise that draws upon the collaborative capabilities of microfinance institutions, the carbon market and the Internet.
MBA students Aynsley Toole '08, Evan Berger '09, Hillary Garris '09 and Matthew Roach '08 were awarded $25,000 in recognition of their business plan for MicroEnergy Credits Corp. (MEC), an organization dedicated to providing poor, rural households and small businesses worldwide with affordable access to clean energy sources. Founded by April Allderdice '01 and James Dailey, MEC facilitates the establishment of clean energy divisions within microfinance institutions.
By utilizing connections with the carbon emissions cap-and-trade market along with the power of a scaleable Internet technology, such divisions can make resources such as solar electric lighting, efficient cook stoves and biogas fuel available to those who wouldn't otherwise have access to electricity.
"My teammates and I believe that microfinance institutions, the carbon markets and clean energy sources can be combined to improve both the standard of living for the world's poor and the health of our environment, and this award validates our conviction," said Toole.
MEC joins the ranks of former Columbia Business School winners of the GSVC, including first-place winner Mobile Medics and third-place winner Highland Tea Company in 2006; second-place winner Connect Us in 2005; best blended winner IAM, LLC in 2004; and medium-growth winner Bronx Charter School for the Arts in 2002.
The GSVC, held April 18 at the University of California, Berkeley's Hass School of Business, was founded in 1999 to promote the creation and growth of businesses that strive for both financial and social goals.

Lightning-caused wildfire burning in southern Ariz
Web Producer: Ina Ronquillo
BENSON, Ariz. (AP) - A lightning-caused wildfire has charred about 100 acres in southern Arizona southwest of Benson.
Coronado National Forest officials say the Cottonwood Fire was reported Monday night in the Whetstone Mountains.
Officials say the fire is burning mainly grass and brush on a ridge top and no structures are threatened.
The Cochise County Sheriff's Office says crews from the Whetstone, Mescal and Willcox fire departments have water tenders at the scene.
Three engines, two single-engine tankers and one helicopter also are fighting the blaze.
