Daily Deals: A Matter of Scandal by Suzanne Enoch
A Matter of Scandal by Suzanne Enoch. $1.99.
From Jacket Copy:
Miss Emma Grenville has had her fill of pig-headed noblemen who believe women exist solely to satisfy men. And her arrogant new landlord, the Duke of Wycliffe, is the worst of the lot! The too-attractive cad wants to triple the rent on Emma's finishing school for young ladies to help get his newly inherited estate out of debt. Well, he clearly needs educating—about women. And Emma is just the one to enlighten him.
The sinfully handsome duke has never met a woman he couldn't seduce and outwit. And now that he's tricked Emma into a wager, he has the stubborn headmistress right where he wants her. But the confirmed bachelor underestimates the quick-witted and surprisingly sensual Miss Grenville. For she may be leading him to a place neither dreams they'll ever go—to the altar.
All These Things I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin. $2.99.
From Jacket Copy:
In 2083, chocolate and coffee are illegal, paper is hard to find, water is carefully rationed, and New York City is rife with crime and poverty. And yet, for Anya Balanchine, the sixteen-year-old daughter of the city's most notorious (and dead) crime boss, life is fairly routine. It consists of going to school, taking care of her siblings and her dying grandmother, trying to avoid falling in love with the new assistant D.A.'s son, and avoiding her loser ex-boyfriend. That is until her ex is accidently poisoned by the chocolate her family manufactures and the police think she's to blame. Suddenly, Anya finds herself thrust unwillingly into the spotlight–at school, in the news, and most importantly, within her mafia family.
The Bourne Sanction by Eric Van Lustbader. $2.99.
From Jacket Copy:
Jason Bourne returns to Georgetown University and the mild world of his alter ego, David Webb, hoping for normalcy. But after so many adrenaline-soaked years of risking his life, Bourne finds himself chafing under the quiet life of a linguistics professor.
Aware of his frustrations, his academic mentor, Professor Specter, asks for help investigating the murder of a former student by a previously unknown Muslim extremist sect. The young man died carrying information about the group's terrorist activities, including an immediate plan to attack the United States.
The organization, the Black Legion, and its lethal plot have also popped up on the radar of Central Intelligence, where new director Veronica Hart is struggling to assert her authority. Sensing an opportunity to take control of CI by showing Hart's incompetence, National Security Agency operatives plan to accomplish what CI never could-hunt down and kill Bourne.
In Europe, Bourne's investigation into the Black Legion turns into one of the deadliest and most tangled operations of his double life-the pursuit of the leader of a murderous terrorist group with roots in the darkest days of World War II-all while an assassin as brilliant and damaged as himself is getting closer by the minute . . .
The Unwilling Heiress: Signet Regency Romance (InterMix) by Sandra Heath. $2.99.
From Jacket Copy:
It took but a few words from the lips of a dying woman to change beautiful young Janine Oldfield's life utterly. The woman was her mother, who declared that Janine was more than the daughter of the most notorious actress in Regency London: she was also heiress to one of the greatest family names in England.
But when Janine came to the magnificent estate of Calworth to assume her place as granddaughter of proud and imperious Sir Adam Winterton, she discovered how perilous her exalted new position was… And as she fell in love against her will with handsome, scornful Richard Stuart, who accused her of being a pretender, she began to suspect that this man, who held her in such infuriatingly low esteem, might be actually, awfully, right..

|Blood biomarkers for uveal melanoma.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22335584 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|Uveal melanoma disseminates hematogenously, and blood biomarkers may be useful for prognosis and for monitoring disease progression. Melanoma-associated, metastatic and immune factors have been measured in the blood of patients with uveal melanoma, as have circulating melanoma cells. Most of the biomarkers were derived from studies in cutaneous melanoma. For various biological and/or technical reasons, these assessments have not demonstrated the accuracy required for effective prognostic or monitoring assays. Advances in uveal melanoma genomics and proteomics have generated many candidate biomarkers that are potentially measurable in blood. Measuring circulating nucleic acids may also be possible. Improvements in molecular profiling techniques that accurately predict metastatic risk in uveal melanoma patients should facilitate biomarker discovery and aid implementation in clinical testing. The stage is set to translate the advances made in understanding the molecular characteristics of uveal melanoma in order to identify and test clinically useful blood biomarkers of tumor dissemination and/or progression.

In the early 1960s, Rachel Carson's Silent Spring sparked an early fire beneath the organic food movement, instilling fear in consumers of unwittingly ingesting poisonous chemicals and becoming victims to an industrial agriculture that was blind to human welfare. Before long, though, fear turned to awareness, and awareness into opportunity. Along the way, being an organic consumer went from a lifestyle of limitation in the grocery aisle (or toiling in your home vegetable garden), to a new wave of abundance, and being an organic food producer went from risky to rewarding. The same holds true for numerous items we use daily, such as cleaning supplies, personal care products, and cosmetics. The more reason there is for caution, the more opportunity arises to rethink and redesign the stuff we need.
Today's New York Times featured two different articles about consumers' gravitation towards products that are made from ingredients that don't pose a threat to their health -- ingredients with names they can pronounce (in less than ten syllables) and origins they can envision. An article about home cleaning products attributes much of this rising demand to people's concerns for their children, and mounting evidence that chemicals in cleaning products can contribute to asthma and other health issues which are ever more common among kids. As one parent pointed out, when you think about it, it's pretty strange that we lock up household cleaners to be sure our kids don't touch them, but then we use them to spray the tables where they eat and the tubs where they bathe. Sure, it's much more dangerous for a kid to drink the stuff than bathe in it, but prolonged exposure to trace amounts can pose real hazards, too.
Starting a green cleaning supply business is a good prospect, since the driving factor motivating customers to choose one of these non-toxic products is emotional: safety and peace of mind. The Times article highlights a company called BabyGanics, founded by two enterprising parents who wanted to clean house with products their baby could touch safely. Clearly it's a founding mission that holds plenty of marketability, tugging as it does on the heart strings of caring parents.
And for the set not swayed by the sweet innocence of babies, there's always sex appeal. A few years ago, Method Home achieved some advertising perfection with a campaign featuring naked people cleaning house with Method brand products (the implicit message, of course, being that you'd never expose your bare skin to ordinary cleaning products). I saw Method founder, Eric Ryan, speak when that campaign was running, and besides presenting their brilliant marketing strategy, he pointed out (and this was in 2005) that their tiny little start-up had gotten huge companies like Unilever shaking in their boots over the potential power of marketing a harmless alternative to their known-to-be-deadly household staples, sending their R&D teams scrambling to come up with a competitive line.
Well now it's 2007, and the Times reports that S.C. Johnson & Son is making ammonia-free Windex products. Clearly the sector's Goliaths have found it worthwhile to keep making headway in the competition against their tiny -- but smart and fierce -- competitors. And Method's not so tiny any more. Their products can be found alongside the standards in most supermarkets, drugstores and big boxes (and accompanied by other booming green brands like Seventh Generation). And people want them -- they compete on price, and they warrant a spot outside a locked cabinet not only because they're non-toxic, but because they look good on a countertop.
The other investigation of toxics in the Times today looks at makeup. Whereas for a long time, the primary concern around cosmetics had to do with animal testing - a concern which in fact became ubiquitous enough to get most companies tacking "cruelty free" labels on their products -- now it's moving into demand for labeling about carcinogens and other damaging ingredients.
Momentum has been building for greater oversight of the chemicals in everyday products, with the European Union and California taking the lead in imposing new rules for monitoring what is in the perfumes, creams, nail polish and hair sprays that are sold.
The California Safe Cosmetics Act, which took effect on Jan. 1, requires cosmetics companies to tell state health authorities if a product contains any chemical on several government lists covering possible cancer-causing agents or substances that may harm the reproductive system.
Interestingly, the article points to ingredients generally considered "all natural," like lavender and tea tree oils, as being potential culprits in triggering significant hormonal changes in teenage boys.
Both articles discuss the challenges of imposing standard regulations for contents in cleaning and cosmetic products. Many of these industries have long been self-regulating and free from requirements to list every last thing in their formulas. Now that enigma is a turn-off for consumers, and companies face the challenge of either simplifying, detoxifying and becoming transparent, or incurring the growing mistrust of their conscious customer.
Great article Sarah, and it's nice to see this topic getting the awareness it deserves.
The support of large retailers is helping also. Just last week I was congratulating my wife on her purchase of Seventh Generation dish soap. She said "it was easy, it was right there on the shelf at Target."
i think it is also important to point out that although something is labeled as "natural" or even "organic" it may be anything but. You can put natural or organic ingredients in something, whether it be skincare, food, etc, but if you add synthetics and chemicals to the product, is it really natural/Organic?? All consumers must read the ingredient labels very carefully.
I appreciate being able to point my friends and family to increasingly available articles and information. I've suffered a lot of puzzled looks when I've mentioned the toxicity of household cleaners, cosmetics and air "fresheners". But I want to do more than mention, I want to enlighten. And I want to see the companies that produce these toxic substances lose money so maybe they will make changes that will benefit not only the consumer but their employees and maybe the entire planet.

A teen in Rhode Island is overcoming amazing odds.
He's on a mission to play for the NFL, even though he has no arms.
14-year-old Isaac Lufkin is still riding high from an undefeated season, and the freshman football state title.
He leads his division in onside kick recoveries this year; remarkable, considering what Isaac goes through just to suit up.
Lufkin spoke to CNN about his dreams, saying he doesn't want anyone's pity.
"Pity just makes me weaker," he explained.
"I want to be a defensive lineman!" he says excitedly.
"Hit people. they can't grab my arms, they can't grab my jersey. The only think they can do is actually block, but i can still crawl under them.
"And then it's not like they can sit on me. They gotta let me through."
Isaac really can do nearly anything on his own.
He's learned how to do remarkable things with his feet: Eating ice cream, playing the keyboard and video games.
He will be eligible to kick for his high school's varsity team next year.

I am just a broccoli
A sad and lonely soul.
Life is just a moccoli
That taunts me from this bowl.
The celery can promenade,
Asparagus cannot.
The Brussels sprouts can twist and shout
The cabbages fox trot.
The carrots all can cantor
The garlics are less fun
They insist on banter
And make cry the sweet onion
The wise old yam keeps time
While the sweet peas play their pods
The gingerroot looks mighty cute
She winks at me, and nods.
This yellow bowl, it keeps me safe
Within it's walls I cower.
Wouldn't it be swell
To bud out of my shell
And become a cauliflower?

We've thus far managed to survive without sequels to Citizen Kane and Battleship Potemkin and Intolerance, so I'm not sure the world really needed a follow-up to Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, 2004's ne plus ultra of gross-out stoner comedies. Yet it's clear that we could've done a helluva lot worse than Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay, a take-a-hit-and-miss effort in which, compared to its forebear, the highs are no higher, the lows are a tad lower, and the intentional stupidity is again tempered with bursts of shockingly subversive wit. As sequels go, it's no Godfather Part II, but it ain't Godfather Part III, either.

Last week, we examined the concept of how our prayers for the needy need to translate into doing something for them. This week we broaden our scope to look at a practical way that we can be engaged in prayer in the Community.
Praying for Our Community
There are a few different ways that we can become more aware of the needs in our community-at-large. One of the ways is through reading the paper and praying about an issue or a problem that strikes you. Just before Christmas, I read an article about how some Nova Vita apartments in my area had been burned by fire. The residents, women and children who were victims of Domestic Violence and were trying to build a new life for themselves, had lost many of their belongings and Christmas presents in the fire. For some reason, the article stuck with me. Yet, until this very moment, I didn't think to pray for them, I just thought about them. Maybe God was prompting me to pray about it by bringing it to mind?
Another way we can engage in prayer in our community is through 'prayer walks'. Prayer walking is simply walking around your neighbourhood, trying to see it through the eyes of Christ, and praying for the people and places in it. We could pray for our neighbours, for our relationships with them, for the children in the area and for ourselves to reflect Jesus to those around us. This may be an especially enjoyable way to walk and pray, to be alone with God, and to enjoy His presence and His creation.
When Joshua was given the leadership of the nation of Israel, the Lord told him "Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them – to the Israelites, I will give you every place where you set your food, as I promised Moses". (Joshua 1:2-3) As they moved forward they claimed the promises of God and eventually entered the Promised Land

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico - A 50-year-old predator was sentenced in federal court to 30 years in prison for possession and production of child pornography following a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) investigation.
Mariano Claudio, of Bayamon, Puerto Rico, was arrested by ICE special agents in November 2006 after a search of his residence resulted in the seizure of several computer hard disks and other electronic storage media devices containing explicit images of child pornography.
According to the indictment, Claudio persuaded, induced and enticed a 14-year-old female minor to engage in sexually explicit conduct, specifically, lascivious exhibition of the genital and pubic areas for the purpose of producing a visual depiction of such conduct. He pleaded guilty to the possession and production of child pornography charges in February 2007.
"Those who seek to harm and sexually exploit our children should know that we will hold them accountable for their actions," said Manuel Oyola Torres, special agent in charge of ICE's Office of Investigations in Puerto Rico. "We will continue working closely with other law enforcement agencies and prosecutors at the local, sate and federal level to investigate and bring child predators to justice."
Assistant United States Attorney Jenifer Hernandez prosecuted this case.
The arrest of Mariano Claudio was part of Operation Predator, a comprehensive ICE initiative aimed at those who prey on children, including human traffickers, international sex tourists, Internet pornographers, and foreign national predators whose crimes make them deportable. Since the initiative was launched in July of 2003, there have been more than 11,500 individuals arrested nationwide.
Additional information about Operation Predator is available on the Web at www.ice.gov. ICE encourages the reporting of suspected child predators and any suspicious activity through its toll-free hotline at 1-866-DHS-2ICE. This hotline is staffed around the clock by investigators. Suspected child sexual exploitation or missing children may be reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, an Operation Predator partner, at 1-800-843-5678 or http://www.cybertipline.com.

I ended up getting the email adress of someone at Novara bikes and asked them about the drive train. I was emailed a very thorough response. It involved testing all kinds of shifters and derailleurs and contacts with Shimano and compatability, etc, etc.
To make a long story short . . .
REI decided that the option of using the MTB rear derailleur was best made at the shop level and not as the OE (original equipment) specification. The mechanic and customer could discuss the pros and cons of modifying the drive train based on individual needs and comfort level.
He did say that they do have LX rear derailleurs and 11-32 cassettes available to send free of charge to customers who opt for a lower gearing option.

NEW YORK (July 17, 2013)-- Stocks closed with slight gains Wednesday after reports of earnings gains from major U.S. companies and reassurance from Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke that there was no "preset course" for ending the bank's massive bond-purchasing program.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 18 points, or 0.1 percent, to end at 15,470 Wednesday.

"Richard, please come here immediately." John said with a calm voice.
"Did something happened, brother?" Richards responded with a worrying tone of voice.
"John!? Are you still there?" John brings the phone down. Because of that, Richard's first thought is that, something bad happened to his brother.
December is just starting. It's the second week of December, but everyone is already prepared for the upcoming Christmas. Every one bears a joyous heart for the upcoming occasion. The whole world is enjoying except for one man named John.
John is a jolly person. He lives happily throughout his whole life-with a complete happy family, girlfriend and money. His rich family in love and money is very generous to him and so he is. He is contented with everything having his career.
The next morning came. It is a snowy morning. The road is full of heavy snow fall but Richard is still on his way going to his brother's house. The trip takes an hour being far away for about 2 miles towards his destination.
Richard looks at the digital clock in his car and something is bothering his mind. It's John, his brother.
"Wait for me brother." Richard told himself softly and continued driving.
The road is calm and long. Richard continued driving and turns on the stereo listening to the songs of FM Static. The trip is very long. When Richard is near to his destination, he jumps out of his car and hurriedly knocked the door of John's house.
"John!?" Richard knocked loudly and called his brother's name in a worrying tone.
John opened the door. His eyes are teary and red. John hugged his brother. Richard don't know what to say for this is his first time to see John like this.
"Its ok brother." Richard tapped John's back.
"Angel died!" John cried. Now, both Richard and John are crying aloud outside the house. Everyone is looking at them. Richard felt ashamed.
"John, let's go inside." Richard said sniffing.
The two brothers went inside the house and talks many things about them when they are still young. John recalled his memories with Angel, his dog who died last night.
Angel is John's cute dog and Richard's gift last Christmas. Angel was being murdered by the hunters outside. John loves Angel more than Anne, his wife, who often gets jealous of the dog.
Inside the house is Angel's picture with John. There are lots of random friends and people inside John's house. They are mourning for Angel's death.
Anne is inside the house, entertaining guests and visitors. Anne seemed not to be affected due to Angel's death. When Angel is still alive, Anne does nothing but to keep herself jealous with the dog of her husband.
"Anne!" Richard called his sister-in-law.
"Hey" Anne simply gave a hug to her brother-in-law.
"How are you?" Richard asked.
"I'm very..Happy.." Anne replied shortly and goes back to the guests.
Richard shook his head. He doesn't want to see the situation like this especially when his sister-in-law is very happy seeing her husband sad.
John and Anne never had a time for bonding. They always argue in one reason-Angel. And now, Angel is dead. Anne will stop complaining about the issues she and her husband have.
"Hi hun." Anne sat down beside her husband.
"Hi." John replied shortly. John seems to be o cold to her wife.
"What's the problem? You ok?" Anne asked trying to catch the appetite of her husband.
"Not really." John shortly replied and shook his head once again.
"Because of Angel again? You know what? Your time is always on that dog!" Anne yelled loudly.
"Angel is not a dog for me, she's a friend!" John said calmly.
"Fine! You always choose Angel over me! I want to file a divorce!" Anne walked out and left John.
"OK Hun!" John replied with a smile. John was not able to hear Anne's last statement and answered without thinking. He is currently listening to his favorite music as if there's no problem.
John became insensitive when it comes to his wife. As a result, his wife always seeks for his attention.
Inside the room, Anne packed her things and planned to go away from her husband. Right that moment, John exactly witnessed her wife packing her things up.
"Hey, what are you doing?" John asked with a surprise in his eyes.
"Can't you see? I will leave this house right now!" Anne yelled. Anne looks older than her age because of the stress that her childish husband had given her.
"And why would you leave?" John followed her from left to right.
"I'm going to file a case for our divorce! And you agree!" Anne yelled once again.
It's too, late. John can't believe of what's happening. He can't even believe himself that he was the one who agreed to have a divorce.
After a week, Angel's corpse is buried in a decent cemetery. Many attended the funeral. Everybody is crying because of John's loud cry. All people are wearing black dress. Anne is not with him this time and only Richard, his brother is the only one who supports him.
"Are you alright?" Richard asked.
"Yes, I'm fine." John replied shortly. He stopped crying and stood up.
"Next year, my status will be single again." John said in a lonely tone. Richard tapped his shoulder.
"If I were you, I'll talk to her before December ends." Richard suggested.
John has no second thought. He immediately went to the place where Anne is. He drove his car fast. There's no thing inside his head but only Anne.
John is drinking a light beverage inside his car. On his way, a rushing vehicle crossed the road and hit him. John was not able to see it. He lost control and his car stumbled.
Richard immediately went to the crime scene but he doest found John there. The ambulance already takes him to the hospital. He tried to contact Anne, but her mobile number is unattended.
Twelve midnight. Richard is rushing through the hospital looking for the room of his brother. The nurse said that John is needed to be operated immediately. Then the nurse pointed his room.
Inside the room where the nurse pointed, Richard heard two people talking heart to heart. It's John and Anne.
"John, please be strong." Anne said softly.
"I will." John replied with a soft voice.
After that, nurses and doctors entered John's room and bring him in the operating room. The operation lasted almost three hours.
Richard and Anne almost lost their hopes waiting for the result. Then the doctor faced them.
"How' my brother?"
"How's my ex-husband?"
Richard and Anne both stood up hoping for a good response. And thank God, John is safe. The two felt so relieved.
John is really not in a critical situation. The only part that was damaged to him was his feet and a little injury in hi head. One of the bones in his feet was being crashed and that's the only part that was to be operated. The operation took so long because the anesthetics didn't work when it was injected in John.
Days had passed. It's Christmas time. John celebrated it in the hospital. Anne is always there for him. Again, their sweetness before went back.
"I have a gift for you." Anne said softly.
"What is it?" John asked as he forced himself to sit.
Anne showed a box. Then John opened it. It's a cute puppy. And there's a note coming from his brother and from Anne.
Dear John,
I'm now moving on with my life. I'm going back to Japan for my job and for my dreams. I'm hoping that I will be happy, and even though I'm old to have my own family, I'm still hoping that the girl of my destiny will show up. Always take care, Richard.
John almost cried while reading his brother's note. He was amazed that his brother is strong and always stays positive in negative situations.
And the latter coming from Anne stated that the divorce will be cancelled and John was so happy of it.
John and Anne hugged each other and look outside the window. Outside the house are the cold snow flakes that continue to fall, which reminds them of a unique Christmas that they had ever celebrated.

LaMalfa widens fundraising gap over Reed; Republican gains 5 times as much cash
Go to http://goo.gl/bAb30/ for a database of campaign contributions in local, state and federal races that north state voters will decide Nov. 6.
Republican Doug LaMalfa continued to widen the fundraising gap between him and Democrat Jim Reed in the race for the 1st Congressional District seat.
LaMalfa, a rice farmer from Richvale, raised $75,944.61, according to campaign finance statements for Oct. 1-17, and on Friday, he reported an additional $6,000 his campaign received from a Roseville donor and two separate contributions from the Home Depot political action committee.
Reed's statements showed the Fall River Mills tax attorney raised $13,867.97.
Top industries that have backed LaMalfa include leadership PACs, crop production, real estate, health professionals, and oil and gas, the Center for Responsive Politics reports.
His campaign's latest report shows that trend holding up, with some of his strongest backers being PACs for California Dairies, Amgen, American Physical Therapy Association and Associated Builders & Contractors.
Other strong supporters included the California Rice Industry Association Fund and Farmers' Rice Cooperative.
The file is much slimmer for Reed, who loaned himself $5,000 this period.
His two largest contributions came from the Auburn Area Democratic Club and a group supporting the candidates endorsed by Engineers Local 3 based in Alameda.
LaMalfa boosted the congressional campaigns of four California Republicans.
He contributed $2,000 each to U.S. Reps. Brian Bilbray in the 50th District and Jeff Denham in the 19th District. Also receiving support were congressional candidates Gary DeLong in the 47th District and Ricky Gill in the 9th District.

Toshiba delays high-end HD DVD player to January
updated 02:05 pm EST, Thu December 28, 2006
Toshiba Delays HD DVD
Toshiba's US division has delayed its flagship HD-XA2 HD DVD player to January, according to a dealer's report at AVS Forum. Previously scheduled for December, the launch of the $1,000 disc player has been pushed back due to production delays. Also likely to miss the ship date is support for 1080p video at the film-standard 24 frames per second, according to a separate poster; the code required is now expected as part of a firmware update that will debut in a few months' time. Core improvements over the now shipping HD-A2 remain intact and include an HDMI 1.3 port for deeper color. [Via Engadget]

Planning on getting your junk touched this weekend?! Party for you! Ever wonder how many people are doing the deed at the same time as you? Or better yet, are you parents doing it at the same time as you! (I think I just puked in my mouth a little.)
Anyway, an online adult store Adam & Eve polled 1,000 people asking then their favorite positions. Here are the Top 6 results:
Oh, and I hope you really enjoy my self-drawn sex machines!
With most of the votes, Missionary is #1 with 32%
Plain and simple, girl on bottom/guy on top. Just hope she isn't a starfish, like my amazing drawing!
Doggie Style, or as they put it, "From Behind" is second with 23%
Woof! I am really great at drawing doggies, and this clearly comes into play today.
Right behind Doggie is Cowgirl at 22%
All that's needed is some ass-less chaps and a whip! Ride 'em cowgirl!
69, "Dinner For Two" is fourth with 7%
On a diet, this may be the best meal of your day...maybe. Look at these two, clearly their diet plan has worked. Although, they need to head to the gym to gain some muscle mass.
Spooning lands at #5 with 6%
Hm..spooning. That only makes me think of ice cream. I would say where is the B&J, but your sick mind might now get the whole Ben & Jerry's reference!
Again, another amazing drawing by myself. Why didn't I go to art school. I could be the next Picasso! You want this inked on your butt, I got you! You can save this picture and use it however you wish. It is that awesome!

Darcy Kuemper was minutes from making his first NHL start, running on a supply of nervous energy at Roger Arena in Vancouver, when Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo sat down next to the Wild's rookie goalie while both were stretching at the red line.
"He just tapped me on the pad and said, 'Good luck. Play your game,' " Kuemper said Tuesday, Feb. 12. "He's one guy I've been watching for the past five, six years, trying to emulate his game. It was pretty cool."
Kuemper was told Monday, Feb. 11, that he would be heading to the NHL with Josh Harding struggling to find the right medication to treat his multiple sclerosis. He made his first start on Tuesday, stopping 28 of 30 shots in a 2-1 loss to the Canucks.
The 22-year-old stopped Alexandre Burrows on a breakaway in the first period, and stopped all nine shots he saw in the third period before being lifted for an extra skater.
"I thought he was very good," coach Mike Yeo said. "That's not an easy game to throw him into. I give him a lot of credit. He looked confident, made saves, played the puck well. It was a good showing for him."
Kuemper had a 1.79 goals-against average in Houston, which led Wild general manager Chuck Fletcher to call him the "best goalie in the American (Hockey) League for the last month." He likely will return to Houston once Harding is able to play again, but the Wild don't know when that will be. And even if it happens quickly, Kuemper has something to build on.
"This has been a lifetime dream of mine, to play in the NHL," Kuemper said. "To get that experience was awesome."

A new app allows users to run through fictional outbreaks and make decisions about quarantines and investigative steps. / CDC via AP
ATLANTA (AP) - You may not be a disease detective, but now you can play one at home.
The nation's public health agency has released a free app for the iPad called "Solve the Outbreak." It allows users to run through fictional outbreaks and make decisions: Do you quarantine the village? Talk to people who are sick?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the app was designed in house and wouldn't give an estimate for development costs.
The agency says it is using social media to educate the public about diseases and to promote an appreciation for public health work. The app went live this week.

Conditions at Bremerton Homeless Camp Worry Kitsap Health Officials
EAST BREMERTON - Everything was tidy at Kevin "Country" Denny's homeless campsite in the woods off Highway 303 and McWilliams Road on Thursday.
The food was covered and stored, the dishes clean, and the plywood box toilet with five-gallon pail underneath gave out no odor.
The campsite and the surrounding woods where about 18 homeless tenters live looked better than usual Thursday because two health district workers had come through the day before finding trash and feces, a violation of health regulations.
"You just can't defecate on the ground," said Michael Drew, environment health specialist for the health district. He told the homeless people to get the place looking sanitary.
Which is exactly what Denny did. "Me and my brother came in like a tornado and cleaned it all up," said Denny, 48.
The visit scared homeless tenters so bad they began fearing a sweep by law enforcement. None is planned as of now.
The visit was prompted by a complaint. Dr. Scott Lindquist, health-district director, hastily called a public meeting to brainstorm solutions for a problem that is growing fast. It's at 9:30 a.m. Friday morning at the Norm Dicks Government Center.
Tenters say they have nowhere to go.
"We may have to leave everything here, drag a sleeping bag and sleep on the ground somewhere," said Deborah "Mama D" Engram, 46, emerging in a red velour robe from a tent she is sharing with longtime woods-dweller John White. She supports herself and White on $339 a month in welfare, plus food stamps, she said.
"I'm an ex-felon, so I can't even sign up for any kind of housing," she said.
She was getting ready to make White some tuna salad.
"He's got a craving, you now, just getting out of jail," she said.
Denny was equally panicked.
"We're thinking about leaving for a month, and then coming back," he said while eating a can of cold stew and a plastic container of fruit cocktail after putting on his shoes outside his tent.
They said people were here because of the recession.
"Because of the economy is so bad right now, they can't afford an apartment," Denny said.
New numbers suggest a dramatic rise in the number of homeless people in Kitsap County.
An estimated 2,953 people were homeless in Kitsap County in January, a 48 percent increase from before, according to the Washington Department of Social and Health Services and the Kitsap County Health District.
Of those, 1,854 said they were without any shelter whatsoever.
The numbers are substantially higher than the annual homeless count conducted by the Kitsap Continuum of Care Coalition, which estimates 1,084 homeless people, up from 847 in January 2009. The coalition's count is widely considered artificially low.
Larry Eyer, executive director of Kitsap Community Resources, agreed homelessness in Kitsap is on the rise.
"You see it in terms of people on the street panhandling. You see it in terms of people asking for services. You see it for those who go to the meal programs, and those who are out living in tents and other places," he said.
"We just need help from the community," Engram said.

So you want to learn how to flirt with a guy over text, huh? It's understandable, seeing how popular SMS flirting has become. But before you start flirting, you've got to know what you want to get out of it. If you're like most girls, you're interested in being attractive to the guy you're flirting with. This is important to keep in mind, because it will help to steer you in the right direction when choosing how to communicate with him.
Be Suggestive Without Overdoing It
This might sound like an oxymoron to some people, but it is definitely possible to be a little naughty while keeping it G-Rated. For example, you can say something like "I liked the shirt u had on today, color reminded me of my favorite nighty!" Trust in the fact that guys know where to take things from there in their own minds and they'll catch on to your SMS flirting style.
Be Interested
More than likely at one point or another, you'll have a text conversation that includes sports, action movies, or Sci-Fi shows (it depends on the kind of guy you are texting) of some kind. It's important to be interested enough to reply with a thoughtful question about their interests. No doubt he'll find it sexy to school a cute girl in his favorite subject.
Take It Slow
When you are learning how to flirt with a guy over text make sure you don't go overboard. Too much obvious flirting can drive the experience into a not-so-pleasingly mind-numbing one. Go ahead and make it known that you're feeling a little flirty, but then you should step back a little and take cues from the guy you're texting with.
Always Be Confident
You can't wait until after you've learned how to flirt with a guy over text and you're comfortable with it to exude confidence in your conversations. Confidence is key to getting a guy to think you're hot. If you want success in SMS flirting with guys, you should send messages that show confidence in your knowledge and skills.
Never make it seem like you're only interested in pleasing him and his interests. Instead, you should create a situation where a little respect and trust is formed between the two of you. This doesn't have to be in the form of long drawn out conversations, especially when you barely know the person. But skip the typical "how are you?" pleasantries and make those messages count. This makes flirting through text and even creating a relationship with the help of text messages more effective.
If you really want to know how to flirt with guys over text in a way that'll make them crazy for you, I really recommend checking out Calling Men, which is a guide to calling, emailing or texting guys the right way. It does a great job teaching the best ways to get a guy's attention without scaring him off.
Sending flirty texts can be one of the easiest ways to attract the girl or guy you are interested in, since you can be fun and a bit romantic without the pressure of face-to-face conversation. On this site I will teach you the killer tricks I know for successfully flirting by text!

Finally, in your article, you say that there were other offers that generated higher yields to the district. There were two considerations when the decision was made to accept Arnel Development's offer to build a Wal-Mart on the site; a consultant advised us on the viability of the other offers and our commitment to the city of Huntington Beach. The current configuration will offer the best sales-tax return to the city, which in turn benefits all the residents. If the property is developed with houses, the city gets only the property-tax revenues with additional homes to provide services to.
I hope that the voters take time to become informed on the issues and not rely on one-sided articles such as yours.Pam Walker president, Ocean View School Board Huntington Beach Juan Rockefeller, finance analyst in theOC Weekly DataLab, responds: Ms. Walker, we'll make you a deal: we'll take the $7.5 million you say you'd get from an outright sale of the Crest View School site and invest it with the modest expectation that we'll average 10 percent per year. At the end of 65 years, we'll give you half of the principal and interest income, leaving you with almost $1 billion—compared to your paltry $68 million—to divide among the residents of Huntington Beach. Now who do you think they'd rather have in charge of the district's finances?

The National Rifle Association and their more rabid supporters seem to want us all to live like they did in the old Wild West, when no one would dare step outside of their house without first strapping on a gun. Of course, back then the resultant carnage prompted the town of Tombstone to require all visitors to turn in their firearms at the local sheriff's office. It was the refusal of the Clancy brothers to do that which led to the "shootout at the OK Coral."
Do we really want to go that way again?

M. D. Anderson Appoints Distinguished Chemoprevention Researcher Vice President, Division Head of Cancer Prevention and Population Sciences
Ernest T. Hawk, M.D., M.P.H., has joined The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center as vice president and head of the Division of Cancer Prevention and Population Sciences (DCPPS).
Hawk, formerly the director of the Office of Centers, Training and Resources in the Office of the Director at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in Bethesda, Md., is trained as a medical oncologist with specialization in cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. His tenure at the NCI spanned 11 years and included multiple posts within the organization, including chief of the Gastrointestinal and Other Cancers Research Group in the NCI's Division of Cancer Prevention, medical officer in the Chemoprevention Branch and chair of the Translational Research Working Group.
His personal research interests include the identification and translational development of markers and agents that may detect or prevent cancer and the study of the molecular intersections between cancer and other common diseases of aging, such as cardiovascular disease and cognitive disorders.
"I have a great admiration and respect for Dr. Hawk and know that he will be a tremendous asset to the division and to the entire M. D. Anderson team," says Raymond DuBois, M.D., Ph.D., provost and executive vice president of M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. "His leadership and vision are critical in continuing and expanding on the division's groundbreaking work accomplished during Dr. Bernard Levin's tenure."
Hawk has been involved in chemoprevention research focused on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and COX-2 inhibitors, and he has earned numerous awards, including the NCI Research Award for Distinguished Achievement in Cancer Prevention. Hawk currently serves as senior editor for Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention.
"I am extremely excited by the tremendous opportunities in cancer prevention research and clinical practice presented by M. D. Anderson and its leadership," says Hawk. "It is my firm belief that the division has the capacity to emerge as the definitive resource for educating the public and health care professionals about state-of-the-art practices in cancer prevention and the critical role that research plays in its future. I look forward to building upon Dr. Levin's successes, with the division serving as a dynamic training ground for future generations of researchers and practitioners committed to cancer prevention, and to the broader mission of improving and sustaining health."
Hawk succeeds Bernard Levin, M.D., who is retiring after 23 years of distinguished service at M. D. Anderson. Levin founded the DCPPS, which now includes 69 faculty members who oversee more than $24 million in active grants. His years as vice president and division head were productive ones, "punctuated by an impressive expansion of the division's public outreach efforts, the construction of our modern Cancer Prevention Building and significant advances by the stellar faculty and staff he has assembled and guided," says DuBois. Among Levin's many honors is the Charles A. LeMaistre, M.D., Outstanding Achievement Award in Cancer, which he received at M. D. Anderson's 2007 Faculty Honors Convocation.
A native of Detroit, Mich., Hawk earned his bachelor's and medical degrees at Wayne State University School of Medicine, and his master of public health degree at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. He completed an internal medicine internship and residency at Emory University, a medical oncology clinical fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco, and a cancer prevention fellowship at the NCI. 11/29/07

"Hallelujah" is a frequent exclamation from the lips of petite Donna Hollis, wife of the Rev. John Hollis, 37-year pastor of the First Church of the Nazarene in Freeport. "She has been the 'cheerleader' for our congregation," the pastor offers, "the spark plug."
"Hallelujah" is a frequent exclamation from the lips of petite Donna Hollis, wife of the Rev. John Hollis, 37-year pastor of the First Church of the Nazarene in Freeport. "She has been the 'cheerleader' for our congregation," the pastor offers, "the spark plug."
But, it is obvious, they are a team.
The Hollises have served the local church since 1977, and not only the church, but the community as well. That is one of the things both have been most grateful for. The local church has allowed them to serve beyond the church as an outreach into the community. Pastor Hollis has served as interim chaplain at the hospital and has conducted weddings and funerals for members and non-members alike. He has been involved in interdenominational activities, and have always welcomed any and all into the church.
Donna taught kindergarten for 20 years at Tri-County Christian School and before that substitute-taught for Freeport School District. "She had a hard time getting out of kindergarten," pastor said. She also taught remedial reading and math under the Title One government program through Freeport District 145. Then Pastor Hollis could often have been seen in the bleachers when his children or those from his congregation were involved in sports. So this couple has been part of the Freeport scene in numerous ways.
But the thing of it is, Pastor Hollis is retiring, and he and Donna have plans to move to Elkhart, Ind., where two of their children reside. The Hollises came here with two young children, and one was born here. They claim a fourth one as a son who came to them as "a blessing from God."
A Little Church History
Visiting at a table in the church's fellowship hall, the pastor said he believes the original part of the present church at 125 E. Empire St. was built in about 1847, the same general era as its neighboring Stephenson County Historical Society on South Carroll Avenue. It was a large home, he said recalling the family name of Gund associated with it.
"The idea of forming a church began with tent meetings," Pastor Hollis said, explaining that evangelistic or revival meetings were held in 1926. A brief history of the church published in 1997 for the 50th anniversary of the church, names Mrs. A.B. Mallory, "called of God," as the inspiration for these meetings. Through the great interest shown, a church was organized for the "teachings and doctrines of the Nazarene Church." Mrs. Mallory was appointed its first pastor.
A small frame building was constructed for worship on the corner of Ottawa and Shawnee that same year. Over the years, a number of pastors served until in 1947, the Rev. J.J. Gough came, and under his leadership, according to the history, the old frame tabernacle on Shawnee and Ottawa was sold and the present property on East Empire Street purchased.
Page 2 of 3 - And there the church has remained. Many improvements have been made over the years, including the addition of the sanctuary in 1955.
The house originally had servants' quarters and a carriage house. In those first years after the purchase of the house, the church needed a lot of work, Pastor Hollis said. The early pastors' families lived upstairs in the building.
Church's 70th Big Event
That 70th anniversary was celebrated big with a fellowship breakfast and evening service of "Praise and Sharing" on Saturday, and a "Look to the Future" at the Sunday morning worship hour with guest speakers and musicians. The Hollises' son Steve served as worship leader. A mass choir of current and former members performed. A buffet dinner and evening service closed the full weekend celebration.
"Our congregation loves to celebrate anniversaries," Pastor Hollis remarked.
"They had a big celebration when we had been her for 10 years," Donna said.
"The year we moved here in March 1977 the first big event was the celebration of the church's 50th anniversary, so we have celebrated many anniversaries with the church. We recently celebrated the 85th."
"The church is strong in missions," Pastor Hollis said.
"There are 159 world missions of the Nazarene (denomination)." He said there were missions in countries where the government would not allow them. The congregation has a "Faith Promise" event in November to raise funds for the missions fields. They bring missionaries in to raise money for missions. "Donna was mission president up until two years ago," Pastor Hollis said.
"The local church has sent teams to Toronto and Mexico," Donna said.
"Those who are sent as missionaries from our denomination go on salary," Pastor Hollis said. "Each local Nazarene Church has an allotment for missions." The local church's "Work and Witness" program sends groups to various areas for aiding the population. The Hollises have been to France and Brazil on such missions. The one to France was a group from the church's Northwestern Illinois District.
A Good Mix
"God let us stay," Donna said. "We came when Steve was 8 and Julie, 5, and Mark was born here. Our kids have all been involved in music in high school. Mark, who has achieved wide recognition in pole vaulting, got his start at Freeport High School."
"We have a huge hole in our hearts leaving here," Donna said. "We were loved and accepted for who we were. I have loved being a pastor's wife."
Donna commends the congregation for being so accepting of their family and especially for being "understanding of their children, and not expecting more of them than others."
Pastor Hollis said he was grateful that the church allowed him to minister to the community. "Everybody has gifts that God gives them to be part of the human family. My primary gift is serving and I find pleasure in it. That is who I am, and Donna is the same way."
Page 3 of 3 - Donna describes the congregation as one of "caring and sharing."
"It has been a good fit," says her husband.
He will preach his final sermon here Aug. 4. They've agreed they will turn to the Scripture that they say has served them well, "Trust in the Lord."
We can almost hear one of Donna's "Hallelujahs."

December 1, 2015
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Even though consumer prices have fallen in the past year, President Barack Obama says that's not the case for health care costs.
Obama says that's one reason he wants people on Social Security to get a $250 payment to make up for the lack of an increase in their benefits next year.
Obama told a town hall meeting in New Orleans on Thursday that this health care reform plan will also help protect seniors and others from rising health care costs - so that over the long term, those costs won't be rising more quickly than Social Security.
The president says nonpartisan analysts have found that health care reform would lower costs "across the board," partly by eliminating inefficiency.

guy clifton mug for new column sig / Provided to the Reno Gazette-Journal
MPAA RATING: PG for thematic content, violence and language involving racism, and for brief sensuality
LENGTH: 129 minutes
WHERE PLAYING: Century Theaters, Galaxy, Ironwood, Tahoe City
DIRECTOR: Gary Fleder ("Runaway Jury")
CRITICAL RATING: 3½ stars out of 4
Inspirational sports movies are a dime a dozen, but only a handful are as well-crafted and memorable as "The Express."
The film, directed by Gary Fleder, relates the life story of Ernie Davis, the first black football player to win the Heisman trophy. Although Davis was one of the finest college athletes to carry a pigskin, he isn't widely known because he died of leukemia before he could start a professional career.
This fact hangs over "The Express," darkening the mood, but the tragic end isn't what should stick with viewers. That's because Davis -- as depicted on screen and in many personal accounts -- was a charismatic, disciplined and charming young man.
It's fitting then that "The Express" is less about sports than Davis' struggles to overcome racism and the pressures of an unfair world to become an extraordinary man. And extraordinary he was.
Not only was Davis the first black man to win the Heisman, he was the first to be selected No. 1 overall in the NFL draft, and he led Syracuse University to an undefeated season and national championship during his sophomore season.
Fleder, working from the Robert C. Gallagher book "Ernie Davis: The Elmira Express" and a screenplay by Charles Leavitt, hits all the highlights of the young athlete's career. When viewers first meet Davis, he's an impetuous youngster who refuses to give in to racism, and he quickly transforms into a handsome young man with punishing football skills.
The grown Davis is portrayed by Rob Brown, who played Sean Connery's apprentice in the 2000 drama "Finding Forester," and he does a fine job both on and off the field. In fact, every member of "The Express" cast is terrific, even though the only A-lister is Dennis Quaid, who plays Davis' Syracuse coach, Ben Schwartzwalder. Like most movie coaches, Schwartzwalder is portrayed as stern but genuinely interested in the success of his players, and Quaid is ideal for such roles at this stage of his career.
Along with Davis and football, "The Express" considers the Jim Crow South, and it appropriately demonstrates how important Davis' contributions were to other blacks of his day. It also reminds that even some of the so-called progressive whites had racist tendencies. In one scene, for instance, Schwartzwalder chastises Davis for waving to a group of white girls, and in another he lets a white running back carry the ball for a score, fearful of what the crowd would do if Davis got the touchdown.
I'm not certain whether these sequences were based on reality or were Hollywood fabrications, but they are at least representative of similar wrongs carried out during America's history. And it's important that we remember.
"The Express" is a movie that works on many levels and because of this it should speak to many audiences. First, it is a superb football film that sports fans should revel in. Second, it is steeped in relevant social commentary. Most importantly, though, it is a touching and fitting memorial to one of the greatest athletes in American history.
