WASHINGTON (AP) - Congress' top Democrat accused Republicans on Friday of risking a government shutdown because they want to make it harder "for women to get cancer screenings."
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid unleashed his attack as his main antagonist in long-running negotiations, Speaker John Boehner, said spending cuts _not social issues -- was blocking agreement to prevent a shutdown at midnight.
The maneuvering unfolded as President Barack Obama canceled a trip to Indianapolis and spoke in separate phone calls with Reid and Boehner.
"Discussions between the leaders and the White House aimed at reaching a budget agreement are continuing," White House press secretary Jay Carney said in a written statement.
"I assure you, these are not unresolvable issues," added Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
Obama, Reid and Boehner met at the White House on Thursday evening for the third time in two days, and their aides struggled without success to reach agreement in middle-of-the-night talks in the Capitol.
Republicans have been seeking $40 billion in cuts, as well as several other provisions to advance the conservative agenda backed by a rank and file that includes dozens of first-termers elected with the support of tea party activists.
As the Senate opened for business, Reid said the two sides had reached agreement on $38 billion in spending cuts and the only hangup was a Republican demand to cut a federal program that provides women's health and family planning services.
"They are willing to throw women under the bus, even if it means they'll shut down the government," he said.
"Republican leaders in the House have only a few hours left to look in the mirror, snap out of it and realize how positively shameful that would be."
But Boehner said the two sides were "close to a resolution" on the non-spending issues, and there was "only one reason that we do not have an agreement as yet, and that issue is spending."
"When will the White House and when will Senate Democrats get serious about cutting federal spending?" he asked rhetorically.
Boehner urged Obama to reconsider a veto threat against legislation to keep the government open for one additional week while negotiators continue working on a deal to fund federal programs through Sept. 30.
That measure includes $12 billion in spending cuts, and provides enough funds to keep the Pentagon in operation through Sept. 30.
Barring an agreement or perhaps another temporary bill to keep the government operating, the shutdown of most of the government would begin at midnight. Many essential workers, such as mail carriers, air traffic controllers and the military, would stay on the job.
Obama said ominously on Friday night that the machinery of a shutdown was already in motion.

Speaking to the Markets or to the People? A Discursive Institutionalist Analysis of the EU's Sovereign Debt Crisis
Vivien A.Schmidt
The article's strength was that it developed and refined, an established world class renowned scholar's existing theoretical and conceptual framework for understanding the role of ideas and discourse in framing policy development and making legitimacy claims. It applied this refined framework to a salient and contemporary question of pressing political, economic and social importance (the Euro zone crisis) in an instructive fashion. The article provides a diagnosis of the political difficulties encountered by leaders in trying to manage the euro zone crisis, - the difficulty of co-ordinating and communicating commensurate messages for their populations, the markets, the media and for one another, with the result that there is no legitimate EU wide co-ordinative discourse. Poor political management and ineffectiveness is explained in terms of competing ideas and pressures. The article has a commendable comparative element and is particularly effective at illuminating the inconsistencies and inadequacies of current German policy positions on handling the Euro zone crisis.View previous winners

MIMBRES VALLEY — A crowd of about 100 people turned out for the third public fire information meeting in the Mimbres Valley to update residents on the nearby Silver Fire — now covering nearly 200 square miles.
Smoke from the fire has blanketed the Mimbres Valley and Silver City area for the past three days, but fire officials said residents could see some relief as weather conditions may shift, bringing higher humidity and a chance of rain to the region. Smoke was so thick over the fire on Friday — sending up a plume 39,000 feet in the air early in the day — that the nightly infrared flight could not determine the exact size of the fire's growth and helicopters could not be used because of the extreme fire behavior and heavy smoke.
"The driest air in the entire United States is sitting over the fire and the Mimbres Valley at this time," said Incident Meteorologist Tom Bird. "This area has had two years of sub-normal rainfall and is now in what we call "exceptional' drought conditions."
Bird said while some rain may be on the horizon, this is not the start of the monsoons. And there is also a slight chance of isolated thunderstorms on the Black Range that could bring dry lightning.
The fire, meanwhile, continues to move to the northwest — farther into the Aldo Leopold Wilderness, which remains closed because of the fire.
Operations Section Chief Bill King said there had been no movement of fire on the east side over the past few days — where the town of Kingston lies.
"We're hoping we'll get weather this coming week that will damp this thing down. It's still too intense to fight directly," King said.
Despite the fire's growth on the north and west sides, firefighters have managed to secure 35 percent containment on the eastern flank and at the southern tip thanks to helicopter dumps and hand crews digging containment lines on those edges. Those areas of the fire are now being monitored by air, with no crews assigned there, as there has been no fire activity there for several days.
While numbers have fluctuated as to how many firefighters have been assigned to the fire, 750 personnel were assigned as of Friday night — the most since the fire was sparked by lightning on June 7.
Incident Commander John Pierson said that fire activity in the Rabb Park area was fairly minimal, but there was a small section where the fire was not under control, and it crossed the fire line on Thursday, burning right up to the first cabins on McKnight Road. No structures have been lost, however, and no evacuations are currently in effect, nor are any evacuations expected to be necessary in the immediate future, Pierson assured the crowd.
To help aid suppression efforts on the fire, the state has agreed to let the incident management team use the state's allotments of water from Bear Canyon Lake for water drops. The team is keeping close records of how much water they are taking out of the lake to make sure they stay within the terms of the land use agreement.
Even as firefighters continue to create containment lines, conduct aerial burnouts, and work to protect buildings, the Burned Area Emergency Response team has been on the scene assessing burn damage in watershed areas where the damage may lead to soil erosion and eventual flooding.
"There are three main drainage areas that are of concern, because of communities at risk downstream in the event of flooding," BAER information officer Al Coss said. "The first is north and south Perchas, on the east side of the fire, where the watershed drains toward Kingston and Hillsboro. The second is the Gallinas watershed on the west side of the fire, which drains toward Royal John Mine Road. The third is the Noonday watershed, which we'll be looking at in more detail with the next satellite images."
Coss said the Forest Service has applied for funding to cover a number of issues caused by the fire, including aerial seeding and mulching, maintenance on Royal John Mine Road, repair campgrounds and trails in burned areas, and drainages along highway 152. Funding is expected to be in place by early next week, with seeding and mulching to start shortly after.
In answer to a question from the audience, Pierson said Highway 152 will remain closed for at least a couple more weeks, maybe a month to allow for clean up and rehabilitation work.
A few residents went up to incident management officials after the meeting to ask them to point out active fire near their homes on the fire maps posted on the walls, and tell them how far it was from their home. One audience member requested that rather than saying the fire is eight miles from highway 35, fire officials should say how far the fire is from a certain mile marker.
Another audience member asked about fireworks restrictions.
"Fireworks are never allowed on federal lands, ever," Forest Fire Staff Officer Gabe Holguin said.
Another audience member asked why fireworks are even being allowed to be sold locally, since conditions in the entire area are so dry.
"The county has banned all fireworks that are bannable," said District 2 Grant County Commissioner Brett Kasten, who was in the audience. "We have banned everything that we are allowed to ban. That includes aerials, things that explode. We can't ban fireworks that are on the ground. We've asked the Legislature, but the fireworks lobby is too strong."
Stage One fire restrictions remain in effect on the Gila National Forest. For details on those restrictions, visit: firerestrictions.us.

Lindsay Lohan Backs Mitt Romney
Under Mitt Romney's leadership in Massachusetts, the state's job creation rate took a serious nosedive, knocking it from 36th to 47th out of 50 states, while workers' median income declined. Yet Lindsay Lohan believes Mitt can turn the nation's economy around by creating new jobs. Asked who she supported in the presidential campaign, Lohan, the Chateau Marmont's resident Alan Greenspan, told E! "I just think employment is really important right now. So, as of now, Mitt Romney. As of now." Asked to elaborate, she offered, "It's a long story." Something tells us it involves a limo at 4 a.m., the paparazzi or Amanda Bynes. (GossipCop)

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) - Officials at an Alabama jail say a man
accused of killing two teenagers when his truck crashed into a car
wash while fleeing police last month has been identified as an
illegal immigrant.
U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement has placed a detainer
on 25-year-old Felix Dominquez Ortega, who has been in the Madison
County jail since his arrest April 17.
Police say Ortega, who faces murder and other charges,
apparently was drunk when he fled from officers and struck the
other vehicle. Killed were killed 16-year-old Leigh Anna Jimmerson
of Grissom High School and 19-year-old Tad Mattle, a recent Grissom
Police spokesman Sgt. Mark Roberts said Ortega was wanted at the
time for an outstanding warrant for driving under the influence.

The only P&O ship I've sailed on is Ventura. I enjoyed it so much that I cruised on her again. I mostly had dinner in the speciality restaurants though.
The thing with P&O is that the ships seem to offer different things so you'll probably get every ship mentioned as the best of the fleet.
I had one of these visits with lunch on Oriana and thought it a dull and dowdy ship............it's my brothers favourite though (since Canberra went). I had curry for lunch and was offered a choice of....................boiled potatoes
It would be great if we could try them all, wouldn't it?
The last 2 cruises we did with P&O were Artemis & Adonia. We thought the food on both was rubbish. We heard other people saying how lovely the food was. No accounting for taste! Unfortunately we are comparing with how things 'used to be' and then would have classed P&O as excellent. The professionalism and friendliness of the staff has also gone down. The big plus is that they go from Southampton. We did a trip on Oriana 1999, Cape Town to Singapore and couldn't fault it in any way. Next month we are giving Cunard a try for the first time. I have read reviews that differ enormously so guess the only way is to try it.
6th April 2012, 03:17 PM #5
I've been on Eclipse and although i loved the food and had a great time, i didn't like the lay out of that ship.
I liked Oceana's lay-out with the theatre at one end and the show bar at the other. I also liked the way the buffet was laid out, in a straight line rather than wandering about all over the place............................................. .................Carol
My favourite at the moment is Azura.
There are some we have not tried... give me time!
Artemis... Great food, compact ship but too quiet.
Oceana... Had the WOW impact, but seemingly getting a little tired.
Ventura ... Great for the covered pool, super free pizzas.
Azura ... same layout, so didn't get lost ONCE. Just that bit more classy!
Would go on Ventura again, no problem. Cannot wait for our next one on Azura though.
Want to try Aurora.. heard some good reports about her.
*Carol M*
We've cruised on Ventura, Oriana, and Azura. This summer we are about to try Oceana for the first time too and we are really looking forward to that experience. We're slowly working our way around the fleet but our favourite so far is our very first P&O ship. She's big, she's fun, and she gives everyone a run for their money. Put quite simply.....she's Ventura.....and she captured our hearts from the moment we first stepped on board her.

Hm....Aurora is our least favourite ship of all the ones we've been on, but that was a few years ago and was possibly because the cruise director wasn't up to the job, but we weren't very impressed by the ship itself. She's the only ship I'd find it difficult to draw a map of, she made such a small impression, even though it was our longest cruise.
Ventura is definitely our favourite of all the ships we've tried so far, and will take a lot of beating.
I prefer crew who aren't in your face all the time....I find it a bit wearisome on some lines.
I fancy Oceana, as I enjoyed the lay out on her twin, Sea Princess, which I can remember in detail 6+ years on.

Aurora, 122 days on her and loved every single one of them.
Oriana, a close second, but with only half that number of days.
Oceana, because it was out first cruise with P&O, which then got use hooked, many years ago.

Gwyneth Paltrow's Fifth Grade Teacher > Your Fifth Grade Teacher
At this educational institution — if you can even call it that — Gwyneth didn't learn things like you or I did. In fifth grade, we learned things like long division, how to dissect a novel, and the art of book reports. Paltrow actually "didn't learn anything," she told Kimmel.
"We used to meditate in the mornings, and then we had one teacher who was really into that song 'Sexual Healing' by Marvin Gaye," she continued. "In fifth grade, every morning we came into 'Sexual Healing,' and we would dance." In one class called "Emotional Movement," every time the teacher banged on a tambourine, Gwyneth and pals had to make a shape to express their feelings.
That actually sounds fantastic and a lot more fun than the aforementioned long division we were doing. We have to wonder, though, if Paltrow still has a Pavlovian response of throwing shapes every time she hears a tambourine. If only we could get close enough to her to test this theory. (Crushable)

Mind at least explaining to everyone why and how this works? I find it somewhat lame when someone posts a so-called "exploit" without even explaining anything at all. That's no technical skill; that's simply clicking a few buttons.
v0id_64 is teh win i bow to you. i have 0 skills
the person that discovered this and found the mdiag tool has worked out that wga download validation uses your "download center code" which in turn represents the hash="your code here" i have no idea how he found this as their is no details on his posting. The original link is here
i tested on another product key from the same area i live in. my friend got the same download center code so maybe product regions have the same download center code.

|The savant syndrome and its possible relationship to epilepsy.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22411254 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|The goal of this chapter is to review the Savant syndrome (SS), characterized by outstanding islands of mental ability in otherwise handicapped individuals. Two forms exist: The congenital and acquired form. Among the many examples of the congenital form are the calendar calculators, who can quickly provide the day of the week for any date in the past. Other examples are the musical savants with perfect pitch and the hyperlexics, who (in one case) can read a page in 8 seconds and recall the text later at a 99% level. Other types of talents and artistic skills can be found, involving 3-D drawing, map memory, poetry, painting, sculpturing, including one savant who could recite without error the value of Pi to 22,514 places. The acquired form refers to the development of outstanding skills after some brain injury or disease, usually involving the left fronto-temporal area. This type of injury seems to inhibit the 'tyranny of the left hemisphere', allowing the right hemisphere to develop the savant skills. One other way to inhibit the left fronto-temporal area is to use transcranial magnetic stimulation in normal subjects and nearly one-half of these subjects can then perform new skills during the stimulation that they could not perform before. This type of finding indicates the potentiality in all of us for the development of savant skills under special circumstances. Explanations of the congenital SS include enhanced local connectivity as a compensation for underconnectivity of long-range fibers, but also weak central coherence, replaced by great attention to details, enhanced perceptual functioning and obsessive pre-occupation with specific interests. Neurodegenerative Diseases, edited by Shamim I. Ahmad.

HILLSVILLE — Troops in Afghanistan and Iraq get a regular care package containing greetings from Hillsville with love.
The return address is "From Our Hearts."
A senior activities group, crafters known as the Papershakers, at the Carroll Wellness Center becomes a miniature greeting card factory when they meet in the aerobics room every month.
The group, facilitated by Stampin' Up! crafting demonstrator Karen "Kavi" Coulson, started out making cards with their own hands for their personal use.
HILLSVILLE — Having listened patiently to two planners speak for more than two hours about why Carroll County should update its vision for the future, citizen Phillip McCraw used the last few minutes of the kickoff meeting to say what was on his mind.
Mike Chandler of Chandler Planning and Bruce Peshoff of Planning Works shared the reasons for updating Carroll's comprehensive plan, the goals, the methods and the process on Jan. 14 in the county's high school cafeteria, but McCraw noted he's already experiencing some frustration when it comes to planning issues.
INDEPENDENCE — Times may be tough fiscally in Grayson County, but school leaders remain optimistic that their facilities improvement plan will save taxpayers money in the long run.
Earlier this month, the Grayson County Board of Supervisors passed a resolution postponing Phase II of the school system's long-range facilities improvement plan, which includes additions and renovations to Independence Elementary and a new school similar to the one being built in the western end of the county.
Churches in the community united on Jan. 17 at Gospel Temple #2 in Galax to commemorate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the progress in Civil Rights that has been made throughout the years.
Even though the event is held annually, the black community had something new to celebrate — the election of the first black president.
A campground and several fishing areas have been destroyed along the New River after enormous pieces of ice broke apart and drifted downstream early this week.
New River Trail State Park rangers are blaming the destruction on wildly shifting temperatures, mixed with near record snowfall last month.
The area saw anywhere from 12 to 18 inches of snow in December, followed by single digit temperatures for several weeks.
RADFORD -- Carroll County trailed for virtually the entire game until forcing overtime with a late rally, but was unable to complete the comeback, falling 54-49 to Radford in a nondistrict game Wednesday. After taking its only lead in regulation by scoring the game's first two points, Carroll County (10-3) faced its largest deficit of the game, 37-27, with less than six minutes to play before staging a furious rally.
INDEPENDENCE -- Sometimes it happens early, sometimes it happens late, but it almost always seems to happen.
HILLSVILLE — The Carroll Industrial Park's development restrictions lacked one day of expiring before county officials renewed them for another 20 years, much to the consternation of two businessmen.
The Carroll supervisors and the Industrial Development Authority held a public hearing on the covenants on Jan. 11, one day before the 20-year period on the restrictions would have expired.
Without the approval of the two boards, the county would not have been able to put the covenants in place again, County Attorney Jim Cornwell said near the end of the discussion.
If Virginia gets its way, the requirement that pass rates on state tests increase each year will screech to a near halt.
A centerpiece of the federal No Child Left Behind legislation is that all schools will need to reach 100 percent proficiency on state tests by 2014. Virginia has required increases of a few percentage points annually or biennially for schools to make "Adequate Yearly Progress" toward that mandate.
HILLSVILLE — There's time for one last secondary road public hearing before the Virginia Department of Transportation's Hillsville residency closes.
Residency Administrator Bob Beasley appeared before the Carroll supervisors Jan. 11 to schedule the last such hearing before oversight is transferred to the Martinsville VDOT residency.
"I can't believe a year has gone by, but it has, and we now have to schedule another public hearing," Beasley told the supervisors.

Does Riri have her eye on a rapper?Comment on this story
Rihanna reportedly has the hots for rapper A$AP Rocky.
The 24-year-old 'We Found Love' hitmaker – who has recently been linked to Ashton Kutcher and ex-boyfriend Chris Brown – apparently flirted wildly with the 23-year-old star at Coachella last weekend.
According to reports, Rihanna spent the evening drinking with A$AP in the VIP area of the Californian festival, following his performance on Saturday night (14.04.12).
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Rihanna took a real shine to A$AP. She couldn't take her eyes off him. She hung around after his set to chat to him and seemed to be a big fan.
"They were getting stuck into champagne with mates before moving on to rum — they even asked a lackey to get ginger beer as a mixer for it.
"Rihanna asked A$AP about his gold teeth, joking that she'd love to get the same thing done."
The singer admits she has trouble when it comes to finding a man who can cope with her career - although she hasn't given up hope.
She said: "I feel like it's hard for everybody! I don't think it has anything to do with being famous. There's just a major drought out there.
"I guess I'm challenging, because my job seems to affect every relationship I have or try to have. Even with people I think should get it.
"That seems to be a big factor; it's always an issue. But I just need to find the person who balances me out, because then things like my schedule won't matter. I've done it before, so I know I can do it again." - Bang Showbiz

The Bosch HBL5450UC is a 30-inch single electric wall oven with an impressive number of convenient features, including 14 cooking modes, 30 pre-programmed settings in recipe mode and a built-in meat thermometer. It preheats quickly and is reported to reach the correct temperature settings. There are some reliability issues reported, which is problematic for a pricey appliance.
Good performance, but reliability issues. The Bosch HBL5450UC wall oven gets high ratings in professional tests with very good scores for both baking and broiling. It includes a convection feature and a number of pre-programmed recipe settings. It preheats quickly. User reviews for the Bosch HBL5450UC are generally positive, saying the oven is well made, easy to use and easy to clean, but we did see a couple of complaints about reliability. This is consistent with the findings of J.D. Power and Associates' latest customer-satisfaction survey for ovens, cooktops and ranges, which gives the Bosch brand as a whole only average ratings.
Decent size. The Bosch HBL5450UC is a 30-inch wall oven with a total capacity of 4.7 cubic feet. It comes with three oven racks and a broiling pan. It also has a large viewing window. The recessed broil element and hidden bake element increase the usable space of both the oven and the broiler.
Loaded with convenience. The Bosch HBL5450UC has a number of cooking modes in addition to the standard bake/broil. They include a convection feature, Sabbath mode, proof, delay-start and keep-warm modes; it's also equipped with a self-cleaning cycle, hidden bake element for easy cleanup, two oven lights and a temperature probe, which ensures that meats cook to the correct internal temperature. The oven, which is made of stainless steel, is backed by a one-year warranty.

|Hoover's sign is a predictor of airflow obstruction severity and is not related to hyperinflation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22075295 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|BACKGROUND: Several phenotypes are described in COPD.
OBJECTIVES: To assess if COPD patients with Hoover's sign (HS) belong to a particular phenotype.
METHODS: All consecutive COPD patients with varying degree of airflow obstruction that came for lung function testing in one university hospital were prospectively assessed, using clinical and magnetometer detection of HS, body mass index (BMI), St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire for health-related quality of life, six-minute-walk test (6MWT) with inspiratory capacity (IC) measurements and expiratory flow limitation (EFL) detection. Previous exacerbations were also reported.
RESULTS: 82 patients were studied. Magnetometers confirmed HS in 56 of them, of which 79% (44/56) were detected by clinical assessment. HS (+) patients were older (64±10 vs 59±10years, p=0.03), had a higher BMI (26±5 vs 23±4, p=0.04), a lower FEV1 (53%±18% vs 63%±18% pred, p=0.02) and a higher IC decrease at the end of 6MWT, (-19±2 vs -7±4% pred, p=0.003). A larger proportion of HS (+) patients also reported severe exacerbations during the past 2years (39% vs 12% p=0.01). There was no statistical evidence that HS was related to hyperinflation and/or EFL.
CONCLUSION: The very simple clinical HS allows identifying a particular population of COPD patients of older age and higher BMI with a more severe airflow obstruction, increased dynamic hyperinflation during exercise and higher exacerbation frequency. These characteristics were not linked to hyperinflation or EFL.

The Hansard Monologues
A Matter of Public Importance
A verbatim play by Katie Pollock and Paul Daley
"As she comes into this parliament it is almost as if she is trying to earn frequent liar points." The Hon. Tony Abbott MP, Federal Member for Warringah.
What will we remember about the 43rd Parliament of Australia? That it was supposed to be about us – but was it really just about them?
As the election nears, this verbatim play will prosecute the words of Hansard, the factual record of what our MPs say in parliament, to relive and recut the highs and lows, the ayes and nays of our national discourse.
In the tradition of The Vagina Monologues, A Matter of Public Importance will let our MPs speak for themselves. Each performance will also feature a guest star direct from Canberra!
This is the story of how our country makes itself, over and over again. Don't miss it. It is about you.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
I am a very easy going person who doesn't have a problem getting along with pretty much anyone. I try to keep a positive outlook on life and want to live it to the fullest. The only thing missing is someone to share it with.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I have finished all but two semesters of culinary school. A lot happened in my life the past year, including the loss of my father to cancer, so I am hoping to finish up some time this year. Other than that, I'm just trying to work hard and play just as hard.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Making people laugh, listening, back rubs, cooking and singing. Not necessarily in that order.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
My sense of humor and my kindness.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
I'm not much of a reader, but I do enjoy pretty much all genres of music and movies. There isn't much that I won't eat or at least try once. I am a cook so I have to keep an open mind about food. And since I am so passionate about food, I tend to watch a lot of Food Network when I get a chance. Most nights, that is what is on my TV at night. I also like watching CSI, NCIS and Criminal Minds.
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
Family, friends, good food, morning coffee, a good knife to work with in the kitchen, (I hate a dull knife!!!) :)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
New ideas and recipes for different dishes in the kitchen.
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Probably cooking at work. If not, then at home watching a good movie.
The most private thing I'm willing to admit
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I am willing to admit anything if you ask me.
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
If you see anything in my profile that intrigues you, or would like to know more about me that isn't already here. I am pretty much an open book when it comes to questions about me.

Tonight's contest against the Carolina Hurricanes is a must win for Winnipeg for two reasons:
Firstly, almost every game until the end of the season should be treated like a Game Seven as the Jets find themselves nipping at the heels of the final two Wild Card spots in the West.
And secondly, the Hurricanes aren't very good.
Game 57 @ Montreal: Montoya Performance & Neutral Zone Play

The Jets won a scrappy game in Montreal Sunday afternoon, playing a road game a way that you want it to be played: by controlling the puck more often and strong play in the neutral zone.

It was gritty, a little dull at times, featured some solid goaltending and a lot of board play. It was the type of road game we haven't seen the Jets put together in a long, long time. They managed to keep the Bell Centre crowd relatively quiet, and left Montreal with an all-important two points.

I'm back! I had to step aside to focus on my day job, but I've got a fresh bag of doritos and my writing jockeys on, so this is happening.
I haven't had a chance to watch much of the Jets 2.1 under Paul Maurice, but I did witness a bizarre twitter battle after the game in Montreal, in which the supporters of Mark Stuart and those who want to just feel good about the Jets (no one blames those people, the team is 8-2 under the new coach) were vicious in lashing out against those who had spoken about Stuart as a barrier to the team's success in the past. After two strong games in a row, supporters were vociferous about the value of the rugged blue liner. He took home second star, after all, and won the locker room 'Player of the Game' fighter pilot helmet. His team mates like him, and he's playing well.
With the deadline coming up, how do we evaluate the value of UFA Mark Stuart to the Jets? Is he turning a corner under Paul Maurice? What does he add to the club?

The Jets beat the Canadiens today in game more thrilling than the 2-1 score would indicate. The pace in Winnipeg's last few games has been quite uptempo, but today's contest also had a bit of an edge to it.

Syrian President Bashar Assad's top envoy on Tuesday said Damascus has agreed to give up its chemical arsenal in a bid to avert a possible U.S. strike, USA Today reported.
The government in Damascus on Monday "held a round of very fruitful negotiations with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and he put forward an initiative regarding chemical weapons. Already in the evening we accepted Russia's initiative," Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moualem said.
Assad's government acceded to the request in order to "derail the U.S. aggression," al-Moualem said.
France is developing a U.N. Security Council proposal aimed at implementing the Russian initiative, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius suggested the measure would serve to clarify the positions of Moscow and Beijing. The two governments so far have prevented the 15-nation body from approving punitive measures against Damascus for its tactics in the Syrian civil war, now in its third year.
It still was uncertain if Russia would agree to the French text, according to the Post. Moscow has questioned Western assertions that Assad's regime employed nerve gas last month in an attack that U.S. officials contend was responsible for more than 1,400 deaths.
President Obama, who is set to give a televised speech on Syria on Tuesday evening, on Monday said his administration "will pursue this diplomatic track."
"I fervently hope that this can be resolved in a nonmilitary way," he told Fox News in an interview -- one among a half-dozen television appearances the president made on Monday aimed at generating public and congressional support for his Syria approach.
"I have instructed John Kerry to talk directly to the Russians and run this to ground," Obama told the "PBS NewsHour." "And if we can exhaust these diplomatic efforts and come up with a formula that gives the international community a verifiable, enforceable mechanism to deal with these chemical weapons in Syria, then I'm all for it."
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Monday delayed a vote previously planned for Wednesday on authorizing the use of military force against Assad's regime.

Theoretical Nuclear Physics
Dr. Steve Weppner
|Students and faculty also collaborate in theoretical nuclear physics. The work is done by writing computer programs to "simulate" nuclear accelerators around the world. Students help write the programs and then visualize the results using a variety of graphical packages that we have available on campus. For example, in the past they have simulated the physics of protons "smashing" into helium atoms at high speeds. By comparing this with data collected from nuclear accelerators around the world scientists can understand better the nature of the nuclear force which powers the stars. Students have available to them to carry on this research an array of Sun Workstations (using SunOS) and personal computers (using Linux) located in the Advanced Scientific Computing Laboratory. Students recently have written an optical potential calculator which lets researchers from around the world execute the simulation

Metro-North Train Derails In Fatal Accident
Some outlets are reporting that the train was traveling faster than normal, though an official cause is yet to be confirmed. The New York Daily News has terrifying accounts from a few passengers who survived the incident, several of whom also speculated that the train was moving at an unusually high speed. Images show that the train narrowly missed even further tragedy, coming to a stop just feet from the water's edge.

Louisiana state Sen. Neil Riser, R-Columbia, is one of 14 candidates in the 5th Congressional District race. The special election to complete Republican U.S. Rep. Rodney Alexander's sixth term will be held Oct. 19. A runoff, if needed, will be held Nov. 16. Alexander resigned, effective Sept. 26, citing political gridlock in Washington. The day after he resigned, Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal named him head of the state Department of Veterans Affairs, effective Sept. 30. Alexander has endorsed Riser in the 5th District race.

MONROE, La. -- Louisiana state Sen. Neil Riser, one of 14 candidates in the special election for the Fifth Congressional District, said he entered politics because he was tired of being a bystander.
"I'm running for Congress for the same reason I ran for the state Senate (in 2007)," Riser, R-Columbia, said Wednesday during a meeting with The News-Star's Editorial Board. "I wasn't going to stay on the sidelines any more. I wanted to try to make a difference then and I want to make a difference now."

Morning and afternoon sessions will be held at the preserve, located at 5920 52nd Ave, Moline, next to the Rock River. The morning sessions are from 8 a.m. to noon and the afternoon sessions from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. There is no charge, but participants must register by filling out the form at the bottom of this article, or by contacting River Action at 563-322-2969 (firstname.lastname@example.com).

This is the first comprehensive biodiversity inventory to be done at the site and will help site managers in planning and evaluating conservation measures.
River Action is working with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to restore about eight acres of wetland and a stream at the preserve. The restoration is part of a Rock River Watershed project to reduce non-point source pollution, a leading cause of water quality degradation. The report from the biodiversity research will be used in the future as a basis to measure the effectiveness of site improvements.
Discover this local natural area while working with experts in identifying the living creatures that inhabit Green Valley Nature Preserve. You also can get involved by taking a natural history tour or a boat ride on the Rock River. Stay for lunch with music by Ellis Kell.
Reserve your spot on a team of experts today! Choose your area of interest and be a part of the action: plants, insects, reptiles/amphibians, soils or natural history. If in-depth scientific study is not your area of interest, reserve a spot in one of the many tours examining the natural history of this wild place, or register to take a boat ride on the Rock River.
Morning sessions from 8 a.m. to noon (unless noted otherwise below) include:

Nolan Ryan: Tigers' Justin Verlander is 'most dominating pitcher in the game'
Ace right-hander Justin Verlander has shouldered a heavy workload coming in a start in tonight's series opener.
Verlander led the majors in pitches thrown during the regular season with 3,941, 167 more than runner-up Dan Haren of the Los Angeles Angels. It was the most pitches thrown during the regular season since Livan Hernandez had 4,010 in 2005.
After a rain-shortened start in the opener of the division series, Verlander had 120 pitches in a Game 3 win. His velocity was in the high 90-mph range at the finish.
"He's the most dominating pitcher in the game right now," said Rangers' president and Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan. "He's unique in that he maintains his stuff throughout the game. That's a rare gift to be able to do that. The only pitchers throwing that hard in the ninth inning are closers."
Verlander admitted he was "more sore than unusual " after that start, with the soreness more in his body than his arm. He had a bullpen throwing session before Thursday's game.
"Everything felt normal," Verlander said. "I don't usually get sore. I just am blessed that way, I guess is abnormal."
Leyland never considered using Verlander in a relief role during the final game against the Yankees because the risk of injury was too great. Verlander said "it was definitely tough" to watch the game knowing he would not participate.
In the post-game celebration, Leyland sidled up to Verlander and said "You never trust your skipper, do you? It worked out all right, didn't it?"

The Mediation Center of the Pacific provides mediation for a broad variety of issues and case types.
Divorce: Mediators assist parties with property division, child custody and visitation, and other issues involved in marital separation. Mediators also help the parties walk through the divorce decree to ensure that they have addressed all issues and are able to finalize the divorce on their own.
Adult Guardianship: Families faced with the decisions such as where aging parents should live, how finances should be managed and who should provide direct care, are assisted by experienced mediators in addressing and resolving these questions.
Family Business Disputes: Small family owned businesses often foster unique problems from blending personal and business ties. Through mediation, agreements can be reached and relationships preserved.
Juvenile Restitution: The Mediation Center receives referrals from probation officers and the Juvenile Crime Prevention Department of the Honolulu Police Department that requires victims and juveniles to meet face to face to work out some form of restitution.
Neighbors: Mediators handle almost every conceivable type of situation or problem between neighbors. Many cases are self-referred, although police, neighborhood boards, friends and others, also send cases that include barking dogs, loud noise, rubbish, parking spaces and overhanging trees.
Paternity: Mediators assist parties who are not married, but who have a child or children together, resolve issues of custody, visitation, back child support, and health insurance. These cases are court-ordered from Family Court, or are self-referred or attorney-referred. Some paternity cases may also be mediated on-site at Family Court in Kapolei.
Probate: A number of mediators are trained to resolve estate disputes in cases before the Probate Court. Agreements can be reached and family relations preserved.
Temporary Restraining Order (TRO): The Mediation Center, in collaboration with the District Court judges, initiated a TRO Mediation Program so that mediators can assist the parties in resolving the underlying issues or reaching an agreement on how to stay away from each other. Some TRO cases may also be mediated on-site at Honolulu District Court.
Employment/Job Related: These conflicts result from personality clashes, discrimination, wrongful termination and sexual harassment, as well as employment disagreements, discipline and office atmosphere, downsizing and cultural differences.
Civil Rights Complaints: The Mediation Center receives referrals involving various types of discrimination and ADA complaints filed with the Hawaii Civil Rights Commission (HCRC).
Consumers and Merchants: These matters include billing disputes, contract clauses, poor merchandise or service, etc. Many of these cases will end up in court if not resolved beforehand through mediation. The Better Business Bureau (BBB) also refers cases to the Mediation Center.
Landlord/Tenant: Disputes regarding payment of rent, deposits and damage can be resolved directly at the Mediation Center rather than filing a complaint at District Court, although some landlord/tenant cases are also mediated on-site at District Court.
