Past leaders of the Archdiocese of Detroit (from 1937)
2009 to present: Archbishop Allen Vigneron. A Michigan native, he previously served as Bishop of Oakland, Calif., and rector of Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit.
1990-2009: Cardinal Adam Maida. A Pittsburgh-area native who studied at the Catholic Orchard Lake schools, Maida was previously Bishop of Green Bay, Wis. He was made a cardinal by Pope John Paul II in 1994.
1981-90: Cardinal Edmund Szoka. He was made a cardinal by John Paul II in 1988. In 1987, he brought the Polish pope to Detroit for a visit. Later, he was named to two Vatican posts before retiring in 2006.
1959-81: Rhode Island native Cardinal John Dearden was a noted participant in the Second Vatican Council, under Pope John XXIII, which ushered in modern styles of worship and increased roles for laypeople. He was made a cardinal by Pope Paul VI in 1969. He voted in the conclaves to elect Pope John Paul I and Pope John Paul II in 1978. Dearden died in 1988.
1937-58: Cardinal Edwin Mooney was the first leader of Detroit to be named an archbishop and the first to be named a prince of the church, tapped by Pope Pius XII in 1948. Mooney died in 1958 in Rome, just hours before the start of the conclave to elect Pope John XXIII.

NEW YORK — Jim Thome's 20th season ended on a sour note when he struck out looking in the ninth inning Saturday night to finish 1 for 10 in the Twins' three-game loss to the New York Yankees in the American League Division Series.
Still, it was hard to erase a season's worth of positive vibes for the slugger, whose 25 home runs pushed his career total to 589 — eighth on the all-time list.
The pending free agent said he would discuss his future with his family but was leaning toward returning for a 21st season.
"Yeah, I think I'm going to come back," he said.
Gardy shuffles lineup: Twins manager Ron Gardenhire shuffled his lineup for Game 3 but didn't remove anyone from it.
He moved Jason Kubel into the cleanup spot and put Michael Cuddyer in the No. 7 hole where Kubel had been for the first two games. Delmon Young, the previous No. 4 hitter in the ALDS, moved down to fifth, and Thome, who batted fifth in Games 1 and 2, hit sixth.
Gardenhire said he felt comfortable reorganizing his lineup for Game 3 because he routinely started a left-handed hitter behind Mauer against a right-handed starting pitcher throughout the regular season. One thing he never did during the 2010 regular season, though, was bat Cuddyer — 2 for 7 with a double, a homer and two runs batted in during the first two games of the ALDS — seventh.
Kubel went 0 for 4 with three walks in the first two games of this series, making him an .
"With a right-hander out there, when (Joe) Mauer's up, they have a tendency to pitch around him a lot with a base open," Gardenhire said. "Kubel jerks the ball a little bit more, and with Thome they move the defense around so much, it's a little screwed up. With Kubs, it's normal and he'll get a chance to jerk a ball through that hole."
Gardenhire decided against something he said Friday he was considering — starting Alexi Casilla at shortstop in place of J.J. Hardy. He stuck with Hardy, Gardenhire said, for the shortstop's defensive consistency and his track record in hit-and-run situations, a tactic the manager was hoping to employ in Game 3 after his team went 0 for 10 with runners in scoring position in Games 1 and 2.
There is a balance, Gardenhire said, between the right changes and too many changes. And beyond those tweaks — putting on the hit and run, making the usual managerial decisions and offering up encouragement — the manager said it's up to the players.
"As a manager, you write the lineups out there and they've got to go out there and get it done," he said. "Players have to win the ballgame. They have to get the hits and they have to pitch. All the rah- rah stuff you want to do, but the bottom line is when they get the one-on-one confrontation out there with a pitcher, they have to come up with a hit."
Morneau's absence felt: For the second straight year the Twins made it to the postseason without Justin Morneau, and for the second straight year, they were unable to advance without him.
So is Morneau's absence felt even more in the playoffs than in the regular season?
"He's an MVP so you definitely miss him, but we haven't had him for so long that it's past that," Gardenhire said. "There's no doubt he means a lot to our lineup and our ballclub because he's a pretty tough guy. But like I said, we've been playing a long time without him, so you can't use that as anything other than that we wish we had him here."
Morneau has played in the postseason twice in his big league career: the 2004 ALDS against New York and the 2006 ALDS against the A's. In those seven games, he batted .310 (9 for 29) with three doubles, two home runs and four RBI.
Hurry up and wait: The Twins had an 8:37 p.m. EST first pitch on Saturday, and Gardenhire was not a fan of the late start and all the waiting around that came with it. "Brutal," he said. "I left the hotel at 1:30, got here at 2, been sitting here since. It's a long day, long day."

Jennifer A. Pietenpol, Ph.D., is the Director of the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center, the Benjamin F. Byrd, Jr. Professor of Molecular Oncology, and Professor of Biochemistry, Cancer Biology and Otolaryngology. Pietenpol's research focuses on breast cancer and the p53 family signaling network—the most frequently targeted network for mutation in human tumors. Recently, Pietenpol has integrated her research expertise in tumor suppressor genes and molecular genetics with bioinformatic analysis of high dimensional genomic data sets to molecularly subtype difficult-to-treat, triple negative breast cancer. Her results are being translated to clinical trials and alignment of patients to appropriate, molecularly targeted therapy. Her research has impacted many areas of science and medicine and she has translated her discoveries into clinical impact for breast cancer patients. Pietenpol's research is funded by the National Cancer Institute, the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation, and the Department of Defense Breast Cancer Program.
In 2008, the President appointed Pietenpol to a six-year term on the National Cancer Advisory Board. Also, Dr. Pietenpol serves on the external advisory boards for eight NCI Comprehensive Cancer Centers and leads two as Chair. In 2011, Pietenpol was appointed as member of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation Scientific Advisory Committee and as a member of the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research Advisory Committee. Recently, Dr. Pietenpol completed a three-year, elected term on the AACR Board of Directors. This year she will begin a three-year term as a Member of the Institute of Medicine, National Cancer Policy Forum.
In 1997, Pietenpol received the Burroughs Wellcome New Investigator Award in Toxicology; in 2004, she was honored with the Excellence in Teaching Award at Vanderbilt for her mentoring of graduate and medical students. She was inducted into the Johns Hopkins Society of Scholars (2009) and received the Carleton College Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award in 2011. In 2012, she was elected as a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science for outstanding contributions to the field of cancer research, particularly the involvement of signaling networks in breast and other cancers.
After graduating from Carleton with honors in biology and as a member of Sigma Xi, Pietenpol earned a Ph.D. in cell biology at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in 1990. She continued her postgraduate training at Johns Hopkins Oncology Center (now Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center) before returning to Vanderbilt in 1995 as an assistant professor of biochemistry. She achieved the rank of full professor in 2002. Pietenpol has served as associate editor or on the editorial board for numerous biomedical research journals. She has authored or co-authored over 120 articles published in the peer-reviewed scientific literature.

Research Specialty
p53 family signaling axis (p53, p63, and p73); Breast Cancer; Mechanisms of tumor suppression and epithelial cell differentiation
Research Description
Some defining properties of tumor cells are increased cell proliferation, decreased cell death and genomic instability. These characteristics are acquired as a consequence of mutations in genes that control the fidelity and frequency of cell division as well as the ability of the cell to initiate pathways of apoptosis. A goal of the ongoing cancer-based research in the Pietenpol Laboratory is to provide new therapeutic approaches that specifically target the molecular interactions and biochemical pathways that are changed in tumor cells. The Laboratory was one of the first to pioneer chromatin immunoprecipatation techniques allowing analysis of p53 and identification of target genes involved in tumor suppression. They discovered that p63 signaling confers key epithelial properties to cells by regulating novel target genes and transcriptional programs controling mesenchymal phenotypes. Subsequently, the Pietenpol group began mechanistic studies on p73, deciphered the functional p73 binding sites in the genome, discovered numerous p73-target mRNAs and microRNAs, and was the first to link the mTOR signaling pathway to regulation of p73 activity. Importantly, the research defined a mTOR-p73 signaling pathway involved in mesenchymal differentiation and a resulting p73 gene signature that classifies rhabdomyosarcomas by subtype and patient outcome. Most recently, Pietenpol and her team have integrated research expertise in tumor suppressor genes and molecular genetics with bioinformatic analysis of high dimensional genomic data sets to molecularly subtype difficult-to-treat, triple negative breast cancer. The results are being translated to clinical trials and alignment of patients to appropriate, molecularly targeted therapy. The overall goals of her research are to use bench-based discoveries to advance patient care.

Like most consumers, supermarket price wars
leave you confused as to who really is the cheapest but Asda have trumped the
others with the launch of its new price guarantee website. It's both a clever
initiative but also a gamble.
It could save them millions in TV ads if it
takes off and establishes the brand firmly as the best value supermarket but it
also commits them to constantly outsmarting the others. The Asda site compares
a basket with Tesco, Sainsbury and Morrisons, I doubt they'd dare compare to
Aldi, but claims Asda will come out best on 96% of baskets. Personally my
experience of Asda is my basket price has been cheaper.
This is one of five initiatives the Walmart
owned brand are launching to position the brand as a price-plus player. Tescos
and Sainburys have both turned in massive profits recently and the competition
for the pound in our pocket is certainly benefiting us financially, especially
if you are a student and living off pizza and lager. The World Cup will see a
big price fight on booze.
Tesco and Asda are already involved in
aggressive loss leader beer discounting, Tesco has a ÂŁ10 deal selling many
brands for less than 50p a can while Asda have gone for a ÂŁ9 deal. With the
World Cup still 6 weeks away this may well be causing concerns with those
already concerned about Booze Britain.
Of course a price war isn't always good for
suppliers as supermarkets are in the profit game not providing a social
service. The Action Aid "Who Pays?" campaign of several years ago challenged
the supermarkets to be transparent about who was paying for the discounts. Of
course it was the suppliers and that was passed down to third world farmers.
The campaign was very successful in it actually forced supermarkets to change
their ways. Sainsbury was quick to take the hit on bananas and highlighted the fact
in their ads.
You also have to question how, when
supermarkets charge 2.5 times cost price, they can buy some products so cheap
without exploitation. A recent report by the Committee on Agriculture &
Rural Development calls for better prices for farmers. Not surprisingly it's gone
done like a lead balloon with supermarkets who have criticised it for being one
As the recession hit hard we saw the Aldi
effect as middle class shoppers jumped in their MPVs and headed for Aldi, Lidl,
Iceland and Netto but it seems as confidence returns so shoppers are returning
back to the major supermarkets, a drop from 12% to 7% of shoppers buying
bargain basement food.
And finally a word about the decline of
Organics. The Soil Association has done a great job of positioning Organics as
a quality badge, getting consumers to see it as premium price product that
tastes better. Our own research (over 1000 shoppers) proved few were buying it
for ethical reasons, it's posh food for wealthy middle class shoppers. Which
was great as retailers creamed in the profits until the recession hit and sales
plummeted 12%. Of course it didn't help that a government backed report claimed
that many organics tasted no better than non organics. The Soil Association and
a number of organic suppliers are fighting back and plan to use an ad campaign
to win back consumers. The usual blind hope that advertising is a magic wand to
solve what is a complex strategic marketing problem. Best of luck to them.
Of course some Organic categories are still
growing, meat and kids. Ella's Kitchen have seen massive growth, 174% last
year, as mothers are moving towards organics for their kids because of the
appeal of purer, more natural chemical and additive free products.
Firstly I'd get the price down, that's the
key reason they lost sales. Second I'd highlight chemical free (though that's
not actually true). And third I'd design a decent logo, the Organic logo is the
worse logo of all time, the Tesco's one is more on the mark. I can not
understand why the Soil Association has not done this already.
If they want to win back consumers they
need to be brave, smart (and please avoid recipe cards). It's a tough sell as
it's an emotional one not a rational one. I hate to be a cynic but I fear lots
of meetings later, lots of number crunching, lots of money spent and they won't
sell any extra.

Texas Starter Comes to Relief of El Centro
El Centro de la Familia will operate through 2008 thanks in major part to the generosity of a major leaguer.
El Centro volunteer Martitha May, who canvassed local Hispanic businesses looking for donations to help raise the nearly $78,000 needed to keep the operation going for another year, played the drama for ultimate impact at Tuesday's Kitsap County Board of Health meeting.
At a point when nearly everyone in the room was itching to leave, May announced that Texas Ranger starting pitcher Vicente Padilla had written a check for $25,000 to El Centro, an amount that guarantees it will exist through 2008.
Until last month El Centro, which provides education on health services, nutrition and infant care to local Hispanic families, was on the health district's chopping block as one of many services not mandated by the state and underfunded. In August, the United Way of Kitsap County came forward with a $40,000 challenge grant.
By Tuesday, there was more than $22,000 in a Kitsap Credit Union account, enough to fund the program through the end of the year.
May told the board she had canvassed local businesses and rounded up $1,750. Then she said she had contacted her friend, Padilla, and that he had agreed to contribute. She showed the $25,000 check to board members.
May sprung the donation on the board late in the meeting after two board members had left. The other four appeared anxious to leave.
Jan Angel, Kitsap County Commissioner and health board chairwoman, said she had "goose bumps" and later wrote a $100 check of her own.
Padilla grew up in Nicaragua and pitched for his home country in the 1998 World Cup. May said she knows him through her cousin and that he played for her hometown team in Culiacan, Mexico.
"He told me, 'Martitha, I will help you,'" May said after springing the surprise on the board.
Kitsap Sun attempts to reach Padilla on Tuesday were unsuccessful.
Padilla pitched six shutout innings to get a victory Tuesday in the first game of a doubleheader in Detroit, but no one in Bremerton was talking about baseball.
Until Tuesday, the United Way's gesture had put the fundraising total at $22,414, an amount Health District Director Scott Lindquist had earlier said would guarantee El Centro's operation for the rest of 2007.
With the United Way's match of Padilla's donation, it puts the total just $1,800 shy of the final goal.
Beyond 2008 is a bigger question for El Centro. Lindquist spent much of Tuesday's meeting discussing the health district's difficulty in providing services not mandated or funded by the state.
"This issue will continue to come up with this program because it's a non-mandated service," he said. "The bigger issue is where will this service find a permanent home."
The board also agreed to close an office in Poulsbo that offered immunizations one day a week and family-planning services another day each week. Lindquist said those services could be offered at less cost by renting other locations in North Kitsap.
The board agreed to close the Poulsbo site on Oct. 15. But it scheduled that closure after its next meeting in case Poulsbo Mayor Kathryn Quade or others provide substantial cause to keep it open at the board's next meeting on Oct. 9.

Militants kill Yemeni deputy governorComment on this story
Sanaa - Suspected al Qaeda militants shot dead the deputy governor of Yemen's central province of al-Bayda on Tuesday, a security official said.
Adel al-Asbahi, the provincial security chief of al-Bayda, said on the Defence Ministry website that armed men fired on Hussein Dayyan as he was leaving his home. Provincial officials said they fled on motorcycles.
The officials said they believed the assailants were militants linked to al Qaeda, and that security forces were hunting for them.
Elsewhere, a Yemeni soldier was shot dead by two assailants who were on a motorcycle near the airport of the capital Sanaa, a military source said.
Yemen has in turmoil since mass pro-democracy demonstrations in 2011 forced President Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down after 33 years in office. Yemeni authorities have since struggled to rein in rival political factions and tribes, southern separatists and Islamist insurgents.
Al Qaeda militants have stepped up their attacks against local security and government officials in recent months.
Restoring stability to Yemen is a global concern. The impoverished country of 25 million people shares a long border with Saudi Arabia, the world's top oil exporter.
Al-Bayda has suffered security incidents in the past. In December, 15 people on their way to a wedding were killed by an air strike after their party was apparently mistaken for an al Qaeda convoy, according to local officials.
The Yemeni government said in a statement at the time that senior al Qaeda militants were targeted in the air strike.
The statement did not say who carried out the air attack. The U.S. military goes after Islamist militants in Yemen with aerial drone strikes, but does not comment on the practice.

"I plan to lose 40 pounds on the Mayo Clinic Diet. George at the office lost 40 pounds on it, and his friend Bonnie lost 50 pounds!"
Here is another diet myth, but I feel compelled to discuss it here.
We've all heard of it, and I bet many of you have tried the Mayo Clinic Diet. But did you know there is no such thing as a Mayo Clinic Diet?!
About every decade, the rotation diet - eat like a bird for a few days, then eat anything you want for a few days -- makes the rounds at the office claiming miraculous results. I feel the need to discuss it here because anytime you go on any rapid weight loss diet, you risk losing valuable muscle. Remember the previous myth analogy of muscle being your Rolls Royce? And when you lose muscle, you also lose your revved-up metabolism.
So, follow the rule of losing 1/2 pound to 1 pound a week through a low fat, lower calorie diet, exercise aerobically and weight train, and you will be safely losing fat and preserving your valuable muscle tissue. It may take longer than quick weight loss diets such as the mythical "Mayo Clinic Diet," but your results will last longer and be healthier on your system.

Excellent review, spot on.
The only thing that bothered me in this game is the shoulder view scenes (WAY too slow) and the few ones where you're forced in 1st person view to find something. Oh, and the way you get upgrades. Come on, there had to be a better way.
Apart from that I disagree with people complaining about Samus' character and the missile and health charge. What's the big deal to recover your health and missiles focusing like that? Like someone said here, finding energy containers and missiles inside monsters is just as awkward, if not more.
The story may be a bit cheesy but in my opinion it added an interesting character depth and it develops really well as you progress in the game. The controls are a bit difficult at first but when you get used to it the combats get really exciting and fast, with awesome new moves.
I loved the cinematographic feel of the game, not only because of the cutscenes but also the camera angles and things that happen unexpectedly while you're playing.

Best was founded in the 1930's in the USA by Neil Tillotson after he discovered that hardened polymers did not have as many advantages as natural rubber latex. He spent his life innovating in this field.
Best remained at the forefront of the industry, manufacturing many types of different gloves and inventing others, including the first wrinkle free-finished rubber coated glove in 1960. This was followed a decade later by the invention and introduction of the very first chemical resistant PVC gloves.
In 1990 Best introduced the first latex-free examination glove, followed in 2003 by the first ever accelerator-free disposable glove. Accelerator free gloves do not contain natural rubber latex and powder, and this in turn reduces the occurrence of type one allergies. A Type 1 allergy is the reaction to a specific allergen.
In 2005 the sponge nitrile glove was introduced. This coating ensures the best possible grip and dexterity when working with oily surfaces.
In 2007 Best was bought by Showa, a Japanese glove manufacturer. This significantly increased the portfolio of both companies as Showa is at the forefront of glove technology in Asia.
Showa invented the first PVC glove in 1950 and introduced this technology into the manufacturing of gloves for fisherman. The 1980's saw the invention of the first seamless knit glove by Showa, followed by a number of innovative applications like oil resistant PVC gloves and the launch of polyurethane /nylon gloves in 1985.
"We never imitate" is the slogan and ethos by which Best produces their products. Innovation has been central to the success of the business thus far. Their aim is to always find the perfect balance between comfort, application, performance, ergonomics and durability.
Not only do Best offer the highest quality protection for your hands, but they also have active strategies in place to ensure that their production techniques are in harmony with the environment. This goal is achieved by their environmental policy, matching international standards, and very strict quality control procedures.

Chapter 11: Layla v.s Dustin
Dustin watched from the kitchen as hell hounds broke through his living room floor.Then Death rose from the cracks and laughing evilly.Layla smiled and stood in front of Death.
"Death fusion!",she shouted as Death began to absorb into Layla's body. Her black hair grew longer,her eyes full of the curse had suddenly became darker.Death's scythe formed into her hand and black flames surrounded it,swirling around her body. Her genkey symbol slowly faded,then changed into a skull with blood stained bones,forming an "x".
"D-Dustin..I'm sorry f-for this..",her voice trailed off as she charged towards Dustin.
She swung her scythe around,Dustin dodging every swing.Layla raised up the scythe and swung it downwards,causing a slight gash in Dustin's shoulder.
"Ah! Shit!",he back flipped over a table and ran towards the glass door.
Layla did a eerie battle cry and pushed Dustin through the window,causing the crystal-clear glass to shatter and Dustin landed on his back.
"Layla! Get the fuck-stop this!!",he yelled at her and managed to push her off and stood up.
He backed away from her and felt a pain in his back but ignored it.
The genkey on his neck glowed and green dust flowed from it and swirled around his body.His clothes changed to black baggy pants,black boots with no shirt,a large genkey symbol appeared on his chest.His hair grew shoulder-length and his purple eyes turned green. A large green katana shaped into his hand and his stared at it.
Layla had gotten up and spun her scythe in a circle and stopped it when it was pointed towards Dustin.
"Look Layla..i don't want to fight you...",Dustin said softly.
"Dustin..the only way to s-stop th-this curse is to...k-kill me..",Layla uncontrollably lashed at Dustin.
He blocked each attack with his katana and backed away to a tree and jumped on a tree branch.
He sighed and looked at Layla,"snake snake...spider spider...".
The genkey symbol on his chest floated off and stayed in the air,ten snakes and ten black widow spiders flowed out of it and slithered and crawled towards Layla.
"Death cage!",Layla's scythe glowed black and a large cage captured all of Dustin's magic creatures and tighten around them.
"Shadow explosion!",she yelled and the cage exploded,sending green dust to fly everywhere.
Dustin and Layla glared at each other and didn't break eye contact.
"Layla...I'm sorry...",Dustin said softly.
"...I'm sorry too Dustin....",Layla said.
They both charged at each other,their weapons pointed at each other hearts.
They clashed weapons and an explosion happened.
Dust swirled around the entire backyard and the dust began to cleared.

Clipper Round the World Yacht Race 11-12 update from crew member Lisa Blair representing Queensland on Gold Coast Australia.
Gold Coast Australia wins second stage of Clipper 11-12 Round the World Yacht Race
Gold Coast Australia has now been racing for five weeks. The anticipation is building as we near the end of the second race from Madeira to Rio de Janeiro after being at sea for 17 days. Our experience so far includes the doldrums or the ITCZ as it is officially called, a torn medium weight Spinnaker, getting many visits from the varied wildlife ranging from gannets and boobies (the bird) to the giants of the ocean, the Humpback whale. We were also continuing to experience the breathtaking night skies with millions of stars to helm by dotted with so many shooting stars that you run out of wishes to make as we sailed in the forgiving trade winds
As we began to close in on the finish line with less than 400 nautical miles to go we started to complete some of our maintenance so that there would not be so much to complete in port. We began by servicing the winches, adding yet more chafe prevention to the ropes and running repairs, polishing the stainless steel and rubbing out the old charts. The crew's morel was high as the conversations continually returned to food as we all debated what our first meal ashore will be and what we have missed when at sea. For me it was apple pie and custard and a fresh salad. Others craved diet coke, sleep, computers and mobile phones. I am continually amazed at how easy it is for the crew's to leave the technology behind for weeks but as soon as we near the shoreline they are all chomping at the bit to text their friends and update their status on Facebook. Or maybe that is just one crew member who talked non-stop about it. As for weather we still had three days left until Rio and the winds are light however there was a forecasted weather system that was likely to bring some wind with it.
With the light breeze Yorkshire gained 10 nautical miles on us however once the winds filled in that evening Gold Coast Australia hoisted our heavy weight Spinnaker and began increasing our lead once again. By the end of day 18 we held a 75 nautical mile lead on Yorkshire and a 110 nautical mile lead on Singapore, with less than 300 nautical miles to go until Rio things were looking good. The next day was rather uneventful until the evening closed in and the stars started to shine. We were expecting to come close to the Pampo Oil field in approximately six hours and to be able to see the glow from the lights in approximately two hours.
The second last night at sea this race was filled with excitement that began with me being awoken by the sound of a Jumbo Jet in the crew quarters as a huge wave picked us up and flung us down its face like we weighed no more than a feather. I could do nothing but brace myself in my bunk by wedging my arms and legs in the sides and hope for the best. I really felt that we were going to broach and the hull was vibrating uncontrollably with the wave that was showing us little mercy. The incredible roar of the wave seemed to go on forever but it was properly only seconds and eventually stoped. Later I found out that the winds had increased to average 30 knots and we were still flying our heavy weight Spinnaker and managed to go 23 knots on that big wave. Rich Hewson the Skipper said that he was regularly getting 20 knots. Dan Aspinall, who was also on deck that night, said that half the boom was buried in the water and there was just so much white wash that you could not see the bow at all.
This was all during my off watch time and because I am often one of the helmsman I was trying to get some sleep as the conditions would require a lot of concentration to helm. Once again I am lying in my bunk when I heard the Spinnaker go flap, flap, flap, bang!… 'All hands on deck', was shouted by Rich quickly followed by a string of orders. 'Sheet in', 'turn the deck lights on', 'ready the halyard for a drop', 'all free hands to the leeward rail to receive'. Yes, you guessed it, we had blown another Spinnaker. I think that Rich is starting to earn his nick name 'shredder'. While this string of commands was going on the other two watches were all struggling out of there bunks and trying to find there life jackets and get up on deck. Eventually everyone was up on deck in their PJ's clipped on at the bow trying to retrieve our seconds shredded Spinnaker that had unfortunately wrapped it's self around the inner forestay many times and was refusing to come down easily. Almost an hour later we had managed to retrieve the Spinnaker and get it safely down below however we are now bare headed which is no good on a race boat so the Yankee 2 was hoisted.
There was little sense in trying to get more sleep as I was to begin watch in one hour and I had so much adrenalin pumping through my body that sleep would have evaded me anyhow so I enjoyed our now bright horizon as we crept up on the Pampo Oil field. When we passed these Riggs the light that they gave out was amazing. There was this ship like structure that rose high out of the water decorated with a million lights that would make any Christmas tree jealous and at the very top there was a small pulsing flame. It made for a very stunning view that accompanied us until dawn.
From looking at the remaining nautical miles we were expecting to reach Rio the following day however with 50 nautical miles to go the wind disappeared leaving us to sit like ducks in a pond in sight of land. With the sunset that evening came the wind and we were finally able to make some ground towards Rio. Unfortunately for us the wind was coming straight from the bow so it was tack, tack, tack, through the night with all the crew getting very little sleep on the rail. At 0510 in the morning Gold Coast Australia crossed the finish line with our boat song 'Welcome to the land down under' by Men at Work blaring from the speakers under the welcome shelter of Sugar Loaf Mountain and the iconic Christ Statue, Corcovado. The last received sked before this said that we held a massive 140 nautical mile lead on Yorkshire with Singapore another 30 nautical miles behind. The last boat in the fleet was 700 nautical miles behind.
For us onboard Gold Coast Australia the excitement continues right until the very end as once we had packed away all of the sails and hoisted the sponsorship flags the engine decided that it was done and stopped… Turns out it was the impeller so a quick repair as we drifted by Rich and we could finally make port. The Champaign was popped and the beer was flowing as we celebrated our second win in as many races as 0600 in the morning. A well deserved beer I would say.

Godspeed, brothers and sisters. You fought the good fight. Now rest in peace…
Police Officer Nicholas Sloan, Line of Duty DeathOfficer Down: Nicholas Sloan - [Saint Louis, Missouri]

St. Louis Police Department
End of Watch: Friday, January 30th, 2004
Date of Incident: Friday, January 30th, 2004
Age: 24 Years
Tour of Duty: 3 Years
Weapon Used: Officer's handgun
Suspect Info: Dennis E. Hathorn, 31; of Centreville, Illinois was then shot to death by the officer's partner.
During a plain clothes weed and seed operation a suspected drug dealer disarmed, shot and killed St. Louis police officer Nicholas Sloan outside a liquor store on Friday, January 30th, 2004 at about 12:50 p.m. The officer's partner Gabriel Keithley was shot in the hip, shoulder and stomach before fatally shooting the suspect. Police Chief Mokwa said both wore body armor but were hit above and below it. The fatal shot clipped Sloan's bullet resistant vest, he explained.
Witnesses told police the 31 year old suspect appeared to have sold drugs out of a car before the officers approached. The man got out of the car and was arrested but then violently resisted and managed to grab Sloan's gun and fire.
Officer Nicholas Sloan, 24, was the son of Sgt. Terry Sloan, a 31-year department veteran and head of the city's vice squad and is also survived by his 13-month old child and girlfriend.
"This is an extreme tragedy for the department and all law-abiding citizens of the city of St. Louis," Mayor Francis Slay said. "There's not a whole lot you can tell the family of a police officer who has been shot, and one of whom has been killed."

Bonnie & Maggie Ask are new additions to the PAWH (Pets Assisting With Healing) team on the St. Paul campus. With Bonnie's help, Maggie has become a registered therapy dog through the Delta Society. Last week, Bonnie & Maggie assisted occupational therapist Emily DeBreto with one of her sessions. Emily's patient was working on handwriting and grasping skills with a writing tool. To make the session fun and interesting, Emily asked the patient to interview Bonnie about Maggie. After the patient finished her interview, she turned it into a story and wrote it on paper. This patient learned sentence-building without even knowing it!
Huge thanks to Bonnie and Maggie!

Let me see if I can put this into perspective for you.
Producers: Alright Denise. This next Star Trek series is going to be very different from the original. You are going to be one of Star Trek's most bada** characters because you're going to be manning the tactical station onboard the Federation flagship, a position that would make any tactical officer jealous. Your character has been trained physically and mentally to handle all kinds of situations. In short, when things go bad, everyone will look to you.

Yar: I wish I could help you, Captain.
Yar: *On the verge of tears* ...Well, I, er. It sounds strange, but I'm in a penalty box.
Yar: I'm certain I could disable their ship with a phaser burst, Captain.
Picard: And then, Lieutenant?
Yep. Her character isn't some idiot ball who makes dumb suggestions only to be put down by our enlightened Captain Picard now, is she? I'm honestly surprised she didn't leave sooner. The only reason she wanted to come back was becayse the whole creative team behind TNG had drastically changed after season 2. The poison that was Maurice Hurley was gone, Gene Roddenberry didn't have as much control over the series due to his health, and Michael Piller took on the role as head writer.

Linda Thompson, assistant San Juan County CEO, appeared before the Bloomfield City Council to make a case for continuing the funding.
Her message was as clear the need for funding was increasingly familiar: continue funding for emergency services.
"Once it is passed — if it is passed — this year, March 12, it will become a permanent tax," Thompson said.
"These services have vastly improved the quality of (life. It is) a very, very important tax that represents the difference between life and death," Mayor Scott Eckstein said. "I am not a fan of raising taxes, except this one."
Councilman Pat Lucero agreed: "I want to underscore what the mayor said. Public safety is imperative to this community."
And Councilman Curtis Lynch added: "We gotta have it. If you live in San Juan County and haven't used it, at some point, you will."
The gross-receipts sales tax that supports the county's 911 call center and EMS ambulance services costs the individual less than 1 cent of every $5 spent. The sales tax was implemented in 2003.
The 2013 fiscal-year budget for the call center and EMS is $8.7 million, up by nearly a million from the previous year's budget, said Marcella Brashear, the county's financial officer.
Without continuance of the tax, emergency operations would face a loss of personnel that would mean greatly reduced levels of service. The call center currently enploys 48 workers.
"With emergency calls, seconds count," Thompson said.
Emergency calls have increased 70 percent in the last decade. In 2011, 14,000 calls came into the call center. The bulk of those calls were medical at 33 percent and trauma at 23 percent.
When we call an ambulance we expect those services to be there.
We need to maintain the quality of the services by continuing the tax, Thompson said.
"The nice thing is that anyone who comes to our county and spends money — not just property owners — pays for these services, she said.
Census numbers for 2010 show the population grew nearly 15 % in San Juan County.
"As the population grows, the need for emergency services grows along with it," Thompson said. "It's absolutely critical EMS continue to be funded."
