I am running these cables on a Kenwood deck with 4 Volt RCA outs for front, rear, and sub to a 5 channel Fosgate amp. These cables are a little on the expensive side, but if you want quality of sound, and a clean look at both ends, and a single wire to run this is for you. I am more than happy with the quality this provides. Zero noise, and good quality connectors which are labeled at both ends to avoid confusion. The wire in the middle is about the same size as a 4 guage power wire. most people worry more about which amp and what sub and how many rms, but if you dont have a good quality rca to deliver the input you've shot yourself in the foot. Dont cheap out on the wires.

I changed from cheap RCA cables to this monster cable. I was trying to get rid of noise coming from electrical system. It did that but was getting intermittent noise. Turns out the rca cables were not tight. I used a pair of pliers to tighten one of them and broke the end of the connector when barely bending it. May have been my fault, but it was a problem.

I have been running these RCA's for 3 years now and still work perfect. Originally I ordered this set cause I was running a Rockford 5 channel. I just recently ugraded my system to a much larger system ( 4x the power) and decided to try these RCA's again. I have absolutly no noise in my system! I had some with the previous, but I think it may have been a ground. Only complaint, is that the junction point is pretty close, so hard to run my pac lc1 gain knob. Will end up ordering the two channel version of these.

Easy to install, all connectors are short, color coded, its like a 4AWG power cable. Overall I´m pleased with its results, compared with a few other cables and decided to stay with these!

Watching You
the future, New Yorkers may be able to eavesdrop on their
representatives with a touch of the remote
television has opened a window into the lives of some of our
more eccentric, interesting, and in some cases despicable
celebrities. Millions have watched the dysfunctional Osbornes
lumber around their mansion, chronic bankruptee Donald Trump
fire overambitious losers, and the fortune-by-crime Gotti
family exercise their accents. But what if New Yorkers could
tune in to something that directly affects their liveswould
they actually watch it?
Members of the New York State Assembly are looking into a
C-SPAN-like New York channel. C-SPAN delivers true reality
TV: coverage of the decision making that impacts our lives
the most. It is where Americans can see their representatives
in hearings, debating issues, giving testimony and voting
on new laws. While it would not offer the drama of celebrities,
a New York equivalent of C-SPAN would, supporters say, allow
citizens to see what we pay our representatives for.
C-SPAN-like broadcast in New York state would be of great
interest and tremendously beneficial to New Yorkers, so they
can actually see how government functions in Albany, said
Russ Haven, legislative counsel with the New York Public Interest
Research Group. Haven said the current interest in legislative
reform shows it would be worthwhile for the public. This
is particularly important, now more than ever with the publics
concerns about government access.
Generally, reporters are the only ones who sit in on legislative
proceedings, while the public catches only the glimpses the
press offers on televised news and in papers. The public misses
the heated debates and the way politicians react to tough
questions or roll over soft ones. They dont hear entire speeches
or whole answers, only sound bites with context provided by
the media outlet. They dont see the angry reactions, flustered
moments, or occasional arguments. Sometimes expressions say
more than words.
The public has expressed a desire to see change happen in
Albany. If government is televised, say advocates, the public
can, literally, see change happen, or fail to happen.
Members of the good-government group Common Cause New York
have been contacting their legislators this week to push for
televised government. Executive Director Rachel Leon said
New York is the only one out of the 10 most populous states
in the nation that does not have a televised system, and that
now is a good moment to start. Technologically speaking,
the time has come. Theyre already filming it, they just need
to find the cable outlet, the means to get it out to New Yorkers,
she said, adding that the talk of reform has increased the
amount of debate among lawmakers, making open access even
more crucial.
Assemblys initiative in doing this is really part of the
reform package to open up to people, provide access to whats
happening in the Legislature, said Assemblyman Bob Reilly
(D-Colonie). I think there will be support for it.
A representative speaking for Assembly Majority Leader Sheldon
Silver (D-Manhattan), said that Silver and Minority Leader
Charlie Nesbitt (R-Albion) are both in favor of this initiative.
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures,
live proceedings were available to the public, via different
forms of media, in 45 states as of February 2004. Twenty-seven
states air their sessions on TV, including Connecticut, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Ohio. Legislative happenings
are put on the Internet as well, sometimes only with audio,
but often by streaming video. The New York Legislature currently
offers Internet access to our representatives via streaming
Between 1986 and 1992, a channel called NYSCAN provided some
televised coverage of New Yorks state government, but only
to Capital Region viewers. It ran on a budget of $500,000
with 10 employees. Gov. Mario Cuomo had it canned, claiming
it would be fiscally responsible to use the funds elsewhere.
In 1999, Senate Majority Leader Joe Bruno (R-Brunswick) and
Silver created a joint Senate-Assembly task force on televised
sessions to research restarting some form of direct government
access. The task force came up with an estimate of $20 to
$30 million for creating an independent outlet to air sessions
and other in-Capitol happenings.
When the task force was first researching the issue, digital
cable was not available in most of the state. The task force
saw this as a major obstacle because analog cables channel
capacity is limited, and it was likely that not all cable
providers would be on board with devoting a channel for such
a project. They decided to start with Internet audio broadcasts
and eventually video.
technological advances allow us the historic opportunity to
open state government up to millions of people throughout
New York and the entire world, Silver said in a 2000 press
release announcing the Internet feeds.
While this claim is true, television broadcasts are still
likely to reach larger numbers than Internet ones. Internet
connections are still not as reliable, or as common, as TV,
and sitting in front of a computer is less comfortable than
on a couch. Also, most people dont flip through channels
on their computer, so you basically have to know when you
want to watch it and what you want to see.
In 2000, the task force predicted that channel capacity would
grow, and with digital television it has done so tremendously.
And so, as an outgrowth of this years reform package, a committee
of Assembly members is again working to put the Assembly on
the committee will be doing in the near future is visiting
with various potential broadcasting partners, said Reilly.
Besides finding distribution, another issue is production.
Reilly doesnt think everything would necessarily be live,
mostly because of the amount of dead air that would result
while the members go into conference, or votes are being taken
and tallied. Working out what gets edited and what is aired
will take some time and guidelines, he said.
Reilly said the committee has not reached the stage where
the members can predict the cost of setting up this project,
but he seems to think the initial production-end start-up
will be most costly. The House and the Assembly are already
well set up for the production of proceedings, said Reilly.
I think we can easily move into televised hearings. The question
becomes staffing and editing, and Id imagine theyd have
to move into digital equipment. That would mean some capital
cost to get started.
Although it seems the Senate supports the idea, that body
doesnt appear to be taking the initiative the Assembly is.
Reilly said he believes the Assembly is ahead when it comes
to working on televising sessions, but he expects the Senate
will follow. They have not come to any decision on whether
the two will share a channel or use separate feeds.

Faces Make Friendly Questions
Taking a page from The White House Guide to
Public Interaction, Albany Mayor Jerry Jennings
recently opted out of the standard Q&A format
for the monthly Albany Roundtable luncheons, choosing
(for the third consecutive year) to pick which
audience members could provide questions rather
than simply answering submitted questions selected
by moderator Paul Bray for relevance. The hard-
hitting questions Jennings chose to address during
this election-year forum included whether he was
related to Jeopardy winner Ken Jennings
and if he planned to serve longer than former
Mayor Erastus Corning 2nd.
Create the Truth
Mediabistro, an online resource for media professionals,
recently included among its job postings a call
for a new fact writer for Fox New Channels
24-hour television news network in New York City.
Responsibilities include the ambiguous task of
writing on-air facts and press conference quotes.
Sure, it sounded like it should be a reporters
job to us, too, but it makes sense when you think
about it: When the real facts dont match your
agenda, just write new facts.
Failing Upward
President Bush recently nominated John Negroponte,
the current U.S. ambassador to Iraq, to the newly
created office of director of national intelligence.
Negroponte previously served as ambassador to
Honduras from 1981 to 1985, and has been linked
to some of the shadier aspects of U.S. involvement
in Latin America, including reports of U.S.-trained
death squads killing activists and other gross
violations of international human-rights laws.
Negroponte has also been accused of altering reports
to Congress about human-rights violations in Honduras
in an effort to preserve U.S. funding for operations
Is Everything
Just hours after G.W. Bush signed legislation
shifting class-action lawsuits from state to federal
courts (thereby placing such lawsuits under the
jurisdiction of federally appointed judges rather
than their more consumer-friendly state counterparts),
the FDA announced that the controversial painkillers
Celebrex, Bextra and Vioxx wont be removed from
U.S. markets, despite the drugs link (through
earlier reports by the FDA) to increased likelihood
of heart attacks, strokes and other cardiovascular
dangers. Of course, its all probably just a coincidence.
Really. Just a coincidence. Were sure of it.
arent motorcycles allowed to park at the Rensselaer Amtrak
their riders dont get harassed about driving below the speed
limit quite as often as bicyclists, motorcycles still experience
some of the same harassment as their nonmotorized two-wheeled
brethren, from being refused service at drive-throughs to
being run off the road by careless car drivers. So a sensitive
biker might at first be apt to read something sinister into
the notices at the Rensselaer Amtrak Station long-term parking
area that say that motorcycles are prohibited for your safety
A customer-service representative for the station didnt know
about the ban (employees get parking spots in the short-term
parking area right in front of the building it seems), but
Les Arras, a manager for Maiden Lane parking systems, who
was chatting with a parking attendant at the lot, was able
to clear it up.
The parking gates that Maiden Lane, which runs the stations
parking, uses are triggered to open by the presence of a certain
amount of metal mass, Arras explained. Motorcycles arent
quite large enough, and either wont trigger the gate to open
or may lose the signal early, leaving the gate to drop and
bash some poor motorcyclist on the head. OK, so they werent
kidding about safety reasons.
An article on the American Motorcycle Association Web site
confirms that many magnetically triggered gates have problems
with not opening for motorcycles, which are not only lighter,
but are made with a higher aluminum-to-steel proportion than
most cars. Its not clear if the closing-on-someones-head
problem has actually happened, since once a gate opens its
closing is controlled by a timer, but it is apparently a commonly
cited reason for banning motorcycles from parking garages
and paid parking lots.
The AMA recommends that concerned bikers ask parking management
to adjust the sensitivity of their sensor, which is usually
possible; add an optical trigger rather than a magnetic one;
or shorten the arm so motorcycles can get around a closed
gate. Still, the real problem, said Imre Szauter, AMA legislative
affairs specialist, is the fact that these manufacturers
arent designing gates for motorcycle use.
Amano, the makers of the gates used at the Albany-Rensselaer
station, and the administration of Maiden Lane Parking, could
not be reached by press time. An incensed representative from
another parking-gate manufacturer, Cincinnati Gate Systems,
responded to the question of whether gates could be made motorcycle-safe
by saying that they already were, and it was all a problem
of insurance underwriters and revenue control, not safety.
(He also said, however, that asking the question was tantamount
to being against American business, so it may be a sore
In any case, Amtrak-riding motorcyclists can take heart. Arras
said there are plans to add a concrete pad out in front
of the gates for motorcycle parking some time in the next
year or twoand itll be free.

At the conclusion of Vice President Joe Biden's middle class task force meeting this afternoon at the University of Pennsylvania, bigwigs filed into small reception hosted by Penn President Amy Gutman and Mayor Michael Nutter to thank Sen. Arlen Specter for supporting the federal stimulus package.
"Arlen you deserve all the credit in the world, this wouldn't have happened without you," said an emotional Vice President Joe Biden. Nutter, Governor Rendell, Sen. Casey and Gutman joined in the chorus of praise.
When Specter took the stage he joked: "These comments sound to me like a eulogy. More appropriate for another day. I'm glad to be here under these circumstances."

Mayor Nutter says he's thrilled to be hosting Vice President Joe Biden and the middle class task force today as they discuss the benefits of green jobs. He'll be speaking about how Philly is developing green jobs during one of the panels.
"The whole task force is about the middle class. Our perspective in Philadelphia is that green jobs are the pathway to the middle class," Nutter said.
There was some good green news for Philly today. A total of $1.3 million in grants from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation will be awarded to green job efforts in the city, including a grant to the non-profit Energy Coordinating Agency to launch a green jobs skills training center.

PhillyClout's Catherine Lucey reports that Vice President Joe Biden's Philly visit kicked off this morning with a tour of the operations control center at the University of Pennsylvania. He's here for the first session of his middle class task force, which will focus on green job creation.
Biden, joined by Governor Rendell, Mayor Nutter as well as local congressman and members of the cabinet, was first shown a model of Penn's plans to convert wasteland on the eastern edge of campus into athletic fields and park space.
"Where will the squash courts go?" asked avid squash player Sen. Arlen Specter.

The city Board of Ethics sues a political action committee with ties to Gov. Rendell for keeping sloppy books.
City Council decides to meet in secret to talk about how to hold public hearings on the budget.
Defense attorneys complain the massive federal corruption case against former state Sen. Vince Fumo is driven by a vendetta from prosecutors.
Catherine Lucey
Almost three weeks ago, Mayor Nutter presented City Council with the data he collected from city departments on how 10, 20 or 30 percent cuts would affect their ability to provide services. Soon after, we received a hefty packet of the cut scenario data, which showed the crippling affect such cuts would have on police, fire or library services.
But we noticed that several departments were not included in the packet – among them commerce, human services and the managing director's office. According to the city, that information will be provided in a second volume of data.
Well, we still haven't seen that second volume. We asked for it about a week ago and then over the past several days we've been specifically requesting just the managing director's information. We want to see what would happen to signature programs like Philly Stat and 3-1-1 under cuts.
Chris Brennan
City Council members are right now gathered in a closed-door City Hall meeting and refusing to let reporters come inside. Mayor Nutter briefed Council leaders earlier today on budget issues so Council members could be discussing that. There's no way to know for sure since we're locked out. Reporters gathered outside the meeting believe there is a quorum of Council members present, which means the meeting must be open to the public, according to state law.
Tony Radwanski, an aide to City Council President Anna Verna, told reporters the meeting is about how Council will hear public testimony on the city budget during upcoming hearings. There is no provision in the state's Sunshine Act -- which covers public records and open meetings -- to close a meeting so public officials can discuss how to run hearings.
We've been down this road before. Mayor Nutter last fall shut reporters out of meetings where he briefed a majority of Council members about the city's budget woes. Nutter insisted he had the right to hold secret meetings -- one had an armed guard posted at the door -- because Council was taking no action on the budget at the time.

Atobe Yoshisuke
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|This article does not cite any references (sources). (August 2008)
In this Japanese name, the family name is Atobe.
Atobe Yoshisuke (跡部 良弼?, November 18, 1799 – February 1, 1869) was a Japanese samurai of the late Edo period. A hatamoto serving the Tokugawa shogun, Yoshisuke was the birth brother of the Bakufu senior councilor Mizuno Tadakuni. Atobe was not known for his good relations with daimyo, having once angered Date Yoshikuni, the powerful lord of Sendai in Mutsu Province by throwing him out of a highway lodging.
Atobe was appointed to the post of wakadoshiyori in 1868, and died roughly a year later.
His court title was Yamashiro no kami.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Gaborik Working Hard
by Paul on 01/17/07 at 11:35 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the Edmonton Journal,
Wild coach Jacques Lemaire, who only played Gaborik an average of 18:26 a game last season, which irked the native of Slovakia, is now playing him an average of 20:48 a game.
Lemaire didn't trust Gaborik, who gets power-play time, to kill penalties last season. He does now.
But how good Gaborik becomes is all up to him, according to Lemaire, maybe one of the best two-way centres in NHL history—a guy who had to cover up the defensive sins of Guy Lafleur and fellow linemate Steve Shutt.
Lemaire loves Gaborik's home-run ability. But, again, can he stay in one piece and will he ever be as good as, say, fellow Slovakian winger Marian Hossa?

The Jersey Debate
by Paul on 01/17/07 at 11:30 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the BTM at NBC Sports,
Ask any Hollywood star who has worn a bad outfit to an awards show: it can take a long time to live down a fashion mistake. This week, the NHL will take a walk down the runway with its new collection, and if the early buzz is any indication, it will fall flat on its face….
The main complaint from players who have tried the new uniforms? They're too constrictive, and don't fit larger players well at all. Another gripe being voiced quietly is how different the new jerseys look—a radical departure from the traditional sweater, which has been largely unchanged over the years. In the NHL, where the "mirror test" matters for everything from helmets to skates, the new jerseys fail badly.
read on... Geez, can we just wait until we see them!

Flyer Fans Respond
by Paul on 01/17/07 at 11:23 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the Philadelphia Daily News,
THE QUESTION: 1. A year and a half now since the strike, how has your attitude toward the Flyers and the NHL changed, if at all?
2. What's your opinion on the current makeup of the schedule, which promotes rivalries and a lot of divisional games (I know how one member of my panel feels about this) and all but eliminates ever seeing half the league. The NHL has been studying the schedule and is expected to make announcement about it in mid-February. So I just want to get out ahead of things.
I don't watch hockey anymore although I used to be a "huge" fan. It is not enjoyable to me now, but I think a good kernel for a story would be hockey as the first sport that has had to contract salaries, etc., when the fans go south. I wish the fans would go south for all sports and bring these pampered idiots back to reality, as you are well aware, but hockey is the first to experience the contractions, as i see it.

What Has Happened To The Habs
by Paul on 01/17/07 at 10:58 AM ET
Comments (0)
When the Wings beat the Canadiens the other day, I wondered what had happened to the team that was so hot about a month ago.
I watched parts of their 4-0 loss to Vancouver in Montreal last night and the boo birds are beginning to appear.
I thought of Spector and what he must be feeling.
from Spector's blog at Fox Sports,
And given how crappy Samsonov and Rivet have played of late, why would any GM in his right mind wanna trade for them? Sammy's been an overpaid underachiever all season, while Rivet (an impending UFA this summer)simply hasn't played up to his usual steady, under-rated standards over the past month.
It remains to be seen if Carbo's moves will stimulate his charges into playing more spirited hockey, or if this will only send them swooning further.
Yes, I'm harsh in my critiques of the Canadiens because they're my favourite team, this is my blog and I'll be as harsh with them as I please.

Coaching Sid Thru The Years

from Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun,
They all coached Sid The Kid when he really was Sid The Kid.
Can you imagine being the man who agreed to coach the little guys, who are usually more adorable than talented as they take to the ice for the first time like baby turtles heading to the ocean, and one of the tykes is Sidney Crosby?
Paul Gallagher coached Crosby when he was five years old and wore No. 8 in Tim Bits hockey here. He coached Crosby again when he was in bantam.

from Larry Brooks of the NY Post,
They wear masks, but that can't camouflage the fact they also are the faces of their respective franchises. And when Martin Brodeur stared at the other crease 178 feet away from him at the Meadowlands last night, this is what he saw when he spied Henrik Lundqvist:
"With the way things were really tough for Ricky [Mike Richter] his last couple of years and then the way the Rangers changed goaltenders right and left for a time after that, when I see Lundqvist I see stability, and I see someone who has the chance to be a star in this league, and I think that's great,"...

from William Houston of the Globe and Mail,
U.S. regional audiences are down by about 25 per cent. National viewership on Versus, the U.S. cable channel, is up 3 per cent. But the average audience of 195,476 on Versus is about half of what ESPN2 used to pull in.
For the CBC, the numbers tell two stories: one grim, the other worrisome.
The Hockey Night in Canada audience for the first game of its telecast (1.285 million) has dropped 12 per cent from last year. For the second game (723,000), the decrease is 30 per cent.

A Coach's Dream

from the Toronto Star,
"You would have to be with Brad Richards every day to understand what he does for our team," Tortorella said.
"He works on the all the little things that win games. I look at him, and see everyone is all over him, he's a bad player, he's this, he's that ... but he continues to do all those things that win games. He's coming on too, and if he (scores more) in the second half, it's only going to help our team."
When his leadership and commitment to defence are factored in, he becomes a coach's dream.

Stay-At-Home Phillips?
by George Malik on 01/17/07 at 10:00 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the inestimable Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun:
[Chris] Phillips can't help but sometimes wonder what is going to happen next for him. Phillips, set to become an unrestricted free agent in July, is making $1.675 million US in the final year of his contract and there haven't been any discussions on a new deal, although the NHL ban on teams speaking to their impending free agents was only lifted two weeks ago.
"Being here since I was drafted and putting on the jersey then, it would be tough to put on a different jersey.
In saying that, there aren't a lot of guys that are staying with one team their whole career. If there's a possibility of that happening (finishing his career with Ottawa), that would be great."

Ales Kotalik's Negative Success
by George Malik on 01/17/07 at 09:43 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the Associated Press:
Give Ales Kotalik bonus marks for effort — and semantics.
The Buffalo Sabres forward creatively categorized his team's current rough patch as anything but what most — even his coach, Lindy Ruff — are referring to as a bona fide slump.
"You guys always like to call it a slump. It's your job," Kotalik said, referring to reporters after practice Tuesday. "I would call it a stretch of results we are not used to."
Those of us who're passionate about the English language would call that "brilliantly-crafted BS."

Correctional Administrators' Attitudes: Making a Difference in Correctional Intelligence Gathering and Sharing
Garzarelli, Louis F., Corrections Today
In a post-9/11 world, domestic and international intelligence have become the cornerstone of U.S.homeland security. America's law enforcement community and the correctional community have been faced with the challenge of working together and sharing intelligence. The correctional community has always had a significant amount of intelligence at federal, state and county levels. Traditionally, correctional administrators, outside law enforcement officials and prosecutors viewed intelligence gathering in corrections as information that only pertained to respective correctional institutions.
The main reason for this attitude is that most administrators and prosecutors are not aware that intelligence gathered within the correctional community has the potential to enhance prosecution of criminal cases. Most administrators and officials never had opportunities to be involved in cases where intelligence developed from the correctional community. In addition, there is a lack of resources to train and assign staff whose positions are dedicated to performing investigative and intelligence gathering on a full-time basis. This negative attitude also derived from the traditional task of correctional intelligence pertaining only to the respective correctional facility. Traditionally, the only need for investigation or intelligence gathering within a correctional facility was based on incidents that occurred within that facility.
The History of Security Intelligence
The 1950s and 1960s brought the growth of traditional prison gangs. To maintain order and security within institutions, it became necessary to monitor the movement of these groups, which subsequently were known as security threat groups (STGs). Larger state prison systems and the Federal Bureau of Prisons established full-time staff positions to perform these tasks. These staff members are referred to as special investigative investigators or SIS lieutenants in the BOP. In some state systems, they are called security captains or security investigators. Throughout the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, investigative/intelligence staff worked alone. Their responsibilities consisted of monitoring, identifying and documenting known and new gang members, performing investigations concerning internal affair matters and coordinating with outside law enforcement agencies in conducting interviews with inmates and dealing with criminal matters. The increase in the national crime rate and the "get tough on crime" attitude of the 1980s and 1990s, combined with new mandatory sentencing laws on the state and federal level, affected the rapid growth of the U.S. prison system at that time. This increase in the prison population made it necessary for correctional administrators to dedicate additional staff to assist in maintaining efficient investigative and intelligence gathering processes. The nation's prison system also experienced continuous growth that subsequently placed a large demand on the correctional investigative and intelligence communities.
Investigative And Intelligence Staff Today
Today, many correctional administrators, outside law enforcement officials and prosecutors still view correctional investigative and intelligence staff as being responsible only for gathering intelligence for their respective institutions. In some correctional and law enforcement circles, they are restricted from disseminating critical intelligence to outside law enforcement and prosecutors' offices. Correctional investigators and intelligence staff are considered a small component of the daily operations of a correctional institution and are limited in the resources they can offer to police and courts. At times, correctional investigators and intelligence staff also are restricted by state laws and, in some cases, judges' opinions on how information will be disseminated. For example, in states such as Maryland and Pennsylvania, state judges can place restrictions on county and state institutions concerning proactive intelligence-gathering operations. …

Blackhawks Game 5 Notes For Friday @ St. Louis
* In the history of the NHL playoffs, the team that wins Game 5 in a best-of-seven series that is tied 2-2 wins the series 79.3 percent (180-47) of the time.
* While the team scoring first this series has gone 4-0, the team leading with four minutes left in regulation has gone just 1-3.
* The Blues have lost 10 of their last 11 playoff series that were tied 2-2. The last five playoff series in which the Blackhawks were tied 2-2, they won both Game 5 and Game 6.
* The Blackhawks have lost nine of their last 10 road games (1-8-1), and have scored just three power-play goals over their last 14 road games (including playoffs).
* Although Bryan Bickell has just one point and an even (0) rating to show for it, Bickell has constantly harassed Blues skaters, accounting for a remarkable 26.9 percent of Chicago's total hits – the highest percentage of any skater this postseason.
* Through four games, Kevin Shattenkirk leads the Blues with five points. The last time a Blues defenseman led the team in points in a playoff series was 2001, when Al MacInnis had four points against the Avalanche.

High Speed Power Training Effective for Older Women
As women age finding a workout that increases functional fitness, as well as strength and power, is essential to overall health and wellness. New research in the Journal of Experimental Gerontology, examines the effects of high speed power training on muscle performance and functional fitness in older women.
Researchers specifically assessed the effects of 12 weeks of high speed power training on handgrip strength, maximal strength, muscle power (including measurements of walking velocity, counter movement jump and ball throwing), and functional tasks (including use of the of the arm and leg muscles for sit-to-stand movements and get-up and go exercises).
Fifty-six older women were evaluated for this study. The experimental group participated in a high speed power training protocol that consisted of strength training including: 40% of 1RM to 75% of 1RM, counter movement jumping, and medicine ball throwing.
Research Results
- Researchers noted a significant increase in dynamic and isometric strength performance (from 57% to 61%), muscle power (from 14% to 40%) and functional fitness skills.
- Researchers found that high speed power training is an effective approach that can lead to significant gains in upper and lower body muscle performance and function in older women.
- High speed power training may contribute to prolonging functional independence and quality of life in older women.

The Escalade is a full-size luxury SUV created by General Motors and it's considered as Cadillac's first entry to the SUV market. Production of the model started in 1999 to compete with the growing number of competitor SUVs from German, Japanese, as well as other American brands. Initially, the Escalade was a rebadged version of the GMC Denali, but it was restyled and redesigned in 2002 to incorporate Cadillac's signature art and science theme. In 2003, Cadillac produced the Escalade ESV as a variant of the regular model. The ESV was a bigger and more massive version of the Escalade, and it had an extended wheelbase, a V8 engine, and a Bose sound system. Here's a quick look at the changes and transformations that the Escalade ESV has undergone since its beginnings up to the present.
2003: Production and release
Production and release of the ESV began in 2003. As a wider and more spacious version of the Escalade, this model offers passengers more room and cargo space, making their drives more comfortable.
2004: Platinum Escalade
In 2004, Cadillac released the Platinum Escalade, which was created under the ESV model. This vehicle was packed with features such as heated and ventilated seats and cup holders. It also spelled luxury with its use of special leather for its interiors, and it was also furnished with HID headlights. In 2008, another Platinum edition resurfaced under both the Escalade and Escalade ESV models. This edition had a unique front fascia and grille, limited edition 22-inch wheels, chrome and aluminum accents, and DVD monitors at the headrests of the front seats. It was also furnished with special hand-stitched leather, an Advanced Magnetic Ride Control system, LED headlights, and a one-of-a-kind interior trim.
2006: The new GMT900 platform
In 2006, the Cadillac Escalade served as the official vehicle of the Super Bowl XL. In fact, the MVP during that year, Hines Ward, was even given one of the first ever Escalades produced under the new GMT900 platform. The third generation of Escalades was introduced to the market the following year in 2007, and this included a stretched and newly designed versions of both the ESV and EXT sport utility truck.
2013: The present Escalades
The fourth generation of the Escalade and Escalade ESV were unveiled in New York last October 2013. This was done only a month after Chevrolet and GMC both introduced their next generation of SUVs. Promotion of the new Escalade began with several teaser posters circulating online and these photos were captured by American photographer Autumn de Wilde. General Motors also put up a Youtube page called "Escalade Reveal" where videos counting down the release of the new Escalades were posted. The production of the new vehicles began in January 2014 in the Arlington, Texas assembly plant and it was sold beginning April of the same year.

PIKEVILLE, Ky. (WYMT)- Businesses, community organizations, neighbors and friends are grabbing their walking shoes and heading to the city park in Pikeville to raise money and awareness for blood cancer.
As the sun goes down, participants in the light the night awareness walk will carry illuminated balloons in memory of those who lost their life to blood cancer and in honor of survivors. This is an annual event for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Organizer Louis Barnes says all proceeds go towards cancer research and it is not too late to register.
He says,"We want everybody to come whether they've got a penny of not. We, we want this to be an awareness meeting of everybody and let you know what the warning signs of blood cancers are."
Barnes says walkers can expect food, fun, and fellowship.
This event is free, but for those who pay the 50 dollar registration fee you get a t-shirt. The walk begins at 6:30, but everyone is encouraged to come out around 5:30 for other activities.

Jouett, Ruddock, Bailey, Brown, Tanner, Moore, Duncan, Robards, and many more
I have been researching the Jouett family for more than 10 years and I have been asking the same question about Pierre "Peter" Jouett and Matthew Jouett: Are they one in the same person? Today I am more convinced than ever that this is the case. I am looking for someone to provide DOCUMENTED EVIDNECE that Pierre "Peter" Jouett exist as a separate person. I know that Pierre is mentioned in the wills of his Mother and Father (listed below) and I know he is also listed on the passenger list from New York to the Carolinas in 1695/1696. But could it have been that Pierre Matthew Jouett? Could it be that Pierre changed his name or took his middle name as his first name? Why would he do this? Well, His family left France because of persecution, they then arrived in the Americas by way of Rhode Island where again they were persecuted and were forced to leave and they then moved to New York. So could it be that Pierre decided to go by Matthew as it sounds more British (English) rather than Peter or Pierre that is quite French? The other point that I would like to make that other than these three references to Pierre we see no more, yet with all of his brothers and sisters I find all sorts of documentation on them. Below are some examples of all documentation that I have uncovered. I would hope to find someone who will have the documented information for the proof of Pierre Jouett.
So let me see if we can make any sense of all of this:
Below are three different items that have different information on Pierre/Peter Jouet and Matthew Jouett:
Pierre Jouett in the first example was born in 1683 in Hanover County, Virginia this can not be true as Daniel De Jouet and Marie Coursier had not arrived in Americas until 1688 in Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island (this information comes from the book "From New Babylon to Eden" by Bertrand Van Ruymbeke). As we know Marie had her third child in Plymouth, England in 1685. So Pierre could not have been born in Hanover County, Virginia. Also in the first example Pierre dies on December 17, 1743 in New Jersey. I also do not believe this as I have done extensive research on the family in New Jersey and I can without a doubt tell you that Pierre did not die in New Jersey. Daniel (will written June 7, 1711 and proved On October 10, 1721) and Marie (will written July 4, 1732 and Proved November 25, 1732) lived in Elizabethtown, Essex County, New Jersey and both of their wills were proved in said town, county, and state. Yes it does mention Peter in the wills dated 1711 and in 1732, but what does this prove? Yes there is a Pierre/Peter and could their be a Pierre Matthew Jouet or a Matthew Pierre Jouet? And why if we find so much information on the Jouets in New Jersey, New York, Narragansett Bay, Hanover, Louisa, and Abemarle Counties, that we find nothing about Pierre/Peter other than the Passenger List of 1695/1696 when they went to the Carolinas, and the two wills?
In the Second example in red, this was posted somewhere and this has Daniel and Marie with a grandson named Matthew Pierre Jouett born Dec 1701 in Hanover County and died June 1746 in Louisa {Abermarle County} County. Pierre is born in 1683 on the Isle De Re, France and dies Dec 17, 1743 in Albemarle County. So lets look at this: If you subtract 1701 - 1683 = 18, that means that Pierre Jouett was 18 years old when Matthew was born. And he was 18 married living in Hanover County alone. Does anyone believe this? I don't think so!!!!! So let me run this by you, what if Pierre Jouet and Matthew Jouett were the same person? Intriguing? I bet I have your attention now. What if Pierre Matthew Jouet was born in 1683 in the Isle of Re, France and left with his parents to go to England and then on to Rhode Island, then to New York, the Carolinas, New York and then Virginia. Think about this he would have been 37 years old when he married Susanna Moore (she would have been 20) if they got married in 1720.
Another point to be made is that Matthew Jouett made his will on December 31, 1743( we know this because I have in my hands the document that states the date he wrote the will and it proved in the Hanover County Court) {however, I learned today that those records are no longer abled to be accessed due to the fact that those records were destroyed during the civil war by our southern soldiers, that is story for another time} and Pierre Jouet died on December 17, 1743; strange isn't it? Why would Matthew write a will when he had lost his father on days before and New Years Eve to boot?
The third example shows us that dates can be wrong al the way around check out Matthew's date of death 1734 - wrong wrong wrong!!! Nothing more to be said.
I have given you a lot to think about. Mull it over and let me know what you think.
4. PIERRE3 DE JOUET (DANIEL2, DANIEL1) was born 1683 in Hanover Co. VA, and died December 17, 1743 in NJ.
He married UNKNOWN Abt. 1701. She was born Unknown, and died Unknown. {from Joel Meador}
Daniel Jouet and Marie Coursier did NOT have a son Matthew. This was their grandson Matthew Pierre Jouett b. Dec 1701 Hanover Co. VA; d. Jun 1746 Louisa [Albemarle] Co. VA who was son of Pierre/Peter Jouet/Jouett b. abt 1683 Isle de Re, Charente-Maritime, France; WP 17 Dec 1743 Albemarle Co. VA who m. abt 1700-1 Hanover Co. VA. Pierre is named in his father's WD 7 Jun 1711; WP 10 Oct 1721 [Lib. A, p.203, Essex Co. NJ Wills]. Pierre is also shown with his parents Daniel and Marie in South Carolina in 1695: "Daniel Jouet, "sail-maker" was listed in "An Act For The Making Aliens Free Of This Part Of The Province, And For Granting Liberty Of Conscience To All Protestants." Daniel Jouet, his wife Marie, and their children, Daniel, Pierre, Marie, Elizabeth, and Anne appeared with French and Swiss refugees who wished to be naturalized as Englishmen. Their sons Ezechiel and Jean not mentioned.
Mathew Jouett died in Louisa County, Virginia in 1734. He owned extensive land in Hanover in 1732, and was said to have furnished the land and built the courthouse for Louisa County on his land on Beaver Creek. He owned the Cuckoo Tavern in Louisa County, which got its name for the cuckoo clock which hung on its walls. This was supposedly the first cuckoo clock brought to Virginia. Does this mean that Mathew Jouett was a descendant of "Willam Jewett of Hanwell, clocksmith," one of the "Newgate prisoners reprieved for transportation to Barbados," and thence to Virginia, on July 15, 1663? {from Juettgenealogy:

Excellent customer service when we needed to switch lodging due to train delay and weather.
Fabulous vacation planning by our Vacations By Rail agent. She even planned an extra day for us to stay in the Grand Canyon and our family enjoyed the beauty for another day. Thanks Vacations by Rail for letting us see our beautiful country (USA) and leaving the 'driving' to Amtrak.
Thanks for your help coordinating our trip. I had a fantastic time on my vacation, the train experience was unbelievable, it's too bad that this form of travel has gone by the wayside and, it's too bad that it is so expensive to travel by rail. The coach itself was clean and the accommodations made by our coach attendant were great, they (we had two, Julio and Brian, were both extremely jovial, and considerate of our concerns. They treated my son who is seven years old very well. The dining room staff was also very accommodating, great service and great attitudes on the dining car. Moses, the head chief in the dining car ran a tight ship, John a very senior gentlemen compared to the rest was amazingly cordial and served us wonderfully. This is the best vacation we have had, the combination of the overnighter in the roomette, the dining car, and the Grand Canyon tour were just amazing. Thank you ! ! !
