Max Scherzer has struggled a bit as of late, but then again, so has most of the Tigers starting rotation. (Otto Greule Jr / Getty Images)
Tony Paul goes around the league, with the ninth of his weekly Major League Baseball Power Rankings.
1. Giants (last week: 1): Here�s a phenomenal piece on Brandon Crawford, courtesy of SportsOnEarth.com.
2. A�s (2): Lost in all their good play, Yoenis Cespedes isn�t playing all that well. His slash line: .240/.296/.490.
3. Blue Jays (10): If they can stay healthy � ahem, Jose Bautista and Jose Reyes � this team is seriously legit.
4. Tigers (3): Interesting stretch coming up: Blue Jays, Red Sox, then series against all four AL Central teams.
5. Brewers (9): Their Khris Davis (nine) has more home runs than the Orioles� Chris Davis (seven). Wow.
6. Braves (5): Gavin Floyd, a flameout with the White Sox, has found a revival in Atlanta. His FIP is a fine 3.13.
7. Cardinals (4): They�ve only won two series this year against teams that look like postseason contenders.
8. Angels (6): Josh Hamilton finally returns from the disabled list Tuesday. Can he pick up where he left off?
9. Yankees (7): Without Masahiro Tanaka, they�d be starting at a last-place finish. Actually, it�s still possible.
10. Rangers (13): I�m calling it, now. Yu Darvish is finally going to throw a no-hitter, after several close calls.
11. Dodgers (11): They thought they had too many good outfielders? Now they just have one, Yasiel Puig.
12. Orioles (12): How on Earth does this team of bashers only have a .370 slugging percentage at home?
13. Red Sox (21): Talk about a roller coaster. First they lost 10 in a row, and now they�ve won seven straight.
14. Pirates (17): It�s expected that top hitting prospect Gregory Polanco finally will get called up this month.
15. White Sox (19): Ann Arbor Pioneer alumn Zach Putnam is fitting right in with their bullpen (0.955 WHIP).
16. Mariners (16): Lloyd McClendon wins the series, but don�t kid yourself. He still would prefer the Tigers job.
17. Rockies (8): They�ve slipped, but lucky for them, there�s enough parity to keep them in the wild-card hunt.
18. Nationals (14): Sooo ... about that Doug Fister trade now. Tigers� haul, predictably, not looking good.
19. Marlins (18): Giancarlo Stanton is gonna put to the test the theory than an MVP must be on a contender.
20. Twins (15): Ex-Tigers prospect Casey Fien is rocking the dazzling 0.783 WHIP in the Twins� bullpen.
21. Indians (22): Sans Chris Sale, there isn�t a better starter in the AL Central right now than Corey Kluber.
22. Rays (23): Gotta say, David Price won a lot of points for chastising David Ortiz�s idiotic �war� comment.
23. Royals (20): No word comes they are interested in Kendrys Morales. What took them so darn long?
24. Reds (24): Aroldis Chapman has been himself since returning from surgery, with 18 K�s in 10 innings.
25. Mets (27): Terry Collins wanted to give Jose Valverde, probably at Jim Leyland�s recommendation. It failed.
26. Padres (26): They�ll hope to do better in the draft than 10 years ago, when they took a future felon No. 1.
27. Astros (30): Told folks they were better than most thought. Not good, of course. But definitely better.
28. Phillies (25): Jimmy Rollins shouldn�t be a Phillie for much longer. Oh, he shouldn�t be a Tiger either.
29. Diamondbacks (29): Hat tip to Homer�s Josh Collmenter, for his minimum-batter, complete-game shutout.
30. Cubs (28): All that�s left to watch this year? How much do they get in a Jeff Samardzija trade next month.

Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Actuary testified before the House Budget Committee and reiterated his views about the Affordable Care Act. His testimony reaffirmed that millions of previously uninsured Americans will gain coverage, Medicare will be stronger, and the rate of health care spending will decrease. But as we've noted on the blog in the past, we disagree with some of the Actuary's other conclusions. Here's why:
In previous analyses of the Affordable Care Act, the Actuary discounts proposals that other independent experts credit with getting at the root causes of health care cost growth. The Affordable Care Act, for example:
- Creates new, competitive state-based insurance Exchanges. Exchanges will enable individuals and small businesses to pool together and use their market strength to buy coverage at a lower cost, the same way large employers do today.
- Establishes ways for Medicare to adopt cutting-edge payment reforms, such as the new Innovation Center. These benefits will spill over to the private sector.
- Creates Accountable Care Organizations and other ways to promote value – so that patients are getting better care not just expensive care. The plan gives health care providers incentives to coordinate care to improve the quality of care as well as efficiency.
These policies will bring down health care costs, but they are undervalued by the Actuary.
The Actuary has also raised concerns that implementing these cost control measures may not be possible. Once again, we disagree. History shows that it is possible to implement measures that will save money for Medicare and the federal government. For example, both the Office of the Actuary and the Congressional Budget Office substantially underestimated the savings that were achieved by the Balanced Budget Act.
These are just some of the reasons why we are confident the Affordable Care Act will help bring down health care costs. And we're not alone. Health policy experts and economists who have studied the bill agree that the new law utilizes almost all the possible tools to reduce health care costs. Just yesterday, nearly 250 leaders, including two Nobel laureates, for former Council of Economic Advisors members, one former Congressional Budget Office chief, high ranking economists and budget experts signed a letter saying, "The Affordable Care Act contains essentially every cost-containment provision policy analysts have considered effective in reducing the rate of medical spending."
Our Administration is committed to bringing down health care costs. That's why we're moving quickly and carefully to implement the Affordable Care Act and deliver the benefits of reform to the American people.
Stephanie Cutter is Assistant to the President for Special Projects.

Fergie and Josh Duhamel behave like kids
Being pregnant hasn't stopped Fergie. She and husband Josh Duhamel donned matching leotards, and, not to mention baby bumps, to entertain the Kid's Choice Awards audience on Saturday night (March 23).
Duhamel, 40, kicked things off, fake bump 'n all, singing: "I gotta move, I gotta hurry, I gotta make time for Fergie. Go Fergie! Go Fergie!" before Fergie really did go, taking centre stage, pushing her husband aside and getting back to what she's good at. "I wore this for you," Josh said, embarrassingly. Fergie - who has been using acupuncture while pregnant, told Good Morning America in New York on Thursday: "We're thrilled. I know that my husband told everybody what I said. My quote when we found out -- 'This blank just got real.' But it's true, when that moment occurs to you, there's going to be a human being growing inside of you ... it's reality. It's amazing, we're thrilled." The Black Eyed Peas star added: "I have no idea what I'm doing! I'm just going to play it by ear and see how things go, and let the natural instincts kick in."
Fergie and her bump
This was the first time the star had displayed her bump on the red carpet as she confidently strutted around at Nickelodeon's 26th Annual Kids Choice Awards. She announced her pregnancy with Duhamel on Twitter on February 18, and since then, the pair have been extremely excited about their imminent arrival.

UBS Securities analyst Alex Kramm increased his price target on
shares of NYSE Euronext (NYSE:NYX) to $38 from $32, while reiterating
his "Buy" rating.
The brokerage lowered its 2012 EPS estimate to $2.47 from $2.65 and
its 2013 estimate to $3.14 from $3.18, while raising its 2014 estimate
to $4.00 from $3.67.
Kramm said incremental information from
investor day included updated cost guidance for 2012 (in line with
expectations after a more detailed review), a 3-year cost cutting
initiative ($250 million over 3 years), and previews of new growth
initiatives (clearing, CFDs, technology).
[Related -Merger Arbitrage Mondays – June 3, 2013]
While the stock only showed a limited reaction Monday, the analyst
believes it is bound to outperform as investors begin to fully
appreciate the earnings power created over the next couple of years.
Kramm is lowering his near-term estimates on current volume trends and a
slightly higher expense base, he is raising 2014 EPS estimate. He is
also raising price target to $38 as 2014 becomes his primary valuation
year. Incremental upside could be driven by a cyclical recovery in
volumes and further buybacks ($0.50-plus).
The biggest risk to the analyst's updated buy thesis is the potential
for NYX to become a multi-year cost cutting story that investors are
not willing to give credit to. In addition, he believes estimates will
remain pressured by a lackluster trading environment. That said, at a 4%
dividend yield he believes investors are well compensated to be
NYX closed Tuesday's regular session down 1.53% at $29.62.

The Tinderbox
Tinder Box was originally founded in 1928 by Ed Kolpin, one of the true pioneers of the pipe business. After many successful years Kolpin desired to give others the opportunity to experience Tinder Box and sold his first franchise in 1959, long before franchises where common among American business operations. For years Tinder Box was not only the largest pipe and tobacco retailer in North America, it was also the largest franchise operation. Today, with many locations throughout the United States, Tinder Box has become synonymous with quality crafted pipes, original pipe tobacco blends, fine cigars, accessories and unique gifts.The current target audience is easily 40+ The Goal of this rebranding is to first of all make a definitive voice for the brand to stand on and secondly to breathe new life into the brand and attract a younger audience to ensure the heritage that the brand has built doesn't die with its current clientele. So, I would like to reposition this campaign to appeal to a crowd of 25 and up.

Alien Artifact Found? The Nebra Sky Disc★★★
- Uploaded by enigmas on May 29, 2014
- Views: 5711
The Nebra Sky Disc is a bronze disc approximately 30cm in diameter and weighs about 2.2 kg. It has a blue-green patina and is inlaid with gold symbols. The symbols are generally interpreted as the sun or full moon, a lunar crescent, and stars including a cluster thought to be Pleiades. There are two golden arcs along the sides which mark the angle between the solstices and were added later. There was the addition of a final arc at the bottom that was surrounded with multiple strokes, the meaning of these is uncertain interpreted as possibly a solar Barge with multiple oars , the Milky way , or a rainbow. The disc was found at a site near Nebra, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany and dated to approximately c. 1600 B.C. it has been associated with the Bronze Age Unetice culture. The disc is unlike any known artistic style from that period, because of that it was initially suspected of being a forgery but has since become widely accepted as authentic. In June of 2013 it was included in the UNESCO's Memory of the World Register. It was found approximately 12 miles away from the ancient site of Goseck circle ,Germany. Goseck Circle called the Stonehenge of Germany is considered the world's first accurate solar observatory.The site is a set of circular ditches 75 meters across with gates and inner rings. It was originally made of wood instead of stone. The discovery site was a prehistoric enclosure that encircled the top of an 827 ft elevation in the Ziegelroda Forest. The enclosure is oriented so that the sun seems to set every solstice behind the Brocken which is the highest peak of the Harz mountains. The disc was found with other artifacts. There were also two bronze swords, two hatchets,a chisel, and several spiral bracelet fragments. They were discovered by Henry Westphal and Mario Renner while treasure hunting using a metal detector in 1999. The disc and the artifacts found with it are now in Halle at the State Museum of Prehistory. Interestingly an analysis of the metals orgins show that the copper originated at Bischofshofen in Aurstria, the gold from the Carpathia Mountains, and the gold used in the first phase from the river Carnon in Cornwall. The tin content of the bronze was also from Cornwall. The purpose of the disc is debated. It is thought that the disc might be an astronomical instrument and could also have religious significance. The strange blue green patina of the bronze is thought to be an intentional part of the original artifact. It begs the question did the people of the European Bronze Age have the astronomical knowledge and abilities to create this object? It would require close observation of the yearly course of the Sun, also the rising and setting points at summer and winter solstice. They have previously not been known to posses such knowledge and skills.

Legendary singer Charlie Wilson stopped by Majic 102.1 studios to talk about his new album, his battle with prostate cancer and why it's so important for men to get tested – especially since African American men develop the disease 60% more often than white men…and are twice as likely to die from it than other groups.
"I was diagnosed in 2008 but I am now cancer-free…once I received a national platform I wanted to speak in the communities about having this conversation in your home."
LIKE BlackDoctor.org on Facebook! Get Your Daily Medicine…For LIFE!
When asked about how he maintains his longevity in the music industry, Charlie details how it contributes from his passion to keep releasing records, staying healthy and give fans a great show!
"My band is really young so everybody has the energy level that I require. We level off at the top so if you don't have the energy, you can't be in my band."
"People really don't know how I laid in the streets," Wilson said. "From that to this, I cried when they told me I had a Grammy nomination. It still doesn't seem real to me, because so many doors have been shut on me so many times. … Everything was derailed."
Wilson says the Gap Band hit a roadblock in 1986 when they asked to split their publishing deal with their manager; Wilson claims the manager dropped them and then had them blackballed in the industry, threatening anyone who tried to sign them since the group was still under contract with him.
"I couldn't bounce back from that," he said. "Everywhere we went, he ran interference. He threatened people. It was a sad situation. Drugs came a lot more. My brothers and I weren't getting along that well."
Slow cash flow and a cocaine and alcohol addiction drove Wilson to become homeless, as he slept in the alleys of Los Angeles' famed Hollywood Boulevard between 1993 and 1995.
But Wilson says that it was only by the God's grace and mercy that he is here now to tell the story. For God sending him his wife in the form of a social worker to helping him past his prostate cancer, "God is a healer," Charlie states.
In his own words, Charlie recounts when and how he found out about the cancer:
Everything was just going great until I went to the doctor for a general physical in the summer of 2008.
My wife, Mahin, made an appointment for me to have my annual physical. I have never liked going to the doctor or getting any type of exam. In addition to the physical, Mahin suggested I have a prostate exam.
I definitely did not want to have that – for various reasons – but Mahin was very convincing.
After a few days, I heard back from the doctor. He encouraged me to make an appointment for the following month for additional monitoring. He explained that African-American men were more likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer than any other race, and he wanted to keep an eye on things.
I returned in a month. Based on follow-up tests, my doctor suggested that I see a specialist for a biopsy. I immediately got nervous and was concerned about what this could possibly mean.
I remember hearing I had prostate cancer like it was yesterday. I was convinced my life was over. I worked hard at overcoming other life challenges and had the will to return to the top of my game in the music business. I put together a good show; had a catalog of great new songs to record and perform, etc. But now this?!
Our visit with the specialist started with, "I have some good news and some bad news." My wife asked for the bad news and the doctor said "Mr. Wilson, you have prostate cancer." My initial reaction was to get up and leave the room. My wife calmly asked me to sit down and have the doctor give us the good news. The good news was that it had been detected early and could be effectively treated.
Thank God for my wife and her patience and understanding. My initial thought was that my life and career were over. Nothing was further from the truth.
The doctor gave us some informational materials and our research began. We discussed options with my health care team and by working with them closely, I am now cancer free.
However, my journey was not over.
During our research I learned that African-American men are 60% more likely to be diagnosed with this disease than other races or ethnicities. It was at that time that I decided it was time for me to start informing as well as performing.
I began to talk about my prostrate cancer diagnosis in my concerts and interviews. Some men asked, "Why are you telling your personal business?" I replied, "It's my responsibility to make my community aware of this disease and to try to overcome the fear about discussing it."
During my own prostate cancer battle, I learned that my father was also conducting his own battle. Unfortunately, he did not tell us that he had prostate cancer. It wasn't until I called to let him know about my diagnosis that he told me. That was a very difficult conversation for me and also confirmed my commitment to tell my story in order to make my community aware of this disease and encourage them to discuss it.

Backbone NMR assignments of DFP-inhibited mature subtilisin

Here we report the backbone chemical shifts of the DFP-inhibited mature subtilisin E, which was
uniformly labeled by 13C, 15N with a supplement of excess calcium.
Subtilisin; Intramolecular chaperone; Serine protease; Propeptide
Biological context
Subtilisin E (SBE), a member of the subtilase superfamily, is an alkaline serine protease
from Bacillus subtilis I168. Subtilisin and subtilisin-like proteases, such as subtilisin BPN′
from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Esperase® from Bacillus lentus have been intensively
studied for their biochemical and biophysical properties. For decades, subtilisins have also
been a great model protein for studying protein engineering and intramolecular chaperone-
mediated protein folding (Inouye, 1991). The enzymatically active domain of SBE consists
of 275 amino acids; however, it is produced as a pre-pro-subtilisin precursor containing a
29-residue pre-sequence for signaling protein secretion and a 77-residue propeptide as an
intramolecular chaperone essential for correct folding of SBE.
Previous studies have shown that the maturation process is important for SBE to become
functionally active in vivo (Ikemura et al., 1987) and in vitro (Ikemura and Inouye, 1988).
Formation of the native structure is the first step of maturation, which depends on the
propeptide and requires calcium ion for stability (Yabuta et al., 2002), and is followed by the
removal of the propeptide. Recently, an engineered Sbt70 derived from subtilisin BPN′,
sharing 86% sequence identity to SBE, was shown to fold through an altered pathway,
which was propeptide and calcium independent (Bryan et al., 1995). Here, we report the
backbone resonance assignments of the mature subtilisin E folded through a native
maturation process and inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP), an irreversible
serine protease inhibitor. The assignments provide important information for further study
on the propeptide-mediated subtilisin folding through a native pathway.

Methods and experiments
The SBE precursor containing propeptide was expressed in E. coli using pET11a vector with
M9 minimal medium supplemented with 15NH4Cl (1 g/L) and 13C-glucose-C6 (1 g/L).
Induced by isopropyl β-D-1 thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), the prosubtilisin was produced
into inclusion bodies, so that its expression is not toxic to the cells. SBE used in this study
has two amino acid substitutions, V4F and S85A, which have no effect on either enzymatic
activity or autoprocessing. Purification of the SBE precursor was carried out using a cation
exchange column (CM Sepharose™ CL-6B) with a sodium chloride gradient under
denaturing conditions in 5 M urea at pH 5. Mature and active SBE was obtained by rapid
dilution of the precursor into refolding buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl 0.5 M (NH4)2SO4 10 mM
CaCl2 pH 7) at room temperature allowing the maturation process, including autoprocessing
of the propeptide, to be fully completed. Active SBE was concentrated down to 10 ml using
a Millipore stirred cell followed by addition of 5 mM DFP to prevent autoproteolysis. The
DFP-modified mature SBE was further purified by gel filtration column (HiLoad™
Superdex™ 75) and transferred into sample buffer (25 mM MES-NaOH 100 mM CaCl2 pH
6.5) followed by addition of 10% D2O and 0.05%NaN3 for NMR data acquisition. Note that
DFP-modified SBE was highly stable as no apparent autoproteolysis was observed even
after 4 weeks incubation at 30°C.
All NMR spectra were acquired at 30°C on a Varian 600MHz spectrometer with a cold-
probe. Data were processed using NMRPipe (Delaglio et al., 1995) and analyzed by Sparky
(Goddard and Kneller) and CARA (Keller, 2004; http://www.nmr.ch/). Assignments were
based on the following triple resonance experiments: HNCA, HN(CO)CA, HNCO,
HN(CA)CO, HNCACB, CBCA(CO)NH, HC(CO)NH (Ferentz and Wagner, 2000) and 15N-
edited NOESY (Sattler et al., 1999). The analysis of triple resonance connectivity was done
with assistance of PINE (supported by the National Magnetic Resonance Facility at
Madison; http://miranda.nmrfam.wisc.edu/PINE/) and AutoLink (supported by the
University of Zurich, Switzerland; http://www.nmr.ch/).
Assignments and data deposition
As shown in the [15N,1H]-HSQC spectrum (Fig. 1), 252 crosspeaks were assigned to
specific residues (97%) with Gln 2, Ser 33, Ser 78, Gln 103, Tyr 104, Ser 125, Thr 133, Ala
134 and Ser 161 missing due to indistinguishable overlap. The backbone resonance
assignments were obtained and the chemical shifts of assigned 1H, 13C, 15N were deposited
in the BioMagResBank (http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu/) with the accession number 15706.
Based on the assigned chemical shifts, secondary structure propensities could be predicted
using the Secondary Structure Propensity (SSP) algorithm developed by Forman-Kay and
colleagues (Marsh et al., 2006). Comparison of DFP inhibited SBE with the Sbt70 derived
from subtilisin BPN′ shows that the secondary structure propensities of the two proteins are
very similar despite eight mutations at positions K43N, M50F, A73L, Q206V, Y217K,
N218S, S221A, Q271E, and a nine residue deletion at positions L75 to G83 containing the
calcium binding site.

It is SO annoying to see the same folks flooding Tech-Faq with free.co.cc domains. Does anyone else agree? Make these guys pay $1.00 to BUY a .info.
So, Willer, any plans to ban .co.cc's?
It is SO annoying to see the same folks flooding Tech-Faq with free.co.cc domains. Does anyone else agree? Make these guys pay $1.00 to BUY a .info.
So, Willer, any plans to ban .co.cc's?
hmm, I agree I'm getting real annoyed of having my domain pushed down by the co.cc's domains. Even a .info cost $3 @ namecheap + $1 tech-faq that is $4.
While the co.cc is FREE 0.00 + $1.00 tech faq. So for each info you submit they can submit 4 co.cc at the same cost and 4x time the traffic by having 4 links on the page. How in the hell is that fair? That just promotes the use co.cc to the point where every proxy on there will end up being co.cc.
Although I partially agree with you guys, the co.cc. domains have some cons of using it such as: these co.cc are not official TLDs, SEO issues, although google does index these domains, it will rank very poorly on search engines, also suspension without notice if it contains any illegal, spam or adult material, they won't have same value as a .com, .net, .org when owners decide to sell the proxy, their only value will be it's traffic and revenue. You also have to donate a minimum of $10 to be able to register 100 more co.cc
On the other hand, proxy sites gets blocked every 2, 4 or 8 weeks approximately so I think these co.cc is a must for all proxy webmasters, matter of fact I would encourage everyone to use it. Why use .com's that will get blocked in a month or 2? Only use .com's, .net for proxy sites that you intend to keep and maintain for a long period.
(just my 2 cents)
PS. I have not used any of these .co.cc because I thought it was a bad idea, but now I've changed my mind. CO.CC are the perfect solution for proxy sites. After all proxy sites are like quickies, you use them, monetize it and once it gets blocked get a new one.
Co.cc is rated proxy avoidance by least 1 filter vendor. Which means your site will blocked automatically by this filter vendor.
Even though that is an incorrect categorization. They do not care, becuase co.cc in this case is free which open up the problem of anyone creating unlimited domains without financial cost. Its natural there going to block it when it become a evident problem of being used for such.Code:http://www.lightspeedsystems.com/Archive/WebsiteDetails.aspx?domain=co.cc

But technically, I can take a $10 coupon, and then set up a proxy with a ready-made template with no effort, park 9 other co.cc's to it, and then submit them all. This would probably make me $4/proxy at the least, and after a week I could just scrap them all. That's $30/week profit with no effort at all, and that's only if you submit to Tech FAQ.
If you aren't going to ban them, then I recommend that you up the price to $2 for co.cc domains. So TLDs = $1 and co.cc = $2.

co.cc's work for the proxy users. co.cc's are perfect for proxies, because they can be created easily and cheaply and then thrown away.
com's look nicer, but once they are known and blocked by WebSense (etc...) they are no more valuable (to the proxy users) than a co.cc domain.
Why don't all of you guys build some co.cc's?
Don't complain about your competion, beat them!
Note: The recent rush of co.cc domains is mostly due to one guy and he's not going to be doing this any longer -- for unrelated reasons.

I swear, by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.
The proxy business is not the most profitable niche. We as proxy webmasters have to try to keep expenses low so we could earn as much as possible. Every dollar we save on hosting, domain, promotion, the better the revenue will be.
Follow me on Twitter: @hendricius
Well to be honest i had a massive rush of traffic from topbits as expected, but only for 2 days, then my proxy got pushed to another page because of co.ccs , i would have got atleast another day of exposure

Hi I have 2001 grand caravan no spark no power at the coil pulling asd code I got 11.22volts at term.86, 87 and.39 volt at term 85 and 0 at term30 at asd relay. Relay does click when turning over it did start once last night ran for half hour shut it of it wouldn't start again please help
February 1, 2013.
February 1, 2013.
If the relay clicks, the wiring is good and the Engine Computer has control of it. The system can be broken down into three parts. Since the ASD relay turns back on during cranking we can eliminate the sensor(s). Those are responsible the majority of the no-start problems. For any other tests we have to know which engine you have.

Great service
by Mel , 01/27/2012
I have boarded a dog and a cat there, and they always come home happy, and seem excited to go back, even if it is just to shop. The staff have always been very helpful, and knowledgeable about the products they carry.
Best Pet Grooming and Boarding
by dspangler , 04/25/2011
The staff at Idlewire is the best! They really took great care of my 170-pound bloodhound Baloo for five years. It wasn't always an easy job since he can be very stubborn at times but he always loved going to Idlewire and the staff made us feel like a family. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for quality care. Donna and Jerry Spangler.
great place
by shellsurf03 , 02/05/2011
Took my dog, Oliver there for the first time today. Not only is it the best grooming he's ever gotten, the staff was incredibly friendly! I will return many times!
Great experience

We love this place. It is convenient to pick up and drop off right off of Harrison blvd, close to our home. We know that our dog is well taken care of and we trust this place to anyone that needs a place to watch their pet as they go on vacation.

In the normally sedate world of copyright law, an all-out fistfight has erupted in federal court in Denver.
Since the beginning of the year, the Las Vegas-based litigation firm Righthaven has filed 57 copyright- protection suits. The suits target bloggers and website operators who Righthaven says wrongfully posted copyrighted materials without getting permission. Taken together — and added to the approximately 200 other such suits Righthaven has filed in other states — the cases represent the latest front in the battle over how best to protect original content in a digitally interconnected age.
Righthaven, in court filings and public comments, positions itself as a knight for copyright holders at a time when it says protected content is being swiped much too frequently and when the usual approaches — asking the offender to remove the item, for instance — don't work. Righthaven founder Steven Gibson says the firm hopes its litigation efforts will have a ripple effect, stopping others who post but don't attribute.
"There's thousands if not millions of infringements," Gibson said. "The occurrence of infringements has skyrocketed."
Critics of the firm, though, see Righthaven in a different storybook role: that of "copyright troll." Righthaven's tactics — which include suing without first contacting the offender, attempting to seize targets' websites and often initially demanding large payments to settle cases — are bullying, the critics say. Many of those on the receiving end of a Righthaven suit say they have few resources with which to defend themselves.
"People have meritorious defenses, but the cost of defense causes them to settle anyway," said Kurt Opsahl, a senior staff attorney with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which has represented Righthaven targets.
What makes Righthaven especially unique in copyright law is that it is not a content-producer. Instead, Righthaven partners with two newspapers — The Denver Post and The Las Vegas Review-Journal — to acquire the copyrights of what it believes are misappropriated works. Righthaven then files suit alleging that its copyrights have been violated.
"Righthaven is engaged in a pretty straightforward, for-profit, take- no-prisoners litigation campaign," said Fort Collins attorney David Kerr, who has defended one Righthaven target and heard from many others.
Kerr says Righthaven's bullish approach could lead to court rulings that hurt copyright holders. And in recent weeks, Righthaven has suffered a series of legal blows.
In April, Colorado U.S District Court Judge John Kane expressed skepticism of the firm in denying one of Righthaven's motions.
"(Righthaven's) wishes to the contrary, the courts are not merely tools for encouraging and exacting settlements from Defendants cowed by the potential costs of litigation and liability," Kane wrote.
In a Nevada case, a court filing has called into question whether Righthaven genuinely controls the copyrights it sues over. The revelation caused Kane to freeze all 57 Colorado cases while he examines whether Righthaven has standing to sue.
Gibson said Righthaven has already won disputes over standing in other cases. He said allegations that Righthaven is a bully are "hogwash" and said the firm has sometimes agreed to settle for no money if the defendants can't afford to pay.
Sara Glines, a vice president for MediaNews Group, The Denver Post's owner, declined to comment for this story. Last month, she told The New York Times that copyright protection is important, noting that photos at the heart of several Righthaven cases had appeared on more than 300 websites without attribution to the newspaper or the photographer.
"We have invested heavily in creating quality content in our markets," she wrote The Times in an e-mail. "To allow others who have not shared in that investment to reap the benefit ultimately hurts our ability to continue to fund that investment at the same level."

Butler County man charged with supplying 'Theraflu' heroin in woman's death
A Butler County man bought his girlfriend a tainted batch of heroin that killed her in February, state police said.
Shayne W. Emery, 31, of West Liberty was in the Butler County prison on Friday, charged with delivering the drug that caused her death, drug possession and conspiracy.
Brittany Hays, 21, of Worth, Butler County, died on Feb. 2. Emery's arrest is the first of its kind in the county following a rash of fentanyl-laced heroin overdoses in Western Pennsylvania this winter, District Attorney Richard Goldinger said.
Goldinger said there's no indication that Emery was involved in any of the other tainted heroin overdoses. The Butler County Coroner's Office linked at least three deaths to heroin labeled "Theraflu."
Assistant Public Defender Joseph Smith said Emery applied for legal representation on Friday. He declined to comment because he hadn't seen the criminal complaint.
Authorities have said the mix of painkiller fentanyl and heroin led to nearly two dozen deaths in Western Pennsylvania.
According to a state police complaint, Hays was found dead in her bathroom with two used stamp bags of heroin and drug paraphernalia near her body. Investigators learned that Emery gave his sister, Amanda Emery, $400 that she used to buy 29 stamp bags of heroin on Jan. 31 in Lancaster. The bags were marked "Theraflu" or "Burberry."
On Feb. 1, Hays bought four stamp bags from her boyfriend for $60 and the two got high, according to the complaint. She left the house about 11 a.m. to go to work, police said. Her family found her dead about a day later.
Trooper Adam Peth wrote in the complaint that investigators asked Emery whether "he saw on the news that people were dying from using stamp bags of heroin marked Theraflu, and he advised that he did."
Peth said Emery told investigators that "everyone is trying to get Theraflu heroin, because it is more powerful."
Goldinger said he expects investigators to charge Amanda Emery with drug possession with intent to deliver, though there was no record of charges against her on Friday. She could not be reached for comment.

Buchlovice Things to Do
Having read about the Chateau, I was keen to see it and the garden's.
People by the name of Petrvald, from the town of Petrvald, owned an old, medieval fortress, and lived there until the 17th century. At the same time, Jan Detrich, also from Petrvald, built the Chateau for his wife Eleonora, who was from Italy. She decided the Chateau was too cold to live in, so they moved out, and the Petrvald family took over the Chateau.
The Chateau is built in the Italian Baroque style in 1707. The Petrvalds lived here till 1800, and then the "Berchtold's" moved in and lived here until 1945, when the castle was nationalized.
So, we arrived at the Entrance gate to be greeted by several Teacher's, and about 30 student's. One of the Teacher's was at the window buying ticket's.
This changed our mind's about seeing the inside of the Chateau, as we didn't want to be with a group of school children, so we only saw the gardens.
Inside the Chateau, can only be seen on a tour

Lucky for us, the Chateau Fuchsia garden was open. The discoverer of fuchsias, that have become one of the symbols of Castle Buchlovice, was a Franciscan monk and botanist Charles Plumier (1646-1704)
The Chateau's Fuchsia display is fantastic! There are approx 1200 varieties of these beautiful plants, and most of them were in flower. What a picture this was!
It is said to be, one of the largest and the most famous collections of Fuchsias in Central Europe. Since 1982, visitor's to the Chateau & Garden's have been able to come in here and have a look, and you can buy a Fuchsia too!

Time to explore the huge expanse of garden's............ In the 19th century, some of the gardens were extended and are of English style.
Now we are going for a walk around the beautiful Chateau Park. Spick and span was this garden! Lawn's were mowed, the hedge's trimmed and terraced in French style. Rose's were added for some colour.
The centre path at the back of the Chateau, had another gorgeous fountain. I loved the Urn's, they had some funny face's on them, and were filled with flower's. There were many Statue's scattered through-out the Park.
What I liked, was the way the garden's are set out. Where-ever I looked in the garden, I found a nice vista, and a view with the Chateau in the background. I really enjoyed this Chateau Park/Garden, and can see why it is known to be amongst the best parks in the Czech Republic. It also has some very important and historic collections of plants.
Entrance to the Garden/Park only is

Buchlovice Off The Beaten Path
Located high on a hill overlooking Buchlovice is Buchlov Castle. We followed Polesi Road up through the Chriby Hills to the Castle.
Pulling into the Car park, once again we were asked for money to park the Car.
I walked up the uneven, rough track to the Castle. Once there, I had a look around, and decided not to go inside. To me, it wasn't a real impressive Castle.
The Castle dates to the 13th century when it was built in gothic style, it has a defensive tower, a residential Palace for the Royal's, and a chapel also built in the Gothic style.
People were enjoying a meal and drink in the Cafe at the Castle.
Interesting .....The Castle belonged to the King, but was given to Noble families even while in his possession.
After the 16th century, it changed to private ownership, and then it was changed from Gothic, to a Renaissance Castle.
In 1945, the castle came under the ownership of the Czechoslovakia, and is now a recognized national monument.
It is one of the oldest castles in Moravia.
Located about 7kms from Buchlovice

On my return from the walk up the hill to Buchlov Castle, I made my way to the small Cafe located in the Car park, and bought an ice-cream. There are a quite a few outdoor seats, and some nice wood sculpture's. Children would love the rocking horse.
From here, there is a great view over the valley that we had driven from.Related to:
