BULLS GAP, Tenn. (WBIR) -- Theft charges are pending against a Hawkins County woman who allegedly stole $5,000 from her boyfriend and hid the cash in her rectum.
Black's boyfriend told authorities he was suspicious that his girlfriend was stealing from him. He set up a trap at 1 a.m. last week in his Bulls Gap home on N. Ridge Road by placing two envelopes filled with money totaling $5,000 in $100 bills and some medication in an old medicine bag on a foosball table for the night. When the boyfriend woke up at about 7 o'clock, he noticed that Black was still up, so he checked the bag and discovered that the contents were missing.
Black then became sick, according to the boyfriend, and threw up partially dissolved pills. According to a Hawkins County incident report, the boyfriend then asked her about the missing money, and she admitted that she wrapped up the cash and stuck it in her rectum.
When deputies arrived on scene, Black told them she stole the money and medication because her boyfriend was going to kick her out, and she needed money for a place to live.
First-responders drove her to the hospital because she was bleeding severely. At the hospital, the wad of money was removed from her rectum and collected as evidence.

|Board of Health gets update on public health improvement plan
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Board of Health members received an update on the Northeast Colorado Health Department's progress in developing their new public health improvement plan.
According to Dr. Tony Cappello, NCHD's district public health administrator, the agency has wrapped up several tiers of data collection, including gathering health statistics and data for the region, conversations and priorities from key community partners and the community health survey that was distributed during the summer.
"My staff has put an enormous amount of effort into this process, and we're finally starting to see some of that work come together," said Cappello. "Looking through the data and hearing what our community members and our stakeholders think about the health and environment in this region has been educational for us in local public health. Some of the issues that have risen were expected, but we've also learned some new things about the communities we serve and the issues that affect them."
After crunching all of the data, NCHD narrowed down the top health concerns to three—nutrition, physical activity and healthy weight as one issue, mental health and oral health. Those issues will now be the focus of a region-wide capacity assessment that will help ascertain what other organizations are doing now in regards to those issues, how they can help with them in the future, as well as pinpoint effective strategies to address them.
Once the capacity assessment is complete, NCHD will choose which issue, or issues, will become the focus of their strategic plan for the next five years.
"I feel we've been very lucky with the amount of feedback we've received from this process," said Cappello. "This is the first time this agency has taken such an in-depth look into what the needs are of the public we serve, comparing community and stakeholder concerns side by side with hard data. It was difficult to narrow the field to three issues, but I think that will make for a more manageable capacity assessment and allow us to better focus the resources of the region."
The public health improvement plan was just one of the requirements for local public health agencies with the passage of the Public Health Revitalization Act in 2008. According to Cappello, the plan is slated to be completed in June 2013. The data collected so far will be published online and available on NCHD's website by the beginning of January.

IBM at VoiceCon: keynote highlights, Friday Funnies and more
Jacques Pavlenyi 1000002W2A email@example.com Tags:  sametime ibm voicecon alistair-rennie event 3,416 Visits
Our Sametime team was very busy this week, what with our extensive presence and sponsorship at this year's event. While they're flying home and catching up, I wanted to highlight a few items of note.
As our team gets back on track, I'm sure we'll have additional updates for you next week. Until then, here's the next installment of our Friday Funnies.
IBM VoiceCon Keynote, Forbes, and CDW Survey
Jacques Pavlenyi 1000002W2A email@example.com Tags:  rennie alistair voicecon forbes.com forbes survey cdw 2,428 Visits
As our team gets all geared up for our General Manager Alistair Rennie's IBM Keynote at VoiceCon (Wednesday 9:15am - if you're in Orlando it's a Don't Miss Moment), a couple of news items we wanted to bring to your attention.
The first comes from an article on Forbes.com written by Alistair, "Managing Communcations Overload". The article discusses how information overload is partially a result of communications overload: too many information sources vying for our attention via too many tools and applications and devices. The answer isn't technology per se, but how to better integrate the multiplicity of tools and sources and devices into a more people-centric vision of collaboration:
Unified communication and collaboration (UC2) is not a technology itself. It is an approach that lets us use technology to help us work smarter. UC2 centers on delivering a unified experience for users, allowing them to communicate and collaborate seamlessly within the context of their daily work. People don't have to bounce around between applications to find, reach and collaborate with the people they need to get the job done.
Please comment on the Forbes article (or here) - we'de love to get your feedback.
The second comes from CDW, "UC Delivers on Payback Expectations", a survey of 915 IT professionals on the state of Unified Communications in the enterprise. Not sure how I missed this one, since it was released back on March 1 (I guess it was all those VoiceCon preparations that distracted us). A lot of very encouraging data showing the continued growth and penetration of unified communications in the Enterprise. My favorite quote:
"...71 percent of organizations that have fully implemented UC and track return on investment (ROI) say that ROI has met or exceeded their expectations." (emphasis mine)
I tweeted earlier in the week about a possible perceived "value gap" for Unified Communications. This survey shows that given the right business case, UC provides real, tangible value for enterprises. Something you should include in your next upgrade cycle or proposal to your CFO or CIO.

UC Strategies: IBM integrates unified communications with social software
Jacques Pavlenyi 1000002W2A email@example.com Tags:  #ucoms ucstrategies.com uc strategies social-software unified-communications 1,800 Visits
From our friends over at UCStrategies.com, a new article from Blair Pleasant on how IBM is integrating unified communications with social software. Several real customer examples are cited, with a nice quote or two, including:
IBM is not the only company to offer enterprise social software capabilities, or to integrate them with their UC capabilities but it has a head start over most of its competitors, which have only recently announced such capabilities.
If you are considering ways to improve asynchronous communications, teaming and sharing across your organization, you can see first hand that integration with Lotus social software, including Lotus Connections and Lotus Quickr.

Just so you don't think we don't have a sense of humor around here (wait, that's a double negative...), I thought we could start a Friday Funnies section. Here's a typically good one from Dilbert, which made me realize that maybe online meetings aren't ALWAYS better that in person.
Feel free to share other humorous sources and any particularly good ones I'll save up for future Fridays.

I don't know where else to go. I can't seem to get the support rep to respond for days, and we have a critical issue that has been open for two weeks. Case number 101937 - resulted in a bug being created (bug 79784) with no progress.
Is there anyone at Zimbra monitoring this forum that can help get someone to actually work on our issue? It is a critical issue, and affecting a large number of users within our organization.

MANASSAS, Va. (WUSA9) - Opinions varied as to who to blame, but they all agreed the shutdown a disgrace and that our elected leaders are to blame.
Al Kales, a retired airline mechanic who now lives in Haymarket, said the shutdown is "pitiful." He put the blame squarely on Republicans.
He said that American is the most affluent, richest nation in the world, everyone should have health care. He said he thinks Republicans are hurting themselves because people will remember in the next election.
Paige Given is a veterinary technician. Her sister works for the federal government and has hasn't been furloughed yet, but they're both worried.
"I think its ridiculous. This shutdown affects to many people, not just those furloughed but everybody around them. It is so unfair. People have bills to pay. They just need to come up with a plan. Hopefully, this won't last too long," Given said.
Another woman who would not give her name said she had no sympathy for federal workers. "I wish I had their benefits," she said.
Cheryl Knutti husband has as computer company and works with federal contracts. His business is on hold.
"The fact that people can't come to a compromise is immature in my opinion. The blaming and finger-pointing is unnecessary. The problem needs to be solved," she said.
Adrienne Bennett, a former teacher, said her step son is a U.S. Army soldier deployed in Afghanistan. His eight month deployment is over and he's is supposed to come home, but he's been told there are no planes, no pilots to do it because of the shutdown.
"I think that just sucks. Here's someone who has served his country and he can't come home because the people in Congress can't do their job?"
The former teacher has a solution. She said when children had disagreements in her school, they brought them to the principal's office, sat them down, but their knees together and told them to work it out. She said she was ready to go to Congress and put that plan into place if needed.

Renovations: The Outfield
Today we bring you more photos of the renovations at Kauffman Stadium, with a focus on the outfield experience. In 2009, you can take in a Royals game from a new view. You'll have more chances to catch a home run and on a summer day, the mist from the fountains will keep you cool.
In left field, the Royals Hall of Fame is taking shape. This area will also house five group suites that can host gatherings of 20 to 150 people. Outfield Box sections 104, 105, and 106 will be between the visitor's bullpen and the Hall of Fame building. Check out those sections on the 2009 seating chart.
As we move to left center field, you can see that the Tri-Vision signs are getting a new look. Outfield Box sections 101, 102, and 103 will be in front of the left field fountains. The new seating that surrounds the old Jumbotron platform will be Fountain Pavilion seating (sections 201, 202, and 203). Tickets in the Fountain Pavilion are just $7 for non-premium games. These tickets will be available only on the day of the game, so get to the stadium early!
Here's a closer look at center field, where the outfield wall has been removed. Construction crews are doing heavy dirt work in this area.
The right field area will feature a restaurant with a great view of the field.
Now you've seen a few of the new amenities in the outfield. Wet conditions prevented us from taking a close-up tour of the Outfield Plaza, the area beyond the new buildings and CrownVision. Look for a photo posting later in the offseason on the these features.

Thanks for showing us the progression of the renovation project!
I DO have a question. Will there be integrated wheelchair accessible seating in ALL of the various new seating configurations?

Reading around, I've found that there has been a bug raise (since version 4.5..) and a proposal to a NE user to start a ticket for an RFC modification procedure something...
I've looked on the full list of account attributes and haven't seen anything apparent.
So, here it comes:
Is there a way to set an expiration for any account, using the zimbra tools (zmprov, admin gui)?
I know it can be done using a cron job, provided that the expiry information is stored somewhere by the administrator, but this is not so elegant.
Has there been any outcome from the above procedures? If so, please give a hint.

iPhone 3.0 is brand new and I'm not sure Zimbra is causing this strange behavior.
When I use the webclient I can see my calendar and all shared ones.
With iCal on my desktop I have the same situation.
However, with my iPhone and a CalDAV account, I can see all calendars but the shared ones are empty. I can add new items in them though.

Wondering if anybody here is in the same predicament as me and has found good boots?
I've currently got Merrells, I love them, but they use fabric eyelets, which keep ripping. Other than that, besides worn soles, the boots were still in really good shape after a year.
I'm on my third and final warranty replacement pair (they were really cool about replacing them both times) and I said that I wasn't going to buy another pair, but I may end up having no choice but buy them again.
I went to Cabelas when I was in Michigan and tried on just about every pair of wide boots they had with no luck.
I tried a pair of Salomans, they are awesome and built like a tank, but not wide enough, even with a 1/2 size larger.
I'm looking for waterproof, uninsulated boots.

WOODBRIDGE, Va. (WUSA) -- Prince William County Police are looking for the driver or truck involved in a fatal hit and run on Bayside Ave in Woodbridge. The truck hit a man who had been shot and ran down the road.
Police say a 22-year-old man was involved in a fight with another man on Oct. 23 shortly before 7 p.m. at the Marumsco Plaza (13989 Jefferson Davis Hwy). The two were fighting in the parking lot when the other man fired a handgun at the victim, hitting him in the upper body. The shooting victim then fled, and started running on Bayside Avenue. He crossed paths with a truck and was struck.
The driver left the scene.
Police found the man accused of the shooting and took him into custody. They say the driver of the truck in the hit and run was not involved in the shooting. They have a vehicle lookout for a late model gray Ford pickup truck with an extended cab and tinted windows. Police believe the truck has minimal damage from the center to the front left driver side bumper.
The victim was flown to an area hospital with life threatening injuries, and on Nov. 5, he died from his injuries, say police.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Solvers at 703-670-3700 or 1-866-411-TIPS. You don't have to give your name and you could earn up to a $1,000 cash reward.

BUGS Program (Image 7)
Girls receive hands-on opportunities to engage in science activities through BUGS--Bringing Up Girls in Science Program. The program was run by associate professor Tandra Tyler-Wood of the University of North Texas (UNT) in Denton. [One of 7 related images. See Next Image.]
More about this Image
In an effort to encourage more girls to study science, professor Tandra Tyler-Wood of the University of North Texas (UNT) in Denton, launched a science-themed, after-school program for girls in the local school district: BUGS--Bringing Up Girls in Science.
In the first year, Tyler-Wood matched 30 fourth- and fifth-grade girls with teenage mentors recruited from the Texas Academy for Mathematics and Science (TAMS), a residential program that gives talented high school girls an opportunity to simultaneously earn their high school diplomas and finish two years of college at UNT. The student pairs met throughout the year to explore the scientific method through a series of hands-on experiments in an outdoor laboratory. The goal was to improve the younger girls' critical thinking skills but also to hold their interest.
Together, the students explored the properties of soil, the oceans and the sun. They identified the physical properties of matter, learned how organisms survive and adapt, and studied magnetism and conductivity. To learn about ecology and animal life cycles, they raised colonies of meal worms and formed hypotheses about their behavior. At the end of the year, the mentoring teams presented the results of their work to parents, teachers and friends.
In the following two years, the high school students were introduced to mentors of their own--science and engineering majors from the American Association of University Women. The college women offered advice on everything from career choices to college life.
At the end of the three-year program, Tyler-Wood concluded that the partnerships had in fact encouraged an interest in science among the younger students. Her research team conducted interviews with each participant before, during and after her participation in the project. Using standardized science assessment tests, the researchers followed the student's math and science skill levels. The researchers also tested a group of fourth- and fifth-grade girls who weren't involved in the BUGS program. Compared to this "contrast group," BUGS students showed a marked increase in enthusiasm, confidence and science skills at the end of the school year.
Tyler-Wood hopes to continue the BUGS project beyond its three-year demonstration phase and also, to export what she has learned from the project to the broader education community, both nationally and internationally.
The BUGS Program was supported by a National Science Foundation grant from the Division of Human Resource Development (HRD 01-14917) (Date of Image: October 2003)

City Guide : Pristina
In addition to being Kosovo's capital, Pristina is also its largest city and its political, cultural and economic center. The city, the history of which dates back to the middle ages, went under Ottoman rule in 1459. It was included in the Vilayet of Kosovo at the end of the 19th century. Pristina, which went under Serbian rule again after the Balkan Wars, stayed in the control of Germany and Italy after World War II. The city which became a part of Yugoslavia after that, remained under the interim administration of the United Nations from 1999 to 2008. Pristina became the capital city of Kosovo upon its declaration of independence on February 17, 2008. The city is in the process of rapid development as the capital city of Europe's youngest country. Kosovo's biggest airport, the only one from which civilian flights are made, its university and industrial establishments are located in Pristina. Albanians are the majority in the population. In addition; Turkish, Bosniak, Serbian, and Romanian people make up the rest of the population.
Tourist AttractionsA large number of historical buildings in Pristina were destroyed during the war. The city was modernized especially in the Yugoslavian era. In the city, which was partially destroyed during the Kosovo War, there are some historical buildings for you to see today.
Lap Mosque: Lap Mosque, which is located outside of city borders today, was built in 1470. It was destroyed to a large extent in the fire which took place in 1999. Today, the construction of new buildings is harmful to the surroundings of the mosque.
Sultan Mehmed Fatih Mosque: The mosque, which was built to the request of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror following the conquest of the Balkans in 1460, is located in the old city center. The mosque, which is one of the oldest buildings of the city, is filled with 18th century ornaments and pictures.
Great Hamam: The Turkish bath, which is located to the northwest of the Sultan Mehmed Fatih Mosque, dates back to the end of the 15th century. The area between the mosque and the Turkish bath used to be a meeting place for the people of Pristina during spring and summer months. Today, it is largely destroyed.
Yashar Pasha Mosque: It was built by Yashar Mehmed Pasha in 1834. It is still open for worship today.
The Ancient City of Ulpiana: Ulpiana is an ancient Roman city located 10 kilometers to the southeast of Pristina. In the region, where civilization dates back to 8th century BC, it was during the time of King Hadrian- the Roman ruler between 117-138 AD- that the city was built under the name of Ulpiana. The city, which was destroyed because of an earthquake in 518, was rebuilt by the order of King Justinian I. A basilica, city walls, tombs, ceramic sculptures, and mosaics were found during the excavations of the past fifty years.
Gračanica Monastery: It is one of the glorious examples of the Serbian-Orthodox architecture. It is located in the village of Lipljan, where also the ancient city of Ulpiana is located. The monastery, the construction of which was completed in the 14th century, is decorated with very rich frescoes. It is also recognized as one of the most beautiful examples of the late period Byzantine architecture.
Sahhat Kulla: The original bell in the clock tower, the construction of which was completed in the 19th century, was made in Moldavia in 1764. However, that bell was stolen in 2001.
Gadime Marble Cave: Gadime Marble Cave, located 20 kilometers from Pristina, is among the touristic places you must see. The 276 meter long cave was discovered in 1969 and opened to the public in 1976. The formation of the volcanic lava and tuff on the marble in the cave is dated to the time when the Kosovo Valley was also formed. The part of the cave that is open to the public is 500 meters long and touristic tours are scheduled in every two hours.
Culture & EntertainmentKosovo Museum, an example of Ottoman architecture, is the most important building in the cultural life of Pristina. It used to be the headquarters of the Yugoslav National Army. There are a large number of archeological and ethnological artifacts in this museum. Also the Emin Giku Ethnology Park, located in the old city center, is a magnificient example of the architecture of Kosovo. In this park, which is made up of three main buildings and two courtyards, artifacts and enactions of Kosovo's traditional lifestyle are displayed . In addition, the rich library of the University of Pristina provides an important cultural treasure to the city. The city has an energetic lifestyle as nearly half of the population is under the age of 25. Entertainment events take place outdoors, especially during spring and summer months. People usually spend time in street cafes and outdoor parks. Places near the university campus are preferred for live music, and indoor events and parties.
Food & DrinkYou are sure to find almost every dish of the Kosovo cuisine in Pristina. In Kosovo, where the traditional Balkan cuisine prevails, meat dishes and pastries are important. As Pristina is the capital city, there are some restaurants in which you may find international foods. In addition, as for fast food, there are places where kabob, pies, and doner are available. Panevino, Pellumbi, and Pishat are local tastes that stand out.
ShoppingIn Pristina, where big shopping malls are only beginning to operate, usually every item is purchased in stores and traditional bazaars. You may find souvenirs for very reasonable prices in Pristina. Especially silver works are not only beautiful but also of high quality.
Display All
Capital of Kosovo, the world's newest independent state, Prishtina is a center of culture and a university town. Situated on a highland at an international junction in the northeast of the country, it is some 585 to 640 meters above sea level. Nestled in the foothills of Mt. Gırmia to its east, the city looks out southwestwards over the vast Kosovo Plain. And the temperate breezes that blow from the north at sundown make for cool, refreshing nights for visitors and residents alike.
A country of around only 11,000 square kilometers, Kosovo is so small that you can easily add the neighboring provinces and villages to your visit to the capital. We can start our tour at Dardania, from in front of an apartment building draped with a three-story-high portrait of Bill Clinton which gives its name to the boulevard that runs past. From here we can continue on a pleasant stroll to the Street of Nene Tereza, aka Mother Theresa, Nobel prize winner for her work in India and much beloved here as a woman of Albanian descent. Around the square stand the Murad Mosque, the Yashar Pasha Mosque, the Old Government Building, now used as a museum, and the Fatih or Great Mosque.
The Sultan Murad (or Little Fatih/Market) Mosque, construction of which was begun by Sultan Bayezid the Thunderbolt in 1389 and completed during the reign of Mehmed the Conqueror, boasts a central dome atop a duodecagonal drum. The minaret and portico of this mosque have been rebuilt but its mihrab, minber and mahfil are all original. Next to the Kosovo Museum, the Yashar Pasha Mosque dates to 1835. But Prishtina's most magnificent mosque is the Mosque of Mehmed the Conqueror, dating to 1462 and standing next to the clock tower, another Ottoman monument. The building is of interest for its inlaid kündakâri door and wooden shutters.
Turning back, we can pop into the Prishtina Museum, which exhibits the remains not only of a town 15 kilometers south of the city known as Ulpiana in the Roman era but also, and even more importantly, of the region's neolithic period. Some Stone Age archaeological finds indicate the existence of a center of settlement here going back to 4000 B.C. The stone axes and ceramic vessels found in the excavations are believed to date to the Neolithic.
With the fall of Rome, the city of Prishtina began to shift its focus toward the main roads linking the Balkans and was therefore transformed into a leading commercial center along the major arteries of Southeast Europe. Following the Battle of Kosovo in 1389, the region came under Ottoman rule, remaining a part of the empire until the Balkan War of 1912. Between the two world wars Prishtina was a small city exhibiting remnants of Turkish-Islamic architecture in its marketplace. But the most salient reminder of the Ottomans in this geography is the Türbe or Mausoleum of Sultan Murad I on Kosovo Plain ten kilometers north of Prishtina where the great battle was fought.
According to the sources, when Murad I toured the site of the Battle of Kosovo, he took his life with his sword and his heart was buried here while his body was interred at the mosque complex in Bursa known today as the Muradiye. Bayezid the Thunderbolt had a tomb erected for him here on the plain. Restored countless times, it was given its most recent form through the contributions of Turkey's Ministry of Culture and Tourism and Department of Religious Affairs, and the Turkish Cooperation and Development Administration. The Murad Hüdavendigar Türbe today is the Anatolian Turks' most sacred place of pilgrimage and an historic site eagerly visited by tourists. Thronged by Kosovans on religious feast days, the türbe draws thousands of visitors from all over Kosovo as well as from the neighboring Sanjak region for the spring festival in early May when people descend on the site to seek cures for their ills, to make wishes or votive offerings, or simply to pray.
In varying states of repair today, other mosques that can be seen in Prishtina include the Piri Nazır Complex, and the Emir Alaaddin, Hasan Ağa, Hatuniye, Muhacir district (Kadriye), Ramazan Çavuş, Yaşar Çeribaşı, and Yusuf Çelebi mosques. Built as an annex to these religious structures but currently used as a house, the Danyal Dervish Lodge and Tomb and the Kadiri Dervish Lodge are interesting places to visit. But the most outstanding elements of Ottoman civilian architecture in Prishtina are the graceful Ottoman mansions - two-story with kitchens, vine-covered bowers, fountains, cantilevered balconies, spacious rooms with seats lining the walls, built-in wooden cupboards and small baths - which continue to exist today. Emincikler, Hûniler and Koca Dişliler (the building of the Prishtina Monuments Commission), to name just a few.
Eight kilometers east of Prishtina is the Gracanica Orthodox Monastery which dates to the 15th century. The 14th century frescoes in the Byzantine-style church are still fresh and vibrant.
Other pleasant nearby destinations, especially for nature lovers, include the Gırmia Forest (6 kilometers), Gadime Marble Cave (30 kilometers) and Brezovica Ski Center (70 kilometers). The towns of Prizren 80 kilometers south of the capital and İpek (Peja) 80 kilometers west should definitely be added to Kosovo's places to explore, while other must-see's include the entirely Turkish village of Mamusha, as well as Vustrria , Gilan, Mitrovice, Rugova, Kacanik, Ferizaj, Dragash, Isdog (Burim), Deçan, Radavc and Gjakova.
Among Kosovo's major medieval settlements are Prizren, Novo Brdo (Artana) and Vustrria. Fifty kilometers to the east of the Pristhina, Novo Brdo (Artana) was the commercial capital of the Balkans in the Middle Ages, and the remains of its historic citadel, mosque and dervish lodge, and medieval church all exhibit traces of the period. Continuing on the Gilan road from Novo Brdo (Artana), you can have a good rest in the rehabilitation center at the renowned Kllokot Spa with its curative waters and shed your weariness amidst the greenery. Janjeva, the second leading center of trade and artisanship in the Middle Ages, earned fame as a center of trade where the silver mined at Novo Brdo (Artana) and Trepca was cleaned.
In addition to the several private universities founded in modern times at Prishtina, which is also regarded as a center of higher education, some 24,000 students study in the various colleges of the state-run University of Prishtina, which was founded in the 1970s.
The capital today boasts several excellent transportation networks. Highways run to Nis and Belgrade in the north and Skopje in the south, and both northern and southern Europe are accessible by train from Kosovo Plain railroad station. Prishtina International Airport meanwhile offers connections to all the major centers of the world.
Casting off its war-weariness at the end of the last century in 1999, Prishtina on 17 February 2008 declared its independence and now awaits visitors who want to discover a youthful city of historic hidden beauty and safe streets.

Uniondale, NY (Sports Network) - Michael Grabner, Matt Martin and Kyle Okposo
all scored during a 3-goal second period that carried the New York Islanders
to a 4-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning in a Monday matinee at Nassau
David Ullstrom added a goal later on and John Tavares notched two assists for
the Islanders, who held off a late Tampa comeback effort to register their
first win of the young season with head coach Jack Capuano back behind the
Capuano missed New York's 2-1 loss to New Jersey in Saturday's opener after
undergoing surgery to treat a kidney stone.
The Islanders outshot the Lightning by a 44-26 count, with Evgeni Nabokov
stopping 23 shots to pick up the win despite surrendering three goals in the
third period.
Martin St. Louis and Steven Stamkos each had a goal and an assist for Tampa
Bay, which opened its 2012-13 campaign with a 6-3 decision over Washington.
Cory Conacher posted two assists and Anders Lindback finished with 40 saves

It does, however bother me that he is implying his hot dogs are worth $50 and accepting $50 from people who believe him. No hot dog is worth $50 and I believe peole who sell them for that amount should be exposed for their dishonesty. Billiard university doesn't exist. There is a website called www.billiarduniversity.com with a pool skill assessment test and little else. Take the test, upload the video to you tube, the Doc will confirm the score is correct and award a corresponding degree from "Billiard University; a non-entity. What is Billiard University? For $203.50 the test taker receives a diploma on parchment paper that costs $25 to print. Someone is paid to watch the video. Someone is paid to do the small amount of clerical work and ship and handle it. I suspect the Doc and his partner simply pocket the rest. Obviously, no one is stupid enough to believe believe Billiard University is a 4 year accredited university, but they must believe it is something. They must believe it is some pool version of a university and must believe it is of stature and because of this, receiving a diploma from this university is of significance. Otherwise, they wouldn't be shelling out $203.50 for a diploma. Billiard university simply does not exist as an entity and I believe that those who sell diplomas for 203.50 from this non-entity should ne exposed for their dishonesty.

Birth Place: Augusta, Maine, USA
For Rachel Nichols, life began in the bucolic New England community of Augusta, ME. With a population of less than 20,000, Augusta was the type of small town environment where dreams of Hollywood stardom were often viewed as impractical. It's for this reason that Nichols entered New York's Columbia University with the intention of becoming an analyst on Wall Street. As fate would have it, however, Nichols, who considers herself a "late bloomer" in the looks department, was randomly approached by a modeling agent while walking on the streets of New York City. The agent convinced her to take up a career in modeling, and before long Nichols was appearing in advertising campaigns for L'Oreal, Ni... Continue Bio >>

Mark Ballas Album: Dancing With the Stars Pro Previews 3 New Songs! (VIDEO)
Dancing With the Stars pro Mark Ballas is a man of many talents, and he's ready to take one of them to the next level. He teased his upcoming album recently, and now he's revealing not one, not two, but three snippets of new songs!
To no one's surprise, they're danceable. Even ones with mainly acoustic guitar have us dancing in our seats, and there's no doubt that Mark knows how to write.
In the video below, there are a handful of clips of him playing live and singing in the studio, plus him dishing a bit about the story behind each song. The "percussive, rhythmic feel" of his music comes from both his dancing and longtime guitar playing, and that's definitely prominent in one track, "She."
Mark explained that "She" has a "very strong flamenco vibe," and the lyrics are pretty spicy. "She moves so slow, girl got her body under control. She grooves so well, she gonna lay it down..." he croons, later singing, "Her body moves like a cobra and she's ready to strike. Go ahead and take a bite." Whoa!
The DWTS alum also shreds on the guitar with "throwback funk, rock, and blues" in songs like "Miss Incredible" and "Nicci." Though the latter is about a "poisonous relationship," he explains this is a "feel-good record [about] having a good time," and his goal is that the "hook gets stuck in your head before the song's over."
"All the girls around the world, you're so incredible," he sings in "Miss Incredible." We'll be singing that into the mirror as a pep talk for the foreseeable future...
What do you think of Mark's music? Check out the video below, and then hit the comments with your thoughts!

Hi all,
I've been using Zimbra - in combination with Outlook connector - for a long time. Last week, I had to add another mail account in Outlook, this time an Exchange account.
For some reason, Outlook has decided the new account's calendar should be the default Outlook calendar. As a result, I can't see my pending appointments (from my Zimbra calendar) in the Outlook taskbar any longer, really annoying.
When I close Outlook and try to set the Zimbra calendar as the default calendar through Configuration items > Mail > Data files it complains something about PST and OST files and switching off caching in the account settings and doesn't want to change it.
I have no idea where to start looking, any ideas?

An application for a permit to demolish the house at Westport's 15 Old Orchard Road, off Maple Avenue North, is in process. Built in 1940, the 1-1/2 story cape has 2,046-square feet and is situated on a .50-acre property. Because the house was built more than 50 years ago, the application will be reviewed by the Westport Historic District Commission. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com

USA West : Michelin's recommendations
The American West is unique for the diversity of its landscapes, climate, culture and history. Naturally there are cowboys and Indians, the Rocky Mountains, the Grand Canyon and the beaches of California…but there are also lunar landscapes, farms, huge orchards and garish neon signs. The West can be conjured up by the howl of a lone coyote or the thunder of a galloping bronco at an Oklahoma rodeo, by revving motorcycles in the Black Hills or the voices of the famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The incantations of a Hopi sorcerer and the monotonous jargon of a blond surfer may have nothing in common, yet they are both symbols of the American West.
Writers and artists in the late 19C created a legend out of this harsh but awe-inspiring land as a place riddled with danger. In the 20C the panoply of cowboys and Indians, soldiers, drop-outs and stoic pioneers was used in an oversimplified and excessive manner by the Hollywood film industry, another local invention. To this day the legend continues to smooth over reality. So, why not go and find out for yourself what it's all about!

Once GOP stronghold, West veers into Dems' column
DENVER A political generation ago, the West signaled the nation's rightward swing, from the emergence of Ronald Reagan to the success of tax-limitation ballot measures in California and Colorado.
Now, however, the fabled expanse of deserts, jagged peaks, and emerald coastlines is trending in a different direction.
The West has become largely Democratic terrain.
Voters in Washington state in November legalized marijuana and upheld the legality of gay marriage. New Mexico was once a tightly contested state, but Republicans ceded it to Democrats in the presidential campaign.
There are, as always, exceptions.
Lightly populated Idaho and Wyoming remain strongly Republican, as does Utah. Democrats are struggling in Arizona, where the immigration debate has given Republicans a lock on statewide offices but may provide Democrats an opening by firming up their support among the state's growing Hispanic population.
Still, the overall trend is clear, according to analysts on all sides of the political spectrum.
"It's just a different world," said Bill Carrick, a Democratic strategist in Los Angeles who has worked widely in the region. "Nevada became the next California and now Arizona looks like it will become the next Nevada. ... It's just pushing the West further and further from Republicans."
The shift in a region already imbued with a libertarian spirit is the result of several factors. One is the growing number of people who are seeking a better quality of life by moving from more liberal states. Also, the expanding immigrant population is turned off by increasingly hard-line Republican immigration proposals.
"Look at the migration patterns," said Sig Rogich, a Republican consultant in Las Vegas who worked on Reagan's presidential campaigns. "You're seeing the aftermath of a new generation of young men and women whose parents moved westward."
Western states generally have weak political parties, part of the legacy of their political maturation during the progressive era at the start of the 20th century. Most local elections are nonpartisan affairs and voters often have the right to set policy unilaterally via ballot initiative. Western voters long have cherished nonpartisan independence, even when they voted a relatively straight party ticket.
"The West is the most American part of America," said Dave Kopel of the Independence Institute, a libertarian think tank in Denver. "It is a place where you have much more respect for individual choice and you have more ability to be who you want to be."
During the 1980s and 1990s, that libertarian streak fed a series of Republican victories as voters approved tax-limitation initiatives, protested federal environmental rules and kept statehouses firmly in the GOP's hands. But nowadays it means something else, Carrick said.
"The libertarian thing is no longer about property rights or gun rights," he said. "It's now about letting people live their lives as they choose."
Ironically, Republicans' success may have contributed to that shift.
The party managed to enshrine staunch anti-tax measures in several states' constitutions through ballot initiatives, making it very difficult to raise taxes in California, Colorado and Washington state.
As a result, Democrats can't easily raise revenue, but they also can't be attacked for doing so, said Ron Dotzauer, a Seattle-based Democratic strategist. "They can't be defined as the pro-tax group because they can't tax," he said.
There are prominent Republicans who demonstrate that the party can still win the region.
Brian Sandoval in Nevada and Susana Martinez in New Mexico are popular Republican governors, but their relatively moderate stances often put them at odds with the national party. Both, for example, just agreed to the Medicaid expansion under President Barack Obama's health care plan, something that is anathema to many conservative Republicans.

Ned Yost media session: May 16
In Sunday's interview with manager Ned Yost, Yost began the conversation by talking about the lineup. Yost said he didn't change today's order because he wants to get his feet on the ground, especially after a quick turnaround from last night's game, but will likely start changing it up while on the road. Yost continued by saying that eventually he wants a set lineup and will try to refrain from moving hitters up and down in the order on a regular basis. The manager also mentioned that he sees a couple candidates for the Royals three-hole, but he would like to keep a certain comfort level in the clubhouse, so he doesn't want to make any drastic changes.
Yost also discussed the work ethics of several players, including Scott Podsednik, whom he managed in Milwaukee, Mike Aviles and Mitch Maier. The manager said that all three are good examples of players taking full advantage of opportunities. Yost also expressed that the three represent the type of players he wants to manage–those who come willing to work their tails off every single day. The new manager doesn't want players who are satisfied with being good, but rather those who want to be great.
Finally, Yost provided brief injury updates on Jose Guillen, Robinson Tejeda, John Parrish, and Rick Ankiel. Yost said that after getting hit in last night's game, Guillen's finger went numb for about an inning but is fine now. Additionally, Tejeda (strained left calf) feels virtually no pain in his leg, Parrish (inflamed rotator cuff) is feeling better, and Ankiel (right quad strain) is also feeling better but is still some days away. Both Parrish and Ankiel will go out on rehab assignments before they return to Kauffman.

Whether you're looking for a job or trying to advance your career, networking is very important (in a recent HotJobs poll, 57 percent of respondents said that networking was a factor in landing their most recent job). And networking shouldn't end when you log off of LinkedIn or head home from a conference. Valuable contacts are on the perimeter of your social circle, they're the parents of your kids' school chums, they're sitting next to you on airplanes--basically, they're all around you every day. So how do you turn these people from relative strangers into valuable network contacts?
By Jane Genova, AOL JobsMark Zuckerberg, Time magazine's Person of the Year, might be very much like you. Once you realize those attitudes, values, and behaviors you have in common, you might decide to also take the road less traveled -- which could lead to unusual accomplishment.
During the holiday season, the notion of tipping those who provide you service becomes a hot topic. However, it is important to remember that tips are a year-round affair for many. The questions that plague most people are: "Who do I tip?" and "How much do I tip them?"
Fear not, for PayScale is to the rescue. We recently released our 5th annual Tipping Study that answers these questions and then some. In this post, I will highlight interesting results from our study, as well as detail the methodology.
Do you work in a job where tips are commonplace and are wondering how your pay fares? Find out with a free PayScale salary report.
By Bridget Quigg, PayScale.com
Has your tipping etiquette changed so that you give a little less these days? Americans' household budgets have been under stress in the last few years and people's willingness to tip bartenders, hairdressers and other people in the service industry has gone down and stayed down, according to data collected by online salary database PayScale.com.

Many artists struggle to find a balance between work and art, wondering if they should get a day job, become a commercial artist, or focus on a fine art career. Before committing to the life of an artist, many want to know: can you really make a career as an artist? According to this Salary Story, the answer is yes, but it won't necessarily be easy. Patrick Howe, an artist, art instructor and owner of a Seattle art gallery, describes how he made the leap from toiling at a day job to doing what he loves. If you're a struggling artist or just want to know more about art careers, don't miss Patrick's advice on what it takes to create a successful fine art career.

Years later, I still remember that sinking feeling, just after I'd hit the Send button after writing an email complaining about an editor. My worst virtual fear was quickly confirmed: Yes, I had sent my bit of snark to the editor instead of my friend--and no, the editor wasn't amused.
Did you go to the movie theater more during the recession? What about buying video games or board games? They say that people spend a little more on entertainment during economic downturns because it makes the hard times a little easier. If this is true, then movie makers and those working in the entertainment industry should have seen a nice salary boost in the last few years.
What is the spookiest job you can think of? Maybe it's one where you work during the middle of the night, in the dark, alone. Or, perhaps it's the gig with the most blood, guts and gore.
Let's see what the scariest jobs pay and which one you might like to try.

Details/Features –+
- Length: 27.5", 26.0"
- Patterns: Quick, Backstrom
- Pro-Balance blade and handle design for improved stick feel and weight distribution.
Technology –+
Fused One-Piece Construction
Molded stick in two separate processes where shaft and blade are fused by heat and pressure in lower area of stick. This connection process leads to consistent flex and increased torsional strength.
Multi-Bias Fiber
New shaft design using multilateral and omnidirectional fiber placement to reinforce the shaft internally and protect it from cracking or fatigue. Continuous fibers create a network of carbon strands that help resist slash or puck impact.
Carbon Elite Construction
Warrior's proprietary elite construction package is the ultimate combination of light weight and and power. High-modulus, low-weight aerospace-grade laminate provides strength under extreme flex, and most efficient energy transfer.
Neutral Zone Weighted
Concentrated center weight makes handle and blade feel super light for lightning-quick reflex movement and less blocker-hand fatigue.
Twister Grip
Twister Grip raised flow pattern in top paddle area for added grip and less stick twisting on high-impact shots. Flow pattern also allows for quick release for poke checking and shooting.
Vibex Vibration Dampener
First use of this revolutionary material in the aid of vibration and shock reduction in composite goalie sticks. Less vibration leads to a more solid paddle feel and deadens puck rebound. Reduced vibration shock to the blocker hand and closer to a form core feel without the weight.
Big Bang
Woven fiber reinforced shell for added durability in key impact areas in handle, paddle and blade. Increased impact durability and more solid feel on impact.
