Oklahoma football: OU adds juco players Quincy Russell, Josiah St. John
Recently, Oklahoma's biggest concerns with its recruiting class were at defensive tackle and offensive line.
Wednesday, on the opening day of the junior college midterm signing period, the Sooners got a boost in both.
First, Trinity Valley (Texas) defensive tackle Quincy Russell signed with OU. Then later in the day his junior college teammate, offensive tackle Josiah St. John, committed to Oklahoma.
Then the Sooners got an even bigger boost on the offensive line when Houston Stratford offensive tackle Christian Daimler committed to the Sooners after decommitting from Arizona State earlier in the day.
Russell (6-foot-3, 300 pounds) picked OU over Nebraska and also had offers from Oklahoma State, Baylor, Houston, TCU and Texas Tech.
He signed with Texas out of high school but wound up at Trinity after failing to qualify academically.
Russell was named an NJCAA All-American after recording 75 tackles and a pair of sacks for the Cardinals.
Russell is expected to enroll in January. St. John, who has three years to play two in Norman, might not arrive in Norman until after the spring semester.
The Sooners did not have any interior defensive linemen committed until late last week when Dallas Skyline's Kerrick Huggins switched his commitment from Texas A&M to the Sooners.
With defensive tackles Jamarkus McFarland, Casey Walker and Stacy McGee set to graduate, along with David King, who split time between tackle and end, the Sooners have plenty of need for the spot in the 2013 class.
Huggins and other high school recruits cannot sign until Feb. 6.
Offensive line has been an even bigger concern for the Sooners.
San Antonio high schooler Matt Beyer and Tulsa Union's Dalton Rodriguez once gave OU a pair of commitments there, but Beyer's football career ended because of injury and Rodriguez recently switched his commitment to Tulsa in part so he could stay on the defensive side.
St. John (6-6, 305) picked the Sooners over Kansas. He also had offers from Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, West Virginia, Oregon State and Arkansas among others.
Daimler (6-6, 270) had been committed to the Sun Devils since October but announced late in the afternoon on Twitter that he had withdrawn his commitment. A little more than three hours later, he announced that he'd committed to the Sooners.
Daimler also had offers from Colorado, Colorado State and Washington State among others.
Kicker/punter Jed Barnett of Laney Community College also signed Wednesday.
Barnett originally went to California out of high school.
Barnett averaged more than 50 yards per punt in high school.
The Sooners missed out on at least one other target Wednesday, when tight end Emmanuel Bibbs stuck with his original commitment and signed with Iowa State despite a late push from Oklahoma.

Imperfect competition
An imperfect competitive market is a type of market where the conditions of the perfect competitive markets are not satisfied. Perfect competitive makes indicate that no one firm in the market can influence market prices, there are no barriers to entry and there is free exit from this market, suppliers offer homogenous goods and there exist information asymmetry that encourages price and costs asymmetry. The imperfect market will have characteristics that are opposite of the perfect competition market. The types of imperfect competition are the monopoly (single seller), monopolistic competition (many sellers manufacturing highly differentiated goods), oligopoly (few sellers), duopoly, monopsony (single buyer) and oligopsony (few buyers).Imperfect might also be caused by other characteristics other than the firm's behavior. An example is imperfect competition due to different time lag in the market.
Characteristics of monopolistic competition
- Under these types of market structure there are many buyers and sellers hence no individual buyer or seller can influence the market to his/her own favor.
- The products sold in this market are highly differentiable and consumers will choose to buy any product according to their taste and preference, brand loyalty, level of advertisement and the purchasing power of consumers.
- There is a relatively small freedom for firm's entry and exit from this market.
- A firm has the capability of forming a tiny monopoly because of product differentiation in the market. This will happen if the firms have created brands for their products, or have superior advertising policy.
- Some firms will have a significant level of influence on the prices they charge for their goods and services.
Characteristics of oligopoly market structure
- The market structure is composed of few but large numbers of firms.
- A huge number of the firms in this market structure will make up the industry
- The products sold in this market are highly differentiable due to branding. Therefore although the products seem to be homogenous branding makes them very unique.
- There exists a high level of barrier to entry by the already established players.
- There is no price competition.
- The product prices are very stable and do not fluctuate constantly this is shown by the kinked demand curve.
- There is potential collusion by firms in this market either to set prices or drive some firms out of the market.
- The firm in this market has the potential to earn abnormal profits.
- There is high degree of interdependence between the firms in the market
The level of oligopoly is a measured quantity .the concentration ratio will be used to calculate the market share accounted for by each firm operating in the industry. A special type of the oligopoly market structure is the duopoly. In this type of market there are only two large firma that dominate the market. There will be the price lead between the two market who will dictates the market prices will the other firm will be reduced to a price follower. The two firms will also create restriction for firm that want to join the market hence creating a free market for themselves to earn abnormal profits.

May 26, 2016
Michigan Senator Debbie Stabenow says the nation's first-responders do not have the communication equipment they need to effectively deal with emergencies.
Stabenow unsuccessfully sought new homeland security funding that would have helped police, fire and rescue, and emergency responders communicate with law enforcement and Homeland Security officials.
Law enforcement and emergency rescue officials complain that they are frequently unable to coordinate with federal agencies during an emergency. Michigan officials also note the state has about 1200 fewer police officers on the street compared to pre-September 11 levels.
Stabenow's measure was defeated as part of a larger Homeland Security spending plan debated by the Senate.

Re: Thunderbolt--Displayport cable question please.......
If you ever hang another device off the same Thunderbolt port, the "regular" DisplayPort monitor will have to be the only monitor on that Thunderbolt chain, and the last device on the chain.
But all you need for the monitor is an ordinary (mini)DisplayPort cable.

We stopped on a number of sites on our trip and Umberleigh was by far one of the best. A warm and friendly welcome from Ron & Jo the site managers, who couldn't be more helpful. And on talking to other campers they too had the same experience and were impressed with what the site had to offer. The facilities were very clean and more than adequate. This is an open site and the grass is kept very clean and tidy and the pitches are mainly level. Perfect site for walking and relaxing, with the best dog walk on the network. The games room offers an alternative on rainy days. Barnstaple is a good town to visit, catering for all your needs. RHS Rosemoor is a great visitor attraction for gardeners.

'My role is to shape, structure and systemize Guyana's football'
-says GFF president Christopher Matthias
Guyana Football Federation (GFF) President Christopher Matthias says that despite the calls for him to step down by various individuals, he will not resign from the institution's top post.
Speaking in an exclusive interview, Matthias said:"I will not resign from the post, my role is to shape, structure and systemize Guyana's football and find my successor. This is this generation's time to run football for their development, generation now for generation next."
He added:"It is called sustainable development not fantasy football. The people who are calling for me to resign are few, infinitesimal in number and when one was to check their track record, it leaves much to be desired and I can't do worse than they have done.
"Who are the people that are fighting, Aubrey Henry, who was Colin Klass's treasurer for a number of years, Franklin Wilson, who was Vice President for years, Aubrey Hutson, who sat on the general council and observed the atrocities for a number of years and did nothing about it, Alfred King, who is the Permanent Secretary for Sports and has developed no sport policy."
Questioned if he ever considered stepping down from the post, the GFF chief said:"The thought crossed my mind once but thousands of right thinking Guyanese all urged me not to entertain that thought.
"Moreover I have done much more for the development and the enrichment of the players than those few would have done. FIFA, CONCACAF, CFU and the whole of Guyana know that those individuals are only after FIFA's money and nothing else.
"Guyana's football was established in 1902 which makes it 112 years old, we are older than FIFA itself. In the last 15 years we received one billion 352 million Guyana dollars with the last being the 314 million in 2012. Our office is basically a house and we are still playing mortgage for it.
"We owe the transportation industry seven million, we owe the airline industry another seven million and we owe the hotel industry in excess of 20 million," he added.
Matthias said: "Moreover the basic ingredient for the development of football which are qualified coaches, educated and/or disciplined players, resources such as balls, boots, training gears etc. and a proper playing surface we have not provided this footballing nation in the 112 years.
"In addition we have not provided a quality stand, as much as a bleacher for spectators who spend hours watching our game," he said.

If you're ready to entertain a large group of people, then the Deluxe Women's Sexy Cabaret Costume is certainly the piece for you. This costume set includes a black corset with red feather accents on both the front and back. The tutu style skirt included is covered in black feathers in the front and a mix of black and red in the back. Because of the shortness of the skirt, we've also included a pair of black ruffled panties. You'll be a sight to remember when you wear this incredibly sexy costume out to an adult theme party. Considering the garter straps included on this costume, a pair of thigh highs would be a great purchase that would really finish out the costume as well as a nice showgirls hat. Be a sight to behold this year for the party.

My personal hobby website
Equine Kingdom: My
daughter Sally's horse riding website
Amateur astronomy is one of those hobbies in which I participated avidly for about five years while in the U.S.
Air Force and for a couple years after separating. During that time I observed as often as time and atmospheric
conditions permitted. While at Robins AFB, in Warner Robins, Georgia, I belonged to the Macon Amateur Astronomy
club and spent quite a few Friday evenings operating the museum's/club's 8", 10" and 14" Celestron telescopes both
for private observation and for assisting the public after the planetarium show. The club took a couple trips to
the Fernbank Science Center in Atlanta and got to look through
their 32" reflector, which at the time (circa 1980) was the largest reflecting telescope
in the southeast.
Amateur Astronomy Resources
Today, of course, private 30" Dobsonians are as affordable as motorcycles. A picture of me and my 8" Newtonian
reflector is given below. I ended up selling it after getting married to help pay the mortgage
(sold all the R/C stuff, too). Only naked-eye (no longer anywhere
near my former 20/15 vision) and my trusty binoculars remain for observing over the past 20 years. Recently,
have I begun reacquiring some of my "toys" from yesteryear. I have not purchased another telescope yet, but the
good thing is that now the state of the art is orders of magnitude better than where I left off.

Loan Overview

Loan Updates
Jaqueline is a single mother and head of the family, with one four-year-old child whom she has always needed to support on her own as his father has never contributed anything financially towards his support.
On seeing that she needed to generate income for her household, Jaqueline started selling personal care products through catalogs. Thanks to this, she generated sufficient income to support her child. Bit by bit, she has been able to improve her business, and now she has been able to open a miscellany store where she sells personal care products for such as grooming tools, women's accessories, and also stationery products. Thanks to this, her sales have increased considerably, and her child has been able to enjoy a better quality of life.
With the intent of having her business well-stocked with stationery inventory for the start of the school year, Jaqueline wants to stock up her miscellany store with these products. However, she doesn't have sufficient capital to undertake the purchase of these products for her customers. It is for this reason that Jaqueline has the hope that a loan will give her the possibility of being able to purchase stationery products such as notebooks, cards, pens, and scratch pads, among other things, and she will be able to be well-stocked for the start of the academic year.
Jaqueline hopes that her business' sales will continue to grow, so that she can continue moving her child ahead in life. Additionally, she dreams that her child will be able to receive a quality education, and in the future attend university.

View original language description ↓
Jaqueline es una madre soltera cabeza de familia de 1 hijo de 4 años a quien siempre le ha tenido que brindar el sustento por su propia cuenta, pues su padre nunca ha contribuido con un aporte económico para su sostenimiento. Jaqueline en vista de que debía generar los ingresos para su hogar, comenzó vendiendo productos de uso personal a través de catálogos, y gracias a esto generaba los ingresos suficientes para el sostenimiento de su hijo. Poco a poco ha ido mejorando su negocio, y ahora ha podido tener una miscelánea en la que ofrece productos de uso personal como implementos de aseo, accesorios para dama y también productos de papelería, gracias a esto sus ventas han aumentado considerablemente y su hijo ha podido gozar de una mejor calidad de vida. Con el ánimo de tener su negocio con un buen nivel de inventario de papelería para el inicio de la temporada escolar, Jaqueline quiere surtir su miscelánea con estos productos, sin embargo no cuenta con el capital suficiente para realizar la compra de estos productos a sus clientes. Es por esto que Jaqueline tiene la esperanza en que un préstamo le brindará la posibilidad de acceder a la compra de productos de papelería como cuadernos, cartulinas, lapiceros, borradores, entre otros, y poder tener un buen surtido para el inicio de la temporada escolar.
Jaqueline espera que su negocio siga aumentando las ventas para poder seguir sacando adelante a su hijo, además, sueña con que su hijo pueda acceder a una educación de calidad y en un futuro a una educación universitaria.
Additional Information
Important Information
This loan is structured on Kiva as a bullet loan, which means a single payment is required at the end of the loan term. By Colombian law, Kiva's partner Interactuar is required to offer borrowers loans with a variable interest rate that fluctuates with the market rate. Because fixed monthly payments are applied first to interest and then to principal, Interactuar is unable to predict upfront what portion of each repayment would go towards the loan principal. This creates a challenge with Kiva's system, which doesn't allow for unpredictable principal payments, and can result in some Interactuar clients appearing falsely delinquent. To remedy this, the loan has an end-of-term repayment plan on Kiva, but the borrower will continue scheduled monthly repayments to Interactuar, who will then pass along the principal amount to Kiva lenders. This means that you may see repayments made on this loan throughout the repayment term, as opposed to receiving repayment in full at the end of the loan term.

Reeling Film Festival Opening Night Gala
Reeling: The Chicago LGBT International Film Festival rolls out the red carpet for the 31st edition of the world's second oldest festival of its kind.
The opening night gala — the most anticipated night of the festival — will be on Thursday, November 7 at the Music Box Theatre, kicking off eight days of a stellar lineup of LGBT films.
The film screening will be G.B.F.
Reception: After the screening, join us at the Laugh Factory (3175 N. Broadway) for a reception to kick off Reeling31! Enjoy delicious hors d'oeuvres by Jordan's Food of Distinction, Heineken beer and a line-up of hilarious LGBT stand-up comics!
Opening Night: $15 (screening only) or $40 (screening plus after-party at The Laugh Factory) (members $13/$38)
directed by Darren Stein starring Natasha Lyonne, Michael J. Willett, Megan Mullally in English
Beloved teen comedies Clueless and Mean Girls mix it up with elements of Camp and Glee when the most popular girls in high school duke it out to acquire fashion's newest must-have accessory: a Gay Best Friend.
When the adorable Tanner (Michael J. Willett) unexpectedly becomes the school's first openly gay student, nothing will stop these modern day Heathers from making him their new bestie. As the race is on to bag Tanner, he must choose between his skyrocketing popularity and the friends he is leaving behind – including the droll, endearing Brent (Paul Iacono) who is nursing his own secret crush on his former best friend.
Darren Stein (Jawbreaker) returns with another comic send-up of high school clique culture that has delighted festival audiences with its enthusiastic, vibrant young cast and hot, candy colored look.

New York Regulators Deny Water Permit for Nuclear Plant
NEW YORK -- New York environmental regulators have denied a key water-quality certification Entergy Corp. ETR 0.09 % needs to extend by 20 years its license to operate the 2,000-megawatt Indian Point nuclear-power plant.
The New York Department of Environmental Conservation said in a letter to Entergy dated April 2 that the two units of the plant "do not and will not comply with existing New York State water quality standards," even with the addition of a new screening technology favored by Entergy to protect aquatic life. The plant's existing "once-through" system withdraws and returns as much as 2.5 billion gallons of Hudson River water a day for cooling, a system blamed by environmentalists for damaging the river's ecosystem and killing millions of fish a year, including the endangered shortnose sturgeon.
Certification under the Clean Water Act is required before the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission can approve an extension of the operating license for Indian Point, which generates enough electricity to power approximately 2 million homes and is major power source for New York City. The licenses for Indian Point units 2 and 3, which came online in the 1970s, are due to expire in September 2013 and December 2015, respectively.
The denial of the water permit comes less than a month after New York's utility regulator rejected Entergy's plan to spin off five of its nuclear power plants into a new company, threatening the creation of the nation's first stand-alone nuclear generator after a lengthy regulatory battle. It also follows the Vermont Senate's February rejection of a 20-year extension of the operating license for the state's sole nuclear power plant, Vermont Yankee, which is also owned by Entergy.
Entergy spokesman Jim Steets confirmed the company had received a notice of denial from the New York regulator late Friday afternoon.
"We expect to disagree with the findings," but "there's not much we can say about that because we haven't had a chance to review [the letter]," Steets said.
Entergy has 30 days to request a public hearing on the permit's rejection. While the permit, known as a 401 for its section of the Clean Water Act, is a federal certification, states largely have control over approving or denying environmental permits, with the oversight of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The company purchased the plants about a decade ago and launched its efforts to extend the licenses in late 2006.
Although rejection of the water-quality permit will preclude approval of an extension of the plant's license, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission will continue its review of Entergy's application, said NRC spokeswoman Diane Screnci, adding a final environmental impact statement is due out in May.
"Our process still has a ways to go," she said.
Entergy's Steets said the company believes the so-called wedge-wire system it has proposed to screen out fish and larvae during water intake is more appropriate for the plant than a closed-loop system. Such a closed system would require the construction of cooling towers, take 15 years to be approved and built and cost about $1 billion, he said.
The company has said the nuclear plant, which doesn't emit greenhouse gases linked to climate change, is vital for the region. Environmentalists counter by saying sufficient new and relatively clean power sources could be brought online to make up for Indian Point's loss.
"That power is replaceable," said Alex Matthiessen, president of environmental group Riverkeeper. "The evidence for why the plant doesn't meet state water-quality standards is overwhelming," he said, adding Indian Point accounts for the deaths of about a billion fish a year and that the group estimates cooling towers could be constructed for $200 million to $300 million.

Borrego golf water comes at expense of farmland
Rams Hill agreement means palms, citrus to be fallowed
BORREGO SPRINGS A settlement reached this week with the Borrego Water District that will breathe new life into the dormant Rams Hill golf course will come at the expense of hundreds of acres of grapefruit and palm-tree groves elsewhere in town.
As part of a complicated deal, the new owners of Rams Hill — a master-planned residential community that features a Tom Fazio designed golf course — have agreed to purchase farms and ranches that hold the trees and let them go fallow over the next five years.
It's a compromise favoring recreation over agriculture that's likely to be repeated on a grander scale in the coming years in this desert community, where water is increasingly short supply — a reality that has little to do with the state's current drought.
The community has for many years been drawing water out of the ground at a faster rate than can be replenished in its underground aquifer — a practice the water district calls an "overdraft." "As most of you know, this board has made addressing the overdraft a priority," Borrego Water District President Beth Hart said Friday at a public meeting held to discuss the settlement.
Under the deal reached this week, Rams Hill owners — T2 Borrego LLC — can buy and use two water district wells on their property, and also drill more. The company must fallow farmland for water credits equal to the amount of water they think they'll need to irrigate the golf course. The fallowing will occur over five years, with penalties assessed if the fallowing schedule is not implemented in a timely fashion.
T2 Borrego is currently in escrow on one farm and are negotiating to purchase several other properties.
About 70 percent of the water beneath the Borrego Valley is used by farmers and ranchers. Another 20 percent goes for recreational uses such as golf courses and hotels, and the remaining 10 percent is consumed by residential users.
Fallowing agricultural land has been talked about for a long time in the area, but it appears that it will become a more common method of dealing with the groundwater issues, members of the water board said Friday.
Many Borregans wonder what fallowing may do to the dynamics of the town in the long run. Working farms employ farm workers. Stop farming, and those jobs go away.
But members of the water board said Friday they believe any jobs lost by the fallowing will hopefully be offset by jobs that are created at the golf course.
Don Blaikie, a full-time Rams Hill resident, said Friday he was thrilled an agreement had been reached, but said it took way too long to happen.
"Thank God it's done," he said. "Now hopefully this community will be able to have its rebirth properly and enjoy the success people have put their hard-earned earnings into in buying homes here."
Blaikie said he has heard that one of the properties that will be fallowed is 300 acres and has 50,000 palm trees on it.
"What are you going to do with 50,000 trees?" he said. "That's a lot of palm trees."
The Rams Hill development has struggled for nearly two decades and the property has changed hands roughly 11 times since home construction began in the late 1980s. The recession hit the community hard and in 2009, the then-owner sold the main well that irrigated the course to the water district.
Two years later, having suffered huge financial losses, that owner shut down the golf course and sold off much of the irrigation equipment. The course went brown fast, as did many of its trees and other landscaping features.

Hi all,
I am planning for a new system and hoping to put in the HD4870 card in it. Its is still not avaliable in India so i'll get the system first and then get the card when it launches in India.
I was thinking as to what are the other componets required for the card to run properly.
I am planning for a Samsung 19" monitor. Not sure abt the resolution.
AMD Phenom X4 9550 processor and a dual slot crossfire enabled mobo.
plus i would be getting a 2GB ddr2 ram and upgrade it along with getting the card.
Can anyone suggest if i need a cooling system like water cooling or something?
But more importantly, i need to know what kind of power supply unit i need to support this system?
Also, what is the cheapest mobo that will run the system with the card. I mean... its GDDR5 !!! will the mobo will depend on it.. i am not sure... Please suggest me in this regard.
the Asus 780 chipset mobo looks good with a HD3200 onboard graphics, that would be good enough to sustain my old games like most wanted, dmc3 and prince of persia...(wanna play them again to get back my gaming habits before looking forward to assassins creed, crysis and the likes )
Looking forward for ur help. Would be getting the system in the first week of Aug when i'll move to a new city.

Jiuquan gets its name from a line of a poem, that is, "there is a spring under the city and the water in the spring tastes like wine". Jiuquan is " the hometown of the Dunhuang art " and " the cradle of China's aerospace industry". Mountain, basin, gobi and oasis are the important elements of the landscape in Jiuquan. Qilian Mountains spans large area and stretches far. Snow, ice and glacier can been seen here and there in places above 4,000 meters above sea level. The gobi and desert are broad and boundless. The black gravels in the desert are ancient and attractive. Mirage is manifested briefly in the desert. The basins between mountains are contiguous. There are a lot of plains and oases in Jiuquan. Streams flow through the whole city. The natural landscape is bizarre and splendid.
Jiuquan City is located in the fort of the northwest frontier. The Silk Road runs across here. It has a very long history. Jiuquan, Zhangye, Dunhuang and Wuwei were the four counties in Hexi region, which were established in the Western Han Dynasty. Since the Western Han Dynasty, Qiuquan has been the door and strategic passage from the central plains (comprising the middle and lower reaches of the Huanghe River) to the Western Regions and even the Central Asia and Europe.

Panthers president: Devils' fans forced team to stop selling plastic rats
Florida Panthers President and Chief Operating Officer Michael Yormark posted on Twitter today that the team will not be selling plastic rats anymore at the team store at BankAtlantic Center -- and blamed it on Devils' fans that attended Game 5.
"Panthers will not sell rats at Pantherland," Yourmark tweeted. "This is a result of visiting fans throwing rats on the ice during the game."
Some fans threw the rats, which were being sold for $5 apiece, on the ice after each goal during the Panthers' 3-0 Game 5 win over the Devils at BankAtlantic Center. They also threw rats on the ice after Panther goals in Games 1 and 2.
But, some rats were also thrown on the ice before a faceoff in the Florida zone late in Game 5, causing defenseman Marek Zidlicky to have to stickhandle around one at one point and briefly disrupting play. There were some claiming to be Devils' fans who posted on Twitter that they threw the rats, hoping the Panthers' would receive a delay of game penalty.
"Panthers will not tolerate any fan throwing items on the ice during our game," Yourmark also tweeted today. "If seen, they will be ejected from the arena immediately."
As he did after Saturday's game, Panthers coach Kevin Dineen blamed Devils' fans again today for the on-ice rat infestation at BankAtlantic Center.
"A lot of Devils' fans have been buying those rats and they throw them on the ice trying to get us that two-minute penalty," Dineen said. "It's unfortanate. I think it's a great part of our identity and something that our fans
thoroughly enjoy. In saying that, we don't want to put the team into a situation or the league in a situation where they have to make a decision during a game that could affect the actual outcome of the game. We love that enthusiasm, It just has to be directed in the right way."
Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur said he respected the tradition after Game 5, but also called the rat throwing "a pain."
When told today that the Panthers have decided to stop selling the rats, Brodeur said, "Seriously? It's about time."
Devils coach Pete DeBoer only said, "No comment."
Brodeur said one of the Devils' asked a referee what they can do about the rat throwing and he replied "we can call a delay of game penalty," but then admitted they would not call penalty.
"He can't do it," Brodeur said. "It's tough. But it breaks up the play a lot."
The rat-throwing tradition dates back to the Panthers' 1996 run to the Stanley Cup Finals. It stemmed from then Panthers' forward Scott Mellanby killing a rat in the home locker room at old Miami Arena by shooting it against the wall with his stick and then going out that night and scoring two goals to complete his "Rat Trick."
The Panthers brought back the tradition this year by selling the rats and encouraging fans to throw them on the ice at the end of wins. The team would collect the rats thrown on the ice and resell them.
The public address announcer repeatedly warned the fans during all three games at BankAtlantic Center that the team can be penalized and the fan can be ejected, but that hasn't appeared to work as a deterrent.
The Panthers claim they made the decision to stop selling the rats on their own and that the NHL did not step in, but it appears the league did put pressure on the team to stop selling the fake rodents.
"Commissioner Bettman may have made a phone call in the last day or two about ways that we can make sure the flow of play continues until the final whistle of the game," Dineen said. "Probalby the first step was to stop the
selling of the rats in our building."

Here's a great photo that we found on Park View DC. Of course it wasn't called Georgia Avenue then, so read up on the history of the road too.

Dissecting Nikkor 35 - 80 mm zoom lens
I have old Nikon cameras and lenses, such as F 401x, F 60, F 800, Nikkor 24 mm, 35 - 80 zoom, 75 - 300 zoom and whci were good for film photography I used them for last 25 years but now there is no proper sale value, I have recovered the amount I had spent on these units, and these are not much of use with new DSLRs, so I started dissecting these units to know the inside story of these units. this is first video clip of Dissecting Nikkor 35 - 80 mm zoom lens. I have learnt lot to record the dissecting process, soon I will be dissecting 24 mm lens.
this the link of my video clip on YouTube

Peach and mango mash
Peach and mango mash
A delicious tropical treat babies, bigger kids and the biggest kids (mums and dads!) will all enjoy. Peaches and mango are both high in fibre, making them great for adding to thick cereals or as a stand-alone treat to get things moving if baby is constipated.
- 1 peach
- 1 mango
- Mangoes are tropical fruits and therefore not ideal for babies younger than six months, but eight months old is ideal. Introduce it alone for four days to ensure there are no reactions before mixing with other fruits or foods.
- Mangoes can sometimes cause mild allergic reactions - check your baby for rash around the mouth area and his or her bottom after it passes through.
- Can be frozen for up to six weeks. If you've used frozen mango or peaches, do not refreeze.
- This recipe was created by Belinda Graham for Kidspot.
