University of Chicago Law School occupies a unique
niche among this country�??s premier law schools. Located on a residential campus
in one of America�??s great
cities, Chicago
offers a rigorous professional education that blends the study of law with the
humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences. Students, faculty
and staff form a small, tightly-knit community devoted to the life of the mind.
Learning is participatory. Chicago
does not seek to impose a single viewpoint or style of thought on its students.
Instead, faculty expose students to contrasting views,
confident in their abilities to choose their own paths.
History of
The Law
The University of Chicago, one of the youngest of the
major American universities, was granted its charter in 1890 and opened its
doors for classes in October 1892. The generosity of its founding donors, led
by John D. Rockefeller, enabled the first president of the University, William
Rainey Harper, to realize his bold ideas and extraordinary standards in the
creation of a new university. Harper insisted that the new institution must be
a true university, with a strong emphasis on both education and scholarship.
The Law School,
part of Harper�??s original plan but delayed in fulfillment until 1902, was a product
of an innovative spirit and a devotion to intellectual inquiry. The objective,
in the view of Harper and faculty members associated with him in the project,
was to create a new kind of law school, professional in its purpose, but with a
broader outlook than was then prevalent in the leading American law schools.
The aspirations of the new school were set by Harper�??s conception of legal
education in a university setting: education in law 9 implies a scientific knowledge
of law and of legal and juristic methods. These are the crystallization of ages
of human progress. They cannot be understood in their entirety without a clear
comprehension of the historic forces of which they are the product, and of the
social environment with which they are in living contact. A scientific study of
law involves the related sciences of history, economics, philosophy
- the whole field of man as social being.
animating philosophy has resulted in the Law School
playing a leading role in both legal education and legal scholarship since its
founding. Chicago
was pivotal in almost all of the innovations made in legal education during the
last century: the recognition of administrative law, legislation and
comparative law as legitimate fields of legal study; the introduction of other
disciplines into the law school curriculum and the appointment of faculty
outside the law; the extension of the field of legal research from concern with
the rules of the law to empirically oriented investigations of the legal
system; and the broadening of the curriculum to include clinical as well as
academic offerings.
at The Law
Chicago aims to train well-rounded, critical
and socially conscious thinkers and doers. The cornerstones that provide the
foundation for Chicago�??s
educational mission are: the life of the mind, participatory learning,
interdisciplinary inquiry and an education for generalists. What sets Chicago apart from other
law schools is its unabashed enthusiasm for the life of the mind - the
conviction that ideas matter, that they are worth discussing and that legal
education should devote itself to learning for learning�??s sake.
the law at Chicago
therefore is a passionate - even intense - venture between and among faculty
and students. It begins in the classroom where students share the stage with
the professor. The professor does not lecture, but instead engages the group in
a dialogue. Known as the Socratic Method, this dialogue presents students with
questions about thorny legal concepts and principles. Energized by this
dialogue within the classroom, students seek opportunities outside the
classroom for further conversation and learning in one of Chicago�??s
clinical programs, with one of Chicago�??s three
student-edited journals, or in one of Chicago�??s
many extracurricular offerings.
Honoring Chicago�??s
history and commitment to interdisciplinary inquiry, faculty draw students�??
attention to insights from the social sciences, the humanities, and the natural
sciences beginning on the first day of class. Chicago�??s unique first year required course,
9 Elements of the Law, 9 introduces students to the law as an interdisciplinary
field and gives students the tools to continue the interdisciplinary inquiry
throughout their legal education.
it is currently in vogue for law schools to promote 9 specialties 9 and Chicago could credibly claim more than 15 areas with a depth
of curriculum warranting a 9 specialty 9 label, Chicago remains committed
to legal education as an education for generalists. Emphasizing the acquisition
of broad and basic knowledge of law, an understanding of the functioning of the
legal system, and the development of analytic abilities of the highest order, a
Chicago legal education
prepares students for any professional role they might choose-legal practice or
legal education, entrepreneurial ventures, corporations, government, or
non-profit organizations.
at The Law
professor at Chicago
is a distinguished scholar in addition to being a dedicated teacher. Recognized
as the most productive and influential faculty of any law school, Chicago�??s academic faculty
is a group of about 40 professors engaged in research and writing on the most important
topics of the day. The clinical faculty of about 8-10 pursue
a specialized niche of legal scholarship by engaging in ground-breaking
advocacy efforts. The brief biographies of the faculty below provide an
introduction to their individual areas of expertise.

The "Big Brother 16" paid feeds went live directly following the West Coast second night premiere and fans did not have to wait long for crazy things to start happening. Most noticeably was that Caleb, who won the second Head of Household, was strangely quiet and isolated from the other 15 houseguests.
The new twist this season is that there will be two Heads of Households and four nominees for eviction. It took some time, but on June 26 at 10 pm PT, June 27 at 1 am ET, live feed subscribers found out that Paola, Victoria, Brittany and Donny are the four nominees for the first round of "Big Brother 16" evictions. Frankie nominated Brittany and Victoria, Caleb nominated Donny and Paola. Caleb seems strangely isolated from the group, spending a lot of time in his Head of Household room watching the other houseguests on the spy camera. Later on Devin spends some time in Caleb's HoH room, arousing suspicion from the other Head of Household, Frankie.
Shortly after the live feeds came up Frankie wished his sister "Ari" a 21st birthday. He did not refer to her as Ariana and subscribers do not yet know if his Head of Household basket included photos of her. They also do not know if the houseguests know his sister is Ariana Grande, a famous singer and actress.
A few of the houseguests are already talking about eating slop which means the Have Not competition has already been held. Cody, sitting in the Ice Room, also known as the Have Not Room, is complaining about being too hot. Zach is also in the room and subscribers to the "Big Brother 16" live feeds discover that he volunteered to be a Have Not. Have Nots are allowed to have milk and protein powder in addition to the notorious "Big Brother" slop.
There are many alliances already going on in the "Big Brother 16" house. The houseguests have all been living in the house since Saturday, June 21 and there has been a lot of time for them to get to know each other and form alliances before the live feeds began for subscribers. There are also a lot of other crazy things going on in the house, including Joey running around topless and Hayden strolling around naked and wearing one of his beach hats.
The next episode of "Big Brother 16" will air on Sunday, June 29 and that is when fans will see the actual nomination ceremony and Have Not competition. It seems that the first ever Battle of the Block will be held today, Friday, June 27 which means the Power of Veto competition will take place on Saturday, June 28. It is uncertain if fans will see the results of the PoV competition on Sunday or Wednesday, July 2. The first "Big Brother 16" live eviction will take place on Thursday, July 4 at 9 p.m. on CBS.

Fencing can be hard work on parts of the Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia, where the ground can be as hard as rock and sometimes rugged terrain means a tractor just isn't an option.
While timber posts have been traditional in this part of South Australia, contractor Jon Weise has been a long time user of steel and believes it makes his jobs faster and gives better results for his customers.
Jon has operated his fencing and revegetation contracting business in the region for thirty years, and has experienced more than his fair share of complicated and back breaking fencing jobs.
"We do a lot of jobs in rough, steep country, and when I want to a job done quickly and often with only one extra man, it takes some planning ahead and quality gear," said Jon.
"I think plenty of people in this area still use timber posts because they think they're stronger.
But there are so many advantages in steel these days - not only are they actually stronger and less labour intensive to use, they last longer and are fire resistant.
"I have seen so many steel posts completely rusted out by the salt air, but the hot dipped galvanized GalStar steel posts are still standing," said Jon.
Recently Jon took on a particularly challenging job in the rugged Sellicks Beach area.
"We needed to fence some particularly rugged country where there was a drop off of 20m in places and the ground was as hard as rock. I couldn't get a tractor in to drive the posts and in some places I couldn't even get a vehicle up to where we were working," said Jon.
"In this case I decided to go with an all steel fencing system to save time and expense.I used the Waratah GalStar Extreme steel posts for most of the fence, with GalStar MaxY® posts (the larger profile GalStar post) every six metres for extra strength combined with Stocklock Longlife mesh and topped with two Longlife Blue barb wires."
"Because of the terrain, this fence had to actually curve, so we used the stronger GalStar MaxY® posts every second post on the bends to act as strainers. Where we could use regular strainer posts, we used Waratah Ezyslots with Adjusta Stays," said Jon.
"I find the Stocklock Longlife mesh stays tighter than plain wire - it's more stock proof and also does a good job deterring the kangaroos.
We use it on ninety percent of our jobs," he added.
"The ground up there is like rock, so we purchased a Waratah Thumpa® pneumatic post driver for the job and haven't looked back since!" said Jon.
"It drove the posts in with ease - I was able to run the lead for the Thumpa® from the vehicle to drive the posts in the really inaccessible spots.
"Normally a job like this would be done completely by hand, take weeks and cost the customer thousands of dollars. I think I would still be there! Waratah gave us a demonstration on how to use their wide range of fencing products, but it was really simple to pick up."
"I have been really pleased with the Waratah posts and wire on this job, but we have been long time users - I just can't get the consistency or the quality anywhere else. I have been fencing for a long time and am always looking for ways to get a job done right the first time," said Jon.
For information about effective fencing design and materials, contact your local Waratah representative on 13 10 80 or go to the website www.onesteelwaratah.com.au.

The White House Friday hit back at Republican claims that a long-delayed overhaul of America's immigration system is stalled because President Barack Obama cannot be trusted to carry it out.
Republican House Speaker John Boehner Thursday poured cold water on hopes an immigration bill could finally pass this year, saying his restive conservative caucus did not have confidence the president would implement any legislation.
But the White House said such an accusation was simply a cover for Boehner's inability to corral his members behind a push for immigration reform that Republican leaders see as vital to repairing ties with increasingly important Hispanic voters.
"If it were an issue of trust, why did Republicans block immigration reform in 2006 when the occupant of the White House was Republican president George W. Bush?" Obama's spokesman Jay Carney asked reporters aboard Air Force One.
"Was it because they didn't trust him?
"I think no -- I think the issue is because of the well-known and documented challenges dealing with this issue presents the Republican Party."
Boehner said Thursday the president's vow to go around Congress and use executive powers to implement his political program if lawmakers refuse to cooperate with him had harmed trust in the White House.
Republicans also argue that adjustments the president made to his signature health care law raise doubts over whether he could be trusted to properly carry out the requirements of an immigration reform bill.
The White House counters, however, that the president had done more to enforce America's southern borders -- the source of most illegal immigration -- than any previous US leader.
Obama, seeking a genuine second-term legacy achievement, strongly supports the Senate bill to reform immigration that passed last year, which offers a path to eventual citizenship for 11 million illegal immigrants.
The bill also includes tighter border monitoring, an overhauled work visa program and other key reforms.
Obama has been careful not to rule out less sweeping House Republican plans, and has even signalled a willingness to negotiate on his core principle of a path to citizenship.
But several observers believe that passing an immigration bill could be tough in this mid-term congressional election year.
Many conservative lawmakers view the idea of a path to citizenship as tantamount to amnesty -- and fear a backlash from their own Republican grass roots on the issue.
Republican Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell dealt a blow to hopes of immigration reform earlier this week when he also cast doubt on 2014 prospects.
But the White House said it remains "optimistic" for progress, as did Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson.
"I don't have a crystal ball.... I hope it will happen in 2014," said Johnson in his first major speech since taking office in December.
"There's an emerging, evolving realization that this shouldn't be politics but that this is a problem that needs to be fixed," he said, explaining it would be better from a security perspective if the immigrants "come out of the shadows," pay taxes and undergo background checks.

When the others offer a bigger sensor like the Rx-100 with a focal relatively similar (ok 1.8 only in wide, but it's a ZEISS!) at minor prize, the Canon remains a step (or two thinking to the 20mp vs the 12mp) back within the sony.
Is this why instead the G13 or the G14, they've presented today directly the G15?
I'm going to amazon to order mine Rx100...

For those poor souls who simply can't do without their daily dose of dirt, I've got a story that might just hit the spot.
In 1995, I was involved in the management of Robert "Preacher Man" Daniels, the former WBA cruiserweight champion, who at the time had climbed up into the top five in both the WBC and WBA. In the WBO we were #2 or #3 in the ratings (honestly, I forgot which), although we never really seriously considered fighting for that title.
One day my partner, Mike Frost, called me to relate an interesting piece of news. He had been contacted - repeatedly - by a gentleman from Miami named Ricardo Rizzo, who Frost says identified himself as "someone who could help Robert Daniels get a title shot". Rizzo must have spoken very enthusiastically in his pitch; he had my partner halfway convinced he could move mountains for our fighter. But still, Mike wasn't altogether sure what this guy's role was, and frankly, neither did I. In fact, the impression I came away with when Frost told me about him was that maybe this guy wanted to promote some shows.
We already had a promotional relationship with someone at the time, but I figured it didn't cost anything to listen, so when my partner asked me if I wanted to sit down and find out what this fellow had on his mind, we arranged for a meeting at the Tropical Park Gym in Miami, which was where Daniels was training.
To say the least, Rizzo was not what one would call a polished salesman. You could tell he was a little unsure about making his presentation, because he started beating around the bush, to the point where I was actually getting bored. And to be perfectly honest, after sitting there for what seemed to be at least five minutes, I still didn't know what he was trying to say.
Then, he basically came out with it - he told us that Daniels, ranked where he was, was not going to get a shot at the WBO cruiserweight title. But, if he were the number one contender, he would be in line for a mandatory opportunity. And he (Rizzo) was the guy who could make that mandatory shot happen - quickly. He explained that the WBO convention was upcoming, and though we didn't have to actually GO to this convention, all we had to do was come up with a "donation" to the organization, and he could virtually guarantee it would make our man the top cruiserweight contender. Such a donation would be made out to the WBO, and he - Ricardo Rizzo - would carry it to the convention on our behalf. I thought that was awfully nice of him.
Then he gave us his card.
It turns out he was a WBO official.
So how much was the donation he was looking for?
"Ten thousand dollars."
For a split second, I was in a little bit of shock, not because we had been solicited in this way, but because it was done in a small office, with several other people in the room, including Daniels, his trainer, the guy who was running the gym, and a couple of strangers who I didn't even know. I figured if this guy was trying to peddle something shady, the least he could do was create more of a "cloak-and-dagger" effect.
Well, I started to get up out of my seat to leave, but I thought about it again, and decided I wanted to hear the entire story. So I asked Rizzo, "What's this donation for?"
"Pens and pencils for our members at the convention."
Upon further inquiry, I was assured that I had heard him correctly - PENS AND PENCILS.
Well, as they say, you could have knocked me over with a feather.
And I'm sitting there thinking - this guy couldn't come up with anything more creative than THAT? I had to start laughing. My partner started laughing. Then the whole room started laughing.
But this guy was NOT laughing. He was now working us even harder, like a used car salesman watching a prospect slip away. And it was clear he didn't want to walk out of that office with "no" for an answer. Almost immediately, his request dropped from $10,000 to $5000, and he told us if we "donated" that much he'd see what he could do, while at the same time explaining that some of the other managers of cruiserweight contenders were giving that much, or more.
"Everybody does it this way," is what Frost remembers him saying.
Well, we turned him down, as politely as we possibly could, and thanked him for his time.
The funniest part of the whole thing was that this guy would assume we even had $5000 to throw at him. I can't remember us being flush with cash at the time.
The scary part is that, had we indeed had that kind of money to toss around at the drop of a hat, I wonder if we would have seriously considered giving in to temptation, considering this is the way the game is played a good deal of the time.
In retrospect, I think not.
We rationalized it this way - even if we had given Rizzo the money, and gotten the title shot, I couldn't see the move being that profitable. After all, I had heard about some of the purses for WBO title fights, and I figured $20,000 would be a lot of money for a fight like that. If we were getting 25% as the manager's share, that kind of purse would return $5000 to us - a financial wash at best - and we'd no doubt have to go overseas, only to get robbed of a decision somewhere. And to be honest, the WBO championship was so unimportant to us, I don't think I even paid attention to who the champion was at the time.
As it was, on the ride home, we had a few more laughs - Frost and I mused about whether Mr. Rizzo would have given us a receipt for the "donation", and if so, what in the world it would possibly have said.
Then our thoughts turned to what might have happened had we gotten the same proposition we'd just heard, at the same price, for a shot at the WBC, WBA, or IBF title.
I would have done the math, for sure, but I just couldn't find a pen.
Or a pencil, for that matter.
(NOTE: I did keep Rizzo's business card as a memento of the occasion, and you can see it below. We "whited out" the phone numbers.)

Based on Vhong Navarro's official statement on Buzz Ng Bayan with host Boy Abunda this afternoon, Jan. 26, 2014 (Philippine time), he was framed up by Denise Millet Cornejo and mauled by Cedric Lee and his men in the morning of Jan. 23 at The Fort in Taguig City.
Netizens got shocked when they heard Vhong's statement earlier this afternoon. All of them are crying for justice for the It's Showtime host, and if you will ask the opinion of Ms. Karen Davila, one of the ace TV anchors of ABS-CBN, a warrant of arrest should be issued against these people immediately.
"A warrant of arrest should be issued against these men who mauled Vhong Navarro now," Karen tweeted earlier this afternoon while watching Buzz Ng Bayan. Just minutes after she tweeted her feelings, Karen received criticism. Based on a tweet of Crisanto M. Sio, Karen should hear the other side of the story before she encourage the court to release a warrant of arrest.
"You are so biased. Did you hear Denise's side and the Cedric Lee's team as well?" Crisanto commented. And speaking of Denise Millet Cornejo and Cedric Lee, they became hot trending topics on Twitter this afternoon, a few minutes after Vhong Navarro's revelation. Allegedly, Denise is a grand daughter of a GMA-7 executive while Cedric Lee is the rumored ex-boyfriend of Ms. Vina Morales.

Downsizing photos and sharpening
I learned how to downsize a photo in my PP software (PSPx5) to comply with the DPReview upload requirements. But my software asks how much sharpening I want when downsizing. I chose 85%. Should I choose 100%? What do you more experienced people choose & why? Is there a rule of thumb for sharpening photos when downsizing?

We thought we were big fans of The Wizard of Oz, but the mammoth new Wizard of Oz 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition (say that in one breath) on Blu-ray ($52) really turned the fandom up a few notches. With a sparkling, newly remastered print from Warner Brothers that surpasses even the one from 2005, the movie probably hasn't looked this good in 70 years. And the flying monkeys have definitely never looked scarier and more disturbing. The box set is packed with special features, documentaries, and collectible items, but the best part: the sing-along soundtrack! Just try not to alarm the neighbors. No, wait, invite them over! (Check out where it all started. It's called the original book. Shh.)

"Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent."
Thursday, January 27, 2011
Feeling Alone.
I have been feeling very 'lonely' lately… due to a lot of things... stress, personal issues, struggles with food. I fear that I am looking at my goal too far ahead and it's becoming overwhelming. It's going to be so hard to get there. I feel…. Defeated by myself….my bad thoughts. I have a hard time staying positive with myself. I know I am doing well… I work hard at the gym 6 days a week. I am eating better now than I have in my entire life. It's so hard though. I struggled to motivate myself to get out of bed this morning. It's my fault. I should have gone to bed earlier. It's really hard doing this on my own. Completely changing the way you have thought and been taught about food your entire life is a difficult thing to do. It's confusing, but it makes sense once you 'get' it and it 'clicks' in. IDK. I should be focusing on the small victories instead of obsessing about the goal. I went to a PR party last night… and I didn't have even one of the unhealthy snacks that were available…. Chips, Pretzels, COOKIES, Pop… I passed on all of them. I drank my water and when I left I ate my Clementine orange instead…. That's a small victory… right? Let me think of some more positives instead of negatives…. I haven't missed one day at the gym in 3 weeks… that's pretty good... especially when every other day I'm doing a fitness competition routine which kicks my ass…lol. I looked in the mirror and noticed myself that I appear slimmer… which was kinda cool. My boss also noticed and mentioned it… which I thought was great because a lot of people won't. They won't say 'hey, you look slimmer – good job" they just keep it to themselves… like they're afraid to say it... because maybe, just maybe it will boost your confidence or something – god forbid. LOL. -especially some of the people closest to you. It's always a random person or an acquaintance who is commending you on a job well done… not the people who it would mean the most coming from – idk.. and not that it doesn't mean a lot coming from anybody.. it DOES and it is appreciated… but it's a little different coming from somebody who knows you really well. Cye's supportive though – which I am very thankful for… but he sees my struggle on a day to day basis. He sees how much I struggle and how hard I am working... and how badly I want this. But he's been coming to the gym with me a little less every week… and that makes me scared. I am scared I won't be able to do this alone... well… I guess I have though…. I just think it's my negative thoughts getting the best of me. The best part of going to the gym though is – the energy. It's amazing. I feel so…. PUMPED. It truly is a great feeling. The soreness of the muscles feels pretty dang good too… it's how I know I'm doing well – got in a great workout – pushed myself… SO… this post was kind of… positive and negative… better than all negative I imagine. Love this quote..
"Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent."
This is exactly how I am feeling right now. I am feeling defeated, but I know it will go away and is only permanent if I quit... and I'm not quitting
252 days until I leave for my wedding. =o]

Wow you sound like aside from the negative thoughts you are doing awesome. Going to the gym every day for 3 weeks, eating healthier, not splurging at that PR party, that takes a lot of strenght and you obviously have it. When you start thinking about the negative try and turn it in to a positive, I know it is sometimes easier said then done but you can do it. Your journey has just begun and I believe you can do this. I mean look at all you are doing already, you said yourself you look in a mirror and you look slimmer and your boss is telling you that you look slimmer. That is awesome right there, you are obviously doing the right thing. I have those negative feelings myself a lot too and I just try to shake them out of my head or do something to turn it in to a positive. You can do it!!!!!!!!

J.Crew, master of preppy, has brought us a whole new level of trendiness in combining three of the hot-right-now looks: stripes, neon and colorblocking. You might think that these bold, geometric styles would clash, but the resulting Colorblock Stripe Boatneck Tee ($45) is hip and effortless, just how we always try to look.

Scouting Report
On his style of play:
I think I'm just good with the puck. I have good vision. I have good puck possession and I'm not the greatest skater, but I have good edges and I'm kind of a tougher guy to knock off the puck. I like to work hard and just get a lot of points, obviously, like any other player. I like to get in the areas where you can score and I like to put the puck in the net.
On patterning his game:
I have not really patterned myself after anybody, but I hear I play like Dany Heatley. That's a real honor. He's a great player, but I find that I really like to pass the puck a little bit more. I know he's more of a pure goal scorer, but I would love to pattern my play and score a lot of goals like he does.
On the moment that gets him into the game:
You know what, it's kind of hard. I know that you've got to be focused right before the game, but I know if the other team just gets the first goal, it gives me the extra push to work harder and go harder to the net or something like that. So I think it's when the other team kind of gets the goal or when you tie it up and they get another goal, it's just something like a goal that kind of puts me more in the game.
On becoming a hockey player:
Well, my parents kind of put me in the game when I was around three years old. They said I was just rollerblading around the house on the four wheels and the roller blades. I started skating when I was three years old and ever since then, I've just been playing and I've been playing a lot of hockey. My parents were probably going to get me into hockey anyway, because my dad is a big hockey fan. I think they have got me in a little earlier than they expected.
On remembering when he first played the game:
Well, what I remember is being a young kid, those early morning practices on the weekend, those are always a killer, even as a young kid when you don't realize how early it is, but now thinking back on it, those early mornings, the 5, 6 o'clock practices, just thinking about it, I think I'll always remember that.
On the favorite NHL team in the Toffoli household:
Well, my dad is a huge Leafs fan and my mom is a Senators fan. I have the best of both worlds, I grew up in Toronto, watch the Leafs all the time and now I'm playing in Ottawa, so I get to a lot of the Sens games. It's a lot of fun and it's good going back home and watching the Leafs and Sens play because my parents always get into a little argument.
On the biggest influence on his career:
Oh, it's my parents, for sure. They were always with me by my side the entire time. Even through the hard times when I thought I didn't want to play hockey because it was too hard, they just kept pushing at me. Even in minor Midget, my coach, Dan Cameron, a great guy and fun guy to be around and great coach, he taught me a lot about the game.
On the tough times in his career:
At the beginning of this year, for sure, was a real tough time. I didn't have a point in ten games. And people were starting to doubt me and my parents, they kind of just told me, relax and you know, just have fun out there. So I kind of took their advice and I talked to my agent a little bit and they just told me I've got to relax and just shoot the puck more and just put the puck on the net and keep working, because you know, the bounces were eventually going to come my way. I just listened to them and just started having fun out there and it's been a success so far for me this year.
On playing for the Toronto Junior Canadiens:
It was just awesome. I get goosebumps just thinking about how amazing our team was. I mean, all of those players are playing hockey now. A bunch are playing in the OHL, but my line was John McFarland and Chase Balisy. They are great players and both great individuals, and I still talk to them.
n his most memorable moment with the Junior Canadiens:
Oh, I would say the OHL Cup for sure. I know the year before that, we went undefeated that season in the minor Midget year. We lost a few games and people kind of doubted us and they were saying that we were not the team that we were supposed to be in, all that stuff. But whole way our Coach Dan Cameron just said: Win the OHL Cup, our stock will go up; we will get drafted higher if we win the OHL Cup. We went to work for that and you know, that game, I think Johnny scored three goals and you know, I think he scored his 100th goal that game and it was an empty net. I always remember, it was 2 on 0 in the empty net and I gave it to him for the 100th goal. I remember that and he'll remember that for a long time.
On his most memorable moment in his career so far:
I would say playing for Team Canada, just throwing on the Canadian jersey and representing Canada is a great honor. But for winning that gold medal, it was a long, long trip. We were there for a month and I know I missed my friends, I missed my family. But the whole time there, we were one family, we were a team with 22 guys.
We just had a lot of fun and worked with what we had. You know, we had a few ups and downs when we were over there but we battled through it and we won the gold medal.
On his personality off the ice:
You know, I don't like to do too much. I'm kind of a laid back guy, but I like my book here and there, and I like watching a lot of movies. So you know, you'll just find me in my room or just in the living room watching some TV.

At first there was Ebay. Then Craig's List came along and re-created classified ads. Now, the Internet marketing software at the Internet Time Machine has spotted another niche revolution going on and it is wide open to all marketers and product creators.
The marketing alert came in on the morning of January 5, 2011. The phrase moving up the charts had gone from #5,000 to #145 in a matter of months. The phrase is "storage facility auctions". This sudden surge usually corresponds with a major press or public display like Oprah talking about it, or Obama buying one. This time the surge is related to a TV show on Spike TV called "Auctions Hunters". This niche show, as I mention in the video, is like watching a car accident. Once you see 5 minutes, you are hooked. It is the appeal of "lost treasure" or "one man's trash is another man's treasure".
Currently this one phrase has 50,000 searches per month and it can build a list of people who are looking to make money, a very good thing for future products related to Internet marketing.
The niche revolves around the idea that once a client stops paying his or her self storage bill, a process begins to take possession of the unit. If the owner doesn't come forward at some point, it is fair game to be auctioned off to the public. This is where the show picks up. The bidding is done in front of the unit and it is an old fashion auction. You are allowed to look in the unit, but you can't go it or touch anything. So if there are blankets or sheets covering things, you need to do your best guess work on what the unit contains and what it could be worth.
The need for information around this niche product is huge right now. Demand is growing, and it is like having the first Ebay guide out there. This is Ebay for the neighborhood. Thousands of weekend antique shoppers and scavenger hunters are lining up for this niche and they need help in how for a plan of attack. Some suggestions are a guide on how to find the best auctions. A guide on how to judge value based on what you can see in the unit or maybe tip sheet on bidding tips would be a great starter product.
This is a fantastic idea and alert. If you hit the Facebook like button above you will letting other Internet Time Machine members on Facebook know you like it and maybe there is a JV or teaming up option for people to work together. Hit the Facebook like button if you think this is a good niche and let's see how many people might want to work on something together.
As a bonus : We control the domain "selfstorageauctiontips.com .net. info". We will give them away free to the person that does a Facebook post about The Internet Time Machine and what they would do with this niche.
1. Go to http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/The-Internet-Time-Machine-Idea-Exchange/217875823940 and become a fan
2. Write up what you are going to do in this niche and tag @theinternettimemachineideaexhange in your post so it shows up on our wall. Best idea wins the URLs...

Interview, Excerpt
Format: eBook
Maureen O'Reilly and her younger sister flee Ireland in hope of claiming the life promised to their father over twenty years before. After surviving the rigors of Ellis Island, Maureen learns that their benefactor, Colonel Wakefield, has died. His family, refusing to own his Civil War debt, casts her out. Alone, impoverished, and in danger of deportation, Maureen connives to obtain employment in a prominent department store. But she soon discovers that the elegant facade hides a secret that threatens every vulnerable woman in the city
Michael Dunnagan survived the sinking of the Titanic, thanks to the courage of Owen Allen, and promised to help Owen's family, his younger sister, Annie, in England and the rest of the family living in New Jersey, since Owen could not. Michael started to communicate to Annie through letters, but her anger over her brother's death was steeped in each of her responses. Eventually, Annie begins to lay aside her anger and their letters become friendlier. Michael saves up enough money to bring Annie to America just as WWI breaks out in Europe...then all communication with Annie ceases!
When his father joins the Union Army, 17-year-old Robert Glover reluctantly vows not to enlist until he turns 18. But when his cousin Emily writes seeking help for Uncle Albert---imprisoned at Fort Delaware---he unwittingly becomes embroiled in a Confederate escape plan! Can Robert find answers on matters of family, faith, and freedom for all?
Formats: eBook, William Henry is a Fine Name/I Have Seen Him in the Watchfires Set - eBook, William Henry is a Fine Name/I Have Seen Him in the Watchfires
Coming of age is never easy, but in the pre-Civil War South, it's especially confusing. Thirteen-year-old Robert must grapple with his father's involvement with the Underground Railroad, his mother's anti-abolitionism, and the fact that his own best friend---an African American---is subject to the effects of slavery. Can he take a stand for justice?

Miles Davis: Move
Miles Davis Nonet
Birth of the Cool (Capitol Jazz RVG Edition 30117)
Miles Davis (trumpet), Kai Winding (trombone), Lee Konitz (alto sax), Gerry Mulligan (baritone sax), Max Roach (drums),
Addison "Junior" Collins (French horn), Bill Barber (tuba), Al Haig (piano), Joe Shulman (bass).
Composed by Denzil Best. Arranged by John Lewis.
Recorded: New York, January 21, 1949
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
Written by drummer Denzil Best, this is one of the Birth of the Cool arrangements that could be naturally opened up for solos, and Miles, Konitz and Roach deliver. Arranger John Lewis writes driving musical figures with economy of orchestration, and it says a great deal about Collins and Barber that they could play such exciting musical lines on instruments that "spoke" slowly – one of the challenges this ensemble had to rise above. That they did it so well is a testament to the excellence of these musicians.

Ahh, we love the sweet and simple look of this Lucky Brand Palma Lace Shift Dress ($99, on sale). We'll have to wear it very carefully though--meaning: always standing and refusing all offers of food and drink in colors other than white (which leaves...marshmallows?). Or we could live a little and risk a stain. This is, after all, why we've been generously tipping or dry cleaners for years, those lovely miracle workers!

SCOPE CAM: 400 Yard AR15 Target Shooting
March 28, 2010 | Videos | 25 Comments|
Shooting an AR15 using the scope cam; targets setup at approximately 410 yards. The camcorder is securely mounted to the stock of the rifle, just behind the charging handle. Shooting with this setup is quite a challenge, as I have to use the camcorder viewfinder for aiming. The viewfinder screen is roughly the size of 4 small postage stamps, and provides nowhere near the quality resolution that you experience with a decent scope. I'm so close to the viewfinder, I'm not even wearing my glasses. Rifle for the session is a Bushmaster Varminter in .223, topped off with a Leupold Mark III scope. The Remington 55 grain accutip is the load of choice.

An Introduction to Terengganu
One may think Terengganu is a quiet city as compared with Selangor and Kuala Lumpur with its bustling city centres and vibrant population but it only takes a bit of time and a sense of adventure and open-mindedness to discover the true uniqueness of Terengganu. Located on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, it is bordered by Kelantan in the northwest, Pahang in the southwest and in the east by the South China Sea. Some of the surrounding islands well known for its white sandy beaches and tranquil waters are Pulau Perhentian, Pulau Kapas and Pulau Redang, all of which have attracted a huge number of foreign tourists.
Terengganu has an area of 12,955 km² and its state capital is Kuala Terengganu. Its districts are Besut, Dungun, Hulu Terengganu, Kemamam, Kuala Terengganu, Marang and Setiu. For those who are familiar with Terengganu, one just has to mention this state and images of traditional kampung houses, authentic handicrafts, azure beaches and amazing local and cultural scenes come to mind.
It has a rich history dating back to the 6th century AD as recorded by Chinese merchants and sea men traveling through the South China Sea. It was under the Srivijaya occupation of the state that the practice of trade was most prominent. This was then followed by the Siamese and then the British rule. Terengganu was occupied by the Japanese in World War One. The British regained control over the state after that and finally, Terengganu became part of the Federation of Malaya in 1948 and a state of Malaysia after i... View more

Influence of cholinergic blockade on the development ...
|Influence of cholinergic blockade on the development of epinephrine-induced ventricular arrhythmias in halothane- and isoflurane-anesthetized dogs
|Kip A. Lemke, W. J. Tranquilli, J. C. Thurmon, G. J. Benson, W. A. Olson
|Veterinary Surgery
|Start page
|End page
|The arrhythmogenic effects of anaesthetic drugs were assessed using the arrhythmogenic dose of epinephrine (ADE) model. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of cholinergic blockade (CB) produced by glycopyrrolate (G) on ADE in 1.5 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) halothane (H)- and isoflurane (I)-anaesthetized dogs. Eight dogs (weighing between 12.5 and 21.5 kg) were randomly assigned to 4 treatment groups (H, HG, I and IG), each treatment replicated 3 times. Anaesthesia was induced and maintained with H (1.31%, end-tidal [ET]) or I (1.95%, ET) in oxygen. Ventilation was controlled (carbon dioxide [PCO2] 35 to 40 mmHg, ET). G was administered 10 minutes before ADE determination at a dose of 22 micro g/kg (11 micro g/kg, i.v., and 11 micro g/kg, i.m.). The ADE was determined by IV infusion of epinephrine at sequentially increasing rates of 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 micro g/kg/min; and defined as the total dose of epinephrine producing at least 4 ectopic ventricular contractions (EVCs) within 15 seconds during a 3-minute infusion and up to 1 minute after the end of the infusion. Total dose was calculated as the product of infusion rate and time to arrhythmia. Values are reported as means +or- standard error. The ADE ( micro g/kg) for H, HG, I and IG were 1.53 +or- 0.08, 3.37 +or- 0.46, 1.61 +or- 0.21 and >15.00, respectively. Heart rates (HRs) (beats/min) and systolic pressures (mmHg) at the time of arrhythmia formation for H, HG, I and IG were (60.3 +or- 4.0 and 142 +or- 7.6), (214.0 +or- 13.1 and 239.2 +or- 7.1), (62.9 +or- 4.5 and 151.9 +or- 6.3) and (226.3 +or- 6.1 and 323.5 +or- 3.4), respectively. The H and I ADE were not different. The GH ADE was significantly less than the IG ADE. The H and I ADE were significantly less than the HG and IG ADE. It is concluded that epinephrine infusion in halothane- and isoflurane-anaesthetized dogs: (1) two distinct mechanisms are responsible for the development of arrhythmias, (2) CB produced by G significantly increases ADE but is associated with higher rate pressure products (RPP) and myocardial work, and (3) ADE methodology could be improved by determining ADE with and without CB..

TC TO MARGARET A. CARLYLE; 6 July 1824; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18240706-TC-MAC-01; CL 3:103-107.
4. Myddelton Terrace, [Penton]ville, / —6th July 1824—
My dear Mother,
I suppose you are not expecting to hear from me so soon again, and still less to hear the news I have got to tell you. The last letter was dated from Kew Green; there will no more of mine be dated there: last time, I was complaining of the irresolute and foolish fluctuations of the Bullers; I shall never more have reason to complain of their proceedings, I am now free of them forever and a day. I mentioned the correspondence which had taken place between the "fair Titania" (as the Calcutta Newspapers called her) and myself on the subject of her hopeful son; and how it was arranged that we should live together till october, and then see about proceeding to Boulogne in France or else abandoning our present engagement altogether. The shifting and trotting about, which she managed with so total a disregard to my feelings, joined to the cold and selfish style of the Lady's general proceedings had a good deal disaffected me; and when in addition to all this I reflected that nothing permanent could result from my engagement with them; and considered the horrid weariness of living in seclusion from all sense and seriousness in the midst of sickness on my own part mingled with frivolity and heartless dissipation on theirs,— I had well nigh silently determined not to go to Boulogne, or even to stay with the people tho' they remained in England. My determination was called for sooner than I had anticipated. After a week spent at Kew, in the most entire tedium, by which my health had begun to deteriorate rapidly, but which I determined to undergo without repining till October, Mrs Buller writes me a letter signifying that they must know directly whether I could go to France with them or not; that if I could not the Boy might be sent to prepare for Cambridge, and that if I could, we must instantly decamp for Royston a place in Hertfordshire about fifty miles off! I replied that the expected period for deciding was not yet arrived, but that if they required an immediate decision of course there was nothing for it but to count on my declining the offer. Next day we met in Town by appointment; there seemed to be the best understanding in the world betwixt us; it was agreed that I should quit them—an arrangement not a little grievous to old Buller & his son, but nowise grievous to his wife, one of whose whims was Cambridge University; in which whim so long as she persists, she will be ready to stake her whole soul on the fulfilment of it. Buller offered me twenty-pounds for my trouble; with an excess of generosity, which I am not quite reconciled to since I thought of it maturely, I pronounced it to be too much, and accepted of ten. The old gentleman and I shook hands with dry eyes; Mrs B. gave me one of those "good mornings" with which fashionable people think it right to part with friends and foes alike; Charlie was in a passion of sadness and anger—to be forgotten utterly in three hours; and I went my way and they saw me no more. Such is my conclusion with the Bullers. I feel glad that I have done with them; their family was ruining my mind and body; I was selling the very quintessence of my spirit for two hundred pounds a year. Twelve months spent at Boulogne in the midst of drivelling and discomfort would have added little to my stock of cash, and fearfully diminished my remnant of spirits, health, and affection. The world must be fronted sometime; soon as good as syne [late]! Adieu therefore to ancient dames of quality, that flaunting, painting, patching, nervous, vapourish, jigging, skimming scolding race of mortals! Their clothes are silk, their manners courtly, their hearts are kipper. I have left the Bullers twelve months sooner than they would have parted with me had I liked: I am glad that we have parted in friendship, very glad that we are parted at all. She invited me to a rout (a grand fashionable affair) next night! I did not go a foot-length. I want to have no farther trade with her or hers—at least except in the way of cold civility; for as to what affection means, I do not believe there is one of them that even guesses what it means. Her sister indeed likes me, and I like her—but she is opposite as day from night.
Thus you see, my dear Mother, I am as it were once more upon the waters. I got my trunks hither last night—after having kept them just one week at Kew—and paid fourteen shillings for the trip to and fro—so much for having a spirited commander like Titania! I am settled with Irving who presses me to stay with him all winter! That I certainly will not do, tho' I honour the kindness that prompts even an invitation of that sort. Irving & I are grown very intimate again, and have had great talking-matches about many things. He speaks in glorious language of the wonderful things I am to accomplish here; but my own views are much more moderate.
Meanwhile my dear Mother let me assure you that I have not been so happy for a long while. I am at no loss for plans of proceeding, nor is the future overcast before me with any heavy clouds, that I should fret or fear. I am once more free; and I must be a weak genius indeed if I cannot find an honest living in the exercise of my faculties, independently of favour from any one.
My movements for a while must be rather desultory. My first is to the northward. Among the worthy persons whom I have met with here is a Mr Beddomes,1 a friend of Irvings, a graduate in medicine tho' his business is in chemical manufactories at Birmingham, where I understand he is rapidly realizing a fortune. This man one of the most sensible clear-headed persons I have ever met with seems also one of the kindest. After going about together for a day or two, talking about pictures, and stomach-disorders in the cure of which he is famous, and from which he once suffered four years of torment in person—what does the man do but propose that I should go up to Birmingham, and live a month with him that he might find out the make of me, and prescribe for my unfortunate inner man! This in a style of frankness which left me no doubt of its being really intended for use not show. I have consented to go with him; and we are to set out either together or not as I think proper in a few days. I understand he keeps horses &c, and is really the frank hospitable fellow he seems. Of his skill in medicine I augur favourably from his general talent, and from the utter contempt in which he holds all sorts of drugs as applied to persons in my situation. Regimen and exercise are his specifics assisted by as little gentlest medicine as possible. On the whole I think I never had such a chance for the recovery of health, and I am glad indeed that it has been put within reach of my acceptance. I intend to set off in about a week; there is a fine coach that starts from our very door and carries one up between 7 in the morning and seven at night—for one guinea. Beddomes a bachelor about 35 years of age determines that I shall live in his house and be always under his eye: he means to treat me with fish and wine and strong drink, and then with gruels and syllabubs, that he may see what it is that ails me. I am going to take books, and read and ride or stroll about Birmingham, and employ or amuse myself as seemeth best. Sometimes I think of beginning another translation, sometimes of setting about some original work. I am already acquainted with several literary people here, whose acquaintance would be a great comfort and some assistance to me in a case of that kind. Meantime I have set Procter (a poet of the place, whom Jack knows by the name of Barry Cornwall) to inquire among the Booksellers here and see whether any of them want such a thing as a translation from the German of any thing I should like; and I have written to Bide (Boyd) yesterday sounding him on the subject. I expect his answer in a week: and I care very little whether he deny me or not. For you must know I have resources in abundance independently of him. Meister, I understand, is doing very well; and I am not without some hopes of a second edition ere long. I rejoice more and more in the dexterity of my bargain. There was a review of Meister in Blackwood's Magazine: they speak very kindly of me as a translator, and call upon me to translate a multitude of other things which they name. In short, I am provided with abundant resources, and do not think there is any fear of me.
When I arrive in Birmingham, and sooner if any great delay occur, that is about ten days hence I will write to you again, and explain matters more minutely. I long earnestly to hear of you all; Jack's letter was a treat in itself, but it only increased my appetite for more. Let me still hope that you are all well! There is no earthly wish so near my heart. Jack tells me you are reading Meister: this surprises me; if I did not recollect your love for me, I should not be able to account for it. Schiller's Life is in part printed: I expect to see it wholly next month. I have still some thoughts of putting it forth as a book. But the bookseller lives at such a distance that I very seldom see him, indeed have only seen him once since I arrived. When I send you it, you will be better satisfied.
Now you must tell my dear Tongleg to write diligently, commanding Alick also to aid him. Did I not send them their fill of letters last week? I shall be obliged to be more brief in time to come, for this is among the last franks I shall get from Buller.
But, my dear Mother, are you well? I can only silently hope that you are; and earnestly conjure you to take care of your health as the most precious thing in your possession—precious not to yourself alone, but still more precious to me. Oh my dear M[other,] what would become of us, if we had to part forever? But we a[re] in the hands of a good Father; surely He will have mercy on his creatures.— Remember me to my good Mag: her figure that night before I went away is yet present to me. Tell her how much I think of her conduct and character and what affection I bear her. Mary also! poor Mall, she is a true-hearted Ettercap [spider or ant: little creature] of a body—and I like her wholly. Are Jane and Jenny still studying with Mister Rae? Tell them to be diligent while time is. My kindest affection to my Father and the rest of my faithful brothers. Let me hear of them all, all! May God keep them and restore them all to me! With you of Mainhill—hearts so honest and so faithful, I am rich, betide what will. Adieu, my dear Mother! I am ever your affectionate Son,
