MEMBERS OF the Ontonagon Village Fire Department demonstrated how to extricate a victim from a wrecked vehicle at the 911 Camp
ONTONAGON - Fifth grade students from the Ontonagon and Ewen Trout Creek Schools Thursday learned about the many safety and protective programs available to them in the county.
It was the ninth annual 911 program coordinated by Sheriff Dale Rantala with the help of more than eight law enforcement and safety groups.
Fire departments, Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Conservation, search and rescue, ambulance, Upper Peninsula Power Company, and police officials guided the children through demonstrations of safety and rescue procedures and answered questions.
The Ontonagon Fire Department demonstrated how victims are extricated from wrecked cars. The cars were donated by Howie's Towing and hauled to the site by the Pestka Construction Company. Bill Johnson of the Ontonagon Fire Department and Emergency Services director, demonstrated to the children the proper use of a fire extinguisher.
One of the big attractions to the children was the large air-boat from the Great Lakes Indian Fish Wildlife Conservation Unit.
In addition there were electrical displays from UPPCO, a tour of SONCO Ambulance, demonstrations from the Porcupine Mountain Search and Rescue teams, and explanations from law enforcement officials. The event was coordinated in blocks so that small groups rotated from one demonstration to another with ample time for questions. The Aspirus Ontonagon Hospital provided food for the project.
Sheriff Rantala said the 911 camp was the brain child of the late Jackie Strauch and has been continued under the leadership of the Ontonagon County Sheriff's Department. "The chance for kids to see and meet the people who protect them and get answers to questions will take away some of the fear they may have," Rantala said. He explained that it will aid the kids to not be afraid to call for help when it is needed. He added that he had to thank all the parties who participated because without them the program would not be possible.

Yessiree, folks. Step right up and see America's greatest sharpshooter in the original 1946 Broadway version of "Annie Get Your Gun," now at Light Opera Works. The timeless music of Irving Berlin comes to life in this stellar production. With a full 28-piece orchestra conducted by Roger Bingaman, you'll be singing as you leave the theatre, humming such classics as "There's No Business Like Show Business," Anything You Can Do," and "Doin' What Comes Naturally."
Annie Get Your Gun tells the story of about Wild West star gunslinger Annie Oakley who finally learns "You Can't Get a Man with a Gun." Colette Todd, who also appeared in the company's production of "Man of La Mancha" as Aldonza and Nancy in "Oliver," is fabulous as Annie. Her over-the-top, powerful voice just takes the house down. James Rank as handsome Frank Butler has a gorgeous voice and charm to match. Jim Heatherly as Charlie Davenport is funny and boy, he can sing. But it's numbers like Tribal Dance and Show Business that really take your breath away, thanks to the prowess of ensemble member John Cardone.
Stage Director/Choreographer and Artistic Director Rudy Hogenmiller, who last appeared as the Emcee in the company's production of Cabaret, brings the show to life for classic musical lovers as well as a new generation of theatre-goers. Suitable for kids 8 and older.
"Annie Get Your Gun" will be performing at Cahn Auditorium, 600 Emerson, Evanston through December 31. For tickets, call 847.920.5360 or www.lightoperaworks.com.

Guest Blogger/Truffle Brownies
Hi Buttercream Bakehouse readers! I'm Gina from Kleinworth & Co. where I share favorite family recipes, projects with my kids, photography tips & a little bit of family life.
I'm so excited to be here today sharing a decadent little goodie that is always a hit.
I am one of those that likes a fudgy brownie. I know brownie lovers throughout the world usually fall in one of two camps- fudge like brownies or cake like brownies. I'm in the fudge camp- the gooey-er the better for me. AND when it comes to my treats – more is more for me as well. I like to push the envelope & top with a little extra to make it better. So this time I decided to take my favorite truffle recipe & top it on my brownies for an extra rich & yummy Truffle Brownies dessert.
I sent most of these to the firehouse with the hubs. His guys had them gone in record time.
Truffle Brownies
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp dutch process cocoa powder
Truffle Topping
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 pkg (8 ounces) cream cheese – room temperature
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a large bowl – whisk together the eggs & sugar
Add in flour & cocoa powder – whisk until mostly combined
In separate bowl combine butter & chocolate chips & microwave for 30-60 seconds until butter is melted.
Whisk butter & chocolate mixture until combined & smooth
Add to large bowl & mix well
Transfer to parchment lined 9×9 pan
Bake about 25 minutes or until the top is set & shiny
Remove & allow to cool while you make the truffle topping.
For the truffle topping-
Place your cream cheese in mixer bowl & beat until creamy
In double boiler- melt your chocolate chips
Slowly add your melted chocolate to your cream cheese & beat until completely combined- scrape down bowl frequently
Once thoroughly mixed- transfer to top of brownies & spread into an even layer

For some, Helena-West Helena City Council sessions have shed some light on current issues of the city. But for others they have become a disgrace to the citizens that that councilman and women represent. Last Tuesday night some concerned citizens requested the council to conduct themselves in a professional manner. Rev. Michael Jenkins, Bishop LeRoy Carter and Elijah Mondy, owner of KJIW radio station, addressed the council concerning their conduct and lack of team work in moving the city forward. Jenkins voiced his concern about the last three council sessions that left him upset and heartbroken as he witnessed the disgrace that was presented at the table. "What is the city council here for?" He asked. "Our problems are here and we should be working together to have a city we can live in." Jenkins said that he understands that each member of the council is not going to agree on everything but they should be able to disagree with love. "You were elected to work as a team," continued Jenkins. "We need to realize that not one of us is more important than the other." Jenkins stressed that there should be three things to consider before speaking, "Is it kind, is it the truth and is it necessary." Carter agreed stating that the council should have respect for one another because they are the leaders of the city and as adults they should represent the citizens as a whole regardless of personal agendas or animosity toward one another. "Before the cities of Helena West Helena consolidated, I offered to broadcast the city council sessions on the KJIW radio station airwaves so that the citizens could get a better look into what is really happening in our city," commented station owner Elijah Mondy. Mondy said the last city council meeting was a disgrace and disrespectful to the vision of transparent form of professional government. Mondy has offered broadcast time for a number of years free of charge – his way of making a contribution to the city. "My only stipulation was that the city would purchase the broadcasting equipment to make it possible and that a speaker system would be purchased so that many could hear the sessions," he said. At one point, Mondy said, the sessions were moments of airing out the city's dirt laundry. "What we need to do is clear up some of this dirty laundry that is broadcast to the public," commented Mondy. "Enough is enough, the last council session was a disgrace," Mondy continued. "I have gotten numerous complaints from the very citizens you serve and represent and it's time to clean up the 'stink' that is presented at this table that unfortunately reflects the lack of respect and the team effort that this city needs to move forward." Mondy asked the council for their help in cleaning up the airwaves and asked what they propose to do for their broadcast. "People all over the world are hearing the loss of the city," he said. "Many are leaving and all the hard work to try to promote the good in our community will fail if we don't come up with some type of solution tonight." Council member Don Etherly agreed that the council should be able to put on a smile and present themselves in a professional manner. However, he felt that there was some indifference to the presentation as it reflected a "blanket of blame" pointing fingers at the council as a whole. "I think that you need to speak to each of us individually and find out what drives us or causes us to say or do whatever we do," commented Etherly. "I can agree that there are some things that have come apart that need to be fixed. We need to be cordially civil to one another in government at this council because the solution has to come from this body." The council agreed that each member at the table should begin to police his or her behavior. Mondy suggested that the next time the conversation seems to get out of hand or too heated, call a recess so that the session can reconvene in a more civilized manner.

Yahoo have quite a number of government requests for data over the last six months, beating Apple, Microsoft and Facebook - a surprising statistic. Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer and Generan Counsel Ron Bell noted on Tumblr that Yahoo have received between 12,000 and 13,000 requests, "inclusive of criminal, Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), and other requests" between December 1, 2012 and May 31, 2013.
According to the Yahoo CEO and Bell, most of the requests relate to "fraud, homicides, kidnappings, and other criminal investigations." Yahoo aren't stating just how many FISA requests are in that figure due to their classified nature, but they "strongly urge(s) the federal government to reconsider its stance on this issue."

Rosie by theanimejumpWatch
©2014-2016 theanimejump
Rosie or ROSE has been a character loooooooooooooong time in the making.. I cant exactly remember when i first started drawing her, but she's pretty much stayed the same. I know its been over a decade with having her around in my thoughts, she's very dear to me because she is so different then my other characters. She usually disappears for years at a time, then pops in again to make sure i didn't forget our ties. sorry rosie X0
Seems like a really interesting character... Love how you drew her hair especially.
*also - im pretty sure i stole her legs from that Kill Bill chick, Uma. . . lol
Shankies! I get really upset about hair.... it usually ends up looking like retro sailor moon when she's 50miles away from camera............ lol. I try real hard to take tips from my favorite art (on hair and textures on the skin) from Trigun Maximum manga. Excellent thick lines that i drool over ........ *proceeds to drool* of course im not there yet- but awesome of you to pick up on those little things that i swear everyone usually over looks heh ^^
haha "retro sailor moon" thats not a bad thing btw. Sailor moon is coolness. (( did you hear about the new Sailor Moon Anime by chance? I'm not sure I'm into it, I love the look of the older one, but I'll def watch it when it comes out ))
Oh I definitely notice linework. I just may not always talk about that in my comments for artists. But I take lots of things into consideration when I examine a piece of artwork. Though I usually post my initial reaction because I feel it's better to give that sort of information out too. Like whatever goes through my head, or what feelings come to me first, I usually post that.
ANYWAY... lol using other mangas/anime as reference is GOOD. Idk why people look down on using references of other art. -.- Like to get to your ideal, you've got to practice drawing whatever you admire.
*nearly choked on gum* that icon is priceless! XDDD ok ok ok - lol. Rosie or ROSE stands for..........hmm, forget heh. (It'll come to me later) see those glowing marks on her knees and elbows - those be so she can fly around if need be. (but she doesn't know that in the beginning). I had done a comic of her AGES ago with her having young simple features and maybe that's why you don't recognize her. She comes across this boy passed out in the alley on her way back from work and takes him in. at first it's like 'woah, what an odd coincidence' that these 2 weirdos would meet ~ but he was actually on his way to her and whatever had happened, made him fall out ... yes, lol.


text: A good friend of mine turned me onto this photographers work. His name is Bae Bien-U and his images are for lack of a better word, stunning. He has a book published and I highly recommend if you like what you see that you pick up the book to add to your collection. Online images don't do his work justice, because the printing quality of the book is really wonderful; dark darks, beautiful desaturated colors, texture and sharp images. You can pick up the book at Amazon or your local bookstore. Enjoy.

Saturday night was a busy night in Dallas for concerts. There was the Neverset benefit show out at Trees. There was Kings of Rock out at Pizza Hut Park. But that didn't stop House of Blues from being completely sold out and a line wrapping not just around the building but through it. And who were all these people there to see? Why SLASH of course!
Originally there was set to be three bands, one being local boys Midnight Empire who had won a contest to open for SLASH. Sadly they figured out later that one of their band members was a Guitar Center employee and it disqualified them. A major sham, because Midnight Empire is great. Go see them if you get a chance.
Instead we got Foxy Shazam. I'll admit I never have quite gotten this band. I've only really heard the one song on the radio and wasn't a fan of it. I'm still not really a fan - it's just not my type of music. But there's no question that they put on an interesting show. Between a vocalist that can't seem to stay still to save his life and a keyboard player that seems to think his full size keyboard is really a keytar there's so much going on onstage that you're not sure where to look. Until the vocalist asks for a few cigarettes and has the lights turned down, lights up, and then eats them. Though I think the highlight for me was watching the keyboard player crowd surf - with his keyboard! Whatever my opinion the crowd loved them and I met at least one group of fans that had driven down from Oklahoma just for Foxy Shazam.
But in reality most everyone was there for Slash. Along for the ride was Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators - and what a ride it was. Between songs from his own album with various guest vocalists, to a few Velvet Revolver numbers like "Slither" and "Fall to Pieces", to Guns N' Roses hits such as "Nighttrain" and "Sweet Child O' Mine" it was a rocking set and the crowd was singing and cheering along. "Paradise City" wrapped up the night to huge applause. Slash is amazingly talented and still fantastic to watch and well worth the traveling and hours spent in line that was the story for many fans that night.

Laptop batteries for IBM, Toshiba, Dell, Compaq, HP, Sony, Apple and more
by Skeggzatori
Laptop batteries for IBM, Toshiba, Dell, Compaq, HP, Sony, Apple and more
Attentions Before Buying a Laptop Battery for Laptop batteries for IBM, Toshiba, Dell, Compaq, HP, Sony, Apple and more.
First of all, your biggest concern in purchasing a laptop battery will be to choose the battery that fits your computer.For this you will need to know the make and model number of your laptop; if you don't know this offhand or don't have the necessary paperwork, check the inside of your laptop's battery compartment while the computer is off and unplugged. There you should find the model number, along with some other information. You may also find the part number of your laptop battery, located on the casing of the battery itself.
Secondly, choose the right model number to fit your computer. There are several different kinds of laptop batteries; because the technologies of each are very different, a laptop must be designed specifically for the type of battery it uses. Most laptops are only designed to use one type of battery technology.
Regardless of which type you have, it's important to properly care for your laptop battery, in order to get as much life out of it as possible. "Conditioning," which means fully discharging and then fully charging the battery, should be done at least every few weeks, as it maintains the full capacity of the laptop battery. Some authorities claim that this is not necessary with Li-Ion batteries, while others maintain that it's a good idea to condition all laptop batteries regularly, rather than simply leaving them plugged into the wall at all times. Your laptop battery should never be stored in an area that drops below 50ºF (10ºC) or rises above 95ºF (35ºC); this means that your laptop should not be left in the car or in a storage area that is not climate controlled. Also, for extended storage of six months or more, the laptop battery should be discharged to 50% capacity and removed from the computer; a battery stored for an extended period of time at full capacity may lose the ability to charge fully, while a battery stored in a fully discharged state may never be able to charge again at all.
Finally, Set the market. When you visit the manufacturer's website, note the prices for the batteries. This will establish the high-end of what you might have to pay, and allow you to compare. Take note of the model numbers for each of the batteries you might be deciding between, since you will want to make sure that you get exactly the one you want, and not a knock-off.
Only papatek can offer Laptop Latitude Batteries at significantly lower prices. All Laptop Batteries are brand new, factory fresh, and include a full one-year USA warranty.

OBJECTIVE: To assess exercise capacity and left ventricular function using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) among patients with chronic heart failure randomized to a residential rehabilitation programme at baseline and six years after participation. DESIGN: Randomized controlled study. SETTING: Residential cardiac rehabilitation centre and community hospital. INTERVENTION: One month of intensive exercise and risk reduction therapy including educational sessions, a low-fat diet, and 2 hours of individually prescribed exercise daily. Control subjects received usual care. Subjects were evaluated at baseline, after completing the one-month residential programme and six years later. SUBJECTS: From an original study group of 50, 16 patients (8 exercise, 8 controls) with chronic heart failure were alive and available for evaluation after six years. MAIN MEASURES: Cardiopulmonary exercise test responses and ventricular size and function using MRI. RESULTS: Peak Vo(2) was 20.0 and 12.4% higher after the rehabilitation programme and six years later, respectively, whereas minimal changes were observed among controls. Left ventricular mass and volumes tended to decrease among subjects in the exercise group, whereas left ventricular mass and volumes tended to increase among control subjects after six years. Ejection fraction increased approximately 20% in both groups. CONCLUSION: Six years after participation in a concentrated residential rehabilitation programme, exercise capacity was preserved and no significant changes were observed in ventricular size or function. These findings provide further support for exercise rehabilitation in chronic heart failure.

Diamond White Re-Joins X Factor, Gets Raves for "Phenomenal" Whitney Cover
One lucky eliminated "X Factor" contestant was invited to re-join the competition on Tuesday — and it was Diamond White!
Explained Simon Cowell at the start of the show, "We think we've made a mistake with one particular act… We've invited them to join the finals."
White was sent home last week by mentor Britney Spears, who chose to keep Arin Ray on her team instead.
The 13-year-old's return turned the Top 12 into a Top 13, with White performing Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing" later in the episode.
L.A. Reid noted that the track was "an ambitious song choice," but told White, "You know you brought it home, girl."
Demi Lovato admitted she was "trying really hard not to cry," and said that the "phenomenal" performance "just tugged at my heart."
Cowell was especially effusive, saying, "This just proves dreams can come true."
"You come back fighting, gutsy, great vocal, great song, great performance," he said, "I'm so glad you're back in the competition."
Added Spears, "I feel like you definitely channeled Whitney in that performance and she would be proud."
Check out the video below, and tell us if you think White deserved to return.

Liberty High School (LHS) took the National D-Day Memorial up on its offer to waive educational fees for student group visits last week. Although Forest Middle School has routinely brought student groups to the Memorial, Martin Leamy, the Memorial's site manager, said this is LHS's first large group visit.
This past Saturday, May 14, soldiers from Bedford's Company A marched from the Armory to the National D-Day Memorial for their departure ceremony.
More than 750 family members, friends and well wishers from the community gathered for the send off. Saturday was also the first day of Armed Forces Week.
First there was a short blast of rain. Then came the rainbow. Then it was time for the ribbon cutting.
It made for a natural setting for the ceremony as a number of Bedford residents and local officials gathered to officially mark the opening of the Bedford Urban Garden (BUG) on Jackson Street.
School board members made no decision on a site for Liberty High School's new gym, Monday night, after a public hearing on the gym.
The Bedford Police Department is participating in an Open Data Initiative sponsored by the White House in an effort to help law enforcement be more transparent to the public.
Bedford Police Chief Todd Foreman, Assistant Town Manager Bart Warner and IT specialist Christie Crouch attended a one-day seminar last month in Washington D.C. at the White House as part of joining that initiative.
Two Bedford County Commonwealth's Attorney office employees, Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney Wes Nance and Investigator Gary Babb, were recently presented with 2016 Law Enforcement Public Service Awards by the United States Attorney's Office Eastern District of Virginia for their work on the federal prosecution and conviction of a serial sextortionist of teenage girls.
An alleged argument at a Bedford residence has led to two people being charged with discharging a firearm in an occupied dwelling and felony child neglect.
Some eighth grade students at Forest Middle School are planning a mission to Mars.
It's all simulated, of course. The Bedford County School budget is much too small to finance the real thing. However, the planning is as real-world as possible, including regular briefings that the students must give to panels of adult professionals.
This year is the first year for the class, the brain-child of Caitlin Unterman, who teaches the class, officially called Science Exploration.
Aubrey Layne, Virginia's Secretary of Transportation, dropped by the Welcome Center with some good news. The S-curves on U. S. 460 may get realigned. These two sets of curves have been the scene of a number accidents and have proven fatal to truckers if their load shifts while negotiating them.
Moneta Elementary School is getting used to showcasing its personal learning pilot program to teachers and dignitaries.
On Thursday, the school took that to another level, as Virginia Secretary of Education Anne Holton got up close and personal with several students as the school opened its classrooms to her and others to learn more about the program.
Joining Holton on the tour were several members of the Bedford County School Board, Superintendent Dr. Douglas Schuch and Del. Kathy Byron.

LOS ANGELES ?- Junior Konrad Schmidt hit a three-run double and senior Brad Boyer a two-run homer as the Arizona baseball team scored five runs in the second inning in a 10-5 win over USC at Dedeaux Field on Friday.
The victory,
Trailing 1-0 after USC pulled ahead on a RBI-double by Baron Frost in the bottom of the first, the Wildcats loaded the bases with two outs for No. 9 hitter Schmidt. The Wildcat backstop laced Ian Kennedy's 2-0 offering to left field for a three-run double to hand UA the lead.
Boyer then rewarded Schmidt with a trip home in the next at-bat and extended
USC, which stranded 13 runners on base on the night, fought back with a pair of runs in the third to cut UA's edge to 5-3 and threatened in both the fourth and fifth innings but couldn't put together the key hit to pull even or ahead. The Torjans left two on in the fourth and the bases loaded in the fifth.
USC made it a one-run game at 5-4 in the bottom of the seventh when UA center fielder T.J. Steele misplayed Darin Vieira's single hit into a two base error and pinch hitter Josh Fogel drove him home with a sacrifice fly.
However, Steele redeemed himself in the top of the eighth with a RBI single to score Brad Glenn, and added another run on a base hit by Boyer two batters later to push
USC scored an unearned run in the bottom of the inning, but
Offensively Boyer and Glenn led
UA's Matt Baugh (2-1), who worked out of the bases-loaded jam in the fifth, picked up his second win of the year with two innings of relief of starter Preston Guilmet. Baugh gave up an unearned run on four hits and finished with one strikeout and no walks.
Closer Daniel Schlereth picked up his team-leading sixth save of the year after limiting the Trojans to one unearned run over the final 2 1/3 innings. He surrendered just one hit and finished with two Ks and a pair of walks.
USC's Kennedy (5-7) was charged with the loss after giving up five runs on seven hits over 6 1/3 innings. He struck out eight and walked four.

Just wondering: Is Gail Simone's Red Sonja series a reboot? Been trying to find info on it...
Just wondering: Is Gail Simone's Red Sonja series a reboot? Been trying to find info on it...
And another question: Which Red Sonja miniseries/one-shots take place in the Queen Sonja continuity (Sonja dies, is reincarnated decades later, becomes queen, etc.)? I've heard that Atlantis Rises is one but I am not sure.
I don't really see the need for a reboot. Like Conan, Red Sonja is a character who can be launched into new adventures with no reference to previous continuity without actually losing any of it, simply because she is a wanderer. Why reboot?
Probably make more sense to repost it as its own thread. People who have thought about that would be more likely to notice it. Just saying.

text: Close College Football Top 25 Review 0 0 0 More 0 0 0 View Gallery Next Previous Next AP The Cowboys are on quite a roll. A week after showing concussion-like symptoms against Missouri, star receiver Justin Blackmon returned in notable fashion, catching 13 balls for 171 yards and two touchdowns. But Oklahoma State also impressed on defense, disrupting Robert Griffin III (pictured) and limiting him to one touchdown pass and two interceptions. 1|18 Kirby Lee/U.S. PRESSWIRE After nearly a full calendar year of blowout victories, Luck and the Cardinal might have forgotten what a thriller feels like. Luck threw for 330 yards and drove his team for the game-tying score after trailling with 3:08 to play to force overtime. Stepfan Taylor ran for the go-ahead score in the third overtime, and Stanford's defense preserved its 16-game winning streak by forcing Curtis McNeal's fumble into the end zone to finish it. 2|18 Todd Kirkland/Icon SMI Junior Tevin Washington rushed for 176 yards and broke the two longest runs of his career, leading Georgia Tech to an upset of Clemson and likely snuffing out the Tigers' national title hopes. Orwin Smith (shown) added two short rushing tochdowns for the Yellow Jackets, who snapped a two-game losing streak. 3|18 Jim Z. Rider/US PRESSWIRE With Darron Thomas and LaMichael James back but not at full strength, Oregon benefited from a huge day from its special teams. Avery Patterson (pictured) blocked a punt early, and superfrosh De'Anthony Thomas registered a 93-yard kickoff return touchdown in the third quarter. 4|18 Don McPeak/US PRESSWIRE This one's going to sting for a while. With Vanderbilt up 28-20 in the fourth quarter, Jerry Franklin recovered a Zac Stacy fumble and returned it 94 yards for the touchdown. A two-point conversion evened the score, and Arkansas went up by a field goal with 6:53 left. Vandy had a chance to send the game to overtime with a 27-yard field goal, but Carey Spear missed wide right. 5|18 Bruce Thorson/US PRESSWIRE Call it a Hail Mary Hangover. A week after shocking Wisconsin on a last-second touchdown pass, Michigan State managed just 187 total yards against Nebraska. The Huskers didn't have to completely rely on their defense, getting 158 total yards and three total touchdowns (two rushing, one receiving) from Rex Burkhead. 6|18 AP Kansas State's undefeated season came to an end in lopsided fashion. The Wildcats had the misfortune of drawing the Sooners off their shocking Week 8 loss to Texas Tech, and Bob Stoops has never lost back-to-back conference games. Bill Snyder's crew kept it close in the first half, but Ryan Broyles (pictured) and Co. pulled away in the second half to register an astounding 690 total yards on the day. 7|18 Greg Bartram/U.S. PRESSWIRE Wisconsin had its heart broken again. Braxton Miller threw a 40-yard touchdown pass to Devin Smith (shown) with 20 seconds left as Ohio State stunned Wisconsin. It was almost exactly seven days earlier that the Badgers were beaten 37-31 at Michigan State on a miracle pass on the final play of the game. The latest heartbreak, just like that one, wasn't confirmed until it passed a video review. 8|18 Wade Payne/AP South Carolina's offense may not look as pretty without star running back Marcus Lattimore. It still managed to get the job done. Connor Shaw (14) threw for one touchdown and ran for another, and Brandon Wilds ran for 137 yards as South Carolina survived Tennessee to stay in control of the SEC East. 9|18 AP The Hokies managed just 14 points despite racking up 434 yards, but they'll take the victory. David Wilson had another big day for Tech, rushing for 148 yards, but first-year started Logan Thomas continues to be up-and-down at quarterback. Thomas managed just 191 pass yards against the Blue Devils, threw two interceptions and fumbled once. 10|18 Troy Taormina/US PRESSWIRE Another week, another second-half collapse for Texas A&M. The Aggies led by 11 at halftime, nearly lost in regulation (Missouri failed to hit a 46-yard game-winning field goal) and then failed to answer in overtime after James Franklin found Marcus Lucas for an 11-yard score. Henry Josey (pictured) had another big day for the Tigers, rushing 20 times for 157 yards and a score. 11|18 AP Purdue was riding high after its Week 8 upset of Illinois. Unfortunately, Purdue was also catching Michigan coming off a bye week. Denard Robinson had a poor day through the air, completing just nine passes for 170 yards, no touchdowns and a pick, but he got plenty of help from his ground game. Fitzgerald Toussaint (pictured) carried 20 times for 170 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Wolverines to a 7-1 mark. 12|18 Michael C. Johnson/U.S. PRESSWIRE Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads watched as redshirt freshman Jared Barnett's confidence grew. Barnett threw for a touchdown and ran for another, and Iowa State shocked the Red Raiders a week after they won at Oklahoma. Making his first start, Barnett's mobility gave the Red Raiders defense fits. He rushed for 92 yards on 19 carries and completed 14-of-26 passes for 144 yards. His touchdowns were career firsts. 13|18 Thomas Campbell/US PRESSWIRE There are good nights, and then there are nights like Case Keenum had against Rice. Houston's star quarterback (pictured) threw five touchdowns to set the FBS career touchdown-pass record, then went on to throw four more to finish with a whopping nine on the night to go along with 534 yards. 14|18 ZUMAPRESS.com Joe Paterno has made history once more, passing Eddie Robinson as the all-time winningest NCAA Division I football coach with his 409th victory. The Nittany Lions improved to 8-1 on a game-winning touchdown from Silas Redd (pictured) in the final minutes, while the Illini suffered their third loss in a row. 15|18 Kim Klement/US PRESSWIRE The monkey is off Mark Richt's back, at least for a little while. Georgia registered just its fourth victory in the last 22 meetings with SEC East rival Florida, allowing the Bulldogs to keep their divisional title hopes alive. Aaron Murray threw two touchdown passes on fourth-down to help the Bulldogs win their sixth straight; the Gators have lost four in a row. 16|18 Bruce Yeung/Yeung Photography In control of the Pac-12 South, Arizona State couldn't afford a slip-up against an injury-riddled, 31-point underdog. Brock Osweiler threw for 307 yards and two touchdowns, Cameron Marshall added three scores on the ground and Arizona State (6-2, 4-1 Pac-12) routed conference newcomer Colorado. 17|18 AP It was a snowy day in Jersey. It was also an emotional one, as paralyzed former Rutgers player Eric LeGrand led the Scarlet Knights out of the tunnel to start the game. But the Mountaineers bounced back from Week 8's shocking loss to Syracuse thanks to a big day from Shawne Alston, who rushed for 110 yards and two scores on 10 carries. 18|18 Next up More Sports A four-time manager of the year, La Russa retired on top after leading the Cardinals to the 2011 World Series title. He won with Oakland in 1989, and St. Louis in 2006 and this year, joining Sparky Anderson as the only manager to win a World Series title with clubs in both the American and National Leagues. 33 Biggest Retirements of 2011 November 1, 2011 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More Recommended Galleries College Football The bulk of last year's Big 12 championship squad is back, including eight offensive starters.

As I was reading the June 6 Columbian story "Disney to ditch junk food ads on kids' shows" about Disney television no longer advertising nutritionally deficient foods and Disney parks cutting back on the sale of the same, I paused to think about the sacrifice this will mean to Disney in lost revenue and my reaction was: "Good for them!" It's a good example of putting the good of the people before corporate greed. And, of course, I went on wishing that more companies would follow suit. But, there is another side of this coin.
Individual greed is just as undermining to the national economy as corporate greed.
We all buy things at big-box stores because they are cheaper, but have you ever tried to find things that are made in America? It's almost impossible.
How many of us drive foreign cars, justifying it by saying that the car is built in America providing Americans with much-needed jobs. But the ultimate profit from the sale of each car goes to another country.
Until more of us start following The Walt Disney Company's example of good citizenship, we will not make much headway in the restoration of American well-being and will not regain the strong, vibrant economy we so desperately need and have experienced before.

Market Street closed for 'Sleepy Hollow' filming
Published: Tuesday, September 10, 2013 at 3:22 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, September 10, 2013 at 3:22 p.m.
Local production of the Fox television series "Sleepy Hollow" will move forward with its plans to close several blocks surrounding the Kenan Memorial Fountain from 6 p.m. Wednesday to 3 a.m. Thursday.
Coming soon
Learn more about the show in our Fall TV preview Sunday in the StarNews.
The permit requesting to close Market Street between Fourth and Sixth streets, and Fifth Avenue between Princess and Dock streets, was filed with the city late last week.
In order for the closure to be approved, the production had to receive permission from the city and state DOT to close off the busy intersection. Residents within a block of the closure were also notified of the request and asked for their consent because filming is scheduled to take place after 11 p.m.
According to Tammy Skinner, film liasion for the City of WIlmington, residental approval was sent to their offices on Tuesday morning. The city and state DOT also have signed off.
During the closure, those traveling toward downtown on Market will detour at Sixth to Princess and then to Third. Drivers heading from downtown on Market will detour at Fourth and follow Princess to 10th Street. Anyone traveling on Fifth will detour at Dock or Princess streets to Third.
The permit indicates the scenes will depict a young boy walking into town being helped by an EMT and speaking with another character from the show.
"Sleepy Hollow" premieres 9 p.m. Monday on Fox.

St. Patrick's Day is next Monday and "Darby O'Gill and the Little People," which celebrates its 55th anniversary this month, is the perfect movie to enjoy in honor of the day. This live-action Disney classic stars musical theater great Albert Sharpe in the title role, with Jimmy O'Dea as King Brian, Janet Munro as Katie O'Gill, and the original 007 himself--Sean Connery--as Michael McBride.
This magical film tells the story of widower Darby O'Gill, who lives in the village of Rathcullen, County Kerry, Ireland. Darby is a nice guy, and a loving father to his daughter Katie. He neglects his duties as caretaker of Lord Fitzpatrick's estate, preferring to spend his days in the pub telling stories about the leprechauns. Lord Fitzpatrick gives Darby's job to Michael McBride and tells Darby that he can retire on half pay and move into a small house on his estate. Michael and Katie spark to each other right off, but Katie is a headstrong girl who doesn't want a husband.
Katie gets angry with Michael when he doesn't believe Darby's stories about the leprechauns. It turns out that Darby has had a long friendly rivalry with Brian Connors, the king of the leprechauns who live in the fairy mountain. Darby is always after Brian's gold but Brian tricks him out of it. Despite Darby's seeming lust for Brian's treasure, what he really wants is for Katie to be happy. The two old friends set out to play matchmaker for Katie and Michael, but the road to love is rough.
"Darby O'Gill and the Little People" is based on Herminie Templeton Kavanagh's books "Darby O'Gill and the Good People" and "The Ashes of Old Wishes and Other Darby O'Gill Tales." These delightful books of short stories about Darby O'Gill's adventures with the fairies were published in 1903 and 1926 respectively.
Walt Disney wanted to make a movie about Ireland and traveled there to begin researching the project in 1947. In 1949 he saw actor Albert Sharpe in the original Broadway production of "Finian's Rainbow," and remembered him years later when he settled on making a movie based on the Darby O'Gill stories. Sharpe came out of retirement to star in the movie.
Sadly, this charming movie has been all but forgotten. It's never on TV and hasn't been released on Blu-ray. Luckily, it is available on DVD in an edition that was released in 2004 with some wonderful extras. There's a feature with Sean Connery reminiscing about the making of the movie, and another about the movie's special effects. There's also an engaging episode of Walt Disney's "Disneyland" TV series called "I Captured the King of the Leprechauns" in which Disney travels to Ireland to meet with King Brian to convince him to appear in the movie.
"Darby O'Gill and the Little People" is an essential part of any home video collection. It's available very affordably at Amazon.com. For more fairy themed movies on home video for St. Patrick's Day please click here.

Liberal's Nate Davis had a team high 67 rushing yards and a touchdown to help lead the West to a 14-7 victory over the East in Saturday's Shrine Bowl at Cessna Stadium in Wichita. It was the fourth straight victory for the West.
The West was coached by Great Bend Head Football Coach Bo Black. Black told the Wichita Eagle that Davis is a big-time back.
"(Davis) is a big-time back, and one thing we were able to do is line up in some tight sets and run some hard football. That's what he does well."
Davis is currently up for a 'Catchy' award on catchitkansas.com for the best boys multisport star for the 2008-09 school year. He was the WAC football Player of the Year and 5A All-State RB, 2nd at 5A wrestling in 189-lb. weight class (33-5 record), and 3rd in 110 hurdles at 5A state track. Voting continues through the end of July.
Davis will play college football this upcoming season at Garden City Community College.

The phrase, apparently, first appeared in a Supreme Court opinion written by Justice William Brennan in 1965.Yet the concept behind the "Marketplace of Ideas" dates back centuries. Certainly, at least, to the time when Thomas Jefferson delivered his first inauguration address and said, "Error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it."
The idea is that if many voices and many dissenting views are allowed to be heard, the truth eventually will come to light and will be accepted by the public. It is one of the foundational concepts of a democracy, and it remains one of the bedrock philosophies of our culture.
Yet the Federal Communications Commission might be on the verge of chipping away at that foundation. Federal regulators are poised to ease restrictions on media ownership in the nation's largest cities, allowing companies to simultaneously own newspapers and TV stations and radio stations in the top 20 markets.
This is the third time in the past decade the FCC has flirted with this idea. Logic has prevailed and pushed back the previous efforts, but there appears to be little opposition to the plan this time around.
The thinking behind the proposal is that it would improve the business climate for the struggling newspaper industry, creating a new market of potential buyers. The reality is that it would generate media monopolies in major markets, and therefore would stifle the Marketplace of Ideas.
As Scott Campbell, publisher of the independently owned Columbian, said in 2003: "The free flow of information in a democracy is not served by having fewer owners. Localness, diversity and accountability ought to be the foundation of media ownership."
As Gov. Chris Gregoire said last year, consolidated media ownership "stifles creativity and content. It narrows perspectives available to each of us as citizens, and it is unhealthy in a society that rests on principles of equality and diversity."
Undoubtedly, the media marketplace has been altered in recent decades. The newspaper industry no longer has a monopoly on local news; the Internet has given voice to the voiceless. But there is an old axiom attributed to Mark Twain about never picking a fight "with someone who buys ink by the barrel," and it still holds some truth today. If the people who buy ink by the barrel in a city also own local TV and radio news operations, then dissenting opinion is effectively quashed. If those same people happen to be located in an office 3,000 miles away, then the veracity of local voices is effectively diminished.
We live in a country that welcomes and, indeed, embraces those of differing backgrounds and differing opinions and differing experiences. It is through the recognition and the melding of these differences that we are able to reach a consensus of thought and achieve the ability to move forward. It is through the Marketplace of Ideas that differing versions of the truth are vetted and examined.
This, as much as the pursuit of liberty, is central to the core of our nation; there is a reason that freedom of speech is included in the First Amendment to the Constitution. It is a stretch to think that the FCC proposal would stifle that freedom, but it certainly would shackle the opportunity to be heard, which is nearly as important.
In the end, media monopolies in large markets would shrink the Marketplace of Ideas. And that would provide a dangerous blow to the notion of democracy. That is why the FCC should retain the valuable restrictions on media ownership.

Things like evil, homicidal robots.
Centuries ago an artificial intelligence threatened all of human life, and so people were forced to banish every AI in self-defense. And so the machines waited for the right time, and now they're revolting from their banishment.
The Science Police rush to meet them, where we see that Legion member Chameleon has been taking the form of a human and moonlighting as one of them for reasons as yet unexplained.
We cut to Brainiac 5 who has some villain named Lemnos in stasis. Apparently Lemnos was responsible for Dream Girl's death several issues back. Brainy has some microscopic people (Imskians) working on Lemnos for him, trying to mine his unique power of negating memory. This is somehow going to help him bring Dream Girl back to life. Timberwolf arrives and delivers an unseen artifact to Brainy, which is also supposed to help in this endeavor even though we only see the box it's being kept in.
A few Naltorians are then seen communicating with members of the Legion about the fact that Dream Girl's body was never returned to them after she died.
Next we have an incredibly cool scene with Supergirl, Saturn Girl and Cosmic Boy. Saturn Girl linked Cosmic Boy's and Supergirl's minds so that he could try and help "pull out some memories", and we see a page right out of Infinite Crisis with Supergirl and many other heroes from Donna Troy's "space team" being sucked into some kind of glowing vortex, but Supergirl apparently doesn't remember any of the events leading up to that moment.
Kara then spends a few moments playing with her flight ring which, when she takes it off, first changes her appearance to that of a girl with brown hair and blue eyes and after she puts it back on and takes it off again, changes her appearance to a girl with black hair, black eyes and glasses. Lightning Lad and Ultra Boy then run into the room and inform everyone of the robot situation, and they take off to stop them.
We cut to Projectra and a scene where she's made illusions of her dead parents to comfort herself, but she's interrupted by Star Boy who stops by to check on her simply because he's concerned for her well-being, which she says no one has ever done before.
Back to Supergirl and the Legion, who bust in on the robot riot and start dismantling them all to save the Science Police, who aren't faring too well. Eventually the robots are stopped and a member of the SP reveals that the largest robot was being fueled with some sort of special powder, Xenodust. Supergirl scans it with microscopic vision and finds that Atom Girl is inside of it.
Supergirl and the Legion members follow her back to Brainiac 5, who wanted a sample of the dust. The rest of the Legion finds out Brainy still has Dream Girl's corpse and are none to happy about it, and it becomes obvious that he did indeed give Dream Girl's flight ring to Supergirl. Just then Rol Purtha shows up and claims he's Dream Girl's replacement to Legion as appointed by the United Planets.
Story - 5: Make no mistake, there is no way that this is a bad issue by any stretch of the imagination. The writing is solid, the story advances on multiple fronts and there are good character moments and development. Still this comic is head and shoulders above most other comics I'm presently reading.
We get great dialogue and character moments with Supergirl and Ultra Boy during the fight with the robots, great character moments between Star Boy and Projectra and with Brainiac and his seeming obsession with returning Dream Girl to life.
The story deepens on several fronts, from the mysterious artifact and "xenodust" and the Imskian's harnessing a memory-negation power for Brainiac to Chameleon's impersonating a member of the Science Police for reasons unknown and Projectra's grief over the death of her parents.
We also get the very cool Infinite Crisis tie-in page, which would warrant this issue a rating of 4 all on its own.
Good stuff all around.
Art - 3: I didn't care for the art in this issue as much as past issues, but Barry Kitson wasn't doing the pencils so that's certainly got something to do with it. It wasn't bad, although some of the faces looked like the proportions were a little off and when compared to the excellent art from the past two issues, the art in this book just felt like it was lacking.
Cover Art - 4: I don't care for the words on the cover (although they do balance out the book title) or the placement of a character who doesn't make a single appearance in the book (Shadow Lass), all of the other characters feature relatively prominently and the focus is on Supergirl's Legion flight ring, which is a central element of the story.

Dr. Kumar's research employs methods in functional genomics and proteomics to investigate important questions in eukaryotic cell / molecular biology. Specifically, he uses the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model organism to study conserved pathways mediating cell cycle progression and cell polarity establishment. These pathways represent an effective eukaryotic model of signaling networks germane to cancer research, encompassing yeast orthologs of known oncogenes and tumor suppressors. Currently, his research entails a "system-wide" approach to the study of a multi-pathway process wherein strains of budding yeast form invasive filaments called pseudohyphae. As highly similar processes of filament formation are essential to the virulence of many pathogenic fungi, this study holds translational/clinical (as well as basic science) relevance. Additional projects are available in the lab incorporating genomic approaches to the analysis of the eukaryotic cell cycle.
Dr. Kumar received his PhD in the biomedical sciences from Wright State University before pursuing postdoctoral training in Michael Snyder's lab at Yale University. While at Yale, Dr. Kumar was a postdoctoral fellow of the American Cancer Society and a Leslie Warner Fellow in cancer research. Since joining the University of Michigan, Dr. Kumar has been named as a Biological Scholar and is a Research Assistant Professor in the Life Sciences Institute.

A player's postseason numbers may not count in fantasy leagues, but the positive impression an individual makes on potential owners always plays into draft strategy the following season.
Owners often can anticipate productivity in the playoffs from elite-level players who have achieved prior success either in recent postseasons (Jonathan Quick, Patrick Kane, Sidney Crosby, David Krejci, etc.) or the preceding regular season (Tuukka Rask, Antti Niemi, James Neal, etc.). But there always are those eye-opening playoff contributions from less likely sources that stay fresh in our minds all summer long.
Let's take a look at 10 underrated playoff performers from the 2013 Stanley Cup Playoffs that warrant more fantasy consideration than ever entering 2013-14.
Bryan Bickell, F, Chicago Blackhawks
Only Patrick Sharp (10) had more playoff goals in 2013 than Bickell, who got a new contract from Chicago this summer. The power forward had nine goals in 23 playoff games -- equaling his regular-season output -- to go along with top-five totals in plus/minus (plus-11) and hits (85). Fantasy owners can expect Bickell, who went undrafted in most Yahoo! leagues last season, to eclipse the 20-goal plateau for the first time of his career next season. Whether Bickell sees top-line action with Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane or is slotted next to Andrew Shaw on the third unit, grabbing him in the late rounds can give your team category coverage and a touch of scoring.
Johnny Boychuk, D, Boston Bruins
Boychuk flew under the radar all postseason with statistical prowess across the board. Despite never posting more than five goals in a single season in his NHL career, he scored six (tied for most in NHL by a defenseman) in 22 playoff games. His ranks among defensemen in other categories were all the more impressive: first in shots on goal (63), second in hits (74) and first in blocked shots (62). Things are looking bright for the 29-year-old, who could be paired with one of the Bruins' younger blueliners (Torey Krug, Matt Bartkowski, Dougie Hamilton) in 2013-14. All things considered, he's worth your while as a depth or bench defenseman.
Derick Brassard, F, New York Rangers
Brassard blossomed after being dealt to the Rangers in April, accumulating 11 points in 13 regular-season games. He found his niche in his first career playoff appearance, mostly centering the team's second line, with Rick Nash and Mats Zuccarello. He also was a bright spot (three power-play points, tied for the team playoff lead) for a power-play unit that fell short of expectations. He was New York's only player with a double-digit playoff point total, and became the first Rangers player since Wayne Gretzky in 1997 with a six-game playoff point streak, per Elias Sports Bureau. If new coach Alain Vigneault gives him consistent time with Nash again, owners won't regret spending a middle-round pick on Brassard.
Logan Couture, F, San Jose Sharks
Couture has been on the fantasy map as an emerging center in the shadow of Joe Thornton over the last few seasons, but he took the next step toward stardom this past spring. Couture led the League in playoff power-play goals (five), becoming the first player to post five or more power-play goals in fewer than 15 games in a single playoff since Doug Weight in 2002-03. He finished among the regular-season League leaders in goals (21, tied for 10th) and shots on goal (151, tied for 16th). Couture has seen an increasing amount of power-play ice time with each passing season (career-high 3:07 per game in 2012-13) and has finally arrived as a top-50 fantasy asset.
Corey Crawford, G, Chicago Blackhawks
After being drafted 143rd on average in Yahoo! leagues last season, fantasy owners view Crawford in an entirely different light now. He went 19-5-5 in 2012-13, finishing among the NHL's top five in goals-against average and save percentage. In the playoffs, Crawford led the League in wins (16) and GAA (1.84), en route to a championship with the Blackhawks. He allowed two goals or fewer in 16 of 23 playoff starts, proving to be a more consistent difference-maker than Conn Smythe Trophy winner Patrick Kane (pointless in 10 of 23 playoff games). With Ray Emery now out of the picture, Crawford is in great position to put up career highs in appearances, wins and shutouts for the reigning champions.
Emerson Etem, F, Anaheim Ducks
It may have been one playoff round, but Etem picked the right time to give the League a glimpse of his potential with the Ducks. The native of Long Beach, Calif., built off his regular-season production with three goals on 12 shots and two assists in Anaheim's seven-game series loss to the Detroit Red Wings. Considering Bobby Ryan has been traded and coach Bruce Boudreau saw Etem excel despite a fourth-line playoff role, fantasy owners should bank on him being a leading candidate to occupy a top-six spot for the Ducks. He's a clear fantasy sleeper entering the season, especially if he finds a home with Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry on the team's top line.
Krug, 22, had three games of regular-season NHL experience prior to the playoffs, but burst onto the scene with four goals, two assists and a plus-5 rating in 15 postseason games. The most surprising part about the Michigan State product's rise to prominence was how much ice time he saw with the man advantage in the playoffs (2:26 per game). He led all defensemen with three playoff power-play goals, and the Bruins posted a strong ratio of goals scored (12) to goals allowed (three) with him on the ice. Barring any setbacks, owners can count on Krug for a strong plus/minus rating, 5-10 goals and occasional power-play points.
Gustav Nyquist, F, Detroit Red Wings
Nyquist, drafted in the fourth round by Detroit in 2008, looks to be a steal based on his playoff heroics in 2013 (two goals, three assists, plus-3, one power-play goal, one game-winning goal) -- and fantasy owners could reap the benefits from adding him as early as this season. Nyquist, currently a restricted free agent, should be back in the fold come training camp. If he and the Wings agree to terms, he'll likely be in the mix for second-line duty. Valtteri Filppula signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning and Daniel Cleary and Damien Brunner remain unsigned, leaving spots available. The team did bring in Stephen Weiss, who is coming off an injury, and 40-year-old Daniel Alfredsson, but the team also could opt to prioritize Nyquist's development by giving him a featured role. If injuries mount, Nyquist will be in prime position to take the next step.
Kyle Turris, F, Ottawa Senators
Turris held down the fort during Jason Spezza's injury-ravaged season, with 29 points in 48 regular-season games. Spezza is expected to be back healthy and on the top line with Ryan, but Turris will be utilized in a major role after helping Ottawa get past the first round in the spring. He had at least one shot on goal in 44 of 48 regular-season games, and nearly was a point-per-game player in the playoffs (six goals, three assists in 10 games). Two of his frequent linemates, Alfredsson and Jakob Silfverberg, have moved on, but Turris will still have reliable pieces around him and should continue to develop as a goal-scorer.
Slava Voynov, D, Los Angeles Kings
If you're in a keeper fantasy league, Voynov needs to be on your radar. Voynov tied the NHL record this past postseason for the most game-winning goals (four) ever by a defenseman in a single playoff year. The Kings blueliner had four multi-point outings in 18 playoff games after just four in 48 regular-season games. His frequent defense partner, Rob Scuderi, won't return, but Los Angeles still has a blend of youth and experience on the back end that can help this 23-year-old adjust. Voynov averaged 2:05 per game on the power play last season and was extremely efficient at home in the playoffs (nine points, plus-9 in nine games) -- a testament to his growing composure in big-time spots. The scary part is that he's only going to get more comfortable in those situations.

Female executives must work for 14 years longer than men to reach the same total career pay, according to a new study.
13:59, UK, Tuesday 19 August 2014
Women in management position still earn significantly less than their male counterparts, according to a new report.
The Chartered Management Institute (CMI) said the pay gap is widening and for women in their 40s earnings are more than a third less than men.
The CMI survey of 68,000 managers across the UK showed there was a £9,000 pay differential, equivalent to 23%, which increased as women got older.
It added that annual bonuses for female directors were also lower, by £11,000, at slightly below £42,000.
As a result of the disparity, a woman must work 14 years longer over a lifetime to earn the same amount of money, the report said.
CMI chief executive Ann Francke said: "Lower levels of pay for women managers cannot be justified, yet our extensive data shows the pay gap persists, with many women hit by a mid-life pay crisis.
"Women and men should be paid on the basis of their performance in their particular roles, but this is clearly not yet the case for far too many.
"It's not right that women would have to work until almost 80 for the same pay rewards as men.
The CMI said it is not acceptable to use raising children or "time served" as excuses for the gap.
XpertHR head of salary surveys Mark Crail, who helped with the study, said: "The data shows that women begin to fall behind at the age when they are most likely to be starting a family, and it just gets worse from then on.
"It appears that employers often give up on women in mid-career and are missing out on a huge pool of untapped knowledge, experience and talent."

(December 30) -- Star Clippers' Star Flyer, which had planned to homeport at Phuket for a handful of South Asia voyages, reports today that it will move the ship to Singapore for the time being. This also means that itineraries will be altered.
Star Flyer originally was slated to sail to ports such as Ko Adang, Ko Lipe, Ko Khai Nok, Phi Phi Islands and Similan Islands (Thailand), Penang and Langkawi (Malaysia). The new, Singapore-based week-long sailings will focus on Malaysia, with calls at Pangkor Island and Malacca; Penang and Langkawi remain.
The move to Singapore impacts cruises slated to depart January 8 - February 5; Star Clippers' announcement says it plans to return to Phuket in mid-February.

Now that Labor Day has just passed, the fall season is quickly coming upon us. And what is one of the best things about the fall season? It is the boots. If you are talking about mega trending accessories that everyone will be checking out, it is the boots.
It seems that this fall's boot trend, holding on to the ankle boot or 'booty' that really took form last fall, is the chunky heel. The ankle boot, carrying a chunkier heel with it, is going to fly off the shelves. If not just from the comfort of having a more solid heel to walk on all day and into the night, then it can be the great colors that are available. It can also be that you can wear a chunky heel ankle boot with everything from shorts, to dresses and skirts to jeans and corduroy.
Those of us who are 90s chicks absolutely recall the chunky grunge mix-match boots and flower dresses with lace. Many bands to movies and hit television shows catered to the grunge trend, including Beverly Hills 90210. With Beverly Hills huge fan base, audiences did watch to see what 'Beverly Hills High' students were wearing. Drew Barrymore and Winona Ryder were huge fans of the military style chunky boot with skirts and dresses. Along with the chunky heel, boots will also be adorned with studs and chains. Grunge is what is trending for fall.
We can't wait to see what boots we will find dashing around Colorado. This fall is chunky and embellished and do not be afraid to go bold with color, too. This will be fun and exciting and comfortable. See you out there having fun!

While Laos might be poor in terms of financial resources, it is definitely rich in culture, personality and culinary attractions.
Whether you are in the process of planning your trip to Southeast Asia or are already travelling through the region, visiting Laos comes highly recommended. Stopping off at cities like the relaxing Luang Prabang, or the picturesque capital Vientiane are often the highlights of many people's trips.
So if you do decide to visit Laos, or you are yet to make up your mind, this guide to the best local food available to sample in the country should help you out.
Larb in Laos
Larb is perhaps the national dish of the country and due to the strong culinary influence of Laos, it should be familiar with anyone who has eaten the local delicacies of the neighbouring countries such as Thailand and Cambodia. The dish itself is best described as a minced meat salad which might not sound all that appealing at first but as there are many different varieties on offer, it is definitely worth exploring and sampling the different versions for some culinary surprises.
While the raw meat versions, which are equally as popular as the cooked meat Larb dishes, might not be as palatable to foreign tastes, the range of different meats used should make at least some versions of Larb a popular choice for travellers. Chicken, beef, pork, fish and duck are all popular choices while the vegetarian option usually heavily features mushrooms.
As this is a true Lao dish, it will be a fiery one that should be eaten with caution thanks to the high chilli content. It is usually accompanied by a side serving of sticky rice and raw vegetables in true Laos and Isan fashion.
Tam Mak Hoong or Som Tam
Known as tam som or tam mak hoong in Laos, and som tam in Thailand, green papaya salad is a staple dish in both countries. The main ingredient of the dish is unripe papaya which is shredded, tasting unlike it does when in its ripened state. The mix of sour, hot, salt and sweet flavours from the other ingredients combine to make a unique tasting dish that is very refreshing. This makes it ideal for the hot and humid climate of Laos and Isan.
The list of possible ingredients that could potentially find their way into this pounded papaya salad dish is long and depending on where you order it and how, it could contain anything from dried shrimp, whole black crabs, raw Thai eggplant and many other local delicacies.
Tam som can be very spicy, thanks to the heavy use of chillies, so it is worth pointing out that the strange looking side dish of raw vegetables is actually there to help soothe the burning sensation in your mouth should your chef be making a particular potent batch of tam som that day.
The dish is also popularly served with a choice of sticky rice, which is ideal for mopping up the sauce; deep fried chicken; grilled chicken; fresh rice noodles; pork rinds or on its own.
The Lao Sausage
This is an interesting dish, and due to the scarcity of traditional western sausages in Southeast Asia, can attract many foreigners due to its similar appearance. However, while this dish has its own merits, it shouldn't be seen a replacement for its western cousin.
One main difference in the taste and production method of the Laos sausage is the part where, in its raw state, it is left out for a few days and kept at room temperature in order to 'sour' or ferment. This gives the sausage a distinct taste and sets it apart from more traditional meat products of this type. The use of sticky rice as an ingredient for the filling is also a novel choice.

White Sulphur Springs, W.Va. -- The defensive backfield is one of most critical position groups on the New Orleans Saints roster.
Depending on how you look at the group, the glass is either half-full or half-empty.
The unit has tons of potential, with former Pro Bowlers Jairus Byrd and Champ Bailey joining a promising holdovers Keenan Lewis, Kenny Vaccaro, Corey White and Rafael Bush.
But there also are question marks. Bailey, Byrd and Robinson are coming off injuries. In fact, Bailey has missed the past two practices at training camp and Byrd remains limited. Depth could be a question mark.
