According to TSN, the Calgary Flames defeated the New York Rangers 4-3 at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary on Friday night.
Flames veteran Michael Cammalleri broke a 3-3 tie with only eight seconds left in the second period to give Calgary two points in the Western Conference standings.
Cammalleri also led the Flames in scoring with a goal and an assist for two points.
Calgary took the 2-0 lead after the first period, before the Rangers marched back with three second period goals of their own. Flames enforcer Kevin Westgarth then scored his third of the season to tie the game at three before Cammalleri's game winner.
With seven games to go in the regular season, the Rangers currently sit in second place in the Metropolitan Division with 86 points. They are six points up on the Washington Capitals, Toronto Maple Leafs, Columbus Blue Jackets and Detroit Red Wings for a playoff spot.
Calgary's next game will be in Ottawa on Sunday evening.

Related MediaVideo - Voters decide on marijuana, same-sex marriage
Washington votes to legalize pot
Published: Wednesday, November 7, 2012 at 12:50 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, November 7, 2012 at 12:50 a.m.
Voters in Washington state becoming the first to legalize recreational use of marijuana.
The marijuana measure in Washington sets up a showdown with the federal government, which outlaws the drug. The measure establishes a system of state-licensed marijuana growers, processors and retail stores, where adults over 21 can buy up to an ounce. It also establishes a standard blood test limit for driving under the influence.
Estimates have showed pot taxes could bring in hundreds of millions of dollars a year, but the sales won't start until state officials make rules to govern the legal weed industry.
The outcomes of similar measures in Colorado and Oregon were uncertain.
In Massachusetts, voters approved a measure to allow marijuana use for medical reasons, joining 17 other states. Arkansas voters were deciding on a similar measure that would make it the first Southern state in that group.

It wasn't so much a surprise that the University of Miami won their opening game of its NCAA Regional against Oklahoma State. After all, UM came in as a 2-seed whereas OSU was the 3-seed, but may have been something of a surprise as to how they went about doing it.
Miami, which, with superior talent last year scuffled to an 0-2 finish in the Coral Gables Regional last year, shutout the Cowboys 7-0.
And really, the Hurricanes' pitching has been for the most part outstanding all year, and obviously it was against OSU as Chris Diaz struck out ten batters while allowing just three hits and no runs in seven innings of work.
With that said, UM has struggled, perhaps like no Hurricanes' squad has struggled offensively in recent memory. So, to see Miami put seven on the board in what is close to a must-win game was both surprising and comforting if you're a fan of the team.
Garrett Kennedy and Tyler Palmer each registered three hits, with Kennedy clubbing a home run. Additionally, what was encouraging for UM was consecutive RBI singles in the four-run inning by Kennedy, Chris Barr and Brandon Lopez.
Essentially, UM got timely hitting.
This is a team that's won convincingly at North Carolina and a team that's lost two out of three at Boston College, so anything's possible.
Having said that, it's very possible this is a new team than the one we've seen for a majority of the season, hardened by one of the toughest schedules in the country and playing for their manager and architect of the program, Jim Morris, who is ill.
Miami will take on Louisville in a winner's bracket final, and given that it's in Kentucky, one figures UM probably needs to win that game to advance as well. Beating either Bowling Green or Oklahoma State and following that up with two consecutive victories over Louisville might be too tough.
But if UM hits like it did in Game 1 against Oklahoma State? Louisville and any other team UM encounters will have a very tough opponent to deal with.

Old player back
after a long break from JK I have decided to return to this wonderful game, as I await my ordered copy of JKII I thought to inquire about a few things.
Is there still a good population on online servers of JKII?

The world of flours seems to be growing year after year. Long gone are the days of two options: white flour and whole wheat flour. By my count, Bob's Red Mill carries fifty-four different flours and meals. And these range from gluten-free to gluten-full, light to white to whole-grain, single grain flours and flour blends. Is anyone getting overwhelmed yet? How in the world does one pick a flour to use?
As many people are aware, there are flours that contain gluten (a protein found in wheat and similar grains and flours that are gluten-free (contain no gluten proteins but therefore aren't able to create structure as easily as gluten-based baked goods). Gluten-full grains provide great structure and delicious flavors that can be enjoyed by anyone who is not affected by Celiac disease nor has gluten intolerance. Gluten-free grains may be enjoyed by anyone and provide many unique flavors, colors, and textures that many gluten-eaters haven't yet discovered.
If you aren't affected by food allergies, eat any and every grain flour you can! There is a whole wide and wonderful flour-full world out there. Grains and flours that contain gluten include: wheat & semolina, barley, Kamut®, rye & pumpernickel, spelt, and triticale. All-purpose, bread, pastry, and cake flours are typically varieties of gluten flours with differing amounts of protein that correspond to their specific purpose.
If you maintain a more strict diet, don't fret, your options are far more expansive than you can imagine: nuts, beans and peas, amaranth, buckwheat, coconut, corn, flax, millet, oat, potato, quinoa, rice (white and brown and sweet), sorghum, soy, tapioca, and teff. All of these products are inherently gluten-free but they are not always tested for or processed in certified gluten-free facilities, so if you follow a gluten-free diet, make sure to check the labels.
Most gluten-containing flours are available as whole-grain flours (meaning they contain the bran and germ along with the standard endosperm) and white or light versions. Classifying flour as "white" or "light" indicates that all or most of the bran and germ have been removed. Why choose one over the other? Whole grain flours contribute rich flavor and color to a baked item as well as affects the texture (and don't forget about all the fiber and vitamins and nutrients!). The gluten and starches in the grains' endosperm create wonderfully pillowy structures that give us our much-loved sandwich breads, ciabattas, baguettes, cakes, and cookies. The bran and germ, when included (or not excluded), cut into the endosperm's structures, thereby creating items with a bit less height and a more defined texture.
The best way to pick your gluten flour is to think about the finished texture. The lightest and most delicate items should be made with Super-Fine Cake Flour or Unbleached White Pastry Flour. Hearty heavy-duty breads work best with whole-grain flours like Organic Ivory Wheat Flour and Organic Dark Rye Flour. Most other items fall right in the middle and can use blends of any light, medium, or heavy flours. Coarse meals like Organic Pumpernickel Dark Rye Meal and Graham Flour can be added for extra texture and a coarser crumb.
Super Light
Extra Special Add-Ins
If you are new to whole grain flours or just aren't in the mood for 100%, try swapping out a portion of your standard white flour for some whole grain. An easy exchange is 25%. Use a blend of 75% Unbleached White Fine Pastry Flour and 25% Whole Wheat Pastry Flour in you next pie crust, or try Spelt Flour as a quarter of the flour in your next sandwich bread. Or just go for it and whip up a batch of whole wheat chocolate chip cookies! (see recipes below)
Just because you may not follow a gluten-free diet, don't turn your back on all those gluten-free flours or you will be missing out. Gluten-free flours run the gamut in terms of flavors and textures. Gluten-free flours rarely work as stand-alone flour and the typical flour blend consists of two gluten-free flours and one starch. A good jumping off point is 1/3 of each, but as you become more comfortable and familiar with gluten free baking, you'll run across and be able to create blends that better suit your personal tastes (more info is available here
Including links about how to use binders). To incorporate gluten-free flours with gluten-full, swap out the same 25% as you would whole-grain flours.
The most popular gluten-free flours are made from rice and sorghum and rice is milled as both whole grain and white. These grains contain enough protein to aide in structure and have mild flavors that don't detract from the ideal finished product. For yeasted breads, bean flours are often used due to their high protein contents. Be forewarned, some people may notice a distinct bean flavor and aroma in raw doughs but it will dissipate after baking.
Using gluten-free flours are a great way to change up flavors and textures. Amaranth and quinoa add savory grain flavors while buckwheat, corn, millet, and oat can walk the line between both sweet and savory. Teff, buckwheat, and green pea and black bean flours can change up the color along with incorporating unique flavors.
Almond, hazelnut, and flaxseed meal, and coconut flour are all unique ingredients that require a bit more practice and information. All can be added as an extra addition and almond and hazelnut meal work well as stand-alone flour in certain applications (think macarons, flourless chocolate cakes, and paleo-centric baking). Flaxseed meal and coconut flour are a bit tricky. Flaxseed meal combined with water makes a gel-like substance that is a great substitute for eggs when used as binders and is wonderful to add to any baked good for a fiber boost. Coconut flour is extremely high in fiber and using it as the main ingredient in an item will call for using unique recipes unlike any traditional bakers have seen before. Adding a tablespoon or so of coconut flour to your recipe will help with liquid absorption and will add a delicate coconut undertone to the flavor. Before you go adding any more than that, check out some recipes designed especially for coconut flour.
Creating a Gluten Free Flour Blend:
- For an all purpose flour blend use a ratio of 1/3 light flour and 2/3 heavy and/or medium flour.
- For a pastry flour blend use a ratio of 2/3 light flour and 1/3 heavy and/or medium flour.
Substituting Gluten Free Flours for one another:
- As a general rule, substitute gluten free flours within the same "weight" group cup for cup.
- By substituting flours, you may experience a change in flavor and texture.
Heavy Flours
- Almond Meal/Flour
- Black Bean Flour
- Coconut Flour
- Fava Bean Flour
- Garbanzo Bean Flour
- Garbanzo/Fava Bean Flour
- Hazelnut Meal/Flour
- White Bean Flour
Medium Flours
- Amaranth Flour
- Brown Rice Flour
- Green Pea Flour
- Millet Flour
- Oat Flour
- Potato Flour
- Quinoa Flour
- Sorghum Flour
- Teff Flour
Light Flours
- Arrowroot Starch/ Flour
- Corn Flour
- Potato Starch
- Sweet Rice Flour
- Tapioca Flour/Starch
- White Rice Flour
Gluten free flours are classified based on their protein content. Heavy flours assist in creating the structure of your baked goods, as do medium flours. Light flours aid in binding and moisture retention.
These recommendations should help you set out on your foray into whole grain baking. As you become more comfortable and as you investigate other resources, more and more ideas and flour blends will come your way. Some excellent new whole grain baking books have come out in the last few years, some even earing award nominations! Pick up a bag of whole grain flour that piques your interest and start baking!

Fredericksburg (Va.)
In Fredericksburg, the block on Prince Edward Street south of Hurkamp Park, between George and Hanover streets, is today occupied by large brick mansions.
In 1909, the lot, owned by Judge A.T. Embrey, was vacant until May. A month before, Messrs. Rudasille and Johnson, experienced in the establishment of skating rinks, were in Fredericksburg making preparations for one here.
SASSAFRAS VARIFOLIUM is an old species, fossil forms being found in the one-hundred-million-year-old rocks of the Cretaceous period in both North America and Eurasia. Since the ice ages, it has continued to live only in a small section of Asia and in North America from Maine to Florida and westward to the beginning of the prairies. Today it is most commonly found at the wood's edge along roadsides and fence rows as a tree growing between fifteen and fifty feet.
In the summer of 1910, hundreds of electric lights shed their radiance on the Rappahannock River for the opening of Casino Island Park.
At times, a sense of things past seems to envelop tourists and residents who stroll quietly along Fredericksburg streets at twilight or drive through a countryside still scarred by the battles of the Civil War. Some swear that more than a general sense of the history of the place overwhelms them. At twilight, at midnight, or even at high noon, specters and shades of those whose place this was may return to their homes and habits to pray, to flirt, to dine, and to stroll, to fire their rifles and march in formation, or lie wounded in hospital beds, wearing uniforms of gray or blue.
In August of 1889, C. W. Wilder of New York and George F. Wheeler of Baltimore were introduced by J. R. Clarke of Baltimore, owner of the Fredericksburg Water Power Company, to the Corporation Council of Fredericksburg.
In return for the donation of an acre of land and exemption from city taxes for a period of ten years, the men agreed to construct and put into operation within six months a silk factory that would employ up to 200 girls and women from age 15 upward. It was also understood that they would enlarge the works when the opportunity demanded.
In 1883 Charles E. Hunter, an industrious Fredericksburg foundryman, purchased what was then known as Beck's Island just below the dam in the Rappahannock River at Fredericksburg.
In July, 1872 it was reported an enormous serpent, supposed to be a python, anaconda or boa constrictor, escaped from a traveling menagerie. Its body was said to be the thickness of a lamp post, and it had been seen in the meadow below the papermill (today's water treatment plant). It had also been seen in the trees overhanging the water at Beck's Island, and "we may soon expect to hear of the disappearance of the boys who go bathing" there.
As the first Germania Mill blazed, local artist Gustavus Erickson captured the fury of the flames. Earlier, he had painted the conflagration at the woolen factory. The painting was given by Mrs. Frances Jones in memory of Charles Seddon Latham and William Deacon Latham, both Gustavus Erickson paintings are owned by the Fredericksburg Museum and Cultural Center.
The will of Captain C Wistar Wallace, who died May 20, 1907, left $15,000 to the City of Fredericksburg for the purpose of establishing a public library (See November 1985 Times Magazine.) The will stipulated how the money was to be used and provided for certain conditions to be met.
When Dr. Edward Alvey, Jr., died at the age of 97 on July 11, 1999, generations of Mary Washington College students remembered him as their beloved Dean.

The San Jose Sharks scored twice in the final 3:31 Saturday night to earn a 3-2 win over the Detroit Red Wings. The game-winning goal came with just 5.9 seconds remaining.
After a turnover by Dan Cleary at the Red Wings' blue line, Milan Michalek sent a pass to Joe Pavelski, who cut in from the left side, and beat Detroit goalie Joey MacDonald.
Mark Bell had tied the game with 3:31 remaining, knocking in the rebound of his own shot after MacDonald bobbled the puck.
San Jose had opened the game's scoring just 3:14, with a power play goal by Patrick Marleau.
Detroit appeared to tie things up with 3:13 remaining in the first but the goal by Mathieu Schneider was waved off as the officials determined that Tomas Holmstrom was in the crease. Replays later showed Holmstrom to be outside of the blue paint.
Mikael Samuelsson eventually got the Red Wings on the board with a wrist shot from the right circle at 11:27 of the second.
Only 1:22 later, Schneider added one that counted, sending a blast from the high slot through Sharks' goalie Vesa Toskala and trickling across the goal line for a power play goal.
Toskala made 17 saves on 19 shots while MacDonald stopped 32 of the 35 shots he faced.
Each team scored once on the power play. Detroit had three chances on the night while San Jose benefitted from five.
The Red Wings will next take to the ice on Tuesday night when they visit the St. Louis Blues. Before the game, the Blues will retire future Hall-of-Famer Brett Hull's jersey.
One more win and we will have another streak going. We are coming off of a good win on the road, lets keep it up
And Marleau opens up the scoring in under four minutes
two on one!!!
Side note: Willy is in the game!
Penalties like that bother me, we will take the powerplay but, that means that there will be a garbage call on us later. Just like that holding we just took on Homer
Side note # 2: I am beting on a fight
Or the Bulls*it no goal
Oh crap, I hope Drapes is OK
Ken cut him off, he started to talk about it and then Ken wisely changed the subject to the rulebook.
Schneider!!!! and that one will count!
Me after the first goal: "Call that one back, bitches!"
Much better period. Let's hold onto this one!
That was CRAP, looks like overtime!
Here is our problem, we get too comfortable with the lead and we get lazy and blow it. Our defense has looked like complete garbage the entire third period. Too bad Macdonald was hung out to dry!
I've heard of bad calls, but that one takes the cake!!!
Other factors aside, that call cost us the game!
The replay clearly showed that he was NOT in the crease.
19-35 SOG ridiculous
Catmandu and I were saying the same thing, looking at the shot clock while waiting for people to file out.And I forgot to DVR the game, so I can't say anything about the replay on the disallowed goal. If that's the case... I don't even know what to say. What a CF.I'm going to be reviewing every goal against the Wings for the rest of the season and if there's anyone even near the crease, I'll be pitching a fit.
Homer was no where near the crease, the netminder came out and bumped into him. The replay was clear and the goal should have counted. This is why the coaches need the ability to challenge calls like they do in the NFL. Instant replay on all goals!
Clark you had mentioned that you thought something was trying to get the Wings at the begining of the season. I think it's still true, see last nights game
I don't really think anyone is trying to "get" the Wings, a conspiracy like that would be too big to keep secret. I just think the officials in general suck.
Unrelated but less depressing: I got the photos from that game posted to the multimedia section of the site. You can access them all through the Gameday page for that game at http://www.detroitho.../2006/12/02.php, or by doing a search for December 2, 2006, in the multimedia section (if you want thumbnails and file info).

Senator Russell Pearce and candidate Jerry Lewis took to the stage last night prepared to face each other in defense of the platform they each stand on. Both candidates gave the impression of being comfortable and ready for anything. Then the proceedings began.
Candidate Lewis seemed unprepared for the situation, leaving one to ponder how would he be if elected to one of the most important positions in State politics. His answers were vague, and most of them seemed to begin with the word 'listen' and end with 'work with'. There was no clear answer to any of the questions asked, and at one point Lewis earned a collective gasp followed by many boos when he likened the State of Arizona to Alabama 1964.
His responses carried a negative tone, and you left with the impression that this Arizonan does not like the state he moved to in the 80's. There is a simple solution for that, since many in the crowd disagreed with the negative light he painted, stopping just short of calling the voters in Mesa racist. (This conclusion since in the election held in November, Senator Pearce won the seat he is now defending by a landslide vote of 70%.)
The solution would be for Mr. Lewis to move back to California and leave Arizona politics to the Arizonan who not only loves his state, but has been working hard to ensure that he performs the job the voters have elected him to do.
Enter Senator Pearce. Every question was answered with clear, concise facts. Nothing was left hanging in the air, and each response carried, "We are working..." "I personally took great interest in..." "We did pass..."
And more importantly, the love he has for his district, his state and his neighbors was evident in such statements as, "I'm proud of Arizona and its accomplishments. We lead the nation on these issues (referring to illegal immigration, border security, and other issues facing American's today) Thirty states follow our example, and Governor Brewer gets standing ovations wherever she goes."
Pearce went on to explain that since the passing of SB1070 crime is down, class sizes in our schools are down, businesses are coming to Arizona, and tourism is up 10%. He went on to add, "We have a balanced budget. Arizona can meet it's budget without extending the 1% tax."
The victor in last night's candidate forum was the man who with everything in him fights for you, me, and every Arizonan, black, white, brown, red, in his district, out of his district that resides within the borders of our state. He is willing to continue that fight, and put himself on the front lines of such harassment as the recall election that has been laid at his feet by native Californians who wish to see our state turned into Baby California.
The voters in Ld 18 have the future of our great state in their hands. They can win this battle for us.
The solution is simple. Vote right, vote Pearce.

|Proceedings title
|Administrative Science Association of Canada Proceedings (ASAC)
|Despite a growing interest in the import ance of technology management, relatively little research has addressed technology issu es from the persp ective of small and medium enterprises. This paper uses data from a national study of manufacturing firms to examine the factors associated with perceptions of the importance of technology. The results suggest that a variety of factors, such as innovation strategy, organizational restructuring, cu tbacks in capital investment, and human resource management practices are associated with res pondent perceptions of the importance of technology.

TC TO JOHN STUART MILL; 27 March 1835; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18350327-TC-JSM-01; CL 8:87-88.
Chelsea, Friday Morning [27 March 1835]—
My dear Mill,
That day at the India House I meant to settle with you about our little cash account, had not Sterling come in: yesterday I ought to have written; but was sickly, busy and incapable of being busy.
I am very loath to decline anything that would gratify you: but I find on the whole, and with all anxiety to avoid anything superfine in the matter, that I must abide by the original scheme. It is definite, gives me no doubt or reluctance; all beyond that is vague, incalculable, and hovers upon regions one would not wish to have any trade in. By it not only is the burden equalized among us, but diminished in absolute quantity; by the other scheme you would have a heavier share of it, but the whole were augmented rather, and my share not lightened. Let us be content then with the best we can do.
We are to be out on Sunday night and Tuesday night; not otherwise that I know of.
I have seen Wordsworth again, and find my former interpretation of him strengthened. He seems to me a most natural man (a mighty point in these days); and flows on there, delivering what is really in him, platitudes or wisdoms as the case may be. A really earthborn well, not an artificial jet d'eau [fountain]: let us be satisfied with the "day of small things."1
Ever faithfully Yours, /
T. Carlyle—

The second fatal fitness mistake is to spend too much time doing ab crunches in hopes of losing belly fat.
Your abs may be strong and developed even if you can't see definition because a layer of belly fat is covering them up. Seeing that amazing coveted 6-pack, takes amazing work.
Most of the fat around your belly is a result of your nutrition. Your exercise to reduce belly fat should include interval cardio training and strength training using super-sets with high intensity, and full body combination of exercises like squats, pull-ups (or assisted pull-ups if you can't do them) and push-ups (or knee push-ups for beginners).
Here are some examples of body-weight super-sets that require no equipment, no gym and no excuses! Keep up the pace, you will get both the aerobic benefit and the strength training benefit that will really burn calories, burn fat and increase your metabolism.
1) 30 seconds of body weight prisoner squats immediately followed by 30 seconds of push-ups, rest 60 seconds and repeat 2 times.
2) 30 seconds of alternating forward touch down lunges immediately followed by 30 seconds of mountain climbers, rest 60 seconds and repeat 2 times.
3) Finish with plank and side plank (20 second plank + 1- second side plank alternating sides up to 8 rounds)
View the slide show to see pictures of the exercises. If you like what you see, you may like the e-book where they came from!

An elderly Long Island woman was killed Wednesday afternoon when she suddenly crossed into oncoming traffic and crashed into a tree in Rocky Point, according to Suffolk County police.
The fatal crash occurred at 2:45 p.m. along County Road 21 – commonly referred to as Rocky Point-Yaphank Road – just south of Route 25A and not far from Rocky Point High School. Police say 87-year-old Francine Schenkel, of Ridge, was driving north in her 1997 Toyota when she allegedly crossed into the southbound lanes of traffic. Her car then allegedly continued off the roadway, traveled through a wooded area and then collided with a tree, according to a police news release.
Authorities said the car went up in flames after the collision. Firefighters and emergency crews from the Rocky Point Fire Department responded and extinguished the blaze. Schenkel, authorities said, was pronounced dead at the scene by a physician's assistant from the Suffolk County medical examiner's office. Attempts to reach her family members Thursday at a telephone number listed in public records were unsuccessful.
Det. Sgt. William Bundrick, of the Suffolk County Police Seventh Precinct, said detectives were still trying to piece together exactly what happened. He said witnesses were unsure what caused the woman to crash into the tree. "She apparently left the roadway on her own," he said. "We don't know if it was a medical emergency."
Bundrick said detectives were continuing to investigate the collision, though it was unclear if any criminality was suspected. Police have impounded Schenkel's car for a safety check as the investigation continues. The area surrounding the crash site remained closed for a majority of Wednesday afternoon and reopened late Wednesday evening. Anyone with information about the crash is asked to call Seventh Squad detectives at 631-852-8752 or call Suffolk County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS.

The game will be played for 39 and a half days instead of the typical 39. The first tribe is the returning players making up the yellow Galang tribe. The second tribe is new players to the game comprising the red Tadhana tribe. So the returning players and their loved ones will be playing against each other instead of with each other as they thought. Redemption Island will also return in this edition of Survivor. The tribes are comprised of individuals from all different backgrounds with the same ultimate goal: to be the Sole Survivor. This edition of Survivor was filmed in the Philippines. Survivor: Blood vs. Water premiered on September 18, 2013.

Update 5/16/14 6:30 a.m. (PST): The puppies are safe!!
It is hard to wrap the mind around the fact that beautiful, healthy puppies can be killed - but it happens, far too often.
According to Angels Among Us Pet Rescue, two Vizsla mix puppies are going to be killed on Friday morning - unless a local foster home can be found. The rescue agency stated:
We just got word that another rescue took the rest of this green eyes beautiful litter from the kill shelter and left these 2. They will be put down tomorrow. The white one has a broken or hurt leg and just lies there. I know he hurts. They are both so scared and depressed but will crawl up on your lap just to give kisses. It is heart wrenching! We need to get them to the emergency vet asap. What do we need to get them out of there?...We NEED funds desperately. We also need fosters who will foster puppies! We REALLY need puppy fosters to join our team so we can save lives.
The clock is ticking...time is not on the side of these pups. Please take a moment to network this information with the hopes that someone who is willing to open their heart, and their home, can be found before it is too late.
The rescue agency stated:
I want to see those beautiful green eyes smile and those kisses to be "thank you kisses". Please donate to "Visla brothers" at www.angelsrescue.org/donate and PLEASE fill out an application to be a puppy foster at www.angelsrescue.org and IF you are already an approved puppy foster and want to save some lives please email email@example.com and tell them you want to foster some puppies!!
Facebook thread here.
Note: Foster home offers must come from the Atlanta, Ga., area.

In May 2008, the California State Supreme Court ruled that gays in California must be able to legally marry, or it would violate the state's laws. 18,000 couples were married before the very public Prop 8 vote took that right from us. It was ruled that those 18,000 couples would be allowed to keep their legal marriages, but no more would be allowed in.
Since then, a series of exhausting trials have been our stony path back to marriage.
PoliGlot has a wonderful breakdown of Prop 8's journey so far. However, it is full of legalese.
Let me describe it for you in tarot cards.
Why Tarot? My good friend, and designer of Stay on Fountain, Tiffany Rose, once did a tarot reading on me. It was supposed to represent a timeline of my life. She was surprised to see that it was all "Swords" cards, leading to the finish, "The King of Cups."
Swords mean just that, battle. Strife, struggles, trials. The King of Cups of is a man of wisdom. Seems simple enough: whole lotta struggles and trials lead to wisdom. But the King of Cups is also tricky and mysterious. He is volatile and untrustworthy. The King of Cups is bipolar and can swing between rash anger and unmovable depression if he doesn't walk a careful, thoughtful and intelligent line.
Which is exactly how we are going to win marriage for all for good. It's why this endles, endless series of trials and appeals will pay dividends to ensure that when we do achieve Equality, it will be for keeps.
Or, failing that, we do a nasty citizen's vote again, and we take it back on their same shitty terms.
Tomorrow the Appeals Court rules on whether or not Prop 8 was indeed Unconstitutional. If the answer is NO, it was perfectly legal, our opponents all high five each other, we dance gay in the streets and then counter-appeal in the morning. If the answer is YES, it was illegal as shit, our opponents all harrumph, we dance gay in the streets and then wake up in the morning to find that our opponents have counter-appealed.
Either way, yes or no, this goes on to another court. But for a while, it will SEEM as if the fight is over.
Think of this as Season 5 of "Buffy." It ends with a gravestone, but we're not stupid. There's two more seasons still to go, and so Season 6 begins with a resurrection.
This counter-appeals court (aka Season 6) is called an en banc. What en banc means is that a full bench of appeals judges (that's 11 of those bad boys) will hear the WHOLE DAMN SHEBANG again, instead of in Season 5, where we only went in front of a panel of 3. A panel of 3 can never overrule another panel. Only an en banc can destroy them.
Like in Season 6 of "Buffy," the enemy was within. We are going to see, following tomorrow's decision, particularly if it is a loss for us, an attempt within the gay community to draft a citizen's vote in time for the November 2012 election. While there might be the votes and momentum to assure a win, it will be short-sighted. It will cripple the Prop 8 case by making it pointless. We need this trial to progress to the last season, because if we win all the marbles, it will set off a chain reaction that will poison pill every future citizen's vote that would attempt to take our rights away again.
This endurance test will then continue into Season 7, the last one, where the en banc's decision will be appealed a THIRD TIME into one of two outcomes– a super en banc, basically an en banc except there's more judges, or….
THE BIG BAD. The Supreme Court of the United States. 9 judges, no cameras, the final word.
The Supreme Court could also be Season 6, should the lawyers finagle it right, but I doubt it. The timeline of this is strange and unpredictable. It took us over a year just to get to the Appeals Court decision. The Supreme Court can deliberate in a week or forever. That's the timeline we're looking at: between a week and forever. Somewhere in there.
So, 10 AM Pacific Time, Tuesday, February 7th, 2012, watch with me. Let's take that next step towards the King of Cups with care, thought and intelligence.

"Traffic congestion is caused by vehicles, not by people in themselves."
— Jane Jacobs (The Death and Life of Great American Cities)
This is my second week of doing almost all of my traveling by bus, light rail, or bike. I thought this would be a harder lifestyle change to adapt to, but I hardly ever think about the Prius I sold. This is also the date when my car payment was usually due. It's like a weight off my shoulders not having to pay it.
I biked from Penn Station to Swann Park today. On paper, it seems like a hike, but I think it took about 15 minutes and wasn't difficult at all. Bicycling in traffic makes you hyper aware of your surroundings. Not only of cars, but buildings, people – everything around you. You're an active participant in the trip and each mile is more deliberate. Traveling at a slower rate of speed - a speed urban areas are designed for. Reaching the destination seems like an accomplishment, but maybe because this is still pretty new to me.
What also struck me today was the lack of street life on what should be active neighborhood blocks. People on the street are not only good for business, they're good for the health of neighborhoods. The first book I read when I decided to study urban planning was The Death and Life of Great American Cities (Modern Library Series) by Jane Jacobs. A lot of her ideas seem like common sense, but they are concepts which have been forgotten by planners and engineers during the past 50 years. One of Jacobs' fundamental concepts is "eyes on the street""
"Police are not the primary keepers of the peace on city streets and sidewalks. It would take thousands upon thousands of police officers to supplant the network of self-policing citizens."
Active streets not only make people feel safer, but actually make them safer. As social ills and urban decay overtook some Baltimore neighborhoods, residents felt less safe going to the park, walking to the store, or just hanging out on the steps. This wide-spread abandonment of the street (which also coincided with an increase in vacant structures) created an even worse situation where criminals acted without witness, thereby perpetuating the cycle of neighborhood decline. This Environmental design theories which tried to follow Jacobs' concepts left out crucial elements – a mix of land uses and a focus on public spaces.
This is to say nothing of the fundamental cultural and political changes in the U.S. between 1920 and 1970 which overwhelming favored the automobile and its related infrastructure.
But Baltimore already has the density, street network, and mix of uses to support better street life. There needs to be a coordinated effort to bring people back outside. And not in cars. This means complete streets, well designed public spaces and parks, outdoor seating, and aggressive programming for under-utilized or new spaces. This is especially important for Swann Park which just re-opened after a 2 year environmental remediation; there should be positive buzz about this place. Not only for the obvious reasons, but Swann Park will also be a lot of people's introduction to the Middle Branch.
Kevin Lynch, a contemporary of Jacobs, also has some theories on street life I'll discuss in a future post.

College Hockey:A look at how the conferences shape up for 2013-14 (today, anyway)
We got a request via email the other day to publish what the conference structure will look like in 2013-14, when the Big Ten and National Collegiate Hockey Conference begin play. The situation is still fluid, of course, but let's take a look at what we have at the moment.
One caveat: I left the CCHA as it stands even though you have to think the likelihood that the league exists in 2013-14 is smaller than small. I did that because I don't want to assume anything with the three CCHA teams that have yet to announce their intention. (We all know that Notre Dame won't be there, but bear with me.)
So here it is:
ATLANTIC HOCKEY (12 teams, unchanged)
Air Force *
American International #
Army *
Bentley #
Canisius *
Connecticut *
Holy Cross *
Mercyhurst #
Niagara *
Rochester Institute of Technology ^
Robert Morris *
Sacred Heart *
BIG TEN (6 teams, new)
Michigan (from CCHA) *
Michigan State (from CCHA) *
Minnesota (from WCHA) *
Ohio State (from CCHA) *
Penn State (from independent) *
Wisconsin (from WCHA) *
CCHA (3 teams, loses 8)
Bowling Green *
Notre Dame *
Western Michigan *
ECAC HOCKEY (12 teams, unchanged)
Brown *
Clarkson ^
Colgate *
Cornell *
Dartmouth *
Harvard *
Princeton *
Quinnipiac *
Rensselaer ^
St. Lawrence ^
Union ^
Yale *
HOCKEY EAST (10 teams, unchanged)
Boston College *
Boston University *
Maine *
Massachusetts *
Massachusetts-Lowell #
Merrimack #
New Hampshire *
Northeastern *
Providence *
Vermont *
NCHC (6 teams, new)
Colorado College (from WCHA) ^
Denver (from WCHA) *
Miami (from CCHA) *
Minnesota-Duluth (from WCHA) #
Nebraska-Omaha (from WCHA) *
North Dakota (from WCHA) *
WCHA (9 teams, loses 7, adds 4)
Alaska (from CCHA) #
Alaska-Anchorage #
Bemidji State #
Ferris State (from CCHA) #
Lake Superior State (from CCHA) #
Michigan Tech #
Minnesota State #
Northern Michigan (from CCHA) #
St. Cloud State #
INDEPENDENT (1 team)
Alabama-Huntsville #
* – Schools at Division I level in all sports (38, 64 percent)
# – Schools at Division II level in most sports but Division I for hockey (15, 25 percent)
^ – Schools at Division III level in most sports but Division I for hockey (6, 10 percent)
Something jumped out to me in compiling the NCAA divisions for the schools, and that's the remarkable change in structure that the WCHA is facing. As it stands today, it has five Division I teams, six Division II teams and one Division III team. All nine of the schools that have to date confirmed their place in the WCHA of the future are Division II members that play Division I men's hockey. My friend Shane Frederick of the Mankato Free Press wrote about that here, and it's pointed out that the WCHA needs Division I members Bowling Green or Western Michigan to keep its vote at the Division I table.
There's no sense using concrete terms yet, though. This summer is bound to give us another twist or two.

A long shot, but has anyone here suffered from De Quervain's tendonitis? It's inflammation of a wrist tendon that is usually due to overuse of the thumb. In my case I am guessing it is from typing, since I do a lot of it at work (will be switching to dictation software). It's very mild right now, only occurring when invert the wrist inwards and on extension as well. But it has limited my riding.
I've spoke to one orthopedic surgeon who assures me complete recovery after surgery.

Okay, to elaborate on that. My wife is constantly nagging, complaining, swearing, making a scene, etc.. about the fact that I won't always lock up my pistol when I am at home. We have a gun safe, it is one of those biometric ones that scan your fingerprint. But often I won't use it.
The problem is I'm afraid that if somebody breaks in at night I won't be able to get my gun in time to defend our family. (read my other post about my home business to know why I think I'm at higher risk than the average Joe) Even with the biometric safe, it takes several seconds to open it and if I'm in a rush I will almost always have to run my finger two or three times before it accepts it and opens. The problem is, even though we have an alarm system, I most likely wouldn't be aware of a break in until after the crooks are already inside the house. So I like having at least one loaded gun I can reach in a hurry.
Okay, so that is my side of the story. My wife's concern is about our 8 year old daughter. What if she were to get one of the guns and accidentally shoot herself with it, or somebody else? The law even holds us liable if that were to happen because we failed to secure our firearms from a child.
Well. Here's my take on this.
- First of all, she'd have to sneak into the bedroom and night and grab the gun while I'm sleeping.
- Second of all, I still don't leave my guns chambered (even though many people here suggest that I should) I also know from experience that my daughter does not have the physical strength to rack ANY of my guns. When teaching her how to use the guns, she has tried each one several times and she cannot pull the slide back. So in theory, even if she were to get the gun, she could play around with it and it might as well be unloaded because she'd never be able to chamber a round.
- Lastly, she is sort of afraid of guns. I taught her how to load bullets, chamber a round (with my help) check the chamber for rounds, all of the usual safety stuff, etc. She is okay with that. But when I take her to the range, she will not fire them. She is scared of the loud noises of all of the other guns and she won't do it. (much to my disappointment) So unlike many kids who play with their parents' guns, my daughter has had some exposure, she understands how they work, and has a lot of respect and fear of the power they have. So I don't really think she'd be the type to secretly go play with a gun anyway.
So anyway.. there you have it. Any suggestions on how to make my wife feel better about the situation without compromising my ability to quickly respond if I have an intruder? Oh - one last thing. I have tried other gun-safes and personally I think they all take too long to open. The ones where you type the code in take just as long or longer to open.

|This study is an attempt to look at the impact of international norms on the criminal justice administration in India. It has been confined to the criminal justice administration since it is here that the concept of sovereignty is affected the most. The study is intended to give a fair idea as to the position India holds in the matter of implementation of international norms in the area of criminal justice administration and the areas that require urgent attention. The study suggests that the country's system is on the right track towards the implementation of the international norms. The position of law in India and the requirements under international norms with respect to criminal justice administration have been studied by considering the same at three stages – pre trial, trial and post trial stages. The question as to whether they comply with the international standards and the approaches of the court has been inquired into this study
|The study is a close scrutiny of the process of investigation of offences in India along with an analysis of powers and functions of the investigating agency. The offences, which are prejudicial to sovereignty, integrity and security of the nation or to its friendly relations with foreign states, are generally called the offences against national security. Offences against national security being prejudicial to the very existence of the nation and its legal system, is a heinous and terrible one. As early as 1971 the Law Commission of India had pointed out the need of treating the offences relating to national security and their perpetrators on a totally different procedural footing. The recommendation that, all the offences coming under the said category ought to be brought under the purview of a single enactment so as to confront such offences effectively. The discrepancies in and inadequacies of the criminal justice system in India as much as they are related to the investigations of the offences against national security are examined and the reforms are also suggested. The quality of criminal justice is closely linked with the caliber of the prosecution system and many of the acquittals in courts can be ascribed not only to poor investigations but also to poor quality of prosecution.
|School of Legal Studies, Cochin University of Science & Technology
|The object of every law is to render justice. But sometimes the strict implementation of low may result in injustice. Under such circumstances equity will step in to prevent the injustice. Estoppel is one such concept evolved by equity for rendering justice even deviating from strict legal principles. This study is an analysis of the essence of the principle of estoppel, its scope, circumstances and application. The related principles known as estoppel by record, estoppel by deed, estoppel by representation, promissory estoppel, estoppel against public authority is also considered. Estoppel, originated from the sense of justice, equity and good consciousness has since developed through various judicial pronouncements. Further section 115 of the Evidence Act has statutorily recognized and laid down the principles of estoppel. But Section 115 of the Evidence Act or any other statute does not cover the modern development of estoppel in the form of promissory estoppel.
|Human rights are the basic rights of every individual against the state or any other public authority as a member of the human family irrespective of any other consideration. Thus every individual of the society has the inherent right to be treated with dignity in all situations including arrest and keeping in custody by the police. Rights of an individual in police custody are protected basically by the Indian Constitution and by various other laws like Code of Criminal Procedure, Evidence Act, Indian Penal Code and Protection of Human Rights Act. The term `custody' is defined neither in procedural nor in substantive laws. The word custody means protective care. The expression `police custody' as used in sec. 27 of Evidence Act does not necessarily mean formal arrest. In India with special reference to Kerala and evolution and development of the concept of human rights and various kinds of human rights violations in police custody in different stages of history. Human rights activists and various voluntary organisations reveals that there are so many factors contributing towards the causes of violations of human rights by police. Sociological causes like ambivalent outlook of the society with respect to the use of third degree methods by the police, economic causes like meager salary and inadequate living conditions, rampant corruption in police service, unnecessary political interference in the crime investigation, work load of police personnel without any time limit and periodic holidays, unnecessary pressure from superior police officers and the general public for speedy detection causing great mental strain to the investigating officers, defective system of recruitment and training, imperfect system of investigation and lack of public co-operation are some of the factors identified in the field survey towards the causes of violations of human rights in police custody.
