College Hockey:Colorado College Tops Minnesota-Duluth
Vlassopoulos Keys CC Win
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Coming into tonight's contest, Colorado College, Minnesota-Duluth and Denver were in a three way tie for second place in the WCHA. At the end of the night, CC moved past Duluth and Denver into a tie with Michigan Tech for first place in the conference. Andreas Vlassopoulos and his CC linemates were too much for the Bulldogs, as Vlassopoulos scored his first goal of the season and added two assists to propel the Tigers past UMD 5-3. Chad Rau had the game-winner for CC.
Tigers' freshman goaltender Richard Bachman made 24 saves to improve his record to 4-1-0, while Duluth's Jordan Fulton had a goal and an assist. Alex Stalock made 25 saves for the Bulldogs but fell to 4-2-1.
The contest began with a penalty-free seven minutes and some solid back-checking by both teams. The best chance for Duluth to grab the lead came nine minutes in when the Bulldogs' Jordan Fulton and Justin Fontaine each had a close-range shot on Bachman, but neither could put the puck past him.
CC got on the board first when Vlassopoulos rifled a Derek Patrosso feed past Stalock at 14:07 of the first period. Vlassopoulos known by his teammates as "Dre," along with Patrosso and Bill Sweatt, combined to score two goals and five assists on the evening.
"They've probably been our top line the last three or four games in a lot of different areas," said CC coach Scott Owens. "That line has good chemistry, they're in sync and now they're starting to get a little bit of payoff for their hard work."
Duluth returned the favor moments after Bulldogs' defenseman Trent Palm was put in the box. Following a CC turnover in the Bulldog zone, Nick Kemp sent a last-second pass near the right hash mark to Matt McKnight who one-timed it past a confused Bachman.
In the second, CC grabbed a 2-1 lead at 5:28 on a power-play goal by freshman forward Stephen Schultz. The fourth line winger fired a deceptive shot from the point where it looked like the puck changed direction and skipped by Stalock. The play was reviewed for a potential high stick, and after about two minutes the goal stood and CC led 2-1.
The Tigers padded their lead three minutes later on a tally by Patrosso. Sweatt sent a turnaround pass to Vlassopoulos who found a streaking Patrosso alone in the slot where he shot a hard one-timer into the back of the net, making it 3-1 CC.
"These past couple of weeks we've been working hard in practice and I think we are at a point right now where we know where each other are without looking," said Vlassopoulos. "We're clicking right now."
With things looking a bit bleak, UMD got the lead down to one off a CC miscue. The Bulldogs forechecked in the CC zone and Fulton corralled the puck off the back wall, turned and tucked in near the right post past Bachman.
Less than two minutes later, CC's Chad Rau made it 4-2 Tigers. Rau gathered the puck in the neutral zone untouched, skated alone on a breakaway into the Duluth zone and beat a sliding Stalock low glove side.
"I thought the fourth goal was the turning point in the contest," said Duluth coach Scott Sandelin. "After our second goal we started pressing a bit and made some bad decisions. They (CC) made some good plays and made us pay."
The scoring didn't end there for the Tigers. Fourth line center Brian McMillin scored an unassisted short-handed goal at 19:06 of the second period. McMillin took a shot close to the back of the net that caromed off of Stalock and across the goal line.
Duluth began the third period with a rocky start, surrendering two point-blank chances to Scott McCulloch and Tyler Johnson, respectively, but Stalock stood tall for the Bulldogs and his counterparts rewarded him with a quick goal by Fontaine at 2:14. Fulton and Josh Meyers each had an assist on the tally.
After a few minutes of dump and chase hockey and a sloppy play in the Duluth zone, CC tried to put the game away, but took one too many hits out on the opposition. Patrosso skated after Duluth defenseman Jason Garrison only to hit him from behind. Patrosso received a five-minute major penalty and a game misconduct. The Bulldogs put a few shots together on the ensuing power play, but nothing came from close range.
The Tigers killed off the long penalty kill, and even drew subsequent penalties on Palm and Meyers. CC failed to score on the abbreviated power play or the 5-minute major to Meyers.
Duluth then had a small window late in the period to cut the lead to one, but Bachman made two keys saves, one on a penalty kill and one with the Bulldogs skating with Stalock on the bench for the sixth attacker.
Minnesota-Duluth and Colorado College finish up their series Saturday, Nov. 10 at the Colorado Springs World Arena. Game time is 7:07.

A Long Island doctor and his wife were brought into court Thursday in handcuffs and are now facing new criminal charges after he was allegedly caught selling painkiller prescriptions for cash while his wife was cooking the books of the medical practice, the state attorney general's office said.
Dr. Anand Persaud, 45, pleaded not guilty to charges of criminal sale of a prescription for a controlled substance, grand larceny, scheme to defraud, criminal tax fraud and offering a false instrument for filing. He was released on a previously posted $500,000 bond during the court appearance. The Baldwin resident declined to comment as he rushed out of the Nassau County Court.
Prosecutors said Persaud was running a "cash-for-controlled-substance-prescription scam," in which he would charge pain management patients – many of whom were drug addicts – $250 to $300 for an office visit that included a prescription for a controlled substance – often oxycodone. According to the attorney general's office, Persaud would only spend a few minutes with the patients and wouldn't ask them about their need for the medication and would not conduct tests or physical examinations during their visits. He then allegedly would fail to submit claims to the patient's insurance companies, "in order to avoid detection by authorities," prosecutors said.
In court papers, the AG's office alleges Persaud, his wife and their company also failed to report the cash payments on their tax returns. The doctor's wife, Bibi Shazeeda Persaud, 42, was arraigned beside her husband Thursday before Acting State Supreme Court Judge Phillip Grella on charges of criminal tax fraud and offering a false instrument for filing. She was released without bail after surrendering her passport and wouldn't speak to reporters as she left the courtroom with her husband and other relatives.
"For a doctor, a trusted licensed professional, to violate his professional duties and use his position to traffic in narcotics is unconscionable," New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said. "That he and his wife failed to report their total income is also a crime. My office will seek to keep New York patients safe from rogue doctors and protect our tax dollars." The Persauds are due back in court later this month.

Casino Club
If you want name and credibility, not many online casinos can top Casino Club. This reputable online casino has bagged the 'Casino of the Year' award for five consecutive times from the international casino magazine 'Roulette.' Yes, there are other award-giving bodies around and some casinos bag such awards years in a row, too, but in the case of Casino Club, it's the magazine readers themselves (obviously casino aficionados) who have chosen to bestow the honor on Casino Club. You know what they say, trust other players to know.
Reputation Built on Fair Play
This casino has been built on the principle of fair play. Its operator is a businessman who knows the value of loyal customers and players. Thus, Casino Club rewards loyal members with generous loyalty bonuses. Casino Club is also solidly behind the Interactive Gaming Council's standards for best online gaming practices. Furthermore, transparency is apparently high up on their list of priorities; their latest audit is available on the site, open to the interested public.
In fact, if you need more convincing, you can play for free at Casino Club – absolutely no strings attached – to 'test the tables,' so to speak. Even when playing free games, you can chat with other casino players who can tell you why they like Casino Club. You know that the £100 bonus at signup is a good inducement to sign up, but why do members keep coming back?
Perhaps it's the variety pf games available – craps, roulette, blackjack, poker, and all the others that a regular player usually wants to play online. Perhaps it's the security of the site; aside from your username and password, you will be provided a security code for enhanced security protection. Maybe, it's the fact that Casino Club offers great support and even provides toll free numbers for residents of various European countries and a number for residents of other countries.
Great Ambiance
To be a club member in the old days was to be one of the elite, a member of an exclusive society – the old boys club, you can say. Though Casino Club is very much open to anyone who wishes to play, though, the old-world elegance and luxury for which old clubs were well known has been very much retained in the Casino Club.
The gaming environment is redolent with old-world charm reminiscent of the days when lords and ladies ruled the realm. You can't help but feel indulgent in the 'plush and hush' atmosphere present in Casino Club's gaming rooms.
Old-world ambience, notwithstanding, the Casino Club's software is modern, easy to use, simple to install, and gentle on the ears and eyes. With all these going for Casino Club, it's no wonder that casino players worldwide think Casino Club deserves to be best casino, not once but five times now.

Here's a site with a bit different game offer from what I usually find. They use two popular software providers, for instant and downloadable access, sadly no mobile site version. They have a clear and sound 10€ No Deposit Bonus, but only eligible for a few EU countries, so most of the players won't be able to try it. There is a regular sign up bonus (a 100% bonus up to 250€ with a 30xb and deposit as wagering requirement). Again, some countries are not eligible for this bonus, and you should carefully check the terms. A bit confusing, but I did get to check that with the support, and got everything cleared in a few seconds. The support team is well mannered and fast, one of the best I have contacted.
There are quite a few active promotions going on at all times, and it is a good thing to check the Promotions page first, since you don't want to miss a chance to get some extra cash.
Casino Club is based on the BOSS software, the other Casino I know offering games from this software is Sportingbet. The games are quite unique.
I'm playing at Casino Club now for more than a year and I had some great moments there. For the first time I heard about Casino Club was at a forum, and they were talking about free spins there. So I registered and claimed some free spins, after 3 or 4 days then I won some little money with the free spins they were offering and went to the game money miner. Made there a couple spins and got with my last 0.25€ spin five of the red wearing guys, it paid me something about 250€. I went to the cashier and requested a payout to my Skrill account, without making a deposit before. I was quite surprised when I received an email from Skrill about receiving money from Casino club. They neither requested documents nor a deposit for verification purposes.
This was a beginning of a good relationship between me and this casino. I've made a plenty of deposits and payouts there without having any problems. Usually I receive money in 3 or 4 hours, which is great compared to a lot other online casinos.
Here and there they are releasing some new slots. My favourite slot is The Wild Life, which can pay like crazy if you hit the free spins.
They are offering a lot new bonuses for existing players. Like every month a 100% bonus up to 200€. And the best thing about this is that you don't need to turnover your money if you for example hit very big with having bonus money attached to your balance you can even so request a payout only excluding the bonus amount that you receive at your deposit. I made a deposit of 20€ and received 20€ bonus, made then a couple of spins, hit big and was able to withdraw all my winnings minus the bonus amount of 20€. I hope that someday also many other casinos will offer something great like this.
But before playing there you should take a look at their excluded countries list, it's not very short.
Casino Club is really nice one , since they offer different games with different software ( Boss Media). Another one I tried with the same platform is Sunset Slots Casino, which is quite similar to Casino Club. But one main thing between them, Casino Club offering free spins every month, even if You never deposited at site, Sunset slots offering only after deposit. First impression was great, when I was playing my free spins on game Hells Bells. 27 way slot could pay really great if You hit all lines filled up. Another great game is Demonio with fixed 5 lines and wild feature.
The luck was on my side and after wagering free spins wins, requested the withdrawal of 50€. Verification process was easy and fast and I got my money without deposit in 2 days. Support are polite and friendly also. Will recommend this to my friends.
Games are realy good here, you have nice chance to win jackpot because almoste every slot game has it. Check pay table when you start playing, some of slots requires max bet to hit jackpot, others are reachable with only few pennies. They have nice promotions and free spins every month.
Playing here for 3 years and everythink is ok. Support is nice, withdrawal are processed every business day and you don't need any verification document for small amounts. According to their terms, documents are requested for withdrawal of 2.000 eur or more.
Claimed a bonus from this casino.
I made a deposit once and lost very quickly. I'm not impressed by the games they offer. The good thing is that they often give free spins to their players. Not a bad place, but do not expecting big profits.
casino club is known for years as a good stable boss media casino and they offer very good offers with free spins and more this site is trusted and support is helpful
One of my favorite casino. Yes, their software not so popular, but at least they process withdrawals within few hours, and usually give out some freespins. Awesome casino, i rated them with 5 stars.
I like casino club a lot they use bossmedia software which not many sites use at the moment online, but it's quite uniqe and enjoyable, they have great games with good payouts and I like them, cashouts here are to most popular methods and it's easy to withdraw, very good site 4 stars
Playing online casino where I live is still illegal, it is probably the reason why I cant play at this casino anymore, anymore you ask? yes, I was a member of this casino a few years ago and played here quite often. the games looked old but I had a great time playing the games. This casino has a lot freeroll tournament where you can win a small amount of money, it´s free. Also here ends my journey at this casino :)
half bad half good..
good = easy to access especially slots games
bad = doesnt have much promotion offer
and it takes to long too waited your withdrawal money! e-wallets - takes 1 -4 days???
Loving the free spins every day :)
I joined here ,because they were giving 10 euros free chip for new members.I really dont trust casinos ,who are giving away so much free spins every month,exactly 180 -200 free spins every month,I dont think I will become theirs depositor.
Yes , i think that its not normal. that casino are giving away so many free spins . But there was not any problem to get no deposite bonus for new players. But like always no luck on my side. But this casino have nice homepage, easy to find games and all info. 4 stars from me.
on top of that welcome bonus they are giving regular free spin in client from time to time to spend on their games ( cashable )
Registered in this casino about 2 weeks ago . Made deposit and got great 100% match bonus . Played about 5 h to rollover my bonus. Then I made a withdrawal, but waited money about 3 days and gave up, I canceled payout and lost all money. I hate that you can make deposits in 10 mins but withdrawal takes 1 week. 2 stars from me.
back in a day i use to hate boss media software but i am use to it now and what more can i say than: wonderful slots. it´s different, of course but they are good and they got potential as well and casino club is the most trustable casino that i know and i know a lot ;) try a tenner and use one of the nice bonus offers they got. enjoy. 4,5 stars
I'm not the biggest fan of the softwares they have, but recently I signed up there and had a great time. Made a 30€ deposit without any bonus, played for a couple of hours with low bets and reached a balance of 100€ and applied for withdrawal. It took a couple of days but still smoothly came to my ewallet. Decent casino.
this is a very nice casino, good slots with high payouts when make a small bet.
I have won a jackpot from 834 euro with a 010euro bet.
the support is very friendly, the casino makes many specials for the players.
I can recommend to everybody to try their luck here.
I like the tournaments but there are too little player who plays there and hense too little players who plays the tournaments. Every sonday there is a free tournament too which is ok. Unfortunately for this casino I enjoy only the free spins now and then, means two times a week.
Its seems to be very difficult to win here. I could not play more than 5 minutes with my first deposit and it was the same with the second deposit (and I did not play more than 50 cents per bet). Really, i cant recommend this site... But of course, it's just my experience. Good luck if you deposit here.
My review for casinoclub: I registered and deposited 20€ there but didnt wanted the bonus and deleted the bonus, because i wanted to test there roulette and blackjack games, because in many german forums users said its one of the best casino for table games, i tryed them with some bets and lost quickly my deposit, soon after that i deposited another 50€ with neteller, lost in 2 hours , i was on 300€ but didnt withdrawl -.-... slots are not that good in my opinion, bad graphics etc... They also give freespins nearly everday, but i dont use them anymore becouse they are only 1 or max. 3 lines, why they make this? you cannot win with this, you win max. 20 cents... But 1 time i got freespins with 1 line and won 25 cents from them, and after the freegames ended, i had 25 cents in my account and made 1 spin on same slot with min. stke 25 cents and i couldnt belive it but got 5 of a kind of the maximum symbols and won 100€ !!!
I wanted to withdrawl but it was weekend and they said will get it on monday but i didnt wanted to wait and lost everything playing blackjack ;D
Casino Club offers very different and unusual games that most players are used to but the slots are very entertaining, the casino offers its loyal players weekly no deposit free spins but unfortunately South Africa is restricted from claiming them along with no deposit welcome spins but we are able to play here but due to the casino being tight with the bonuses for SA players it has prevented me from depositing any kind of decent cash here and instead only did one of minimum to purely just give these unique games a spin , the site has had a mobile version in development for some time now and still yet to produce one but perhaps 2016 will be the year for big things
A very reliable and generous Casino in my opinion cuz they frequently send promotion mails to me with free offers. They don't have the greatest game Collection but i do like their games and had some fun Sessions there. Withdrawals not the quickest but always received.
Casino Club is something really different and unique. I bookmarked their casino after i lost there no deposit bonus but never have made deposit after that. But still thinking about that. I have no expierence on these games and thats why i dont have great winning storie and when i dont have stories casino looks risky to me:) People at the forums has completely diferent opinions about them. Some of the says that it's greta and they are giving very often portiosn of free spins but some of them says that these free spins always not with all lines in the games
But i think i will try it finally one day because in this life you need to try everything:).
Offer free spins but only 3 or 5 lines. Some Times they have spins worth 3€ but not often. When you deposit more you get more lines.
Thats ok, perhaps you are lucky. Like their roulette. Very easy to handle great functions.
They have roulette and blackjack tournaments too.
I Love casino club, fast cashout, perfect support good offers, Freespins for active user. Nice games and fast cashout
3 Stars for Casino CLub , very solid Casino , they have multi-language options and extra visual graphics. They have nice selection of games , but of the other side they have a lot of rules what is very boring.

"The Hamiltons are a musical project put together by Robert Hamilton as an outlet to feature original songs that were written by, and with the late great Cranford Hamilton Nix. The music takes us back to a time when music was fun, exciting, raw & straightforward; no gimmicks, no costumes, no clowns, no bullshit. Electric and acoustic songs about real life, real heart-brake and real emotions wrapped up in sing-a-long melodies that harken back to when music was magical and authentic."
How would you describe your music?
Straight forward Old-School Retro Rock... Rock n Roll the Way It Was Meant To Be!
Your story is unique; tell us about your early years with your best friend Cranford:
Cranford came to me out of the blue one day and told me that I was a born rock star, and that he was going to teach me music because he needed a singer/front man like Mick Jagger for his band, he was putting together to become the next Rolling Stones. He was very patient with me and showed me how simple chords and good melodies along with clever lyrics (that actually had some meaning) could become great songs that would stand the test of time.
What was the turning point in your life that made you pick up music where you left off years ago with Cranford?
After he passed, I had lunch with his father, Ford Sr., and he asked me to record his son's music; he wanted to play on the songs (He was a famous banjo player in his own right. He's in the Rockabilly Hall Of fame.) I promised him that I would do it, but only when the timing was right; it took me a few years after that. His father died in October of 2012 and I felt a terrible sense of guilt but still wasn't ready. In 2013, my old band LIXX opened for Grand Funk Railroad in front of over 10,000 people on the Detroit Riverfront, that is when I realized that I owed it to my best friend, mentor and long-lost brother to bring his music back to life in a way that would make him not only proud, but also give him his place in American music history along side of the greats like Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Rick Ocasek and Tom Petty. The time was now right to bring his music back to where it came from, the source of light creation.
It was at this almost EXACT same time my other best friend Shane approached me about going to our mutual friend Jesse's studio and recording a couple of Cranford's songs so I would have them before I quit music. Shane somehow had the consciousness to know that I needed to record some of the songs that made me the person for whom I truly am, a true musician. It was then that Shane reminded me of Bobby Black for whom played with Cranford and had the same kind of style only Bobby was more refined as a player. The band was initially supposed to be just an EP to help me realize a long-time goal as I was finally going to quit music. Well, a power greater than us all had other ideas, and a killer rock n roll band was born. We recorded our debut CD; In Cranford We Trust, in the period of just two weeks, having learned the songs on the spot while recording them! Jesse then decided that he was going to play drums. He was having so much fun with the songs and we have since added Paul on bass, we have a musical force to be reckoned with called: The Hamiltons.
How have you evolved personally and musically since you began your journey?
Musically I have "come home" or back to where I started after playing other people's music for so many years but only now I am mature, and I have the knowledge to use my strengths weaknesses to my advantage and I'm also keen to the many liars and thieves that permeate not only the music business but in all walks of life on this earth. I am now ready for the challenge as well as with the right players to make this dream a reality.
Personally, I have become a very spiritual person, understanding the true meaning of life, love and the greater good of all thru my studious reading of The Bible, Daily Prayers Meditations, as well as participating in Ancient Shamanic Ceremonies Rituals in Peru. Now I even have an actual Tipi in my backyard that I use regularly three out of four seasons a year, to hold drum circles, meditations and of course prayer sessions. If you fear God, TRULY follow the Ten Commandments, eat right, pray, meditate and daily spend time in nature… you will live a better life. So that is why NOW is the time for The Hamiltons as opposed to saying ten years ago when I bought into the fallacy that happiness was materially gained. Its NOT, happiness is internal and less is always more. Most Americans think it's the other way around which is why we are a very sick and diseased culture physically, mentally spiritually.
How do you measure success?
Success to me means being capable to do what you love in life while bringing no harm to others. Being able to help out other people and bring some joy to their lives has a longer-lasting effect in your heart and soul than counting some bank statement worrying about how many zeros are attached at the end. Try a random act of kindness and see how that makes you feel inside!
What has being an independent artist taught you?
It has reinforced to me what I already know thanks to my dearly departed mother and what she instilled in me, to always follow your dream but to also have a plan B as it will help get you to your dream and to NEVER EVER GIVE UP. Being an independent artist has helped me stay true to my real goals as a musician and stay the artist whom I want to be with NO compromise. (I don't have to make some phony music to "please some dude in a 3 piece suit" who only loves money.) The Harder you work towards your goal, the more likely that you will succeed on some level and don't forget to stop and smell the roses along the way for this life is short. Enjoy The Ride people… we are only here once.
What is the best advice you can give to another Indie Artist?
Make sure that you are going to be happy with your music 5, 10 20 years hereafter. DO NOT cut corners, even if it means having to delay what you love to do. Do everything above board, be honest, have class and stay persistent to your dream. Please, also research everyone that comes knocking on your door saying they "can help you" before shelling out your hard earned money. I have lost THOUSANDS of dollars blindly trusting people that supposedly had stellar reputations in the business.
Are you currently performing and touring?
We have been performing around the southeast Michigan as we are from Detroit. We have some east coast shows lined up as well as a couple in Los Angeles later this spring, but are actively seeking a reputable booking agent management team to get us on the road to coincide with the release of our second CD, Angels In Love.
How is the music industry in your area?
It's very fractured and to be honest its dog eats dog. Not much loyalty and everyone's out for themselves really. There is no sense of community as there are seeds of different clicks around the city. There are very few decent shows to get on and the ones that do exist are mostly given to the same tired bands for whom don't promote or even draw very well but they know this guy or that guy etc.
What is in store for 2014?
This is the year that CHANGES EVERYTHING as far as myself goes personally. Many people for whom have never taken me seriously as an artist because I'm a successful business man and a responsible father are going to stand up and take notice as The Hamiltons are not only going to be the BIGGEST AND THE BEST in Detroit, we then are going to become a national and global. We have the best musicians; this band is FUN live; we appeal to almost all the demographic of music fans. Our songs are catchy; most of all we are one band that will NEVER take anything or anyone for granted as we have come for the correct reasons at the correct time, playing the kind of music that people will love for years to come. As one of our songs states: We're in love with rock n roll!

When Socialist Republican Rick Santorum said he was OK with banning birth control and spent a week railing on how it's evil, it did damage to the GOP. The Democrats used his comments in ad after ad that the GOP wants to ban contraceptives. It worked brilliantly and many single women are terrified of the Republican party. In a bold move to rebuke this line of attack, Gov. Bobby Jindal is proposing that Birth Control be sold over the counter.
Gov. Bobby Jindal said oral contraceptives should be available over-the-counter in a Thursday evening op-ed for the Wall Street Journal. The self-described "unapologetic pro-life Republican" governor of Louisiana said this would lower health-care costs, prevent government intrusion into citizens' lives and fight the influence of big pharmaceutical companies.
"As a conservative Republican, I believe that we have been stupid to let the Democrats demagogue the contraceptives issue and pretend, during debates about health-care insurance, that Republicans are somehow against birth control," Jindal said in the op-ed.
Jindal cited a December committee opinion from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists which came out in favor of over-the-counter access to the pill "to improve contraceptive access and use and possibly decrease unintended pregnancy rates."
This is actually a very Conservative move on Bobby Jindal's part. He is embracing Free Market concepts to birth control. I am of the opinion that many prescription drugs should be over the counter. Just put a warning and let consumers decide. By advocating that Birth Control pills be sold over the counter, Jindal takes an issue away from the left and promotes Free Market values.

House hopeful Miller touts importance of cooperation between business, education sectors
The candidate backs vouchers and thinks cooperation between business and education is important.
ELKHART — Indiana House hopeful Doug Miller backs educational vouchers and says education would be a priority for him as a lawmaker.
"Like every parent, I have always wanted what was best for my children. I don't ever recall, however, a time when the government knew my kids better than my wife and me," the Republican said in a statement Thursday, March 6. "I am a strong advocate for choice and I want all Hoosiers to be able to use their hard-earned tax dollars to fund the educational process as they see fit."
The state's educational voucher program, approved in 2010, lets parents of eligible children apply state funds that would've gone to public schools toward tuition for the children at private schools instead. Some critics worry vouchers hamper public schools.
Miller, one of three Republicans vying for the District 48 post in the Indiana House, also touted the importance of cooperation between the business and education sectors, with the aim of luring new business to the state and encouraging Hoosier kids to remain in Indiana when they finish school.
"As a parent and grandparent, I recognize the importance of young Hoosiers being able to stay near their families and to continue to call Indiana home. That will only happen if leaders in economic development and education pursue similar goals," Miller said. "The key is to have our graduates ready with the necessary skills to entice business and industry to locate here."
Miller, who runs a home construction business, said he recently met with area school superintendents to hear their ideas. Aside from the state's economy, the Miller press release said, education would be his top priority.
Rep. Tim Neese holds the District 48 spot, but he's not seeking re-election.

With this gift of nature, Nature Conservancy magazine arrives all year long. Join
Ice Mountain, a multigenerational treasure to the people of Hampshire County, West Virginia, acquired national stature today as it was formally dedicated a National Natural Landmark.
While admirers of natural and human history looked on, the National Park Service conferred the honor and presented a commemorative plaque to The Nature Conservancy, the private conservation organization which has protected the mountain's namesake ice vents and vistas since 1989.
"Ice Mountain has been designated a National Natural Landmark by the Secretary of the Interior because it contains unique geological and biological features that contribute to the understanding of our nation's natural heritage," said Beth Johnson, Deputy Associate Director for Natural Resources Stewardship and Science of the National Park Service.
Ice Mountain, with a relatively low elevation profile of about 1,500 feet, earned its name – and its landmark designation – by virtue of the refrigeration effect that takes place inside its talus—a sloping mass of boulders at the foot of the mountain. During the winter, dense, cold air sinks deep into the talus, and ice masses form inside. As the weather warms, the cooler air flows out of vents among the rocks at the bottom of the slope.
As a result of this year-round natural air conditioning, the rocky slopes at the mountain's base support many plant species normally found in much colder regions or at much higher elevations.
"We're in debt to the many people who have helped to protect Ice Mountain over the years," said Rodney Bartgis, state director of The Nature Conservancy in West Virginia. "First the people of North River Mills and Hampshire County who have known for generations that Ice Mountain is special. The Conservancy's supporters, who provided the resources to protect this land. And to our volunteers who help us maintain it and keep the story of the mountain alive through countless guided tours."
Ice Mountain is West Virginia's 14th National Natural Landmark and one of 593 sites nationwide recognized by the National Park Service for such attributes as rarity, diversity, and value to science and education. Each site is identified and evaluated through a rigorous process – including a scientific evaluation and public comment period – to formally acknowledge its outstanding biological or geological features.
But even as the special features of Ice Mountain were being recognized, the Conservancy used the occasion to draw attention to the challenges facing land managers who are trying to maintain these beloved landmarks in the face of forest pests, invasive species, and a warming planet.
"No natural place is static – change is part of nature," Bartgis said. "And although this place and the plants that live here have likely persisted since the end of the Pleistocene, there is no promise that it will remain as it is through the coming decades."
Researchers from West Virginia University who have studied Ice Mountain's ice vents since 2003 have recorded, for example, that the air coming out of the vents warmed to 1 degree Celsius at least three weeks earlier this year than any time since they began taking records. And the Conservancy has documented infestations of hemlock woolly adelgid, which could kill the hemlocks that shade the talus slopes, further aggravating the effects of climate change by exposing the ice vents to sunlight.
Helping the mountain withstand the onslaught of non-native invasive species, forest pests and diseases, and other stressors will make it more resilient to climate change. To make this nationally-recognized site stronger in the face of climate change, the Conservancy has been:
• Controlling non-native invasive weeds that threaten the native plants that make this place special. For example, Japanese stilt grass and garlic mustard threaten to crowd out rare plants.
• Monitoring for invasive species in order to respond quickly to new infestations.
• Surveying for harmful insects and diseases in native plants.
• Treating hemlocks to control the hemlock woolly adelgid that could kill these trees.
• Providing docent led hikes that help educate and inform visitors as to the unique qualities of the site and how our work helps protect this special place. Limiting visitation to docent led hikes also ensures that rare plants are not trampled.
While Ice Mountain is a particularly good example of how human-induced problems are bringing major changes to beloved landscapes, it's important to recognize that, throughout America, many of our most important natural areas face an uncertain future. Climate change, for example, threatens many of the National Natural Landmark sites that have been recognized in high elevation areas of West Virginia, which provide habitat for plants and animals that normally exist at places much further north or much higher in elevation.
Non-native forest pests and diseases, invasive plants, human trampling and other stressors (such as deer browse) threaten natural plants either by killing them outright, crowding them out, or weakening them, making them more vulnerable in the face of a changing climate.
"This designation represents a commitment to partnerships and science-based conservation, and will allow the National Park Service to act as an advocate for the continued conservation of Ice Mountain and other National Natural Landmarks nationwide," said Beth Johnson of the National Park Service.
Bartgis added, "Our work isn't done here, and the Conservancy calls on all Americans to join us in our efforts to conserve and restore Ice Mountain and the rest of our National Natural Landmarks."
The Conservancy' 159-acre preserve is open to the public only through guided tours scheduled in advance. For more information see www.nature.org/icemountain

Review: Brain Broo
Posted: Oct 31, 1998 at 12:00 AM (Last Updated: May 31, 2001 at 6:09 PM)Brian Broo is an orange drink that has been enhanced with a "triple hit" of ginkgo biloba. The flavor is very sweet and mild refreshing. We can't say that this product is high quality, (somehow it reminds us of SoBe...) but the orange flavor is fairly decent. Overall, we wouldn't recommend this product.

As a budding 80s teenager addicted to James Bond movies, Impossible Mission offered a chance to prove my true skills as a secret agent. I can remember playing and replaying this game for weeks. A nice blend of action, adventure, and puzzle solving, with a satisfying conclusion, made for one of the greatest games ever on the C-64.
Impossible Mission grabbed me from the start with the first synthesized speech Id ever heard on a computer since I got the speak and spell to say dirty words in elementary school.

On June 5th, the European Central Bank made modern Central Banking history by providing the world with its first announcement of what they call a negative interest rate. For those who may be scratching their heads at the concept of a negative interest rate, we offer the following layman's definition:
It is a commission that is charged every month for holding too many Euros in the wrong place.
In the mind of the clever central banker, a negative interest rate provides a simple disincentive to hoard Euros. In his or her mind, the way to invigorate the European economy is to force Euros into circulation by turning them into a sort of hot potato, though at -0.10% the analogy is more akin to a potato emanating scarcely enough heat to melt a pat of butter.
Following the infallible logic of the central banker, the banks will take the money and lend it, as putting 100% of deposits at risk via a loan in a terribly disjointed economic zone is clearly a better alternative that loosing a guaranteed 0.10% annually by parking it overnight at the ECB.
This would be a brilliant solution were the simple hoarding of Euros the only thing ailing the Euro system. Unfortunately for the ECB and indeed, Euro holders in general, the problem with the Euro is that it is dying a strange death at the hands of deflation and strangulating the European economy in the process. Following this set of facts, it would hold that the safer bet for those who find themselves holding excess Euros would be to pay down higher rate liabilities in lieu of holding Euros overnight at the cannibalistic ECB, whose actions, while for the moment are foreseen to be a non-event, will ultimately lead to an implosion of the 15 year old Euro currency.
What is lost on the European central bank is that they are managing a debt-based currency that looks like money but smells something much different. While charging a commission on bank deposits in hopes of getting currency flowing again may seem a good idea, the dynamics of the debt-based currency make this strategy akin to economic suicide.

- Price: $40-$200
- Official Site: SanDisk.com
- Specs: 8GB to 64GB; Password protection and AES hardware encryption; Backup button
- Company: SanDisk Corporation
SanDisk, inarguably a leader in the world of memory and storage, looks to solidify its spot in the pole position with a new line of backup USB drives, which should land on store shelves in April. The SanDisk Ultra Backup USB Flash Drives feature a button-activated backup application and a cool black-and-red look.
Simple backup is a buzz concept right now: Knowing that we generally backup about as often as we floss, tech companies have tapped into the current consumer zeitgeist with all manner of easy backup solutions, notably Apple's idiot-proof Time Machine. SanDisk's new thumb drives take a different approach. Instead of being a software agent that throws backed-up data onto an external hard drive or web vault, SanDisk's Ultra Backup USB Flash Drives keep the software onboard, pulling selected data off the computer at the push of a button. The data is then protected by a two-layer encryption scheme, so that you can back up your stuff, then toss the drive into your bag with no fear of having your data stolen and read by someone else.
The new Ultra Backup USB Flash Drives look like the perfect merger between form and function, with easy-breezy backup functionality and a form factor that would make a fashionista weak in the knees. That being said, there's a problem inherent to USB stick backup; that is, backup shouldn't even need a button. It should be an automatic, timed function that happens in the background. And the price-performance ratios of USB sticks and hard drives put the points in the hard drive camp. Also, it's not yet clear whether the SanDisk solution will track earlier versions or simply replace old files with new. These facts make any USB stick a lousy choice for business backups, but for a college student looking for a quick backup off his laptop, SanDisk's Ultra Backup USB Flash Drives are a good balance of looks and action -- provided you're using Windows XP or Vista. Those using Macs, Linux boxes or older Windows machines can still use the drives as storage, but the backup and encryption goodies won't work for them -- in which case there are cheaper flash drives available.

A smorgasbord of local culinary news, achievements and insider information
Put a Little Goose in Your Berries
From early June until the end of July, Leon and AnnaMae Wilson trek from their Newbury, Ohio, farm to the North Union Farmers Market at Shaker Square every Saturday morning. A gaggle of gooseberry groupies is usually waiting for them. "They're a fabulous, early-harvest berry," says farmer's market executive director Donita Anderson, "and it's almost impossible to find fresh ones. If the Wilsons' crop were 10 times bigger, we'd still sell out."
According to Shawn Wright, an Ohio State University horticulturist, the berries were common in the U.S. until the early 1900s, when an eradication program was begun because the plant hosted a disease that killed white pines. Nowadays, most Americans wouldn't recognize gooseberries — a relative of the currant — but they're very popular in Europe. The North American variety is tart when eaten raw, and similar to rhubarb or tamarind when cooked. The European cultivars produce slightly sweeter fruit. The Wilsons grow both. The bushes are thick with wicked thorns that make picking more than tedious. "It's a difficult crop, but it's well worth it," says Leon.
The berries' acidic punch is great in sweet-and-sour sauces, but they're most often used in desserts.
— Pam O'Hara & Laura Taxel
Between the Covers
Local author Michael Ruhlman's latest book, "The Reach of a Chef: Beyond Perfection" (Viking, $27.95) will be in stores at the end of May. We got a conversational preview.
Q: What can you tell us about your new book?
A: It's a narrative of my search for the heart of the profession and what it means — a continuation of my exploration of the professional kitchen. It's a follow-up to "The Making of a Chef" [1997] and reviews the changes that have happened since then.
Q: What sort of changes?
A: It's a white-hot profession right now. Chef/owners were a rarity in the 1980s, but now chefs are becoming their own bosses and acting more like CEOs. They are building big businesses.
Q: How so?
A: They have become more articulate, more media savvy. I look in-
to what it means to be a celebrity chef, beginning with Thomas Keller [legendary chef/owner of the French Laundry] and his Manhattan restaurant Per Se. I go into his history and how he got to where he is. There are profiles of Rachael Ray and Emeril. I also return to restaurants that I've visited before to see what's different.
Q: Did you revisit the Culinary Institute
of America?
A: Yes, I went back. Changes there reflect broader changes in the industry. The kitchen is becoming more and more professional, less rough and crude. The curriculum has been revamped; courses are increasingly specialized. Oriental Cuisine is now The Cuisines of Asia and the class is twice as long.
Q: Do you have another book floating around in your head?
A: Always.
More Food for Thought
Some of our other local foodies-slash-writers have put pen to paper recently:
"Brownies to Die For! The Complete Guide for Brownie Lovers" by Bev Shaffer, director of Mustard Seed Market and Caf�������© Cooking Schools, is a tour de chocolate, full of easy-to-follow recipes and baking tips. (Pelican Publishing Co., $24.95)
"Ohio Wine Country Excursions" by Patricia Latimer, author of "California Wineries: Sonoma and Mendocino," profiles 65 wineries around the state. Use it to plan a trip or a purchase. (Emmis Books, $25).
ICASI by the Numbers
Loretta Paganini's impressive new building, on Mayfield Road in Chesterland, has
an equally imposing handle: International Culinary Arts & Sciences Institute, ICASI for short. Five times the size of her original place across the road (where classes are still offered for food enthusiasts) this school serves aspiring professionals. Spacious, well-equipped teaching kitchens, a culinary library, a cafe showcasing student talent and a classical training program make ICASI a destination for all those chef wannabes who dream of wearing the next celebrity toque. We've got a "paint by numbers" picture of the facility.

Going Once, Going Twice, Sold!
Bidding for Beef
If you want to put a little excitement into your food-shopping experience, go to MisterBrisket.com on Friday afternoons for the E-Brisket online auction. It runs from 1 to 3 p.m. and usually ends with a bidding war during the last five minutes. For those unfamiliar with the meatmeister, nationally known as "Cleveland's culinary cult figure," Mr. Brisket is Sanford Herskovitz, 67. He started delivering orders of poultry, seafood and cut-to-order USDA Prime beef 30 years ago. The clientele of his shop on South Taylor Road in Cleveland Heights has included Itzhak Perlman, Frank Perdue, Joe Torre and Pierre Boulez. Now Herskovitz's stepson, Hank Kornblut, is going cyber, capitalizing on the public's appetite for online shopping and eBay-style buying.
On the Friday before New Year's Eve 2005, bidders competed for roasted beef tenderloin, shrimp cocktail and smoked salmon for eight. The package had a retail value of $150 and went for just $62! Just in time for Valentine's Day, a lucky auction participant paid $27 for a prime rib steak for two that would have cost $35 in the store. One can only imagine what delicacies — and bargains — Memorial Day weekend and the Fourth of July will bring.

An excellent hotel for a quiet get away or a family party with lovely food and excellent service
Conveniently located in Bosham within walking distance of Chichester and Fishbourne Palace, the Millstream is also close to a tidal inlet, an interesting pub and mediaeval church.
The hotel is large enough to give it an atmosphere but small enough for the staff to treat you personally. The food and drink are well priced and the cuisine is outstanding.

Pop diva Beyoncé released an alternate music video for her song "Grown Woman" on Monday, Mar. 31, 2014 via TIME.com. Like her mega-selling self-titled album, the colorful clip arrived unannounced and out of nowhere.
According to TIME, the second video for "Grown Woman" surfaced yesterday. The first version arrived last December with Beyoncé's visual self-titled album. The tribal R&B track was first previewed last year in Bey's Pepsi commercial but did not make the record's final tracklist. She tacked on the music video as a bonus clip, though, to the visual side of her album.
The original clip of "Grown Woman" played out like an old VHS tape showing a young Beyoncé grooving with her present day self. Compared to the rest of the videos on her new album, "Grown Woman" was the most trippy with wild visual effects. It was like a photo album of past memories come to life. The new version adds a splash of color and tons of '90s screen saver-like graphics. Beyoncé's "Grown Woman" video is presented in a clearer and fiercer fashion with this remake.
Beyoncé's self-titled album was released in December of last year and it peaked at No. 1 on Billboard's albums chart.

Crofter's Organic recently released a new line of Organic Superfruit Spreads made from exotic fruits that are high in anti-oxidants like pomegranate, black currants and yumberries. According to their website, Crofters Super Fruit Spread contains as much antioxidant activity as 1L of red wine. They've determined this via in-house laboratory tests using ORAC analysis.
All Superfruit Spreads are made with Fair Trade sugar, contain no artificial flavors or preservatives, and are certified organic. The spreads are available in 11oz. jars at an SRP of $4.99.
The fruit in each Crofter Superfruit Flavor is sourced from around the globe:
- North American blend: cranberry and blueberry
- South American blend: maqui berry and passionfruit
- European blend: pomegranate and black currant
- Asian blend: yumberry and raspberry
Using Crofter's Super Fruit Spreads
Jams, jellies, fruit spreads – I like them all. But what I loved about Crofter's Superfruit Spreads were their unusual and delicious flavors. So far my favorite is the European blend, since I love pomegranate. But the South American one is delicious, too. My least favorite is the North American one, since I don't care for blueberry all that much. Haven't tried the Asian blend yet.
I've been experimenting a little bit with the spreads, trying them on toast and pancakes. So far my favorite is adding 2 tablespoons (only 1 Weight Watchers POINT) to a cup of no fat plain yogurt. It tastes just as good as a premixed flavored yogurt because a little of these spreads go a long way. Making a parfait with a layer of yogurt, a thin layer of spread, then some berries and a few nuts, ground flax seed, or granola would be a yummy and healthy way to start your day, too.
You can also use Crofter's Organic Super Fruit spread a glaze for a grilled meat, like pork, chicken or shrimp. Just add a little water and maybe some hot sauce to spice it up a bit. Or add a little bit to a ham sandwich.
The Crofter's site features all kinds of decadent recipes, but one way I like using fruit spread is in a berry trifle. Here's a fairly healthy version from eatbetteramerica.com.
Fat Free Trifle
makes 8 servings
- 1 large package (3.4 ounces) fat-free instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 package (10 ounces) fat-free pound cake, cut into 1/2" slices
- 1 jar (10 ounces) all-fruit raspberry preserves (Crofters Asian or European blend spreads would be an excellent choice)
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 3 ripe bananas, sliced
- Prepare pudding according to package directions, using fat-free milk.
- Arrange a single layer of cake in the bottom a deep glass bowl.
- Spread with one-third of preserves and sprinkle with a generous tablespoon of orange juice.
- Top with one-third of banana slices and one-third of pudding.
- Continue layering two more times, ending with pudding.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate a few hours before serving.
This trifle gets better over time so the cake can absorb the flavors.
Nutritional Information for 1 serving:
Calories 280 (Calories from Fat 0); Total Fat 0g (Saturated Fat 0g, Trans Fat 0g); Cholesterol 0mg; Sodium 280mg; Total Carbohydrate 68g; Dietary Fiber 2g; Sugars 48g
Weight Watchers POINTS per serving = 5
- Use a lower calorie, high fiber fruit like strawberries or blueberries instead of bananas. Or use half bananas and half berries.
- If you're looking for a dairy free substitute for pudding, try Nasoya Silken Creations.

Heda Margolius Kovaly's steady gaze at the lives caught up in Czechoslovakia's tragic fate under the Nazis and then during the Stalin era illuminates the chaotic life of a nation. Kovaly was deported to concentration camps, escaped from a death march, nearly starved in the postwar years, only to be shattered by her husband's conviction (in the infamous 1952 Slansky trial) and his execution. Resonant with lyricism, this gripping memoir is uplifting even in the midst of horror.
Author Biography
Heda Margolius Kovaly recently retired from the Harvard Law School Library and has returned to the Czech Republic.

UPDATE: Ethan has been rescued and has been renamed Max. He has been adopted by Christina, her two-year-old daughter and two small pooches named Bruiser and Emma.
Thank you everyone for sharing this boy's story and helping to find him a home.
Live a long, wonderful life Max.
Ethan is the saddest dog, with a broken heart, living at the San Bernardino County Animal Shelter. All day he just sits in his kennel watching the door. Although dogs live for the moment, Ethan is waiting for someone.
Ethan was brought in on April 2 and will be available for adoption on April 9. His ID# is A463249.
The two-year-old gray and white male pit bull mix has been described as extremely gentle and kind. A volunteer stated the following:
"Ethan is so depressed. He didn't even want to look at me when I visited him today. It's kind of cold today, but I think he's shaking more because he is just petrified being here. This poor boy needs a home soon."
Please watch his video by clicking here; it's easy to see just how scared and depressed the situation is for this little guy.
A Facebook thread detailing the efforts of volunteers trying to find an organization to rescue, foster, or an individual to adopt this beautiful dog can be followed by clicking here.

Of course the rum pour is awesomeness, but I also like the way the grass edges over the cliff.
This is our planet!
That front grill is the coolest.
Oh splat!

Great use of the new fluted round brick. I want this many!

According to Appeal Democrat on Sunday, it appears that technology geeks could find best deals on electronics that undercut the competition from between 30 to 70 percent. Monoprice gives significant price cuts in comparison to the big box retail competition.
With a lot of stores closing its doors, it's no wonder that Monoprice tends to overshadow the competition. The sizable, 173,000 square-foot distribution center and headquarters exists in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. and their method of success entails them seeking out factories directly to Asia that have the capability of manufacturing brick-and-mortar store quality electronic items.
If a customer were to do a price comparison between a retail outlet such as Radio Shack or Best Buy when buying a simple HDMI cable, one would find that Monoprice's cost of such a component to be around $3.61 where as with a retail store to be around $20. Upon comparison, a customer may see the latter as total sticker shock.
The online store originated in 2002 and has mostly spread by word of mouth between the tech saavy and this could even bode to be some competition to Amazon and even Tiger Direct mostly because it sells a limited amount of items that are self-tested. Other online stores tend to sell pretty much everything without any kind of quality assurance.
Most notable is the ability to produce a shipment in a rather efficient manner. For instance, if an order is placed, a box for the specific size item that's ordered is chosen and makes its way across the roller apparatus to the location of the physical item. That item is simply dropped into the box and put on a truck to be shipped off.
The company has brought on-board new categories such as electronic guitars and LED energy efficient bulbs as well. Also, Monoprice touts if someone within California places an order, it can be delivered the following day at a shipping price of $9.95. Smart phone cases that normally go for around $10 to $50 sell for around $4 at Monoprice.

Got a craving for salty, crunchy snacks? Make a batch of these mildly spiced, addictive garbanzos and you'll be well-armed for your next snack attack. They travel well, too. A ziploc of these roasted chickpeas can get you through class, Christmas shopping, or help fend off the afternoon vending machine raid.
Of course, they're much healthier than chips or pretzels – and you'll save some money too, since it costs less than $1 per batch to make. Which also comes in handy around Christmas shopping time….1 can chickpeas (15 oz) 1 tsp olive oil ¼ tsp each: salt, garlic powder 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
Preheat oven to 425. Drain chickpeas and rinse well with water. Blot with paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible. Transfer chickpeas to a bowl and add oil and spices, stirring to coat. Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Stir, then bake for another 5-10 minutes or until crisp but not burnt. (Check frequently after 20 minutes, ovens are different so your cooking time may vary slightly).
Makes 3 servings. Nutrition Facts per serving: 180 calories, 3 g fat (0 saturated), 32 grams carbohydrate (6 g fiber), 7 g protein.
Don't like spice at all? Skip the cayenne. Think another seasoning combo would work? Odds are, it will. I've made these with every spice imaginable, and they're always pretty good!

Call for 2014 Conservation Grant Proposals
December 10, 2013 – The Zoo's Conservation Grants program is launching its 2014 grant program with a call for proposals in search of project funding. Projects should demonstrate a direct and measurable impact on the conservation of a species or habitat, with local projects being of particular interest. The deadline for submission is January 31, 2014.
The conservation grant program is administered by the Zoo's Conservation Advisory Committee (CAC), a joint venture between the Sequoia Park Zoo and the Sequoia Park Zoo Foundation.
"Our conservation grant program is now entering its third year," said Gretchen Ziegler, Zoo Manager and Chair of the Conservation Advisory Committee. "Last year's projects are still going strong, and we look forward to receiving more exciting proposals from the community soon. It's extremely rewarding to be able to fund such important conservation work."
Among current projects supported by CAC grants are:
- Impact of Urban Habitat Restoration on Bird Populations, a citizen science project at Arcata Elementary School
- Tracking an Animal on the Edge of Extinction, a research study to better understand the status of the Saola, one of the world's rarest animals
- Peccaries at Risk in Paraguay, a camera-trapping study of habitat destruction impact on population density
- Synchrony of Dune Silver Bee and Flower Bloom on Humboldt Bay North Spit, a field study of one of Humboldt Bay's most important pollinators
For more information and a grant application, click here.
The Zoo's Conservation Advisory Committee was launched in March 2011 and serves in an advisory role to the Zoo Foundation's Board of Directors, which manages the Conservation Fund. Committee members include staff and supporters from the Zoo and the Foundation, as well as professional biologists in the local community.
