College Hockey:RedHawks Overpower Weary NMU
Miami Takes CCHA Third-Place Game
DETROIT — The Miami RedHawks' offense proved to be too much for a fatigued Northern Michigan team, taking a two-goal lead in the first and beating NMU 4-0 to win the third-place game of the CCHA Super Six at Joe Louis Arena.
The game was important for Miami (23-13-4) from an NCAA standpoint, allowing the RedHawks a tuneup for their first NCAA appearance since 1997 and preventing any substantial drop in the PairWise Rankings.
"I think it gave us some momentum [for the national tournament]," said Miami coach Enrico Blasi. "Obviously, a disappointing loss last night in overtime, but we came out and executed today. We played hard against a team that played hard. [NMU] came after us and our guys responded.
"Brandon Crawford-West played well in net. We had some guys that scored some goals. Hogeboom and Kompon played well again. Our defensemen played pretty good. I think we'll carry some momentum into next week."
The road-weary Wildcats, coming off a trip to Fairbanks last week, played their third game in three days and appeared to have little gas in the tank.
"Our guys were playing for pride," said NMU head coach Walt Kyle. "We've spent one night in our own bed in the last 12 [and] we were very tired. We also played tonight's game without [Nathan] Oystrick and [John] Miller, two of our defensemen. And for nothing, too. [The third game] is a brutal game to play."
Andy Greene had the game-winning goal and an assist, and Matt Christie had two helpers of his own. Four different RedHawks contributed to the goal production.
"It's a great comeback after a loss last night," said Greene. "We still have a chance to go to the NCAA tournament, so we wanted to make sure that we came out and put our best game on."
It didn't take long for the RedHawks to jump out in front. Greene opened the scoring at the 3:11 mark of the first by jamming a shot through the legs of NMU netminder Tuomas Tarkki for the 1-0 lead. Andy Nelson assisted on the play.
"Andy gave me a great pass. I was streaking in and just shot it. I don't know if it went straight in or I knocked the goalie in, but I'll take them when I get them."
The RedHawks made it 2-0 at 8:16 of the period. After a turnover in the neutral zone, Nelson skated in on goal, draped by a defender, and wristed a shot past Tarkki, with Greene earning his assist.
Miami outshot the Wildcats 18-7 in the opening stanza.
The RedHawks increased their lead to three goals at 8:27 of the second. Sophomore Taylor Hustead blasted a shot off Tarkki from the top of the right circle, and Todd Grant picked up the rebound for his 15th goal of the season.
Greg Hogeboom's 19th goal of the season brought the final score to 4-0 at 15:22 in the second.
Brandon Crawford-West made a shutout-saving stop with 40.9 left in the contest, after which a brief scrum ensued. Crawford-West finished the game with 24 saves for his third shutout of the season. Miami outshot NMU 41-24.
The lone bright spot for the Wildcats was the brief appearance of Craig Kowalski at the beginning of the game, which allowed him to become the all-time leader among goaltenders in games played at NMU with 132. Kowalski appeared in the first 15 seconds of the game to break the record.
"He deserves to hold the record," said Kyle. "I wanted him to have it."
When asked if Kyle had to talk him into the game in order to set the record, Kowalski replied, "Yeah, he did."
Neither team was effective on the power play, with both teams being held scoreless in six chances each.
The Wildcats end their season with a record of 21-16-4.

Panama City Beach City Council members have approved a plan to give several city departments a little more room.
They have asked architects to design new buildings for the Beach Police and Public Works departments.
Each day the men and women of the Panama City Beach Police department cram into the only building they have ever called home, all 8,000 square feet of it.
"We should have a department about 18-20 thousand square feet," said Chief Drew Whitman. "So we can house everything. Right now, I have to rent a place to store my property."
When the city incorporated in 1970, the police department moved into this building, which had been around since the 1950's.
There were only 11 officers on the force, now there are more than 70.
"I think it's going to boost everyone's morale. We've been waiting a long time for a new building," said Cindy Sowell, the records secretary at the department. "I think it's going to be great for everyone."
The architects now have free reign to decide how the property should be used for both the Public Works building and the police department."
Their plan will then be submitted to the city council for approval.
The two buildings will cost a little more than $8 million.
The city is getting the money from impact fees and the police department's general fund.
"We believe if we build both at the same time, it will benefit the police department, the public works and the city will save money," said Whitman.
The entire project should take at least 20 months to complete, but only a year for actual construction, once the city breaks ground.

Texas A&M Head Coach, Pat Henry, is ranked third all time in NCAA title wins! In order to accomplish an excellent sprint relay handoff, Coach Henry stresses the idea that you must have good sprint mechanics.
Your athletes should be on one side of the lane, one taking the inside, one taking the outside, to avoid tripping or running into each other. When the incoming runner makes the call for the hand-off, the outgoing runner should bring the hand up high with an open palm, providing a clear target. The incoming runner should hand the baton in one quick pushing motion. No time should be wasted, and no motion should be wasted. Relay racing should be one of the most enjoyable aspects of a track team, but as Coach Henry points out, it also carries the responsibility of hard work and concentrated effort.
Check out this world class DVD, Texas A&M Track & Field Series – Drills and Progressions for Championship Sprints, Starts and Relays, to view another excellent instructional clip. See what other Relay DVDs we have in our expansive Track & Field DVD collection.

My hands and feet are numb
for I am cold and I have no
home to give me warmth.
A home and warmth are two
things I search for that is why
people call me a bum.
I have not eaten but I have
prayed and my prayers have
not yet been answer for I have
not eaten in days.
So I'll just lay in my place of
sleep and pray once more as I
search for warmth, for I have
found my home, The streets.

Once, it sold cultivated
pigment, before it became
a catacomb of cardboard drapes.
Makeshift out-of-business signs
made me wonder if the gallery owner
intended his display,
subtitle: irony frames rage.
Gone, the watercolour
weeping chartreuse, a harsh backdrop
of morose blues; Gone, the oil
on wood, knife strokes applied
so thickly, it almost moved; Gone,
charcoal sketches of thunderstorms
greying the shores of Port Elgin.
Dark, now, halls that sheltered
dreamscapes, art undisciplined, squeezed
into corners, elbowing for attention.
I ache
for one dove
that clung to an azure sky,
the coo of my name,
but I'd been unable to take him home
to my cube cage. He deserved
a rectory or a view that would provide
sanctuary. His wings had beat against
pulse points; one feather
tickled a memory
of a robin that aimed
for a cloudless sky but
collided with a picture window —
its point of contact left a scarlet smear.
Grandmother carefully wrapped
the corpse in yesterday's news.
I trudged to the garbage can,
unseen, found D-E-A-D
in its shroud, snuck to the garden
and buried it under tall phlox,
florid snap dragons; a child sobbing,
wrenched by a world
where beauty is fragile,
Today, people walk along the street,
hold devices that fail to signal
that something living slowly
starves to death, atrophies; I watch
a happy girl point to a puddle,
but her mother fails to see
the large coin it holds.
There had been a portrait,
like a sun shower, its perfect fault lines
of light and rain, a woman shoed in waves,
almost overtaken, her footsteps
stolen by unnatural foam…
I am so sorry, artist unmet,
do you even know
you've flown
into a shut window.

Driving down the street,
sweet suburbia exhales,
scents of butter pecans
and apple blossoms penetrate the wind,
but secrets hide behind this serene atmosphere.
Momma's passed out on the couch,
Jack's become her best friend.
She has numbed out the pain around her,
rejects the truth.
Bobby loves his gun,
he knows how to make it all come to an end.
One day he'll have the courage,
and take everyone else with him.
Suzy hides in her closet,
she doesn't want daddy to find her,
have his ways like he does.
She just wants to fade away and die.
Papa's working late,
thinking of his sweet desert,
no one knows the world he creates,
while he pushes reality away.
Mittens sits in the windowsill,
watches the strangers pass by,
his tail twitching back and forth,
the only thing that knows the truth behind the doors.
While the house silently cries,
the world will still drive by.
Smell the sweetness in the wind,
be hypnotized,
by a sweet suburban lie.

The sweetest sounds of burning trees
A gentle stroking in the breeze
The calm has lasted past the storm
Cloudy visions, Satan's roar
Too many sights have passed my way
A time found only in the haze
The softest screams are running bare
My aching bones creak as I stare
You walk a distance towards me
The fall's eternal, can't you see?
I'm a memory in your heart
I whisper to you in the dark
The battle's started at the end
No one is coming to repent
The sinners grab their wine from prey
No judgment calling here to stay
The sport is reckless to be told
The one is laughing at his souls
It falters nowhere to be sure
The power grows forevermore
Like a spirit in the wind
I have no say in where you've been
But cross the line to come to me
And pay the price for ecstasy
You walk a distance towards me
The fall's eternal, can't you see?
I'm a memory in your heart
I whisper to you in the dark.

The pro-Hanoi Vietcong many years ago
In the 1950's Diem's government they'd overthrow
All opposition was crushed killed or jailed
These elected ones to their people they failed
This Buddhist country so religious in belief
Now politically torn apart, impending future grief
In the early 1960's with the CIA in place
Discussing with Vietnam's generals, Diem, assassinated in disgrace
With the Vietcong army, growing from strength to strength
Another communist foothold, going to any lengths
In 1965, with 3500 U.S. Marines in place
By December of that year, 200,000 in many a base
These U.S. Marines, in their defensive mode
Over the coming months, peace would soon erode
With the Tet Offensive upon us, and the "Battle of Hue"
The Americans were now involved, this bloody war now brews
One decision to end this conflict, came in 1969
Nixon sent 18 B-52s, bordering Soviet airspace line
He wanted to show he was capable, to end this bloody war
But as the months and years progressed, the body count would soar
The anti-war movement was gathering strength, also in 1969
But the "Green Beret Affair" started to undermine
A U.S. Army platoon raped and pillaged, the village of My Lai
Where civilians were massacred, and many left to die
In 1970-71, Cambodia incurred wars wrath
Where they and the country Laos, were in the U.S. bombing path
Also in 71, there was the cutting of the Ho Chi Minh trail
But arms and supplies got through, this mission to no avail
Later in the same year, the Anzac's withdrew their soldiers
The U.S. also reduced, many of theirs from Vietnam's borders
In 1973, Nixon declared the suspension of offensive action
The Paris Peace Accords took place, peace with this warring faction
Between the years 73 - 74 under Trà, the Vietcong grew in strength
There was no mass offensive, to lure the Americans to their trench
Gradually they marched to their target, to see their enemies eyes
To their city of Saigon, now over a million humans have died
The average age of the American to die in this bloody war
Was just nineteen years old, never knowing what they were fighting for
So many came home from this horror, leaving themselves behind
Because so many came home different, home with a different mind
Even to this day, many Americans look back and ask
Why their elected Congress, feed them to these tasks
The sad thing about Vietnam, it continues to this present day
Where governments make decisions, asking guns to hear their say

The greatest holiday gift I ever received
Goes back so many, many years
Before my life became turmoiled
And before my tears for fears
I was a child like many out there
Torn, strewn and split of kin
Mother and father in differences
Confused at seven, wearing their same skin
For I was one of the lucky ones
To a Highland Estate I would go
It's on the west coast of Scotland
Where my holidays desired me so
Secretly I internally smiled
For a whisper of where I was heading
To live with a movie star hero
No longer my life was in dreading
We were picked up by a man so fine
His manners were an absolute joy
Regimental he was in his approach
To me, just a seven year old boy
We travelled through the village of Plockton
Crystal clear waters edged to it's shore
I knew from this very moment
Being here ebbed previous family sores
On entering his house I was in awe
Movie pictures came to my view
They were images of James Bond
At seven I was totally through
A voice called to me
Hey James! sit down and I'll tell you me
Still in circles in walking awe
This is what he told thee
My name is Patrick Dalzel Job
In the Second World War I served
But this recognition I bestow
Humbles me to it's deserve
This honour that's been given
Was blessed by a colleague in war
What desired Ian Fleming to be so striven
Possibly, what we were fighting for
We served on the same destroyer
Fighting to make the future free
His tribute, in his novels I became
James Bond, it's incredibly me
Not many seven year olds have stayed with James Bond.
This seven year old Scot's boy has, maybe I learnt?

Once again, the powers that must
In rise again in what we trust
An overseas conflict, another war
Just what in the hell are we fighting for
Families are asking, Korea has just passed
Generations again reft, how long will it last
A country in need, to rebuild again
Flags at half mast, in wind and rain strain
Once again into war, sent by the Washington Post
To send back reports to hit home the most
Military observers were the first to be sent in
Another chapter of man entering existing sin
I'm witnessing our ariel power, Lam Son 719
US planners determine their incursion, saying all will be fine
Along the Mekong River, we'll carpet bomb their supply trail
Tons of munitions and napalm, this spread surely cannot fail
Many sorties are being flown, for the wounded and the dead
Whilst Nixon and his cronies, aren't thinking with their heads
The news of losses has reached me, nineteen have been killed
Eleven missing, fifty nine wounded, more American blood spilled
Seven fixed wing aircraft, more sons in action loss
Whilst back at home more protests, fading the dyeing's gloss
To to this job that I do, I was never prepared for this
To witness such bloody scenes, and ignore that life is bliss
How can I write about a soldier, whose name I'll never know
Killed at nineteen years old, his family he'll never see grow
Or even explain to his parents, when carried from the AH-1
His body bullet riddled and limp, when lifted it bloodily run
I never went back to the theatre, called the Vietnam War
Having witnessed the wanton killing, what were we fighting for
This colonial conflict that started, us on the side of France
So many came back as strangers, many to live in trance

On a slope graced with green
White marble stands in proud salute
For beneath these engraved pillars of memory
Lie the resting places of heroes
A solitary green fir looks down
As if sheltering the lost and the taken
So many names, from all walks of life
A father, brother a girlfriend or wife
On a sunny day, they glow radiant like their lives
On a dull day, they stand out against the greys
For the living, life goes on
Tomorrow is another day
He stands proud and strong, this kilted warrior
head held high against the unending pain
of a heart born out of sadness
for the loss of those who came before him
and thoughts of those who would
continue on when he himself was no more.
Proud men one and all
vows made, till surrendered in death
to defend that which
was their birthright, the very land
upon which he now stood.
The call to battle though long since silenced
came from within his very heart and soul
blood of the ancient ones raged in his veins
his sword by his side...shield upon his back
he stood ready to charge into battle
to do what was expected of him since birth
to fight as those before him fought
without fear, but with a strength
only a battle hardened warrior
knew and understood.

We went to the zoo that fine summers day
Seeing many an animal in captivity play
From all over the world, five continents all
Where many are thriving, and many will fall
I find it ironic when we view and we stare
For outside we slaughter, in their dens and their lairs
The above line tells me that the zoos are the place
To save her gems whilst us humans lose face
As her marvels diminish, we praise these acres of land
And salute those who cared and drew up their plans
For the zoos they created are their dreamed thoughts ahead
Without these few acres, many species would be dead
So next time you visit, either a zoo or a park
Look beyond their boundaries, as you stand in the Ark
So much I wanted to say. So much I wanted to shout.
It was like being trapped behind bars without a way
to get out.
My mind going wild with all these questions of why.
The only way to escape was to fall asleep or to cry.
What did I do so bad that made me have to pay?
My friends, my dreams, and my life was swepped away.
I know I can do it! I try and I try.
Nothing seems to get better. I sometimes wish
I would Die.
Starved for attention. I wanna talk to the world.
I just miss being loved. Miss the warmth of a girl.
Snickers and stairs is what my life has become.
I'm treated like I'm a kid, like I'm sick, or I'm dumb.
One day to the next. Life becomes work just to be alive.
I thank god for my blessings. I thank god I survived.
I finally see some improvement. More hope tickles
my brain.
It was worth all the time, all the tears, all the pain.
I awake with a smile and new hope to move on.
I did it! I did it! All those hard times are gone!

It stands alone
in a field of loneliness and neglect
the bright red paint has faded into a murky brown
a strict reminder from mother natures pounding fury through the years
once housing a families treasures
now only stores their forgotten tears
The door hangs lazily from its missing bolts
its hinges silent and perfectly rusted
as children we played inside its sturdy walls
now, it cant be trusted
It stands alone
the barn...
surrounded by a field of weeds and decay
tired and broken
it waits for its eventual collapse
a once bright red smile has faded
its loneliness has no purpose
not anymore

I wail lonely
in your distances
as endless trestles travel I
I was here I was
on your horizons,
present in your town
Come, ride with me
Come, keep me
from obsolescence, keep me
Without you
Within me
I am meaningless,
For how can I see, and, yes,
Who can I show,
If not you... if not you... if not you

I close my eyes
And back home I am
Looking out those
Century old windows
My inner tears
Would burst a dam
I remember every crack
In those walls,
Every floor board
Prone to creak
But the happiness
I had there,
Is something I can
now but seek...
Home of fifty years
Saw my tears and my joy
From infancy to adulthood
And the blessed life I'd had there
Since I was but a boy
A place where several
Family members had died
In the old fashioned way
And all those tears I cried...
Not in some remote hospital,
But where they wanted to be
And I'd suely love to die there,
If it was up to me..
But, it was my destiny
To come here,
In this desolate place
Certainly I'm not that happy
But it's something I must face
I made a mistake,
I should have died there
Where I had lived so happily
And now, I barely care,
What becomes of me
My life is over
Save but a bit of love,
Still directed at me
And each day I wonder,
What do these people see in me?

Do you know what its like to be
in absolute darkness?
I do.
And I want to be back
on a foggy night
where winter doesn't fall too far
the only thing you can see
is a distant street light
yellow and gold
glowing from the distance
the wet leaves that fell from the trees
fill the night
with a dewy smell
I turn the key
bright headlights
flood the road
one line, two lines,
they all combine
into a white blur keeping me
from crossing into the abyss
I could drive forever
I want to be gone again
back to my home.

How different we are
And in the way we act
In love and romance
A heart filled pact
It can start out so good
To a thunderous applause
And fall by the wayside
Just because
Corners are turned
Sometimes we go the same way
And sometimes round the same corner
We can go slightly astray
At the start of it all
To the table we bring
But somewhere along the road
Different hearts, beat on different strings

A lonesome boat in the harbor rocks insanity.
Big waves of the black sea roll across the white sands
that fade into darkness for eternity.
Far from the life giving drops of rain are predators
in the city of shadows.
Feelings from the last solem breezes blow.
As the evening sun fades slowly into the night,
the pavement glistens like cracked glass
from the earlier evening rain.
A lack of silence remains.
In the city of shadows,
screaming voices creep in the corner of your mind.
Visions of the garden where the flowers died.
The dark alley reveals the emptiness of peace within your soul,
and death reveals the cold, cold truth way beneath the black crumbled earth.
Slapped with a strike of lightning,
disrupting the fall of silence where secrets crawl to hide,
in the foxholes of one's mind.
In the city of shadows, bewildered minds tick with the time of the clock.
Breath by breath falls perfectly out of place,
and darkness opens a new gate.
Tunes of the violin slowly fade away.
A new awakening to blindness,
in the city of shadows.

By This Hope My Spirit Often Measures
Pain and sorrow I need never borrow,
for Fate too often looks darkly my way.
I live today, knowing worse tomorrow,
may find me enduring a dreaded day.
Sun may rise but my lot crashes deeper,
as calamity grabs at my hurt soul.
If worse, I just may become a weeper,
and blackness reap its darkest, scary toll.
Pain and sorrow, I need no such bad friends.
This life may yet bring me far more treasures,
with sweet fruitful years before it dare ends.
By this hope, my spirit often measures!
Sun may rise, granting me sunshine so sweet,
my heart sings out in joy, not in defeat!

The year is 2025
I have come back to my past
To witness the Mayans
Who said Earth would not last
Was the year they declared
That the planet we knew
Could never be spared
An Asteroid shower
We could never comprehend
Sends this heaven to hell
In catastrophic spend
The first to hit
Was the daddy of them all
Our axis twisted
The human race in fall
Just of Madagascar
In the Indian Ocean
It's where it all started
That set our demise in motion
Tsunami waves
Like giant tower blocks
Swamped Indonesia
As Polynesia rocked
The force of impact
Reverberated west
On the Canary Islands
A dormant volcano so reft
It's massive mountain side
Into the Atlantic slipped
To the eastern seaboard
Of the United States it shipped
A second Tsunami
Half the world long
Would submerge the east
Taking the weak and the strong
The second to hit
Hit a place struck before
Tunguska in Russia
Receives another sore
Daylight turns to night
As earth meets our skies
Fallout from the reactors
In shattered demise
Radiated clouds
Eventually filter down
Leaving bleeding lacerations
As we humans death drown
Smaller asteroids
Some just a few hundred feet
Around the world they were marvelled
Until they meet their greet
The place where I stand now
Was Yosemite National Park
Now dark ridges of black
So bare and stark
It's been many many years
Since the sun shone through the screen
When I close my eyes I remember
When the earth was lush and green
How many of us survived
Will we ever know
Was this in our destiny
I think all around me, now shows
There is that barn again
The red peeling paint shouts
Old worn gray tired it says
Memories running track
Back in the fourties when
Youth did reign rule really
When the paint was new red
Dancing and prancing here
Singing joy fiddle plays
Squares were formed to music
Kicked up her heels in time
Red paint new drew her beaus
Well now that tired worn look
Only need new coat_paint

Fire at the edge of the world.
Eyes deep within the shoreless forest sea,
Witnesses of the most ancient ways
Watch smoke rising from the approaching front
Of treeless, naked land
Stripped bare by blind ambition,
Quietly await the end.
Five thousand acres a day
The last great garden drifts into the skies
To join the circling storms that once nourished it.
The fires lick and crawl their way
Into its green heart.
Fire is eating the soul of the world
Reducing the face of its childhood to ash;
- Behold here the sorrow of Eden's last relic
Becoming the charnel-house of Creation.

The cracked spine of
the book I dropped
at the call.
A chip in my
windshield left by a
pompous *?#@! in a
red sports car as I
drive to the
Rain expectorating
from an ashen sky as
the dirt is turned.
Today is terrible.
Though this is less
terrible than the
crack in grandma's
spine from her fall
down the stairs.
The chip in her
amazingly smart mind
after eighteen years
as a teacher.
Tears running,
dripping from my
Mothers ashen face
as she cries "My
mama's dead."
Today is terrible.
Though this is less
terrible than the
cracked family
emotions left raw
and empty.
The chip in Grandpas
numb mind at the
gathering… "Where is
Irene she should be
Faces gone ashen
with dread, do we
leave him numb or
remind him that his
wife is dead?
Today is terrible.
Though this is less
terrible than the
empty silences,
missing the jokes
Grandma used to
Grandma's laugh and
her endless smile
which always exposed
that tooth with the
chip in it.
Without her the
world has become
empty, bleak, and
Today is terrible.

Around that table, picture the scene
Self appointed leaders if you know what I mean
What were the topics on the Agenda that day
The Jewish race is about to pay
Who gave the right for this decision that's made
Who has the right to cleanse and degrade
To decide who lived, to decide who dies
Another chapter, I still wonder why
They came in the day they came in the night
Women and children pulled out of sight
Herded aboard like cattle and sheep
Many a family awoke from their sleep
Dazed and confused as they are taken away
Where will they be at the end of the day
From their warm houses and their warm beds
What must be going through their heads
As they travel through days and through the night
Up ahead, they see lots of lights
They depart the trucks and board the train
Their faces scared under the strain
Asking questions from family and others
Generations, sisters and brothers
Why are we here, where are we going
Windowless carriages with no way of knowing
We come to a stop, soldiers aplenty
Towers and wire, topped with sentries
What can this place be they have taken us to
As we head to large gates as they shuffle us through
Families separated, herded in file
Women and children, not one did smile
Taken to rooms where our heads were shaved
Is this the way humans behaved
Clothes discarded, as we enter the shower
No signs of water no signs of power
Doors slammed as we are all crammed in
History will recall this evil of sins
As we stand in the dark, chanting Jewish faith
Can hear the voices can't see the face
Noises above, do the showers start
The event has begun that tells us Humans apart
Questions and sighs, as walled vents show daylight
Some thing is falling then their slammed tight
A strange aroma starts to fill the air
As all around are screams of despair
Twenty minutes have passed and the quietness is rife
Two thousand people, two thousand lives
Pellets called HCN, or Hydrogen Cyanide
Contribute to this Genocide
After the quiet we all have to go
Dragged and carted by the Sonderkommando
To be dumped in pits covered by lime
A race to dispose by it's Human slime
Auschwitz, Buchenwald & Dachau slaughtered
Many a son, many a daughter
Experiments on children women and men
Some aged 90, many under 10
In 45, their end was near, how many alive would reappear
As Russians, British and US troops
Chased the Hun to their German roots
Each camp reached showed it's sordid past
Where millions of me, were massively gassed
In Auschwitz, to this present day
Birds don't fly, no animals play
The reminder is all for there to see
Those terrible days what happened to me
It's 1948, our Nation is born
From histories past, populations torn
To all who survived I wish you well
And our new born world, called Israel
It was only a few days
On their barren soil
Through a doorway he went
So many lives now spoiled
An explosive device
Plastic in design
Could never be detected
Now a life resigns
The regimental medic
Rushes to his aid
To stem his internal bleeding
Through his eyes he fades
His lifeless soul lies lonely
As he is gently stretchered away
Where he will be flown back home
To where the angels play
In honoured ceremony
As he is carried to his carriage
On the tarmac awaits
His fiance, without marriage
In the chapel of rest
She stands in a tear laden pose
Her tribute to her lost one
With him goes a Rose
For tomorrow she will awake
A new day in her life
As she remembers her love
Who would have made her his wife
I came here with flowers
held gently to my sobbing chest,
to bring them to my dearest;
I have departed from the living,
to come face to face with my ending...
I lay my flowers at this cold tombstone...
engraved with a name too sweet,
and yet so painful to call it out;
the heat in my throbbing veins
could warm it up with a loving wish before dawn;
but who can resurrect someone from death?
This morning is dazzled by an intense sun,
carnations, flags and tombstones
perfectly blend as the swaying pines
offer their breeze and soothing shade towards noon;
why are the noisy larks hiding,
and melancholically sing?
I rushed here to release these tears
and let them roll from these eyes,
like raindrops falling on this very quiet place:
where tranquility is as eternal as Paradise...
I lay my flowers at this cold tombstone,
feeling a presence so known;
others before me have knelt and cried,
not to forget whom they lost and dearly loved...

Dust dry winds that leech and parch,
Skeletal soldiers that endlessly march
O'er barren sand and rocky crest,
Examples of nature's cruel jest.
Plants that bristle with vicious quills;
A land that teems with ancient ills.
Cursed and blighted by gods unknown;
Loved by bandits and rogues alone.
Loneliness that echoes the land's bleak need;
A cancer that grows like an unholy seed.
Twisted remnants from an age long past;
Memories linger, but nothing lasts.
Broken spires and crumbling sand;
Fading ruins on every hand
Of once proud cities gathering dust;
Abandoned dreams now choked with rust.
Shadowed lands now harsh and bleak;
Drained of life, of decay they reek.
Blistering heat to sear and scorch;
A land benighted, the sun its torch.
Mountains loom high on every hand;
Timeless sentinels o'er the broken land.
Yet in this desolate, deserted place,
Life yet lingers, if only a trace.
Lizards, snakes, and scorpions abound;
Cactus blooms and birds give sound.
Reminders to all that life will live,
And survive on whatever nature will give.
A wasteland it is, and yet it is more;
For it harbors secrets of forgotten lore.
Lessons of serenity, hope, and trust;
Covered in blankets of alkaline dust.

There's places and faces where I've never been
some of them laughing and living in sin
Some of them hurting from being alone
And the places seem part of my own
The rhythm is flinging these words in my head
Against walls that refuse to be bled
Riding on nightmares through darkness and blight
Then lazily cruising in dreams
In this odessic searching
For reason for being
Nothing's as bad as it seems
But on turning away
In my off handed way
I'm so tempted to say
Another could view it as fey
Another attempt at explaining my motives for living and writing about it

My Dear Bro:
We had a delightful visit with Ed Brownell, up he who was one of the best boys in Keokuk in my day, & one of the smartest, taking rank, in [ bu ] precocious business talent, with the precocious & surprising oratorical talent shown by Billy Clagett & Billy Dickson. Dixon.1 Its Ed's visit had but one fault—it was too short. I usually hate any man, friend or foe, who comes up on the hill, but I would have been glad to have Ed here for a [ wr weeek ] if we had had house room & he the time to spare. - - - - - - - - And now at this moment cometh the photographer to make a lot of views of my study & the distant city—& it is a faultless, cloudless day, & he will have good success no doubt.2
Two or three times the baby has threatened to wink out like a snuffed candle, at 5 minutes notice; & each times the trouble was laid to prepared food, & the same discarded & a wet nurse employed——& each time the wet nurse went dry or something happened.— We have fled to wet nurses four times & to-day we are after two others down town. Livy is about worn out; the present wet nurse is pumped out; & my profanity is played out—for it no longer brings healing & satisfaction to the soul.3
Our love to Mollie.
Ys Affly
It begins to be almost questionable, as things look, now, whether we can visit mas as soon as we expected.

In our world Spider-Man became a phenomena following his introduction by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko in the pages of "Amazing Fantasy" #15 (August 1962). He is easily one of the most recognized superheroes ever created. The phenomena exists within the world of the Marvel Universe, and the Spider-Man we met in 1962 inspires a legacy that leads to Miguel O'Hara becoming Spider-Man in the year 2099 when a genetic accident gives his genetic code a rewrite to make his DNA 50% spider.
Marvel Comics published the series starring Spider-Man 2099 from 1992-1996 and at the conclusion of the series the character faded away with sporadic appearances. Following the events of "Superior Spider-Man" 17-19 (Nov-Dec 2013), the Spider-Man of the future gets stuck in the present day Marvel Universe. So what does the Spider-Man of 2099 do in 2014? He gets a job working for his grandfather.
The original writer of the original "Spider-Man 2099" series Peter David pairs up with artist Will Sliney to chronicle the all-new adventures of Miguel O'Hara as he sets up shop in a world he never made. "Spider-Man 2099" Volume 2 #1 picks up from Spidey 2099's last appearance helping the original Spider-Man resume his role as New York's number one web-slinger. The first order of business avoid being killed by the adjustor of T.O.T.E.M., a time travelling police officer whose mission is to wipe out time displaced anomalies.
While being pursued through the Alchemax building where Spider-Man 2099 has taken a job David is able to introduce the supporting players in the story. From Miguel O'Hara's cowardly and conniving grandfather to a potential "future" love interest in the CEO of Alchemax Liz Allan, who is also quite conniving, the characters of "Spider-Man 2099" take shape quick.
Sliney's artwork drives the action and the pace of the story. The pages are beautifully rendered in clean and clear designs that let the story unfold in the pictures that are complimented by David's dialogue. With the large cast in the first issue, walk-ons and soon to be regulars, Sliney gives each a distinct look. The art brings out the tension of the scenes through the use of expressive characters from smirks, to smiles, to fear Sliney uses it all to bring the story together.
David's penchant for witty dialogue keeps the tone of the story light even as the adjustor from T.O.T.E.M. carries out executions that are to "protect" the future. Miguel O'Hara comes across as a likeable guy who would rather go home then stay in the present day Marvel Universe, but he'll make the best of it while he is here.
"Spider-Man 2099" #1 is a welcome return to a character of the 1990s. The classic design for the hero's costume is unique and Sliney makes it look great. The story gets to explore a man out of his own time who walks a slippery slope by becoming involved with a company and people who he owes his existence to. This is definitely a series to jump on from the get go and watch the formation of the tapestry that David will weave.

I have had my Savage .308 bore sighted to 50 yards. My understanding is that this means the rifle will fire accurately (i.e. hit the paper, somewhere) at 50 yards.
If this is correct, does this mean to sight the rifle in at 100 yards, all I have to do is start shooting at a 100 yard target, see where the round strikes the target & adjust the windage & elevation knobs accordingly?
Should I bring a ruler with me?

This drink is directly derived from the bellini, which is not as old as you might think. The Nijinsky name derives from the famous russian dancer as seen here:
Jean Cocteau and his world: an illustrated biography by Arthur King Peters in 1986
"Cocteau was soon waiting in the wings, watching with lover's eyes as the nineteen-year-old Nijinsky danced. ... This was Le Dieu Bleu, a Coctelian cocktail of Siamese/Indian lovers, malevolent priests, and a dramatic rescue"
This variation of the bellini is simple, just add vodka. It is undetermined where this drink derives, it is not Russia. Given the popularity of vodka in modern american drinking culture and the height of popularity of nijinsky this drink dates not long after the Bellini itself.
This drink dates between 1986 - 1993 and contained at least as of then:
Shake these ingredients:
Peach Puree
Simple Syrup
Top with Champagne in a champagne flute

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats on Congress' supercommittee secretly presented Republicans with a revised deficit-cutting proposal earlier this week that calls for a blend of $1 trillion in spending cuts and $1 trillion in higher tax revenue over the next decade, officials in both parties said Wednesday night, adding that compromise talks remain alive though troubled.
The previously undisclosed offer scaled back an earlier Democratic demand for $1.3 trillion in higher taxes, a concession to Republicans. At the same time it jettisoned a plan to slow the growth in future cost-of-living increases in Social Security benefits, a provision liberal Democrats oppose.
COLUMBUS, N.M. (AP) — The federal government is issuing a loan guarantee to a company that plans to build a $135 million plant in southern New Mexico to produce biofuel from algae.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture announced the guarantee Monday. It has been in the making since December 2009, when the agency first issued a conditional commitment for an 80 percent guarantee on a $54.5 million loan.
The financing will help Sapphire Energy, Inc., build and operate an integrated algal biorefinery in Columbus. Federal officials say it's all part of an effort to provide renewable commercial-scale biofuels.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The ranks of America's poor are greater than previously known, reaching a new level of 49.1 million — or 16 percent — due to rising medical costs and other expenses that make it harder for people to stay afloat, according to new census estimates.
The numbers released Monday are part of a first-ever supplemental poverty measure aimed at providing a fuller picture of poverty. It is considered experimental and does not replace the Census Bureau's official poverty formula, which continues to determine eligibility and distribution of billions of dollars in federal aid for the poor.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Hiring slowed even more in October as employers faced more uncertainty over future economic growth.
The Labor Department says the economy added just 80,000 jobs last month, the fewest in four months and below September's revised total of 158,000. The unemployment rate, however, dipped to 9 percent.
Businesses added 104,000 jobs, below September's total. Government shed 24,000 jobs.
The report included some positive signs. The government revised August and September's figures upward by 102,000. Average hourly earnings rose. And the unemployment rate fell for the first time since July, because a separate survey of households showed more people found work.
Los Alamos, already tagged as the sixth richest county in the U.S., now has another distinction after being ranked number one in terms of "Where Millionaires Live in America."
The article published in the November edition of Kiplinger takes a look at a report produced by Phoenix Marketing International, a company that keeps tabs on wealthy households. The firm also ranks 942 towns and cities by the concentration of millionaires.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Federal Reserve sketched a bleaker outlook Wednesday for the economy, which it thinks will grow much more slowly and face higher unemployment than it had estimated in June.
The Fed's gloomier forecast shows that the recovery from the recession has continued to fall short of expectations. Some economists said it makes the Fed more likely to act further to try to boost the economy, though probably not until early next year.
One option would be a program similar to the Fed's $600 billion in Treasury bond purchases, which it completed in June. Some economists think the Fed could buy mortgage-backed securities instead, which could more directly support the depressed housing market by lowering loan rates.
NEW YORK (AP) — Bank of America Corp. is scrapping its plan to charge a $5 monthly fee for debit card purchases after outraged customers threatened an exodus.
The about-face comes as customers across the country petitioned the bank and mobilized to close their accounts in favor of credit unions and community banks. The outcry prompted other major banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co., to cancel trial tests of their own debit card fees.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Good news for seniors: The government says Medicare's basic monthly premium will rise less than expected next year, by $3.50 for most.
It could be good, too, for President Barack Obama and Democrats struggling for older Americans' votes in a close election.
At $99.90 per month, the 2012 Part B premium for outpatient care will be about $7 less than projected as recently as May. The additional money that most seniors will pay works out to about 10 percent of the average Social Security cost-of-living increase they'll also be due.
Some recently enrolled younger retirees will actually pay less. They were charged $115.40 a month this year, and they'll see that go down to $99.90.
The latest installment in a joint AP-APME project examining the aging of the baby boomers and the impact that this so-called silver tsunami will have on the communities in which they live.
WASHINGTON (AP) — As baby boomers look ahead to retirement, they'd prefer a home that is affordable, accessible to medical care and close to family. But an Associated Press-LifeGoesStrong.com poll finds that amid a shaky economy, few think it's likely they'll move in retirement.
MESA, Ariz. (AP) — Like just about everyone in the Phoenix area, Jen Pollock has lost several neighbors to foreclosure and short sales. And, like hundreds of thousands of others in Arizona, Pollock and her husband are upside down on their mortgage, owing about twice as much as their suburban house is now worth.
They don't want to walk away from it. They just wish someone would let them renegotiate their mortgage.

I have a homework problem which I feel should be simple but is actually surprisingly tricky. This is why I love math sometimes....
Let $X$ be a normed linear space. Suppose $\|\cdot\|_1$ and $\|\cdot\|_2$ are two norms on $X$ such that $x_n\to x_0$ in $\|\cdot\|_1$ if and only if $x_n\to x_0$ in $\|\cdot\|_2$.
Show that $\|\cdot\|_1$ and $\|\cdot\|_2$ are equivalent.
What I have done so far is show that if the topologies induced by $\|\cdot\|_1$ and $\|\cdot\|_2$ are equal, then the norms are equivalent. So I feel that this is only a partial solution because I have failed to show that the given assumption about convergence implies that the induced topologies by each norm are equal. I think this is a well known fact but I should still prove it.
I start by taking a $\|\cdot\|_1$-neighborhood $U$ of $0$ in $X$. Now I would need to show that for any $x\in U$, there is a $\|\cdot\|_2$-neighborhood $V$ of $x$ such that $V\subset U$. This would establish that every $\|\cdot\|_1$-open set is $\|\cdot\|_2$-open. The other direction would be exactly the same. Now I feel pretty dense here (not in the topological sense either) but I can't see how to apply the sequence condition. Any hints or advice on how to do this?

Hull FC 46 Bradford Bulls 6
Jamie Langley was carried off on a stretcher as the Bulls were subjected to a thumping defeat in their final pre-season friendly at Hull FC.
He was knocked out cold in the fourth minute following a heavy clash of heads with former Bulls forward Lee Radford, who was playing in his own testimonial game.
Langley lay on the turf for around five minutes before Mick Potter's men, who trailed after just two minutes through Kirk Yeaman's try, hit back through Jason Crookes' interception score.
Yet that was as good as it got for the Bulls as they went on to concede two more tries before half-time and a further six in the second half.
It was a chastening debut for former Crusaders duo Elliot Kear and Jarrod Sammut as Potter's side struggled badly to stem the black and white tide.
Bradford were guilty of handling errors throughout and the defensive weaknesses which undermined them so often last season resurfaced again - with the Super League opener against Catalan Dragons now just a week away.

Baseball Falls at No. 6 Florida, 15-3
March 19, 2002
GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Sixth-ranked Florida scored four or more runs in three different innings to post a 15-3 win over the University of Massachusetts baseball team here on Tuesday evening. With the loss, UMass falls to 5-5. The Gators improve to 19-3 with the win.
Florida scored six runs in the bottom of the fifth to blow the door open against UMass starter Scott Ratliff (Helendale, Calif.). The Gators, who have now scored 10 or more runs in 17 of 22 games this season, benefited from three walks and a three-run blast by Pat Osborn in the fifth.
With the loss, Ratliff's record in evened at 1-1, while Florida starter Matt Foster picked up the win in his first appearance of the year.
After retiring UMass in order in the first, Florida jumped on the Minutemen early, scring four runs in the bottom of the frame. The Gators scored runs on a bases-loaded hit batsman followed by a wild-pitch, then scored a pair of runs as a Mike Kulak (Bristol, Conn.) throw got away from the centerfielder and escaped to the UMass dugout.
The Minutemen answered with a run in the top of the second, as sophomore second baseman Adam Stojanowski (West Roxbury) singled through the left side, scoring junior catcher Chris Morgan (Cranston, R.I.).
After UMass scored a run in the top of the seventh, Florida sealed the game with four runs in the bottom of the frame. The Minutemen also added a run in the top of the ninth.

PULLMAN, Wash. - Nonconference road matches against Oklahoma State, Cal State Fullerton and UC Irvine, as well as five Pac-12 home matches highlight the 2013 Washington State soccer schedule, Cougar Head Coach Keidane McAlpine announced, Friday.
Washington State will spend its first-three weekends in Washington and Idaho. The Cougars open their season at Seattle, Aug. 23 before entertaining Idaho, Aug. 30 (3 p.m.) and Eastern Washington, Sept. 1 (Sept. 1) during their first-home weekend of the season. Boise State will host Washington State, Sept. 5 (5 p.m. MT/4 p.m. PT) as part of the Broncos' tournament that will also see the Cougars take on Weber State, Sept. 8 (noon MT/11 a.m. PT).
"Seattle played very well against the Pac-12 last year, and is a very difficult place to go play," McAlpine said. "I am very excited for our Cougs on the west side. Having a chance to open and close our season in Seattle is a great opportunity for them to see us in their backyard."
The Cougars return home to play UNLV, Sept. 13 (3 p.m.) before playing six-straight matches on the road. Washington State closes its nonconference schedule against Oklahoma State, Sept. 15 (1 p.m. CT/11 a.m. PT), Cal State Fullerton, Sept. 20 (6 p.m.) and UC Irvine, Sept. 22 (2 p.m.) followed by Pac-12 matches against Oregon, Sept. 27 (7 p.m.), UCLA, Oct. 4 (7 p.m.) and USC, Oct. 6 (1 p.m.)
"The hardest part of our schedule is made up of six away games in a row," McAlpine said. "I think that stretch of games is also the place that we will find the most out about our team. There is not a break in the schedule and it is perfect preparation closing the nonconference against three incredibly tough teams that all have the ability to make an NCAA run."
Washington State plays its Pac-12 home opener against Utah, Oct. 11 (2 p.m.) and hosts Colorado, Oct. 13 (1 p.m.). The Cougars close their homestand with Oregon State, Oct. 18 (2 p.m.)
Road matches against Arizona State, Oct. 25 (7 p.m.) and Arizona, Oct. 27 (1 p.m.) precede the Cougars' final-home weekend. Washington State welcomes California, Nov. 1 (2 p.m.) and Stanford, Nov. 3 (1 p.m.) to Pullman before heading to Washington, Nov. 8 (7 p.m.) to close the regular season.
"The home schedule is highlighted by a weekend against California and Stanford late in the year," McAlpine said. "Those games are going to be amazing because we are playing two of the top teams from the 2012 season, and that part of the year everyone is trying to position themselves for a Pac-12 Conference championship and NCAA berths!"
McAlpine added, "Ending the year with Washington is always special and, once again, it presents a chance for us to play in front of our Seattle area fans. The only thing missing is learning what amazing games are going to be broadcast by the Pac-12 Networks. There is nothing like playing on television for our student-athletes, school and fans!"

After a new mother gives birth in a Fresno or Clovis hospital, there will likely be some general support of her first breastfeeding attempts while she and baby are in the hospital. Oftentimes, the labor and delivery nurse can advise the new mom on basic latch on principles, and should also encourage her to begin the first feeding soon after the birth. Once both mother and baby have recovered for an hour or so, they may be moved to a postpartum room, where another nurse may assume their care. These postpartum nurses will hopefully provide additional evidence-based information about the baby's latch, feeding frequency, and other basics of breastfeeding. In most of this area's hospitals, a brief visit from a lactation specialist may also occur sometime before mom and baby go home. During this visit, there may be a check of the latch, as well as brief discussion of some of the common problems that may occur along the way. The mother's obstetrician or the baby's pediatrician may also provide input about breastfeeding prior to discharging them home.
With all of these hospital-based breastfeeding interventions, it may seem that the mother and baby couplet are destined to succeed in breastfeeding as they head home. But statistically, this is not the case. There is an overwhelmingly large number of women who initiate breastfeeding at the time of their baby's birth, but who resort to formula feeding by the time they are arriving home from the hospital. The truth is that most new mothers and babies need additional and more extensive support and assistance in order to achieve breastfeeding success. Sometimes, women report that while they received the input of many different practitioners in the hospital setting, this input was at times conflicting and confusing. As one mother reflected back on her experience she said, "One nurse would say to hold my baby this way, and the next one would tell me a different way. After a while, I didn't know what to do." Additionally, many of the challenges arise just when moms are at their peak of postpartum fatigue, so the idea of continuing the breastfeeding plan seems overwhelming.
This is why it is crucial to provide new mothers with a breastfeeding resource to turn to after they return home from the hospital. When focused, personalized lactation support arrives at the appropriate time, things can easily be turned around for the better. In Fresno, there are various breastfeeding resources serving the needs of local mothers and babies, ranging from La Leche League meetings to the International Board Certified Lactation Consultant who makes house calls. Once mom and baby have settled into their home again, with all of its familiar comforts, their ability to focus on breastfeeding is often strengthened, so the in-home lactation support is typically more effective than other attempts which may have occurred along the way. The important thing to remember is that when breastfeeding is not progressing as it should, quality help is important to obtain, and this service is definitely available in the Valley.

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Porsha Stewart was shocked when she learned that Kordell Stewart had filed for divorce behind her back, and shared the news on Twitter. The two didn't have a prenup in place and Porsha had to fight to get what she could get out of marriage. However, it appears that now the divorce has been finalized, she didn't get much out of him. In fact, it relates back to her previous tax issues. According to a new Wetpaint Entertainment report published on March 12, "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Porsha Stewart didn't get much in her divorce settlement.
Apparently, the judge has ruled that the Housewife won't be getting any alimony, retirement money, cash-out, health insurance, or houses from her former NFL player ex-husband. If that wasn't enough, she will actually be required to pay her own credit card balances. This seems fair because the cards are in her name, but it could be bad if Kordell forced her to buy things on them.
But Porsha does get to keep her $19K engagement ring. It is up to her whether she wants to keep it or sell it. She can also hold on to her personal items, including jewelry, clothes, and her Mercedes. What do you think of her getting nothing from the divorce?

Today's special bike has been created by German specialist Lars Justinger of Brauchi's Bikes, and is based on a Kawasaki W650. According to its maker, this bike is neither a 'cafe racer' nor a 'brat', it is a "JagdBobber", meaning a bike that uses the style and structure of a cafe racer but with clip-ons and fat, bobber-like wheels. What Mr.Justinger had in mind was to create a bike that looked like a crossbred between a Harley WL and a classic Norton/Triumph model, and to make his vision come true he opted for a Kawasaki W650, which he transformed in the motorcycle we can admire in these pictures.
The rear section has been made out of a Yamaha XS650SE fuel tank, while the actual tank of the 'JagdBobber' comes from a XS750. Mr.Justinger wanted its creature to look vintage, to have that sort of 'used look' that he thought was the most fitting for his baby, so he went for a rattlecan paint job and a pretty original Red Baron color scheme, which also includes a pair of Maltese crosses on the tail.
Talking about the rear section again, we really liked the LED strip that makes for the bike's tail light. Nice touch indeed. Red handles, low wing mirrors and the number plate holder placed on the side complete the outstanding look of this masterpiece. To find out more about Mr.Justinger's work, check out the pretty interesting Brauchi's Bikes blog.

College Hockey:Harvard Dominates RPI
TROY, N.Y. — Five different players scored and senior Kevin Du had three assists as Harvard University defeated Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), 5-1, in a Division I ECAC Hockey League men's hockey team game at the Houston Field House on Friday night.
The Crimson led 5-0 before Kirk MacDonald scored his sixth goal of the season on the power play to break freshman netminder Kyle Richter's shutout attempt.
Alex Meintel scored the first goal of the game as he received a pass from Du. Meintel got past an Engineers defenseman and went in alone on Engineers goaltender Mathias Lange. Meintel put the puck on his backhand and lifted it over Lange's glove for a 1-0 lead.
The Crimson got two goals in the second period and led 3-0 after two. The first was a power-play goal by Brian McCafferty, who snuck in from his defensive position and received a cross-slot pass from Du. He one-timed the puck past Lange.
Later in the period Ryan Maki found the puck to the left of Lange and chopped at it, causing it to bounce past Lange for the three-goal lead.
The Crimson scored twice more in the third period for a 5-0 lead. Jon Pelle received a pass in the faceoff circle to the right of Lange and one-timed a shot that floated past the netminder for a power play goal. Then Steve Mandes was waiting in the slot as Tyler Magura sent a pass from behind the net that Mandes one-timed.
The Engineers broke Richter's shutout attempt when Jake Luthi took a shot from the blueline on the power play that MacDonald tipped past Richter with 4:40 remaining in the game. Paul Kerins also assisted on the play.
Richter made 16 saves for the victory while Lange stopped 22 in the loss. Harvard was 2-for-6 on the power play and the Engineers were 1-for-8.
The Engineers (5-8-2, 1-3-3 ECACHL) host league opponent Dartmouth on Saturday night while the Crimson (6-10-0, 4-7-0 ECACHL) plays at Union. Both games begin at 7pm.

Interview with Gabe Diani: The Selling
Some of the most interesting indie films turn to Kickstarter to raise the funds they need for production and post production. Gabe Diani recently launched a campaign for the film, "The Selling" (directed by Emily Lou) which has already garnered attention and been given many awards at film festivals. This clever horror-comedy film (about a real-estate agent trying to sell a haunted house) has already been filmed and is turning to Kickstarter to raise $25,000 for a limited theatrical release. We had a chance to talk to Gabe about the film and its influences.
Q: Where did the idea for this film come from? What is your background in film-making?
Gabe: The director EMILY LOU and I went to college together. She called me up and said she wanted to direct a film and wanted me to write and star in it. She had an empty house in Northern California available to shoot in and I loved ghost movies so I said, "How about a movie about a Real Estate Agent trying to sell a haunted house?" I had made web series called Mary Olson but didn't have any experience in features at that point. But I do now!
Q: How would you categorize your movie with regard to genre?
Gabe: It's a horror comedy but the emphasis is definitely on the comedy. There's not a lot of blood and gore. We liken it to a sort of modern take on the old "scare comedies" of Abbott and Costello. We'd say it's appropriate for most kids over the age of 10. It's spooky but not scary enough to ruin their lives.
Q: Who do you expect your audience will be? Who are you trying to reach out to?
Gabe: Our core audience is really people who love things like "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Doctor Who," "Shaun of the Dead," and "Ghostbusters."
Q: What is the draw for your audience? What makes your film unique?
Gabe: We've always said the film is the star. It's a concept movie about a real estate agent trying to sell a haunted house that's a bit of a throwback to 80s high concept comedies like "Ghostbusters." Studios just aren't making movies like this very much right now. There are a lot of laughs, scares, and heart. Also, we managed to do it all with no swearing.
Q: Did you draw influences for this film from other films? Which ones? Are there any specific directors you draw inspiration from?
Gabe: The film is a huge love letter to just about every haunted house movie ever made. We drew from "The Shining," "The Haunting," "The Exorcist," "The Legend of Hell House," "The Amityville Horror," and "Poltergeist." I'm certain I'm forgetting some. From a comedic point of view we drew from "Ghostbusters," "Shaun of the Dead," the Abbott and Costello "scare comedies" of the 40s, and the Don Knotts classic "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken."
Q: Are there any specific locations you want to film at or have filmed at? What makes these locations special to you and the project?
Gabe: The Real Estate office we shot in is owned by my landlord and is the Hollywoodland Realty agency…you know, the Hollywoodland Realty that built that big sign that used to say "Hollywoodland" and now says "Hollywood."

Another One Bites The Dust
Rangers coach Tom Renney was fired today. What are your thoughts on the move?
When it comes to psyche, the Panthers certainly are in a better place right now than two of the other teams they're competing with for a playoff spot — New York and Pittsburgh. Do you see the firings in those two cities as smart moves that'll help those teams or do you see them as desperation moves?
Personally, I think it's desperation on the part of both.

There are more than 4,000 people with electricity in the Greater Oklahoma City Metro Area. This power outage is also causing low water pressure and no water at all for some in the impacted area. According to a March 1 report by KFOR News in Oklahoma City, it is unknown when the problem will be fixed.
All of this is just hours before a winter storm is expected in the Oklahoma. The wind chill is expected to be at or below zero tonight and tomorrow. Snow, sleet and freezing rain is expected throughout most of the state. Only the far southeastern portion of Oklahoma appears to be safe from the cold. However, residents in southeastern Oklahoma are being told to expect rain and thunder.
Crews from OG&E are currently working on getting power restored. At the time of publication, they had yet to find the cause of the power outage. Residents in south Oklahoma City, Norman, Little Axe and Choctaw are hoping power and water are restored before the latest winter storm hits.

On Aug. 7, 2014 Examiner Dorri Olds spoke with members of the cast of "Frank," a British indie film. Those in attendance were actors Michael Fassbender, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Domhnall Gleeson, plus director Lenny Abrahamson ("What Richard Did") and co-writer Jon Ronson ("The Men Who Stare At Goats").
Fassbender plays the title character, a musician who's not quite right in the head. Frank wears a gigantic paper mache head all the time. He wears it when he sleeps, eats, performs and even in the shower. What that means is that Fassbender's gorgeous face is hidden under the orb. Sigh.
One great surprise is Fassbender's voice. It's a rich baritone reminiscent of Jim Morrison of The Doors. Because Fassbender cannot rely on using his face to convey emotions, he had to use body language. The gifted actor plays that role just as well as any other, including his Academy Award-nominated role as the cruel slave owner in "12 Years a Slave."
The band has an intentionally unpronounceable name, The Soronprfbs. Maggie Gyllenhaal plays Clara, a theramin-player filled with hostility. Writer Jon Ronson said, "The only reason that Clara plays the theramin in the film is that I loved the line, 'Stay away from my fucking theramin.'"
Scoot McNairy is superb as Don, a band member with a sexual penchant for mannequins. The story is told through the perspective of Jon (Domhnall Gleeson), a lonely wannabe keyboardist. Jon winds up in the band by chance when he happens to meet Don right after the band's previous keyboard player attempted suicide by trying to drown himself in the ocean. The band needs a replacement in a hurry and Jon is Jonny on the spot.
"Frank" is fiction, inspired by Frank Sidebottom, the persona of British cult musician and comedian Chris Sievey. Ronson said Frank was also thought up from twinges of musicians Daniel Johnston and Captain Beefheart. The idea came from Ronson's memoir. Years ago, Ronson was the keyboard player in Sidebottom's band.
This is an odd, quirky film that's not for everyone but those who love it, love it. And, even f it's not your thing, chances are you'll still find some entertainment value in it. There are plenty of different ingredients: comedy, drama, and music.
Asked about whether it was a relief to be out from under the head Fassbender said, "It was hot and sweaty in there. Sometimes if you're running around, you can't really breathe as well inside it, but I really enjoyed having the head on. I actually wanted to bring it on to my next job but they wouldn't let me."

Gyllenhaal said, "Every time you work on something it's going to be a collaboration of the people you're working with. You're like, 'Okay, Michael Fassbender and Domhnall Gleeson are going to be in this movie,' and you have kind of an idea of what that'll be like and then you get there and they are themselves and the reality of that is always going to be different than what you'd expected. Then you have to think, 'How are we going to tell the story with this group of people?' That's always the most interesting part of it; how things shift and change and turn out different than you thought they would. That's where the life comes from."
Lenny Abrahamson explained why he prefers to focus on odd characters in his films, "I just think those characters are usually the ones that people don't quite fit. Those characters are usually under an awful lot of pressure or otherwise not acceptable to the mainstream and by looking at the people that don't fit it lets us reflect on all of us. They're also just fascinating characters that I've always been drawn to. Well-adjusted people are hard characters to put in the center of the movie. I don't actually know any but even if I did that would be a hard film to make. I'm always drawn to people that don't fit in for all sorts of reasons."
"Frank" opens in select theaters Friday, Aug. 15 and opens wide nationally on Aug. 29. Rated R. 95 min.
