They're listed as a couple of six-foot quarterbacks.
Drew Brees, 6-0, 209 pounds.
Chase Daniel, 6-0, 225 pounds.
In a portion of preseason banter after Saturday night's preseason skirmish with the Houston Texans at the Superdome, Brees wanted to set the record straight.
"I'm no six-foot quarterback,'' he said, giving you one of those mile-wide smiles. "I'm a half-inch taller than that; I'm a half-inch taller than him.''
All of which, I'm guessing, makes Daniel -- our New Orleans Saints hero of the moment -- an even 6 feet.
Whatever the exact measurements, as you listen to the 23-year-old kid battling to become Coach Sean Payton's backup quarterback, and ask him how tall Brees stands, you have the feeling he measures it more in mile-high miles than inches.
"He's been like a big brother to me,'' Daniel said. "I lean on him. He's always there with advice, how to go about things, how to handle the huddle. Just being around someone like him has been an amazing learning experience.''
And what is Brees saying?
Well, after watching Daniel take over in the second quarter, watching him march New Orleans on drives of 51, 83 and 65 yards -- and finish each march with a touchdown pass -- Brees, still laughing, suggested: "Now our job is to keep Chase humble.''
I can't recall a more interesting fight for the backup quarterback slot on the Saints. When the San Diego Chargers shows up Saturday at the Superdome, the guess is Payton will try to give Pat Ramsey as many snaps as possible to see if he can match -- or surpass -- his impressive performance against New England when he logged more time than Daniel in the first preseason game.
The interesting thing about this preseason battle is it comes at a time Payton is not focusing on the Chargers this week or the Tennessee Titans next week.
He's thinking only of Minnesota on Sept. 9, as the Vikings also are preparing for the Saints in both teams' regular-season opener at the Superdome.
What Daniel's three quarters against the Texans demonstrated was the value of having a Brees on board, someone happy to sometimes fill a role as player/coach.
As happy as Payton was with Daniel's effort in New Orleans' 38-20 victory, he had to feel even happier with the way his No. 1 offense rebounded from an awful three-and-out start against the Patriots.
Significantly, the opening 11-play march that covered 72 yards and used up six minutes was more run than pass.
"I liked the balance, and I liked the way we handled third down,'' Payton said.
When Brees got a second chance, following a muffed punt by the Texans, a 15-yard push was highlighted by an underhanded 10-yard pass to Marques Colston by a stumbling quarterback who ended things with a 1-yard leap into the end zone.
"It all started with me tripping on the turf,'' Brees said. "I tried to make it look easy. The last two plays were sort of bam-bam.''
In a way, it was the kind of bam-bam mini-drive that recalled moments of the 2009 season.
In one corner of the Saints locker-room, linebackers Jonathan Vilma and Scott Shanle took a moment to go back in time.
"The defense went out and set a tempo early on, which we didn't do against New England,'' Vilma said. "I don't look for anyone on this team not to come back and play with the same determination we showed last season. Sure, we're gonna be a marked team every time we play, but that's part of the game. That's what makes it interesting about being a defending champion.''
Shanle said the first thing he looked for as training camp opened were signs of "focus.''
"We had been through an all-time high, '' he said. "The parades, fans telling us how great we were, what we meant to our city. It's something we can't change. And why should we? We're going to live with those precious moments the rest of our lives. Coach Payton wanted us to enjoy those moments.
"Now, from what I see, he has brought us back to reality, the reality of a new season -- and a greater challenge. When it comes to taking the pulse of a team, coach is terrific, the best I have been around. Now the emphasis is all about us believing in one thing: We don't want to be remembered as one-hit wonders; we want to remembered as champions, so it's all up to us.''

Anyone have any luck with this? I've found a number of articles which point to an application uSirius which is apparently discontinued (bought out by Apple or something it looks like) but it is nowhere I have found.
Basically I know media center has some baked in functionality for XM radio streaming, but nothing for Sirius radio. Anyone have any luck with this?

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak has been working hard on parenting her children, working on her businesses and taking care of her husband. It is no secret that Kim has been getting pregnant rather easily, so she is ready to take action so she doesn't end up with a seventh child. According to a new Bravo report published on Feb. 5, "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak is now joking about her fertility because she gets pregnant rather easily.
The two have just welcomed two children into their world, as she gave birth to twins in November. The two have two sons together, and Kim herself has two daughters, so six children seems to be enough for this couple. "We'll do something permanent because I'm so fertile," she reveals to Life & Style. She hinted that Kroy needs undergo a "snip snip" so they can stop having children, but still enjoy one another. Since meeting each other a few years ago, Kim has given birth to four children. She has two girls from previous relationships.
Kroy plays for the Atlanta Falcons, but he has been injured for the past season. So, while he is at home, it is the perfect time for him to undergo a little surgery to prevent more children.
What do you think?

Lately, I've been encountering a new phenomenon when I go on press trips: every little venue insists on taking a picture of me. Why? Is it to prove to some state functionary that I actually showed up? I hate it. I really do. Nothing I politely say -- and none of my less subtle glares -- gets me out of it.
I work very hard on press trips, which are almost invariably grueling: up and checked out at the crack of dawn, out and about until almost midnight. After actual writing, charging the iPhone, packing, researching . . . who has time for dolling up for photos? It depresses me to look like crap in a picture. I once threw out a whole roll of film my dad developed back in the day.
Certainly, one of the things I'd like to avoid in a picture is the appearance of a fat face. When traveling, your face can get puffy and swollen from a number of causes: lack of sleep, salty food, booze, cheap hotel laundry detergents, cheap hotel pillows, lack of circulation in sealed up rooms.
For a long time, I thought there was nothing that could be done about it all! Recently, I had occasion to really wish all the damage could be eased away: an important meeting. Fortunately, there's now Sculpt Secret! It really does help and I was glad to be hosted to experience it.
The gel-creme comes in a perfect for 3-1-1 carry on travel bags and that's a good thing: you can work on your face even while traveling! No, it's not like having surgery, but it takes away that damage that you may have recently inflicted on yourself through a harsh lifestyle. Certainly, improving your lifestyle (and cutting down on carbs, salt, booze, etc.) will only help the situation.
You already know where on your face you need to use the product and massage it in -- everyone's different -- but you already have been staring at the problem for a while.
It'll give you confidence in taking travel selfies and non-selfies! This is what they say about it:
The secret behind Sculpt Secret is its exclusive IsoSculpt Complex which harnesses the benefits of a rare, purified seaweed extract harvested from the Mediterranean Ocean at specific times of the year. This precious ingredient goes through a patented nano-filtration process that isolates the most bioactive parts of the plant.
The prized extract and other powerful botanical extracts such as nutrient-rich Gotu Kola extract—a Malaysian plant extract packed with healthy minerals and Vitamins A, B, C, and D—join together to promote drainage within skin cells to targeted areas for slimming, smoothing and rejuvenating the appearance of the skin.

Elder John H. Fisher of Graham, Texas, was born 1860 in Texas. At the age of fifteen he realized a sweet joy in hearing the words, "Trust in the Lord," spoken in his heart and mind. At the time he could not call it a hope but found comfort in it later. When about nineteen years of age he united with the Missionary or New School Baptists, attended one of their seminaries and began preaching for them. But after a few years he left them and united with the Primitive or Old School Baptists in Kentucky. He pastored several churches in the western part of Texas but spent most of his time serving the Mt. Zion Primitive Baptist Church, near Graham, Texas.
Elder Fisher wrote the books, "My Reasons for Leaving the Missionary Baptists.", and "A Treatise on the Book of Revelation," and numerous scriptural articles and pamphlets. He founded the religious periodical, "The Primitive Baptist Review" which was later changed to "The Banner of Peace."
Elder Fisher left a large supply of wonderful articles defending the truths of the Holy Scriptures. Please return as these works come online.
The Primitive or Old School Baptists cling to the doctrines and practices held by Baptist Churches throughout America at the close of the Revolutionary War. This site is dedicated to providing access to our rich heritage, with both historic and contemporary writings.

An ESPN report on May 3, 2014, sets the stage for what NBA playoffs fans can expect to see when they tune to ABC (national broadcast/free live stream) to watch Game 7 between the Nets and Raptors (TV start time: 1 p.m. ET). It's do-or-die time for these franchises, as the winner moves on to face the Miami Heat in the second-round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, while the loser goes home empty handed.
Basketball fans will fill the Air Canada Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, anxious to see if the young (3-3) Toronto Raptors will prove doubters wrong by eliminating the more experienced (3-3) Brooklyn Nets. Opening tipoff is scheduled for 1:10 p.m. EST following the conclusion of ABC's NBA Countdown (12:30 p.m. EST).
For the visiting Nets, a win today would represent the first Game 7 playoff win in the franchise's history. Nevertheless, as illustrated by Newsday on May 4, with "The Truth" and the "Big Ticket" in the lineup, Brooklyn holds a significant edge over Toronto in terms of experience in series finales.
With a combined 14 game-sevens under their belts, Paul Pierce (8) and Kevin Garnett (6) have twice as much experience than Toronto's entire roster – which have only gone the distance seven times in the NBA playoffs. However, one of the things that play into the opposition's favor is the fact that first-year NBA head coaches are only 5-16 all-time in Game 7s.
Having that said, the Raptors will have to embrace the role of underdogs yet again in order to extend their season, says the National Post. Despite being at home, in the eyes of most NBA aficionados, Toronto comes in projected to lose this winner-takes-all showdown with Brooklyn.
However, NBA oddsmakers at ESPN know better, as they have the home team favored by a basket. According to the latest point spreads, the Raptors [-3] will have a long-distance bucket to cover, while the Nets [+3] that much of a cushion to yield a winning bet.
In addition, the OVER/UNDER is set at a combined total of 189 points and straight-up betting lines go as follows: Brooklyn [+130] vs. Toronto [-140]. Finally, to illustrate how the general consensus does favor Brooklyn over Toronto, here are some intriguing statistics to consider:
Point Spread Action Prior to TV Scheduled Start Time
Nets spread: 57 percent.
Raptors spread: 43 percent.
OVER wagers: 54 percent.
UNDER wagers: 46 percent.
ATS Trends Prior to ABC's Free Live Stream Online
Nets are 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 road games against teams with a home winning percentages of greater than .600.
Nets are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 Sunday games.
Nets are 21-8 ATS in their last 29 games playing on 1 days rest.
Raptors are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 Sunday games.
Raptors are 18-6-2 ATS in their last 26 games following a straight-up loss.
Raptors are 3-7-2 ATS in their last 12 games overall.
Nets-Raptors 2014 NBA Playoffs Key Stats for Game 7

Marshall Efron Movies and Career Information

Los Angeles
Feb 03, 1938
Los Angeles
Marshall Efron is an American actor and humorist originally known for his work on the listener-sponsored Pacifica radio stations WBAI New York and KPFK Los Angeles, and later for the PBS television show The Great American Dream Machine. At WBAI, Efron was a frequent guest on Steve Post's & Bob Fass's shows, along with left-wing/counter-culture figures such as Paul Krassner. One memorable broadcast had Efron and Krassner filling in for the vacationing Fass, and identifying themselves as Columbia University students who had taken the station over as part of the Columbia University protests of 1968; although regular listeners were very familiar with the voices of Krassner and Efron, police officers responded three different times during the broadcast to reports from listeners who thought the "takeover" was a legitimate event. Efron also produced features of his own such as A Satirical View. Marshal Efron is the author of a number of children's works such as Bible Stories You Can't Forget: No Matter How Hard You Try. He also starred in the Sunday-morning television program Marshall Efron's Illustrated, Simplified, and Painless Sunday School on CBS from 1973 to 1977.

Today was an absolutely beautiful autumn day. In the grand scheme of things, if I were allowed to plan the weather for this time of year I would ask for exactly what we got today. While the air was a bit cool, it was nowhere near as cold as it can be in mid November. I even saw someone walking up St George Street in Annapolis Royal wearing a pair of shorts. While the shorts were perhaps pushing matters a bit to the extreme, I do appreciate the attempt to preserve the warmer weather a bit longer. Throughout the day the skies were a beautiful blue with hardly a cloud to be seen. Top things off with a bonfire enjoyed by kids and friends and it was an ideal autumn day.
Earlier in the day when I was trying to make the most of the weather, my old friend (pictured below) and I decided to tromp around the edges of our property to see what was to be seen. The late fall is an interesting time to take pictures because most of the flowers have died and the colourful leaves have fallen from the trees. There are still interesting pictures, but you need to look more carefully once the bounty of the summer is gone.
All for now,

This weekend was more difficult than I had imagined. My family celebrated Zaair's birthday without him. But God is good. The Lord nor Zaair's memory would allow me to go to bed crying another night.
More than anyone else in the world, Zaair could make me laugh. Once we were visiting a friend in south jersey when he was about 4 years old (His daughter Avyanna is just like him). Zaair was laying on the floor watching television when I told to him that it was time to leave. He did not move. He said, "I got a headache". I said, "Come on Zi, I'll get you some medicine, but we have to go". He looked at me and said very slowly, "I said, I got a headache". I then told him, "Okay, I am going to get my wooden spoon to heal your headache". He jumped up and said, "I'm healed, I'm healed, hallelujah".
Just last year he told me about his Nana's wooden spoon. He said, "Aunt Mo you just threatened with the wooden spoon. Nana did not make threats. My Nana would be stirring lemonade one minute and whooping your behind the next minute. She would then rinse the spoon off and go back to stirring and make the best the lemonade in world!
Happy Birthday, Zaair. If I live a thousand years, I'll be missing you...

In the upright position, the justice card brings to mind a sense of legality. This is a level headed fairness. What is deemed right by the laws and rules of the given society that are questioning the situation is what matters. We see in the hand of the figure in the card, a balance that is even and straight. This is a just ruling. What happens though when the justice card is reversed? Now we have a sense that something is off. Something is just not right. Justice has not been served.
In the reversed position the justice card leaves us feeling a sense of mistrial. Something did not go quite right. There is a sense of things having gone wrong. Not all of the evidence was presented. There has been some sort of trickery involved. We do not get satisfaction from the trial, be it in our favor or otherwise. There is a general lack of closure felt. If there is a sense of victory at all, it a stolen victory. This victory was not earned and it is not deserved. It was taken out of the hands of the deserving for the entirely self-serving purposes of the victory thief.
Lady Justice, as depicted in the Rider Waite justice card is an unwavering and stern authority figure, in the upright position. When reversed, however, she becomes corrupt. Just as the hanged man card depicts an upside down figure who sees another perspective on the world and the situation at hand, so does Lady Justice when reversed. Upside down, she no longer sees the perfect fairness of what is right and what is wrong in the situation. No, now she sees the inverse of justice, and this is what she will offer.
In the reversed position, justice has gone awry. It has become a mockery. For justice to be served, Lady Justice must remain upright and in good standing. The trust people place in her must remain intact. She must always act with integrity. Without integrity, justice will always be questioned and closure will be elusive.
When the justice card comes up for you in the reversed position, ponder if integrity is intact. Are you trustworthy? Are the others involved in the given situation? Is there a hidden agenda involved? Just how well do you feel justice is being served here?

John Newman had the fans in The Ellen Show audience clapping along with the star when he performed Love Me Again. The young British singer has over 72 million views on YouTube and made his debut on American television on the talk show on Tuesday. The artist performed his hit live and even had a full band on stage for a perfect segment!
"He's a very talented singer from Britain with over 100 million views on YouTube," said Ellen DeGeneres on The Ellen Show introducing John Newman. As luck would have it, the studio audience not only got to see a great performance, they also took home a copy of Newman's latest CD.
The 23-year-old entertainer had everyone grooving during his performance. The singer not only had amazing vocals, but he brilliantly danced during the performance as well. The music the star performed was described as bebop meets pop, dance and soul for his unique sounding single.
The viral YouTube artist impressed the fans of daytime television and there is hope the star will be seen around the Grammy Awards too. With such an interesting music, there has to be room for this talented entertainer.
Take a look at the video clip of John Newman performing Loves Me Again on The Ellen Show.

Why Study Spanish?
Spanish is spoken by approximately 400 million people in 21 countries. The study of Spanish opens doors not only for international business, service, teaching and travel, but it also promotes cross-cultural understanding within the United States. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the need for translators for languages such as Spanish will remain strong, and the job market for all translators and interpreters is expected to increase 24 percent through 2016. The U.S. has the fifth largest Spanish-speaking population in the world after Mexico, Spain, Argentina and Colombia. No matter which career you choose, you are likely to interact with Spanish speakers.
Spanish at Heidelberg
All Heidelberg Spanish majors spend a semester abroad, living with a host family and studying in a Spanish-speaking country. This total immersion experience is the most effective way to become fluent in the language and to feel truly "at home" in the host culture. While abroad, students live the cultural experiences that others only read about. At a cost that is comparable to spending a semester on Heidelberg's home campus in Ohio, this study abroad experience is a cornerstone of the Berg Spanish major.
Heidelberg students also can participate in a service-learning course, preparing and implementing enrichment activities for a summer program for immigrant children in communities along the U.S.-Mexico border.
In addition, Heidelberg students of Spanish can practice their language skills at the Spanish Conversation Table, which meets weekly for coffee, snacks and conversation in Spanish. Spanish majors also may choose an internship with En Camino, a local agency that works in the Spanish-speaking migrant community.

Miami Dolphins LB Jason Taylor, Yeremiah Bell sit out practice; CB Vontae Davis returns
The Miami Dolphins have resumed practice in preparation for their game this weekend at the San Diego Chargers. And in the injury department, seems there's good news and bad.
First the bad: LB Jason Taylor spent the beginning of practice doing rehab work. He was dressed out, but not in a helmet. Instead Taylor wore an orange Dolphins hat while he worked those thick, heavy ropes – one in each hand, up and down and up and down.
In addition to Taylor, S Yeremiah Bell also appears not to be practicing. Bell was not present during the beginning portion of practice – but that doesn't mean he might not return for the portion that media isn't allowed to see. We'll try to get an update on him afterwards.
Now the good: CB Vontae Davis was dressed out and appeared to be practicing in a limited capacity. Davis sat out all of last week with a hamstring injury and didn't play during the Dolphins' 17-16 defeat against the Cleveland Browns.
It's unclear whether Davis will be good to go this week against the Chargers, but the fact that he's back out there is promising. Vernon Carey, who suffered a shoulder injury against the Browns, also appeared to be practicing. Unclear at this point whether he's going in a limited capacity.
As for Tony McDaniel, who suffered a hand injury in the season-opener against the Patriots and hasn't practiced or played since, he was present and dressed out but didn't appear to be working.
Stay tuned for more updates …

Please pick a language
Please pick a language

When selecting an early care and education program for their child, many parents select a program that includes and supports their faith. Some faith-based settings are located in their communities near their home and others are located in urban areas near work-related locations. Faith-based programs are also now an option for parents who receive public assistance for their child's early childhood program.
Faith-based programs are diverse in many ways. They differ by faith, denomination, and philosophy. Parents should first look for a program that supports their personal faith. If their faith has different denomination, that may or may not be a factor. Example: Protestant and Catholic families often cross denominational lines. The philosophy of the program is of the utmost importance when selecting a quality program.
Parents may benefit by using the following guidelines when selecting a faith-based program. Though the guidelines do not guarantee quality, they are key elements to use as quality indicators of faith-based early childhood programs.
Look for:
Programs for younger children (birth to age 2) should be rich with language experiences throughout the day. Programs for preschool age children (ages 3 - K) should offer a literacy and numeracy-rich environment with activities offered in learning centers.
It is important to remember that the total child goes to preschool. With the child goes not only the mental potential, but also the physical, emotional, social and moral/spiritual potential as well. Programs that offer children choices within guidelines, laden with happy experiences and values of faith will enrich your child's learning experiences and awareness of God's love. Choose a faith-based program, which allows your child to develop fully in all five areas of learning. Value the uniqueness of your child and make sure the program you select does too. Take the time to shop around for the faith-based program that offers these valuable assets. You would not shop for a car without asking questions and looking at all the details. Any program that does not welcome your interest, answer your questions, and offer you an invitation to tour the facilities is not the program you want for your child.

I got a LCD back in 2004 ( SyncMaster 710v) . It was working fine, but recently I found it exceptionally glowing, causing great discomfort and tiredness to my eyes.
Since I face the LCD all the time, I'm not sure whether my discomfort is because of long hours facing the LCD, or is it that the LCD is defective? As far as I know LCD should never cause eye strain.

City keep faint fire flickering
- 05 March 2013 08:31
- Posted by @markbooth_mcfc
City's third-successive win and clean sheet dominates the headlines you're waking up to this morning.
The common consensus seems to be that while City were far from their sizzling best, they did more than enough to see off the challenge of Paul Lambert's men at Villa Park.
Respected European football correspondent Andy Brassell was on duty for ESPN and his verdict was in keeping with these sentiments.
"When Tevez gave City the lead in first-half stoppage time it was via a combination with Dzeko, with the former dribbling round Guzan to finish nervelessly after being fed by the latter," Brassell wrote.
"Ciaran Clark and Fabian Delph complained to referee Mike Dean that the Bosnian had fouled the dawdling Villa skipper in the build-up - but without any real conviction, in the manner of a child trying to scam any extra half-hour in front of the television before bed.
"It was a poor manner to allow one of the division's genuine powers to break them, nevertheless, it had been coming.
"The last ten minutes of the half had seen Villa suddenly under siege, a passage of play signalled when Zabaleta made a trademark run inside before Guzan superbly tipped his shot onto the inside of a post and away.
"At the first sign of City showing their admittedly considerable teeth, the home side had curled up into themselves."
Elsewhere, the Manchester Evening News runs with a picture and video spread from Real Madrid's training session at the Etihad Stadium yesterday – the story is worth checking out if only to see Cristiano Ronaldo in a hat that wouldn't look out of place on a French patisserie chef's head.
They of course take on Manchester United in the Champions League this evening.
In other news, Charles Sale reports in today's Daily Mail that a host of Premier League stars are being lined up for a televised Ryder Cup-style golf tournament.
"The Professional Footballers Golf Tournament at the renowned Shadow Creek course over three days starting on June 16 will need marquee football involvement to make it a success," Sale reports.
"Those approached include Steven Gerrard, Carlos Tevez, Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Gareth Bale, Joe Hart, James Milner, Daniel Agger, Phil Jones and David Beckham."
Finally, we know that Diego Maradona has never been shy of an opinion or two but City supporters won't take kindly to the former Argentina boss musing on the prospect of Sergio Aguero leaving Manchester for Real Madrid.
"Kun is the solution for the future of Madrid, and for Ronaldo, the perfect complement," El Diego said.
"Sergio is pure movement, while Benzema and Pipit [Higuain] are two tanks that may impressively drag the defence, yes, but collide with CR7.
"It would be spectacular [for Aguero to join Real]. I see him in Madrid, although it is true that right now he is very happy at City, very happy at the club.
"But if you live in Manchester it is like living in a freezer."
Perhaps that final line is something we can all agree on.

Crew Penelope Mary Janes. Unfortunately they are discontinued and completely impossible to find on eBay in my size, 9.5. If you could find any possible substitutes for my dream shoes, you would make my day! Thanks, Meghan"
Damn you, J. Crew! Quite possibly, some of the cutest shoes ever... and you discontinue them? That's just... grrr. Well, we searched high and low for Mary Janes, color block pumps, and spectator pumps, and found six shoes that might work. Let us know how we did!
1 - DKNYC Women's Claudine Mary Jane Pump ($54 on sale, only left in 9.5!)
2 - Sergio Rossi Spectator Mary Jane Pump ($200)
3 - Luna Rosa Women's Carole Maryjane ($52)
4 - John Fluevog Women's Pearl Hart Mary Jane Pump ($209, in 6 color combos)
5 - Rockabilly Colorblock Pumps ($55)
6 - Sergio Rossi Patent & Suede Mary Jane ($200)
Frustrated in your search for that perfect leather handbag, red stiletto pump, or whatever makes your heart go thump in the night? Send us a request and we might do the shopping work for you in a future Personal Shopper feature!
I can recommend the Luna Rosa shoes - I have them in that shade! The heel is rather high so I don't find them all that comfortable, but the color is just incredible, and looks as good with black or brown tights as with bare legs.
Thanks for your help Outblush! I love the John Fluevog shoes, even if they're not quite the same as the J Crew Mary janes. maybe someday J.crew will someday bring them back!

Released: 2005, Nuclear Blast/Sound Pollution
Rating: 4.0/5
Reviewer: Anders Sandvall
Graveworm have been around for while, the first EP, "ETERNAL WINDS" came in –97 and the year after came the debut album. This Italian band changed record labels to Nuclear Blast and released the studio album ENGRAVED IN BLACK which stayed on the German trend charts for several weeks. They did shows at various festivals during the summer of '03 like Wacken Open Air, Summer Breeze and Metal Fest Vienna and they have toured with acts like Kataklysm and Destruction. Some problems occured during '04 which lead to a member switch. The bands drummer, Martin Innerbichler, left the band because of health problems and was replaced by Moritz Neuner during early '05. Martin simply had to take a time out and it's uncertain if he's ever coming back. Someone who definitly has left the band is the guitar player Steve Unterpertinger. The new axeman is Lukas Flarer who has written some of the material. Another comeback in the band is original founder, Harry Klenk, who's back on bass...now making Graveworm a six piece act.
My first meeting with Graveworm was when I heard their last album "ENGRAVED IN BLACK". The bio says "Graveworm is far from beinga poor copy of Cradle of Filth or Dimmu Borgir, they are a matured act with an own identity". I've never looked upon Graveworm as a copy of those acts, but sure, if you take a real close look you may find some musical similarites with Cradle of Filth. Graveworm are described as melodic black metal but I also hear some symphonic and techno. They have also a lot of tempo changes, and even though it's melodic black metal it leans more into the melodic than the black metal area. Altogether it seems like the band has worked harder this time to make the material more varied.
The band have once again used the same producer as last time (Andy Classen - Krisiun, Rotting Christ, Holy Moses, Dew-Scented etc) and also his German studio Stage One Studios. As always Andy does a terrific job with the production. He's added heavy guitars to Stefanos growling/screaming vocals. They have arranged beautiful keyboard parts that gives the songs an almost gothic feeling.
Stefanos voice manages everything from growling/screaming/black metal and ordinary vocals and Sabine is a rock behind her keyboard. Moritz behind the drums is skillfull and fast and the guitars are handled with grace by Lukas and Eric.
Just as on the last album, 9 tracks are featured on "(N)UTOPIA" but this time they haven't added a cover. Now it's only an instrumental song called "DEEP INSIDE". The quality of the songs are high but some that stand out are "I-THE MACHINE" which is a fast melodic black metal track that starts off with a real fast intro. Then the tempo drops and the songs turns into a symphonic black metal song with keyboards. The tempo shifts from pure black metal to more symphonic black metal, in other words are the music is pretty technical and the biggest part of the sound picture belongs to Sabine on keyboard. "(N)UTOPIA" has a more distinct melodic black metal feeling and Stefano shifts between using black metal vocals and ordinary vocals. "HATEFUL DESIGN" is a melodic black metal track where Stefano has the biggest part in the sound picture, Lukas and Eric share the sound picture with their roaring guitars. "TIMELESS" starts off with an keyboard intro in a slow pace before the rest of the guys joins in. Stefano almosts whispers the vocals before he bursts out in black metal vocals in the first chorus. The song ends where it starts with only keyboard. "OUTSIDE DOWN" kicks off right away and turns into a mid-fast melodic black metal track. The music is technical and holds a lot of tempo changes.
This album feels a lot stronger than the previous and it feels like the band has put some time into writing the best material they possibly can. This album is for everyone who's into the melodic black metal scene or for the old fans of course. The only negative thing I can find about "(N)UTOPIA" is the instrumental track which feels a bit unnecessary.
Graveworm is about to do a video to "I-THE MACHINE" and they're also releasing "(N)UTOPIA" as a club single. An extensive tour with crazy humpa metallers of Finntroll in April is planned as well.

Two Banner Health Colorado hospitals among top 5 percent in nation in 2013
Healthgrades Hospital Quality Report names North Colorado Medical Center and McKee Medical Center Distinguished Hospital Award for Clinical Excellence™ Recipients
GREELEY, Colo. (Jan. 15, 2013) – North Colorado Medical Center and McKee Medical Center announced today that they have received the Distinguished Hospital Award for Clinical Excellence™ in 2013. The distinction ranks NCMC and McKee among the top 5 percent of more than 4,500 hospitals nationwide for clinical performance as measured by Healthgrades, a leading provider of comprehensive information about physicians and hospitals.
From 2009 through 2011, 262 hospitals showed superior performance in caring for patients in the Medicare population, as measured by objective clinical outcomes (risk-adjusted mortality and in-hospital complications) across at least 19 of 27 of the most common conditions and procedures. Nationally, if all hospitals performed at this level from 2009 through 2011 a total of 164,414 lives could have potentially been saved.
"We are happy to be nationally recognized for the dedication and investment in clinical quality and patient care," said McKee CEO Marilyn Schock. NCMC CEO Rick Sutton added: "This is further evidence that our employees remain focused on our priorities to make a difference in people's lives through excellent patient care."
"Healthgrades helps consumers become more aware that hospital quality matters and differs significantly from one hospital to another, even in their own neighborhood," said Evan Marks, EVP Informatics and Strategy. "Because selecting a physician and hospital strongly impacts patients' odds of experiencing complications or emerging from their procedure alive and well, patients should familiarize themselves with the Distinguished Hospital Award for Clinical Excellence recipients. These hospitals stand out for their overall clinical performance across a broad spectrum of care."

College Hockey:Brown, Findlay Tie At Subway Classic
Bears Take Third In Tournament With Shootout
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — Brown won a shootout with Findlay to claim third place in the Subway Holiday Classic at Ralph Engelstad Arena.
Officially the game will count as a tie after it ended 1-1 in regulation and neither team scored during overtime.
All the scoring occurred in the first period. Brown got on the board at 13:34 with a goal by junior wing Chris Swon. On a 2-on-1 rush set up by a pass from freshman wing Sean Dersch, Swon fired a wrist shot from the left circle that cleanly beat goalie Jon Horrell.
Findlay tied it 1-1 at 19:44 with a power play goal. Freshman forward Mike Batovanja fired a slapshot from the bottom of the left circle. Brown goalie Yann Danis stopped the shot, but the rebound went directly to junior forward Mark Bastl, who fired the puck into an open net.
For the remainder of the game and the overtime period, it was a battle between goalies Horrell, who had 37 saves, and Danis, who had 30.
Findlay appeared to have the best opportunity to win in regulation when, in the final minute, freshman Justin Perry got the puck alone in the slot, but shot it wide.
In the shootout to determine the third-place tournament winner, Horrell was scored on twice by Brown's Brian Ihnacak and Brent Robinson. Andrew Radzak was the only Findlay player to score on Danis, which gave Brown a 3-2 win and the third place trophy.
Despite losing 3-1 to North Dakota after leading the Sioux late in the third period Saturday and tying Brown on Sunday, Findlay coach Pat Ford was upbeat about picking up a point for the weekend.
"I'm somewhat satisfied. I'm a little bit happier than last night," he said of the tie with 12th-ranked Brown.
"The effort was there and we're building as a team. As everybody can see, we still have a ways to go, but it's encouraging for me that we're taking some steps forward. For us, it was a great challenge both days and we're going back to Findlay a better hockey team," Ford said.
Although Brown coach Roger Grillo thought the Bears played better against Findlay than they did in their 3-2 overtime loss to Wayne State, he was disappointed with his team's effort for the weekend.
"Certainly, we need to work on a few things before we get back into league play next weekend," he said. "We're a decent team, but we're a team that needs to come out and compete and battle and bring energy. We're struggling with our confidence a little right now and we need to find it as soon as we can."
Brown, 6-3-3 overall and 6-2-1 in the ECAC, plays at Rensselaer Jan. 2 and at Union Jan. 3. Findlay, 4-12-3 overall and 1-4-1 in the CHA, plays Jan. 3 at Notre Dame.
