Raciąż is a town in Płońsk County, Masovian Voivodeship. It is situated on Raciąż Plain on the Raciążnica River (right-bank tributary of the Wkra River). It has 4684 inhabitants (2008).

Jews first began to settle in Raciąż most likely in the 1640s. However, the actual development of Jewish settlement came with Poland's partition at the end of the 18th century, following the official abolition of the de non tolerandis de Judaeis privilege. No Jewish presence was noted in the town in 1790. There were 15 Jewish residents in 1800. In the decades that followed, both the number and percentage of Jews in Raciąż increased, with Jews constituting about 50% of the total population at the start of the 20th century.
Until 1843/1844 Raciąż Jews were came under the auspices of the kehilla in Radzanów. The authorities declared its independence on 24th December (10th January), indicating that local Jews possessed a synagogue accommodating about 1000 people, a bath house, as well as an assisting Rabbi, cantor and teachers. In the mid-19th century the Jewish community numbered 1154 people, 989 of whom attended the synagogue. The remaining 165 comprised the Hassids who prayed in their shtiebls. The Rabbi's office was held at that time by Hersz Szymkiewicz.
In the beginning of the 19th century the Jewish community consisted of about 2500 people. On February 8th, 1825 a Jewish quarter was marked out in the north-east part of the town (Kiniker and neighboring streets). Many Jews appealed the orders obliging them to move to the quarter. The final date was set for 1st April 1834. The decision was formally abolished in 1862.
A cemetery was established after 1850 and a synagogue was built in 1888. A wooden Beit Midrash was built in the beginning of the 19th century. It burned down in 1934 and a new one was erected in its place. There were several Hassidic shtiebls, including those from Góra Kalwaria and Otwock. A Jewish hospital was in operation with 20 beds..
In the 19th century Jews were the only people in Raciąż who leased the city revenues and managed the construction and paving of streets and plazas. Abraham Bursztyn won a tender for street-paving in the 1840s, proposing a price of 1250 rbs, that was lower than a predetermined estimate of 320 rbs. In 1842 Lewin Berenbaum won a tender for the repair of three bridges in Raciąż, and in 1853 Wolf Sznycer from Płońsk won a tender for city well-repair. In the 1870s a large tannery was established by Chil Behaum.
On 8th June 1935 workers of a labor camp started
Local history
Tomasz Kawski /
Raciąż is one of the oldest settlements in the northern Mazovia. The first mention of Raciaz is the so-called Mogilno forgery dating back to 1065, although the date of the creation of the document is disputed. .
During the early medieval centuries (from the 13th c.) a burg (fortified town), home to a castellany (type of medieval district), existed within the territory of today's Raciąż. From the 15th century Raciąż was the county's capital and the headquarters of the court. A market settlement, existing in the burg, was granted Chełm civic rights by Duke Ziemowit the IV on December 15th, 1425.
Raciąż was originally the property of the Masovia dukes. It became a royal town in 1495, upon the annexing of the Duchy of Płock to the Kingdom of Poland. In 1512 it replaced Kock as the capital of the Płock bishops' estates . Regional assemblies were held in the town from the 16th century. Masovian nobility usually gathered in the church of St. Wojciech . From the end of the 16th century Raciąż began to lose its significance. The wars of the 17th century intensified difficulties, the population drastically decreased and the town gradually declined. In 1725 the Church of St Wojciech burnt down. During the partitions Raciaż lost the status of the county capita; . In 1869 Raciaż lost its municipal rights, which it regained only in 1922. The creation of a railway connection between Raciaż and Płońsk and Sierpc in 1924 revived the local economy.
During World War II the city was incorporated into Germany under the name Ratcenz. Germans began to settle in Raciąż - colonists who immediately began to occupy important position and take over Jewish firms. The butchery was replaced by a meat processing plant, and the school by a field bakery. All products were sent to the troops on the front .
A ghetto and labor camp were opened in Raciąż. Both Poles and Jews worked in the camp in the years1940-1942 . Two deportation actions took place in Raciąż. In October 1939, the majority of Jews were deported to Warsaw and Plock; in 1941, the few remaining Jews were depo

Last week, researchers from UNH's Atlantic Marine Aquaculture Center
(AMAC) took Campus Journal aboard the Meriel B to visit the Center's
offshore aquaculture demonstration site six miles off the coast of Portsmouth.
A three hour tour
AMAC operations manager Michael Chambers discusses the business of raising
fish in the harsh open-ocean conditions of the AMAC's demonstration site.
Oh buoy!
Aquamanna, AMAC's new remotely operated, 80-ton automated fish feeding
buoy, holds 20 tons of food and will feed four different crops of fish at a
time. It's not fully programmed yet, so feeding proceeds from the boat.
Are you there, cod?
Research technician Gita George '06 and Muriel B captain Tim McClare
send feed to about 50,000 cod, bred from wild Gulf of Maine stock, in a cage
30 feet below the surface of the Atlantic.
Fish TV
Randy Whistler, research project engineer, oversees the feeding from a monitor
inside the Meriel B.
Mussel mass
Returning to Portsmouth's Fish Pier, the Meriel B stops to check on
another AMAC-launched project: a local commercial fisherman's offshore
mussel farm, the first in the U.S. AMAC developed the technology to farm blue
mussels on submerged lines in an open ocean environment.
We welcome your story ideas, letters, photos,

CLAS faculty visit Chile
Several faculty members from UW-Green Bay recently returned from a visit to the Universidad del Desarrollo in Santiago, Chile. The visit was hosted by Professor Alex Godoy, who was a Visiting Scholar here during fall 2012, where he taught courses in Environmental Science and Spanish. Professor John Katers of Natural and Applied Sciences was awarded a Fulbright Specialist position for his visit, which was nearly three weeks in length and focused on developing relationships with the Chilean university around topics including sustainability, pollution control and waste management, both at the undergraduate and graduate level. Associate Professors Mike Zorn, Natural and Applied Sciences, and Cristina Ortiz, Humanistic Studies, along with Associate Provost Andrew Kersten and International Education Director Brent Blahnik, arrived later to meet with other administrators and staff at Universidad del Desarrollo regarding opportunities for long-term collaboration including faculty exchanges, students exchanges and travel courses. Faculty also made classroom presentations, toured industrial facilities, and met with faculty from several other universities in Santiago.

I have been on Remicade [infliximab] for about two years, and my eyesight is getting very bad. Could this be a side effect of Remicade?
It is hard to know what is causing your eyesight deterioration, and you should have an ophthalmologist (not an optometrist) do a thorough exam to address this concern. Remicade is not a common cause of eyesight trouble.

BACKGROUND: Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked recessive disorder characterized by cardiomyopathy, skeletal myopathy and cyclic neutropenia in male patients. It is caused by mutations in the TAZ gene coding for the tafazzin, a protein involved in the remodeling of cardiolipin. Loss of cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane results in respiratory chain dysfunction. No specific symptom has been identified in female carriers.
CASE REPORT: We report the first case of BTHS confirmed by TAZ gene analysis in a female patient. This girl experienced severe heart failure at 1-month of age. Echocardiography diagnosed dilated-hypokinetic and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with noncompaction of the left ventricle. Initial metabolic screening was normal, except for a cyclic neutropenia. Respiratory chain analysis performed on skin fibroblasts revealed a decreased activity of complexes I, III and IV. Screening on a bloodspot showed abnormal monolysocardiolipin:cardiolipin ratio, later confirmed on cultured fibroblasts, indicative of BTHS. Genetic analyses finally confirmed the diagnosis of BTHS, by showing a large intragenic deletion of exons 1 through 5 in the TAZ gene. Cytogenetic analysis showed mosaicism for monosomy X and for a ring X chromosome with a large deletion of the long arm including the Xq28 region. The girl presented recurrent episodes of severe acute heart failure, progressive muscle weakness, and had a fatal septic shock at 3years.
CONCLUSION: This case highlights that the diagnosis of BTHS should also be suspected in female patients presenting a phenotype similar to affected boys. In these cases, analysis of the monolysocardiolipin:cardiolipin ratio in bloodspots is a rapid and sensitive screening tool for BTHS. However clinical expression in a carrier female requires hemizygosity for the mutated allele of the TAZ gene, which supposes a rearrangement of the TAZ gene region on the other X chromosome.

Thai Airways adds A380 to Heathrow route
Published: 03/06/2013 - Filed under: News »
Thai Airways will add an A380 to its daily service between Bangkok and London Heathrow later this year.
From December 1, the superjumbo will operate under flight code TG911 when it leaves London each day at 1150 and arrives in Bangkok at 0610 the next morning.
The return flight, TG910, leaves Bangkok at 0110 and arrives at LHR at 0715.
An A346 will operate on Thai Airways' second daily flight - the TG917 departing London at 2135 and the TG 916 departing Bangkok at 1250.
The standard cabin layout offered by the Airbus A380 allows between 525 and 853 passengers - Thai has deliberately kept the number of seats to 507 passengers to maximise space and comfort.
The seats are arranged in three classes - 12 in Royal first class, 60 in Royal Silk business class, and 435 in economy.

For more information, visit thaiairways.com.
Report by Graham Smith

Does this mean they will no longer offer the A380 on the HKG-BKK route or will that still work within the timing ?
MarcusUK - 04/06/2013 02:53
Good to see Thai up their game also.
Has been too long for an Airline to be switching around the Aircraft on such a main and prestigious route into LHR.
Means quite a few of the Asian Carriers now compete with the A380 services to some of the main SE Asia Hubs, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok.
kinkung - 28/11/2013 03:38
Thai air is NOT adding the A380 to the LHR to BKK flight (TG911). My wife and I have Thai Silk tickets in March 2014 and when we purchased the tickets was told it would be the A380, but now have been told it will be a 747-400 version 2. I was looking forward to the new A380 (and the new seating), but at least this flight has been upgraded.
SiteAdministrator - 28/11/2013 11:52
Yes, that's right - there's lot of subsequent stories on this topic such as
kinkung - 11/02/2014 00:53
My wife and I are scheduled to fly business class on flight TG911. However, Thai Air has changed from the Air 380-800 to the 747. We are not happy about the change, but at least it is an up dated plane.

Police have identified the two men killed in a shootout Sunday night in Cobb County. But they still have not released a motive or identify any suspects in the crime.
David Blount, 20, of Smyrna, and Ryan Christopher Bobbitt, 24, of Marietta, were found shot to death inside a home on Cardell Road near Austell, according to Cobb County police.
At 6:19 p.m., someone called 911 to report shots being fired in the 2100 block of Cardell Road, police spokesman Officer Mike Bowman said. Within a couple of minutes, a second person called to report people being shot inside a home at 2103 Cardell Road, Officer Bowman said.
"I heard one shot out here, neighbors down the street said there was about six or eight shots," witness Julia Biddy told Channel 2 Action News.
When officers arrived on the scene, they found the two men dead inside the house from apparent gunshot wounds, Officer Bowman said. In addition, two other men had to be hospitalized due to injuries they received after being shot.
Their conditions were not immediately known Monday night and police have not released their identities, though one media reported that one of the victim was a high school student.
Sandy Springs Doctor Accused of Child Molestation Wanted
A Sandy Springs doctor who was charged with child molestation has become a flight risk and police have obtained warrants to bring him back into custody, officials said Sunday.
Kelly Thrasher was indicted last year for allegedly molesting a juvenile girl during a sleepover at his home. Thrasher was charged with child molestation, but the Fulton County grand jury also added sexual battery and aggravated sexual battery in the alleged crime against the child, according to the Sandy Springs police.
In January, Thrasher was again arrested and charged by the state medical boards with practicing medicine without a license after the Georgia State Licensing Board received numerous complaints that he was seeing patients in his office in violation of the medical board's suspension of his license.
He was out of jail on $50,000 bond when investigators learned that Thrasher obtained a U.S. Passport under another name.
Detectives have obtained warrants for identity fraud and second-degree forgery. They believe he is a flight risk and are seeking to return him into custody.
Anyone with information on his location should contact Sandy Springs police at (770) 551-6900.

NVIDIA have had a great time with Kepler, top-to-bottom they have a great line up of GPUs on offer, and this line up is about to grow with another member, the GeForce GTX 650.
The GeForce GTX 650 sports the same GK107 silicon as the GeForce GT 640, but the GTX 650 sports faster GDDR5 memory. The reference board looks pretty much identical to that of the GT 640's, apart from the GTX 650 featuring a black PCB and 6-pin PCIe power connector.

Of all the information that's available about you these days, none has as much impact as your credit history. This history will determine whether or not you can get credit, and how much you will pay for it. That being the case, don't you think you should know what that credit report says?
That might seem like common sense, but a poll conducted for WisePiggy.com by Op4G found that a third of Americans have not checked their credit reports within the past year. Furthermore, more than a fourth of Americans haven't taken even the most rudimentary steps to preserve the quality of their credit score.
Keeping current
The poll of 2,000 respondents found that 11.35 percent had never checked either their credit score or credit report. On top of that, 22.4 percent hadn't checked their credit scores in the past year, and 24.9 percent hadn't checked their credit reports in the past year.
Credit scores and credit reports reflect your current status, so having information that is more than a year old is little better than having no information at all. Thus, when you add people who haven't checked at all and those who haven't checked in a year, the poll shows that nearly 34 percent do not have up-to-date information on their credit scores, and 36.25 percent do not have up-to-date information on their credit reports.
Men seem a little more concerned
Overall, men seem a little more concerned with their credit than women:
- 70 percent of men have checked their credit scores within the past year, compared with just 63 percent of women.
- 69 percent of men have checked their credit reports within the past year, compared with just 59 percent of women.
- 30 percent of women have taken no steps to improve their credit scores, compared with 23 percent of men who have done nothing along these lines.
Considering that the list of steps for helping credit scores includes things as simple as paying bills on time and keeping balances low, those who said they have taken none of these steps have failed to clear a very low bar for financial responsibility.
Older Americans are most negligent about credit
The poll also looked at differences in credit management by age group, and found that people in their 30s seem to be most conscious of their credit standing. In contrast, people in the oldest age group surveyed (ages 50-64) were least likely to have checked their credit scores (61 percent) or their credit reports (58 percent) within the past year. This age group was also most likely to have taken no action to improve credit.
Older people may assume that with their home-buying days behind them, they have less need to be concerned with their credit histories. However, they may still find a need for home financing options such as reverse mortgages or refinancing, and their credit card rates will still be affected by their credit standing. Finally, your credit history can tip you off as to whether you have been the victim of identity theft or other forms of fraud.
In short, your credit history is an important financial asset, and needs to be actively managed as such. Keeping an eye on your credit report is the first step.

Cervical Cancer
*Links on this page will take you to content on the cancer.net website. Links will open in a new window.
About the cervix
Cervical cancer starts in a woman's cervix, which is the lower, narrow part of the uterus. The uterus holds the growing fetus during pregnancy. The cervix connects the lower part of the uterus to the vagina and, with the vagina, forms the birth canal.
About precancer and cervical cancer
Cervical cancer begins when normal cells on the surface of the cervix change and grow uncontrollably, forming a mass called a tumor. A tumor can be cancerous or benign. A cancerous tumor is malignant, meaning it can spread to other parts of the body. A benign tumor means the tumor will not spread.
At first, the changes in a cell are abnormal, not cancerous. Researchers believe, however, that some of these abnormal changes are the first step in a series of slow changes that can lead to cancer. Some of the abnormal cells go away without treatment, but others can become cancerous. This phase of the disease is called dysplasia, which is an abnormal growth of cells.
The abnormal cells, sometimes called precancerous tissue, need to be removed to keep cancer from developing. Often, the precancerous tissue can be removed or destroyed without harming healthy tissue, but in some cases, a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus and cervix) is needed to prevent cervical cancer.
Treatment of a lesion, which is a precancerous area, depends on the following factors:
- The size of the lesion and the type of changes that have occurred in the cells
- If the woman wants to have children in the future
- The woman's age
- The woman's general health
- The preference of the woman and her doctor
There are two main types of cervical cancer, named for the type of cell where the cancer started. Other types of cervical cancer are rare.
- Squamous cell carcinoma, which makes up about 80% to 90% of all cervical cancers
- Adenocarcinoma, which makes up 10% to 20% of all cervical cancers

Inside Syria: The needs of children
For Syrian children who have been uprooted by war, school is essential. Watch our video from northern Syria, where IRC staff are providing children with classrooms where they can continue their studies, develop friendships with other children and recover from trauma. (September 2013)
Donate Now: Help the IRC respond to the humanitarian crisis in Syria.>>
Video Transcription
Title: Three out of four Syrian children have lost a close friend or family member in their country's ongoing conflict. Many have witnessed violence first-hand.
For many, their education and their childhoods have been interrupted.
SANDRA MAIGNANT, Children, youth, protection and development, IRC:
Children have experienced really traumatic situations and we can really feel that they have, that they're still recovering from those traumatic experiences.
So learning and play time, it's really important for the children. To establish they can go back to normalcy.
Title: These children are citing verses from the Quran that refer to the protection of place.
SANJAYAN SRIKANTHAN, Emergency field director, IRC:
The IRC has set up schools in camps along the border with Syria and Turkey that provide formal education, safe learning and healing spaces for children with trauma and provide referrals for children with mental and physical disabilities.
Title: The IRC provides educational and psychological support to some 1,700 children and youth in Syrian camps.
So, this is a safe healing and learning space.
The IRC provides educational and psychological support to some 1,700 children and youth in Syrian camps.
So we have the different tents with the different classrooms. … And this afternoon we're doing recreational activities.
So for parents, it's doubly traumatic for them, having lost everything else, they're seeing the future of their children wasting away in these camps. So they're incredibly relieved when we're providing education for their children, so that when this conflict ends they can slot back in and they will not have lost so much.
"…and today this is a special need class for children with mental disabilities from Al Kiryami camp."
We have special separate classes for those with mental and physical disabilities. So we do offer a different program for these children to make sure they're not forgotten.
"I want to fill this tractor."
Title: We are working to expand our programming so that all children in the areas where we work have access to education.

Mixed Company®
Mixed Company is written by Saint Paul Sunday staff, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at the show and the classical music they love. We welcome your online comments.

Musical Renaissance Man
I think there is an old stereotype about classical musicians. Often, this is the implied job description: must have started serious training at age of three, preferrably with a stern woman named "Frau Something or Other;" must be extremely diligent in study, which should never be light hearted orgasp!fun; thick European accent preferred. Stephen Prutsman is none of the above and yet he is one of my favorite all-around musicians today.
Stephen Prutsman grew up in LA and while it's clear that he studies music just as rigorously as the next top-notch pianist, he brings an easy-going, relaxed attitude to the way he talks about music. For example, as you'll hear in the show he has a profound connection to Bach English Suite, but Stephen's open about the fact that he became interested in the piece because he just like the way it sounded. He heard the opening bars, thought they were so interesting and catchy, he couldn't get them out of his head.
I also appreciate Stephen's music in the variety of music he creates. He's a fantastic soloist, composer and conductor. In the past year, he has been one of the Artistic Partners of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and audiences love what he has done. Have any of you seen him in performance with the Chamber Orchestra or as a soloist or conductor anywhere else? What did you think?

Lots of Noyse
David Douglass, violinist and leader of the King's Noyse, has the distinction of being one of the most frequently appearing artists on Saint Paul Sunday. But unlike other favorites, such as the Dale Warland Singers or Emerson String Quartet, David frequently flies under the radar at sessions, joining us as part of ensembles ranging from Musicians of Swanne ALley to the Smithsonian Chamber Players to his own King's Noyse. You don't need to worry that David can't hold a job--rather he's such a versatile player that the best early music groups all have him on their speed dial.
One of the things I love best about King's Noyse is how they swing. Their performances are as close to jazz as anything I've heard in classical music. And when Ellen Hargis steps into the spotlight, it's a little bit like Sarah Vaughan showing up. Bill's not the only one to have a crush on her. We all get a little goofy when she's in the studio. But isn't it fun to have a soprano-crush occasionally?

Horizon of Orion
I just finished listening to the Orion String Quartet's performance on Saint Paul Sunday and it had been a while since I had heard them perform, but as soon as they played the first note I thought, "Wow, these guys are good." Their playing is so technically precise, the same time also subtly nuanced and never mechanical. One of my favorite things about the Orion String Quartet is that with all of the music they playespecially with this program of well-known pieces by Beethoven, Schubert and Prokofievit somehow feels like I'm hearing the music for the first time.
This is also one of my favorite Saint Paul Sunday programs because it was my first show on the staff of Saint Paul Sunday. I remember being incredibly nervous: here are world-class musicians whom I admire tremendously, how could I ever say something interesting enough to hold up a conversation? But it's impossible to be nervous around these four. They are light-hearted, warm and constantly kidding each other. But they're not kidding about the socks. Todd Phillips has an amazing eye for the, well, eye catching.

New York Knicks rumors have the team signing free agents Earl Clark and Shannon Brown. These latest Knicks rumors have the team giving each player a 10-day contract to help add depth to the roster. According to a report from Thursday (Feb. 27), both players will be available for the night game against the Miami Heat.
Jimmer Fredette To Chicago Bulls?
After buying out the contracts of Beno Udrih and Metta World Peace, the roster had open slots to add players. President and general manager Steve Mills just made the official announcement, which might come as a surprise to some fans. It is also a clear sign that the front office isn't giving up on this season, even though the team is now 5 1/2 games out of the eighth playoff slot in the East.
Earl Clark is a 6-10 power forward who averaged 5.2 points and 2.8 rebounds over 15.5 minutes in 45 games (17 starts) with the Cleveland Cavaliers this season before he was acquired by the Philadelphia 76ers on Feb. 20. Shannon Brown is a wing player who appeared in 10 games (one start) for the San Antonio Spurs this season, averaging 2.3 points and 1.3 rebounds over 10.3 minutes.
While other New York Knicks rumors have the team linked to other potential free agents that have been bought out by their most recent teams, these two players will fill a void on the roster through 10-day contracts. Their performance over the next week will likely dictate whether they are extended or not.

Are You Anticipating Medical Treatments
In Salt Lake City...
Let Us Help With Your Housing!
Why Stay In A Hotel or Motel...
When You Can Stay In Our Apartments or Homes...
For Less!
Salt Lake City
Our Story
In the 1970's my mother and father learned that the Salt Lake City Shriners Hospital had a need for housing. Many families of children being treated at the hospital had only one option... to stay in hotels which were expensive and far from the hospital.
The idea was born to provide a clean studio apartment for those needing a place to stay, at low cost, close to many of the hospitals in Salt Lake.
Now, nearly 40 years later, my husband and I provide fully furnished one bedroom apartments to those in need of the same thing... a low cost, clean apartment, within walking distance to most of the major hospitals.
Talk to the Hospitals-- our Reputation speaks for itself!
What We Offer
We offer clean, furnished Apartments for patients and their families. Studio units, One-bedroom units and houses. What do you need?
Families have a place to stay while loved ones are being treated in our local hospitals. Our apartments allow patients who need long-term treatments, a place to stay, at a great price.
We are a mom-and-pop, no-frills business... no front desk, no shuttle service, no pool, no pets. We offer a nice place to stay, in a home-like atmosphere, during a very stressful time.
Each apartment is fully furnished with everything you need; complete kitchens, bedrooms, hide-a-bed in the living room, cable TV and high-speed Internet. All you bring are the personal things you need for your stay. If you want to bring your favorite pillow, that's ok, but we have pillows too.
Rates | Rules | Requests
Compare our rates to hotel rooms. Our rates start as low as $660 per month, that's only $22 per day.
We have one (1) Studio apartment that rents for $22 per day. Our one-bedroom apartments rent for $40 per day; that's only $1,200 per month. Our homes rent for $55 per day- that's less than most hotel rooms offering hospital rates.
Why would you want to live in a small, expensive hotel room, for long periods of time, when you could enjoy a fully furnished apartment or home?
1) No pets. 2) No Smoking in our Apartments.
We ask that you treat our apartments as you would your home (unless you trash your home). Please be mindful of other guests in adjoining units. Those who are here are either families of patients or patients recuperating from serious illness or injury.
To schedule the use of one of our apartments, call us in Salt Lake City, at: 801-502-6209
We will put you on our schedule based upon availability.
If we don't answer our phones, leave a message and we will call you back usually within one hour of your call.
What Our Guests Say
I would just like to thank you for your heartfelt concern and generosity for providing this apartment for people who have to come from out of town to receive medical care. Finding this kind of housing gave us one less thing to worry about. I found your apartment to be very clean and comfortable. The price is certainly very affordable. I had the opportunity to meet a couple of very nice people while living here who will remain in my memory forever. I will certainly recommend you and your apartments within my community. M.M., from Wyoming.
Thanks so much for the apartment you provided at an affordable price. Very easy access to the U. of U. Medical Center. Nice neighborhood, great spring flowers in all the yards. We are the lucky ones, good news, no cancer left. We count our blessings and are very thankful. Best Wishes. G.F., from Nevada
Thanks so much for the apartment. It was so much nicer than a hotel room and at half the price. Sorry that we gave you such short notice, but so grateful that you had an opening for us. Our daughter needs to return to the Hospital in about six months. We will call early when we need a place to stay. J.M., from Colorado
It was so nice for our family to be able to stay in a home priced less than a hotel room. Huntsman Cancer Center was fantastic, your home was wonderful and the treatments worked.
M.W., from Arizona

Twas all began with a simple e-mail, asking for my User Interface, and twas ended with one happy reader. I recently got an e-mail today.
" Wow love the minimalist UI. Any chance you share that? " - Joseph
To that I said sure thing bud! I responded as such:
" Sure =) I'll have to compile everything if you want it to look exactly like mine, otherwise, check out this link for more information about the UI Compilation itself.
I've attached some screenshots so you can compare it to the actual UI itself, see which one you like the most. "
- Mageshadow
|Chicken is so ftw!
" http://rapidshare.com/files/
That's the link for my UI, when you install it, simply log in and type in /reflux switch bubuUI that should set everything in place.
For UIscaling type or paste in chat the following:
/console useUiScale 1
/console uiscale 0.75999999046326
That should bring everything to scale, if not, tweak it around some in the UI settings.
Best of luck,
Mageshadow "
Now, I'm not sure how many of you will like my UI, but I personally love it, It's clean, sharp, crisp and very organized, if you don't like it, I suggest you head over to Wowinterface and dig around their compilations sections, there are a ton of user interfaces, I'm sure you'll find one that you'll love.

Positive Atheism's Big List of Quotations
No-Frames Quotes Index
Load This File With Frames Index
Home to Positive Atheism
Paul Henri Thiry, Baron d'Holbach (1723-1789)
If we go back to the beginning we shall find that ignorance and fear created the gods; that fancy, enthusiasm, or deceit adorned or disfigured them; that weakness worships them; that credulity preserves them, and that custom, respect and tyranny support them in order to make the blindness of men serve its own interests.
If the ignorance of nature gave birth to gods, the knowledge of nature is calculated to destroy them.
All religions are ancient monuments to superstitions, ignorance, ferocity; and modern religions are only ancient follies rejuvenated.
All children are atheists -- they have no idea of God.
What has been said of [God] is either unintelligible or perfectly contradictory; and for this reason must appear impossible to every man of common sense.
Can theology give to the mind the ineffable boon of conceiving that which no man is in a capacity to comprehend? Can it procure to its agents the marvellous faculty of having precise ideas of a god composed of so many contradictory qualities?
The Jehovah of the Jews is a suspicious tyrant, who breathes nothing but blood, murder, and carnage, and who demands that they should nourish him with the vapours of animals. The Jupiter of the Pagans is a lascivious monster. The Moloch of the Phoenicians is a cannibal. The pure mind of the Christians resolved, in order to appease his fury, to crucify his own son. The savage god of the Mexicans cannot be satisfied without thousands of mortals which are immolated to his sanguinary appetite.
Many men without morals have attacked religion because it was contrary to their inclinations. Many wise men have despised it because it seemed to them ridiculous. Many persons have regarded it with indifference, because they have never felt its true disadvantages. But it is as a citizen that I attack it, because it seems to me harmful to the happiness of the state, hostile to the march of the mind of man, and contrary to sound morality, from which the interests of state policy can never be separated.
If the ministers of the Church have often permitted nations to revolt for Heaven's cause, they never allowed them to revolt against real evils or known violencess. It is from Heaven that the chains have come to fetter the minds of mortals.
Tolerance and freedom of thought are the veritable antidotes to religious fanaticism.
O Nature, sovereign of all beings, and your adorable daughters, virtue, reason, truth! be for ever our sole divinities; it is to you that the incense and homage of the earth are due. Show us, then, O Nature, what man must do to obtain the happiness which you have made him desire.... Inspire the intelligent being with courage; give him energy, that he can eventually love himself, esteem himself, feel his dignity; that he dares free himself, that he is happy and free, that he will never be a slave to your laws; that he perfects his fate; that he cherishes his fellow-beings; that he makes himself happy, that he makes others happy.
Religion has ever filled the mind of man with darkness, and kept him in ignorance of his real duties and true interest. It is only by dispelling the clouds and phantoms of Religion, that we shall discover Truth, Reason, and Morality. Religion diverts us from the causes of evils, and from the remedies which nature prescribes; far from curing, it only aggravates, multiplies, and perpetuates them. Let us observe with the celebrated Lord Bolingbroke, that 'theology is the box of Pandora; and if it is impossible to shut it, it is at least useful to inform men that this fatal box is open.'
The vulgar, it is repeatedly said, must have a Religion. If enlightened persons have no need of the restraint of opinions, it is at least necessary to rule men, whose reason is uncultivated by education....
Don't say anything about this to anybody. Any one would say that I am trying to play the good-natured philosopher. I am neither benefactor nor philosopher, but just a human being, and my charities are the pleasantest expense I have on these journeys.
R J Hollingdale (b. 1930)
I admit that the generation which produced Stalin, Auschwitz and Hiroshima will take some beating; but the radical and universal consciousness of the death of God is still ahead of us; perhaps we shall have to colonize the stars before it is finally borne in upon us that God is not out there.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. (1841-1935)
Life is an end in itself, and the only question as to whether it is worth living is whether you have had enough of it.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809-1894)
The man who is always worrying about whether or not his soul would be damned generally has a soul that isn't worth a damn.
We are all tattooed in our cradles with the beliefs of our tribe; the record may seem superficial, but it is indelible. You cannot educate a man wholly out of the superstitious fears which were implanted in his imagination, no matter how utterly his reason may reject them.
Men are idolaters, and want something to look at and kiss, or throw themselves down before; they always did, they always will; and if you don't make it of wood, you must make it of words.
The truth is that the whole system of beliefs which comes in with the story of the fall of man ... is gently falling out of enlightened human intelligence.
Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening.
George Jacob Holyoake (1817-1906)
I do not believe there is such a thing as a God.
Our National Church and general religious institutions cost us, upon accredited computation, about twenty million pounds annually. Worship thus being expensive, I appeal to your heads and your pockets whether we are not too poor to have a God. If poor men cost the State as much, they would be put like officers on half pay; and while our distress lasts, I think it would be wise to do the same thing with the deity. Thus far I object, as a matter of political economy, to build chapels in communities. If others want them, they have themselves to please; but I cannot propose them. Morality I regard, but I do not believe there is such a thing as God.
If I could have my way I would place the Deity on half-pay as the Government of this Country did the subaltern officers.
Anybody can see that the little money you get is half-wasted, because you cannot spend it to advantage. The worst food comes to the poor, which their poverty makes them buy and their necessity makes them eat. Their stomachs are the waste-basket of the State. It is their lot to swallow all the adulterations on the market.
Elmer Homrighausen
Few intelligent Christians can still hold to the idea that the Bible is an infallible Book, that it contains no linguistic errors, no historical discrepancies, no antiquated scientific assumptions, not even bad ethical standards. Historical investigation and literary criticism have taken the magic out of the Bible and have made it a composite human book, written by many hands in different ages. The existence of thousands of variations of texts makes it impossible to hold the doctrine of a book verbally infallible. Some might claim for the original copies of the Bible an infallible character, but this view only begs the question and makes such Christian apologetics more ridiculous in the eyes of the sincere man.
Thomas Hood (1799-1845)
Alas for the rarity
But evil is wrought by want of thought,
A certain portion of the human race
Sidney Hook (1902-1989)
As a set of cognitive beliefs, religion is a speculative hypothesis of an extremely low order of probability.
Religious tolerance has developed more as a consequence of the impotence of religions to impose their dogmas on each other than as a consequence of spiritual humility in the quest for understanding first and last things.
To deny me the right to err is therefore to deny me the right to believe.
Religious freedom in an open society has the best prospects of flourishing to the extent that it expresses itself as freedom of religious inquiry.
Religious tolerance has developed more as a consequence of the impotence of religions to impose their dogmas on each other than as a consequence of spiritual humility.
I come of Quaker stock. My ancestors were persecuted for their beliefs. Here they sought and found religious freedom. By blood and conviction I stand for religious tolerance both in act and in spirit.
Sir Fred Hoyle (b. 1915)
Religion is but a desperate attempt to find an escape from the truly dreadful situation in which we find ourselves. Here we are in this wholly fantastic universe with scarcely a clue as to whether our existence has any real significance. No wonder then that many people feel the need for some belief that gives them a sense of security, and no wonder that they become very angry with people like me who say that this is illusory.
Space isn't remote at all. It's only an hour's drive away if your car could go straight upwards.
Hsun Tzu (298-238)
When stars fall or a sacred tree groans the people of the whole state are afraid. We ask "Why is it?" I answer: there is no [special] reason ... For there is no age which has not experienced eclipses of the sun and moon, unseasonable rain or wind, or strange stars seen in groups. If the prince is illustrious and the government tranquil, although these events should all come together in one age it would do no harm ... but when human ominous signs come, then we should really be afraid. Using poor ploughs ... spoiling a crop by inadequate hoeing and weeding ... these are what I mean by ominous human signs.

Hinduism/Etymology of the words Hindu and Hinduism
The word Hindu is derived from the Sanskrit word Sindhu which is the ancient name for the Indus River that flows through the north-western part of the Indian subcontinent. Sindhu also means sea. The word Hindu or Indu was used by Greeks to denote the country and people living beyond the Indus river. Megasthenes' 'Indica' epitomizes the name for India and Indians around the 4th Century B.C.E. This word was misunderstood to be coined by Arabs, by medieval and some modern Indian Historians. But this was only an extention of the name used by the Greeks. The Arabic term al-Hind, referred to the land of the people who live across the river Indus. By the 13th century, the word Hindustan began to be used as a popular alternative name for India, meaning the "land of Hindus". Towards the end of the 18th century, the European merchants and colonists referred collectively to the followers of the Dharmic religions in Hindustan — which geographically referred to most parts of the northern Indian subcontinent — as Hindus. Eventually, any person of Indian origin who did not practice Abrahamic religions came to be known as a Hindu, thereby encompassing a wide range of religious beliefs and practices.
One of the accepted views is that the ism was added to Hindu in the early part of the nineteenth century by English writers to denote the culture and religion of the high-caste Brahmans. The word Hinduism was soon adopted by the Hindus themselves, as a term that encompassed their national, social and cultural identity.
The original word for the now-so-called Hindus is Sanatan and Arya. The word Hindu is believed to not appear in the Hindu scriptures, viz, Vedas, Upanishads, and Puranhas. The contemporary Hindus are believers of and accept the authority of the said scriptures, hence, they are more accurately identified as Sanatanis or Aryans. Another word which is more accurate than Hindu, is Bhaaratiya. People of India are believed to be the descendants of King Bharat. From his name comes the original name of India, Bhaarat, and, those residing in Bhaarat are Bhaaratiya.
In the 19th. and 20th centuries under the British Raj (Rule) of India the word Hinduism was applied to the national, social and cultural practice of the majority of Brahmanic people and their belief in a number of mythical gods and goddesses, but never suggested as being anything beyond a philosophy -- a great philosophy at that; never a religion established by a single prophet, or a holy book or scriptures. As a result of a political undercurrent, however, a few of these people have been radicalised into believing erroneously that Hinduism is a religion, when in fact it is not one.

So for years I was that guy that threw any leftover part from a "self-assembly" required project into the junk draw only to later need said part! Of course finding it was another project in itself! Simple solution. Plastic baggies! You know the zip-loc kind! What makes these great is they come in various sizes, you can see whats inside and you can write on them! So looking for that random part, screw, hex nut wrench or whatever is now somewhat hassle free. Remembering which draw or part of my workshop I put them in is my downfall now!
Here's a pic of the junk draw:
Now, nuts, bolts nails, screws, etc. in the shop I like to use baby food jars! It's also recycling! Yes I have kids so it makes them more accessible, but if you don't, ask a friend that does to set them aside for you! These also come in various sizes too!
Any clear jar will work. My Gramp had all kinds all over his basement workshop. He used large peanut butter jars and smaller jars too. I need to find a pic to show everyone, but he had screwed all the lids into the joists overhead and just screwed on the jar! Just twist and the jar comes off! There was no fumbling around looking for the right jar. Just look up!
These here are actually some of his here:
Of course there are larger screws and nails. Old whipped cream tubs make good storage for these.
Hopefully these ideas come in handy for you and help with organization and headaches from not being able to find that elusive part, wrench, nut bot, screw or whatever!

This was a great meal and was an instant favorite in my house! I doubled the sauce as suggested and added garlic and green onion to the sitrfry when the ginger went in. I'm sure these modifications made a huge difference in the flavor of the meal. The grocery store had a sale on top sirloin, so I also used that instead.
Hoisin Beef & Edamame Noodles
From EatingWell: January/February 2007
Sweet hoisin sauce and tangy lime juice balance perfectly in this quick, colorful, Asian-inspired noodle dish. Make it a meal: Dress a cucumber salad with toasted sesame oil and lime juice and enjoy a cup of jasmine green tea.
10 Reviews for Hoisin Beef & Edamame Noodles
I didn't care for this dish, but I am reviewing the dish with changes per other reviewers' suggestions. I do not agree that doubling the sauce is a good idea. I followed that recommendation, and the sauce completely overwhelmed the dish. I also don't agree with using a heavier noodle, as whole wheat spaghetti noodles seemed too heavy to me. If I were to make this again, I'd try pouring the meat mixture over rice instead of noodles and I'd add bok choy or spinach, but there are much better recipes on Eating Well so I probably will pass on a second try here.
This was a bit flavorless. Also, slicing up the steak was a pain. If I were to make it again, I would definitely take the advice to double the sauce.
I loved this reciepe. My kids were a little scared of it at first because it didn't smell like the food at the chineese buffet. After they tried a bite they loved it. I will make this again.
Tastes great and very simple to make. My dad liked it so much he asked me to make it for his next visit.

(973) 448-1901
With an increased pricing on utilities, many homes and businesses are focusing efforts to reduce energy costs. Using pressure sensors to assist with monitoring pressure can aid in the selection of the type of power used (steam vs. electric) as well as monitor the efficiency of a device before it requires maintenance or replacement. Government funding has also increased in order to help municipalities and businesses "go green" through energy reduction programs.
Pressure sensors for ammonia and other HVAC/R applications require special attention to media compatibility and environmental conditions. Ammonia offers refrigeration pump and compressor manufacturers an improved efficiency over Freon based systems. However, the thermodynamic behavior of ammonia is very different from Freon. When the refrigeration pump turns on, the ammonia temperature rapidly changes from 100°F to -70°F or below. This accelerated change, along with the type of sensor diaphragm material affects the pressure transducer performance and ultimately the control system.
O-ring sealed pressure sensors cannot withstand rapid thermal changes and over time the internal O-ring will fail. Fluid filled pressure sensors suffer from freezing effects. This causes a rupture of the thin diaphragm membrane, which is welded in place to hold in the silicone oil-fill.
Thin film technology sensors [based on 15-5 and 17-4PH stainless steels] that have their diaphragm welded to a pressure port, will undergo thermal stresses that will eventually crack the steel.
Thermal Flash Protection™ is the technology applied by AST to reduce the effects of thermal flash transients when the media is Ammonia. First, AST utilizes its one-piece stainless steel sensing element with 316LSS wetted materials.
This element is free of welds, oil-fill and internal O-rings. Next, a special non-clogging port design is used in order to minimize the effects of extreme temperature change. The pressure sensor will recognize a uniform temperature as to maintain system stability. To conclude, Thermal Flash Protection™ is the pressure sensing technology for ammonia refrigeration applications. This option can be added to a variety of pressure ports including 1/4" NPT male and 1/8" NPT male.
The three digit option code at the end of the model is "117." To combine with Sealed gauge reference, option code "165" can be offered. This option protects the pressure sensor against any moisture or condensation that can be caused when the sensor and the environment differ in temperature. Without this option, the pressure sensor can run the risk of shorting the electronics.
AST commonly packages its products, including the AST4000 Industrial Pressure Sensor and AST4300 Non-Incendive Pressure Transmitter with a compound pressure range. The sensor is calibrated with a zero offset in order to measure vacuum. This feature is used in refrigeration applications to notify the user when a system has been evacuated. The first digit of the pressure range code is replaced with the letter "V." This particular model is also packaged as sealed gauge reference. As mentioned above, it seals the housing from changes in barometric pressure and protects the electronics from conditions such as icing or high pressure washdown.
One example of an AST4000 model would be:
1/4" NPT Male pressure port
-14.7 to 100 PSI
4-20mA output signal
Mini-DIN43650C electrical connection
316L SS wetted materials
Internal restrictor plug; Sealed Gauge reference
AST offers sensors for the refrigeration market by utilizing an SAE4 (7/16-20 UNF) female pressure port that contains an internal Schrader depressor pin. This port allows the sensor to be easily removed or installed in service, additionally eliminating the need for adaptors. The pressure port option is the letter "K" for the AST4000 Industrial Pressure Sensor series and the option code is "006." When combined with Sealed Gauge Reference, the option code "143."
AST offers the AST5400 Differential Pressure Transducer in various building controls applications. From water pressure flow to filtration applications, the AST5400 is a compact transducer with an excellent price and performance. This DP is available in explosion proof and non-incendive packages for onshore and offshore refrigeration applications. It replaces traditional process style differential pressure transmitters as a compact device providing either a 4-20mA or voltage output signal.

College Hockey:Big Second Period Lifts Harvard over Princeton
PRINCETON, N.J. — Down 2-0 on the road, but set to enjoy a lengthy 5-on-3 power play to open the second period, Harvard coach Mark Mazzoleni knew his team wouldn't get a better chance to turn the game around.
"We didn't play with a real good edge in the first period, and we got what we deserved," Mazzoleni said. "[The 5-on-3] helped us get a real big momentum change."
Just 49 seconds into the second period, and with just eight seconds left on the 5-on-3, Chris Bala found Peter Capouch for a cross-ice pass. Capouch was able to bury it, and Harvard was on its way. A four-goal second period was enough for the Crimson, as they defeated the Princeton Tigers, 4-3, at Baker Rink.
The loss was the seventh in a row for the Tigers, their first such skid since 1987-88, and Princeton's worst stretch since going 0-9-1 during the 1995-96 season.
Following the Capouch goal, the Crimson didn't score in the remaining power-play time, but the tone was set for the second period. A few minutes later, the teams traded penalties, and Harry Schwefel took advantage of the open ice, stealing a puck at center and making a nice move around a Princeton defender before putting a backhander in for a 2-2 game.
"I give Harry a lot of credit," said Mazzoleni. "It probably hasn't been the type of senior year he had hoped for, but he's been a great team player, he's shut his mouth, he's been very positive … and when we've used him like tonight, he's responded very, very well."
Harvard (9-7-1, 8-3-1 ECAC) would continue with the territorial edge, but suffered a scare when freshman Tyler Kolarik went down with what appeared to be a nasty knee injury. But, after going to the bench for a few shifts, Kolarik was back on the ice. Apparently, the Princeton defense thought he was still on the bench, because he caught them napping, as he slipped in the slot to convert a centering feed for a 3-2 Harvard lead.
"We have the offensive skills to counter off other people's mistakes," Mazzoleni said, "but I don't want to take the offensive side and start cheating and then get caught with our shorts down and get nailed on it. On the reverse end, we approach things to take care of the defensive side first, and then, off other teams' mistakes, we jump on it."
Princeton (5-10-3, 4-5-2 ECAC) got the goal back just over a minute later on a similar play, with Dion Del Monte scoring for the Tigers. But just as Princeton looked like it had righted the ship, and with an opportunity to take a lead before the intermission, a lapse at the blue line allowed Dominic Moore to go in for a shorthanded goal, his ninth overall goal of the season.
"I guess I got a lucky bounce on the clear there and I was sort of off to the races," said Moore, who had a three-point night. "I got a little bit of room. Stathos is a good goalie, a real aggressive goalie, so I thought if I gave him a little bit of a fake he'd come out and I'd have a little bit of room to tuck it home. Fortunately, that's what happened."
Tigers coach Len Quesnelle, who saw his team sleepwalk through a pair of embarrassing home losses to Bowling Green last weekend, 8-3 and 5-0, was happy with the effort in the third period, but Princeton was never able to get through Harvard's bottleneck.
"It was like night and day from last weekend to tonight," Quesnelle said. "The players in that locker room showed up to play, and when they play hard, they can play with anybody. Now we just need to be smarter in certain situations. [We allowed] a 5-on-3 goal, a 4-on-4 goal, a shorthanded goal, and a 5-on-5 goal off a power play."
Princeton looked strong early, netting first-period goals from Chris Owen and David Schnedier. But with Thomas Colclough already out on a slashing penalty, the turning point came when goalie Dave Stathos was called for delay of game. Not only did it create a 5-on-3, but Quesnelle was forced to put someone in the box that was already on the ice, meaning, one of his top penalty killers. He decided it should be a forward, and he chose Shane Campbell over Ethan Doyle.
"We thought Ethan would have more spot-to-spot quickness 5-on-3 than Shane, and I wasn't about to put a defenseman in the box," Quesnelle said.
Princeton had two very good chances to tie it in the closing minutes. Harvard goalie Oliver Jonas made a great stop on one play, then, with just over a minute remaining, Chris Corrinet came in on a breakaway, only to have the puck roll off his stick as he attempted a backhand.
Goaltending woes have contributed to Princeton's slump. After a strong start, the junior Stathos has been shaky lately. He made progress Friday night, but there's still room for improvement.
"Stats was good, but I've seen him play better," said Quesnelle.
The first four of Princeton's losses in the streak were to ranked teams — RPI, New Hampshire, Wisconsin and North Dakota. So, certainly Princeton, while not happy about it, could be excused. But those losses seemed to snowball into last week's disaster.
"We certainly lost a little bit of confidence in that stretch," Quesnelle said. "I think you saw that last week. Not to take anything away from Bowling Green, but we didn't show up to play at all. This team needs to play tough in this rink. Very simple. And I thought we did that tonight. But we don't have much to show for it right now."
Harvard, meanwhile, stretched its first-place lead to six points over Cornell and Vermont, though those teams have five and four games, respectively, in hand. The Big Red defeated Vermont on Friday in overtime to pull even in second place.
"The first goal is to get home ice, but the way we're thinking this year is first place," Moore said. "We're in first place right now, and we intend on staying there, and these two points will help."

College Hockey:Pietila goal gives Michigan Tech a tie with Bemidji
HOUGHON, Mich. — If the Michigan Tech Huskies could play the Bemidji State Beavers all season long, they might be the top team in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association.
Instead, they only faced the Beavers four times this season, but have three wins and a tie after Saturday night's 2-2 tie at the MacInnes Student Ice Arena.
Looking to tie the game early in the third, Huskies' center Tanner Kero took a pass off the end boards from winger Alex Petan and made a quick deke. His shot was stopped by Beavers goaltender Andrew Walsh, but the rebound kicked to winger Blake Pietila, who buried it with a quick backhand at 3:06 for his third goal of the weekend.
"We had a tough start," said Pietila. "I think we got better every period. It says a lot about the guys in the locker room to come back after that tough start and get back to the game plan. It was nice to get a point at least."
The Beavers (5-12-5 overall, 4-8-4 WCHA) looked for a better start than Friday night, where they gave up a goal just 48 seconds in. They appeared to have learned little in the opening minute and a half, as the Huskies blitzed the Beavers' defense. For all their effort however, the Huskies couldn't manage to get a shot through to Walsh, who finished the night with 28 saves.
The Beavers settled in after that initial flurry, and pushed back after receiving an early power play. Their best scoring chance came to a halt when a cross-ice pass in the slot was intercepted by Pietila.
"I just thought we really just played tenacious, a lot like we did against Western Michigan and Michigan on the PK," said Huskies coach Mel Pearson. "[Blake] made a great play in the first period on the PK. The guy's open back door and he gets a stick in that lane."
On their second man advantage, the Beavers had a great scoring chance when defenseman Brady Wacker fired a long shot through traffic that Huskies netminder Pheonix Copley stopped. The rebound sat near his equipment, and the Beavers swung away at the puck, but to no avail. Copley made 31 saves over the course of the game.
After that power play, the next shift saw the Huskies (7-12-4 overall, 4-10-4 WCHA) get a great scoring chance when winger David Johnstone took a pass from winger Malcolm Gould, spun, and fired. Walsh stayed with him however, and made the stop.
"Walsh played well," said Beavers coach Tom Serratore. "Copley played well, Walsh played well. Two good goaltenders and two guys who are seeing the puck very well."
The Beavers pushed the puck up the ice late in the opening period, and winger Jordan George nearly had a perfect opportunity to score when his initial shot deflected off Copley. Copley lost sight of the rebound, which dropped right between his feet, but George could not react fast enough.
After a scrum behind Copley's net led to a Huskies' power play, the Beavers broke the scoreless tie when captain Ben Kinne took a long lead pass from defenseman Sam Windle, skated in alone, and beat Copley with a wrist shot just inside the left post at 17:08.
The Huskies came out in the second period pushing the play at the Beavers' defense. In one consecutive sequence, Pietila, Petan, and captain Carl Nielsen all had scoring chances, as Pietila's initial shot rebounded off of Walsh's mask to a waiting Petan. The second rebound bounced just over Nielsen's stick.
After a faceoff loss deep in the Beavers' zone, Huskies' winger Ryan Furne picked up the puck in the left corner. He carried the puck out into the slot, waited for Walsh to set up, and then picked the corner over his blocker at 6:01 to tie the game.
Five and a half minutes later however, the Beavers regained the lead when center Aaron McLeod crashed the net and tipped a pass from winger Brance Orban past Copley at 11:25.
The rest of the second period was more of a chess match than a hockey game, as neither team was willing to give up much defensively. Late in the period, the Huskies earned a power play chance, and nearly evened the game when Johnstone and Petan created a two-on-none chance in front of Walsh. Johnstone tried to wait out Walsh, but instead fired his shot over the net.
The Huskies had a golden opportunity to snatch the lead three minutes later when center Dennix Rix skated in alone on Walsh. He made a quick move to his forehand, but was stopped. Winger C.J. Eick had a chance at the rebound as he crashed the net, but he was also stopped.
Both teams traded chances throughout the final 14 minutes of regulation, but neither could solve Copley or Walsh, forcing the game into overtime.
In the extra session, the Beavers jumped all over the Huskies early, but Copley stood tall. After the Huskies got their feet underneath them, they had a chance of their own off the stick of Johnstone.
Kero and Pietila each took penalties late in the overtime, but the Beavers could not muster a shot on goal during the two-man advantage.

Jeremy Meeks may be the most popular inmate in a judicial system since O.J. Simpson. On Friday, June 20, 2014, ABC News posted a jailhouse interview with Meeks, who seemed perplexed by his internet fame. Meeks's model-like mugshot has floated around the web since Wednesday, June 18, 2014.
Meeks, who is facing charges for illegal weapons possession, was informed by his wife that he was an internet sensation. Meeks seemingly had little interest in his popularity. Many other men, however, have grit their teeth and furrowed their brows at the reactions of women across the world.
Disgruntled male observers began a campaign against Meeks and his model-like looks, labeling women "desperate and vulnerable" and creating rumors regarding Meeks's sexuality. Someone has gone so far as to use photos of Meeks and a man identified as his brother in a meme suggesting Meeks does not like women. This has not stopped women from drooling over Meeks's mugshot.
At the core of this unadulterated bashing is the old green-eyed monster. Meeks and his icy eyes have caused jealousy to rear its ugly head among the male population, but why? Why are men jealous of a man who is facing a $900,000.00 bond, separated from his family, and looking at some real hard prison time?
Here are five reasons men are jealous of Jeremy Meeks...
Meeks is photogenically hot
Meeks is hot. From his piercing gray (or blue) eyes to his chiseled jawline and full lips, Meeks is unquestionably pleasing to the eyes. His looks, and the reaction to them, have caused even the most confident of men to quake a little in their egotistical boots. Anytime a man can turn the heads of so many women, other fellas start to get a little envious.
Exceptionally good looking people tend to make others feel slightly inadequate.
Meeks is the male version of Kim K. West
There's no doubt that Jeremy Meeks does not have the past of a choir boy, but seriously...women do not care. He is eye-candy. Meeks is to women as Kim K. is to men. A "trashy" past, but easy on the eyes. Women cannot fathom how a man could want a woman who has been having sex since she hit puberty, and on camera to boot. Men cannot fathom how women could fawn after a man like Meeks, who is currently sitting in jail. The simple answer: lust is instinctive and irrational.
People get mad when nice things happen to not so nice people.
Meeks exemplifies how "nice guys finish last"
Here we go again. Men are in a tizzy because the bad boy is getting all of the attention. They are lamenting how women jump at the chance to be with a guy who will beat them, rape them, or kill them...assuming that Meeks is this type of guy and that women actually want to be with him other than for lustful reasons. Meanwhile, good guys, like the complainers, have to come to the rescue when these "idiotic women" get their hearts broken by the bad guy. Meeks is a nice guy's worst nightmare...an alleged criminal who droves of women lust after.
Society has lied to men about female sexuality
Newsflash...women get hot and bothered. And this is coming as a surprise to men. Men are shocked and appalled at the way women are foaming at the mouth over a good looking man. Society is to blame for this. Men did not know that women behave "badly" behind closed doors. Men are used to women, who are not openly sexual, abiding by puritanical modes of dating, relating, and mating. Now somehow, Meeks has drawn out the sex kitten in school teachers, moms, and church ladies.
They are members of the female-woman-haters club
Some guys are just "haters". They hate anything and anyone who is not beneficial to them. They hate it when someone else gets attention. They hate not being able to control others. They hate women because of every woman in their past. They hate that women are voicing their likes, lusts, and desires. They hate that they don't fit into the popular opinion of what's aesthetically hot to women. They just hate, hate, hate...
You will know a guy is just "hating" when you hear him say things about Meeks like:
- He's not all that.
- But he's a felon.
- He'd better not drop the soap.
- He'll steal your heart, your car, your big screen...
