James Van Der Beek: Actor
The generational update: On the runaway WB teen hit, the 6-foot Van Der Beek, 21, is indeed the stalwart center—but of Mr. Smith's So-Called Wonderful Life at Melrose Place, 90210. The show has created controversy, with critics charging explicit hormonal overload and young Web site fans identifying with its puberty vérité. Van Der Beek plays Dawson Leery, an earnest 15-year-old film fanatic who idolizes Steven Spielberg and practices moviemaking on his hyperarticulate friends in a small Massachusetts beach town. "James is so good-looking, yet has this incredibly analytical, intelligent side," says series creator Kevin Williamson. Creek costar Joshua Jackson, who plays Dawson's buddy Pacey, a high school student who had an affair with his English teacher, agrees. "James is very much Dawson," he says, "a couple of years down the line."
The eldest of three children of Jim, a Cheshire, Conn., telephone-company employee, and Melinda, a gym teacher, Van Der Beek, who is single, was sidelined from football in the eighth grade with a concussion and began acting in community theater. Now on leave from New Jersey's Drew University, where he's an English major, he tips his lid to his most dependable beauty aid, the baseball cap. "I basically jump in the shower, throw a hat on and take it off at work. In half an hour, my hair is cool," he says. "I'm ambidextrous. I wear it both ways, but on formal occasions, brim forward."
Such savoir faire impresses Michelle Williams, who plays Dawson's next-door neighbor Jennifer. "James is very graceful and unassuming," she says. "A very smooth, even, cool guy." The kind of guy who sums up his ablutions in three simple words: "Soap is good."
But the price of playing a 15-year-old with 21 years of hormones coursing through your veins is constant vigilance. "For Dawson's Creek, I have to shave a lot," Van Der Beek admits. "I shave twice every day."

Since the upgrade, each time I upload an image (the original orientation of the images are portrait style), when the image is inserted into my post, the orientation is somehow changed to the landscape orientation.
I have tried editing the image within the image editor. I changed the image from landscape to orientation, and saved...to no avail.
I also tried re-installing the plug-in, to no avail.

The most recent post is evidence of the problem.
Looking at the board, I seem to be the only one having this issue. Would like any feedback.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Aaron Cunningham left the Oakland Athletics' game against Minnesota on Monday night with a concussion after being hit in the head by a pitch.
The team said he was taken to nearby Summit Medical Center for a CT scan.
Twins starter Anthony Swarzak hit Cunningham square in the helmet and knocked it off his head in the fourth inning Monday night, and the ball sailed high in the air. Cunningham dropped to one knee and athletic trainer Steve Sayles and manager Bob Geren rushed out.
Cunningham stayed in the game and slowly went to first after several minutes. Jack Hannahan cleared the bases with his double two pitches later.
But Gregorio Petit replaced Cunningham in the top of the fifth.

"Germany's oldest city" Trier by Beckhanne
Trier Travel Guide: 577 reviews and 1,416 photos
Trier is situated on the western bank, in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate near the border with Luxemburg. It was founded by the Romans in 16 BC under the reign of Ceasar.
This once Roman city has kept many monuments of that period, the most famous being the Porta Nigra, which is the best preserved Roman city gate north of the Alps but there are also an amphitheatre, ruins of baths and a basilica. With all that, it's needless to say that the architecture is very rich because different styles are to be found through the city.
Trier is also famous for being the city where the philosopher Karl Marx was born; you can besides visit his birth place and the museum calles Museum Karl Marx House.

we stayed 2 nights in an executive suite as a treat. The room was awesome with huge living room, king bed and double spa bath and rain shower. the toiletries were incomplete, the pillows too large and too hard, only 1 sachet of creamer for tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast was very average. Picked 2 ants from my bread, had to be careful carrying plate to my table as the staff were eager to push in front of the guests at the buffet. Stocks were not replenished very well. Cakes stale. I decided to go for a swim in the pool though no towels were available, no staff present, even the bar had no barman so in the end, i gave up. For a 4 star hotel, this one is well below par. A huge expense for an awesome room but that's all that was good about it

This year's Nobel Prize in literature winner, Mo Yan, who has been criticized for his membership in China's Communist Party and reluctance to speak out against the country's government, has defended censorship as something as necessary as airport security checks.
He also suggested he won't join an appeal calling for the release of the jailed 2010 Peace Prize laureate, Liu Xiaobo, a fellow writer and compatriot.
Mo has been criticised by human rights activists for not being a more outspoken defender of freedom of speech and for supporting the Communist Party-backed writers' association, of which he is vice president.
His comments on Thursday (Friday NZ time), made during a news conference in Stockholm, appear unlikely to soften his critics' views toward him.
Awarding him the literature prize has also brought criticism from previous winners. Herta Mueller, the 2009 literature laureate, called the jury's choice of Mo a ''catastrophe'' in an interview with the Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter last month. She also accused Mo of protecting the Asian country's censorship laws.
China's rulers forbid opposition parties and maintain strict control over all media.
Mo said he doesn't feel that censorship should stand in the way of truth but that any defamation, or rumours, ''should be censored.''
''But I also hope that censorship, per se, should have the highest principle,'' he said in comments translated by an interpreter from Chinese into English.
Mo is spending several days in Stockholm before receiving his prestigious prize in an awards ceremony next Monday.
He won the Nobel for his sprawling tales of life in rural China. In its citation, the jury said Mo ''with hallucinatory realism merges folk tales, history and the contemporary.''
In addressing the sensitive issue of censorship in China, Mo likened it to the thorough security procedures he was subjected to as he travelled to Stockholm.
''When I was taking my flight, going through the customs ... they also wanted to check me - even taking off my belt and shoes,'' he said. ''But I think these checks are necessary.''
Mo also dodged questions about Liu Xiaobo, the jailed Peace Prize winner. Liu was sentenced to 11 years in prison in 2009 for co-authoring a bold call for ending China's single-party rule and enacting democratic reforms.
China's reception of the two Nobel laureates has been worlds apart.
While it rejected the honour bestowed on Liu, calling it a desecration of the Nobel tradition, it welcomed Mo's win with open arms, saying it reflected ''the prosperity and progress of Chinese literature, as well as the increasing influence of China.''
Although Mo has previously said he hopes Liu will be freed soon, he refused to elaborate more on the case. ''On the same evening of my winning the prize, I already expressed my opinion, and you can get online to make a search,'' he said, telling the crowd that he hoped they wouldn't press him on the subject of Liu.
Some, however, have interpreted Mo's October comments as if he hoped the release of Liu would make the jailed activist see sense and embrace the Communist Party line.
Earlier this week, an appeal signed by 134 Nobel laureates, from Peace Prize winners such as South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu to Taiwanese-American chemist Yuan T. Lee, called the detention of Liu and his wife a violation of international law and urged their immediate release.
But Mo suggested he had no plans of adding his name to that petition. ''I have always been independent. I like it that way. When someone forces me to do something I don't do it,'' he said, adding that has been in his stance in the past decade.
Mo is to receive his Nobel prize along with the winners in medicine, physics, chemistry and economics. The Nobel Peace Prize is handed out in a separate ceremony in Oslo on the same day.

Corizon Health Roles
What It's Like
Correctional nursing provides a rewarding career in an emerging specialized field that encompasses ambulatory care, health education, urgent care, infirmary care and specialty and chronic care clinics. Every Corizon Health nurse has an opportunity to make a difference whether they are or are not practicing in a corrections facility.
- Every day is a new day — Because the majority of our patient population generally has not had consistent access to healthcare prior to their incarceration, our nurses have the opportunity to see and care for an interesting variety of health concerns, from minor ailments to major and atypical conditions. Corizon Health nurses have the opportunity to influence change, including the opportunity to play an active role in educating patients about their health and helping them achieve wellness goals. Along with helping patients, Corizon Health nurses are playing a key role in developing and shaping the growing specialty of correctional healthcare.
- Corizon Health nurses can chart their own future - Correctional healthcare is an expanding industry. There are new jobs and new opportunities every day, allowing for unlimited career potential with the specialized knowledge our nurses possess. Best of all, Corizon Health has a long history of promoting from within and provides excellent management training to nurses who want to move into nursling leadership and management positions.
Path and Training
Corizon Health understands the vital role nursing plays in the correctional healthcare setting. Nurses are the eyes and ears of the program providing care around the clock on a daily basis. It is imperative that each nurse is properly selected, trained (initially and continually), and provided supervision and leadership during their daily activities.
Our Nursing Department works with other Corizon Health departments to ensure sufficient and qualified nursing staff is in place to deliver services in each our contracted facilities. We believe the process of ensuring our nurses' qualifications begins at the time of recruitment and interviews. Efforts are made at hire to provide sufficient information about correctional nursing to ensure the candidate fully understands the working environment in which they will be working and that they have the proper credentials and clinical experience to be successful within our organization. We are fully aware that ineffective hiring practices result in increased turnover of nursing staff, which affects the performance of the clinical program at the involved facility.
The Corizon Health nurse training program begins with the on-boarding process. The program focuses on the core competencies and skills necessary for success as a correctional nurse. Through our New Employee Orientation II (NEO II) program, nurses are presented important information regarding their role in the correctional healthcare program and how to be successful in their new role.
To ensure each member of our nursing staff has the basic competencies required in a corrections environment, twelve (12) core competencies have been identified by our nursing leadership. As a result, skills verification forms were developed by Clinical Education and Training. Annually, each RN or LPN must physically demonstrate his or her ability to appropriately carry out each of the twelve competencies and have that demonstration verified in writing by a subject matter expert (DON or designee). This documentation is maintained in the employee's training file and is sent to Corizon's Senior Manager, Clinical Education and Training for centralized tracking.
In addition to initial orientation, each nurse is provided ongoing educational opportunities through a program planned and coordinated between the Corizon Health Nursing and Training Departments.
Training is developed based on the current body of nursing knowledge and information gathered through our Quality Improvement and Sentinel Event Programs. Corizon Health believes it is imperative that nursing leadership at each of our contracted sites be aware of nurse performance and clinical decision-making based on a review of their work through our Quality Improvement Program. This review quickly identifies performance needs as well as areas of best practice that can be shared with others at the facility.
Monthly continuing education materials are mandatory and provided for each nurse with topics focused on clinical issues commonly encountered in their daily work activities and those areas where focus is needed. Corizon Health's Clinical Education Council is accredited by the California Board of Nursing as an Approved Provider of Nursing Continuing Education programs.
On-site nurse managers receive training materials that can be used in daily encounters with staff through planned training sessions or as a part of staff meetings. These materials focus on emergency response situations and patient safety topics. Each nurse is also required to complete annual training on topics such as suicide prevention, employee safety, medication administration, narcotic control, infection control, HIPAA and corporate compliance and ethics.
Corizon Health's comprehensive monthly continuing education program allows nursing and practitioner staff to accrue CE contact hours toward re-licensing requirements at no charge. All Corizon Health staff are able to use the program to accrue training hours for accreditation requirements with no out-of-pocket expense.
The program is tracked at the corporate level to verify participation.

What It's Like
Corizon Health is an enthusiastic supporter of the Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH). PCMH is an innovative, practitioner-led, team-based model of primary care delivery designed to improve patient satisfaction and health outcomes. Corizon Health has particular strength in many areas emphasized by PCMH:
- Population Health: Healthcare is constitutional right for the incarcerated, and prison inmates constitute a stable base for population based practice. Practitioners know their patients personally and patients know their practitioner. Practitioners can exercise more control over their patients' diet, medication compliance and environment than can their colleagues in outside communities.
- Practice Organization: Corizon Health exercises financial discipline and builds relationships between support staff, clinical staff and clients. Inpatient days, ER runs, outpatient referrals and prescriptive practice are collected centrally and reported to practitioners to help them improve practice management. Telemedicine is used extensively to bring specialty care to inmate patients.
- Health Information Systems: Corizon Health uses the electronic health record in many of its contracts, but health informatics goes beyond the medical record. The company automates business and clinical processes and provides 24/7 IT Help Desk that can correct many remote access issues. In addition, many clinical decision support tools are delivered electronically.
- Quality Care: Corizon Health provides a structured way to gather and analyze clinical data to improve health outcomes. InGauge, a database containing both administrative and clinical data can be used to query such things as drug costs and laboratory results. Data about prescriptive practice and compliance with HEDIS measures are collected , analyzed and benchmarked to improve clinical care.
Path and Training
Corizon Health has established industry standards in practitioner orientation and training. Our Practitioner/Dentist On-boarding Program is specific to a number of leadership positions as well as full-time and part-time positions. Corizon Health's on-boarding program goals are in accordance with the mission of the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Innovation:
- Better healthcare by improving all aspects of patient care, including Safety, Effectiveness, Patient-Centeredness, Timeliness, Efficiency, and Equity (the domains of quality in patient care as defined by the Institute of Medicine).
- Better health by encouraging healthier lifestyles in the entire population, including increased physical activity, better nutrition, avoidance of behavioral risks, and wider use of preventive care.
- Lower costs through improvement by promoting preventative medicine, improved coordination of healthcare services, and by reducing waste and inefficiencies. These efforts will reduce the national cost of healthcare and lower out-of-pocket expenses for all Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP beneficiaries.
Through the Practitioner On-boarding Program, Corizon Health aspires to develop staff into advocates for Correctional Medicine. Everyone becomes a mentor - but the practitioner cannot become a mentor until she or he has been a mentored. As part of our on-boarding program, we have a 3-stage program to provide training and education of our practitioners to assure their best opportunity for success at the facility.

This ensures the opportunity to interact with specialists and other medical support staff when needed, while providing continuity of care, including confirmation of patient treatment and scheduled follow-up treatment.
- You can do the right thing - Correctional dentistry provides a vital service for people who otherwise could not afford or have access to quality dental care. In fact, our dental care is the first dental service some incarcerated individuals have received in years, so work is routinely met with great appreciation.

Path and Training
The Corizon Behavioral Health Clinical Education Council (BHCEC) facilitates the development of all Corizon Health behavioral healthcare staff through quality clinical education programs with a corrections-based focus. The BHCEC offers an innovative annual curriculum to update employee's skills, keep them abreast of new findings in the field of behavioral health, and assist with re-licensure requirements.
The Corizon BHCEC works in partnership with the sites to identify the specific behavioral health education and training needs for correctional behavioral health staff. As a rule, information is reviewed during the fourth quarter of the year for the coming year's program. This information is shared with the members of the BHCEC and a clinical training program is developed.
Differentiation is made between development of in-service education programs and continuing education programs. Once the material has been approved by the Director of Behavioral Health, the module is released to the company for distribution.
In-service education programs are documented and tracked at the site level. Some in-service education is released with the specific purpose of proving system-wide exposure to the training topic.
Specialized training in behavioral healthcare delivery in corrections is often difficult to procure. The BHCEC produces at least six continuing education units on behavioral health specific to corrections each year. These CE modules are distributed to the staff in order to provide ongoing educational opportunities. Corizon Health's Evidence-Based Training and Resource Manual includes a wide range of evidence based training modules as well as tools and resources for behavioral health staff.

What It's Like
With the dynamic growth of both Corizon Health and the correctional healthcare industry, we offer a variety of site, regional and corporate management job opportunities.
- Enjoy career growth - Corizon Health puts a high priority on filling management positions internally. In fact, 80% of our Operations Directors were promoted from within the Company. Often, they served as Health Service Administrators (HSA), who are responsible for the on-site delivery of comprehensive contract services, including personnel selection/retention, budgeting, client relations and coordinating care with internal and external resources.
- Enjoy a positive work environment with a good balance of autonomy and support - As a manager, you will have decision-making latitude to make a real difference in the lives of patients and the people who work for you. At the same time, Corizon Health has the systems and processes in place to ensure support is never more than a phone call away.
Path and Training
Corizon Health offers extensive training programs to prepare our managers for success in the correctional environment. These include:
- B.A.S.I.C. Management Training Program, 40 hours of instructor-led classes at our Corporate office on topics including Leadership Development, Human Resources, and Clinical Processes, all taught by experts in their fields and offering the chance to brainstorm solutions for the real-life challenges encountered in our unique medical units.
- 8 hours of technical training, via WebEx, for the computerized data, personnel and patient tracking systems used at Corizon Health
- On-the-job training and mentoring to assist in the transition to managerial positions.
What It's Like
As the nation's leading correctional healthcare provider, Corizon Health offers a wide variety of ancillary, administrative and other jobs to support our healthcare professionals in the field. Positions at our corporate office include everything from accounting, information technology, and human resources, to sales and marketing. These employees serve as the backbone of our operations, with responsibility for staffing and supporting our more than 550 facilities nationwide.
Nurse Practitioner and Physician Assistant
What It's Like
- A rewarding experience. Corizon Health's nurse practitioners and physician assistants experience professional satisfaction and accomplishment. You serve a group of patients who have no other opportunity to receive care.
- A test of your skill and the challenge to grow. Our NPs and PAs provide all levels of healthcare – health assessments, evaluations, treatment of acute and chronic medical conditions, health maintenance and education.
- You will see stimulating pathology - Corizon Health providers value the daily diversity and challenges of correctional healthcare. They enjoy the opportunity to work with a medical team that encounters a vast array of pathology every day. Because many of our patients have had limited prior access to healthcare services, you will see a wide variety of medical conditions — everything from routine patient presentations to unusual cases, often referenced only in medical textbooks or journals.
- The best of both worlds. Practice primary care with a public/community health service flavor. There are no barriers to hinder you from providing care and seeing the outcome over time.
Path and Training
The advantages of working in correctional healthcare as a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant are vast and varied. Here, your focus is on providing top-quality care. There are no obstacles in the way of that focus, and our entire team is dedicated to that singular goal. You also have a better opportunity to provide follow-up care and ongoing monitoring than in other fields.
In addition, you become part of an integrative team of healthcare providers. You work side by side with the other practitioners, so you help create the larger picture of each patient's health.
Locum Tenens
What is locum tenens?
Locum tenens is Latin and means "to substitute for." A physician in a locum tenens appointment takes the place of another physician during an extended absence. However, the understanding is that the appointment is temporary, locum assignments can vary from one day to over a year.
Why do physicians choose to work locum tenens?
- Provides the opportunity to sample different practices in other areas of the country before making a long-term commitment.
- Locum tenens is the choice of many seasoned physicians who no longer want the hassles of a running a private practice but are not yet ready to retire.
- Many new physicians choose Locum Tenens assignments while in the process of building a private practice.
- Supplemental income.
What will be my compensation as a Locum Tenens Physician?
- As a Corizon Health locum tenens provider you will work as an independent contractor. There is a great deal of variance in the compensation based on the specific medical specialty as well as the location of each job.
- At Corizon Health we take into consideration your travel, lodging, licensing and malpractice insurance costs and since there is no middle man (outside agencies) we are able to pay a very competitive fee for your services. The real benefit to working as a locum tenens provider is you get all the flexibility you need working where and when you want, and working as an independent contractor you may also qualify for additional tax considerations.
The basic requirements for a locum tenens appointment are: U.S. residency training; eligibility to work in the United States; one or more medical practice licenses in good standing and active federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) registration. You will also be asked to complete a Corizon Health locum tenens application and provide current credentialing information.
How do you get started?
If you are ready to experience the many rewards of working as a Corizon Health locum tenens provider please email your CV to firstname.lastname@example.com or call 800-222-8215 ext. 9539 or ext. 9541.
You're just a few steps away from the exciting and flexible lifestyle of a locum tenens physician!

When testing JavaScript in Firefox 3.5, I have access to constants such as
KeyEvent.DOM_VK_D, but not in Google Chrome. Is there a cross-browser way of accessing these constants?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
When testing JavaScript in Firefox 3.5, I have access to constants such as
You can define the KeyEvent object if it doesn't exist:
See also KeyEvent in DOM Level 3.
The standardisation process for keyboard input in web browsers has been ongoing for only the last 15 years or so. It turns out that it's not a simple problem.
In 2010 the KeyEvent interface was replaced with KeyboardEvent by W3C in a working draft. The list of DOM_VK_ key codes has not seen further standardisation work and is unlikely to ever be made consistent: some of the key codes differ between platforms, and even between browsers on the same platform. The KeyboardEvent interface is an attempt to bring in some consistency for key events.
However, as of writing this comment, browser compatibility for KeyboardEvent could be described as a disaster zone. Few browsers support KeyboardEvent.key, but this will hopefully become more consistently available in the future. It is a string which describes the key, rather than a numeric value. The list of proposed values is a W3C Working Draft.
I found one shim for KeyboardEvent.key, but it is apparently not currently up to date with the specification.
It is still possible that this story will have a happy ending.
Also you can use a lightweight npm package keycode-js. This contains a list of all these keycode constants and is easy to use.
Here's how you use it, https://github.com/kabirbaidhya/keycode-js#usage
Here's the list of supported constants.
This package is nothing more than a list of key codes like this:
I've used the solution from @Gumbo for quite some time now. Because I have multiple projects that need this object, I've simply created a bower package for it. If someone already has done this, let me know...
Note: this library is dumb, if the KeyEvent instance already exists, this will likely clobber it.

Hi there,
I am trying to decrease the padding on the left of the pages on a site. The theme is 2010. The site is http://www.bridgetlansley.com
For example the About page is using "one column, no sidebar" which gives a large left margin/padding.
I have tried changing
#content textarea {
color: #333;
font-size: 14px;
line-height: 18px;
padding-left: 85px;
and putting in a padding of, say 85px, but this just increases the existing padding even more. I would like to be able to set it so that it lines up with the menu and header image text. I would like to be able to do the same with the page titles.
I suspect I'm looking in completely the wrong place!
Many thanks if anyone is able to help.

Winter must have missed the memo.
Amarillo weather records
Latest measurable snowfall: May 7, 1917
Earliest measurable snowfall: Sept. 29, 1984
Most snow to fall in a season: 51 inches in 1918-19
Record snowfall on March 24: 8.4 inches in 1957
Snowfall has fallen on five days so far this month
Amount of snow to fall March 1 through Tuesday: 5.5 inches
Highest temperature this month: 75 degrees on March 22
Lowest temperature this month: 20 degrees on March 21
Road conditions
The winter weather that moved across the area dumped several inches of snow in Colorado, New Mexico and counties in the northern Texas Panhandle. Blizzard-like conditions forced the closure of Farm-to-Market 297 in both directions from Dalhart to Sherman County and FM 297 from U.S. Highway 287 to the Sherman County line, according to the Texas Department of Transportation.
For more information on road conditions call:
Texas Panhandle: 806-468-1488

Saturday may have been the first official day of spring, but it came with snow on the ground.
This week brought two sunny days with high temperatures in the 70s, followed by a cold day with rain and snow on Wednesday.
Despite early concerns of blowing snow, today should again be sunny with a high near 60 degrees.
"After tonight and tomorrow morning, I can guarantee you'll be pretty safe until next Tuesday," meteorologist Stephen Bilodeau said Wednesday. He specializes in the Texas Panhandle's climate for the National Weather Service.
Beyond that, there's no guarantee, though he did say that the latest snow has ever fallen in Amarillo is May 7, in 1917, according to records from the weather service in Amarillo.
The weather service recorded at least a trace amount of snow in April three of the past four years. No snow fell in April 2006, but an inch of snow fell on April 13, 2007. The record for snowfall in one season is 51 inches in 1918 and 1919; up until Tuesday, the tally this season was 27.7 inches.
Since moving to Amarillo five years ago, Susan Severn has learned to go outside and play with her 5-year-old son on March days when the forecast is warm and sunny.
"You know it could snow," she said.
Severn moved with husband Stephen to the Panhandle from Washington, D.C. She grew up in New York. In that part of the country, the weather stayed cold, and she didn't experience the roller coaster temperatures that define springtime in the Panhandle.
"We do think it's crazy it can go so quickly," Severn said.
But the break from cold weather is nice, and provides fun stories to tell friends and family back East, she said.
The Panhandle isn't the only region that experiences wacky weather, Bilodeau said. In Boston, winds blowing from the ocean can push temperatures to the 50s along the shoreline, even when the temperature just a few miles inland is 90 degrees. In Montana, Bilodeau once watched the mercury drop from 43 degrees to minus 5 degrees in five minutes.
The temperature swings in the Panhandle are common to the Central United States.
But weather is serious, said Kevin Starbuck, emergency management coordinator for the Amarillo Office of Emergency Management. At the national level, weather is a factor in 90 percent of all presidential disaster declarations. The Panhandle's weather brings not only winter storms that have caused major wrecks on Interstate 40, but tornadoes that have destroyed towns and droughts that have fueled to raging wildfires.
"There's nothing for sure when it comes to weather," he said.
And April thunderstorms are coming.
"This winter has seemed to carry on longer and longer," Starbuck said.
Thunderstorms have been possible with the last two weather systems, heralding the transition to spring, he said. Emergency workers are preparing for an active storm season.
"We're starting to see that transition," he said.

Ireland Said to Ready Bank-Debt Proposal for ECB Review
Irish Central Bank Governor Patrick Honohan will probably ask the European Central Bank Governing Council today for permission to effectively delay a cash payment on its banking debt, as the country tries to ease the burden of saving its financial system, said two people with direct knowledge of the matter.
The state is due to make a 3.1 billion-euro ($4.1 billion) payment to the former Anglo Irish Bank Corp., which is then supposed to use the funds to reduce its emergency borrowings from the country's central bank. Instead, the lender may use the funds to buy a new Irish government bond, meaning no net cash outflow from the state. The bond can be used to tap funding from the ECB, the people said.
Irish Finance Minister Michael Noonan confirmed to lawmakers late yesterday the state was considering using a bond for the March payment, without giving more detail. The concession may facilitate a longer-term effort to cut the cost of Ireland's banking rescue, which helped tip the nation into an international bailout in 2010. The Irish government is seeking European help to restructure about 30 billion euros of so-called promissory notes used to rescue the former Anglo Irish.
"It makes sense for European officials to facilitate a restructuring, thus improving the chances of a return to the market for Ireland," said Juliet Tennent and Dermot O'Leary, economists at Goodbody Stockbrokers in Dublin, in a note.
Neil Whoriskey, a spokesman for the Irish Central Bank, and Wiktor Krzyzanowski, a spokesman for the ECB, declined to comment.
Ongoing Discussions
"We are now negotiating with the EU authorities, and principally with the ECB, on the basis that the 3.06 billion-euro cash installment due from the minister to IBRC on March 31 under the terms of the IBRC promissory note could be settled by the delivery of a long term Irish Government Bond," Noonan said in an e-mailed copy of a speech in parliament yesterday. The discussions are ongoing, he said.
At present, the government needs to repay the central bank 30 billion euros of money created to fund the former Anglo Irish, now renamed the Irish Bank Resolution Corp.
The state needs to do so in a way that leaves the net impact on the money supply at zero. Otherwise Ireland's central bank could be accused of printing money, a policy opposed by the ECB.
At the moment, the government pays 3.1 billion euros each year to the bank. Broadly, IBRC uses that money to pay off its central bank borrowing. To neutralize the impact on the money supply, the central bank would then cancel those funds.
By going ahead with the cash payment, Ireland is sticking to its commitment to IBRC, avoiding a default even though the bank may use the funds to buy a sovereign bond.
Ireland's October 2020 bonds, regarded as the benchmark, yielded 6.9 percent today, down from 9.1 percent at the start of December. The yield on the equivalent Greek security is 18 percent and on the Portuguese note it's 12 percent.
Noonan has indicated he may ultimately seek to use the euro-area bailout fund to refinance the cost of bailing out IBRC.
"The postponement of the payment would give Ireland some breathing space to conclude a comprehensive settlement on the banking debt," said Michael McGrath, finance spokesman for Ireland's largest opposition party, Fianna Fail, in a statement. "The government's objective should be to secure a reduction in the actual burden of bank-related debt."

WASHINGTON -- Houston Astros reliever Chad Qualls lost his
appeal of a three-game suspension and $3,000 fine for throwing a
baseball into the stands and will sit out starting Tuesday.
Qualls' punishment originally was handed down by Major League
Baseball on June 20, two days after he allowed five runs in a loss
to the Los Angeles Angels and, after making a putout at first base,
tossed the ball into the seats.
He appealed that ruling, and a decision didn't come until
"I'm pretty disappointed that it didn't get reduced. I thought
it would get reduced at least a little bit," Qualls said. "I'm
definitely glad that everything is finalized. ... I learned my
He put a box atop the TV in the visitors' clubhouse at RFK
Stadium labeled "Qualls' Suspension Box -- Donations Appreciated."
The right-hander is 5-3 with two saves and a 3.86 ERA in 46
appearances this season.
Manager Phil Garner said before Monday night's game at the
Washington Nationals that Qualls probably would be used Monday,
before beginning to serve the suspension. The reliever will miss
the last two games of Houston's series at Washington, and then
Friday's opener at Pittsburgh.

Now In Goal For The Canadiens

from the CP via Yahoo,
Kim St-Pierre has made another breakthrough - playing in goal at a Montreal Canadiens practice.
The 29-year-old goaltender for Canada's national women's team was called in when goalie Carey Price missed practice for a second straight day with a flu.
She was on the ice for the full 90 minutes and did not look out of place as the NHL players fired pucks at both her and back-up goalie Jaroslav Halak through a succession of drills.

from Graeme Hamilton of the National Post,
Back in the days of Maurice Richard, there were tales of ailing Montreal Canadiens fans who claimed they had been cured by touching his jersey. Today, the young goalie expected to lead the team to playoff glory has been nicknamed Jesus Price. That Montrealers are mad about hockey is no secret, but students at the Université de Montréal will soon be learning that the fervour is religious.

Habs Inside/Out found this gem,
The fabled Montreal Forum Ghosts have a starring role in a new television commercial celebrating the Montreal Canadiens' 100th anniversary.
The TV spot, created by Jet Films, features current Habs players in colour playing against the original teams, before NHL expansion, in black and white. The ad is supported by two different posters promoting the team's centennial.

from James Duthie of TSN,
Welcome to Habapalooza. The schedule isn't even complete yet, and already we know the Ring of Honour ceremony will be followed by (brace yourself): Builder's Night (Oct. 28), Memorable Games in Canadiens History DVD release (Nov. 4), Patrick Roy's sweater retirement (Nov. 22), Opening of Centennial Plaza (Dec. 4), Centennial Gala (Dec. 5), NHL All-Star Weekend (Jan 24-25), launch of the Canadiens Hall of Fame (April), NHL Draft (June 27), 8 "Vintage Jersey" games, and two "Original Six Salute" games. Oh ya, and the Stanley Cup Final* (June).
And I didn't even get to the Special Edition Montreal Canadiens Monopoly Game, the commemorative stamps, and a special minted Habs Loonie (the only Canadian dollar that may rise in value this year).

Big Hit On Kostitsyn

from the CP via TSN,
A nasty hit on Andrei Kostitsyn opened the door for Georges Laraque to show why the Montreal Canadiens went looking for an enforcer last summer.
Laraque was front and centre in a rough and chippy second period as the Canadiens downed the Phoenix Coyotes 4-1 on two goals from Alex Tanguay and a goal and two assists from Saku Koivu on Saturday night, although they look to have lost their gifted left winger Kostitsyn for an undetermined period.
"Whether it was cheap hit or not, when one of your best players gets knocked out like that, you're not going to say it's OK - you want to respond to it," said Laraque.

from Dave Stubbs of the Montreal Gazette,
At the Bell Centre last night, a century less a year after the Canadiens' historic first game, the encomiums - glowing, praiseful words, if your Latin is rusty - were still overwhelming.
Right through a needlessly nailbiting 4-3 shootout victory over the Boston Bruins.
It began hours earlier as a playoff-like atmosphere gripped Montreal well before the home opener of the Canadiens' 100th season. This after the team had taken five of six possible points in three road games, then returned home to a city where hockey matters and all else is filler until the next game.

100 Years Of Hockey In Montreal

from Scott Burnside of ESPN,
This is where the ghosts and the flesh and blood collide.
With the air around the Bell Centre thick with the history of a glorious past, the Montreal Canadiens prepared to kick off their 100th season with their first home game of the season Wednesday night.
No matter where players on the current roster turn, whether it's to look at the two dozen Stanley Cup banners dangling from the Bell Centre rafters or the ring of honor or even in the stands where former players like Steve Shutt were on hand to watch their morning skate, the current roster is reminded of the significant burden of the past in this hockey-crazed province.

Canadiens On The Offensive

from Sean Gordon of the Globe and Mail,
It's an ironic and somewhat startling move that reveals much about this coach: a calculated decision to do away with the role he personified during a stellar 19-year playing career.
As the Montreal Canadiens kick off their 100th season, Guy Carbonneau is electing not to ice a line of specialized checking forwards.
Instead, he will throw his lot in with a rotation of three offensive lines that will share more or less equal slices of ice time, and an aggressive, physical "energy" line that will likely play only sparingly.

We have a spring break trip planned to PF, tomorrow thru April 4th. We rented a nice place thru VRBO. Good reviews, wonderful pictures. I talked to the owner on the phone before I made the reservation, and several times via email since then. Email has been the best way to reach her, since she is busy with her kids and other everyday things. Fast forward to today-- I should have gotten an email from the owner 24-48 hours before arrival with the directions and key code for the cabin. I haven't gotten it yet!! There is less than 24 hours before we are supposed to check in. I emailed this morning, then again this afternoon, using the contact form thru the VRBO listing.
I am hoping it is just me over-reacting and being paranoid....but I am seriously starting to freak out!! If I haven't gotten any response by this evening, I will start blowing up their phone. Grrrr. I really don't think the listing is any sort of scam or anything like that. I am just so stressed out. Any other time, we have gotten the directions/code a couple days before check in. I am so hoping the owner just got busy and forgot about me, and nothing worse going on! :(

Plenty of prospects were in attendance at last weekend's Instinct Showcase held by B2G Sports at UCLA. However, the player seemingly everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of, Rocklin (Calif.) Whitney's Jalen Cope-Fitzpatrick, was no where to be found.
Turns out, there was more than a legitimate reason for his absence.
Cope-Fitzpatrick was on an unofficial visit to Washington. And for programs from all over the country, this comes as news considering the 6-foot-5 and 250-plus pound tight end is one of the nation's more sought-after unsigned recruits at his position for the 2012 class.
Odds are, USC was well aware of his whereabouts given the fact that the Trojans have recently kept in contact with Cope-Fitzpatrick. Keeping the Northern Californian in-state to play his college ball and landing an all-important commitment from him appears to be a priority.
One problem: Lane Kiffin & Co. haven't offered him a scholarship yet.
All of that could be on the verge of changing though, especially once word starts to spread about him exploring his options, which appear to multiply with each passing day.
"My goal was to work with B2G Sports, but sometimes, things come up," Cope-Fitzpatrick said. "I'm hearing from a lot of different schools, that's why it was important for me to check out Washington. I plan on making some other visits too, probably very soon.
"Things are happening fast right now, there are a lot of big-time colleges talking to me. When I think about things, it's amazing, so surreal. It's crazy. I have talked with Florida, Tennessee and Notre Dame, USC too. Actually, I think USC is recruiting me the hardest."
Whether the Trojans actually up the stakes and offer him in the near future remains to be seen. And the same could be said about his other potential suitors. Auburn, Miami (FL) and Tennessee are among the other powerhouse programs that have been in contact with him.
One thing is certain: Cope-Fitzpatrick has a worthy résumé. He is, after all, one of the more high-profile players around, thus his selection to the ESPNU 150 Watch List.
Suppose that best explains why he has nine offers to date, several from the newly minted Pac-12 Conference, including Cal, Colorado, Oregon State, UCLA, Utah, Washington and Washington State. Nebraska is also in the mix. Iowa State offered on Tuesday afternoon.
"Jalen is one of those kids who is dedicated to the game, to his craft, more so than any player I've seen in years," said Ron Allen, co-founder and executive director for B2G Sports. "He is a five-star type of athlete, but he doesn't buy into all of the hype. He goes out and plays with the mentality of a three-star kid, which means he's always working hard to improve. He never settles. Jalen is hungry. He hasn't come close to peaking yet. His best football is ahead of him.
"It's funny how recruiting works. Look at someone like Jalen, he's on everyone's radar right now, and at some point, colleges are going to have to put in the extra work to land a commitment from him. He is going to make an immediate impact at the next level and that's why I feel like some of the elite schools, USC for example, are going to jump on the bandwagon soon."
In the meantime, Cope-Fitzpatrick goes about his business.
He takes care of things he can control, of course, especially once he steps foot out on the football field with the likes of B2G Sports or his high school team, Whitney.
Cope-Fitzpatrick opened plenty of eyes, college coaches and scouts alike, during his junior year when he had 29 receptions for an average of 11.28 yards per catch.
Despite facing constant double-coverage, it's also worth mentioning that he scored seven touchdowns and converted a pair of two-point conversions for the Wildcats.
"Jalen is talented player, that's no secret," said Mike Gimenez, his coach at Whitney. "Physically, he is as gifted as they come. He's fast and smart, can make the difficult catch look easy and block with the best of them against the best of them. There's not much he can't do.
"Talk about demanding attention, Jalen gets it from opposing teams, as well as colleges from just about everywhere. I'm always talking to someone about him. With another year underneath his belt, we're excited to see what he's capable of doing in his senior season."
Onlookers over at B2G Sports' Instinct Showcase were also excited to see what Cope-Fitzpatrick was capable of doing this past weekend during the two-day showcase.
Unfortunately, he was missing in action, off attending to some more pressing business up in the Pacific Northwest. With colleges from all over the country beginning to clamor for his services, all signs point to Cope-Fitzpatrick doing more of the same in the near future.
"The unofficial visit to Washington was my fourth trip so far and I have also been to Cal, UCLA and USC," Cope-Fitzpatrick said. "I liked USC, I think that would be a solid pick for me, and the coaching staff said that they'd probably offer if I kept on improving."
"All I want to do is stay optimistic and analyze things carefully. I want to go somewhere, a college, that wants me, so I'm not going to rush into a commitment. Overall, things are going well, I've heard a lot of people say that I'm blowing up on the recruiting scene."
Apparently so.

Research Institution:
AbstractThe next generation of silicon-based detectors for tracking charged-particles in high energy physics experiments must meet demanding requirements to limit material and stability, often in the presence of substantial heat loads and high radiation fields. In particular, a continuing advancement is needed in carbon-based composite material technology to minimize support-structure mass without sacrificing detector stability. This project involves a new design approach at the innermost detector layers, using specially-processed carbon foam for mounting and supporting pixels. The resulting thermally-enhanced, very-low-density carbon foam material will be ideally suited for transporting pixel electronic heat to an embedded cooling tube. In Phase I, test articles with a 600 fold increase in thermal conductivity over virgin foam will be produced, and cooling tests at the Large Hadron Collider will be conducted. In Phase II, further carbon enhancements will involve the addition of carbon nano-tubes to the foam structure. Commercial Applications and other Benefits as described by the awardee: The new carbon foam should have applicability to high-temperature heat exchangers for military and commercial aircraft, replacing Inconel and Hastelloy X fins. In addition, the carbon foam should serve as a replacement for honeycomb core materials in physics detectors where a lightweight thermally-conductive material is needed.
