Gasoline accidentally mixed with diesel fuel was sold to some customers in Olathe on Thursday.
A QuikTrip official said the mix-up happened at a terminal for its tanker trucks.
The contaminated fuel was sold at two QuikTrip gas stations on Thursday: 135th Street and Black Bob Road and 157th Street and U.S. 169.
Both stations were open Friday after the fuel was removed.
QuikTrip said that it will cover customers' costs for towing the vehicle, car rental, and vehicle repair. The company said it will also give the customers affected by the problem a full tank of gas.
People who filled up at the two stations should contact QuikTrip's Kansas City division at 913-362-3700.

Meet Roberta Mancino, a stunning skydiver and Italian model. She is making news as the female athlete voted most beautiful by Men's Fitness readers. Check out some video here.
Roberta Mancino is an extreme athlete, and has been skydiving since 2001, at which point it chose her as her profession!
She does everything from skydiving to B.A.S.E. jumping, has logged over 4,000 jumps and is the Free Fly record holder. On top of all of that, she is absolutely gorgeous!
That explains why she is a favorite among Men's Fitness readers. That and the fact that she has also done four jumps in the buff!
She just did an interview with the men's magazine, where she talked about skydiving, training for competitions (I didn't even know there were skydiving competitions, and her parachute failing. Yea, it's happened five times! Zero is enough for me!
My favorite question was about training for skydiving. Who knew?! She says,
"Sometimes I practice yoga or go to the gym. But the best training is at Skyventure XP Paraclete, an indoor skydiving wind tunnel in North Carolina where I train for the International Skydiving competitions. I can train several hours of body flight time in a couple of days. I would have to take several hundred jumps to get the same amount of training. I really feel it in my shoulders and my back. However, I think tunnel flying is a very good overall workout for your body. It is extremely cardio intensive and you need to stay mentally alert and mentally tough. If you lose track of where you are flying in relation to the wall you can get really injured. I am often very sore after flying, especially when training with the team. The freestyle training is hard because you need a lot of stretching."
You can read the full article and check out more pictures of Roberta Mancino here. A video can also be found below!

There are few things more troubling than seeing a law enforcement officer arrested for breaking the law.
Yet there also are few things more reassuring than knowing if a Columbia County cop breaks the law, then he's no longer going to be a Columbia County cop.
Like the world's oldest Energizer bunny, Dennis Trudeau this past week rolled to the rescue again in Grovetown.
It wasn't enough that he served in World War II and was a prisoner of war. It wasn't enough that he straightened out the city's famous turmoil in his 20-year tenure as mayor. It wasn't enough that he came back to fill an unexpired city council term in 2011.
Nope, at 87, Trudeau has come back again: This time to seek the city council seat vacated by Jennifer Jones, who quit in January.
All of us have things that make us angry. Sometimes, it's good to let your anger out instead of holding it in until you develop an ulcer. Other times, it's best to hold it in rather than doing something that could land you in jail or in a fight you might later regret.
One thing that angers me is seeing a dog mistreated. Why do people buy pets if they really don't want one? It's unfair to the pet and unfair to yourself.
Because a large part of the news covered by any community newspaper tends to include schools, The News-Times often has the opportunity to highlight interesting efforts from students completing their senior projects.
The collaborative project of seniors from two different schools is just too special to miss.
Lakeside High School's Mary Michael Stetz and Greenbrier High School's Amanda Freeman, at the direction of Terri Freeman (no relation), owner of Be My Guest Catering and Events, put together a prom night Saturday for all Columbia County special needs students.
In his State of the Union speech, President Obama called for taxpayer-funded universal preschool for "every child in America."
As a mom of a toddler, I reject that plan.
Babies and toddlers have what experts call an "absorbent mind," in which they learn primarily by absorbing their environment and the movement and speech of those around them. It is no surprise that they are very attached to home and family in these years. They are not "social" beings yet; their only relationship need is to feel cared for by, and be in close proximity to, the people who love them the most.
In late June 1983, I was a newspaper intern for now-defunct Augusta Herald, learning the ropes under editor Deborah Jackson and being tolerated by veteran reporters Don Rhodes and the late Margaret Twiggs.
A call from my brother came: Monty's been murdered. Could I find out what happened?
There was a confusing, yet thrilling, disconnect as I told Jackson about the call. She immediately told me to call the Columbia County Sheriff's Office.
We do things differently here.
The shootings at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., that resulted in the deaths of 20 young children has prompted several states and Congress to consider laws that would reduce the number of firearms in public places.
In Georgia, elected officials have never worried about that. They just want to keep expanding the number of guns that people can carry outside the home.
The coincidence was too much for the public not to notice.
Newly elected Richmond County Sheriff Richard Roundtree had barely moved into his office when he asked for a raise that would have bumped him up on par with the pay of the retired veteran he'd just replaced. County officials there planned to consider Roundtree's request for a raise in secret, but fortunately they later held the discussion in the open and turned it down (through Augusta's usual method: gridlock failure).

A Merrill Lynch trainee shares what it's really like to be part of the firm's revamped, more RIA-like training program
Following a scathing condemnation of the program in reaction to a recent story, another trainee chimes in with a more three-dimensional report
Brooke's Note: It's not every day that we have someone employed by Merrill Lynch willing to share thoughts. We are pleased to convey them to our readers because this person not only has observations that give a feel for what's going on there but shows the many changes that are taking place in the wirehouse world — and perhaps particularly at Merrill Lynch. Two huge trends captured by the Merrill Lynch training program, hence this article, are the RIA-ization of advice and the development of new talent in an industry that is short of it. More subtle trends would include the fact that Merrill Lynch trainees, at least this one, are (as you'll see) quite conversant about the RIA business — and the fact that they want to be part of the so-called RIA discussion, even if there is still a lingering fear that it could lead to trouble if it's done too openly.
In November, RIABiz published a story that caught the industry's attention detailing how Merrill Lynch has overhauled its longtime training program and how it is now teaching new advisors to be more like RIAs. See: Merrill Lynch makes bold moves to train new recruits for an RIA-centric future.
The story garnered some strong reader reaction. Some in the RIA arena were quite positive about Merrill's new and others were stunned that Merrill is offering CFP courses and other financial planning techniques. There were certainly skeptics who believed that Merrill is serving the same type of Kool-Aid — just in a nicer pitcher. The strongest reaction came in the form of remark posted at the end of the story from someone calling himself Scott T. Here's what he wrote:
This entire article is a barefaced lie. The training program at Merrill Lynch is an ill conceived, poorly managed farce. The entire program is designed to make recruits fail and NOT succeed. They give the recruits ridiculous goals to meet with absolutely no support. The worst part is that the "trainers" are people who were never successful in the business to begin with. Couple that with the fact that the ultimate decision on who stays and who gets fired lies with the branch managers who really have no desire or ability to train people themselves. The whole thing is a recipe for failure. See: Is Merrill Lynch taking its more RIA-like training program another step forward with Racquel Oden's promotion?.
A voice from inside
Immediately following Scott T.'s comments we asked him to e-mail us with more insight and perspective. We didn't hear back from him. Recently, however, another Merrill trainee, reacting to the content and tone of that comment, e-mailed us and offered the most thoughtful account of the program we've yet read. We agreed to not use his name and to be careful about releasing any personal details about him. He did share this about himself: "I don't have family in this business. I'm in a market geographically that I'm not native to and therefore had no network to start with," he said in an exchange of e-mails from his personal account. He also told us that before joining the program, he had been in another industry not related to sales. He says he interviewed with several different wirehouse and advisory firms including Edward Jones, Ameriprise, Northwestern Mutual and Smith Barney. Merrill was the winner because he felt the firm had the most extensive training, the best pay structure, and he also liked the fact that the firm was willing to pay trainees a salary for three-year duration of the program._
The following comments are directly from him.
A trainee's tale
I'm in the middle of the training program now at Merrill and I can probably shed some light on the program from an insider's perspective without divulging any non-public company information.
Unfortunately, while the program has improved substantially over the last two years, there was a time when I couldn't wholeheartedly disagree with comments about the program being "ill managed" as referenced in the comment above.
However, I simply can't stand to see Merrill's training program so naively misrepresented.
Anyone who's had more than one or two jobs at a large corporation should understand that their employer will have at least some delivery issues with employee training and information. I think it's a natural cause of a large organization. Whether you're an accountant, receptionist, or financial adviser — Merrill is no different. However, the tools to be successful in the financial services business are available to anyone who is willing to implement them and Merrill is constantly improving on those tools.
No excuse for failure
Even if the trainee's branch manager or mentors don't spend the amount of time with a new trainee that someone thinks they deserve, that shouldn't be an excuse for someone to fail in the program. The notion that some people believe that this program is designed to make recruits fail and not succeed is a bold statement, but it's entirely false.
I don't know any person or company, no matter how intellectually challenged they might be, who's willing to spend $250 million per year on a program "designed to make recruits fail."
I'm halfway through the program in a satellite office. So I probably don't get the same kind of attention the larger office trainees get. I personally like it that way though. I started with another trainee who was let go earlier this year because he couldn't bring in the assets he needed to reach his production goals.
He was a great guy and he knew a lot, but at the end of the day, he didn't take the initiative to complete the daily prospecting activity that we're encouraged to do while in the program. So he failed.
We were all sad to see him go because we liked him, but we weren't surprised. It wasn't a good fit for him and he wasn't willing to put in the effort to be successful. That's what it really boils down to. Merrill couldn't have known that about him ahead of time, and so they took a huge financial risk to bring him on board and it didn't work out.
Down to you
My mentor — who was responsible for this former trainee as well — has been incredibly successful in this business for decades at Merrill Lynch and other wirehouses. That being said, I think I've met with about five times in two years, but that doesn't bother me because I haven't asked for more. He would meet with me more if I asked him to.
It would be unfortunate for a new trainee to be paired up with a mentor who is not already a successful adviser. I can't say it couldn't happen, but I haven't personally seen it. If there is someone who fails in the program, it's sad, but I'm confident that if they asked for help, they'd get it. Every time, I've asked for help, I've received it. See: Sallie Krawcheck clues in green advisors about choosing that all-important first gig.
I'll be the first person to tell you that this is not an easy program. Anyone who's successful in the financial advice business, whether at Merrill or any other firm, knows that at the end of the day you can't put their failures on anyone else's shoulders but on your own.
Those who realize that early on and act like it, have a much better chance at success in this business.
I know that if I'm going to fail at Merrill, it's going to be my fault. Not the company's. Company executives such as Dwight Mathis who are heading this program are obviously cheerleading for the company and it is no surprise that he's going to present the most positive picture of the program. See: RIAs need to step it up in this market turmoil – or pay the consequences.
Different realities
I don't think there was anything Mathis said in the November article that is blatantly untrue about the program. Maybe he's just a little bit "over-positive" when giving opinions about the program and what it will do for graduating advisors in the future, but that's his opinion and he's entitled to it.
The detractors and naysayers are on the other end of the spectrum. The reality lies somewhere in the middle and it's going to be a different reality for every person in the program depending on what they make of it.
The changes being made to the program are good for the future of the advisors who choose to implement and apply the enhancements to their businesses. I have several friends in the independent and RIA space, so I know how they run their businesses and how they take care of their clients from a fiduciary position. Even they are amazed at how far Merrill's training program has come in embracing a service level and responsibility level. See: Debate continues: Fiduciary standard no panacea.
Swimming, not sinking
Simply living up to the fiduciary standard isn't going to automatically turn someone into a successful advisor, though. You can't avoid the reality that every advisor faces. You still have to get in front of enough qualified prospects who know what solutions you offer and how you can help them, and then deliver on those solutions. See: Merrill Lynch unveils changes to broker compensation.
I'm a testament to the positive changes they are making to the training program. For example, I'm almost a full year ahead of my production goals. I don't have family in this business. I'm in a market geographically that I'm not native to and therefore had no network to start with. My wife and I moved to the area just to take this position and we arrived only days before my start date.
I'm not teamed up with any other advisors yet, so all my production has been for the most part from my own efforts. The real kicker though is that I'm much younger than the average age of my clients. How do you think they like that — taking financial advice from someone the same age as their children or grandchildren? But it works and we have great working relationships and friendships where we respect each other.
I'm not writing this to toot my own horn. My point is to simply say that it's possible for anyone to be successful here who wants it bad enough. I've found this company to be a great place to work.

unable to activate ZWCAD+ 2014 Beta, dynamic block not compatible with autocad

Registered: 2013-7-12
Message 1 of 7
I could not able to activate the Temporary License and it is running with LIMITED capabilities.
However I opened my drawing which contains Dynamic Blocks, but in ZWCAD it works like normal plain block only???
I had set the BTMARKDISPLAY to 1 and VERNUM = "2013.08.07(14958)" (read only).
I don't know what you mean by "Advanced block editing with Dynamic Block".
Will you help on this issue please.

hi Subramanya,
What is the message when you failed to activate with temporary license U864-WFJL-74ND-C92K-XECQ-BSN7? By the way, the temporary license]will not be valid after Aug 31,2013, because official version will be released soon.
Could you attach this drawing with the dynamic block to this forum and let me test it? Sometimes autocad created (or other cad created) dynamic block is not 100% compatible with ZWCAD+ due to certain reason.

The former director of a nonprofit housing agency in New Orleans has pleaded guilty to conspiracy in a case that accused her of taking kickbacks from contractors.
Federal prosecutors say they will dismiss related charges against Stacey Jackson, former director of New Orleans Affordable Housing.
The four-count indictment last year also charged her with obstruction of justice, bribery and theft of federal money.
The housing agency was supposed to provide federally-financed house-gutting services after Hurricane Katrina but news reports in 2008 showed that the work was never completed.
U.S. District Judge Mary Ann Vial Lemmon scheduled sentencing for Oct 16.

Galway West TD Deputy Michael D Higgins has refused to rule out a run in the Irish Presidential elections of 2011. However, Deputy Higgins said that his current focus was on solving the problems facing the country, rather than making plans for an election two years away. "I would not rule out a run, but, to be honest, I have yet to give it any significant thought. I am spending my time trying to suggest alternative strategies for the country to get itself out of this current state.

The shocking story of what happened in Ireland's infamous Magdalene Laundries has been explored in a brand new documentary that was filmed by a Kildare man. Prosperous local Ger Boland was the cameraman on the film The Forgotten Maggies, which takes a harrowing look at the lives of women who lived in the laundries in Ireland. The film was three years in the making and was the original brainchild of Cork man Stephen O'Riordan.

The escalation of violence in Carrick-on-Shannon recently was highlighted the weekend before last when a fight between two young men in the early hours of that Saturday morning ended with one man having the top of his ear bitten off. The incident occurred on Main Street, Carrick-on-Shannon when two young local men in their early twenties got into an altercation. The fight involving just the two of them continued on the ground and ended with one man biting the other man's ear and taking off the top section.

James Hannon, Edgeworthstown, was looking forward to competing in the life-affirming games, where, between them, the Irish team members have 13 new kidneys, five new livers and one new kidney-pancreas. The squad traveled to the Gold Coast of Australia, on Tuesday last.

Four members of her family hailed brave Holly Mawhood a hero last week after her quick thinking saved them from their burning home last Friday. The fearless five-year old didn't hesitate to get her mother, brother and elderly grandparents who were visiting from England out of the house when she realized that a fire was quickly taking hold in the sitting room downstairs at the family's semi-detached home in Townley Manor, Tullyallen. Holly's mum, Heather, 35 said, 'But for Holly's calm and efficient way of dealing with it, we could all be dead.'

Research Interests
Multivalent biomolecular interactions are very important in biological systems. A deeper understanding of the thermodynamics and kinetics of multivalent interactions in biological systems is imperative in the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic agents. My lab focuses on both understanding the basic dynamic principles of multivalent biomolecular interactions, as well as design of multivalent therapeutic and diagnostic molecules which will deliver novel solutions to complex diseases (e.g. cancer, autoimmune diseases, and allergies).

Tangled was not my very favorite book on earth. It was good, and readable, and I enjoyed it, but there's one very big reason that I decided to review it right now...
We could all use a little warmth in our lives during this cold January days and Tangled is a great place to find that warmth. I can almost imagine the sunny breeze on my face, the waves lapping the beach.
But this is about the book and my dreams of a vacation!
Tangled is about four kids, Jena, Skye, Dakota, and Owen meet at a Caribben resort called Paradise. This story follows their lives from that point and through the four months following their vacations.
What I particularly enjoyed about this story was the unique way it was told. Each of the characters has a quarter of the book to tell their story. It's fair and well divided, and really well balanced. I never felt like I was learning more about one character than another.
So if you're looking for a good, easy read that at least partially takes place SOMEWHERE BESIDES NEW JERSEY IN JANUARY I would recommend Tangled.

Super Bowl week has already suffered a depressing blow. The Fox network has announced it won't accept political advertising during the game telecast.
What rotten luck, huh? I think we were all looking forward to seeing Tom Brady's string of touchdown passes interrupted by Barack Obama's or Mitt Romney's position statements on the tax code.
I'm kidding. But at least the political ads would be something different. Super Bowl commercials have become woefully predictable. I can already tell you what's coming Sunday.
First, somebody will jump off a plane or dive into a Jacuzzi full of snakes to get a Bud Light. Then we'll see a trailer for the latest dopey Adam Sandler movie. Then some lovely model will writhe around for an Internet site that will be out of business within a year.
Too bad. There are so many new and unique opportunities being missed. Especially this year. On my own dream Super Bowl telecast, here is how the commercials would unspool:
First quarter
"The Boot" - We see grainy, wobbly footage of a man in a dark, hooded sweatshirt. He is hobbling down the street with a therapeutic boot on his foot. Suddenly, the camera pans in, the hood is pulled back and the person turns out to be . . . Raiders Coach Lane Kiffin, who says: "I may be wounded, but I'm not going away. Thanks to my lawyer, my contract says I get paid no matter what.
"Diet Shout-Out" - Don Shula yells: "I lost 42 pounds of fat!" Dan Marino yells: "I lost 53 pounds of blubber!" Norv Turner yells: "I lost a 25-pound monkey on my back! But you know what? He was still easier to deal with than Al Davis after a loss! Thank you, anyway, NutriSystem!"
Second quarter
"Reunion" - Tinkly piano music. An empty arena. Two figures are running in slow motion toward each other. They are Warriors Coach Don Nelson and his favorite old/new player, Chris Webber. They embrace and hand each other greeting cards. Nelson's reads: You complete me, unless you pull that 1994 crap again. Webber's reads: At crunch time, you can count on me . . . to take a time out. Camera then pans to Tom Gugliotta, seated at midcourt, saying: "At Hallmark, we have cards for every occasion, even if the happiness lasts less than a month, which it will in this case, trust me, for sure, you betcha."
"The Boot II" - We see more grainy, wobbly footage of a man in a dark, hooded sweatshirt. He is hobbling down the street with a therapeutic boot on his foot. Suddenly, the camera pans in, the hood is pulled back and the person turns out to be . . . former baseball player Chuck Knoblauch, who says: "I'm not afraid of being found now. And I won't be limping into my steroid deposition before Congress. Why? I found an attorney who'll have my back. The Legal Aid Society - don't leave home without it."
Third quarter
"Contrast" - Randy Moss, the wide receiver, is seen jogging in a dog kennel with a mopey expression, chased by drooling basset hounds. Narrator: "This was Randy Moss with the Raiders." Moss is then seen frolicking on a playground with happy children and balloons and confetti. Narrator: "This is Randy Moss with the Patriots." These words then appear on screen: "Every dog has his day. Sometimes he just needs a change of scenery. Atlas Moving Vans make it happen."
"Bleakness." - Camera pans a windswept desert. Tumbleweed blowing. No sign of life is present. Narrator: "Ladies and gentlemen, your 2008 San Francisco Giants and Oakland A's rosters. Good seats are available. Call now."
Fourth quarter
"Can You Hear My B-12 Shot Now?" - Roger Clemens is seen on his cell phone, talking. "Hi, no, I'm not taping this call. Why would you think I was taping this call? I'm just confirming to you that I'm not taking any injections in my buttocks, so that you can confirm that I confirmed that. Huh? No, ignore the clicking sound. Can you just confirm that I have confirmed that there is no needle sticking out of any portion of my body?" Narrator: "Verizon Wireless. The perfect connection for when you're needling someone."
"The Boot III" - We see still more grainy, wobbly footage of a man in a dark, hooded sweatshirt. He is hobbling down the street with a therapeutic boot on his foot. Suddenly, the camera pans in, the hood is pulled back and the person turns out to be . . . Peyton Manning, who says: "You didn't really think you could get through an entire Super Bowl without seeing one ad with me, did you? If you don't like it, sue. Call the Legal Aid Society. Although with pro sports these days, no attorney is going hungry. Enjoy the rest of the game. Go Eli. Now excuse me while I jump off a plane with this lovely model to go see the new Adam Sandler movie."

Heckmann Gets Much Desired Applause for Power Fuels Deal
Richard Heckmann thought his company's deal for Power Fuels would be egg on the face of those analysts that criticized his previous moves. So far the analysts appear to be conceding.
Shared of Heckmann Corp. closed up 38% to $3.71 Tuesday amid the $381 million deal for Power Fuels, which gives Heckmann, a water treatment company, a foothold in the important Bakken Shale area, where the company's products will be used for hydraulic fracking.
This come after Heckmann shares had lost some 60% this year after analysts criticized an earlier deal for Thermo Fluids, an oil-recycling and environmental company, and wondered why Heckmann suddenly refused to give earnings guidance.
Tuesday, on a conference call with analysts, Mr. Heckmann said in his introductory remarks that "we're more interested in what you have to say than what we have to say."
He was largely rewarded with applause: The executives received a few congratulations and one "keep up the good work," from the handful of analysts on the call. That came even as the company declined once again to offer earnings guidance, though this time it was able to blame that on the pending shareholder vote on the acquisition.
Mr. Heckmann also volunteered that the company had been in discussions with Power Fuels before the company closed its deal to buy Thermal Fluids.
Roth Capital analysts wrote in a note today that "We view this transaction positively as it helps to clarify the corporate strategy, gives the company access to the attractive Bakken market, and bolsters the overall financial strength of the company, in our view."

The Sharks wouldn't acknowledge hearing Jeremy Roenick's pointed comments about Patrick Marleau as they boarded a plane for Detroit on Monday morning. But they were well aware that Roenick had referred to his former teammate as "gutless," meaning they headed east with that baggage also in tow.
Roenick's scathing critique, from his perch as a Versus television analyst, pointed a harsh spotlight on Marleau -- who has zero points in a series the Sharks went from controlling 3-0 to the brink of losing control.
However they feel about the outspoken Roenick's phrasing, the Sharks can't deny this much: Marleau's absence from the score sheet is taking a toll as the team tries for a third time to close out this playoff series Tuesday in Game 6 at Joe Louis Arena.
In Sunday's postgame show, Roenick said the Sharks forward turned in a "gutless, gutless performance" against Red Wings star Pavel Datsyuk in the pivotal sequence that led to the winning goal in Detroit's 4-3 victory.
"He needs to be better," said Sharks coach Todd McLellan, who declined to specifically address Roenick's condemnation of Marleau. "It's as simple as that. We need him to be better offensively and defensively. But he's one individual. There are others on that line. There's a D-pair on the ice. There's a goaltender. There are a number of people who have to pick up their play."
McLellan called Game 5 "a team loss." But the lightning rod has become Marleau -- the one-time Sharks captain who led the team in regular-season points and now has disappeared in this series.
When he was visible Sunday, it wasn't for something good. Tomas Holmstrom's winning goal came after Datsyuk first took the puck away from Marleau along the boards in the San Jose zone and then kept the Sharks forward away from it long enough to set up the decisive play.
That kept the Red Wings alive in this series and is what set off Roenick, the outspoken ex-Shark who has been a frequent Marleau critic. When asked on-air if he thought Marleau was hurt, Roenick responded: "Yeah, he's hurt. He's hurt all right. Right here he's hurt."
And he pointed to his heart.
The remarks, unusually candid and personal in hockey's conservative culture, created a firestorm over the airwaves and in the social media world.
Marleau said he was told of what Roenick had said Monday morning but would not address it despite persistent questions from reporters.
"There's nothing I can do about it," Marleau said. "People are going to say things. But what I can control is how I play and how I get ready for the next game."
Marleau, who has 15 shots in the series, said he believes he has "done some really good things" that contribute in other ways. He believes it's just a matter of time before he begins scoring again.
"I do feel points are going to come," he said. "I've been all around it, close to the net and getting some good chances. It's bound to happen."
Before the playoffs, Roenick said he couldn't understand why Marleau's passion doesn't seem to match his immense skill level. He reiterated that Monday in a phone interview.
"I am not a Patrick Marleau fan. I'm not going to pretend to be," he said. "But I also will tell you that he is an incredible, incredible talent. I wish I had the talent he has. If I had the talent Patrick Marleau has, I wouldn't even know what I could have done. But I have my opinion of his determination and effort level, especially with the amount of money that he makes.
"I really feel that the San Jose Sharks, the fans and (general manager) Doug Wilson deserve a better effort than they have gotten on a lot of nights in this series. And I have the ability to say that. This is not an act. This is me speaking my mind. Patrick Marleau has a lot of fans. I just happen to be not one of them."
Roenick said the plays against Datsyuk -- losing the battle for the puck and then not recovering it -- are examples of what he means when he talks about Marleau's lack of competitive will.
"When you're in a position to close out your archrival, I think you need a better effort," Roenick said. "I don't think it was there, and I stand by what I said."
He added: "The word gutless might have been a little strong. But I chose to use it, and I'm not backing off it."
Later, during Monday's Versus telecast, Roenick backtracked slightly, calling the word "gutless" a poor choice but stuck to his overall criticism.
Marleau, of course, often has shined for the Sharks in clutch situations. This year, he became the first San Jose player to score three overtime goals in one season. He was the one player who delivered in the Western Conference finals loss to Chicago last spring, scoring five of the Sharks' seven goals.
And he also had two winning goals against the Red Wings in the playoffs last year -- include one in overtime at The Joe.
But when things go wrong for the Sharks, Marleau and Joe Thornton tend to get the lion's share of the blame because they are the team's most talented players.
Monday, Thornton did his best to tamp the public kerfuffle. He said the focus is on what is said inside the locker room and not in the media.
"Patty has scored a lot of big goals," he said. "We realize that it's a team sport, and we all have to be better. That's just the bottom line. The good news is we're still in control of the series, and we just have to win one game to advance."

Arrica Okenka, 30, says she can't live without her dog Ingrid. Ingrid
isn't just any old pet. She's a service dog and helps Okenka who has
cerebral palsy do everything. Monday they were on a Tarta bus headed to
the mall when a man tried to steal the dog.
"I wasn't letting go I had a death grip on her. He would have had to
drag me off the bus with her," said the victim Arrica Okenka.
The attempted theft was caught on the bus surveillance camera. The guy stands up and steps over the dog.
"I had my her leash wrapped around my hand and he grabbed the leash and it cut my hand," said Okenka.
When she didn't let go, the guy hopped off the bus.
"What were you going to do? Were you going to bate her to fight with
another dog were you going to just see if she can do all the things she
does for me for you" said the victim.
Arrica says she's had ingrid for four years. The video of the
incident appears to have gone viral. She hopes you'll share the video
and help police track down the man who tried to steal her bestfriend
"That stings a little bit just that thought that you were going to take
something from me that I need we need each other," said Okenka
Toledo police say if you recognize the suspect call Crime Stoppers at 419-255-1111.

If like me you were stuck with FeedBlitz subscribers, or subscribers on any other network that you wanted to move over to Feedburner, then here's the method I discovered today.
Feedburner is the number one service that allows bloggers control over their feed. If like me you've been using their services for a long time, you might have signed up for a Feedblitz account so that you could still offer a email subscription offer to your readers. In fact, Feedburner used to over their email service via FeedBlitz.
However, Feedburner now offer their own service which in my view is much better as it includes the very cool 'FeedFlare' service that adds nice additional functionality to your feed for readers including email this, technorati links, comments count and the ever-present 'digg this' link.
Other benefits of moving would be that all your email RSS readers would be managed by one service, and you'll improve your blog's bragging rights ('my feed count's bigger than yours mate!') by giving your feed count an overnight boost. It might even give you a nice revenue boost if you are part of the Feedburner FAN advertising network.
So how do you move? Do the following:
- Log into feedBlitz and go to 'My Account' and select 'My Syndications/View and Manage'
- Find the feed you want to move. Click on it and select 'Subscribers' and then 'Export (OPML)'
Now all you have to do is email the nice people at Feedburner and they'll add the subscribers to your Feedburner subscriber list. Simple. I'm so glad that I discovered this simple fix today, as I was on the verge of emailing directly my FeedBlitz subscribers and asking them to move, which wouldn't have been very nice…..
I'm assuming this fix will work with any other feed that allows you to export an OPML. Let me know if this solves a nagging problem for you as well, or if this allows you to merge a different feed network with Feedburner.

Linen Palazzo Pant Jumpsuit by Jamie Lau Designs
I've been busy designing jumpsuits this month, including a style with a drawstring waist in embroidered Japanese cotton. For my latest edition of Fashion Travelogue, I selected two beautiful fabrics from the Britex linen category for a bolder jumpsuit look – a colorblock palazzo pant style with short kimono sleeves. For the yoke and necktie, I chose a lightweight linen that is a cross between hunter green and teal green. And for the volume-heavy part of the garment, I selected a midweight linen that is a lovely mix of warm copper and terracotta tones. The width on both of these fabrics is quite generous (58"-59" wide), perfect for wide leg pants. Click here to read more »

As full-time caregiver for my aging mother, Marjorie, I often asked God how I could make her life meaningful even as she declined both physically and mentally.
Although my mother's memory had deteriorated to the point that she occasionally didn't even know who I was, she still retained her loving spirit and sense of humor. People enjoyed being around her. It occurred to me one day as I was praying that God still had work for her to do at this stage in her life. And it seemed that because so much of Mother was already gone, you could see more of the Lord living in her precisely because there was less of her to get in the way.
I realized Mother still had a ministry: God was using her to channel his love to others—primarily her caregivers.
This was certainly true in my own life. I had brought my mom to live with my husband and me more than four years ago. God had given me this assignment of caring for her, and I sought to be completely obedient to him in the process.
But when her needs became greater, and it became more and more difficult for me to care for her, God brought some wonderful women into my life to help. I occasionally had opportunities to travel with my husband, and I needed caregivers who could come in and care for Mother in our home. Sharon, who had been widowed at a relatively young age and whose only child was now in college, told me that caring for Mother had given her a new purpose and joy in using her gifts in serving others. She, too, was seeking how God could use her. But Sharon went beyond just caring for my mom—she began caring for me, too.
Because Mother could no longer be left alone, Sharon volunteered to give up going to the Tuesday morning Bible Study at her church to stay with Mother so I could go to the Women's Bible Study at my church. She not only took care of getting Mother up and dressed, fixing her breakfast, administering her medications, and interacting with her; she also volunteered to get her lunch, pack a snack for the afternoon and take her to an afternoon daycare program so I could have the whole day off. That was truly love in action!
However, even more amazing was how God used Mother in her final days to pour out his love to another caregiver, Tracey.
Our relationship with Tracey began as I sought to find someone to team up with Sharon while my husband and I went on a trip. Sharon would take the daytime shift and another caregiver would take the night shift. It was spring break for the schools in our area, and none of the other women who had stayed with Mother in the past were available. After exhausting my list, I was beginning to think I might need to stay home when a friend recommended a single woman in her Bible study who had just been laid off from her job. Although I didn't know her, I called her in desperation. She was available and willing to serve us in this way. Little did I realize God's plan at the time—Tracey immediately fell in love with Mother.

Each year, many homeowners end up spending thousands of dollars on fixing frozen pipes. During periods of extremely cold weather, it's common for the water in pipes to freeze. Since water expands when it freezes, this often results in a pressure crack in the pipes, which then causes the pipes to "burst". This breach in the pipe can cause flooding, which will most likely result in further damage expenses. To prevent this, it's best to know some simple tips and tricks you can use to keep your pipes from freezing.
Winter Safety – Frozen Pipes Tip 1: Add Insulation
A great way to help reduce the chances that your pipes will freeze is to insulate them before the cold weather hits. Any exposed piping in your house will benefit from insulation, which helps to lower the risk of frozen pipes. If you aren't comfortable insulating your pipes yourself, you can always consult a professional to do it for you.
Winter Safety – Frozen Pipes Tip 2: Seal Off Drafts
Another method that you can use to help prevent frozen pipes is to seal off any cracks that allow cold air to come in contact with exposed piping. Some of the most common areas where cold air can enter your home are around dryer vents, electrical wiring or through small spaces in between siding (for unfinished walls). To seal these cracks, you can use electrical tape, but using caulk or extra insulation provides a more permanent solution.
Winter Safety – Frozen Pipes Tip 3: Open Your Faucets
To help prevent your pipes from freezing, you may want to open the faucets in your home. This should be done on especially cold nights, or when you expect to be away from your home for a significant amount of time. In some cases, a small trickle of water running through the pipe may be enough to prevent your pipes from freezing. Be sure to only turn on your faucets if you have an unobstructed drain which allows for free draining of water from the faucet.
Winter Safety – Frozen Pipes Tip 4: Expose Main-Floor Piping
To help prevent pipes on your main floor from freezing, you may want to expose them to heat. Now, it should be noted that this should only be done for piping that is in areas such as under sinks or in cabinets. Open the door of the cabinet to expose the piping to the heat circulating around the rest of the floor. It's recommended that you do this on the same floor where your primary heat vents are located.
Winter Safety – Frozen Pipes Tip 5: Set Your Thermostat
Many people tend to turn their thermostat down or off when they leave their home. This is actually one of the most common reasons why pipes may freeze. Even though it may not seem cost-effective to leave your heat running in your absence, it can be very important for preventing the additional expense of fixing frozen pipes. Set your thermostat no lower than 55F, and be sure that your heat source is well-supplied to heat your home in your absence.
Winter Safety – Frozen Pipes Tip 6: Shut Off Outdoor Faucets
If you have a garden hose, it's highly recommended that you shut off the valve of the pipe that leads to the outdoor faucet. In the winter, the short length of piping that extends to the hose faucet may collect water, which has a much higher chance of freezing. It's also important that you disconnect any garden hoses in your yard, storing them safely until they may be reconnected in spring.

Amitabh Bachchan to Mumbai terror attack gunman Ajmal Kasab, Urdu poet Nida Fazil took an U-turn. Overruling media reports, Fazil on Monday, Jan 14 claimed that his statement was fabricated and twisted.
Accusing media of misquoting him, Fazil was quoted as saying, "I never called Amitabh a terrorist. To create controversy the media twisted whatever I had said and started a new debate. I was talking about the image of the angry young man, not Amitabh. He is a fine artiste with multiple talents. But just like every other artiste, he too has some limitations."
Clarifying his remark against Big B, Fazil said, "I was referring to image of the angry young man here. Also, I feel the angry young man image shouldn't have been restricted to the 70s only. Why is only Amitabh called the angry young man? Have we forgotten 74-year-old Anna Hazare? I feel there is more anger today than it was then."
The entire controversy erupted when the 74-year-old Urdu poet had expressed his thoughts regarding the "angry young man" image which generally is identified with Big B. Hatching the comparison between the senior Bachchan and Kasab, the poet said, "Why was Amitabh given the title of the angry young man? He was just a created toy, just like Ajmal Kasab. One was created by Salim-Javed and the other was made by Hafiz Mohammad Saeed. The toy has been hanged but the toy-maker is free."

Water is timeless… or is it? This installation of works from the Spencer's permanent collection explores contemporary artists' perspectives on the elixir of life: H₂0. Many of the works assembled for this installation take an eco-critical approach to the subject matter, exploring pollution and scarcity, whereas others address water less literally and more symbolically, as a cleansing or destructive force. From this selection of 20th- and 21st-century works, a subtle visual dialogue emerges between the Kaw River of Kansas and the Yangtze of China.
On view now in the Spencer's Water exhibition, Lisa Grossman's 86 bends of the Kaw, made possible by a gift from Elizabeth Schultz and the Peter T. Bohan Art Acquisition Fund, ambitiously documents the shapes of the Kansas river at sunset from a low-flying airplane. The artist recently answered a couple of questions about her work.
What were your impressions of the Water exhibition, overall? Did you come away from it with new thoughts or ideas?
First of all, I appreciated the quote from Ben Franklin. I think most people are aware that water is a finite resource that our very lives depend on. It's been said that the next wars will be fought over water so I'm thrilled the Spencer is presenting this exhibit for reflection and conversation. I'm deeply honored to be a part of it.
It was fascinating to see my print panels juxtaposed with the Yangtze piece, opposite, and also with the film footage of the 1951 flooding in this region. Honestly, I can't stop thinking about the artist, Chen Zhiyuan, who drank from the Yangtze River. As I approached the photographs I was saying to myself, he's not really drinking that water is he? I'm pretty sure it's one of the world's most polluted rivers. Sure enough, he drank the water, and I wasn't surprised that the placard revealed that he became ill after the project. When I kayak on the Kaw or most waterways, I try to minimize my contact with the water and am very careful to not ingest any. I found myself thinking of this artist sacrificing his health to make a statement about the river, maybe in the way hunger strikers attract attention to an issue. Intriguing, and I hope he stays healthy enough to keep making art!
Was there a particular moment or observation that inspired 86 Bends of the Kaw? An "aha" moment that you would be willing to share?
When I began making paintings and prints of the Kaw from my footage, I was driven to find a way to grasp a sense of the whole river, all those sweeping bends that you see from the air. I started making series of woodcuts in an attempt to give a sense of movement and time passing. Stepping back from the prints, I realized they gave an impression of the frame-by-frame nature of my snapshots and video from my experience of flying back and forth over the river. I set out to make one large piece that captured the entire 170 miles of the river as if you were flying from Kansas City to Junction City, toward sundown.
I couldn't help but notice and appreciate the black and white footage of the '51 flood rolling next to my piece. It has a bit of that same choppy feeling in monochrome.
Did anything surprise you about the view of the Kaw from a plane at sunset?
Until 2002, I'd never seen the Kaw from the air. On a flight from Los Angeles back into Kansas City, I caught an unforgettable glimpse of the river as we were flying low over Lawrence where I live. I shot some video out the window of this gorgeous blue river snaking West toward the sunset. I had to see more, so I began flying the 170-mile length of the river valley with a local pilot so I could document it with photography and video to use for my work. Just a little elevation revealed the Kaw's stunning beauty that most people never have the opportunity to see.
What is unique or crucial about visual artists' contributions to conversations about the environment?
That's a huge question. Visual art's impact can be immediate and powerful. Some of it's shocking, saddening, confusing, inspiring…there's a place for every angle and approach. Artists can help people see, think, reflect, feel, and perhaps care, and I believe that's absolutely crucial for progress to happen in reinvisioning our place on the planet, in our bioregions, in the cosmos.
