Day: November 13, 2012
Ben Vida, Eli Keszler and Jeff Ziegler in Philadelphia November 16th
From Bowerbird:
November 16th
Bowerbird Presents GATE
@ The Rotunda
4014 Walnut Street
8pm; FREE
Utilizing modular synthesizer, computer, drum kit and motorized percussive objects Vida and Keszler play an ecstatic form of electro-acoustic music.
Ben Vida is a Brooklyn based composer, improviser and sound artist. He produces compositions that use analog and digital synthesizing technologies and focus on aural phenomena and sound localization. Ben has released over twenty records on such labels as PAN, Thrill Jockey, Drag City, Amish, Bottrop-Boy, Hapna and Kranky. As both a solo artist and in collaboration he has presented his work in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, South Korea and Japan.
Born in Brookline, Massachusetts, and currently based in New York City, Eli Keszler began playing drums at eight, and composing at twelve. Before finding an interest in experimental music and improvisation, he played in rock and hardcore bands; his work retains an intense physicality and churning, often ferocious energy. He is a graduate of the New England Conservatory, where he studied composition with Anthony Coleman and Ran Blake. He has collaborated with Phill Niblock, Roscoe Mitchell, Tony Conrad, Joe McPhee, Loren Connors, Jandek, and many others, and has recorded more than a dozen CDs and LPs for ESP-DISK, REL, and PAN.
Mats Gustafsson Interview
From All About Jazz:
Reedman Mats Gustafsson resides at the center of a hurricane of activity: relentlessly touring, curating festivals and begetting record labels. He boasts one of most distinctive sounds in free jazz, combining the extremes of scalp prickling howls with adventurous exploration of minimalist tone and timbre. Although he's come a long way since his early days in a punk rock band in Sweden's Lapland, that anarchic energy is never far away, revealed in collaborations with luminaries from both the Old and New Worlds, such as reedmen Peter Brötzmann, Ken Vandermark and Joe McPhee, and guitarists Thurston Moore, Jim O'Rourke and Yoshihide Otomo.

|High Five feels like a 10 in places, but my guess is that after I've climbed it a few times, I'll agree it's a solid 9. There's a neat variety of hand-holds, from crimps and jugs to tiny single-finger pockets (which you will probably need to use to stand up on the first low mantle). A fun route that's worth trying.

Nancy's Shamelessly White Trash Superbowl Dip
I'm not sure where the term "White Trash" came from, with reference to this dish; I do know that whenever I hear that phrase, I think of Nancy and her dip. We lost Nancy to complications related to her melanoma in November of 2000, and there's not a day that goes by without my thinking of her. She was outrageously funny – in a self deprecating sort of way; referring to her recipes as "white trash" this-or-that, playing down her incredible acts of volunteerism that ate up any and all of her free time, frequently making something for an expectant mother, a family experiencing a loss…always giving of herself and her time. Nancy was a community treasure and I know the world is a much better place because of her.
And while I don't believe that Nancy was an inherently huge football fan, she adored her boys. Watching them grow up playing football sparked a love for the game in her as well. When the kids were older, if there was a college match-up or an especially big NFL game on TV, Nancy would burst on the scene with the "White Trash Dip" and a bag of tortilla chips. And that dip never stood a chance, it was scrumptious!
More recently, the dip has morphed into what my family calls "Shameless Dip", after the Showtime series on Sunday night TV. If you do not watch the show, you may not know how shamelessly trashy and crazy the featured family is – it was my oldest daughter that pointed out, several seasons ago, how great our "White Trash Dip" would go with our Sunday night Shameless viewing. And a new tradition was born; I love it when families create new traditions from old.
Now, with the advent of blogging (something Nancy would've gotten a big kick out of), I am privileged to share her famous dip with you, dear reader. Ready yourself.
You will need:
One 15 oz. can of chili. Whatever kind you like, organic, toxic, homemade, whatever.
One 8 oz brick of plain cream cheese.
One small (4 oz) can of diced green chilies. Go hot, go mild, whatever you like.
*Optional* One small (2.25 oz) can of sliced black olives, drained.
Dump everything into a saucepan and heat over medium low until the cream cheese is melted and the ingredients are incorporated. Stir it from time to time, but don't rush it with higher heat or you will have scorched dip on the bottom of your pan.
(I had to insert the quintessential trashy stove top shot)
If you are feeling especially white trash, just set the whole pan on the coffee table with a hot pad underneath and drop a bag of chips down for everyone to scarf.
Have I mentioned that this is not a fancy dip? Oh, you could class it up – it cleans up real nice. Put it in a fancy bowl, serve it out of a small crock pot, no one else needs to know what it's really called, your secret is safe with me.
And for your football parties, this dip goes great with a big bowl of penalty flag suckers too!

Colorado Springs Low Cost Dentures
Today there are many Colorado Springs denture services which can provide both function and enhanced cosmetic appearances for all. There are benefits low cost Colorado Springs dentures have over premium dentures, and that is they can be replaced in a shorter time at a lower dental cost.
Colorado Springs Cheap Dentures
Implant Dentistry
Low Cost Colorado Springs Dentures
Often Low cost Colorado Springs dentures may need to clean their dentures more often, that is soaking them in denture cleaner. This is because the materials wear faster, of which also could mean the material is not as durable as premium dentures.
While there are many benefits to having low cost dentures, one benefit sticks out from the rest and that is the ability to replace the denture more often than with premium dentures. The materials Colorado Springs low cost dentures are made from are softer and usually will wear down faster, discoloring may set in after a few years of use. The oportunity to replace discolored dentures is perhpas another feature low cost dentures have.
Colorado Springs Dentures Process
The mouth must be in the best health, and prepared to wear a denture. This could include dental improvements, such as teeth extractions. After the mouth has healed, the denture then can be made. When Colorado Springs dentures are made, several steps are completed before they leave the dental office.
Dental impressions with alginate, fitting a wax model, adjusting the new denture. Dental impressions involves the process in using a soft puttly like material called alginate to record structure of the mouth. This material must be removed with extreme care from the mouth, cannot be bent during the removal. Shaped Colorado Springs dental impression material is then used to make a wax model. This wax model is then used by the dental professional to test run the dentures fit. Wax can be added or removed with ease to the sample denture. Once the Colorado Springs dentist has made sure the closure of the mouth is perfected, the wax model is then handed back to the dental lab from which a denture can be made. The final step involves in the fitting of the plastic denture, where once again the denture has material added or removed to ensure a tight fit.

Immediate Dentures
When frequenting the dental office about dentures, a professional may advise their patient to get a immediate denture before their teeth extractions. It may take many weeks for the mouth to heal properly before a more permanent denture can be worn. After a tooth extraction, the gums may change shape, and is where an immediate denture is useful until the gums have completely healed. It would be a waste of money to get a permanent denture made, then to only throw it away within a few months to get another one.
Colorado Springs Tooth Extraction Preparation
Usually during your denture consultation the dentist will examine your mouth to make sure the mouth is healthy to continue or to wear new dentures. Should there be a need for an extraction, the dentist will then take an impression of the mouth and use that impression to make immediate dentures.
Colorado Springs Dentures Consultation
Should a denture need to be replaced, or fixed, it might be the right time to schedule an appointment with a Colorado Springs dentures office. It is very important all patients to have a snug denture.
Overtime, the mouth changes, gums may shrink in size, and other mouth features may change. Sometime, over long durations of wearing the same denture, the denture may need to be replaced with a tighter fitting denture to slow down the loss of the gums as caused by an old and tattered denture.
It could be possible the current denture is finally now very comfortable, however, the loose denture can also cause harm. Scheduling an appointment with any denture professional could provide additional information about the health of the mouth, and other important information such as additional extractions, or getting a backup denture.

Shogun 2: Total War Cheats
I can't believe that people are getting stressed over delays in trainer posting. Customer service and support far outshines what you will get in everyday life in the marketplace or workplace. If CheatHappens isn't fast enough for some people then they can hire a full-time programmer or learn programming and the situation is resolved. The rest of us that appreciate what the CheatHappens staff do can enjoy our subscription.
Agree completely. I'm usually dumbfounded by how quickly these trainers come out. I can't recall having to wait even 24 hours for trainers for a new game or for one that was patched. Maybe that's been luck for me, but even if I had to wait a day, that's still awesome.
i think a day w8ting for a trainer is nothing.
and im always pleased to see the trainer always working (if my virus scan alows it :P but that problem i have solved now to XD)
and steam suck i agree at some points but its nice to know that he instals the patch because im not going to look for al those patches my self and to make al lot of downloadebel contents available is nice because before steam you had te buy a whole CD for that soort of things

Copyright 2001 Milwaukee Journal Sentinel June 3, 2001 By JENNIFER BOWLES Riverside Press-Enterprise
Riverside, Calif. -- The California spotted owl has been steadily declining in the Southern California mountains -- the San Bernardinos, San Jacintos, Santa Anas among them -- as well as the Sierra Nevada, and is at the center of renewed haggling over the Endangered Species Act.
An environmental group is seeking to have the bird protected under the act, just the kind of lawsuit the Bush administration is attempting to curb.
Federal protection for the owl most likely wouldn't create the level of uproar that came from the Northwest timber industry when the bird's cousin, the northern spotted owl, was placed on the threatened-species list in 1990.
Logging in the Southern California mountains is limited to cutting trees for firewood. And while the San Bernardino National Forest is a playground for 8 million people each year, even recreation would not be seriously restricted. A few hiking and off-road trails already have been rerouted around owl nests, said Forest Service spokeswoman Ruth Wenstrom.
But construction projects that require clearing wide swaths of trees, such as power lines, sewer lines, new roads or expansion of a ski resort, could face tougher obstacles in getting approval, Wenstrom said.
"We intend to keep them off the threatened and endangered species list," said Matt Mathes, a Forest Service spokesman. " Frankly, when animals get on that list, that's something of a failure on the part of humans. That's not supposed to happen."
While logging is the main culprit in the owl's decline in the Sierra range, a multitude of issues plagues the owl's life in Southern California.
Among the potential problems, said Bill La Haye, a wildlife biologist working for the Forest Service, are damaging air pollution that banks up against the mountains; homes and ski resorts that chew up and fragment owl habitat; drought and wildfires.
The owls, the environmentalists say, are important to humans because they are indicators of the health of forests.
The Center for Biological Diversity is impatient with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's progress in helping the owl and has filed notice that it intends to sue the agency in an effort to get protection.
The service acknowledged in October that the owl's populations are declining and said it intended to decide by March whether to give the species federal protection. March came and went.
"It's on the back burner at the moment," said Pat Foulk, a spokeswoman for the agency's Sacramento office.
Environmentalists say lawsuits are the only way most species get protection. Legal action forced protection for the California spotted owl's cousins: the northern spotted owl and the Mexican spotted owl.
But the Bush administration is trying to quash the onslaught of such lawsuits -- there are 75 current lawsuits covering more than 400 species, plus 86 notices of intent to sue covering 640 more species, said Jane Hendron, a Fish and Wildlife spokeswoman.
Note: Are these winds a consequence of the nearby fire itself?
Felt it in Chatsworth. That was a mild one. The bigger one comes later!
But not in Senator Dashle's state...he snuck in a stealth provision in a bill to allow forest clearing

The Wales international, 23, is also favourite to win the Young Player of the Year Award, the other honour voted by members of the Professional Footballers Association (PFA), after scoring 22 goals for Spurs and five for Wales this season.
He was also named PFA Player of the Year in 2011 and early indications show he is the front-runner for the Footballer of the Year Award voted on by members of England's Football Writers Association.
He faces some strong opposition though, as Robin van Persie has had a fine first season at Manchester United scoring 25 goals, despite a 10-game goal drought which ended last week, while Luis Suarez has been in superb form for Liverpool with 29 goals.
Bale was installed as the 4/11 favourite by bookmakers SkyBet, ahead of Van Persie and Suarez, both 4/1, Juan Mata of Chelsea (66/1) and outsiders, Eden Hazard of Chelsea and Michael Carrick of Manchester United, both rated at 100/1.
Bale was enjoying a purple patch when the voting opened and he scored 11 goals in 12 matches between January and March, leading Spurs' challenge for a top four finish.
He is currently recovering from an ankle ligament injury and is doubtful for Spurs' Premier League game against champions Manchester City at White Hart Lane on Sunday.

The Wings' former first-round draft pick in 2010 finished his junior season at the University of Notre Dame last week when the Fighting Irish were eliminated in the CCHA playoffs.
"He's a big, strong power forward and very responsible with the puck, good two-way defensively and still has good offensive skills," Wings assistant general manager Jim Nill said.
In three seasons with the Irish, Sheahan collected 20 goals and 44 assists in 114 collegiate games.
The 6-foot-2, 212-pound native of St. Catharine's, Ontario will finish out the season with the Grand Rapids Griffins, the Wings' top minor-league affiliate in the American Hockey League.
"It's obviously very exciting just to be in the organization and around all of these great players and I'll just have to work my way up, and in a few years maybe get a chance to play in the big league," said Sheahan, who was studying sociology in South Bend. "Leaving Notre Dame was a tough decision. I made a lot of close friends there, met a lot of really nice people, but I think it was time to move on. My focus is on being a hockey player and I think the better atmosphere for that he being here."
Though he averaged 21-points per season at the college level, Sheahan was a dynamite offensive weapon in the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League where he had 49 goals and 85 assists in two seasons.
"That's a little bit with the style of the team that he played on, college hockey is very tight, defensively and that's kind of the style that you see down there," Nill said. "He's had a history of being a scorer ever since he was in Tier II."

However, if Babcock did have a bucket list, playing golf at world-famous Pebble Beach on California's Monterey Peninsula, probably would be on it – but not anymore.
Last Thursday morning, Babcock and assistant coaches Bill Peters and Jeff Blashill played the challenging 7,040-yard golf course.
"I was outstanding as always. I live for golf like you have no idea; no I really don't like golf really," Babcock joked. "I liked going to Pebble Beach, it was a fantastic day and it was a good thing to do on an off-day just to get away from what's going on. In saying that when I went to the San Jose-Nashville game at night I was right back to where I was before I golfed."
The coaching trio traveled to northern California ahead of the team following Wednesday's 4-0 loss at Anaheim in order to play the course, which Golf Digest calls the sixth-best course in the America.
While Babcock's respectable 21 under par round doesn't pale in comparison to rounds shot by Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Tom Kite, Tiger Woods or Graeme McDowell, who all won U.S. Open championships at Pebble Beach, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that the Wings' coach won't soon forget.
"It was a one and only, unless you're going to lend me the cash," said Babcock, of the $530 greens fees.
But besides playing one of the most majestic courses in the world, Babcock was spellbound by the stone chateau – once owned by actor Gene Hackman – for sale near the 10th green.
"I enjoyed it very much, it was an impressive place," Babcock said. "I was very impressed with the house that was for sale for $79 million. I thought that was great."

|Coach Mike Babcock is hopeful that the return of Pavel Datsyuk will help jump-start the Red Wings' offense. (Photo by Getty Images)
"We've talked about these teams that are desperate teams," Wings coach Mike Babcock said. "You know it's interesting, from where I sit as a coach, I don't know who could be more desperate than us. I don't even begin to understand that. If you're playing well and everything is going good, maybe they could be more desperate. But if you're a group like we are right now and you're trying to get your game back, to me, there's no one who should be more desperate than us."
There's no need to look beyond the current health situation to understand the Wings' desperation. Since Feb. 20, when Pavel Datsyuk underwent knee surgery, nine of his teammates have missed time with injury or illness. The latest is forward Johan Franzen (back spasms), who may miss sidelined for Saturday's game against the Sharks at HP Pavilion.
While Datsyuk's return is good news, losing Franzen is more adversity that the Wings don't need as they try to tune-up for a long playoff run this spring. Without Datsyuk, the Wings have posted a 3-7-1 record and the power play has suffered mightily, garnering three goals in the last 44 attempts.
Because injuries have forced the Wings to juggle lines, thus messing with continuity and chemistry, Babcock would like to see his team get back to the basics.
"I went to the (Sharks) game last night and Nashville scored a power-play goal on a simple down and in, threw it in," he said. "San Jose shot the puck, had a man in the middle and tipped and came right to a guy and they shot it right into the net. No different than a lot of the things we're doing, but the puck's not going into the net for us, so that's usually confidence, and we just have to keep plugging away and working. Obviously, Pavel back would really help."
The Sharks, like the other two teams on this California trip, are on the outside looking in at the playoffs. But if the Wings learned anything in back-to-back losses at Los Angeles and Anaheim this week – by a combined 9-2 score – it's that they can't look past the Sharks.
"They're like every team," Babcock said, of the Sharks. "Right now, in their last three games they've worked real hard, they've limited the other team's opportunity, they've gotten the pucks to the net, their power play is relentless on retrieval, they get the puck back. They've got a good team.
"It should be a heck of a hockey game. They've got points in three straight with five (points) out of a possible six points."

She also is seen wearing Colorado Avalanche and New York Rangers jerseys. But the better of the three sweaters, clearly, is the Wings' jersey which also received the most air time in the made-for-cable movie.
Palin, who coined herself as "America's Hockey Mom", was given hockey jerseys as gifts wherever she appeared along the campaign trial as she traveled the U.S. in her bid for the White House as the Republican vice-presidential nominee.
Palin received a Wings jersey before she and GOP presidential nominee Sen. John McCain addressed a rally at Freedom Hill in Sterling Heights, Michigan on Sept. 5, 2008 (see photo).
But it's in the movie "Game Change" that Moore – as Palin – wears a red Wings jersey during a debate rehearsal outside on Sen. MacCain's Arizona estate.
However, the eye-popping moment occurs when the scene switches to a different camera angle which reveals a No. 40 on the back of the jersey.
Now since there's no name on the back of the jersey (at least in the movie), and the six Wings players, including Henrik Zetterberg, to ever represent the number aren't American, it's easy to surmise that the Wings' latest star is the intended honoree, and not Bill Ranford, Mark Major, Jason York, Gord Kruppke or Rogie Vachon, who all wore the number prior to Zetterberg.
"Of course, it's Z, he's a rock star," said goalie Jimmy Howard, one of four Americans on the current Wings' roster.
It's not known if the jersey that Palin received on the sun-shiny afternoon had a number on it, or why the movie's costume directors made the decision to include the number. We may never know the answer, but it sure was fun to see the love for Zetterberg, whether it was intended or not.

|Nicklas Lidstrom hopes to return to the Red Wings' lineup soon and rejoin his defensive partner Ian White. (Photo by Getty Images)
The level of frustration is understandable, especially since Nicklas Lidstrom and injuries are rarely used in the same sentence. But the ankle injury is forcing Lidstrom to go somewhere he's never gone.
"I didn't think it was going to take this long," Lidstrom said of his sore right ankle. "I thought I was going to be back earlier. It's been lingering, it hasn't been getting any better, so it's getting a little bit frustrating."
The seven-time Norris Trophy winner was injured when he was struck by a puck on the outside of the ankle on Feb. 25. The play was innocent enough, when Colorado's Jan Hedja rimmed a center ice shot around the back of the Wings' net. But the puck took an odd bounce, clipping the Wings' star defenseman high on the right boot.
On Monday, Lidstrom tried to skate in full gear for the first time in nearly 2 ½ weeks, but the soreness crept in pretty quickly forcing him off the ice before the Wings' practice got underway at the Toyota Sports Center.
"I tried it a few days ago. It was better today, I could do a few laps but still not where I want it to be to be able to play a game or practice with the guys," he said. "It's day-by-day right now. Just have to wait and see, hopefully it gets better every day."
Wings coach Mike Babcock has already counted Lidstrom out for the next two games – Tuesday at Los Angeles and Wednesday at Anaheim – meaning the 41-year-old will have missed nine games – counting the Montreal game when he had the flu – which, unfortunately, is a single-season personal low for him.
The longest stretch that Lidstrom has missed in any one season is six games after he fell awkwardly on his knee following a body check – oddly enough against the Avalanche – in February 2008. Until this season, six was also the most games he ever missed in a season.
Tuesday's game will be the 42nd game, including Stanley Cup playoffs, which Lidstrom has missed in his 20-season career. And one of those was to serve an NHL suspension for not fulfilling an obligation at the 2009 All-Star Game.
The ankle continues to be problem and sometimes walking has been a source of discomfort. But the biggest obstacle seems to be with the pressure caused by the boot once the laces are tied, Lidstrom said.
However, he is optimistic of a possible return during this trip with an eye on San Jose Saturday in the final game of the Wings' three-game swing through California.
"You want to get a skate or two good skates in before you're able to play again," Lidstrom said. "I'm hoping to play quite a few games before the playoffs. It'll help to get back into game-shape again and in the long run you hope the rest will help, everyone that's out right now, to help us get a long run in the playoffs."

|Jimmy Howard believes that he'll be back sooner from his groin injury than Todd Bertuzzi (R) will be from his groin injury. (Photo by Getty Images)
"Everything's feeling back to normal," said Howard, who was on the ice prior to the team's morning skate at Joe Louis Arena.
Howard hasn't played since leaving last Sunday's game after the first period against Chicago. On Monday, an ultrasound was performed, but tests were negative.
Howard's rosy optimism Friday was in far contrast from his low-key hopes of a quick recovery when he first suffered the injury.
"I think we nipped it in the bud pretty quickly there," Howard said. "We were able to get treatment right away. That's probably saved us some time."
The plan is for Howard to go to Nashville with the Wings and participate in Saturday's morning skate at Bridgestone Arena. If all works out, a return to the lineup could come as early as Tuesday in Los Angeles, Howard said.
"I feel a lot better. It's getting better every single day," he said. "Skated yesterday, skated today, took some shots. Hopefully, tomorrow, I'll share a net. Then practice Monday in L.A.
"We just want to take all the precautions and make sure everything is healed up, with it being so close to playoffs."
Meanwhile, Todd Bertuzzi practiced Friday morning, but based on how he felt, the veteran forward said he may miss more games after Friday's home game with the Los Angeles Kings.
"It's still not as strong as I want it to be," said Bertuzzi, who will miss his second straight game Friday.
Asked if Saturday's game in Nashville was a possibility, Bertuzzi said, "I don't know. I got to see how it is, still got to do some stuff with the trainers. But if that (skate) was any indication then I need a little bit more (time) than that."

Kronwall drew plenty of attention from the Flyers and their fans when midway through the second period he delivered a shoulder check that caught Voracek squarely in the head.
As a dazed Voracek lay on the ice – blood dripping from his mouth and his rigid arms momentarily motionless over his head – the Wells Fargo Center crowd fell quiet. The hit knocked Voracek out of the game and caused tempers to percolate between the teams.
Following Tuesday's game, Kronwall said that he felt the hit was legal like many of his other trademark collisions this season against Edmonton's Ales Hemsky, Vancouver's Ryan Kesler and Flyers' Daniel Briere.
It's hard to imagine Brendan Shanahan, the league's vice president of player safety, levying supplementary discipline against Kronwall since he didn't leave his feet to deliver the hit. And while the head was the first point of contact, Voracek appeared to be slumped forward at the time of the collision.
According to the league official, Voracek's head might have been seen as the principal point of contact, but only because it was the initial point of contact, and not due to Kronwall targeting the head but in the nature that Voracek approached the Wings' defenseman.
There still remain some hits in the league where a player's head – by nature of the way the player receiving the hit – dips, ducks, turns or moves just prior to contact with a legal check.
Kronwall did not leave his feet or lift an elbow, and he was not assessed a penalty for the hit, which according to the league was the correct call on the ice.
There have been no fewer than 17 players on a growing list of Kronwall victims that includes Dany Heatley, Teemu Selanne, Evander Kane, Radek Bonk, Vinny Prospal, Tim Jackman, and Ryan Clowe, who has been crushed on two separate occasions by the 6-foot, 190-pound blue liner.
Then there's the gigantic hit that turned Kronwall's name into a verb when he knocked out Chicago's Martin Havlat during Game 3 of the 2009 Western Conference finals.
On Wednesday, the Philadelphia Daily News called Kronwall's hit on Voracek one of the "most gruesome hits in recent Flyers memory", ranking it with Scott Stevens' colossal brain-jarring shot on Eric Lindros in the 2000 Eastern Conference finals.
It's tough, if not completely off base, to compare Kronwall to Stevens, after all, Kronwall has never been suspended in his 7 ½-plus season career.
Instead of trying to find fault in Kronwall's hits, when will opposing forwards learn to protect themselves and skate with their head up when he's on the ice? Instead of reactively running at Kronwall after he's already blown-up a guy, perhaps forwards need to be smarter about retrieving pucks along the half wall in their own zone.
Kronwall's motive seems to be the same with every big hit: The opposition rims the puck around the boards and a forward tries to gather in the pass for a breakout of the defensive zone. But it's usually when the forward looks down at his feet for the puck, and he's pounded by an anticipating Kronwall who slides down from the point to drop a big, clean hit.

|Ken Daniels called a Wings' game from ice level before he ever did in Philadelphia. But he and analysis Mickey Redmond will finally cross the City of Brotherly Love off the list this Tuesday. (Photo by Dave Reginek)
We're not sure how many other broadcasters – short of Hall of Fame voices Budd Lynch and Bruce Martyn – have called 1,000 Wings' games either on radio or television, but it's probably safe to assume that those gentlemen called games from every arena in the league during their extraordinary careers.
So how is it that in his 13-plus seasons with the organization, Daniels and his broadcast partner, analysis Mickey Redmond, will finally call their first Wings' game together from the City of Brotherly Love on Tuesday night?
"Over the years the networks have grabbed so many games," said Daniels, who can finally claim to have called a Wings' game from all 30 NHL cities. "You have to go back before Versus even, when Fox was doing games, too."
Tuesday will be just the seventh time that the Wings have traveled to Philadelphia for a regular-season game since the 1997-98 season, which also happens to be the year that our friends from the Great White North gave us the silky smooth articulator.
With five of the last six games played on either Saturdays or Sundays, it's certainly easy to see why the broadcast networks would have liked the Wings-Flyers matchup for so many years. It didn't hurt either that Detroit and Philadelphia played for the 1997 Stanley Cup and were widely considered Cup contenders throughout the next decade.
And while Tuesday will be the fourth time that Daniels has ever called a game in Philly – he's broadcast from there for Versus and CBC – the 7 p.m. game will be Redmond's first since his playing days ended more than 37 years ago.
Asked if he thought it peculiar that he's never called a game with his longtime TV partner, Redmond shook his head, and said, "I don't think so because in this world nothing is odd anymore. It's so odd that it's normal with the unbalanced schedule."
Both Daniels and Redmond are especially thankful to be calling this particular Wings-Flyers contest, if for nothing else, the pre-game ceremony which promises to be very emotional.
The Flyers' organization plans to retire Mark Howe's No. 2 before the game, which Fox Sports Detroit will carry in its entirety.
The entire Howe family, including its patriarch, Mr. Hockey, Gordie Howe, will be in attendance at Wells Fargo Center. Also expected to attend, is Maureen McCrimmon, the widow of the late Brad McCrimmon, and the couple's two children.
Mark Howe and McCrimmon were defensive partners and friends during their Philadelphia playing days, and again for a short time in Detroit in the early 90s.
"Just knowing that they were best friends, it's really neat," Daniels said. "I know that Mark wants Maureen to be there for Brad and that's pretty cool."

|Nicklas Lidstrom shortly after he was struck in the ankle by Jan Hedja's dump-in shot in the second period of last Saturday's game. (Photo by Dave Reginek)
But this time as he pressed his heels and the back of his body against the half wall deep in the Red Wings' zone the rim-around shot by Colorado defenseman Jan Hejda took a bad bounce and struck Lidstrom on the outside of the right ankle.
The unfortunate play will cost Lidstrom a few more games as he'll miss Friday night's contest against the Minnesota Wild and Sunday afternoon against the Chicago Blackhawks.
Lidstrom was injured following a neutral zone face-off won by the Avalanche when Hejda blasted a shot from center ice around the left boards and behind the Wings' net with 15:09 left in the second period.
"It just hit me in that right spot, even though the skate is protected it's still going to hurt if you're hit right in that spot," Lidstrom said. "I got hit a few weeks ago on the inside. That was different, not as bad, not as sore as this one is."
Lidstrom only managed to finish Saturday's game because he didn't remove his skates during the intermission, which he's done consistently throughout his 20-season career. Had he taken off his right skate he wouldn't have gotten it back on, Lidstrom said.
But now Lidstrom is becoming a little concerned that the ankle could be more problematic than first thought.
"It's been almost a week now and it's still sore," he said. "I was hoping it was going to be a couple of days and maybe miss one game and then be back at it. It's been lingering longer than I thought.
"I'll take the weekend off and then re-evaluate on Monday and see how it is. It's been longer than I thought it was going to be, so we just have to wait it out see how it feels on Monday."
The 41-year-old legend drove to the Detroit Medical Center, where he had X-rays, immediately after Saturday's game. He had another X-ray taken on Monday, but both reports were negative. Lidstrom did not play in Tuesday's 5-2 win at Columbus.
Lidstrom's diagnosis is a deep bone bruise, which until late this week, prevented him from putting a skate boot on without much pain. The swelling as subsided enough that he can at least put a skate on, but not without a level of discomfort.
"It was just too sore once I tied the skate. It was too sore to push off," Lidstrom said. "When you're skating you kind of push off with your toes and I just couldn't push off. Just from putting the skate on, it's too sore to even push off, so there's no need to go on the ice when I can't push off.
"I'm not going to do anything with the foot for a few days and hopefully it'll settle down and we'll try it out on Monday again."
If Lidstrom does come back for a 21st season next fall, he said that he would entertain thoughts of wearing the clear-plastic guards over his skate boots that more and more defensemen are wearing.
"It's something I'll take into consideration, he said.

|Henrik Zetterberg talks to Herman Liv, the five-year-old son of former Red Wings prospect Stefan Liv, who died in a Russian plane crash last year. (Photo by Bill Roose/Detroit Red Wings)
But in the meantime, he's getting a kick out of having houseguests, including the two young sons of his former Grand Rapids teammate, Stefan Liv, who died last September in the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl plane crash in Russia.
"Now we have some kids in the house it's hard to play around with those guys," said Ericsson, who suffered a fractured left wrist last Saturday. "Carrying them around I usually have one in each arm. Now I can't really do much with either of them."
Acting as a chaperone, Ericsson was in the Wings' locker room Thursday introducing his teammates to five-year-old Herman Liv. His three-year-old brother Harry and their mom, Anna, did not attend Thursday's practice.
"The kids are fine, they're too young, I think, but for Anna her days are up and down, of course. So it's nice for them to think of something else for once."
Ericsson's injury occurred as the Wings were killing off a Colorado power play at the start of the second period. Brad Stuart was attempting to clear the puck when Ericsson stepped into the path of the high-rising puck.
"It was kind of coming at my face and that's the reason I brought up my arm," said Ericsson, who was hit on the outside of the left wrist. "I'm hoping 4-5 weeks, that's what they say. It could go faster it could go slower."
The injury was unavoidable and had nothing to do with the length of his gloves, which clearly didn't protect him Saturday night.
"When you put your hand like this," Ericsson said, holding his hand up to cover his face, "it opens everything up."
The fracture makes it difficult to grip a stick and the rotational movement of Ericsson's forearm is adversely affected.
"They did another x-ray two days again," he said. "There's a break just on the tip on the (out) side almost all the way out there. There were a few cracks too around (the wrist)."
Ericsson hopes to regain skating as soon as he can tie his own skates.
"I'll start skating pretty soon, maybe tomorrow. We'll see," he said. "It's all to get my legs working because I can't do anything with the stick."

Why the huge spread between the bid and ask in the Dec options???
I am curious as to which strike price,and what is the spread?
Anyways, yesterday, after 3 plus years and 450mil invested by ORB and NASA, the Antares launch vehicle stands erect on the newly constructed pad at Wallops Island. Take a look at the pictures on ORB Facebook site. They are impressive.
In 4 to 6 weeks,there will be a hot fire test of the engines and, if all goes well, the long awaited COTs demonstration mission with a mocked up version of the Cyngus capsule will occur about 1 month later. That leaves us somewhere in the early to mid Dec time frame. The contract in Dec expires on Dec 21. The bets are down ...choose but choose wisely. I have long maintained that ORB would be much higher in price if this goes well, but obviously would spike lower if their is a launch failure or even a glitch. IMHO, we are either 11 or 19 around expiration, so I would love to see bid ask on a given strike price.
Sentiment: Buy
Dec strike price 10 bid 3.20 ask 6.50
strike price 12.50 bid .90 ask 4.10
I'm no options expert but a spread of over $3 seems whacked out to me. I don't get it.

Zionists Install Rima Fakih As Miss USA 2010
Everything is proceeding as we have forseen.
Yahoo News:
LAS VEGAS Lebanese immigrant Rima Fakih says it was a certain look from Donald Trump that tipped her off that she had won the 2010 Miss USA title.
The 24-year-old Miss Michigan beat out 50 other women to take the title Sunday night, despite nearly stumbling in her evening gown.
She told reporters later that she believed she had won after glancing at pageant owner Trump as she awaited the results with the first runner-up, Miss Oklahoma USA Morgan Elizabeth Woolard.
Thats the same look that he gives them when he says, Youre hired, on Trumps reality show The Apprentice, she said.
Shes a great girl, said Trump, who owns the pageant with NBC in a joint venture.
A gaffetastic new Miss USA

She nearly tripped over her gown.
She called birth control a controlled substance.
She argued that contraceptives should be covered by health insurers because they are expensive and then said you could get them for free from your OB/GYNs office.
Affirmative Action in Beauty Contests?
by Daniel Pipes
EXCLUSIVE: Miss USA Contestant is Shiite Muslim Hezbollah Supporter, Used Pageant Name to Promote Muslim Female Subjugation; Hezbo Taqiyyah Allows Bikinis?
My intelligence sources laugh at the overwhelming praise and bragging over Fakih on several Lebanese Hezbollah Arabic language blogs. After all, she will be parading around on-stageas all Miss USA contestants doin a bikini, a complete no-no according to Hezbollahs strict Muslim rules about covering women up. But, as we all know, and as one source confirms, Muslims frequently go against Islam in this way for propaganda purposes. Its a form of taqiyyah, the Muslim concept of deceiving infidels.
Hezbollah Muslims believe that Fakih is a tremendous propaganda tool for them. And, in fact, on Sunday Night, some of Dearborns key Hezbollah figures and agents are holding an event to watch the broadcast at Dearbornistans La Pita restaurant, whereseveral witnesses confirmthe restaurant staff frequently sings Hezbollah war songs in the kitchen after hours. The owner of the restaurant is also a Shiite Muslim Hezbollah supporter.
EXCLUSIVE: Meet Miss USA Contestants Hezbollah Martyr Family
Not Guilty- in a young looking Sandra Bullock kind of way
Political correctness rules.
A woman adorned with the cultural spirit and wholesome values of America!
A master of urban ballet!
there's a part of arab-american family values the hezbollah Iranian rev guard and talibans need to see more of
Boy, now there's some talent that even Hezzbollah might admire!
The wink in the Donald's eye to her
even before the Decision,
shows that her past pole dance
had trumped the others.
Oink oink oink
..."this is gonna make Paula Deen drop her biscuits"
When is the Fatwah going to issued on her?
Oh you just know because she's a Muslim or has Muslim ties there's no way she gets the Prejean treatment.
One wonders if Hizbollah will issue a Fatwa since she's an abomination to Islam.
Muhammad, piss be upon him, will not be pleased.
I posted this because with all the mudslinging Prejean took last year, this woman will be completely ignored *because* of her religion. Of course, now that she has another talent, I fully expect her to be invited to the WH for a private meeting with Obama.
We're told Fakih earned some fabulous prizes for the victory -- which included "jewelry, gift cards, adult toys and a stripper pole for home use."
And despite the fact that she kept her clothes on during the pole riding, she still managed to walk away with a bra stuffed with dollar bills!
Same reason that Kobe beef should be covered by foodstamps.
I no longer watch TV but someone posted the Miss OK picture and she was a about 5 times better looking than Allah's pole dancer.
LOL! Islamo sl*t for imploding MI.
I do believe there is a camel in the building.
Ummm... sorry ... not me... producing more Muslim babies is what those women are all about ... doncha know ...
Name I found says "Morgan Woolard".
She probably knows a lot about condoms. Does she also have to shave her mustaches for Allah?
No, that is only when they are seeking photo IDs.
Sexier than Carrie Prejean, but just as much a bubble-head it seems.
Fakih's family is itself a blend of cultures and religions, including both Christians and Muslims. Though Muslim, Fakih's parents celebrate Christmas and have a painting of Jesus in their home.
If you are born into a Muslim family, you are a Muslim ... that's the way it works.
What a pussy.
So I guess now sex industry backrounds don't matter.
I didn't see the show, but comparing the two pictures posted here (and without any bias related to the story)... Miss Oklahoma is waaaaaaaaay better looking.
I missed the show.
Other then spreading her legs what are her talents?
A talent segment that would drive ratings through the roof!
Miss USA 2010 has a better "story", just as Barack Hussein Obama-Soetoro had a better "story" than John McCain, Vietnam P.O.W.
go to your room
Maybe they have her lined up to be one of 72 Virginians to service the shaheed?

Honestly, I was looking forward about the coup: Since 1.6. 2010, there is the Kopp-Verlag online once daily news: read by Eva Hermann - there could be properly nostalgic. And the first few days I was satisfied - really news that are otherwise not find as easily. This is sorely needed in Germany, the most ill-informed country in the Western Hemisphere, where opinion is constantly confused with news, official messages consist of disjointed information snippets and anyone who wants to find out, anyway must consult foreign media.
But on the fourth day of the "bereavement": Eva Hermann announced the Gaza aid flotilla was led by a boat of a Turkish "terrorist organization", the "IHH". This was the "confirmed Dutch secret service." "Renowned Danish Institute for International Studies" and the
I looked again where this "message" because came and met with Kopp author UDO ULFKOTTE, who is known that he would like and often etched against Islam, but also opponents must admit again and again that his statements usually well documented are.
First, it is surprising that Ulfkotte has no word of sympathy for the oppressed population of the blockaded Gaza Strip. The humanitarian situation there is intolerable that illegal Israeli blockade, about one is international in complete agreement. Gift!
So now lay actually once again a self-defense situation, which is why the fleet stopped and a few passengers - unfortunately, unfortunately, - had to be shot?
Ulfkotte leads for alleged terrorist background of the Turkish aid organization the "prestigious" Danish Institute at. Unfortunately, you can, however, whose publications you look at yourself, discover independence of nothing, why the opinion of the Institute also should not be treated as "news." Rather, the Copenhagen-tank studies appear as an anachronistic hawkish front organization of the Bush era.
From the spring of Studieninstitus so flowing precious titles like "Terrorism and weapons of mass destruction: in response to a challenge" - just as it would the lies is not given in advance of the Iraq war or "Terroismus and the return of just war: American order as . World Order "(Terrorism and The Return of Just was: American order as World Order). Stark!
So Ulfkotte takes a "study" of this institute as a message: A certain Evan F. Kohlmann is it to conclude that about 1/3 of all charitable non-governmental organizations of the Muslim world financing terror. Kohlmanns study goes right at the start great brazen the fact that terrorism against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan was raised by the US intelligence agencies from the baptism, which the then US Secretary of State Brzezinski had also admitted quite candidly.
Kohlmann, a "terrorism expert" to might as well "intelligence expert" call, because that is his homeland and origin. He works by his own admission with intelligence together, he teaches on this subject, in particular with the FBI, the NSC (National Security Council), the Department of Homeland Security, etc.
"Studies" from this corner should probably be taken with utmost caution and better disinfected once and touched with tweezers, but by no means be sold prematurely as "news".
In Turkey we have, incidentally, a different version of it, was why the Ulfkotte of a "terrorist group" scolded NGO "IHH" once the Turkish government not good books: Because of their support of the Kurds. Since the official Turkey knows well known not fun.
The Danish "Studieninstitut" perpetuates course the myth of Bin Laden in connection with 9/11 and is thus not on the current state of knowledge on this subject. Looking at the current list of publications on, one might suspect, the "renowned" Institute Suffer mythomania, so a unrettbaren, manic compulsion to invent tall tales and spin: "In the name of God. US war against terrorism. The story of the Afghan veterans: as the masterminds behind 9/11. "
In the (English) public is against it long discussed openly, that the Taliban are US-financed and also discusses the motives for it. This topic brought the British Guardian on 25.5.2010. (Those who wish to learn more, this can link click on the topic).
Scared 'I have but myself (when I realized that it was serious), I. New Today Ulfkotte of the raid on the Gaza aid flotilla las Terrorist activists have spent enter ligand soldiers below deck, tortured them and broken their bones; and then there is this set "soundtrack": The activists had called: "Jews back to Auschwitz". My God!
I come across another interesting Kopp video: "Child abuse in Afghanistan". Therein Ulfkotte comes also to speak. However, it will work more subtle issue is a film documentary of the Afghan journalist Najibullah Quraishi. He had managed to interfere in Afghanistan among the people who operate and organize "bacha bazi"; ie men are looking underage, pretty boys, talk them from impoverished parents and train them to dancing prostitutes. The documentary was in ABC1 under the title "The Warlords' tune. The dancing boys of Aghanistan "broadcast.
Ulfkotte reports now of this documentary and the phenomenon of "bacha bazi" as a widespread and widely accepted practice. As I said, it comes to more subtle with this video. It is about the slight shift of accents. First of all, the war would have to be denounced, he is the first cause of poverty, destruction and violence that especially strikes children. But the war in Afghanistan, neither the Muslim world itself, nor Islam, nor the Afghans responsibility. The trend is even more annoying than a month since abuse scandal after another, the "clean" Western, Christian dominated world shakes; without Islam and atavistic states our society has tolerated that.
Questionable but it is when Ulfkotte (the first sentence of the documentary of Najibullah Quraishi here Trailer not) mentioned, which reads: "In a country [Afghanistan], which was verwüstetet of war for decades, has been secretly revived a tradition again, which had been banned by the Taliban! "
Yes, this decisive sentence does not fit the Islam-critical image: The "radical Islamic" Taliban had banned the repulsive pedophile sex and dance parties. And something else had the Taliban banned and had been for his time praised even by the US government: the opium cultivation. But that was before NATO's war against Afghanistan ...
I will visit the KOPP-news and background information likely to continue - if only because KOPP with the contribution of Gerhard Wisneswki to attack on the Free Gaza Hifstransport brings an entirely contrary opinion. A true balancing act!

Quick GuideFirst Aid: 8 Essential First Aid Items for Car or Purse
First Aid
First aid is the assistance given to an injured or sick person in need of urgent medical assistance. First aid applies to a broad range of medical situations and consists both of specific knowledge and skills (for example, what to do for each type of injury or illness) and the ability to assess a situation and make appropriate decisions (such as when to call for emergency medical assistance).
Preparedness is a key element of first aid. While every home, auto, and boat should be equipped with a basic emergency kit that includes first aid supplies and a first aid manual, special circumstances may necessitate more advanced or specific degrees of preparation for an emergency. For example, residents of certain geographic areas where natural disasters (such as hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, floods, landslides, or tsunamis) may occur should prepare for emergencies by assembling disaster preparedness kits such as earthquake kits, flood kits, andevacuation kits.
Travelers should also prepare to administer first aid in the region they plan to visit. In many developed countries, this may amount to packing a standard first aid kit and manual with your belongings. Medicines to prevent motion sickness and advanced awareness about the management of traveler's diarrhea are also helpful to travelers. In the developing world or in remote regions, a travel medicine kit should include medicines and supplies that may not be available for purchase as well as any specific products (such as insect repellant to prevent mosquito and tick bites) needed for your destination. It's also important for travelers in foreign countries to learn how to access emergency services by telephone.
Being prepared to administer effective first aid can also involve learning specific skills such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or abdominal thrusts to assist choking victims. First aid may be required for medical emergencies such as heart attack, stroke, or seizures as well as for minor medical conditions like nosebleed and mild allergic reactions. Environmental injuries (sunburn, poison ivy, heat exhaustion, frostbite, bee or insect stings) and traumatic injuries (strains, sprains, burns, puncture wounds, and cuts as well as more severe internal injuries) are other situations where first aid skills can be invaluable.
Regardless of your level of skill or degree of first aid training, if you find yourself in a true medical emergency, always call 911 for emergency medical assistance immediately. Likewise, if you are involved in any medical situation that is beyond your personal abilities to provide first aid, you should never hesitate to summon emergency medical assistance right away.

Marcus Katz and Tali Goodwin always have something interesting to share. Their ideas range from connections based on intense research and solid scholarship to innovative, modern techniques. They also have a way of asking interesting questions. In the excerpt below, from Tarot Face to Face, they ask questions about questions. Asking Questions Out Loud—Yes or No? Whilst some readers have told us they do not need to actually hear the client's questions, they are somewhat struck when we ask them how they know that they are not performing a reading for a question that is against their own ethics, e.g., "Should my four-year-old brother stop taking his medication?"

The Daily Mail reports that the former Barcelona boss - who is currently enjoying a sabbatical year in New York with his family - has told his family and friends that he "sees his future at Stamford Bridge".
Guardiola, who won three league titles and two Champions League crowns with Barca, reportedly rejected the job at the end of last season after leaving the Catalan giants, and Roberto di Matteo was installed as permanent boss on a two-year deal.
But it seems the Italian may not get a chance to see out that contract as the most in-demand manager in the game hovers behind him; " Guardiola could have the pick of Europe's top clubs but has made it known to his close circle of advisers that Chelsea is his preferred choice," the paper reports.
Several papers lead with Roberto Mancini's admission that his team are simply not good enough to win the Champions League yet.
"I don't think we're ready to win the Champions League," he says in the Times. "If we say we're ready to win it we're not honest... Chelsea tried for 10 years to win it. They were probably the best team in Europe for ten years and they won it probably when they didn't deserve to."
In the day's transfer news, the Daily Mirror claims that Fulham and Southampton are to fight it out for the £2 million signature of Millwall's midfield star Liam Trotter. The same paper also reports that Stoke City striker Cameron Jerome is set to go out on loan to Leeds.
The Sun claims that William Gallas will be made to sweat over a new contract at Spurs, and that Newcastle have failed in their attempts to line up a deal for River Plate defender German Pezella.
And finally, the sick chants directed at Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger on Saturday earn a lengthy report in the Daily Mail beneath the headline, "Why does he have to put up with such vile abuse?"
Reporter Neil Ashton suggests that Alex Ferguson felt moved to apologise personally to Wenger after Red Devils fans taunted the Gunners boss ("Are you Savile in disguise?" was apparently the main chant at Old Trafford).
Martin Keown writes about the "absurd" chants, saying that when targeted by opposing fans "your blood is boiling, you are seething" and calling for the FA to act, "even if it means banning fans en masse."

They were to be there by 6 am the morning of the move. They didn't get there until the late afternoon. The 'movers' that came were anything but professional. They were all gang members. They had the jail tats to prove it. We were already having trouble with the gang there and the movers were calling that gang to tell them what we had and what was going on!
The 'movers' packed 90% of our things yet they labeled everything 'owner packed'. I told them that the boxes had fragile items inside...40 year old china with nothing wrong with it. They were dropping them onto the dollies from 6 ft up and then standing at the back of the truck and dropping them off onto the ground because they were packing the truck wrong.
When they finally finished packing the truck, the next evening, they raised our bill to $28000. We had to get a loan to move. They were going to take or things. There was nothing that we could do.
When it came time to sign the papers, they said nothing about other insurance that was available and I didn't get to see what was written on the forms. Just the signature lines.
Everything was very stressful, our lives being threatened and police watching our house to try to keep us safe until we could leave and they took advantage of it.
When we finally got our items, EVERYTHING was smashed and broken. All of our furniture has scratches and gouges in it. All of our boxes were squashed. Our safe was scratched over all of the surfaces. We are still looking for items.
Even when the driver opened the truck to unload, he saw the damaged and signed the paper for us stating that the movers damaged everything due to the way that they loaded the truck.
We have been fighting with their "insurance" company since August. We finally heard from them today, the end of February. They are willing to settle for $390 on 48000 pounds of furniture and boxes!
Our homeowners insurance won't cover it. So now we have nothing but damaged property and a huge loan to pay.
Not sure what to do now. Anyone having any luck getting their money back from these ripoffs?

A new clue in the mysterious disappearance of an eastern Kentucky man more than two months ago.
The family of Sampie Sparkman says his credit card was used weeks after he vanished!
Nancy Sparkman says even though her father was last seen May 15th, she's not giving up on her efforts to find him, especially after a recent call from her father's credit card company.
Nancy Sparkman is still counting the days.
It has been 11 weeks since her father, 63 year old Sampie Sparkman, went missing.
He left his home in Floyd County to meet her at a Somerset Bowling Alley and never showed up.
Surveillance video at a Chevron gas station in London shows a man matching Sparkman's
description entering the store, going up to the cash register to pay for gas and turning around and leaving.
It was the latest clue to his whereabouts, until now.
"If the information's correct and stuff it gives us a glimpse of hope of maybe finding him or finding some information of where he may be," Sparkman said.
Sparkman says she came home last Thursday to find a message on her answering machine from her father's credit card company.
"He said that there was a late fee charge on the 3rd and that a purchase was made June 6th," Sparkman said.
That's nearly 3 weeks after he disappeared.
She says it's another clue that leads her to believe the search must go on.
"We miss him and we want him to come home but until then, she says she won't stop counting the days,' Sparkman said.
Sparkman says her father was driving a black, Chevy S-10 pickup with a license plate of 897-HRG.
If you have any information, you should call state police.

I called in to CANCEL my 2 days trial and the first time they said they would cancel it. Two days passed, they didn't cancel it and they immediately charged me $9.95. I called in again and asked why would they charged me when I asked to cancel my membership. Their respond was they had no reference that I called. Again, I asked to cancel my membership and they said they would do this in 72 hours. 7 DAYS gone by and my membership was still active. I believed this company is a SCAM. Stay away from this company. Cancelling membership was extremely difficult let alone buying products from this company. How can you trust their business ethic when they won't let you cancel membership? Avoid being scam into 2 days trials. They will not let you cancel and immediately charge you a fee.

Thanks for that!
If teachers are interested in how words are associated with other words (and if anyone who is interested wants to see how this is related to the meaning of the words): as soon as the network takes enough shape, we will provide a tool on the site in which you can type in a word and you can see the frequencies of the different responses. However, for the moment we have had 3000 participants, which is not enough yet. We could start with that application if we have about 10.000 visitors.

With Barons we get more card-game goodness from the same company that brought us Glory to Rome. I wouldn't quite call it a "new" Glory to Rome, even though it's from the same publisher, because it's lighter in feel, and the mechanics are quite different from both games. But cards still have multiple uses, and when played as buildings they will give you ongoing abilities and benefits. And it's definitely still a strategy card game, which is why the publisher is marketing it as part of their "Extreme Strategy" rather than their "Family" series.
The basic concept is that players are building up their personal barony by playing lands (which allow you to draw new cards by taxation) and buildings (which have special abilities), and there's interaction with other baronies by using knights. Cards are used as lands/buildings/actions/knights, but are also used as `money' (by discarding) in order to `pay' for the cards that are put into play.
There are four different coloured decks that are shared by the players, and each deck has unique cards with its own feel. There are certainly different strategies to explore by building around certain cards or colours. Barons also has the advantage of scaling well as a two-player game, and plays quite quickly - so you can play a couple of games back-to-back. I've played it many times, and find that many of the nuances only become apparent after multiple plays - I believe it's been somewhat unfairly the recipient of criticism from those who have judged it too harshly after just one or two plays, without taking the time to explore it more fully. So bear in mind: 1. don't expect it to be like Glory to Rome (it's lighter, and different); 2. don't judge it too quickly after just one or two plays (there's more strategy and tactics going on than meets the eye!)
