Bad job by me yesterday in my post on the Rangers cap situation not properly pointing out how the new CBA's "Redden Rule," which is the formula used to figure out the proper cap hit for those one-way and two-way NHL contracts buried in the AHL, will affect the Blueshirts. So here it is courtesy of Cap Geek (H/T to reader Andy E.)…
BURIED CONTRACTS (Wade Redden Rule)
Money paid to players outside of the NHL counts against the cap.
A one-way contract counts against the cap as follows:
cap hit – [ minimum salary + $375,000 ]
Example: If Wade Redden plays in the minors in 2012-13, he counts as follows.
A two-way contract counts as follows:
minor-league salary – [ minimum salary + $375,000 ]
Example: Player A's two-way contract pays $3M/$1M in 2012-13 and counts as follows in the minors.
Using this formula, if demoted, Arron Asham's cap hit would be $75,000 on a $1M per salary, while Darroll Powe's is just over $91,000 on a $1.066M per. So the Rangers would free up $1.9 million by sending those two to Hartford.
They'll also be losing most of the Justin Faulk (RFA) or Aaron Johnson ($600,000) cap hit when one of them is demoted during camp.
Meaning the real cap number is closer to $13M available than the $11.1M I posted yesterday.
…so this is what happens when I don't do my homework and just go with what Larry Brooks is reporting. Hey, it's the summer, who wants to do homework. Seriously, my bad.
…even with the additional cap space it could still be tight depending on the demands of the five RFAs, but I do feel all five want to remain in a Blueshirt and would be willing to do what it takes to make it happen.
…i also don't think this changes the fact that the Rangers are likely to make a trade. And as Neill pointed out in the comments section yesterday, with Dom Moore on board, the most likely candidate is Brian Boyle. Possible reunion with Torts?
Speaking of McDonagh…
Negotiations between #NYR and RFA D Ryan McDonagh said to be moving in the right direction but no deal just yet.
— Andrew Gross (@AGrossRecord) July 6, 2013
Brett Cyrgalis at the New York Post says that it is believed McDonagh is looking for a deal between four and six years at around $5 million per.
Wednesday is the deadline for McDonagh to file for salary arbitration, so there is still time for another club to send him an offer sheet
…i love McDonagh just as much as anyone, but $5 million seems a bit high to me. I was thinking closer to $4 million.

A wicked witch, a humpback and a New Orleans epidemic -- all of them are coming to the Prytania in the next few weeks, as part of ithe local neighborhood theater's ongoing Classic Movie Series.
The return of 1939's "The Wizard of Oz" -- which has packed crowds in during earlier screenings in the series -- gets things started this weekend. But it's two newcomers to the series that have me most excited: Elia Kazan's locally shot 1950 thriller "Panic in the Streets," and the 1963 all-star comedy classic "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World."
Below is the six-week schedule of this latest installment in the series. All movies start at noon on Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday, and all tickets are $5.50.
- "The Wizard of Oz" (1939), starring Judy Garland, screens Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday.
- "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" (1956), starring Anthony Quinn, Sept. 4, 5 and 8.
- "Panic in the Streets" (1950), starring Richard Widmark, Sept. 11, 12 and 15
- "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," starring Dick Van Dyke, Sept 18, 19 and 22.
- "The Man Who Knew Too Much," directed by Alfred Hitchcock, Sept. 25, 26 and 29.
- "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" (1963), starring pretty much everybody in Hollywood, Oct. 2, 3 and 6.
All films will be introduced by theater owner Rene Brunet and will be followed by an informal discussion - with free coffee and snacks - in the lobby. For details, visit the Prytania Theatre web site.

There seemed to be a watery theme to last weekend...Firstly, we had flood warnings and high tides along the Essex coast. While Working on wallasea island one forgets that it's an island sometimes, as the causeway is not covered regularly. Then out of the blue, along comes a high tide to remind you Mother Nature is still in charge!I was planning to nip off to a meeting in Benfleet, mid morning on Friday, when I heard the tide was lapping at the edge of the road over the causeway. A quick check of the tide timetable told me that I wasn't going to make that meeting on time! However, I was in the fortunate position of being able to postpone. Others stuck on either side of the causeway had their days disrupted - not least the poor driver who tried to make a run for it, but ended up stuck in a ditch with the tide rising round him, having left the road.Our managed realignment of the coast round Wallasea is a response to the threat of rising sea levels, increased storminess and climate change. Once in place, our intertidal habitat will provide a buffer zone for tidal surges and reduce the risks of flooding in years to come.
From too much water on friday, it was water shortages and the water conservation message we received on Sunday. Our volunteer team, the WalVols, had been working hard with us all summer, so by way of a small thank you, we took them to The London Wetlands Centre which was created on the site of a Thames Water reservoir. Apart from my first bittern, fifty bird species were spotted by the birders in the group, while the rest of us enjoyed a wander round the wetland paths,hides and educational exhibits. This south west central London nature reserve is only a couple of hours from Wallasea,yet is a different world! We had a lovely day, but I think we were all glad to return to the peace of our wild coast at the end of the day.

The late Marvin E. Schur would have turned 94 next Thursday. Those who've heard the story of the Bay City man's tragic freezing death say they won't let the day pass without remembering the World War II veteran who served his country with honor.
A review of Schur's military paperwork, specifically his DD-214 discharge record, reveals Schur was highly decorated for his service. He was a surgical technician who served in New Guinea, an island in the South Pacific Ocean off the northern coast of Australia, and Luzon, an island in the Philippines where Allied forces engaged the Japanese in a fierce land battle in 1945.
"Mr. Schur's DD-214 reveals his proud and honorable service to our country," says John Deppen, a military history buff in Pennsylvania who has closely followed Schur's story and even mass-produced a set of bumper stickers that read, "Marvin E. Schur - Never Again."
"This one document helps those of us who never knew Mr. Schur to know a significant part of his history," Deppen said.
Schur froze to death inside his home in January after Bay City Electric Light & Power limited the flow of electricity to his house because of unpaid bills. His death made national news and elicited outrage and sympathy from all across the country. It also has become the subject of college classroom studies and spurred new legislation regarding utility shutoffs in Michigan.
Military records show Schur received several awards for serving his country, including the Asiatic-Pacific Theater Ribbon with two bronze battle stars, Philippine Liberation Ribbon with one bronze battle star, American Theater Ribbon, American Defense Service Ribbon, Good Conduct Medal, World War II Victory Medal, one Service Stripe or "hash mark," four Overseas Service Bars and an Honorable Service Lapel Button.
Relatives have told The Times that Schur earned a Purple Heart, but his DD-214 does not reflect that. Deppen said that doesn't mean Schur didn't receive the award; sometimes discharge papers do not list a wound date or a Purple Heart.
Deppen said he tried getting more answers, but when he contacted the National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis, he was told documents of Schur's military history are believed to have been destroyed in a fire.
The records that do exist show the signature and fingerprint of a 5-foot-10-inch, blue-eyed, brown-haired precision tool grinder from Saginaw who entered into active service on March 6, 1941. Schur clocked two years, five months and 16 days of continental service, and two years, three months, and eight days of foreign service, the record shows.
Deppen says he has received requests from all parts of the country for his bumper stickers in honor of Schur, and he's sent some to more than two dozen communities in Michigan. The Patriot Guard Riders, a group of motorcycle-riding veterans, also have made up similar stickers for their helmets.
John Smeekens of Clinton Township recently ordered 250 bumper stickers in hopes of making others aware of Schur and his story. He said he will be passing them out at a state seminar in Bay City in June for the Michigan Postal Workers Union.

Blackwell takes comfort from fine finish
Want to know which players have gone where? Click here for all the comings and goings on the domestic scene
Ian Blackwell is understandably disappointed to have been forced into retirement from a sport "he loves very dearly", yet can reflect on a fitting ending to his distinguished career.
The 34-year-old, one of the finest all-rounders in the recent history of the county game, announced last week that his playing days had come to an end due to chronic shoulder injuries.
Yet he bowed out on a high having unexpectedly played a part in Warwickshire's LV= County Championship triumph last season following a loan move from Durham towards the end of the campaign.
That switch also ensured what proved his ultimate appearance came at Lord's in the Clydesdale Bank 40 final.
Warwickshire suffered defeat that day, missing out on a double as Hampshire completed their sweep of domestic limited-overs titles in 2012, yet that has not tainted the memory for Blackwell.
"It (having to retire) is one of those things, but I can obviously look back and say my last game was at Lord's. Any trip there is a special day, whether you win or lose," he told ecb.co.uk. "And I was part of a championship-winning team with Warwickshire for the last month of the season.
"I don't think any cricketer wants to end their career when it is not on their terms and I am no different to anyone else, so there is obviously a lot of disappointment there.
"But, on the same token, I think my body was telling me the time was right. It's one of those things; I've had a good run at it having played for 16 to 17 years.
"That is a long time in a sport that I have loved very dearly and obviously had some very good times in."
When asked about the nature of his career-ending problem, Blackwell added: "It's quite well-documented that I've had three operations now on my left shoulder, in 2006, 2009 and then in November just gone. The findings from the third operation were pretty catastrophic.
"I have a rotator cuff tear, there was some supraspinatus damage, major cartilage damage and early signs of arthritis. The surgeon thought he could repair it, but probably not to the level of playing professional cricket again.
"I obviously tried to be sensible about it, thinking about life after cricket and looking after my children; I wanted some sort of quality of life after cricket."
Last year's triumph with Warwickshire earned Blackwell a second County Championship winners medal after he played an integral role in Durham's successful title defence in 2009.
Having previously represented Derbyshire and Somerset, he said: "I have been fortunate in the fact I was able to choose which sides to play for because I was a left-arm spinning all-rounder which were like golddust; every county wanted one.
"I look back with some fond memories and I am very proud at what I have achieved."
Unlike many sportsmen who retire, Blackwell is fortunate to have already planned for life beyond playing. He is set to stand as an umpire in second XI games this year after starting out in league fixtures.
"That (staying in cricket) was one of my main things; I am not really qualified to do anything else, other than work in Sainsbury's maybe," he joked.
"I wanted to stay in cricket and thought umpiring would be something that would appeal; it keeps you at the forefront, you get the best view in the house and and hopefully get to see some good innings and spells by bowlers."

Just two weeks after Dunkin' Brands (NASDAQ: DNKN ) announced its intention to begin building Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in California, the company revealed today its latest expansion plan: Dunkin' is goin' to Vietnam.
The company already has a presence in the country, having begun building Baskin-Robbins locations (13 at last count) in Vietnam in Jan. 2012. Now, citing its "proven track record of success in the local restaurant industry," Dunkin' says it has signed a franchise agreement with Vietnam Food and Beverage Co. Ltd. (VFB), to help it develop the Dunkin' Donuts brand as well.
Over the next several years, VFB will help Dunkin' set up Dunkin' Donuts restaurants "across the country," beginning in Ho Chi Minh City. In addition to its traditional coffee and donuts offerings, Dunkin' notes that its restaurants in Vietnam will also offer "regional menu items to cater to local Vietnamese tastes."
Investors aren't finding Dunkin' shares particularly tasty today, however. Dunkin' is currently following the market down, off 0.3% at $35.87.

This photo taken Aug. 11, 2013 shows Kimberly C. Ellis talking about Black Twitter at Freedom Corner in the Hill District of Pittsburgh. Black Twitter is a small but growing corner of the social media giant where an unabashedly black spin on life gets served up 140 characters at a time. Black Twitter holds court on pretty much everything from President Barack Obama to the latest TV reality show antics. But don't get it twisted. Black Twitter can turn activist quickly.

Black Twitter growing into online force
When a U.S. jury convicted Michael Dunn of attempted murder, but not actual murder, in the shooting death of a black teenager, the hashtag #dangerousblackchildren popped up on Twitter. Users posted photos of black babies and toddlers, making fun of the fear that Dunn testified he felt before opening fire on a carful of teens at a convenience store.

Woman jailed on drug chargeFebruary 18,2013Police said a Rutland woman wanted for failing to appear at her arraignment for crack cocaine possession was in possession of crack cocaine during a traffic stop Friday night.
Shortly before midnight, police stopped Chantelle M. Dewey, 33, on Curtis Avenue after recognizing her and knowing she had an active arrest warrant for not showing up Feb. 11 in Rutland criminal court to answer charges of possessing crack cocaine, narcotics and marijuana, stemming from an incident Dec. 13.
After executing a search warrant on Deweys vehicle Saturday, police allegedly found 5 grams of crack cocaine. Sunday, police located Dewey on State Street and charged her with felony possession of crack cocaine. Police also charged Dewey with violating the conditions of her release on prior charges of unlawful mischief and disorderly conduct.
Dewey was held in Rutland jail on $25,000 bail and is scheduled for arraignment Tuesday in Rutland criminal court.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER After sitting on the Vermont Supreme Court for nearly 30 years, Justice John Dooley...

We can thank Toyota for giving the PR community so many things to write and talk about since it announced the recall of millions of its cars due to faulty accelerators. The general consensus is that Toyota is going through a major crisis and only time will tell if it can get its once-sterling reputation back. Meanwhile, over on Capitol Hill, we have some very poor media training going on, care of Ray LaHood, transportation secretary. During a Congressional panel yesterday to discuss the recalls, LaHood mouthed 3 words that he instantly regretted. When asked what Toyota owners affected by the recall should do, he said: "if anybody owns one of these vehicles, stop driving it." So, "stop driving it" were the three words he instantly apologized for saying out loud, calling it a "misstatement." While his communications and other aides should have prepped him better for the Q&A portion, it is disappointing that a senior official would so hastily make such as statement. Clearly that is what he thinks ("stop driving it") and soon enough he realized that his public statements and private sentiments clashed. In a way, it is refreshing when a politician or any public figure says exactly what s/he feels. But it is a poor reflection on the person and his/her staff when such statements wreak havoc on an already escalating crisis in which millions of Toyota owners have already stopped driving their vehicles — except to get those cars to the repair shop. The Toyota crisis is an interesting case study in media training, reputation management and back-tracking.

Aviva Drescher held an engagement party for her 76-year-old father, George, at, appropriately enough, the Museum of Sex, after he proposed to his 25-year-old girlfriend, Cody, in last week's episode.
"The Museum of Sex is an obvious choice for my father's engagement party," joked Drescher, before turning serious. "I believe that Cody and my father are truly in love, and while it may be unconventional, I support my father."
But things turned dysfunctional quickly.
"I'm having a conversation, and all of a sudden I realized there was a hand on my breast," said Kristen Taekman. "It was George's."
But it was Ramona Singer's mouth that caused the most problems.
Singer insinuated Cody was marrying for money, before bringing up her deceased parents after being warned not to do so, causing the bride-to-be to cry.
"How dare she insult her?" George raged. "Ramona is a bitch, and you know what happens to bitches? They get f–––ed by dogs."
Singer visited Drescher, offering an apology for ruining the party, but it didn't last long after Singer told George she wouldn't want her daughter "to be prey to an older man."
Continued Singer: "If you really loved her, you would let her go."
"I do not control another human being," said George.
"God forbid [my daughter meets] some lecherous man like you," said Singer. "Should we just give you a newborn to do?"
"She's a racist. She doesn't like black people," ranted George.
But all bets were truly off in Saratoga, where the hats were big, the horses were fast, but Sonja Morgan's drinking was bigger and faster.
"I don't know anything about betting on horses, but I do know the one sure bet today is that Sonja's getting wasted," said Taekman. "It's 10 a.m. and Sonja's drinking hard liquor. What could go wrong?"
"I'm a Saratoga veteran," said Morgan. "I've been betting on horses since I was 17."
But perhaps not winning.
After all the wives sans Morgan won over $3,000 on a bet, Morgan disappeared, and the ladies left without her.
"They always do this. Bitches!" Morgan ranted, returning home "blotto." "After winning all this money, they ditch me?"
"Who doesn't drink in Saratoga?" she continued, walking out on the wives with her packed bags. "I'm outta here. I'm going straight to the Hamptons."

Here's a guy who loves his momma.
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's mother is out of the hospital, just over a week after being hit by an alleged drunk driver in a head-on collision.
Johnson, 42, posted an Instagram Tuesday of his mom, Ata Johnson, leaving the hospital in a wheelchair. He also added the caption, "Takin' mama home."
In the photo, his mother is wearing a cast on her left arm, but both she and her son have huge smiles. "Banged up, but she's a tough one and will make a full recovery," he wrote. "Grateful to see her smile. And thank you guys for all the prayers, love and well wishes."
Ata Johnson and Savelina "Lina" Fanene – The Rock's cousin – were both hospitalized after the accident, which reportedly occurred in Clermont, Florida, on Aug. 2.
Johnson used the same three hashtags that he included Sunday when he posted a photo of his mother's smashed car: #BearHugsandGratitude, #ChoicesMatter and #100PercentPreventable. Tuesday, though, he added one more: #DontDrinkandDrive.

The 2014 series opened June 11. Each Verandah Concert begins at 6:45 p.m. with an old-fashioned ice cream social. Attendees can grab a cup of hand-dipped Ohio-made Tofts ice cream as they relax in lawn chairs on the spacious lawn in front of the home of 19th U.S. President Rutherford B. Hayes.
The verandah of the elegant 31-room house serves as the stage for the concerts. Musical performances begin at 7 p.m. and last an hour. Admission is FREE thanks to sponsorship from Fremont Federal Credit Union.
The final concert in the 2014 season is August 20 featuring music by the North Coast Big Band. Attendees are reminded to bring their own seats and come prepared for the weather. In the event of thunderstorms, the event will be canceled.

Baubles, Bangles, Babs
Barbra Streisand would like to offer you a very nice piece of jewelry, all in the name of charity
Some prefer Saturday morning garage sales for the disposal of once-cherished possessions. Others choose eBay, the internet trading post. And then there's Barbra Streisand. Faced with an abundance of stuff—furniture, jewelry, vintage clothing—Streisand contacted Christie's, the famed auction house, with a list of items ready to sell. The auction house was only too happy to oblige. "This woman has a real eye and great taste," says a Christie's spokeswoman, Vredy Lytsman. "She takes the same intense approach in collecting as she does when she directs a movie or records a record. She's a collector."
Included in Streisand's collection are platinum, gold and diamond necklaces, bracelets, wristwatches and rings dating from 1860 that are estimated to bring in between $1,000 and $10,000 apiece. They will be on display at Christie's Los Angeles showroom from Sept. 15 to 19 and go on sale Sept. 29. Her furniture and decorative arts, still being cataloged, will be auctioned at Christie's New York City showrooms Nov. 29. More vintage jewelry and clothing go on the block in New York Dec. 2. Public viewing for these subsequent sales will be in November, but the specific dates have not been set.
The proceeds—Christie's raised more than $6 million for Streisand the last time she did something like this, in 1994—will go to the entertainer's Streisand Foundation, a philanthropic organization that benefits the environment, civil rights, disadvantaged children and other causes. "Because the money will go to charity, we hope to fetch as much as possible," says Lytsman.
Lytsman acknowledges that Streisand's name will bring in many of those inspecting the merchandise. "But more than that, we expect people who like jewelry and know jewelry," Lytsman says. "She's got some really great stuff. It is a celebrity sale, but on the other hand, it is very different because we are not selling her castoffs or anything like that."
Mick's Holiday on Ice
For the discerning traveler who wants more than just another frolic in the sun, Iceland offers a lot—if you like sea birds, hot springs and geysers. Not to mention the occasional chance of spotting an authentic rock and roll geezer. For some reason, celebs are beginning to flock to this North Atlantic island. Does this mean that Iceland, just below the Arctic Circle, is suddenly in danger of becoming the hot new place? Well, maybe not hot, but at least temperate.
Earlier this month, Mick Jagger, 56, on a three-day trip with friends to hike, bike and bird watch, was seen pedaling a bicycle along the streets of tiny Isafjördur, a remote hamlet on the island's western coast. The locals respected his privacy, says police Chief Olafur Helgi Kjartansson. While at the Maritime Museum in town, Jagger asked the caretaker so many questions about the country's geothermal waters and such that the caretaker inquired, "Are you a geologist?" To which Jagger replied, "No, just interested."
So are other celebs. Jerry Seinfeld vacationed there a few years ago. Kevin Costner recently stayed in Reykjavik, the capital, while on vacation, and Damon Albarn, lead singer of the British rock band Blur, bought a share in a bar there and reportedly applied for dual citizenship. Maybe now's the time to go, before natives chill to the idea of too many visitors.
A Little Bit of Heart and Soul
"It's time to celebrate the women...because we are beautiful," said singer Eve—just Eve—presenting at the 5th annual Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards Sept. 3 in Santa Monica. Music had much to do with the evening, of course, since Soul Train is one of the longest running dance shows on TV. And so they honored music—hip hop, rap and R&B—and the musicians who make it. TLC received the Aretha Franklin Entertainer of the Year award; Lauryn Hill, who missed the ceremony (she was on tour), won three awards anyway. Girl groups such as 702, Divine and Xscape seemed to enjoy the company as much as the entertainment, hugging old friends and even singing songs a cappella in the ladies room. It was an evening for memories too. TLC's Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes, who brought along her own videocam to tape the backstage proceedings, reminisced about watching Soul Train as a girl and seeing the Jackson 5 "with those bouncing Afros." Producer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds talked of the Soul Train dance line. And Natalie Cole, winner of the Lena Home Award for Career Achievement, recalled the first time she performed on the show. "I was very nervous," she laughed, "but it was a good kind of nervous."
The Grass Is Always Greener...
Nothing succeeds like success. Except in Britain, says Prince Edward, where the newspapers "hate anyone who succeeds." And where "there's more baggage, if you understand that expression." The British press certainly did, lambasting the prince, who runs a television production company, for telling The New York Times that working in Hollywood is "a breath of fresh air" compared to home. The British Chambers of Commerce partly agreed—"There's certainly room for improvement," said spokesman Andrew Parkinson. Edward, 35, later apologized: "I had no intention of offending my country."
A Mild Spice Makes Nice
When word came that Geri Halliwell, 27, planned to write her autobiography after a less-than-pleasant split from the Spice Girls last year and that her old band would pen their own memoirs, well, you could almost hear the announcer cry, "Let's get ready to ruuuuuuumble!"
Except that Scoop got an advance look at Halliwell's work If Only, due out in mid-October, and found that—like some pro-wrestling matches—the bad vibes may have been just for show.
Halliwell does have a few unkind words. The former Ginger Spice says that her fellow singers became more like business partners than friends after they all found success together. She pouts that at the time she left the band she felt "emotionally disappointed." And she admits that "in truth, I had barely talked to any of the girls since leaving the band" on May 31, 1998.
But "it's not a knives-out kind of book—she doesn't have an ax to grind," says Halliwell's publicist, Jonathan Hack-ford. "There is no literary feud, as far as Geri is concerned."
And what of her old mates? In their book, Forever Spice, due out in November in Britain, the Spices write about how they felt when Halliwell left just before a European tour ended "and how, mainly, they were upset," says Rebecca Cripps, the group's fan magazine editor. But that will be the only body slam. "The girls have a lot of love for [Geri]," says Cripps, who I is helping them with the new book. For now the band will concentrate on repositioning their image in the book as grown-up people. Says Cripps: "It's very classy."
Moving Right Along
Just how serious is this thing between Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones? Last fall, Douglas, 54, and Zeta-Jones, 29, kept a low profile. By spring they admitted to dating. They vacationed together in June, and in August they spent time in California with Douglas's father and stepmother. So will there be an engagement announcement when they celebrate their common birthday at Douglas's New York City apartment Sept. 25? "It's just a birthday party," says his spokesman. Party invitations—more than usual—were mailed last week. Douglas traditionally celebrates with friends also born Sept. 25, including: Barbara Walters, Christopher Reeve and fashion designer Nino Cerruti.
Although she played Princess Diana in two television movies, Catherine Oxenberg's three-bedroom Beverly Hills home was her castle—until now. Sotheby's International Realty is asking $1.3 million for the 1,600-square-foot Mediterranean-style villa with front and back courtyards. "I loved my house," says the former Dynasty star, "but I need to see the ocean." So Oxenberg, 37, and her husband, actor Casper Van Dien, 30 (Starship Troopers), are looking for property in sight of the Pacific in Malibu.

Maggie's, the charity which provides practical, emotional and social support for people with cancer, has applied for planning permission for a new Maggie's Centre to be built alongside Velindre Cancer Centre in Cardiff. The Centre, designed by award-winning architect's practice Dow Jones Architects will significantly enhance the cancer care and support already offered at the Velindre Cancer Centre - the largest cancer centre in the country providing specialist cancer services to over 1.5million people in Cardiff, Newport and beyond.
Patients will be able to access the huge range of support services that Maggie's offer, including psychological support, benefits advice, nutrition workshops, relaxation and stress management, art therapy, tai chi and yoga.
Laura Lee, Chief Executive of Maggie's said: "We are delighted to be working in partnership with the Velindre Cancer Centre and Dow Jones Architects. The emotional and practical impact on people with a cancer diagnosis and their families and friends is devastating as they face one of life's biggest challenges. Applying for planning permission brings us a step closer to Maggie's South East Wales becoming a reality."
The Centre will be warm and welcoming, full of light and open space, located in a mature garden with views over the surrounding landscape, and built from the same sandstone as the nearby hills. The interior will be lined with fragrant cedarwood, creating a range of spaces reflecting traditional Welsh architecture.
Alun Jones, of Dow Jones Architects said: "We are thrilled to be working with Maggie's, a charity we hugely admire. We are especially delighted to be working in Cardiff; the hospital is only a few miles from where I grew up."
The building and the landscape will have an intimate relationship, with the different rooms grouped around a central courtyard and opening into woodland gardens. The gardens will be designed by Cleve West, an RHS Gold Medallist and 'Best in Show' winner at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and will include spaces to grow food and walk among the trees. Cleve has built a reputation for innovative garden landscapes; his creative use of space and harmonious planting puts him at the forefront of contemporary garden design in the UK.

BOARDMAN - Cost of a weekend trip to Florida according to Priceline - $1,174. Cost of a weekend trip to the Sunshine State if you qualified for the NFL FLAG National Tournament of Champions - all expenses paid. Cost of winning a national title - priceless.
Eight local girls -Salem freshmen Rylee and Raegan Meals, fellow Quaker Rylee Leider, South Range's Emily and Sarah Moretti, Columbiana's Baylie Mooks, Medina's Alysaa Acevedo and Poland's Macy Diaz - will have the chance to make that national title dream a reality when they travel to Tampa for the national flag football tournament set for Jan. 14.
The girls, all members of the Youngstown Youth Flag Football Association (YYFFA), punched their free tickets to Orlando by winning the 12-14 girls division at the Cincinnati regional in October. Seven other regional champions will compete in the national tournament.
"We played four games total in Cincinnati," former YSU play maker and YYFFA coach Elliot Giles said." There were four teams in the 12-14 year-old division, and we beat everybody in our pool except Harrisburg, who beat us in overtime."
The two teams with the best record went on to meet in the regional final. That gave Youngstown another shot at the Harrisburg Eagles. Youngstown, who will compete in the NFL FLAG National Tournament as the Cincinnati Bengals, didn't waste the opportunity and turned away the undefeated Pennsylvania team by two touchdowns.
"It was fun to compete against other teams at the regional," Raegan said. "But beating Harrisburg in the championship after they beat us in overtime was pretty cool."
Giles agreed.
"We ended up beating every team there," he said. "(Harrisburg) got us first, but we won the one that counted and finished 3-1at the regional."
Winning the regional was thrilling, but not exactly surprising. The girls had proven their abilities all season, competing against primarily boy teams in the YYFFA and capturing the 12-14 league championship.
"All season we played against boys," Rylee said. "The regional was the first time we played all girls so we really didn't know what to expect.
But Giles did.
"I knew this team was good," Giles said. "We prepared for the regional by playing all boys. I knew they could compete. They had competed all season against boys. At this age, that's saying a lot."
And winning the league tournament - the girls scored 13 points late in the championship game to prevail 21-20 - says even more.
"They played some teams that had maybe one or two girls on it, but they were the only all-girl team in the league," said Jerry Meals, father to Rylee and Raegan. "Not only did they play the boys, they beat the boys. They won the league championship against basically all boys. You can imagine the boys were not too happy about being losing to girls, but it was fun to watch."
With the regional and league championships in their pockets, all that's left for the girls is a national crown.
"We're looking forward to making the trip and competing in the national tournament," Rylee said. "It's a new experience and it'll be fun no matter what, but hopefully we win it all."
With talent as high as their hopes, the team out of Youngstown just may pull it off.
"These girls are great athletes," Giles said. "They participate in softball, soccer and basketball and flag football has given them another opportunity to compete and compete at a high level. They came together, caught on to flag football and excelled at it. They are very coachable and more than that are very respectful. This team is extension of our league and our league is why this girls are together.
The YYFFA drew 650 players this past season - it's highest numbers to date - and will begin its spring season in March. For more information, call (330) 754-1070, email firstname.lastname@example.com or visit www.yffayouth.net.

However infused with Americana the Fourth of July Parade, however savory the barbecue, however spectacular the fireworks — it was all irrevocably marred by what happened as Independence Day drew to a close. In an instant, a day of celebration was thrown into tragedy.
A woman was killed.
A family lost a wife and mother.
A young motorist will forever live with the weight of contributing to a woman's death.
The loss of Matilde Garnica cast a pall over the past week. We mourn for our neighbor. Our deepest condolences go out to her husband, children, relatives and friends.
In the wake of tragedy, the community has been gripped by a range of emotions, from grief to anger to outrage.
Many want someone to be responsible for what happened the night of July 4. The person who stands to shoulder that responsibility is the driver who caused the collision.
Many want to brand the 22-year-old driver, who reportedly ran a red light, with a scarlet letter, and pretend they would never be so careless themselves.
But how many of us have been distracted while driving, whether adjusting the radio or fumbling with a cell phone? How many of us — like so many fellow motorists in the Santa Clarita Valley — have raced through a light as it turns from yellow to red?
How many of us have come within a breath of a crash that would have radically changed lives? Probably all of us.
In the midst of this tragedy, we salute the men and women of Santa Clarita who snapped into action when they witnessed calamity. Reports have poured in to The Signal of people rushing to the scene of the collision, banding together to lift the car off Garnica.
A young Marine's military instincts kicked in and he scooped up a bleeding child he feared might be trampled in the rush of rescuers. It was people at their best, thinking less of themselves and more of someone in trouble.
As a community, we have opportunities to help. Donations to the Garnica family can be made at Wells Fargo branches into memorial account number 8583277168. From 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. today, Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church — where
Matilde Garnica was very active — will hold a food sale, with all proceeds going to the Garnica family.
Myriad questions are being asked, and an official investigation is under way.
Meanwhile, we would be wise to rise above assumptions and accusations about what could (or should) have been done differently to prevent this tragedy, and to wait for the outcome of the Sheriff's Department investigation.
But that doesn't feel like enough, does it?
Emotionally, we all feel the need to do something, anything. We are averse to the idea that this mother's life would be swept up like the so much debris in the street without doing "something." And so we look for a place to fix blame.
City officials have made few comments, other than to extend their condolences to the Garnica family. In an open letter to the community, the City Council noted that a multi-department task force does extensive planning, including developing and implementing a traffic management plan for the night of July 4.
Those who were in Valencia that night and witnessed the crash may question the efficacy of that plan. There was no reduction in the 45 mph speed limit on Valencia Boulevard, where throngs of men, women and children were walking through crosswalks and practically sitting in the street.
City officials said Valencia Boulevard had to remain open for emergency services. In fact, roads are routinely closed to all but emergency vehicles. A crowded July 4 celebration should have been no exception.
Still, all those precautions couldn't have prevented this from happening, any more than sheriff's deputies lining a July 4 parade route can ensure a horse won't bolt and charge into the crowd. No more than a row of orange cones can ensure that a motorist doesn't plow into a crowded public event such as a farmer's market.
The public criticism and conjecture is all coming after the fact.
A car sped through a red light and collided with another vehicle. No amount of finger-pointing and criticism will reverse that chain of events or bring back Matilde Garnica.
But the tragedy can serve as a point of demarcation for public officials; a chance to say, "In eight years we've never seen a tragedy at the fireworks show. But now we have, and going forward we will examine what further steps we can take to ensure the safest environment possible."
In the meantime, let us as a community wait for the SCV Sheriff's Station to wrap up its investigation and offer what support we can to the Garnica family.
Looking forward, we should be mindful that the only way to guarantee a completely risk-free event is never to hold any events again.

512 megabytes of flash, wont go to far with downloads.
It probally can hold about 50 downloaded games not including save files.
What I am looking at is the graphics card. What could be in the graphics that could take it so long to develop if it is just slightly more powerful than the GameCube as they say?
512 megabytes of flash, wont go to far with downloads.
It probally can hold about 50 downloaded games not including save files.
no hard drive... what about downloading new maps, playing music and other such things , maybe it wil b and add on, then again, i suppose it wont b too much of a bad thing
^---it could be compatible with a usb hard drive, and there is always the SD slot if more room is needed beyond the 512MB
^ good news bout the hard drive, i think they will release one, also if i fill up the 512mb will that have an effect on performance do u think?
it shouldn't, flash memory actually reads much faster than a hard drive, so if anything you'll notice a performance hit once the hard drive has seen extensive use and become very fragmented
the actual difference is not very apparent to human perception, but flash accesses at roughly 20 nano seconds, where as a hdd takes about 10 milliseconds. Of couse these stats are for PCs but hardware limitations translate fairly well usually
EDIT: I think i just caught the real intent of your question....
No, filling up the 512 will not affect the systems performance bc this is not the memory used to play games, it is the memory to store the save files and roms for the classic games

Will there even be a way to defrag the harddrive?Originally Posted by phimuajedi69
well...not the prettiest solution, but if it is a USB drive hook it up to your computer and use windows defrag utility
not really sure bc i haven't got any experience with a console hard drive, anyone know what the xbox 360 does about it?
I wonder how much more powerful will the final edition of the graphics card be, in relation with those used in E3....
I also speak Yoshi, by the way.

Alexander von Humboldt and North America
A Conference by the German Historical Institute, Washington, D.C.
and the University at Buffalo (SUNY)
Conveners: Andreas Daum and Simone Lässig
June 3-6, 2004, in Washington, D.C.
Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859), Europe's last universal scientist and eminent traveler, is one of the outstanding intellectual figures of modern history. Humboldtian ideas were cited, redefined, and applied in many fields of modern culture, including landscape painting and environmental thinking, no less than in the emerging disciplines of botany, ethnology, and historiography. Today, Humboldt's oeuvre and what has been called Humboldtian Science are attracting new and growing interest. Scholars in several fields are reviewing Humboldt's inter-disciplinary work, his thinking about human and natural networks, and his cross-cultural and transnational comparisons.
Our conference—marking the bicentennial of Humboldt's visit to the United States in 1804—will further explore these avenues by inquiring into Humboldt's specific impact on North American culture, society, and politics, particularly in the United States and Canada. Humboldt initiated numerous personal links and intellectual transfers between North America, Germany, and other European nations. Humboldtian ideas inspired the young societies of the United States and Canada to search for structuring principles as they explored the west and sought a systematic understanding of nature. Humboldt's ideas and work also played an important role in dealing with such crucial political issues as slavery.
The conveners invite interested scholars to submit proposals for papers that place Humboldt and the impact of Humboldtian thinking in the context of American, Canadian and North Atlantic history. Comparative papers are also invited. Please send a short abstract of 2-3 pages plus a short c.v. of no more than 2 pages, including a list of relevant publications, to the contact below.
The deadline for submissions is January 10, 2004. The conference will take place from June 3 to 6 at the German Historical Institute in Washington, D.C. The organizing institutions are prepared to cover the costs of travel and hotel accommodation.
