It would not be a goal because the last deliberate action on the puck was the kick by Hossa. It doesn't matter if the kicking motion was towards the net or not. If the puck enters the net as a result of a kicking motion then it is not a goal.
OK Agreed... ( I am not trying to be argumentative ...BUT)
We know they maybe made a bad call.. they will never say WHY they called it that or why it was called this! So we may never know
This is what I came up with..take it for what its worth, Ignore it..what ever you want.
49.2 Goals - Kicking the puck shall be permitted in all zones. A goal cannot be scored by an attacking player who uses a distinct kicking motion to propel the puck into the net. A goal cannot be scored by an attacking player who kicks a puck that deflects into the net off any player, goalkeeper or official.
The puck was kicked yes..but it was not at the net. His kicking motion was off the post..which is not a shot on goal. SO..in keeping with that....
A puck that deflects into the net off an attacking player's skate who does not use a distinct kicking motion is a legitimate goal. A puck that is directed into the net by an attacking player's skate shall be a legitimate goal as long as no distinct kicking motion is evident. The following should clarify deflections following a kicked puck that enters the goal:
Nothing is definitive on the deflection off post or any equipment lying on the ice. Assuming the puck deflects off a discarded stick and goes in....It would be ruled a good goal.
the same would be if it was deflected off the post of the goal. So Here is my ultimate and "who gives a crap" look at what I think the NHL was thinking.
A) the puck was kicked but it was not at the goal, or it would of went in and NO GOAL would of been the call on the ice.
B) the puck deflected off the post(s) and waffled in on edge with momentum going into the net...
SO I guess that's why it was called good.
The rule does not state that the "Last deliberate action on the puck must be......" So I am not convinced that the call should of been made by that alone. (Had it gone in direct off the skate- I agree no goal is the right call) They made the call based on interpretations of rules that they enforce. Beyond that.. I have no clue.
Ill Finish this off so you don't have to say another word... something like this right??
LGW Nation Mr. Hockeytown?
Hockeytownryan: Yes, sir?
LGW Nation: That is a lucid, intelligent, well thought-out objection.
Hockeytownryan: Thank you, sir.
LGW Nation: Overruled.

I am strictly gluten free and am particularly fond of Nairn gluten free products but they are hard to find in Minnesota. When I found these at iHerb I tried them and also offered them to my grandsons. We all love them and the packaging makes them easy to carry on expeditions to the zoo or museums. Now if I could just get iHerb to carry Nairn gluten free oatcakes I would be one happy person.

Really wholesome flavor - raisins are subtle, the cookies overall aren't sweet. Perfect texture - not too crunchy.. They're individually wrapped though, about 4 to a pack, which means you have to eat that many in one go..! Not hard to do when they're so tasty..

The VideoGamer.com E308 award of old skool arcade action
Winner - Street Fighter 4, Xbox 360, PS3, Arcade. Capcom.
I'm 13 again. It's the early nineties. My pockets are filled with coins. My palms are sweaty and my left wrist aches (not because of that). But I'm soldiering on because Street Fighter 4 has rekindled in me a fighting game fire that hasn't burned this brightly in over a decade. If you played Street Fighter 2 back in the day (who didn't?) and loved it, then Street Fighter 4 is guaranteed to please. If you didn't, it's still guaranteed to please. One of my highlights of E3 2008 was sitting next to SF legend Seth Killian and have him take me through the new characters one by one, and their new moves. You can see it all for yourself in these exclusive videos. Absolutely thrilling.
Runners up - SoulCalibur IV, Geometry Wars 2
The VideoGamer.com E308 award of ultimate Edge (James 'Edge' Orry)
Winner - Prince of Persia, Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Ubisoft.
Some people have that little soemthing that separates them from the rest of the population. You can't put your finger on exactly what it is, but it's there. One such greater being is our very own News Editor, James 'Edge' Orry, and we thought a man of this stature shouldn't just contribute to the VideoGamer.com E3 Awards, but actually have his own award. For the Edge there's only one game that stood out, head and shoulders above the rest... and that's Ubisoft's gorgeous looking Prince of Persia. We're still to see just how revolutionary AI companion Elika will turn out, but man this game looks good.
Runners up - Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Resident Evil 5

Soccer hunk Cristiano Ronaldo totaled his Ferrari on Thursday morning after crashing into a roadside barrier inside a tunnel near Manchester Airport.
The Manchester United star, who is originally from Portugal, was not injured and his breathalyzer test came up negative, reports the BBC.
Ronaldo's teammate Edwin van der Sar, in a Bentley, had been following the Ferrari – but was not involved in the smashup, in which Ronaldo, 23, lost one of his wheels.
A spokesman for Manchester United said, "He was involved in an incident this morning. No other cars were involved. He's fine and is training as normal with the team this morning."

A 27-hour trip to the other side of the world tells you just how big this planet is. A 10-minute walk from our headquarters in the Intercontinental Hotel to the Hilton Hotel in Addis Ababa illustrates just how small it can be.
In 1977, John Axtell, Gebisa's major professor, mentor, and friend, bought a new car. Instead of trading in his worn-out, blue Oldsmobile, he gave it to Gebisa.
Before leaving to work in Sudan after he earned his Purdue doctoral degree in 1978, Gebisa, like Axtell had done for him, bequeathed the blue beater to another struggling graduate student, an entomology researcher named Awash, now head of the AIDS research program at Columbia University in New York City.
And who did Gebisa run into in the lobby of the Addis Ababa Hilton on Sunday morning? That's right, Awash, the other charter member of the John Axtell car club, in town for a seminar.

Bishop Victor Curry celebrates 21st anniversary
admin | 6/11/2012, 8 a.m.
[gallery link="file" orderby="title"] Bishop Victor T. Curry, the founding senior pastor of the New Birth Baptist Church, is use to having his days packed with various activities. His tasks include juggling pastoral responsibilities for two churches, two schools, an employment agency, a renowned civil rights organization, and a broadcasting company, among other duties. Yet recently, Currys schedule was able to reflect upon his tenure as the senior pastor of Miami Gardens mega church. Last week, the minister celebrated his 21st pastoral anniversary of the 13,000-plus member congregation of New Birth Baptist Church. I feel a combination of excitement and gratitude to God and to the wonderful members of New Birth, Curry said. Im really appreciative and indebted to a lot of people especially to my staff at New Birth and all of the [New Birth] entities because they make it possible for me to do what I think God has called me to do. Celebration services were held on May 21st - 23rd and May 26th - 27th and featured special guest speakers including Pastors Alphonso Jackson, Sr., D.L. Powell, Victor Couzens and Calvin McFadden. Founded by Curry and a handful of founding members in 1991 in Currys living room, New Birth Baptist Church has since expanded and the church and its entities now include the E.V. Hill Bible College, the John A. McKinney Christian Academy, the New Birth Broadcasting Corporation/WMBM, Vision to Victory Human Services employment agency, and Christine Curry Child Development Center. There is a new enrichment center that will encase a gymnasium, cafe and book store that the church has tentatively scheduled to begin building by 2013. Even Curry did not foresee the exponential growth when the ministry was initially founded. I really didnt know the full extent of what God was going to do but I did share with people that I knew it was going to be an usual church, he recalled. [The founding members and I] all had that common belief that God was going to do something special through New Birth. The busy minister has no set plans for retirement and is still striving to help the community in whatever ways it seems to need the most assistance. Now Curry has set his sights on reaching out to more boys and men. First by founding an all boys Bible-based academy specializing in math and science. The other area that well be focusing on is ratcheting up our mens ministry to provide holistic care and provide a second chance for men who have been incarcerated and for men have been [homeless], he said.

There are always two ways of seeing things, for Wisconsin the stats tell a very ugly story, but on the flip side is a young team that went in and dominated play early on Saturday night. On Monday head coach Bret Bielema chose to emphasis the positives following Wisconsin's 30-27 loss to Nebraska.
"The only thing you can deal with is the situation that you're in. We're 3-2. Would we rather be 5-0? Absolutely. We could also be 1-4," said head coach Bret Bielema during Monday's press conference.
"We've lost a Big Ten conference game, but we haven't lost anything within our division. This week it's not the case. We have Illinois coming to town, and Illinois is in our division, and they obviously want to go to Indianapolis as bad as we do. All you can do is focus on the task at hand."
Those statements are just a sampling of the positives that Bielema somehow took away from the debacle in Lincoln, NE on Saturday night.
On the other side of those positives are numbers that are shockingly bad for the Badgers, especially on offense.
Wisconsin's offense ranks 9th in the Big Ten in scoring offense at 22.6 points a game, just .6 points off the bottom of the league and if that weren't bad enough the deeper you dig into it the worse it gets. The offense ranks dead last in total offense, averaging just 309.4 yards a game, a full 40 yards less than the next worst team – our opponent on Saturday, Illinois.
Once feared for the ability to run the ball nearly at will the Badgers haven't been able to muster anything in terms of the rushing attack. The Badgers are averaging just 125.6 yards a game, dead last in the Big Ten. Seriously, we've got a statistically worse rushing attack than Iowa, Penn State, and Indiana – that's just pathetic at the moment.
Just when you thought it couldn't get worse – Wisconsin is also dead last in passing offense, averaging just 183.6 yards a game. Only Iowa, Northwestern, and Michigan State have fewer passing TD's than Wisconsin's 5 for the year. Oh, and on the flip side of that the Badgers have given up the most TD's passing of any team in the conference with 10.
The game against Nebraska was a huge microcosm of what's been happening stats wise for the Badgers all season long. Wisconsin's defense was about as bad as it has been all season long, giving up 259 yards rushing and allowing Taylor Martinez to do what he wanted nearly at will on his way to being named Big Ten Co-Offensive Player of the Week.
Wisconsin had just 56 yards rushing as a team and if you're keeping track at home that's a full 203 yards less than the Huskers managed on the ground.
But in keeping with Bielema's positive theme the Badgers do have some of the best special teams play in the Big Ten, coming in first in punting averaging 42.8 yards per punt and a 40.6 net average and owning the best kick coverage unit in the conference as well. So there's that, right?
Despite all of that evidence there was plenty to be gained from the loss to Nebraska and a lot to like about it as well.
"I learned a lot about our football team. I learned a lot about them in the first half, learned a lot about them in the second half," Bielema said. "I get excited because a lot of the things that you saw unfold, a lot of them came within our way of doing things."
You can't win games when you are giving up more yards than you are gaining, yet that's what Wisconsin is doing – giving up nearly 350 yards a game while only gaining 309 yards a game. Perhaps you can get away with that against the likes of UTEP and Northern Iowa, but do that against anyone in the Big Ten and you will lose.
The Nebraska loss had to be frustrating for the players and coaches a like, but taking the positive away from it could be the right thing moving forward.
"It's frustrating to lose a football game, but you can't let Nebraska beat you twice," said Bielema. "That's a very, very real thing in the world of college football."
Clearly coming out and ripping your team apart in a press conference isn't the right move, but at least Bielema and Co. recognize that the rest of the season is still in front of them and are keeping their chin up and fighting through it all, despite what the stats and record indicate.
"It's all in front of us." Bielema said in closing out his press conference. "We control our own destiny, and that's a great thing to be able to say."

A complaint filed with the National Labor Relations Board against St. Charles Health System by the Service Employees International Union Local 49 could delay a union decertification vote by about a month -- and depending on the outcome, could scrap the vote entirely, an official said Tuesday.
The roughly 600 members of the union, voted in narrowly early last year, had been scheduled to vote Wednesday on whether to oust the union, which has been unable to negotiate a first contract with St. Charles Medical Center-Bend. At least 30 percent of workers have to sign a petition to request such a vote, said NLRB spokeswoman Nancy Cleeland in Washington, D.C.
But last Friday, SEIU officials filed a unfair labor practice charge against St. Charles, alleging, among other things, that the hospital "has interfered with, restrained and coerced its employees" and "discriminated against them because of their union or other protected activity."
"Management has really -- it's really breaking the law and creating a very hostile environment for its workers," Felisa Hagins, SEIU Local 49 political director, said Wednesday.
The accusations range from terminating workers for pro-union activities to surveillance and intimidation of workers to bad-faith bargaining.
"At first I was surprised with the blocking of the vote," said Chris Buck, an ER technician and one of nearly 600 service workers at the hospital. "In my opinion, I think we have the majority to decertify the union."
"I love my job at St. Charles," Buck said. "I've always loved my job at St. Charles."
Buck said he's never had any issues with upper management or not being paid overtime, and sees no need for a union.
"To me, we have always had a voice," Buck said. "It just depends on if you're willing to stand up and use that voice without that third party present."
At the largest private employer in Central Oregon, the union flap has sparked some sharp divisions the community is noticing.
"I think it's taken a lot of time and energy on both the hospital part and the employee part," said Bend resident Linda Burgel.
Buck says his voice has been drowned out by the pro-union side. He said when he would put up a flier of how he felt next to one of the SEIU fliers, it got torn down.
"To me, it just seems like I was trying my opinion was being nullified -- and that just fired me up and inspired me to actually speak up now," Buck said.
Despite the lack of a contract, SEIU officials believe most workers are on their side.
"i think we have shown a strong majority," Hagins said. "I think workers continue to step up to keep and show their majority."
The complaint also claimed three workers were terminated last week "because of their union activity" and that the hospital "has refused to bargain in good faith" with SEIU.
SEIU Unfair Labor Practice Charge Against SCMC (Adobe Acrobat Reader required)
The hospital has denied such claims and called Friday's filing "disappointing."
Cleeland said an NLRB investigator was on site at the hospital Tuesday to interview those involved.
Cleeland disputed the interpretation the union gave in the headline of a media advisory Tuesday that said the NLRB had found "sufficient cause to block (the) upcoming election."
Instead, she said, regional officials told her the union's allegations "are sufficient to potentially impact the election, and therefore it is appropriate to block the election" for the time being, to investigate the SEIU's claims.
The NLRB is handling the matter as "a priority investigation, because it is holding up an election," Cleeland said.
If evidence is found to substantiate the claims, a hearing will be held and employees called to be interviewed.
"Depending on the outcome, either they would ask the union to withdraw the charge and go ahead with the election, or determine the petition was faulty and dismiss the decertification petition," Cleeland said.
How long that will take "depends on what they find and how cooperative all the parties are," the NLRB public affairs officer said. "The target is to do it within five weeks."

2004 Individual Investigator Grant Recipient – Wael ElShamy
Wael El Shamy, Ph.D.
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Another Protein Made by BRCA1 Gene and its Role in Ovarian Cancer
Project Summary
In some families, ovarian cancer is caused by the inaction of the tumor-suppressor gene, BRCA1. Dr. El Shamy has has discovered a second protein produced at the BRCA1 gene location, named IRIS, the function of which is not known. But Dr. El Shamy believes IRIS plays an opposite role in the life of ovarian cells, stimulating the growth and dispersion of these cells. Dr. El Shamy has found that IRIS over-expression in normal ovarian epithelial cells leads to dramatic down-regulation in the expression of the ovarian tumor suppressor, Disabled-2 (Dab-2), causing cancer growth and spread. In this project, Dr. El Shamy will investigate the role of IRIS in laboratory cells and in ovarian cancer tissue from women treated in the clinic to determine when IRIS is active, in which cancers IRIS is active, and the consequences of IRIS. IRIS may be a dangerous cancer-causing gene, and could be the target of future treatments of ovarian and breast cancers.

What to do when there's nothing you can do.
I was chatting yesterday with Herman Ng over at mobile and web performance management firm Keynote Systems Inc. That's the firm behind our weekly Keynote Mobile Commerce Performance Index. He keeps a sharp eye on the data every week and looks for bright spots, problems and trends. Well, this week he noticed a problematic trend.
The average time it takes to download the m-commerce site home page of the 30 retailers on the index increased from 8.81 seconds four weeks ago to 9.65 seconds last week. The cause? Degrading performance on the four major wireless carriers: AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon. This has nothing to do with the performance of the retailers' sites; rather, this has everything to do with the quality of the wireless network performance. So I asked Herman what can a retailer do about this? The answer, I'm afraid, is nothing. It's up to the carriers to ensure their networks perform at optimal speeds, and it's up to the carriers to invest more in their networks to ensure a high level of consistent performance.
With no options, what a retailer can do is make sure to keep mobile commerce sites slim and trim, to keep the kilobyte weight of pages and the number of objects on a page down. The lighter the page, the quicker it will load. That way, when a wireless network is running slow, it will minimize the overall time it will take for a consumer to see your mobile page. A heavy page can push your site into the impatient zone, where mobile consumers—who like things fast and efficient—will abandon you entirely.
This is not to say you can't have great design tools like revolving carousels of product images on a page, or rotating hero shots. You just have to pick and choose so that the total weight of any given page isn't too much. By all means use great design features on a page, but make sure the rest of the page doesn't add up to trouble. And of course, always employ tricks of the trade like optimizing images for the mobile screen so they are not the huge versions being used for the e-commerce site but rather smaller versions that rack up fewer kilobytes.
Carriers are pouring more money into their wireless networks, and in general people have good experiences. These last four weeks on the Keynote index could be a blip, as Herman points out. But one way or another, they show that retailers have to be as good as they can be on their side of the coin once they hand over their mobile web pages to the wireless networks. Thin is in.

Originally posted 01/30/2012 11:20AM
Despite the many gorgeous celebrities flocking last night's Screen Actors Guild Awards red carpet, Kyra Sedgwick stood out thanks to a bold new accessory.
Clad in a fire engine red Emilio Pucci column, The Closer star (and best drama actress nominee) explained the significance of the linear design resting just north of her exposed ribcage.
"It's a family tattoo," she told E! "It's all our initials K, K, S and T."
The actress was, of course, referring to husband of 23-years, Kevin Bacon, their son Travis, 22 and daughter Sosie, 19.
Emmy Nominations: Who Most Deserved a Nomination?

Another year, another Emmy snub for Courteney Cox.
Buzz had been building that the Cougar Town actress, 47, might earn her first Emmy nomination this year. But she was left off the list of nominees Thursday – one of several notable omissions.
Other actors who didn't feel the love from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences this year: Kyra Sedgwick of The Closer, the Emmy winner in 2010; Sean Bean of Game of Thrones; Joel McHale of Community; and Lea Michele of Glee.
Tell us: Which of these actors deserved a nomination the most? (Or leave your own choice in the comments below.)
Kyra Sedgwick's Success Is 'Bittersweet'
Originally posted 07/14/2008 11:00AM
With her award-winning show starting its fourth season, and her 20th
anniversary to Kevin Bacon around the corner, Kyra Sedgwick has it
all. But the success of The Closer has its downside, too,
she tells Redbook in its July 15 issue.
"The last thing I wanted to do was move to L.A. for six months of the year," she says. "But now I have to live with the wonderful success of it all and the bitter-sweetness of that success – because success means I'm not home."
Still, she's not complaining – especially not about her family.

Reserve quarterback Casey Paus led two second-half scoring drives and Washington's defense held the Spartans (2-3) in check one week after their 70-63 victory over Rice in the highest-scoring regulation game in NCAA history.
San Jose State dropped to 0-9 against the Huskies (1-4), who allowed only 111 yards rushing and 22 yards passing. Washington kept the Spartans out of the end zone after they had scored 10 TDs in last week's wacky win.
The Huskies simply wore down the Spartans, who were less fortunate than Western Athletic Conference mates Nevada and Fresno State - each of whom won in the previous two visits by WAC members to Seattle.
James had 90 yards rushing on a 99-yard third-quarter scoring drive, helping Washington pull away from a 7-3 halftime lead. The Huskies got a break when officials ruled James was down on an apparent fumble early in the march.
Paus was 5-of-9 for 55 yards after replacing redshirt freshman Carl Bonnell, who was 2-of-7 for 20 yards.
Washington is off to its worst start in 35 years, and a look around sparsely attended Husky Stadium showed as much. The attendance of 65,816 seemed a little high, judging from the many empty seats at the 72,500-seat stadium.
Those on hand helped Washington's Keith Gilbertson celebrate a victory in his 100th game as a college head coach.
Bonnell started his second game but was effective only on his opening series. Directing the option the whole way, he had 65 yards rushing on the 80-yard drive, capping it with a 1-yard TD run for a 7-0 lead.
Bonnell struggled after San Jose State made some defensive adjustments, leading to interceptions by Brian Nunez and Matthew Castelo, and the Spartans twice took over inside Washington's 20 late in the first half.
All they got on the scoreboard was a 32-yard field goal by Jeff Carr. San Jose State took over at the 13, ran seven plays and netted 0 yards despite a defensive holding penalty that moved the ball as close as the 7.
After the second turnover, Carr's 36-yard field-goal attempt was wide right.
The Spartans weren't finished with their inability to take advantage of Washington's mistakes.
They wasted another gift in the third quarter, after Huskies punter Sean Douglas fumbled deep in Washington territory and Rakine Toomes recovered for San Jose State at the 4.
Four plays later - after a lengthy timeout to consider what play to call - Spartans quarterback Dale Rogers fell on the ball after he dropped the snap on fourth-and-goal at the 1, and the Huskies took over on downs.

Leptin is over my head but welcome.
New forum member. I've been on the HCG forum for months...now I'm looking for something a bit more.....I'm 5 pounds of fat from goal....going back and forth trying to decide if I'm Leptin resistant...any thoughts?
Specifically, do I need to do the Leptin Reset from Dr. Kruse? Can I just keep doing pure Paleo eating?? It's all so overwhelming sometimes...

Leptin is over my head but welcome.
Ancestral Health Info
I design websites and blogs for a living. If you would like a blog or website designed by someone who understands Primal, see my web page.
Primal Blueprint Explorer My blog for people who are not into the Grok thing. Since starting the blog, I have moved close to being Archevore instead of Primal. But Mark's Daily Apple is still the best source of information about living an ancestral lifestyle.
I wonder if I am overdoing it by trying for a Leptin Reset. I'm in a healthy weight range and am finally in great health. I wouldn't mind being able to overdo it one day and not gain 10 pounds from it.
Will losing 5 pounds put you at your ideal weight or is your goal a kind of "good enough" thing? If it's the former, all you probably need to do is follow the PB with some intermittent fasting.
You lousy kids! Get off my savannah!
I found that after doing HCG my weight was very unstable, which is quite distressing. After my last round of phase 2, I made my phase 3 primal and have been doing that ever since (14months+). I slowly lost about 5 more pounds doing that, but more importantly, my weight is now very stable. I think it would be a mistake to do anything drastic. Just be patient, eat very clean (NO grains or sugar), limit your carbs to <100g. If you want to go below 50g on carbs, keep a careful journal, taking note of your energy levels, sleep habits, mood, etc. Everyone is different, and for some people going too low on carbs can really backfire. After a few months of clean primal living, your weight should be more stable, and then perhaps you can try IFing if you want to.
The leptin reset thing... I didn't find it necessary. I feel that primal living reset my leptin response to a healthy level. YMMV of course...

I know little about Leptin Reset,but I know Balanced diet and proper exercise are good!
There is a very long thread that details the leptin reset here on MDA. I spent several evenings getting through the whole thing, but the information there is invaluable. Helped me to know what to expect. If you are IR you might be LR and it could help. Reading the thread may help you decide if that is the path you want to take. Great place to get questions answered too.
Good Luck!!
Thanks for the help everyone! WineLady, yep, I've read nearly the whole Leptin Reset thread. Can you blame a girl for skimming?? I think I will continue down the path of Leptin reset eating. If it impacts me negatively then I'll change it up a bit and add more carbs. I actually love this way of eating. I like having a big breakfast to tide me over most of the day. I like being able to eat more volume and still lose weight. The fact that I'm losing already leads me to believe I've beat the Leptin problem (I've been doing this off and on for about a month).
Grumpy, losing 5 pounds of fat will make me look good naked.
bokbadok, what do you mean by low carb can backfire for some people..?
Down another .6 today...that's 3.4 pounds in 3 days.

CAMDEN — Jamal Burgess, 33, of Camden, was fatally shot about 8 p.m. Wednesday while sitting in a vehicle on the 2000 block of North 8th Street.
Two other men were wounded by gunfire.
A person who was with Burgess drove him to Cooper University Hospital immediately after the shooting. Burgess was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital.
Police were notified of the incident by a 9-1-1 call reporting numerous shots fired.
As police investigated the shooting, another 9-1-1 call reported two men injured by gunfire at Ferry Avenue and Kossuth Street.
It was determined the shooting that led to Burgess' death also injured two other men, cousins Samad Land, 19, and Martell Land, 18, both of Camden.
After being shot on 8th Street, the cousins ran to Ferry and Kossuth where Martell Land called 9-1-1. Samad Land is in critical condition at Cooper. Martell Land was treated and released.
The circumstances of the shooting remain under investigation. Anyone with information is urged to contact Camden County Prosecutor's Office Investigator Tricia Taulane at (856) 225-8400 or Camden Police Detective T. Watkins at (856) 757-7420.

I love when my kids turn 5 and head off to school. Not just because they're getting an awesome education at Drayton Hall Elementary School (DHES), the only school in South Carolina to be recognized as an Apple Distinguished School (insert shameless plug here: Go Bobcats!), but also because it gives me a break from the fighting, whining, begging, back talk … Heck, let's just call it what it is: The Crazy!
Before you start thinking that I'm unleashing a miniature-sized herd of unruly kids on a group of sweet, unsuspecting teachers, the truth is their behavior is wonderful at school. Strange, but true. And I'm not the first mom to notice this bizarre phenomenon. For years, I have wondered why my children are so willing not to just break the rules at home, but shatter them; meanwhile, they wouldn't dream of getting out of line with their teachers.
In about one month, my break will be coming to a screeching halt, and I will be facing what I like to call the "Summertime Smack Down."
This year, in an effort to avoid a summer vacation filled with chaos and disorder, I decided to implement a behavior system that would closely resemble the classroom setting. After all, it's working for the teachers.
I bought two new dry erase boards: one for a behavior chart, one for chores. I started working on a clear list of rules, consequences and rewards. I even began a family newsletter. Surprisingly, the kids were really into it. They were thrilled at the idea of the home environment matching the one at school.
DHES kindergarten teacher and Apple Distinguished Educator Kristi Meeuwse says there are real "benefits of setting clear expectations and consequences" as children "like a clear understanding of what they are to do."
It doesn't just end there. Knowing what's expected of them is only half the battle. According to Meeuwse, the keys to well-behaved children, both at home and school, are consistency and follow-through.
"Unless parents are consistent and follow through on those rules and consequences," she says, "it doesn't matter how many rules you have. Kids will know they are meaningless."
Meeuwse also suggests allowing the kids to play an active role in "the creation of family rules and expectations." Encouraging their involvement fosters teamwork and shows you value their input. As a result, "they are more likely to buy into the concept," she explains.
One method she uses and recommends for families is a "Code of Cooperation." She and her class decide together what elements are most important for a peaceful learning environment. They design a poster including four easy-to-remember rules and each child signs it.
Based on Meeuwse's advice, I think I'm on the right track. The kids have been enthusiastically offering suggestions for rewards and are eager to share how things are done in their classrooms. And I have stopped issuing idle threats. You know the ones—"Don't make me pull this van over!" Or, "If you don't clean this room, I'm going to throw every toy on the floor in the garbage!"
If we keep this up, I may not receive a Summertime Smack Down, after all.

How to Use a Slow Cooker
Slow cookers provide convenience for people who like home-cooked meals, but are on tight time schedules. These small appliances have evolved over the years to include timers and more stylish designs, but the functionality of them has remained the same. Use these suggestions for how to use a slow cooker.
1Create space on your counter for your slow cooker.
- Position your slow cooker near an outlet.
- Keep the slow cooker at least 6 inches (15.2 cm) away from other appliances, food wrappers, walls or other surfaces. The slow cooker does not get hot enough to burn your countertop, but it can damage other surfaces that rest against it or near it.
2Prepare food for your slow cooker recipe.
- Chop, slice or dice vegetables as directed by the recipe. Tend to the vegetables ahead of time to speed up the assembling process.
- Trim fat and gristle from meat.
- Brown meat, if directed by the recipe. This step can be eliminated if time does not allow it.
- Add seasonings to meat or vegetables. If your recipe doesn't require you to season the meat or vegetables before adding them to the slow cooker, sort out what you need so all seasonings and spices are ready when it's time to assemble the recipe.
3Put the food and seasonings into the slow cooker. Layer food as directed by the recipe instructions. Some recipes suggest layering so that some foods reach warmer temperatures for longer periods of time during the cooking process.
4Pour liquid into the slow cooker. Your slow cooker should be half-way to three-quarters full after the liquid is added to the food contents.
5Place the lid on your slow cooker. Add aluminum foil to the lid if it appears to have gaps or is loose. The lid must fit well for your slow cooker to cook your food effectively.
6Turn on the slow cooker. Select the proper setting.
- Choose the low setting if you want your recipe to cook for 8 to 10 hours. The low setting allows a slower warm up period, which often results in more tender meat and vegetables.
- Select the high setting to cook your meat for 4 to 6 hours.
7Allow your food to cook.
- Keep the lid on. Lifting the lid allows heat to leave the slow cooker, lengthening the cooking period.
- Refrain from stirring your food midway through the cooking process. Stirring is unnecessary.
8Add extra ingredients at the end.
- Pour pasta into the recipe 30 minutes prior to when you expect your dish to be done. Pasta cooks more quickly and becomes mushy if left in the slow cooker too long.
- Stir in corn starch to thicken up liquid 20 to 30 minutes before your meal is ready.
- Put in quick-cooking vegetables during the last hour of cooking. Examples include broccoli, cauliflower and corn.
- Add seafood within 60 minutes of the dish being completed. Seafood cooks quickly compared to other ingredients in slow cooker recipes.

Smoked Oysters | Whole Boiled Oysters | Crown Prince Natural
I tried these and really liked them:
Smoked Bacon Oysters | Mark's Daily Apple
Easy to fix and pretty quick.
Love poached oysters! Seriously awesome!
I found John West Smoked Oysters. Ingredients are Wood Smoked Oysters, Sunflower Oil, Salt.
Havent tried them yet, Gonna have to get some next time I go shopping
Every time I hear the dirty word 'exercise', I wash my mouth out with chocolate.
you are all making my mouth water....oysters with bacon and wostershire sause are divine, and maybe add some shalllots.
Oyster is my favorite food. Usually I fry them with batter. Also it is good with chili sauce.
Last edited by whitebeak; 04-07-2013 at 08:27 AM.
Mark just recently had a canned oyster recipe, you should be able to find it from last week. It was oysters wrapped in bacon and cooked at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Make sure the pan your cooking on them has holes or something and you have something to catch the grease, or they'll get greasy. Anyway, I made it, it was DELICIOUS.
Edited to add: I see Terry H beat me, and he put in a link. Whoop!
I just get the cheap canned oysters in water. Open can, drink all the water, eat the oysters, simple as that. They're really good that way! And at $2.00 per can, not the cheapest - but so nutrient dense it's totally worth it. I eat about three 6 oz. cans a week. Polar brand from Grocery Outlet.
Steak, eggs, potatoes - fruits, nuts, berries and forage. Coconut milk and potent herbs and spices. Tea instead of coffee now and teeny amounts of kelp daily. Let's see how this does! Not really had dairy much, and gut seems better for it.

LomoGuru of the Week: Trashpilotin2012-08-26 15 19 Share Tweet
It's all the crazy people that she met in the Lomography community that she was able to explore some unfamiliar places by doing film swaps with them, at least! And being a photo editor herself, she finds the Lomo LC-A a charming little thing, giving her results far from what the usual digital clicker can give! Meet Trashpilotin, our LomoGuru of the week!
Full Name: Sonja Berg
Lomography username: http://www.lomography.com/homes/trashpilotin
Location: Germany
Number of years as a Lomographer: 3
Number of years in the Community: 3
Share to us your most memorable experience in the Lomographic Community.
I love being a part of the lomographic community, there are so many memorable experiences, for example when you pick up a double roll and you see your pictures mixed with some landmarks you haven't been yourself but your pictures have. This is such a nice way to travel the world! The most memorable experience was to win the "energy around you" rumble last year and that my picture was part of the exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro! Beside that my picture was shown in such a significant museum it was important to me that I won with the "energy around me" that is the most outstanding to me: Music.
Have you actually met people in the Community that you now consider as close friends? If yes, name at least one of them.
I really like the crazy people in the community from all over the world and to do doubles with them, for example Dekadev_Pui to http://www.lomography.com/homes/dakadev_pui, Atria007, Grazie or Lazybuddha. I also like the german community a lot but I live so far away, that attending lomomeetings is hard for me, but I do meet das-z link on a regular basis and he inspires me a lot. I also got acquainted with really good friends to lomography like bloemche or stadtpiratin who are now really active here too and I appreciate that a lot.
Do you think you'll still be taking Lomographs in the next 5 years? Why?
I think so because I so adore Film-Photography and it is a good adjustment for my daily work as an editor, where you always need digital pictures, as fast and sharp as possible. I love it that a good lomographic picture can be totally out of focus and nevertheless really beautiful. I hope that there is a future for the film industry and that we can use those beautiful rolls furthermore.
What is your favorite Lomo camera and why? Do you have any memorable experiences while using this camera?
This is hard, but the LC-A will always be in my heart, I inherited it from my uncle who really influenced me in who I am today, therefore I am not using the old LC-A on a regularly base but the LC-A+. I also like the Horizon Perfekt a lot! I sometimes shoot at festivals or concerts and meet only digital photographers there, sometimes they are so cocky and just focused on their expensive accoutrement that they hardly talk to anybody but if you got something like the Spinner 360 with you they get curious and want to know everything about it…
Is there any advice you can give to new analogue shooters?
Just try anything you like. Try different films, different cameras and different techniques, be curious, get inspired by pictures, art and music you like. There is no wrong in lomography. If you got questions just ask, the lomography community is the nicest around and you sure will get an answer. Just enjoy taking pictures.
They are the ones whose passion transcends not only by what they do and say, but also with what they see and capture with their film cameras. And with such attributes aforementioned, they are what we call LomoGurus! Every week, we get to ask questions and reveal some insights with the most talented and productive of all Lomographers from the Community!

Rethink Charity
Charity has come to business. From the holistic approach of Whole Foods to Product RED's directing corporate advertising dollars to Target's massive charitable giving program, business is realizing that making a difference in the world makes a difference for a brand. They are realizing that Milton Friedman's insistence that social causes had no place in business overlooks the competitive advantage created when companies align with a cause.

India held their nerve to beat England by five runs in a rain-disrupted Champions Trophy final at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Sunday.
In a match reduced to 20-overs-a-side, a fifth-wicket partnership of 64 between Eoin Morgan and Ravi Bopara put England in sight of a victory target of 130 and their first major 50-over trophy.
- Congratulate Team India
But the pair fell to successive deliveries by Ishant Sharma and England's lower order crumbled as the hosts finished on 124 for eight.
The victory earned Mahendra Singh Dhoni the unique record of being the first captain to win three World titles, having won the 2007 World T20 and 50-overs World Cup
- PHOTOS: India reign in the rain
Earlier, Miserly bowling by Bopara and James Tredwell helped England restrict India to 129 for seven after the start of play was delayed by nearly six hours due to persistent rain.
Virat Kohli top-scored with 43 and Shikhar Dhawan, the tournament's leading run-scorer, made a breezy 31 but India were never able to dominate a disciplined England attack.
Kohli skied James Anderson to long off but Jadeja finished unbeaten on 33 after clouting Tim Bresnan for another six in the final over of the innings.
But India's bowlers led a superb fightback as England lost wickets steadily at the start of their reply.
Cook fell for two, edging a catch to first slip off Umesh Yadav, Trott made a fluent 20 off 17 balls before being stumped by Dhoni off Ravichandran Ashwin and Joe Root pulled the same bowler straight to long leg.
Ian Bell's laborious innings of 13 ended when he was controversially given out by the third umpire, stumped by Dhoni off Jadeja.
England were in deep trouble at 46 for four, bamboozled by the prodigious turn of Ashwin, Jadeja and Raina.
Morgan and Bopara brought up their 50 partnership off 47 balls and at 110 for four with three overs left the hosts were scenting victory.
But Morgan, on 33, spooned Sharma to mid-wicket and Bopara pulled his next ball straight to backward square leg.
Jos Buttler was bowled by Jadeja's first ball and Bresnan was run out in a mix-up with Broad.
England needed 15 for victory from the final over and six off the last ball.
Tredwell missed with a wild heave at Ashwin and the Indian players were left to celebrate a famous victory.
Join us in congratulating the Indian team

"And as I drive on through these canyons, I'm still feeling like a crook If I don't find peace in the valley, I've got no place else to look." - Dawes, "Peace in the Valley."
Lately I've been spending a lot of time listening to artists who are recording their albums live to analog tape in lieu of the typical heavily overdubbed digital recording process. Dawes is one such band that stands out for their classic songwriting style, inspired musicianship and simplified arrangements.
Led by brothers Taylor and Griffin Goldsmith, the creative and musical direction of the California-based band seems to draw much influence from CSNY, Jackson Browne and The Band. At the heart of this folk-rock-soul band is a gifted singer-songwriter whose lyrics tell intricate stories in a communicative fashion that feels familiar and comfortable, but also unique and inspiring.
Article Photos
In 2009, Dawes recorded their debut album, "North Hills," to analog tape in a small studio in Laurel Canyon, earning them critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, who called the band's sound "authentically vintage." Since North Hills, Dawes has released "Nothing is Wrong" in 2011 and just recently unveiled "Stories Don't End" on their own label, HUB records.
Dawes is currently on tour in support of Bob Dylan in his "Never Ending Tour," a jaunt that runs through the Northeast for much of April.
On a more regional level, I've been listening to the guitar-driven sounds of New York City-based band Leroy Justice. Justice is a soulful, roots rock outfit that delivers a distinctively southern rock punch, with writing that is ultimately based in folk rock lyricism and contemporary story lines.
Singer-songwriter Jason Gallagher's soulful voice and jagged guitar picking sounds great cast against the dead-steady rhythm set by drummer Josh Karis and bassist Bradley Wegner. Next week, Justice unleashes their first major label release, "Above the Weather," featuring experimental rock-fusion guitarist Justin Mazer.
Both Mazer and Gallagher are from the Wyoming Valley, but the band plays most of its shows in NYC. The band has shared the stage with members of Gov't Mule, The Black Crowes, Levon Helm Band and recently did their own residency at the famed Brooklyn Bowlin New York City.

Looking forward to NHL prospects developing is like looking forward to getting your drivers license at 16 when you're nine years old.
(p.s. was Shero 12 in the pic?)
The importance of the draft may or may not even be important, but Dave Molinari of the PG hit a homerun in this weekend when breaking down the last six years of Shero drafting:
Ray Shero has overseen six drafts since succeeding Craig Patrick as general manager of the Penguins.
During that time, his team has selected 35 prospects.
All but 34 have established themselves as regulars in the NHL.
And, coincidentally or otherwise, those are the 34 guys the Penguins have chosen most recently.
Shero's first pick, center Jordan Staal, is the only exception.
Seth from Empty Netters found some additional research in a must-read post:
-The Kings' list of players is dotted with key parts of the Stanley Cup championship they won last week. And in the case of Simmonds and Schenn, those players were used to acquire other key parts of their championship team through trades.

Danika and Jake were so fun to film! We really enjoyed getting to know them and were glad to be a part of their big day. Everything was beautiful! The little chapel with stained glass windows, Danika's gorgeous dress, the gorgeous bright bouquets, and the cool vintage decorations… I could keep going. And the rain didn't stop Danika and Jake from throwing an awesome party! One of my favorite moments was when Danika read Jake's note in front of the bridesmaids. It was so sweet and heartfelt and it was fun to see all the bridesmaids celebrate in Danika's excitement. One of Andy's favorite moments is towards the end of this video, when Jake is dancing and singing towards the camera. We loved celebrating with you guys! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Griggs!

Ilya Rips Birthday Conference
Last week we had here a celebration for Ilya Rips' birthday. Ilya is an extraordinary mathematician with immense influence on algebra and topology. There were several startling ongoing mathematical projects that he is involved with that were discussed. One is a very ambitious project with Alexei Kanel-Belov is to get a "small cancellation theory" for rings and this has already fantastic consequences. Another is a work with Yoav Segev and Katrin Tent, on sharply 2- transitive groups, that answered a major old question with connections to groups, rings, and geometry. Happy birthday, Ilya!

JACKSON, MI – A man and woman have been charged with second-degree home invasion and assault for allegedly illegally entering a Waterloo Township home and getting into a confrontation with a man who thwarted their attempts at theft.
Jackson County District Judge R. Darryl Mazur arraigned Amber Bockelman, 26, of Jackson and Raymond Reeser, 30, of Hillsdale on Friday, June 6.
Bockelman is accused of felonious assault against a man who came upon her and Reeser as they were inside the home on Randolph Road on Saturday, May 31. A relative of the occupants, the man had seen a suspicious vehicle and open doors and went to investigate.
Reeser hit the man and an "altercation ensued," Michigan State Police reported. As he and the man struggled, Bockelman tried to strike the man with a rock, at Reeser's request, but the man disarmed her, according to the state police.
Reeser is charged with assault and battery, a misdemeanor. Felonious assault is a felony punishable by up to four years in prison. The home invasion offense is the most serious of their alleged crimes. It carries a maximum prison penalty of 15 years.
State police arrested Bockelman and Reeser, who have children together, on Wednesday in Hillsdale. Troopers searched homes in Hillsdale and Jackson and seized suspected stolen property.
Investigators believe Bockelman and Reeser have a drug habit and steal to support it.
They might later be linked to other area break-ins as an investigation continues, Detective Trooper Toby Baker earlier said.
Mazur gave Bockelman a personal recognizance bond, which means she pays nothing to leave jail as long as she complies with court orders.
Reeser's bond was set at $25,000. According to a search of Jackson County records, Reeser has a far longer history of crime than Bockelman.

Halibut, Salmon, and More Halibut!
Canadian Princess Resort - July 6, 2013
Great Catch! Ryan Acker fought hard to get his huge halibut onto the deck of the Coho Princess. He was fishing with his friend when he caught this halibut Catch of the Day.
"The highlight of this trip was weighing in my hali!" shared Ryan. His catch weighed 37lbs-7oz.
At the same time Terry Caterer was fishing on the Salmon Princess with Skipper Keith. He was with his large group visiting from West Bank, Kelowna. He caught a coho and Chinook salmon. He told dock staff that both fish put up a huge fight, but especially the Chinook. This fighter was the fish that gave Terry the salmon Catch of the Day. It weighed 14lbs-7oz. Way to go!
We have had a great time at the fishing grounds this week. Coho and Chinook salmon have been coming in regularly. We have noticed a special spike in the size of halibut guests are catching. Most have been over 25lbs and we are seeing more and more of these flat fish on the scales every day.
Here is Leon Chasseur with his 25lbs-07oz halibut. He caught it on a Boston Whaler Outrage Charter with Skipper Luke.
The sun will be out this weekend with temperatures reaching 21 degrees Celsius. There will be some strong winds today and lasting until tomorrow, but they should calm down early in the week. It's still a great time to head out to the west coast of Vancouver Island and catch some trophy fish. We have the boats waiting for you.
Tight Lines,

Unfortunately there are counterfeit OtterBox cases on the market. If you didn't pay at least $30 or you have a color that isn't on our website you could have purchased a fake. We recommend purchasing from a reputable store like RadioShack, Best Buy, Wal-Mart, your local carrier stores or OtterBox.com.
