Swinside Lodge Hotel - Hotel in Cumbria
Newlands, Keswick, CA12 5UE, Cumbria
England, United Kingdom
This small, intimate country house sits in silence at the foot of Catbells. Pheasants strut across the lawn, fells rise all around, Derwentwater, Queen of the Lakes, is a short stroll through the woods. Kathy and Mike – the real stars of the show – came back from France to take up the reins of this ever-popular hotel and refurbished from top to toe: warm colours, new sash windows, smart bedrooms and fancy new bathrooms all come as standard. Downstairs, you'll find fresh flowers and comfy sofas in the yellow drawing room, shelves of books and a jukebox in the sitting room, red walls and gilt-framed mirrors in the dining room, where windows frame views of Skiddaw. There's super food here, too, just what you want after a day on the fells, perhaps smoked salmon with a beetroot dressing, carrot and ginger soup, roast duck with a red wine jus, a warm apple sponge with a calvados syrup. Lovely bedrooms have a cool country elegance with crisp linen, golden throws and super comfy beds. Outside, a host of characters visit the garden: a woodpecker, red squirrels, roe deer. Wonderful.

So, he had better move quickly and start filling out the forms now!
So, he had better move quickly and start filling out the forms now!
Z/Z have already qualified. Happy for them! So sad my lovely country declined him Estonian citizenship, otherwise they could go to Olympics(no chance of scoring high, but still)
Eeeeeek Don Ottavio is with the Italian commentators!
He's praising Plushenko right now
Cinquanta just said that if "a skater" gets injured or withdraws during or after the team event, he won't be replaced in the individual event. To get the repalcement he has to withdraws before the ISU reunion on February 5th. I'm not sure I got this right, audio is kinda low and Cinquanta speaks like a 6years old, so confusing
And now he's criticizing a junior team at their first senior event for not landing their jumps
Now he's praising CAPPELLI/Lanotte
I'm just thinking about the number of people in althletics that have competed for Team GB at the past few Olympics, but were actually foreign born. Or the number of footballers that have played for England over the years that were foreign born.
Admittedly, most of these were from former British colonies. But some, like runner Mo Farrah (Somalia) were not.
So, if Christopher does have to go through the full procedures and it takes the full 5 years, it's already too late.
Oh well! Our loss!

Hybrid Assisted Limb Exoskeleton for Paralyzed People
It so happened in our world that paralyzed has much less likely than healthy people. But there are people who violate their existence to this sad trend. For example, Seiji Uchida, commissioned by the establishment of the exoskeleton Hybrid Assisted Limb , allowing once-real people live full, active life.
We are on our website have already told you several times about how existing workers exoskeletons (for example, XOS 2 of Raytheon Company), and about their projects (for example, the exoskeleton Atlas of the Norwegian Erik Lanuzy). Today's exoskeleton, called Hybrid Assisted Limb, can be attributed just to the fact that it is functioning successfully. Moreover, it is the most successful version of the existing similar devices.
Exoskeleton Hybrid Assisted Limb was ordered by the Japanese on behalf of Seiji Uchida. Twenty-eight years ago he was in a car accident, after which lost the ability to walk, move his legs or even feel them. But this was no end of his normal life, but a new beginning. He appears to Hybrid Assisted Limb led a fairly active life, traveling the world in a wheelchair, but with the exoskeleton on its feet again and was able to conquer those places that a couple of years ago could only dream of. Hybrid Assisted Limb created by a team of Professor Yoshiyuki Sankai in his own laboratory in the suburbs of London. Exoskeleton, this is a really new legs. No, he did not put in place the old, immovable lower extremities. Just the principles of management are similar to the principles of management of other parts of the body. The brain of a person who is put on Hybrid Assisted Limb, gives with the natural bio-electric signals commands and a special device interprets and converts them into motion mechanisms of the exoskeleton.
For greater reliability, Seiji Uchida, yet uses crutches, but is planning to give up – you just get some experience. And the first object, which he conquered with the help of the exoskeleton Hybrid Assisted Limb, was the castle-monastery of Mont Saint-Michel on the Normandy coast of France. Uchida and Sankai dream to begin mass production of the exoskeletons Hybrid Assisted Limb, to tens and hundreds of thousands of paralyzed people around the world again rose to their feet, even in the artificial.

There are different takes and tones to the headlines greeting America this morning bearing the news that, as several papers word it, Obama "clinches" the Democratic nomination.
There's this sequence of sorts:
(New York) Daily News: "HISTORY"
New York Post: "DESTINY"
Anniston (AL) Star: "FINALLY"
Philadelphia Daily News: "OVER THE HILL"
There's the celebratory:
Chicago Sun-Times: "WON!"
Those that prompt that thrill-up-the-leg feeling:
San Francisco Chronicle: " 'America, this is our moment'"
The forward-looking:
Modesto (CA) Bee: "OBAMA V. MCCAIN"
The backward-looking:
Wall Street Journal: "Obama Clinches Nomination, Capping Historic, Bitter Contest"
The uncertain:
Detroit Free Press: "He's in, but she's not out"
The playing-it-safe (attribution to the candidate himself):
(South Florida) Sun-Sentinel: "OBAMA: I'M THE ONE"
And, of course, the shamelessly self-involved:
Denver Post: "ON TO DENVER"

If your child is a picky eater, you might loathe mealtimes or worry that he isn't getting the nutrients he needs for healthy growth. While it's normal for children to dislike certain foods, about 20 percent of young children are picky eaters, the Children's Physician Network reports. Most picky eaters grow out of the behavior as they get older, but in the meantime, new strategies can help encourage your child to eat new foods.
Entertaining Presentation
The more attractive and entertaining your picky eater's plate is, the more likely he'll be to try new foods. Serve new foods cut into small pieces and arranged into a design on your child's plate. Turn fruits and vegetables into a rainbow or cut new foods into shapes with small cookie cutters. Offer your child dip, such as hummus or low-fat dressing. Many children are more willing to eat a variety of foods if they can dip them into a food they already enjoy. Give new foods exciting names to encourage your child to try them. Refer to broccoli florets as trees and to baby carrots as swords.
Little Chefs and Gardeners
Invite your child into the kitchen to help you prepare new foods. Children who help choose and cook foods are more likely to eat them. Ask your child to select a new vegetable for your family to try with dinner. Allow him to take part in simple tasks such as stirring batter, tearing lettuce and spreading pizza sauce. The pride that comes with cooking might just entice him to try the new foods you serve. Grow your own food as well, the AskDr.Sears website recommends. Your child will likely be more interested in trying new foods if she took part in growing and caring for them.
Model Healthy Eating
Eat the same foods that you want your child to try. When you introduce a new food into your child's diet, let him see you eating it as well. Serve yourself the same new foods you offer your child, and then sit down at the table and let him watch you eating them. Comment on how tasty the new foods are, but don't require that your child try them. Just watching you enjoy the new food is likely to motivate him to take a bite.
Keep Trying
Put a new food on your child's plate and then step back and leave him alone. It can take multiple exposures to a new food before your child is willing to eat them. Instead of putting too much pressure on him, keep putting the new food on his plate. Once he gets used to seeing new foods, he will be more willing to try them, particularly if he knows that you'll keep serving them whether he eats them or not. If he tastes a new food and decides he doesn't like it, keep serving it anyway. It can take several tastes before your child decides that he does enjoy the taste of the new food.
Adult Picky Eaters
Children aren't the only ones that can be picky when it comes to certain foods. When adults are picky eaters, it's referred to as selective-eating disorder, MayoClinic.com reports. Selective-eating disorder can cause nutritional deficiencies and high anxiety when it comes to new foods. The same tips that work for children can work for adults. Continue serving the same foods and encourage your loved one to choose his own side dishes. If the adult in your life avoids social situations and restaurants because of his food aversions, seek medical attention because this can be a sign of a more serious eating disorder.

Special effort needed to bring home glory
Published 11/12/2012 | 08:52
THE OUTGOING Secretary of the County Board has said it will take a special effort from all involved to bring success to Sligo in 2013.
In his report to the upcoming annual Convention he declares: "We have every reason to be optimistic, provided we all support the players and management to achieve our goals."
Reviewing the year in comprehensive detail, Mr. Duffy said the county senior team narrowly missed out on promotion from Division 3.
He sincerely thanked Paul Taylor and Dessie Sloyan for their efforts on and off the pitch over two decades following their decision to step down from the senior management team.
Mr. Duffy joined with all Sligo followers in wishing Kevin Walsh, P.J. Langton and Tommy Craddock well as they prepare for the new season.
He recalled that Sligo senior and under-21 teams reached Connacht finals, but unfortunately lost both.
The Junior team made their exit from the Connacht championship, losing to Galway in the preliminary round after extra-time in Tubbercurry.
Mr. Duffy described as "a huge disappointment for everybody involved "the defeat on a scoreline of 1-6 to 0-6 to Mayo of the Sligo minors in the provincial semi-final.
The team prepared very well under Tommy Breheny and his backroom staff, seldom performed to their undoubted capabilities.
The outgoing Secretary said:
"The fact that the losers had no second chance to redeem themselves was even more disappointing.
"This is something that must be looked at in the province."
With so much resources going into team preparations, it was essential that every team gets more than one game.
Elsewhere in his report, Mr. Duffy said that county hurling and handball were well organised by a small, but very dedicated, group within the county.
Scor had also grown in popularity, particularly Scor na Nog.
The County Scor PRO, Peter Farrell, recently addressed a County Board meeting to seek fuller participation from clubs. The outgoing Secretary said he hoped his efforts and those of the County Scor Committee will lead to increased interest in promoting the cultural aspects of the Association.
Mr. Duffy added that Cumann na mBunscoil continue to promote native games in primary schools, with great support from the Coaching and Games Committee.
As founding Secretary of Cumann na mBunscoil in Sligo many years ago, he was very proud of what had developed from humble beginnings.

For 92-year-old Ray Matwitch, going downhill is a good thing, and the faster, the better.
Matwitch, a resident at Shepherd of the Valley in Howland, was an avid skier, taking his last run down the slopes at the age of 72.
"I always liked the snow and winter sports," Matwitch said. "Ice skating with my wife and kids on Duck Creek, snowmobiling. I'd hook up sleds in a line to the back so the children and neighborhood kids got to have fun also."
Article Photos
Special to Howland Community News
Ray Matwitch, of Howland, enjoyed a dream come true last month when he was the recipient of a Second Wind Dream arranged by Shepherd of the Valley — Howland and Brandywine Ski Resort. Pictured is Matwitch skiing downhill at the resort with the aid of a bi-ski and one of his instructors, Mark Gietz.
For Matwitch, his dream of schussing down the slopes again became a reality when the SOV-Howland Second Wind Dream Team arranged a trip to Brandywine Ski Resort. While he may not have tackled a half-pipe or Black Diamond Trail, with the assistance of Mark Gietz and Jason Chonko from 3 Trackers of Ohio, Matwitch was able to ride on a bi-ski, adapted ski that requires the skier to assist with steering. Matwitch also was hooked up with tether ropes while instructor Chonko called out instructions as needed from the hill.
"I did like how they explained everything to me," Matwitch said.
Matwitch 's dream was realized through the financial support of Joe Hueber from Boston Mills/ Brandywine and the expertise of Mark Gietz, president of 3 Trackers of Ohio Brandywine. Hueber covered the cost for Ray and two Shepherd staff and the Lodge store provided a substantial discount.
"I watched him going down the hill," said Traci Luther of Shepherd of the Valley, "and it was very impressive."
Matwitch had five runs and no wipe outs, Luther said.

Beverly Hills 'Housewives' admit more surgery

Slide show 1: "Plastic housewives: Beverly Hills vs. O.C."
Slide show 2: "Look who's coming to 'Real Housewives' "
[caption id="attachment_23228" align="alignright" width="361" caption="Fernanda Rocha, on left, and Peggy Tanous (Click photo for slide show.)"][/caption]
The women of the reality TV show "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" have 'fessed up to more plastic surgery.
In the process, they've become more like their counterparts in the "Real Housewives of Orange County," who are renowned as enthusiasts for cosmetic doctors' artistry.
Previously, the Orange County cast had appeared to be far more reliant on breast implants than the Beverly Hills group.
But with the latest revelations, the O.C. women have only one pair of breast implants more than the Beverly Hills ensemble.
In other types of surgical enhancements, the Beverly Hills housewives outpace O.C.'s cast. (See the new listing below.)
Among last year's cast in Orange County, five of the six women had implants. At first, early in the "Beverly Hills" season, only two of the cast -- Camille Grammer and Lisa Vanderpump -- had been identified as having breast implants.
But in an interview on Sirius XM Radio, Beverly Hills housewives Adrienne Maloof and Taylor Armstrong acknowledged that they had implants. In addition, Kim Richards said she previously had implants, but later had them removed.
In terms of wrinkle-fighting and face-enhancing injections, the Beverly Hills cast edges out the Orange County crew. All six women on the Beverly Hills show apparently use Botox or injectable fillers. Five of six women in last season's Orange County cast did so.
The Beverly Hills women outdo the Orange County cast in nose jobs.

The balance might change next season. At that point, two new Orange County women, Peggy Tanous and Fernanda Rocha, reportedly will join the O.C. show. For photos and more details about them, see the slide show "Look who's coming to 'Real Housewives.' "
Below is an updated summary of the cosmetic treatments for women appearing on the Beverly Hills and Orange County shows. For photos and more details about them, see the slide show "Plastic housewives: Beverly Hills vs. O.C."
In the current season:
- Taylor Armstrong, 38, said, "Just start from the top, right? You should've seen what I looked like before - oh my God! I mean, scary! So yeah ... filler [lips], Botox. And I had my boobs done." Her admission of the breast implants is news. The previous post said she had "filler in lips and temples. Perhaps Botox too."
- Adrienne Maloof, 49, the wife of plastic surgeon Dr. Paul S. Nassif of Beverly Hills, said she got "Botox, fillers, boobs" and a nose job. She added, "No lips ... No cheek bones." Her admission of the breast implants is news. Up to that point, celebrity watchers apparently had not seen enough of Maloof to spot the breast work. Her husband had discussed her cosmetic treatments, but didn't mention the implants, so the previous post said only that she had "Botox and facial fillers. Possible brow lift and nose job."
- Camille Grammer, 41, said, "obviously I've had a breast augmentation and...Botox absolutely...just a crock full of Botox." We knew that, and we suspect she still hasn't acknowledged all the work she has had done. The previous post said Grammer had "Botox and lip fillers. Brow lift and eyelid surgery. Possible nose job. Breast implants."
- Kim Richards, 46, said, "I did a little Botox at one point with my sister, and I did have implants that I had taken out. They made them too big, and I couldn't see my feet. Not that I loved my toes, but I would like to glance at them now and then." The previous post said Richards had "Botox in forehead, filler in lips. Nose job."
- Kyle Richards, 41, said she got a nose job and gets Botox shots, which she kept secret from her husband. She said, "I did have my nose done. I have done Botox. My husband doesn't know, but he does now ... But these are my own boobs!" Unlike her husband, we already knew about the Botox. The previous post estimated that she had "Botox injections as well as lip filler to plump up her lips. Nose job."
- Lisa Vanderpump, 50, said, "I have a bucket of Botox in my face!" We already knew that -- and more. The previous post said she had "Reported nose job, breast implants, Botox and facial fillers."
Here's the cosmetic medicine line-up for the Orange County cast of last season and next:
- Vicki Gunvalson, 48, implants, Botox and Juvéderm.
- Tamra Barney, 43, implants, Botox and intense pulse light treatments. She has downsized her implants and is thinking of having them removed.
- Gretchen Rossi, 33, no implants, Botox at some point. Possibly nose job.
- Alexis Bellino, 33, reported implants. Injections of Botox and Juvederm filler.
On the show last season, but not next season:
- Jeana Keough, 54, implants.
- Lynne Curtin, 54, implants, facelift, Botox.
Reportedly on the show next season – cosmetic treatments unknown:
- Peggy Tanous, 41, of Irvine, a model and infomercial host who reportedly will be a regular cast member. Pretty obviously her lips are plumped up with fillers or, conceivably, implants.
- Fernanda Rocha, 34, of Laguna Beach, a personal trainer who co-owns the Art of Fitness & Day Spa there. She reportedly will appear in several shows.

THE launch date of academic Mamphela Ramphele's political party could be on Tuesday — pre-empting President Jacob Zuma's opening of Parliament next Thursday.
News of her political party has ignited a fire in academic circles, with lecturers and intellectuals excited about the prospects that it will be launched in time to contest next year's general elections.
While the 2014 polls are seen as the first step in planting the party on the political landscape, the 2016 municipal elections are regarded as a real opportunity for it to win a substantial slice of the electorate.
The initial plan was for Dr Ramphele to lead the way, and then hand over to a younger team ahead of the 2019 elections.
People advising her on the establishment of her party would not confirm the launch date on Wednesday, saying only it would be "soon".
The launch was initially planned for the University of Pretoria, but the venue has since been changed to Constitution Hill, said a source close to Dr Ramphele.
She has said she is not denying speculation that she is about to launch a political party.
"I would like to place it on record that I have been having conversations with South Africans from all walks of life about the state of democracy in South Africa, canvassing their views about ways in which South Africans can work together to tackle our pressing social, economic and political challenges," Dr Ramphele said last week.
These talks were in line with the national dialogue she was seeking to promote through her latest book, Conversations with my Sons and Daughters, she said.
"I have always been clear in articulating my views on matters of public importance and will speak on my own behalf about any decisions I might take about my future engagements," Dr Ramphele said.
On Wednesday at the Mining Indaba in Cape Town, she answered questions about her party with, "Just wait patiently."
She is expected to capitalise on her grassroots activism, mainly driven by the Citizens Movement — a nongovernmental organisation that, among other things, is aimed at cultivating an active citizenry.

By the time the Pens wiped the vomit off their jersey, they were headed back to Pittsburgh down 2-0. With some help from The Shift™ by Orpik, the Pens clawed back to make it 2-1. The Red Wings were lights-out in Game 4, setting the stage for Game 5.
The Pens pushed out to a 2-0 lead in the game. But it wasn't comfortable. The Red Wings had the Cup in their peripheral vision all game. They eventually take a 3-2 lead.
As the clock waned, Pens fans were stunned, but they hadn't lost hope. A frantic scramble at the end of the game with Fleury pulled set the stage for a goal that has the same "I remember where I was" feeling as 9/11.
In the third overtime, an errant stick caught Rob Scuderi in the face. Blood city. The Pens get put on a 4-minute power play. Sergei Gonchar, sitting on the bench for morale support, throws his legs over the boards and his blades clack against the worn ice surface.
Petr Sykora, who, in one of the earlier overtimes, told television analyst Pierre McGuire that he would score the game-winner, literally stepped up to the plate:
The Penguins shocked everyone in Game 1, winning in New York. Game 2 saw Adam Graves deliver the slash heard 'round the world on Mario Lemieux.

In Theaters: May 10, 2013 Limited
On DVD: Jul 1, 2013
Rated: PG-13,
Running time: 1 hr. 39 min.
Distributor: Magnolia Pictures
Documentary, Special Interest
Directed By: Maiken Baird , Michelle Major
Richard Williams was born and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana where he was left traumatized by having a railroad spike driven through his leg for refusing to behave deferentially towards a gang of white racists. Understandably, that experience played a significant role in shaping the youngster into the highly-ambitious and fiercely-overprotective father he would later become.
In fact, well before his daughters Venus and Serena were even born, he hand wrote a 78-page game plan for their lives. Its foundation was laid in childhood, where they would not only be homeschooled but forged into professional tennis players.
Nevertheless, having been prepared by their dad for just such a reaction to the presence on center court, both young ladies miraculously managed to rise in stature on the circuit. All of the above is chronicled in captivating fashion in Venus and Serena, an intimate biopic co-directed by Michelle Major and Maiken Baird who were allowed to follow the pair around with a camera for over a year.
Besides detailing the ups-and-downs of the turbulent, 2011 tennis season, this riveting and revealing documentary treats the audience to an intimate look at the close-knit sisters with the help of home movies from their adolescence. Featuring appearances by Chris Rock, Bill Clinton and Serena's ex-boyfriend Common, this flick is at its best when Richard Williams is given the floor in archival footage to make audacious predictions about turning not one but two of his daughters into world-class tennis players.

I want to order a 13# and a 11#. Since IDPA will not allow steel guide rods, do you take the end off the factory guide rod and use it as a non-captured assembly?

Which tip?
Where do get the guide rods? I am still looking on the internet.
July 17, 2010, 09:49 PM
The end that is towards the muzzle. No guarantee that it will go back on or not break but it should come off with little effort.
Red Cent
July 17, 2010, 10:04 PM
I have searched and searched. I cannot find any guide rods (plastic) or a 11# and a 13# assembly. I guessI can pop the factory and buy the springs.
Help please.
July 23, 2010, 10:38 PM
I use the polymer guide rods from Jager. They work well with ISMI recoil springs.
Hope this helps.
July 24, 2010, 03:47 AM
Why are you wanting to change recoil springs?
July 24, 2010, 09:27 AM
Why are you wanting to change recoil springs?
Good question. I've used Glocks for about 13 years and a friend of mine since they were imported (1986 or 87) and only once had to change a recoil spring and guide. That was when the guy broke the guide putting it back together wrong. I was a LE firearms instructor and oversaw several hundred Glocks so we're not talking a small sampling.
July 24, 2010, 11:27 AM
the factory springs in most models should cycle about anything but super light loads...you could trim a little off a factory I guess? They are less than $10...I wasn't aware of the guiderod rule....I assume that is if it's not factory? Anyway I use Wolf one piece non-captured guidrods and have an assortment of tuning and replacement springs...I trust a solid one-piece design...and I use wolf springs so that just makes sense...I've never had a failure of a factory $7 assembly but they do tend to get chipped and chewed up looking....still....for $7 you get a whole new one. The only one I've seen broken was a GLOCK 30 with the dual recoil assembly...a customer decided to strip it down and tried to re-assemble it before I got there and "sproing" it went (cracked the base off having failed to seat it properly) GLOCK sent a replacement free. It was a little disturbing how easy it broke though...so although I've never had one fail...I still preffer the wolf one piece...which their springs fit perfectly so that's nice.
I shoot factory weight in my 21SF and +1 in my 23. I will order the lower power calibration set for the 21 if my 21 fails to cycle my target loads with the 17# spring...but I havent gotten a stainless barrel to shoot lead through it with yet so it hasn't been an issue (200gr SWC with a whole 5 gr. of Unique) it's a nice paper puncher and you can deffinately let anyone shoot it all day! It ran fine in a 5" 1911 with 18.5# spring...but then the 21's slide probably has more mass....so who knows...time will tell. Years ago I went up in spring power several pounds in my old 21 and found it increased recoil and decreased my accuracy....weird huh? You never know till you play I guess.

July 24, 2010, 12:35 PM
Setting it up for IDPA. Just received a Wolff Calibration pack of 15#, 14, and 12. I will have to use them uncaptured. Got a Ghost Rocket connector with ot stop, increased power trigger spring, aand reduced power striker spring. With a lot of polishing, got a 2# trigger. Shooting 147s Berry plated bullets at about 850fps to make power factor. Wanting the flattest cycle I can get. No :) muzzle flip.

Daniel Wilson, 39, was calm and compliant on his journey from death row at the Ohio State Penitentiary in Youngstown to the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville, said prisons spokeswoman Andrea Carson.
Wilson is scheduled to die by lethal injection at 10 a.m. Wednesday for the May 4, 1991, murder of 24-year-old Carol Lutz.
He was expected to receive friends and family between 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, while he dines on the extensive assortment of foods he selected as his last meal.
His menu includes a well-done porter house steak with steak sauce, a baked potato with sour cream and bacon bits, salad with lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, green peppers, carrots and French dressing, corn on the cob with butter, grapes, macaroni and cheese, dinner rolls and Cool Ranch Doritos with a jar of salsa. For dessert, Wilson will have strawberry ice cream and strawberry cheesecake -- both with real strawberries -- and he'll wash it all down with a 2-liter of Dr. Pepper with ice. He has also requested one tea bag.
Gov. Ted Strickland denied Wilson's plea for clemency Monday. In a written statement, Strickland said he made his decision after reviewing evidence and testimony presented at Wilson's clemency hearing in April before the Ohio Adult Parole Authority.
Wilson argued at the hearing that his mother abandoned him at a young age and that his childhood was marred by his father's consistent abuse and torture.
Prosecutors countered that Wilson had ample opportunities to release his victim before torching the car with Carol Lutz inside.
Lutz's parents, Martha and Jerry Lutz, and her brother, Doug Lutz, will witness Wilson's execution Wednesday, Carson said. Also present will be Wilson's cousin Rodney Mele, friend Brent Mowry and Wilson's attorney, Alan Rossman.

Ray Rice got a vote of support from the owner of the Baltimore Ravens that may have even trumped the one given to the Super Bowl-winning head coach.
Despite the Pro Bowl running back's arrest last month on charges of assault and domestic violence, "Ray will be here," owner Steve Bisciotti told the Baltimore Sun at the NFL meetings in Orlando Monday.
MORE: Video of Rice incident | Ravens' arrests | Goodell, union to meet next month | Death of the NFL? | 20 draft sleepers
"This is a singular moment six years after we drafted him,'' Bisciotti added. "It's embarrassing for him and his fiancée. It is especially hard to see somebody that is proud of his reputation have to take this kind of public relations hit."
Bisciotti's definitive statement appears to settle speculation circulating since the Feb. 15 arrest in Atlantic City that the Ravens might cut ties with Rice, especially after a subpar 2013 season.
"I don't think there's a more admired kid that we drafted than Ray Rice," the owner said of the back who was drafted in 2008, head coach John Harbaugh's first season. "We're embarrassed and we're disappointed but no more than he is. I think what you have to do, when you look at the character of the man, is to see how he handles it and how he handles himself going forward to determine whether this is a bad person doing bad things or a good person doing something bad.''
Bisciotti also told the Sun that he extended Harbaugh's contract an extra year, through 2017. Harbaugh had also received an extension after winning the Super Bowl after the 2012 season; this time, he rewarded him following his first season missing the playoffs, when they went 8-8.
"When we were down in Florida (for organizational meetings), I just told him, 'I just want you to know that I think just as highly of you after this disappointment,'" Bisciotti told the Sun.

Lenovo IdeaPad Y50
Average of 5 scores (from 6 reviews)
Reviews for the Lenovo IdeaPad Y50
Entry price, high-end gaming. Lenovo's latest Y Series has the best of both worlds: Sleek, thin looks with exceptional performance for a very fair starting price of $1050. Though the notebook is marketed as an entry-level portable gaming machine, we believe even serious gamers should take a look at what the new Y50 has to offer.
Source: Laptop Media
We've already said that the most impressive feature of Y50 is its looks, which, besides representing aggressive design, contributes to the low weight ( for a gaming computer), combined with a slim body. Although the latter does not seem in favor of high frequencies for computing load, the video card holds up well and was able to work at maximum speed for a very long period of time. The screen, with its 282 pixels per inch and 4K resolution, is a big plus if you play light games, but not particularly great if you love the latest titles with heavy graphics. In the latter case, of course, you can simply reduce the resolution, but your heart will hardly allow this, given that you stand before an Ultra HD display.

Save for the screen and somewhat limited computing horsepower, the Lenovo Y50 is a very good package for its $1,519 or £999 (about AU$1,631) price tag. In a field of laptops that focus on filling out an internal spec sheet and stuffing it into a flimsy plastic chassis, the Lenovo Y50 is a breath of fresh air in good design. However, self-ascribed "hardcore" gamers that want a bit more oomph from their total desktop replacement should consider the $1,999 Gigabyte P35W v2. The GTX 870M-backed machine will simply run games better regardless, and it packs better battery battery life too boot.

The Lenovo Y50 delivers a lot of gaming oomph for a relatively inexpensive $1,249. You'll be able to play most titles at smooth frame rates in a handsome and portable 5.4-pound chassis. I also like that this rig delivers more battery life than other gaming notebooks in its class, It's just too bad that the screen on our configuration didn't wow as much as the other specs.

Lenovo's Y50 Touch is a well balanced system that is equally at home when used as a gaming system or as a general purpose performance system. The styling is agressive but not over the top like some gaming laptops on the market. The size and weight are quite good given the level of performance that it has. One downside for some is that it no longer features a DVD drive like past Y series laptops.

The Lenovo IdeaPad Y50 has a nice brushed metal design that makes it look really nice and professional. Interior wise, the Lenovo IdeaPad Y50 is equipped with an Intel i7 processor with a clocking speed of 3.2GHz. This is more than enough for most users. The secondary graphic card is very impressive as well. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M is one the best graphic cards you can get today. Gamers will be happy with it as even modern games can be played with maximum settings.
The 15.6 inch display is large so that the font and such will not seem too small. It has a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels which is just moderate. There are better screens out there, but the Lenovo IdeaPad Y50's display is sufficient. The laptop weighs 2.4 kg, making it heavy by today's standards. However, the Lenovo IdeaPad Y50 is not aimed at mobility.
All in all, the Lenovo IdeaPad Y50 is an excellent entry level laptop for gamers who don't want to pay an arm and a leg for a high end gaming laptop. It is also apt for casual users provided they are able to accept the lack of mobility.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M: Upper mid-range graphics card from the GeForce GTX 800M series.
With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
4700HQ: Haswell-based quad-core processor clocked at 2.4 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.4 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4600 GPU and a dual channel DDR3 memory controller.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

Nokia job listing hints at Android in the future
0. phoneArena 30 Nov 2012, 12:42 posted on
This could be nothing, but it could be that Nokia is looking for a backup plan in case Windows Phone doesn't pan out. At least that's the best guess for why Nokia had posted a job listing that made it sound like Android might be in the future...

Nokia lumia 800/900/920 smart phone case designs are about to be retired. It would be a super smart move on Nokia's part to Put Android Jelly bean in the Nokia Lumia 920 before they retire that case design. Microsoft Windows 8 could still be their main smart phone flagship OS but Nokia would make fantastic profit off of selling their Old lumia 920 case
design running Android Jelly bean. I am a Nokia and Microsoft windows smart phone Fan
and want Nokia to do this to make enough money to stay in business to continue to make great Windows smart phones and even make Android smart phone fans happy. Everybody
knows that if Nokia put new electronic components in the Nokia lumia 900's case for instance to make it dual core and give it a 4.3 high def screen like on the HTC 8x has and put Android Jelly bean on some of them and Microsoft Windows 8 on others WOW! FOLKS Nokia would kick the Asses of all other smart phones manufacturers, Also. Nokia could put android jelly been on the last batch of Nokia Lumia 920 smart phones before it retires that smart phones case design Nokia CEO. Mr Elop is a pretty smart GUY to do this would give him glory and the Company needed new sales. it would just be an expansion of the Nokia smart phones line.

I would be greatly interested in a Nokia device running Android. Actually Nokia has some of the finest hardware in the market with a lackluster mobile OS on top (IMHO).

Nokia with android !! Samsung Watch out...
74. gazmatic (Posts: 795; Member since: 06 Sep 2012)
Android sucks. Sorry but it does. I've been following android since the froyo update and the only positive thing it has done is push the limits of what hardware we can put in a phone but it still sucks when compared to symbian, maemo, meego and webos. Popular doesn't mean better. Android is laggy, buggy and the hoops one has to jump through just to get a smooth performance is ridiculous. Rooting, overclocking, daily dalvik cache clearings, periodic factory resets, custom roms, etc. 99% of the population doesn't know how to do half that stuff. Nokia is better off with jolla sailfish
77. kach22 (Posts: 153; Member since: 04 Nov 2011)
99 % of the population doesn't need to do what you are doing with your Android phone and rework their phone os.
99% including me is pretty much happy with the way the phone came out of the box.
A big group of people including me is still pretty much amazed with the smooth way the phone functions even after months of heavy use.

You must have gotten a bad phone or went with bad models, I don't see any of that. What phone did you have that was that bad?
80. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
see i wouldnt go as far as saying it sucks, there only ever 2 extremes on here either its perfection or sucks. as for lag etc every device is suspect to lag, i dont care what people say about theres no lag as its bs. depending on what king of user you are lag is a posibility with any os. buggy id agree with as google are pushing updates out to fix these.
But to say it sucks is over the top, its a great os but i would say it is better for those who have an insight into tech, the none tech savvy wont get the most out of it. and rooting is just a work around, i do wish some on here would stop holding this as an advantage and evidence that android is better just because of this.....its the same as jailbreaking all are just work arounds to get past the limitations and the general users wont be looking at doing this.
i agree nokia would be better off going meego before android or even use symbian for there mid range devices, its as functional as any other os if not more
anyway android doesnt suck, maybe like said before you got a bad phone or were installing 3rd party apps
76. Loubielou (Posts: 508; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
Febuary 11th was a bad day for new Chairman saying"Symbian is Dead" even though Mr Elop thought Windows was going to be Succesful but since he as made Nokia going on a Decline not Progressing momentum,he should have waited to see if Windows was going to be good for Nokia,Android is more like Symbian thats why i an loads of others have made the Right switch
82. gazmatic (Posts: 795; Member since: 06 Sep 2012)
For people wondering what phone I have: nokia n9, nokia n900, samsung galaxy s3, nokia 2690, samsung captivate glide. As you can see the specs of the nokias I have are crap. No comparison to the androids. The n900 battery is s**t and it moves slow at times but its capabilities are out of this world. First and only phone I have successfully quad boot with 4 different os including windows xp and ice cream sandwich. I installed jelly bean but it was never functional so I deleted it. Going from my n9 meego interface to the samsung galaxy s3 android jelly bean 4.1.1 you miss a lot of fluidity, function and performance. My n9 and jelly bean gives me less headaches than the galaxy. The captivate glide is still on gingerbread. Haven't even bother updating it to ice cream sandwich. And the 2690 is a cheap knock around that is only useful with opera mini installed. The galaxy s3 should pawn all my phones but it doesn't. I only have 42 apps installed and it is as slow as my n900. Thats a shame especially when you compare the specs. I shouldn't have to do daily dalvik cache clearings or root my phone or do a weekly factory install just so that a smart phone could run as smooth as a dumb phone.
83. Aeires (unregistered)
Sounds like the wealth of problems you've seen were self caused. The S3 is a beast of a phone, if you have to wipe dalvik, you've likely rooted it which totally takes your argument off the table. I know people who have that phone and don't see any of the things you report so I'm thinking you rooted it as well. Rooting phones can end up with all kinds of different results and problems, all self induced by rooting.
Quad boot? Really? And you expected perfection with that?
Captivate Glide wasn't a bad phone, but if you never updated it how can you say it sucked? You should have updated it to ICS and then made that judgement.
84. gazmatic (Posts: 795; Member since: 06 Sep 2012)
My galaxy s3 is legit. No rooting. No custom roms. No dalvik cache clearings. No overclock. The android jelly bean 4.1.1 is directly from samsung. When I mention to people that my phone lags, randomly reboots and rearranges my icons those are the recommendations I get from people. I'm saying I shouldn't have to do all that crap just so my phone doesn't slow down and crash. It is my n900 that was quad boot. Gingerbread is more stable than ice cream sandwich. Android compared to apple and windows is bugs cockroaches and spiders. I was going to go vanilla android but... Not until it is optimised for single and dual core. One thing I like about my galaxy is the battery but then it has more capacity so I guess thats why. I'll stick with nokia as long as they dont do android. Jolla sailfish is where it's at. Real optimization and multitasking.

20-Shawnee (7-0)
St. Anthony won its 40th straight game and improved to 7-0 this season, but it was not as easy as the majority of those previous 39 victories.
The Friars trailed St. Benedict's for most of the game in the New Year's Jump Off on Sunday at Hackensack High School before escaping with a 51-50 victory.
St. Anthony remains on top of The Star-Ledger Top 20 rankings.
The Jump Off event, held before a packed house, featured four games and five Top 20 teams. The fans who paid $10 to get in certainly got their money's worth as one game was decided by one point, two were decided by two points and another by four.
Plainfield remains at No. 2 after it held off 10th-ranked Hudson Catholic, 59-55, at the Jump Off.
Teaneck, No. 4, needed a three-point buzzer shot by Joel Hernandez to send its game with No. 6 St. Patrick into overtime, then Hernandez won it with two foul shots with one second left in OT, 65-63.
The opening game provided some thrills as well as the host school rallied from 16 points down at the half to beat Englewood, 59-55. With the victory, Hackensack makes its Top 20 debut. Hackensack is 6-2 with both losses against Teaneck.
South Jersey is represented by five schools, including unbeaten Paul VI (5-0) at No. 13, Eastern (4-0) at No. 14 St. Augustine (5-0) at No. 16 and Shawnee (7-0) at No. 20.
All told, there are nine unbeaten teams in the Top 20.
On tap today is No. 6 St. Pat's vs. No. 9 Linden.
On Saturday, as part of The Scholarship For Inner-City Children Showcase at Kean, No. 5 Seton Hall Prep will battle No. 8 St. Joseph of Metuchen.

text: Japanese martial artist Asano Nitobe served as a bodyguard to the geneticist Doctor Oka as early as 1945, and fled Nagasaki shortly before it was struck by an atomic bomb. Oka and Asano both became part of the enclave known as the Council (I). After Oka's death, Asano remained loyal to the Council and its leader Anatol Mykros, and eventually trained and befriended Manhunter Paul Kirk. When Kirk betrayed the Council, Asano was forced to duel his friend until learning that the Council had gone rogue and murdered Oka. Asano joined forces with Manhunter, Interpol agent Christine St. Clair, Kenyan weapons dealer Kolu Mbeya, and the Batman, in an attack on the power-mad Council. Following Kirk's death, Asano and Christine embarked on a worldwide quest to execute the Council's Manhunter clones. Recently, they discovered that one clone had survived and joined the corporate hero team known as the Power Company. After a clash with the new Manhunter and a team-up with the Company, Asano and Christine decided to give the clone the benefit of doubt and let him live... for now. Asano Nitobe is a deadly martial artist, the last master of ninjitsu and, arguably, the last ninja. He has also trained the meta-human criminal Freeway. In battle, Asano adopts the traditional mask of his ninja clan.

St. Clair County Coroner Dennis Russell told The Daily Home that the body was tentatively idenfied, but was being transferred to the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences office in Huntsville with dental records for comparison and identification.
Officials would not say whether they believe the body, which was burned beyond recognition, was a male or a female.
St. Clair County Sheriff Terry Surles said Friday the remains were found in the trunk of a Dodge Charger, also severely burned, on Camp Winnataska Road near Prescott. He said the vehicle was seen in that location on Saturday, Oct. 3, but was not reported at that time.
Anyone with information is asked to call the St. Clair County Sheriff's Department at 205-884-3333 or 205-884-6840.
