New musical will focus on aging process
Pete Townshend once wrote "I hope I die before I get old."
Now the 64-year-old guitarist and songwriter for British rock band The Who says he is at work on a new stage musical about the aging process.
Townshend says "Floss" will focus on a pub-rock musician and his troubled relationship with his wife, who runs a riding stable.
He says he wants to use the angry medium of rock 'n' roll to take on issues of aging and mortality facing the baby boom generation.
Songs from "Floss" will feature on a new Who album due out next year,
Townshend says he is in talks with New York producers about staging the show in 2011.
Townshend's previous "rock operas" include "Quadrophenia" and "Tommy." Both started life as albums and later became films and stage musicals.

By John Wilbert/NEMS Daily Journal
SHANNON – The passing game wasn't exactly there early on for the fourth-ranked Golden Wave, but with a stout defense and an excellent kicker, the Tupelo High squad has enough right there to beat just about anyone.
The Wave forced six turnovers and Drew White booted three field goals in the Wave's 23-8 defeat of fifth-ranked Shannon on the road Friday night.
The victory evens the Wave's record at 2-2 on the year.
"The things that stand out about them are their defense and their kicker," said Red Raiders head coach Chad Cook, whose team fell to 2-2. "We turn the ball over and they don't even get a first down twice and they get six points."
The Wave scored 13 points off turnovers.
The first points of the contest came four plays after a forced fumble. White converted a 48-yard kick to open up the second quarter.
And the only pass – out of nine attempts – that Wave senior quarterback Luke Hobson completed in the first half was a 33-yard strike to Josh Hamilton on a fourth-and-7 with 5:38 remaining before halftime.
"I told them what route they were going to run," Cook said about his defense. "That's why I called timeout. I told them they were going to run a vertical post and we just went brain dead."
And then by spreading the Raiders out, Hobson was a perfect 4 of 4 passing in the third period, using three different receivers to amass 54 yards.
The Wave, however, scored only three points in that quarter, answering Red Raiders senior running back Bodarius Taylor's 3-yard scoring run.
But the first minute of the final quarter saw Hobson, on a third-and-8, find Hamilton for a 16-yard TD.
Said Wave head coach David Bradberry, "They had eight in the box, so you ought to be able to throw some – you would like to be able to throw some. … And the time or two that he (Hobson) threw the curl or some middle routes in there, our guys did a pretty job of pass protecting, to give him a chance to pat it (the ball) about twice and wait on that guy to get open and then he throws a strike."

"An extremely clarifying book. . . . The author demonstrates that artistic and historical sense cannot be brought out of the remains of [important sites] without putting the artistic analysis first. . . . A great contribution to Olmec-Maya scholarship." Latin America in Books
This is the first comprehensive treatment and pictorial record of one of the greatest bodies of sculpture in the Pre-Columbian world. Parson's work orders the Late Pre-Classic sculptures of highland and Pacific coastal Guatemala into chronological and stylistic groupings, relating them to the other artistic and iconographic movements at the time the Maya style was coalescing.

"This is a major contribution to Pre-Columbian studies…a tight theme handled in excellent scholarly detail. The monograph presents much material that is new and certainly looks at it in a new way. The West Mexican-Ecuador/Peru contacts are of high importance in New World culture history. This pins them down beyond all doubt." Gordon Willey, Professor Emeritus, Harvard University "…a concise and informative study of a culturally significant class of Pre-Columbian artifacts…Not satisfied simply to carry out technical analyses and museum artifacts, the authors go further to combine their archaeometric [sic] data with inferences from archaeology and ethnohistory to investigate the social and economic significance of the bronze artifacts."

This is the first publication of complete watercolor renderings recording early documentation of the frieze of the Palace of the Stuccoes, an unusual example of architectural decoration in the northern Maya lowlands.
Studies in Pre-Columbian Art and Archaeology, Number 31]]>
This volume advances the understanding of the Zapotec script, one of a dozen or so different graphic systems so far identified in Mesoamerica. Zapotec writing constitutes one of the earliest scribal traditions in Mesoamerica; it also has one of the longest evolutionary trajectories. An understanding of this script and of its historical development is important for elucidating the genesis of writing in Mesoamerica. Its relevance for the comparative study of writing systems can hardly be exaggerated.
Studies in Pre-Columbian Art and Archaeology, Number 34]]>
The lowly sandal is emblematic of the way in which archaeology's focus on the study of past human behavior and art history's focus on objects may come together. Taylor likely would never have considered himself as conducting a project in art history and some art historians might not consider sandals as worthy objects of study. In some ways, it does not matter what this research is called, whether the Conjunctive Approach, the New Archaeology, archaeology, material culture studies, or art history. Regardless of its name, this work is a major contribution to research on the prehistory of Northern Mexico and the Desert Southwest. Careful research on objects as simple as sandals can elucidate a wealth of information about these objects and the people who used them.
Studies in Pre-Columbian Art and Archaeology, Number 35]]>
Since the publication of the Handbook of the Robert Woods Bliss Collection of Pre-Columbian Art in 1963, a number of objects have been added to the collection. They are listed in this supplement, with the numbers continuing from the last item in the Handbook.]]>
This book "is a very welcome publication of what is so far a little-known artistic tradition in Mesoamerica. . . . There are many questions regarding the style and iconography of Teotihuacán mural paintings that still need to be answered, and this volume is an invaluable scholarly aid in pursuing the issues." Esther Pasztory, The Art Bulletin]]>
"A publishing masterpiece…embraces 16 roll-outs…magnificently painted in color by Diane G. Peck and Felipe Dávalos G. and reproduced in 11 x 17 inch format on quality durable paper. Unbound, all 16 could be attractively framed for added effect." Latin America in Books]]>

Poll: Is aikido violent?

I understand what you mean about the hammer. The reason I disagree is that I think that a way is different than a tool.
A spoon is a kitchen tool. A style of cooking, which could be described in a book and practiced in lots of kitchens around the world, is an art. Lets say the style of cooking happens to be a way of making cakes. Then somebody posts on cakeweb forums "is our way a way of making pasta?" Well a good cake maker may make a great lasagna if he uses lasagna stuff instead of cake stuff, but so what--he has ceased to practice cake-waza. He is off on his own, using well-refined skills do something that is not cake making.
Aikido is how to resolve conflict in the LEAST damaging way possible. This is the OPPOSITE of violence. If you choose to unnecessarily pound someone out of malice, then you are NOT doing aikido--I don't care how much it looks like any aikido technique.
"Aikido is non-violence" and "aikido is the manifestation of love" cannot describe a simple tool--they describe a way of thinking and a way of feeling. In this way of thinking, violence is the enemy.

Van Buren police said they arrested James Wesley Mattingly on charges of second-degree battery after they suspect he hit a 1-month-old baby on the genitalia.
The child's mother told police Mattingly was watching the baby in her apartment while she went to the store. She heard the baby crying from outside the door when she returned and found Mattingly hitting the baby.
The mother said Mattingly's explanation was the baby urinated on him while he was changing the diaper.
Authorities said the baby was treated and released from the hospital. Mattingly was booked into the Crawford County Detention Center.

KIHEI - The Jewish Congregation of Maui will mark the Festival of Purim after sunset at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the Beit Shalom Synagogue in Kihei.
Purim celebrates the Jewish people surviving the genocidal plans of the Persian tyrant, Haman, who wished to annihilate all the Jews of Persia and its 127 provinces.
There are five commandments that the Jewish people observe this day: to hear the reading of the Megillah/Scroll of Esther; to send mishloach manot, or gifts of food; to give gifts to the poor in preparation for Passover; to say Al Hanisim, or a special prayer, acknowledging the miracle of this day; and to have a festive meal.
The event is open to everyone.
At 9:30 a.m. Sunday, there will be morning service followed by a traditional reading of the Megillah by Rabbi David Glickman. In the spirit of the holiday, come in costume and bring mishloach manot, or small baskets of food, to give to friends and visitors.
In observance of the directive to help the needy on Purim, the congregation will collect packaged and canned foods for the Maui Food Bank until April 14. Please drop items off at the synagogue. Recommended items include canned meat, tuna, fruits, vegetables and canned meals and soups with protein, cereals, rice and pasta. Financial contributions also are welcome by the Maui Food Bank.
The celebration will continue from 5 to 8 that evening with a Purim party featuring a costume contest, exchange of mishloach-manot goody baskets, the story of Esther in pidgin, a deejay and a light dinner for $10. Reserve for the meal at 874-5397.
The congregation's synagogue is at 634 Alulike St. in Kihei, behind the Maui Lu Resort, on the corner of Kaonoulu and Alulike streets. For more information, send e-mail email@example.com.

The new F1 game from Codemasters is based on the EGO Engine 1.5, which was developed specifically for the game. The game developers have focused primarily on the race tracks, so the audience seem unkind and modeled as a decoration only just packed off the track. The existing "matte paintings" see it from the more impressive places like Monaco and give a special charm.
The race tracks are accessible not only in bright sunshine, but also weak and heavy rain. This has never looked so good. Depending on the perspective, the drivers can count every single drop on the visor and the cars before the drivers take to the pilot through the spraying water high visibility. This gives the game a lot more realism.
One of the most important graphic elements, however, the F1 car itself Codemasters has gone into the last corner to the Formula 1 racing car faithfully reproduce. Not only the cockpit was implemented carefully, but also the chassis and the body of the car. Buildings and other objects are reflected in the paint of the sports car in the rain, this effect is of course increased. Lands of the F1 car in the sand or gravel shall be liable, this for a while at the tire and affects the handling.

Okay, I need some brain-power and I confess, more than I possess, if
anyone wants a challenge; I'm not trying to get you to do my job for
me, but I'm not afraid to admit I could use some suggestions.
I have an inventory kit program and have to arrive at a price for a
kit. Problem is, a kit may have kits within it; and in turn, those
kits may have kits within them.
So essentially, I need to somehow "explode" the main kit to be able to
work with all the sub-kits, and sub-sub-kits, and
sub-sub-sub-kits...and I'm not sure what the best way to do that would
I thought of making a large array and if kit one had 3 parts and a kit
in it, write out to the array, the 3 parts and the items in the
sub-kit. Then, leave my index where it leaves off, and process the
array - if I find a kit still exists after exploding the first
sub-kit, add the items in that kit where I left off.
Something like:
KitA contains:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
So my array would contain
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Kit B part 1
Kit B part 2
Kit B subkit Kit C
Then, read the array again, if a sub-kit still exists, replace that
sub-kit with the components of the kit
Then the array would look like
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Kit B part 1
Kit B part 2
Kit C part 1
Kit C part 2
And keep repeating until no more kits??? Is there a better way?? I
think there has to be...I would appreciate any ideas or suggestions.
I am thinking I can't really do anything with a subroutine in RPG
because it would end up calling itself??
I hate things like this because you think about them even when you are
not at work, or when you are trying to sleep - and counting kits is
not more effective than counting sheep.
Any and all ideas/suggestions are welcome.

Album Review
became the stars they so desperately wanted to be with their 1989 debut,
Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich
. Perhaps not the biggest stars, since
Guns n' Roses
still ruled the roost in 1989, but
nearly reached number one with "Heaven" and went platinum, which gave them the spoils of a rock star, from groupies and model girlfriends to being given the freedom to try anything they wanted on their second record. So, working once again with producer
Beau Hill
-- who helped define the L.A. hair metal sound with his work with

Cherry Pie
. At times, it even seems like they're trying to get a little more serious, not in hopes of gaining critical respect -- face it, there's no way the critics were going to flip for
, no matter what they did -- but to prove that there's a little bit more to them than the success-n-sex-obsessed party boys of their debut. Not too much more, though -- after all this is a record that explicitly explains the euphemism of its title track through its album cover. Nevertheless, there is a concentrated effort to stretch a little bit, whether it's covering
's bluesy "Train, Train" or the attempt at spooky storytelling on "Uncle Tom's Cabin" or even the elaborate arrangement on "I Saw Red," this album's attempt at a big power ballad hit. Throughout the album there are hints that the band is trying do more musically -- more room given to guitar solos, along with flashing acoustic picking, bassist
Jerry Dixon
pops his strings to get himself noticed, there are more keyboards, and vocalist
Jani Lane
spends more time on his words, which are printed in the booklet, unlike last time. Some of this pays off -- for instance, the
by way of
Bon Jovi
anthem "Bed of Roses" clicks -- but it can also weigh down the party tunes and power ballads, the very thing that were strengths on the debut. It makes
Cherry Pie
less fun even if it's overall more accomplished and diverse, particularly because none of the singles are as strong as either "Down Boys" or "Heaven." Still, there's enough here -- whether it's the goofy title track "Cherry Pie," the effective "Uncle Tom's Cabin," or the ridiculous ode to threesomes, "Love in Stereo" -- to make this worthwhile for those who loved
Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich
, even if it doesn't hold up as well as that record.

HC nod for release of Thillu Mullu-2
By Express News Service - CHENNAI
Published: 14th June 2013 07:35 AM
Last Updated: 14th June 2013 07:36 AM
The Madras High Court has permitted the release of Tamil feature film Thillu Mullu-2, starring Shiva, Santhanam and Isha Deol, on June 14.
Originally, M R Viswanathan aka Visu of Okkiyum Thoraipakkam, filed a civil suit and an application to restrain Vendhar Movies of Saligramam and the producers of the film, from releasing the same on June 14.
Plaintiff (Visu) claimed that he was the author of the script and literary and dramatic work of the original film Thillu Mullu, starring Rajanikanth, released in 1981. The new film 'Thillu Mullu 2' contained the same screen play and dialogues, Visu contended.
When the matter came up before Justice R Sudhakar today, senior advocate A Natarajan submitted that Thillu Mullu-2 did not contain the same screen play and dialogues of the earlier 1981 film, as claimed by Visu.
Natarajan also filed the affidavits of R Badri,director of the present film, and Balagurunathan, a partner in Vendhar Movies. The affidavits stated that the screen play of 'Thillu Mullu-2' was written by Badri and the dialogues were written by one Balaji. The film was a remake based on the original story line written by Sailesh Dey for the Hindi movie 'Golmal', released in 1979. The screenplay and dialogues used in the new movie were totally different from that of Viswanathan, the affidavits added.
''In view of the clear statements made by the duo, who are the necessary parties to give undertakings, which is also accepted by the plaintiff, theinjunction petition is closed, recording the above,'' Justice R Sudhakar said. He posted the main suit for further hearing on July 5.

For vegetarians and vegans, the South long has been a desert; a place where barbecued pork, fried chicken, salt-cured "Virginia ham," ribs, sausage, country- fried steak and even "chitlins' " (that's pig intestine for you Yankees) have been part of the culture that's ingrained and celebrated.
If you go
Today: The College of Charleston's College Reads presents vegan triathlete Rich Roll, author of "Finding Ultra," at 4:45 p.m. in Room 129 of the college's School of Sciences and Mathematics Building, 202 Calhoun St. (at Calhoun and Coming streets). The event is free and open to the public.Saturday: Charleston Veggies and Vegans will hold its first Veggie/Vegan Restaurant Outing at 6:30 p.m. at Puree Organic Cafe, an all-vegetarian restaurant, at 1034 Chuck Dawley Blvd. in Mount Pleasant. The group asks for RSVPs via the events tab on the Charleston Veggies and Vegans Facebook page.March 27: The College of Charleston presents "Gene Baur: The Impact of Factory Farming" 5:30-7:30 p.m. in Room 227 of Addlestone Library, 205 Calhoun St. downtown. Baur's book, "Farm Sanctuary: Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and Food," was released in 2008. The event is free and open to the public.March 28: Jivamukti Yoga Charleston will present "An Evening With Gene Baur" at 7:30-9:30 p.m. at its studio, 320 W. Coleman Blvd. in Mount Pleasant. A donation of $10 to $20 to benefit Farm Sanctuary is suggested.
But several events have transpired in the Charleston area in the past year or so that may be an indication that the area is becoming an oasis for locals who eschew meat, dairy and eggs.
Foodie options
Several restaurants are offering more menu items, from the all-vegetarian Puree Organic Cafe in Mount Pleasant and the future Dell'z Uptown cafe at 511 Rutledge Ave. to vegan-friendly restaurants such as Doe's Pita in North Charleston, Dell'z Deli, Verde and Black Bean Co. in Charleston, the latter two of which are adding locations.
The Sprout, which is primarily a vegan smoothies and juice bar, also offers vegan food items. And its owners, Mickey and Caroline Brennan, are advocates for the lifestyle.
In January, the College of Charleston announced plans to open a dining hall featuring vegan and kosher food, made possible by a $1 million pledge, in the school's Jewish Studies Center.
The hall will be named for Jewish Studies Director Martin Perlmutter, who has a passion for "ethical eating" and the philosophical question raised by food consumption.
A campus focus
This school year, the topic of veganism and vegetarianism has been front and center at C of C as its "The College Reads" program has featured an array of speakers, panel discussions and films.
Last fall, nearly 900 people came out to hear a talk by Jonathan Safran Foer, author of "Eating Animals," at TD Arena.
Today, vegan triathlete Rich Roll, author of "Finding Ultra," will talk. Next week, Farm Sanctuary's co-founder Gene Baur gives three talks, including two open ones at the college and Jivamukti Yoga Charleston in Mount Pleasant.
Films that the college has screened, including "Forks Over Knives" and "Earthlings," are among a half-dozen that have raised awareness nationally about the myriad problems caused by factory farming: from obesity, heart disease, cancer and taxpayer-funded subsidies to environmental degradation and animal cruelty.
Additionally, the Internet and social media are enriching the ground for the growth of vegetarianism in Charleston. Groups such as Charleston Veggies and Vegans on Facebook and animal welfare action group Carolina Community Animal Reform Education are bringing like-minded people together.
Yoga influence
Longtime local vegan advocates such as Andrea Boyd and Jeffrey Cohen of Jivamukti Yoga Charleston are taking note, though with mixed feelings about the progress.
"When we moved here (in 2005), we wondered if we were the only vegans in town," says Boyd, who often talks about the importance of a vegan diet in yoga classes.
"It's really ingrained in the culture, so there has been a lot of resistance to the message, but there always will be the hope that everyone starts to see the benefits of how it can change health in this country"
She's disheartened that even among yoga practitioners nationally only 12 percent claim to be vegetarian and that many local yoga studios don't advocate it.
Cohen says many people still view being a vegetarian or vegan as radical or extreme.
"But what's more radical? A vegan diet or a triple-bypass surgery? All the things that plague us in our culture and the environment today have a direct correlation to diet. We just live in the age that the main root cause of suffering has to do with what's on our plate. And if people change that, their lives will transform."
While Boyd and Cohen have made veganism "business as usual" since the beginning, they have been joined by a growing number of fellow advocates in recent years.
A chef's view
Among them is chef and former meat lover Ken Immer
"Vegetarian food in Charleston has come a long way since I was first on the restaurant scene here in Charleston back in 1993," says Immer, founder and chief operating officer of gRAWnola. He is a vegetarian who often eats vegan and holds vegan juice fasts and vegan cooking classes.
"Back in the old days at SNOB (Slightly North of Broad), it was difficult to actually find vegetables that did not have some animal proteins or fats in them with our copious use of butter and cream."
Immer says SNOB's Frank Lee, however, later set the stage for nearly every restaurant offering a truly vegetarian plate that is often vegan. The rise of local farmers markets, CSAs and locally sourced restaurant food also has improved options for vegetarians.
"Now we see the emergence and success of restaurants like Dell'z, The Sprout, Verde, among others, with a decidedly vegetarian angle, and Five Loaves Cafe and The Mustard Seed with their numerous veggie choices on their daily menu. It has become relatively easy for someone who is a lacto-ovo vegetarian to get some good grub in town."
Fork activism
Animal rights advocate Elaine Hursen was drawn to the opportunities that Charleston's culinary community offered for change.
"Because Charleston is a culinary town, people are open to anything creative and new when it comes to food, " says Hursen, adding that vegan food is a rising trend in foodie circles.
The 32-year-old James Island resident is among a core group of about eight people who have been organizing events as part of Carolina CARE, has organized two Walk for Animals events and is planning one for sometime this spring.
Old ways die
While all acknowledge that eating meat is entrenched in the South, they point to other unethical, unhealthy traditions and customs that have been torn down.
College of Charleston math professor and vegan Martin Jones, who has tirelessly worked on the College Reads programming this year, points to slavery and cigarette smoking as examples of daunting scale that have met their demise.
"I remember going on the plane for the first time and there was a smoking row. It didn't matter that the smoke circulated throughout the plane. Back then, people had no idea that we'd see a day that you can't smoke in a plane ... or a restaurant. Who thought?
"... I think the same thing will happen when the critical mass will get there (not eat meat) and that there will be so many options and that it would be so easy to be vegan. ... When you get down to the fact that we can live a life without eating meat and that we raise these animals, from birth to death, in horrific conditions. What could be more unnecessary than my taste buds?"
Market success
And yet, many vegetarian and vegan proponents say people don't have to sacrifice taste.
Puree Organic Cafe restaurant owners Jenan and Bryant McClain are proving that, within a year of opening, they can pack the restaurant at lunch in a relatively obscure location on Chuck Dawley Boulevard in Mount Pleasant.
"We're doing really well and just started serving dinner," she says. "We're doing even better than we expected. ... We'd love to open a second location at some point down the road."
When the McClains moved here, they were surprised that Charleston had no restaurant that served 100 percent vegetarian food, particularly given its array of dining options and its dynamic fitness and yoga communities.
The Greenville native adds, however, that she's unsure how well a restaurant such as Puree would do in other Southern communities, such as the Upstate.
What Puree and other mostly vegetarian dining options do is to educate the public on the alternatives to eating meat that are not only healthy but delicious, she says.

Since opening in 2005, Jivamukti Yoga Charleston owners Andrea Boyd and Jeffrey Cohen have promoted vegan lifestyles as a compassionate way of living and often hold vegan potlucks.×

Chairman Sen Tom Harkin (D, Iowa) and Sen Bob Casey (D, Pa), chairman of the Subcommittee on Employment and Workplace Safety, announced on March 29 that they had signed on as original cosponsors of the Protecting America's Workers Act bill, introduced March 22. The bill would amend and update the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970.

McDermott Wins Reversal on Galderma Anti-Acne Patent
Galderma SA's monopoly on its brand-name acne treatment Differin Gel 0.3% went up in smoke on Wednesday, when the generic drug company Tolmar Inc. and its lawyers at McDermott Will & Emery persuaded the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to invalidate Galderma's patents.In a 2-1 decision, the Federal Circuit panel ruled that Galderma's four patents on Differin 0.3% are invalid on obviousness grounds. The ruling overturns a prior decision by U.S. District Judge Leonard Stark in Wilmington, Del. Tolmar and its corporate partner Sandoz Inc. are free to sell a generic version of Differin 0.3%, which has generated close to $100 million in annual sales for Galderma.McDermott Will partner Thomas Steindler represented Tolmar at oral argument, squaring off against Galderma lawyer Charles Lipsey of Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner.Way back in 1996, Galderma obtained regulatory approval to sell an acne treatment called Differin Gel 0.1%, which contains 0.1 percent of a chemical compound called adapalene. With its patents on that drug nearing expiration, Galderma filed patents on Differin Gel 0.3%, which -- no shock here -- contains a higher dose of adapalene. Tolmar sought to invalidate Galderma's new batch of patents, arguing that they are obvious in light of Galderma's earlier Differin patents.While Differin Gel 0.3% wasn't exactly a scientific breakthrough, Stark decided in to uphold Galderma's patents on the drug in a September 2012 decision. The drug represented an innovation, Stark wrote, because at the time of its patenting scientists believed that a 0.3% dose of adapalene would cause less-than-ideal side effects.In Wednesday's decision, the Federal Circuit concluded that Stark got it wrong. "Tolmar presented an obviousness case that is both straightforward and potent," Circuit Judge Sharon Prost wrote on behalf of the two-judge majority.The decision drew a dissent from from Judge Pauline Newman, who wrote that her colleagues "foreclose patentability to a vast body of improvement patents." She added that "the losers are those afflicted by disease."McDermott's Steindler declined to comment. Finnegan's Lipsey was not immediately available for comment.

The Anaheim Ducks have solved their Corey Perry dilemma, taking him off the list of soon-to-be free agents with an eight-year contract extension on Monday. The man of the hour himself was apt to note that the deal neutralizes any trade talk and debate over whether to live fast for one season or make a sacrificial investment for the future.
Other teams, though, are still subject to that internal conflict of debating whether to keep a pending free agent while they still can or cut him loose early when a return package is still assured.
Besides that annual ritual, though, 2013's bridge between now and next season also presents the need to brace for a salary cap reduction. The trade deadline could be an optimum time to release a hefty cap hit and take on a less weighty one that will nonetheless bolster one's on-ice product.
Several NHL general managers have been apt to cite the unusual circumstances of a shortened season as the cause of an inevitably sparse trade market. Chicago's Stan Bowman told NHL.com's Dan Rosen on Wednesday, "I don't think guys are going to want to trade players away until they're out of the race, and as it is now, certainly in the West, you could make an argument that almost every team is still in it."
Although a case can be made for playoff contenders to hold back, some of those teams have players that they ought to put on the block if it means addressing an immediate need through the return package.
Here are the players whose employers either do not appear to be "sellers" or who have otherwise not generated reckonable trade talk, but would nonetheless make for a sensible export.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's credibility is being questioned after he charged that Mitt Romney didn't pay taxes for 10 years.
Reid made the accusation this week during a wide-ranging interview with The Huffington Post blog site. He claimed a former investor in Romney's Bain Capital company gave him the information.
"Harry, he didn't pay any taxes for 10 years," Reid recalled the person saying.
"Now, do I know that that's true? Well, I'm not certain," Reid continued. "But obviously he can't release those tax returns. How would it look?"
The comments have generated a lot of controversy.
Now, The Washington Post "Fact Checker" has given Reid "four Pinocchios" for his claim, since he refused to reveal his source.
Romney has only released two years of tax returns, but denies Reid's claim.
The Washington Post had a team of experts look at Romney's history of income and investments, and determined that his portfolio "is not structured to yield zero taxes."
Still, Reid and other Democrats aren't backing down from the accusation.
Romney said he has no plans to release any more tax returns.

NEW YORK (AP) - An Italian tourist who was accused of refusing to pay a tab at an upscale steakhouse said on Friday that he had forgotten his wallet and didn't have enough cash.
Mr Graziano Graziussi was eating with another person at Smith & Wollensky in Manhattan earlier this week. Police said he rang up a US$208 (S$257) bill but then told the waiter he forgot his wallet and couldn't pay. Police say he appeared drunk and tried to leave to get money, but the manager called police.
One responding officer was fluent in Italian and interpreted, though Mr Graziussi speaks English.
Mr Graziussi, a 43-year-old lawyer from Naples, had US$118 but refused to hand it over, police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said on Friday. He was arrested on a charge of theft of services and was released.
Mr Graziussi said he was not refusing to pay, but was trying to figure out a way to get the remainder of the money, including leaving his iPhone as collateral while he ran to his friend's home, where he was staying, to get his wallet.
"I was suggesting any possible solution," he said in English. "It's only for forgetting my wallet that I got imprisoned. It is by no means true that I was refusing to pay."
The steakhouse opened in 1977 and is one of the city's best-known establishments.
The restaurant, where a steak costs about US$50, said it doesn't contact the police in matters involving customers without "significant cause".

Does Jason Segel like puppets better than women?
November 22, 2011 | 11:57 am
Actor Jason Segel spoke with People magazine about his new Muppet movie, explaining why he's still single:
"My house is packed with puppets. Like, everywhere. Thank God I have a slightly bigger house now, so I have one room that's sort of dedicated to puppets. But for a long time I lived in a one-bedroom apartment that was just crammed with puppets. It's why I'm still single."

A storm in a tea cup, and then some.
The other day, I was caught somewhat off-guard when I thought I had found entire Universe in a cup of coffee. I won't go so far as to compare my experience to Proust's "madeleine moment", but it certainly felt pretty philosophical...
I am lucky enough to have the opportunity to travel a lot. I go by train, by plane, and, more recently, by driving myself around in my little car. Often, I do this alone. Especially when driving, I find myself going through little rituals to make sure the trip goes smoothly. From picking out CDs for the trip to the final keys/wallet/phone three-pocket check, these habits make the inevitable monotony of the long drive just a bit more relaxing.
There is one particular trip I make fairly regularly, during which I always stop half-way for a break. I might have some food if it's that sort of time of day, and at the very least I have a cup of coffee. Just such a break, as I stared into the still-hot stimulant, set the scene for my mind to snap back from its usual breaktime wanderings to a strong feeling of here-and-now (or, in our more current frame of reference, there-and-then), a sort of meditation if you will. Feeling the connections of the world and their reflections in an otherwise mundane situation, I imagined all the aspects of the experience playing out in front of me.
My scientific training came to the fore.
I felt physics: thermodynamics in the gradual change of temperature, more heat escaping straight into the air above than through the insulation of the cup; fluid mechanics as I stirred in some sugar. Then came chemistry: the sugar dissolving, the water evaporating, carrying with it such rich smells! This turned into biology, as the aromatic molecules triggered electrical signals which traveled up to my brain, and I began to feel the caffeine's effects. But could I really feel the effects so quickly, or was this the psychological effect of a placebo?
My mind whirred as I came to contemplate all these notions. Usually at this stage in my drive break, I'd be tweeting something about a quirk of Swiss German, not philosophising like this. I was a bit surprised. This was not part of the ritual. But for some reason, I was playing this little game of analysing each of the facets of the drink, from a scientific point of view.
I'm not convinced my half-hearted attempt at using poetic language above is much cop. Feynman says it better, as usual:
Now, while I couldn't necessarily give a detailed explanation of all these ideas in the same way a specialist in each subject might, I was very grateful in that moment to even be aware of them. While not wanting to sound patronising, I feel that having an appreciation for the layers of the world that exist beyond a primary, sensorial impression adds a great deal (what of, I'm not exactly sure - intensity? validity? worth?) to any experience. But then that might just be my privilege showing. Hm.
Anyway, here's Feynman again making the case for scientific understanding adding beauty to the world better than I can:
Going further than the superficial sciences, I started to reflect on the significance of what I was doing. I don't just mean the "Pale Blue Dot" effect and the notion of wonder at being able to think about these ideas in the first place, let alone the seemingly miraculous origins of the atoms and molecules making up the coffee and the fascinating history of the bean.
No, indeed, I also came to think about the social value of caffeine, and wondered how many people around the world were also sitting alone during a long drive, drinking coffee at that very same moment. It was at least 6, based on those I could see in my immediate vicinity. Probably many more though.
But even all of these engaging thoughts faded somewhat as I went over them. The moment passed. After all, it was just a cup of coffee. A temporary lift to get me through the next stretch of driving, to pick me up as I digested dinner. All poetry aside, it was primarily a practical experience.
And yet, as I stirred the end of my drink, mixing in the last of the sugar, I paused again. A French word sauntered up from the back of my mind, and made me smile: touiller. (Pronounced /tu.je/ "too-yeah" (ish))
It means "to stir". Remuer also means "to stir", but in my understanding touiller has a nonchalant or absent-minded aspect to it. To stir without paying much attention or trying very hard. You might twiddle with your hair by touill-ing it, but one would not touille cement. In fact, I have almost exclusively heard it used in relation to that special kind of stirring one does to coffee, when your mind wanders to think about the grandeur and glory of the Universe, and a bit about the remaining leg of the drive home. that might just be my experience, however. The French Wiktionary page mentions salad and earth being touill-ed as well. By reading that page, I also just learned that touiller gives rise to the word ratatouille. Small world.
Touiller son café.
I really like this "expresso expression" (sorry). To me, it expresses not just the simple act of sitting and drinking a coffee, but also of taking a moment to think about one's place in the world and how ridiculous and marvelous it all is. From physics to sociology and right through to languages, there are endless ideas to appreciate.
So, yes, in a cup of coffee you can find ALL THE SCIENCE THINGS. But there are also other things.
Candide a conclu qu'il faut cultiver son jardin; j'ajouterai qu'il faut aussi touiller son café.
Over to you:
- Do you like to travel?
- Do you travel alone? What rituals do you have to make your trip go more smoothly?
- How do you say "to stir" in your language?
- What do you think about over coffee?

By Brendan Monaghan
It's been said many times over the past two months, but this week the Oregon Republican Party really does face a time for choosing. With delegates and officials electing a new chair for the party Saturday in Salem, much will be made of the new direction the victor will take them.
As with any organization, the incoming chair will be reflective of the majority will of those showing up. Non-affiliated and other party voters should pay attention to Saturday's sentiments and whether the new chair can strengthen the two-party system or will continue Oregon's slide toward one-party governance. With that in mind, party members took great strides in updating the platform, removing unnecessary homophobic language in 2011. Defending these changes against newly emboldened social conservatives will be of paramount importance this summer. To that end, Republicans need a chair who reflects the reality of Oregon's polity -- not the embarrassing tweets of the talk show hosts seen on the first day of the legislative session.
The party is also leaps and bounds ahead of where it once was in attracting top-tier candidates. Had the secretary of state's race been decided among newspaper editorial boards, Knute Buehler would have beaten Kate Brown in a walk. In an interview, Buehler said a new chair should continue these changes. "To be successful they must focus on making the Oregon GOP the party of freedom and opportunity, a party that is fiscally conservative and socially tolerant."
Buehler said that continuing to modernize party structures will shift the focus back to the chair's ultimate responsibility. "This will help mightily candidates to win elections, which needs to be the foremost goal."
Likewise, former state Rep. Katie Eyre, R-Hillsboro, says the chair's first order of business must be growing the party and finding new voters.
"The chairperson must be in sync with our values, but what good does that do if the chairperson is unable to turn our values into voters and votes, and thus unable to elect people who are also in sync with our values?" she said in an interview.
Eyre reflects a frustration among many in the party that although five people have officially announced, a perfect or even ideal candidate is not among them. She has said that she was asked to throw her hat in the ring, but couldn't take the full-time, no-pay job.
"Until we face the reality of this situation," she said, "many very talented and worthy candidates must forgo seeking this leadership position, and the party may be losing out on some of the best and brightest folks willing to do this."
Fifty years ago, bishops, cardinals and laypeople had difficult choices to make, running against the wind, in an effort to modernize the ancient church. Many of those decisions were unpopular at the time -- and remain controversial today -- but they have made a tremendous impact on Catholics and nonbelievers alike. The Oregon Republican Party's problems will not be solved in one swift stroke this weekend, but the wrong chair could exacerbate them. Whether he or she will look outward and attract new voters and members with a more inclusive, realistic message or turn inward for a purer, smaller exclusive club may be the first story to come out Saturday.
The quality of Oregon's republic depends on a real choice between two strong parties. Saturday's convention begins the task of transforming Republicans into electoral foes rather than Democratic foils.

This book originated out of a desire to combine topics on vibrational absorption, Raman scattering, vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) and Raman optical activity (VROA) into one source. The theoretical details of these processes are presented in ten different chapters. Using dispersive and Fourier transform techniques, the instrumentation involved in these spectral measurements are given in three chapters. Major emphasis is placed on the newer techniques, i.e. VCD and VROA, with the conventional vibrational absorption and vibrational Raman scattering methods incorporated as natural parts of the newer methods.
Features of this book:
. Comprehensive coverage of vibrational circular dichroism and vibrational Raman optical activity.
. Coverage of theoretical and instrumental details.
. A comprehensive survey of VCD and VROA applications is included, so that the reader can get an overview of theory, instrumentation and applications in one source.
The topics covered are of an advanced level, which makes this book invaluable for graduate students and practising scientists in vibrational spectroscopy.

Fischer Declares Liz Cheney Is Not 'A Patriot' Because She Is Too Pro-Gay
Bryan Fischer has written a post declaring his opposition to the Liz Cheney after she announced that she will be challenging Wyoming Senator Mike Enzi in the Republican primary on the grounds that Cheney is not a patriot because she is insufficiently anti-gay:
The massive problem is that on values issues, which matter most right now for America's future, she will fight for the team wearing lavender instead of the team wearing red, white and blue.
In 2009, she inartfully dodged two attempts to press her to declare her position on sodomy-based marriage, which in the end means just one thing: she's for it.
Although I'm not aware that she has declared a position on ENDA, in 2009 she supported the State Department's decision, in flagrant violation of DOMA, the law of the land at the time, to extend benefits to same-sex partners.
Said Ms. Cheney, "I think it's wrong to discriminate, in those relationships, based on someone's sexual preference." Homosexual activists prefer her to Enzi for the sole reason that she just might be a "sleeper vote for LGBT rights."
She supported the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, which is driving values-based members of the military out of the service and ushering in militant homosexuals. Currently, 55-60% of all sexual assaults in the military now, thanks in part to the DADT repeal, are committed by homosexuals.
Liz Cheney will be an undeniably appealing candidate, and conservatives will be tempted to turn a blind eye toward her support for the deviancy cabal. But we do so not only at our peril but at the peril of the future of our country.
George Washington famously said, "Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness."
The bottom line: Liz Cheney is not, under Washington's definition, a patriot. She will throw her weight behind those who are placing improvised explosive devices beneath both of Washington's indispensable pillars. When the roof collapses on us all, those who supported Liz Cheney will be partly to blame.

DRIVERS are being urged to 'think of the morning after' in this year's festive season drink-drive campaign.
The road safety team in Northumberland along with other councils are backing a 'morning after' campaign that aligns with the Association of Chief Police Officer's (ACPO) drink drive message.
ACPO's enforcement campaign is targeting well-intentioned drivers who do not think they are breaking the law but may be over the legal limit when they get into their car the morning after drinking.
For example, If you drink a bottle of 15% wine - just three 250ml glasses - you should not drive for 13 hours - that's 1pm the next day if you finish drinking at midnight.
Or, if you drink four pints of lager you should not drive for at least 13 hours from finishing your last pint. If you finish at midnight, you may not be safe to drive until after 1pm the next day.
DCC Davenport, ACPO lead on roads policing, said: "Some drivers think they are obeying the law but are in fact breaking it by getting into their cars the morning after a night of drinking.
"People may be surprised to hear that last year between the hours of 6am and 11am more than 400 people failed breath tests (or refused to provide a specimen), which is more than those caught for the hour before or after midnight."
Coun Simon Reed added: "The campaign explains that it takes much longer than most people think for alcohol to pass through the body, and that because of this it is very likely that many people unwittingly drive while still over the drink drive limit the morning after heavy drinking.
"The message is to aimed at helping normally responsible people avoid a drink drive conviction – or much worse causing a crash and casualties."
