A Game 7 blowout in Victoria ... a tie-breaker nail-biter in Prince Albert ... Tokarski finishes as the WHL leader in 4 categories.
Lightning crumble in final 20:24.
Karri Ramo allowed 3 goals on 39 shots before allowing 2 of 6 shooters to convert for the shootout loss. He looked really good for the first 39:36 of the game. He was moving well. Following the puck. Then he overplayed on Jason Blake to allow the first goal and his fundamentals started to come unglued. His rebound control went straight to hell. His five-hole got big enough to drive a truck through. I give him credit for battling his way to get the point and he was game in the shootout, but that's a game Karri's got to help his team close out. Fundamentals. Fundamentals. Fundamentals. On the good side, he's claimed 6 of the last 8 available points.

Hard luck by the Lightning in the shootout as Stamkos and St. Louis both rang posts. Hint to Rick Tocchet: Lashoff's awesome at shootouts.
We'll have to see if the Lightning make a recall with Cory Murphy going down to injury. Vladimir Mihalik?
Noah Welch had 2 penalty minutes, 2 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 18:29. If he plays every game down the stretch, he'll graduate and be a Bolt Prospects alumni. This saddens me. See: Stewart, Karl.
Matt Smaby was -1 with 2 penalty minutes, 1 shot, 1 hit, and 2 blocked shots in 20:57. He was more subdued than usual tonight.
David Koci had a 10 minute misconduct, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot in 4:47.
Paul Szczechura was +1 with 1 shot and 2 blocked shots in 13:31. He was also 70% on draws. He looked good tonight. His whole line did with Pettinger and Karsums.
Martins Karsums had an assist and was +1 with 2 shots and 2 hits in 10:19. Still waiting for him to put it all together, but he was better tonight.
Richard Petiot had 2 hits in 18:59 against his former organization.
Matt Lashoff was -1 with 1 shot, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot in 22:58. You can see why he was a guy the Lightning were willing to give considerably to get. His skating is smooth as silk, and he's got some skill. Between Lashoff, Ranger, and Meszaros the Lightning will have a ridiculously mobile defense next season. The downside with Lashoff? Tocchet needs to get him to take the body more in the defensive zone. If he can get that out of Lashoff, he's a top-four in this league. Even if he doesn't, he's a real nice number five d-man in the making; a great piece to add to the puzzle.

Kelowna Rockets 1 @ Spokane Chiefs 0
G Dustin Tokarski, SPO: Loss, 23 saves on 24 shots, *Second Star*
Season totals: 54 GP, 34-18-0-2, 1.97 GAA, .937 sv%, 7 shutouts
Mark Guggenberger (undrafted) stopped 22 shots for his first WHL shutout as Kelowna wraps up the West's 3 seed with a 1-0 win in Spokane over the Chiefs. Spokane managed just 4 shots in the third period. Brandon McMillan (Anaheim) scored mid-way through the first period for the Rockets, and Tyler Myers, Tyson Barrie and the rest of the Kelowna defense made it stand up. McMillian is a forward who now plays defense. Kelowna played without three injured regulars, including center Mikael Backlund (Calgary). Spokane was missing four defensemen and a forward who was suspended.
Spokane will host 5-seed Seattle in the first round, though they have one regular season game remaining Tuesday night against Tri-City. It's doubtful many regulars will see action in that game, including Tokarski, who should finish as the league leader in GAA, save percentage (by 16 points), shutouts (tie), and shootouts (86%).
Fadden Team Co-MVP
Mitch Fadden and Predators pick Chet Pickard were named team co-MVPs by the Tri-City Americans during their team awards Sunday night. Fadden also took home the U.S. Cellular Three Stars award. Unofficially, Fadden had 9 first stars, 5 seconds, and 3 thirds.

John Tuckerman's second goal of the game came midway through the first OT period and sent the Huskies on to Round 2 and UMASS home. Its doubtfull that the Minutemen are Tourney bound so this may have been John Wessbeckers last collegiate game.
Luca! Luca! Luca! He's done it again! ... Barberio gets a goal against Ward's Screaming Eagles in regular season finale ... Another multi-point night for Fadden ... Jung stellar, but Edmonton's nearly choked this opportunity away.

Vermont goes 1 for 6 on PP and is upset in Round 1. Catamounts now sit back and watch rest of tourney play out. Being ranked in top 10 for most of season, they should be an easy bet for a NCAA tournament bid.

Kowalski and Radek Smolenak were the game's first and second stars. Smolenak is just one goal away from hitting 20 for the first time in his professional career. Meanwhile, Blair Jones moved just 3 goals shy of accomplishing the same feat.
Two Chris Lawrence sitings in as many nights?
God I love beating the Florida Panthers.
Karri Ramo allowed 3 goals on 37 shots in regulation and overtime before stopping all three shooters for the big shootout victory. Ramo has helped his club claim 5 of the last 6 available points, all in road games. The young man is staking his claim to be Mike Smith's backup next season. We're watching a boy becoming a man under some very tough circumstances.

Noah Welch was -1 with 2 penalty minutes, 3 hits, and 2 blocked shots in 10:19.
Matt Smaby was +1 with 2 penalty minutes, 1 shot, 3 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 25:36. Whereas Ramo is growing up before our eyes, I dare not call Smaby anything less than a grown-ass man out there right now.
Paul Szczechura had 1 shot and 1 hit in 14:01. He was also 36% on 11 draws.
Martins Karsums had 5 hits and 1 blocked shot in 9:28. There's something Ryan Johnson-esque about the way he racks up hit totals despite being physically ineffective.
Richard Petiot had 2 assists and was +2 with 5 hits and 2 blocked shots in 21:36. He skates like a horse, but somehow he manages to get the job done. He's completely outshined Noah Welch so far, which I doubt anybody saw coming when the two overage prospects were acquired at the deadline.

The lads fell behind to an 18th-minute Kevin Toner strike at Burton Albion's Pirelli Stadium, but Harry Kane slotted home a penalty just three minutes after the restart, after himself being upended in the box, to get us back on level terms.
We continued to cause Villa problems for the remainder of the second period, with Laste Dombaxe hitting the woodwork, while Harry also saw an effort pushed onto the upright by Villa keeper Benjamin Siegrist. Ultimately, though, a winner proved elusive.
Speaking after the game, Senior Professional Phase Coach Chris hailed the way the lads upped their game after the interval.
"In the first half we were a bit slow out of the blocks," he said. "We still created chances but we weren't really at the races.
"In the second we carried on with that good forward play, built on that, tightened up defensively and stuck to the game plan.
"Nabil Bentaleb's forward running really sparked us in the second half and that allowed Harry Kane, Simon Dawkins and Kenny McEvoy to really come into the game, and their ability is there for all to see."
Chris said that the lads were under no illusions as to the size of their task on Monday, adding: "It was a tough game as we expected, probably not as many goals as we normally see when we play Villa and certainly not from the chances created, but overall, a satisfying performance in the end."

Blogs can be a very sellable and very rewarding tool if employed correctly could be a very marketable and very profitable. Profiting from blogs is simply a matter of grabbing the attention of an audience and not doing any real salesmen selling. In this post you'll learn the 13 most crucial steps to successful blogging.
one) Where to begin?
Your blog should be begun by you with a free blog hosting support including Diary Home or Blogger. Beginning with a free blog hosting service allows you to start blogging instantly without having any advance knowledge of scripts, hosting, or programming. It allows you to focus on your content and not the internal maintenance of the blog.
2) Niche
A niche is a targeted product, service, or topic. You should first decide on a product, service, or issue which interest you. Select on a daily basis an area which you can enthusiastically write about. You should use keyword research services like Google Zeitgeist or Yahoo! Buzz List to discover popular researched subjects. It does NOT matter if your topic is popular as long as there is a audience for your topic and the topic is exactly focused then your My Plants Blog should be successful.
3) Update Daily (nothing less)
This step is a must and not a proposition. Upgrading your My Car Racing Blog daily not only keeps your blog more interesting to readers, but it also gives your blog fresh content on a day to day making it more attractive to search-engines. Not updating your blog on an occasional holiday or one day here and there is clear to most, but missing days at a time or weeks is unacceptable and will probably result in your blog being unsuccessful.
4) Visitors
It's no secret. You must have traffic to benefit from My Plants Blog. There are many ways to build traffic. You should always use your site URL address in the signature of your e-mail, newsgroup discussions, message boards, or any other communication media. You should submit your blog URL address to search engines and blog sites.
5) Track
Track. search engines and blog sites Your The Camping Blog How do you know if your blog has traffic? traffic? Is not developing just because no body is leaving comments does not mean your website. Comments were not left by many visitors but they are returning visitors. I know it sounds ridiculous but with sites individuals tend to be more interested in what "you" have to say! Many guests don't comment their 1st, 2nd, or 3rd period. Some do not remark at all, but are active daily visitors.
6) Listen to Your Market
When making use of the appropriate page counter-top you should start to see how others are finding your Bowling Blog and if through search engines then which key words are being used to find your site. If continuously your blog will be found by one or more keywords then focus your blog around those keywords to make it even more powerful. When writing entry titles and entries use the keywords as often as possible while keeping the blog legible and interesting. 7) Multiple blogs Use multiple blogging accounts to bring more people.

Marvel's cosmic king Dan Abnett returns to 'Guardians of the Galaxy'
(CBR) In the aftermath of the 2007's "Annihilation: Conquest" miniseries, the spaceways of the Marvel Universe were in a turbulent state -- and in dire need of heroes. What they got was a ragtag band of defenders that included a half-human, half-alien prince, a highly trained assassin reputed to be the deadliest woman in the universe, an immensely powerful alien warrior whose body housed the spirit of a vengeful human, an alien life form that resembled a gigantic tree and a talking, heavily-armed raccoon. The adventures of these heroes were chronicled in a new volume of the fan-favorite series "Guardians of the Galaxy" by writers Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning; an epic space opera which pitted the titular team against a host of immensely powerful cosmic adversaries.
Abnett and Lanning's run on "Guardians of the Galaxy" came to an end in 2010, but the work they did with the characters continues to resonate. Their stories inspired both the current "Guardians" series from writer Brian Michael Bendis and the upcoming "Guardians of the Galaxy" feature film from Marvel Studios, which hits theaters this August. So it's only fitting that Abnett and Lanning return to pen some more stories for the franchise they helped build, and this April they'll do just that. CBR News spoke with Abnett about his work on "Guardians of the Galaxy" #14, which serves as a special 100th issue celebration, and the two issue "Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Prelude," which serves as an overture to the upcoming feature film.
CBR News: Dan, I believe your last Marvel work was in 2012. How does it feel to come back to the company and to the Guardians, especially now when the team's profile is at an all-time high?
Dan Abnett: I'm very happy. I had done a large block of work for Marvel and it had sort of run its course. Now to come back with these stories and there are other bits and pieces in the works, which are quite promising, is really great.
I started working with Marvel UK in the late '80s, on staff. In that time there have been periods when I've worked for Marvel both in Britain and America, and there have been times when I've written for DC. So I think it's a cyclic thing.
And what's happening with "Guardians" is very exciting. The film is going to be great. I can't wait to actually see it. I've had previews and have been privy to some information I'm not able to talk about, and it's going to be spectacular. So it's really nice that it's related so closely to the work I did in that time period on the run on the "Annihilation" stuff and "War of Kings."
I saw that you had the opportunity to tour the production offices of the "Guardians" film. Did you guys get to see any filming?
I did. I got an initial look at the film back when they were in preproduction. So I got to see a lot of design work, read the scripts, and all sorts of exciting things like that. Then I went back in the summer of last year. I went on set and met the characters in flesh and blood! I got to climb in the space ships and do all sorts of stuff. So that was very exciting. I'm very confident that this is going to be a memorable, exciting, and very entertaining film.
You and Andy Lanning collaborated on the "Guardians" stories that inspired the current series and the upcoming feature film, but I understand the new stories you're writing for your return are a little different in that you're working separately, is that correct?
Yes, kind of. Our working relationship essentially ran its course at the beginning of last year, but because ["Guardians" director] James Gunn asked us specifically if we would work on some of the material that would come out in support of the film we have done that.
In the old days we would brain storm together and then I would script. This time around we brainstormed ideas by e-mail with [editor] Bill Rosemann, who -- aside from our "Annihilation: Nova" mini -- edited our entire cosmic run. Andy then wrote up the basic plots and as always I wrote the scripts.
What can you tell us about the plot and characters featured in this "Prelude" that you collaborated on with Andy?
Because the movie is taking the comic and adapting it to movie form the characters will appear to be very recognizable, but they're not in quite the same continuity as the comics. Since this material is based on the movie there are a lot of references and likenesses.
Issue #1 is a Nebula story, which involves a lot of the other characters from the movie. Issue #2 is a Rocket and Groot story. So these stories introduce some of the regular and supporting characters and set up some of the elements of the film.
Who's drawing these stories for you guys?
Wellinton Alves, who we worked with on our "Nova" run, is penciling both issues. These stories take a little longer to get done because unlike a regular Marvel story everything has to be run by the Studio to make sure that we're head on; that nothing's said or done that shouldn't be and that the details and tone are right.
Tonally I think it's absolutely in keeping with our "Guardians" run as you would recognize it but it has its own flavor. That's something I worked hard to maintain in those Prelude stories.

"The approach follows an offer Microsoft made to buy Yahoo a few months ago, the Post reported, but Yahoo spurned the advances. The Post said Wall Street sources put a roughly $50 billion price tag on Yahoo."
Yes, I know they can afford yahoo, but can they really afford yahoo?
So the space gets trimmed to two major players? Something doesn't feel right to me.
In terms of search...there are only two major players now. MSN at the moment really cannot be considered a major player, that's why they are hoping to buy their way there.
It's one of those 'if you can't beat 'em... buy 'em' situations.
However if it did happen, why would MSN adapt Yahoo! search technology? That would be like admitting they are inferior...unlikely for such a big ego like MSN.
Is it a given that such a deal would be granted regulator approval? Surely the govenment knows that Google already dominates the market to an unhealthy extent -- would they really allow G's competition to drop by 50% in one fell swoop?
Or, would they see the merger of the "B" and "C" level players as the only hope for real competition?

I grew up in New York, the Post is not a newspaper, it's a gossip rag.
Marcia nailed it. I thought the same thing as soon as I saw the "ny Post" subtitle on the thread. This is just noise to sell newspapers.
Would you take the best technologies of both, merge them into a single backend and continue to run Yahoo and MSN as branded sites?
Historically have two portals ever successfully merged? (Lycos, Excite, et al.. where are you now?)
The only manageable short to medium term thing I see in this deal is pooling ad space between the two companies.

Something is up...yahoo shares are up significantly at the moment
ROFL.... Wonder if the NY Post writer and publisher are cashing in. ;)
desperation by MSFT
Or trying to see whether Goog gets interested. Goog may see benefit in buying to stop MS, but at a HUGE HUGE premium if they did.
Didn't MS recently annouce they were buying a whole heap of shares back (enhancing shareholder value etc etc)?
I presume they can't do it by leaking this and so damping their shares ...?
IMHO they are nuts on a practical level - the two cultures and software woudl take years to integrate - if at all...
Nuts on a financial level too...

yahoo shares are up significantly at the moment.
Can't imagine why ;)
Good time to short.
From the Wall Street Journal:
A year ago, Microsoft Corp. and Yahoo Inc. explored the idea of combining to form a greater competitor to Google Inc. The talks led nowhere, leaving Microsoft and Yahoo to forge their own paths in pursuit of Google.
The same situation seems to have just played out again. Microsoft and Yahoo in recent months discussed a possible merger of the two companies or some kind of match-up that would pair their respective strengths, say people familiar with the situation. But the merger discussions are no longer active, these people say. The two companies may still explore other ways of cooperating.

It's kind of difficult to comment on the pros and cons of a possible Microsoft acquisition of Yahoo.
I think the U.S. over-hyped prosecution of Microsoft in the late 90s and very early 2000s made some damage to the company's reputation.
Could this be one of the reasons people don't visit Microsoft's properties on the Internet?
An acquisition of Yahoo then makes sense taking into account the previous scenario.
On the other hand, the growing install base of IE 7 and the deployment of Windows Vista is surely making damage to Google's market share. Usage of Yahoo and MSN for search purposes will surely increase in the following months.
So, if today Microsoft has the money to get the technology developed and acquired by Yahoo in the past years, then its the appropriate time for the acquisition.
No matter how, with or without Yahoo, Microsoft wins in the medium-long term.
desperation by MSFT
Yahoo is not competitive at any level and will never be. But since MS can`t create anything new and as good as itunes, youtube, ebay, real, flash, they will have to buy what has been left.
At least they can afford failures and a loser image enabled by their windows monopoly until Google will come up with a complete, free and better operating system.

Have you checked your Web statistics lately?
Referrals from Yahoo and MSN have increased quite a bit for my Web sites.
I think the new Windows Vista and IE 7 installations are affecting Google's share.
You can think MSN & Yahoo are taking off like a rocket all you want. Hardly makes it the case though - you shouldn't draw conclusions about the rest of the web based on a sites stats.
Lets check back in a few months and we'll see about that dent they are making in Google's market share. Too funny, imo.

That's what I thought when I saw it under Webmaster General.
A business that is focused on search , ie Google will be the winner IMO. A potential acquistion of Yahoo by Microsoft does not appear focused and neither company has demonstrated the high ground in search for some time.
If they had a good plan in the first place, it would have been easy to finance and scale.
I can't comment on other strategies which they may be considering.

Not for mine. Google is still way out in front (more than it used to be, in fact). MSN referrals have almost caught up with Yahoo referrals, though.
A few huge promotional campaigns with good guy/gal actors would do them a lot of PR good. People (as opposed to webmasters) use Google because it is the friendly happy web enabled version of Ronald McDonald. Yahoo has the potential to grab some of that market back. MS have no chance.
(For what it's worth my Yahoo referals are up somewhat, but still nowhere near Google's. MSN get less each month. Somewhere around 0.5%. Although their spider activity is 75% more than the others.)

PHOENIX - A 19-year-old man arrested in the death of a Cincinnati Reds outfielder told police he was involved, according to court documents released Friday.
Reginald Riddle of Harvey, Ill., made an initial court appearance Friday. He was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder, armed robbery, kidnapping and burglary but wasn't charged.
According to court records, Riddle said in an interview with police that he was involved in the death of Reds outfielder Dernell Stenson. Riddle didn't immediately respond to a request for an interview made Friday through jail officials.
Stenson, who was playing in the Arizona Fall League, was found dead Wednesday in the Phoenix suburb of Chandler. He had been shot and run over and apparently dragged by his own SUV.

A drone shot down by Israel over the Negev desert transmitted photos of preparations for a military drill between Israel and the United States, and of key weapons sites in Israel, a British newspaper reported.
The unmanned aerial vehicle, or UAV, was shot down by Israeli troops on Oct. 6, after entering Israeli airspace near the Mediterranean Sea.
The drone was launched from Lebanon, in a cooperation between the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and the Lebanon-based terrorist group Hezbollah, the Sunday Times of London reported, citing unnamed sources.
Hassan Nasrallah in a televised speech Oct. 11 admitted to sending the drone which was followed, then intercepted and shot down in an unpopulated area.
The admission came several hours after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a statement saying that Hezbollah was responsible for launching the drone.
"We are acting with determination to protect our borders, as we prevented last weekend an attempt by Hezbollah," Netanyahu said, according to his office.
IDF spokesman Brig. Gen. Yoav Mordechai said the aircraft was identified before entering Israeli airspace from the Mediterranean and was downed in accordance with a decision of the IDF's top leaders.
Nasrallah said the drone was Iranian made and "flew over sensitive installations" in Israel, according to Reuters.
The Times reported that the drone was the new Shahed-129, introduced in Iran in September, which Tehran says has a range of up to 1,200 miles, can stay aloft for 24 hours, and has fire power.

Here is a remarkable book written for all those of us physicians who love thought-producing books which can add much to our general education. It is a joy to find something written by a very well-educated man with an encyclopedic knowledge of all sorts of things. When, as in the case of John Greenway, one finds a man who is an anthropologist, a student of folklore, and the possessor of a wry sense humor, one must read what he writes. Greenway spent time in Australia studying the primitive black people there; he has written several books on anthropology, on primitive music, and on the peoples of the Pacific and their cultures. He is an associate professor of anthropology at the University of Colorado.
The book under review is full of interesting information about us Americans; how some of our ancestors happened to come to this country; what they were really

Major nets pool info, resources amid nuclear threat
News orgs are struggling to keep reporters safe from the radiation leaks that are threatening the northern Japan in the wake of last week's devastating earthquake and tsunami.
The Fukushima I reactor in Okuma, Japan, has suffered a series of extremely dangerous hydrogen explosions and continues to vent radioactive steam into the environment. Newsers are navigating the opposing tasks of staying out of harm's way, should further nuclear crises trouble already-devastated Japan, and reporting what is currently the biggest news story in the world.
"We've gone nowhere near the exclusion zone," David Verdi, NBC News' veep of newsgathering, told Variety on Tuesday. "All we've done is pass by on our way north or south." Verdi said that five major news orgs — NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox and CNN — have conducted group calls during which they share safety information. "That competitive element to what we're doing doesn't come into play when it gets this serious," Verdi said.
Internally, NBC News is putting further measures into place that will keep its reporters safe, including an expert in chemical and nuclear devices who was flown into Tokyo from London by the network.
"He's done a threat assessment," Verdi said. "He's putting barriers up on the windows. He has iodine dosages with him that he can administer, and we have protective masks and protective suits."
Much depends, quite literally, on a trick of the wind in Okuma. The most dangerous aspect of the accident is the steam vented from the coastal reactors.
Some news orgs have pulled their correspondents out entirely, given the instability of the situation.
"We have moved our teams out of Sendai, Japan and we continue to reassess deployments, as the situation warrants," said CBS News veep Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews. Fox News has pulled correspondents back to Tokyo, including Shepard Smith, Adam Housley and Gret Palkot, with David Piper at Yakota airbase.
CNN continues to maintain a presence close to the affected area, with Anderson Cooper anchoring from Akita, north of Sendai. "The situation is under constant review and the safety and well-being of our reporters in the field is our top priority," said a spokesperson for the Turner cabler. "We have several reporters throughout the region and teams in Tokyo as well."
The heightened tensions in Japan during the past few days are eerily familiar to Dick Hoxworth, a former reporter for WGAL-TV in Lancaster, Pa., who led coverage of the Three Mile Island nuclear disaster in 1979. Hoxworth said he believes the widespread media coverage of Japan's risky nuclear drama will give pause to nations weighing the benefits and costs of nuclear power.
"You're going to again have the general public, especially those living near a nuclear power plant, have that feeling of 'Can we really trust what's being told to us?' " Hoxworth predicts.

Clayfeld Holds Onby Robert Pack
from "Clayfeld's Farewell Epistle to Bob Pack" Beneath this mellow harvest moon, I can still picture you--a boy content just fishing with his father from a ledge above a foaming stream. The flailing trout you caught is packed in gleaming ice; the pink stripe all along its side is smeared across black shiny dots that seem to shine with their own light. I'm sure that you can picture me with equal vividness, and though we're not identical, there is a sense in which I am inventing you as much as you're inventing me. In Clayfeld Holds On, Robert Pack offers his readers a comprehensive portrait of his longtime protagonist Clayfeld, who is also Pack's doppelgänger, his alternate self, enacting both the life that the poet has lived and the life he might have lived, given his proclivities and appetites. Poet and protagonist, taken together, are self and consciousness of self, the historical self and the embellished story of that literal self. Written with a masterly ear for rhythm, and interweaving narrative and lyrical passages, the poems recount Clayfeld's formative memories while exploring concepts such as loyalty, generosity, commitment, as well as cosmic phenomena such as the big bang theory and black holes. Through all of this, Pack attempts to find purpose and meaning in an indifferent universe, and to explore the labyrinth of his own proliferating identity.
Speaking Out: Inside the White Houseby Larry Speakes Robert Pack
To be press secretary for the American President is to be uniquely in the know about all that happens in the most important office on earth, the White House. For six years-- longer than any of his predecessors save for Jim Haggerty, Eisenhower's secretary-- Larry Speakes occupied this hot seat for President Ronald Reagan. Now, in his aptly titled account, Speakes recounts the inside story of the Reagan presidency with candor and an uninhibited independence that make Speaking Out not only captivating and sometimes shocking but also essential reading for Americans who want to learn about the untold story of the Reagan administration. Speakes, already a veteran press officer for Presidents Nixon and Ford and Senators Dole and Eastland, took over in 1981, the day chief spokesman Jim Brady was shot in the Hinckley assassination attempt on President Reagan. Now, he takes us behind the scenes to tell what really happened -- in the Reagan-Gorbachev summits, the hostage crisis, the Marcos ouster, the Lebanon Embassy bombing, Reagan's cancer, the KAL-007 shootdown, the Achille Lauro incident, the Daniloff affair, the Libyan bombing, the Challenger disaster, the Iran-Contra affair. Larry Speakes is a down-home Mississippian and has the Southerner's special gift for anecdote and an unerring shrewdness about people coupled with earthy humor.

New England Chick and Oyster PIe
A dish native to Boston that has much merit. It is a bit unusual, very, very good, and it can be prepared at any time during the day, then set aside for supper.
Yield: Serves 8
- 3 cups cooked chicken, cut in large chunks
- 2 cups oysters
- butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- white pepper
- 2 cups medium cream sauce
- pie crust
InstructionsCombine the chicken and oysters in a buttered casserole. Dot with 2 tablespoons of butter, add the salt and pepper, and pour the cream sauce over all. Cover the dish with a pie crust, slit to allow steam to escape. Bake in a hot oven (400 degrees F) for 85 minutes.
Short Cuts: A can of cream of chicken soup mixed with a half can of milk and oyster liquor makes a quick cream sauce. Try leftover mashed potatoes, whipped with egg, as a topping for the pie (instead of pie crust)--bake at 350 degrees F.

Vin Diesel Says His "Hannibal the Conqueror" Trilogy is Moving Forward
Posted: December 22nd, 2012 by
WorstPreviews.com Staff
Back in 2007, Vin Diesel announced that he was working on "Hannibal the Conqueror," a film about the life of Carthaginian military commander Hannibal Barca, which will be made in the original Punic language. Diesel was planning to star in the new film.
Then in 2010, the actor revealed that Tony Scott was attached to direct and that there were talks with Denzel Washington to join the cast. He also said that the story would have to become a trilogy to be told properly.
And now, Diesel has updated his Facebook account with news that the project is moving forward. He wrote: "
When a dream is born in your childhood... When you spend a decade daring to pursue it... The day, a head of a studio says, 'I want to make all three films of your Hannibal trilogy!' It takes a minute to sink in. It's still sinking in.
In the movie, Diesel will star as Hannibal who led an elephant-riding battalion across the Alps to attack Rome in the 3rd Century BC. The actor is now planning to direct as well.

So much for Tony Scott

"It takes a minute to sink in. It's still sinking in."
That's what she said.

Lol Kurs
This could be good lol
on December 22nd, 2012 at 10:39:39 AM
Will the elephants have NOS and he have stupid catch phrases in Punic?
on December 22nd, 2012 at 11:12:53 AM
Is it Disney that's telling him this????? Are they high off of the star wars buyout???? They should have learned by now!!!! Get the water squirter!!! Vin needs to get in a devastating car accident that severs his penis clean off and scars the hell out of his scalp which then forces him to grow in whatever patchwork he calls a hairline. Can't wait for either that to happen, or for this project to fail worse than Lohan at a probation hearing.
on December 22nd, 2012 at 12:11:06 PM
Potential to be the worst trilogy and box office flops of all time? All signs point to YES!
on December 22nd, 2012 at 1:18:43 PM
Why can't a cinematic story be told in two movies, or four? What's so damned magical about the number three? Because it's the first prime number? Because it's the first number of stable support legs, as in 'tripod'? And if so, why do people say they need a trilogy, and then proceed to make a fourth, fifth and sixth film? Enquiring minds want to know.
As for this, I don't care. Hannibal is a relatively minor historical figure, even if he did help cement Rome's growing imperial and military power, but regardless, I think Vin wants to do it just so he can rub his d*ck on an elephant's back.
on December 22nd, 2012 at 1:47:21 PM
It would be cheaper to just give him a Spartacus type shoe string budget project on 'Starz'.
on December 22nd, 2012 at 1:47:30 PM
How many sh*tty franchises does this douchebag need at once? Fast, Ridd*ck, Hannibal, wasn't he also supposed to be in Justin Lin's Terminator movie as well? WTF?
on December 22nd, 2012 at 1:47:59 PM
No wonder Tony Scott killed himself.
on December 22nd, 2012 at 1:53:00 PM
@Saulsilver: you're forgetting he has said he wants to come back for another XXX film too.
Next thing you know he'll try to take over the Tooth Fairy 'franchise'.

Thanks alot
Tony Scott
This guy really thinks he can direct a big budget trilogy?
Well bless his heart
on December 22nd, 2012 at 10:18:17 PM
"which will be made in the original Punic language."
Brilliant idea. And Gladiator should have been in Latin with English subtitles.
Seriously, who thinks up these ideas?

Skylight Music Theatre gets ambitious with 'El Cimarrón'
Like Tina Turner, the Skylight Music Theatre never does anything nice and easy.
As Exhibit A, take "El Cimarrón," which opens Friday in Broadway Theatre Center's intimate Studio Theatre, 158 N. Broadway. The late Hans Werner Henze called his composition, for a bass-baritone singer, a flutist, a percussionist and a guitarist, a recital for four musicians, and that's how it's often performed. »Read Full Article

Christmas is over, but we're not done making our wish list.
With a new year comes a fresh start, and hopes and dreams for what might be in 2014. Emmy love for an oft-overlooked show. A shake-up in country music. A restraining order preventing Miley Cyrus' foam finger from entering the BMO Harris Bradley Center for her March 9 show.

South Korea has named the next contractor to participate in the planned $1.1 billion upgrade of its 134 KF-16C/D Block 52 Fighting Falcon fighter jet fleet. And the winner is: Raytheon (NYSE: RTN ) .
South Korea's upgrade program got under way last summer, when the country chose Britain's BAE Systems (NASDAQOTH: BAESY ) over Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT ) to serve as prime integrator in the project -- a surprising development, given that Lockheed built the planes in the first place.
The upgrades that will be made are substantial, including the installation of new software, a new fire control computer, radar, data exchange system, display, and new, more advanced air-to-air and air-to-ground ordnance. Raytheon's role in all this will be to supply its new Raytheon Advanced Combat Radar, an active electronically scanned array radar system, in the 134 planes.
Deliveries will begin in 2016. Raytheon's share of the $1.1 billion in project payouts was not revealed.

AMRI received a five-year contract worth $43 million from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) to support NINDS' initiative to treat CNS diseases. AMRI will provide chemistry and other drug discovery technologies for the institute's Medicinal Chemistry for Neurotherapeutics Program (MCNP), part of the NIH Blueprint Neurotherapeutics Network.
The financing depends on the number of approved projects and availability of funds. An initial amount of up to $10 million applies to the first phase of the project, expected to begin this month, with the objective of delivering at least one Phase I candidate.
AMRI will begin providing medicinal chemistry services to neuroscientists throughout the U.S. The company will utilize its drug discovery capabilities involving exploratory chemistry, hit-to-lead chemistry, and lead optimization. Specific services to be provided include compound design, synthesis, and management together with in vitro metabolic testing.
AMRI has been collaborating with NINDS since 2005 on treatments for spinal muscular atrophy. "After a highly competitive, rigorous application process, AMRI was selected for this contract award because of our proven track record on projects of similar scope with a number of global pharmaceutical companies," according to AMRI's chairman, president, and CEO, Thomas E. D'Ambra, Ph.D.
"The company's deep bench strength, scale of operations, and strong global footprint enables us to consistently deliver high performance and quality for our clients on a cost-effective basis," adds Dr. D'Ambra. "This significant award demonstrates the NIH's new focus on helping support the translation of basic research discoveries in areas of unmet medical need to potential drug candidates."

AS COUNCIL Majority Leader Curtis Jones Jr. began yesterday's budget hearing on the City Controller's Office, he was joined in Council chambers by only four of his 15 colleagues.
Some would wander in later, and some would leave. But at no point during Controller Alan Butkovitz's testimony was a majority of Council members present.
Unless, that is, you ask City Council.
Council now has 16 members, due to a vacancy, but a quorum still requires nine to be present. That's a rare sight during the budget hearings, but the meetings can go on even with only a few members present so long as no one calls for a quorum check or vote.

FLIGHT FROM CUBA: IN HAVANA; Dollars Define Cuba's Haves And Have-Nots
By MARIA NEWMAN,
Published: August 28, 1994
HAVANA, Aug. 27— When thousands of Cubans rioted against Government security forces here early this month, they shouted slogans against President Fidel Castro. They also hurled rocks at hotels where dollar-paying foreign tourists were staying and at stores that sell goods only for dollars.
"You work, and you earn 100 pesos a month, and you can't afford to live in this country," said Jose Bolano Rodriguez, whose stepdaughter was arrested in the riot that prompted Mr. Castro to let people escape freely in rafts.
Mr. Bolano's resentment points to a new phenomenon in this Communist-ruled island's long history of confrontation with the United States. More than 30 years after Mr. Castro's revolution, Cuba has once again become a country of two societies -- one with dollars and one without. And increasingly Cubans resent it.
Mr. Bolano, who lives a few steps from the coastline where people are making their escape, has no plans to leave Cuba. But like many of those who were clambering aboard homemade rafts this week, he complained that the Cuban Government under Mr. Castro had sacrificed its people in its zeal to earn more dollars to save its troubled economy. "It is we Cubans who have become the tourists here," he said.
He said even native goods like cigars and rum were far beyond the reach of most Cubans, who earn salaries in pesos, the official currency, not dollars. So too are certain nightclubs and resorts, because they are reserved for tourists.
In an effort to shore up its shrunken economy after the loss of Soviet subsidies, Cuba has in recent years tried to rebuild the tourist business in Havana and other areas. The aim is to create jobs and lure Europeans, Canadians and others here to spend hard currency: foreign tourists visiting Cuba can pay only in dollars, no matter what country they come from.
Mr. Castro has urged Cubans to be patient with scarcity so more dollars can be funneled to the hotel and beach resort industry. But resentment and anger are building. Trade in Dollars Allowed
To ease the tensions, the Government decided last year to let Cubans keep money in dollars and trade in dollars, although the peso is still considered the official currency. The Government runs "diplostores" in which goods ranging from cognac to canned ham to beach shorts are sold for dollars to Cubans and tourists alike.
The majority of people complain they cannot afford such goods. The only Cubans with regular access to dollars are those with contacts in the outside world -- people who have helpful relatives abroad or who work for the tourist industry or a certain branch of the Government.
A dollar trades on the streets from anywhere from 80 to 120 pesos, which for some people is nearly a month's wages.
"Out of necessity, many of our girls of 13, 14 and 15 are turning to prostitution so they can get dollars to buy clothes," said Marbel Betancourt Gonzalez, who sat beside a raft today waiting for the weather to clear. "If you don't have dollars, you can't live. But I will not subject myself to disease just for some tourist.
"It's not right that tourists can go into the diplostores and their children come out sucking on lollipops and chocolate and your child sees them and you know he can't have any. They cry. What do you tell them?"
Today, as storm clouds loomed and word came of rough waters in the Florida Straits, dozens of people were on the beaches putting the finishing touches on their rafts and organizing their belongings. At Cojimar, east of Havana, some people have thrown up shacks and lean-tos as they wait for the skies to clear.
Nearly everyone said they were leaving because they could no longer tolerate their harsh economic conditions.
Ms. Betancourt is taking only the clothes on her back, a compass, her high-school certificate and a photo of her 4-year-old-son, Jesus Lamas Betancourt, whom she is leaving behind with his father.
She cried when she showed a picture of him. "I can't help him here anymore," she said. Hoping for Home in U.S.
Like most of the refugees, Ms. Betancourt has every hope that she will be allowed to stay in the United States and will eventually be able to help her son, despite President Clinton's new policy of funneling the refugees to the Guantanamo Bay Naval Station.
Mayra Ochendo Abreu, who sat with Ms. Betancourt on the beach in Cojimar, also said she had no choice but to leave. "I will risk my daughter's life rather than stay here where there is no food," she said. Beside her sat her slender 7-year-old daughter, Dallana, who wore a hat made of woven palm fronds for her voyage at sea.
Ms. Ochendo said she had sold all her belongings to pay for spaces on the raft for herself and her daughter. "I cry that I am doing this, but I have to," she said. "Here we will die of hunger."
Most of the people leaving in rafts appear to be young men who work at low-paying jobs. As two of the few women traveling, Ms. Ochendo and Ms. Betancourt have banded together for the tense wait.
Ms. Ochendo ticked off shortages of items ranging from milk -- daily milk rations go only to Cubans under the age of 7 and over 55 -- to flour to underwear to products like sanitary napkins.
To a large extent, the anguish of those making the treacherous journey has its seeds in the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Conservation Status
Queen conchs have been utilized by man since prehistoric times--for food, pottery, tools, dishes, adornment and for fish hooks. Their numbers are declining now more than ever. In the Bahamas, for example, it is believed that deep water populations sustain the smaller shallow water populations. Queen conchs are not yet an endangered species, yet the industry based on fishing for them is endangered and they are listed on Appendix II of CITES, meaning that their trade is subject to quotas. Some type of management needs to be implemented in the Caribbean, for example, to prevent the rapid disappearance of these animals.
The slow moving nature of the conchs, their pinkish-rose shells, and their frequency in shallow waters make them an easy target for fisherman.
The family Strombidae is mainly extinct, surviving for the most part in the W.Indian region and the Indo-Pacific.
