This park is working out well for daily runs so I keep going to the well, and will probably continue doing so; it's nearby, it has interesting trails with a bit of vertical as well as flats. That allows me to get in a decent run before dark, and if it does get dark, it's less creepy than the wooded mountain parks.
Distance was 11.29 miles, time 2:15, elevation gain/loss 1,341 feet, avg. pace 12:02, and best pace 7:26.
The lack of forest cover does not seem to prevent the nightly dinner buffet consisting of mule deer:
There are more blooms out every time due to the recent warmth and snow. These shrubs are everywhere (I forget the name) and they have an amazing fragrance that floats over the trails as you run by:
Green is starting to creep into the browns and grays along the trails:

I felt sluggish and stiff for almost the entire run. Must be a delayed reaction from the weekend.

Taking a cue from her friend Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez is laying bare her broken heart through song. The singer just released 'Rule The World,' the first tune off her upcoming album, and it sounds like a breakup anthem aimed at ex Justin Bieber.
"Our love was made to rule the world / You came and broke the perfect girl / Forget you ever knew my name," Selena sings. Ouch.
In an interview in January, the 20-year-old hinted that the breakup fueled her new music. "I think for me it was actually interesting to see that towards the middle of me recording my record, a big turn happened to me and it was incredible to see how I applied that to music because I've never done that before and it's great," Selena told MTV News.
While she didn't confirm that any of the songs are about her split with Justin, she did say that the "big turn" affected both her personal and professional life.
"I think the older I'm getting the more I'm just kind of like I'm cool to share my side of the stories as much as I can, so I'm having a lot of fun," she said.

You can also say that since Perl and Python are both moving towards Parrot, via Perl 6, Ponie, or whatever those pythonites are doing, using both shouldn't be as hard - libraries should theoretically be sharable, and so forth. I think that the latter point is quite weak, but that with enough massaging you can convince them that the prior one is correct. Say you will be losing them money ;-). IMHO, however, going against the trend at the company is not a good practice - it will cost them extra work to clean up after you leave. They will need to add Perl to the requirement list of the next employee, even if they don't want to. I think a compromise is a better idea - learn python, do a trial period, and then work out a solution when you have more of a case against Python. If you will, that is. Maybe you'll like it after all? Lastly, if your boss knows both, why should he take your word for Perl being better, if you don't know Python?

Sultan drops Lakewood on Senior Night
The Lakewood Cougars wrestling team put up a fight against the Sultan Turks on their Jan. 17 Senior Night. Many of the matches were close, relying on points for the decisions. But Sultan won just enough to beat the Cougars 40-36 on overall score.
The night started out with Coach Tom OHara thanking his seniors for all the hard work theyve put in on the mat this season and in the past. The night would mark the last home meet for Jasper Hauer, Aaron Leonard, Will Wedekind. Wedekind went out in style, scoring a monster pin with eight seconds remaining in the first round of his match with Sultans Ben Schilling. Wedekind got Schilling into an arm bar midway through the round and refused to let him go.
At 189 pounds Leonard bumped up to wrestle slightly heavier than his natural 171. Not only was he wrestling out of his usual weight class, but he had a formidable opponent in Jake Estrella. However, Leonard held his own through the first round, scoring an escape to trail 4-1 after two Estrella takedowns. Leonard spent most of his time on the ground but never allowed Estrella to pin him, losing 10-1 on points after all six minutes.
At 140 pounds Lakewood again got a solid effort but fell short on points. Austin Schulz fought through a vicious swinging drop in the first round to trail 4-1. His opponent Travis Turner consistently shot at Schulzs legs with success on takedowns. Schulz kept countering with escapes but he was conceding two points for every one he scored. In the end, Turner did enough to win 12-5.
Steve Bingham gave Lakewood a big boost of enthusiasm with his victory in the 145 pound weight division. Bingham picked up David Huckabone for an early takedown to lead 2-0. He then forced Huckabone into a nearfall, scoring three points in the process. The 5-0 edge looked safe, but Bingham was only warming up. After trying a series of leg locks to turn Huckabone, Bingham finally found the right combination and put Huckabone in a precarious nearfall position. The Sultan man squirmed and attempted to bridge his way out of trouble, but to no avail. Bingham casually waited for the squirming to die down and then pinned Huckabone at 1:15 of the first round.
They were tough, said Coach OHara. Were getting a little better all the time, but I think we could have done better tonight. The key match came at 152 pounds.
At 152 Billy McKeever nearly scored a monumental upset for the Cougars, taking on highly touted Abe Bray. Bray finished as a placer in last years State tournament but could not subdue McKeever after two rounds. With the score knotted 2-2 Bray made his third period count by stealing away six points to win 8-2. It was a tough loss for McKeever, but an impressive performance nonetheless.
Lakewood scored another pin at 160 pounds where Jason Mueller gave the Cougars another six points with another first round pin in the last match of the night. It happened so fast that the result was never in doubt for Mueller.
All around Lakewood turned in a solid effort and the match could have gone either way. Sultan capitalized with several much-needed pins to claim the eventual four point victory.

Mayor Mitch Landrieu's office is recommending that the New Orleans City Council defer action Thursday on a proposed deal to terminate the World Trade Center organization's lease with the city while investigators figure out why concrete soffits fell from the 33rd story of the World Trade Center building Monday.
The City Council was scheduled to vote Thursday on a proposed deal to pay the private trade promotion group $2 million to walk away from its lease of the vacant World Trade Center building, which runs through 2019. Terminating the lease would allow the city, which owns the tower through the New Orleans Building Corp., to more easily pursue redevelopment options for the skyscraper, the nation's original World Trade Center.
But in light of Monday's mishap in which the underside of the roof on one side of the building fell nearly 400 feet, Cedric Grant, deputy mayor for facilities, infrastructure and community development, said he thinks it's best to delay the vote until structural engineers can tell the city what happened so it can answer council members' questions.
"We don't need to get sidetracked by this particular issue, " Grant said.
The World Trade Center club has hired a forensic engineer to figure out what happened. The city has had building inspectors from the Department of Safety and Permits investigate. Reports are due Tuesday, but Grant said he encouraged the trade group to report back sooner.
"What we know right now preliminarily is that the soffit is a piece of the facade, and not part of the structure of the building, " Grant said.
Until the trade club and the city figure out what happened, the Trade Center, which was vacated when its namesake group moved its offices and the Plimsoll Club to Canal Place, the building will remain fenced off.
"It warranted us to barricade the structure, and that will stay in place until we complete our structural analysis, " said Grant, who is also director of the New Orleans Building Corp.
An examination of building inspection records did not turn up any problems at the Trade Center, Grant said, but it's possible that some soffits on a lower floor were removed a few years ago because of concerns.
As the lessee, the World Trade Center organization is responsible for maintenance, upkeep and operations at the building.
Although the building has been the subject of several failed redevelopment efforts since 1998, Grant does not believe that distraction over the past 13 years caused the trade group to defer maintenance on the tower, which was built in 1967. "I don't think it was a lack of maintenance. When there was roof damage, they repaired the roof. When there were elevator problems, they fixed the elevator. I think they've kept in it in good working order, " Grant said.
The trade group did not return a phone call Tuesday seeking updates.
Assuming the city is able to move ahead with the lease termination agreement it reached with the trade group, Grant says he hopes to begin a public planning process in January to figure out what to do with the property.
Grant said that a number of groups have come to him expressing interest in doing condominiums or hotels. Others have expressed the idea that a cultural attraction belongs at the 2 Canal St. site, which is between the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas and the Hilton New Orleans Hotel.
Asked if plans for the site could include demolishing the iconic X-shaped building, Grant said: "Everything's on the table."
The city will likely hold public hearings, then solicit proposals.
Mark Romig, chief executive of the New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corp., said the site is of great strategic importance, and the tourism industry plans to be an active participant in working alongside the city and community in devising plans. "That's a strategically important location and the tourism industry has a role to play in the reimagining of that location."

MOLTKE TOWNSHIP - An extensive project focused on improving Silver Creek's water quality and spearheaded by a multi-county conservation organization is finished.
The Silver Creek "Super Project" brought together resources from many local, state and federal organizations, government or otherwise, to replace a series of culverts where the Ocqueoc River tributary crossed roads in the township, Patrick Ertel, Huron Pines project manager said. The total cost was $447,000, including in-kind services. Volunteers helped as well.
"To me, it's the importance of prioritizing and then bundling the priorities, and thinking of the watershed as a whole, not just a series of sites," he said. "When you can get people to buy into that, I really think that the flexibility and the initiative to do as much as possible is maximized."
Over 3 1/2 years, the project replaced 10 crossings, including two driveway culverts, Ertel said. The rest are on Church and Beech Grove highways, and North Curtis and Spens roads. By widening these crossings and hardening the road surfaces, the project eased fish passage into Silver Creek, lowered water temperatures and reduced the amount of dirt being washed into the creek.
The Ocqueoc, once a renowned trout stream, has been degraded over the years, Ocqueoc River Watershed Commission member Charlie Lyon said. Its falls and numerous lakes are a boon to tourists and residents alike, and helping an important tributary should help fish populations.
"The Little Ocqueoc and Silver Creek are very high-value nursery streams for brook and rainbow trout," he said. "Our attempt was to improve the habitat, and that's what our goal was."
These crossings were paid for with grants and donations from many organizations, including Great Lakes Restoration Initiative money, the Great Lakes Commission, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality and Wolverine Power Cooperative.
Other contributors were the Headwaters and Paul H. Young chapters of Trout Unlimited, the Michigan Fly Fishing Club, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and Presque Isle County, Ertel said.
"Anyone who we felt had a vested interest in this, we leveraged what they had to give," he said.
The Ocqueoc River Watershed Commission put up $500, one-third of its annual budget, to get the project started, council member and Drain Commissioner Charlie Lyon said. Their watershed study, completed by Huron Pines in 2007, served as the guide, and Bearinger, Bismarck, Case and Ocqueoc townships contributed by helping to fund the commission.
The Presque Isle County Road Commission did much of the excavation work, with Moltke Township buying about $8,000 in gravel, Ertel said. Most of the road crossings were starting to fall apart, restricting fish movement or both. By partnering with the road commission, Huron Pines was able to get about $100,000 of labor, as well as $8,000 in savings by having the commission apply for permits, Ertel said.
In exchange, the road commission was able to fix these deteriorating road crossings for a fraction of the price, Superintendent Gerald Smigelski said.
"A couple of them were culverts that were concrete from the 1930s, and they were falling apart," he said. "And with the high costs for replacing the culverts, we got to share the cost with them."
This wasn't the first project where the road commission partnered with Huron Pines, Smigelski said, but it was the largest. As such, it was something of a learning process for both.
"We would be more than happy to participate in a similar type of project with Huron Pines," he said. "Along with the USFWS, they were instrumental in supplying the funding for this."
While construction may be done, Lyon and others on the watershed commission will continue to regularly monitor water quality and flows at various points throughout the Ocqueoc, he said. By measuring cloudiness, logging temperatures and looking at bacterial, phosphates and nitrates levels, they'll have data to show any changes in the river's ecosystem.
"It's about improving the quality of habitat, but also making sure it stays the way it does right now," he said.
Brad Jensen, Huron Pines executive director, said he loved how many different players aligned to help a watershed that most outside of the area don't know about.
"The project was so big that we felt like now that it's over and successful, it really shows what a community can accomplish when they put their best foot forward," he said.

In the midst of the Hudson County Tournament, The Jersey Journal Top 10 has undergone a slight shakeup this week.
Although the top three teams remain the same, Marist (15-8) slides up to No. 4 after defeating Snyder (14-6), which moved down to No. 5. The Royal Knights ousted the Tigers in the tournament's quarterfinals on Thursday behind gutsy performances from their starters, who played the full 32 minutes of the game.
The other swap occurred at the lower end of the rankings as Weehawken (14-8), climbed up to No. 9 and Union City (11-11) dropped to No. 10. The Indians, who elected not to play in the Hudson County Tournament, have won 10 straight games since Marist transfer McKay LeDuke entered the lineup.
Despite losing this week, Hudson Catholic (20-3) remains at No. 2 after pushing Newark East Side, ranked No. 1 in The Star-Ledger Top 20 and No. 20 in the USA Today Super 25, to the brink in a 52-48 overtime defeat.

As is usually the case the media seems to be working hard to put a narrative on this one way or the other depending on who you ask. The reality of the situation is that if we simply keep to equal protection under the law instead of instituting these ridiculous hate crime laws, these sorts of things probably wouldn't happen. If they did though it wouldn't be such a story it would be a small blurb about how some idiot had self inflicted wounds and made a false report.
However because of the constant pressure to push a divide in between races, genders, and those with different sexual preferences, we are all seen as separate groups. This woman is a moron and a criminal who happens to be gay. That is all.

Go back to sleep under your bridge troll. They have no proof of any cheating, if they did they would have taken his titles long ago. You idiots out there just can't stand the idea of hard work and perseverance paying off. Let's be honest, a French competition, entered by an American, who has been working hard towards victory for years? Did you have any doubt who would win?

Say what you like but me personally? I find swearing from time to time rather cathartic. And there are times when you speak to a moron of a caliber that just merits bringing out those words that can be referenced simply with one letter. I'm tired of the political correctness that is being thrust upon every member of this country. And I have to wonder just who decided that these were the words we couldn't say? Where did this all start? For every curse word you have a synonym that means the same thing only with a less "in your face" connotation. Furthermore those used simply as expletives are replaced by other words given the same emphasis and expressing similar feelings, albeit less effectively, in normal everyday conversation.
For those of you saying that you never apologize, in a matter of foreign policy as a representative of the people you would be right. But if this man truly feels he was wrong he should apologize to the people for his comments. However if like me he understands that these reporters and our politicians are all grown up's who have full fledged freedom of speech and that he did nothing wrong simply stating what he thinks, then he shouldn't even hint at an apology.

The Libs just can't stand the idea that this man used what talent he had and simply worked hard to achieve a level of greatness that they can't conceive of. He isn't the second coming but he surely is a great role model for the children of today to look up to. They don't have many any more and it would be nice if they could leave just one alone. If you have the evidence then put it out, if you don't then shut up and sit down. I'm tired of unfounded accusations and half truths running in the media around the world and becoming more viable than the truth simply because it's repeated again and again. This idiocy will continue until the masses stop believing it. So wake up out there! Not just in the US but around the world we need to wake up and understand that what the media says isn't the end all and be all. Think for yourselves! please.

What type of guns do you think were allowed under the second amendment in the time of the founders Jason? They were state of the art, exactly what the military was carrying. And just who was the "militia" back in those times? The "militia" was every able bodied man (adjusted for current times I'm sure women would be included) who was not already serving. The reason for this was to protect our homes and our country in the event of an invasion at the time.
That's what I have to say about your definitions and supposed logic that wouldn't pass the muster of an 8th grade critical thinking quiz.
Furthermore all this talk of limiting guns and moving towards less and less is a matter of degrees. Do you think murder will simply stop just because guns are against the law? Do you really believe that criminals and the criminally insane will follow those laws rather than finding some other way of obtaining the weapons they seek? All you will accomplish with legislation in this direction is to make sure that law abiding citizens are always at a disadvantage in these situations. You also seem to over look the canisters that were tossed in. Do you believe that it's impossible for someone to use a molotov cocktail, or some crudely made bomb to do well over the damage done in even this tragedy? You seem to live in a world of make believe where the government can do anything and do it effectively. Believe what you want, but my government can't even make a pencil.

@ brother. You can keep on babbling about how the other republicans cheated… but you have no proof of anything. You just slam a bunch of unfounded accusations out there hoping to ruin the credibility of everyone but Ron Paul. The problem with this strategy is it doesn't work on people who are actually paying attention to what's going on. Therefore it won't be working here. Have a nice day and just remember to leave the leftist tactics to the left.

McCain helps to circle the wagons around Obama? Are we sure he didn't lose on purpose in 08? The man is either the biggest fool I've seen in a long time or he simply wants what Obama is selling. He wants our country to receive more attacks from these extremists. Those are the only conclusions to be drawn from his actions. Stupidity and incompetence. or another radical in government office. I'm still disgusted that he won his last primary. I guess we'll have to wait until he goes the way of Robert Bird to get rid of this political hack.

It sounds like a good idea if you only think about it for a few seconds to take guns away. Then no one can get shot right? Wrong. Guns can be obtained through methods that are by no means legal. You only disarm the everyday citizen, not the criminal and certainly not the killer. You'll make gun crimes easier to perpetrate and you'll make shootings like this far more deadly in the long run by disarming Americans wholesale.
Next time you take those two seconds and come up with one of these great solutions think a little bit more. It's what happens with you liberals on every issue. You get a "feeling" and you run with it without a second thought.
Furthermore even in the hypothetical world, say that you were able to get rid of all the guns. People can still kill without them. What's next? no knives? no blunt objects? Nothing we can't ingest to avoid poisoning? Going to cut off everyone's hands to avoid strangling? Where does it end?
At some point people have to grow up and take responsibility for their actions. The reason this happened is not because of a gun, it's because of the man who used it!

Rubio as with many politicians misses the point. Job #1 is to secure the border. Until that is done there is no point passing any "comprehensive" immigration bill. It has been demonstrated even as far back as the Reagan administration that politicians cannot be trusted to secure the border. We don't have to as other comments are saying "close down the border entirely". We need to secure the border so the only people crossing are doing so under the law. When that happens then we can talk about what to do about those already here illegally. What many people leave out of this equation is that they broke the law when they came here.

To create new taxing authority for the federal government, is an act of violation against the constitution. He even goes so far as to contradict himself within his decision.

Those of you saying we need a constitutional amendment that prevents this, I'm sorry but that doesn't solve it. We need to get rid of these justices who are ok with laws that violate the constitution. We need to fix the school system that raises these morons. This all began when we moved from constitutional law to case law where one bad decision can lead to so many more. If Romney wins and the Republicans do get in hold on, because everything will change. And to you Republicans, be prepared to hear the voice of the American people loud and clear the second you get into office.

This should say something along the lines of…

I'm a democrat because it's easier to let government do the thinking for me. I'm a democrat because they give me presents while conservatives want me to take care of myself.
The truth is that anyone who thinks like this kid in the ad should be embarrassed to admit being a democrat. These days it has become a party that should have no following. They push lies, ruin economies, and surrender freedoms to a government that is completely out of control.

Isn't it amazing how many liberals seem to be found doing something or saying something racist? I mean, if I didn't know better I would think the democratic party is the party of racists, bigots, and elitists. Good thing the main stream media sets the story straight telling us it's ok for this hollywood star, that talk show host, and that government official to do or say racist things. If it weren't for them I wouldn't know what to believe.

MARION, Ind. – Seeking the third win of the season, the seventh-ranked Davenport women's soccer team got it in dramatic fashion Tuesday night. Natalie McHale scored the lone goal at 14:01 and the Panthers had to defend it for the remainder of the match against an aggressive Indiana Wesleyan.
Davenport completes its second longest road trip of the season and will now open DU Turf Field against Grace Bible Saturday at noon.
McHale, the only Panther to net a goal in all three contests, connected the match-winner with a header off of Tam Grzybowski's corner kick from the right side.
The Wildcats (1-2) started to pick up an offensive rhythm late in the opening half, highlighted by an opened shot robbed by Kilee Lovelace. IWU's Lizzie Rittenhouse fired a shot that was blocked by Michelle Marcus. The ball would rebound off a DU defender and just before it was able to cross the goal line, Lovelace reached high with her foot to prevent the tying goal.
It was a wild second half, with the Wildcats outshooting the Panthers 8-1. Michelle Marcus had to make five of her six saves in the latter period while several banked off the post. Davenport's only shot in the half came in the 60th minute by Shameeka Fishley.
Post-Match Quote – Head Coach Chris Allen
On the match
"IWU played extremely hard tonight and we knew it would be tough fighting complacency coming off two big wins we had in Florida. Keeping focus on every match we play is a must for us, and we have to prepare just as well for top 10 opponents as we do any opponent we face. I am confident we will bounce back from this tonight but I have to give credit to IWU tonight. They gave us a great test."
On Kilee Lovelace's Save in the First Half
"Having players step up like Kilee did tonight has been the story of our season so far. Kilee played great tonight, out of position and sacrificed for the team, just as many others have done for us before. Her clearance was athletic and a class piece of defending."
Post-Match Notes
Natalie McHale's
three-match scoring streak is the longest since Lizzie Paul net four straight
last season...Davenport wins the inaugural meeting against Indiana Wesleyan...It is
the first time the Panthers were outshot by an opponent since Westmont in the quarterfinal
of the NAIA National Championship last season...Kilee Lovelace has seen every
minute this season, spanning up to 270 minutes...Tam Grzybowski and Michelle
Marcus have played a full 90 minutes for the second time this season

We knocked on doors with a few balloons and a book, along with information about the school and how parents can keep on top of what their children were doing.
Parents and students alike greeted her warmly, and Richtig said the idea was to provide families with a welcoming and friendly face, making the experience of being a new student a little less intimidating.
And, the visits also gave the principal a little peek into the world of her students. You can learn a lot during a 10-minute visit. Knowing where children come from, and the environment in which they were raised, helps educators anticipate and solve problems, she said.
Richtig, I've always thought, was a brilliant principal. Today she teaches others to be top administrators at Central Michigan University's School of Educational Administration and Community Learning.
I was reminded of that day as I read a report in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel about efforts to bridge the gap between home and schools with such visits.
My friend Erin Richards writes that test score data is beginning to show that students whose families receive home visits are doing better in school.
"For those rich or poor, the home is the place where people feel most at peace and most in control," Carrie Rose, executive director of the Parent/Teacher Home Visit Project in Sacramento, Calif., told Richards.
"Teachers often complain about low turnout at parent-teacher conferences or about never seeing parents in school, but parents who didn't have positive experiences as students themselves are often wary. The dynamic is reversed when a teacher enters a parent's home."
Richards writes that Rose's program "requires participating teachers to pair up and conduct two home visits throughout the school year -- one in the summer before school starts and another during the first semester.
"The first visit focuses on relationship-building and a personal invite to get the parent in the door for the school's first parent night. The second visit addresses the nitty-gritty of academics, the student's progress and what that parent needs to be doing to help the child succeed."
Richards reported that in Kalish's experience, about a third of parents will agree immediately when a teacher asks to meet at their house. Another third are uncertain -- and a third say "Absolutely not. And of course, those are the people who need us the most."
Schools in St. Louis are working with the Estelle W. and Karen S. Kalish Foundation, which runs several non-profit ventures focused on literacy and closing the achievement gap between minority and white students.
At a St. Louis school that has been working with Kalish for three years, administrators reported that among the lowest performers, state test scores in reading and writing and math increased by a third. Office referrals are down by close to 90 percent from three years ago.
"I've been astounded at what this program has done for our school, in terms of tone, parent support, attendance and discipline," the principal told Richards. "It's a lot of work, but you do see the benefits."
I'd love to hear from Grand Rapids area teachers to see if they've tried reaching out in this manner, and if they had positive results.

Supremes go live … again
The historically insular U.S. Supreme Court has of late taken more and more baby steps toward opening itself up to the way the rest of the world operates, including releasing more and more audio tapes of oral arguments in high profile cases. Last week we posted a note about same-day audio on the Guantanamo Detainees case. This week, the Supremes did the same, making audio available for this week's arguments in the Enemy Combatant Detention and Cheney Energy Task Force cases. Audio links are available, as always, at the superb PBS Online NewsHour's Supreme Court Watch website. (The links will inevitably roll of the site's front page, but you can always find them at the archive page.)

13-year-old Maine boy leads police on chase
14-year-old was passenger in car
Police say a 13-year-old boy is facing charges after leading police on a high-speed chase.
Officials say the chase began at 2:30 a.m. Saturday when a Kennebec County Sheriff's Office deputy approached a suspicious van along Route 3 in China.
According to a press release, the driver led the deputy on a chase for about 8 miles toward Augusta, where he finally stopped when he saw a spike strip placed in the road by Augusta police.
Police identified the driver as a 13-year-old boy and the passenger as his 14-year-old stepbrother. The van belonged to their mother's boyfriend.
Authorities say the boys were released to their mother, but that the 13-year-old was later arrested after the van owner said the boy assaulted him during an argument after the chase.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Who knew that Yorkies are so popular among dog-owners on the Staten Island? National Public Radio, that's who.
Recently, the radio station did a story and published a map noting which breeds of registered dogs were most popular in certain areas. Citywide, the Health Department's records show that small dogs tend to have the run of this town. Mixed-breed dogs are the most popular, but Yorkies, Shih Tzus, Chihuahuas, and Malteses round out the top five.
Staten Islanders largely fall into step with this pattern. Mixed breeds are most common almost everywhere. But, speaking broadly, Yorkies predominate along the North, East and South shores. Shih Tzus have the run of the West Shore and towns like Annadale and Arden Heights. Small pockets, in and around West Brighton, Silver Lake and Tottenville, break from the rest of the city. In these communities, plenty of labs are registered, and you'll also find German shepherds.
NPR's story does mention that only about one in five dogs citywide are registered, so the analysis is somewhat skewed. For the record, folks, it's illegal not to register your dog with the Health Department.
These results surprised me. I see all kinds of dogs out and about and in certain areas, like Stapleton, where I used to live, pit bulls still seem to be all the rage, like they are in Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn, but they didn't show up on NPR's map.
Recently, with the Westminster Kennel Club show looming just ahead -- next Monday and Tuesday, Feb. 11 and 12 -- the Today show rolled out the five most popular dogs in America -- not one of which is among the top five in New York City. Nationwide, the top five are the bulldog, the beagle, the German shepherd, the golden Labrador and the Labrador retriever.
If you own a dog, what kind? Mutt or pure-bred? Why did you choose what you chose? Why do you like having a dog?
As any of you who have been reading my column for awhile might remember, I was deathly afraid of dogs at the age of 6 when we got our first one. But it didn't take long until the German shepherd captured my heart. My brother also owned a black Lab named Ancho, and she was one of the best dogs I've ever known.
I tend to like big dogs, but no matter what size you get, if you don't take the time to train them well, most of them are nightmarish to live with. Which means someone has to be home with them the first couple years of their lives and you have to keep them close by so you can correct bad behaviors immediately. You can't come home after a day of work and reprimand a puppy for something that happened hours earlier. They don't make the connection.
Which means I can't get a dog right now, though I want one badly. I'm not a cat person, though I know plenty are. The two we tried to care for when I was little both ran away. Maybe we were doing something wrong, because none of our dogs headed for the hinterlands.
When the time comes that I can get a dog, what would you recommend? I was recently dissuaded from getting a St. Bernard, but I do remember a really great one we always used to stop and pet when my grandmother took us to a park near Lake Erie.
Thanks for reading -- and think big. I've embedded the map below that shows what dogs are where. Take a look.

Kristin Bothur v. Thomas Bothur
CORRECTED 1 Supplemental Order regarding Attorneys Fees—Defendant's Motion for Contempt # 322.50
In this court's memorandum of decision issued October 22, 2010, on the defendant's motion for contempt, the court awarded counsel fees to the defendant and ordered his attorney to file an affidavit of counsel fees within 30 days "and within such shall detail the specific activity undertaken for time he claims to be related to the contempt claim." The court gave the plaintiff "30 days thereafter to file an objection or seek a hearing on the motion; if the court receives either, it will schedule a hearing; otherwise, it will decide the matter on the papers." The court now issues this supplemental order regarding attorneys fees. See Taylor v. King, 121 Conn.App. 105, 18, 994 A.2d 330 (2010).
On November 12, 2010, the former attorney for the defendant filed an affidavit of counsel fees. The court has carefully reviewed that affidavit. As our Supreme Court has noted, "Connecticut courts traditionally examine the factors enumerated in rule 1.5(a) of the Rules of Professional Conduct in calculating a reasonable attorneys fee award." Simms v. Chaisson, 277 Conn. 319, 332 (2006).2 The hourly rate charged by the plaintiff's attorney is a reasonable one for attorneys practicing in matrimonial and post-judgment proceedings in the judicial district of Tolland. His attorney proceeded skillfully in this matter. Although the parties also litigated the plaintiff's motions for modification # 339 and # 364 before the court, the issues completely overlapped. After considering the factors set forth in rule 1.5(a), the court finds the amount of time claimed by his attorney to be reasonable, and awards a reasonable attorneys fee award to the defendant in the amount of $14,100.
As previously stated in the memorandum of decision, these moneys are not due to the defendant's counsel immediately. The plaintiff takes care of many children and was not employed at the time of the memorandum of decision. Payment of the counsel fees order shall be deferred until she has gainful employment, and then payment at a rate consistent with her support obligations. Until such time as a court order has been entered specifying terms for her payment of this obligation, the plaintiff is ordered to provide quarterly written reports to defendant's former attorney by the tenth day of each January, April, July, and October concerning her employment and employment income for the previous quarter, and in addition she is ordered to provide to him a copy of any financial affidavit she files in any court proceeding or submits to any financial or lending institution.
1. FN1. After filing the supplemental order, the court noticed that, in the next to the last paragraph, the order incorrectly orders that counsel fees be awarded to plaintiff. This order corrects that scrivener's error.
2. FN2. Rule 1.5(a) of the Rules of Professional Conduct provides as follows: "A lawyer's fee shall be reasonable. The factors to be considered in determining the reasonableness of a fee include the following: (1) The time and labor required, the novelty and difficulty of the questions involved, and the skill requisite to perform the legal service properly, (2) The likelihood, if made known to the client, that the acceptance of the particular employment will preclude other employment by the lawyer; (3) The fee customarily charged in the locality for similar legal services; (4) The amount involved and the results obtained; (5) The time limitation imposed by the client or by the circumstances; (6) The nature and length of the professional relationship with the client; (7) The experience, reputation, and ability of the lawyer or lawyers performing the services; and (8) Whether the fee is fixed or contingent."
Frazzini, Stephen F., J.

Helicopter hoists injured skier to safety on Snoqualmie Pass | Video
King County Sheriff's Search and Rescue Unit used a helicopter to hoist and rescue an injured backcountry skier trapped on the northwest side of Alpental mountain last Sunday, Feb. 12.
The skier had an injured leg and was in an area that was dangerous and difficult for ground crews to reach, said Deputy Ken O'Neal, who piloted the helicopter.
Local firefighters set up a landing zone at the pass summit, allowing the helicopter to pick up a volunteer search and rescue member, who is also a medical doctor, to assist with the operation.
The team's initial attempt to locate the skier was unsuccessful due to a layer of heavy fog blocking the area. Eventually, they located a break in the fog that allowed them to get close.
The skier was then quickly located with assistance of a ground team that had already reached him and a deputy was dropped down via the hoist. The deputy assessed the skier's injuries and prepared him for hoisting and transport.
The skier was hoisted to the helicopter in a "double up" hoist and the volunteer doctor on board was able to provide immediate treatment. Due to the speed of the rescue, the air crew was able to safely negotiate the brief gap in the foul weather and deliver the skier to additional waiting medical personnel at the landing zone.
You can see a video of the rescue at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6GXp9sdiTE

Doggling the Boon
"if we can boondoggle our way out of this depression, that word is going to be enshrined in the hearts of the American people for years to come."—Franklin D. Roosevelt
I'm pretty sure that boondoggles go back as far as people do. For example, it's not hard to imagine a couple of Egyptians looking out at the Great Pyramid as it entered its 15th year of construction and one saying to the other, "You know, we all love Khufu, but isn't it time someone put a lid on this thing?"
You'd probably hear the same sort of conversation at any number of historic construction sites.
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon—"Gardens I can see, but hanging gardens—it's an outrage! Who does Nebuchadnezzar think he is?"
The Great Wall of China—"They really believe this is going to keep out the Mongol hordes?"
Stonehenge—"Hello? Anyone?"
And so it has gone through the ages (Easter Island idols, the Colossus of Rhodes, the Eiffel Tower, The New Deal), with indignant voices rising in opposition on all sides. Of course, boondogglery remains very much a part of modern life as well. With its dictionary definition—"a wasteful or impractical project or activity often involving graft"—you don't have to look far to find plenty of fresh examples.
In fact, all you have to do is turn to page 17 of September's Connecticut Magazine for the story of a salmon restoration project on the Connecticut River that cost taxpayers (federal and state) and utility ratepayers hundreds of millions of dollars over the last 45 years, before finally being put out of its misery in July. That undertold story may have been Connecticut's greatest boondoggle of the last half-century.
Or you can simply check out the local news to find the word regularly being used (often inaccurately) to describe projects and situations all over Connecticut. It's recently been employed by critics of a proposed trash-to-energy plant in Waterbury, a proposed biofuel plant in Suffield, several wind-power projects, ballot irregularities in Bridgeport, last year's proposed state budget in Hartford, the Jackson Laboratory project in Farmington and, most prominently and vociferously, the $579 million busway ("CTFastrack," the state DOT likes to call it), strongly backed by Gov. Dannel Malloy, that will, if all goes well, one day carry passengers by bus over a newly constructed, dedicated roadbed running between New Britain and downtown Hartford.
"I will continue to speak out against the busway boondoggle," former Gov. John Rowland declared one day on his radio show. "This is the biggest waste of taxpayer money in Connecticut history."
Given Connecticut's 375-year history and Rowland's own well-documented familiarity with questionable projects and graft, that's quite a statement. It also doesn't take into account the fact (well-known to Rowland) that governors, just as they are allowed to sprinkle a small number of unqualified cronies into the bureaucracy, are also entitled to a boondoggle or two during their time in office—even if it merely turns out to be a visionary project that no one understood at the time.
In the last few decades, we've seen Gov. Thomas Meskill's "people mover," an inflation-adjusted $25 million monorail designed to carry travelers between the parking lots and the terminals at Bradley International Airport. The project was ridiculed as "Tommy's Trolley" and was so lambasted by his opponent, Ella Grasso, that after she won, she felt obliged to abandon the just-completed structure. It was eventually demolished, never having been used except for test runs.
Grasso herself was not a notable big spender, although she did enthusiastically oversee the introduction of instant scratch tickets and daily numbers, part of what some would consider an enormous lottery boondoggle that in 40 years has taken more than $7 billion out of state residents' pockets and put it into the general fund—becoming in effect a boondoggle used on occasion to fund other boondoggles.
Gov. Bill O'Neill had a weakness for road projects in eastern Connecticut and also for the long-dormant Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford, pumping millions into a hoped-for cultural renaissance along the Housatonic that has yet to take place.
Gov. Lowell Weicker's love of tennis led to the construction of the Connecticut Tennis Center in New Haven, an inflation-adjusted $25 million investment that has never been used much more than 10 days a year.
As for Rowland himself, choosing one of his boondoggles is like looking into a just-opened Whitman's Sampler and trying to decide on just the right chocolate. I suppose we have to go with the construction of the $57 million Juvenile Correction Center in Middletown, a project so thoroughly corrupt, and then so costly to operate ($774 per night per prisoner for the first three years!), that The New York Times' account of it was headlined: "Blueprint of a Boondoggle."
As for the New Britain-Hartford busway, four governors—Weicker, Rowland, Rell and Malloy—have to share in the credit for that. The idea first came to light in 1994, when Weicker was in office. It was subject to a major study in 1999 and received its first federal approval in 2000, both under Rowland's watch. Final design approval came in 2006, when Rell was overseeing things. And now construction has begun under Malloy. Maybe they can all take the first bus ride together.
Whether the busway turns out to be brilliant or merely a boondoggle forever identified with Malloy remains to be seen. He has a ways to go still, and, as we speak, there are already a few other contenders vying for infamy. One that I've been keeping my eye on is the excessive cost of new-school construction in the state. Right now, there's an $80 million high school going up in Bridgeport and a $70 million vo-tech school beginning construction in Waterbury. We are building temples, mostly to satisfy the whims of administrators and consultants, while still not effectively addressing the dysfunction that occurs inside them.
Boondoggle fans are also noting that Malloy has demonstrated an alarming penchant for giving millions of dollars in loans, grants and tax breaks as "incentives to grow jobs in Connecticut" to companies, such as ESPN and Deloitte, that appear to have had no intention of leaving.
So any account of Connecticut boondoggles must remain a work in progress. I haven't even mentioned our state legislature, for example. What makes me think there could be an interesting story there, too?

The aim of this programme is to develop novel stem cell based therapeutics for osteoarthritis and cartilage repair
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a complex condition with broad pathology, featuring damage and loss of articular cartilage as a consistent feature. Over 100 million people worldwide suffer from painful osteoarthritis, one of the most common causes of disability. While the onset of OA may be a slow and progressive process being clinically "silent" for many years, trauma such as meniscal or ligament damage are predisposing factors.
Current treatments for osteoarthritis largely focus on pain management and the eventual replacement of the affected knee or hip joint. Our goal at REMEDI is to develop novel cell-based therapies using adult bone marrow stem cells to promote the regrowth of healthy cartilage and repair damaged joints. Stem cells are known to possess properties which allow them to be programmed to create healthy new tissue to repair damage caused by injury or disease. These therapies will have the potential to alleviate or delay the need for joint replacement and lower the need for long-term pain management. We have shown that delivery of mesenchymal stem cells slows down the development of OA, these cells remain at the forefront of current research in cellular therapy for a broad spectrum of diseases including osteoarthritis. This is the focus of the CARA (Cellular Arthoplasty Regeneration in Arthritis) project which is being run jointly with the international company, Smith & Nephew.
The REMEDI Orthobiologics Programme
In the REMEDI Orthobiologics Group, Udo Greiser, Cynthia Coleman, Eric Farrell and Prof. Abhay Pandit are working with Prof. Frank Barry and Dr. Mary Murphy to investigate the mechanisms whereby stem cells can prevent development of OA and how these cells can be used to repair damaged, osteoarthritic cartilage or to promot integration of metal implants currently used for joint replacement. The Group works closly interaction with clinical collaborators from the Orthopaedic unit of Galway University Hospital in ensuring that the aims of the research are achieved. Also critical to the successful implemetation of the project is a close working relationship with our industry partners. These include Galway-based companies such as Creganna-Tactx Medical and Proxy Biomedical, EnBio based in Cork and Ovagen, based in Ballina, Co. Mayo.
GAMBA (Gene Activated Matrices for Bone and Cartilage Regeneration in Arthritis) is a European Union-funded research project focused on developing new methods for the treatment of osteoarthritis. In collaboration with nine partner institutions from Germany, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland, researchers in REMEDI aim to promote the self-healing capacity of damaged cartilage and bone using the coordinated cooperation/interaction of gene vectors, mesenchymal stem cells, polymers and magnetic nanoparticles.

I am not familiar with Lucian Armasu. He seems to be a Romanian blogger and ARM advocate. I cannot find anything he has authored other than comments on articles. Lucian speaks through ARM colored glasses and has no special source of information.
I think that people have underestimated the power optimization that Intel has incorporated into their chips and especially Haswell. Intel may be guilty of missing the dramatic shift in low power that ARM enabled, but they are not guilty of ignoring it. My source indicates that Paul ordered a Haswell redesign to chop power consumption. We will find out more in 5 weeks at CES2013.
I doubt that there will be a $20 ARM server chip. This has the same problem that the BIG.little has. It takes too much silicon.
I think that many will skip the microserver hardware and implement virtual machine instances on a Xeon server. You can run any OS on a VM which is more flexible and cheaper per user.
There is not any credible argument that indicates that either ARM or Intel will disappear.

A box truck went off the Massachusetts Turnpike and into a small body of water early Thursday morning, Massachusetts state police said.
There were no immediate reports on the condition of the driver in the crash on the westbound side of the turnpike in Warren.
Initial reports said the driver was trapped in the truck in waist-deep water and emergency responders were working to get him out.
NewsCenter 5 and WCVB.com will have more details on this developing story.
