NEW YORK -- Step aside, "Young Frankenstein." Kneel, ye knights of "Monty Python's Spamalot." Bow low, other Rialto mirth-makers: Right now the funniest man on Broadway is Norbert Leo Butz, a splendid actor and a total riot in "Is He Dead?"
Playing an 1840s artist who fakes his death and goes into petticoats as his own sister, Butz cavorts with wonderful agility through a sardonic escapade conceived by America's greatest humorist, Mark Twain.
Written by Twain in 1898 but never produced until now in a revised version from witty David Ives, "Is He Dead?" opened yesterday at the Lyceum Theatre, a venerable playhouse that might have housed the original.
Why Twain's comedy didn't see the limelight of Broadway way back when is more complicated than his satirical story, so let's skip the literary footnotes and get on with the show set in mid-19th-century Paris.
Butz portrays Frenchman Jean-Francois Millet, a brilliant but starving painter ignored by the public. Millet's debt to the heartless Andre (Byron Jennings) hampers his romance with Marie (Jenn Gambatese) whose family, headed by her Papa Leroux (John McMartin), also heavily owes the scoundrel.
Then Millet's American chum Chicago (an ever-lively Michael McGrath) hatches a plan: Millet pretends to perish of a nasty malady, thus driving up the price of his paintings as a fatally neglected genius. As the press trumpets the tragedy, Millet sticks around to supervise the scam as the "Widow Tillou," his tootsie twin sister.
The scheme works, millions roll in -- and the Widow Tallou is hotly pursued by Andre and Papa Leroux, both crazy for the bewitching and now-rich lady. Chicago's jealous sweetheart (Bridget Regan) and a massive state funeral for the painter led by the King of France also threaten to penetrate Millet's disguise.
Intended by Twain to comment upon a superficial society that cares nothing about art and prizes celebrity above all, the play proves relatively slight. Unearthed among Twain's papers in 2002, the cumbersome original draft has been extensively yet faithfully adapted for contemporary viewers by Ives (the clever author of "All in the Timing"). No restored masterpiece, the comedy packs lots of old-fashioned funny business, thanks especially to Butz's inspired clowning.
A manful fellow with blunt good looks, Butz's Millet is comically awkward as he adapts to the Widow's flounced gowns and sausage curls. His character growing comfortable in corsets, Butz sails around vivaciously, mixing flirtatiousness with a devil-may-care masculinity. Designer Martin Pakledinaz's busty Victorian costumes amplify Butz's feminine charade even as the actor's farcical charms and expressive, spirited physicality set off eruptions of laughter.
Staged at a snappy pace by Michael Blakemore with a nod towards period stage manners, an 11-member troupe romps through a show that begins slowly and increasingly gathers momentum. Along with McMartin's wheedling old beau and Jennings' mustache-twirling villain, other droll standouts are darlings Patricia Conolly and Marylouise Burke as Millet's maidenly landladies and David Pittu in four sharply cut cameo roles.
Twain's admirers won't discover a memorable comedy here, but everybody who laughs their way through "Is He Dead?" is sure to remember Butz's hilarious performance.

GRAND RAPIDS, MI – Game 3 of the Calder Cup Finals moves to Grand Rapids where the Griffins will host the Syracuse Crunch amid excitement of a 2-0 lead, three home games and the prospect of the franchise's first championship.
Game time is 7 tonight at Van Andel Arena.
Grand Rapids could host as many as three games – tonight, Friday and Sunday – in the best-of-seven series. If they win less than two, they will return to Syracuse for the final two games, as necessary.
So Griffins' fans have a lot to be excited about. Or they can be worried.
You pick a side.
A 2-0 lead headed home. Not only a 2-0 series lead, but accomplished in Syracuse before two hostile crowds in an old and loud arena against a Crunch team that had pounded their opposition (48-23 goal differential) in the two previous series, winning 11 of 12. Now, the Griffins have three home games, needing two wins, to hoist the Calder Cup Trophy at home.
Superior play. The Griffins have maneuvered inside the Syracuse zone, something no one has done this season, and, conversely, kept top Crunch players – like league MVP Tyler Johnson and playoffs scoring leader Ondrej Palat – under wraps. Johnson had one shot last game, three in the first and has two power-play assists to show so far. A little frustrated. Um, yeah.
Spread the wealth. The Griffins have nine goals from nine players in the series, and all four lines have been active. Landon Ferraro has a goal and two assists in and Riley Sheahan is off to a good start with a goal and assists in the first two games. Syracuse changed up and went with seven defensemen in Game 2, and the result was six Griffins' goals.
Same deal – a 2-0 lead headed home. The Griffins came back from Syracuse to find themselves media darlings. Overconfidence? Coach Jeff Blashill won't hear of it. It's a testament to being in the finals, but sometimes it's easier to focus on the road than at home. And what if the Griffins lose games 3 and 4? Whoa. That Saturday Game 5, with the Griffins knowing they have to go back to Syracuse, would be a whole different atmosphere. The Crunch's road record in the playoffs? 5-0.
Penalties and the PK. Back and forth we go with the PK. The Griffins, 29th in the league during the regular season on the penalty kill, had turned it around against high-scoring Oklahoma City, and were at 86.5 percent going into the finals, up nearly five percent. Now trouble is brewing again. Syracuse had two power-play goals in Game 2, thanks in part to eight opportunities. They had five chances in Game 1. The Griffins have to stay out of the box against such a prolific scoring team.
Syracuse stars. Tyler Johnson is the league MVP for crying out loud. He has just two assists. Ondrej Palat is the scoring leader in the playoffs. He has one assist despite shooting like mad (nine in two games). Playoff history says they are due. And then there's the unknown status of defenseman Radko Gudas. The bruiser missed the two first games with an undisclosed leg injury. If he plays, his presence would certainly challenge the Griffins' ability to skate free in the offensive zone.

It could be a make or break year for casino developers competing in Western Massachusetts.
Before 2013 is over, voters are expected to get their say on specific casino projects in Palmer, Springfield and West Springfield, ensuring intense debates in communities over the benefits and problems of expanded gambling.
Stephen P. Crosby, chairman of the Massachusetts Gaming Commission, said 2013 will be "the seminal year" for gaming in Massachusetts.
"It's going to be a busy year .. filled with aggressive competition," Crosby said.
Eleven companies across the state met a Jan. 15 deadline to submit preliminary applications for licenses to the commission, along with $400,000 fees.
The bidders in Western Massachusetts include four giants in the industry: MGM Resorts International and Penn National Gaming, which are both planning casinos in downtown Springfield, the Mohegan Sun, which is planning a casino in Palmer and Hard Rock International, which has staked out ground for a casino at the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield.
Casinos could mean a major lift for the economy, tourism and government revenues. Each casino would create about 1,500 to 2,500 permanent jobs and more than 2,000 construction jobs.
Executives of the four companies said the coming year could determine the fate of their proposals.
Mitchell G. Etess, chief executive officer of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority in Connecticut, which owns the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Conn., said he is optimistic about the year ahead.
The company is planning a $600 million casino, spa and hotel on about 152 acres near Exit 8 of the Massachusetts Turnpike in Palmer.
"We really love our chances in Palmer," Etess said in an interview. "We know we have a tremendous amount of support in the community."
Just last month, the Mohegan Sun ended a long search for a financial partner when it announced that Brigade Capital Management of New York would invest in the Palmer project. Last year, the Mohegan casino company also refinanced more than $1 billion in debt.
Etess said the planned Palmer resort would be in the ballpark of $800 million when including adjacent land that would be used for retail, for example, and would be developed by a separate company.
The Mohegan Sun has a head start on its competitors. The company has been planning the Palmer casino for more than five years, including opening a storefront office in downtown Palmer more than three years ago. The company is currently negotiating an agreement with Palmer town officials.
The Palmer proposal is part of the Mohegan Sun's effort to find new business amid growing competition in the Northeast, including race track casinos in New York.
The Mohegan Sun boasted $48 million in operating income for the final quarter of calendar 2012, but gaming revenues were down about 7 percent compared with the same quarter in 2011, partly because of newer rivals in New York.
In West Springfield, Hard Rock International is planning an estimated $700 million to $800 million casino, spa and hotel on 38 acres of the grounds of the Eastern States Exposition, the organization that holds the annual 17-day "Big E" fair.
James F. Allen, chairman of Hard Rock International, said "it's an amazing match" between Hard Rock and the fair organization.
Allen said the project would be the merger of two noted brands in the entertainment industry.
"We are incredibly excited," Allen said. "The marriage was made in heaven."
Allen said the West Springfield proposal includes some attributes that will "clearly separate" the proposal from its three competitors in Western Massachusetts, including its relationship with the fair.
The gaming floor alone would be at least 150,000 square feet and would have about 2,500 slot machines and 100 tables.
The company may create up to 7,000 parking spaces, including some 2,500 to 3,000 inside a new structure, he said.
"Over the last four years, we've looked at countless locations in the state," Allen said. "This by far is the superior location."
Allen said Hard Rock considered downtown Springfield, but believes that the minimum 38-acre site in West Springfield would provide the space needed to create a destination resort.
Hard Rock weighed some 15 to 20 sites in Massachusetts, all with some positives and negatives, he said.
Hard Rock and Mohegan are both saying they have the land that is needed for a true resort.
Both say their casinos could be gambling destinations for a regional market that includes Albany, N.Y., Hartford, Worcester and New Hampshire.
Springfield, one of the poorer communities in the state, is the only municipality in Massachusetts with two casino proposals.
Michael Mathis, vice president of global development for MGM, said the company will continue its regular meetings with the public and key stakeholders in the city this year.
Mathis said MGM is proposing a casino that could spark "economic re-generation" in Springfield.
Las Vegas-based MGM is proposing an about $800 million casino resort on 10 to 15 acres in the South End, generally bounded by Main Street and East Columbus Avenue and State and Union streets.
"It looks to incorporate, complement and support existing businesses in the region and in the city," Mathis said.
Mathis said a critical part of MGM's plan is a pedestrian bridge that could go across State and Main streets and connect to the MassMutual Center, which is owned by the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority and which, about eight years ago, received $71 million in state-funded work including a new adjacent convention center.
"It's a regional asset," Mathis said of the MassMutual Center. "I think we can do a lot to support that facility."
Mathis said the MGM casino would make the downtown vibrant, improve public safety and boost public perception of a part of the city that is often empty on nights and weekends.
He said MGM looked at whether crime and the city's homeless population would affect business at a casino, but concluded that a resort would be "a big benefit" to the downtown.
In the North End of Springfield, Penn National is planning an $807 million casino complex on 13.4 acres. As part of the project, Penn National has an option to purchase The Republican's 1860 Main St. building and property and vacant land on the Connecticut River.
Penn National, based in Wyomissing, Pa., also has a "50-50" partnership with Peter A. Picknelly, chairman and CEO of Peter Pan Bus Lines. His brother, Paul C. Picknelly, president of Monarch Enterprises in Springfield, is among local partners in the MGM plan.
Timothy J. Wilmott, president and chief operating officer of Penn National, said he wanted to be careful to avoid over promotion of the economic impacts of a casino in Springfield but he said there is no question it would have a positive effect on the economy.
Wilmott said a casino in Springfield would help but it would not be a panacea.
Wilmott also said he was not worried about crime in the downtown or the homeless population. He said the environment should dramatically improve, partly because of increased security around a casino and the urban revitalization spurred by the project.
Penn National's plan includes an overhaul of the historic Paramount Theater and relocating the Peter Pan bus terminal to Union Station.
The Republican's building would be demolished, along with the existing Peter Pan terminal. Using the proceeds from the sale, the newspaper would relocate its newsroom and office personnel to a new downtown location, thus keeping jobs in Springfield. A new printing plant would be built in an industrial park off Interstate 291 in Springfield.
During Penn National's official unveiling on Dec. 20 at the Paramount, George Arwady, publisher and CEO of The Republican, told a crowd that The Republican found itself in the way of an $807 million project in the downtown.
"That was a problem," Arwady said. "We needed to get out of the way."
Wilmott said Penn National looked at sites such as the fairgrounds in West Springfield. He said the company concluded that a downtown casino in Springfield would have more of an "overall ripple effect" on the economy and would stand a better chance of winning the competitive bid process.
Wilmott also touted Penn National's financial strength, saying it has one of the more conservative balance sheets in the industry.
The company's track record includes the opening of three casinos last year "on time and on budget," he said. Penn National opened casinos last year in Toledo and Columbus in Ohio and one in Kansas.
In order to move ahead in the licensing process, Penn National and other casino developers need to negotiate agreements with communities where they want to locate. Those agreements would include ways to mitigate the effects of casinos, including possibly sharing a percentage of gaming revenues.
Casino companies also need the approval of voters in communities where they want to locate casinos, but the timing of those referendums largely depends on the gaming commission.
Before ballot questions are held, the five-member gaming commission must complete the first phase of the licensing process, including possibly weeding out some companies that were among the 11 preliminary applicants. That preliminary phase includes investigations of a company's finances, ethics and top officers and directors.
If a company passes the commission's investigation, and a company then finalizes an agreement with a potential "host" community, a referendum can be held. The ballot question can take place no fewer than 60 days after finalizing an agreement.
Crosby, the chairman of the commission, said it is unclear when the commission's background investigations will be complete. It could be in the late spring or in the fall, depending on whether company officials appeal findings by the commission, he said.
Springfield Mayor Domenic J. Sarno is expected to announce on Feb. 11 whether he will negotiate mitigation agreements, including fees and taxes, with MGM Resorts and Penn National Gaming, or only one of the companies. Sarno will decide if one or both companies go to the ballot.
Late this year, developers are expected to submit bids to the commission for specific sites for casinos, depending on voter approval.
The commission is aiming to award the first casino resort license in February of next year. It is planning to issue a license for a slots-only parlor possibly by October.
The state's casino law sets aside one commercial casino license for Western Massachusetts, one commercial license for Greater Boston and a slots-only license for anywhere in the state. The law permits a Mashpee Wampanoag casino in the southeast part of the state, pending federal approval of a revised compact currently being negotiated by the state and the tribe.
"We will be awarding at a minimum the slots license and we'll be right down to the short strokes on the casino licenses," Crosby said, summing up the commission's outlook for the year.
The process in Massachusetts comes as the gaming industry is continuing a slow comeback following the financial crisis of 2009.
Overall, according to preliminary numbers, national gaming revenues were up about 5 percent for the first three quarters of last year, following an uptick in 2011, according to Holly Wetzel, spokeswoman for the American Gaming Association in Washington.
Massachusetts is the most recent state to legalize casinos. Twenty three states are home to commercial casinos. A total of 38 states have casinos when including Indian casinos, such as the two in Connecticut.

Public Health clinic at Kirkland and Bothell boundary facing closure
The Public Health clinic located near the Kirkland and Bothell boundary faces closure as Public Health-Seattle & King County faces a $15 million shortfall per year for the next two years.
"We've run out of rabbits we can pull from our hat," said David Fleming, director and health officer for Public Health. "To operate with a balanced budget, we may be compelled to reduce staffing and services."
The agency's biggest budget challenge is with its Public Health centers, where expenses have outpaced revenue. This has created an approximately $10 million annual gap in both 2015 and 2016, according to the agency's website.
As a result, much of the agency's cuts will occur at the centers. Public Health proposes to close four of its 10 public health clinics: Federal Way, Auburn, Northshore in Bothell and Greenbridge in White Center.
The Bothell clinic at 10808 NE 145th St. serves more than 4,200 clients per year and employs 17 total staff, said Keith Seinfeld, Public Health public information officer.
"We sent out our budget proposals this month and should have a final answer from King County Council in November," Seinfeld said.
Reductions would impact a range of core public services – such as reducing the capacity for disease investigations, and curtailing Public Health work on tobacco and obesity prevention.
"This is painful and, like you, I'm concerned about our clients," wrote Fleming in a message to staff. "We'll work with our communities to try to find ways to mitigate some of these cuts, but at the end of the day, this is likely to result in a loss of services for some of our clients."
Altogether, the proposed reductions could potentially lead to more than 200 layoffs.
EMS and restaurant inspections will not be impacted. Seinfeld said the department's top priority is preserving the core, irreplaceable functions that only Public Health is able to provide.
Most Public Health funds come from grants, levies or fees that are dedicated for specific purposes, and cannot be shifted to other services. For example, emergency medical services (EMS) are funded by levy dollars that can only be used for EMS. Restaurant inspections are paid for by fees.
The proposed cuts would not impact all areas of Public Health. Most will occur in three areas that rely on more general funding: Public Health Centers, Prevention Services and services provided through the Director's Office/Administration.
The Bothell clinic offers family planning services and reproductive health care that includes HIV and STD screening and pregnancy tests; maternity support services and maternity screening; and a teen clinic that provides education and services for pregnancy prevention and for pregnant, parenting and at-risk teens.
Seinfeld noted maternity support services account for most of the visits at the Bothell clinic, as well as other Public Health clinics.
"The good news for Bothell area clients is that we already have created a partnership in that location," Seinfeld said. "We have worked with HealthPoint at their new Bothell facility and currently offer both MSS and WIC at that location."
Public Health is looking into the idea of creating a Satellite Team based out of Eastgate Public Health Center. It would provide rotating staff at Northshore's current satellite clinics at HealthPoint Bothell and in Carnation, and potentially add other satellite clinics through additional partnerships. This would result in an elimination of services for roughly 40 percent of the WIC/MSS clients served by Northshore PHC, according to Seinfeld.

I downloaded the zip from the Rockstar website, and extracted the gta2.exe installer file. When I double click to run it, nothing happens.
I've heard of a few problems with XP and about patches but surely you couldnt install a patch until the game was installed prior. Anyone else know or could suggest anything?

Hmm, it worked fine for me, is it the install exe or the game exe that isn't working?
Posted 03 April 2007 - 01:30 PM
The install exe. It will start to run but then the process stops. Nothing about the install process actually comes up.

They say its actually very dangerous bc its sort of a "big brother" thing. Google is achiving things permantantly, even if you delete them. After 180 days, under fed law, all emails can be accessed by only a subpoena... Google has been actively recruiting hires with gov security clearances. The conspriracy theorists makes it sound like google is teaming up with in'l govs to spy on electronic transmissions... and help figt terrorism or other crimes.
Also, google is doing specfic marketing-- who is to say they won't sell your info later? Ie: imagine if an insurance co asks google for your records, and google hands them over (for a fee). If the insurance co finds you engage in risky behavior (snoker for example) they could deny you insurance... this is a total violation of privacy.
In fact, 31 separtae privacy agencies have requested google NOT go forward with gmail until they legally formally define the parameters over which they will look at your email.
Google says its not an invasion of provacy bc only the "computers" read your email... but privacy advocates say that is not the issue. The issue is who might get this information from google at a later date.
I don't know how I feel about any of that-- conspiracy theory or valid priavcy concerns? But, I am very curious to see how the gmail system works.

Smhop, Google isn't storing usage data and such, unlike Yahoo and MSN. The targeted advertisting that is displayed is dynamically generated. You're right, that no human reads the mail is not the point. The point is that Gmail is not creating a profile of its users.
Ah. I love Google, with their 'Do No Evil' motto

The University of Chicago Center for Simulation and Safety in Healthcare creates, evaluates and disseminates innovative approaches to improving the resilience of health care systems to failures. The key themes pursued at the Center are simulation-based methods, advanced safety information systems, health policy, ethics and legal issues, and systems research.
The University of Chicago Center for Simulation and Safety in Healthcare is one of 17 research and evaluation Developing Centers established nationwide in 2001 by the U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Following the 1999 release of the Institute of Medicine's landmark report To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System, the AHRQ rolled out a 5-year, $250-million research agenda to study ways of reducing the incidence of medical errors and accidents. As part of the Congressionally-mandated AHRQ research plan, the Centers are intended to become the infrastructure for sustained research and development in patient safety.
The University of Chicago Simulation Center is a central feature of the UC Center for Simulation and Safety in Healthcare. Based in a newly renovated, dedicated facility on campus in Chicago's famous Hyde Park neighborhood, the center consists of administrative offices, a large multimedia immersive simulation room, and an adjacent conference and observation room. The Access Grid advanced digital multimedia system supports debriefing, control, research and other facility needs in addition to Internet-2 based telecollaboration and learning.
Simulation-based research and training in health care has been evolving and expanding rapidly since the early 1990s. Fueled in part by their success in other high-risk, safety-critical industries such as aviation, petrochemical processing, and nuclear power, simulation today constitutes an integral component of many contemporary safety programs. Simulation-based approaches uncouple training risks from actual operations, facilitate behavior enhancement through video feedback, and help personnel in high-reliability organizations maintain the skills necessary to effectively deal with risk and complexity. We also believe that immersive and other forms of simulation can build safety culture and impact other key organizational-level factors that strengthen resilience to failure and ensure desired outcomes.
The UC Simulation Center was created with funding from the U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the Advanced Biomedical Tele-Collaboration Testbed, and support from the University of Chicago Hospitals and the Biological Sciences Division, and the Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care. The UC Simulation Center currently utilizes advanced high-fidelity Human Patient Simulators and the Access Grid tele-collaboration technology to study simulated medical events and scenarios in an immersive environment. The facility design supports interdisciplinary, multi-patient simulations intended to facilitate investigation of and training for systems-level issues.

MIAMI -- A day after forming, Tropical Storm Don did not change appreciably in the early hours this mornings, is moving across the Gulf of Mexico toward southeastern Texas, and is expected to make landfall Friday, according to the National Hurricane Center.
A tropical storm watch is in effect from the mouth of the Rio Grande northward to west of San Luis Pass.
The National Hurricane Center in Miami says Don's maximum sustained winds Thursday are near 40 mph with some strengthening possible.
The storm is centered about 545 miles east-southeast of Corpus Christi, Texas, and is moving west-northwest near 10 mph.
In its update on the storm, issued at 4 a.m., hurricane center meteorologists said Don was maintaining a small area of convection near its center and "there is not much organization in the infrared cloud pattern."
Latest data measurements, they said, confirmed that "Don is a rather small tropical cyclone." Forecasters said it is tricky to try to predict the storm's intensity, with various models showing some strengthening, others not.
"Another factor to consider is that the size of Don makes it susceptible to rapid changes in strength, both up and down, that are nearly impossible to forecast," the meteorologists wrote.Forecasters also said overnight microwave images suggest the storm's small center has been moving erratically, though they still see it being steered away from the northern Gulf Coast.

Hinds, Gators set 3 school records to open NCAA championships
Published: Thursday, March 20, 2014 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 20, 2014 at 11:52 p.m.
Minneapolis, Minn. — The Florida women's swimming and diving team started off the NCAA championships with school records in the 200-freestyle relay, 400-medley relay and 50 freestyle on Thursday's opening night of the three-day event. Sophomore Natalie Hinds had her hand in both record relays and also set the school record in the sports' shortest event.
The Gators responded at night by winning a pair of consolation finals after missing some swims in the morning and are in eighth place with 57 points after Day 1. Florida will look to improve in the team standings with some of its stronger events slated for the second day of competition but will need to secure championship final swims with a strong morning session Friday.
"A little bit mixed emotions," UF coach Gregg Troy said. "We got started slow, didn't swim that well on the first relay and our 500 freestyles weren't very good. And then we got rolling. You've got to give the girls credit. They came back and raced tough."
The 400-medley relay team of Sinead Russell, Hilda Luthersdottir, Ellese Zalewski and Hinds broke the program mark in prelimaries with a swim of 3:29.67. Russell led off and recorded a 100 backstroke split of 51.99 and was followed by Luthersdottir, Zalewski and Hinds. Hinds posted an anchor of 47.20.
In the championship final of the 400-medley relay, the same group from prelims placed fourth overall with a time of 3:30.27.
Zalewski, Hinds, Russell and Ashlee Linn raced to the win in the consolation final of the 200-free relay in a UF record time of 1:27.54. Hinds delivered a monster 21.07 split on the third leg to give the Gators open water, and Linn cruised to the wall with a 22.09 anchor.
"I'm really pleased with the school records," Troy said. "Both relays were outstanding. Tremendous splits from Natalie Hinds. She had the fastest split on 200 freestyle relay, one of the fastest swims ever. Great day for her. She had the second fastest time in the 50 free but wasn't quite as sharp this morning and missed the final. She's going to get better in those things."
Zalewski, Hinds, Russell and Lindsey McKnight were 10th after prelims in the 200-free relay after posting a time of 1:28.41. The mark ranks as UF's fifth fastest all-time swim.
Hinds ended her 50 freestyle run in ninth place for the second consecutive year after touching in a school record mark of 21.66, which bodes well for the sophomore who is one of the top seeds heading in the 100 freestyle on Saturday. The Midland, Texas native made the 'B' final after a prelim mark of 22.15. Hinds' swim of 21.66 was the second fastest swim recorded in the event.
Senior and two-time NCAA champion Elizabeth Beisel will swim in her first event of the meet tomorrow. Beisel is the reigning national champion in the 400 individual medley and is the top seed heading into the event.

Article XIII Section 1(a) of the California Constitution generally requires reappraisal of property at market value whenever a change in ownership occurs or new construction is completed (Supplemental Assessment Process).
If you are a new property owner who purchased your property after January 1st, and you believe that your assessed value will be lowered in the Supplemental Assessment process, please read the following:
Secured property tax bills for each fiscal year are issued in September with the lien date (January 1st) owner's value as provided by law.
A "Negative" Supplemental Assessment may be warranted if your assessed value is determined by the Assessor's Office to be lower than the assessed value stated on this current bill.
When the Assessor's Office has mailed you a "Notice of Supplemental Assessment", you have 30 days from the date of the notice to request an informal review of the New Base Value set by the Assessor. Contact the Real Property Division at (408) 299-5300 and ask to speak to the appraiser responsible for the assessor's parcel number as shown on page 1 of the notice. If you are not satisfied with the results of the review you may apply to the Assessment Appeals Board for relief. In general, an Application for Changed Assessment must be filed with the Clerk of the Assessment Appeals Board within 60 days of the date of the notice.
After approximately 60 days have expired, the information is transmitted to the Tax Collector's Office for processing.
Negative Supplemental Payment Instructions
If you have received a "Notice of Supplemental Assessment" from the Assessor, and your New Base Value is stated to be less than the value on the Secured Annual Bill, you can expect a refund. The refund is intended to offset the payment of any outstanding taxes on this property for which you are responsible. If taxes are still owed on your parcel, you should deposit the refund check and write one check for the entire payment.
Please note the following important reminders:

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- The carnival was in town Monday.
The teen Art Gallery Carnival, that is.
Dozens of adults and children who stopped by the New Dorp branch of the New York Public Library Monday were able to enjoy a display of original artwork from neighborhood teens and staff, while the younger readers got to play fun carnival games for prizes, take silly photos in the photo booth, and walk out with free candy, in addition to books they signed out.
The program was the culmination of the library's Summer Reading Program, as well as the year-long Teen Club program.
"We call it our 'end of summer' reading bash," explained Jennifer Gaeta, the branch's young adult librarian.
A total of 13 teen volunteers planned and supervised the day's activities. The teens are members of the library's Teen Club and Teen Advisory Board, that meets once a week after school throughout the school year, as well as over the summer.
This summer, in addition to reading and creative writing, the teens were able to complete various art works, including canvas paintings, sculpture, oragami and other crafts, which were on display in the library Monday. The young artists were also on hand to explain their work to anyone who dropped by.
Massimo Moscato, 18, of New Dorp, a June graduate of New Dorp High School, had several literary-themed art pieces on display, including one of his favorites, an acrylic on canvas painting he based on the Edgar Allan Poe short story "Mask of the Red Death." Moscato said he's been coming to the library's after-school Teen Club since he was a freshman. He is also a member of the Teen Advisory Board.
"It's a great opportunity to find out about all the library has to offer to the community, and to make your voice heard," he said. Members of the Teen Advisory Board offer suggestions on how to make the library more user-friendly to teens and young adults, he said.
New York Public Library spokesman Jonathan Pace said the New Dorp branch is known throughout the library system for its teen and young adult programs.
"They are known for their young adult and teen programs; they always have something going on," he said.
Monday's carnival was all about "our young people giving back to the community," explained Ms. Gaeta, the young adult librarian. "It was all about the older kids putting a smile on the face of the younger ones."

Thanks so much, everyone, for all the responses and words of advice.
Here's my story:
Twelve years ago, at 28, I came down with a serious, debilitating, and undiagnosable autoimmune disease which at first was believed to be MS but then was proven not to be. I had to beat it myself because, since undiagnosable, it was 'untreatable' with regular western meds, a real blessing in disguise. I was already naturally a size 4 (I am small-boned) but then only 5'3". I was very sick, almost in a wheel chair, so took drastic measures: moved to the country, cut out absolutely all sugar and carbs for two years (Body Ecology Diet but with more fat), and did some healthy (not homeopathic) natural remedies. I dropped to a size 0, probably too thin for me, and was really too weak to exercise much til the end of that two year period, but had healed about 95%.
Then I got married and pregnant within about 9 months. During that pregnancy I had to eat almost constantly to avoid dry heaving and gained 70lbs.
I have never been able to get all that weight off since then EXCEPT when I was nursing my second child, who was very sensitive so I was off dairy, sugar, and almost all carbs. The weight flew off, although I felt like I was going to faint most of the time. Once I weaned him, bang. 30 lbs right back on.
I had more autoimmune symptoms come back (not sleeping for almost 8 years with my two kids did not help!), but finally had some important surgery and my symptoms got better.
THEN, finally, two weeks ago!, I had surgery on the deviated septum I've had since I don't know when. For months before this I could not exercise without getting dizzy and having to stop. For the last four nights I have slept better than I have in...decades? I think I have been oxygen-deprived and now I am literally breathing easier.
My youngest is also finally starting to sleep through the night so -- joy! Things are looking brighter.
So what didn't work for me before about Primal living? Sleep. I was so horribly over exhausted from bad sleep that I'd have long stretches where I'd turn to sugar to just get me through. Then I'd get discouraged. Then it would take longer to get back on the Primal bus. I've also got a husband who's gone back to school, done very well, but we've had financial stresses to go along with that. I'm sure these are probably minor league worries compared to many! I don't want to complain. But no, I have not made it the full 30 days straight yet. Almost, but then the sleep thing got in the way.
So now that sleep is happening, maybe it's time to try Primal once again. I just thought doing a shorter round of the HCG thing would give me a nice boost; and btw, it's supposed to make you lose the unnecessary fat and not muscle, so they say. I have an old friend coming to visit next month with his family and I tell you I cannot face seeing him when I look like this (Leida's far left picture but with more belly -- I'm telling you, I'm small-boned) and I used to be like her picture on the far right for most of my life. I am 5'6" now -- I've grown 3" in the last twelve years, nothing odd happening hormonally, been thoroughly tested -- so it's nice that I've got more 'length', but with so much more 'girth', it doesn't really make much difference.
Has anybody heard about trying the HA2CG drops with a low calorie diet with the fat? More like, Primal lite? I know I sound desperate here, and I know it sounds vain. I'm just discouraged. Thanks all for your thoughts.

Wow, you're the first person in support of it! You don't think the no fat thing is flat out bad? Thanks for your post.
I believe every cell in the body needs fat.
Eating primal is not a diet, it is a way of life.
Don't forget to play!
Yep, cholesterol is so important for cell structure. You can try it but as I and others have mentioned, there's no need. You look healthy. I'd work more on muscle definition than on losing weight. You can give this diet a try but I guarantee you that eating no fat will make you feel like crap, and all the obsessing over fat content will make you overanalyze your food like you wouldn't believe. It's not a fun way to live.
F 28/5'4/100 lbs
"I'm not a psychopath, I'm a high-functioning sociopath; do your research."
Making your body suffer from a lack of nutrition just to lose weight sounds terribly dangerous to me. Personally, I don't care how convincing the doctor is. I know the truth of it: your body needs fuel, even during weight loss. That doesn't sound like it provides much/any.
So the reason why Primal didn't work for you is sleep problems? There are plenty of people here who could probably help out with that. Maybe it is something you are eating, or not eating, or a ratio that needs to change. It's also possible you've got something else going on, like a nutritional or hormonal imbalance, but sometimes symptoms and a food chart (once you've been Primal for at least a couple of weeks) can help to figure out the discrepancies.
Depression Lies
Well if I understand the diet correctly, basically what happens is people use the hormone and eat no fat (there's some technical science stuff behind it which I can't remember), which then forces the body to use it's own fat while still preserving muscle mass, which is where the eating no fat and only 500 calories comes in. I guess in theory the diet could work, but I would strongly caution against putting a synthetic hormone into your body just for the sake of trying to lose weight. It's not natural or healthy, and you have no idea what the long term effect could be of doing something like this to your body. That and I actually did some reading about it and have heard a lot of bad things about it.
I really think you need to give a hard buy into Primal again for three months or so, focus on getting good sleep and enough fat, but also make sure that you are not overeating in calories. Also, lifting heavy things and doing sprints WORKS WONDERS. I have finally started losing inches again after months and months of doing chronic cardio, having a thyroid issue, and gaining 20 lbs. I'm taking a natural supplement to support my thryoid, and I stopped the chronic cardio and really have buckled down on my eating. I started lifting heavy three times a week, and boom, I'm losing inches now. Believe me, I know where you are coming from. I know how discouraging it is to feel like you have tried everything and nothing is working. I was stuck there for months. On top of the fact that my docs wouldn't really help me because my thyroid wasn't technically "out of range" by the lab standard, but I knew my numbers were not right FOR ME. I kept pushing my doc and he finally directed me toward a supplement to help.
I think your doc should give you a thorough physical with blood work just to make sure everything is working properly. And I think you should really buy into the principles in the Primal Blue Print (all of them) before you decide that the diet is not going to work for you. A lot of people only do the eating aspect of the diet (as I did in the beginning) and don't have success with it and throw in the towel. Mark knows what he's talking about. Of course I'm no doctor, just speaking from my personal experiences with it over the last seven months.
"Jump! Jump! Jump!" as in - it's your suicide.
This is a primal/paleo forum, we support natural and whole foods.
Although there are no stupid questions, it is foolish to ask that kind of question in this kind of forum.
Many people here shed countless pounds just by eating real food. You should try that before you go to "miracle drugs".
Everything is bad for something - How do you feel today?
What I don't understand is why you would want to make yourself miserable like that...not to mention, hungry? That's what a diet without fat will make you, in my humble opinion. Yes, you may lose some weight, but the lack of fat, misery and hunger will give you massive cravings so as soon as you start to eat 'normally' again the chances are you'll overdo the things you've not been allowed on the diet and end up right back where you are now.
If primal isn't working for you, there's something that you're not doing right - for you! Tweak and test, tweak and test. I've been doing it for over a year and have only just stumbled upon the formula that seems to be working for me.

Arand resigns as coach of South Whidbey girls soccer team
Paul Arand has resigned as South Whidbey's girls head soccer coach.
"During the past two seasons, I seem to have lost the magic touch needed to produce a winning high school team," Arand said in an e-mail, "so I think that it's time that I pass the ball to someone else who can."
South Whidbey athletic director John Patton was surprised by Arand's resignation. Patton praised Arand's commitment and talents as the head coach.
"I am very appreciative of Paul and his efforts for the past 12 years leading our girls soccer program," Patton said. "He is a very knowledgeable coach who was dedicated to our program."
Arand thanked notable all-state players Claudia Gil-Osorio, Willa Purser, Katie Watson, Kelsey Kimmel, Jenna Wild and Rita Jones. He credited the numerous players he coached during his tenure for the Falcons' successes, including a 118-100 record, a conference title in 2003, district championships in 2000 and 2003, a third-place finish in the 2000 state tournament and a second-place finish in 2003. On the success of the 2003 season, Arand was also voted the conference coach of the year and The Herald's coach of the year.
"I'd like to thank my wife and family for supporting me during this incredible journey," Arand said. "I'd also like to thank the many parents and fans who helped me in my effort to support the girls."
He also thanked the seven assistant coaches he worked with: Bill McCabe, Joel Gerlach, Mike Cotton, Jane Gerlach, Dana Hajduk, Katie Watson and Gary Peterson.
South Whidbey is searching for Arand's replacement. Patton said he will interview applicants in June, and the position is already posted.
"We are hoping to have a coach in place before the school year ends."
Patton said he anticipates the enthusiasm of the new coach to counter any transitional slumps.
"There's always a transition that takes place," Patton said. "But often times when you have a new coach heading a program, it brings in a new enthusiasm and excitement which often translates to more participants. I am confident that we will find a quality individual."
South Whidbey's former coach will continue to be part of the soccer community. He said he plays pickup soccer games and also volunteers with South Whidbey's youth soccer teams.
"Having participated in many sports, I've been drawn to soccer because it mimics life," Arand said. "It's fluid, complex, social, and demanding. There is no other game on earth that requires such physical stamina, mental focus and skills training. Success in soccer stems from total team commitment and support."

As Filter magazine pointed out in its review of buzz band the Orwells' 2012 debut, "Remember When," the first thing most writers mention about the ensemble is that its members are five 17-year-old (then, at least; they're legal now) boys, straight from the suburbs of Chicago. At their tender age, the group is a perfect conduit for the kind of untender, we-gotta-get-out-of-this-place teen angst that's fed rock 'n' roll for more than half a century: full of unformed desires, wild energy, coursing hormones and loud guitars.
Watch suburban punks the Orwells hang out at the mall:
On New Year's Eve 2012 in New Orleans, the Orwells made a splash (largely of beer and sweat) opening for fellow snotty garage-punks the Black Lips, who are, in their way, the seniors to the Orwells' freshmen in the high school of primitivist swagger and fuzz. Both bands sonically channel a gentler era of juvenile delinquency, when the electric guitar was a parent's nightmare and a kid's liberator. March 11, expect another night of breathless, high-octane teenage kicks.
The Orwells play One Eyed Jacks (615 Toulouse St.) Monday, March 11, 10 p.m. Heavy blues-rockers the Kingston Springs open. Tickets: $10.

Hoping for some opinions on this one....
I've had the LevelD B763 for a couple of years and I've just gone back to using it after a while on PMDG stuff. I can't remember whether it was like this all along but it seems to me that an unrealistic amount of thrust is needed when taxiing on the ground. Even at relatively light weights 45-50% N1 is required to get the aircraft moving and this goes up to almost 60% when at MTOW. Even take off thrust seems excessive - derated take offs are much more sluggish than I believe they should be and I'm using 110% just to get airborne
I'm wondering if I have unwittingly done something to the FDE?. Does anyone else think the same or has had a similar issue? is there a way to adjust the power settings within the aircraft.cfg?
I remember from a thread on here (which I now can't find!!) of an update for the FDE to increase the power when using reverse thrust. I updated my FDE accordingly and I wonder if this could have influenced any other power settings.
Grateful for any opinions or suggestions.

text: You're talking about the handful of folks who have had issues. Every bike has some. You don't hear from the ones who have nothing to complain about, like my brother and the several other people I know who have the new motor. This notion of constant wrenching on the new bikes is nonsense. No sweat if you don't want one, but you're not exactly speaking from experience in your assessment. My own Bullet is the old motor (well sorted and very reliable, but yes limited to 60mph cruising with bursts up to 80), but if I could buy a new bike right now it would be one of the new Bullets or an Ural sT.

SAGINAW -- Josh Shalla may be chasing the Saginaw Spirit's team goals record, and Brandon Saad may be one of the hottest forwards in the league right now.
But rookie Jimmy Lodge is the one developing a knack for notching the big goal.
Lodge picked up a loose puck near his own blueline late in the second period Sunday, started a 2-on-1 break and launched a wristshot from the hashmarks past Owen Sound goaltender Jordan Binnington.
The goal gave the Spirit the lead and stood up as the game-winner in their 4-2 win over the Attack in front of 4,153 Sunday afternoon at The Dow Event Center.
Lodge now has seven goals on the year, tops among Spirit rookies. Three of those have been game-winners, tying him for the most of any Spirit skater.
"I've been telling him I want him to shoot more," Spirit coach Greg Gilbert said of Lodge. "He's got a great quick release, just a flick-of-the-wrist wristshot, and he's usually pretty accurate with it."
Lodge took that advice to heart Sunday -- he had the opportunity to pass, but opted to aim for the bit of daylight over Binnington's left shoulder.
"Yesterday I had a perfect opportunity to shoot and I gave it up," Lodge said. "And then today, I do."
The win was the Spirit's second in two days, after a 6-2 Saturday night win over Sarnia, and gave the team five out of a possible six points in a three-games-in-three-days weekend.
After being on the outside of the playoff picture looking in just six weeks ago, the Spirit now find themselves in the midst of a battle for home ice advantage with 12 games to play.
The Spirit are now one point behind fifth-place Sarnia and two points behind fourth-place Owen Sound. The Sting have two games in hand.
The significance of notching regulation wins against both teams on the weekend wasn't lost on the Spirit players.
"They're both four-point games, that's the way we look at them," defenseman Brandon Archibald said. "If they win those games, it's a tougher gap to close."
Archibald finished the final two games of the weekend a combined plus-seven. His defensive partner Brad Walch finished plus-six.
"Both being older D in the league, that's what we have to do every night is go out and work hard and give our team a chance to win every night," Archibald said.
Shalla got the Spirit on the board late in the first period, taking a cross-ice feed from Walch and burying it.
Carlos Amestoy and Saad also recorded goals for the Spirit.
Clint Windsor started in net for Saginaw, and recorded 31 saves. His performance came a night after Jake Paterson record a two goals against, 41-save performance.
"Both of our goalies, whoever starts, whoever plays is playing well for us," Archibald said. "We're going to need that in the playoffs especially."
Shalla's goal was his 33rd of the season, and put him six behind Ryan McDonough on the team's career goals list. It also gave him goals in eight straight games, matching the longest streak by any OHL player this year.
Shalla also recorded his 200th point in a Spirit uniform Sunday, tying him for fourth with Tom Pyatt on the team's career list.
- Rookie forward David Perklin recorded an assist on the Spirit's third goal, marking his first OHL point.
- Saad's goal extended his point streak to 15 games, tied for the third-longest streak in the league this year.

Iconic Birmingham
Second only to London as the most populous UK city, Birmingham has risen from the tangible ashes of World War II to become a surprising beacon of the Midlands. The city was at the heart of the Industrial Revolution and has embraced the history carved out in its canals and factories by modernizing around them. Beautiful walkways line canals, shopping opportunities are plentiful, museums and galleries like the Ikon gallery provide sensational art and culture and the list of clubs and bars is immense. Though not a picturesque city, iconic structures such as the Bullring can still impress and before you know it you'll become enamoured with the warmth of the city and its very distinctly accented residents.
Travelling to and around Birmingham
Birmingham International airport is a major airport situated 8 miles outside of central Birmingham providing a number of direct flights to European and domestic destinations. The center can be easily reached from Birmingham International Rail Station or by bus, coach and taxi. Once in the city, bus routes are extensive and one of the best ways to move around. Most of the center of Birmingham is pedestrianised making it easy to navigate on foot once there and taxis are also an option, though challenging to find on Friday and Saturday nights. Download the Network West Midlands App for information on routes and timetables for public transport.
Chocolate, canals and culture
Whether your interest lies in art, culture or even chocolate, this city aims to please. Two must see museums are the Thinktank, Birmingham's immersive Science museum located at the Millennium Point complex, and the Birmingham Museum and Art gallery, an important collection spanning fine art and archeology as well as local and industrial history. If you still have room to learn whilst being entertained, a visit to the National Sea Life Centre will provide a fitting end to the educational triad. For a unique way to explore the city and its extensive canals join a canal cruise and coast through the striking Gas Street Basin from a comfortable, seated position. The shopping savvy should head to the Bullring, not only home to a plethora of shops, but also one of the famed Selfridges stores in the UK. The sweet toothed will be happy to sugarcoat their trip with a visit to the Cadbury World experience situated in Birmingham, ready to give you a background to the brand as well as a taste of their delicious chocolate.
Nightlife and entertainment
The city is buzzing on Friday and Saturday nights and with so much choice available, even the odd evening after work can find watering holes quite occupied. For an all in one experience, The Arcadian located in Southside provides the full package. With bars, restaurants, a comedy club and nightclub on one lot, you're covered for evening fun. The Hippodrome and Old Rep theatres and Electric cinema are close and have an interesting schedule of events so make sure to see what's playing. The NEC, LG and NIA arenas also put on some superb events from gigs to wine fairs and TV shows so again, check what's on and download the Birmingham IN Guide app to discover the city's best hangouts and hotspots. Broad Street is one of the most popular in Birmingham, a half-mile of bars and clubs where there is something for everyone, though It can get quite rowdy on the street. If you're looking for something more upmarket in the way of bars and restaurants, try The Mailbox, situated in the center of Birmingham only 10 minutes from New Street Station.

I did much better with my 586, but I have not shot my Trooper for awhile so that would explain all of my shots in the area to the left of the bullseye as well as the fact that half of the holes in the target were .38Spl +P rounds that some bozo at Wal-Mart put in my bag instead of Winclean so I had to shoot them anyways.

SUMMIT TOWNSHIP - On Tuesday at the Michigan Theatre a newly released musical short story video, "A Mother's Cry," was featured. The Jackson Youth Coalition, David Kash and Hakim Crampton collaborated to put together one of the most dynamic feature short story musical movie videos that tells the stories of the mothers who have lost their children to acts of violence in the streets of Jackson.
The message was loud and clear: We need to do whatever it takes to help prevent the loss of another youth in the streets of Jackson as well as any other city that is experiencing the same type of fatalities.
The story of "A Mother's Cry" written by Kash and directed by Crampton, is a must-see short story musical video. The movie also includes interviews with Jackson County Youth Center Director Teresa Hawkins and John Willis, who is the director of the King Center, and WILX and WLNS news interviews featuring Hakim Crampton. Jackson's own R&B singer David Kash did a live performance singing "A Mother's Cry," which mesmerized the audience.
There were approximately 220 concerned residents who attended this event according to the Michigan Theatre staff count, and the admission was free. "A Mother's Cry" is available on Facebook for viewing.

ALLEGAN, MI – Perrigo Co. is working to close its $8.6 billion deal to merge with Elan Pharmaceuticals of Dublin and to pass regulatory requirements to reincorporate itself in Ireland.
Moving ahead with those things will help the company, said Arthur Shannon, vice president of investor relations and corporate communications.
It is expected to give Perrigo a new platform to expand its international operations and its operations in the United States.
"We can actually buy more in the U.S. now," Shannon said.
Speaking of the corporate tax structure in Ireland – which is at a 12.5 percent rate versus the 35 percent rate in the U.S. – he said, "It's a nice structure for us to use to do acquisitions and products."
John T. Hendrickson, executive vice president of Perrigo global operations and supply chain, has said Perrigo expects the deal to result in about $150 million in annual operating and tax savings.
Perrigo announced the deal in late July to merge with Elan, a 53-year-old Irish biotech company that has a lucrative royalty stream from the sale of blockbuster Multiple Sclerosis treatment Tysabri to pharmaceutical maker Biogen. Tysabri realized about $1.6 billion in sales last year.
The cash-and-stock Elan transaction, which should close by the end of the calendar year, is worth $6.7 billion. Including Elan's existing cash, it is estimated to be worth $8.6 billion.
The combined companies will be incorporated in Ireland as New Perrigo. But company executives have said "redomiciling" in Ireland will mean no operational, management or structural changes in Allegan or Michigan. The company's top brass will remain in Allegan.
As announced previously, Shannon said the company will use its large cash balance and royalties from sales of Tysabri to pay down debt.
Asked if the company's growth strategy has changed, Shannon said, "It's exactly the same, the things we were looking at."
Perrigo continues to try to grow through the acquisition of companies whose products serve categories that are adjacent to those it already makes and sells.
Although he would not say what companies or products the company may be interested in presently, Shannon said adjacent categories include diabetes care, adult nutrition (products such as nutritional-supplement drinks and protein drinks) and over-the-counter ophthalmics (such as dry-eye treatments).
"Then we are looking to expand in the rest of the globe," he said.
Among generic pharmaceutical makers, he said, "We're No. 1 in the United Kingdom. We'd like to be in the rest of Europe as well."
He said construction work to expand Perrigo's capacity to produce tablets in Holland, Mich., and in Allegan is going very well. He said the company continues with plans to spend about $300 million in Michigan over the next three to five years.
Allegan-based Perrigo is a maker of over-the-counter and generic prescription pharmaceuticals, nutritional products, infant formulas and animal health products, as well as active pharmaceutical ingredient.
It is the world's largest manufacturer of over-the-counter pharmaceuticals sold under the brand names of major

Versatile, portable, and easy, healthful kale chips might be a way for people who don't normally like leafy greens to enjoy the healthful benefits of these nutritional treasures.
Just wash some fresh kale, or collard greens or other greens, cut them into chip-size pieces, give them a very light coating of oil either in a bowl or in a bag, then spread them on a sheet pan and bake them for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees, until they are crispy.
There are so many good things to say about kale chips, or collard green chips, it's hard to know what's most important. It's easy to take them along on trips to the fair, where it might otherwise be awkward to take some cooked leafy greens. They make a snack like potato chips but they're awfully good for you. And people who don't really like leafy greens taste them and say "Wow, these don't even taste like kale! I like these! I could eat these!" Maybe that's the most important thing of all, then. If they are a way to enjoy leafy greens and you wouldn't otherwise eat kale, then this could be a great new way to get healthy.
Of course, I love kale anyway, and for me this is just one more way to enjoy them!
The part about how easy it is to take them along for lunch when I go out and about, though…. I think that's pretty darn cool, as well.
Kale Chips — pretty awesome, huh?

Few months ago , I bought a Chromecast. It was a nice little device that allowed me to cast stuff from my mobile to my TV. I bought it for my Bedroom TV as I already have an Apple TV for the living room. The main reason why I bought it was to stream Twitch from my mobile phone to the TV. However I wanted Chromecast just to do more in Malaysia. For example with my Apple TV , I am able to watch hulu and netflix , thanks to unotelly. I just want to replicate the same steps , so I changed my DNS to Unotelly DNS in my router. This simple step should work , because all of my computers in the network would automatically use Unotelly DNS – except for Chromecast

A black Denver resident is three times more likely than a white resident to be shot by law enforcement. Latino residents are nearly twice as likely to be shot. At a time when the shooting death of an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Mo., has brought tensions between police and minority communities to the forefront, Rocky Mountain PBS I-News has found that racial disparities persist in police shootings in Denver. Seven of the 33 people shot by Denver police and sheriff's deputies in the past five years were African American, according to data collected by the Office of the Independent Monitor, a city watchdog. That's about 21 percent, compared with an overall black population in Denver of 9.7 percent during roughly the same period, according to Census data. Continue Reading →

Education gaps in Colorado narrowing
Black and Latino adults in Colorado narrowed some of the wide education gaps with their white counterparts last year, according to an I-News analysis of new U.S. Census Bureau data. Colorado no longer has the largest gaps in the nation in college graduation rates between black and white residents and both Latino and black adults saw high school graduation gaps narrow to their lowest levels in decades. "That's good news all the way around," said Lt. Gov. Joe Garcia, who also is executive director of the Colorado Higher Education Department. "It's the result of more focus and more collaboration between K-12 and higher education."
However, income, poverty and home ownership disparities between whites and the state's largest minority groups remained unchanged between 2010 and 2012, the analysis found. An I-News investigation published earlier this year of six decades of Census data found that minority gains made in key economic and education areas had eroded over time. Continue Reading →
Social progress from civil rights movement lost
By some of the most important measures of social progress, black and Latino residents of Colorado have lost ground compared to white residents in the decades since the civil rights movement. Minority gains made during the 1960s and 1970s have eroded with time, an I-News Network analysis of six decades of demographic data from the U.S. Census Bureau found. In other categories, the gaps between whites and minorities have steadily widened since 1960. The analysis focused on family income, poverty rates, high school and college graduation and home ownership. Health data and justice records examined also revealed disparities. Continue Reading →

Maybe this is a classic case of a question getting lost in translation.
Or maybe Ilya Kovalchuk has simply decided to make a much different impression than the Devils had in mind.
Because, asked yesterday if he had felt urgency to make a positive one after signing the $100-million mega-deal that went against the defining philosophy of this franchise, the response was a surprise, to say the least.
"Yeah, but I've got 15 years to make an impression," Kovalchuk said. "It doesn't have to be right away."
Who knows? Maybe he thought he was signing a 15-year mortgage. Or he could be trying to redefine how society views long-term deals in general. Imagine trying the Kovalchuk philosophy on your spouse the next time you miss an anniversary or a birthday.
"Hey, our agreement was 'until death do us part,' remember? I've still got time to buy that gift!"
The Devils and their Russian star might be newlyweds, but this much is clear: If this team is going to survive its rockiest start since Wayne Gretzky dubbed them a "Mickey Mouse organization," Kovalchuk must prove he can elevate it in a way only a great one can.
He has to become that dominant sniper, the one who makes scoring goals look so effortless. The Devils haven't seen anything close to that yet — and he better show up soon, because no matter what the calendar might say, this season is in danger of slipping away.
This team is in serious trouble. Last night, in their 3-0 loss to the Rangers, it was like an ECHL game broke out at the Rock every other line change. Names like Magnan and Mair and Mills logged significant ice time for the injury-riddled Devils. There was a Gionta out there, but not that Gionta.
Zach Parise is out for three months with a knee injury, one of a half-dozen crucial players who were injured. It isn't too early for concern: The Devils have played the most games in the Eastern Conference but have the second fewest points, an awful combination for a team with this many issues.
They also have scored the fewest goals, and that falls on Kovalchuk. He needed a good start; instead, it's been the worst of his career. He has often looked like a man who has that $100 million — in rolls of quarters — strapped to his back as he plays.
"You can find all kinds of excuses but you really have to look in the mirror and say, 'What can you do better?'" he said. "I just have to keep working harder and I'll be okay."
His three measly goals puts him on pace for about 18, and not the 50 or so the Devils expected. The veterans talked about how the responsibility to salvage this season falls on 23 players, and not just one.
"He cannot put that all on himself," Patrik Elias said. "It's impossible."
But, fair or not, the guy with the nine-figure contract bears a greater burden than anyone else — ask Alex Rodriguez or Derek Jeter. If this team sees its 13-season playoff streak snapped after making the boldest free-agent acquisition in its history, it won't be hard to pinpoint who will absorb most of the blame.
This is not to second-guess the decision to sign him. I thought it was the right move in the summer and still do. The Devils had too many first-round flameouts not to try something dramatic, and no team made more news — or angered the NHL brass — more than they did.
Nothing was easy in getting the deal done, so maybe it's fitting nothing has been easy since, either. Kovalchuk has switched from left wing to right wing and back to left again.
He has played with three centers and, in one inglorious moment, was a healthy scratch after he was late for at least one team meeting.
And did we mention those three goals? They leave him in a 64-way tie for 87th place in the league, along with likes of Alex Golisoski and Guillaume Latendresse and several others not making $100 million.
"People don't give you much patience when you spend that amount of money," goalie Martin Brodeur said. "Let's revisit this conversation in a year or two from now and see how it pans out."
Brodeur believes signing Kovalchuk will pay off this season, that with the Devils' run of success, the franchise never has the high draft choices that could land a player of his talent.
"Then again if we don't pick it up this year," he laughed, "we might have a great pick next year."
Which is why Kovalchuk needs to get working on that impression now. Because, no matter what happens in the coming weeks, he'll be making one. Good or bad.
