CANADA STOCKS-TSX slides to lowest level in nearly a week
* TSX pares losses, down 0.6 percent at 12,836.49
* Materials group gives up gains, joins broad decline
* RIM among few blue-chips on the rise (Adds details)
TORONTO, Nov 10 (Reuters) - Toronto's main stock index slid on Wednesday morning as the materials group gave up early gains, pushing the composite to its lowest level in nearly a week.
The TSX opened flat on broad weakness with the pressure alleviated by strength in the materials group, but that heavyweight sector soon lost nearly 1 percent itself as the price of gold turned lower and spot silver fell to a session low.
Teck Resources TCKb.TO fell 1.1 percent to C$47.90, while Kinross Gold (K.TO: Quote) dropped 1.2 percent to C$18.40.
Slower than expected import data from China, concerns about the U.S. Federal Reserve's asset purchases and European debt levels, and the upcoming Group of 20 summit in Seoul were some of the factors behind the drop in Toronto stocks.
"We're seeing the confluence of a lot of events here," said Michael Sprung, president of Sprung & Co Investment Counsel, adding that it was also natural for investors to lock in some profits after the recent rally.
"The loss is picking up quickly." Continued...

We hired Robert Crabtree upon a recommendation of another family who had worked with him on an educational placement issue for their child. We needed representation, guidance, and advocacy with regards to the educational needs of our son with autism.
Bob is one of the most well known, well respected, and experienced lawyers in the field of educational law, and now having worked with him, I understand why. When we first contacted his firm, his assistant was very helpful and informative about how to proceed. We were able to meet with him in a short time frame. He gave us excellent guidance about what professional to to engage to assess our son and identify realistic goals for him. He was realistic about the process, preparing us for the many roadblocks we would encounter, but also gave us the encouragment to endure the process. He always responded to our many questions promptly and kept us apprised about developments as they happened. He kept us fully in the loop and understanding what we needed to do.
Because of his vigilance and expertise, we were able to avoid litigation, reach an agreement with the school system, and secure a place for our son in an appropriate educational setting with the right services and supports. I know that if we had not found him, we would probably still be in the middle of this process and losing precious time. I can say with confidence that the change in our quality of life has been dramatic since our son is in an appropriate setting. We are seeing the improvements in his functioning pervade every aspect of his life. This has restored our hope in the future of our family.
We will always grateful to Bob as we know that none of this would have been possible without him. We would recommend him highly to anyone looking for legal assistance in an educational matter.
Posted by Tina
Our family's relationship with Bob has spanned a decade with both of our children. His knowledge and common sense approach to complex issues that are neither black nor white is most refreshing and welcome. He was always exremely accessible to us and never more so than we were in crisis and needed to take quick action. He is also very ethical and kept our emotional and finacial wel being in mind when rendering advice. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Bob helped us through the most difficult time in our lives by methodically steering us through the maze of the public education system and getting our daughter into the environment that gives her the best chance to succeed. He is not only up to date on the latest legal information and developments in Education and Disabilities, he is extremely skilled and sensitive to the clients expectations, state of mind etc. He addresses the whole situation, not just the legal aspects. I would highly reccommend Bob for anyone seeking counsel for their educational issues.

An exceptional individual...knowledgable and proficient. In his specialty area of Specialized Education" I would highly endorse Attorney Crabtree.
Posted by anonymous
His knowledge of the law and his advocacy skills are outstanding. The empathy and sensitivity that he has carries over to the needs of the children. He is not only a great counselor, he is also a great advocate. Thanks to Bob, our daughter is not only physically in the school she needs to be in, but also in a great place within herself.
Posted by Teresa
Bob Crabtree is an excellent lawyer and represented my sons on several ocassions in regards to special education. He is thoroughly knowledgable about C.766 and keeps up-to-date on all hearings - knowing what has worked and what has proven unsuccessful. This has been extremely useful in our cases because, as I've learned, it not always about what the law says once you go to hearing. He develops and works as a cohesive team with my sons providers and recommended several providers that were also excellent. He took a leadership role among all the providers to make sure my sons had the best representation for our cases. We have used Bob several times and he was always successful in getting us the services we needed but I think Bob would also be straightforward if he did not think your case was going to be successful. I would highly recommend Bob Crabtree and already have on several ocassions.

Zooey Deschanel finds music a (Pooh) bear necessity
By Steve Pond
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Writing a song for a Disney animated film puts a songwriter into a long and legendary line that has produced 30 nominations and 10 wins going back to "When You Wish Upon a Star" in 1940.
And writing a song for a "Winnie the Pooh" movie is just as daunting a task, because it requires a songwriter to follow in the footsteps of Richard and Robert Sherman, who penned the well-known "Pooh" theme song and also wrote "Chim Chim Cher-ee," "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious," "It's a Small World" and "I Wan'na Be Like You," among many others.
"The tradition of music in Disney animated films is pretty spectacular. But I tried not to think about it, because I might be overwhelmed if I did," said actress and singer-songwriter Zooey Deschanel, who couldn't exactly ignore that history when she was drafted to contribute to this year's Disney version of the A.A. Milne stories.
Her initial task, after all, was to record a new version of the Sherman brothers' theme song. When that went well, she was asked to write and record an end-credits song, which turned out to be "So Long," one of the film's two Oscar entries. And after that, she was asked to contribute vocals to other songs in the film ... all while finishing a tour with her band, She and Him, and getting ready to begin filming her new TV series, "The New Girl."
"It kind of happened in little bits and pieces over the course of the year," Deschanel told TheWrap.
"That's the thing with music for me. Songwriting was always something that I did in my private time as a release, very much on my own. It didn't come out into the world until later in my life. But now, as my schedule has gotten so weird and so busy, I feel like I need to keep going back to it."
Deschanel first got involved with "Winnie the Pooh" when music supervisor Tom McDougall showed her a 10-minute segment that had been cut to a She and Him song, and asked if she'd record the title song. She enlisted bandmate Matt Ward (who goes by M. Ward) to produce, and settled on an approach to a song whose original version was recorded by a large chorus of anonymous singers.
"I think there was something that Matt and I saw in that song that we could pull out, that wasn't really focused on in the original recording," she said. "That was the warmth and the intimacy of the song. Continued...

Obviously, you didn't buy your 2000cs unless you knew that you wanted long-lasting quality and a trusted brand both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV. You purchased your 2000cs because its a reputation for performance and European styling struck a chord inside you; so why would you be okay with anything but the best when it comes to great quality auto parts? It's not all the time that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Clutch Master Cylinder to repair your car or truck. Anyone who operates a BMW knows that when it comes to fixing their vehicle only the absolute best replacement parts will do.
Using hydraulic pressure to accomplish a task is a millennia old feat of engineering. Your BMW 2000cs has a manual transmission, and it requires the clutch master cylinder to govern the movement of your clutch disc. Your BMW 2000cs clutch master cylinder has a piston inside of it that compresses hydraulic fluid as the pedal depresses, and then sends it via a hose to the slave cylinder and fork on your clutch. On vehicles that don't use a clutch master cylinder, your manual transmission would use a cable to actuate the fork.
Don't let a Clutch Master Cylinder repair spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by buying anything but the highest quality repair parts. Given all the hassles associated with repairing damage to your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the most authoritative website you go to make purchasing it easy. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents available with enough expertise to help you purchase the appropriate BMW 2000cs part for your needs.

GBP/AUD: buy target - 2.0550
By: Dima Chernovolov
- GBP/AUD reversed from support zone
- Next buy target - 2.0550
GBP/AUD yesterday reversed up with the daily Japanese candlesticks reversal pattern Hammer from the support zone lying between the support level 2.0200 and the 38.2% Fibonacci Correction of the previous sharp upward impulse from the start of June. The upward reversal from this support zone continues the active minor impulse wave 3 (which belongs to the 3rd intermediate impulse (3) from March).
GBP/AUD is likely to rise further inside the active minor impulse wave 3 toward the next buy target at the resistance level 2.0550 (which stopped the previous impulse wave (iii)).

Forgetting All The Memories
They had started walking after Lolita hadn't been able to tell them anything. Carmen didn't like the silence: it was making her feel edgy, giving her mind time to freefall back to those memories she had tried so hard to lock away.
She had sneaked a glance at Jeredynn, who had also been trying to glance her way; the moment their eyes met then looked away made her remember that night, as young children they had eavesdropped on their parents. She knew her parents had had something to do with the Guild and the Lucis Organization which resided there, and so had Jeredynn's. They were born into this whether they had wanted to be or not. She wondered when as a child she had decided to banish all the memories of her younger years into the dark recesses where she never looked, not even in her nightmares. Now she was dredging up everything; back in the committee room, a spark had been created and now the flames had spread.
To divert her thoughts from the past she focused on looking around the street; they were walking aimlessly as they had no idea where the shadows or the Director had gone. She had the uneasy feeling of being watched; her fingers were twicthing by her side reflexively for her gun, and the back of her neck was prickling. It wasn't paranoia - Carmen knew to trust her instincts. She kept walking at her normal pace, and in her peripheral vision spotted a slight movement in a narrow alley between buildings across the street. Someone over there was watching them.

The Man, The Legend
It was eight grade, I was green as grass. Having just grown 6 inches and gained 30 pounds over the summer following my first growing spurt, I had no idea what to expect from my body. I did know that I liked to jump and I was pretty good at it for my age.
The track coach had us all gather at the sand pit as he signaled to an upperclassman he called Phil to come give us a demonstration of something called a "pop-up". I was chomping at the bit to show what I could do.
Phil bounced over to the middle of the runway resembling a kangaroo in his movements. Hesitating only for an instant, he took 3 or 4 long strides and hit the board, which seemed like it was placed a mile from the pit, giving me the notion that no normal human could possibly reach the pit from there. Springing into the air while rotating his feet in a running motion Phil then landed softly in to the sand, the coach clapping his hands and yelling,
Wow, it did look like he had springs for legs. I had to do THAT.
"Boys, that was a long-jump, pop-up. No-body calls it a Broad-Jump any more", "Boing", the coach repeated, show these young future stars what a triple-jump looks like."
"Sure", Phil said as he bounded back to about half way down the runway.
Then I noticed another board, which I though was put on the runway by mistake. It was over twice as far from the pit as the long-jump board. Turns out it was further than that at 32 feet.
This time Phil ran faster toward the pit, hitting the further board on his left leg, then landing on the same leg, springing off that leg to land on his right leg which he used to jump into the pit.
"Boys", the coach said, "you just witnessed one of the best triple-jumpers in the country, do what he does better than almost anyone else."
I was in awe.
Phil Parker was not bound to the earth by the same gravity that afflicted so many of us mortals. Phil was a beauty to behold on the basketball court as he skied above the rim, literally a foot above any one else.
Greatness comes in many forms. You may think that to be a great athlete you must be in the bright spot light, breaking national and world records, or break into the professional ranks. Did you know that less than 1 (one) percent of all athletes (not the population, but athletes) are considered world-class. So to achieve what Phil has in his athletic career is still in the nose-bleed area of sports. Phil was ranked 4th in the nation in High school in a state that had almost never had athletes of that caliber before. Phil was the first person from Georgia ever to be invited to the national track meet in California called the Golden West, where he placed 4th.
He was a full scholarship athlete at Florida State where he was a college All-American in the Triple-jump. These are just impressive stats and numbers and don't make the man. The man is made by contribution and effort outside of sports, using his sport only as a tool to further "other people's development", not his own.
That is the Man Philip "Boing" Parker was when I met him and still is today almost 50 years later. Phil became a teacher of course. No matter what profession he had chosen he would have always been a teacher. But Phil chose the direct, noble path to helping others. Selfless.
After Phil went back to his work out, Coach had us all take a long-jump from the close board which was 12 feet to the pit. I was the only one to make the pit and my jump was 18 feet. I guess that got the attention of Phil and the coach. My future was certain.
Phil mentored me through his junior year and senior year. I was like a puppy dog. I followed him everywhere, I copied his walk, his talk, his clothing, his shoes and I tried to learn his triple-jump form. I don't remember speaking two words to him.
Phil's senior year was a thing to behold. Not only did he win everything he competed in but he drew a crowd. All the talking and milling about stopped when Boing stood at the end of the runway. The jumps were conceded to him. Every one else fought for second place. The only thing to be determined was by how much Phil would break the meet record.
I could only practice and learn. I matched his approach run up distance with my own. I used tape and shoes just like Phil. My favorite training exercise was running the stadium steps, just as I'd seen Phil do so many times after a hard practice when everyone else was in the shower or on their way home.
Then before Phil graduated, in my arrogant self-important stile, I told Phil I was going to break all of his records. He only smiled and said "good", and continued to support me in every way possible. Not only that, but at Sandy Springs High school, there was a senior tradition to "will" something to an underclassman. I was shocked and beamed with pride when I read that Phil willed his nickname "Boing" to me!

Top 10 Tips for Cooking at Sea
1. Prepare meals ahead of time: Before leaving on a passage, we try to prepare as many meals as possible before we leave the dock. It takes a few days for your body to adjust to around-the-clock watch routines so make everything easy. Like many long-distance sailors, Paul is especially susceptible to seasickness during the first three days of a passage so we plan light, easily digestible foods.
2. Store everything you need for meal preparation near the galley: If everything is close at hand, you will do a better job of preparing good meals since it will be less tiring than running here and there digging deep in lockers on a pitching boat. You will also be less likely to fall or injure yourself.
3. Know what you've got and where it is: Don't waste your time and energy digging through lockers unnecessarily. Keep a good inventory list so you know exactly what you've got and where it is.
4. Top everything up before you leave the dock: Running out of dish detergent, having to change a toilet paper roll or finding the flour canister empty can bring me to tears if a storm is raging. Topping everything up before you leave the dock reduces effort and irritation.
5. Clean the boat like crazy: Odours can do you in if you're on the verge of 'mal de mar'. Make sure there are no sour sponges, dirty dish towels, gruesome laundry or icebox gremlins waiting to turn your stomach. Do your best to clean up spills so you don't slip and fall. Check your fresh produce supply regularly so you're not caught out by a rotting potato or mildewed melon.
6. Add safety features and use them: The safer you feel in the galley, the more pleasant your galley tasks will be. There should be lots of handholds in the galley and a galley strap at the stove so when the going gets rough the chef doesn't land in the soup. We have pot clamps on our gimbaled propane stove to keep things where they should be. We have a stainless steel safety bar in front of the stove (between the cook and 'the cooker') for added protection from burns. At sea I also cover our countertops with non-skid mats to keep bowls and utensils from flying around.
7. Keep it simple: When the weather is rough, it's really better to stay out of the galley, if possible. Design meals to be quick and easy. We snack a lot on passages, especially in foul weather, often having several small meals rather than three major productions per day. It's easier on the digestion and easier on the cook.
8. Come up for air: Stick your head out the companionway occasionally if you're going to be in the galley for a while. It clears your head and makes you feel better.
9. Make clean-up easy: Design your meals so clean-up isn't a major chore. One-pot dinners served on paper plates makes life easier for everyone when the going gets rough.
10. Make time to sit together and eat: Being only two on a yacht while underway can make it tempting to alternate long watches and pass each other like ships in the night. Help your relationship and avoid loneliness by sitting and eating together – even if it is only for 10 minutes, take the time to catch up and ask each other how you're feeling.

So nice to finally meet our Lucky For Life big winner from last month. Nineteen year-old Ana D. from New Castle matched 5 numbers on a ticket she purchased in El Jebel for the August 1st drawing.
Originally from the Grand Junction area, she waited weeks to claim her prize since she's been busy with medical school in Mexico. Ana and her uncle Jose drove 16 hours to our Grand Junction office to claim her winnings. She bought the ticket at City Market after driving a friend to El Jebel. Ana knew the game was brand new (launched in Colorado just 2 weeks earlier!) and decided to give it a shot.
She doesn't have any immediate plans for the money, but she hopes to become a trauma surgeon, so we think the timing couldn't be better.

Castelfranco is possibly the most beautiful leaf of all. Its crimson-flecked, pale yellow leaves have a vaguely bitter flavour that works well with crab and lobster as well as citrus and toasted nuts. Here, I have used it with its seasonal partners, artichokes and blood oranges. The artichokes are served warm, in the Italian fritto style. To check if the corn oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of bread in – it should sizzle.
500ml/17fl oz corn oil
4 globe artichokes
The juice of half a lemon
2 blood oranges
10 leaves of castelfranco
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
50ml/2fl oz extra-virgin olive oil
2tbsp small black olives
A few sprigs of rosemary, leaves only
8 slices Bayonne ham
A few drops of 'tradizionale' balsamic vinegar
Prepare the artichokes by breaking off the tough outer leaves. Cut off the top third of the artichoke leaves and then take a small spoon and scrape out the fluffy central choke. Cut the stem off at the base and place the remaining artichoke in cold water with a little lemon squeezed into it – this will prevent it from discolouring. Repeat with all artichokes.
Slice both ends from the oranges and stand them upright. Cut away the skin and pith and slice into 1/8-in rounds. Wash and pat dry the castelfranco. Tear into lovely, uneven strips with your hands, place in a bowl and season with a little salt and pepper. Squeeze over the juice from the ends of the blood oranges that were discarded earlier. Dress with a few drops of the olive oil – just enough to coat.
Chop the olives roughly. Place in a bowl and add the rest of the olive oil. Chop the rosemary and add to the olives. Stir, add a pinch of salt and stir again.
Heat the corn oil, drop in the artichokes and cook until golden-crisp. This will take a good couple of minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
To arrange the salad, lay the cut blood oranges on a plate. Top with a little castelfranco, some Bayonne ham and the artichokes. Finely spoon the olives over the top. Finish with a drop or two of balsamic vinegar and serve.Reuse content

Three in a row: "Hunger Games" leads box office
By Lisa Richwine
(Reuters) - Movie sensation "The Hunger Games" survived fresh competition from the "Titanic" and the gross-out "American Pie" gang to notch its third domestic box office win over the weekend.
"Hunger Games" took in $33.5 million at U.S. and Canadian theaters from Friday through Sunday and lifted its domestic sales through three weekends to $302.8 million, according to studio estimates released on Sunday.
The Easter weekend receipts for "Hunger Games" topped "American Reunion," a sequel to one of film's biggest comedy franchises, and a 3D remake of "Titanic" timed for the anniversary of the ship's sinking. It was the third straight box office win for "Hunger Games."
International ticket sales since its opening reached $157.1 million through Sunday, bringing the film's combined domestic and overseas receipts to $460 million.
The Lions Gate Entertainment Corp movie about teens forced to fight to the death stormed into theaters on March 23 with a staggering domestic take of $152.5 million, the third-biggest weekend debut and the highest for a non-sequel.
Fan fever, plus a lack of big competitors at multiplexes, has kept "Hunger Games" hot, said Paul Dergarabedian, president of the box office division of Hollywood.com.
"Great word of mouth, coupled with a release date that has given it a pretty open playing field, has allowed the film to effectively dominate the marketplace," he said.
The movie stars Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, the skilled archer and heroine of the post-apocalyptic story based on Suzanne Collins' best-selling young adult novel. Continued...

The Pinnacle Parent Internet Viewer is now available to parents and students at Hamilton Creek School. This internet portal allows parents and students to view their grades and attendance from home. To get your parent or student account please see Registrar at the Hamilton Creek School Main Office.
Keep in mind that, although our goal is to be accurate at all times, this resource represents a new form of communication and, as such, the possibility for errors does exist. Grades and attendance data shown represent a "snapshot in time" and are subject to change on an hourly basis.
The PIV service is not meant to replace direct communication between students/parents/teachers or other school staff members. If you have any questions about any of the information, please discuss them with your child first. Then check the teacher's grading policy before having your child discuss it with his/her teacher(s). If you need further clarification, please contact the appropriate teacher.
Grading and entering scores from assignments and assessments takes time! Please realize that teachers will update their grade book on a weekly basis. Some assignments are long term projects, such as essays and other writing assignments, and may take a week or more to score and be entered. By contract, teachers are obligated to communicate the progress of a student every six weeks. However, PIV offers a more updated "snapshot" form of communication.
- If you notice a grade inaccuracy, remember that teachers are constantly upgrading their grade books, so this may be corrected almost immediately. No grade is final until the report card is printed.
- Grading Codes: The following codes may be entered in the students gradebook:
- M or Z = the assignment is missing. This counts as a zero until the student turns in the missing work.
- R = the assignment has been turned in, but has not been graded. It will be changed once the teacher has graded the assignment and entered it into the Pinnacle database. It is not counted in the total grade average.
- X = the student is excused from this assignment. It is not counted in the total grade average.

So, driven more by people than ideology, he decided to run federally in the Hamilton West riding in the 1965 general election. As he admitted in his memoirs, if his political mentor had been a Liberal, "I probably would have become a Liberal, since until that time I had no party affiliation."
He lost that first election to Liberal Joseph Macaluso by fewer than 2,500 votes. The next time was a different story. Using all kinds of promotional gimmicks, including hiring a marching band to play Alexander's Ragtime Band, he won his seat in Hamilton West by 342 votes, as one of only four urban Tories to make it through the Pierre Trudeau Liberal sweep of 1968. That win gave him the distinction of becoming the first black person elected to the House of Commons. In his maiden speech on Sept. 20, 1968, he said: "I am not the spokesman for the Negro; that honour has not been given to me. Do not let me ever give anyone that impression. However, I want the record to show that I accept the responsibility of speaking for him and all others in this great nation who feel that they are the subjects of discrimination because of race, creed or colour."
Mr. Alexander continued to practise law while the Conservatives were in Opposition, but resigned when he became Minister of Labour in Joe Clark's short-lived minority government in 1979. He voted in favour of the War Measures Act, although he later decided that had been a mistake, "because the issue of limiting rights has far more serious implications that I thought at the time."
He supported the Liberals in the free vote to abolish capital punishment in 1976 and he threatened to break ranks with his own party to vote in favour of anti-hate legislation, saying "screw you" to the P.C. argument that it would curtail freedom of speech. "Are you saying that you can call my son or daughter a nigger and that is free speech?" he asked during debate on the bill. Heath MacQuarrie, then a Tory MP from Prince Edward Island, stood up and said, "I'm not going to let Linc stand alone on this." Together they let 17 members of their caucus in support of the government's legislation.
It was Alexander and Newfoundland MP John Lundrigan who provoked Trudeau into mouthing an obscenity in the House during a discussion of training programs for the unemployed in Feb., 1971, that quickly became known as the "fuddle duddle" incident.
He held his riding for 12 years and five elections, resigning in 1980 to accept an offer from then-Premier William Davis to become Chair of the Workman's Compensation Board of Ontario. He loved politics, but he loved his wife Yvonne more, and after a dozen years living away from his family in Ottawa, it was time to go back to Hamilton. His last day in the House was May 27, 1980.
In his five years at WCBO, the organization underwent its most extensive legislative overhaul since 1915. Also during his tenure, the WCBO sanctioned the use of chiropractors, over the objections of doctors, and created an independent appeals tribunal.
In 1985, Brian Mulroney, then Prime Minister, recommended to Governor-General Jeanne Sauvé that she appoint Alexander the 24th lieutenant-governor of Ontario. When he, the son of an immigrant railway porter, was sworn in on Sept. 20, 1985, the first black man to hold a vice-regal position in the country, Ontario Ombudsman Daniel Hill, who was also black, said the appointment signified "a new Ontario, the new Canada. It's a symbol of the fact that racial intolerance is becoming less acceptable."
Mr. Alexander put three goals at the centre of his mandate: advancing the cause of youth, fighting racism and advocating on behalf of seniors. He loved being Lieutenant-Governor because he loved interacting with people – royalty and commoners alike . During his tenure, Alexander met 290 dignitaries, received 78,283 guests, visited 704 communities, held 715 receptions, visited 2235 schools, shook 240,000 hands, signed 60,000 orders-in-council and cabinet documents and gave royal assent to 551 bills.
His next role was chancellor of the University of Guelph, a position he took on in 1991. After an unprecedented fifth term, spanning 15 years and the conferring of more than 20,000 degrees, he was named University Chancellor Emeritus at a ceremony in June 2007. He was succeeded as Chancellor by broadcaster Pamela Wallin.
A chain smoker since his early 20s, he finally quit his two-pack-a-day habit in 1989. Two years later, he was diagnosed with lung cancer and had surgery to excise the upper lobe of his right lung. Fighting cancer was nothing compared to the death of his wife Yvonne on May 15, 1999 after a long struggle with Alzheimer's disease. He was devastated.
In his late 80s, Alexander was introduced by mutual friends to Marni Beale, a sales representative for the Hamilton Spectator. Despite an age difference of 30 years, they shared a passion for jazz and were married in the summer of 2011.Report Typo/Error

Waiting For You
She sleeps fitfully, the bedcovers covering her thin body like a cocoon. She is dreaming tonight. I can tell. I never thought I would know her habits so well. I know her better than I know myself. She tosses and turns. Her long brown hair is like a halo on her pillow and I long to run my fingers through its silky strands. I reach out, almost out of habit, but stop myself. I don't want to wake her…not when she is smiling so peacefully in her sleep.
Even in her sleep, she searches me out, a hand lazily caressing my pillow as it tries to come closer to me. She is not awake…not yet.
As her smile vanishes and a frown appears on her brow, I know what she is dreaming of. It is the same dream every night. The night that we defeated Voldemort and saved the world from a horrible fate. There were sacrifices made but they had been for the greater good. So many of our friends had perished in that final battle.
She is moaning now, trying to wake up before…
"No!!!" she screams.
She wakes up suddenly and without a second glance throws on a robe and races out of the house. I follow her. I know where she is going.
The rain is falling heavily and I can see that her robe is soaked through. Her hair is like a brown cascade tumbling down her back in thick rivulets. She forgot to put her shoes on. Every once in a while she stumbles but she eventually reaches her destination. I know she wants her privacy. I can at least give her that.
She opens the gate and rushes inside…heading straight for a smooth white tombstone. I cannot bear to see her agony as she hugs the polished stone and wails her grief into the pitiless night.
"Why did you leave me?" she screams.
I cannot take any more of this. I quietly walk over to her and embrace her quietly, almost willing her heart to calm itself. She is still crying but the wild look is gone from her eyes. She sits down on the soaking ground. I sit next to her.
She does not look at me…her grief is still so fresh…so deep. I lean over and kiss her lips softly. I try to reach her soul so that it might begin to heal.
"I love you," I whisper.
She gets up and, kisses the tombstone one more time.
"I love you, Harry and I miss you…so much. Goodbye, Harry. I know I can't be with you for now but please wait for me so that you can show me the way when my time comes," she murmured quietly.
She walks away, still sobbing quietly but more at peace with herself. I watch her go. I wish there were more I could do. I think of the baby that she has only recently found out about. The baby who will have my eyes and her hair…a daughter…Lilliana. This is where she will draw her strength from. I know she will make it.
Standing up, I look down at the inscription on the tombstone…my tombstone:
Here Lies
Harry James Potter
Beloved husband of Hermione
Adored son of James and Lily
Friend to many
The boy who died so that we all might live.
Rest well.
"Goodbye my love, my wife, my Hermione…" I thought as I slowly drifted skyward to that sacred place for all the fallen warriors, "I will be waiting for you."

We were five drinks in. Vera was laughing giddily, and raising her finger at the bartender.
Another glass. I picked it up solemnly and downed it, feeling the fiery liquid burn down my throat.
Her cronies were whooping and cheering for her, but I turned and fixed them with an icy glare and they piped down.
Morrison hesitated, her hand lingering by her drink, but she quickly picked it up and hurled it back.
My spirits sank just as they had started to rise, and I groaned loudly in my head. This was never going to end. I would end up puking everywhere because of my pigheadedness and Vera would just keep knocking them back.
I kept asking for more ice. Nobody was really paying attention to it, but I knew that it would mean I got smaller portions. Hopefully my scientific knowledge would give me an edge over this...redhead bimbo.
I remembered with a pang the fact that I was a couple years out of highschool, and how I'd had to work three jobs and go on welfare to even make it this far.
My eyes stung and I looked at Vera as she ordered another round, laughing and smiling and leaning on the counter dramatically. She could probably buy herself a thousand degrees, and I wouldn't ever have anything more than a diploma.
No. This was it. Swan Lake was mine. I was going to win. I had to win.
There was only so much that my substandard troupe salary could pay for. I wasn't where I was before, but I was still spreading it thin.
Anger flared up, red-hot and raw, and I let the next drink soothe it.
Vera was touching her head and moaning.
I was close. I knew it.
She reached slowly for her drink, but she stopped and pulled a phone from her purse.
"What do you want, Simon? No, I don't give a fuck. I did? Just tell them I'm sick! Oh, for crying out loud!"
Vera hung up, growling.
"I'm sorry, Kat...nernina," she seethed, "But my manager's being an asshole. Put it on my tab."
Morrison got up and stumbled away with her entourage, muttering something about 'poor white trash'.
"You want anything?"
I turned, surprised to see the bartender talking to me.
"Whenever you stop by, my treat."
Someone placed an order and she hurried away, giving me a smile.
Wow, I did not see that one coming.
I stood, promptly feeling my determination rush out of me like air out of a popped balloon. My legs managed to carry me to the doors I'd first spotted, and I pushed through only to realize they were bathrooms.
Bea and Alain were busy making out, so I turned and quickly left before they noticed me.
Somehow I managed to stumble back to the front exit unharmed, finally emerging into the cool night air and breathing it in. The music was pounding in my head, and I clutched my ears as I stumbled on.
It didn't really occur to me that I was rip-roaring drunk, or that I'd stepped out onto the road. I just tottered on, feeling as if my body was much too heavy for my legs. Lights were flashing in my vision.
I commanded my legs to walk on, but I could swear I was floating.
The screeching of tires invaded my senses and I winced, just before I felt something push me, and my body hit the ground.
I blinked bearily to see the bumper of a sleek grey car before pain exploded in my chest and my world grew black.

99. Letters of Intent from SuppliersBy Roger Bryan
Your company has conducted negotiations to sell the products or some facilities, the terms and conditions have been finalized by the both parties. Now, it is the time to issue letter of intent from supplier. The points which should be covered are the dates of start and end of the contract, the payment of compensation, the issue of warranty if required and the payment method.
Basically, the letter of intent from suppliers covers all the important points, which were agreed in the negotiations. The binding and non-binding of the letter of intent from suppliers, depends upon the wording which is employed in the letter. The letter of intent from the supplier depends upon the wording which is employed in the letter. As a supplier, you should make sure, the letter of intent from supplier should be non-binding as if any difficulty arises in eleventh hour and you want to cancel the deal, you can do it easily.
Otherwise, the other party in the business transaction may seek a legal solution of the matter. One of the advantages of the letter of intent from supplier is that it shows that the intention behind the business transaction is serious. It also sets all the parameters of the business between buyers and sellers clearly, so that there is no confusion.

Gullible People: Why Are Certain Ages So Easily Scammed?
There's a reason why it's so easy to play a joke on Grams.
According to a recent study from the University of Iowa, researchers have concluded that specific areas of our brains that have either deteriorated or experienced damage, are the most likely reason why specific age groups are gullible.
Researchers examined patients with several types of brain damage and found that the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) -- a section of your brain located right above the eyes -- controls our beliefs and doubts and is the reason why some people are more likely to fall for scams than others.
It's one thing to fool kids about monsters in the closet or to play a practical joke on co-workers, but researchers at the university were concerned about the vulnerability of seniors.
In the last ten years, both complaints and financial losses among baby boomers have increased, and this trend is expected to accelerate as people age, according to a report by the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College.
This makes Grams and Gramps easy targets for scams, frauds and yes, practical jokes. The Iowa study also found that the vmPFC begins to deteriorate as people pass the age of 60, according to neurology and psychology professor Daniel Tranel.
"We suggest that vulnerability to misleading information, outright deception and fraud in older adults is the specific result of a deficit in the doubt process that is mediated by the vmPFC," the researchers wrote in a press release.
Last year, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Call Centre (CAFC) received over 42,000 complaints from Canadians about marketing frauds with losses close to $48.5 million, according to Yahoo News. What's even worse? The CAFC estimates these stats only represent five per cent of actual scams since most fraud cases don't get reported.
Tranel and researchers at Iowa hope this will enable doctors and health experts to be more understanding when people over the age of 60 make decisions with not only health, but all aspects in life.

Be cautious if you are expected to respond immediately to an opportunity.
Be careful if you are faced with an opportunity from the Internet, an unidentifiable origin or an international source.
If the investment is so complex that it leaves you confused, proceed cautiously.
If it looks too good to be true, it may be a scam.
If you're asked not to tell friends or family members about the investment, you should consider whether it is wise to move forward.

SIMPLIFY. INNOVATE. REFRESH. JAVA & Co.'s Small Business Motto: "If it's not broken...break it..."
In both a strong economy and the challenged weaker economy, the founders and husband and wife team of JAVA & Co. have understood the importance of continued innovation of their product line.
Spending time in research and product development to introduce new products, they found the ever-escalating ingredient, shipping and packaging costs were causing them to re-evaluate some of their existing small batch products for possible discontinuation. The decision to discontinue a product was not based upon poor sales, but instead the unacceptable reality of setting a ridiculous price in order to break even. Pulling from a work philosophy of "if it's not broken, break it", the creative juices flowed.
Beginning with JAVA Snack Bars, this hands-on evaluation process and philosophy led JAVA & Co. down a path of innovation to simplify the ingredient list for the consumer, increase and freshen the flavor profile and refresh and update the Snack Bars. From a business side, JAVA & Co. eliminated their reliance on one high priced vendor, reduced costs and improved the product. JAVA & Co. was able to keep the Snack Bar collection, maintain small batch handcrafted production and showcase a stronger product while maintaining the 2008 retail price!

Canada beat Czechs 2-0 to set up final against Russia
By Michael Kahn
PRAGUE (Reuters) - Canada shut out the Czech Republic 2-0 in the ice hockey world championship on Saturday to set up a final against Russia, who rode four late goals to a 4-0 win over the United States.
The Russians will take on a NHL-stocked Canadian squad on Sunday night that has led all nations in scoring and did not lose a game at the group stage.
Against the Czechs, Canada only mustered two goals due in large part to Czech goaltender Ondrej Pavelec who faced 41 shots and made a number of big saves to keep his team in the game.
The Czechs, playing in front of a boisterous crowd, were energized at the start and tested Canadian goalie Mike Smith a number of times.
Canada opened the scoring midway through the first period when Jordan Eberle held off a defenseman before sweeping it to Taylor Hall, who tapped into the net for his seventh goal of the tournament."It's been a while since Canada has been in the finals and we are aware of that," Hall said. "There are a lot of guys on this team looking for their first world championship."
Jason Spezza doubled the lead in the second period when he whipped in a wrist shot from just over the blue line.
The Czechs appeared to have cut the advantage minutes later when a long slapshot floated into the net but the officials ruled out the goal.
Canada were also able to limit 43-year-old Czech great Jaromir Jagr in what could be his last tournament for the national team. Continued...

Harry Potter Fans, Prepare to Go Mental Over Butterbeer Ice Cream Floats
How to make homemade Butterbeer more magical? Add ice cream.
We rocked the world of millions of Harry Potter fans last year when we came out with homemade Butterbeer. With a few extreme HP fans on staff, we had zero expectations until I woke up the morning after it went out and texted Jo Saltz, the Delish site director, "People are nerds." Y'all loved the idea of recreating the wizard-worthy drink at home.
Now that it's summer—and with the hotly anticipated release of Harry Potter & the Cursed Child on July 31—we had to indulge our HP love and adapt Butterbeer for hot weather. With cream soda and butterscotch syrup, the Butterbeer base gets topped with a buttery whipped cream.
Now you can simply drink it like this if that's your jam, or make it a float by coating the glass in more butterscotch syrup and filling a glass (preferably one adorned with the Hogwarts crest, which was acquired on our recent visit to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter) with vanilla ice cream. The buttery whipped cream makes it true Butterbeer; you'll feel all wizardy and shit.

Evolved Into Nothing
I like to watch you fall before a god who doesn't care,
Are you his Eve or are you Rosaline? Forgotten, discarded in a
Seizure of vanity, pretty pictures, disgusting society,
This is no world for ugly people.
Torn apart in The Machine, you try to
Cheat a system you don't understand while the
Higher Power turns his head away and sends you a
Plague of vacant posing and diet pills.
Plastic people, you lie to us and yourselves,
Seduce us with your glamour, 'cause our minds have
Evolved to synthetic diamonds; needle goes in and nothing hurts

The Night and Days of Kurt: The Continuation
Author: GleekShip
Spoilers: Takes off from Season 2
Summary: The continuation of the Night and Days of Kurt. This time, the boys learn to deal with a public relationship . . . with a few bumps along the way.
Pairings: Kurt/Noah/Sam
The Night and Days of Kurt: The Continuation
Day #80: Part 1
Kurt smiles as they pull into the McKinley High parking lot.
Can this be anymore perfect? We're finally together, nothing tearing us apart. Karofsky has moved on, Finn is coming to terms with himself. We're also bully free at school, no one messes with us anymore. The only problems were what happened at Sam's, but at least Artie and Brittany had the all clear to come back today, so that attack is the only problem, and then it's just us. Finally . . . us.
Kurt looks over at his boyfriends as Noah parks the truck.
"What are you smiling about?" Noah asks, curiosity in his voice.
"Nothing. Nothing at all Noah." He chuckles softly before opening the door and climbing out, hearing Noah question Sam about his smile behind him. "Come on boys. I want to see Brittany before class."
"Yeah." Noah nods as he climbs out as Sam goes the way Kurt did. "I wanna make sure Artie is okay. We might want to make sure he doesn't have to wheel himself to the side of the school like usual. He shouldn't have to work that much." Noah stops by Kurt and Sam, concern for his friend etched in his face. "He might not make it through the day."
"Well . . ." Kurt bites his lip as he looks around, spotting Rachel, Tina, and Mike waiting close to the school, Artie by them. "I'm sure that won't be a problem. But-" He looks back to his fiance's. "We need to make sure it's okay with him. He might not want help."
"Well he's getting it no matter what he wants." Noah sounds so determined.
Sam laughs. "I'm sure he will. Now come on."
Sam takes Kurt's hand and pulls him towards the school, letting Noah do the work of catching up. They feel Noah behind them before he wraps his arms over their shoulders and props himself forward so he can walk behind them and Kurt and Sam can still hold hands.
"You know what?" Noah questions, a smile in his voice.
"Hmm." Kurt raises an eyebrow as he glances at Noah.
"Well when you guys swing your hands back, I can feel you almost hitting my dick." Noah smirks.
Kurt rolls his eyes and glances at Sam with a chuckle. Sam raises an eyebrow and gives Kurt a small nod.
'One.' He mouths to Sam, laughing inside as Noah seems oblivious.
'Two.' Sam is suddenly grinning wide, causing Noah to take notice.
"What are you-"
"Three." Kurt says aloud, cutting Sam off.
They both grin before swinging their intertwined hands back and hitting Noah in the crotch. Noah groans and falls forward, his hands going to cup himself through his jeans. Sam has to pull his hand out of Kurt's so he can grab onto the poor boy. Noah groans as he hides his face in Sam's neck.
"I am so sorry." Kurt can't help but laugh as he moves to hug his poor cringing boy, ignoring the awkward position that Noah makes by having both of his arms down in pain. "Poor baby." He laughs.
"Shush you." Sam whispers to Kurt, a smile in his voice, before looking to Noah. "Come on Noah. We're sorry. We didn't think it hurt that much. And in my defense, Kurt was in control."
"Was not." Kurt hits Sam playfully on the side, ignoring Sam's laugh. "It was Sammy's Noah." Kurt places his head so he's by Noah's ear, the boy still has his head down on Sam. "You should make him have no sex tonight. He doesn't deserve it."
"What?" Sam gapes.
Noah snorts as he looks up, pain still on his face, but a smile as well. "It wasn't that bad babes. I'll just have you both pay extra attention tonight."
"Scout's honor." Sam quickly says.
That word echoes through the air. Kurt freezes. It had been weeks since he last heard that. He can tell by the shocked faces of Noah and Sam, that it had been the same for them as well. There was no reason too.
Kurt slowly turns around, his heart pounding in his chest, as he comes face to face with the voice. His eyes widen as he matches that voice to the old face.
"A-Azimio." Kurt's voice cracks as confusion fills his head. "Wh-what . . . what are you-"
"Choking Hummel." Azimio teases, a dirty smile on his face. "I figured you'd stop choking after this long with the other fags."
"Hey!" Noah yells as he steps in front of Kurt. "I don't know how you got here, but I'll gladly put you away again."
"You think so." Azimio chuckles as he steps forward.
Kurt's eyes widen slightly as from behind the dumpsters, step out nine other jocks, bringing the tally up to ten, the ten jocks that were put away for putting Sam, Noah, and Kurt in the hospital after Quinn outed them to the school.
"B-but how?" Kurt clings to Noah's side and the boy reaches up and and wraps one arm tight around Kurt's shoulders.
Azimio chuckles and glares as Sam wraps his arm around Kurt's waist from the other side. "Well you see boys, we've reformed. Plus you guys got out of the hospitals injury-free from what I heard." His eyes narrow, but he continues on. "And I don't know if you've noticed, it's been two months. We're off Scott free now. Sure they say they'll be watching, but you all know that anything can happen here." He glances at McKinley High.
Kurt lets out a shaky breath and tightens his hold on his boys. "How long have you been out?"
"Well we got out Friday, right?" Azimio looks at the other boys as Kurt lets a small gasp escape his lips with understanding. Azimio turns back to face them, his grin wider as if he could hear Kurt's small gasp across the distance. "And let me tell you boys, we had one rocking party."
"Prove it." Azimio snaps, cutting Sam off.
"Oh god." Kurt mutters.
"You hurt Brittany." Santana says slowly as she comes from behind the boys, they all jumping, not having heard her. "You put her in the hospital." Her voice is low and quiet, but carrying, scaring Kurt.
"She was at a fags house." Azimio shrugs.
"You-" Santana cuts herself off as she launches herself at the boy.
"Noah." Kurt calls out and pushes his fiance after her.
Noah quickly catches her and pulls back. Azimio laughs at them.
"Noticed the police have you." Kurt's eyes flick to the hidden car behind the dumpsters, a cop watching them close, before going back to Azimio. "It seems since we made a mess out here last time, they'll be on the watch for awhile, but that doesn't mean that they'll be in the school."
Santana tries to go after him again, but Noah places her in Kurt's arms, he being the only one that she'll listen to. Kurt wraps his arms tight around Santana and glares back at the boy that he hates so much.
"See you later fags." Azimio spits in their direction and this time, Sam has to hold Noah back as the boys saunter up to the school.
Kurt turns Santana around in his arms and hugs her tight. She hugs him and he can feel her shaking.
"S-San." That broken voice makes Santana look up.
She quickly pulls from Kurt and rushes away. Kurt turns to follow her and stops. All of the New Directions, minus Finn, Mercedes and Quinn, are there watching with sad, concerned, and worried eyes. Brittany is standing close to Artie, using his char as support under her pale body. Artie didn't look any better. He just stared straight, pure anger in his eyes. Everyone knows know. The boys that beat Sam, Noah, and Kurt up, had threw the rocks, hurting several more.
Kurt breaks from his fiance's hold and slowly walks the short distance to his friends. Brittany looks up from the Latina at her side and Artie looks up a tear leaks from his eye. Kurt drops to his knees by Artie, uncaring about his clothes or anyone watching. Artie's bottom lip quivers before he reaches forward and wraps his arms around Kurt, a sob ripping from his body. Kurt suddenly feels Brittany drop to her knees beside them and wrap her arms around them, creating a small group hug.
What will they do next? It seems that they're not afraid of hurting us anymore.
Kurt feels hands on his back, knowing that they belong to the loves of his life. He feels people around them, his friends, trying to protect each other from the cruel world that they've been drug into.
Please . . . just let it stop . . . please . . .
So, what do you think of my twist? I bet you didn't expect that return. It was one that I knew would happen. And this was going to be longer, but it had to stop here. I couldn't put too much drama into this chapter. So sadly, that means that the next chapter will again have a surprised twist. And I'm happy that I'm able to bring in old plot lines and turn them into something new. I feel like a real TV writer. :)
So let me know what you think. I'm really interested in knowing your reaction.
Also, I don't know if I pointed it out, but I posted a long one-shot on Christmas. It shows how Christmas is for these three boys. Go check it out if you want more to read about them.

The tickets are free but there is so much demand from Americans wanting to be present that brokers are demanding five-figure sums - and all hotels within a 60-mile radius of Washington are sold out.
More than 250,000 tickets are being printed for the swearing-in ceremony, when Mr Obama will stand in front of Capitol Hill on 20 January.
But at least one million people are expected to take to the streets of Washington DC for the occasion.
Most people will have to stand in the National Mall as only 30,000 seats are provided around the podium when Mr Obama takes the oath of office as the 44th President of America.
The Joint Congressional Inaugural Committee, which is responsible for the event, has cautioned people against placing orders with ticket brokers as they cannot guarantee to deliver.
"Any website or ticket broker claiming that they have inaugural tickets is simply not telling the truth," said Howard Gantman, staff director for the congressional inaugural committee.
Americans can apply to their congressman or senator for tickets but a large number are distributed to Capitol Hill staffers and others working within the government - and these are expected to end up on the black market.
Mr Obama got a taste of his future life yesterday on his trip to the White House for a meeting with President Bush. He travelled in a motorcade upgraded from campaign mode to full presidential level. There were the two identical black, heavily armoured limousines, one a decoy, a hazardous materials truck, a communications vehicle and counter-assault team in a 4x4. Mr Bush and Mr Obama spent an hour talking in the Oval Office with topics including the war in Iraq and the financial crisis.
White House spokesman Dana Perino described the sessions as "good, constructive, relaxed and friendly". Mr Obama's spokeswoman said the men engaged in "a broad discussion about the importance of working together through the transition of government.

Distribution of FMRFamide-like immunoreactive neurons in the central nervous system of the snail Helix pomatia

The distribution of FMRFamide-like immunoreactive (FLI) neurons and their morphological characteristics have been investigated in the central nervous system of the snail, Helix pomatia L. Approximately phageal ganglion complex. More than 50% of the FLI neurons were located in the cerebral ganglia. The FLI neurons could be divided into four groups according to size: (i) giant neurons (over 100 μm); (ii) large neurons (80–100 μm); (iii) medium-sized neurons (40–70 μm); (iv) small neurons (12–30 μm). They were distributed i) in groups or clusters, typical of small neurons and ii) in solitary form or in groups comprising 2–3 cells, typical of large and giant neurons. Giant and large neurons revealed only limited arborizations in the neuropil, but rich branching towards and in the peripheral nerves. Some of the small neurons had extensive arborizations of varicose fibers in the neuropil. They may therefore play some role in integratory processes. Varicose FLI fibers were visualized in the cell body layer of the different ganglia, and in the neural sheath of both the ganglia and the peripheral nerves. We propose a multifunctional involvement of FLI neurons and FMRFamide-like neuropeptides in the Helix nervous system: (i) a synaptic or modulatory role in axo-axonic interactions in the neuropil; (ii) a direct influence on neuronal cell bodies in the cortical layer, (iii) innervation of different peripheral organs; and (iv) remote neurohormonal control of peripheral events through the neural sheath.

Everything's WrongMature
I slip inside the building, gun at the ready. Cypher's covering my back. Wraith disabled the security system and removed the guards. It's all just up to me, now.
I try to remind myself to breathe. Nova's around here somewhere. All I've got to do is pull the trigger, and get out. It's easy. Too easy.
I step lightly into the lounge. The back of a balding head pokes out above a leather chair. It's Nova.
Silently, I draw my gun up. It'll take less than a second to shoot, less than a minute to leave. We could be out of here in under five.
Then I hear the helicopter.
'Get out of there!' yells Wraith through the radio. Damn. My finger twitches. It wouldn't take long...
Then I see the blood. It took me a moment to notice it because the leather on the chair is dark and shiny. But it's definitely blood.
I keep my gun at the ready, edging round the chair to face my target.
He's been dead for a while. The blood at his slashed neck is beginning to congeal. His hand is cold. He's a mess.
'Shade!' Cypher this time. 'Don't make me come in after you!'
'Everything's wrong,' I reply, talking quickly. 'Someone got here before us. Nova's dead.'
'Whatever. We can think about this later. I'm not losing a team member because he's trying to be Einstein, Shade. Get out.'
I ignore her and start walking over to the sliding glass doors out into the garden. The two German shepherds are dead. Shot.
What about Mrs Nova? Is she still here? Did they kill her too?
I run out into the garden. There's a spot of blood on the patio. Damn.
I spin round to see a woman, elegantly dressed but with blood on her once-white blouse. She looks about fifty, but seems to be aging well.
She's also holding a gun to my head.
'You killed my husband. Now you're here to kill me too.'
Cypher shoots her in the back of the head.
'Don't ever make me do that again.
