Shrimp and Pasta in a Basil Cream Sauce
Recipe by raisdbywolvz
This is a simple yet elegant pasta dish, perfect for a romantic evening. It's rich and decadent, but you deserve it.
Top Review by CHaas
I added chicken to this recipe. I used diced tomatoes and onions. I left out the pine nuts too. This recipe has an AWESOME flavor. I had trouble getting it to thicken up, so I made a little bit of a rue with flour and water and it turned out just right. The family loved it and I will definitely make it again. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us!

Ingredients Nutrition
- 14.79 ml olive oil
- 14.79 ml butter
- 59.14 ml shallot, thinly sliced (one large shallot)
- 14.79 ml garlic, minced (2-3 cloves)
- 149.68 g shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 78.07 ml grape tomatoes (2 good handfuls) or 78.07 ml cherry tomatoes (2 good handfuls)
- 14.17 g pine nuts (about a quarter of a small bag)
- 118.29 ml dry vermouth or 118.29 ml dry white wine
- 236.59 ml heavy cream
- 29.58 ml basil, sliced in a chiffinade (about 10 to 12 large leaves)
- 149.68 g pasta (I used spaghetti)
- 29.58 ml chives, chopped
- salt and pepper
Directions See How It's Made
- Start the water for the pasta. When it comes to a boil, add salt and pasta and cook until al dente.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil and butter. When butter stops foaming, add shallots and garlic, and a pinch of salt and black pepper, and saute until shallots are tender.
- Add shrimp, grape tomatoes, and pine nuts and cook until tomatoes burst.
- Remove everything from pan and keep warm.
- Return pan to heat and add vermouth. Allow to cook down for 1 minute while scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the cream, and salt and pepper to taste. I used about 20 grinds of fresh ground black pepper and a healthy pinch of kosher salt. Stir well and cook until cream reduces and thickens. Stir often during this process so your cream doesn't stick to the bottom and burn.
- To chiffinade the basil, pile the basil leaves neatly on top of each other, then roll the whole pile into a long, tight log. Cut the log into thin slices.
- When sauce reaches desired thickness, add basil to cream sauce and stir well. Cook for a minute or two to let the basil infuse the cream.
- Return shrimp and tomato mixture to pan and heat through.
- Serve over your choice of pasta. Garnish with chives and parmesan cheese, if desired, and serve with crusty bread and a nice salad on the side.
- Enjoy!

Seoul (AFP) Feb 18, 2013
LG Electronics unveiled Monday the latest version of its flagship smartphone, boasting a higher resolution screen aimed at gaining a technical edge over bigger rivals like Samsung.
The Optimus G Pro -- the newest version of the Optimus G series and the first LG smartphone offering a full high-definition (HD) screen -- will hit stores at home Wednesday, the South Korean firm said.
The new handset is powered by Android software and measures 15.2 centimetres (5.98 inches) long and 7.6 centimetres wide. It goes on sale in Japan and North America in the second quarter.
The Optimus G Pro features a 5.5-inch display that packs over 2 million pixels, or twice as many as smartphones with ordinary HD screens, offering brighter and clearer images.
Global handset makers like Taiwan's HTC and Sony of Japan have recently rolled out models boasting full HD screens -- most commonly used for TVs -- to gain an edge in the increasingly competitive smartphone market.
Samsung Electronics, the world's top maker of both smartphones and mobile handsets in general, is also expected to unveil a new full-HD version of its headline Galaxy S model.
"With smartphones getting bigger and bigger, its visual function becomes ever more important," LG said in a statement. "An ability to offer high-resolution images is paramount."
LG, the world's number two flat-screen TV producer and the fifth biggest phone maker, has struggled for years in the rapidly-growing smartphone market, with its Optimus series lagging far behind Apple's iPhone or the Galaxy S.
But heavy promotion of new models saw LG's smartphone sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 surge 56 percent from a year ago to a record 8.6 million units.

Looks like we're getting another superhero show on the CW and this time it'll be The Flash. The news was confirmed by the CW's Mark Pedowitz, along with the not so good news that the potential Wonder Woman series, Amazon, has been moved to the back burner. From Deadline:
During the CW executive session, the network's topper Mark Pedowitz gave more details about The Flash project. It will be the origin story of Barry Allen who will be introduced as a recurring character on Arrow this coming season starting in the fall. "We want to expand the DC universe of characters," he said. As for how the project came together, Pedowitz said he late last year brought up the idea to DC Entertainment president Diane Neslon who turns out had already been discussing it with WBTV's Peter Roth and producer Greg Berlanti. Pedowitz also confirmed that "Amazon is on pause (as) the script is not exactly what we wanted, and with an iconic character like Wonder Woman, we have to get it right.
So, they give and they take. We will also be getting a Flash movie, likely sometime in 2016. From The Hollywood Reporter:
Berlanti will direct and pen the screenplay alongside Chris Brancato, Michael Green, Johns and Guggenheim. Pedowitz also noted that there is no conflict with the movie studio or DC when it comes to the TV series and feature film, as previous efforts have proven troublesome when there's such an overlap.
Now the only question is, will the series be any good?

1982 house valuation
Can I get a 1982 house valuation for a 3 bed tenanted house in Portsmouth, Oliver Road, PO4 9BY?
Asked on Oct 7 2010, General in Portsmouth | Report content
Answers (1)
It may be difficult. An informal land registry idea won't be possible as data isn't available back that far so really they only way to do it is to appoint a chartered surveyor to provide you with a formal historical valuation. If you need help finding one let me know.Answered on Oct 15 2010, Report content

In the zone
Published: 01 May, 2005
Music Zone plans to expand its portfolio from 54 to 100 stores
The UK's largest independent music and film retailer, Music Zone, has been transformed into many consumers' entertainment retailer of choice over the last seven years.
And the company, which has a strong presence in north-west England, is embarking on a major expansion programme, aiming to increase its current number of stores from 54 to 100 in the next three years.
Music Zone has just been the subject of a management buyout. Founder Russ Grainger sold the company to the management team, led by managing director Steve Oliver and supported by equity backers LDC and debt facilities from Bank of Ireland.
Oliver hopes the expansion, at a rate of 15 stores every year for three years, will double sales to £150m.
One of his focuses in the last 18 months, since becoming md, has been on store formatting and merchandise display. He has increased stores' DVD display by condensing the CD racks, and like-for-like sales have risen. He has also put in more tills and formatted a queuing system so that their stores are now "smarter, faster and easier for customers to use".
"We have seen some really good like-for-like results, driven by DVDs," he says. "The market has increased in the last 12 months by 30 per cent, while our like-for-like sales are 50 per cent up, so we have out-performed the market place.
"But what's nice – and it's something the investors have looked at favourably – is that sales of CDs, despite being condensed, have increased like-for-like by two per cent." That may not sound a lot, but Music Zone is operating in a challenging market place, he adds.
Oliver is confident of the retailer's position in the entertainment market, and says that while HMV remains the market leader, Music Zone is the leading value retailer, with MVC and Virgin nestling between the two.
"We are the value offer in entertainment products," he says, adding that he sees the company eventually occupying a position where it is challenging HMV.
The business has been expanding since Oliver joined in 2000. "We have now focused on exactly the kind of store model that works for us.
"We are now after primary sites in secondary towns or secondary sites in primary towns. We are looking across the country but as our heartland is the north-west our brand will have a strong recognition there, while it's not the same education process elsewhere. We are interested in filling the missing gaps."
Oliver says the company's focus is on its core products but adds: "If the right acquisition opportunity came along at the right time, we would consider it."
From a market stall to 54 stores:
Music Zone has grown enormously, particularly in the north-west of England, over the last seven years.
Founder Russ Grainger started the business 20 years ago on a Manchester street market before opening his first shop in Stockport.
He then opened and closed branches within the region but maintained the business at around two or three stores until the late 1990s, when he started opening more units.
Store number five opened in 1998 at Manchester's Trafford Centre, and since then the company has put in place a rapid expansion programme. In 2002 alone, it opened 16 stores.
Over the last two years, Music Zone has put in a lot of work to get its infrastructure and resources right, in order to replicate the recent level of growth but in a more controlled and scientific manner.

It truly is the most wonderful time of the year here in Arizona.
The weather is so fabulous that people flock to our state from all over the country, and even Canada, just to soak up our glorious sunshine.
For Valley natives who are sick of the warm, clear days and want that snow and cold, Arizona's got that too!
That's what is so awesome about our state. The different microclimates make Arizona one of the most interesting places in the world for weather conditions.
While snow in Phoenix is rare, we often do see our surrounding mountains capped in the winter in white, which means you don't have to go far to get your fix.
As a Valley native, I remember my parents taking my brothers and me up to the high country to play in the snow. It was always such a big deal for us. Every year, we got new long-johns, coats, gloves, hats and all the winter gear that kids need since we had already outgrown what we had only worn once or twice the year before.
As we drove north on the highway, our faces lit up with excitement at the first sight of patchy snow on the ground. We begged our parents to stop right then and there so we could play in it. But they had something better in mind — a place with so much snow you could actually build a snowman, not just make a few snowballs!
After what seemed like an eternity, we finally arrived at an open field blanketed in fresh, white snow. It was the "Winter Wonderland" we sang about, far better than the dirty black, and sometimes yellow snow we saw patched on the side of the road earlier.
We played so hard and so long that we passed out in the car as soon as my dad started it up to head home (as a parent, I now know that's the goal).
These memories are so precious. I know many of you are able to tell the same stories from your childhood and are now looking to make those memories with your kids, too.
There are lots of places to choose from around our gorgeous state, but here are just a few of the best snow play areas you'll find:
• Wing Mountain. From Interstate 40, follow Highway 180 north 2.8 miles past Snowbowl Road to mile marker 226 (approximate), turn left onto Forest Service Road 222B. There is a small fee of $12 per vehicle. For more information, visit snowplayaz.com.
• Crowley Pit. From Flagstaff, head 10 miles northwest on Highway 180, turn left at the parking sign (mile post 233).
• Oak Hill. Located about 10 miles east of Williams on Historic Route 66.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Hideki Mutoh, the Indy Pro Series rookie of the year, will take Dario Franchitti's spot with Andretti Green Racing in 2008.
Franchitti, this year's Indianapolis 500 winner and the IndyCar Series champion, will drive in the NASCAR Cup series with Chip Ganassi Racing next season. He made his Busch Series debut last week with a 32nd-place finish at Memphis.
The 25-year-old Mutoh had 13 top-10 finishes in 15 starts last season in the Indy Pro Series, the IRL's developmental program. The native of Tokyo had two wins and was the series runner-up. He also made one start in the IndyCar Series, finishing eighth in the season finale at Chicago.
"We've been impressed with Hideki since the first open test of 2007 when I got a look at him in an Indy Pro Series car for the first time," AGR co-owner Michael Andretti said. "He is going to have three great teammates to lean on and that should really help his learning curve as a rookie."
His teammates at AGR are Tony Kanaan, Danica Patrick and Marco Andretti, Michael's son and the 2006 IndyCar rookie of the year.
Co-owner Kim Green said Mutoh would immediately begin a training program with the team.
"He'll be spending a lot of time at the (Indianapolis) race shop, which is great for him from a communication standpoint," Green said. "We'll then be trying to get into an in-depth rookie test schedule before the season."
The 2008 IndyCar season opener is March 29 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

text: Posted October 21, 2009 your seriously out of your mind if you think "lil Cap't" can keep up With Evans. Not many corners in the league can keep up with Evans. Evans will burn him all day, it's just a question of whether we take our shots down the field with him IMHO. But not puttinmg Gamble on him will be an epic fail by your team. Remember that young buck. Epic fail? Capt is a great man to man corner, but you wouldn't know because you probably don't watch any of the games he played in. Yea Gamble is alot better, but I would keep him on T.O simply because he always locks him down. I'm not going to talk smack about your corners, because quite frankly, I don't even know any of their names, nor do I care to. That's how good they are.

Entertaining a group of small children is no simple task, especially if some of the children are energetic or precocious. One solution is to provide them with a few whimsical, hands-on crafts that are both creative and easily accomplished. For example, you can show children how to make a noodle car from differently shaped pasta pieces and craft glue. Once finished, they can customize the noodle car by painting it with washable tempera paints.
Things You'll Need
- Large tube pasta
- Wheel pasta
- Bow tie pasta
- Craft glue
- Tempera paint
- Paintbrush
Place a large pasta tube horizontally on a flat surface, such as a table or counter top.

Dancesport Examinations in Mumbai, India
Step Up Academy
In 2014, we not only had students appearing for Latin and ballroom but also students for DFR Exams. The great new thing was that ISTD DFR examinations were conducted for the first time in India. We are encouraging more students to appear for ISTD Exams in 2015.
A momentous and very enjoyable examination day began on 7th December 2014 with enthusiast ISTD examiner Ms Jill Bush. She made me feel at ease with her lovely smile. Ms Bush made it a memorable experience for my students and me, and encouraged them to perform to the best of their ability.
The examinations had grown to two full days. Four students took the Bronze Medal exams and two students appeared for Silver Medal exams as well as almost 80 Social and Pre-Bronze exams. Also, Ms Bush examined our three students for Student Teacher examinations. All my students enjoyed their stress-free experience with Ms Bush. Thank you, Ms Bush, for a great time and it was a wonderful experience to work with you! Also, we would like to thank Ms Tania Trosini for her constant support and timely feedback for smooth functioning throughout.

I would like to share a picture taken when the Latin American exams were held at our school in Mumbai in December 2014. We had a lovely exam session on Friday 5th and Saturday 6th December at the Malabar Hill club with Ms Jill Bush.

Showcase of 2014 ISTD Malaysian Examinations Successes
Our achievement was undoubtedly due to the great work and foundation initiated by the many ISTD senior examiners who have graciously given their time and effort to be with us year after year. They will be very proud to know that 2014 topped the exams list with over 500 candidates. A good combination of Amateur Dance Tests of various age groups, grades and professional examinations from student teacher to Fellowship. In 2014 we witnessed a substantial growth in DFR. This was proven by the increased entries in the Medallists Festival on the final day – an awesome day supported by doting parents and enjoyed by all. The Malaysian ISTD teachers were proud to showcase their students' successes in the October 2014 ISTD examinations conducted by the visiting examiner Ms Margaret Connon.
January Street Dance Weekend in Bergamo, Italy
I was recently sent to Bergamo in Italy for a two-day course on essential learning for Associate level in street dance. The course was well attended and participants came from far and wide. Most of these had attended the previous one day presentation course that I ran in September 2014. Most of them were ISTD theatre qualified, holding at least a DDE. Others were unqualified teachers with considerable prior street dance experience and training. On the first day the main focus, after introducing the teachers to street dance within the ISTD, dancesport and DFR Faculty in particular, was on demonstrating and teaching all of the funk style steps within the glossary. This was accompanied with music examples, history and relevant origins of these styles. The energy was very positive and enthusiastic and left me inspired. The second day focused on essential learning for Associate level based on the syllabus outline. More time was spent going through the glossary to include the commercial styles. We then briefly recapped the funk styles steps from the day before. I taught two contrasting routines, urban and jazz funk, these were received very well. We went through the amateur syllabus, spoke about levels and observed audiovisual demonstrations of students working at various levels including Social Dance Tests, Bronze, Silver and Gold, again in varying styles of street dance. The importance of freestyle and appropriate teaching methods were discussed at length with the teachers joining in a universal freestyle. The remaining styles and histories were also discussed. Finally, the teachers were adequately cooled down and there was time for questions at the end. For their own confidence and working knowledge I absolutely advised their taking the Associate examination. To conclude, the course itself went very well and I felt was received with enthusiasm from teachers eager to learn and hungry for the work. I extend a big thank you to Miss Teresa Hall for her superb and very intensive translating skills.
Samantha Vale
Carolyn and Elizabeth Burnett:
What an amazing weekend! So much inspiration from Samantha Vale in the teaching course in hip hop and street dance, in Bergamo, Italy. Samantha's enthusiasm, hard work and expansive knowledge had a profound impact on all of us. So much energy, fun and a real insight in the world of street dance. Two days of full immersion, not only in dance, but also in the culture and history. Our sincere thanks to Teresa Hall for her precise translations, which is hard work in itself. And a very fond thank you to Samantha Vale. We're already looking forward to the next time!
Italian: Un weekend incredibile. Così tanta ispirazione da Samantha Vale durante il corso per insegnanti in hip hopand street dance organizzato a Bergamo, Italia. L'entusiasmo di Samantha insieme al duro lavoro e la sua conoscenza approfondita ha avuto un impatto su tutti noi. Così tanta energia .... Un vero e proprio viaggio nel mondo di street dance. Due giorni pieni non solo di danza ma anche della sua storia e la sua cultura. Ringraziamo anche Teresa che ha tradotto in modo impeccabile per tutto il weekend, e un grazie di cuore a Samantha Vale ... Non vediamo l'ora di rivederla al più presto!
Katia Camarda:
I am very happy to have participated at the street dance course. It was very satisfying in both the format and the theory, both of which the lecturer was excellent at teaching.
I would like to get a more in-depth look at the teaching aspects especially for children. Thank you.
Italian: Sono molto contenta di aver partecipato al corso di street dance. È stato soddisfacente dal punto di vista formativo e la docente è davvero brava ad esprimere tutti gli aspetti del lavoro sia nella teoria che nella pratica, mi piacerebbe approfondire la parte didattica soprattutto per le basse fasce d'età. Grazie.
Ilaria Fontana:
I had the pleasure of participating at both the presentation day in September and the Associate course for two days in January. I personally found the course very interesting. It resolved some of my doubts, which had arisen from thecourse in September and I also learnt and understood the steps from the glossary. Samantha Vale, lecturer and member of the creative team, was very willing to answer all our questions and help us where needed.
Italian: Ho avuto il piacere di partecipare sia all'incontro di presentazione svoltosi a settembre e sia al corso di due giorni del 17/18 gennaio. Personalmente ho trovato il corso interessante.

DDI and DDE Tutor Training Course for Generic Teaching Skills, Bologna, Italy
Arriving at the Hotel Corona D'Oro in the centre of Bologna, we all received a warm welcome from the hotel staff. The first morning was bright and sunny and I took the opportunity to go for an early morning walk to explore the beautiful medieval city centre before embarking on a very busy two days of tutor training. The course was held in a conference room at the hotel, and we were also able to enjoy lunches together in the hotel each day, which gave everyone the opportunity to catch up on news with old and new friends alike. Tutors had travelled from all over Italy and Malta, and during the course I had the assistance of bilingual tutors to ensure that everyone could understand the recent changes to the DDI and DDE paperwork. We had valuable discussions on the revisions to the DDE Final Teaching Assessment and it was good to see all the tutors working together in groups to share their knowledge and help each other throughout. At the end of the course I think we all left feeling a little tired but that the weekend had been enjoyable and productive. Thanks must go to Tania Trosini for organising the course in such beautiful surroundings, and to Christina Orsi and all her staff at the hotel who were so helpful throughout.
Jill Knight
Shirley-Anne Osborne:
The DDI/DDE Tutor Training course for Generic Teaching Skills was held in Bologna on Saturday and Sunday, 31stJanuary and 1st February 2015.Bologna was a very good choice as a location, as it is reasonably accessible, both by train and plane. This was reflected in the attendance with tutors travelling from as far as Bergamo in the north, to Bari in the south and also Malta. The Hotel Corona D'Oro, where the course was held, offered very good conference and catering facilities as well as being very centrally located in the town centre, just a 20 minute walk from the station. Jill Knight came out to Italy to lecture for the course and quite frankly, was marvellous, creating a friendly atmosphere for study, where everyone felt free to ask questions if needed. There was an enormous quantity of work to cover in the two days because not only were the principles of tutoring covered for new and old tutors alike, but all the changes in the paperwork and examinations procedures were explained in detail. Jill Knight was very clear and precise in her explanations, giving practical examples with the use of visual aids, DVDs and exercises for practical application of the theory in order to make sure we all understood. Many thanks to all the organisers of the course for making this such a pleasant experience, but most of all thank you to Jill Knight for teaching us all with total professionalism, dedication and friendliness.
Italian: Il corso "Tutor Training for Generic Teaching Skills" si è tenuto a Bologna , sabato 31 gennaio e domenica 1° febbraio 2015.Bologna si è dimostrata essere un'ottima scelta per il corso, perché facilmente raggiungibile, sia in treno che in aereo. A dimostrarlo il fatto che vi hanno partecipato tutors da tutta Italia, da Bergamo fino a Bari, e anche da Malta. L'Hotel Corona D'Oro, convenientemente situato nel centro della città a soli venti minuti a piedi dalla stazione centrale, ha offerto un ottimo servizio sia nella sala conferenza che nel catering. Jill Knight è stata semplicemente meravigliosa nel tenere il corso e ha creato un'atmosfera di studio amichevole,in cui tutti ci siamo sentiti liberi di fare domande se necessario. La mole di lavoro da coprire in due giorni è stata considerevole, perché non solo abbiamo studiato i principi di tutoring per il DDI e DDE sia per i nuovi tutors che per quelli già collaudati, ma abbiamo anche esaminato in modo dettagliato tutti i cambiamenti nella modulistica e nelle procedure per gli esami. Jill Knight ha dato spiegazioni in modo molto chiaro e preciso e si è servita di materiale audiovisivo per aiutarci nella comprensione attraverlo un'applicazione pratica della teoria. Grazie mille all'ISTD per l'organizzazione del corso e per aver reso questa esperienza così piacevole, e un rigraziamento particolare a Jill Knight per la profonda professionalità e dedizione con cui ha condotto il corso.

text: Ninth the mediaeval Szeged castle church's exploration, which turned up in the course of the reconstruction of the castle residue, is going on eaten. In the church interior in the course of the exploration of the mediaeval graves already too they are on the seven hundredth grave. The work especially considerable, since a mediaeval cemetery of this size was not excavated yet on a national level in downtown. A distinguished Cumanian noble woman's grave, from which a signet ring and costume jewelleries turned up, was found recently. From a whacking cemetery with a grave number may be at least ten thousand dead persons lie here according to a word, estimates, since continuous burial was going on here until the 18. century entirely because of the end of the 13. century.


text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Apple ( AAPL) shares are falling Wednesday, a day after unveiling the iPhone 5C and 5S.Ben Bajarin, director of consumer technology at Creative Strategies, told TheStreet's Debra Borchardt he is most excited about the new fingerprint technology and the new 64-bit architecture. The fingerprint scanning capabilities will address security issues and is a feature that can be used right from the get-go. He added the the 64-bit system, which was previously a 32-bit, is a tremendous technological upgrade that will likely be used more in the future, as developers start to take advantage of it and more robust hardware surfaces. Bajarin also said that it was interesting to see the iPhone 5C price higher than many had originally expected. However, Apple doesn't fight for the lowest prices in the market and carriers could still subsidize the product, particularly in China and Europe. He said it's worth noting that the iPhone 5C will be available in the U.S. starting at a subsidized price of $99. The tech giant also made a slew of productivity apps available for free to the consumer, something that could hurt Microsoft ( MSFT). He concluded that while businesses still very much rely on Microsoft Office, Apple could draw in new consumers to its iCloud service and ecosystem with the free access to iWork and iLife apps. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich.

Lightning beat Canadiens as both teams clinch playoff spotApr 2, 2014 - 4:08 AM Tampa, FL (SportsNetwork.com) - Tyler Johnson's shorthanded goal in the third period helped Tampa Bay clinch a playoff spot as the Lightning defeated the Montreal Canadiens, 3-1.
With the win, the Lightning secured a spot in the playoffs for the first time in three seasons, and moved into the second spot in the Atlantic Division with 93 points. Montreal also has 93 points, but Tampa has a game in hand.
"The feeling you have before the game to right now, it really feels like all the games we've played bottled up into one," said Tampa Bay head coach Jon Cooper. "I'm excited for what's happening to be honest; it's a really cool feeling."
Despite the loss, the Canadiens also clinched a spot for a second straight season as the Devils and Capitals both lost on Tuesday.
Ryan Callahan and Alex Killorn also scored while Ben Bishop made 25 stops for the Lightning, who have won three of their last four.
Brendan Gallagher had the only goal of the game for the Canadiens, who had a five-game winning streak stopped. Carey Price allowed two goals on 32 shots.
"We missed a chance to create some space in the standings," said Price. "I think we matched up pretty well with those guys and we tend to bring out the best in each other. That's a good team over there."
With the score tied in the third and Tampa facing a shorthanded situation, the puck came out of the zone and Johnson caught up to it in neutral zone. Cutting down the right wing to the front of the net, he lifted in a backhand for a 2-1 lead at 12:41.
Montreal didn't help itself down the stretch, as the team took several penalties.
Included in that was a match penalty to defenseman Douglas Murray, who caught Tampa defenseman Michael Kostka in the head with an elbow. Kostka hit his head on the ice and a stretcher was brought out, but he wound up skating off the ice under his own power.
Killorn sealed the win with an empty-netter power-play goal inside the final minute.
Montreal scored halfway through the first period after Gallagher backhanded home a rebound for his 19th goal of the season.
The score stayed that way until 9:19 of the second as the Lightning notched a power-play goal thanks to Callahan's backhander off a rush down the left wing.

One of Colorado's most intriguing 2012 prospects is Aurora Grandview DB/WR Tanner Gentry. Standing 6-3 and running in the 4.5s, Gentry, who is equally adept on both sides of the ball, holds two offers and is gaining increasing recruiting interest.
As of now Gentry holds offers from Wyoming and Air Force and he is getting increasing contact from Arizona State and Colorado. In an attempt to gain offers from the Sun Devils and Buffs Gentry will camp with both squads. Regarding ASU and CU and potential offers Gentry Says, "They want me to come to camp and show my skills. They said if I do what they know I can do there is a good chance I will get an offer." Gentry, who was one of Colorado's leaders in interception last year, says Colorado would like him to play receiver while Arizona State wants him to work out at safety and receiver. Also part of Gentry's travels is the all Polynesian camp in Utah.
Currently Gentry lists Wyoming, Arizona State and Colorado as the teams he has the most interest in.
Grandview, a power in Colorado 5A football, returns a strong set of skill players headed by Gentry. Quarterback Reese Weber is having a strong offseason, while running back Isaiah Jackson is one of Colorado's better backs.

Early life[edit]
Gessen was born into an Ashkenazi Jewish family in Moscow to Alexander and Yelena Gessen.[2] In 1981, when Gessen was a teenager, she and her family moved to the United States.[7] As an adult in 1991, she moved to Moscow, where she worked as a journalist.[7] Gessen holds both Russian and US citizenship. Her brothers are Keith Gessen, Daniel Gessen and Philip Gessen.[8]
Activism and journalism[edit]
Gessen served as a member of the board of directors for the Moscow-based LGBT rights organization "Triangle" from 1993 to 1998.[9]
In an extensive October 2008 profile of Vladimir Putin for Vanity Fair, Gessen reported that the young Putin had been "an aspiring thug" and that "the backward evolution of Russia began" within days after his inauguration in 2000.[10]
She contributed several dozen commentaries on Russia to The New York Times blog "Latitude" between November 2011 and December 2013. Among her subjects were the banning of so-called "homosexual propaganda" and other related laws, the harassment and beating of journalists, the depreciation in value of the ruble, and other relative issues.[11]
In March 2013, politician Vitaly Milonov, who promoted the Russian law against foreign adoption of Russian children, championed the law by saying: "The Americans want to adopt Russian children and bring them up in perverted families like Masha Gessen's."[12]
Dismissal from Vokrug Sveta[edit]
She was dismissed from her position as the chief editor of Russia's oldest magazine, Vokrug sveta, a popular-science journal, in September 2012 after she refused to send a reporter to cover a Russian Geographical Society event about nature conservation featuring President Putin, because she considered it political exploitation of environmental concerns.[13][14] After she tweeted about her firing, Putin phoned her and claimed he was serious about his "nature conservation efforts." On his invitation, she met him, and her former publisher, at the Kremlin and was offered her job back. She rejected the offer.[15][16]
Radio Liberty[edit]
In September 2012, Gessen was appointed as director of the Russian Service for Radio Liberty, a U.S. government-funded broadcaster based in Prague.[17][18] Shortly after her appointment was announced and a few days after Gessen met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, more than 40 members of Radio Liberty's staff were fired. Radio Liberty also lost its Russian broadcasting licence several weeks after Gessen took over. Gessen's role in both of these events is unclear but has caused controversy.[18] John O'Sullivan described Gessen in The Wall Street Journal as someone who "disdains" opposition media and had replaced Putin-critical content with "softer news features in which liberty is likely to mean sexual liberation (with illustrations) rather than 'political' aspects of human rights."[19] Judy Bachrach in the journal World Affairs depicted Gessen as seeking to replace controversial news stories that reported on criticism of Putin with innocuous reports on "polar bears" and "kindergartens" and "Russian marriage and funeral traditions."[20]
Replying to these critics in Forbes, Mark Adomanis found it "thoroughly bizarre" that "Masha Gessen, one of Russia's most outspoken and consistently anti-Putin journalists, has been dragged through the mud and been darkly portrayed as some sort of surrogate Kremlin operative." While stating that he agreed with Gessen "on almost nothing," Adomanis said "it is glaringly, blindingly obvious to anyone even passingly familiar with her work that she is not some sort of sycophantic Kremlin suck-up, but is instead an active and vocal member of the opposition that, according to O'Sullivan, she supposedly 'disdains.'" Suggesting that O'Sullivan "doesn't actually have the faintest idea who Masha Gessen is, because the entirety of her oeuvre bears almost no resemblance whatsoever to his description of it," Adomanis concluded that "it is absurd, and remarkably tasteless, to portray one of Russia's bravest and most outspoken voices of political opposition as a soulless apparatchik...Although I often disagree with her conclusions, Gessen has always struck me as someone of remarkable moral consistency and impeccable honesty." O'Sullivan replied to Adomanis's article by maintaining that he had nowhere asserted Gessen as a Kremlin stooge and that he was, rather, "inclined to think...that Ms. Gessen is herself a victim of the current Radio Liberty crisis, not as much a victim as the 41 RL people now out of work, but a victim nonetheless." [21]
Return to U.S.[edit]
In December 2013, she moved to New York because Russian authorities had begun to talk about taking children away from gay parents.[22] In March, "the St Petersburg legislator [Milonov] who had become a spokesman for the law [against 'homosexual propaganda' towards children] started mentioning me and my 'perverted family' in his interviews," and Gessen contacted an adoption lawyer asking "whether I had reason to worry that social services would go after my family and attempt to remove my oldest son, whom I adopted in 2000." The lawyer told Gessen "to instruct my son to run if he is approached by strangers and concluding: 'The answer to your question is at the airport.'" In June 2013, Gessen was beaten up outside of the Parliament "and I realised that in all my interactions, including professional ones, I no longer felt I was perceived as a journalist first: I am now a person with a pink triangle." She stated that "a court would easily decide to annul Vova's adoption, and I wouldn't even know it." Given this potential threat to her family, Gessen "felt like no risk was small enough to be acceptable," she later told the CBC. "So we just had to get out."[23]
In a January 2014 interview with ABC News, Gessen said that the Russian gay propaganda law had "led to a huge increase in antigay violence, including murders. It's led to attacks on gay and lesbian clubs and film festivals...and because these laws are passed supposedly to protect children, the people who are most targeted or have the most to fear are LGBT parents."[24]
She wrote in February 2014 that Citibank had closed her bank account because of concern about Russian money-laundering operations. "Like other kinds of ethnic profiling," she complained, "these policies of weeding out Russian-Americans who have money are hardly efficient. Russians who launder money don't do it by transferring large amounts between personal accounts opened in the same name and in plain view of all the relevant authorities. They channel the money through businesses registered in offshore zones, usually under names culled from pop songs or romantic comedies."[25]
Gessen argued in a February 2014 article for Slate that the international, and especially American, LGBT movement had failed gay Russians at the Sochi Olympics. "The Sochi Games were the U.S. gay rights movement's first real attempt to venture into international work," she wrote. "It was an embarrassment. If U.S. groups continue to do nothing but stage fundraisers and strategy sessions, it will be a disgrace."[26]
In a March 2014 article for the Los Angeles Times, Gessen described Putin as "a playground bully." While other world leaders "have generally tried to convince themselves and others that they were good people fighting the good fight," argued Gessen, Putin "has no positive spin for his aggression — or his actions in general," having created a political culture in Russia "based on the assumption that the world is rotten to the core," and "that all governments would like to jail their opponents and invade their neighbors, but most political leaders, most of the time, lack the courage to act on these desires." Gessen suggested that "For American culture, which relies heavily on a belief in the fundamental goodness of humanity," Putin's world view is "impossible...to absorb. It is another world indeed."[27]
In March 2014, Gessen wrote in the Washington Post that Putin's popularity had been restored thanks to the Sochi Olympics and invasion of Ukraine, which had played on the longstanding notion "that Russia is a country under siege, surrounded by enemies and constantly on the brink of catastrophe." She added that "the only way to continue shoring up his popularity is to escalate war rhetoric and the war effort," to paint "the Western/fascist/Ukrainian enemy as ever more dangerous and the Russian invasion of Ukraine as ever more important. This means he is not interested in a peaceful solution or, as some Western analysts have hopefully suggested, in an exit strategy that would allow him to 'save face.'"[28]
In March 2014, Gessen wrote an op-ed piece in the Washington Post on Putin's speech to the Duma[29] in which she expressed concern that "Russia is remaking itself as the leader of the anti-Western world". Gessen stated that when Putin "says he is protecting ethnic Russians in Ukraine, he means he is protecting them from the many terrible things that come from the West," notably gay rights. In the view of Russians, argued Gessen, the West "is literally taking over, and only Russian troops" can protect Ukraine from "the homosexuals marching in from Brussels."[30]
The New York Times published a piece by Gessen on 28 April 2014, about two gay Russian journalists who had been allegedly framed on drug charges and fled to the U.S.[31]
Preceding and following the U.S. 2016 election, Gessen wrote a series of articles about Donald Trump.[4][32][33][34] On 10 November 2016, her widely read article "Autocracy: Rules for Survival" was published in The New York Review of Books. In the article, she wrote, "Trump is the first candidate in memory who ran not for president but for autocrat—and won."[4] She has also criticized claims that Trump is an agent of Vladimir Putin.[34][32]
Media appearances[edit]
Gessen has given talks around the Western world and has appeared on Skavlan (Sweden), PBS News Hour, MSNBC, and the Australian comedy news program Mad as Hell. She spoke at the Council on Foreign Relations in 2012.[35] In the same year, she spoke at the Personal Democracy Forum in New York.[36] She was interviewed in the 2014 documentary film, Campaign of Hate: Russia and Gay Propaganda.[37] In 2016 and 2017, She was interviewed for the news satire program Full Frontal with Samantha Bee.[38]
Gessen spoke at the Oslo Freedom Forum in May 2014.[39]
Personal life[edit]
Gessen married Svetlana Generalova, a Russian citizen who was also involved in the LGBT movement in Moscow, in 2004. The wedding took place in the U.S.[9][40] By the time Gessen returned to the U.S. from Russia in December 2013, she was married to Darya Oreshkina.[41][42]
Gessen has three children: two sons and a daughter. Her eldest son, Vova, was born in 1997 in Russia and was adopted by Gessen from an orphanage in Kaliningrad for the children of HIV-positive women. Her daughter, Yolka, was born to Gessen in the U.S. in 2001. Her third child, a son, was born in February 2012.

Summaries of select works[edit]
The Man Without a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin[edit]
In The Man Without a Face, Gessen offers an account of Putin's rise to power and summary of recent Russian politics. The book was published on 1 March 2012 and translated into 20 languages.[46]
The New York Review of Books described the book as written in "beautifully clear and eloquent English," and stated that it was "at heart a description of th[e] secret police milieu" from which Putin originated and was "also very good at evoking…the culture and atmosphere within which [Putin] was raised, and the values he came to espouse."[47] The Guardian called the book "luminous";[48] the Telegraph called it "courageous".[49]
Words Will Break Cement: The Passion of Pussy Riot[edit]
A.D. Miller wrote in the Telegraph that "even readers who do not share Gessen's esteem for Pussy Riot as artists will be convinced of their courage." Miller described Gessen as "the right person to tell this story" and said her journalistic approach was "scrupulous and sensitive".[50] Booklist described the book as "prickly, frank, precise, and sharply witty."[51] The New York Times called it "urgent" and "damning."[52] The Washington Post called the book an "excellent" portrait of Pussy Riot and said that "Gessen gives a particularly brilliant account of their trials."[53] The Los Angeles Times said that Gessen was "Not just a keen observer of these events" but "also an impassioned partisan."[54]
The Brothers: The Road to an American Tragedy[edit]
Published in April 2015 by Riverhead, The Brothers investigates the background of the Tsarnaev brothers, the perpetrators of the Boston Marathon bombings.[55]

April is National Stress Awareness Month. Now whether you have been waiting for a good excuse to start your meditation practice or just needed a little extra push, hopefully this post will help give you just the right amount of inspiration to begin your practice.
Rachael Grant Dixon in this latest Rancho Bernardo Patch article introduces us to meditation as a stress reducing technique. According to Dixon, although we live in a face paced world, ironically, most of us turn to technology to help de-stress our lives. Unfortunately in doing so, many of us find our lives even more complicated.
Dixon offers three convincing positive arguments to lay down those Blackberrys and iPhones and pick up a meditation practice.
Yogis and meditation experts will tell you that meditation helps your overall view of life and health in several ways. First, meditation can help you learn to control your thoughts and turn negative thoughts into positive thoughts through visualizing the good in various situations.
Second, meditation can help you control your mind chatter, which is the constant replay of events or situations in your head. Mind chatter can disrupt our sleep and keep us reliving painful or hurtful situations. Through meditation, we can quiet the mind chatter and get back peace.
Third, meditation can connect or reconnect us with our spirituality. Remember, spirituality doesn't necessarily mean religion, although it can. Spirituality is defined as a personal process in which individuals seek to develop their moral philosophies and find purpose in their lives. Meditation allows us the opportunity to connect with our personal moral compass and gives us the chance to visualize where we want to go with our life.
Read more from Dixon on using meditation to de-stress your life here.

Here's the Deal
Slant is written by a community helping you be informed. Tell us what you're passionate about to get an awesome personalized feed.
#1 Git
A distributed version control system with an emphasis on speed, data integrity, and support for cheap, non-linear branching.
Pro Fast
With Git, nearly all operations are performed locally, giving it a huge speed advantage over centralized systems that constantly have to communicate with a remote server. In addition, Git uses delta encoding to only transmit the changed pieces of files across the network, saving time in large repo...
Pro Decentralized
Doesn't require access to a central repository, because each checkout is a full repository by itself.
Con Commands too close to implementation details and strange documentation
Git really suffers from the lack of abstraction made during its conception. Just as a proof, a generator of git-like man pages has been created to celebrate that weirdness: https://git-man-page-generator.lokaltog.net/#7936172c3a80dc263651aaafebcb13d3 That said, the documentation is getting better...
Con Steep learning curve
The large number of commands and functions that Git provides can be discouraging for beginners. Learning how Git works can be a difficult concept to grasp at first.
Con Submodules (linking repositories to one another) are a mess
Submodules are very difficult to work with effectively, and are limited to including an entire repository.
#2 Mercurial
Mecurial is an open-source version control application. It's free and written in Python.
Pro Easy to use
Mercurial is a more intuitive option than many of its competitors. The documentation is well organized and easy for beginners to read & understand.
#3 Fossil
Fossil goes beyond revision control and adds some basic source control management (distributed bug tracking, wiki, blog). It is transactional and aimed at ease of use. It was cre...
#4 Vault
SourceGear Vault is a version control and bug tracking solution for professional development teams. Vault is based on a client / server architecture using technologies such as Mi...
Pro Fully integrated work item tracking
For users needing more than source control, Vault Professional offers fully integrated work item tracking in a powerful, yet easy to use interface.
Pro Mature product
Fast, easy, and relatively bug free. Caching add-on ensures rapid check-ins & check-outs anywhere in the world.
Pro Great for document version control
Easy tree interface. Can train novices in 5-10 minutes.
#6 Darcs
Darcs is a free and open source, cross-platform version control system, focusing on patches instead of snapshots.
#7 Bazaar
A friendly powerful distributed version control system
Pro Full support for renaming
Renaming of a file is fully supported, not a hack like removing a file and adding back under another name...
Con Slow developement
Bazaar tends to have a slow update cycle with Canonical. Version 2.6 was released in August 2013 and branch 2.7 was not finished until Feb. 2016.
Pro Clear and simple operation
It has linear history, central repository and management. Lacks too complex features, almost every developer is familiar with it, so everyone knows what to expect and how to work with it.
Con Branches are hell. Conflicts are hell.
Svn is hard to use on multi-topics workflows. Branches exist but are often not used because of the fear of the merge hell. Also, conflicts are a big deal and happen on the server; it feels like you only have one try and no way to abort/retry your conflict.
Con Underlying model is totally flawed

Dr Jon Heron (course organiser) and others.
This course provides an introduction to methods for analysing longitudinal/repeated continuous data, with a focus on methods for analysing individual trajectories over time. Multilevel modelling and structural equation modelling (SEM) approaches will be described and compared. Throughout the course there will be an emphasis on what kinds of research question different types of method can be used to explore and on the interpretation of results.
By the end of the course participants should be able to:
The course is intended for researchers who are, or will be, involved in analysing longitudinal data. Participants should be familiar with the algebra of standard regression models for continuous outcomes (to beyond the standard of the short course 'Introduction to Linear and Logistic Regression Models', or to the level implied by module 3 of the Centre for Multilevel Modelling's online multilevel modelling course.
Please note: This is an advanced-level course, which will introduce MLM and SEM models, plus practicals using two different software packages (Stata and Mplus), in three days. Please be aware that whilst we assume no previous experience of Mplus, this course may prove challenging for those who are not fairly fluent in Stata.
Please note: Practical sessions of this course will be held in a computer lab, so you will not need to bring a laptop. The course will use Stata and Mplus.
Please note bookings for this course have now closed.
We are currently compiling our 2017/18 course programme. Bookings will open at the beginning of October 2017. Please check back nearer the time for more details.
The course material was comprehensive, well organised and made it easy to keep working on what I learned from the course.
