Big win for SARFC women
Undefeated rugby team is poised for promotion into the first division ranks after defeating the Druids in the Edmonton Rugby Union's seeding round
Saturday, May 31, 2014 06:00 am
The women�s team at the St. Albert Rugby Football Club is a step closer to moving up into the Alberta first division ranks after extending its winning streak to four matches to kick off the season.
The top two finishers in the Edmonton Rugby Union�s spring league seeding round will play a home and away series with two Calgary first division teams starting in July.
SARFC joined the Lep/Tigers at the top of the nine-team ERU table at 4-0 after digging deep to beat the Strathcona Druids 12-10 in the rain Wednesday night at Lynn Davies fields in Sherwood Park.
SARFC hung tough in the second half after scoring all their points in the second quarter to lead 12-5 at the break.
�Everyone is working for each other to achieve the same goal, which is to win at the end of the game,� said head coach Byron Elliott. �As we move forward as a group we grow in the confidence of the skill and ability through the squad, but being in the fight allows them to realize that it really is a squad effort.�
At the beginning of the second quarter Helen Jones scored off a scrum and captain Katie Davis converted the try.
Sabrina Kelly ran in the second try.
�The girls opened up the game right from where we left off against Grande Prairie (four tries in the fourth quarter in last Saturday�s 47-22 blowout at Alpine field) by camping down in the opposition third. They played patient rugby and at one count stringing nine phases together, which is huge, � Elliott said. �The only thing preventing us from racking up a bigger score was the slippery conditions as it made handling the ball difficult.�
SARFC buckled down to hold the Druids (1-2) to only a try in the second half.
�The Druids made some changes to their lineup and began throwing everything and the kitchen sink at us. That being said we showed great character soaking up the pressure and getting turnovers at crucial times in their attacking play, either coming from relentless pressure in our defensive line speed or great work at the breakdown,� Elliott said.
The fourth quarter brought out the very best from a determined SARFC side.
�With so many scrums due to handling errors and soaking up wave after wave of attack the forwards were getting tired, but yet they found extra resolve, even after losing hooker Danica Dreger to a broken fibula,� Elliott said. �This frustrated the Druids as they kept making penalty after penalty and Katie used her experience to kick them back down field and run down the clock holding onto a two-point lead.�
The next SARFC match is Wednesday versus the Pirates (1-2) at 7 p.m. at the Pirates Rugby Club.
Rugby Canada update
Team Canada prop Andy Tiedemann of St. Albert and SARFC premier men Kyle Gilmour and Duncan Maguire are playing in the Canada Selects versus B.C. Invitational match today at Klahanie Park in Vancouver.
Both sides feature star-studded lineups with the return of Canada�s overseas professionals and top domestic-based players.
The first 15 for B.C. Invitational includes Tiedemann and Gilmour at flanker. Gilmour is coming off a monstrous performance for SARFC in last Saturday�s 24-23 thriller against the Calgary Hornets to halt an eight-game losing streak to the defending Labatt�s Cup provincial champions.
Maguire, fresh off his impressive run with the Team Canada sevens in the last leg of the IRB Sevens World Series at Glasgow, Scotland and London, England is listed as a reserve among the backs on the Canada Selects� 23-man roster.
Tiedemann, Gilmour and Maguire are members of the Calgary-based Prairie Wolfpack in the Canadian Rugby Championship league.
Today�s head-to-head competition of Canada�s best players will serve as the team selection for next Saturday�s international test match against Japan in Burnaby. It�s part of the 2014 Pacific Nations Cup, with Canada also scheduled to scrum down against the U.S.A. Eagles on June 21 in Sacramento, California.
Canada will also line up against Scotland on June 14 in Toronto.
High school rugby
Heavy rain forced the postponement of Thursday�s metro Edmonton high school division two women�s rugby championship between the Paul Kane Blues and Harry Ainlay Titans at Ellerslie Rugby Park.
It�s been rescheduled for Tuesday at 4:45 p.m. at Ellerslie.
The Blues are 4-1 and their only loss was 24-19 against Ainlay (5-0) in pool A action May 5.
The last metro rugby championship for the lady Blues was 2008 in the premier (now division one) conference.

ASK a regular touring musician about any hopes they harbour for an imminent Australian tour, and you might get some anodyne answer about ''koalas and kangaroos''.
Ask Lemonheads leader Evan Dando - so frequent a visitor and familiar of face as to be an honorary local - and you get something far more specific. ''Looking up at the stars that are different from here,'' he says. ''Going to eat good food in Melbourne. Hopefully going down to Anglesea or Port Campbell. Maybe going out and seeing the Great Barrier Reef.''
Dando's latest visit to Australia - even he has ''no idea'' how many times he's been here - comes alongside Juliana Hatfield.
It's a familiar co-billing for fans of '90s indie rock, the pair of Boston natives being long-time friends, one-time housemates and semi-constant collaborators over the past quarter of a century.
The tour will have them playing songs drawn from across their back catalogues; even dipping into Hatfield's days in the Blake Babies in the '80s. ''We just each threw a bunch of songs into a hat, started to sing them together and saw what worked nicely as a duet,'' Hatfield says. ''I'm hoping that we can take some of the old songs and make them fresh, mix them up with a bunch of new songs, so that it won't be just a nostalgia trip. And it's not just that. We're still singing and playing them now, we're still both making music now.''
In a quirk of coincidence, the most recent LP for each is a covers set. Hatfield's just-released self-titled album follows the 2009 Lemonheads record, Varshons. Hatfield may have just indulged in the standard trope of the covers album (''Everyone does it eventually,'' Hatfield shrugs), but she's managed to avoid a tour playing an old album in order. ''Congratulations, Jules, that's a hard thing to avoid,'' Dando jokes.
He speaks, of course, from experience. The last Lemonheads tour of Australia, in 2010, found Dando playing his 1992 LP It's a Shame about Ray, an album partly written in Melbourne and on which Hatfield played bass. Playing the record in order is something Dando has been doing since 2005. ''It's become this burden to wear, the curse of the classic album,'' he sighs. ''There are moments when, if you're playing one of those shows, you can feel stuck, like it's a day job at night. But I'm still a sucker for a lot of those old songs.''
That audiences are infinitely more interested in the old songs than anything new, Dando admits, is ''not the easiest thing in the world to swallow''. But a part of him takes a genuine - if slightly perverse - happiness in this. ''There was always this part of me that wanted to be that old guy, 20 years past his prime, still playing the old songs. And now look at me - I made it!''
Evan Dando and Juliana Hatfield play the Corner, Richmond, on December 18 and 19 with support from Bambino Koresh.

Virgin Blue Voted One Of Asia-Pacificâs Top Brands05/02/2004
Virgin Blue rose to 7th place in the Brandchannel.com 2003 Brand of the Year Awards - Asia-Pacific region* ahead of major international brands including Honda, Qantas and Cathay Pacific.
In a reader's choice survey that spanned more than 85 countries, over 1200 marketers judged the low fare airline to be one of the top 10 brands that had the greatest impact in 2003.
The airline was previously ranked 9th and 10th respectively in the 2001 and 2002 Awards.
The latest opinion ranking places Virgin Blue above some of the world's most respected and established brands highlighting the airline's rapidly growing reputation in the Asia-Pacific region.
Virgin Blue Chief Executive, Brett Godfrey, said, "It is a tremendous achievement to be so highly rated when the company is just 3½ years old and more so to be recognised well beyond the boundaries of Australia. Our team should be extremely proud of its achievements since our competitors have had such a huge head start."
He added, "Virgin Blue has achieved substantial growth during the most turbulent era in aviation history, however we have remained committed to challenging the high priced travel establishment and maintaining our core values of quality, innovation, value for money and fun.
"Clearly people have embraced Virgin Blue as a brand that understands and strives to actively meet their individual needs", Brett Godfrey finished.
Virgin Blue currently operates a fleet of 41 Next Generation Boeing 737 aircraft between 20 destinations nationally and has recently launched 'Pacific Blue', its New Zealand based sister airline that began services between Christchurch and Brisbane on 29 January 2004.
* The Brand of the Year Award is an ongoing annual tracking survey to rate the effectiveness of branding strategies carried out by world leading brand consultancy Interbrand. Readers of the company's online brand exchange www.brandchannel.com voted online for the 'Brand of the Year' from November through December 2003.

Remarkably, most of it is good! Given the team's depth, any amount of time the Mets can spend this year with the vaguely insurmountable problem of how their frontline starting talent stacks up to the rest of the division is immensely valuable. It keeps New York from facing the completely insurmountable problem of matching up theur backup plans against the division's top talent, or even the division's backups.
So let's start with all the good news. David Wright, who hasn't played in a spring game yet, aims to change that today. This gives him about ten days to get ready for the season. Here's where it is worth pointing out that it is far more important to have Wright back for Game 3, say, than Game 1 if it means he rushes and aggravates his injury. But there you have it: Wright playing. How his injury, which he is rehabbing instead of having corrected with surgery, will respond to game conditions remains to be seen.
Johan Santana also pitches today, with an eye on 90-95 pitches. If he throws anything like he did last week, it reinforces a notion that once seemed fanciful: Santana, on Opening Day, pitching like the Johan Santana of old.
So this stuff is big: the team's most valuable position player and pitcher look to take steps forward today. Add in Scott Hairston, reserve outfielder extraordinaire, looking like he could play as soon as Wednesday, and center fielder Andres Torres feeling better, and everything is coming up blue and orange, right?
Well, not exactly. Thankfully Hairston/Torres are on the mend, because Hairston could be needed for things like subbing for Jason Bay, who was hit in yesterday's game. The injury appears to be nothing, but the larger point holds: Hairston is all that stands between an outfield injury and regular playing time for Mike Baxter or Adam Loewen, a pair of great unknowns. Doesn't mean they can't help; just means that counting on them is silly.
And in the great search for a lefty, Tim Byrdak's recovery from knee surgery means that the Mets need a fallback plan. It had been Garrett Olson, a washed-out former starter, but Olson was hit on the hand yesterday as well. So it could well be Josh Edgin, a live arm who hasn't pitched above A-ball. (This is what lack of depth means, folks.)
But look: the big pieces are Santana and Wright, who won't be enough to bring a massive number of wins by themselves, but whose absence would be catastrophic. That alone is reason to celebrate today.

text: Show Hide image Politics 24 January 2013 Commons Confidential: The lure of tea with Queenie How long do MPs' anti-monarchist principles survive when there are Palace garden party invitations to secure? Sign up for our weekly email * The Southend seat of the Tory time-server David Amess is 200 miles from Cardiff, 300 miles from Belfast and 350 miles from Edinburgh, so it is commendable of the English MP to take a keen interest in the affairs of all three. Amess, who after 30 years in parliament is probably best known (if at all) for falling for a Channel 4 Brass Eye prank about a mythical drug called "cake" that proved how gullible rent-a-quote MPs are, is one of a band of English Conservatives whipped into asking questions about nations short of Tories. So Amess tabled the first for Scottish Questions, the second for the Welsh, then the first for Northern Ireland. Labour's shadow Welsh secretary, Owen Smith, ridicules the group as Cameron's human shields. Her Majesty has started an annual mad scramble in the Houses of Parliament. MPs and peers are offered a choice of three garden parties this year, the first of which will be held in May. Each lawmaker can take an insignificant other for tea and cucumber sandwiches with Queenie on the lawn of Buckingham Palace. A spouse "wanting a day" out is the old excuse of Labour republicans. The arch-anti-monarchist Willie Hamilton's reputation took a hell of a beating when he was discovered to have surrendered and held a china cup and saucer at Her Majesty's command. News organisations sending out daily emails have a rival in John Spellar, the hyperactive MP for Warley in the West Midlands. The former whip, a member of Labour's shadow foreign affairs team, sends out three editions a day of Spellar News, including an early-bird special before 7am. The missives link to up to 20 items around the world. Spellar has a long interest in monitoring publications. When he was a national official of the EETPU electricians' union, he was a fanatical anti-communist. Spellar read the Morning Star every day and filed items on left-wingers in the labour movement. When the obituaries lamented the passing of a comrade, the unforgiving Spellar marked him or her down as one more communist off the list. Nadine Dorries, MP for Bushtucker Central, may be upset to learn that she was short-changed on I Want to Be a Celebrity . . . Get Me In There. She's yet to register how much she was paid to have insects crawl over her body but a sum of £40,000 has been mentioned. Not bad for a few weeks' work. Until you discover Baroness (Oona) King, persuaded to put her skates on for Dancing on Ice, rejected £70,000 to lark about in the jungle. Workless and Pensionless Secretary Iain Duncan Smith's ministerial motor is a shiny new black Range Rover. Nothing's too good for the persecutor of the poor, eh, Mr Benefit Slasher? Mice have infested the Labour end of the tearoom. Insert own joke about how it compliments the rats at the Tory end.

The last two weeks have been a real job-search marathon. A marathon that took place at IMD with the annual career fair and on-campus interviews. Companies set up stands to meet students and discuss potential opportunities. If there is fit, then they interview in the afternoon. Other companies had already been on-campus for presentations and only scheduled their first or second round interviews during the fair.
Needless to say that it was quite stressful for everyone, depending on the news received after the interviews, good or bad. Like training for a marathon, the job search requires mental strength, determination, dedication and focus. Read more

Cricket is going to overtake the fear feeling that terrorists created in mind of every indian

Western Counties North
North Bristol 18 Keynsham 43
PERHAPS it was three games in eight days took its toll on North Bristol, but this Western Counties North encounter ended disappointingly for them as they suffered their heaviest ever home league loss to Keynsham.
The visitors were workmanlike and took their chances whilst North often looked like a team that were struggling for consistency in their game plan and suffered for that reason.
However, the game started brightly for the home side as they gained an early edge in the scrum and looked combative around the fringes.
But there were ominous signs as Keynsham threatened down North's left hand side and if it wasn't for a superb try-saving tackle from Mike Ogbeta Keynsham would have scored their first try after six minutes.
They did start the afternoon's scoring though with a penalty soon after.
North were straight back into the game with Chris Jelf stealing two consecutive Keynsham lineouts, and from one such snaffle Carl Smith raced down the right but his pass to Ogbeta was adjudged forward.
After 13 minutes though Keynsham did claim a try as they capitalised on a missed tackle down the left to score and lead 8-0.
A super break by Jim Hitchman, who also enjoyed a fine game in defence, set up a penalty for Dan Snow, playing in his 150th league game, and the winger slotted the kick after 27 minutes.
Keynsham then sealed their win with three further first half tries in the final 14 minutes to take a 29-3 lead into the break.
An early second half penalty from Snow gave North an early reward at 6-29 but further haphazard play saw Keynsham score two further converted tries to lead 43-6.
North Bristol had the better of the final 20 minutes as scrum half Steve Trimmel and Alex Featherstone both scored tries following good forward drives but by then the game had gone as Keynsham left Oaklands with the win.
North Bristol scorers: Tries - Alex Featherstone, Steve Trimmel; Conversions - Dan Snow; Penalties - Dan Snow (2).
North Bristol 2nds & 3rds 40 St Bernadettes 2nds 5
A LARGE mixed squad of North Bristol seconds and thirds hosted St Bernadette's 14 men and shared their personnel throughout; making what could have been a one sided game into a fair one.
North's game-plan had been to a strong pack but this changed in a matter of minutes, despite a damp pitch, to a free-flowing one, celebrated by a very early try from hooker Mark Sterry, whose support play was excellent. Dan Harris kicked the tricky conversion.
More recycling and fine handling produced a Harris-converted try for winger Mike Huntbach, giving North a 14-0 lead.
Ten minutes later superb timing in midfield produced a fantastic burst through the middle from speedster Steve Hudd, who scorched in for a touchdown, converted by Harris at 21-0.
The kick also took Harris to over 200 career points kicked for North Bristol.
Great support play and a fine interplay between Hudd and fullback Peter Swallow ended with the latter crossing for a try, drop converted by the nonchalant Harris, making the lead 28-0.
Ever-present flanker Matt Bowden's industry was rewarded when he broke Saints' hearts by robbing their attacking endeavour and galloping from his own 22 to score at the other end. Another Harris drop-con lifted North to 35-0.
North's front-row were not to be denied their share of the limelight either as skipper Bez Reed fought his way over from close range to give North a 40-0 half-time lead.
As the game drew to a close Saints' persistence was rewarded with a last-gasp try by Pete McCann from strong driving play though North finished worthy winners.
North Bristol scorers: Tries - Matt Bowden, Steve Hudd, Mike Huntbach, James Reed, Mark Sterry, Peter Swallow; Conversions - Dan Harris (5).

Gorman: This clash of Titans, Planets will be out of this world
A word to the wise for those planning on attending the WPIAL Class AAA quarterfinal game between Mars and West Mifflin at Fox Chapel:
"If you're a fan," Mars coach Scott Heinauer said, "you better get there in time for kickoff."
This one won't last long.
"I guess everyone will be getting home early," West Mifflin's Ray Braszo said with a laugh, knowing there won't be many incompletions to stop the game clock.
This clash of the Titans and Planets promises to be out of this world, at least in terms of modern-day high school football offenses.
They are both 9-1 while relying almost exclusively on the run. In the first round, Mars rushed for 363 yards and passed for none in a 45-21 victory over Blackhawk, while West Mifflin ran for 336 yards and passed for 4 yards in a 28-14 victory over Knoch.
"He's a lot like me. That's what Ray likes to do: He likes to run the football, and we like to run the football," Heinauer said. "You're not going to see a West Coast, five-wide offense. That's not going to happen here. Neither of us run that style. Maybe it's because we're old-school.
"In Western Pennsylvania, you've got to be able to play good defense and run the football, especially in November."
In the era of new-age offenses ranging from the spread to the read-option, Mars and West Mifflin are throwbacks to the days of Darrell Royal and Bud Wilkinson running attacks at Texas and Oklahoma that relied upon deception and misdirection.
"As far as doing traps and pulling guards, we do a lot of things alike," Braszo said. "In a lot of ways we're similar, except we're more of an I-formation Veer and mid-line option team and they're a Wing-T with split backs."
Where Mars rides the legs of a 1,600-yard rusher in sophomore Josh Schultheis, West Mifflin senior quarterback Derrick Fulmore and junior tailback Jimmy Wheeler split the load. Against Knoch, they combined for all but 2 of the Titans' rushing yards.
However, Heinauer and Braszo designed their schemes not to suit their stars but rather the front five who blocks for them.
"It probably suits our players' abilities more than my coaching style," Heinauer said. "We don't have kids who are 6-foot-4, 260 pounds. We feel we can get angles. That's why we run the Wing-T. People don't see that a lot. It's like that Veer. People don't see that triple-option a lot.
"That's why we've stuck to what we've always done. It gives our kids opportunities. We've always had a running back who can step up and gain yards. Our goal is to give our back a crease so we can get to the secondary and go from there."
And West Mifflin has had a string of speedy quarterbacks, which is why Braszo borrowed from Nebraska's I-bone offense that allows him to feature Fulmore.
"We're trying to incorporate different runs for him," Braszo said. "A lot of people are doing it with spread. We just do it in a conventional concept."
Or an unorthodox one, depending on whether you love to let it fly or are a fan of relying on the run.
Either way, don't be late.

This study will evaluate: 1) the TCM diagnostic differentiation patterns of people who have PTSD as defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, 4th edition; 2) if an acupuncture treatment approach is acceptable to people with PTSD; and 3) if an acupuncture treatment approach is associated with a reduction in PTSD symptoms that is comparable to that of standard treatments. Because symptoms of depression, insomnia, and pain are often associated with PTSD, we will also evaluate the potential benefit of an acupuncture approach to depression, insomnia, and pain symptoms in people with PTSD.
Patients in this study will be randomized to one of three groups. Group A will receive acupuncture therapy. Group B will receive standard Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Group C is a control group and will receive no treatment. Patients in Groups A and B will undergo a total of 24 hours of therapy over the 3 month study course. All patients will have five nontherapeutic study visits; these visits will address diagnosis and assessment. Study visits will include assessments of PTSD symptoms, sleep symptoms, and level of impairment.

Photos pulled from an online photo service (like Snapfish, Shutterfly, etc.) or a website like instagram or Facebook may not be of a high enough resolution for printing. Often these sites compress the photos they display and show a low-resolution version optimized for the web. These low-res images will turn out pixelated when printed. If you are using a photo from one of these websites, try to get the original, high-res version if possible. Better yet, provide us with original photos taken by a digital camera or high-quality, high-resolution-capable phone.
Please note that if you submit a low-resolution, blurry, or grainy photo, we will let you know, but this can add several days to the proofing timeline. Also, we can change your photo to black and white or sepia tone for you at no extra cost (just leave a note with your order), but retouching or other photo editing is outside the scope of purchase.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A Duval County jury has convicted Taurice Brown in the shooting death of a mother of three as she sat in traffic two years ago.
Brown, 24, was found guilty Thursday night on first-degree murder and attempted murder and faces life in prison without parole.
The jury found that Brown fired the shot that hit 41-year-old Analiza Gobaton in the head as she sat in traffic on Blanding Boulevard on a Friday morning in October 2010.
She was heading to her three children's school for an award ceremony.
Prosecutors say Brown fired his gun in a shootout during a drug deal.
Prosecutors argued that Brown fired the shot, trying to kill another drug dealer, and in turn killed Gobaton. The defense said there are too many doubts that the man who pulled the trigger was Brown.
The state began its closing arguments playing to the emotional side of the story, highlighting the differences between the worlds of Gobaton and Brown.
Attorneys reminded the jury Gobaton was a mother on her way to her children's school to watch them receive awards for making honor roll. They painted the defendant as a drug dealer who opened fire that day trying to kill another drug dealer.
Prosecutors recapped the physical evidence and witness testimony, including that of Vincent Mariano, the man who was buying drugs, and from Anthony Wiggins, the other drug dealer investigators say was involved in the shootout.
Both testified Brown fired multiple shots.
But the defense questioned the character of those witnesses, both convicted felons facing other charges. The defense also reminded the jury that other witnesses described seeing a dark-skinned African-American man with hair fire shots, which attorneys say does not match Brown's description.
Brown will be sentenced November 15.

Malmesbury's 12th century Abbey has been converted into a state-of-the-art skatepark for the fifth year running – and organisers are expecting 600 youngsters to hurl themselves around it for the next two days.
Congregation members and volunteers from Christian Skaters UK spent two days convering the interior of the Abbey with quarter pipes and grinding platforms.
Aside from the skating, there is the Abbey's cafe and live music, including a folk ensemble from year 10 pupils at Malmesbury School.
Pre-booking for the skate park, which opened yesterday afternoon is advised, as some sessions are already full.
On Monday night volunteers helped lay 100 boards on the floor and professional from Green Square Housing Association spent two hours fixing them together.
Straw bales, to surround the skate park area, arrived on Tuesday night and were positioned in place by a team of 30 volunteers
Replacement boards have been donated by Wickes and in Chippenham and Halfords in Chippenham has donated prizes for a skating competition.
Tristan Cork, a member of the abbey congregation, said most youngsters choose to hang out in the abbey with friends for the rest of the day rather than leaving after their skating sessions.
He said: "We want to show the young people of Malmesbury that the Abbey is as much for them as for anyone else.
"It looks amazing when you walk through the door, you're expecting a church with candles and pews and you have this massive noisy, crashing skate park which is full of life."
Joel Harland, 22, from East Sussex took three days off from his job as an engineer to visit the skate park.
He said: "I've never seen a skate park installed in such an amazing venue, it's really cool to be on the ramps and look up at this amazing building."
Max Maxwell, from South East London, has come down to the skate park with his two boys Isaac, age ten, and Seth, age eight.
He said: "We've been all five years- my boys started skating when they were very small and they're quite accomplished skaters. Isaac goes to competitions all over the country and this is well and truly engrained in our annual skating calendar.
"We've made great friends over the last five years – the congregation has put us up so we feel part of the family down at Malmesbury Abbey now.
"Isaac enjoys showing the local skaters how much he has improved over the years. It's a Christian and skating pilgrimage combining the two things that are important for us."
Isaac Maxwell said: "It's a great place to come and show off my skills and to see other people's skills. It's quite amazing how they manage to do it in such a short space of time. It's good to preach the gospel and have fun at the same time."
Rev Neill Archer said: "We have had three days of hard set up, it went quiet at 10.30am this morning for the Holy Communion service then suddenly at 12pm it went ballistic."
The Abbey event runs until tomorrow.
Skate sessions can be booked at the cafe or online at www.malmesburyabbey.com/skate

Lancashire Home Life Services is a professional multi-service family owned business with over two decades of experience in property renovation. During our many years of property renovation we have gained a wealth of knowledge in property care and repair, and have hired all types of tradesmen from groundsmen up to roofers. We know what a tradesman does when, why, how and in which order! When the recession closed in and most building companies laid off workers, many good tradesmen lost a great deal of work and pursued alternative professions. Rather than losing our best tradesmen, we thought it would be great to bring all the tradesmen who we had used and found to be highly skilled, honest and reliable into one company. By doing this we could create a 'one stop shop' and help people with limited time or resources to easily find trustworthy and professional tradesmen to work within their home.

Cholesterol absorption inhibitors lower the
amount of cholesterol that your body absorbs. So your blood has lower total
cholesterol and lower
LDL (bad) cholesterol.
Cholesterol absorption inhibitors are
used to treat high cholesterol. This medicine lowers total cholesterol and LDL
(bad) cholesterol.
This medicine is used along with lifestyle
changes including diet and exercise to lower cholesterol. It can be used alone
or taken with a
statin or other cholesterol-lowering medicines.
Ezetimibe (Zetia) lowers total
cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels in people who have high cholesterol.1
A drug that combines ezetimibe and simvastatin (Vytorin) lowers total
cholesterol and LDL levels. But taking Vytorin may
not limit hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) any better than the statin medicine
alone. But the combination of
ezetimibe and simvastatin can lower LDL levels more than simvastatin
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
Call your doctor right away if you have:
Common side effects of this medicine include:
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug
Reference is not available in all systems.)
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor all of
the medicines you are taking, including
over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, or supplements.
Be active and eat a cholesterol-lowering diet in addition to taking this medicine. Ask your doctor for advice on a diet that can help lower cholesterol. An example is the Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes (TLC) diet. For more information, see:
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
Do not use this medicine if you are pregnant or planning to get pregnant. If you need to take this medicine, talk to your doctor about how you can prevent pregnancy.
If you are breast-feeding, talk to your doctor before using ezetimibe. Do not use ezetimibe and a statin if you are breast-feeding.
You will have regular doctor
visits and tests to check your cholesterol level and to check for side effects.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

UF safety leaving a mark
Published: Monday, April 14, 2014 at 12:06 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 14, 2014 at 12:06 p.m.
If you heard Florida coach Will Muschamp screaming during the first week of spring practices, chances are he was yelling at safety Marcell Harris.
In Saturday's Orange & Blue Debut, Muschamp hollered at Harris with a much different tone.
He recorded a game-high nine tackles as well as a pass breakup.
"I feel like I made a lot of plays," Harris said.
Last month was the first time playing at full strength for the redshirt freshman. In 2013, he enrolled at UF still recovering from MCL surgery and wasn't himself in fall training camp.
Harris sat out last season to let his knee heal, but he didn't take full advantage of his free time.
He entered this spring without knowing Florida's defense like the back of his hand.
"I really should have already learned the playbook and schemes," he admitted.
On top of getting his feet (and knee) wet in the early practices, Harris was also trying to get his assignments down. Muschamp and secondary coach Travaris Robinson were all over him each time he messed up.
"Honestly, I haven't been coached that hard," he said. "They coached me hard. They're going to coach you hard all through your four years. You just have to take coaching well and put it back out on the field."
Things began to click for Harris during the second half of spring. He started picking up the defense and gaining confidence in his knee, doing less thinking and more playing.
"I felt really, really good about it," Harris said. "Coming along all spring by learning techniques and what I'm supposed to do. Also, the competition at my position was really high."
Receiver Ahmad Fulwood has noticed the change in Harris, his 2013 classmate.
"Marcell is going to be dangerous," Fulwood said. "He's improved a lot from having knee surgery and being banged up to now where he's flying around and getting his nose in there. I see him on top of routes all the time. He's done a really good job of improving from where he was just a few months ago."
The biggest strength for Harris is his head-hunting mentality. The 6-foot-2, 215-pounder delivers jarring hits from his safety spot, and he had several Saturday.
"It just comes natural to me," Harris said. "Hits like that are supposed to come as long as you're running to the ball. I'm just going to bring it."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 12/5/2013 (1562 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A Toronto-based real estate investment trust has added three Winnipeg buildings -- its first acquisitions in the city -- to its rapidly expanding property portfolio and hopes to add many more over the next few years.
"We certainly see there are a number of properties we'd love to own in the market," Jay Charbonneau, director of investments for Northwest Healthcare Properties Real Estate Investment Trust, said in an interview.
"But for every buyer, you have to have a seller."
Charbonneau said discussions are underway with several other property owners, but no other deals are imminent.
"We're in varying degrees of conversations," he added.
Charbonneau said Northwest had been checking out the Winnipeg market "for some time" before it pulled the trigger on its first deal.
And it intends to be equally prudent when considering other potential acquisitions.
He said the kinds of properties Northwest is interested in include medical office buildings and community health-care offices or clinics. However, it's not interested in such things as retirement homes, he said.
Although Northwest's specialty is owning and managing health-care-related facilities, Charbonneau said it's willing to purchase other kinds of office buildings if such a deal makes sense.
Its first Winnipeg transaction is a case in point. The three buildings in the Portage portfolio were sold as a package because they're situated side by side on the same block -- the north side of Portage Avenue between Toronto and Victor streets -- and were owned by the same group -- Gladstone Finance Corp. Ltd.
But only one of them -- the three-storey one in the middle (755 Portage Ave.) -- is a health-care facility. All three floors are leased by the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority for its downtown west community area office.
The two-storey building at 765 Portage Ave. is inhabited by Big Brothers and Sisters of Winnipeg, while the one-storey one at 741 Portage Ave. is an Xtra Cash outlet.
Charbonneau admitted the three-storey heath-care building was the key to the deal.
"But the plan at this point in time is to hang on to all three of them," he said. "Tenants are already in place (in the other two)... and they're good buildings. So we're absolutely comfortable with keeping all of them."
Winnipegger Hart Mallin was the developer who built the three-storey building for Gladstone in 2008-09. Mallin said the owners received multiple offers -- he wouldn't disclose how many -- when it advertised the portfolio for sale.
Ken Jones, chairman of the commercial division of the Winnipeg Realtors Association, said he wasn't surprised to hear an out-of-province institutional investor snapped up the buildings.
"I would say it is another indication of the strength of the Winnipeg commercial marketplace," Jones said.
"Rents are increasing and there is such energy in the downtown, as evidenced by all of the recent development announcements, that Winnipeg is definitely on many radar screens."
"I also think the time has come for institutional players who aren't currently in the city to finally make that decision to pull the trigger and invest here," he added. "I think you are going to see an increase in activity in the near term."
Mallin said Northwest was the perfect party to acquire the buildings, because not only does it plan to retain them for the long term, it has developed an expertise in managing health-care facilities. So Gladstone officials knew the buildings would be well cared for, he added.
He predicted Winnipeg's commercial real estate sector also will benefit from having a major new player such as Northwest in the marketplace.
"These are people that can bring capital to the market for the development of other health-care properties, which is an untapped resource," he said.
"And this particular group can also be a great partner in owning and operating health-care buildings."
A spokesman for the WRHA, which has a long-term lease for the building at 755 Portage, said it's looking forward to establishing a long-term relationship with its new landlord.
"Our needs are different than a typical office environment and it is comforting to know that we will have a landlord that can draw upon their experience from their other health-care properties in order to provide viable solutions for any issues that may arise," said Holly Madden, the WRHA's chief administrative officer, community and corporate.
Madden said the WRHA leases most of the buildings in its community portfolio, and has had issues in the past with some of its landlords.
"Although we are in the early days of our relationship with Northwest, they would understand our requirements for dealing with any heating, cooling or air-pressure issues in a timely fashion so that we can provide a safe and comfortable environment for our clients and staff," she said.
"The less time we spend dealing with building issues, the more time we can spend on serving and providing care to our clients."

Heeeeey RPSers (micro-ATX question)...
I'm looking at building a new PC here soon, and I'm trying to gather some research together in order to decide if I want to build a micro-ATX or a standard ATX case. I'm kinda over the whole monster-rig-building phase, and just want something to run current-gen games well. Is it possible to fit that power into a micro-ATX build, or do I need to stick with the standard-sized ATX motherboards?
You can fit it all into a micro-ATX. The most important thing is making sure the case isn't too small for whatever graphics card you get (which will probably eat up all the room) will fit in the case. You'll probably not get sli or much in the way of PCI slots and you might be limited to two dimm slots, but by the sounds of it you'll get everything you want.
Micro-ATX is the new ATX. Even Mini-ITX is beginning to become the new Micro-ATX. Two-way SLI/Crossfire is quite possible with Micro-ATX, though a mid-tower ATX case might be better for cooling. With a single graphics card and a sane number of hard drives, the difference between ATX and Micro-ATX really dwindles. It's mostly about motherboard pricing and overclocking capability.
I don't have any intention to overclock anything (just because I never have, and never really saw a reason to do so), and I usually only purchase a single card. I'm glad to hear that it does at least seem feasible, though, as I want something that will sit on my desk, possibly behind my monitor, rather than on my floor underneath my desk where it's taking up my foot space. :3
I use a micro ATX, and though its video card is a little underpowered that's more down to budget constraints than size constraints. If I wanted to I could slap a big expensive video card in there. Otherwise the computer is pretty potent, with a bit of wiggle room for overclocking if I really wanted to do that (I don't).
So... Now that we seem to have established with relative certainty that mATX is possible (thank you for the rapid responses), does anyone have any recommendations on hardware? NZXT is where I always went for my cases in the past, but they only have one mATX case, and it seems to have issues with construction and standardization of parts. So, I think I'm going to stay away from that one.
Case choice is going to be a matter of personal preference to some extent. The ones I'd recommend right off the bat are the Fractal Design Arc Mini, the Fractal Design Define Mini, and the Silverstone TJ08-E.
The Define Mini is the more fancy-pants sound-dampened option, while the other two are more or less trying to do the same as traditional midi tower ATX gaming cases.
Was in this same situation, did a lot of research and came down to these conclusions:
ATX vs. MicroATX
+ Good balance of high end components and small size
+ Great flexibility in cases nowadays, from miniature to full gfx card accommodating variants
+ good selection of motherboards, with as much overclockability as larger sizes
-Not much smaller than ATX when compared to mini ITX, 2.4 inch difference in height only
-Not as much variety in motherboards when compared to ATX or EATX, tend to be a bit more expensive with less features
-Limited RAM slots
-VERY limited PCIe slots (usually max 3)
+ oldest standard for personal home computers, huge variety in motherboard models and features
+ Great expandability, up to 6 RAM slots and 8 PCIe slots
+ Quite reasonable size/features tradeoff
- Very challenging to fit into compact cases
- Smallest case possible for ATX is 14 inches wide (or 14 inches tall if tower case)
- Generally more difficult to install and work with in SFF case. Difficult choices regarding maximum number of hard disks and cooling must be made.
For me it boiled down to this:
Would I be willing to live with a case this big?
440mm(W) x 175mm(H) x 425mm(D)
or go smaller and lose out on expandability with this?
Ultimately I went with ATX. I didn't care about the depth of the case so much, just the height and width.
You can overclock, use regular desktop hardware, fit in watercooling, it's all been done on small mATX cases. What you do lose out on though is the ability to say add a PCIe RAID card in addition to a sound card and gfx card, or have 6 ram sticks. Flexibility regarding expansion cards is severely limited. The BIOS that comes with mATX boards is also much more stripped down than ATX or EATX, and they don't have as many indicator lights on the circuit board itself that can warn you if voltage levels are unstable for ram, CPU and PCIe slots.
The expandability and bios features of ATX motherboards won me over.Steam profile

As winter vegetables go, beets are pretty much as controversial as you get. You don't hear people debating the virtues of the potato or the butternut squash, but most people either love or hate these sweet, earthy root vegetables.
I've been in the former group almost from the time I was in the womb, but if you're still leery of these roots, these unexpected recipes from Cooking Channel chefs and bloggers around the Web (beet gnocchi and beet-chocolate cake, anyone?) might just change your mind.
Beet Salads: Raw and Roasted
Roasting beets intensifies their sweetness, so they pair perfectly with a tart vinaigrette, creamy goat cheese and slightly bitter mixed greens. (Try Kelsey's classic Roasted Beet Salad.)
No time for roasting? Like carrots, beets are crunchy and sweet when raw, and retain more of their earthy flavor. This shredded beet salad from The New York Times' Recipes For Health series is dressed with a simple orange-lemon mix. If you don't think you like beets, try them this way!
Beets Plus Grains
Beets add sweet flavor (and amazing color) to grains of all sorts. David Rocco uses pureed roasted beets as the not-so-secret ingredient in his risotto. The rice absorbs the beet liquid as it cooks, taking in lots of flavor and a magenta hue.
For a little healthier take on the same theme, roast beets with the skin on and mix with quinoa, onion and toasted walnuts, like alla Poppy does here. And don't forget the greens — saute them alongside like you would chard or spinach.
Beet-Red Pastas
There's no denying that fresh pasta is amazing, so it only stands to reason that beets + fresh pasta would yield a product that's twice as amazing: something strikingly beautiful, sweet and tender. Try your hand at these beet gnocchi (adorable! pink! delicious!) from IronStef or vegan beet pasta from Annie at Sensible Living (she uses the pasta to make vegan lasagna.)
Beets For Dessert
A beet dessert might sound counter-intuitive, but the veggie's natural sugars make it the perfect base for a sweet ending. If you find yourself with a surplus of these gems (it takes about 2 pounds), try out Thomas Keller's famous Beet Ice Cream (as interpreted by the Daley Dish.)
And don't forget the cake…chocolate and beet, perhaps? The combination might sound odd, but as explained over at Canelle et Vanille, the sweet earthiness of the beets pairs perfectly with rich, dark chocolate. And, they're gluten-free to boot!
Beets: Love 'em or hate 'em? How do you eat them?

Win It! Canon PowerShot Digital Camera + 'Speechless' by Hannah Harrington!
Fight bullying with Love Is Louder and Hannah Harrington's new novel, 'Speechless.'
-The Betty Editors
Bullying in schools has always been a problem, but in recent years, it's been getting more and more out of control—and that's why we're one hundred percent behind Speechless, the new novel by author Hannah Harrington.
Speechless centers around Chelsea, a sixteen-year-old who relishes her in-crowd status, gained through her friendship with the popular Kristen and cemented by her penchant for passing along gossip. But after Chelsea drunkenly outs her classmate Noah at a party, he is brutally beaten by two jocks, one of whom is Kristen's boyfriend. When Chelsea goes to the police about what happened, her world implodes, and she, formerly party of the bullying crowd, becomes bullied herself. In response, Chelsea takes a vow of silence, communicating her thoughts by writing on a small whiteboard. Her vow, along with new friendships and a budding relationship with Noah's best friend, change and deepen Chelsea, who learns about the power of love over hate, real friendship, and being true to yourself.
Check out the book trailer here:
