Great Gatsby Met Gala Screening
Carey and Leo Host a Big Apple Gatsby Bash
Carey Mulligan, wearing Lanvin, joined Leonardo DiCaprio to show their new film, The Great Gatsby, to a star-studded crowd in NYC last night. Katy Perry, Gwen Stefani, David Schwimmer, and Emma Roberts turned out to see the Baz Luhrmann-directed version of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel. The celebs retired to the Top of the Standard for the afterparty. Many may return to the Standard's top-floor bar this evening, too — it's a popular spot for post-Met Gala bashes!
Carey and Leo mingled with famous fans of their film following a big week. They attended the NYC premiere Wednesday at Lincoln Center along with costars Tobey Maguire and Isla Fisher. The coming days will bring more fun. They're expected on the Croisette in Cannes to screen their film, which will open the city's 2013 film festival.

You step off the plane in your down jacket, experiencing that weird reality hit that comes with the end of the holiday: in the morning you have been cross-country skiing through woods – just you, your family and some wild turkeys – and eight hours later you are back in city traffic, and what happens? Investments. That's what.
The rest of the US economy may be teetering on the fiscal cliff, Europe may be looking frim and luxury growth may be slowing, but in contemporary fashion, in America at least, things are getting off to a solid start. This morning, Rag & Bone, the hipster New York label, announced an investment by Irving Place Capital, the middle-market private equity fund, of about 25 per cent. Irving in the past has invested in Stuart Weitzman and denim brand Seven for all Mankind. And that follows two other such announcements by other labels. Read more

Evolution Hoax
Le Temps, one of the leading daily newspapers of Switzerland, devoted a place to an article dated May 26, 2010, about the conference held in Lausanne by the representatives of Harun Yahya. The item was cited as follows:
The Biggest Absence was Harun Yahya
Last evening, 300-400 people came to Lausanne, Beaulieu, in order to watch the Turkish Creationist at the conference, but the connection could not be established. It was noted that he [Harun Yahya] will attend the conference organized in Geneva on Wednesday evening. In the conference that lasted for 3 hours, scientists close to him explained their views. While refuting the evolution of species, they pointed out that animals now are not different from fossils of millions of years ago, by Allah's leave. (You can learn how fossils refute the theory of evolution from here and here.)

Building a powerful midsection is essential serious lifting. It also makes you look good. Choose your
reason, you need to do it.
Check out Rudolph Liska, as shown in Mark Berry's book "Physical Improvement Vol. 2", from 1930. Berry was the Olympic coach in 1932. Remember, this was a time when the Great Depression was in full swing. Weightlifting wasn't a new thing, but you certainly did not find a gym on every corner. These guys also didn't take steroids. They simply had not been invented yet.
Liska is attacking the abs from both directions. Note, he has added weight. If you want to build bulging muscles, what do you do? You train like a bodybuilder with lighter weights and higher reps. Look at modern competitive bodybuilders, especially in the off season. Now, while forgetting about the Super Heavy Weight Class, look at competitive weightlifters. Those guys don't have big guts. In fact, their "cores" or midsections are tight and powerful. So, maybe it is time for you to pick up some weights for working your abs.
In the top photo, Liska is doing a standard sit-up with a barbell behind his head. He is not holding a plate on his chest. This makes for maximum chest expansion and range of motion with the abdominals. The first part of the exercise is pulling the barbell off the board. Make sure to use the abs to do this, not the arms or lats. The abdominals are groups of small muscles, so you should try to work them as such and in sequence throughout the range of motion. With a modern adjustable sit-up board you can modify the resistance and the muscle group emphasis merely by changing that angle.
The second photo is a sit-up board leg raise. I don't advise you to hold a plate with your feet. While, in the original photo, it looks like the plate is tied to his feet, Iron Boots would be a much safer and more effective tool for this exercise. They will also allow you to do an isolateral version, ie. Alternating Leg Raise, with adjustable weight.
Here is a great home grade ab bench for doing any of these movements.
With any of these exercises, the classic 5 sets of 5 reps are a great way to go. As you can see in the photos, Liska had outstanding abs, serratus and oblique muscles.
All the best,
Roger LaPointe
"Today is a good day to lift."

Sleep and Mental Illness is a book with a unique goal: to show the importance of sleep in mental illness. Sleep restriction and poor sleep quality are endemic in our culture, and behavioral health concerns are widespread as well. A resource that addresses the interplay of these diverse morbidities is welcome and deserves a spot in the libraries of medical specialists of all kinds. The text is divided into three main sections covering basic science, neuroendocrinology, and clinical science. Many chapters are well-written and well substantiated with up-to-date references, although a few are not written to the same standard of quality. In this review, we will highlight some of the strengths as well as some of the weaknesses that we perceived.
In the neuroendocrinology section, chapter 10 discusses endocrine relationships across the reproductive cycle and is particularly well done. The reader is taken through the life cycle of a woman and important topics including biological rhythms, menstrual–cycle related mood symptoms, pregnancy, postpartum mood disorders, and menopause are competently and clearly addressed. Chapter 13 reviews the International Classification of Sleep Disorders and includes a good summary. Chapter 14 provides a nice review of Spielman's "3P" model of insomnia. There are other excellent chapters such as those reviewing the important topics of dementia, Prader-Willi syndrome, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and more. Other positive elements include the thorough discussion of wakefulness-promoting neurotransmitters and the role of hypocretin, although we were left confused as to whether one author considered hypocretin 1 and 2 both to be present in humans.
Weaknesses in a few chapters seem mainly related to overgeneralizations and assumptions based on inadequate data and the use of outdated primary literature, which may be misleading to beginners and frustrating to those already well versed in the topics of mental illness and sleep. Occasionally, assumptions are made that do not necessarily fit the current standard of practice. The basic sciences section aims to cover a large range of sleep topics and several chapters seemed repetitive, containing only slightly different approaches to the same topic. Some of the chapters do not reflect the most current findings. A few specific examples: At least two chapters mention Dement and Kleitman's 1950s classification of sleep, which includes NREM 4 sleep. The 2007 American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) Manual for the Scoring of Sleep and Associated Events has combined the previously separate criteria for NREM 3 and NREM 4 into unified criteria defining a stage N3, thus rendering the earlier classification system obsolete for many. Another chapter makes statements about neurochemistry and pharmacology based on references to literature published in the 1960s and 1970s, such as "monoaminergic activity is responsible for the occurrence of some, if not all, types of depression," which ignores the advances made in understanding the specific roles of serotonin, dopamine and other neurotransmitters in affective disorders.
In the section on neuroendocrinology, chapter 8 explains that normal aging is associated with corresponding decreases in slow wave sleep (SWS) and that elderly subjects commonly exhibit low or absent SWS. However, other chapters place an emphasis on decreased SWS as a correlate of mental illness without the caveat that this also accompanies normal aging without associated psychopathology. The authors of chapter 9, who are based in Australia, discuss metabolic changes in serious mental illness and state that weight gain and obesity are present in schizophrenic patients independent of their medications. In contrast, our experience in the U.S. suggests that untreated schizophrenics are often too disorganized to successfully obtain food or eat and therefore more likely to be thin and malnourished; one wonders if this is the result of cultural differences. Moreover, in the manic phase of bipolar disorder, the patient is often too busy to eat. Major depression by DSM 4 criteria includes changes in appetite, which is often reduced, and consequently weight loss is a common sign of significant depression. References to susceptibility to schizophrenia being conferred by a polymorphism in the promoter region for quinone reductase 2 (QR2) are made in chapter 11, which are at this point are most likely premature. The author was possibly citing Harada's 2003 paper, which suggested that individuals with the deletion of the 29 base pair sequence in the promoter region of the NQO2 gene may confer susceptibility to a certain form of schizophrenia. The study had a small sample size and further study is required to imply a testable genetic link to schizophrenia.
In the clinical science section, the author of chapter 24 rescues previous statements and simplifies sleep in schizophrenia to what it is: an intimate dimension of the clinical picture for which more effort and research attention should be devoted. Chronic psychosis commonly imparts undesirable symptoms of passivity, apathy, negativism, and isolation, while Steven Bartels (1991) showed that fewer than 50% of schizophrenics exhibited any hostility. Of those who were judged to be hostile, contributing factors included housing instability, paranoid hallucinations or delusions, schizoaffective diagnosis, alcohol use, and bizarre behavior. Despite this, one author in this section states that schizophrenic dreams are most consistent with overt hostility, a formulation that does nothing more than reinforce society's false assumption, often depicted in television melodrama, that schizophrenics are violent. The resultant victimization is perhaps a greater public health concern than perpetration. Teasing out the difference between a dream waking the patient from sleep and a hallucination usually requires significant expertise, and this important distinction was not clearly made.
Also in this section, a difference in practice standards between some authors and current best practice in the United States appeared evident. Some drugs that are mentioned are not available in the U.S.; for example, the sale of nefazodone was discontinued here and in Canada in 2004 by Bristol-Myers Squibb due to rare instances of hepatotoxicity resulting in liver transplant or death, and agomelatine, not yet FDA approved for the U.S. market, is still undergoing Phase III trials by Novartis. Vocabulary is used at times that is part of British parlance and relatively unfamiliar in North American conversation, however this presents an opportunity for expansion of our own cultural competence (and that's "jolly good").
In conclusion, the book Sleep and Mental Illness contains some very good chapters and reinforces a key principal that quality sleep is an invaluable asset to the quality of life of those with mental illness. It rightly emphasizes that neuromodulators involved in sleep are also part of current thinking on the pathogenesis of mental illness. Moreover, important sleep issues are addressed in special populations such as Alzheimer patients and those with Prader-Willi syndrome.
The authors have indicated no financial conflicts of interest.

Great price on this CAI, I chatted with one of the agents during purchase for advice and he suggested the aFe. During the chatt process, the agent even adjusted the price to beat a competitor I researched while online. The CAI arrived as planned, installation was relatively simple, but I wish there were more specifics as to the routing of the washer fluid hoses.

Statement by Ambassador Wittig on the situation in Haiti in the Security Council's meeting
(check against delivery)
Mr. President,
let me join others in thanking the Presidency of Bosnia and Hercegovina for convening this meeting.
One year after the devastating earthquake, claiming more than 220.000 lives, our thoughts are with the victims and their families. We recall the supreme sacrifice made by the personnel of the UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH).
I would like to thank Under Secretary General Valerie Amosand Under Secretary General Alain Le Roy and their teams as well as the contributing countries for their great commitment in tackling the multitude of challenges we are facing in Haiti. We are grateful for today's comprehensive briefings and analysis of the situation in Haiti that continues to be complex and challenging.
I also thank Mr. Cazeau (DPR Haiti) for his remarks.
Mr. President,
Haiti has suffered beyond imagination.
Please allow me to share some of our views mainly on two key aspects :
- the humanitarian tragedy and international efforts to assist the people of Haiti
- ways to overcome the current political crisis.
First, we are grateful to all aid workersfrom the United Nations and hundreds of NGOs in Haiti for their tireless efforts in very difficult circumstances.
They did not falter when faced with the magnitude of the catastrophe.
We acknowledge the important role and contribution of the United Nations Coordinator for humanitarian affairs and appreciate the efforts undertaken until today by OCHA.
OCHA is acting in a very complex and difficult environment with hundreds of NGOs working in the field.
We would like to encourage OCHA to continue its efforts with a view to further improve coordination of all stakeholders involved.
We also recall that millions of private donorsdemonstrated their solidarity with the hard hit people of Haiti in a truly unprecedented manner. These donors expect our best efforts to ensure that their aid reaches the people in need.
In 2011 the focus of international assistance will continue to shift from humanitarian towards reconstruction efforts. We commend the constructive work of the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission, [ at the same time we would like to learn more about the assessment of the current performance of the Haiti Recovery Fund].
Germany, like others, has contributed substantially from the outset to the relief and reconstruction efforts conducted by the United Nations and other humanitarian organisations.
Let me mention a point of concern to us: the protection of people from sexual violence, in particular girls and women living in camps. We welcome ongoing efforts to address the situation.
Mr. President
We should not forget the central role of the people of Haiti in rebuilding their country.
The strength, the determination, and the spirit of millions of Haitians command our respect.
Mr. President
Let me turn to the second key aspect:
For the ongoing recovery, reconstruction and development to succeed, political stability is indispensable. The current political crisis surrounding the first round of the presidential elections is a cause for serious concern.
This Council has consistently underlined the immense importance of free and fair elections in Haiti for building the political foundations on which to rebuild the country.
We welcome the continued efforts of SRSG Mulet and USG Le Roy to engage the political leadership of Haiti in a dialogue aimed at enhancing political stability and national unity.
The decision by the government of Haiti to call upon the OAS to send an expert verification mission on the first round of the presidential elections was a good one.
We fully support the recommendations of the OAS Expert Verification Mission contained in their report.
We commend the Provisional Electoral Council (PEC) for having provided access to information for the OAS Mission. We now urge the PEC to take the logical second step and base its decisions on the OAS recommendations regarding the second round of the presidential elections
Credible elections are crucial for the political stability and ongoing reconstruction efforts in Haiti.
Germany joins the call on all political leaders in Haiti to assume their responsibilities and work together in order to bring the electoral process to a successful conclusion.
In concluding, Germany remains committed to support Haiti's critical needs. Together, we can make 2011 a better year for Haiti.
Thank you, Mr. President

In this time of cutting back, it is inappropriate for the Hale Centre Theatre to request $2 million from the state to help it build a new facility in Sandy.
Our legislators talk about tough times, not enough revenue; it's disconcerting that programs for the poor and homeless may need to be cut back. Then The Trib reports on this boondoggle ("Hale Centre Theatre's bid for more taxpayers' money creates drama," Tribune, March 3).
It is sad that the Legislature would even consider this request before our teachers, firefighters and police are paid more money. It is disgraceful for Hale Centre's two directors, married, to jointly be paid more than $300,000.

Topic: FDA URGENT WARNING 8 July,08
FDA released an urgent warning on Fluoroquinolone Antimicrobial Drugs. Antibiotics like cipro, levaquin, floxins an others. Patient should stop taking immediately if any tendon pain,swelling or inflamation. Could cause tendon ruptures.
I bring this to everyoness attention as many cc patients get prescribed antibiotics for infections or fevers. You may want to be cautious and discuss with doctor the warning which is being considered for black box labeling as well. Maybe an alternative type antibiotic could be used.
I found this out only because my future son-in law is a Lab Tech and gets all these urgent fda warnings.

- Call for Proposals: Sexual Assault Demonstration Initiative Advocacy Training Manual and Train-the-Trainer Curriculum
Call for Proposals: Sexual Assault Demonstration Initiative Advocacy Training Manual and Train-the-Trainer Curriculum
The SADI has been designed by the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), the National Sexual Assault Coalition Resource Sharing Project (RSP) and the National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) to address the challenges that dual/multi-service agencies face in reaching sexual assault survivors within their communities. Through the SADI, six dual/multi-service agencies who have demonstrated a desire to enhance sexual assault services and have the organizational capacity to effectuate change were selected to participate as Project Sites. The Project Sites are receiving customized technical assistance to assess their strengths and weaknesses in currently reaching survivors of sexual assault within the community, the services currently provided to this population by the agency, and assessing any specific technical assistance to address the needs of underserved populations. The Project Sites are receiving guidance on developing and implementing models of service provision that prioritize the needs of sexual assault survivors and the resources to implement those service models. The advocacy training manual and train-the-trainer curriculum is one element of the training and technical assistance for Project Sites.
Specifically, we are looking for the creation of:
• Training manual for advocates in dual/multi-service agencies to enhance their understanding of sexual violence and skills needed to effectively respond to survivors of sexual violence. This manual should be designed specifically for the six Project Sites, but will ultimately be shared with all dual programs around the country. This manual should provide a foundation on sexual violence so that advocates in dual programs understand:
o Spectrum of sexual violence: Sexual assault is a tool that perpetrators use to oppress and control individuals across a broad socio-ecological spectrum. While it includes sexual abuse that occurs in intimate relationships/family violence, it is not confided to that specific type of violence.
o Sexual assault across the lifespan
o Trauma-informed approach to sexual violence
o Anti-oppression framework
o Advocacy and Intervention approaches
• Train-the-Trainer curriculum that provides training for two people from each Project Site on how to use the training manual and provide training to advocates in their programs.
In your response to our request, please answer the following questions:

The Audi Q7 returns for 2013 essentially identical to the outgoing model, with only a few changes. Chief among them is a bump in power output for the 3.0L clean-diesel TDI V6 offering, which now does 240 horsepower. Audi claims the engine is now 55 pounds lighter than the unit it replaces, with fuel efficiency increased 12 percent from 17 mpg and 25 mpg city/highway to 19 mpg and 28 mpg, respectively. Additionally, a rear seat entertainment system is now available and Atlantis Blue replaces Mugello Blue Pearl Effect as an exterior color.
Excellent multimedia interface; two new, more efficient gasoline engines, available TDI clean diesel engine option; luxurious interior amenities; excellent handling
The Q7 packs a lot of safety and luxury features into a large SUV. It's longer than almost any other luxury SUV, with lots of room for seven passengers in comfy leather seats. The NHTSA bestowed a 5-star crash-test rating on the Q7, and the IIHS granted it "Top Safety Pick" status. Opting for the TDI clean diesel engine adds extra value in the form of fuel economy, with estimates of 19 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway.

I just emailed two new pictures to be posted. One is of me, my best friend Pam, and Aaron Boone. The other is me, Pam, and Sean Casey. They were taken at RedsFest last December. I am the one with my hair up. My friend has her hair down and is wearing a rebel shirt.
Go Reds!!!
Sean Casey and Aaron Boone Forever!!
Hmmmmmm, very attractive. I'm having a hard time deciding who is prettier, Heather in that top picture, or Aaron in the bottom one?  I think I'll give the edge to Heather, but it was close. In the end the red hair always wins out over the blonde highlights
Thanks for the pictures of you and the fellas, Heather.
 lol!
Go Reds!!!
Sean Casey and Aaron Boone Forever!!
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with RedStorm. There's something about Redheaded women.

I always get compliments because of my hair color. I hate my hair and most people tell me I'm crazy, but I love the attention it gets me! Anyone else got a comment, I can take some negative ones (I love criticism) also!

Go Reds!!!
Sean Casey and Aaron Boone Forever!!
Hi Heather How are you???
Believe it or not, I was born with a carrot top head of hair and I always hated it, so in the past few years, I have gone blonde...but, I always know when it's time to "touch up" because my red shines through, LOL, like in my picture of me with Greg Colbrunn and also the one of me and Byung-Hyun Kim. So we girls can say we are true Red Heads
A Penny for my thoughts=BRAD

Should I put my prom pictures on here or not?
Go Reds!!!
Sean Casey and Aaron Boone Forever!!
Shoot, red hair is God's gift to the world. Please do post your prom picture!
I've been to dinner at Jimmy Buffet's house, and I've eaten it at a homeless shelter. And there's great joy and harrowing terror to be found in both places.

Okay, I'll admit it, I love Redheads too! Great pics Heather.
My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
I sent two pictures to Boss. Did you get them?

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 10/3/2013 (1625 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
If I am famous for anything, I am famous for my complete and utter devotion to all things bacon.
You could probably say the same thing about any guy of my gender -- bacon ignites our passion more than any other food item, including breakfast sausages, whether link or patty -- but in the land of bacon, I am king.
For instance, a couple of weeks ago, after I finished reading to 500 kids for I Love to Read Month, the school librarian, in a heart-rending act of kindness, showed her appreciation for my efforts by dipping into her book bag and pulling out a rare first edition of Moby Dick.
I am kidding, of course. What she pulled out and presented to me in front of everyone was a pound of delicious bacon. "If you read his columns, you will know Mr. Speirs LOVES bacon," she explained to the assembly.
Had you had been there, you would have seen all the guys in the crowd, teachers and kids alike, nodding their heads to indicate this made perfect sense, whereas the women and girls were sporting looks that conveyed the following emotional concept: "Huh?"
Just this weekend, my wife joined her sister and a friend for brunch and, at the end, her sister gave her a pound of bacon to take home to me because -- you are going to find this hard to believe -- when she looked in her freezer, she decided, quote, "she had too much bacon."
As I sit typing these words at my home computer, I can already hear male readers snorting in derision at the idea someone, presumably in their right mind, could believe it is possible to have "too much" bacon.
Anyway, when my wife walked in the door, she proudly displayed the bacon, which had all of us smacking our lips, with the exception of my son's longtime girlfriend.
"Ewwwwww!" is what she snorted in disgust.
"I beg your pardon?" I said with righteous indignation.
"Bacon is disgusting!" is what she replied.
By way of background here, I should mention my son's girlfriend is not just a vegetarian, but (and this is hard for me to say) she has never tasted meat in her life.
"That is totally unfair," I scolded her, emphasizing the point by making a frowny face. "You've never eaten bacon, so you don't know whether, deep down, you secretly love it."
Surprisingly, she did not accept this logic. "It smells like rotting flesh," she declared with what I suspect passes among vegetarians for a cruel smile.
I was undaunted. "That makes no sense at all," I noted, gruffly. "How about if I told you that I hated palm trees, even though I've never eaten a palm tree? How about that?"
I suspect I scored major points with the palm-tree argument, because she gave me the same look of confusion mixed with pity that I frequently get from our dogs.
"Next Christmas I am going to give you the Wake'n Bacon Alarm Clock," I informed her.
"What's the Wake'n Bacon Alarm Clock?" she asked, visibly puzzled.
I explained that, according to news stories emailed to me by several meat-loving readers, it is a clock made to resemble a pig and, when you go to sleep, you place a piece of frozen bacon inside and set the clock, then 10 minutes before your wake-up time, the clock starts cooking and you are welcomed into a new day by the heavenly scent of bacon-y goodness.
"Ewwwwwww!" is what my son's girlfriend repeated.
As a sensitive modern father, I sensed I'd pushed the bacon issue too far. "Maybe I could make you a nice BLT?" I said by way of a peace offering.
"A what?" she replied in a clearly suspicious tone.
"You know," I said as I walked away, "a broccoli, lettuce and tomato sandwich."

TONY Smith believes gaining an insight into Sunday's opposition from players who spent time at Bradford Bulls can be useful, but is not crucial to Wolves' preparation.
Danny Bridge recently returned from a loan spell at the Odsal Stadium, while Ben Evans completed a similar move last year.
But Wolves' head of coaching and rugby is wary of worrying too much about Sunday's Super League Round 11 opposition.
"Danny is certainly in Warrington colours now and will pass on anything he does know about our opponents this week," he said.
"We've got someone else who has had experience there in Ben Evans and he's quite aware of what they're about as well.
"He has been able to give us insight into their thoughts of play, which can be beneficial, but you can get bogged down in worrying about your opponent as well.
"It can give you a bit of insight into what they're about, but I think if you watch most of the teams you can pick up a fair bit about them.
"Whilst information is good, and we're pleased about it, there is only so much we want to take on."
Bradford boast their own insight into the Warrington coach's school of thought with ex-Wolves player Matty Blythe among their ranks and one of Smith's former Leeds players, Francis Cummins, as their boss.
"Matty has a fair insight," added Smith. "I worked with Franny Cummins both as his coach and he worked on my coaching staff at Leeds, so he knows me pretty well and I know him pretty well.
"All those things they're useful, but it then comes down to the right sort of mentality and tactics for the week.
"We're hoping to get those things right and I'm sure Franny is hoping to get those things right from his team's perspective, so it should make for a good match up."
As for Bridge, he is yet to make an appearance in primrose and blue since his return but Smith expects to see him in action soon.
"He's available for selection," he added. "It will probably make it a little hard with (Ben) Harrison being back fit and healthy.
"However, we've been skinny on the back row and skinny on the number of players we've had in that area, so hopefully we can get Danny out there playing soon, I think it'll do him a world of good."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 9/2/2013 (1652 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Anthony Chaboyer's mother took an extra part-time job every year before Christmas to make sure Anthony had lots of gifts under the tree. But now because of that job, Anthony will never spend another Christmas with his mom.
Anthony's mom, Lissa Chaboyer, was stabbed to death while driving a taxi in Thompson on Nov. 26, 2005 around 12:30 a.m.
Her body was found in a parking lot behind the City Centre Mall on the ground next to her vehicle. She was 35.
The slaying has never been solved.
Lissa was a single mother and Anthony was only 16 when his mom was killed. He has been raised by his grandparents ever since.
His grandfather, Milton Chaboyer, said although they have all dealt with something unimaginable, the biggest tragedy was a son losing his mother.
"You and I can never imagine what the little fellow has gone through," Milton said. "There are memories of her everywhere and occasions are really tough. He lost a big part of his life. He really misses her. We all miss her."
Despite having to deal with the loss of his mother and the brutal way in which she died, Milton said his grandson has actually become a stronger and more mature person in the years since her death.
"It strengthened him. He wants to do the types of things his mother would have wanted him to do, so his grades improved, he graduated and he's been working the same full-time job for four years."
Along with being a single mother, Lissa was a foster mother to many children over the years. She drove a taxi to make sure her family was well taken care of at Christmastime. Milton believes she was probably killed as part of a robbery, but said he has not always gotten straight answers from the police.
"She was at the end of her shift and probably had a few hundred dollars on her, but the cops never did tell us. If it was a robbery, how can any life be worth a few hundred dollars? We could deal with it if it was an accident or a natural death, but there was just no reason for this."
Milton said that over the eight years since the slaying, he has grown more and more frustrated with the lack of progress in the case.
"In the last few years it has just gone completely dormant. It just feels like the case has just been put in some box on a shelf. We don't want to call it a cold case, but that is what it feels like more and more every day."
RCMP spokeswoman Sgt. Line Karpish said the investigation of the homicide remains active and is being conducted by the RCMP "D" Division historical case unit.
Although many details of the killing are still unknown, Karpish said that on the fatal night, Lissa was dispatched to a fare at the Thompson Arena just after midnight and a few minutes later called her dispatcher to say she was headed to the Ramada-Burntwood Hotel. Police don't know for certain if Lissa picked up any passengers at the Thompson Arena or actually stopped at the hotel.
The RCMP believe that at around 12:30 a.m., she was driving with passengers in her cab. She drove into the back parking lot behind the City Centre Mall. She was attacked and killed by her passengers and was left lying on the ground outside her cab. Karpish said no charges have been laid.
Milton Chaboyer said he now fears he will grow old never knowing who killed his daughter.
"I'm 67 now and I don't want to live with this for the rest of my life. It is just something you can't put to bed. It's with us all the time. We don't know the real reason it happened. Hopefully, we'll know one day."
Milton Chaboyer is offering a $5,000 reward for anyone with information that can lead to an arrest in the case, and anyone with information on it can contact Thompson RCMP at 204-677-6909 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222- 8477 (TIPS).

I'm home from the 3rd Unlock The Past cruise 2013 and even though I picked up a cold on my way home (thanks Sydney!!) I am buzzing with all the things I've heard, seen and experienced. I'm sure it will take many weeks to process it all, but I have a list of things I must do and look at, and I keep thinking of new additions for the list.
Let's start with the ship, the Voyager of the Seas is huge, it seemed to dwarf the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. It holds 3,500 passengers and crew so it is almost a floating village. I wouldn't go on a cruise on this ship if it wasn't a genealogy cruise, it's aimed at families and teenagers not someone who isn't interested in swimming pools, casinos or Disney Parades, although I must say Shrek & Princess Fiona were nice to talk to whilst waiting for the lift!!
Having said that it was ideal for a genealogy conference. An area situated in a quiet part of the ship that could be configured into one to four rooms plus overhead projector screen, microphones etc. all made for a professional set-up. We had a large, medium and small room set-up which worked well, although one of my talks in the medium room was standing room only (she says with pride !!).
I met so many great people on this cruise from the ladies that I dined with every night to the speakers to the Gould Books team to all the 140+ participants. Thank you all for your company over the nine days
So what did I learn? Here is a quick run down of just some of the information, hints and tips that I got from the conference. I shall be posting more in-depth articles later.
Paul Milner – His talk on Irish Land Records inspired me to get researching my Pottingers in Belfast, not a direct line, but very interesting people. Paul also reminded us that we should all be rereading our beginners genealogy books again and again as there is always something new to be learnt from them.
Jill Ball – Jill gave a total of nine talks on technology and genealogy. I was inspired by her talk on the Flip-Pal Scanner to buy the last one that Gould Books had on their sales table on the ship. I shall have to explore the tools that Google has to offer for social media, expand my Genealogy Circle on Google+, have a go at running a Google Hang Out and I shall be talking to my local genealogy group about them having their own blog.
Shauna Hicks – Shauna spoke on Australian genealogy, I learnt a lot more about sources I can look at for my Aussie ancestors, I don't have a lot, but the chance of looking at some new types of records is irresistible. Shauna also instructed us to go get a State Library card and also to register with Trove, the great Australian Newspaper Archive website. I had one day free in Sydney on my way back so spent the afternoon registering for my NSW State Library card, that fact I didn't live in Australia didn't matter, two forms of ID – passport & Visa card – and I got my card. The staff in the Mitchell Library were great and in no time I was looking at a set of letters written by Joseph & Robert Mason who were friends and fellow rioters to my Diddams & Silcock ancestors. I have registered with Trove and will take the time to explore the vast amount of info that the site has available.
Would I go again on an Unlock The Past Genealogy Cruise? You bet ya !!
That's all for now, I must attend to the over 100 emails that I have sitting in my inbox and then go out and buy some tissues, cough mixture and throat lozenges !!

After a now-customary period of rumors, leaks, and anecdotal evidence, Apple's new generation of MacBook Pro laptops has arrived. And though these new models may look the same as the ones they replace, the changes under the hood are some of the most far-reaching in the history of the MacBook Pro brand.
The 15-inch MacBook Pro moves from Intel's original Core i-series CPUs to the latest second-generation chips, formerly code-named Sandy Bridge. Not only that, you can forget about seeing an Intel Core i5 CPU in your 15-inch (or 17-inch) MacBook Pro--these use high-end quad-core Core i7 chips now. Our step-up $2,199 review unit had a 2.2GHz quad-core i7, with 4GB of RAM and a huge 750GB hard drive (at only 5,400rpm, however).
The biggest surprise is the 15-inch MacBook Pro's graphics processor. Instead of the Nvidia GeForce 330M graphics card previously found in these systems, the GPUs now come from Nvidia's longtime rival AMD. The base 15-inch model has an AMD Radeon HD 6490M, and our review unit had an even faster 6750M. With Intel's improved integrated graphics in the 13-inch models, that means that Nvidia has been completely ousted from the MacBook Pro line.
The iconic unibody aluminum construction remains, as does the large glass multitouch trackpad. Most of the ports and connections also remain the same, with one very notable new addition. Where the Mini DisplayPort connection used to be, now an identically sized port is marked with a lightning-bolt icon. That's for Thunderbolt, Intel's new high-speed powered-port technology for data transfer and displays. The Thunderbolt tech is envisioned as a sort of future unified successor to USB, FireWire, and DisplayPort, allowing peripherals to carry data and video at 10Gbps (in the video above, we may have had a slip of the tongue and said Mbps, but we meant Gbps).
For now, at least, that promise is hypothetical. We have very little idea of exactly when Thunderbolt-compatible peripherals will be available (although Apple says the first ones should show up in the spring of 2011), how much they'll cost, or if Apple will be adding the technology to future displays or iOS devices. For now, it's a wait-and-see gamble on a future technology.
The lowest-cost 15-inch MacBook Pro is still $1,799, following the usual Apple trajectory of keeping the price steady but adding faster, more powerful components. While we're still waiting for oft-requested extras such as HDMI, Blu-ray, and 3G, the speed and power of these new quad-core Core i7 CPUs is extremely impressive, and leaves even other recent MacBook Pros in the dust.
|Price as reviewed
|2.2GHz Intel Core i7 quad-core
|4GB, 1,066MHz DDR3
|Hard drive
|750GB 5,400rpm
|Intel H67
|AMD Radeon HD 6750M / Intel HD 3000
|Operating system
|OS X 10.6.6 Snow Leopard
|Dimensions (WD)
|14.4x9.8 inches
|0.95 inch
|Screen size (diagonal)
|17.3 inches
|System weight / Weight with AC adapter
|5.5/6.2 pounds
By now, the shape and size of the MacBook Pro should be very familiar. Even more recent Apple designs, such as the second-generation MacBook Air, are basically just variations on it. The core building block remains the same: a solid block of aluminum, which is carved down into a shell with support struts. This unibody chassis has the benefit of being thin (for a 15-inch laptop), but strong and flex-free at the same time.
The touch philosophy that informs the iPad/iPhone line of devices can be said to have its roots in the large multitouch clickpad-style trackpad that's been a staple of the MacBook Pro for years. Of the multitouch gestures, our favorite is sweeping up or down with four fingers to show or hide all your active windows. Once you get used to that, going back to a regular touch pad is difficult. A few new gestures are apparently coming to the next version of OS X, but you won't see those until this summer.
Several Windows laptops have added larger clickpads over the past year or so, with similar multitouch gestures, but we can easily say that none can yet compete with the MacBook Pro's implementation.
The 1,440x900-pixel display is still a higher resolution than many 15-inch laptops (many of which are 1,366x768 pixels), and two screen upgrades are available: a 1,680x1,050-pixel-resolution version for an extra $100, or a 1,680x1,050-pixel-resolution "antiglare" version for $150. That's a lot more flexibility than the 13-inch MacBook Pro, which still doesn't have a glare-free or higher-resolution screen option (even though the current 13-inch MacBook Air has a stock 1,440x900-pixel resolution).
|Apple MacBook Pro, 15-inch
|Average for category [midsize]
|Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt I/O
|VGA plus HDMI or DisplayPort
|Stereo speakers, headphone/microphone jacks
|Stereo speakers, headphone/microphone jacks
|2 USB 2.0, FireWire 800, SD card reader
|4 USB 2.0, SD card reader, eSATA
|Ethernet, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth
|Ethernet, 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, optional mobile broadband
|Optical drive
|DVD burner
|DVD burner
The big story in the ports and connections category is the new port based on Intel's Thunderbolt high-speed I/O technology. If it looks a lot like the Mini DisplayPort connection on previous MacBook Pros, that's because it is the same, except for the tiny lightning bolt logo next to it. It still functions as a DisplayPort output, and, in fact, you'll be able to daisy-chain up to six Thunderbolt devices or displays to that single port.
While there aren't any Thunderbolt peripherals available yet, we did get to see a demo of a prototype RAID product when we met with Apple, and the performance passing multiple uncompressed HD video streams was impressive. Thunderbolt is technically capable of 10Gbps bidirectional transfer, and if Intel and Apple have their way, it may replace many other kinds of ports and connections in the future.
Also notable on the new MacBook Pro is a 720p Webcam, which works with the new Mac version of FaceTime, the same video-conferencing application found on the iPhone 4 and iPod Touch. With a solid Wi-Fi signal, jumping into full-screen mode was clear and mostly stutter-free. There's also an onscreen button for changing the video window from portrait mode to horizontal, and video calls can be made between MacBooks and iPhones as well. You can read more about FaceTime for Mac in this hands-on. It's also worth noting that the SD card slot is now SDXC-compatible, meaning it will work with higher-capacity SD cards.
But while Thunderbolt and FaceTime are interesting extras, the real muscle behind the new MacBook Pro is the quad-core Intel Core i7 CPU and AMD Radeon HD 6750M GPU. In our CNET Labs benchmark tests, it absolutely clobbers the competition, including last year's 15-inch MacBook Pro, which had a first-gen Intel Core i7, and other high-end midsize laptops, such as a Core i7 Alienware M15x.
To be sure, once more systems with these new Intel processors hit the streets, the competitive gap will close up significantly, but for now, this is the fastest laptop we've tested.
The switch from Nvidia to AMD in the graphics department came as a surprise. The AMD Radeon HD 6750M in our review unit is one of the better GPUs you can cram into a laptop right now. The less-expensive base-model 15-inch version of the MacBook Pro includes a still-good Radeon 6490M. As with the last generation of MacBook Pros, the discrete graphics automatically share the workload with the integrated Intel graphics as needed, saving battery life as you go.

MOUNT VERNON — The body of a girl who died of hypothermia in the rain outside a Sedro-Woolley home will be exhumed in an attempt to determine her age.
Hana Williams was believed to be 13 when she died in May of 2011, but her age was uncertain because she was adopted in 2008 from Ethiopia.
The Skagit Valley Herald reported that her age would make a difference in homicide by abuse charges against her parents. The charge applies only to victims under 16.
A judge ordered the grave to be opened at a hearing Wednesday in Mount Vernon where Larry and Carri Williams pleaded not guilty to all charges against them. They include manslaughter, which would apply regardless of age. The two also are charged with child assault of an adopted son.

I need to capture all lines that start C: and end in

i am struggling to match the end

i wish to do preg_match_all can any one help?
Can you give us an example of a string you want to match and not match?
cheers dude
the line would look like
C: server port username passwordC: myserver.no-ip.org 12000 admin admin
they are an example
Are you talking break tags or newlnes/carriage returns or all?
You surely want .*? instead...
id like it so that it would just literally match any line that looked like
C: myserver.no-ip.org 12000 admin admin
and it ignore after the last bit with the

I found a solution i think now ill post the solution later for any one else looking for something similar
I think you're getting confused between
 tags and newlines (\).
Something like ^C:.*?$ should do the trick.
I'm not familiar enough with PHP syntax to write something off the top of my head, but in Ruby it would be:
str = "
C: myserver.no-ip.org 12000 admin admin
Some other stuff
C: myserver.no-ip.org 12000 admin admin
p str.scan(/^C:.*?$/)
=> ["C: myserver.no-ip.org 12000 admin admin", "C: myserver.no-ip.org 12000 admin admin"]
many thanks i will give this a go
thank you everyone for your help!

As an indicator of the continued economic recovery of the materials handling, supply chain and logistics industry, U.S. and international attendees registered in record numbers for ProMat 2011—the industry's premier North American trade event. The show and conference is sponsored by the Material Handling Industry of America (MHIA).
Nearly 32,000 key decision makers in virtually all manufacturing, logistics, distribution and supply chain industries participated in ProMat 2011. Reflecting the growing global nature of the event, attendees from outside the United States at this year's ProMat represented 110 countries and six continents. They were welcomed by ProMat's International Visitors Center. ProMat 2011 was held in Chicago's McCormick Place from March 21 to 24.
"By all accounts, ProMat 2011 met, and in many cases exceeded, exhibitors' and attendees' expectations. Attendees were engaged and exhibitors expressed satisfaction with the quantity and quality of attendees," said John Nofsinger, CEO of MHIA.
According to Nofsinger, "manufacturing and supply chain professionals were greeted with a remarkable display of traditional, new and emerging equipment and technology solutions that are key to their productivity and profitability."
The show featured 677 exhibitors covering 270,000 net square feet. These exhibitors saw a 33% increase in attendee leads over ProMat 2009, indicating not only an increase in attendee quantity, but also in quality and intention to engage with exhibitors and their solutions. "Participants came with very specific objectives and with buying plans totaling $75 billion over the next 18 months. They know that investing in the latest equipment and technology is the key to building and maintaining their competitive edge," added Nofsinger.
Other ProMat 2011 Highlights
Along with the healthy traffic on the show floor, other highlights of ProMat 2011 included the educational conference that accompanied the ProMat exhibition. This included two keynotes featuring former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge and Robonaut 2, two educational tracks on sustainability and the people side of the supply chain and show floor educational sessions on a variety of topics. More than 7,000 attended ProMat 2011 educational conference sessions. Webinars of ProMat 2011 educational seminars are now available online at http://www.promatshow.com/seminars.
The ProMat 2011 Classroom Day introduced students and educators to career opportunities in material handling, supply chain and logistics through hands-on learning and networking with industry professionals. This year's Classroom Day combined an interactive educational session with a dynamic guided tour of North America's premier materials handling, supply chain and logistics exhibition.
The next MHIA-sponsored trade event will be Modex 2012, February 6-9, 2012 in Atlanta's Georgia World Congress Center. For more information, visit http://www.MODEXShow.com.
ProMat 2011 will be held March 21 - 24, 2011 at McCormick Place South in Chicago. The tradeshow will showcase the latest manufacturing, distribution and supply chain solutions in the material handling and logistics industry.

Which 2013 Album Are You Anticipating Most? – Readers Poll
2013 is shaping up to be a great year for music already. There are a lot of amazing new albums due out in 2013, and we're eagerly awaiting the arrival of fresh tunes from a number of our favorite international divas, teen queens, boy bands, Brits, and big-time rappers. We've narrowed down the list of new releases for 2013 and we want to know which album you're most excited about!
While many of the 2013 LPs remain unconfirmed, being that they are still in the developmental stages and/or are in the process of recording, it's pretty much certain that Beyonce, Britney Spears, Mariah Carey, Katy Perry, Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus and Avril Lavigne will dish out a serving of fresh jams this year. While all of these names have our ears perking, we cannot wait to hear what Beyonce, Brit, Mariah and Miley have in store, mostly because everything Bey and Brit touches turns to gold, and Mariah and Miley haven't released new material in quite some time, so we're anxious to see how their sound has morphed over these years.
The aforementioned vocalists may have 'TBA' as their titles for now, but one album name that has been confirmed is Lady Gaga's highly-anticipated 'ARTPOP.' Mama Monster has been teasing her latest musical masterpiece for months now, and the two-volume, "risky" LP is sure to be intriguing (Gaga called it an "assault on your ears ) and one of the biggest releases of 2013.
Another superstar artist that has confirmed their album title is Justin Bieber, who is dropping the acoustic version of his 'Believe' LP in Jan. 2013. And speaking of heartthrobs… Jonas Brothers have a new album due out 2013, which will likely include new songs like 'Wedding Bells' (which they wrote about Miley Cyrus). Also joining the list of boy bands with new albums in 2013 are five-piece British-Irish act the Wanted, who will drop 'Third Strike' in 2013, as well as Backstreet Boys, who have reunited and will unleash their first album as a quintet since 2005!
Additionally, you can expect fresh tunes from Paramore (their self-titled LP expected to drop in April 2013), Jessie J, Rita Ora, ASAP Rocky ('LongLiveAsap' will be officially released in Jan. 2013), Nicki Minaj ('Pink Friday: The Pinkprint'), Azealia Banks ('Broke With Expensive Taste') and Lil Wayne ('I Am Not a Human Being II'). Finally, we'd be surprised not to hear a new batch of tracks from Eminem, Jay-Z and Kanye West, who have all been in the studio as of late.
Check out this list of upcoming releases for 2013 and vote for the artist you're most excited to hear new songs from!

Shaun Marsh has dramatically re-entered contention to restart his Test career in South Africa after regaining his place on Australia's touring squad because of Shane Watson's injury.
The 30-year-old was part of Australia's original 15-man squad for the three-Test series but was withdrawn on January 30 - Phillip Hughes replaced him - because selectors doubted he would recover from a calf strain he suffered earlier in that week.

Shane Watson out of First Test
Australian selectors have a couple of decisions to make ahead of the First Test against South Africa, with Shane Watson out with a calf injury. Nine News.
Selectors' rationale for withdrawing Marsh at that stage is that he would not be fit for Australia's only tour match, starting last Wednesday. Once that match was washed out Australia did not play until an intra-squad match on Friday in Johannesburg. At virtually the same time that match began Marsh was back in Perth making his comeback in the final of the Big Bash League, scoring an unbeaten 63 in the Scorchers' victory.
The trigger for Marsh's recall to the squad was the inability of Watson to pass a fitness Test on Saturday. Once he was ruled out, for at least the first Test but quite possibly more, selectors contacted Marsh and instructed him to fly to South Africa as soon as possible.
"Shaun has now recovered from injury and the National Selection Panel has selected him to join the squad in South Africa in light of Shane Watson not being available for the first Test with a calf injury," chief selector John Inverarity said in a statement.
Marsh's arrival means Australia will have four candidates to fill two batting vacancies for Wednesday's first Test at Centurion: original squad members Marsh and Alex Doolan and replacement players Hughes and Moises Henriques (who replaced fellow all-rounder James Faulkner, who is recovering from knee surgery).
Marsh has played only once against South Africa, making a stoic 44 at Cape Town in late 2011 when he was severely hampered by a back injury.
Watson hurt his right calf about a week ago in Potchefstroom but has since been nursed by the team. The first confirmation of his injury came on Friday when the team said he would not bowl in its intra-squad match on Friday, but was on track to bowl before the series began.
Watson made 34 playing as a specialist batsman on Friday, a score only exceeded by Hughes, but nevertheless had to do more to prove his capability of facing the Proteas on Wednesday. He was made to run at a higher intensity as the team trained at the Wanderers Stadium. Once he was unable to do so he was ruled out, with team doctor Peter Brukner and physiotherapist Alex Koutnrouris judging he would be not be fit to play even as a batsman.
"He batted yesterday and was fine, and we've been building up his intensity. Today we were trying to get him up to match level ... and he struggled with that today. He could feel it," Kountouris said on Saturday.
"We just don't think he he's going to be right for the first Test.
"We need a few more days now to let him recover and start up again."
Kountouris said a scan of Watson's right calf had confirmed the injury, although he insisted it was not a strain.
"It's not a tear, but he has got an injury there. We've had a scan and it showed he's got a low-grade muscle injury that we've been managing," he said. "We were hopeful he'd recover, but it needed to be a little bit more advanced than what it is at the moment."
Kountouris did, however, concede Watson's unfavourable record of suffering soft-tissue injuries could make for a longer-than-hoped recovery period.
"He's had these before . . . they can take a short period of time or they can taken an extended period of time. In this case it's looking like it's going to be a little bit longer," he said.
Watson is unlikely to run for at least the next three days, to give his calf time to recover. He said the hierarchy were hoping to get him fir for the second Test which begins on February 20, but conceded even an appearance there would likely be as a batsman only because of the "lag" involved in getting him right to bowl as well as bat.
"You've just to got to go gradually. if he feels it you've got to stop again. Trying to manage it is a balancing act," Kountouris said.
"Hopefully he gets to the point where he's able to train unrestricted by two or three days' out [from the Test], which is what we were planning to do here, and then being able to reproduce that two or three times and be confident he can get through a game. "There is usually a bit of a lag [until he can bowl again], because running [in the field] and running between the wickets is generally a bit easier than bowling. It'll be a four or five-day lag.
"Our first priority is to try and get him back as a batter, give the selectors that option."
If there is a setback in Watson's recuperation he could very easily miss the entire series, as there is only a three-day gap after the first Test and a four-day gap after the second.
Kountouris said Watson, 32, was "very disappointed" by this latest injury setback.
"We were very happy we got everyone through the past Ashes, and 'Watto' himself hasn't missed a game [due to injury] for a very long time," he said. "It's disappointing, but it's part of the game."

1) Well, there goes my Rangers in 5 prediction. Back to Kanata Monday. Yee-freakin-hah!
2) This has been an odd series, IMO, in that I thought Ottawa's best game start to finish was Game 3, a game the Senators lost, and one of those many, many games this season that could have gone either way and went the Rangers way.
3) That said, the Rangers — and every other team that plays playoff hockey — sing the mantra about how "we expect that they will get better each game, and so we have to get better, too." And I think, though that hasn't proven to be completely true in this series, that Ottawa has gotten better as the series has gone on, and the Rangers haven't gotten much better, if at all. I don't think they've played, except for the first part of Game 1, anywhere near their best yet. They'd better hurry now.
4) The Senators are 2-0 in games Matt Carkner plays. Just proves how usesless stats are. Carkner nearly cost them Game 2 by himself, and the Senators ended up winning despite him, and long after he had been kicked out of the game. And he had a huge hand in the Game 4 win with that assist out of the penalty box. And he made a smart play by delaying coming out of the box, though I'm not sure why he did it, so that he hopped out just as the puck was arriving, and in stride. I still say he stepped in carcillo and was extremely lucky there, because he had taken a dreadful penalty in the first place and Marc Staal nearly put the game away on the power play just before Carkner was released. He also made a nice pass. So credit where it's due. I think he was a complete non-factor otherwise.
5) Now, about Zenon Konopka. I still say Paul MacLean messed up big-time in not using Konopka or Carkner in Game 1 and trying to beat the Rangers with a soft lineup, it it still might end up costing the Senators the series. But since Konopka was re-inserted, he and Chris Neil have created havoc around Henrik Lundqvist and along the walls. I think the Rangers have handled them well, but they have had to pay them a lot 0f attention, and expend a lot of energy doing it.
6) That sure was a shocking start for the power play, wasn't it? The Rangers were 25-2-4 when they scored PPGs during the season. They are 0-2 when they score PPGs in the playoffs.
7) A lot of times I've noticed Marian Gaborik taking off, and then noticed that he's playing against the fastest defenseman in the league in Erik Karlsson. I think that has hampered Gaborik some, and so has Filip Kuba, and so has not having Carl Hagelin for the last two games (and Game 5). So last night the GAS line was reunited, as was the Brandon Dubinsky-Brad Richards-Ryan Callahan line.
8) John Tortorella kind of piled it on Artem Anisimov for taking that penalty that led to the Senators' first goal. Not defending Anisimov, but if they do a better chance around the net on the shot by Sergei Gonchar, maybe we don't even remember the Anisimov penalty. And he wasn't the only guy to take one.
9) That Marc Staal hit on Jason Spezza … I'm not sure what part of Staal's arm or shoulder hot Spezza, and it sure wasn't a high hit, because Spezza's head was low and going lower. But the fact is, the point of contact was the head, and so I'm not sure he won't be hearing from Brendan Shanahan today. Then again, I'm not sure anymore at all what is a penalty, what isn't, what's deserving supplemental discipline, what isn't.
10) Chris Kreider, in his very few shifts, sure showed off his wheels in this game, didn't he? Used them like Hagelin, in a defensive way, and in a way to force a play by the Senators. And he had another really good scoring chance. That said, I don't know if he plays beyond Game 5, after which Hagelin comes back.
11) The Senators finally contained Brian Boyle.
12) Speaking of dumb penalties, how stupid was the slew foot by Nick Foligno against Ryan Callahan at that stage of the game?
13) Sometimes I believe stuff just happens and that you don't draw conclusions. The fact that Henrik Lundqvist has lost seven straight OT games in the playoffs is one of those. IMO, it doesn't way anything negative about Lundqvist other than maybe he's been in an unusual, maybe inexplicable bad-luck streak. But I think if it goes on much longer, it could be a problem.
14) What was more unbelievable last nght? That Philly allowed 10 goals? Or that the game didn't deteriorate into another fight-fest? Also, does anybody think it's not possible for Pittsburgh and/or Vancouver to come back from 0-3? Two years ago, Philly came back from 0-3 and won a series. Last year two teams — Chicago and Detroit — fell behind 0-3 and ended up forcing a Game 7. The Blackhawks lost Game 7 to Vancouver in OT, the Red Wings lost Game 7 to San Jose 3-2.

Kobe Bryant has been voted to his NBA-record 15th consecutive All-Star start, leading four Los Angeles players into next month's game.
Lakers teammate Dwight Howard and the Clippers' Chris Paul and Blake Griffin will join Bryant in the Western Conference lineup for the Feb. 17 game in Houston. Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant, the MVP of last year's game, rounds out the five.
Kevin Garnett held off Chris Bosh in fan balloting, giving the East two Boston Celtics and two Miami Heat players. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade will represent the defending champions and receive passes from Rajon Rondo. New York's Carmelo Anthony is the other starter.
Bryant finished with 1,591,437 votes, edging James by about 7,800 to finish as the leading vote-getter and break a tie with Shaquille O'Neal, Jerry West and Karl Malone for the most consecutive starting nods.
Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge -- who played in his first All-Star Game last season -- finished 11th in the Western Conference frontcourt ballot with 160,197 votes.
Former Lake Oswego High School star Kevin Love was sixth in frontcourt votes with 283,458. Love played in the last two All-Star Games, but is out with a fractured hand that has sidelined him for 17 games.

I rarely leave feedback on these forums, but these guys really deserve it. Our kitchen tiling and painting was done to an excellent standard. Our decorator put dust sheets on everything, taped up areas so nothing was painted that shouldn't have been. He hoovered, and placed everything back that he'd moved at the end of each day. He even sent us photos of progress! Would highly recommend and be happy to ask them to come back in the future. Thank you!

First impressions were that they seemed a little slow, it quickly became apparent that they were in fact perfectionists.The end result was genuinely outstanding and I am delighted with their work. True craftsmen.They took their time because they were meticulous; not slow.The job manager was excellent, polite and friendly; and while the tilers were brilliant, I'd suggest John learns 'hello', 'thank you' and how to crack a smile though ;)
I highly recommend these guys first class work and an excellent team. On time as promised and very respectful in all ways.
