In light of the recent events in Newtown, Conn., not to mention the other mass shootings within just the past year, I'm concerned about how appropriate it is that the taxpayers of Salt Lake County host the Crossroads of the West Gun Show in the publicly owned Southtowne Expo Center in Sandy.
This event is a recurring one, which has been held over the last several years at Southtowne and previously at the Salt Palace. While "traditional" firearms are bought and sold at this event, there's no mistaking that assault rifles and high capacity clips are also sold to the public with no need for a background check of any kind.
If we, as a society, truly wish to change things, we should start by not hosting such traveling bazaars of death at our facilities.

ARTS CORNER: Saying farewell to the penny
On Feb. 4 the lowly penny will drop out of circulation after 155 years of weighing down your pockets.
Apparently the cost to the Royal Canadian Mint to make and distribute a penny now exceeds its value.
But what of the penny's worth in our society, and what of the many robust references the penny has given to us?
Think of some of those connections as we mourn the lowly penny's demise: Pretty penny, bad penny; penny saved is a penny earned; the penny drops; penny arcade; penny stocks; find a lucky penny; penny loafers and so on.
Or in artistic terms: the Three Penny Opera comes to mind.
This is a Kurt Weill opera which spawned the well-known and oft-covered jazz standard, Mack the Knife, as recorded variously by Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and more recently by Michael Bublé.
All of this musical art derived from the lowly penny!
Artists and coins have a long connection and history in our country.
For example, the 1967 Centennial penny featured an image of a rock dove in flight with a maple branch in its beak.
The famous Canadian artist, Alex Colville, designed this image.
Many versions of the Queen's profile and image have been contributed by other Canadian artists too numerous to mention but all have some version of maple leaves, our proud symbol in Canada.
Where will the maple leaf be seen after the penny is dropped?
Think about it: sale items won't be listed at $9.99, or $29.99 ever again as rounding will now occur to the nearest five cents.
Without the penny we will lose the meaning of "$1.49 Day, Tuesday…", the Woodwards jingle penned by New Westminster's very own Tony Antonias, a lifetime member of the New Westminster Arts Council.
According to the Canadian Mint, side by side all of the pennies minted since 1858 would circle the globe 16 times! Useful trivia, but the Desjardins Group actually estimates there are 20 billion pennies laying in piggy banks and jars.
That's a lot of coin, so consider this: The arts and artists in Canada knew how to celebrate the penny.
It's time to celebrate the arts and give your pennies back. Think about donating your pennies to a charity of your choice. The arts are a good start!
We'll call them Pennies From Heaven!
• Rick Carswell is president of the Arts Council of New Westminster.

Pope Francis Russian Orthodox
Published: February 13, 2016
Pope Francis Russian Orthodox, In their joint declaration, the Pope and patriarch touted their historic conclave as an "indispensable" example of civility for a world riven by violence, poverty and sectarian strife.
"In a world which yearns not only for our words but also for tangible gestures, may this meeting be a sign of hope for all people of goodwill!"
The joint declaration did not specifically cite the agreement reached on Thursday by Russia and the United States, among other nations, to "cease hostilities" in Syria, the site of a devastating civil war.
But in a possible reference to Iranian and Saudi Arabian factions fighting a proxy war in the Middle East, Francis and Kirill urged all parties involved in the conflicts "to demonstrate goodwill and to take part in the negotiating table."
The meeting is a diplomatic victory for Francis, who has made door-opening dialogue a prominent feature of his foreign policy. But it also carries some risks. Critics have warned that Kirill and Russian President Vladimir Putin, who are close, will use the Pope to boost their profile among Orthodox Christians and popularity in the West.
"The meeting takes place against the backdrop of current Russian military, political, and propagandist actions," said Yury Avvakumov, assistant professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame. "At this moment, it would be useful for Russian leaders to have any public figure who would approach Russia with a 'business as usual' attitude."
Still, many Catholics and Orthodox Christians hailed the meeting and joint declaration as significant steps toward strengthening ties between their traditions, which separated in 1054 after the Great Schism. (Also called the East-West Schism, the split was over theology and the primacy of the pope, whom the Orthodox do not consider the supreme leader of Christianity.)
Patriarch Kirill is not the leader of Orthodox Christianity, a title that technically belongs to Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, who is based in Constantinople and has met with Pope Francis and his predecessors several times. But with a flock of 150 million followers, Kirill leads the biggest, and in some ways the most defiant, branch of Orthodoxy.
The Vatican had tried for decades to meet with Russian patriarchs, amplifying their efforts after the fall of the Soviet Union in the 1990s. But Orthodox leaders accused Catholics of trying to encroach on their turf by planting new churches in Russia and former Soviet satellite countries.
Friday's joint declaration delicately alludes to the tensions between the churches, noting that Orthodox Christians and Catholics "have been divided by wounds caused by old and recent conflicts." But the Pope and patriarch said they were "pained by the loss of unity" among Christians, who have splintered into thousands of denominations since the schism in 1054.
Despite their differences, the vicious persecution of Christians in the Middle East and Africa by the Islamic State and other terrorists reportedly prompted the Russians to consider meeting with their Catholic counterparts.

Snippets and Vignettes: Quirky .GIFS from The Smithsonian Libraries2014-08-19 1 Share Tweet
Watch history literally come alive in these wonderful .gifs from the folks at the Smithsonian Libraries!
People tend to think of history as dull and, well, static, but the Smithsonian LIbraries just might change this longstanding perception with these works. Amid all the "semi-random stuff from the stacks of the Smithsonian Libraries" that can be found on their Tumblr page are a .gifs created using pages from centuries-old books!
These .gifs were created by Richard Naples of the Smithsonian's Scholarly Communications Department. Most of the .gifs were animated to go with each image's respective text, although there's a handful of playful ones, too – such as this and this incorporated with the popular "Deal With It" and "Doge" memes, respectively!
To see more of these amusing .gifs, head to the Smithsonian Libraries' Tumblr page!

text: The definition here should be read as particular to a US-American reading of community psychology. More specifically, it is probably a US-American reading of community psychology from a clinical psychological perspective. There are a number of other ways of defining community psychology which, as more community psychologists access this page, will hopefully be offered in the future. Presently, there are networks of community psychologists in Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe, North and South America, for example. Each network, in each continent, and in each country in each of those continents have particular historical, political and cultural interpretations of where community psychology originated, how it has developed, how it is presently constituted and how it might develop in the future. Indeed versions of what constitutes the course and content of community psychology are contested between as well as within countries, reflecting differing professional and political perspectives, socio-political histories and personal biographies. So, until a less US-American, clinically-oriented definition is offered, here is the US-American , clinically embedded definition of community psychology:

JOHN SMALLWOOD, Philadelphia Daily News
– Indianapolis Colts coach Jim Caldwell is the fourth African-American to guide a team to a Super Bowl, and it doesn't matter.
Former Colts coach Tony Dungy and Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith destroyed the NFL's last great myth about minorities when they met in Super Bowl XLI.
Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin reaffirmed that race has no significance in determining success when he joined Dungy as the second African-American to win a Super Bowl last January.
So now Caldwell being an African-American coach in a Super Bowl is no more significant than his becoming the fifth rookie head coach in a Super Bowl.
And wasn't that the purpose of the Rooney Rule when it was established by the NFL in 2003?

The Vancouver Canucks have just announced that Roberto Luongo has re-signed, to the tune of a 12-year deal! No word yet on the official dollar amount, but it was rumoured to be a $64 million dollar deal (that's $5.3 million per season). If that dollar figure is correct, it has the potential to do a lot of things.
This will make the Canucks more competitive in the short term, no question. Luongo is really a $7 million goalie. Having him on the hook for almost $2 million under market value will allow the Canucks to go out and sign a $6 million player instead of a $4 million player, which is significant. That's the difference between signing a 1st liner or a 2nd liner.
Short term is clear, but long term isn't as much. If Luongo plays out the balance of his contract, it will pay him $5.3 million per season until he is 42. I don't know of any goalie in NHL history that was worth that much money in his 40s. Of course if the salary cap goes down, this will be magnified, and if it goes up, this will be minimized.
The scenario that Mike Gillis is probably banking on though, is the scenario where Luongo is a bargain for the next 5-6 years, and retires at the point where he is no longer an elite goaltender. Luongo strikes me as the type that would do that anyway (how many elite goaltenders become backups at the end of their career?).

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/9/2012 (1789 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Sherri Hildebrandt is hoping her story will inspire others to take steps in the fight against breast cancer.
The St. Vital resident will be among those taking part in the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure on Sun., Sept. 30 at Shaw Park.
Hildebrandt, 53, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008 while studying human resource management at Red River College.
"I found the lump myself, had a mammogram and then a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. The next year was a whirlwind of three surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation," she said. "There were complications along the way and there were times I wanted to give up" she said.
But the married mother-of-three didn't give up. She graduated from her program in 2009 and channelled her experiences into a self-published book titled More than Enough: My Breast Cancer Story, released last year.
"I've always kept a journal and processed my thoughts by writing. So when I was diagnosed, I immediately started keeping a running account about what was happening and how I felt about it. I also started an email support group and kept them updated during my treatment year," Hildebrandt said.
"After my treatments were completed, writing about my experience was therapeutic and compiling it was a positive way of processing and recovering. I wanted to inspire others and use my experience to encourage anyone touched by cancer."
Hildebrandt, who is currently a casual resource co-ordinator in a regional health facility, said the book's target audience includes health care professionals and the loved ones of cancer sufferers.
"Every person involved in the treatment of cancer is a piece of the puzzle, but has little idea of what the patient has gone through prior to seeing them, and might not be aware of what goes on after the patient completes treatment," she said.
"And you want to do whatever it takes to make sure that all the women in your life will never need to fight this — daughters, granddaughters, sisters, mothers, girlfriends."
After her treatment, Hildebrandt was advised to start taking a drug called an aromatase inhibitor, which "comes with its own challenges."
"I was told I would need to be on it for five years and the countdown is on. But it's my best insurance and I'm not about to quit now," she said.
Hildebrandt's daughter, Lindsay Wright, said the event will be a real family affair.
Wright has been a team captain for the past five years. During her first year — when her mom was too sick to participate due to her treatment — Wright, and her sister Jessica Penner, both took part while eight months pregnant.
"My daughter, Briony, is almost four years old now, and she's only starting to understand this whole story," Wright said.
"Mostly, she just knows that she loves her Grandma. I catch myself at the most random, everyday moments just being overwhelmed by the sight of the two of them playing and giggling and just enjoying each other. Too many other families weren't as lucky as we were."
Hildebrandt's book is available at various Winnipeg stores, including McNally Robinson, and online locations. If ordered at sherrihildebrandt.com, $1 from every book sold will go to CancerCare Manitoba.

Pheasant hunting inequities outlined
All pheasant hunting opportunities aren't created equal.
Hunters, if given the choice, prefer to shoot pheasant roosters to hens, said Bob Boyd, the Pennsylvania Game Commission's wildlife services division chief and the man in charge of its pheasant propagation program.
"That's a no brainer," he said.
Yet, their chances to do that are better in some places than others.
The commission has a goal of raising 200,000 pheasants for stocking each year. This year, it's going to have about 220,000 to release, Boyd said.
Those birds are born at a male-to-female ratio of one-to-one. But, Boyd said, when it comes time to release them, they aren't distributed equally.
Currently, in six wildlife management units, hunters can shoot only cockbirds. Consequently, 100 percent of those stocked are roosters.
In the state's other 17 units, where either-sex hunting is legal — representing 73 percent of Pennsylvania's land mass and 65 percent of hunters — only 35 percent of the birds stocked are roosters.
That requires moving birds around, adds expense to the stocking program, causes additional mortality and is perceived by some as being unfair, Boyd said. The commission could avoid all that by changing the rules to allow for statewide either-sex hunting, which would give hunters a 60-40 mix of roosters to hens in all units, he added.
"Maybe it's time we think a little more seriously about this either-sex option, with the exception of the wild pheasant recovery areas," Boyd said.
Hunters are somewhat split on the idea.
According to a recent commission survey, 58 percent of pheasant hunters overall support the idea of either-sex pheasant hunting in areas without wild birds.
There's more support for that in areas that already have either-sex hunting than in areas without it, though. Sixty-two percent of hunters support it in the former, compared to 48 percent in the latter.
Count commissioner Jay Delaney among those opposed to the idea.
He said the board debated the idea of going to statewide either-sex hunting "extensively" last year. It rejected it, to protect any wild birds on the landscape, he noted. He hasn't changed his mind.
"I personally wouldn't support that," Delaney said.
Boyd said that, if staff were to propose a change, it might be during the agency's January meeting, when preliminary seasons and bag limits for 2015-16 will be outlined.

Metric Conversions states that 10 meters is equivalent to a distance of 10 yards plus 2.8084 feet. One meter is equal to 1 yard and 0.28084 feet.Continue Reading
According to Wikipedia, the yard measure was originally rather arbitrary and varied slightly from country to country. In 1959 Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States all agreed to one consistent measurement for the "international yard" as being equal to 0.9144 meters. Meters are not an arbitrary measurement. The meter was redefined in 1983 as being equal to the distance traveled by light in a vacuum over the course of 1/299,792,458 of a second.Learn more about Algebra

"For our August wedding, we have collected over 150 vintage glasses for our guests to drink their cocktails out of. We are inviting them to take the glasses home, and wanted a way of letting the caterers decipher between what goes back to the rental company and what stays. These stickers are perfect for the bottom of the glasses and they match our wedding invitations and color scheme."
"These adhesive gift tags added such a beautiful and personal touch to my shower gift favours! Great delivery speed! Highly recommended!"
"Although before we bought we thought it was a tag, printed in a hard paper, the product is beautiful and worth the purchase."
"I ordered these stickers to place on tags I purchased at a craft store. These turned out perfect! The size is great and the font is a good size too. I had ordered stickers elsewhere that were too small and the words were hard to read. These were perfect and really colorful! I'm putting these tags on small bottles that I will fill up with sand and give as wedding favors for our beach wedding. Turned out great!"
"The tags are beautiful and even better that pictured. They are also priced lower that any other I have seen. Excellent quality and value!"

My Steampunk Costume!
I've been promising this to you all for a loooong time now. But I've finally put the finishing touches to my Steampunk costume for the Weekend at the Asylum convention in Lincoln. And so, since I owe you loverly readers a huge thank you for supporting me over the last couple of years, for buying your copies of Not Before Bed, for commenting on here, retweeting on Twitter and 'liking' my Facebook page, here is your reward…
You get to see me in a bowler hat…
So what do you think? Punky enough for ya?
I'm a tri-virgin when it comes to cosplay, conventions and book signings, so the Asylum Weekend should be a really…interesting…experience. I'm so nervous about selling and signing Greaveburn, it's unbelievable. But hopefully, surrounded by my fellow Steampunks, I'll feel right at home in my costume.
In other news…work on the cover art for Greaveburn has begun. In the course of a couple of days our cover artist, Ravven Kitsune, has managed to go from my sketchy brief to a piece of work which is truly breathtaking. When I saw the prelims, I made a little squee of excitement. I can't wait to show it to you all. Watch out for the big reveal coming VERY soon!
Thanks for reading.

Looking the steampunk part Mr Hallam.
I'm looking forward to seeing the cover for Greaveburn. Glad you're liking the prelims.
June 9, 2012 at 4:37 pm
Hiya Pete. They thankfully cover a fair bit of my face, but I thought I'd leave them up on the hat this time around 😀
June 9, 2012 at 5:11 pm
I'll let you off 🙂
June 9, 2012 at 5:17 pm
I'll bring them along at the next meet-up 😀
June 9, 2012 at 5:27 pm
Excellent. I look forward to it. 🙂
June 9, 2012 at 6:40 pm
I think your costume looks great! I've been going to Steampunk and Anime conventions since I was sixteen, and you look like you'll be right at home. The effort people go to with their cosplay is always amazing, and this is going to sound quite dorky (who am I kidding, right?) but there's always a kind of fellowship at these things. It's really cool. I hope you have a great time!
June 10, 2012 at 11:10 am
Thanks Lorna. Much appreciated. If you make it to the Asylum Weekend, let me know! 😀
June 10, 2012 at 11:46 am
Will do! I'm definitely hoping to get there (:
June 10, 2012 at 1:11 pm
You're rocking the 'punk style – have a blast! 😉
June 10, 2012 at 1:13 pm
Yowza. 🙂
June 11, 2012 at 3:11 am
Thanks for the positive feedback, everyone! As always, you all make me feel better 🙂
June 11, 2012 at 6:33 am
I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my
own weblog and was wondering what all is needed to get set up?
I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I'm not very internet smart so I'm not 100% positive.
Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Getting driver's licence used to be as simple as not scaring the tester
Being a senior citizen driver with more than half a century of driving experience behind me, I am happy to not have to go through the "L" and "N" phases of driving.
It is good to know that "L" stands for learner and not for loser, and "N" stands for novice and not for nerd. I tell my grandchildren that I thought the "N" stood for neophyte or even Neanderthal.
I have held a driver's licence in New Brunswick, Quebec and British Columbia.
If you passed a basic written test – and the driver's test without scaring the life out of the tester – you passed.

Just a few days ago we showed you a video of AR game Pokemon Go, which was displayed during a panel discussion at SXSW headed by Niantic's CEO John Hanke. Niantic is the company that is partnering with Ninteno to produce Pokemon Go. Using your smartphone and an accessory that looks like a Pokeball, you become an actual Pokemon trainer looking to capture pocket monsters.
Once you snag a Pokemon in the wild, he is yours to trade and fight. To capture a Pokemon, you need to throw a Pokeball at it by tapping on your smartphone screen. But you are going to have to purchase a Pokeball at a PokéStop. The latter will be located at real life museums and other similar locations. Such stores will also sell Pokemon eggs that will hatch faster the more you walk. That gives you an incentive to stay on your feet and continue searching for Pokemon and other trainers.
Speaking of exploring, you will find AR Pokemon in areas related to the type of Pokemon that they are. For example, a water Pokemon like Squirtle will be more likely to appear in areas near you where there is water found. Bulbasaur, a grass-type Pokemon, will be more likely to appear in a forest. Pokemon Go allows you to work yourself up through the ranks and as you reach higher levels as a trainer, you will be allowed to catch more powerful creatures and obtain better tools like a Great Ball.
The Pokemon Go Plus accessory that we alluded to above is a wearable that has a tear drop design, but also looks like a Pokeball. This device will vibrate and light up when you are near a Pokemon.
Pokemon Go will be beta tested in Japan, and will be launched for iOS and Android in 2016.

Grow Your Own Avocado Plant
Posted by RYOBI Outdoor on 01/16/2015 at 9:21 AM in
Try something new this year - plant your own avocado tree!
Start the prep work now so come spring, your seedling will be ready to plant in the ground.
1. Remove the large brown pit from inside your avocado. Rinse the pit well and set it out to dry.
2. Push 4 toothpicks into the center of the seed (at its widest section). Put the toothpicks far enough in that they hold, but also so there is enough left to suspend the pit over a glass of water. The water should cover about an inch of the pit.
3. Put your water glass and seed in a warm place. Keep an eye on the water level to make sure it doesn't get too low.
4. In 2-6 weeks, roots and a stem will begin to sprout from the Read more
Look Before You Pump
Posted by RYOBI Outdoor on 01/16/2015 at 8:49 AM in Lawncare, Garden Talk, Outdoor Cleaning, Tutorials
Today, more than ever, it is important to pay attention to the type of gas you put in your small engine outdoor power equipment.
Ethanol is being added to fuel more frequently and in higher doses. Higher ethanol blends tend to be less expensive but they will really cause problems for your tools as time goes on. Would you rather save a little now and pay for it later, or pay a little more to have your tools running for much longer?
4 Facts About Ethanol:
1. Fuel with more than 10% ethanol can corrode metals and rubber that are found in your small engine. This causes the engine to break down quicker.
2. It is actually illegal to use gas with more than 10% ethanol in your small Read more
Organize Your Garage for 2015
Posted by RYOBI Outdoor on 12/29/2014 at 10:45 PM in Outdoor Cleaning
Get your shed or garage ready for your outdoor projects this year using 5 simple steps.
1. Take everything out of your garage. Go through all of your storage containers and boxes, to ensure that you need all of the items you're storing.
2. Set aside tools and items that you no longer need, no longer work, or need replacing. Sort your tools and items into piles to keep, donate and trash.
3. Of the tools you decide to keep, separate them so that similar/like tools are near each other. Organizing tools by project type will make your weekends easier.
4. Save space by hanging a pegboard on a wall in your garage or shed. This will allowed you to utilize your vertical space and Read more
6 Ways To Recycle Your Real Christmas Tree After The Holidays
Posted by RYOBI Outdoor on 12/23/2014 at 11:51 AM in Lawncare, Outdoor Cleaning, Tutorials
Don't just get rid of your real Christmas tree after the holidays - recycle it! Here are a few ideas of how you can use your tree after the presents are unwrapped and the new year has begun:
Pine needles are excellent mold free ground covering and work great for ground covering crops like strawberries.
Cut off the boughs from your tree and lay them over your perennial beds for extra cover/protection during the winter.
Cut your tree trunk into thin (about 1.5 inches) circles and then in half. Line your garden bed edge with the half circles for a decorative, natural touch.

DIY Place Settings // The Log Blog
Posted by RYOBI Outdoor on 11/05/2014 at 5:19 PM in Tutorials, DIY Inspirationchainsaw for home decor? ...but logs are everywhere this season. Lets face it: bringing outside in is in this year. So we put the RYOBI 40V Brushless Chainsaw to work creating some lovely log-inspired designs for the home. First project? Log sliver place settings!
This project couldn't get any easier. We used the RYOBI 40V Brushless Chainsaw to cut slivers of a dead, dry log that were each about 1" thick.
Then, we used the RYOBI 18V ONE+ Corner Cat Finish Sander to smooth the entire sliver. This took about 5 full minutes per log piece.
After just about 20-30 minutes of initially starting the project, we were ready to stain the wood. We followed Read more
The Great RYOBI Fall Fix Up
Posted by RYOBI Outdoor on 10/02/2014 at 9:28 AM in Lawncare, Outdoor Cleaning
It's that time of year again. It's that Monday-night-football, pumpkin-spice-everything, flannels-and-bonfires-and-apple-picking season. It's also time to prepare your outside oasis for the colder months. Use some of our Fall Fix Up tips and tools to help get your yard sweater-weather-ready!
1. Lightly trim branches close to the house. Be careful not to over do it, but trim your trees enough that they will be out of reach this winter. Keep in mind that branches hang lower with snowfall, and whip around in heavy winds. You can use a number of tools to accomplish trimming. Select a RYOBI Chainsaw based on your preference for cordless, corded or gas; the diameter of the branches Read more

Reposted from another radio-related board:
one point: when the most played song on CFNY is by nickelback and most played song on CHUM-FM is by bon jovi, you're going to have a harder time getting radioheads to tolerate these stations (which sell themselves as the two trendiest in town) ... in turn, less to squawk about in a forum.
from All Music Guide
Nickelback \"All the Right Reasons\"
by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
With their fourth album, All the Right Reasons, Nickelback ditches any pretense of being a grunge band and finally acknowledges they're a straight-up heavy rock band. Not that they've left the angst of grunge behind: they're a modern rock band living in a post-grunge world, so there's lots of tortured emotions threaded throughout the 11 songs here. But where their previous albums roiled with anger — their breakthrough \"How You Remind Me\" was not affectionate, it was snide and cynical — there's a surprisingly large sentimental streak running throughout All the Right Reasons, and it's not just limited to heart-on-sleeve power ballads like \"Far Away\" and \"Savin' Me,\" the latter being the latest entry in their soundalike sweepstakes. No, lead singer/songwriter Chad Kroeger is in a particularly pensive mood here, looking back fondly at his crazy times in high school on \"Photograph\" (\"Look at this photograph/Every time I do it makes me laugh/How did our eyes get so red?/And what the hell is on Joey's head?\"), lamenting the murder of Dimebag Darrell on \"Side of a Bullet\" (where a Dimebag solo is overdubbed), and, most touching of all, imagining \"the day when nobody died\" on \"If Everyone Cared\" (which would be brought about \"If everyone cared and nobody cried/If everyone loved and nobody lied\"). Appropriately enough for an album that finds Kroeger's emotional palette opening up, Nickelback try a few new things here, adding more pianos, keyboards, and acoustic guitars to not just their ballads, but a few of their big, anthemic rockers; they even sound a little bit light and limber on \"Someone That You're With,\" the fastest tune here and a bit of relief after all the heavy guitars. All this makes for a more varied Nickelback album, but it doesn't really change their essence. Sure, they stretch a little bit, but they still favor clumsy, plodding riffs, still incessantly rewrite the same chords and melody, still harmonize exactly the same way on every song, Kroeger still sounds as if he's singing with a hernia, he still writes shockingly stupid lines that make you long for the days of such subtle double-entendres as \"she's using her head again\" (such as \"She'd be pissed if she could see the parts of you that I've been kissing,\" \"It's just a little hard to leave/When you're going down on me\" — and, mind you, this album does not carry a Parental Advisory sticker, even though \"a**holes\" is prominently used in two songs), and despite the attempted sarcasm of \"Rockstar,\" he still shows no discernible sense of humor. Which means, despite all their newly developed relative nuances, Nickelback remain unchanged: they're still unspeakably awful.
Does the Edge have any credibility left after playing this band over and over?
From NOW magazine:
Despite being one of the most contrived and unimaginative bands, like, maybe ever, Nickelback are still one of Canada's biggest exports. Mystifying? Yes. A cruel joke by God? Perhaps. But since this is their third album, it's unlikely that they'll just #### off any time soon. And so Chad Kroeger and company have written another bunch of songs that sound like all the other songs they've ever written. Perpetually stuck in a mid-90s grunge mindset, they go through the motions with a slew of dull and limp riffs over top of by-the-numbers \"modern\" rock. Factor in Kroeger's ridiculously comical singing voice and lyrics that would embarrass most 14-year-olds and you have one of the most forgettable albums of the year.
broken social scene, evidently not being played on 102.1 (maybe featured now? i don't know) sold more in toronto last week than n-back (per soundscan) ... there's really no discussion to be had anymore.
instead of being something that would be pointed out in a newspaper, or discussed furiously amongst music fans (or, dare i say it, even mentioned on my website) it's just ... message board trivia, i guess.

They'll probably add [Broken Social Scene] now that they see there might be an appetite for it. It's how they operate these days...let other outlets break the artists, then play 'em when it's safe.
Damn straight. CHUM FM had Arcade Fire in rotation before Edge.

Welcome to Pet Detective, a new column where The Globe's Amberly McAteer will find answers to the health and behaviour problems of our four-legged friends. Send your questions to email@example.com (All questions will be published anonymously.)
The question: I admit it: I like to dress my dog in adorable, tiny outfits on the regular. My pug, Roxanne, gets a real kick out of it, and honestly it's about making her happy. I get a lot of flak from friends, family, and absolute strangers about what I'm doing – they say it's cruel and embarrassing. I love my girl – and honestly, I don't think I'm hurting anyone. Am I wrong?
The answer: Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight.
My initial reaction is much like Sting's message: Roxanne must stop dressing up. She's better than that.
Sure, my boxer Ruby has her own section of the hall closet dedicated to doggie rain wear, booties, hoodies and winter jackets – but this, I swear, is because she gets cold easily. None of it is for my own enjoyment. Certainly, dog-dressing is acceptable for practical, Canadian weather-fighting situations only. Anything else is intolerable.
And then, the Internet gave me something that would forever transform me: dogs in panty hose. Sounds ridiculous, tacky, humiliating, right? It is, all of that, but I laughed and laughed and laughed at these photos of dogs, happily lying there, adorned with women's stockings on their hind legs, their innocent expressions now somehow hilariously seductive.
And this story – about a service dog dressed in graduation garb – made me teary-eyed. My cold, cynical heart was melting – and I felt deeply conflicted about my new-found love of dressed-up dogs.
To make myself feel less alone, and to get a sense of why we love costumed dogs, I chat with my friend's new girlfriend, Mandi – I know two things about her: she has an affinity for all things Disney and owns a toy poodle named Fonz, whom she likes to dress in velour tracksuits.
"That might make me crazy, but I am who I am," she says.
A quick search through her Facebook profile reveals albums galore, starring the little curly fellow who also makes an "awesome lobster" and "excellent Jack Sparrow."
"For people like me," she explains, "they are little persons," adding that Fonz's outfits aren't hurting him, "and all it means is that the dog is well loved."
She insist Fonz is proud – "he walks differently!" – and when he's "nude," he can't look at himself in the mirror.
Can dogs really feel humiliation or pride, depending on their wardrobe?
"No no no no, dogs cannot feel shame," Dr. Stanley Coren tells me. The professor emeritus at the University of British Columbia has written many books about canine psychology, outlining exactly what our pooches can feel.
Dogs have the emotional maturity of a two to three-year-old human, Dr. Coren explains. They can feel basic emotions such as joy, fear, affection, anger, but will never progress into feelings of shame, guilt, or pride.
When you're reading "pride" into the tail-wagging at outfit, Dr. Coren – who admits to dressing his own dog in reindeer antlers every Dec. 25 – says that excitement is simply anticipation of affection.
"The dog knows that when they're in that tracksuit, they're likely to go outside, they like that, and everyone who meets them is going to give affection – so they're happy about that."
And the doctor raises an excellent point: "dogs are not four-footed people in fur coats," so it's important to recognize this behaviour is for human enjoyment only. "Some people are perfectly willing to spend $75 for two hours at a rock concert – that's no different than my $20 antlers, which make me laugh and make my family laugh for the same two hours."
So, there it is: put Roxanne in that dress, let her strut her tiny flat-faced self down the sidewalk – but it's for your enjoyment, not hers.
Roxanne, you don't care if it's wrong or if it's right.

World AIDS Day Events
Contributed by Kimberley Conrad on 11/14/03
The Ithaca College AIDS Working Group would like to encourage all members of the Ithaca community to take note and or attend the following events held in honor of World AIDS Day, Monday, December 1.
A film about AIDS in the world. A film about the way the world is. Not just a movie; a movement.
A Closer Walk is the first film to depict humankind's confrontation with the global AIDS epidemic. The documentary was conceived by Robert Bilheimer and the late Jonathan Mann and it was envisioned as a bridge between the international AIDS community and the general public. It is the first global film to describe not only the breadth and destructive power of the pandemic, but its underlying social causes as well.
Faculty are encouraged to post an announcement of this film in their classroom and to encourage students to attend.
Check out the world map in the display case of the Campus Center lobby. It will give you an indication on the number of HIV/AIDS cases across the world. It will include tips on how you can support World AIDS Day and ways to effectively tackle HIV on an international level!

Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida is planning to visit Vietnam at the end of June to build common cause on maritime security in the East and South China seas, government sources said Thursday.
Kishida will meet with Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minster Pham Binh Minh for talks on speeding up Japan's provision of patrol ships to Vietnam as China raises its assertiveness in the South China Sea, the sources said.
China has increased tensions in the area by deploying an oil rig off the Paracel Islands that are disputed with Vietnam, leading to clashes between Chinese and Vietnamese vessels.
Japan has its own problems in the East China Sea, where Beijing and Taipei claim the Senkaku Islands.

Facebook 4.0 for Android to offer new UI?
Other changes include a page title on the bar where the hamburger is now found. A search icon is added on the right of the screen, and there are now five icons underneath the bar for News Feed, friend requests, status updates, notifications, and menu. Since this is only a test version, it is unknown exactly which of these features will make it into the final version of the app. Clicking on the sourcelink will provide you with a link you can use to try to install the updated Facebook app on your Android phone.
If you're interested in seeing what the next update of the Facebook app could bring to Android users, check out the screenshots below.

Facebook needs to stop changing things every other week!!! I'm just getting used to the UI they've "forced" me to have now (because they stopped supporting the version of Facebook I was using).
7. kdealltheway (Posts: 94; Member since: 21 Oct 2012)
They've been using current UI for ages now...

16. maroboo (Posts: 1; Member since: 03 Jan 2014)
Wow Liee. who told you that you can not have KitKat without the softkeys? beside Facebook only allow few users with their GOOGLE account which UI should work, in other words; facebook messanger cheks your Google account to see whether they allowed you to get the new UI or not.
9. techsavvy.jaz (Posts: 161; Member since: 07 Feb 2012)
Android Police clearly states: "Unfortunately, the UI appears to be toggled server-side, where Facebook has control over who gets access. I am unable to see it even after installing the 4.0 APK. Chances are, you might not be able to see it either."
10. Cyberchum (Posts: 749; Member since: 24 Oct 2012)
Until they give me option to go all black, it'll stay frozen. My battery first before UI pleasure.

Still not tablet app ay?
12. JerryTime (Posts: 468; Member since: 09 Nov 2013)
I just wish they would fix how buggy their freaking app is, not update the UI.
13. Muayyad (Posts: 239; Member since: 05 Oct 2012)
facebook just needs support for ART. The way it works now is disaster.

Snowflake Wedding Cake
Cake for a wedding up at Crystal Mt. Champagne cake with bakers buttercream filling and fondant frosting, drapes and snowflakes. The snowflakes were colorflow but when I went to put them on the cake the weren't dry! 4 hours to go and no snowflakes...luckily I had a snowflake cookie cutter. It didn't turn out the way I'd planned, but at least I didn't mess up the wedding (I was a bit worried for a while there!)

Being that my Thai wife had zero experience driving on snow or ice when she came to the US/New England, I bought her a Subaru and mounted four, studded, Altimax Arctic tires on it. There's amazing acceleration traction, cornering stability and short stopping distances on snow and ice that allow her to drive just as if the roads were clear and dry. (For the record, she's a slow, cautious driver.) I would venture to say that the amazing traction and short stopping distances are about half due to Subaru and the other half due to the studded snow tires. (BTW - The Tire Rack is right when they recommend that you buy all four and mount them both front and rear: I attempted to stop in snow with the doughnut spare on one day and surprisingly slid twenty feet further than expected.) Your gas mileage will suffer a bit and the 'driving on rock salt' stud noise takes some getting used to, but the stud noise is only audible when driving at slow, parking lot speeds - It diminishes greatly at normal driving speeds. I recommend buying the snows mounted on steel rims as I did so that changing them over in the fall and spring will be a snap. Also, the plastic hubcaps are priced right, extremely well built and they do a nice job of dressing-up the steel wheels during the winter. I have very few miles on these snows and with the need to replace last winter's flat, I'm going to buy two more and keep one of the older snows as a spare so I'll have an immediate, matching spare in case of another flat tire while driving down 495 in a snowstorm. These tires are phenomenal and they get a perfect '10' rating across the board.

PHILADELPHIA (Oct. 20)
President Roosevelt, in a telegram from his special train to the 22nd annual convention of Hadassah, in session at the Benjamin Franklin Hotel here, lauded the women for "the fine humanitarian work" they are doing in Palestine.
"It seems to me," he said, "that Hadassah has made a sound, sensible approach to its problems by emphasizing the safeguarding of health. I refer particularly to the wise emphasis upon preventive medical work and hospitalization and nursing designed to promote mental and physical fitness.
"Any group enjoying social security fostered by good health and the knowledge that ill health will be combatted vigorously is strategically fitted to deal intelligently with problems that may arise. I trust that new ideas at the convention will prove useful in promoting the fine humanitarian work for the alleviation of human suffering in which you are engaged," the President declared.
Mrs. Edward Jacobs, president of Hadassah, reviewing the status of the Jews in Europe, said that "courage and the undaunted will to live will continue as the Jewish weapon for survival."
The treasure reported that the $600,000 Hadassah had raised for its health work this year was $225,000 more than the sum raised last year.
Contributions in cash and pledges amounting to $75,000 were made from the convention floor for the University-Hadassah-Rothschild medical center in Jerusalem. A total of $550,000 has been raised for the hospital to date, it was reported.
Mrs. Felix M. Warburg praised Hadassah's non-sectarian service in Palestine. A panel discussion on expanding Jewish education was led by Marvin Lowenthal.

Sales Skyrocket at United Refining
Company attributes 28 percent net sales increase to higher selling prices.
WARREN, Pa. -- United Refining Co., a regional refiner and marketer of petroleum products, showed a 28.1 percent increase in net sales for the third quarter ended May 31, 2005, with sales of $479.5 million, compared to $374.3 million for the prior year quarter.
Net sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 were $1,290.4 million, compared to $1,032.1 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 25.0 percent.
Increases in net sales for both the quarter and nine months ended May 31, 2005 were due primarily to increases in refined product selling prices attributed to increased worldwide crude oil prices, the company said.
Operating income for the three months ended May 31, 2005 was $19.0 million or an increase of $5.5 million from operating income of $13.5 million for the quarter ended May 31, 2004. Operating income for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 was $15.6 million, a decrease of $14.7 million from the $30.3 million in operating income for the nine months ended May 31, 2004.
In addition to a 65,000 barrel-per-day refinery in Warren, Pa., the company operates 373 Kwik Fill/Red Apple and Country Fair retail gasoline and convenience stores located primarily in western New York and western Pennsylvania.

DiVanityDesigns :: Spectrolite, Blue Quartz and Sterling Silver Knock 'Em Dead Earrings
Here are a pair of spectrolite earrings (tons of green flash in the nuggets and rondelles- you can see it best in the nugget on the left and in the last pic from my spectrolite necklace). The flash of these earrings is so awesome- they look great from any angle. I created these earrings by using Spectrolite (a rare form of labradorite from Finland) nuggets and rondelles and placing Slate Blue Quartz rondelles in the middle for added interest. These earrings measure just over 2.5" from the top of the earwire. They look heavy, but they aren't!

Chorus and the Crown begin UFB rollout in the South Island
17 October 2011
Chorus and the Crown begin ultra fast broadband rollout in the South Island
Chorus, New Zealand's largest telecommunications network operator together with Crown Fibre Holdings, has today marked the start of the ultra-fast broadband (UFB) rollout in the South Island by deploying new network infrastructure in Blenheim's town centre.
Over the next ten months, this massive programme of work will see the new UFB network deployed across central Blenheim and Springlands. In addition, Chorus' existing business fibre network is being made available at UFB prices.
Chorus CEO Mark Ratcliffe said the new ultra-fast broadband network will pass some 3,000 Blenheim homes, schools, health facilities and businesses by July next year.
"Today we've taken the first step towards Blenheim's fibre future and we're eager to work with partners, local council and community groups to extend our network to more suburbs in the coming year," said Ratcliffe.
"It's great to see the deployment of UFB commencing in Blenheim," said Graham Mitchell, CEO of Crown Fibre Holdings. "A transformation in New Zealand telecommunications infrastructure has well and truly begun. We look forward to seeing it reflected in new retail products and services."
In line with Government policy, fibre will be delivered first to priority customers, which includes schools, health facilities and businesses.
Chorus is working with a range of retail service providers to assist them in developing new fibre-based services. This will enable Blenheim residents to connect to a service using ultra-fast broadband in 2012.
"With a massive reduction in fibre pricing, retail service providers can connect many Blenheim businesses to ultra-fast broadband today," said Ratcliffe.
This means many businesses can begin to connect to Chorus' existing fibre services ahead of the UFB network deployment.
Chorus' website has the list of Blenheim urban schools included in the first year of the UFB rollout, as well as an online map outlining the local UFB candidate area, the first year deployment plans and its business fibre area. This means people can check on the rollout progress and find out if they can connect to the existing business fibre network.
Chorus has already begun the UFB network rollout in Auckland and the Greater Wellington region (including Masterton) with work due to start in Ashburton, Dunedin, Napier, Palmerston North, Rotorua and Taupo within the next five months.
UFB deployment plans for Feilding, Gisborne, Hastings, Greymouth, Invercargill, Kapiti, Levin, Nelson, Oamaru, Pukekohe, Queenstown, Timaru, Waiheke Island, Waiuku and Whakatane are still being developed.
In all, Chorus' new UFB network will run past more than 43,000 homes, schools, health centres and businesses throughout the country by July next year, building on its existing 27,700km national fibre optic cable network.
As part of the UFB agreement, Chorus has started building the new fibre optic UFB network. Telecom has proposed to demerge Chorus, subject to a vote by shareholders later this month.
Blenheim urban schools included in Chorus' first year UFB rollout
The following schools will receive a new UFB fibre optic cable connection during Chorus' first year fibre optic network deployment (covering the period to 30 June 2012):
o Blenheim School
o Mayfield School
o Springlands School
o Witherlea School
The complete list of the first 200 urban schools included in Chorus' first year deployment can be viewed at: www.chorus.co.nz/ournetwork

The legend of Broken
Summary: "Some years ago, a remarkable manuscript long rumored to exist was discovered: The Legend of Broken. It tells of a prosperous fortress city where order reigns at the point of a sword-even as scheming factions secretly vie for control of the surrounding kingdom. Meanwhile, outside the city's granite walls, an industrious tribe of exiles known as the Bane forages for sustenance in the wilds of Davon Wood. At every turn, the lives of Broken's defenders and its would-be destroyers intertwine: Sixt Arnem, the widely respected and honorable head of the kingdom's powerful army, grapples with his conscience and newfound responsibilities amid rumors of impending war. Lord Baster-kin, master of the Merchants' Council, struggles to maintain the magnificence of his kingdom even as he pursues vainglorious dreams of power. And Keera, a gifted female tracker of the Bane tribe, embarks on a perilous journey to save her people, enlisting the aid of the notorious and brilliant philosopher Caliphestros. Together, they hope to exact a ruinous revenge on Broken, ushering in a day of reckoning when the mighty walls will be breached forever in a triumph of science over superstition."--Dust jacket.

Tami Roman is trying to be about her business. If you've been watching "Basketball Wives" this season, she's launched a lip gloss and nail polish line, which will hit shelves at Walgreens soon. And now she's talking about a book and potential spinoff reality show.
She announced the book on the Hot 97 morning show:
"I have a book coming. It's called Mistress 101 and it's about women and their relationships and how they can keep them and what they should do and what they should be working on.
Tami explained that she's never been a mistress herself though.
"I've talked to mistresses. I've been through a relationship and I thought I was the perfect mate, and I think there are a lot of women out there like 'Damn, I'm a good girl,' but clearly there were some things within me that, you know …"
Personally, and this is just me speaking for myself, I don't want any relationship advice from someone who: a) Is not now and has not been in a relationship for some time b) Is getting advice from mistresses. Since when have they been the gurus of keeping healthy and stable relationships? c) Can't even keep a friendship going without trying to smack somebody. But, you know, that's me.
To add to her new brand, Tami is also trying to shop a new reality show, which would be named "Roman Empire":
"That's my own show. It's in development. It's about my life, my daughters, my core group of friends and Miss Elise Neal. I'm excited about showing the world who we are and what we've got going on."
Will you guys be checking for that show? Or Tami's book?
