Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 7/2/2013 (1652 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
IF you'd like the chance to travel to one of the most remote -- and friendly -- parts of the world, you might want to become an amateur hockey referee.
A quartet of local refs has been imported to Nunavut over the past couple of weekends because hockey officials there are scrounging to find qualified whistle-blowers for tournament and regular-season games.
Jeff Strome, referee-in-chief for the Winnipeg Jets Hockey League, an adult recreation league run by True North Sports & Entertainment, was flown into Rankin Inlet last Friday, put up in a new hotel and had free meals while he worked three games in the Northern Challenge League.
(He was supposed to work five games ,but inclement weather kept one team from northern Quebec from flying in.)
"It's a very high level of hockey. I'd compare the speed to Junior A. They have a shortage of (referees) who can handle that level," said Strome, who also does games for the Winnipeg Minor Hockey Association.
"The difference is there's no bodychecking allowed, so you get some really fast-paced games. They're able to dangle and dance as much as they want," he said.
The community was really supportive of the hockey and every game Strome did was standing-room-only.
"They jammed it full of people even in the middle of a blizzard on Saturday night. It was the thing happening in town," he said.
Strome had never been to Nunavut before but he's looking forward to heading back to work some more games.
"It was a really interesting experience. The lifestyle up there is so drastically different. They refer to us as 'the south.' The obvious thing is the weather, it's much colder. You're dealing with -60 with the wind chill on a daily basis," he said.
"I found it kind of fun because I had never experienced something like that before. You're putting on two or three pairs of long johns and you wear a balaclava or your face will get frostbite but once you're bundled up, it's not so bad.
"Walking into the wind, though, is the worst."
The cost of living is considerably higher, too. A four-litre container of milk costs $11 and a can of coke is $2.50.
There's a minimum of sunlight, too. The sun rose around 10 a.m. but set every afternoon around 3:30 p.m.
Blake Rempel, who also works in the WMHA, was one of three referees flown to Arviat, located about 400 kilometres north of Churchill, two weeks ago.
He said the best part was being taken dogsledding.
"They dressed us up in some traditional furs and sent us out on the back of a sled. It was quite the experience. It was wide open, above the treeline," he said.
"One of the other guys brought in to ref got to take the reins on another sled. The dogs don't know where they're going on the way out but they do on the way back."
Rempel, who was accompanied by fellow referees Darcy MacPherson and Mike Lazaruk, said they also sampled caribou meat for the first time.
Strome said he had the feeling of being far removed from a big city in the remote community of 2,300 people.
"You can really sense that in their culture. There are a lot of people living there who have never been to a bigger city. It's like going back in time in a way," he said.

Developer- and Publisher-specific Articles: Double Fine
Double Fine announces release, release date of Broken Age – Act 1
Double Fine has revealed that the first act of their new point-and-click adventure game, Broken Age, is available for backers of its Kickstarter campaign and will be available for the general public on January 28. The Tim Schafer-led title features two characters, Vella Tartine and Shay Volta, who are worlds apart but experiencing similar events, and players will need to switch between the two as their stories unfold. Act 2 is set to launch later this year as a free update, and there are plans to bring both acts to Android, iOS, and Ouya.
Double Fine reacquires rights to Costume Quest and Stacking
In a move that's sure to please fans of Double Fine, the studio has announced that they have reacquired the publishing and distribution rights to Costume Quest and Stacking. The distribution rights were acquired from Nordic Games, who picked them up in 2013 during THQ's bankruptcy. As part of the new deal, the two companies have partnered for a retail release of Costume Quest, Psychonauts, and Stacking for Windows and Mac next year in both North America and Europe.
Psychonauts returns with new version on Steam for PC, Mac
Double Fine has revisited their fan-favorite action-platformer Psychonauts with a new Mac version, new iOS "companion" app, and updated PC version. Steam users can download the PC update now, which includes achievements, cloud saves, and a tweak to make Meat Circus a touch easier. Dracogen handled the port to Mac OS X, which is also available on Steam, as well as the Mac App Store and other digital outlets.

Jake Roberts was the star of the show as he almost single-handedly settled Potterne's final day Premier Two derby with county rivals Goatacre.
The Wiltshire bowler claimed a stunning eight wickets for just 48 runs to help Neil Clark's men earn a six-wicket victory over their counterparts at Goatacre Lane, with Potterne finishing the season nine points off the promotion places.
Brad Dawson's hosts opted to bat first after winning the toss but they were soon made to pay by Roberts, who showed no remorse as he tore through the Goatacre line-up.
Ed Wilkins (24) and Dan Wiseman (14) were the only batsmen to even begin to have any joy off Roberts whilst Kevin Iles hit a late 21 as the home side were dismissed for just 103 midway through the 25th over.
Sahan Wijerathne led the charge for Potterne with an unbeaten 53 as Clark' side reached 105-4 in 26 overs, with Goatacre's Owen Alsop claiming a pair of wickets.
Dawson's men end the campaign seventh in the league.

DOUGIE Freedman says he will not be forced into quick-fix solutions during the January transfer window.
The Wanderers boss landed his first permanent signing this week in £300,000 striker Craig Davies and is now in the market for some defensive cover after finalising a year-long loan move for Slovakia Under-21 international Jan Gregus from Banik Ostrava.
But he remains determined not to pay over the odds for his targets and it is understood the plug was pulled on a deal for Crawley Town defender Hope Akpan – now at Reading – because the manager did not feel the £300,000 fee represented good value.
Freedman has also passed on Norwegian defender Jonatan Tollas, of Aalesund, but retains an interest in bringing in West Brom's Craig Dawson on loan.
His search for defenders may have been made easier following Martin Petrov's exit to Espanyol, which rids the squad of one of its biggest earners.
But Freedman has vowed to stick by his valuation of players in the next 19 days, even if he has to go without another permanent arrival. "We have got an interest in two or three players and, if they become available, then great," he told The Bolton News. "If they don't, then we won't get anybody.
"I don't want to go out there and sign someone who I think will lift the dressing room or the fans for a short-term period.
"I need players who will fit the profile I am looking for. They are out there, but getting them in is difficult."
Gregus has been with the squad for the last couple of weeks but will need time to grow accustomed to his new surroundings before being introduced to the Championship, according to Freedman, who also revealed where he had first discovered the 21-year-old playmaker.
"I spotted this player when I was down scouting about a year ago," he said.
"There were two of them in midfield and one went to Cardiff, the young lad (Filip) Kiss.
"To be honest he's not really one for the first team, it's more for the development squad.
"We'll get him in, get him settled into the country and into the area, and get him used to the intensity of training and of the game over here. Hopefully then he matures and he'll be ready."
Meanwhile, West Brom boss Steve Clarke has confirmed he intends to send Wanderers target Dawson out on loan once Jonas Olsson's groin injury improves.
Steven Reid and Goran Popov have also been absent, leaving Gabriel Tamas as the only spare defender in the Baggies camp.
"Craig is a top prospect and a top talent," Clarke said. "He's been really unfortunate that Olsson and (Gareth) McAuley have been outstanding and the back-up, Gabi Tamas, has also been outstanding when he's played.
"He's found his chances very limited.
"At some stage between now and the end of the season, if he doesn't get in the team here and Jonas, Gareth and Gabi are OK, I would like him to go out to get some games.
"It would be temporary, for sure, because he's got a big future in the game.
"I see an improvement in him from when I came here in the summer to now, and now he needs to go out and get some match time.
"Given the right circumstances we will look to do that."

Southmoreland grad passionate about her game
While high school graduation is naturally a major occasion to celebrate, the week following Shelby Horak's 2010 graduation from Southmoreland High school gave her even greater reason for a celebration.
And it was more than merely the fact that she turned 18 years old. It had been two years since she was able to drive. Now she could vote. But on her 18th birthday, there was a passion that swept over her.
At 18, she was eligible for the Passion. Pittsburgh Passion, that is — women's professional full-contact football.
Four games in four years, however, was the extent of Horak's athletic endeavors in high school — four games of Powder Puff football to benefit the Make-a-Wish Foundation. Although she had played rec level softball, high school athletics were not a priority.
But watching football games on TV was different. College games drew her attention, but not as much as the Steelers.
Until she accidentally channel-surfed her way to a televised Passion game.
"We've always been a football family," she said, referring to her parents, John and Tina, and brother John. "We've always followed the Steelers and college football. I played football with kids in my neighborhood, but that's all. I've always had a love for the game and found out about the Passion during my freshman year in high school. It was women's full-contact football, and it was exciting watching them."
Discovering more about the national championship team on its website, "it sounded more like a family than a football team," she added.
In her sophomore year in high school, her, ahem, passion, grew as she and her family acquired season tickets for home games. Her passion — OK, enough already — intensified with season tickets the following year and, as a senior, traveled to New York to see yet another game. Because of her age — she was not yet 18 — Horak's enthusiasm was limited to being a spectator.
But that changed shortly after graduation when she lit 18 candles on her birthday cake. But no sooner did the candle smoke clear than she tried out for the team in August 2010. Her successful tryout meant she was no longer a spectator. She made the team and was officially a member of the Passion.
"Shelby's dedication is amazing," team owner and coach Teresa Conn said. "She never misses any workouts, in season or in the offseason. Shelby is a true student of the game. For being so young, she is a tremendous leader. All the other players respect her, regardless of her age. She came in eager and determined to learn and play. If she was nervous, it never showed. She learned to play each position on the entire offensive line, which was obviously to her benefit. But she performed best at center."
As she prepares for her third season, Horak recalls her rookie season (2011), when she "was learning how to play," she recalls. "I didn't play much my rookie year, but I became the starting center last year. I especially remember last season's opener against the D.C. Divas. It was my first game to start and I was definitely nervous, but the entire team was supportive and behind me. Winning that game helped give me more confidence. I'm out there to help the team as much as possible, and I've discovered playing for them is like being part of one big family."
In her initial season as starting center last year, when the Passion went 7-1, noted Conn, who has gone from player to coach to owner/coach, Horak "took on a difficult role and did an outstanding job. She has been a great fit for our team. It usually takes several years of experience to take charge on the offensive line, but she's already done that. She knows how to recognize defenses and her leadership and attitude on the field are significant. Other players, regardless of how long they have been with the team, look to her for leadership. Shelby represents us very well."
While playing in an eight-game regular season that extends from April to June, Horak and teammates visit schools to speak to young girls about playing football.
"We try to teach them life lessons through sports," Horak said, "that they learn to communicate and have patience in whatever they attempt and when they have certain goals to work to achieve them. We want them to understand that they can play football. You can do this, we tell them. Football is my hobby, but there's more I want to accomplish."
But it's a hobby unlike any of her former classmates, whose comments range from "do you really?" to "that's so cool" to "awesome" when they discover she's among the ranks of female professional football players.
Then come queries about what women's professional football is all about.
"It's just as physical, compared to men's football," Horak said. "We are obviously smaller than the guys, but we play just as hard. We have a lot of players on our team, and there are so many players throughout the league who come in with outstanding athletic skills. I have teammates who played basketball or softball or who ran track and they are extremely athletic and they bring their skills to the football field."
For Horak, who lives in Mt. Pleasant, playing for the Passion has enabled her to explore a career for when her playing days are behind her. After a year at Penn State, she is on her way at Westmoreland County Community College to earning a bachelor's degree in business. Once she has her degree in hand, it will be back to school for specialty training in zoology or biology, en route to a career goal of opening a big-cat sanctuary, "something I just want to do," she said. When the Passion is on road trips, Horak, whose parents have been extremely supportive, uses the opportunity to visit animal sanctuaries and zoos, exploring the possibilities and making valuable professional contacts.
Until the Passion's 2013 season begins with a home opener April 6 against the Divas, it's off-season flag football workouts or various skills drills to get ready for the season. But there's no mistaking Horak when she arrives for those workouts.
"I often show up at practice wearing a lion or tiger T-shirt because that's my love, big cats," she chuckled. "Because of my T-shirts and what I eventually want to do, my teammates call me 'Big Cat.'"

Swiss students made their mark on Guiseley and Menston and experienced the worst of the British weather during a week-long exchange trip.
The group, who taught French during their stay, were paying a return visit to the area after 15 students from Menston and Guiseley went to Sion in Switzerland at the end of March.
During their stay in Switzerland the English students did work experience as foreign language assistants for a week.
During the return leg of the exchange the Swiss students did work experience teaching at Guiseley School, Tranmere Park, and St Mary's Menston.
One of the organisers of the exchange Paula Critchley said: "They have certainly seen the worst of British weather during their stay, but there have been no complaints.
"The exchange has been a big success in this, its first year.
"I intend to continue the exchange next year and beyond, hopefully fostering strong links for cultural and linguistic exchange between the schools."

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 15, 2011
Tehran was galvanized by the capture of the US drone into a spurt for spreading its diplomatic wings and showing the departing Americans who is the boss in Baghdad. An Iranian delegation sought to persuade Riyadh to help stabilize the regime in Damascus by forcing Bashar Assad to co-opt opposition factions to his government.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 15, 2011
The US will not review its reconnaissance drone flights over Iran for fear they will also be downed and captured like the RQ-170. Iran could not have accomplished this coup alone because it would have required the technology for filtering through billions of coded communications relayed from Langley to satellites and cracking the coded links from Langley to one satellite and from satellite to drone.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 14, 2011
Iranian Intelligence Minister Heidar Moslehi visited Riyadh Monday, Dec. 12 with a large delegation and a proposition for Crown Prince Nayef: For an anti-US and anti-Zionist pact on regional issues, Tehran would act to bring the Syrian opposition into government and open its nuclear program to Saudi participation. Moslehi boasted that after seizing top US secret drone technology by a successful cyber attack, Iran was unquestionably the top regional power. The Saudis moved fast to take the ayatollahs down a peg or two.
DEBKAfile DEBKA Weekly December 13, 2011
By deploying US troops on the Jordanian-Syrian border, the Obama administration played the last piece of its master game for Bashar Assad's ouster – in conjunction with Turkey, France, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Qatar. DEBKA-Net-Weekly's latest issue out Friday offers glimpses of covert US action in Syria alongside counter-steps pursued by Damascus, Tehran and Hizballah.

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 13, 2011
Units of US troops evacuated from Iraq have been diverted to positions in Jordan opposite a Syrian tank concentration building up across the kingdom's northern border, debkafile reports.The incoming US contingents are housed at the King Hussein Air Base of al-Mafraq, 10 kilometers from the Syrian border. They are the first US boots to hit the ground directly opposite Assad's army, brought there by Bashar Assad's threat to set the Middle East on fire if the pressure against him persists.
DEBKAfile Special Report December 12, 2011
Bigheaded from capturing the US RQ-170 Sentinel stealth drone, Tehran Monday, Dec. 12 announced plans soon for a navy drill to practice closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the most important oil transit channel in the world. Iranian lawmaker Parviz Sorouri said, "Iran will make the world unsafe if the world attacks Iran." The drill will challenge US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta's recent warning that Iranian disruptions of Persian Gulf free traffic would be a red line for the US.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Analysis December 11, 2011
Iran is driving a hard bargain for granting Russian and Chinese teams access to the US stealth drone RQ-170 it captured undamaged last week. debkafile reports: The price, they were told, includes advanced nuclear and missile technology, especially systems using solid fuel, the last word on centrifuges for enriching uranium and the S-300PMU-1 air defense system, which Moscow has consistently refused to sell Tehran. Israel's prime minister sent foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman to Moscow to try and stop the deal.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 9, 2011
Iran's electronic trap for snaring the Lockheed Martin RQ-170 Sentinel, one of the world's most secret drone programs in almost perfect condition, must be accounted a huge military and intelligence coup and a landmark in the long tussle over Tehran's nuclear program. It may have acquired the technology for its cyber attack from Pakistan, China, or even Russia.

The US is to shelve its covert war against Iran's nuclear program and any plans for a direct military attack until it discovers how Iran came to capture the top-secret RQ-170 reconnaissance drone complete with its secrets. Israel too will have to revamp its plans of attack before risking manned or unmanned aircraft over Iranian air space.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 7, 2011
Tuesday, Dec. 6, the US, France and Britain went into concerted action to contain the Syrian crisis before it detonates a regional conflict and deteriorates into civil strife. At the same time, Syria and its neighbors sharply intensified their war preparations, fully expecting diplomacy to fail. In Geneva, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told the leaders of Syrian opposition groups that the Obama administration had stepped up its pressure on Assad and now referred to his regime as the "Assad gang."
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 1, 2011
After spotting an attempted plot on the life of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran has launched a mega manhunt to ferret out the army of double agents and inside traitors suspected to have infested the upper reaches of its government, Revolutionary Guards and armed forces.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 1, 2011
Small Western special forces units have begun filtering into Syria to prepare the ground for a major military operation by the US, several more NATO members and Gulf emirates, to captured northern Syria and use it as a beachhead to eventually dominate the rest of the country.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 1, 2011
The West and Israel have no option but to admit the failure of a decade of sanctions, military threats, diplomatic penalties, cyber war and covert operations to abort Iran's drive for a nuclear bomb. Tehran has never wavered from its goal, citing the "Persian Carpet Doctrine" as its secret weapon.
DEBKAfile DEBKA Weekly November 29, 2011
The hidden wars the United States, NATO, Arab League members and Israel are waging against Iran, Syria and Hizballah rose to a record pitch in the last two weeks. Aspects of these covert operations are revealed exclusively in the latest DEBKA-Net-Weekly, out lat Friday. In Syria, these operations teeter on the brink of overt combat.

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 25, 2011
It is within the next six months or never. Israel's defense minister has finally confirmed its time frame for an attacking Iran's nuclear sites, having given up on sanctions present or future and strong UN nuclear agency counter-measures having any effect.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 25, 2011
Saudi rulers have concluded that to survive in the Middle East, they need an independent nuclear weapon capability. They have launched a nuclear weapons and missile program as a counterweight to the Iranian capability which they do not expect anyone else to curtail.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 21, 2011
The US, Canada and Russia have launched gunboat diplomacy against Syria and Iran. Washington is underscoring its military option against Iran's nuclear program, while Russia is demonstrating its resolve to prevent NATO from attacking Syria. Monday, Nov. 21, Russia's foreign minister Sergey Lavrov accused Western nations of "political provocation" against Damascus. Turkish Prime Minster Tayyip Erdogan warned Assad he could go only so far with tanks and guns. "One day you will go." The question is when will naval diplomacy turn into war action.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 21, 2011
Monday, Nov. 21, Jordan's King Abdullah II arrived in Ramallah at very short notice for his first visit in more than a decade. He came wearing two hats – one for Saudi Arabia and the Gulf emirates and one for Washington – on an urgent mission to pull Abbas back from a peace deal with Hamas which would deposit the Palestinian Authority in the Iranian-Syrian orbit. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is in the picture. So are the Israeli chief of staff's words on a Gaza operation.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 18, 2011
Iran has squirreled away 50 million barrels of oil in giant tankers on the Red Sea as its trump card for fixing prices and bypassing sanctions. America wants Israel to harass the tanker fleet and its warship escorts, including submarines, stationed there since July, and chase them away from Israel's back door.
The Netanyahu government is reluctant.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 18, 2011
Mahmoud Abbas must suspend his bid for Palestinian membership of the UN and its institutions to get hold of frozen American and Israeli cash transfers. The Palestinian Authority is not only broke because of his missteps, but also made irrelevant by the upheavals in the rest of the Arab world.

Figuring it out at Tate Modern
Entitled The Upright Figure, this is the first time the gallery has not commissioned a new piece for the exhibition hall, instead preferring to draw on its largely unseen works.
Turning the Turbine Hall into a creative space is no mean feat. The gallery, which opened in 2000, is housed inside a former power station.
The Turbine Hall runs the full-length of the gallery, with its very high ceilings and natural sunlight making a striking entrance.
But it is also a difficult space to exhibit art without it getting lost in the vastness. Previous exhibitions have seen larger installations employed.
Jamie Fobert was brought in as the architect with a specific brief of displaying the 20 or so sculptures in such a way that the public could interact at a certain level, but were in no danger of damaging the works of art.
Capacious surroundings
His solution was to place steel sheeting on the floor and turn up the sides, thus creating a natural barrier.
He also added two 4.5 metre high walls to give the exhibition a slight feeling of enclosure, ensuring the statues are not lost in their capacious surroundings.
"It is exciting to see people walking, or school children sketching, inbetween the fields because from a distance it adds the extra dimension of blurring the lines between art and reality," said Mr Fobert.
Unusually, the majority of the statues are placed at ground level and not on plinths.
All the sculptures are life-size - although not necessarily lifelike and are divided into three, displayed on separating steel sheets.
The first is a collection of five statues dating from 1900 to 1916, including works by Auguste Renoir and James Harvard Thomas, showing the tradition of the period for life-like figures.
Brock's Eve, which is made in stone, is an impressive sight, with innocence and vulnerability in the beautiful form.
The second section is devoted to works spanning the middle of the century, from Alberto Giacometti's Walking Woman, started in 1939, to William Turnbull's Idols, from 1956.
There is a stark contrast between these works and the earlier, more classical ones. These are much more interpretative of the human form.
Shift back
Barbara Hepworth's Single Form would not be instantly recognisable as a body but placed amid such a collection, it becomes obvious what the bronze symbolises.
The third field demonstrates the shift back to sculptures in the more traditional form.
Leonard McComb's Portrait of a Young Man Standing, cast in bronze, but looking every inch golden, is an exquisite example of 20th century craftsmanship.
As an added bonus there are three Henry Moores on display on the bridge above the space; Draped Seated Figure, Woman and Seated Woman: Thin Neck.
The Upright Figure continues at the Tate Modern until 31 August.

Canadian Researchers Find Way to Grow Stem Cells in Larger Quantities

(Source: daylife.com)
The new suspension method allows stem cells to be collected in larger numbers instead of being scraped off of a surface
Researchers from the University of Toronto's Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering (IBBME) have created a new method for
growing stem cells
in larger quantities.
David Fluri, a postdoctoral researcher at IBBME, and Peter Zandstra, a professor at IBBME, have developed a new suspension method for growing stem cells, which allows for the collection of greater numbers of stem cells and increases the chance of obtaining viable cells in a cost-effective way.
Traditionally, stem cells are grown on surfaces that need to be scraped and are then differentiated from other kinds of cells to avoid cell death. However, this method doesn't produce enough viable stem cells from each culture, and the high cost to use this method doesn't match the results.
But now, Fluri and Zandstra have combined the stem cell creation process with a bioreactor, which provides stable environments for such processes. The cells were also grown in suspension, making the process more stable and safer for
more viable cells
By doing this, mouse cells were reprogrammed into pluripotent stem cells, which can become any kind of cell. They were then changed into cardiac cells.
Fluri and Zandstra hope that this new technique can be used to eventually treat heart disease. It is designed to work with large scale processes and provide the quantity needed for successful stem cell research and drug development.
"This is an enabling technology," said Zandstra. "It takes something we showed we could do before at low efficiency but not at such numbers that could be used in manufacturing."
"If you can find a PS3 anywhere in North America that's been on shelves for more than five minutes, I'll give you 1,200 bucks for it." -- SCEA President Jack Tretton

Corner Hotel, Richmond, February 17
Would the Corner Hotel have been packed out on a school night if Francoiz Breut were not French? Judging by the sprinkling of berets and the preponderance of Left Bank chic, this was a night for the Francophiles. Would they have turned up in such numbers if her name had been Joan Smith?
It doesn't hurt, if you're going to sing melancholy songs of loving and losing, to be an extremely attractive Francaise (how would you describe the sound of 100 jaws dropping?) with tousled hair and a voice that could charm the birds from the trees. You could call it the Amelie effect.
Luckily, aside from the odd glitch, Breut's performance reinforced the impression gleaned from her second album, Vingt a Trente Mille Jours, that it wouldn't matter if she were singing in Latvian or Swahili. The music stands on its own without the Gallic gloss.
Backed only by a guitarist - the excellent and apparently mono-named Boris - Breut meandered through her two albums and threw in a couple of new songs for good measure, charming her audience with her obvious passion and her haphazard attempts at English.
The crowd, eased into the evening by the lazy, warm sound of the Rectifiers, was ripe for the picking, and greeted the opening chords of her better-known numbers, mostly from the superior second album, with enthusiastic applause.
Imagine a female Leonard Cohen accompanied by Ennio Morricone and you'll have some idea of the sound. Breut's voice is sweet but tough and, on Tuesday night, she seemed painfully shy (although that might have been the language barrier), retreating into the shadows at the back of the stage when Boris cut loose with his twanging, cinematic fretwork and FX pedals.
Although Breut has been compared, predictably, with French cultural treasures such as Francoise Hardy and Serge Gainsbourg, she seems somehow less French than them, less ironic and knowing.
One quibble about the show would be that a lone guitarist, no matter how skilful and attuned to mood, was unable to do justice to Breut's vocals. On her more sparse, downbeat songs, this was no problem, but, with offerings such as Derriere le Grand Filtre, which, on the album, is carried to a climax by percussion and shimmering, layered guitars, it left you feeling a little hollow.
Judging by the two encores, though, it didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the black-clad crowd.

The songstress drops the 'vandalized' music video for the latest track off her mixtape 'RockaByeBaby'.
R'n'B/hip-hop artist Cassie premieres a music video of her track "I Know What You Want" off her April-released mixtape "RockaByeBaby". No less than the 27-year-old singer's famous boyfriend P. Diddy promoted the new clip to his 8 million Twitter followers when he posted a link to the Chris Latouche and Jay-Ohh-directed visuals.
Cassie, who's also a dancer and model, flaunts her sexy figure in a revealing one-piece bikini with a sweatshirt wrapped around her waist, dousing Ciroc on two well-built men. Putting on a pair of jeans and sneakers, she then rides around town in her BMX bike through the streets of Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, California towards the end of the clip filled with creative scribbling by Eric-Shabazz Larkin.
"I Know What You Want" comes on the heels of previously released "RockaByeBaby" tracks "Numb" featuring Maybach Music Group mogul Rick Ross and "Paradise" featuring rapper Wiz Khalifa. It samples the beat of Kendrick Lamar's track "m.A.A.d. city" off his debut album "good kid, m.A.A.d city".
Using K.Dot's instrumentals, Cassie attempts to move from her R'n'B sound to a more hip-hop vibe, wisely done with the use of one of the most recognizable rap tracks from the Compton rap superstar. Cassie creates a sensual jam from the rapper's synth sounds, matched with the provocative lyrics, "I know what you want/ You want everything/ so let's do everything."

GNC sues over similar name
General Nutrition Centers Inc. is suing a Florida chain of pawnshops over the use of its name.
The Pittsburgh retailer, which operates 8,100 nutritional products stores worldwide, filed the lawsuit two weeks ago in federal court in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., against Gold N Connection LLC, which operates five pawnshops and a website under the names GNC Pawn and gncpawn.com.
General Nutrition said it has used the GNC for its retail operations since at least 1963. Gold N Connection registered that name in Florida on Dec. 19, 2007, according to its attorney Douglas J. Jeffrey.
Using the name GNC Pawn is likely to dilute General Nutrition's trademark "by blurring its distinctiveness," the retailer claimed. GNC "instantly identifies and distinguishes GNC and its products and services in the minds of consumers." It became famous long before GNC Pawn started using that name, the lawsuit said.
Gold N Connection is a family-owned company with pawn shops in Pompano Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Margate and Oakland Park in Broward County, Fla., plus its website.
"GNC is delusional if it believes that the public will be confused into thinking the GNCPawn.com sells vitamins or dietary supplements. ... We do not sell nutritional products," said owner Joshua Davis in a statement released Friday by his attorney.
General Nutrition claimed that GNC Pawn used similar block-style lettering as the retailer's GNC logo and the same red coloring.
"The fonts and typefaces are completely different," said Davis.
GNC Pawn's shops and signs are located within about five miles of 13 GNC nutrition stores, General Nutrition said in the lawsuit.
"That had nothing to do with their selection" of a name, said attorney Jeffrey, who represents GNC Pawn.
"This lawsuit presents a classic case of David and Goliath," Jeffrey said. "We will vigorously defend this meritless lawsuit."
General Nutrition as a matter of corporate policy does not comment on pending litigation, spokeswoman Laura Brophy wrote in an email.
It wants the court to bar use of the GNC Pawn name, deliver to General Nutrition all signage and other materials used, and pay damages of three times the amount of Gold N Connection's profits.

I have heard that Larry Bird is really high on OJ? any truth to that?
how high is he and where do i get this OJ?
Well, he was certainly interested in him at the trading deadline as an upgrade to the roster. I'd assume he'd still be interested.
Nuntius was right for a while. I was wrong for a while. But ultimately I was right and Frank Vogel has been let go.
"A player who makes a team great is more valuable than a great player. Losing yourself in the group, for the good of the group, thats teamwork."

Why won't Memphis keep him now?
because if Gay was healthy he wouldnt even be playing.
Mike Wells Indy beat writer said we will do everything within reason to get OJ this summer. If he was just guessing im not sure but he sounded confident in his radio interview.
Mayo played pretty good defense and moved within the offense of Memphis. But when Sefolosha was guarding him he struggled.
I still would not mind having some Mayo. But I would expect Miracle Whip.
I'd be happy to have OJ from next season at least and then look to bring in someone else like Gordon.
I'm sure OJ's price has gone up considering what he has done in the playoffs and what Josh didn't do in the playoffs!
...Still "flying casual"
Giving them our first round pick is what probably persuaded them most of all at first to have interest in this deal considering they don't have one.
I've had in mind Josh (S&T), Brandon, 2011 First for Mayo.
Hopefully if he comes here, he brings his rookie self with him.
I'll go for a good deal for Mayo, but I don't see him as being such a vital addition after what I saw from Paul George. I'm more concerned about getting a good PF/C.
If we do get Mayo what would be the need to get Gordon? He is a good player but some u guys seem like u only want him cause he is hometown boy. OJ is just as good or better, his defense is highly underrated. I was watching the game and he gets real low when guarding his man. U guys are comparing his defense to Tony Allen.
Don't mayo and granger strongly dislike each other?
i've never heard that before.
Come to the Dark Side -- There's cookies!
If Granger really is that mentaly weak that he will refuse to play with some one that would be sad(im pretty sure that isnt the case)
Danny did throw the ball at OJ during their last meeting it was
I didn't think much of that scuffle.
Danny is a reasonable guy and hopefully OJ is too. He seems like a good guy. Just a little confused and still finding his place.
I'd love to get mayo if we don't have to give up Danny, PG, Hibbert, Hans, or DC. I am pretty sure we'd have to include one of our young talented core to get EJ.
I'm still a little concerned with having two knuckleheads (and no strong player leader) in the locker room.

"Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well." - Voltaire
"Everyone's values are defined by what they will tolerate when it is done to others." - William Greider
As long as they don't play cards on the plane, I'm sure it'll be fine.
I have absolutely no interest in seeing Mayo play for the Pacers.
it seemed to me that bird was interested in mayo as a target of opportunity rather than someone he had been looking at for a long time. the pacers do need a guy like mayo. a guy that can create his own shot. but i don't think bird wants mayo specifically. there are about a billion guys that can create their own shot. that description covers almost all combo type guards. getting one of them is cheaper and easier than mayo right now. so i do not expect the pacers to target mayo specifically this summer.
I think OJ is exactly the type of player the Pacers need. I don't see how you could disagree with that if you have watched OJ much at all. Even if these playoffs were your introduction to him. He does everything that Danny and PG don't do well and would, in my opinion, let us completely forget about our wings for the next 3 or 4 years at least.
If the Pacers get Mayo, I would guarantee either him or PG would win the 6th man award in the next two seasons. Teams who have the 6th man are usually pretty good teams.

I would like to know who you think you can get that is cheapier and easier to get than Mayo. Combo guards like him are not a dime a dozen. Mayo is a perfect fit for the pacers, he just needs to keep his mouth shut. Our teams positive attitude could and should rub off on him if we get him, so I am not to worried about his attitude anyway.
No, he isn't. Gordon is significantly better than Mayo.
