New Islander Evgeni Nabokov is finding himself enjoying his new home. The 36-year-old Russian goaltender is finding the young group of players in the locker room and the surrounding Long Island area to his liking.
"It's so much fun," Nabokov said about his new team. "Young legs on the ice just flying all over. (They're) just a great group of guys."
He's also been able to check out the surrounding area around Long Island. "I go for dinners around the Manhasset area over there and around Roosevelt field mall," Nabokov revealed after media day.
Most of the attention surrounding Nabokov has been about where the Isles will put him the goalie rotation. The Islanders have two other quality starters in Rick Dipietro and Al Montoya. Along with rookie net minders Kevin Poulin, Anders Nilsson, and Mikko Koskinen.
Nabokov is aware of the crowded net, but is only focused on what he needs to do.
"To be honest with you I don't pay attention too much," Nabokov said. "I just control what I can control which is stopping the puck and after that it's all up to management. To me it's just business as usual."
He was later asked if he felt he had anything to prove Nabokov gave a very firm answer.
"Isn't it always like that, you have something to prove," he responded. "If you have nothing to prove then you take a vacation and have fun with that. You have to prove your self every single night, every single period."
He would reiterate that statement as the scrum went on.
"I cannot be surprised about anything in the NHL. I can only control what I can control, which is stop the puck and try and try and go out and practice hard."

Bieber's Monkey Trouble
According to PEOPLE, the animal flew to Munich with the singer on his private plane, but was quarantined at Franz Joseph Strauss Airport.
"Justin Bieber brought his monkey to Germany but had no official paperwork with him," Thomas Meister, a spokesman for the airport customs office, told PEOPLE. "We were forced to confiscate the animal."
"Do a random act of kindness for #goodfriday . Thanks," the 19-year-old wrote on Twitter on his day off. The "Boyfriend" crooner is scheduled to play in Vienna on Saturday.
Bieber's airport incident comes just days after the Canadian superstar made headlines for allegedly getting into a fight with — and spitting on — his neighbor in Calabasas, Calif.
The week before, Bieber's BFF Lil Twist reportedly threw a big party at the same home. Some 40 partygoers were apparently at the bash, according to TMZ, while Bieber was overseas on tour.
What do you think of the latest Justin Bieber headline? Do you think his year will get better? Weigh in below.

Crawl around the 9-5's interior, and you'll quickly take note that it's one of the roomiest, most comfortable cabins in this class. Thanks to its Saab's Swedish heritage, combined with its Dutch ownership and management, its seats are among the best of any vehicle for taller people up front, with top models getting extending thigh supports as well as great back support that isn't merely lumped at the bottom. There's also a bit of side support to hold you in place for corners, without giving you the wedged-in feel of some sport seats, and the soft, pliable, ventilated leather is breathable and comfortable for the long haul.
In back, the perches are configured for adults, too. Two can sit in long-distance comfort in back; a fold-down armrest and pass-through, as well as contouring, make the middle position best kept for shorter stints. Back-seat passengers also get their own climate controls
While most German mid-sizers like the BMW 5-Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class end up putting the pinch on rear-seat accommodations as soon as there's someone taller in the front seat, the 9-5 still manages enough knee room and legroom for taller adults in back.
Ride quality in the 2011 9-5 is great—just absorbent enough in the top Aero model to soak up coarseness and minor bumps while staying quite firm, well-controlled and responsive. Engine noise is pretty well muted, and wind noise is never an issue.
The driving position is great, too, with the swoopy instrument panel design putting everything quite close at hand. Up close, Saab hasn't worked very hard to mask the GM roots for most of its switchgear, but that's quite alright; some of it feels directly poached from Cadillac, the rest from Opel and Buick.

Welcome to church Night, Dearly Beloved Truthseekers! Mike has some particularly prosaic passages to share with you for our weekly Wednesday night prayer meeting.
We will remember the tragic day 12 years ago when 19 (mostly Saudi) terrorists claimed the lives of 3,000 of our citizens and permanently scarred our nation.
It is doubly tragic that this horrendous event, which gathered the nations of the world behind us, was quickly exploited by the Bush Crime Family to justify the preemptive strike on Iraq, turning much of the world against us.
What a difference a decade or so makes.
Remember the many many times Dubya or his consigliores took to the telescreens to hammer home the message that we must "never forget 9-11" and the "evildoers" who conspired against us? We cannot forget. Not only because of the innocent victims, or the damage that was done to our national psyche that day, but also because it marked the day we embarked on our never-ending terror wars.
Once heralded as defenders of freedom, civil liberties, and humanitarianism, we are now better known for our domestic spy tactics, human rights abuses, war crimes, and unending violence against non-provocative sovereign nations and innocent civilians. With GITMO and Abu Graib and drone strikes, our actions serve as virtual terrorist recruiting posters.
And now comes Syria, the next target on Obama's "kill list." What fresh he;; can be expected in this new theater? Common Dreams reports:
President Obama often claims credit for ending the war in Iraq and bringing the troops home. Yet the war is not ended for those who served. Every day 22 veterans and service members kill themselves in the United States. Suicide is at epidemic levels, the death toll surpassing those killed on 9-11. No one claims credit for this. And Iraq is in chaos. Car bombs and suicide bombers kill dozens on a nearly daily basis. One thousand people died in July alone. The war is not over, though America has moved on.
Those responsible for the illegal war on Iraq remain free. Their lies have been exposed. Their crimes are obvious. Rather prosecute these men and women, Obama said he believed "We need to look forward as opposed to looking backwards." There is expediency in looking forward, especially when your administration will take up the policies of your predecessor and continue to act in unlawful and immoral ways. Drone attacks now kill in Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Somalia. The President reviews a "kill list" on a weekly basis. Targeted assassination is the norm. Innocent men remain imprisoned in Guantánamo. Libya is decimated after our humanitarian intervention.
Syria, already in shattered from war, is now under threat of an American attack. After two years of watching the carnage unfold, an American red line has finally been surpassed. In the lead up to bombing, there has been little looking ahead and many calls to never forget.
President Obama claims our ideals, principles, and "world leadership" are at stake in Syria.
Laying out his moral justification for a cruise missile attack, on the eve of Sept 11th, Obama had the audacity to claim, "America is not the world's policeman. Terrible things happen across the globe, and it is beyond our means to right every wrong. But when, with modest effort and risk, we can stop children from being gassed to death, and thereby make our own children safer over the long run, I believe we should act. That's what makes America different. That's what makes us exceptional. With humility, but with resolve, let us never lose sight of that essential truth."
With humility and resolve Americans should deal honestly with our past, with our present, and with our dire future. With modest effort and risk we can make the future safer for all children. We can do this by simply demanding accountability of our leaders and recognizing the only thing that is exceptional about America is our inability to see other's lives as valuable as our own.

Am I the only one who thinks that the fact that Heroku only supports deployment through Git is a big disavantage?
I mean, for non compilable languages like Ruby, JavaScript, Python it shouldn't matter that much, but for JVM languages (the only compilable ones they support at the moment) I would prefer not to share my whole source code history with a company that really does not need to have it.
I believe that if they want to attract more than pet projects and really make a case for the "enterprise market" this should be taken into consideration. Most of us have stuff in their VCS that most definitely don't need to be available in the production enviroment. That stuff is our secret sauce. Just because Git makes it easy to push it around should we really do it?

DETROIT - "To think that something like this could possibly happen to people baffles my mind," said Gabriela Putek.
Putek still can't believe it happened to her.
"It was just crazy to me. I can't believe people are out there doing that to people who have children," she said.
At about 8 p.m. Tuesday, at the parking lot of the Family Dollar on the Vernor Highway in Detroit an armed man approached her car moments after she buckled her two children in their car seats.
"He was right there at the window and he pointed the gun at me, knocked on the window and told me to get the 'F' out of his car before he kills me," said Putek.
The next few minutes were a blur. She struggled to get her children unbuckled and then ran screaming. She watched the armed man take off in her car. Her only mode of transportation gone before she even knew what happened.
"I grabbed my two kids, put them in front of me and just started running. I had no shoes on. I just had socks," she said.
Investigators have told Putek they located the car but unfortunately, as in most of these cases, the car is dumped after it is stripped.
"I was thinking I don't want to die in front of my kids. I don't want nothing to happen to my kids," she said.
Investigators will be reviewing surveillance video from the Family Dollar store.
Putek and her children were not physically hurt during this.

Stock investors boosted selling Monday after domestic gold price shot up.
Home bullion surged continuously this morning to around VND44.1 million ($2.100) per tael, a strong jump of VND2.2 million per tael against yesterday's close. This price is VND1.2 million ($58.5) per tael higher than the global prices.
The VN-Index of Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE) declined since the session's opening, closing at 396.41 points. The benchmark lost 4.47 points or 1.12 per cent.
The HNX-Index of Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX) shed 1.22 points or 1.78 per cent to 67.32 points.
More than half of the HoSE eased back, mainly mid-cap and small-cap stocks. Speculative stocks like Tan Tao Investment Industry Corp. (ITA), Sacom Development and Investment Corp (SAM), Licogi 16 (LCG), Investment and Trading of Real Estate JSC (ITC) largely hit the floor or nearly hit the floor.
Securities company shares were also strongly sold on the HNX, pushing those driving stocks sharply down. Kim Long Securities (KLS), Bao Viet Securities (BVS) and VnDirect Securities (VND) lost 4-5 per cent, while Wall Street Securities (WSS) hit the floor.
Blue-chips significantly fell, of which Saigon Securities Inc. (SSI) shed 2.31 per cent, PetroVietnam Fertilizer (DPM) 1.61 per cent, FPT Corp. (FPT) 2.73 per cent and Hoang Anh Gia Lai (HAG) down 2.63 per cent.
A few others rose, among them Kinh Do Corp. (KDC), Bao Viet Holdings (BVH), Phu Nhuan Jewelry (PNJ). Sacombank (STB) was unchanged, while Vietcombank (VCB) slightly shed.
Weak liquidity has not improved on both two bourses. Matching values stood at VND337 billion ($16.3 million) on the HoSE, while hitting VND199.7 billion ($9.7 million) on HNX.
Investors still focused on a few major stocks like KLS, VND, Saigon-Hanoi Bank (SHB), STB and PetroVietnam Construction (PVX).
Overall, 24.7 million shares worth VND462.7 billion ($22.6 million) were traded on the southern bourse, while the HXN saw 23.4 million shares worth VND228.7 billion ($11.1 million) changing hands.

To the Editor: In response to a recent report that suggested human infection with Rickettsia japonica in northeastern Thailand (1), we phylogenetically reexamined spotted fever group rickettsiae (SFGR) from Thailand. The organism had been isolated from a male Haemaphysalis hystricis tick found on Mt. Doi Suthep, Chiang Mai, northern Thailand, in December 2001. The strain was designated TCM1 and was not distinguishable from R. japonica by indirect immunoperoxidase stain using monoclonal antibody (2).
After propagating strain TCM1 in L-929 cell culture, we extracted DNA by using a Wizard Genomic DNA Purification Kit (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). We subjected the DNA to sequencing that targeted a 491-bp fragment of rickettsial outer membrane protein A (ompA), a 394-bp fragment of the rickettsial genus–specific 17-kDa antigen gene, and a 1,250-bp fragment of citrate synthase gene (gltA). Direct sequencing of amplicons was performed as previously described (3). Phylogenetic analyses based on ompA indicated that strain TCM1 was closely related to and clustered within the same clade as R. japonica strain YH (98.4% identity) (Figure, panel A). Also, a 17-kDa antigen gene obtained from strain TCM1 showed 99.5% identity to the corresponding gene of R. japonica (Figure, panel B). Our phylogenetic analysis with ompA and 17-kDa antigen gene showed that strain TCM1 was closely related to R. japonica but distinguished from Rickettsia sp. PMK94 (which was closely related to R. heilongjiangensis from northeastern China) (3); another SFGR agent, R. honei from Ixodes granulatus ticks in Thailand (4), was apparently different from strain TCM1 (Figure). Phylogenetic analyses based on gltA (99.4%–99.6% identity) showed that strain TCM1 is also closely related to R. japonica and Rickettsia sp. strain PMK94 (data not shown). Thus, we describe the R. japonica group in Thailand. DNA sequences of strain TCM1 were determined and deposited in GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ under the following accession nos.: ompA, AB359459; 17-kDa antigen, AB359457; gltA, AB359458.
R. japonica is the specific pathogen of Japanese spotted fever, which has been found mainly in southwestern Japan (5). The present strain, closely related to R. japonica, is likely to have been isolated from H. hystricis in Thailand because R. japonica frequently has been isolated, or detected by PCR, from the same tick species in Japan (6). Such tick species–specificity of SFGR should be considered when speculating on any geopathologic relationships of rickettsioses among different SFGR-endemic areas. Previous reports on spotted fever–positive results of human serosurveys (7,8) and on a clinical case (9) in northern Thailand may provide epidemiologic background. In Asia, multiple species of rickettsiea (e.g., R. japonica, R. heilongjiangensis, R. honei) are the causative agents of spotted fever rickettsioses, so the agent closely related to R. japonica could cause spotted fever in Thailand. Additionally, R. japonica has been found in Korea (10), and our current study indicates that R. japonica and its genetic variants are widely distributed in Far Eastern countries, including Japan (Grant-in-Aid for International Cooperative Research, unpub. data). Therefore, the epidemiology and genetic variation of SFGR throughout Asia should be examined by molecular studies.

Comment 01 Oct 2014
What if? Just playing devil's advocate here...Let's say Tom Herman gets a head coaching gig (which will happen sooner than later, duh). Braxton graduates this spring and can transfer w/o sitting out and decides to go with Herman because let's face it, JT gonna play next year unless there is some sort of monumental collapse. This would be horrible and I don't think it would happen but DANG!!! I couldn't imagine seeing #5 in a different uni.

WILLIE Poching insists Warrington Wolves must show they have learned from the mistakes that cost them against rivals Widnes Vikings.
Wolves host Wakefield Trinity Wildcats in Super League Round 22 after a loss at Vikings ended their 10-match winning run.
But Poching believes Wakefield will prove dangerous opposition at The Halliwell Jones Stadium.
"We were off in a few areas that we've been very good in the last couple of months," said the first-team coach.
"It's about taking those lessons and learning from them and we won't know if we have until we play again this week.
"There were some areas off the ball we didn't quite execute, plays we've been good at of late. Defensively as well there were some areas we need to fix up.
"It could be a good thing to learn those lessons. We expected to do a lot better. Full credit to Widnes."
Joel Monaghan is expected to return, while Poching feels others could have taken the opportunity to lead at Widnes in his absence.
"It is always hard to replace a person of his experience and talent," he added. "But we had more than enough to compensate.
"To lose someone of his experience is an opportunity for someone else to take a leadership role. It gives them a bit more responsibility.
"We had leaders out there who could have done a good job. Joel should be up for selection, he will be a welcome addition if he plays."
Wakefield have hit form since James Webster took charge following Richard Agar's departure and Poching expects a different side to the one Wolves beat 36-4 in May – one now steered again by their 2013 key man Tim Smith, on loan from Salford.
"They've been going great under James Webster," said Poching. "It was a blip last week (40-6 loss at Catalan Dragons) so they'll be fired up to get back on track.
"They've got some of their strike weapons back, they're a team full of confidence on and off the field and so they'll be dangerous.
"Tim Smith is back and revelling in leading the team around and doing a really good job for them.
"They've got big front rowers, are playing athletically and it's a totally different team to the one we faced earlier in the season."
And for former Wakefield player Poching it provides a chance to establish some bragging rights .
"I still live in the area," he explained. "I know some of the kids that have come through and have got mates who still play there and work there off the field.
"It's good bragging rights, poking a bit of fun at each other. All the people in my street are Wakey fans, so I cop it all week and it's always fun to play your old team."

Nepal's army, which is fiercely protective of its UN peacekeeping work, faces serious allegations of crimes that have never been addressed and rights activists worry that there might be more alleged war criminals serving as peacekeepers. Earlier this month, a Nepalese army colonel was charged in the UK, accused of torturing prisoners. But so far, the UN's Department of Peacekeping Operations says that weeding out suspected abusers is not its job. Al Jazeera's Subina Shrestha reports from Kathmandu.Source: Al Jazeera

Roanoke- It took all season, but it was sweet when it happen. The talent was always there, but it took a while to put it all together. It clicked on Saturday, and great things did happen. Junior Lonnie Maddox sprinted down the runway, leaped upward at the board and soared almost 21 feet in the air to capture the long jump competition (20' 10 ½") at the Second Annual James Earl Jones Last Chance Meet. Maddox continued his great day with the 100 meters (13th– 11.91 seconds), 200 meters (9th– 24.17 seconds), and triple jump (17th– 35' 7 ½").
Ian Calfee had the best day of his career with a shot put heave of 49' 10" to place second out of 25 competitors. The magical 50' mark is just a tiny two inches away, a feat that the gentle giant wants so bad with only three meets to go in his high school career. Calfee also had a good day in the discus by finishing 4th out of 30 throwers (131' 5").
Damon Akers had a personal best in the 800 meters with an eighth place finish (2:05). If Akers learns to relax more in the first 200 meters of the half-mile race, he is sure to have a good chance to advance to the regional championships next weekend.

Kraft's move on Cadbury, up 15.5p to 798.5p, has prompted talk that - with confidence improving - mergers may be back in a big way.
So what other deals could be on the horizon? Seymour Pierce believes a number of UK retailers could fall prey to US rivals:
"The takeover approach for Cadbury is likely to spur corporate departments into action and prompt other cross border deals between US and UK groups. The attractions of a deal for the US groups is that the US dollar has strengthened from over $2 per pound to the current rate of $1.65 over the last two years; the US groups are significantly larger in market capitalization terms and are more highly rated while the UK groups are more internationally developed."
The broke said the most obvious targets included Kingfisher, up 3.3p to 220.3p after the company rushed out better than expected profit figures this morning. It could easily be in the sights of Lowe's or Home Depot.
Seymour Pierce also repeated suggestions that US group Gamestop might pounce on Game Group, 6.7p better at 180.4p, and Best Buy might be interested in DSG, off 0.06p at 29.45p - despite Best Buy's link up with Carphone Warehouse in the UK.
There is also speculation of consolidation in the drinks industry, involving the likes of SABMiller or Diageo. Nomura said in a note on the sector:
"We see many of the Cadbury deal rationales cited by Kraft [to] have relevance for some operators in global beer. We would expect beer consolidation to continue as medium-size groups around the world look to widen their footprint (eg, Kirin, Asahi) and as some of the larger operators seek to improve their country weightings (eg, Heineken, SABMiller).
"Having slipped from joint number one in global beer to half the size of Anheuser-Busch InBev, we continue to see SABMiller as an acquirer of assets; given the history of acquisitions here, we believe the market could warm to an emerging market deal (such as Femsa or Anadolu Efes if family shareholders were to agree) but could be sceptical about a mature market deal such as Fosters or Molson-Coors."
As it happens SAB, up 2p at £14.54, has just announced the $19.25m purchase of the Maheu business in Zambia, but Nomura is probably thinking of rather larger deals than that.
As for Diageo, down 4.5p at 968p, Nomura thinks it would be interested in acquisitions, but perhaps not at current valuations. Nomura said:
"For Diageo with its relative low leverage, there are still buying opportunities in spirits, such as Moet-Hennessy, possibly the Jim Beam brand out of Fortune Brands or the Jose Cuervo tequila brand, but only if the seller's idea of valuation comes down. Without that, we see Diageo continuing to pursue its TBA (Total Beverage Alcohol) objective in the medium term and seeking a large alliance with a beer company such as Heineken or SABMiller."

(Adds landfall in Jamaica, curfew details)
By Horace Helps
KINGSTON, Jamaica, Oct 24 (Reuters) - Hurricane Sandy made
landfall on the southeast coast of Jamaica on Wednesday
afternoon, posing a major flood risk to low-lying areas near the
capital Kingston, hurricane forecasters said.
Schools and businesses closed and emergency authorities
moved residents in low-lying, flood-prone areas into shelters as
steady rain and winds pounded the Caribbean island.
There was little activity on the streets of Kingston as
residents heeded the call by authorities to stay home. Prime
Minister Portia Simpson Miller cut short a 5-day trip to Canada
to get home before the storm.
"We must all be careful. Those who can move into shelters
should do so now," she said.
Several roads were flooded and blocked by fallen trees, and
mudslides were reported near villages on the outskirts of
Kingston. The government closed the island's two international
airports in Kingston and Montego Bay on Tuesday night.
"They will remain closed until further notice," airports
spokesman John McFarlane said in a statement.
Police imposed curfews on 80 communities across Jamaica as a
deterrent to looting during the passage of the storm.
Looters shot and wounded a senior police officer on patrol
in one volatile community. Police confirmed that Senior
Superintendent of Police Terrence Bent, 44, was shot on
Wednesday afternoon as he led a group of policemen through an
section of West Kingston called Craig Town.
Hurricane Sandy was centered about 5 miles (8 kilometers)
east of Kingston and was moving north at 14 mph (22 kph) with
top sustained winds of 80 mph (130 kph), the U.S. National
Hurricane Center (NHC) said in a 3 p.m. EDT (1900 GMT) advisory.
A hurricane warning was in effect for both Jamaica and Cuba,
although forecasters said Sandy is expected to be a weak
Category One storm on the five-step Saffir-Simpson scale of
hurricane intensity, with winds topping out at 85 mph (137 kph).
Sandy's expected path will not take it into the Gulf of
Mexico, where U.S. oil and gas operations are clustered.
Computer models showed Sandy was on a projected path that
would cut across the middle of Jamaica, with the eye passing
close to Kingston and the popular north coast resort of Ocho
Rios, before moving over eastern Cuba and losing hurricane
strength as it reaches the Bahamas.
A hurricane watch was also issued on Wednesday for central
and northwestern Bahamas, and a tropical storm watch was in
place for south Florida, though computer models show the center
of Sandy is expected to pass well to the east of the Florida
"It is a big storm and it's going to grow in size after it
leaves Cuba," said Michael Brennan, a hurricane forecaster at
the NHC in Miami.
He said the storm's wind field was likely to extend 200
miles (322 km) west from the center as it passed over the
Bahamas, causing "very high surf and dangerous conditions all
the way up the east coast into the Carolinas."
Forecasters are not sure where it would go after that, with
some computer models showing it could pose a risk to the U.S.
Northeast early next week.
"It's too early to tell but there are some signs that have
it hooking back towards the mainland as a wintertime
'nor-easter,' said Brennan, referring to the powerful,
late-season storms that can form in the north Atlantic at this
time of year.
Sandy is expected to dump as much as 6 to 12 inches (15 to
30 cm) of rain across parts of Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican
Republic and eastern Cuba, with as much as 20 inches (50 cm)
possible in some places, forecasters said.
"These rains may produce life-threatening flash floods and
mudslides ... especially in areas of mountainous terrain," the
hurricane center warned.
Storm surge could also raise water levels on Jamaica's south
and east coasts by 1 to 3 feet (30.5 to 91 cm) above normal tide
levels, it added, and as much as 5 to 8 feet (1.5 to 2.4 metres)
above normal in the Bahamas on Friday.

Safety Tip: Buffet Etiquetteby Toby Amidor in Dining Out, Food Safety, September 11, 2009
Buffets are everywhere these days — Sunday brunch, wedding receptions or the local chain restaurant. I just got back from a trip to Israel, and our hotel even offered breakfast and dinner buffets. Now, I've seen some clean and well-managed buffets before, but this place's spread was definitely not one of them. Of course, it's not all the restaurant's fault. We diners can be beastly.
Big (and Little) Warning Signs
It sounds simple, but hot food should be hot and cold food should be cold. You shouldn't sit down to eat your plate of food only to find everything lukewarm. Check that steam tables are used properly. Food trays should sit securely in a warming pocket, not stacked one on top of the other. Same goes with the cold stuff. Refrigerated foods like milk, butter, cheese, cold cuts should all be on ice and kept chilled. If you find they aren't, skip them.
Another pet peeve is serving utensils. It always seems like someone made off with the mashed potato ladle. Buffets should have long-handled serving spoons for each item — no mixing, no sharing, period. (Just imagine if you have a food allergy and someone cross-contaminates!) Size matters, too. At one buffet, I saw diners dishing out ketchup with a teaspoon. I went without once I thought about how many hands had been in that ketchup. Gross.
Proper Etiquette
Buffets inspire bad habits — overeating and generally making a mess. To keep everyone's meal bacteria-free and healthy, keep these tips in mind:
- Grab a new plate. You may not want to waste plates, but get a fresh one for every food trip. You've dipped your fork back and forth on that plate and spread around your saliva (and germs!). That saliva can then get on the serving spoon when you dish out some more green beans. There's a reason your empty plates disappear so fast. The restaurant wants you to use newly washed plates so no one gets sick.
- Go up with your kids. I love kids (I have 3), but they can get into everything. Whether at the supermarket hot bar or an all-you-can-eat seafood place, kids will pick something up, taste it, dislike it and put it back.
- Ask if you don't know. Not sure which is the low-fat dressing? Don't taste test; ask the server. Of course, a smart restaurant will label their foods. If you're not sure you'll like it, dip a little on your plate to sample. (I once saw a diner taste food right off the serving spoon!)
TELL US: What's your best or worst buffet experience?

Successful biomarker research needs to be individual, sensitive and reproducible. In addition, the results of the analysis of large patient groups must be comparable. This is the only way to identify patient-specific reactions and to find unknown compounds in concentrations of clinical relevance. BioVisioN's unique peptidomics technologies fulfil every single one of these criteria. Thousands of native peptides can be analysed in parallel with an excellent detection limit in the picomolar range. The innovative sample preparation ensures that all important peptides are retained. After successful discovery biomarker candidates can be sequenced and identified with ease.
"Biomarker discovery is similar to a lottery", BioVisioN's CSO Dr. Peter Schulz-Knappe explains, "discovery strategies based on instruments or chip technologies only use one ticket to win the jackpot. We offer methods which analyse several thousand compounds in parallel, thus dramatically increasing the chance to win the first prize - at lower costs!" Using the chip technologies of the past, scientists need to know what they are looking for and therefore are often unable to find important biomarkers. The approach of BioVisioN also looks for the unknown and unexpected - at a up to 1000 times better resolution compared to instrument-based solutions.
BioVisioN offers to their customers a service to solve problems, not an inflexible device. This is another reason for the success since the customer defines work packages according to specific requirements. BioVisioN's services vary from a single sample preparation to the full scale R&D project including sequencing, identification, biological interpretation and validation of discovered biomarkers. With this integrated approach, BioVisioN represents the prototype of modern clinical research and development: goal-oriented, flexible and highly qualitative.

May 26, 2013
By Mason Nesbitt, TMC Sports Information Intern
LEWISTON, IDAHO—A visit from an old friend led to a real Lewiston experience.
My best friend as a kid was Charlie Ebbers. Our mothers, living in Albuquerque, were very close; so Charlie and I were constantly together from diapers 'till I moved at age seven.
And while we're still good friends, we've grown up to be two very different people.
Charlie loves the outdoors and wildlife. I love baseball.
He lives in Montana now, and Saturday he made the eight-hour drive to see me in Lewiston.
He arrived at the team hotel with a plan that seemed rather appropriate considering we were in twin cities named for Lewis and Clark on the historic Snake River.
While most of the team hung out at the hotel or watched other World Series games at Harris Field, Charlie and I went to explore Hell's Gate State Park. Not the most inviting name I've ever heard, but we made the five mile drive anyway.
An elderly entrance attendant said the park was hosting a free gun show. But when Charlie asked her what kinds of guns were on display, she responded, "I don't know one end of a gun from the other."
Hopefully she won't be handling a gun anytime soon.
We weren't there for the gun show however; we were there to see the Jack O'Connor Center. Now that guy knew how to handle a gun. The center's walls were covered in animal heads that O'Connor had shot in countries all over the world.
The lion, tiger and bear heads looked ready to pounce on us, if only the rest of their bodies were still attached. Charlie informed me that O'Conner was one of the most prolific big game hunters in history, and it was hard for me to disagree.
It wasn't as a killer however, that O'Connor made his living. It was as a writer. And there was a typewriter on display to prove it.
Apparently some people choose to write about baseball—others about killing Barren Ground Caribou in the Yukon Territory.
I hope I never meet a Caribou.
Charlie and I then went to the park's archery range. Charlie's bow was covered in real rattlesnake skin; I didn't want the story on how he'd managed that—I was thinking about snakes enough already as we walked past brush and holes to retrieve the arrows. But I did tell him about how all this was going to make a great column. He didn't care, "Don't think about what to write, just shoot the stinking bow," he said. Surprisingly, I only completely missed the target once.
The fun wasn't over just yet.
The O'Connor Center was showing a movie at 6 p.m. and we—along with about ten other adventurers—filed into a room for "Never Cry Wolf." An employee introduced the movie as being "about a boy who goes to Alaska to study wolves but learns more about himself than the wolves in the process."
We didn't stick around to find out what the boy learned about himself, but I'm sure it was mind blowing.
After escaping the O'Connor Center, it was time to leave Charlie's world, and head back to mine—a world Lewis and Clark wouldn't have recognized—fifteenth row up, on the first base side at Harris Field for the nightcap of Saturday's World Series games. I had to give Charlie a little bit of the World Series experience right?
Saturday made me even more thankful for our win over Northwood on Friday.
That win earned us a day off; a day to catch up with a good friend and share some laughs.
Sunday was also a day off, but Monday at 3 p.m. it's back to business. And that business won't be easy; Faulkner University is the tournament's number one seed.

Gucci Womenswear A/W12
Dark romance by Frida Giannini as Milan Fashion Week starts
- TextDazed Digital
- PhotographyMorgan O'Donovan
Frida Giannini has her Gucci girl sussed. Playing with different elements each season but having the long-term consistency of a palpable heroine. "I was watching Aymeline and when she wore it you really believed the story," says Dazed's Fashion Director Karen Langley. "It was a really accomplished show."
Giannini's femme is the girl with dark eyes, immaculately put together but with a contrasting dynamic going on in her head: an allure of insouciance. Musically, Bowie and The Velvet Underground are very likely glued to her turntable, whatever the time.
Following Spring/Summer's glorious modern art deco, the mood for Autumn/Winter is restless. The sun has set and the light has turned to aubergine, purple, burgundy, black and texture – the darkest romance. Capes, floor-length velvet skirts, great furs and poetic military jackets styled on shoulders the vocabulary. All with dark blood lips.

Police say two people have been arrested on suspicion of stealing tens of thousands of dollars of equipment from a ski shop in Truckee.
Thirty-three year old Randy Knutson-Ellis and 47-year-old Cynthia Morgan were arrested Friday. Truckee police say they were charged with criminal conspiracy and possession of stolen property.
Truckee Police Sgt. Mike Sherlock says the owner of the ski shop contacted authorities, saying he believed the pair had stolen equipment and were planning to sell it online. Knutson-Ellis and Morgan had legitimate access to the business at the time of the thefts.
Authorities obtained a search warrant for a home say they found stolen gear inside.
The value of the equipment was estimated at $37,000.
