Clams for People and Nature
We're talking about coastal habitat restoration and how these projects are changing the lives of people, improving economies, and repairing critical marine ecosystems. Celebrate how Restoration Works by learning more about these vital restoration projects and help us continue to protect and restore nature!
Clams for People and Nature
Next time you crave a bowl of clam chowder, think of the Great South Bay in New York.
In the 1970s, over half of all clams eaten in the United States came from Great South Bay.
But with no limits on the number clams that could be harvested, the clamming boom in the 1970s was followed by a catastrophic collapse of the clam population – a collapse that still is directly linked to environmental problems faced by the Bay today.
Clams are water filters. When clams in Great South Bay were abundant, they filtered 40 percent of the water every single day. Today, there are only enough hard clams to filter about one percent of this vast body of water daily. Without shellfish, water quality declines — and creatures that depend on clams, scallops, and oysters as food sources suffer, along with coastal economies
Restoration Works
Since 2004, The Nature Conservancy has been working to restore Great South Bay's clam population in a three-pronged approach:
- Stocking the bay with reproductive adult clams,
- Helping to enact laws to protect the existing clam populations, and
- Working with partners to restore degraded water quality.
"The new approach strikes a balance of respecting the interests of families traditionally engaged in commercial and recreational shellfishing, while giving the Great South Bay towns the tools they need to collaboratively work to rebuild and sustainably manage the hard clam resource moving forward in a fair and transparent way," said Carl LoBue, senior marine scientist for The Nature Conservancy on Long Island.
"What the new limits mean is that when clams become abundant again, they won't be over-harvested. Instead, as clams become more abundant over time, the towns can relax regulations by allowing more clams to be harvested."
We can all raise a cup—or bowl—of clam chowder to that.
You can help our coastal restoration efforts to ensure habitats that are important to people and nature are healthy and resilient for generations to come.

GLENS FALLS - The Adirondack Phantoms called up winger Jason Akeson from the ECHL this week to provide a much-needed spark to their struggling offense and off-and-on power play.
Check and check.
In his American Hockey League season debut, Adirondack's leading scorer from last season recorded three primary assists in a nine-minute span and led the Phantoms to a 5-1 victory over the Bridgeport Sound Tigers Wednesday night at Glens Falls Civic Center.
Akeson, a second-year pro who began the season with the Trenton Titans, set up second-period goals scored by Harry Zolnierczyk, Sean Couturier and Brayden Schenn as the Phantoms (7-8) outshot the Sound Tigers (10-5) by a 18-6 margin in the frame and 34-23 on the night.
"It's the guys I'm playing around," said Akeson, who skated even-strength shifts on a line with Zolnierczyk and Couturier and saw time on Adirondack's No. 1 power play unit, which scored three goals. "I like to make plays. When people are finishing them off, it makes me look good."
Akeson, who tallied 55 points in 76 games with the Phantoms last season, was surprisingly left off Adirondack's opening night roster last month. His skating and two-way play in training camp did not impress new Phantoms coach Terry Murray and he was sent to the ECHL to work on both.
But the Phantoms entered their six-game homestand averaging 2.43 goals per game, 23rd in the 30-team AHL, and playmaker Akeson was summoned after posting 10 points in 14 ECHL games.
"His play was good," Murray said of Akeson. "I thought he was pretty responsible in the checking part of the game and he played the game with tempo. He moved his feet. That was something I didn't see throughout the training camp. He's quick, he's fast and I like to see him play that way."
On feeds from Akeson, Couturier and Schenn scored power-play goals seven minutes apart in the second period. Winger Tye McGinn, in his first game back after missing three with an injury, added another in the third period as the Phantoms finished 3-for-7 with the man advantage.
Adirondack's three power play goals were a single-game season high. The Phantoms' five total goals were the most they scored in a game since tallying six against Portland on opening night.
"The guys really were focused from the start of the game," Murray said. "It was smart plays coming out of our own end. Our defensemen were real good at moving the puck up when they had to. We had the forecheck going, got some good pressure in the offensive zone and scored some timely goals."
The floodgates opened after Zolnierczyk beat Bridgeport goaltender Kevin Poulin (29 saves) 13 seconds into the second period, three seconds after another Adirondack power play expired.
The winger nearly scored on four separate occasions in the opening frame.
"We were definitely more consistent," Zolnierczyk said. "We just stuck to our game plan. Even if it didn't work out in the first period, we just stuck to it and it eventually paid off for us."
The game's next four goals came on the power play.
Couturier scored on a five-on-three at 1:42 of the second to put Adirondack up 2-0.
Bridgeport's Jon Landry cut the deficit to one at 4:21, but Schenn buried a cross-ice pass at 8:50 to give the Phantoms a 3-1 lead. He finished with a goal and two assists.
McGinn redirected Couturier's point-shot at 8:32 of the third to make it 4-1.
"We switched up a little bit our set up,"�Couturier said. "We kept it simple and put some pucks on net. That's what we needed to do."
Winger Shane Harper rounded out the scoring with an even-strength goal at with 3:23 left in regulation, banging Rob Bordson's centering feed past an out-of-position Poulin.
Goalie Scott Munroe made 22 saves for Adirondack, which rebounded from back-to-back 5-2 losses.
"We know we've been slacking lately," McGinn said. "We have to start turning it around now. I think the guys are really starting to understand that and we're coming out hard."

Diesel and cold weather
I've been looking for a new tow vehicle for my centurion. I might be getting an older ford or chevy diesel. I would be looking for late 90's trucks, and will use the truck as a winter beater.
Being in Canada, I'm just wondering if they are reliable starting in cold weather. They have a bad reputation for that. What you guys are thinking about this?
Either buy one with a block heater or install one yourself. When I get into my truck in the winter my temp gauge is sitting at 130.
I've got a 1999 powerstroke. The first year i had it, it was horrible starting. Even plugged in it wouldn't start below -5 (fehrenheit). Last fall i changed to 5W-40 Rotella full synthetic, and it now starts at our cabin down to -10 without being plugged in.... it chugged and caughed for awhile but it started. Plugged in i've fired it as low as -20. We're in MN so our winters are probably much weaker than yours. It's also not my daily driver, only my toy hauler.
I've been told, but can't confirm that the block heaters are 1800 Watt units. Basically running a space heater outside everynight. It could get expensive if you had to do that on a daily basis. You could always install a timer on your wall outlet though...
Good luck.
1999.5- 2000 7.3, great motors, and these years have forged rods :) Started great in the winter, new batteries with some high cold cranking amps will do the trick.
Ya better batteries and a OEM aftermarket starter will generally fire it up.... BUT as Steven said, they can definitely have their issues. I've never dealt with those kind of temps so I can not speak from experience.
For late 90's I'd get a Dodge diesel (cummins). The chevy's were ****, for sure.
I've heard that the 90's chevy diesel is not a good engine so go with a Ford or a Dodge.
The GM 6.5TD's could be made pretty reliable, but dump them as an option and get a GM gasser if that's your budget there.
Best option is the Cummins, 24V, find one with a new VP44 pump or expect to replace it and the lift pump.
Early Dmax, great truck, I'd argue better than the Dodge except for high milers over 250k miles.
FInd one with no history of injector problems or fresh injectors though.
Powerstroke. 99-03 7.3's great engine. Hardest starting in cold weather of all of them in my experience. They tend to take more maint with glow plug replacement and even then seem to be more cold blodded than the others. Otherwise another solid option.
FWIW, my 02 DMax and 07 5.9 Cummins both start(ed) easily and unassisted in cold, -20F, weather easily without even being plugged in. Even after extended periods of a week or 2.
I'd still reccomend plugging them in for sure though.
The 7.3 Pstrokes I've been around don't start for crap in the cold unless plugged in.
Will totally depend on how cold it is....I have started my 02 7.3L in temps around 0 degrees F without plugging it in.....I had to cycle the glows plugs a few times and it took a few trys and once it started it was not happy and had to be warmed up for 15 minutes..... this is after the 3rd year of cold weather and no plug in....its definitely taking its toll (new glow plugs wouldn't hurt) but if you can plug it in....you will be fine. I think my manual says plug in isn't required until like -15 F or so...
Most people who talk about the Chevy 6.5 TD have no idea about them. I have had two of them and my current DD is a '96 Suburban 6.5td. I get 18 MPG lifted with 33's & It tows my Malibu VLX without a whimper. Is it a match for a Cummins or Powerstroke? Power wise probably not but all and all I have had it for 200k and have had almost no problems at all. Our farm truck has 280k and has been stone reliable also. It often hauls a 10' camper and 3 horse trailer over the Santiam pass. Move the PMD, bigger exhaust, remap and a turbo-master and you have a great truck. Cheap & easy to work on.......................Find me a another diesel SUV that can do all this for $6000?...........................I won't speak to the Dodge or Ford as I have oly rode in them..........
Go with a dodge with the 5.9 cummins or a ford 7.3 powerstroke I have owned both and I live in colorado where the winters get pretty harsh and I had no problems. Stay clear from any early t late 90's chevys they were crap!
i had a 02 7.3 powestroke without a block heater
in the ohio winters it would start fine as low as -5. once it went to -10 it would have trouble turning it over.
Here in MT when I was working at the dealership, whenever my service manager told me to go get a diesel from the lot for service, I always brought a jump-box out there with me. (2 jump-boxes if it was a 7.3)
I assume it gets as-cold or colder there in the winter, so I would say there is a good chance of having some problems. You can plug them-in, and that helps some for sure. The synthetic 5w-40 is also a good idea. Just make-sure you have 2 good batteries and don't leave it sitting for more than a few days at a time. You should be alright. Don't rule-out the option of the 454 Chevy gassers. They will use more gas for sure, but if you don't drive it much, who cares?

I don't know if this is a bug or intentional but here's this-
In the memory 'An uneasy meeting' (where you eavesdrop on Tarik and Ahmet) , if you use an arrow storm right after the first cutscene, and Suleiman is about to live, he flinches and goes into open conflict with you. He is apparently unkillable, weapons, hookvlade manuevera and bombs do nothing. Counters all your punches and grabs and countering his punches do nothing. Apparently, he also says unique(?) dialog like "I should have trained more with father","Where did you learn to fight? A ship?" and "Nice move, terrible footwork"(so that means it was intentional?) Summoned assassins can't harm him and he follows you everywhere until you get into more conflicts.
So, anyone else knows about this or has it been reported before somewhere?

AggregateCacheDependency Class
The .NET API Reference documentation has a new home. Visit the .NET API Browser on docs.microsoft.com to see the new experience.
Combines multiple dependencies between an item stored in an ASP.NET application's Cache object and an array of CacheDependency objects. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
Initializes a new instance of the AggregateCacheDependency class.
Gets a value indicating whether the CacheDependency object has changed.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
Gets the time when the dependency was last changed.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
Adds an array of CacheDependency objects to the AggregateCacheDependency object.
Releases the resources used by the CacheDependency object.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.)
Completes initialization of the CacheDependency object.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
Gets the file dependencies.(Overrides CacheDependency.GetFileDependencies().)
Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
Retrieves a unique identifier for the AggregateCacheDependency object.(Overrides CacheDependency.GetUniqueID().)
Called when a monitored cache entry is removed.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
Updates the last access time of every cache item that depends on this item.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
|SetCacheDependencyChanged(Action<Object, EventArgs>)
Adds an Action method to handle notifying interested party in changes to this dependency.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
Allows the first user to declare exclusive ownership of this dependency.(Inherited from CacheDependency.)
Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.)
The AggregateCacheDependency class monitors a collection of dependency objects so that when any of them change, the cached item is automatically removed. The objects in the array can be CacheDependency objects, SqlCacheDependency objects, custom objects derived from CacheDependency, or any combination of these.
The AggregateCacheDependency class differs from the CacheDependency class in that it allows you to associate multiple dependencies of different types with a single cached item. For example, if you create a page that imports data from a SQL Server database table and an XML file, you can create a SqlCacheDependency object to represent a dependency on the database table and a CacheDependency to represent the dependency on the XML file. Rather than making an Cache.Insert method call for each dependency, you can create an instance of the AggregateCacheDependency class with each dependency added to it. You can then use a single Insert call to make the page dependent on the AggregateCacheDependency instance.
The following code example uses the AggregateCacheDependency class to add a DataSet, named XMLDataSet, to the cache that is dependent on a text file and an XML file.
' When the page is loaded, use the ' AggregateCacheDependency class to make ' a cached item dependent on two files. Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Dim Source As DataView Source = Cache("XMLDataSet") If Source Is Nothing Dim DS As New DataSet Dim FS As FileStream Dim Reader As StreamReader Dim txtDep As CacheDependency Dim xmlDep As CacheDependency Dim aggDep As AggregateCacheDependency FS = New FileStream(Server.MapPath("authors.xml"),FileMode.Open,FileAccess.Read) Reader = New StreamReader(FS) DS.ReadXml(Reader) FS.Close() Source = new DataView(ds.Tables(0)) ' Create two CacheDependency objects, one to a ' text file and the other to an XML file. ' Create a CacheDependency array with these ' two objects as items in the array. txtDep = New CacheDependency(Server.MapPath("Storage.txt")) xmlDep = New CacheDependency(Server.MapPath("authors.xml")) Dim DepArray() As CacheDependency = {txtDep, xmlDep} ' Create an AggregateCacheDependency object and ' use the Add method to add the array to it. aggDep = New AggregateCacheDependency() aggDep.Add(DepArray) ' Call the GetUniqueId method to generate ' an ID for each dependency in the array. msg1.Text = aggDep.GetUniqueId() ' Add the new data set to the cache with ' dependencies on both files in the array. Cache.Insert("XMLDataSet", Source, aggDep) If aggDep.HasChanged = True Then chngMsg.Text = "The dependency changed at: " & DateTime.Now Else chngMsg.Text = "The dependency changed last at: " & aggDep.UtcLastModified.ToString() End If cacheMsg1.Text = "Dataset created explicitly" Else cacheMsg1.Text = "Dataset retrieved from cache" End If MyLiteral.Text = Source.Table.TableName MyDataGrid.DataSource = Source MyDataGrid.DataBind() End Sub Public Sub btn_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs ) If (MyTextBox.Text = String.Empty) Then msg2.Text ="You have not changed the text file." Else msg2.Text="You added " & MyTextBox.Text & "." ' Create an instance of the StreamWriter class ' to write text to a file. Dim sw As StreamWriter sw = File.CreateText(Server.MapPath("Storage.txt")) ' Add some text to the file. sw.Write("You entered:") sw.WriteLine(MyTextBox.Text) ' Write arbitrary objects to the file as needed. sw.Write("Text added at:") sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now) sw.WriteLine("-------------------") sw.Close() End If End Sub

INDIANAPOLIS — OCT. 3, 2013 —Today, 925 million people worldwide do not have enough food to eat to sustain themselves. One in five people in Greater Indianapolis are hungry and 50 percent of those hungry are children. This is why Indianapolis-based Dow AgroSciences has launched an employee-led food security initiative in collaboration with Indianapolis Hunger Network and international organizations. This initiative aims to develop sustainable solutions, leveraging Dow AgroSciences employees' deep knowledge and experience in agriculture, to create innovative practical solutions to hunger.
Working with some of the leading food security, agricultural and education organizations, the objectives of the Dow AgroSciences food security initiative include:
• Collaborating with leading organizations to help the hungry in Indianapolis access the nutritious food they need;
• Initiating collaborative food security and agronomics education projects with key partners in Africa;
• Enhancing Dow AgroSciences' impact on cassava improvement (cassava is the staple daily diet for more than 500 million people in sub-Saharan Africa, and has been threatened by disease);
• Supporting key organizations to increase the impact of their existing food security programs; and
• Increasing public awareness and understanding of the realities of food insecurity.
"We are committed to serving the needs of the growing world," said Gordon Slack, Dow AgroSciences Global Leader, Finance and Public Affairs. "Our people are passionate about finding innovative ways to solve some of the world's most complex problems. Our global food security initiative is just one way we are demonstrating our commitment to those in need and living out our brand promise: Working together to deliver on the promise of agriculture."
During a year-long planning process, Dow AgroSciences and collaborating organizations developed a comprehensive strategy that leverages proven food security programs and creates new programs to serve the hungry and help farmers in developing countries effectively implement sustainable agricultural practices.
The Dow AgroSciences food security initiative will initially address the needs of the hungry in two geographies – Greater Indianapolis and Kenya. The goal of the work in these geographies is to increase awareness and understanding of global food insecurity issues and their interconnectivity with modern agricultural practices. The next phase of activity will be to expand the initiatives to other geographies.
Dow AgroSciences employees will support and leverage the data-driven programming of the Indy Hunger Network to address identified root causes of food insecurity in Greater Indianapolis. The Indy Hunger Network aims by 2015 to bridge an estimated 20 million meal gap in the food supply for the hungry.
Globally, Dow AgroSciences will focus its resources on addressing food insecurity in Africa. Initially, this will be accomplished in Kenya, in part, through a collaborative agreement with AMPATH-Kenya. Established in 1997, AMPATH is a collaboration between Kenya's Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, Moi University, and a consortium of North American Universities. AMPATH, as well as other collaborating institutions, will serve as conduits for fostering relationship-building, knowledge-sharing, and cultural understanding among farmers, agricultural educators, students and scientists. In addition, Dow AgroSciences will work to enhance education and capacity-building, local-area access to sustainable agriculture resources, on-the-ground support, employee involvement and connectivity within the global agricultural community.
"We are fortunate to have collaborating organizations that have made tremendous strides in addressing food insecurity," said Slack. "With their help, we hope to make a difference in the lives of those suffering and create sustainable solutions for the long-term."

With the Super Bowl here once again it's impossible to not think about sports. Most men I've dated have had a visceral attachment to a team, or a sport, or a player and perhaps by coincidence or by design, many of them are from Chicago. So I have endured season after season of hopeful yet always disappointed Cubs fans and loyal yet always disgruntled Bears fans. I won't even go into the Bulls or Blackhawks. I never understood why grown intelligent men yelled at the TV, wore team jerseys even at home and truly felt anguish over a loss like it was their own puppy that died. Or conversely felt proud of a win, like their energy and will alone helped propel the team to victory. I have had coutless sterotypical arguments with boyfriends about being a "football widow" and I just didn't get sports fanaticism until my ex-husband said something brilliant, "Reality shows are your sports." According to Nielsen ratings, reality shows are sports for many other women as well. They are filled with protagonists, villians, competition, desire and drama.
I watch every episode of Project Runway, pick a designer to root for at the beginning of the season, and hang on every scrap of fabric, misplaced scissors, and runway show. I am outraged when the judges vote the wrong person off and hate when my pick isn't getting the kudos he or she deserves. If my favorite contestant is booted early it doesn't make me turn the show off since I'm already so invested that I continue to watch to see who the final winner will be. I watch The Amazing Race year after year and play along at home, deciding what detour I would take (the longer but predictable challenge or the fast but precarious one) how I would best literally find a needle in a haystack and if given the opportunity would I play dirty and steal a cab from the team right on my heels. I sometimes catch myself yelling at the players, "The clue is right there! Behind you!" When watching So You Think You Can Dance I am amazed at the skill level and athleticism of the performers and I leap off the couch when the judges give my favorite a standing ovation.
Different reality shows air at different times of the year so like baseball season, basketball season and football season, I have seasons of my own. American Idol season being the most important of all. Tuesday nights my boyfriend is an "Idol Widower" and this year he has actually taken to watching the show with me.
During "Hollywood Week" I pick a singer to root for, join an Idol pool, watch with baited breath, and recap my favorite moments with my friends. I sometimes even pause and replay the best performances. I was genuinely sad when my favorites Chris Daughtry from season 5 and Adam Lambert from season 8 were robbed of the win and now understand just a little bit what it must feel like to be a Cubs fan. The injustice!
Today when the Super Bowl is on and my boyfriend paces around the TV, shouts at players, and feels the rush of elation and disappointment I can now not only empathize, but also sympathize. Go team go!

Witcher 3 - VGX 2013 Trailer

"That may be true, but I'm a fighter and a leader! I'm strong but fair, and often misunderstood. I will correct you with tactical knowledge rather than blame you or question "why?". I'm definitely a player you'd want in your group if you wanted to slay the dragon, but I have little patience in waiting while you listen to every sob story of petty townsfolk beneath me. I AM THE HERO!"
The Witcher games are designed to allow you to role play as Geralt of Rivia, a pre defined character. You cannot role play the Witcher games as anything other than Geralt of Rivia. The above quote illustrates that you have not bought into the character Geralt of Rivia since he is nothing like what you described above and there for you will not enjoy the Witcher games.
Your initial complaint was this
"Witcher games need more loot. If they made it like Dark Souls with heaps of weapons I'd be more interested. "
But it makes no sense for Geralt to want "heaps of weapons" so they game wasn't designed to have this. I don't believe the new game will have this either.
There is a separate debate about the merits of playing a pre defined character in a RPG but if you remove or alter the character of Geralt then you won't have a Witcher game anymore since Geralt is the Witcher and defines the nature of the game.

Rovers reject Hoskins bid
Skysports.com understands Bristol Rovers have rejected a bid from Scunthorpe for Will Hoskins.
By Pete O'Rourke
Last Updated: 30/12/10 10:42pm
Skysports.com understands Bristol Rovers have rejected a bid from Scunthorpe United for Will Hoskins.
The striker has impressed for Rovers since joining the club on a free transfer from Watford over the summer.
He has scored 11 goals in all competitions for the Pirates and has been linked with a January move back to the Championship.
Scunthorpe are understood to have shown an interest in the 24-year-old and have seen their opening gambit turned down by Rovers.
Caretaker Rovers boss Darren Patterson admitted earlier this week that he expected Hoskins to attract interest following his form since moving to the Memorial Stadium.
However, Patterson is confident that Hoskins will remain focused on his football ahead of the New Year's Day game against MK Dons.

BOSTON - They were swept and outscored in the four games 20-7, but the Philadelphia Flyers still were reluctant to show the Boston Bruins much respect.
Im not going to say the better team won, but the team that was playing better is moving on, said Flyers defenceman Sean ODonnell after the Bruins eliminated the Flyers with a 5-1 win Friday night at the TD Garden. They are hitting on all cylinders right now. We put in a good effort tonight, (but) it just seems we werent hitting on all cylinders. It seemed like when we did get a chance it was jumping over a stick, or they were getting a stick in the lane. Their second goal to go up by one went off a shaft. Im not taking anything away - they deserved the series - but it seemed like we were a little bit off and they were playing real well.
The Flyers were victimized by some poor defensive play in the series and the annual story of chaos in goal. Sergei Bobrovsky started Friday night after coming on in relief of Brian Boucher in the first three games of the series. They were without big defenceman Chris Pronger for the last three games with rumours he is suffering from a herniated disc.
We just mentioned that in there (the dressing room), said Flyers coach Peter Laviolette of Prongers absence. You just notice the impact a guy like (Zdeno) Chara has on the other side and when you dont have your big guy in there. (Pronger) plays the same style and the same way. You certainly miss him.
But I have never been one to to really use injuries as an excuse. We had good players in the lineup and opportunities to win some games and we didnt.

San Diego's military community is mourning a Navy SEAL who died in a parachuting accident.
Chief Special Warfare Operator Bradley Cavner, 31, died June 23 during the training exercise in El Centro.
On Sunday, family and friends packed Coronado High School, Cavner's alma mater.
Some high school classmates remembered Cavner as a humble, soft-spoken man, but close friends said he was also sarcastic, aggressive when necessary, quirky and charismatic.
Cavner served in Iraq and Afghanistan and earned more than 10 medals since joining the Navy in 2003. Some classmates said they didn't even realize how decorated Brad was until his death.
Growing up in the tight-knit Coronado community, friends said it's like losing a family member.
"You're a part of a family so when you see one of your own die so early, it's very upsetting," high school classmate Leighanne Lewis said. "In a way, he died for his country, which is awesome and amazing because he gave his life, but still so devastating. You don't just get over it."
Friends said Cavner's father served on the Coronado Police force.
After the memorial service, mourners made their way to Danny's Palm Bar and Grill on Orange Avenue. In the early 2000s, Danny's started the tradition of hanging photos of fallen SEALs on the restaurant's walls.
Employees said there are about 50 pictures on the wall and are saddened to have to add one more.

Heckscher-Ohlin Theory
Consider two countries whose representative consumers have the same preferences given by U(CC;CF ) = CC CF
and U* (CC*;CF*_) = CC*CF*_ . The two countries share the same production technologies which are given by
QC = Lc2/3 Kc1/3 , QF= LF1/3 KF2/3
The home country is endowed with 400 units of capital and 300 units of labor, while the foreign country is
endowed with 100
units of capital and 50 units of labor.
1. Answer the following questions for the home country, then for the foreign country:
(a) It turns out that in autarky equilibrium the wage-rent ratio is 1.333 for the home country and 2 for the foreign country. Find the capital-labor ratio used in each industry.
(b) Calculate the number of workers employed and the amount of capital used in each industry in autarky equilibrium (find LcA ;LFA ;KcA ;KFA ) where A means under Autarky.
(c) Calculate the autarky production (= consumption) for each industry (QcA and QFA).
(d) Derive the autarky price ratio, (Pc/ PF)A, and the real value of production in autarky.
(e) Calculate the real wage rate ( w/PF) and the real rate of return oncapital ( r/PF) in autarky.
(f) Calculate real total factor income. Is it equal to the real value of production that you derived in question 2d?
2. It turns out that in the free-trade equilibrium the wage-rent ratio for both countries is 1.4287. Find the capital-labor ratio used in each industry.
3. Calculate the number of workers employed and the amount of capital used in each industry in free trade for each country.
4. What are the quantities produced of clothing and food in the home and in the foreign country?
5. Calculate the price ratio in free
trade as well as free trade consumption in each country (Find (Pc/ PF
)T , CcT, CFT, CC*T,
6. Determine real GDP in each country.
7. Determine the real interest rate and real wage rate in each country.
8. Calculate real total factor income
for each country.
9. Calculate each country's exports and imports.
10. Calculate the autarky and free trade utility for each country.
11. Has each country benefited from trade?
12. Does the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem hold? Explain briefly
13. Does the Factor-Price Equalization Theorem hold? Explain briefly
14. Does the Stolper-Samuelson Theorem hold? Explain briefly

Week 13 brought a lot of change to the Playoffs Predictor. Clearly no team wants to make the playoffs as a wild card in the NFC, as the Atlanta Falcons, Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys all lost, though in varying fashions. The bad news for the Bears, who fell out of the top six: The Falcons play only one team above .500 the rest of the way.
In the AFC, the Denver Broncos continued their meteoric rise and now lead the AFC West, while the New York Jets got back into the thick of the playoff race with a win in Washington.
Below is how the 2012 NFL playoff bracket looks as of today, according to numberFire's projections.
Please note that all rankings refer to the opponent-adjusted efficiency as calculated by numberFire, not the gross yardage.

Talented and mentally tough, Rory McIlroy's the real deal
We pose the question on our front page – what more is there to say about Rory McIlroy? Quite rightly we find plenty more reasons for lauding the Co Down golfer who has already – at the age of just 25 – carved out a reputation as arguably Northern Ireland's greatest ever sports star.
He is top of the tree in a truly global sport and as his latest major win has confirmed now has the mental steel and fighting qualities to handle the most intense pressure. We always knew he had the talent but these other qualities are also needed to be more than just a shooting star. We are confident that Rory is the real deal.

January 5, 2011
A Spanish judge has opened a probe into a raid by Iraqi security forces on a camp housing an Iranian exile group in July 2009 which left 11 people dead.
Judge Fernando Andreu is looking into whether crimes against humanity were committed when the troops took control of Camp Ashraf in Diyala province.
He said he had summoned Diyala's police chief to Madrid to answer questions.
Under Spain's universal justice doctrine, grave crimes committed in other countries can be prosecuted.

Herzog Backs Down on Rabbinic Court Bill
Social Affairs Minister Isaac Herzog (Labor) has backtracked on a bill he proposed expanding the judiciary powers of the rabbinic courts to include civil matters. Haaretz has learned that Herzog decided not to pursue the legislation following opposition within the Labor faction and harsh criticism by Orthodox women's groups and senior figures in the justice system.
"Concerns and anxieties over erosion of the status of the justice system have not escaped my attention." Herzog told Haaretz. "With the agreement of Labor Party Chairman Ehud Barak, Labor ministers and faction members, I support the freezing of the legislation," Herzog added.
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert had promised an amendment to the Rabbinic Courts Law to Shas as part of the coalition agreement with the ultra-Orthodox party. It had already been approved by the ministerial committee for legislation, but Herzog had led its formulation in recent months. He had objected to an earlier bill granting wider powers to the rabbinic courts.
The bill would have given rabbinic courts the right to rule on financial and civil disputes if both parties chose to do so. According to the bill, disputes between a couple after their divorce could also be heard by the rabbinic court, if the couple so chose.
Debate blocked
The cabinet prevented a debate on the matter earlier this week for fear of a confrontation between Labor and Shas ministers. During the Labor faction meeting Sunday, MK Shelly Yachimovich told Herzog that the attack on him was "just the beginning" if he continued "to do things behind the backs" of his electorate and the faction.
Labor's Agriculture Minister Shalom Simhon has registered an objection to the bill, and it is to be returned to the cabinet for further discussion.
Retired Supreme Court justice Dalia Dorner told an Orthodox women's conference Sunday that she was "deathly afraid" of agreements between Kadima and Shas to expand the powers of the rabbinic courts.
Herzog yesterday insisted that his bill was intended to "significantly minimize damage to women in the divorce process." The original bill, proposed by Justice Minister Daniel Friedmann, sought to grant the rabbinic courts even wider powers. Herzog said he had formulated the bill in cooperation with women's organization to help women whose husbands had refused to grant them a divorce.
Shas also objected to Herzog's bill, which would remove powers the rabbinic courts now have. At present, the rabbinic court issuing a divorce has the exclusive right to discuss future violations of the agreement, while Herzog's bill allows the rabbinic court to continue hearing the case after the divorce only if both partners agree.

MOURN on the 4th of July!
Independence Day
Many Christians are very patriotic, and support the Declaration of Independence and America's Revolutionary War for Independence.
How can this be?
Analyzing America's Declaration of Independence from a Biblical standpoint is an easy task. The following passages should be consulted:
Romans 12-13 / 1 Peter 2:13ff / Matthew 5:38ff / Luke 17:7-10 / Jude 8-10 / 2 Peter 2:10-12
An anachronistic "translation" of these passages follows for your convenience.
Then we can look at the Declaration of Independence.
Romans12-13 {1} I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
{2} And be not conformed to the world of the Scottish Enlightenment: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
{3} For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
{10} Be kindly affectioned one to the British with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
{11} Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
{12} Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
{13} Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitable quartering of troops.
{14} Bless the "Red Coats" which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
{16} Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.
{17} Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
{18} If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with the British.
{19} Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
{20} Therefore if an enemy soldier hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
{21} Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
{13:1} Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are set in place by God.
{2} Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, throwing tea into the harbor, or firing muskets upon them from behind trees, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
{3} For archist red coats are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
{4} For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
{5} Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
{6} For for this cause pay ye taxes without representation: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
{7} Render therefore to all their dues: taxes to whom taxes are due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
{8} Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
{9} For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
{10} Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
1 Peter 2:11-24Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
{12} Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
{13} Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to king George III, as supreme;
{14} Or unto parliament, as unto them that are sent by Him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
{15} For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
{16} As free, and not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
{17} Honour all the British. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
{18} Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
{19} For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
{20} For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
{21} For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps:
{22} Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth:
{23} Who, when He was reviled, reviled not again; when He suffered, He threatened not; but committed Himself to Him that judgeth righteously:
{24} Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by Whose stripes ye were healed.
Matthew 5:38-48Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
{39} But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
{40} And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
{41} And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
{42} Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
{43} Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
{44} But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
{45} That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
{46} For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
{47} And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
{48} Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Luke 17:7-10And which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, "Come at once and sit down to eat"?
{8} But will he not rather say to him, "Prepare something for my supper, and gird yourself and serve me till I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you will eat and drink"?
{9} Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not.
{10} So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, "We are unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do."
2Peter 2:10-12/Jude 8-10 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
{9} Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
{12} But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
Proverbs 24:21My son, fear the LORD and the king; Do not associate with those given to change; for their calamity will rise suddenly, and who knows the ruin those two can bring?
Exodus 23:2Thou shalt not follow a crowd to do evil.
Now, with these passages of Scripture ringing in our ears, elet's ask some probing questions about the Declaration of Independence.

I did some painting on the PSD file and came up with a different angle and converted the painting into AI and I think the result was better. I still have doubts if this new design will be accepted for the contest.
Humans, I would like to listen your thoughts and suggestions.

If the San Francisco sheriff can't get invited to a Valentine's Day domestic violence awareness rally, he'll have his own party.
A dance party. A flash dance party -- in jail.
Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi is planning a "flash mob-style dance" at the San Bruno-based County Jail on Thursday, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
Mirkarimi's event is a counter-event to the City Hall rally planned, according to reports. Mirkarimi has largely been shunned by the city's leadership after last year's saga involved an incident of domestic violence with his wife, Eliana. Mirkarimi nearly lost his job after he pleaded guilty to one count of misdemeanor false imprisonment.
Prisoners and staffers at the jail will perform "Break the Chain," part of the international "One Billion Rising" campaign, the newspaper reported.
Below is a video that may preview what's coming for the jail. Imagine folks doing this but in uniform.

Re: Received disability award letter by mistake???
I am so sorry that happen to you, But I wonder if you already have enough evdience to support your claim and thats why they jump the gun so to speak. But maybe they need that DR. there sending you to just to have his signuture to close the case from what I read on this board sometimes the DR. they send you to doesn't really spend that much time anyway so maybe you can tell that DR. they approved you based on the evdience they have on hand but they sent you here. I don't wont to give you wrong advice but I would keep checking on this board maybe someone else with better knowledge has more input. Oh hope for the best and maybe everything will turn out good for you it sounds like they already approved you and just need the DR. to sign. Please keep us posted please we all care and are wishing the best and its an approval.

A suicide bomber blew himself up at a market in eastern Afghanistan, killing a civilian and wounding eight others, an official said Sunday.
The bomber's target in the Saturday attack was an intelligence officer in Samkanai district of Paktia province, said Rohulla Samun, the spokesman for Paktia's governor.
He missed the target but killed one civilian and wounded eight others at Samkanai's market, Samun said.
Militants regularly launch suicide attacks against Afghan and foreign troops in the country. The majority of the victims in such attacks are civilians.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Child Enrichment Inc, Augusta, GA, USA
My experience with Child Enrichment comes by way of hearing about the work that they do in the community, and then meeting Dan Hilman and Sheila Stubberfield and then I became a Board Memeber. They are very serious about the protection, healing and facilitating justice for the children and families that come under their wing. They do a service for a population that the majority of people would be happpier not thinking about. The reality is child abuse happends, and I am glad that Child Enrichment is around to help put the pieces back together for the child and family.

If food is the festival, then wine is the fireworks. Here is a fool-proof way of how you should choose your wine:
Complementing Principle
- Complement principle involves choosing a wine that is similar in some way to the dish.
- Wine should not dominate food or vice versa. Always look for the right balance.
Match weight/ richness of food with similar body of the wine. Contribution of sauce is also the important factor in giving the base/weight to food.
The flavour intensity of both food and wine should be similar but also need to consider cooking method. e.g. . Steam fish vs. Tandoori fish
Tomatoes, lemons, curd and vinegar are all having high acidity which form a base in food. Wine with low acidity will taste less vibrant and less refreshing therefore the acidic ingredients in the food should be matched by refreshing acidity wine
Contrast Principle
- Characteristics of food and wine that are dissimilar to each other, the contrast principle seeks to find flavours or texture in the wine that aren't in the food but that would enhance it.
- Salty food is enhanced with touch of sweetness in the wine. Think of an example of Roquefort cheese and Sauternes wine.
- Wine with touch of sweetness can tone down the spiciness of the food, thus, making it a more pleasant dining experience

Saw GWAR last night. So, I'm plenty inspired to post about fucking dance music—
They executed a priest, Hitler, human Jesus, cyborg Jesus and ma boy B-Rak Obama. Shit is fucking hardcore. So fittingly, here's RAC's remix of Bonafied Lovin':
This is more fitting maybe—time of year and everything. Check this guy out. He's still pretty small and then later you can say you knew about him first which is the dream, isn't it? Lot's of Kavinsky/Danger influences in there. Real Hank style: Moody.
And his remix of Giorgio Moroder's Chase:
This is a fun tempo changer or if you like D'n'B it's a fun track in general. It starts and ends at the same bpm so DJs have fun and don't worry about having to find another D'n'B track that drops back into the familiar.

Cougar men earn No. 2 seed, host Bethany Wednesday
The University of Minnesota, Morris will host the opening round of the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference men's basketball tournament on Wednesday, Feb. 23.
The Cougars earned the No. 2 seed and will host No. 3 Bethany Lutheran at 7:30 p.m. The Cougars have defeated the Vikings twice this season, including a 78-59 win on Jim Gremmels Court.
The Cougars finish the regular season 14-11 overall with a 10-4 UMAC record, their best conference mark since the 2004-05, 11-win championship team.
UM-Morris 76
St. Scholastica 73
The Cougars overcame a halftime deficit Friday, Feb. 18, to defeat host St. Scholastica 76-73 while also securing the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference Tournament berth.
The Cougars began the game with their status for the post-season still uncertain, but after the win over the Saints - coupled with a Bethany Lutheran loss - the Cougars have locked up the No. 2 seed.
The Cougars trailed by five at halftime 39-34, after St. Scholastica shot a blazing 59 percent (17-of-29) from the field in the first half.
Coming out of the break, the Cougars answered back with nine straight points and went up 43-39 after a Daniel Fragodt put-back at the 17:22 mark. The rebound was one of a game-high nine for Fragodt, while adding seven points.
After taking over the lead, the Cougars would never trail again. Twice the Saints managed to tie the score, but each time the Cougars answered. First, after being knotted up 46-46 at the 14:57 mark Eric Dalbey connected for three of his 14 points, and again at 7:35 with things all squared up at 59-59, Steve Birman sank a jumper to put the Cougars up for good.
Birman finished with a team-high 21 points, hitting double figures for the first time since the first day of the month, while having his highest mark since Jan. 21. He carried the Cougars in the first half, pouring in 19 points before the break. In the second, it was Dalbey who led the charge, as the senior scored all 14 of his points in the second half.
The Saints' Danny Schmitz led all scorers with 28 points in a 10-of-15 night, which included six three-pointers.
Derek Schmidt, with 12, was the only other Cougar in double figures.
The Saints finished shooting 53 percent (31-of-59) from the floor, the best mark of the season for a Morris opponent in a game where the Cougars won. The difference tonight came at the free-throw line, where Morris had its best game of the season, finishing 19-of-21. Conversely, the Saints went to the charity stripe just five times.
UM-Morris 88
Northland 74
The Cougars closed out the regular season with an 88-74 road win over host Northland Saturday.
It was the first time all season that the Cougars have charted consecutive road victories on back-to-back nights. The only other time the Cougars finished with consecutive road wins was the opening weekend of the season, with the wins coming two nights apart.
The LumberJacks were the only team to enter the weekend out of UMAC Tournament contention. They shot a red hot 56 percent (29-of-53) from the field, but hit just one three-pointer all night, while the Cougars thrived behind the arc with 10 in the game.
Dalbey had his best game of the season, leading all players with 25 points on a 5-of-10 shooting night, all from long range. He also went 10-of-11 at the free throw line, as the Cougars shot a UMAC-high 37.
Dalbey was one of four Cougars in double-figures as he was joined by Schmidt with 17, Fragodt with 13, and Tom Barrett with 10.
Dalbey opened the game with back-to-back threes and quickly the Cougars were up 6-0. A Fragodt lay-up at 15:12 gave the Cougars a 10-point lead for the first time, and at 9:04 they moved ahead by 20-points after a Barrett bucket.
The LumberJacks were able to come all the way back within eight in the second half, after an Adrian Flores basket at the 4:52 mark made the score 35-27.
After taking a 10-point lead into halftime the Cougars worked their lead all the way to 16 before Northland whittled it all the way down to three at 68-65 with just 6:36 left to play. Morris answered with five straight - all from Dalbey - and were back up eight at 73-65, just 40 seconds later.
Northland would not get within five the rest of the way.

A very quick excerpt from the latest of Jim's China dispatches. Highly recommended read.
Superficially, Japan's boom of the 1980s seems like China's today. Yes, both happened in Asia, both led to mammoth trade imbalances, both arose from combined governmental and private-industrial efforts, and both unnerved the United States. But the differences are more numerous than the similarities, and more important. Japan was and is rich; for China, that is decades away. Japan's debut as an international host with its Olympic Games was already 20 years in the past (Tokyo, 1964); China's is still ahead. To me the most striking difference was cultural and moralistic: specifically, Japan's cocksureness. Japan and many neighboring nations saw its rise as a challenge to the American idea, and they didn't care who knew it. No one thinks that today's China lacks cultural confidence. By now I should have programmed auto-text keys to use when transcribing interviews, so that I can plug in the rote passage about "our 5,000 years of history" or "the world's longest continuous civilization" with one stroke. But I have encountered virtually no lecturing from Chinese friends, officials, students, passersby, or interviewees.
People inside China have a vivid sense of the whack-a-mole challenge they face at every level. For rural people, staying alive. For the urban-employed class, finding enough money to pay for an apartment (with prices soaring), get kids into school (also expensive, with fees required even at public schools), fend off health emergencies (ditto), plus somehow save enough for retirement (in the midst of a huge demographic shift, driven by the one-child policy, toward a society with many more dependents and many fewer active workers). For company officials, managing China's current "brand image" disaster, plus the soaring costs of water, energy, and raw materials, plus the competition from thousands of other companies just like them. For regional officials, fending off complaints about pollution and corruption while still bringing in jobs. For the national government, managing all this and political and international crises too. Based on their record over the last 20 years, Chinese at all levels will probably find a way to stay just ahead of these disasters. But the situation doesn't leave many people I've met sounding boastful.

While the entire world believed that Nokia would unveil their new Lumia 928 on May 14 (as the press invites hinted), the new Windows Phone flagship is official, and so here's the first promo video. Let's take a closer look!
Nokia's new Lumia 928 with the 8.7 MP (touted amazing) PureView camera is now official and exclusive to Verizon US (for now). While everybody was expecting a May 14 unveil, we are pushed to think that Nokia has more in store for us in the near future (in this case, it's 3 days away). While that's going on, Nokia decided to continue releasing videos featuring its new Lumia 928 with their first official promo video, so here you go!
The video shows off the new features of the phone. We simply prepared a list of them to make it easier for you to go through:
- Shooting videos and pictures free of blurring
- Impressive low light photography and video
- "Advanced Speakers" that promise a much livelier music experience hands free
- Fool-proof instructions to capture those perfect panoramic shots
- Easily edit and share your pictures with your friends and family
- Smart Shoot – correct errors in a picture (such as sneezes, closed eyes etc.) and use the best face of each subject for a picture
- Remove unwanted objects from an image after it has been shot
- Nokia HERE City Lens with Augmented Reality
- Nokia HERE City Drive, promising the fastest route from point A to B
Smart Shoot looks to be a particularly useful feature for taking burst shots so as to allow the user to simply choose the best looking face of the subjects in the photo. Removing unwanted objects from an image after it was shot reminds us of the new camera features in Samsung's Galaxy S4. The Lumia 928 is shaping up to be an amazing mid range device (mid range as it costs $99 on contract). Of course you get NFC and Wireless Charging capability along with it. However, we still feel that there's something lacking in the device.
What's new with the Lumia 928:
- AMOLED Display
- Improved Camera
- Improved Speakers
- Lighter than the Lumia 920
Despite this, the new Lumia 928 packs a thicker body (yes, at 11.2 mm), has the same old Snapdragon S4 chipset as the Lumia 920, is taller and still doesn't pack a microSD card slot (not that we're complaining with 32 GB of internal storage). The new Lumia 928 feels more like a necessary evolution than the revolution that the Lumia 920 was when it was originally introduced last year. Oh well, all hope isn't lost yet as Nokia still has another chance to wow us all on the 14th. Mark your calendars!

Justin Bieber is off the hook for allegedly trying to steal a woman's cell phone. He was being investigated because of accusations that he tried to steal a woman's cell phone while visiting a mini golf and batting cage park. Seems law enforcement officials interviewed a bunch of people and no one saw any altercation between Justin and the woman.
Meantime, he'll plea bargain him Miami DUI case. He's supposed to plead guilty to reckless driving and the other charges will be dropped in return for that plea.

Battling mold
By Marlene Naanes
State Sen. Liz Krueger announced yesterday legislation that will help residents and landlords battle toxic mold in homes, the senator's office said.
The legislation, if passed, would require the state Department of Environmental Conservation commissioner to certify anyone that remediates mold commercially.
"I constantly hear from constituents who have paid to have mold removed, and then find out the mold has returned," Krueger said at a rally in front of City Hall yesterday.

Hynix backers opt for December auction, say reports
Post a comment
LONDON Shareholders who bailed out memory chip maker Hynix Semiconductor Inc. in the early part of this decade are planning to put their holding up for auction in December, according to online reports. The reports quote a statement from Korea Exchange Bank as their source.
The move comes after South Korea's Hyosung Corp. dropped its bid to buy the block of shares, which represent 28.1 percent of the company and are valued at about $2.9 billion.
The shareholders, who agreed to exchange debt for stock several years ago and have been unwinding their positions ever since, have agreed to restart the sale of their remaining holding as an auction. According to the reports the shareholders will advertise the opportunity to South Korea companies around Dec. 20 and expect to receive letters of intent by the end of January, the reports said.

Final: Bruins 3, Jets 2
Loui Eriksson scored the game-winner in overtime to give the Bruins a 3-2 victory. Ryan Spooner assisted the goal.
Goalie Niklas Svedberg stopped 26 of 28 shots in his bid to be the backup to Tuukka Rask this season.
Third period, 2-2 We're headed to overtime here in Winnipeg after a period that saw both sides score. Matt Bartkowski was beaten to a loose puck by Devin Setoguchi and the winger got it past Svedberg for the score. Ryan Spooner got the goal for the Bruins, deserved after how well he's played this preseason. It was his first of the preseason, as he scored on a shot from the point.
Svedberg has continued to be quite impressive in this game, as he tries to beat out Chad Johnson for the backup spot.
Second period, 1-1 Some excellent work by Niklas Svedberg to hold the Jets to one goal at the end of the second period. With the Bruins on the PK, Svedberg was forced into save after save, each of them difficult, to keep the score tied. The shots are now at 22-17 with the Jets in front.
The Bruins took a strange too many men on the ice penalty. Patrice Bergeron was about to step through the door to the bench — with his replacement on the ice — when the puck came right to him. He gave it a whack, putting the Bruins on the PK.
First period, 1-1 The Bruins got on the board first, as Brad Marchand made a sweet spin move to get around the defense and sent the puck to Patrice Bergeron. The center scored his first goal of the preseason to put the Bruins up.
The Jets got their goal on a power play, by Devin Setoguchi off a rebound. The penalty was on Dougie Hamilton, his second of the period.
Hamilton came out smoking in this game, seemingly faster and more intense than we've seen him so far in the preseason. He had a nice chance with Bergeron midway through the period, though they weren't able to make good on it. But he went downhill from there, taking those two penalties, one of which ended in a Winnipeg score. The first half of the period was good for him. The second half, less so.
Boston goalie Niklas Svedberg has allowed one goal on nine shots as he makes his case to be Tuukka Rask's backup. Chad Johnson seems to be the favorite at this point, but this is Svedberg's chance to show what he's got.
