According to a reports from The Hockey News and Globe and Mail, a lawsuit which is seeking in excess of $40 million from Detroit's Todd Bertuzzi has been slated by Ontario's Superior Court of Justice to begin hearings on September 24, 2012 or October 22, 2012 (Depending on Bertuzzi's current NHL status.)
Todd Bertuzzi is also currently suing his former head coach, Marc Crawford, claiming that he was encouraged by Crawford to attack Moore in an ill-sighted attempt to avenge a previous hit on Markus Naslund. Crawford has since denied that he sent Bertuzzi on the ice with the intention of getting Moore back.
While both Crawford and the Canucks are covered (up to $10 million plus $1 million in legal fees) by team insurance, Bertuzzi would personally be liable for any damages awarded to Moore due to the fact that he did end up pleading guilty to assault following the incident.
I am not going to pretend I am a lawyer and attempt to decipher all of the legal mumbo-jumbo, for more info on the ins and outs of the lawsuit I strongly encourage you to check out the previously mentioned articles. Instead, I am going to look at it from the point of view of a regular guy.
I know for a fact that, even seven plus years later, there are still a number of people who adamantly believe that Bertuzzi should not even be allowed to play in the NHL anymore. Personally, I disagree with that. Obviously the entire incident involving Bertuzzi was ugly, but he pleaded guilty to his charges and accepted his punishment (One year of probation and 80 days of community service.)
My initial reaction when I read about the lawsuit was a bit of shock over the $40 million. From what I understand the number is an estimated $38 million in what Moore would have earned if he had continued his NHL career plus more based on the claim that brain damage he suffered from the incident left him unable to pursue his post-hockey finance career. While $40 million sounds like a lot and some people may have the thought of live and let live, I don't think you can really fault the guy for trying to get what he feels he deserves. Whether or not he actually does deserve it is a matter to be decided by the courts.
After sifting through all of the numbers and claims, I, as a Wings fan, am most concerned with how this affects Bertuzzi mentally heading into the season after more than seven years of dealing with this. You have to believe that Bertuzzi knew this was coming at some point but it still can't feel very good knowing you are at any risk of being on the hook for $40 million. The way I see it for Big Bert this season is that it can really have one of two probable outcomes on his play. The first possibility is that Bertuzzi is just relieved to finally have an end in sight and an official date set so he can stop worrying about when it may happen and in turn allow him to just focus all of his energy on playing. The second possibility is that, as I am sure it would be for many people, the idea of a $40 million lawsuit against you wreaks havoc on his state of mind and his level of play goes down.
If I had to guess, based on how Bertuzzi has handled himself on the ice since the incident, I wouldn't expect any significant drop in his level of play this season. This issue has to have been weighing on his mind since the first time he stepped back onto NHL ice following the event, just the fact that he has been able to continue to play at the level that he has is a testament to the mental toughness of Todd Bertuzzi and I would be willing to wager that this season will be no different.

One of the great aspects about SONAR X1 is that it's a very diverse D.A.W. There are so many different ways to create music and it's great for people who like to experiment with sounds and develop unique sonic pallets. One of the main reasons why many pro users choose SONAR is because there are a lot of veiled jewels and tools that help musicians to sculpt a unique and individualized sound.
Similar to the Beatscape Content articles that were posted, I decided to dive into another one of my favorite hidden treasures of SONAR of which some people may not be aware; the pristine and fat FX engine of Z3TA+ that can be used as a standard VST effects unit.
When I first started using SONAR I loved the fact that it came with so many great VST plugins. It wasn't until 6 months into using the program when someone pointed out to me that you could use the Z3TA+ synth as an actual VST effect anywhere you use regular plugins – on clips, in bins, on busses… etc. After dragging Z3TA+ onto a track I was instantly surprised at what I heard.
To exemplify the FX greatness of Z3TA+, I decided to create a project and mix it using only Z3TA+ effects. I also used it on the master bus and was able to get some surprising results on this project as you can see and hear from the video.
I think what separates this effects unit apart from others is the fact that it has over 700 presets to use as starting points, and it also has a very unique sound which really fattens things up. The delays and modulations are exceptional, and you can also get some uniquely interesting sounds out of the distortion, compression and 7 band stereo EQ which also has a simulator mode to it. Another very cool feature is the Bit Decimator which is part of the distortion module.
Z3TA+ is included with SONAR X1 Producer as well as the SONAR X1 Studio edition, and for a limited time if you buy or upgrade to SONAR X1 Essential, you get SONAR X1 Studio for free. So visit here to find out more about getting yourself a First Class Upgrade and start making some great music with SONAR and Z3TA+.

Following is a statement from HLI president Father Shenan J. Boquet on the nomination of Neil Gorsuch for justice of the Supreme Court:
With the nomination of Neil Gorsuch to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court, it appears that the Trump administration is fulfilling another promise — this one to appoint a justice who still holds that the US Constitution is to be interpreted as it was originally understood. Judge Gorsuch's reputation is stellar, and he appears willing to uphold the religious freedom guaranteed by the First Amendment and to see the lives of the most vulnerable as being worth defending in law. Would that these were less controversial positions.
While it appears that Judge Gorsuch's method of legal reasoning bodes well for those who defend life and family, we take nothing for granted given the failure of some appointed justices of the Court to give due deference to the original understanding of the Constitution. We continue to pray with all Christians that the next justice will protect the most essential rights of life and liberty, and will show the humility and respect due to the one institution that predates all governments and courts, natural marriage.

Aging Gracefully,Anti-Aging,Athletic Performance,Dave Sandoval,Purium Products,Sports 8 Feb , 2017
By David Sandoval
How fast are your hands? Could you grab a fly out of midair? Or catch your child before they fall off that chair they weren't supposed to be climbing on?
The secret to lightening quick reactions may actually lie in the brain, as opposed to physical refinement. When we see a ball coming towards us or an accident that's about to happen, our brain immediately sends a neurotransmitter (messages from your brain) to our neuro-receptors (that tell your body what to do). The faster the message is received, the faster our body can react. When those signals fail to be received promptly, the result is impeded reaction time and, as you know, pain.
Purium offers Revive-It-All* as an all-natural "turn back the clock" formula for people looking to fight off the signs of aging – based on a formula by renowned researcher Dr. Bruce Ames (the base formula also graced the cover of the November 2003 Reader's Digest under the heading, "The New Pill that Can End Aging"). It is the first product to dramatically increase the efficiency of neurotransmitters and neuroreceptors. The result is an increase in every sensory command's efficiency and execution. Rapid reaction time, superior hand eye coordination and split second decision-making are the difference between the best and everyone else.
In other words, you will think, react and perform at a faster rate than you ever imagined possible. While boxers, tennis players and top athletes can benefit from Revive-It-All, anyone looking for the secret to peak mental and physical achievement can reap rewards from it as well.
*Now on PLC special for the month of February!

Great, another tweet. And this one carrying even worse news than Oney Guillen leaving the White Sox, if you can believe it.
But at least we don't have to do too much deciphering to spot a good-bye. Chicago Bears defensive end Alex Brown made it official Wednesday by thanking the team that cut him loose and wishing the organization the best.
Brown wrote off his apparent exit from the Bears as "the nature of the business" and did not reveal any bitter feelings as he tweeted, "Bear down!"
If he could have sung one last verse of the team fight song, I'm quite certain he would have, for that's the kind of guy he is. But most teams these days don't put much of a premium on dependable players and stand-up people.
They want more. More production. More for their money. More evidence that as high-powered executives, they're doing their jobs when in most cases, less is more.
In Brown's situation, a little hand-wringing is fair game. For all the sacks he didn't ring up, you knew what you were going to get from him each day, each practice, each season. Dependability. Durability. No surprises. On a defense that is a far cry from the league elite, above-average known quantities like the eight-year veteran should be considered gold.
But the Bears, in that arrogant way they have, will roll the dice that Mark Anderson will somehow snap back into the carefree rookie who had 12 sacks in 2006, as opposed to the guy who has disappeared since then, handing the starting job back to Brown, who never deserved to have it taken away in the first place.

Well the Goldsmid by-election is all over but the voting - and the counting.
Though all the parties seem to have working hard over recent weeks - testament to the by-election's significance for the future of the council - and some havce argued politics in our city - it seems to have come down to a two-horse race between the incumbent Tories and the Greens.
Canvass returns, rumours about postal votes and the general mood in the campaign seems to suggest yet another electoral wipe-out for Labour. Oh well - we'll see what happens, but to be fair the Government's deep unpopularity, the mounting death toll in Afghanistan, the crippling debts owed by UK PLC and the expenses scandal have all driven people away from them - and none of these has much to do with Goldsmid.
Locally, Labour is more likely to suffer a poor showing as a result of its bizarre candidate choice - Lis Telcs, a teacher from the other side of the city whose recent electoral history consists of managing to come sixth in the latest vote in Moulescooomb and Bevendean - a previous;y 'safe' labour ward.
In a final appeal to voters the Green Party's Alex Phillips said today's result will determine the future of the council - and she's right. Currently, the Tories are running the council with just 25 councillors (out of 54 - well under half), so whoever wins today will effectively decide the future of the administration.
Weighty stuff indeed.
Hoping to bag that role for herself, Alex appealed to undecided voters to go Green, saying a Green vote is a vote to return honesty and integrity to public life.
She said: "As the Green candidate in this election, the result of which will help determine how the city is run, I'm appealing to undecided voters to support me on Thursday.
"If elected, I promise to be a hard working, caring and understanding city councillor.
"The race is now a straight fight between the Tories and the Greens, as Vince Meegan, the former Labour councillor for the area has recently pointed out.
"If you want to stop the Tories and help deliver a brighter, fairer future for the city, vote Green."
Whatever happens, I'll bring you the result here as soon as I can.

Impressive book store
Foyles.co.uk is an international bookseller. Established in London, 1903, Foyles' flagship store on Clarence Court Road held the world record for the largest bookshop in the world, and Foyles still boasts the largest range under one roof of any bookshop in the UK. Foyles' website has 16.8 million books available online, with worldwide delivery, in addition to a vast range of foreign language books and an extensive eBook offering.
Foyles wanted to sell more books without necessarily increasing its PPC spend. Not a problem – we would simply have to look for opportunities where we could improve the profitability of its AdWords campaigns. We always like a challenge.
High-value, low-cost strategy
Our strategy was to measure and optimise for return on investment using Google Analytics eCommerce tracking. Reduce spend on lesser-performing keywords and increase traffic for higher-performing keywords. By identifying new high-value, low-cost keywords, we were able to minimise spend and maximise sales.
Why pay more when you can pay less?
Comparing August 2012 with the previous year, we increased average click through rate by 153% and doubled the conversion rate from click to sale. We reduced the cost of Foyles' AdWords campaigns by 38%, while achieving a 28.83% increase in sales and a 273% increase in return on investment.
Let's create a story for you
We've used some novel approaches to getting PPC results for retailers.

Seems like I got lucky taking out the security guard (I mean the undercover hitman disguised as a security guard). I garrotted him in virtually the same place as CKHall22 and Chillyschrimp, but I wasn't spotted and they were.
BTW, does "crime noticed" ruin your score in the same way that being found suspicious or trespassing does? I'd assume so, but I'm not entirely sure.
Not necessarily: e.g. a leg shot would be crime noticed, but wouldn't ruin your score. Having a kill noticed ruins your score.
Hey guys, so first attempt was a FAST fail lol. Right after first guy got shot down. Ah well. Restarted a few times and did another run SA with everything on (instinct etc). I have an idea on how neo-rah-who I hope joins the forum, he's a nice guy-got the 2:57 he did. I'm working on it atm. Anyway, another fun time with this, thanks for posting!
Official submission, FAIL:
Fastest run for me so far, with instinct/options on:
Well, tried it. Did it. Failed a bunch along the way. The one security guard I had to kill really messed my score up. Not sure who, but someone saw me killing him (may have been the groundskeeper) but I changed disguise, ran away, and deleted the tapes. Got out safely...
I can't believe I'm still winning with a 20-minute-long run.
I'm finally proving my long-held claim that tortoise-like patience is as important as speed in this contest. lol
P.S. I just wanna say, too, that I've been incredibly impressed with the honesty of all of the players here since I started this thread. I expected one or two instances of cheating from less-honourable sorts, but, as far as I can tell, there's been nothing.
You've all earned a perfect SA rank for sportsmanship, IMO.
So ... special conditions imposed by the contract-creator ... e.g. "You must begin the level at a particular entrance," or, "You must not subdue any NPCs," etc.
This was a suggestion I received early on in the thread, and which I said I'd revisit once people were used to the rules of the competition. So this is me -- revisiting it.
What's your opinion on it? Would you like contract creators to have this god-like power, or not?
Please select the statement you agree with.
Votes are public.
I think we should allow people to set conditions, but limited ones (so maybe 1 or 2 conditions per EC)
I like that suggestion, Silverballer. So things don't get too crazy.
Conditions I think should be able to be added:
Certain people can become VIPs (but they must be people who can be easily identified)Contract must be done Suit OnlyYou must start in a certain locationTargets must be killed in a certain orderYou may not subdue or kill anyone (only on easier contracts)Certain items are not allowed to be taken into the mapYou must start with no loadoutYou must exit a certain wayYou must delete the security tapesYou may not delete the security tapesYou may not destroy security camerasNo distractions (again, only for easier contract)
Agreed 1-2 sounds good for conditions, and the conditions should be achievable, not make the contract impossible to complete SA. I have no problem with that, could add to the fun!
and @David47 your "slower" runs are great for this contest. I have been going far too fast for this. Next time, I'm definitely going to slow it up some
Speaking of no subduing, the Hitman Roulette thing sometimes has you to never change your disguise or kill/subdue NPCs when you are supposed to change disguise to kill a target.
I just got one. Start in the restaurant, kill Yuki Yamazaki in your SUIT, kill Erich Soders as a morgue doctor.
Some great suggestions there. Definitely food for thought.
If people support this idea, then I think the special conditions should be pretty-much anything that isn't overly confusing and which doesn't make the contract impossible.
And I'll say right now that I think two special conditions per contract should be the limit. I agree with you.
I did want to set special conditions on my contract but then I realised it was better without, so I voted no in this poll. Just thought i'd state why in case anyone was wondering.
Thanks for the input, JDMHatch_G. Nice to see you here again..
P.S. I'm personally not going to vote either way until the end because I don't want to sway opinion.
Thanks, I have been meaning to play some of these but just don't seem to be able to find the time atm
One reason I've been reluctant to include special conditions is because they could harm the "simulation" element of this contest -- which was the primary reason for its creation.
If 47 isn't allowed to do things -- just because -- then you start to feel as though you're playing a game, with silly rules, instead of carrying out a professional hit.
So if this rule is introduced, I'd encourage people to think of logical, roleplay reasons for as many special conditions as they can, e.g. The assignment is extremely sensitive and 47 isn't allowed to leave a trail of bodies, unconscious or otherwise.
I'll announce this in the Xbox thread. I can't wait to add VIPs.
Edit: I'll wait till tomorrow, see what happens in the poll.
Silverballer, if you want to include special-conditions in the Xbox One contest right now, go ahead.
But I'm going to wait until a few more votes and opinions have come in before deciding.
If anything, (I think) the contract creator should be able to set (1 "Must Do" condition) if they choose to. It shouldn't be an option for the creator every single time, only set it, if it makes sence with the mission (briefing story)
other than that, I also think the creator should be able to post (highly recommended 'suggestions.' Not that the player would HAVE to do what the creator said, just that the creator would strongly recommend it. But if the creator decides to post a special condition (for story purposes, which again, wouldn't be all the time) then I think the player would have to do it.
An example would be something like. "The client wants to send a message, by leaving a calling card, so make sure you place 1 "Merces Letifer" coin on the restaurant table." Something like that would fit for a "story based contract" and doing something as little as that, wouldn't really interfere, or really constrict the player. But that's just my take on it man, to be honest I'm up for that, or just leaving it how it is now. Both are okay with me, but this is your thread. You decide what you see fit
I'm having the final say on big decisions because I'm the creator and because, unless one person sets firm boundaries, we get absolute chaos.
But this is everyone's thread!
I'll watch the vote carefully, and, later, if this new rule "passes", and if I win the current contract, I'll add a simple special condition to my contract so everyone gets an idea of how it might work.

I know it's still early doors in terms of my new job but there is yet to be any tail-off in pleasure gained from getting the train to work! Today I am heading out from Bristol and up to the edges of the Lake District in Lancashire/Cumbria. Should be a picturesque one. Short of carking it in a horrific derialment incident, I always look forward the possibilities of the train. I think I will be on a Pendolino today.
As ever, I will check out the driver just in case it's the fella pictured (my brother says I will see him one day).

Indian Ladder tries to be eco-conscious and socially responsible in choosing the companies we buy from.
We are committed to supporting the local artisans and craftspeople whose greeting cards, soaps, candles and ornaments we sell. Our book selection is carefully chosen to provide entertainment, information, and advice on topics relevant to life on the farm, food growing and preparation (cooking!), and the interest of our customers. In addition, we have a great selection of unique and worthwhile children's books. We carry a number of books on New York State history and travel, including several by local authors such as our very own Timothy Albright and Laura Ten Eyck.
In addition to our gifts, books and toys, we are also a farm market. Local honey and maple syrup can always be found on our shelves along with a variety of jams and jellies, some made locally. We have plenty of sauces, salsas, and relishes that will really jazz up any meal; some are locally produced. New York State cheeses, yogurts and local Meadowbrook Dairy milk stock our dairy cooler and of course we have seasonal vegetables from local farms and our own as they come in.
If you have any suggestions for new products, artists, or companies that would fit in at Indian Ladder Farms, please let us know.

CASAA is "rebroadcasting" this call to action from Vapers.Org.UK.
You can see the original post here.
Petition the German Parliament: "Don't implement ART 20 TPD!"
We should preface this by making it clear that this is not your run-of-the-mill petition (Petition 61453). In the context of the German Parliament, this is part of the legislative process. As such, there are detailed instructions for signing this petition on the original post. Rather than rewrite the entire post -- which is thorough and you should plan to take about 15 minutes to sit down with it -- we will simply take this opportunity to explain why your participation is vital.
- German vapers (or "steamers," as the literal translation goes) have written this petition to demand that their government reject implementing Article 20 of the EU's Tobacco Products Directive (TPD). For a detailed look at Article 20 of the TPD and why it should be vehemently opposed, please see analysis provided by Clive Bates here.
- This petition needs 50,000 signatures in order to be presented to the German Parliament. Fortunately, those signatures can come from anywhere. In fact, it may be very beneficial if a large portion of them come from outside of Germany.
- The deadline for reaching the threshold is Wednesday, January 20th, 2016. (It is absolutely vital that you provide accurate information when registering to participate in the German petition system. False or inaccurate personal info may jeopardize consideration of this petition.
Please follow the detailed walkthrough provided by German Vapers and register with the German Parliament website so you can Sign This Petition. (We recommend viewing the site as translated by Google for easier navigation -- unless, of course, you read/speak German)

The Union Cabinet on Thursday approved a 50 percent cut in the reserve price of spectrum used by CDMA mobile operators, in a move to allow players like Russia's Sistema to continue operations in India.
After considering the recommendations of the Empowered Group of Ministers (EGoM), the Cabinet approved the move since no bids were received during auctions held in November 2012, a government statement said.
After the 50 percent reduction, pan-India 5MHz of 800 MHz CDMA spectrum will now cost Rs. 9,100 crore, Telecoms Minister Kapil Sibal announced, adding that the auction, for both GSM and CDMA airwaves, will be completed by March 31.
Russia´s Sistema Shyam TeleServices Ltd (SSTL), which had not participated in the November auctions last year and was set to exit the Indian market after losing all but one of 22 zonal permits, is now expected to bid in the March auction.
"The decision by the Cabinet to reduce the CDMA reserve price by 50 percent clearly reflects the growing realization that demand for 800Mhz is very limited. The decision taken is a step in the right direction. However, as per ground realities one would have expected much greater reduction," a company spokesperson said.
India had held auctions for its mobile airwaves last year after a Supreme Court order in the 2G spectrum scandal ruled that a 2008 graft-charged distribution process was invalid.

Jay Fitzgerald says that Boston homeowners are
pulling their condos off the market because they can't find buyers.
I agree. However,
it's a perfect example of simple economics and the free market. I think the majority of those
pulling their places off were not being forced to sell, and have decided to hold off on
Again, the slowing of the market sucks if you're someone who has to sell, due to
job loss/relocation or lifestyle change.
Many Boston condo owners appear to have pulled
units off the sale block rather than sell for lower prices in a soft market, according to housing
data and experts.
The inventory of condos sitting unsold remains high compared with previous
years, according to data from the Listing Information Network of Boston.
Earlier this
week, there were 1,977 condo units listed for sale in the Greater Boston area, down from a November
peak of 3,186, LINK said.

Threats to Hecarim with this build
|Jax's early game is bad. Use this to get a strong lead. Once you've secured this, your laneing phase should be a guranteed win.
Hecarim guide for patch 6.16. In this guide I will go over the laning phase, mid game, and late game of Hecarim if you were to play him. If you have any suggestions for the guide please leave a comment. I hope you enjoy!
(WIP: I'm trying to see how I can get more CDR into the build of this guide. There is nothing wrong with this build, I just want to see if I can maximize CDR)
Pros / Cons
Very Mobile
Has Great Early, and Mid game
Has pretty good late game
Very Few Counters
Counters Many Top Laners
Falls Off a Bit Late Game (I'll explain later on)
Not a Ton of CC
The Champs that do Counter Him Counter Hard
Summoner Spells
For summoner spells on hecarim I take Teleport and Ignite. Teleport should be taken on all top laners so that they have a global presence and are not only limited to the top lane. Most people would take Flash as their second summoner spell, but think about it. Hecarim already has enough mobility to escape almost anything (i.e. Devastating Charge and Onslaught of Shadows). There is really no need for the extra mobility spell. The reason I choose Ignite for my second summoner spell is because it gives you some extra kill power if you can't do quite enough damage to secure kills.
Skill Sequence
You should always take Rampage first in any and every lane match-up with Hecarim. It helps farm and also prevents you lane opponent from farming. Next you take Spirit of Dread for sustain. It also makes almost all your trades even due to its decent life steal. Your Devastating Charge is taken last because leveling it isn't as worth it as his other abilities. It does help with taking towers and provides great mobility. Onslaught of Shadows is an AOE dash that does damage and fears. The fear is amazing in team-fights and does enough damage to be impact-full. Its also useful for chasing as well as escaping.
Starting Items
For starting items you will be starting out with either Doran's Shield or Cloth Armor more times than not. This is due to the advantages these items bring. Cloth Armor gives a significant amount of resistance early and allows you to buy 5 health pots which really helps with sustain. Doran's Shield gives a good amount of health along with health regen which helps you sustain a little better than you would have otherwise.
Early Game
With Hecarim your first item should probably be tier 1 boots at least. The reason you want this so early is because of Hecarims passive gives you AD depending on your Movement Speed. If you wanted a boot enchant early either go with Furor or Alarcity Trinity Force. This item gives Hec an INSANE power spike that lasts through the early and mid game. The reason I take this damage item over others is because of ALL it gives you compared to them. Trinity not only gives the attack damage, mana,and attack speed but also the sheen is going to be on constant proc because of the short cool down on your Q. This is the essential item to any successful Hecarim game. Dead Man's Plate or Spirit Visage(depending on whats hurting YOU the most). I like Dead Man's Plate a ton on Hec. It gives you move speed at max stacks to help your passive and is an overall BEAST of a tank item.This should be your go to armor/tank item in the mid game.
Mid Game
At this point your at your power spike. You don't need anymore damage for now so you want to build tank so you have more time to deal your damage. Some armor items such as Randuin's Omen or Frozen Heart if your taking a lot of AD damage and Spirit Visage or Banshee's Veil if your taking a lot of AP damage.
Late Game
Now you are tanky. But, the damage of your Trinity Force is beginning to not be enough. There is one STRONG item you can buy to make sure you don't fall off late game. Titanic Hydra here, but they nerfed the AD it gave you making it inferior to Sterak's Gage. Sterak's gives you +25% base AD which makes up for your drop in damage late game. In order to ensure you get the damage off, it gives 400 health and a 30% max health shield when you take a certain amount of damage. When you obtain the shield you also gain MORE AD and increased size. This item is SOOOOOOO great on Hecarim. A must buy in most games.
Of'course you'll also want an Elixir of Iron if your team fighting or an Elixir of Ruin if your split pushing. Elixir of Ruin gives nearby minions extra damage to buildings which helps with pushing. Elixir of Iron makes your model larger as well as leave a trail of iron which increases the movement speed of those on it.

FWIW: This would mean to remove all of Mozilla and friends, since they don't receive any security support upstream, and neither the maintainer or the security team are in a position to backport all fixes and correcte all stuff in the older versions. (upstream does only support the most recent version, which will be different about one month after the sarge release).

27 Nov A Prescription for Poverty: Health Network Response to Broten Tax Review
Halifax, NS – Health advocates are 'astounded' by the recommendations of the just completed Nova Scotia tax review. The Nova Scotia Citizens' Health Care Network, a coalition of patients and health workers, called the recommendations backward and unsafe.
From the standpoint of health and the well-being of the most vulnerable sectors of the population, this is clearly bad policy "." said Dr. Tim Bood, board member of the Health Network. "One of the biggest, if not the biggest indicator of health is income. So why would you cut taxes to the rich and implement a tax that hurts women and the poor disproportionately?"
The review, headed by Laurel Broten, recommended eliminating the top tax bracket for people earning more than $150, 000 per year; lowering the corporate tax from 16% to 13.5%, eliminating point of sale rebates on books, children's clothing, diapers, and feminine products.
"Consumption taxes force those struggling to make ends meet to spend more of their income on needed items" added Bood.
Breton also recommended freezing all program and department spending, a move the group says will undermine the provincial heath system's ability to meet the population's needs.
"We have an aging population with high rates of chronic disease and illness. Wait lists for home and long term care have ballooned, and we have a massive shortage of health care workers. Plus, over the next decade, the federal government is cutting $902 million in health funding for Nova Scotia." said James Hutt, Provincial Co-ordinator of the Health Network.
"We need a strong public health system now more than ever. I don't understand how someone can be so out of touch with reality to advocate for a freeze in spending and tax cuts"
The only positive outcome of the review, according the Health Network, was support for a carbon tax.
"Personal health is inextricably linked to the health of our environment" said Hutt. "Though any good a carbon tax could do will be greatly outstripped by the other recommendations. As a whole they amount to a provincial prescription for poverty."

White Pashmina - Pier One, Gift
Navy Pinstripe Shirtdress- White Stag, Goodwill ($2!)
Black T-strap Flats - Wanted, Ross
This is what I wore to run some errands around town today. I pretty much love this shirtdress I bought a few weeks ago at Goodwill. It's the perfect length and even has pockets, so it's pretty much everything I could hope for. Even though there was some drizzle yesterday, today was a perfectly beautiful 65 degrees. Not only was I wearing open-toed shoes, I didn't even need a sweater or jacket!
Since the above photo doesn't really do it justice, here's a close-up of my crazily-painted toes:
It's matte green #7 from Urban Outfitters with black and silver glitter tiger stripes. A little kookier than I normally do, but I've rarely been wearing sandals so it was my own little secret until today.
Since I don't go back to work until Thursday, today was my last free Monday. I had to make a return at Anthropologie and had a lunch date with friends, but before I did all that I decided to swing by my local Goodwill. There are three Goodwills in the area, but one was recently moved to a brand new (and bigger) location. Since it is so much nicer than the two older ones, that's the one I went to this morning.
Obviously I don't really need anything so I was just stopping in to see if anything caught my eye. Well, it's a good thing I went in today because I managed to find a beautiful pair of Ralph Lauren riding boots.
They are very similar to the Frye boots that Jessica of What I Wore has and that Amazon sells here. Of course, the Frye version costs nearly $400, while I got these beauties for just $10! It was totally worth it since they are in excellent condition with only some wear on the soles. Now all I need is some cooler weather.

Turkey may no longer be a bystander in the fight against the Islamic State (ISIS). On Tuesday, the Turkish government sought a mandate from Parliament to expand cross-border military operations into Iraq and Syria. This week Parliament will vote on whether or not to authorize it, as Turkish soldiers and tanks position themselves along the border with Syria.
It's not clear whether Turkey would immediately send in ground troops or conduct airstrikes over Syria. However, even though Parliament is likely to approve the mandate, the government will most likely not authorize ground troops without an internationally backed no-fly zone in northern Syria. The White House is said to be considering a no-fly zone.
Until now, Turkey has had a less active military role against ISIS. Given it shares a 560-mile border with Syria, Turkey has to put more focus on ISIS controlling border points. Since ISIS besieged Kobani last week, more than 160,000 Kurdish refugees have poured into the country, according the semiofficial Anadolu News Agency. Kobani is a Syrian border town, and Turkey can't ignore the fact ISIS fighters are at its front door steps. Turkish leaders have already shown support in the United States-led operations against the militant group, but the push for this mandate is the first proactive military move. Should Parliament authorize Turkish troops on the ground? If it comes to the no-fly zone, should the U.S. back a no-fly zone in northern Syria? What else can the U.S. and other NATO members do to eliminate Turkey's hesitation with combat force?
Comment below or start the conversation here and connect within the military community.

Borriello holds Milan fear
Marco Borriello would be 'surprised' by any new striker arrivals at Milan, according to his agent.
By Nadia Carminati
Last Updated: 12/07/08 4:31pm
Marco Borriello would be 'surprised' by any new striker arrivals at Milan, according to the player's agent.
The Italy international is back at the San Siro after impressing with his goalscoring exploits at Genoa last season.
Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani recently admitted that Borriello would have a role to play in Carlo Ancelotti's plans in the coming season.
However, the Rossoneri have been trying to sign Emmanuel Adebayor from Arsenal, and Borriello's agent Tiberio Cavalleri admits the 26-year-old is concerned about his position.
Fundamental player
"I am reminded of Galliani's words, who said that Borriello was a fundamental player," Cavalleri told Gazzetta dello Sport.
"It seems clear to me that the arrival of another striker would be surprising because it would mean strategies are changed.
"The aim was to fight for a place with (Filippo) Inzaghi. Borriello always thought it would be useful to come back to Milan to be the third or fourth forward.
"It will be necessary to have good sense, but a solution will be found."

During a time of transition, our Young Adults ministry provides a place to belong. Join us for our weekly group get-together, or take part in a variety of events throughout the year. You'll find that we're an easy group to be a part of with lively discussions, a fair amount of sarcasm, and always lots and lots of food...
We gather each Monday evening for a combination of social and study. We usually kick things off with a game or activity, and a lot of catching up over snacks. We select a variety of topical studies throughout the year to dig into scripture and explore what the Bible tells us about navigating life and drawing closer to God. All voices are welcome in our discussions. If we're not ready for the evening to end, it's not unusual to find us heading out to sushi or pizza afterward to continue the conversation.
Monday Nights
We like to get together. If it has a Hallmark card dedicated to it, we're probably getting together to hang out. Join us for Halloween, Friendsgiving, Christmas Parties, New Year's Eve... and if there isn't something coming up on the calendar we're likely to have a game night or head to the movies together. Keep an eye open for upcoming events, or contact firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
It's a chance to get away for a weekend to relax, connect, and dig a little deeper into a specific topic. There's time for games and adventure too! Typically in the fall or winter.
We take the summer off from our weekly group meetings and instead plan fun adventures to get together and celebrate the summer heat. Look for BBQ's, hikes, lake days and more. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.

I don't usually make New Year's resolutions and wouldn't say this is one of those, but I'm going to beat the fitness rush and say this now: I'm going to try to do some sort of actual exercise. Although keeping up with four kids, one of which goes straight for anything he shouldn't have and alternates between crawling and walking, can be quite a workout, I feel I need something a little more. Fortunately, I came across this article that does away with the excuse that it's too cold. Now we'll see if I can follow through...

The Iliad Paperback
by Homer
One of the greatest epics in Western literature, THE ILIAD recounts the story of the Trojan wars.
This timeless poem still vividly conveys the horror and heroism of men and gods battling amidst devastation and destruction, as it moves to its tragic conclusion.
In his introduction, Bernard Knox observes that although the violence of the Iliad is grim and relentless, it co-exists with both images of civilized life and a poignant yearning for peace.

Review by mattviews
The movie Troy has revitalized my thirst for The Iliad and the reading of which has long been overdue. I decide to re-read this first work of Western literature in a different literary form: the prose translation by E. V. Rieu, who had first published in 1950 and has since achieved its classic status. Never before had this greatest of ancient Greek poet seemed so vivid, so accessible, approachable, and immediate to the English-speaking readers. This edition in review is a Penguin Classics 1988 revision of Rieu's translation that has timely incorporated the changes in linguistic and cultural idioms. E. V. Rieu's prose translation is as vivid and readable as Professor Richmond Lattimore's verse translation, which I had read in my undergraduate English class. The Iliad is set in the last year of the Greek siege of Ilium, a town in the region of Troy, which is now the northwestern Turkey and it all begins with a quarrel over a woman. On a visit to Sparta, Prince of Troy seduced and ran away with Helen, the wife of the Spartan ruler Menelaus. King Agamemnon, the imperial overlord of Greece, with his brother Menelaus, induced the princes who owe him allegiance to join forces with him against King Priam of Troy. The Greeks for 9 years had encamped beside their ships on the shore near Troy but without bringing the matter to a conclusion, though they had repeatedly looted and captured a number of Trojan towns, under the leadership of Achilles, Prince of Myrmidons, who had cultivated a gripe against Agamemnon.Success of raiding Troy led to a feud between Agamemnon and Achilles. Agamemnon had been allotted a girl named Chryseis as his prize, and he refused to give her up to her father, a local priest of Apollo, when he came to the camp with a ransom for her release. The priest prayed to Apollo and a plague ensued, forcing Agamemnon to give Chryseis up. But the unruly Agamemnon couped himself by confiscating one of Achilles' own prize, a girl named Briseis. It was such violet, public, unjust, and deeply humiliating attack on Achilles' assessment of his significance to the Greek army, along with Agamemnon's seize of Briseis that drove Achilles to withdraw himself and the Myrmidon force from the battlefield.Homer has written the epic with a delay of action, deferring Achilles to later part of the book in order to create a perception that he has covered the entire Trojan War. The Iliad, in this regard, in fact covers a few days of the last year of Trojan War, filling the pages with tight packing of action, the tugging to and fro between the two sides. It only centers on the aristocratic heroes (i.e. Hector, Paris, Aeneas, Achilles, Menelaus, Agamemnon, Diomedes, Ajax, and Odysseus), of whom they are named, but not the general mass of troops.As the Trojans got the upper hand and stormed the Greeks' defenses, Hector, the Trojan Commander-in-chief succeeded in setting fire to one of the Achaean ships. At this point Agamemnon had realized he had wronged Achilles, who had remained obdurate to all entreaties and repeated to the embassy the original accusation that he did all the fighting and Agamemnon got all the rewards. Achilles' bitter and grumpy speech against Agamemnon sheds light to what possibly Homer tries to convey as he has remained restrained in his narrative, leaving much room for private interpretation that one might experience difficulty to supply a definitive answer to question about the one main theme. Achilles had altered his view in life: no compensation could ever pay him back, because all the compensation in the world could not equate the worth of one's life, moreover the Trojans never did him any wrong until death had befallen Patroclus. All he had suffered by constantly risking his life in battle had left him no better off than anyone else. The Iliad tragedizes a hero who had been viscerally wronged: a man who was the son of a great man and a goddess, and yet for whom death and inexorable destiny were waiting. Patroclus' disastrous death brought Achilles to life and gave him a cause to fight. To him life was worth revenge on the person who killed his beloved companion. Achilles' greatness lies in his refusal to disclaim the responsibility for his actions, even though his own death would be the inevitable consequence. The greatness of The Iliad lies in the fact that Homer presents a broad mental picture of what he thought the Trojan battlefield looked like. The poetry may be linked with a tradition of oral poetry, which manifested fully in the repetition of patterns and descriptions that prevailed the epic that existed in the Mycenaean age. The modern reader can enjoy the book, as it was by the contemporary, for its own sake, as a vivid description of the Trojan War. Homer took what the tradition offered him and shaped it into The Iliad we now read, in perfect accordance with his own cultural assumptions.

Don't read this book - listen to it. Epic poetry is meant to be recited...
Review by sarathena1
Another book that I re-read annually. The characters in this story are among my favorites of all time. Their tragedies unfold like a very, very good Soap Opera. Reading it outloud adds a lyrical touch.
Review by lyzadanger
What is this story? Timeless themes tangled in archaic notions that try the patience, but then wild and rhythmic passages that would hold up against any great poet of the modern age. It's a conundrum. At times so difficult I feared I wouldn't be able to pound through it, at other times stealing nights away until 4 a.m., full maddening fevered reading that left me nervy and with the chants of Greek names going through my dreams. My relationship to The Iliad is far different to my late-summer, torpid tale-spinning romance with The Odyssey. It's full of things that sit funny with me: Achilles, the anti-heroic hero, spiteful, vengeful, unmoved; Zeus, tyrant yet yielding; Athena, a mysteriously fierce female in a time of spurned and maligned women. The span of events is peculiar. We see neither the actions and consequences that launched the Achaean onslaught of Troy, nor do we get to hear the legends of Troy's end (i.e. Trojan Horse) or Achilles downfall (Paris' winged arrow to the ankle). It's assumed we already know that.In fact, you go in already knowing everything. The weight of fate, and the way the characters--knowing full well how things are going to come out--respond is the source of the pathos. Achilles: winding tighter in rage as his days are numbered; the gods batting at Achaeans like bored housecats though they know ultimate victory goes against Troy. Yes, the petty spats of the gods echoing out in massacre of mortals and changing tides of gruesome war. Gore and detailed guts. Rhythm. Ritual. Timelessness.As an aside: the Fagles translation is wonderful. Recommended.
Review by Demiguise
The classic story of the Battle of Troy between the Greeks and the Trojans. The long war brought about by the abduction of Helen, who had a "face which launched a thousand ships".

At my blog today, I have some stories of Boy Scouts who served as civilian defense volunteers during the Second World War. I started out planning a short piece, but I got sidetracked by some of the stories of British Scouts who served their country during the war.
DerrickBelfall.JPG 21.92KB 0 downloads
In particular, I have the story of Derrick Belfall, a 14 year old scout from Bristol, England, who served as a civil defense messenger. During an air raid on December 2, 1940, he was sent with a message, which he delivered. On his return to his post, he passed a house that had caught fire, and he stopped to fight the fire. When the homeowner took over, he continued on his way, but heard cries for help. He entered another house where he rescued an injured baby.
With the air raid still underway, he continued back to his post, but was injured in an explosion. He was taken to the hospital, where he died of his injuries. His final words at the hospital were, "Messenger Belfall reporting. I have delivered my message."
I have more details and photos at:
