An Allied bomb from World War II killed three German sappers when it exploded as they prepared to defuse it, police said Wednesday, underlining the lethal danger still posed by such ordnance 65 years on.
The deadly blast occurred in the central city of Goettingen late Tuesday, an hour before the three specialists were due to neutralise the 500-kilogramme (1,100-pound) device, which authorities said was likely British.
Builders had discovered it while working on the construction of a sports stadium in a densely populated area.
Another six members of the bomb disposal team were injured, police chief Robert Kruse told a news conference, two of them seriously, but none had life-threatening wounds.
Bombs left over from the war are routinely discovered in Germany, with four found over the past two months in Berlin alone.
"We are deeply shocked by the horrible events last night," Lower Saxony state interior minister Uwe Schuenemann told the same news conference.
"We are mourning in deep sympathy with the families of the three men."
Schuenemann said the men killed, aged 38, 52 and 55, were seasoned ordnance disposal experts: the two oldest had more than 20 years of experience and had defused up to 700 bombs.
Another team had successfully neutralised a bomb at the same site last week.
When the latest bomb was discovered Tuesday, some 7,200 people living in the area were evacuated and the defusing operation was to have begun at about 2045 GMT.
But the bomb inexplicably went off an hour before while the disposal team was at the scene but had not started work.
Kruse said a radius around the explosion site would remain closed off for at least the next two days, leaving neighbouring facilities including a creche shuttered.
Experts were to comb the area Wednesday to ensure there are no further bombs underground before a 24-member special police unit launches an investigation into the cause of the freak explosion.
"This will mean ongoing inconveniences for the public in the interest of their protection but safety must be our highest priority," Kruse said.
The head of the Association of German Explosive Ordnance Specialists, Volker Scherff, said the problem of World War II era bombs would haunt Germany for another 30 to 40 years.
He said there were no reliable estimates for how many bombs still littered the country but noted that because the Allies had targeted major cities and industrial areas in their bombing campaigns, the danger of such accidents was omnipresent.
He said between 400 and 500 people were employed across the country in World War II bomb removal.
"After the war, there was a building boom, and buildings often went up in areas where there were bombs," he told AFP. "Those bombs are still there and when construction work is done today, the ground must always be actively searched for ordnance."
Last month 9,000 residents in the upscale Berlin district of Zehlendorf had to evacuate their homes when a 500-kilogramme bomb was unearthed.
In April, the main airport in Berlin was closed when builders discovered a British bomb.
And in April 2009, Chancellor Angela Merkel had to evacuate her apartment in the Berlin city-centre due to the discovery of an unexploded Soviet bomb.
Berlin authorities believe there are still another 3,000 bombs lurking under the soil in the capital alone.

When the tickets were printed several months ago for Saturday night's double-bill in Orchestra Hall, the name of the opening attraction wasn't included. Singer Gregory Porter didn't yet rank as a major attraction.
Since then, he has become the fastest rising star in jazz, performing on "The Tonight Show" and winning a Grammy Award for his mesmerizing album "Liquid Spirit." Surely Porter's presence on the Orchestra Hall program helped explain why the house was sold out, including the terrace seating behind the stage.

To/Too/Two Tuesday: March 8, 2011
I get how you could recall deli meat, but I have no idea how you'd be able to recall deli meet. That sounds kinda complicated. It's probably even more complicated than, say, using the right word so you don't make a homonym error...
Thanks to WINONA for finding this one!

On Thursday, Fox's Megyn Kelly interviewed a furious Debra Burlingame about the release from prison of Lynne Stewart, the attorney who conspired with the blind cleric Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman. The "Blind Sheik" was convicted of planning to wage a "war of urban terrorism" against the United States, of which the 1993 WTC bombing killing six people was assumed to be a part. Burlingame is director and co-founder of 9/11 Families for a safe and strong America and the sister of Captain Charles Burlingame, the pilot of the jet that crashed into the Pentagon.After the "Blind Sheik" was sentenced to life in prison he was banned from any communication with the outside world. Stewart, who represented him, violated that that edict, and was convicted in 2005 of helping to smuggle messages from him to his terrorist groups abroad. She was supposed to be in jail until 2018, but U.S. District Judge John Koeltl granted a motion filed by federal prosecutors and the Federal Bureau of Prisons to reduce her sentence.Kelly: This is unbelievable. She had stage-4 breast cancer, and she said she didn't want to die in a strange, loveless place. So, pursuant to a request by the Administration, the judge said, "Off you go," and now she is a free woman. Supposed to be released in 2018.Burlingame: That's right. She's been campaigning, trying to get out on "compassionate release" for some time; she's had cancer for a number of years, and she was actually in remission at one point. They expect her to live another 18 months, maybe less. She looked pretty hale and hearty when she came out at LaGuardia yesterday, giving interviews to the press again. She is a remorseless woman. She calls the blind sheik, whose followers have maimed, mutilated, killed dozens and dozens of people in an effort to get him released; she calls him the hero of the mujahadeen. And she did more than get messages out; she facilitated actual meetings between the blind sheik and his lieutenants, if you will, impersonating a translator inside the maximum prison where he was being held. She pretended to be listening to the translation and… they even joked, she even joked in the middle of one of these settings, that she should get an Academy Award for how well she was doing at pretending to have a lawyer client meeting.Kelly: After one of those messages was sent out, over 60 people were slaughtered in Luxor, Egypt, by members of the blind sheik's organization and the bodies of many of the victims were mutilated by machetes, the torso of one of the female victims was slit by the terrorists and a leaflet calling for the blind sheik's release was inserted. This was after she was helping him smuggle messages out to his followers.Burlingame: It was in 1997, he was imprisoned in '96, you have to remember; she was on his defense team right from the get-go. He was arrested in '93, tried in '95, sentenced in '96. She knows perfectly well what he's done, and that he, in fact, was the spiritual inspiration for Osama bin Laden. Bin Laden said in September of 2000, a year before 9/11, that he was the honorable Omar, Sheik Rahaman and later said he gave the fatwa for 9/11. So he has bloody hands and she was convicted of material support.Kelly: I have to correct myself. So she helped him after that happened, with the people calling for his release knowing that this happened in Egypt, she helped him nonetheless and now is asking for compassion for her.Burlingame: Yes, And it's true. I watched the video of her being interviewed at LaGuardia, I think is where she came in, talked about, "My beloved New York, it's so great to be here." Her beloved New York? The guy she calls the hero of the mujahadeen is responsible for the deaths, directly responsible; as that's his cell that hit the World trade center. 6 people and a 7 ½ month old unborn baby, was blown to pieces in the garage of that place.

Kernel Version ; Apps_2.6.29 5.) Build Number : 1002_1_248 I Have an unlimited monthly data plan with Cincinnati Bell Wireless, which is of course, in the US. I think (which I know you guys will correct me if I am wrong) but the Android OS is the same no matter which device. This is my very first droid device so I am still trying to get the hang of it. But anyways, here are my questions: 1) How do I prevent apps/widgets I am not using or wanting to use from activating automatically while I am using other apps or widgets or while the phone is in standby mode? I use TasKiller to stop them, but they just mysteriously come back on. B) I downloaded some apps that don't show up in the app list, only in manage applications screen. How do I make them show up? III) Can you use a Stylus on these types of touchscreen devices?? Thank you in advance, any and all help is appreciated!

Afterthoughts – TBLS Private Kitchen
I love private kitchens in Hong Kong, they always feel so secretive, like dining in an underground supper club, minus the snobbery. I make it a goal to discover new kitchens tucked into hidden corners of the city, although no private kitchen has yet surpassed my benchmark favourite – TBLS.
To get a coveted spot at TBLS usually means calling months in advance to make a booking – they're not snobby, they're simply in high demand. The menu runs around 5 courses, and are changed monthly based on seasonal ingredients. This little 20-seater is the brainchild of Chef Que Vinh Dang, who comes from a Vietnamese-American heritage and has trained and worked in top kitchens in New York before making the big move to Fragrant Harbour. Que is young, innovative, and like all great chefs, uncompromisingly dedicated to his cuisine. He bases his menu ideas on comfort food, but executes them with creative, immaculate precision. I've never left his restaurant feeling unsatisfied, and really, who could after eating his classic ice-cream macaroon sandwich?
We've recently returned to TBLS for their November menu, and again, were pleasantly satiated.
Our welcome amuse bouche. I was so hungry at this point that I practically inhaled it! All I could remember was the morsel being an incredibly tender, aromatic piece of slow roasted pork nestled in a sweet, buttery mash.
Chef Que always serves the first course as a soup and sandwich combo, but reinvents the content each month. It's a great example of comfort food turned sophisticated. For this particular menu, he paired a maple glazed ham hock sandwich with pumpkin and sage soup. The ham hock was melt-in-your-mouth buttery, and further enhanced with sweet apple jam and fragrant cloves. The pumpkin soup was deliciously silky, and crowned with a ingenious froth of goat cheese. This was an absolute bangin' pairing of flavours!
Next up was a beef pot pie, but not just ANY old pie. The hearty concoction of beef, porcini, bacon and root vegetables was covered with the most buttery, light pie crust I've ever had, thus far, in Hong Kong. This cozy pie will thaw even the frostiest of critics. I had to refrain myself from licking the bowl clean.
Now, on to the seafood course, a delightful assemblage of poached ocean trout over shrimp and crab chowder, topped with crispy fish skin. The trout was cooked perfectly to a blushing rosy orange.
As if the pot pie and seafood assemble weren't filling enough, next, arrived Que's rendition of the turducken. A traditional turducken is the ultimate glutton's feast – a deboned chicken stuffed into a duck and then into a turkey. This frightful (yet also awe-inspiring) mesh mashing of poultry was invented for the French royal family, where it has been recorded in history that 16 birds were stuffed into each other during a royal feast for Louis XVI. What will the French come up with next? This lovely little cooking technique was brought over by the Acadian French to the American South, and subsequently, morphed into the modern day turducken.
My ramblings aside, Que's rendition is on the more sophisticated side, and is composed of sous vide turkey breast, duck foie gras, and crispy chicken confit paired with roasted garlic mash and cranberry sauce. The turkey breast was very tender and the foie gras savoury and silky. I wasn't too crazy about the chicken confit though, as I felt it lacked the delicate contrast of tender meat and crisp skin, which is what comes to mind whenever I think of confit.
Dessert time! But not before we were treated to a palate cleanser of mulled wine sorbet. Very Christmas-y and refreshing!
There was not one, but two, desserts on the menu! First up, a dense roasted chestnut cake topped with a generous dollop of Irish coffee ice cream. I loved the fresh chestnuts baked into the cake, and the Irish coffee ice cream was a zingy surprise.
Finally, what I always look forward to at the end of a meal at TBLS – the giant macaroon ice-cream sandwich! This time, the delicate macaroons were filled with a very R-rated bourbon and rum eggnog ice-cream. Que was incredibly thoughtful after hearing us talk about our recent big news, and sent over beautifully decorated plates with "congrats!" written in chocolate. It was a lovely gesture and a great finish to our amazing dinner.
Verdict: Yes!!! Definitely my top choice for private kitchens in Hong Kong. The menu is ever-changing and always full of surprises. Que is a passionate chef and a great innovator in pairing together contrasting, and also complimenting, flavours. I am always looking forward to my next meal at TBLS! But make sure to book well in advance to avoid any disappointment!

One of the most important beverages is water, which is important to drink for human beings. It cleans all toxins from our body. It also hydrates human body and if we don't intake enough water we can face dehydration. Around 2-3 liters of water should be intake by human in a day. It is important to drink water in every 2 hours to avoid dehydration. When water is so important for well-being, it becomes necessary to intake only purified and treated water. At shoppingmoney you can find mineral water from various retailers from across the country. Water is also beneficial for your skin as it cleans it and prevents wrinkles. It flushes out kidneys and thus helps in keeping them healthy, fit and fine always. This beverage is also important as it keeps you from developing blood clots, which might cause heart attacks. Overall, water is an important component to keep you healthy always. However, some people don't like drinking water so much. If you are one of them and don't like plan water, you can always get flavored water. We are not talking about the flavored water which contains sugar but that contains fruit. There is a huge variety of drinks available on shoppingmoney online portal, to quench your thirst and keep you fit and active always. However, water is not only healthy drink that you can intake but if you have a taste for something else, you can have a variety of other healthy drinks to choose from. Coffee is one of such drink, which is good for your overall health. It can lower the risk of diseases and also lower the risk of developing Type II diabetes. Coffee can also help you in losing your fat and reduce some weight. So, if you want to reduce some of your extra weight and keep yourself away from diseases continue to get your fix. Black coffee is healthier, so if you can, make it your regular fix. We recommend not adding too much sugar and cream to your cup of coffee, as it may not be good for your personal health. Coffee and tea are normally used to start your day but these drinks have a lot of benefits as well. Green tea also prevents a number of diseases and reduces your risk of heart attack. It can also prevent cancer.

That makes sense. I think from looking at my temps that around 96.8-96.9 is average for me. Sometimes I've started AF with temps aroung 97.2 but then a few days later, closer to the end of AF, they drop back to the 96.8 or so. It seems like somewhere between AF and ovulation my temps get really wacky, the up and down stuff. During the time of AF they are very stable though.
I'm super tempted to get a hormone work up while my husband is away, but it can be pricey and I wanted to try everything we can do first. I haven't felt like we really have had a successful cycle avoiding a pregnancy yet. So since he will be gone for a couple of months I really should just wait to see how my body does under observation free from any intercourse and see if things really do return to "normal" during that time.

A game of thrones
Martin George R.r
In a world where the approaching winter will last four decades, kings and queens, knights and renegades struggle for control of a throne. Some fight with sword and mace, others with magic and poison. Beyond the Wall to the north, meanwhile, the Others are preparing their army of the dead to march south as the warmth of summer drains from the land. After more than a decade devoted primarily to TV and screen work, Martin (The Armageddon Rag, 1983) makes a triumphant return to high fantasy with this extraordinarily rich new novel, the first of a trilogy. Although conventional in form, the book stands out from similar work by Eddings, Brooks and others by virtue of its superbly developed characters, accomplished prose and sheer bloody-mindedness. Although the romance of chivalry is central to the culture of the Seven Kingdoms, and tournaments, derring-do and handsome knights abound, these trappings merely giv

**Disclosure: I received a Tassimo coffee brewer in order to facilitate my review. All opinions are my own and may differ from yours.
Tassimo T55 Coffee Brewer
I am honored to add the Tassimo T55 Coffee Brewer to our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide.
You've heard me say how much I love my coffee and can't function without it. The Tassimo T55 Single Serve Home Brewing System features barcode technology that reads the barcode on each T-Disc to automatically determine specific water quantity, brew time and temperature to give you perfectly-made beverages every time.
Wow, a perfect cup of coffee each and every time. Not only coffee, but how about Cappacino's, Latte's, Espresso's, hot chocolate and more! Looking to save some money in the new year? That's usually the first resolution on everyone's list. Saving money. So you look for ways to cut back. Cutting out the latte from your favorite coffee shop is usually on the top of the list.
So, why not get a Tassimo T55 Coffee Brewer and make your own at home. The Tassimo coffee brewer is made by Bosch and is easy to use and has a variety of flavors available. I was all excited because it came with Tim Horton's coffee. We have Tim Horton's back home and it is the best coffee around. I didn't even realize it was available for single serve.
The Tassimor T55 uses T discs. Each T DISC contains an expertly measured portion of coffee, hot chocolate, tea, or liquid milk creamer. When the T DISC is inserted, the TASSIMO single cup brewer uses INTELLIBREWTM to read the barcode printed on the label. The code specifies beverage size, brewing time and optimal temperature required to prepare the beverage. All the brewing occurs inside the T DISC, ensuring perfect quality in every cup.
How to make a Cappacino or Latte: first brew a T DISC of the milk creamer then follow with a T DISC of espresso. Doesn't get any easier than that! Did you know that the Tassimo brewer comes with a re-usable cleaning disc (supplied with machine upon purchase) and should be used in the machine every seven days?
The Tassimo T55 coffee brewer is an amazing machine because it is so versatile and can do so much. This is definitely one gift that should be on your Christmas list this year.
Features of the Tassimo T55 Coffee Brewer are:
One-touch button
Allows you to customize your beverages.
For personalized operation.
Height adjustment
Along with a removable cup stand allows you to fill cups and travel mugs of varying sizes.
Barcode system

Rapid heat-up and first-cup times
Along with a 4-minute brew time let you quickly prepare beverages.
Automatic shutoff
Turns the unit off after a specified amount of time to ensure safe use.
Noise reduction system

Because Someone Has To Do The Impossible "TOURPOCALYPSE 2012"
John Rotellini
Gryphon Theatre
710 E. Garfield
Laramie, WY, 82070
Doors 6:00 PM / Show 7:00 PM (event ends at 8:30 PM)
Watch & Listen
Modern culture is filled with escapes from reality- from video games to television and film, seeing the extroardinary has become common place. Very rarely though, do we see the implossible happen live.
Since 2005, John Rotellini has captivated audiences around the world by doing just that- the impossible. Whether it be performing live in front of thousands, hosting his own radio shows, executing death-defying large scale stunts, or his more recent endeavors into the world of automotive racing, John's passion knows no bounds.
Early on in his childhood, John's developed an interest in magic and illusion. He was astounded by the feats of magicians such as David Copperfield, Lance Burton, Jeff McBride, and Jay Owenhouse. Early on, it was noticed that John had some very big dreams, what was even more surprising was his drive to make them come to fruition. "I've always been a bit of a dreamer, to lend a phrase from a book I recently finished, I guess you could call me an 'incurable optimist.' Often times, I come up with some really far out ideas, but I don't have that give up process that most people have, I guess you could say that I try to imagine anything as being possible."
An athlete, student leader, and philanthropist throughout his middle and highschool years, John kept very busy, but remained interested in the art of magic. His interest soon became a passion, when, in 2005 he began studying the craft after some suggestions from a friend. That study led John to merge magic into his other interests- music, film, hypnotism, mentalism, and stuntwork, creating an experience unlike any other. What has become an obsession for the better part of a decade, John's current work is truly remarkable. His performances aren't simply magic or hypnosis shows, but are more along the lines of living in a hollywood blockbuster full of twists, turns, and danger. No longer is the world of the impossible limited to the silver screen.
Over the years, John has been fortunate to receive wisdom from many of his heroes within the entertainment world. These contacts have included Don Wayne, Andre Kole, Doug Malloy, Chris Carter, Joe Monti, Jay Owenhouse and countless others. "To be able to meet such figures Criss Angel, Lance Burton, Penn & Teller and the man that astounded me as a child; David Copperfield has been an amazing experience... It's great to be able to share in such a rich art form with these individuals." He has also had the pleasure of entertaining some of entertainment's hottest stars, including comedian Kevin Hart and television icon Ross Matthews.
John frequently travels to the magic capital of the world, Las Vegas, Nevada to make contact with his heroes and on occasion guest star in some of the Strip's most critically acclaimed productions.
In 2009, John launched his first theater performance, which opened with a two day run entertaining combined audiences of over 1000. The event, titled The Magic of John Rotellini was held on April 4th and 5th, and was preceded by a stunt on April 1st. The stunt, Rotellini's first was entitled -B L I N D- and required John to spend an entire day without sight, wrapping up with a blind drive through the streets of his hometown in a 2009 Pontiac Solstice roadster.
From there, John has kept very busy, raising thousands of dollars for charities that include Kidd's Kids, Children's Miracle Network, and Relay for Life. In november of 2009, John saw another dream come true as he created, directed , and starred in his first U.S. Tour entitled The Magic of John Rotellini Locked UP. Since then, John has traveled the country entertaining audiences at various colleges and public events to rave reviews. He has been fortunate enough to gain sponsorship from American Crew Men's Products and has had the privilege of having EXPRESS Fashion be the official wardrobe provider for his Tours. Recently, he has been conjuring up new and innovative illusions with the guidance of his heroes, including master illusionist Franz Harary.
One such project has been John's next large scale stunt for which his first tour Tour was titled. Locked UP is his most daring project yet, as John will be putting his life on the line yet again. This time, he will attempt to escape from inside of a locked shipping crate lined with military grade explosives hoisted over 100 feet into the air before the crate, and everything inside detonates. Alongside of this, John has been training for a less lethal stunt in which he plans to predict, in sequence, the nation's largest lottery; The Powerball a full week in advance. Some classics of magic have also been getting an updated overhaul behind the scenes while John prepares to resume his Touring schedule starting on January 25, 2012 with his all new "TOURPOCALYPSE 2012" live show.
Regardless of age, John's blend of high octane, jaw dropping magic, hypnotism, mentalism, music, and film will be sure to leave you speechless. Afterall, how often do you get to live the impossible?

STEVE HANSEN will today reveal how he has solved the biggest dilemma to date of his reign as Wales coach.
The New Zealander could name his strongest side for the clash against Canada at the Millennium Stadium on Saturday.
Or he could keep the All Blacks guessing ahead of Saturday week's contest by fielding another experimental line-up against the Canucks.
The back-row combination will say a lot about Wales's tactical intentions in both games.
Hansen could stick with the back-row trio of Dafydd Jones, skipper Colin Charvis and openside Martyn Williams that prospered during the 58-14 win over Fiji last weekend.
Or he could revert to a less expansive, but more powerful approach by reforming the back-row trio that began the 40-3 win over Romania - switching Charvis to openside and fielding Michael Owen and Scott Quinnell alongside him.
Gavin Thomas and Richard Parks are also in the shakedown after their respective appearances as replacements in the Tests against Romania and Fiji.
Those options allow Hansen the opportunity to keep the All Blacks guessing over the style of play Wales will employ against them on Saturday week.
Hansen revealed some of his thinking by stating the side that won widespread plaudits for the performance against Fiji contained the core of his favoured Test team.
Quinnell played no part in that and if Wales are to attempt to subdue the All Blacks in a forward-orientated game-plan, then the British Lions No 8 is due for some involvement against Canada, even if he is to come off the bench.
Hansen said, "By now people might realise the core of the team has not changed too much, especially when you look at the last Test in
South Africa and the side that played against Fiji.
"We are trying to get some consistency in the side but, at the same time, we want to introduce people to an understanding of how we want to play the game. "Before finalising the side to play New Zealand we have to look at what injuries and form we have."
If by the core of the team, Hansen was referring to the half-backs and pack, the team's core is certainly largely intact.
But since the 19-8 defeat in Cape Town only one member outside the half-backs started against Fiji and even in that instance Rhys Williams has switched to full-back from wing in the wake of Kevin Morgan's injury absence.
The entire threequarter line has since been dismantled with injuries and form playing their part.
Mark Taylor and Craig Morgan are both out of contention to face Canada because of injury.
Morgan's pinched shoulder nerve could recover for him to be considered against the All Blacks, but Andy Marinos has seen his midfield role taken by Sonny Parker.
Llanelli's Mark Jones has taken over the right-wing berth occupied by Cardiff's Rhys Williams in June.
Up front, Robin McBryde is expected to reclaim the hooking duties from Mefin Davies, while Iestyn Thomas and Ben Evans are in leading positions for the prop roles against the All Blacks.
That leaves Hansen to ponder who to perm from second-row contenders Robert Sidoli, Gareth Llewellyn and Steve Williams, while he has yet to give Vernon Cooper game or bench time since naming him in his autumn squad.
Llewellyn and Williams were Wales's second-row partnership in South Africa, but Pontypridd's Sidoli made a big impression against Romania and Fiji.
During training this week, Hansen has emphasised successful techniques at line-out drives - an area that caused him concern against Fiji.
The Wales coach said, "Our body positions in the drive are still probably too high. We can be a lot better in that respect.
"Our work in contact can still get better and there are a few things in our back play we are working on.
"We are continually multi-skilling our players so that forwards can be backs and backs can be forwards, but still do their basic core jobs really well."

By Heather Perry, Editor-in-Chief
Our objection is that we did what we were told by the university and after we did what we were told to do the landing page of The Mooring Mast's website was taken down.
Here's the long version.
The Mooring Mast editorial board understands now that placing "F--- S--- Up drops the ball" as a headline was not our best decision and have apologized for it. We're not defending that decision to use such obscenity and profanity in that case, though we have used it appropriately in the past.
Just because that article came in around 10:30 p.m. on production night does not give us the excuse to take such use of profanity and obscenity so lightly.
We've admitted our error in judgment and will continue to do so.
However, we are objecting to how the university handled the situation. We complied with all of the requests made by university officials, and yet our landing page was still taken offline without any explanation until searched out one.
I'll start at the beginning. At 9:10 a.m. Dec. 2, I was emailed by Associate Director of Student Involvement and Leadership Amber Ballion that a Pacific Lutheran official had removed the dodgeball article teaser from the landing page of our website, which is located at www.plu.edu.
In order for the article to be placed back online, Ballion stipulated that the headline must be changed. Nowhere in that email did she refer to the copy of the article.
She cited the reasoning in the email as that the use of obscene and profane words "directly violates that AP style book guidelines related to profanity/obscenity." In fact, it does not.
To clarify, the AP stylebook is a set of guidelines, not rules. The Mooring Mast is also in the process of creating our own stylebook, so asking us to comply with a stylebook that we do not always follow was an interesting demand.
Even though we may not have agreed with their reasoning, we complied with what they asked and changed the headline to "F#$k S&!t Up drops the ball" and reposted the article. We also added this editor's note to the beginning of the article:
Editor's note: At 9:10 a.m. Dec. 2, an unidentified Pacific Lutheran University staff member pulled the teaser to a dodgeball article on The Mooring Mast's website because the headline that read "Fuck Shit Up drops the ball" "directly violates that AP style book guidelines related to profanity/obscenity," according to an email sent by Associate Director of Student Involvement and Leadership Amber Ballion. The AP stylebook does not in fact prevent any use of profanity, instead permitting newspapers to use profanity when the paper determines "there is a compelling reason." The Mooring Mast used the profanity because the name of the losing dodgeball team contained profanity and the university allowed the name F.S.U. – popularly recognized by the dodgeball community as Fuck Shit Up – as the name of an intramural dodgeball team. While the recorded name of the team was F.S.U., sophomore team members Erik Hummer and Jordan Scanlan said the most common interpretation of their acronym was the phrase, "Fuck Shit Up." The Mooring Mast determined it appropriate to use the spelled out acronym in the headline, as we deemed it suitable for expressing the renegade culture of dodgeball. We replaced the headline around 10:30 a.m. Dec. 2 to read "F#$k S&!t Up drops the ball," but are leaving the profanity in the article.
After writing this editor's note I, along with other members of the editorial board, attempted to contact Executive Director of University Communications Greg Brewis, who Ballion instructed us to contact if we had any further questions.
We were not able to reach Brewis at his office, where we were instructed he was not there and would not meet with us without an appointment; over the phone through his assistant or his work line; or through email.
We were not contacted further about this issue until I approached Vice President for Student Life and Dean of Students Laura Majovski after discovering our website was taken entirely offline at 1:17 p.m. with no explanation whatsoever from the university.
We then were able to meet with Brewis for about half an hour.
During that interview, Brewis said he respected our decisions. To which I responded with asking that if he respected our decisions, then why did he not speak to us before taking anything offline or ask about our decision-making process.
"Well it wouldn't matter," Brewis said, adding there wouldn't be any obscenity on the PLU website.
Well if there wouldn't be any obscenity on the PLU website, we asked why the word "b----" was not objected to, since it was included in the same issue in the Focus section of the newspaper. He said there were varying degrees of obscenity and profanity and didn't want to use a blanket rule for them, but recognized "b----" as a profane word.
We also asked about other profanity and obscenity on the PLU website. He said he couldn't speak to those.
Overall, we just wanted our website back online so we asked how that could happen. He said that if all obscene and profane words were removed from that article he would put the website back online immediately.
We complied with his demands after an editorial board meeting, and at 5:30 p.m. our website was back online.
We haven't heard anything since from university officials.
In the end, all I want from the university is to understand their thought process in taking such drastic measures of removing our article teaser or landing page without discussing anything with us.
We understand they have the right to do so because we attend a private university, but since we have always operated as an open forum, we want to know why and how the university decided to exercise complete control over editorial content for the first time that we know of.

OK. I am at a loss. I was a BIG fan of Shanghai Lee on Manhattan Avenue for many years. But since they have closed up, I am having a hard time finding a formidable replacement.
Some of my favorite dishes are General Tsao Chicken and Sesame Chicken. Now what I find is that in most Chinese restaurants, they are prepared exactly the same, except at the end, they sprinkle a few sesame seeds on the Sesame Chicken. And they all taste like sweet and sour chicken. Shanghai Lee's version of them was the best I have ever had. Each had a unique flavor. The Sesame Chicken was sweet and crispy, the Generals was spicy and had a strong garlic flavor with lots of hot peppers.
Also, I want my fried rice to be brown, not yellow. What is up with all these places using spanish rice???
Any recommendations?

Tonkin on transfer list
By Mark Buckingham
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Tonkin has attracted the attention of Crewe Alexandra and the First Division outfit had a bid for the 23-year-old rejected earlier in the summer.
Crewe's valuation of the defender falls way below that of Hatters boss Palmer, who forked out £50,000 to sign Tonkin from Yeovil last September.
Palmer is angry at Tonkin's transfer request and is upset at the chain of events that has prompted the youngster's desire to leave Edgeley Park.
"I've reluctantly accepted a transfer request from Tonks," Palmer told Sky Sports. "I'm not particularly happy about it.
"I've said to the players that I have no problem with any of them wanting to go on and better themselves.
"But, if an agent tries to engineer a move, which is the situation at Crewe, it isn't right and I won't have it.
"Tonks now finds himself out of the magic circle and he's got to hope now that Crewe come up with the money that I'm asking for because he won't leave for the money they've offered."
Tonkin could end up in limbo as Crewe boss Dario Gradi last week revealed he had no immediate plans to increase his offer for the full back.
Stockport boss Palmer's woes continued with the news that Aaron Lescott will miss the first three weeks of the season with a groin injury sustained in the weekend friendly against Carlisle United.

The Republican primary for Governor will be held on Tuesday, June 8th, 2010. Next week, we will be exactly one year away from knowing who the Republican nominee will be. With the field of candidates beginning to take shape, it's now an ideal time to see what Iowans think about the prospective candidates for governor.
Next Thursday, The Iowa Republican and WHO Radio personality Steve Deace, will join together to hold The Iowa Republican Gubernatorial Straw Poll. The poll will open at noon on Thursday, June 11th and close at 6 p.m. Votes will be cast using text message. The details on how to sign up to cast your vote will appear on this website in the coming days.
Beginning on Monday, The Iowa Republican will focus on each candidate's strengths and weaknesses. Steve Deace will also give his analysis, which will appear on The Iowa Republican. The candidates who will be included in the poll are Jeff Lamberti, Paul McKinley, Chris Rants, and Bob Vander Plaats. Those candidates were selected because I feel that each of them have a better than 50% shot of being on the ballot on June 8, 2010.
I understand that there have been other names mentioned as possible candidates, and there are also candidates like State Representative Rod Roberts and State Senator Jerry Behn who have publically indicated that they are interested in running for governor. Their exclusion from the poll should not be construed as hostility towards their potential candidacies, but at this time, I feel there is a better than 50% chance that they will not ultimately be on the ballot in June of 2010.
Like any poll, The Iowa Republican Gubernatorial Straw Poll will simply provide us with a snapshot one year out from the primary. 365 days is an eternity in politics. New candidates can emerge, existing candidates can fade, and the issue set can totally change at the blink of an eye.
Those candidates included in the poll are encouraged to send The Iowa Republican their web address, photo, and biography. They can also submit an op-ed about either their own candidacy or about the current condition of our state.
The results of the poll will be announced live on Deace in the Afternoon after the poll closes at 6 p.m. People are also encouraged to submit letters to the editor if they want to go public with their support of a candidate. Those letters will be posted on the same day as that particular candidate is showcased. Letters can be submitted by emailing me at [email protected]
Profile Schedule:
Monday: Jeff Lamberti
Tuesday: Paul McKinley
Wednesday: Chris Rants
Thursday: Bob Vander Plaats

Funk, Rock, and Reggae with The Get Right Band
The Asheville-based funk/rock/reggae band The Get Right Band is guitarist singer Silas Durocher, his longtime bassist pal Jesse Gentry, and drummer Chris Pyle—and yes, if the words "drummer" and "Pyle" ring a bell, turns out that Chris is related to rock n roll royalty. His dad is former Lynyrd Skynyrd drummer Thomas Delmer "Artimus" Pyle. Get Right's got a new album out: The Get Right Band, and they'll bring several selections to the Triad next weekend at Bull's Tavern in Winston-Salem Friday night at 10:00PM. But first they'll need to pack up their gear and head home from St. Thomas Island in the Caribbean. It was there that David Ford caught up with the band huddled around their cell phone.
We sample from their new self-titled album. You can hear the band in Brevard live at the Phoenix on Tuesday night January 28th and they'll be in concert Friday night, January 31st at 10:00 PM at Bull's Tavern in Winston-Salem.

Illinois needs rest after trip west
DENVER – The Illinois women's soccer team couldn't sustain its Rocky Mountain high on Sunday, losing 3-2 in overtime to the University of Denver.
Coming off a 2-1 overtime victory against Colorado College on Friday, the Illini took a 2-0 halftime lead but couldn't hold on, giving up two goals in the final 20 minutes of regulation and the game-winner three minutes into overtime.
"We were on the road and a little tired for sure, but even so we should win when we're up 2-0," Illinois head coach Tricia Taliaferro said. "We have a tendency to lose focus and not finish."
The focus was evident early in the first half, Emily Brown notching her school-record 18th goal on a pass from defender Kim Doetzel. It was Brown's fourth goal in three games.
With an assist from Brown, senior midfielder Kelly Buszkiewicz added a score at 27 minutes, seven seconds.
But Denver (8-9-1) outshot the Illini 22-16, Kerri Weaver scoring at 79:24 and Molly George at 82:54. Illinois had a late goal waved off because of an offside call.
Denver's Jessie Nelson redirected a free kick at 3:04 of overtime to complete the comeback.
"The whole team played well in the first half," Brown said. "We lowered our level of play in the second half and let them back in it, unfortunately."
The Illini (11-7-2) next plays a first-round Big Ten tournament match against Iowa at 11 a.m. Friday in Bloomington, Ind. The semifinals are Saturday and the final Sunday.

Sharing has certainly gained momentum in the field of transport over recent years. Yet with 30 million lift shares under its belt, this emerging economy is nothing new to Liftshare.
For over 17 years, this U.K.-based, social enterprise has been opening eyes to an underutilised, yet abundant resource in our daily lives – empty seats in cars.
There's been a huge amount of attention on making vehicles more fuel efficient, on electric vehicles, but the simplest way to boost fuel efficiency is for cars to have more passengers, points out Ali Clabburn (photo above), founder and managing director. A car with a passenger is 100% more efficient than with just a driver.
Liftshare enables organised car sharing by connecting people travelling in the same direction so they can arrange to travel together, share the costs… and play a part in reducing road congestion and air pollution. Yet unlike other more recent players (Uber, BlaBlaCar, et al.), the company has been on this sustainable mobility drive since 1998!
Having gained considerable experience in the field along the way, its offer today comprises a free service to individuals; a pay-for corporate platform to help businesses set up their own online journey-matching tools; marketing and events support; plus myPTP – a personal travel planning tool (developed in house) that integrates data for multiple modes of transport.
To date, nearly 700,000 people have used Liftshare across the U.K. and some 4 million car seats are available in any given week. When setting up the business, I thought it would appeal to young male students looking for rides over the weekends, says Mr Clabburn. Yet our users are all ages, all profiles, and we have more women than men sharing. Also there's often a misconception that you have to have a car to lift share. We don't want to oblige everyone to have wheels!
The company generates a annual turnover of around £1.3 million (€1.8m) and employs a team of 30, working out of its head office in Norwich (East of England). Used by more than 700 corporate communities, its professional roster includes Jaguar Land Rover, Vodafone, Tesco, Thames Valley Park, Whitbread, Cobalt Business Park (North Tyneside), and EDF Energy.
Over the past few months we've been gathering case studies from these clients to study in detail what really happens, i.e. feedback and figures, in the field… and it's really amazing! reports Mr Clabburn. The communities we've launched this year [2015] have already saved millions [of pounds].
By way of example, in November 2015, Great Western Hospitals NHS Trust inaugurated a Liftshare scheme to ease the pressure on its oversubscribed car park; the aim being to incentivise its 4,000-strong workforce to car share or find alternative transport to use during the commute to/from work.
To encourage individuals to sign up (to date 30% of staff have registered), radical changes to parking were implemented. Before the scheme was initiated, 3,600 hospital employees had parking permits; but there were only 1,800-spaces. Parking costs £5 (€6.8) per month and was largely unrestricted: it was split as roughly two-thirds for patients, one third staff. A tough and controversial decision was taken by the hospital to implement drastic changes. Fees for parking were hiked up to £1 (€1.4) per day. And staff were restricted to parking six days in a fortnight, except weekends, unless there were special circumstances.
The success of the initiative has seen the hospital freeing up an average of 250 extra spaces for patients every day.
Meanwhile in Scotland, a three-year project set up in the Black Isle, called Million Miles, has exceeded expectations to reduce the number of car miles on local roads. The project surpassed its original target of one million (1.5km) by 30%, i.e. 1,352,277 less miles, which equates to saving 718 tonnes of carbon a year. The Liftshare scheme saw 726 members register and 23% of those sharing their journey on a regular basis.
We use lift sharing as one of the key planks to cut down on car miles, comments Marion McDonald, transport project officer, Million Miles. People generally travel quite significant distances so the cost savings do add up quickly.
Online community: a group of people with common interests who use the internet (web sites, email, instant messaging, etc.) to communicate, work together, and pursue their interests over time.
One of the driving forces behind Liftshare, and indeed any successful sharing economy platform, is its community spirit. I think community is in all of us, reckons Mr Clabburn. However since the 60s, marketeers have been trying to get us to focus on being individuals in order to drive up consumption. But I think people are now realising the importance and power of communities. Indeed social networks have proven just this.
Online communities break down barriers, create trust, make daily life more efficient, sociable, and affordable. The whole sharing economy shows that people can take the next phase in that development and get back to doing things together – not necessarily through friends or family, but online.
According to a BBC survey, 7 out of 10 people have not yet tried lift sharing. Bearing in mind the childhood warning 'never get into a car with a stranger', do fears over safety present a barrier to joining the Liftshare movement?
Mr Clabburn doesn't see things quite this way, preferring to answer my question with his question – so what is a stranger? And on reflection, it is worth assessing one's personal 'tipping point'. When does a stranger become a friend or a colleague? How many times do you have to meet them? What do you have to know about them? Do you trust people you know through friends? If you see their profile picture? If they have positive reviews?
Safety is, of course, something everyone must be aware of, admits Mr Clabburn. But one thing we've found within the whole sharing economy is that different business models impact behaviour very differently. Over the past 17 years at Liftshare we are unaware of any incidents, physical abuse, or anthing of this nature. Occasionally you get users who are upset because someone has let them down or hasn't turned up. But then they just have to give them a bad rating and that's it.
Very much part of the online landscape today, ratings and review systems serve to significantly increase trust within the community in question, and to boost the credibility of the company, services, or products on offer. Since its beginnings, Liftshare has used, then removed, and most recently reinstalled a brand new such system.
We had one in the early years, but took it out because pretty much everyone was rating well, or we found they weren't being entirely honestly because they were worried the other person would rate them badly, explains Mr Clabburn.
Also, at this time a lot of our users were sharing regular rides, so they didn't need to review the same driver again and again. Basically the system wasn't adding value. But about three to four years ago, our members started to expect it and use it differently, plus they were more honest when posting. Plus, don't forget that a car doesn't have just two seats but five, so if a driver receives positive feedback, this can help fill up their car, and everyone spends even less than before as a consequence.
Since implementating the new and improved system in 2013, 70% of of the Liftshare community have been rated 10/10, with the average being 8. Furthermore, to overcome one issue experienced by members – not receiving a timely response from others, thus making it difficult to plan in advance – Quick responder badges are added to all listings from members who reply to messages received, on average, within 24 hours.
This new badge is designed to help members searching, so they can easily identify and contact those they know are likely to respond promptly, explains Liftshare.
Another tool up Liftshare's sleeve is its personal travel planner MyPTP. Demand for personalised travel planning has grown over the last ten years, then delined a little because it became incredibly expensive to deliver to many people, says Mr Clabburn. But we built an online version that is far more cost effective, and has a greater impact on user behaviour than anything else. It's done really well and there's huge potential to more with it.
Unique to MyPTP, lift sharing is put on a level playing field with other transport options. The app takes every mode – walking, cycling, the bus, train, car – and breaks up the journey between them. It also builds in park and ride, proposing locations to car drivers along their routes plus the bus departure and journey times into town. Thus giving users all the information needed for a seamless journey across different modes.
We have really good partnerships with companies like Stagecoach, says Mr Clabburn, whereby we help them get more people on their buses, and they help us get more people into cars. Also with train operators, getting people to share car rides to stations.
MyPTP is a cross between Google Transit + Liftshare + City Mapper, with the ultimate aim being to improve the whole end-to-end journey, he sums up.
There seems to be little not to like about lift sharing – it helps take cars off the roads, alleviates parking and congestion headaches, reduces carbon emissions, promotes healthier and more sustainable ways to get to work, and creates greater accessibility to jobs.
Yet despite ticking all these boxes, such mobility is not particularly GDP friendly. This might explain why the U.K. government and politicians are not giving it more support, e.g. by investing in high occupancy lanes (HOL) that provide faster travel times to people who use limited capacity more efficiently. When widening the M1 motorway (running between the north and south of England, between the cities of London and Leeds) in 2007 there was talk of including 17 miles of HOL. Yet these plans were quietly scrapped in 2008.
I travelled over North America in 2007 looking at a lot of its HOLs, seeing how the authorities invest in them and how they work, says Mr Clabburn.
In Washington State, the existing 200 miles [322km] should be extended to 300 miles [483km] by 2020. The State Authority here spend some US$5 million [€4.6m] annually on promoting car pooling [i.e. lift sharing], which is probably 10 times the amount spent collectively on promoting this mode of transport in the U.K.! And they consider its 20,000 users really good value for money.
In comparison the scheme we used to run for TfL [Transport for London], LondonLiftshare, had 30,000 car pooling users, but they stopped funding the service in 2008.
A 2015 report by Deloitte – 'Smart mobility: Reducing congestion and fostering faster, greener, and cheaper transportation options' – confirms that all different forms of car sharing are indeed clear wins.
After examining the impacts of various new transport modes on cities in the US, its analysts reveal that car/lift/ride sharing come out on top, with the potential to offer around US$30 billion [€27.6b] in annual savings to individuals and cities from reduced congestion, deferred road construction, and lower carbon emissions. Car clubs, i.e. car sharing, come second, with potential savings of up to US$3 billion [€2.7b] a year.
In the U.K., car clubs have benefitted from a significant amount of funding support from the government, with a number of pilot/demonstration towns and cities across the country, comments Mr Clabburn. But lift sharing hasn't had anything, ever.
Another reason, he suggests, behind this lack of support for the lift sharing cause may be that it is almost too simple: involving no real capital cost, but rather marketing and behavioural change, no one is going to make a huge amount of money out of it. Therefore no one has the money to do a good job campaigning for it.
Having met pretty much every transport minister over the years, I've noticed that they tend to love lift sharing most when in opposition, he adds. But once in power, they turn their attention to more 'important/photo opportunity' matters such as building more roads or bigger trains.
Let's not forget the climate crisis, as highlighted by the COP21 summit held in Paris at the end of 2015. Here Mr Clabburn was a panel guest at the EU flagship event 'transport decarbonisation as an engine for growth', hosted by Violeta Bulc, European Commissioner for Transport.
With around about one fifth of EU greenhouse emissions coming from transport systems, efforts are ongoing to develop cleaner fuels and technologies. And while no one denies they are moves in the right direction, such changes not going mainstream anytime soon. In the meantime, counters Mr Clabburn, a solution like lift sharing, which reduces the number of cars on the roads and consequently C02 emissions, is available now!
By 2050, more than 9 billion people will call the planet home and 70% of them will be living in urban areas. Given these figures, the need to adapt our attitdes to mobility sooner, rather than too later, is pretty obvious. But are we turning a blind eye?
The easier it becomes to match up lift offers and demands, the more likely people are to adopt this kind of transport alternative, reckons Mr Clabburn. I think in the future we will be sharing cars out of necessity. But I'd just like to see us doing it before it we have no choice in the matter. People become a community in a crisis situation, as was the case during 9/11, the London bombings [2005], and the Paris terrorist attacks [2015].
In New York, following the events of September 11 in 2001, a ban on single occupancy vehicles driving during rush hour into Manhattan was imposed as a security measure. It resulted in a surge in car and lift sharing.
We are in a climate crisis today, points out Mr Clabburn, but since its impacts have yet to touch our daily lives, this community spirit has yet to manifest.
Despite his many years in the field, Mr Clabburn is still a man on a mission. Right now in the U.K., about 1% of the population has signed up with Liftshare, he tells Mobility, which is just scratching the surface. Our objective is 20%, so there's still plenty of work to be done. We'd like to do to car travel what recycling has done to waste, or smoking bans to smoking behaviour.
Yet he is not against the car per se, seeing nothing necessarily anything wrong with single occupancy vehicles when the only transport option. His real gripe? People complaining about traffic congestion, pollution, and fuel prices while continuing to drive with empty seats.

This paper presents a high-performance current controller for the permanent-magnet linear synchronous motor considering the bandwidth and disturbances caused by the parameter variation and thrust ripple. First, an improved predictive current control (PCC) scheme based on the discretized model is proposed to increase the current control bandwidth. Besides the time-delay issue, it is noteworthy that the parameter variation in the PCC method can degrade the steady-state response. Through utilizing the information of first two sampling periods, the proposed PCC strategy can overcome such two issues at the same time. Second, a new discrete-time linearization observer is designed to estimate the thrust ripple. Then, the ripple can be suppressed by injecting the estimated value into the control system. Meanwhile, the stability analysis is given by the Lyapunov stability theory. A precise test platform based on the aerostatic guideway is established, and experimental results are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness and correctness of the proposed scheme. © 2015 IEEE.

LAP up some chicken soup, Vietnamese pho, down a curry or chew on some chilli tonight if cold and flu season is knocking over your office colleagues.
That's the health advice being offered after research released today revealed the virtues of chicken soup to help relieve the symptoms of a dreaded winter cold or flu.
Currently, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), rhinovirus and picornavirus are the most common respiratory viruses circulating in Australia.
Compared with recent years, it appears that the 2013 winter flu season will be starting later than normal, said the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing.
While there were 5097 laboratory-confirmed cases of influenza reported up until July 5, the number of influenza associated hospitalisations so far in 2013 remains low.
In the past fortnight there has been an almost 60 per cent increase in the number of notifications reported to the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System. Increases are mainly in NSW, Victoria and South Australia.
A study by the Universitry of Nebraska Medical Centre suggested chicken soup may contain a number of substances with beneficial medicinal activity.
A mild anti-inflammatory effect could be one mechanism by which the soup could result in the mitigation of symptomatic upper respiratory tract infections, it found.
The Australian Chicken Meat Federation survey reported 58 per cent of Australians enjoy chicken soup when they have cold and flu symptoms with an overwhelming 87 per cent opting for it because it makes them feel better.
About a third say they are convinced that it can help relieve their actual cold and flu symptoms.
"When you are feeling sick and maybe not drinking as much water and you are sweating and maybe have a fever, you're running to the loo or whatever, you have additional food requirements," said nutritionist and dietitian, Dr Joanna McMillan.
"So yes chicken soup is ticking a few boxes. It's nutrient rich, it's got some protein there. So if you are losing some weight while you are sick you are trying to prevent losing some muscle, it's rehydrating you, it's providing a little bit of salt in the stock that replenishes any sodium losses in your sweat and it's giving those antinflammatory effects.
"I do think it's a big psychological thing with something particularly like chicken soup, if you really feel you are eating something nutritious, if you feel like you are doing something good for your body that alone has a strong placebo affect to help make us feel better."
Add to that garlic, lemon zest, fresh herbs and chilli, she said.
"So often these things are nonsense but in this case, things like ginger and garlic and chilli and so on actually have viral and antimicrobial qualities to them. So they are potentially good for us," she said.
"The bottom line is that yes, food does have a role to play both in boosting your immune function and in helping you in fighting infection once it has taken hold."
Fruit and veg: Vitamin C in citrus, vegies and Kiwi fruit boosts the immune system
Meat: Zinc in chicken thighs, oysters and beef help immune function
Garlic: Contains antioxidants and antibacetrials
Ginger: The root has anti-inflammatory properties
Chillis: Contains antipathogens used to kills germs and preserve food
