Two youths, believed to be past masters in hijacking taxis, were arrested early on Monday by officers of Muchipara police station. A taxi they had stolen from Howrahs Golabari area was impounded.
Muchipara police station officer-in-charge (OC) Naseem Ali said Chandan Gupta and Bijoy Kumar Gupta had hired a taxi late on Sunday from Pilkhana. They took it to the red-light area in Sovabazar, where they spent an hour. From there, they proceeded to Sealdah, said Ali.
The duo travelled aimlessly in the taxi for more than two hours from 10.30 pm. By this time, they had struck up a camaraderie with taxi driver Ram Narayan Yadav. When the taxi arrived near Surendranath College, at Sealdah, Chandan got off to buy a sachet of gutkha and asked driver Yadav to accompany him to the shop, said Ali. Yadav obliged readily.
His error was that he left the taxi keys in the ignition. While Chandan and Yadav were walking towards a pan shop, Bijoy started the car. He drove up close to them, with the front door to the left open. According to their plan, Chandan would push aside the driver and board the taxi, explained OC Ali.
But Chandan failed to hop on to the taxi and Bijoy sped away. Driver Yadav raised an alarm, which was heard by policemen patrolling the area. Our men chased Chandan, who was fleeing down Mahatma Gandhi Road, and pinned him down. On interrogation, he disclosed Bijoys whereabouts, added Ali.
A raid was conducted in Golabari to round up Bijoy. During interrogation, he broke down and revealed the spot where he had hidden the stolen taxi.
Police are grilling the arrested youths to check out their antecedents. We think they are not new to the crime. Our counterparts in Howrah have been asked to ferret out more details about the duo, said an officer of Muchipara police station.
A few days ago, four youths had hired a taxi from Ultadanga to take them to Jagacha, in Howrah. There, they shot the driver and threw him out of the vehicle. On hearing gunshots, residents of the area alerted the police. A chase followed, and the car rammed into a tree. Two of the gangsters were rounded up.
Criminals from Howrah are sneaking into the city. Taxi hijacks are on the rise. The stolen cars are taken to the border with Bihar, to be sold off, disclosed a senior officer of the Lalbazar police headquarters.

May 28, 2011. Washington. With only hours remaining before three provisions of the Patriot Act were set to expire, Congress passed Senate Act 990, extending the spying practices for an additional four years. While the debate was heated and passionate on both sides, the Act's ultimate passage was expected. What wasn't expected however, was a parade of bizarre revelations, including an apocalyptic warning from two members of the Senate Intelligence Committee who oppose the Patriot Act extension.
As members of the Senate Intelligence Committee, the two Senators have an inside view of the methods and actions being taken in the name of the Patriot Act. Unfortunately, they report that the Federal government refuses to reveal exactly how they interpret the Act. In fact, much if not all of the government's vast network of spying on American citizens remains a secret. The secrecy itself is one of the loop holes that the Patriot Act provides.
After strategic positioning by Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) in favor of the extension, and a last-ditch effort by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) to defeat or water it down, the Patriot Act extension passed in the Senate 72-23. Immediately following, the House passed the measure 250-153.
The action preceding the vote was contentious, if not outright bizarre. For starters, the Patriot Act extension wasn't titled 'the Patriot Act extension'. It was called the 'Small Business Additional Temporary Extension Act of 2011'. Another curious item is that the votes in both houses fell along party lines with the Republicans supporting the Act and Democrats opposing it. But its chief promoter and the man who single-handedly delayed the vote until there was no time left for debate, much less Amendments, is a Democrat, Harry Reid. And the chief opponent and the man who single-handedly delayed a vote until his two Amendments could be voted on, was a Republican, Sen. Rand Paul. Each found themselves on the opposite side of their own parties.
The vote also fell along philosophical lines with ACLU-style liberal Democrats joining with old-school Republican Constitutionalists and pro-second Amendment defenders in opposing the Patriot Act extension. Ironically, absent in the defense of the U.S. Constitution were most of the newly-elected and newly-supported members of the House's pro-Constitution Tea Party Caucus. In February, much like Thursday's vote, twenty-six members of the House's pro-Constitution Tea Party voted in favor of the Patriot Act extension. Among them were potential Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI).
View the official Roll Call vote at www.gop.gov. Do any of our readers see something unusual with that website domain? If you look closely, you'll notice that it's an official website of the United States Federal government (.gov). But at the same time, it's the official "website of the Republican Majority in Congress". Many Americans are already outraged that the US taxpayer is forced to pay for the conventions and primary elections of these non-governmental organizations. Now, the line between 'government' and 'party' is blurred even more with the Federal government hosting the Republican Party website.
The final head-scratching event connected with the Patriot Act extension was the way it was signed into law. With the Act scheduled to expire only minutes after the Senate and House approved its extension, President Obama needed to officially sign the document in person. Many experts agreed throughout the previous week that the document would have to be flown to France where the President was currently visiting. But when the time came however, the document was physically signed by a robot.
Yes, according to the White House, with the President in Europe, his signature would be made by an auto-pen machine that holds the pen and mimics the President's actual signature. Obama administration spokespeople explained, "It is only used with proper authorization of the President".
Interesting would be an understatement.

Guerlain presents a new perfume in its Aqua Allegoria Collection with a citrusy, airy and fresh aroma named Aqua Allegoria Bergamote Calabria. As the name of the perfume inspires, Guerlain released a fresh perfume, with the main ingredient bergamot known to be the most widely used fresh note in the perfumery niche. Famous perfumer Thierry Wasser created this clean and refresh perfume to please women during the day with a nice and sensual aroma.
Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Bergamote Calabria opens with a fruity juicy green aroma, 'astringently petrol-like feel of what bergamot should smell like.' It blends fresh bergamot along with ginger and cardamom, spices and petitgrain notes calmed on a woody base of white musk and wood. I must admit that neither of Aqua Allegorias I like, their smells are not so bad, nor good - to me they smell cheap. Even though I like their designs, these perfumes are not on my wish list. Hope the new Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Bergamote Calabria to impress me better as I seek a nicely refreshing and clean perfume for this spring.

Houses schmouses
OMG the house is a mess. I have wrapping paper all over downstairs and clothes all over upstairs. Jer and I have been sooo busy lately. Not only because of the impending holidays, but also because we are looking to move into Portland proper early next year.
The move is spurned mostly because Jer can grow his film and photography business more by being closer to the action. I'm also motivated by the market that is leveling out in the city so the prices aren't as freaking insane, although in general it costs more to live in the city, we can afford it now. I'm also ready for fixing up an older home, but it must have LOTS of character (fireplace, built-ins, etc.) but thats pretty easy to find in our price range in Portand too. But I won't move at all unless we find my dream house as I'm all idealistic and shite. I want to bring Max the cat too though. I'd miss him sooo much. He's my bebe kittie!
We'd probably still have a weekly trek back out here to the burbs for certain shopping, etc. (especially with Panera Bread that will hopefully open soon OMG I WANT!) but if we live in Portland, my commute will be a lot less (Jeremy's will probably save a bit, but not as much... we'd have to live in Tigard or Lake Oswego to speed his up significantly). Oh and since I'm ghetto, Walmart would be closer if we lived in the city. Hee! Yeah, we're going to get burned at the stake by our neighbors I think as we don't share the yippie point of view (rich/yuppie hippies).
The search will go full force in January most likely. We're getting all our ducks in a row.

A bidding war could soon begin between NHS organisations and private companies for the contract to run the bankrupt South London Healthcare Trust.
South London Healthcare Trust runs three hospitals in the capital and serves around three million people. Earlier this summer it was put into the hands of government administrator Matthew Kershaw because it was losing £1 million a week.
On Thursday, Mr Kershaw announced that he had invited both private companies and NHS organisations to submit interest in taking over the trust, which has a turnover of £424 million.
Mr Kershaw wrote that he was "seeking to identify any parties who may be interested in being part of one or more of the solutions".
This statement indicates that different services could be sold off to be run by different providers. Firms including Virgin Care, Serco and Circle could submit formal expressions of interest.
In February, Circle became the first private firm in the UK to take over the management of a general NHS hospital. Hichingbrooke Hospital in Cambridgeshire has seen improved waiting times and happier customers since the takeover, but these improvements need to be sustainable.
South London Healthcare Trust has sizeable debts, including paying more than £60 million towards two Private Finance Initiative (PFI) schemes.
A spokesman for Virgin Care said the firm had to evaluate the situation before deciding whether or not to submit a formal expression of interest. According to the Telegraph, no-one from either Circle or Serco was available for comment.
Health Insurance quotes from only £15 per month!
A great service from the initial call, to finalising the agreement. I would highly recommend to my family and friends.
Proactive, efficient, and offered me insurance I need. I would say half price I would end up paying if I did it by myself. Many thanks.
Excellent service. Explained everything in detail and really helped to find the right insurance best suited to my needs - which wasn't necessarily the most expensive.
Good value and the advisor was very helpful and recommended the best policy for my grandson. I would definitely use this service again and recommend to others.
We were contacted in good time to make a knowledgable choice. We were given plenty of options with lots of information to enable us to make the right choice.
The service I received was excellent, the staff member was very efficient and knowledgable. She went out of her way to get the best policy for me.
Great service. I really appreciated the help provided by Active Quote to arrange health insurance. The agent was very informative and proactive. Many thanks!
I received excellent care and attention from the first phone call till the last. Friendly, efficient and patient.
Staff are very helpful, friendly and polite. They call back when they say they will and keep you up to date with progress. Pleasure to deal with.
Very polite and friendly, and gave detailed explanations of all aspects of the cover. Reassuring to know that if you do have a problem there is someone you can contact.

GERARD HOULLIER knew before a ball was kicked in his side's Worthington Cup semi-final tie with Sheffield United that Liverpool would reward their loyal fans with another cup final appearance.
The Reds duly obliged last night, defeating Warnock's first division team 2-0 after extra time to book a place in the Worthington Cup final forsurthe second time in three years.
Houllier (pictured) revealed this morning he knew after last month's quarter-final victory over Aston Villa his side would reach the Millennium Stadium once again.
He explains: "When we travelled to Aston Villa and I saw 5,000 Liverpool fans waiting for 90 minutes in the cold to give us their backing and I told the players 'despite our run they are here because they believe in us'.
"When we won that night I knew we would reach the final. I knew we would reward those fans and last night's win was for them. It is a reward for them and a reward for the players.
"We have such a special relationship between the fans and the team and that has grown stronger during our difficult period."
Last night's victory came courtesy of goals from El-Hadji Diouf and Michael Owen, cancelling out the Blades' first leg 2-1 lead.
Houllier added: "The run to the final has not been easy because we have had to beat two Premiership teams and two first division teams. We have taken the competition seriously from the start."
The Reds will now face the winner of tonight's second leg semi-final at Ewood Park between Manchester United and Blackburn.
The dream final would be against United, but Houllier insists he does not care who his side faces.
"It will be a good game of football, whoever we meet. One team is Manchester and the other is coached by a former Liverpool manager.
"There will be interest but the game itself will be played on the pitch, not off it."
After the war of words which marred the semi-final battle with Sheffield United, the Liverpool boss is clearly eager to concentrate on foot-balling matters.
Meanwhile, Stephane Henchoz has denied he spat at Sheffield United boss Neil Warnock's after last night's semi-final victory.
The usually calm and composed Swiss international admits he had a heated exchange with the manager of the first division club as the players left the pitch, but he reacted furiously to the allegation from Warnock that he spat at him.
He said: "I did spit but it was on the ground and not at him. That's it. I definitely did not spit in his direction.
"I was happy that we had won the game and I told him that, but I insist that I did not spit at him."

Disney's first Blu-ray releases featuring Paul Walker in Eight Below on September 19, but we are looking forward to other summer movies getting day-and-date releases, why not one from the friendly budget HDTV calibrators at Pixar?
The end of the year and the launch of the Playstation 3 is far enough away however that we still hold out hope for plenty of Blu-ray content to become available, and maybe with codec and dual-layer issues straightened out as well. We're looking forward to some great 1080p CG this winter, and we don't mean from Killzone.

Match day began as a pleasant 80 degrees and partly sunny. The target improvements appear to help see hits in the black in shady or overcast conditions. 20 shooters occupied every firing point on the line and we were able to complete one relay (20 Matches) before rain moved in and cut the day short. Had the rain held off we had 21 shooters squadded to fire at least 27 matches. All AIMR shooters fired the Garand course A match format (5 sighters/ 10 slow prone/ 10 rapid prone/ 10 standing) and all National Match sooters fired the traditional President's match format on reduced targets (5 sighters/ 10 slow standing/ 10 rapid prone/ 10 slow prone). This is how the rest of the season will run. Sporting/ Unlimited class entries will also fire the President's match format on reduced targets.
In the AIMR category Tom Box bested both Kent Roach (1903A3) and Scott Kemler (Garand) by 2X's to win the AIMR category firing a 282-8X with a 1903A3 Springfield. In the National Match category, Jack Abrams was the winner firing a 289-7X with his NMAR with Matt Wieczorek hot on his heels firing a 287-8X. Matt says 8's are bullshit! After 3 Matches, Steve Jones is the only competitor in any category with 4 or more scores reported, and currently holds the top spot in the AIMR category for the league championship. Matt Wieczorek with 3 scores reporting in the National Match category is the current leader, with Jack Abrams currently sitting in 2nd place with one less score on the board. In the NM category itis a real horse race and anyone's game. The next Match is 9/17/16. Squadding at 11 am and ends at noon. I hope to see you all on the line.

Joining me now is Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter.
Senator, good to have you with us tonight.
SEN. ARLEN SPECTER (D), PENNSYLVANIA: Thank you, Ed.
SCHULTZ: And I asked our team--you bet. I asked our team if we could specifically get you on tonight because you"ve been in the Senate almost 30 years, and you have made a shift from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party.
If you could give our audience tonight some insight about how the Republicans might be thinking in caucus about the health care bill? Is it all about defeating President Obama and his agenda, or they really believe that denying Americans health care coverage is the right way to go?
Senator, if you can, give us some insight on that.
SPECTER: It"s strictly political, Ed. The statement came out of the Republicans Caucus that they want this to be President Obama"s Waterloo, that they want this to "break him." So that is where it is.
Not one Republican--only one Republican in the House of Representatives voted for the health care package out of more than 170, and only one Republican on the Senate Finance Committee voted it out of committee. It is strictly political, Ed.
SCHULTZ: That"s amazing to me, and I appreciate your honesty, because what I saw yesterday in Kansas City, Missouri--and I"m going to go to some other free health care clinics because I think this is the pulse of America. This is the middle class that we keep talking about on this show, and what we hear from the Obama administration about reinvigorating America and the economy, health care reform is a big part of it.
If I were to take a Republican senator to one of these clinics, they would say that it"s all about politics, we have to beat Barack Obama? Do you think they"d say that right in front of the very people who are being denied health care in this country?
SPECTER: Well, there are a couple of Republican senators who you might get to go there, but I don"t think you"d get very many to go, so they wouldn"t want to say something.
Look, Ed, I"ve been struggling with a health issue for a long time. For 10 years, I chaired the Appropriations Subcommittee, took the lead on National Institute of Health funding and community health centers. And there are many of us--I think there are 60 senators--and that"s what it takes to legislate--there are 60 senators who want to have a health care reform bill.
It"s not as good as I would like it, but I think we"re going to get there in a significant way. I"d like to have Republican help.
The American people would be a lot more confident about what we are doing if it was bipartisan. That"s a showing of balance. But we may be able to persuade a couple of Republicans to come forward, Ed, but not many.
SCHULTZ: Senator, this is a short interview that I had with just one of the people that I ran into yesterday. I want to play this for you.
LONA: We recently just had a baby, and so it"s been kind of rough with the income. So, you know, we"re just praying that the work that you guys are doing at MSNBC is enough to put pressure on the senators to get something for the people that work but can"t afford health insurance.
SCHULTZ: Senator, let me ask you, with all your experience in the Senate, give us a sense tonight. Does the Senate grasp the severity of what Americans are facing right now in this country when it comes to health care? Do you think the Senate gets it?
SPECTER: Most of us do. And that"s why we have been working on this plan. We"ve been working on it now, Ed, virtually nonstop for months. And the 60 of us on the Democratic side--and we"ve had input from a couple of Republicans--are trying very hard to structure it. So, in direct response to your question, the answer is yes.
We know millions are not covered. We know that people can"t afford it. We know that we need to give subsidies to people at the lower income levels. And we"re determined to take a big step forward. Not as big a step, I repeat, Ed, as some of us would like, but I think it is a significant step forward.
SCHULTZ: Senator Specter, good to have you with us tonight. Thanks so much. Appreciate your time.
SPECTER: Always a pleasure, Ed. Thank you.
SCHULTZ: You bet.

The 'Alibi Ike' primary?
George Will summarizes the choices for Republicans with an ode to Ring Lardner, and his famous, blame-everybody-else character "Alibi Ike:"
Who will carry the "Is This the Best We Can Do?" banner? So far, the serene front-runner, Mitt Romney, has nothing to fear from Huntsman's politics of high-mindedness. Bachmann's saliency with social conservatives, and the lurchings of Pawlenty's campaign, threatens Pawlenty's all-in wager on Iowa. And the potential fragility of Bachmann's campaign turns attention to the last piece of the Republican puzzle — Texas' Gov. Rick Perry, a high-octane social and economic conservative whom nobody could confuse with Alibi Ike.

Hay seeks more signings
By Tom Adams
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Dunfermline have taken two players on trial, and look set to lose Richie Byrne.Dunfermline boss Davie Hay has been busy in the transfer market, as The Pars have taken two players on trial and look set to release another.
Spanish midfielder Rafa Navarro has arrived at East End Park for a one-week trial, and may be the player to shore up the Pars left flank.
Hay has been casting his eye over the 33-year-old and is also keen to sign Slovakian international Miroslav Barcik (pictured) who has just departed following a similar trial spell.
The 26-year-old currently stars for MSK Zilina in the Slovakian league, and Hay could be looking to tie up a deal before the end of January.
"{Navarro's] been at Villarreal and Cordoba and is left-sided, and that is an area we are looking to strengthen," Hay told the Daily Record.
"He did okay in training but we'll reserve judgement until we have a further look.
"Barcik has gone back and we'll see if we can pursue that one.
"There's talking to be done about whether we can do it now or during the summer, but we'll see what happens."
Meanwhile Dunfermline look set to lose stopper Richie Byrne to fellow SPL side Aberdeen.
The Republic of Ireland Under-21 international may go to Pittodrie for a fee in the region of £50,000, and Hay has admitted a conclusion is close.
"We're not too far away on the Byrne deal and it looks like that will happen."
Aberdeen have also finalised a deal selling midfielder Steve Tosh to Third Division side Gretna.
The 31-year-old has signed a three-and-a-half year deal that includes the option to take up coaching opportunities.

The word happiness means different things to different people. What makes one person happy doesn't necessarily make another person happy. So what's the difference?
In Bryan Cohen's book, The Post College Guide to Happiness, the author relates how he found happiness in his life. He decided to share his story with others, by writing a guide to happiness for recent college graduates. Let me tell you, though, I've been out of college for many years and I still found the book enlightening. So no matter your age, you're likely to see something here that will refresh your happiness if you're already a happy person, or help you in your search for happiness. The book contains seven categories with workouts and exercises. You have the chapter "Brainy Bliss" for those I a rut. Sometimes I'm comfortable in my little rut; other times it gets boring and I need to make changes. The Post College Guide to Happiness gives you a workout to help you break out. Or how about the chapter "Money and Happiness." Of course, money brings happiness. Or does it? Do you have goals? If not, this book will help you set your goals. There's way too much information here to tell you everything. My favorite chapter is Chapter 3, "True Love and Contentment." It's all about how we react to a given situation. Thought I haven't had a chance to try them yet, the workouts look promising.
The author uses examples of real people, telling their stories and suggesting further reading. He even include a "controversial chapter" in trusting God as your supply. I agree with his thoughts on prayer. A prayer should begin with "thank you." At the beginning, your prayers should be positive. Then you need faith and to believe. That's all I'll say now. I don't want to give anything away about the book. But if you're searching for happiness and money hasn't given it to you, popularity hasn't brought what you need, and all the other things you thought you needed to be happy, give The Post College Guide to Happiness a read. You'll be happy you did.

To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him. - Buddha
happiness is all around and it is for everyone. it is not as elusive as some people think it to be. author Bryan Cohen believes that it is within one's reach and explains why and how through his treasure trove of data gathered from his personal experiences, his readings and research.
this book was an eye-opener for me. how i wished that it were already available when i was still in college and getting myself ready to face the world. i would probably have been better equipped but as the author asserts, it is not and never too late though and i agree with him.
i liked the way everything is structured. there are eight chapters that provide a wealth of information and tips. each ends with doable "happiness workouts." however, the first step to any undertaking and achieving something is usually the hardest. so i personally feel that a thorough understanding of the first chapter and doing the exercises until they become second nature is critical before moving on to the next one and so on.
i also liked the bibliography provided at the end of the book. among those listed, two are already in my personal library - Stephen Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning.
change does not happen overnight and it takes some time. success - whatever that means to you or me - can be achieved by a willingness and conscious effort on one's part.
as i look back at the past and think about my future, i have realized that achieving a general feeling of happiness is really worth it. after all, i only have one life to live and it is my desire to make the most out of it by being happy no matter what.

This is an extremely enlightening book. Even if you think you don't need it, it is worth a read. Simple philosophies with easy hands on methods. It is also not a long book. I liked the simple humor, easy to relate to examples and the recap chapter at the end that helps reinforce the concepts.

Wildcats shock Falcons for ECC softball title
Griswold — When Megan Weir came in to pitch in the second inning Saturday, there weren't exactly trumpets blaring.
Weir, who started in left field, had just allowed a ball to get past her, the Norwich Free Academy softball team now trailing by a run against top-seeded Fitch in the championship game of the Eastern Connecticut Conference softball tournament. Undefeated Fitch. Weir was summoned to the mound.
"I feel like sometimes I pitch better when there's pressure," said Weir, a junior. "I tried to stay lower; I had to keep (my emotions) down. Coach has been telling us we could beat them. … I just got lucky."
NFA, the sixth seed in the tournament, steamrolled its third straight opponent to win the ECC championship at Griswold High School, handing Fitch its first loss of the season, 8-4.
It did so behind the performance of a lifetime from Weir, named the tournament's Most Valuable Player. Weir was not only 4-for-5 with two triples, a double and four RBI, she no-hit Fitch for 4 2/3 innings before giving up a one-out single to Jackie Lewis in the seventh.
Weir struck out nine and walked three in 5 1/3 innings of relief to earn the victory, including striking out the side in order in the fourth and fifth innings, buzzing right through the heart of a powerful Fitch lineup.
NFA scored three runs in the third inning, getting back-to-back triples from Weir and Sophia Formiglio, and clung to a 5-3 lead until scoring three more in the seventh on a three-run triple by Weir.
The Wildcats (18-5) finished with 14 hits off formidable Fitch sophomore Caroline Taber, capping a tournament in which they also defeated 2013 finalists Waterford (14-4, first round) and East Lyme (6-0, semifinals) after losing to both during the regular season. It's NFA's first title and first championship game appearance since 2007.
NFA lost to Fitch during the regular season, 7-1 and 8-2, finishing third in the ECC Large Division.
"It was pretty intense," Weir said of the tournament win. "We've been playing pretty well the past week."
"I'm elated," NFA coach Bryan Burdick said. "I told the girls, 'I can't think of anything to say other than, I'm truly proud of you.' … I don't think it's set in yet. Two years ago we were 8-12. Last year we were 10-9 in the regular season. We've been out of tournaments after a single game. When Fitch went up 3-2, they didn't crumble. They continued to play the way they've been playing."
NFA led 2-0, getting a pair of unearned runs off Taber, one in the first on an RBI single by Weir and one in the second on a dropped fly ball.
Fitch (22-1) got three in the second on a bases-loaded single to left by Lewis (3-for-4) that dribbled by Weir, but NFA unloaded four hits in the third, as well as a suicide squeeze bunt by Emily Arico, to retake the lead.
"I think, from my perspective, we didn't come to play today at all," Fitch coach Arielle Cooper said. "The errors we made early set the tone; that sets the tone for most games. They were holding on to this (being undefeated) a little too much. The girls were definitely second-guessing themselves in the box. And NFA came out swinging."
Cooper, whose team is the top seed in the Class L state tournament and will begin play in the second round Tuesday, reminded reporters that when she was a senior at Fitch in 2009, the Falcons lost the ECC tournament crown to Waterford and went on to win a state championship over Masuk, the state's No. 1-ranked team.
"Five years ago, I was them," Cooper said. "… After a season like this, it took us a while to lose, they were up at the top. Everybody needs a reality check sometimes. If we can lose one game all season, I'll take it."
Brianne Brennan and Shaina Beatrice each added a pair of hits for NFA, which is the No. 10 seed in the Class LL state tournament and will play No. 23 Norwalk at home Monday.
Burdick joked that until this season Weir had spoken "three words to me," but has been the one to urge her teammates to play the same regardless of the opponent, giving the Wildcats a measure of consistency as they've run off eight straight victories.
"They were playing with house money," Burdick said of meeting Fitch. "They were the six seed playing against the 1 seed. Those girls went out there and gave it their all."

Discussion in 'Landscape Architecture and Design' started by BufalinoLand, Jan 2, 2006.
Im in need of some good business software has anyone used pro landscape and how much is it.
Isn't pro landscape landscape design software??
Is that the one they advertise in Turf magazine ?
Pro Landscape is design, 3D imaging and bidding software. I would not consider that business software, unless your business is landscape design.
What do you wish the business software to do?
Do you guys know of any other GOOD landscape design software that is a little bit cheaper than PRO Landscape which is about 1500 - 2000 if im correct. That's a little pricy.
Pro Landscape is $1300 US, and is one of the best for the money. You can buy homeowner software that is much cheaper and is much less of a program. Pro Landscape is CAD based which explains the price and difficulty in using it. If you do not do a great deal of design work, or have delusions it will make designing easier, you'd be better off finding a local designer and working with them. Many a software program sits on a shelf because of the difficulty in mastering them, and that's a lot of money to be sitting around.

Baader Double Polarising Filter
This product is no longer available or has been replaced by a newer model.
Astronomical polarising filters such as this are predominantly useful in lunar observation. Lunar images can appear overly luminous, with details lost in the glare. A polarising filter will cut down the glare and sharpen contrast, allowing you to pick out more details on the lunar surface. This filter features two polarising layers; one fixed and one which can be rotated. This enables you to ... More
Please note: For solar observation with a Herschel prism, you do not need a double polarizing filter. The reflected image of the sun from the Herschel prism is already partially polarised. If necessary please order the simple polarising filter for further light attenuation. When used with an Astro Solar film, however, you need a double pole filter to continuously further mitigate the unpolarised sunlight.Back to top

I think you need to be a wee bit more specific...
But here goes...
sounds like you're trying to copy data to another server from your server, and the other server is set up as windows only security...AND your system account is not on the domain...

I'm not sure if it's the apps or my phone that has the issue. The issue happens usually when I'm scrolling through my songs list and my music app gets stuck and my phone reboots. There are also times when my phone will just reboot while listening to a song or if I use the phone. I was thinking maybe I was doing too many things at once and my phone freaks out.

Vinyl shopping with Alex Cameron – Bands Buy Records episode 06
What happens when you give an Australian sleaze-pop megastar and his saxophone playing business partner a modest amount of cash
If you ask Angel Olsen, Thee Oh Sees or Kevin Morby who their favourite new artist has been in 2016, I think they'd all probably say Alex Cameron.
He's the Australian sleaze-pop icon who, when performing, snacks around on stage like a cross between Bruce Springsteen and Elvis. A short while ago, in the middle of his extensive world tour, he stopped off in London.
When playing live he performs with his "business partner" Roy Molloy, a saxophone-playing former tram conductor from Sydney. We took the pair to Flashback Records, Shoreditch, gave them £25 spend on a minimum of three pieces of vinyl for the latest episode of Bands Buy Records.
They were excellent value.

A couple of baby cards using snippets
I have made a girl and a boy card, both with snippets for Di's crafty snippet challenge. Sorry about the awful photo on the second. The digi images came from Squigglefly and were coloured with promarkers. Thanks for looking!

Both gorgeous baby cards Sally! Super use of snippets and what cute expressions on the babies faces :) Love them! Di xxReplyDelete
Two gorgeous cards.xxxReplyDelete
Morning SallyReplyDelete
Tis I, direct from the beachside of the Fens.
Is it just me or is it rather sad that part of the excitement of giving birth is taken away by knowing the sex of the baby long before it arrives ?
I can see the practicality for planning, but don't think I would have wanted to know even if it was an option in the dark ages when most of my bunch came along.
Both cards are very pretty though.
Take care where you sit at school won't you.

Moscow, Sept. 26 (AFP): The worlds first female space tourist and first space blogger, American national Anousheh Ansari, told the world yesterday of the difficulties of keeping tidy in zero gravity.
Well my friends, I must admit keeping good hygiene in space is not easy! the Iranian-born woman wrote, saying she would reveal what everyone wants to know but is too modest to ask.
The 2,000 or so readers comments that have appeared on Ansaris website, spaceblog.Xprize.org, since she took off from the Russian Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on September 18 have largely been expressions of admiration and encouragement.
Water does not flow here, it floats which makes it a challenging act to clean yourself, Ansari said, explaining that astronauts bathe with wet and dry towels and swallow after brushing their teeth, which they refer to as the fresh mint effect.
Ansari said she had been given the personal hygiene kit of Daisuke Enomoto, a would-be space tourist from Japan who was pulled from the flight because of health problems, leaving her with a razor and lots of shaving cream, but no makeup.
Hair-washing in space brings its own difficulties.
You basically take a water bag and slowly make a huge water bubble over your head and then very, very gently, using a dry shampoo, you wash your hair, Ansari said. At the slightest sudden movement, little water bubbles start floating everywhere.
Ansari promised to share videos of the process upon her return to earth.
Since all water in the International Space Station (ISS) is recycled, wet objects are left to air dry so the stations water conduction unit can collect and purify the water including that from sweaty workout clothes.
One of the cosmonauts told me: We are all very close to each other, like brothers and sisters, it is very unique because we drink each others sweat. Now I know well what he means, Ansari said.
More poetic was Ansaris description of seeing Earth shortly after the Russian Soyuz TMA-9 spacecraft blasted off to bring her to the ISS.
Tears started rolling down my face. I could not catch my breath... Even thinking about it now still brings tears to my eyes. Here it was, this beautiful planet turning graciously about itself, under the warm rays of the sun... So peaceful... So full of life... No signs of war, no signs of borders, no signs of trouble, just pure beauty.
Most of the comments on the blog have come from readers in the US and Iran, but numerous other countries have been represented, and comments have been written in English, Farsi, Spanish, Swedish and French.
The blog by the worlds fourth-ever space tourist started well before Ansaris takeoff.

California has started the season very strong and had a good win in their last game against a good St. Mary's team. Cal has found success on the defensive end, which has really helped them this season. Cal has the advantage in rebounding against Coppin State. Coppin State has struggled this season and with them playing last night, I think Cal will be too much for them in this game.

The colder weather means it's time for holiday parties! Getting together with your friends for some delicious appetizers lots of great conversation and holiday cheer is one of my favourite parts of the season. I love the opportunity to get dressed up and put together a holiday appetizer that is easy and delicious! This recipe for 15 Minute Mexican Chicken Appetizers takes very little time and can be made ahead with just some assembly the night of the party. In my mind that is a win-win – delicious, easy, can be made ahead and guests big and little will love it!
This appetizer can be made with any leftover cooked chicken but I used a grocery store rotisserie chicken removing the cooking step all together.
15 Minute Mexican Chicken Appetizers
1 cup shredded cooked chicken
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp ground coriander
*1/4 cup salsa (I used medium to kick up the heat a little)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro finely chopped (reserve some for garnish)
juice of 1 lime
tortilla chips (I used red organic chips for a festive look)
*increase to 1/2 cup for a mix with more sauce
In a small bowl combine cumin, coriander, salsa, lime juice and cilantro. Mix to combine. Add chicken and toss until evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for minimum 1 hour up to 1 day. When ready to serve spoon chicken mixture on top of tortilla chip and place on platter. Garnish with chopped cilantro.

We work with children 5 to 13 years of age who, because of their behaviors, are a danger to themselves or others either at home or in the community. Residential treatment is our most intensive program.
Families are very involved in the treatment process and must demonstrate that less intensive interventions have not been successful. Our families also participate in therapy sessions with their children. While children in residential treatment are closely supervised 24 hours a day, we are not a locked facility.
Generally children in the program have exhibited some type of violent or self-destructive behavior.
Our goal is to stabilize the child's behavior so that he or she is no longer a danger to self or others and may be moved to a less restrictive setting.
Children served through the Residential Program generally have chronic and severe emotional, social and/or behavioral problems, which result from a primary psychiatric diagnosis; have a history of not responding to traditional outpatient treatment or short-term acute hospitalization programs; and, have a history of treatment resistance, failed foster care placements and/or multiple inpatient stays.

mavie dhuy (Master in cultural management)
I'm very happy with this school. Very good curriculum n teachers are very approachable. My daughter enjoys doing activities and developed good habits n skills.
Munikantha (MBA)
I would agree with all the good things that are being said about OUR KIDZ. My son was terrified when he first went to a proper big school and we saw him transform from an ever smiling kid to a very nervous child. We pulled him out and put him in OUR KIDZ and it's been a great journey. He loves the teachers and jumps up from bed each day ready to go there. He is happy because it is within the society and we also feel at peace. Overall a good place to send small children.
Akshay Iyer (Manager in an IT firm)
True, they take care at OUR KIDZ. My younger son was never keen to go to any school. Now he happily looks forward to go to school every day. Also Nidhi and Dipika, Meena. All take care of the kids. The best part is that because it is inside the community it is very convenient... Especially for play group and Nursery.
Mr.JAIKANT SHUKLA SHILPI Shukla (Service/Oracle)
Hi, my son and Daughter (twins :)) goes to 'OUR KIDZ' located in the community. I've to accept that my son is little naughty, but the way the teachers (Deepika initially and now Nidhi) handled him there really impressed me and also have seen an overall improvement in both my kids growth. It is very convenient for us as it is located right inside the community and is saving a lot of time for me! Would highly recommend and I'd suggest to check at 'OUR KIDZ' before taking the big decision!

"Rusty, the technician, called within five minutes of my call to Hutchins. He was at my house 10 minutes later, and the job was done within one hour of my original call! Amazingly fast! Rusty was friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient—a great combination. Frankly it's the fastest service I've ever experienced at home. Fantastic!"
– Happy Austin Customer
"I couldn't be happier with the service we received from Hutchins Garage Doors. I called for an appointment and spoke with a professional, pleasant gentleman who scheduled us for the very next day. In addition to giving me an estimate (which was extremely accurate), he also suggested that we replace the singular spring with two springs so if the spring lets go again someday, we'd at least be able to open the door manually until we were able to have it repaired. He explained the cost difference was minimal ($40) so we went with his suggestion."
– Happy Austin Customer
"Derek arrived the next morning. He was knowledgeable, professional and very good at his job. He was finished in under an hour."
– Happy Austin Customer
"Excellent! I asked for an estimate and the company responded THAT DAY with an estimator coming to my house. He stressed that service is their Number One priority and that proved to be true. The next day, the man installed the door and did an excellent job. Both the estimator and the installer were very knowledgeable and professional."
– Happy Austin Customer
"My garage door spring broke, rendering the door inoperative. Les showed up within two hours of my call, and immediately determined that, based on the weight and size of the doors and spring, a custom spring would have to be fabricated. The cables were also worn. He promised to be back after 1 p.m., as I requested. He was prompt, called ahead and upon his return he completed the replacement and repairs in no time at all. Les was a pleasure to do business with—very experienced, articulate and dependable."
– Happy Austin Customer
"My service from Hutchins was excellent. My automatic garage door remote controls were not working. Jeff did an assessment of my 15-year-old system and I decided to purchase a new one. Jeff installed it the following day, on time and on price—consistent with the written
estimate he had provided. Jeff was highly professionally; he trained me on the new system and provided me with the related manuals and paper work. I recommend this company and Jeff for anyone looking for a new or repair of an overhead door system."

Directors: Jason Friedberg, Aaron Seltzer
Cast: Jenn Proske, Matt Latner, Diedrich Bader, Chris Riggi, Ken Jeong
Synopsis: As the juvenile title suggests, this film is a spoof of the first two Twilight films. Very much in the spirit of any Wayans brothers parody (minus actual Wayans brothers), this film is a childish mix of direct film satire and pop culture references.
I would consider myself a very tolerant viewer of film. Most films that many consider terrible, I am able to identify some redeeming feature in the film and enjoy it for what it is. Only rarely have I switched off a film prior to the end credits. One of those times I did switch off a film mid-way through though however, I was watching Twilight. I have subsequently never seen another film in the saga, and leave the pain of reviewing these films to other Revenge of the Film Nerds authors. Vampires Suck therefore is a better film in my opinion than Twilight, as I was able to sit through it. I am not saying it is a good film, mind you, because it certainly is not.
From the little I do know about the Twilight saga, from what I have been informed by Twi-hards and sceptics alike, the saga is certainly ripe for satire. Unfortunately for many American spoofs, they too often go for parody rather than true hard-hitting satire. There is material here that could really create amusing material without the need to go into the realm of farce. One point that many have cited as disturbing about Stephanie Meyers source material is Edward's habit of watching Bella sleep. Rather than lampoon how unsettling that scenario is, the film opts to show "Becca" in a series of less than flattering sleeping positions. It is ridiculous, but it is not funny.
Perhaps the film makers did not have enough material from the two films it was lampooning to create a full feature, which may explain it throwing other pop culture references (Jersey Shore for one) into the mix. Many opportunities were lost to satirise the current vampire genre as a whole. There were side references to Buffy and Vampire Diaries, but they are blink-and-you-will-miss-it gags. To not even consider Blade, Underworld, Anne Rice or even Dracula seems absurd to me. To integrate the most absurd elements of all of these characters and subvert them could have made for a much better, more intelligent film. In the film on offer, rather, we get S & M wear and fart gags.
It seems a greater pity given elements of Proske's performance as Becca. She perfectly captures many of Kristen Stewart's Bella mannerisms that I was familiar with through the little of Twilight I did see and what I have seen in trailers. She emphasises her facial twitches just enough to highlight them without looking like she was having a poor drug reaction, which was certainly a possible risk in a film like this. None of the rest of the cast stands out, however, and a man od Diedrich Bader's comic skill is wasted in this film. Worst of all is Latner as "Edward Sullen" (screamingly obvious pun!), who lets his coiffed hair do most of the acting for him.
If you are a Twi-hard, you will find this film offensive. If you have no familiarity with Twilight, you will find it pointless. If you have been dragged along to these films against your will, you may find moments of amusement, but many of the gags will raise little more than a smirk on your face.
