Sri Sri Vidya Mandir is the first English medium school in Asia's largest slum. Today the school has six rooms and classes up to the 6th grade. Despite numerous challenges, such as the children's difficult backgrounds, unavailability of land and parental indifference towards education, the school has successfully reached out to more than 220 children, imparting formal and holistic education.
Most students have a background of being mentally or physically abused, being involved in gambling or drugs and in extreme cases, the use of weapons. In these circumstances, the school not only delivers formal education but also strengthens the basic foundation of the children's mental and physical health. The school organizes extra coaching classes and annual medical camps which include a full health check.
Teachers and dedicated volunteers conduct regular counselling sessions together with yoga and meditation sessions to help children and empower them to overcome day to day challenges.
One of the major challenges faced by the school was the indifferent attitude of parents towards education and to instill enough discipline and commitment in both parents and children for them to continue attending the school. To achieve this, the school conducted special counselling sessions for parents and regular parent–teacher meetings. Parents are also encouraged to get involved with the school activities like medical camps and the annual function. This gives them an opportunity to be a part of child's growth.
"Every day is a challenge and a miracle. I wonder how all the needs of school are met. People walk in and voluntarily contribute for whatever the school needs. We want to give the best to our students. We not only want them to be literates but also complete human beings. We are planning to have a separate vocational training school and a library. They love to come to school now and sometimes we have to force them to go back home!" shares Shubangi Karvir, the principal of the school.
The presence of the school and its activities plays a very important role in strengthening the community as a whole. In the area of the school, Art of Living volunteers also organise de–addiction camps, awareness campaigns, stress elimination workshops and Youth Leadership and Training Programs to bring peace and harmony in the community.
For example, residents started a project to convert approximately 4000 sq.ft.of land which had been used as a dumping ground into a garden. This is now one of the rare spots of greenery in Dharavi.

If you buy sweet corn from a man named Sweet, you figure "The Taste Will Tell — It's Sweet."
"It's all a thing of perception," says Gary Sweet, owner and operator of "Sweet's Gourmet Sweet Corn."
The Ohio producer has been changing consumer perceptions about sweet corn since a drought in 1989 changed his thinking about marketing and the size of his operation.
A veteran producer, Sweet grows 150 acres of sweet corn on the southside of Cleveland, Ohio. Prior to the late 1980s, he farmed 2,500 acres. "Today, there's no comparision between the income we get off of growing 150 acres of sweet corn and the 2,500 acres we used to farm," Sweet told growers at the 18th annual Southeast Fruit and Vegetable Expo held recently in Greenville, N.C.
He's taken a different approach to "training his customers to come to him."
That first year, Sweet built carts and set up shop across the street from major supermarkets. His sales outpaced sweet corn purchases at supermarkets. Over the next three years, he expanded to 40, Amish-built carts. The supermarkets haven't seemed to mind the competition.
Today, he's selling sweet corn at five of the hottest supermarket chains in the area and continues to market the crop in carts at the up-scale Shell convenience stores. In the supermarket, the produce manager is the key to the store. "About 1 percent to 5 percent of the market is what we're after," Sweet says.
"We train the customers to come to us," Sweet says. "It's a totally different concept. It's not the supermarket's customers that are coming to the supermarket to buy our sweet corn; it's our sweet corn customers who are coming to the supermarket." The supermarket benefits because customers buy more than sweet corn.
"At the carts, we tell customers to 'be there by noon' and the sales double," Sweet says.
His strategy is simple: Offer customers a fresh, quality product backed up with a guarantee.
"I'm trying to get people to recognize a name," Sweet says, holding up a quarter-dozen package emblazoned with the "Sweet's Gourmet Sweet Corn: The Taste Will Tell" emblem. "It's all a thing of perception. Customers want taste. With freshness, we have control of the point of sale everyday." He says his philosophy has brought him back to where agriculture was 40 or 50 years ago.
"For so many years, sweet corn, tomatoes — you name it — have all been generic," Sweet says. "We're giving the customer a choice."
He encouraged the Southeastern producers attending the conference to "put your name on your product. When you put your name on the product, it has to be good all the time."
His wife rates the sweet corn on how well it eats, Sweet says — how clean it comes off the cob, whether any kernels get stuck in your teeth and the tenderness of the corn."
His corn carries a 100 percent guarantee. "We average one call a week where people bring it back," Sweet says. "The first question I usually ask is, "How did you cook it?' They might say, 'We cooked it for 15 or 20 minutes and it was tough,' he laughs.
"We have to educate the customers about how to cook sweet corn properly," Sweet says.
The Ohio producer says it's important to figure out what your customer base is and then don't over-produce. In the field, Sweet uses conservation-tillage. The cost of production is about $1,000 per acre while production under row covers and plastic edges up to $1,500 per acre.
Sweet has discovered that oftentimes customers prefer a quarter dozen or a half dozen ears of sweet corn to a full dozen. The half-dozen customized packages of sweet corn are his No. 1 seller; the quarter-dozen bags are No. 2. The packages all have draw strings and come with "cooking instructions." In each package, he'll put in an extra ear or two of sweet corn.
As for pricing, Sweet tends to agree with the thoughts of North Carolina State University Horticulturist Doug Sanders who says sweet corn should be selling for $7.40 a dozen.
Sweet offers his at a suggested retail price of $6.75 per dozen, noting that it's $7.99 in the grocery store.
In dealing with the supermarket, he says the produce manager is the key contact.
The Fourth of July and Labor Day Weekend are big times for sales. He also carries the carts to festivals and offers the sweet corn roasted for $2 an ear. "That's $24 a dozen. Based on that, we're practically giving it away" to customers the rest of the year.
Reflecting back on the changes in the way he farms and markets, Sweet says it involves taking a different approach and a willingness to change. "It means having a willingness to change, being proud of your product and giving the customer a choice," Sweet says.
"It will take some extra effort," he says.

MADRID (AP) — Spain's meteorological agency has placed the southern region bordering the Mediterranean on alert due to torrential rain that has submerged the downtown area of the region's capital city.
Malaga, on the Costa del Sol, one of Europe's most popular beachside tourist destinations, has endured almost five inches 5 inches (13 centimeters) of rain from midnight to midday Saturday, the agency said.
Television footage showed torrents of water plunging rapidly downhill through streets and the city's main shopping quarter chest-deep in muddy water with hours more heavy rain still expected to fall.
The rain caused large traffic jams as tunnels and boulevards flooded. Local media reports said the coast had also been hit by a mini-tornado.

Celebrating 40 years of Lowriding excellence is no easy task. That achievement certainly speaks volumes about the resilience, dedication, and passion that Techniques car club brings to the Lowrider table. It's safe to say this four-decade mark could not have been met without the club's willingness to grow and adapt by passing the torch to younger members who maintain the club's initial traditions and foundation. Founding members of the original jacket club from Schurr High School in Montebello, California in 1972 laid the groundwork for this legendary club and in 2012, Techniques car club is still here – celebrating the well-earned milestone of 40 years of service to the Lowrider Community. I was humbly honored in receiving an invitation from Arizona Chapter President Ruben Salazar to their commemorative anniversary on what will forever be known as a very special night in Lowrider History. It was only appropriate that the Radisson Hotel Ballroom in Whittier, California serve as the site that Peter Cruz and company host a night of tribute and recognition for those who followed their initial dream.
Techniques now have chapters in Arizona, Dallas/Fort Worth Texas, Inland Empire, San Fernando Valley, Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and even Japan! They also hold another title in formalizing one of the oldest Bike Club Chapters in Lowrider History. It goes without saying that had it not been for the wise direction of the Los Angeles Chapter of "The Block" Techniques on who would be deemed worthy of flying their plaque, TFFT would have no meaning today. That acronym stands for the club's motto, "Techniques forever, forever Techniques!" The club also formally recognizes its members who protect the freedom of our country; there are Techniques shirts flying in the Middle East and throughout the free world in different branches of our U.S. Military.
The Saturday night celebration began with a welcoming dinner and dance for the invited guests, which included the who's who of Lowriding in LA. Other car clubs attending were The Dukes, Imperials, Latin Lords, Stylistics, Majestic's, Uniques, and many independents that received and gave respect to the Techniques Plaque throughout their journey. Unfortunately, things weren't always so positive; as Peter Cruz so eloquently stated in his very impressive and heartfelt speech. Just like all things, The Lowrider Car clubs went through growing and maturing pains over the years and the car club wars of the '70s and early '80s were no picnic. There was loss of life as well as loss of respect, along with a car or two. Things finally got better when these young car clubs transitioned from having passenger "shotgun riders" carrying actual shotguns, to having passengers in the shotgun seat carrying kids. This focus on wives and family helped us change our priorities as we grew from young, macho Latinos into responsible people with a shared mission of loving our family and friends. Now, in 2012, honorable car clubs share the streets and the show floor with respect for one another. Thankfully, the battles have changed from disrespect and pain, to paint, chrome undercarriages, and interiors. We still compete to see who has the better-built art on wheels, but we do this for our culture and our familia. Techniques car club is the greatest example of making this perspective a priority so their families can flourish.
With forty years of thanking the members that made this club a tradition and culture, Distinctive Special Recognition Plaques were presented to key individuals and officers who made this long journey successful. Honorees included first President and co-founder, Al Quintano, co-founder and 2nd President Roland Ortiz, Sergio Alvarado, Ruben Quinones, and current president Raymond "Ray" Carrillo. Others who took home plaques included Benny Miranda, Peter Robles, Richie Miranda, Daniel Miranda, Oscar Loya, Peter Cruz, and member of the year, Marcelo Sanchez.
The night was not complete without properly recognizing the charity groups that Techniques teamed up with for their 2nd Annual LA Mission Run event, "Keeping LA Warm," and "The Ramona Gardens Toy Run." These groups included very close friends of Techniques, Martin and Sonia Resendez, and www.rollingdeep4charities.com. Techniques also wanted to give a special thanks to all the Chapters who traveled from near and far, including those who came all the way from Japan for this memorable evening!
With hundreds of car clubs now cruising the streets in our cities and neighborhoods, new and young riders for that perfect name for their club still ask me. Techniques also had that same discussion 40 years ago. They consulted Webster's dictionary, which, at the time, defined techniques as "show you how." For forty years, Techniques C.C. has done just that; they have shown us how to be true Lowriders and how to keep a positive tradition going in the process. It's safe to say that they will probably be around for forty more years, mentoring generations of young riders along the way. Techniques forever, forever Techniques!

Looking for a Recipe for 'Chess' Pie
My father-in-law is coming to visit around new year's, and I would like to make his favorite pie. He calls it chess pie. I believe it is basically just made out of the 'goo' that surrounds a pecan pie(basically corn syrup, butter and eggs), but I'm not sure. Has anyone else heard of this pie? Does anyone have a recipe for same? If not, I think I'll stumble around and try making a pie just from the pecan pie recipe I have. Thanks.

SOFIA, Bulgaria – Thousands of young men are plunging into icy rivers and lakes across Bulgaria to retrieve crucifixes cast by priests in an old ritual marking the feast of Epiphany.
By tradition, a wooden cross is cast into the water and it is believed that the person who retrieves it will be freed from evil spirits.
In the central city of Kalofer, 350 men in traditional dress waded into the icy Tundzha River with national flags. Led by the town's mayor and encouraged by a folk orchestra and homemade plum brandy, they dance and stomp the rocky riverbed.

Quite a "super" year
Nineteen ninety seven was quite a big time for me - I was in Year 12, and quietly stressing out about the impending exams that would only determine my immediate to long term future.
It will also be remembered as the year that Australia had two rugby league competitions - the original, traditionally based Australian Rugby League (ARL), and the new, quite bold Superleague.
Now, I'm not going to get into a discussion about which one was the best competition - I was a supporter of both, and I thought that both of them had their good and bad points.
However, I must admit that I more or less watched Superleague through default, only because my team, the Panthers, were in that competition.
Decked out in a strip that could be best described as "zebra roadkill", the team from the foot of the Blue Mountains actually enjoyed a relatively successful season. After quite a few lean years following the premiership glory of '91, characterised by internal dramas and the constant failure to qualify for the finals, the 1997 version of the Penrith Panthers made the 5 team finals series.
It was a year where a teenage sensation was thrust into the limelight, a goalkicking centre finally realised his true potential, and there was the return of the "prodigal son" after a couple of years across the Tasman.
Craig Gower, Ryan Girdler and Greg Alexander all had key roles in the on field success of the Panthers.
Even though he had made his first grade debut the year before, Gower burst on to the scene in 1997. Playing in the hooker role, his deft skills were soon rewarded with representative honours. At the raw age of 18, he was selected as the Australian halfback during the end of season Great Britain tour.
Girdler had a stellar year. He was always considered as a creative and ball-running centre who could kick goals. In 1997, he was putting in those performances on a regular basis, and was also nailing the conversions from all over the place. Just like Gower, he was named in the NSW and Australian squads.
After 2 years playing for the Auckland Warriors, "Brandy" Alexander made a return home, and was promptly regained the halfback and captain roles. His early season form turned the clock back a number of years, and was a surprise selection for NSW in the opening match of the Tri-series, before injuring his foot. He would play precious little for the rest of the year - not that it put that much of a dent into the Panthers charge.
It was a season of quite some memorable performances. The one that sticks out the most was the 27-26 win against the Broncos at Penrith in a Monday night game, with a Gower field goal the only difference in a very entertaining match.
Also, Peter Jorgenson's post try celebrations (the aeroplane) were an amusing sidelight.
But it was also quite a controversial year as well, and it was all to do with what ended up being quite a farcical World Club Challenge tournament. The Panthers won all 6 games against their English opposition (Bradford, Warrington and St. Helens on a home and away basis), yet did not qualify for the finals - even though English teams that had won less games managed to do so.
The Panthers ended up finishing 5th at the end of 22 rounds, and were drawn to play the Bulldogs in the first week at Belmore. Penrith snuck away with a one point win, but the run ended down in Canberra the following week, with quite a heavy defeat.
All in all, it was a relatively successful year. The re-unification the following year (the National Rugby League in 1998) promised quite a lot, but it was back to what us fans had become accustomed to - relative mediocrity. 1996 in itself was quite an ordinary year too, so 1997 definitely stands out like a bright beacon. It was great while it lasted though.
It was a bright spot in a decade that was heavily punctuated at the start by premiership glory, but pretty much sweet little to really cheer about for the rest of it.
However, it did establish two genuine superstars who would both, in time, make their mark.
And also, as a unit, it showed what the Panthers were truly capable of when they played to their potential.

White remains in fact the lightest color but does not necessarily make the area appear lighter. On the contrary, if the home windows are fairly tiny, white wall surfaces can resemble a dowdy grey. The wall surfaces can be blazing if as well much light is coming into the area.
A great color to use for a little area is a fragile pink. It is just a little darker than white, nonetheless it adds a relaxing, soft quality to a bedroom. A delicate pink is soothing. It lowers hostile feelings and also conveys the impression of being looked after, hence boosting a feeling of self-esteem. As the primary color for a color scheme for the tiny bedroom, you can combine it effectively with numerous neutral tones.
Such hues are excellent for creating a relaxing and also stylish ambience in bedrooms. A delicate grayed pink is also excellent as an accent color to uplift a heavy quality that can be discovered in areas that consist of as well much grey, dark or brown blue.
Integrated with creme, a grayed pink will open the area in a little, slim bedroom and also provide it a light, aerial appeal. The area will now not just appear brighter, which you may wish to attain with white, but also cozy, stylish and also exceptionally relaxing. Qualities that can not be attained with white. Accents of black in lights or tiny pieces of furniture will add a masculine quality.
With the included light representation, mirrors assistance to make a little bedroom appearance and also really feel larger.

Sure, we all have our own personal style, but there are a few closet classics with universal and time-tested appeal. Here are 10 pieces made famous by stylish screen stars of the past half-century, and how to update and incorporate them into your own warm-weather wardrobe.
Closet Classics
Trends come and go each season, but these 10 summer staples have stuck around for years–even decades–without losing their allure. Made famous by style stars from Jackie O to Jean Seberg, the iconic items have true time-tested appeal. Whether you dress them up or down, they'll keep you looking cool no matter how high the temperature gets this season. The best part: You can keep them in your warm-weather wardrobe for years to come.
A Striped Breton Top
French actress Jean Seberg made this top a classic in the 1960's Jean-Luc Godard film, "Breathless." But it was the one and only Coco Chanel who originally pilfered this look from the fishermen of the French Riviera back in the 1920's. Typically designed with a wide bateau neckline in navy and white stripes and three-quarter length sleeves, this simple sailor tee has come back this season in many forms–from tank tops to long, fitted jersey dresses. Nearly a century after Chanel made it chic, it seems to be back on every designer's It-List for summer.
How to Wear It: Classic and comfortable, the Breton is the perfect summertime top. Worn with a longer sleeve, it can ward off the chill of an evening breeze. The tapered waistline works well with shorts, jeans or a skirt to create a flattering silhouette.
A Trench
Women have been playing around with masculine, oversized proportions on their smaller, curvier frames forever. Just look at Diane Keaton in "Annie Hall." But it was the ever elegant Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" who wore a trench as nonchalantly as a bathrobe. Now, that is the essence of chic. The trench is conservative, tailored and rigorously military to its core but it's also highly versatile and sexy when worn the right way, like Hepburn did over an extravagant evening gown, wrapped and firmly tied around the waist, or tossed over the shoulders like a cape. A trench can not only protect and serve, it can instantly add an element of class and style authority.
How to Wear It: A lightweight summer trench in the classic khaki shade is a great way to stave off those summer showers. It also functions as the ideal evening coat. Toss it on over a pair of skinny jeans or a summer dress. This is a piece that takes you from day to night, and back.
White Jeans
Fitted white jeans are a staple in many women's closets, but there is something about the way Kate Moss wears them that makes them look fresh and modern. Not too tight and worn a little short with a chunky belt at the hips, they take on a cool, rock n' roll vibe.
How to Wear It: The white jean is one of the most versatile summer items to own year after year. Great for daytime with a t-shirt or printed hippie blouse yet chic enough to go out at night with a sexy beaded top.
A Ballet Flat
Audrey Hepburn's chic silhouette in a pair of fitted black pedal-pushers and prim ballet flats in the 50's film "Funny Face" has inspired women for decades to give up their uncomfortable stilettos and platforms in favor of streamlined comfort and a neat, elegant look.
How to Wear It: Ballet flats in all their iterations, bejeweled, leopard, studded or polka-dotted, not only make traveling comfortable and easy (just squish them together and go) they are also the perfect companion for jeans, shorts, minis and soft dresses.
A Black Swimsuit
Every woman needs a black swimsuit in her wardrobe. The beachy equivalent to the LBD (little black dress), a black suit is slimming and keeps you looking sleek in sand and surf. Stylish stars from Bridget Bardot in the 1950s to Demi Moore a half-century later (famously in "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle") have turned up in the black bikini.
How to Wear It: Whether you go for a one-piece or a bikini, choose a style that helps you exude confidence. A high-waisted bikini offers more coverage and a classic look, or pair it with a flirty cover-up. Another benefit of black: You can wear it with almost any color.
A White Button-Up Shirt
There is almost nothing more utilitarian and basic than a crisp, white shirt, yet it can still freshen up any look. Katherine Hepburn immortalized the white button down shirt as one of her signature style pieces. Worn simply or set off with loads of gold jewelry, the white shirt is one of the most versatile pieces you'll own — and you can take it through almost every season.
How to Wear It: A white shirt has the uncanny ability to look good pressed and perfected, or wrinkled and lived-in, so it's the ideal piece to take on any trip or weekend getaway. Tucked into jeans or thrown on over a tank and sleek black leggings, the great white shirt is an easy style staple.
A Boho Chic Dress
From the hippie heyday of the 70's to the hipsters of today, the long boho-chic dress carries on in high style. The Olsen Twins revived hippie-dom with their long, 'ray of light' wavy locks, chiffon shirts and floor-sweeping skirts. Typically made with airy, lightweight fabrics, they move easily around your body and keep you cool on the hottest days.
How to Wear It: Keep the bohemian dress casual with flip flops or basic sandals and it can work easily for the beach and for brunch in the summer. Dress it up with jeweled flats or beaded jewelry and it can take you right into dinner. This versatile piece can also be tossed over a swimsuit for a glam cover-up.
A Straw Carry-All
Jane Birkin may have an Hermes bag named after her, but one of her more iconic style signatures was her straw summer basket tote. Colorful and casual, it's perfect for summer strolling, and has a distinctly vintage look to it. Today's version of straw baskets have a flatter, more trapezoid shape and are cheekily adorned with mirrors, pom-poms and woven flowers for added appeal.
How to Wear It: The straw basket is a great day bag, but also doubles as a chic beach bag. Wear it with your boho-chic dress or white jeans and a t-shirt.
Big, Black Shades
America's original First Lady of Style, Jackie O, took cover behind huge black sunglasses in the 60's and 70's, proving that bigger is definitely better. As exaggerated as they were, they didn't overpower her delicate features, and gave her a chic, glossy style.
How to Wear It: While the sunglasses of yesteryear were a style essential, today they are also a health essential, providing important protection against the harsh rays of the sun. Every woman needs a pair of great black shades, which shape and size you chose depends on the shape of your face. But take a lesson from Jackie: Don't be timid when it comes to your accessories. Go big and bold for maximum impact.
Statement Jewelry
One of the quickest ways to transform any outfit in a jiffy is with jewelry, real or faux. But since faux is more fun, and definitely more affordable, feel free to pile it on. Sarah Jessica Parker, is a pro at this, making every look her own by accessorizing in unexpected ways with lots of colorful, layered pieces.
How to Wear It: Mix and match till you find a look that's right for you and won't overpower your outfits. Wearing one piece can also be enough if it's big and bold. If you're traveling, bring a handful of earrings, cuffs and cocktail rings. They can brighten up any look, and they're so small they make for easy travel companions.

BOSTON – It's difficult to picture the 2010-11 Bruins' season and their run to the Stanley Cup Final without Nathan Horton.
With 26 goals in the regular season and eight more in the playoffs – including three of the most dramatic game-winning goals in franchise history – Horton has lived up to the hype surrounding his trade to Boston from around this time last year and written his own chapter in Bruins lore.
If you were to replay the Bruins' season without the 26-year-old forward, it might look something like the year his former team the Florida Panthers went through en route to another playoff-less spring.
Sure, Tim Thomas might've still stolen a bunch of games and a defense corps led by Zdeno Chara could've kept the opponents off the scoreboard, but the Bruins' offense probably wouldn't have ranked much higher than the 27th Horton's former mates ranked during the regular season. Earning a playoff spot would've been a dogfight.
That's how important Horton has been and how big a hole in the Bruins' lineup he leaves for the rest of the Stanley Cup Final against Vancouver now that he's out with a severe concussion suffered in Game 3.
The only realistic way for the Bruins to replace Horton's offensive production and his physical presence is with a committee of players. But there are a couple guys capable of increasing their contribution to the Bruins' cause enough to reduce the number of members that committee needs.
Most notably, Milan Lucic, Horton's linemate who has followed up a 30-goal regular season with just four goals in 21 playoff games, could take on more of the burden. He seems to know this is an opportunity for him to prove he's a legit, scoring power forward.
"It was nice having him on the right side there on our line. He's made a big impact for myself as far as becoming good friends and linemates," said Lucic today on the off day before tomorrow's Game 4. "I thought he was a big reason why I've been able to take my game to a new level. Now without him, I'm definitely going to have to step up and do more."
How much room Lucic will have to operate could depend on which winger Bruins head coach Claude Julien puts on the right side of Lucic and center David Krejci. Based on Monday night's game, there appears to be two leading candidates: Michael Ryder and Rich Peverley. In Ryder, the Bruins have a former two-time 30-goal scorer who hasn't lived up to expectations in three season in black and gold. And in Peverley they have a player who followed up his 22-goal 2009-10 season with 18 this year but has scored just twice in the postseason.
Ryder has more experience skating alongside Krejci than Peverley.
"I played with Krejci before and with Lucic on and off at times," said Ryder. "Yeah, I feel comfortable there. I'm not sure what Claude has planned. But if I get put in that position, I'll have to step it up and make sure I help those guys out as much as I can.
"I'm not Nathan Horton, but I can try to do what I can out there."
There's no telling if either guy will be able to find the hot hand. Like many players, including Peverley and Ryder, on the Bruins' roster, the postseason can be a fresh start. Although both players thrived – while on a line with Chris Kelly – during the Bruins first-round triumph over Montreal, they've cooled off considerably since.
But both Peverley and Ryder have first-line-caliber talent. The past production doesn't lie. Neither player is out of his prime or banged up (as far as we know). They should both look at Game 4 as their opening day. Everything from recent games and the entire season goes out the window. They have a chance to prove their first-line material.
There are other ways for the Bruins to survive, and maybe even win the Cup, without Horton. Brad Marchand could heat up after scoring his first goal of the series, Boston could build off its 2-for-4 power-play performance from Game 3 and maybe the club could get more offensive production from its fourth line despite scarce minutes.
Among the laundry list of options, the one most likely to happen and help the Bruins, however, is the Peverley/Ryder option. Both are going to get their chance to get the job done unless one comes out of the gates Wednesday and claims the spot as his own. With those two inconsistent performers, that's doubtful to happen.
Nathan Horton's difficult to replace, as the Florida Panthers found out. Whether it's a combination of both, or one outplaying the other, Michael Ryder and Rich Peverley have to step into the forefront and prove that there's depth in those black-and-gold sweaters, not just untapped talent.

DENVER Another gun bill has passed the state Legislature and is on its way to Gov. John Hickenlooper.
House Bill 1229, which cleared both the Senate and House on Friday, requires background checks for all gun sales, even among private parties. It was on track to pass Wednesday, but Republicans pointed out a problem with legalities regarding guns purchased by family-owned companies.
Sponsors fixed the problem, although opponents still argued the bill could expose well-meaning people to prosecution for sharing their guns with friends and family.
It wont help anything, and it makes common, everyday actions amongst friends and neighbors something thats now illegal in Colorado, said Sen. Greg Brophy, R-Wray.
But Democrats pointed out that existing background checks flag thousands of people a year who try to buy guns but arent allowed, because of their histories with crime, drug abuse or mental illness.
Its a common-sense, well-supported solution to this problem of so many guns in the hands of people who should not have them, said one of the sponsors, Rep. Beth McCann, D-Denver.
Recent polls show a majority of Coloradans support the idea, and the bill was the only piece of gun legislation that Hickenlooper singled out in his State of the State speech in January for explicit support.
In a sign of how charged the gun issue is at the Capitol, debates on the final, technical changes took all morning Friday in the Senate and all afternoon in the House.
Rep. Mike McLachlan, D-Durango, voted for the bill. Just one Democrat, Rep. Ed Vigil of Fort Garland, joined Republicans on the losing end of a 36-27 vote.
It is the third gun bill to land on Hickenloopers desk. Two more are still working their way through the House after passing the Senate.

Most headaches are caused by fatigue, emotional disorders, or allergies, with only about 2%
of all headaches resulting from organic disorders. These include:
Headaches brought on by muscle spasms are classified as tension
headaches; those caused by the dilation of blood vessels are called vascular headaches. Amore specialized classification, by the
International Headache Society, further divides headaches into 14 categories for research purposes! A system that helps the
phytotherapist select the appropriate remedy, would sub-divide headaches under these groupings:
Specific Remedies:
There is an abundance of plants that might be considered
specific "headache" herbs. Unfortunately they don't always work for all people!
If a clear cut underlying pathology
exists, that should be the focus of treatment. If none has been found, herbs should be selected that will ensure good elimination, support liver
function and address any specific health needs the patient might have.
Essential oils:
There are many essential oils
which can be used to relieve headaches. Particularly effective oils are Lavender, Rosemary and Peppermint, either separately or in
combination. Lavender can be rubbed on the temples, or made into a cold compress and applied to the temples, forehead
or the back of the neck. Equal parts of Lavender and Peppermint may be even more effective, for Lavender has the ability to enhance the
action of other oils when it is used in blends. It is also worth noting that whilst Lavender is a sedative, Peppermint is a stimulant, and that
many commercial headache remedies combine a stimulant (usually caffeine) with one or more analgesics. This is because many of the pain
killing drugs have a slightly sedative and sometimes even a depressant effect, and the caffeine is included to counteract this. By
using Lavender and Peppermint a similar effect is produced without the dangers inherent in synthetic drugs.
If the headache is caused
by catarrh or sinus infection, inhalations with Lavender, Peppermint, Rosemary or Eucalyptus will usually be very effective in both relieving
the headache and clearing the congestion that is causing it. All these oils are antiseptic, and will combat the nasal infection as well as giving
immediate relief of symptoms.

Movie stars might bring people into the theaters, but nobody can bring out the stars like theater owners. They have the ultimate power: deciding what movie to run and how long to run it. This year's National Association of Theater Owners convention (known as "Showest") lured a cavalcade of stars to its annual outing in Las Vegas, including Kevin Costner, Warren Beatty, Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster, Michael Douglas, Tom Cruise and Demi Moore — no dummies when it comes to the business of box office.
Costner hawked "Wyatt Earp," Gibson and Foster their western, "Maverick," and Tom Hanks his upcoming "Forrest Gump," although he admitted, "I really want to be on the convention floor to see the new innovations in nacho cheese-flavored toppings."
The biggest brouhaha was made by brand new Paramount owner Sumner Redstone. After Paramount prez Sherry Lansing, now rumored to be on shaky ground, made a speech pronouncing, "Now the turmoil is behind us," Redstone followed her to the mike by saying, "Thank you, Sherry, but the turmoil has just begun."

Jennifer Lawrence knows Katniss?
There's a Hunger Games profile in the new Vanity Fair featuring the cast in a photo that's rather similar to the magazine's shoot with the then-low profile cast of Twilight in 2008. Not sure if this is intentional since people are so eager for The Hunger Games to be the "next", but if it wasn't meant to be the same, someone in the Culture department needs some more imagination.
In addition to brief introductions to the fresh faces that make up the first installment of the series - click here to see - there's also a brief interview with the star of the franchise Jennifer Lawrence. I enjoyed reading her Katniss character analysis and, in particular, what she said to the film's director Gary Ross about how she thought Katniss should be portrayed:
"Katniss is an incredible character: she's a hunter but not a killer, a 16-year-old who's being forced into the arena. These kids are killing one another only because if they don't they'll die. It's needless, pointless, unjustified violence. It's heartbreaking. When I auditioned, I told [director] Gary [Ross], "I understand if you don't hire me, but please remember that after Katniss shoots a bow and kills someone, her face cannot be badass." So there's nothing cool about her. It's not like she looks around the arena and goes, Yeah, I got this. I think she looks around helplessly, and thinks, I made a promise to my sister that I would survive; now I have to kill in order to do so."
Do you approve? I do. A lot.
As for those incessant comparisons to Twilight - God people are dumb sometimes. How is a girl who KILLS PEOPLE the same as a girl who stands there and lets other people decide things for her??? Lawrence is a little more diplomatic about the differentiation:
"I try not to think too much about it. Hunger Games is not Twilight, and while I hear the comparisons, it's really premature to say that it will be the same phenomenon. I'm so proud of the work we did on the film—Gary and the entire cast and crew were amazing, and I can't wait for it to be brought to life because I think it's an important story. If it does become a crazy phenomenon, I'll soak up my freedom now!"

Elebits was an original title designed for the Wii and starred the titular creatures who have the ability to supply electricity when gathered together. As such, players were charged with locating and collecting the tiny Elebits creatures needed to power their home, and this basic concept has been retained for Elebits: The Adventures of Kai and Zero, but within a touch-screen adventure created specifically for the Nintendo handheld.
Elebits: The Adventures of Kai and Zero acts as a direct sequel to the Wii game, and adds a mystical slant to the story. The two titular heroes find themselves transported into a mysterious realm by a magical bus created by Kai's inventor Father. As they get used to their surroundings, the pair must use all their skills to gather the Elebits they will need to assist their progression, with Kai making good use of his special capture gun, which is used to grab the evasive Elebits, and lift, manipulate and move any objects in his path.
In addition to locating the various Elebits to power devices, players are also challenged with locating a new species of 'Omega' Elebits, who boast a wider range of abilities and act as side-kicks who accompany Kai through the vast stages. As the game progresses, 'Omega' Elebits capable of locating hidden areas, freezing water, and illuminating dark areas must be found and put to good use to progress to later stages.
The DS game also extends the multi-player elements of the Wii title, with the Nintendo DS Wi-Fi service allowing players to compete head-to-head, or in four-player battles to round up the errant power sources.
Elebits: The Adventures of Kai and Zero will be released for NDS fall 2008.

To Market, To Market
For this, we'll sing in the rain or bask in the sun. It's all good. Plus, Dover Days are here again, OperaDelaware presents "The Merry Widow," and the Wilmington Children's Chorus performs.
(page 1 of 4)
The Wilmington Flower Market is always held on Mother's Day weekend, and it almost always rains.
Devotees trudge around Rockford Park holding boxes of newly purchased heirloom tomato plants, original art and spicy mustards. Moms thrust strollers through sludge to photograph toddlers in the petting zoo. Teens text near the bandstand, when their favorite bands go on break. Foodies of all ages devour everything from pasta to Hy-Point ice cream.
The Flower Market is a tradition for which Delawareans enthusiastically don rain boots—or sandals, when the clouds break—to buy original art, flowers and other plants, and try the carnival rides.
Since its founding in 1921, this rain or occasionally shine ritual has raised about $5 million to support children's charities in Delaware.
"Our volunteers have a commitment to making children's lives better, but people who attend do just as much for charities as the volunteers do," says general chairperson Karen Laughlin. "That's what keeps the tradition going." This year's market is May 5-7. For more, call 995-5699, or visit wilmingtonflowermarket.org.

(Repeats with no change in content)
By Susan Cornwell and Jane Sutton
May 2 (Reuters) - With his renewed vow to close the detention camp for foreign terrorism suspects at Guantanamo Bay, U.S. President Barack Obama has effectively assigned himself a list of possible ways to take the prison's population down from 166 to zero.
Some would be more easily achieved than others.
In pledging to look again at an unfulfilled promise dating back to his first election campaign and early days in office in 2009, Obama made plain on Tuesday that it was untenable to keep the 11-year-old camp open.
A hunger strike at the camp at the U.S. Naval Base on Cuba began in February, has been joined by 100 of the inmates and has led to force-feedings to keep the weakest prisoners alive, sparking fresh outrage from rights groups over a prison opened under Republican President George W. Bush in 2002.
There were about 245 prisoners at Guantanamo when Obama, a Democrat, took office in 2009 and that has dropped to 166. But releases have slowed to a trickle under restrictions imposed by Congress, including a ban on any of them being brought to the United States. No prisoners have left Guantanamo this year.
Among current inmates, nine have been charged with crimes or convicted, 24 are considered eligible for possible prosecution, 47 are considered too dangerous for release but are not facing prosecution, and 86 have been cleared for transfer or release.
Obama has several options, although it could take a combination of several to clear the camp.
In January, the State Department reassigned the special envoy who had been in charge of trying to persuade countries to take Guantanamo inmates approved for release, Daniel Fried, and did not replace him. That was widely seen as a signal that Obama was giving up on closing the prison any time soon.
Fried arranged for the transfer out of scores of prisoners, but the departures slowed to a crawl after Congress imposed restrictions on them. White House spokesman Jay Carney said on Wednesday the administration was considering naming a senior diplomat to renew the focus on repatriation or transferring detainees.
Christopher Anders, the senior legislative counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union, said such a "point person" was sorely needed as a first step to manage the administration's effort - but that the person should be from the White House. "For the last three years at the White House, it's been like no one home" on Guantanamo, he said.
Obama has blamed Congress for interfering with his plan to close Guantanamo. Starting in 2011, Congress began restricting transfers out, saying the Defense Department first had to certify a number of things, including that the destination country was not a state sponsor of terrorism and would take action to make sure the individual would not threaten the United States.
Starting last year, Congress let some restrictions be waived if it was in the "national security interests" of the United States. Obama has not used the waiver or certification provisions.
"For the past two years, our committee has worked with our Senate counterparts to ensure that the certifications necessary to transfer detainees overseas are reasonable. The administration has never certified a single transfer," House Armed Services Committee Chairman Howard McKeon, a Republican, said this week.
The White House could have pushed harder for officials at the Pentagon to process certifications, said the ACLU's Anders.
Wells Dixon, a senior attorney at the Center for Constitutional Rights, a New York organization that has represented a number of Guantanamo prisoners, said Obama could order the Pentagon to begin certifying transfers out. But he also noted potential risks for the president. "There's no political upside" if Obama certifies that a prisoner can leave and then that prisoner later attacks U.S. interests, Dixon said.
Congress has prohibited the transfer of detainees to countries with troubled security situations. But the United States could decide that new Yemeni President Abd-Rabbu Mansour has taken adequate measures against al Qaeda and made the country stable enough to resume repatriations to Yemen.
Repatriations were halted in 2010 after a man trained by militants in Yemen tried to blow up a U.S.-bound plane in 2009.
Of the 86 prisoners cleared for transfer or release, 56 are Yemenis. The Yemeni government says it wants them home and is building a facility to hold them for rehabilitation.
That option also has a potential danger - if a repatriated Yemeni eventually attacked the United States or its interests.
Two years ago, Obama signed an executive order establishing extra review procedures for Guantanamo detainees to determine if continued detention were warranted, but the Periodic Review Boards have not been used.
This option looks fairly simple, since it involves carrying out the president's own executive order. But there may have been no rush to establish more reviews boards since prisoners cleared by earlier review boards are still being held.
Dixon suggested the administration could use court rulings to help get prisoners released. Two members of China's Muslim Uighur minority were resettled in El Salvador in April 2012, four years after a U.S. District Court in Washington ruled there were no grounds to hold them.
When prisoners challenge their detention in federal court, the government could decide not to contest the case, paving the way for a court order effecting the prisoner's release, said Dixon. He said that could happen in any of the more than 100 detainee "habeus corpus" cases filed in federal court.
Obama could instruct the Justice Department to stop contesting those cases.
The United States tried to work out a deal to transfer five senior Taliban prisoners back to Afghanistan in return for U.S. Army Sergeant Bowe Berghdal, who has been a prisoner of Taliban militants since 2009. The talks were suspended last year. But there will be pressure to return the Afghan prisoners when the U.S. combat mission in Afghanistan ends in 2014.
This option would depend on how relations evolve with Afghanistan. But the Taliban prisoner release plan also met strong resistance among some members of Congress, especially Republicans, who might object if it resurfaces.
The legal restrictions on transfers will expire at the end of the fiscal year, on Sept. 30, so Obama could urge Congress not to renew them - and make clear he considers that a political imperative.
If the restriction on transferring prisoners to the United States were allowed to expire, Obama could not only transfer Guantanamo prisoners to foreign countries, but could bring some back to the United States for trial in federal court.
But some Democrats as well as Republicans argue that bringing Guantanamo inmates to the United States is a security risk. Republican leaders in both chambers have made that a high-profile issue, and Republicans control the House of Representatives.
So the option could be bogged down in Washington politics.

And then there were four…
The MLS Cup Playoffs have reached the conference championship stage following a dramatic midweek of second-leg action in the conference semifinals. The race to this year's MLS Cup title is wide open after top seeds San Jose Earthquakes and Sporting Kansas City surprisingly fell at the 'last eight' hurdle.
It sets up two intriguing conference championship series, and having witnessed high drama in the MLS postseason to this stage, the excitement of these playoffs may be set to continue. Action begins on 'Remembrance Day' Sunday with the first-leg matches.
In Houston, Texas, the Eastern Conference Championship begins with fifth seed Houston Dynamo looking to put another postseason run together when they host second seed D.C. United - who dramatically defeated New York Red Bulls in the semis - at BBVA Compass Stadium. Sunday's first leg kicks off at 1 p.m. PT and can be seen live on MLS LIVE.
The series will then return to Washington, D.C., for the decisive second leg at RFK Stadium on Sunday, November 18. Kickoff is also set for 1 p.m. PT and can also be seen live on MLS LIVE.
The Western Conference Championship is a mouthwatering affair, as fourth seed and defending MLS Cup champions LA Galaxy meet third seed Seattle Sounders FC, who will play in a conference championship series for the first time in club's brief MLS history.
The first leg of this highly-anticipated contest will take place at The Home Depot Center in Carson, California, on Sunday night at 6 p.m. PT and can be seen live across Canada on TSN2 and RDS2.
The series will then head north to The Emerald City for the decisive second leg at CenturyLink Field in Seattle, Washington, on Sunday, November 18. Kickoff is also set for 6 p.m. PT and can also be seen live across Canada on TSN2 and RDS2.
The conference champions will then meet in the 2012 MLS Cup final on Saturday, December 1, at 1:30 p.m. PT. The final can be seen live across Canada on TSN and RDS. The final will be hosted by the club that finished the regular season with the most points in the MLS Supporters' Shield standings.

POCATELLO, Idaho — No allotments in Idaho or southeast Montana would be closed to grazing under the two preferred land management alternatives being considered to protect declining sage grouse populations, federal land managers said during a Jan. 13 public meeting.
The Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service are updating about 120 land management plans throughout 11 western states to better protect sage grouse.
In 2010, in response to a lawsuit, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ruled western sage grouse warranted listing, but action was precluded by higher priorities. USFWS identified primary threats as inadequate protective regulatory mechanisms and habitat concerns. Updating the plans should allay a major USFWS concern before the agency rules on an endangered species listing in Jan. 2015.
For Idaho and southeast Montana, the BLM and Forest Service released a draft environmental impact statement last November with six management alternatives, starting a 90-day public comment period that ends Jan. 29. The draft includes a no-action alternative, a no-grazing alternative and preferred alternatives created by the BLM and Forest Service and a task force appointed by Gov. Butch Otter. The agencies will factor the input in a final EIS due by early summer.
In addition to the Pocatello public meeting, Idaho meetings were scheduled for Jan. 6 in Murphy, Jan. 7 in Idaho Falls, Jan. 8 in Salmon, Jan. 14 in Twin Falls and Jan. 15 in Boise. A meeting was also hosted Jan. 9 in Dillon, Mont.
In an emailed newsletter, Idaho Cattle Association Executive Director Wyatt Prescott encouraged members to offer their comments.
"Our key message is that we support the state's efforts and the state's alternative, which paves the way for the continuance of grazing," said Prescott, whose organization was active in Otter's task force.
USFWS identified wildfires as the greatest threat to sage grouse in the Great Basin.
"We've had fires between 20,000 acres and 300,000 acres in the middle of critical habitat," said Forest Service wildlife biologist Chris Colt.
Caribou Targhee National Forest Supervisor Brent Larson hopes to minimize wildfire impacts by creating fire breaks or planting fire-resistant vegetation and strategically locating fire-suppression resources for a quicker response.
Though grazing can reduce fire fuels, USFWS also named grazing as a sage grouse threat due to potential ground-cover disturbances, explained Rob Mickelsen, Forest Service liaison for sage grouse planning.
Mickelsen explained the preferred alternatives offer three designations regarding the importance of habitat, with the greatest protections imposed on 4.8 million acres of core habitat under the governor's plan and 6.8 million acres of priority habitat under the BLM and Forest Service plan. Both alternatives require including sage grouse management objectives in grazing permits and imposing case-by-case changes in grazing practices if permit renewal reviews show adverse impacts to sage grouse.
Doug Balfour, an attorney representing southeast Idaho growers affected by the proposed Gateway West transmission line, asked the agencies to include recent results of a 10-year University of Nevada study showing a high-power transmission line had no adverse affects on the bird. Balfour emphasized both preferred alternatives would allow his clients' proposed route for the line through general sage grouse habitat.

First F-16 delivered to Oman
06 Aug 2005
On August 4th, Lockheed Martin formally delivered the first F-16 Block 50 to the Royal Air Force of Oman (RAFO) at a ceremony at Forth Worth, Texas. The aircraft is the first of 12 new F-16s to be produced for Oman.
In May 2002, the Sultanate of Oman signed an agreement with the U.S. government to purchase 12 Advanced Block 50 F-16s in the Peace A'sama A'safiya (Clear Skies) Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program. The agreement includes eight single-seat F-16Cs and four two-seat F-16Ds, powered by the General Electric F110-GE-129 engine.
The first Oman F-16 is a two-seat F-16D model and was accepted by the U.S. government (as agent for Oman in the FMS process) on July 19, one month ahead of schedule. The first single-seat F-16C version will fly in August and be accepted in September. These two aircraft will be ferried to Oman in mid-October to support the 35th National Day celebrations on November 18. The remainder of the aircraft will be ferried to Oman during 2006.

U.S. hog farmers are poised to produce a record amount of pork at a time when exports are slumping the most in more than a decade, prolonging a global glut into a fifth consecutive year.
The 10.66 million metric tons produced will be the most since at least 1970, the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates. Exports fell 14% in the first two months, the most for the period in government data since 2000. Futures may drop 20% to 72 cents a pound by the end of the year on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, based on the median of nine trader and analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Demand for pork from the U.S., the biggest exporter, is weakening as importers from South Korea to Japan expand domestic output. Exports are also retreating as China and Russia, the largest buyers after Japan, curb purchases of meat produced with ractopamine, a feed additive used in the U.S. Farmers are expanding output because costs are dropping as grain prices tumble from records set during last year's drought.
"It's hard to be very bullish right now," said Ron Plain, a livestock economist at the University of Missouri in Columbia who has studied the industry for about three decades. "2014 is likely to have more pork if the corn outlook turns out the way we expect it to."
Futures Contracts
Hogs for settlement in June, the most widely held contract on the CME, declined 7.7% to 90.35 cents this year. The Standard & Poor's GSCI Agriculture Index of eight commodities fell 5.8%, and the MSCI All-Country World Index of equities rose 4.6%. Treasuries returned 0.6%, a Bank of America Corp. index shows.
The U.S. hog herd reached 65.91 million head March 1, 1.5% more than a year earlier and the most for the date since 2008, USDA data show. The supply of breeding animals, an indication of future supply, was the most since 2009. Corn futures fell 25% in Chicago since reaching a record in August, as farmers prepare to plant the most acres since 1936.
Global pork production will rise 0.3% to an all-time high of 104.71 million tons this year, according to data from the USDA in Washington. Demand is estimated at 104.25 million tons, the highest level on record.
The U.S. shipped 820.8 million pounds (372,300 tons) in the first two months of 2013, USDA data show. Exports to China slumped 43%. The Asian nation said in February it would tighten import controls to ensure meat excluded ractopamine, used by some farmers to add lean muscle in livestock. The Chinese market remains open to U.S. pork, said Joe Schuele, a spokesman for the Denver-based U.S. Meat Export Federation.
