An icy Monday afternoon in Paris, December 2003, and a 68-year old organ player steps into Pere Lachaise cemetery to visit the grave of a long-deceased colleague. Ray Mazereck lights a candle and communes with the spirit of the Lizard King. But this is not The End, my friend.
A day later, Mr Mazereck and the 21st Century Doors take the stage at Paris' largest venue, Le Zenith, and resurrect the ghost. Due to his long-standing appointment in Pere Lachaise, original singer Jim Morrison is replaced by former-Cult vocalist Ian Astbury. Greatest hits are played. The crowd applaud. Critics are impressed. But where are the danger and the tension? Where are the riots and the arrests for indecency? The music lives on, just. But the thrill is gone.
On March 18th 1996 at a press conference the Sex Pistols announced their 'Filthy Lucre' reunion tour. Like The Doors, the Pistols also decided that the fact an original singer lies cold in the ground was no bar to entertaining audiences in Europe, North America and Japan. Forty-ish, fat and dressed in tartan and silver, they were not always appreciated as much as they hoped. In Scandinavia, they were nearly bottled off stage. Elsewhere, their snarling attack on society was met with yawns and embarrassed laughter.
The Velvet Underground, too, cashed in their dignity on a reunion tour. They completely sullied their legendary reputation by hamming it up in various arenas around Europe in 1993. Singer Lou Reed initially agreed to work amicably with fellow founding member, bassist/violist John Cale. But as the tour went on, Reed's megalomania took over and he refused to allow Cale any creative control over the proposed new VU studio album. A sad end to a truly great band.
And now, The Pixies, one of the most edgy and innovative bands of the 1980s and 1990s are joining the list of questionable reunions. They'll play at California's Coachella Festival in May 2004, 11 years after they split, along with The Cure, Radiohead, Kraftwerk, Air and The Flaming Lips. Pixies front man Frank Black, also known as Black Francis, admits he has had nightmares about the shows. 'I dreamed it's an utter failure and I don't know the songs, and hardly anyone turns up for the gig and people walk out. That's what I'm afraid of, that it'd be a big, big failure.'
People will turn up, of course, and no doubt they will enjoy themselves. The band will have fun too, out on the road again with old mates, reliving the time when they were young, creative and exciting. But many will be wondering, wouldn't it better to let the legend rest?

The Melbourne legend passed away peacefully at 8.20am on Tuesday morning Melbourne time surrounded by family and friends in his adopted city after a brutal two-and-a-half year fight with the disease.
Stynes had tackled the illness, which had spread to many parts of his body, with a zealous determination, giving graphic details of his crusade in a TV documentary as well as regularly updating his Twitter followers about his well-being.
Despite his frail figure, he tossed the coin at the first International Rules Test with his brother Brian between Ireland and Australia at the Etihad Stadium last October.
In November, he revealed he was using a trial drug which he hoped was his "saving grace".
However, he had also come to the saddening realisation he was going to die.
"Sometimes I sit with Sam and I'll start crying because I know what I'm going to miss out on and that gets hard," he said.
In a statement, Stynes' wife Sam said her husband had been able to join his son Tiernan at his seventh birthday party.
"Jim was pain free, dignified and peaceful. Matisse and Tiernan were present," she said.
"Not surprisingly, in his last week of life Jim continued to defy the odds and lived his life to the fullest [including] a casual Friday night dinner at Toplinos in his much loved suburb St Kilda.
"In his final days Jim was immersed with insurmountable love and tenderness surrounded by his family and some close friends in the comfort of his own home."
Sam also thanked those who had supported Stynes in his valiant attempt to rid himself of the disease.
She added: "Jim, in his passing, has made us see that in our grief that we can smile in our hearts for a beautiful man who will forever hold a special place in the hearts of many. Jim's lesson is that life was to be challenged and treasured."
Stynes was an Order of Australia recipient and a Victorian and Melbournian of the year following his sterling charity work with his organisation The Reach Foundation.
The Ballyboden man, who won an All-Ireland minor medal with Dublin in 1984, went on to enjoy a sparkling career with Melbourne, winning a Brownlow medal, the highest individual accolade in Australian Rules, in 1991.
He also holds the record for the consecutive amount of AFL games with 244. Stynes was a passionate supporter of the International Rules, representing both countries in the series as well as being an Australian selector in recent years.
Stynes' death follows that of Kerry's Sean Wight who passed away last June from lung cancer. He was also also part of the "Irish experiment" at Melbourne.
Former Dublin star and selector Paul Clarke, Stynes' captain in '84, last night said: "When we organised the '84 reunion a few years ago we Skyped him. He was ill, he was bald but he was still Jim Stynes.
"He entertained 24 of us for a half of hour, speaking to us either individually or in twos and he was great. I'm glad we did it.
"We had heard he wasn't well in recent months but you just thought, watching that documentary, that he was bulletproof.
"It's a shock but we'll remember him for the great he was."
On Twitter last night, cricketer Shane Warne and cyclist Lance Armstrong, a cancer survivor, expressed their sympathies for the Ballyboden man.
Warne tweeted: Very sad news with confirmation that Jim Stynes has passed away.. Condolences to all the Stynes family & friends, he was an inspiring man!"
Lance Armstrong wrote: "RIP Jim Stynes. We'll miss you mate."
Laois' Carlton AFL player Zach Tuohy tweeted: "Jim stynes doesnt just make me proud to be part of this sport and country, makes me, as he should make every irish person, proud to be irish!"

LOS ANGELES (AP)—Like many Gen-Xers, my present outlook on retirement falls somewhere between doom and gloom.
I fear a stock market collapse could decimate my investments as I near retirement—a fate that befell many retirees following the 2008 financial crisis. I'm highly skeptical that Social Security will be much help, if any, and I fret that I won't have enough money set aside to keep up with rising costs for everything from food and gas to housing.
Recently, however, I've started to consider whether retiring overseas might be a good strategy.
Moving to countries like Mexico, Ecuador and Thailand, where the cost of living can be far lower than in the U.S., can turn a modest nest egg into something more substantial.
"It's really not for everybody, but there are many places where your dollar can go a lot further abroad than it can here," says Gabrielle Redford, editorial projects manager for AARP The Magazine.
Americans have been retiring abroad for many years, some seeking a more adventurous and culturally exotic experience, others looking to save money.
It's hard to gauge how many there are, as the Census doesn't track Americans living abroad. The State Department estimates 6.3 million Americans live outside the U.S., but that only accounts for those who voluntarily report their status to U.S. embassies.
Still, many countries have established enclaves of American retirees. And the fallout from the 2007-2009 recession appears to have fueled greater interest.
"We hear anecdotally from readers that many more people are looking into these options," Redford says.
Doug Hall is such a retiree. The 61-year-old Atlanta resident retired in February and is planning on moving to Mexico City once he figures out whether to sell his house or rent it out.
He visited Mexico City many times in the 1980s, when he split time between the Mexican capital and Washington D.C. while working as a reporter for a Spanish-language newspaper.
He calculates that, after housing costs, he would spend 40 percent less on entertainment and other expenses living in Mexico City.
"And at the same standard of living—not reducing my standard of living one iota," he adds. "In Mexico City, if you want to go to the opera, it's there, and it's a third the price it would be in New York."
Spending one's golden years abroad is a non-starter for retirees who wish to remain close to family in the U.S. For it to be viable, retirees need a healthy sense of adventure and openness to another culture. But retiring abroad isn't just for those with a well-padded nest egg, either.
Someone with a modest retirement budget, even those living on Social Security alone, can do it, says Kathleen Peddicord, publisher of Liveandinvestoverseas.com, which caters primarily to American retirees living abroad. This group can benefit most significantly, Peddicord says.
Here are six steps to take before making a decision to retire overseas:
1. Size up your retirement income
How much you will earn from investments, a pension, Social Security or other sources will determine where you can afford to live comfortably. Experts suggest calculating monthly income, so you can compare that to likely monthly expenses, including housing, utilities, transportation, health care and food.
If your monthly income is $3,000 or more, you can probably retire just about anywhere, says Peddicord.
Try Firecalc.com, an online calculator designed to work out monthly retirement income.
2. Research and visit a few times
You can get plenty of information online about a country's history, politics, crime rate, economy, rental and real estate listings, and quality of life. Also tap into online forums of expat retirees living in the country. They can best relay how prices are faring at the grocery store, gasoline pump and elsewhere.
Buy also plan on making a few trips to the country before you commit to moving there.
"Stay there for a month or so, try to see what day-to-day life would be like, not the life of a tourist," Redford says.
3. Focus on cost of living, not exchange rates
The price of real estate, meals or a taxi are better indicators of how affordable a country is than how its currency is faring versus the dollar. That's because exchange rates fluctuate.
Also, a nation's cost of living can increase sharply.
Take Argentina, which used to be a bargain. It has seen inflation balloon 98 percent in the last five years. Even with U.S. dollars being well ahead of the Argentinean peso, you end up paying more.
Peddicord suggests keying on the monthly price of housing or rent. That will be the single biggest monthly expense and help you determine what you can afford.
To take full advantage of the affordability of some countries, retirees should also resist shopping as if they were still in the U.S. and emphasize local products rather than pricey imports.
4. Assess health care needs and options
Health-care access and affordability is a key roadblock to retiring overseas for some seniors because they would no longer be covered by Medicare.
That leaves a few options: Buying private insurance or going without insurance and paying as you go. Another option is to become a legal resident of the country, which typically grants access to any state-sponsored health care coverage.
One tip: Keep paying your monthly premiums for Medicare, in case you return to the U.S. and need it.
Bupa (bupa-intel.com) is among the companies that provide coverage internationally.
5. Review tax rules
As an American, you're still required to pay U.S. taxes while living abroad. Retirees must still file a return annually with the Internal Revenue Service. If you retain property in the U.S., like a home, you can expect to pay state taxes on that. Also expect that income from your 401(k) will be taxed. The IRS also taxes Social Security payouts, but it depends on your total income.
It's important to meet with a tax advisor to sort out potential tax liabilities of retiring overseas.
6. Find out immigration rules
Countries have different rules for how long a visitor can stay under a tourist visa, for example, so it's important to understand the country's policies. Most countries will allow foreigners to stay under a visitor visa between three to six months.
You may also want to find out the steps to become a legal resident, which can open doors to health care and other services. Countries like Panama and Belize are trying to attract more American retirees, so they offer more options for residency visas.
When applying for a residency visa, many countries ask to see proof that applicants can support themselves financially. This can vary. In Nicaragua, for instance, $800 a month is acceptable, while in Panama you need to show earnings of $1,200 a month.

These Vegan Carrot Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting are light, fluffy and decadently delicious.
The day before Thanksgiving was supposed to be a half day at work and a full day of fun. I couldn't wait to get home and start planning Thanksgiving dinner, and share with you this awesome recipe for vegan carrot cupcakes. Yesterday was also special because it marked an exact whole year since I started posting recipes on Holy Cow!
Instead, I spent the afternoon and evening glued to the television and computer, trying to get in touch with friends and watching in horror as Bombay, the city where I lived all my life before moving to the United States, reeled under terror.Each of those places targeted had special meaning for me. It hurt to see the blood-soaked lobby of the Victoria Terminus through which I had walked every morning and evening for six years, along with thousands of other commuters eager to get to work and back home. It hurt to watch the beautiful Taj Mahal Hotel, which I had toured with the hotel's architecture official while working on a story about Heritage buildings in the city, go up in flames. And it hurt to hear that the Oberoi lobby, where I had often hung out with friends, most memorably to catch a glimpse of Michael Jackson when he toured India, had been set on fire by the terrorists.
When I last heard from my friends in Bombay, many of them were still holed up in their homes or workplaces, hoping for an end to their long-drawn nightmare. Sadly, the terror is still not over as I write this, but hopefully it will be soon. And I know that Bombay will once again get back on its feet. The residents of Bombay are incredibly resilient and strong. They may not forget this ordeal any time soon, but rest assured, they will not let it hold them back.Because I'd already written out this carrot cupcake post, I'm just going to run it below. Thanks, everyone, for reading.***
'Tis the season for all things orange-- pumpkins, sweet potatoes.... and carrots!
The other day, I got a huge bag of lovely, fresh organic carrots and all the way home I dreamed of the luscious vegan carrot cake I was going to bake up. I even had some vegan cream cheese tucked away in the refrigerator for the frosting, so I was all set.
But when I actually rolled up my sleeves to begin, I was hit by an urge to bake cute little vegan carrot cupcakes instead. I love cupcakes because they have built-in portion control, which means you are less likely to overindulge no matter how delicious they are. Besides, who can resist a cute l'il baby cake festooned with icing? Not me.
I adapted this recipe from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World which has become my cupcake bible. The result was a fluffy and moist cupcake and I loved the crunch of the nuts with the sweet squishy bite of the juicy golden raisins.
So here is the recipe for these amazing vegan carrot cupcakes. Enjoy, everyone!

Give us a call! (607) 257-7810
Master Han D. Cho executes a Flying Side Kick (1989).
Master Cho is a 8th Dan black belt from the World Tae Kwon Do Federation (WTF), 9th Dan black belt from Moo Duk Kwan, and a Cornell alumnus. He has been teaching and coaching at Cornell for the last 31 years, and 27 years in the Ithaca community. His Cornell team has captured the Eastern Collegiate Taekwondo Conference (formerly Northeast Collegiate Tae Kwon Do League) cup over 23 times. He has promoted more than 200 black belts, many of whom have gone on to open their own schools. He was named the Coach of the Year in 1998 by the National Collegiate Tae Kwon Do Association, the official governing body for collegiate Tae Kwon Do programs in the U.S.
My life in Tae Kwon Do
By Han D. Cho
My journey into the martial art world started when I was in elementary school in
Korea. Tae Kwon Do was part of the Phys Ed. Program we all had to participate in once every week. Over a thousand of us would stay in lines doing basic stances while the master instructor shouted instructions in a megaphone. A team of children black belts would demonstrate the moves we were trying to learn, but I was often too far back in line to see them. When I did see them, I was most impressed with their high kicks and amazing flexibility. The black belt kids were there to inspire us, but I was rather embarrassed that I wasn't able to be like them. This memory of what I felt then serves me well now. As a teacher, I'm aware that what might be an inspiration to some might be discouragement to others. The trick is not only to show it, but to explain it. I must instill a positive attitude in the people I want to inspire.
I wanted to pursue Tae Kwon Do training further, but that meant I had to join a private school. Unfortunately, my family had limited resources at the time. I wasn't too disappointed, though. Instead of Tae Kwon Do, my first love of martial art was boxing. I was fascinated with the heroic element associated with the sport. Luckily, there was a boxing school in my neighborhood. I frequented the place to watch the fighters in training. I was too young to join the school, so I practiced the moves by myself when I came home. Sometimes the coaches in the school took notice of me and gave me tips here and there. Although the fate of my martial arts experience went towards Tae Kwon Do training, I never abandoned the beautiful moves of boxing. This knowledge served me well when different martial arts started mixing together during the '90s.
My family immigrated to
U.S. in 1977 in search of a better life. I was 11 years old. Instead of living a better life, however, I experienced something I never knew existed in my homeland - racism. I was the only Asian in school. I couldn't understand how some people could judge me without knowing me. Many kids wanted to test me; some challenged me to a fight. So I fought. I fought whoever challenged me. Unfortunately, the more I fought, the more challenges I received. I was scared. I learned firsthand that meeting force with force was not the answer. Violence didn't solve the problem. But I didn't want to avoid the challenges lest they might think all Asian boys were weak.
As soon as I started training Tae Kwon Do intensely, all my fights stopped. I learned how to walk away from a fight. Maybe because now I had nothing to prove to myself, but the real reason was that I didn't want to be bothered with it. After training so hard everyday, the last thing I wanted to do was fight. I was surprised to learn that my pride was still with me even after I turned away from a challenge. I took up Tae Kwon Do to learn how to fight better, but I ended up learning how not to fight. It gave be a strength I thought I never had. I became more confident. My life had changed dramatically. I learned to see positives before negatives. Tae Kwon Do gave me strength to live my life the way I wanted to live.
I also became more disciplined. I was a mediocre student before my Tae Kwon Do training, but I became a straight-A student afterwards. I also focused my energy in other sports, especially wrestling. For four years in high school, I learned many things about myself through wrestling, most notably, perseverance. It is a niche sport which only the ones who have ever been involved intensely could truly understand its immense influence. Like boxing, I never abandoned my love for wrestling.
I came to
Ithaca in 1985 to study engineering at Cornell. I did my best to train Tae Kwon Do by myself, but I soon realized I needed a support group. Unfortunately, some of the clubs on the campus didn't match my style. Then I met Sonny and Junny Whang during my sophomore year. They were in town for law school. Instantly, we realized the huge potential if we united our skills. We had different backgrounds in our training. I trained under one master and had a strong foundation in the basics. They had trained under various masters and had the progressive minds and experience. In 1987, Cornell Sport Tae Kwon Do was born. I must say, the 3 years we spent together working was one of the happiest times of my life. When it came time to graduate in 1989, I could not ignore the immense benefit Tae Kwon Do had given me. I decided to forgo my engineering career and pursue my future in teaching Tae Kwon Do. It was inevitable. In 1991, I opened my service to the
Ithaca community. If I thought making champions out of college students was most rewarding, I was wrong. Teaching Tae Kwon Do to children was my life's calling.
I was busy at perfecting my Tae Kwon Do curriculum during the '90s, but I paid close attention to the exciting new revolution in the world of martial art. In fact, if the internet revolutionized the way we communicated, then this martial art revolution was just as huge. For centuries, different martial arts remained separate because of tradition, distance, and culture. Then through competitions like UFC and PRIDE championships, and with the help of the Internet and globalization, martial artists all over the world realized how much more effective their skills could be if they combined the different styles in their training. Thus, out of this melting pot, emerged a new marital art called Mixed Martial Art (MMA). My knowledge in Tae Kwon Do, both traditional and competitional, and my cross training with boxing and wrestling allowed me to adopt this new martial art well. In 2001, I added my Mixed Martial Art curriculum to my Tae Kwon Do curriculum. The results have been tremendous.
Because of my expansive curriculum, I am frequently asked whether I am a traditional martial artist or a modern martial artist. My answer to that question is that I am both. I am a traditional martial artist because I believe martial art is more than just kicking and punching. It is about how we view our world and our lives. I find beauty in the way early martial artists used their moves to unite their mind and body. Their techniques fascinate me. I want to preserve that history. Traditional martial art is an expression, an expression to reach inner peace in all of us. It's no different than an old painting, or a song, or a poem; it touches my soul. Some things only get better as time goes by. Martial art is spiritual to me.
I am also a modern martial artist because I believe in progress. If we are secure with our traditions then we must not be bound by it. We must learn to adapt in a constantly changing world. As a teacher, I must not only instill a tradition on my students, but also show them my courage to make changes. Martial art is changing very rapidly right now. Because of globalization, new techniques are being developed constantly. It changed more in the last 10 years than any other times in the past. To me, this is truly exciting. Before the mixed martial art revolution, I didn't like the way martial art was heading. The influence of media and movies made martial artists seemed almost cartoonish. People actually believed some masters could kill you with one grip, or shoot you with fireballs coming out of their bare hands, or disappear into thin air. Even more appalling was how some masters actually took advantage of this misinformed public to make money. The beauty of martial art moves lies in leverage, timing, and precision, not fantasy. Practicality is important. Modern martial art such as boxing, wrestling, sport Tae Kwon Do, sport Jujitsu, and kickboxing are practical because their techniques are derived from competition, not just from theory. Martial art is a science to me.
Currently, I am living in a life of my dreams. I get to share what I love and be loved for what I do. Everyday, I have a chance to see people of all ages practice Tae Kwon Do. I see them work hard and improve. There is a smile of a tiny 4-year-old girl who finally understands the first 8 moves of her first poomse. There is a 50-year-old father of two who can do more push-ups than anyone in the school. There is a junior high school girl sparring with her mother in preparation for her upcoming tournament. No one cares how old you are, or where you come from, or how you look, or what you do; everyone is equal and everyone strives for one common goal. Everyday, I am inspired. Everyday, I am humbled. In teaching Tae Kwon Do, I have come to full circle with my martial art experience. I am now at the beginning once again.

Documents show Canadian government tweaking its U.S. sales pitch
Congressional backers of Keystone XL have long pointed to its allowance for light oil from the Bakken Shale play -- a U.S. on-ramp that the pipeline's Canadian sponsor initially resisted -- as proof that the oil sands crude link would be vital to domestic fuel production.
Canada's government also has embraced the American-oil argument this year as it intensifies a push to win a presidential permit for KXL.
But internal documents that Canadian conservationists acquired through their nation's Access to Information Act show the Natural Resources ministry changing its depiction of the pipeline's U.S. crude capacity from a guaranteed minimum to a potential maximum.
A memo prepared for Canadian Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver's March visits to Chicago and Houston, released by the Pembina Institute green group, states that "at least 20 percent of the crude carried by Keystone XL would be American." During both U.S. speeches that month, Oliver described that crude cargo as "from the U.S. Bakken."
When Oliver returned to the United States in April for a speech in New York, his briefing notes replaced the phrase "at least 20 percent" with "up to 30 percent."
The infrastructure planned for KXL by sponsor TransCanada Corp. includes two possible access points for U.S. crude along the pipeline's nearly 2,000-mile trip from the oil sands of Alberta to Gulf Coast refineries. The first sits near the Bakken in Montana and can accept up to 100,000 barrels per day (bpd), while the second would allow up to 150,000 bpd to enter in Cushing, Okla.
In order for KXL to carry at least 20 percent American oil, it would need to accept between 140,000 and 166,000 bpd from those two on-ramps. That range aligns with the total volume of crude that left the Bakken by pipeline in February, according to the North Dakota Pipeline Authority's most recent estimates, which show 20 percent of oil departing the region by pipe compared with 71 percent by rail.
For KXL to accept 30 percent U.S. crude, both on-ramps would need to run at full strength, shipping 250,000 bpd of the pipeline's initial 700,000-barrel capacity. TransCanada told the State Department during its KXL review that it had secured commitments from Bakken shippers to run 65,000 bpd of oil from the northern access point.
"Up to 250,000 barrels of oil per day can come from both the Bakken and other U.S. sources (i.e., Cushing, Oklahoma, Texas, for example)," company spokesman Shawn Howard said via email. Confidentiality agreements with crude shippers prevent TransCanada from discussing the specific apportionment of space on the Keystone system, he added.
Critics of KXL charged Oliver and other pipeline promoters with putting a false all-American spin on the project to lock down U.S. support.
"This is a clear instance of the pro-Keystone XL camp telling Americans what it thinks they want to hear about the tar sands pipeline, whether it's true or not," Natural Resources Defense Council international program attorney Anthony Swift said via email.
"It was only after a long battle that TransCanada permitted a small on-ramp in Montana. When push comes to shove, Keystone XL is a proposed tar sands pipeline -- and if approved, that's what it will move."
A spokeswoman for Natural Resources Canada, Jacinthe Perras, attributed its portrayal of KXL's U.S. capacity to TransCanada and Oil Sands Fact Check, a pro-pipeline group supported by the American Petroleum Institute (API) and other industry players. That group stated last year that 25 percent "of the oil that will run through KXL would be from U.S. sources."
Perras, of the Canadian government, followed Oliver's April comments in describing the American space on KXL. "TransCanada has indicated that as much as 25 percent of the oil delivered by Keystone XL will be U.S.-produced oil from North Dakota, Montana and Oklahoma -- domestic oil which bottlenecks currently keep from getting efficiently to refineries," she said.
The change from minimum to maximum language in describing the pipeline's U.S. oil is not the only messaging shift indicated by the documents Pembina obtained. Between March and April, Natural Resources Canada's description of KXL as necessary "in order for crude oil production to grow" changed to reflect the spring conclusion of the U.S. State Department that the project's fate "is unlikely to have a substantial impact on the rate of development in the oil sands" (Greenwire, Aug. 26).
The federal policy director at Pembina, Clare Demerse, said in an interview that her government tends to emphasize the U.S. crude capacity of KXL only when leaving home to push for the project.
"In Canada, the government tries to make the case for Keystone by talking about getting a better price for the oil sands and generating economic benefits," she said. "On this side of the border, we hear very little from the government about the potential upside for the U.S. energy industry."
Given the meteoric rise of oil-by-rail in the Bakken, the ability of its still-humming wells to produce enough to fill proposed crude pipelines remains an open question. Tulsa, Okla.-based ONEOK Inc. last year canceled its plans for a $1.8 billion pipeline between the Bakken area and Cushing, pointing to a lack of shipper interest.
"As projects to increase pipeline capacity to more than 650,000 [bpd] and rail capacity to nearly 900,000 [bpd] come online in 2013, takeaway capacity from the Bakken could possibly exceed production growth," the Energy Information Administration wrote in March.
Continental Resources Inc. CEO Harold Hamm, once a major booster of KXL's Bakken on-ramp, told National Journal recently that he no longer believes it is necessary but still plans to keep his commitment to ship 35,000 bpd if the controversial pipeline is approved.

Webster University Introduces Military Tuition Assistance Protection (MTAP) Plan
Mar. 14, 2013
ST. LOUIS, March14, 2013 – Webster University is stepping up to provide military students
with access to funds for their education following the suspension of Department of
Defense tuition assistance (TA) funds due to the sequestration. Through the Webster
Military Tuition Assistance Protection (MTAP) Plan, eligible and qualifying current,
transfer and new students will receive a Webster grant covering the suspended TA payment.
Military services suspended tuition assistance programs as a result of sequestration. Members of the military were informed that new applications for tuition assistance will not be accepted due to the $85 billion in automatic spending cuts that went into effect on March 1, 2013. Thousands of service members take advantage of the tuition assistance program, which allows them to take college courses that prepare them for their jobs in the military and for their transition to the civilian workforce.
"We are proud to serve our service members at this crucial time," said Brig. Gen. Mike Callan, USAF (Ret), Webster University associate vice president for Military and Governmental Programs. "We don't want them to have to interrupt their studies due to the lost TA payment, and this is the least we can do to help them when they do so much for us."
Rated one of the top schools for military students by Military Advanced Education Magazine, Webster University is offering the MTAP Plan which includes:
- Grant covering up to $250 per credit hour to replace the suspended U.S. Government TA funds.
- Reimburses current Webster University students registered for the Spring II term who have already replaced the suspended U.S. Government TA funds with their own monies.
- Immediate assistance for Spring II (begins March 18) and summer enrollment.
This grant can be used for undergraduate or graduate classes – both in class and online
at any Webster University location, including our 39 military locations. Grants will
be given for Spring II, which begins on March 18, and for the Summer term, unless
the military tuition assistance is reinstated. When the military tuition assistance
is reinstated, the Webster MTAP Plan will cease. Students interested in pursuing Webster's
MTAP plan should contact the Webster location of choice.
"Enriching lives and creating opportunities for purposeful careers is an essential part of our commitment to be the first choice for military education," said Webster University President Elizabeth (Beth) J. Stroble. "That means being there to support them during this difficult time. We believe it is important to equip service members with the resources to continue their career advancement."
"Degree completion is critical to advancing one's career," said Julian Schuster, Webster's Provost, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. "Whether a military student is preparing for promotion to higher levels of responsibility or transitioning out of the military into another career, uninterrupted studies are the best way to help military students reach their goals successfully and efficiently."
About Webster University's Service-to-Service Members
Webster University's service-to-service members dates back to 1974, when, at the invitation of the Department of Defense, Webster offered its programs for the first time at Ft. Sheridan, located north of Chicago. Programs at Scott Air Force Base near St. Louis followed soon thereafter. Today, Webster is nationally recognized for being military friendly and is one of the largest providers of graduate-level military education in the United States; more than 6,000 of Webster's 22,000 students have a military connection. Webster's high-ranking military alumni include over 200 active-duty Generals and Admirals. Webster has been recognized as a Top School for Military Students by Military Advanced Education Magazine and has been recognized for outstanding contributions to military education by the Council of College and Military Educators.
In 2012, Webster took the first step in developing an Office of Military Affairs by hiring retired Brig. Gen. Michael W. Callan (USAF) as associate vice president for Military and Governmental Programs. Callan provides leadership and strategic direction for Webster's alliances with all branches of the military related to the development and delivery of education programs and develops and strengthens relationships with federal and state agencies.

Peer support for Wood
ANAHEIM – Kevin Kouzmanoff has been there, done that. The terrible start. The mental strain and drain. He knows what Brandon Wood has been going through in his search for quality at-bats and line drives that find open spaces, not gloves.
For Kouzmanoff, now the third baseman for the Athletics, it happened in 2007, after he was acquired by the Padres from the Indians in exchange for Josh Barfield. His start with San Diego was every bit as discouraging as what Wood is enduring, lugging a .102 batting average into Sunday's series finale against the Yankees with five hits in 49 at-bats.
Kouzmanoff was batting .108 in 93 at-bats on May 7. The Padres were close to demoting him, but when third baseman Russell Branyan left the team after a relative died, Kouzmanoff was kept in the lineup by manager Bud Black, former pitching coach for Angels manager Mike Scioscia.
From May 8 to season's end, he batted .309 with 17 home runs in 118 games.
"It was very frustrating," Kouzmanoff said. "I was afraid to go out in public. It was embarrassing. I was lucky to have teammates who were pulling for me and to have a manager who believed in me. But I knew I could play the game. It was just a matter of bringing it out.
"I've watched [Wood] and he's a good player. He's here for a reason. He just needs to stick with it."
Wood delivered in a big situation on Sunday against the Yankees. With his team down by a run and the bases loaded with one out in the fourth, Wood sent Javier Vazquez's first pitch, a curveball, on a line to left. It fell in front of a tumbling Marcus Thames for a two-run double. Wood had been hitting in bad luck, having been robbed on a number of occasions of hits and RBIs on diving plays.
The kid was due for a break, and he finally got one to fall. — Lyle Spencer

Brandon Wood checking in with a double to take the lead 3-5 v.s. the Yankz– Go Halos Halo-Space.com
lets think team win. Brandon is not even close to Isturis on defense. he is too stiff for third base and not quick however we must support. I just wonder how Isturis is doing being slighted by his coaches considering he has been a team player for so many years.
I've been a Wood supporter since day 1. I thought that by giving him some consistent playing time, he would come around and show his stuff at the plate. Unfortunately, other than a couple of back to back games where he showed some flashes of good consistent professional hitting, he's just looked completely lost at the plate. I watch every game, so I can see the development. Unfortunately, at this point, it doesn't appear that he can handle the off speed stuff such as breaking balls and change ups. Defense is good, but the offensive is just not there. Right now, he's a for sure out for the defense. I really like the kid they brought up for one night and got 3 hits while playing third. I can't even think of his name right now, but I really liked his approach and skills at the plate. We really need to get to see him more. I really think it may be time to get to see him more, who knows.
On another note, the kid Matt Ryan has a heck of swing. We really need to see him more. Matsui and Rivera are just not getting it done. We need to see more of the kid.
After almost a quarter of the season in, I think I would make the following changes and see what happens:
1) Make Fernando Rodney the closer.
2) Make Kevin Jepsen the 8th inning guy. This guy has intimidating stuff.
3) Move Fuentes to a 6th or 7th inning guy. He is not an over powering guy that is going to dominate and close out a game for you. The American league is on to him. He's is very average.
4) Send Scott Shields down to triple A to work stuff out. Love Scotty for what he's done in the past, but he's just not right.
5) I'll stick with Stokes & Bulger for a little longer, but they should be close to getting the hook and looking at other alternatives.
6) Start Kevin Frandsen at 3rd for consecutive nights and see how he responds. I want to believe in Brandon Wood, so maybe give him a little more time, but he just really looks lost at the plate against consistent big league pitching. When healthy Izzy can play more 3rd too.
This is just painful to watch. I'm patient, but I'm gonna start worrying if this continues through June.
Sit Wood for a few games. Send Frandsen down and bring Quinlan up. I have never seen Quinlan make an error at third. I have seen Frandsen make three in three starts. It's not like Frandsen is tearing it up offensively either.

Chen, Duffy to take mound in spring opener
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Left-hander Bruce Chen will start the Royals' first Cactus League game against the Rangers on Thursday at Surprise Stadium. Another lefty, Danny Duffy, is also scheduled to pitch.
Chen, expected to pitch two innings, is already slotted into the Royals' starting rotation, so there's no urgency for him to perform well enough to win a spot. That was the situation last spring when Chen lost a battle for the last rotation spot to Luis Mendoza.
"The most important thing is to be ready for the season and there are some things I need to do -- first of all, I need to get my arm strength, I need to make sure I pound the strike zone, I need to make sure I have my fastball command," Chen said.
Duffy, on the other hand, would like a good showing because he's one of several pitchers competing for the fifth starting spot this year.
No word yet on the Rangers' starter.

Search for sentimental, lost hat causes Internet sensation
LAS CRUCES -- A brown knit hat, lost at a Phoenix airport, has caused an Internet stir and left a Las Cruces woman scratching her head at the international outpouring of support for her quest to reclaim it.
Bridget Hughes, 23, had gone to visit her aunt in Florida and was catching a few winks while waiting to board a red-eye connection to El Paso from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
"I went down to take a nap and used the hat to cover my eyes," she said. "I tried to get as much sleep as I could. I had to work the next day."
So, why such an Internet uproar over a misplaced hat?
It was more than a knitted source of warmth. It was the hat her mother, Lynn Hughes, wore when chemotherapy treatments for breast cancer thinned her hair. Her mother lost that battle when Bridget was only 7, and the hat remained a reminder and a comfort during the intervening 16 years.
After waking from her catnap only to hear her flight out of Phoenix was canceled, Hughes, a volunteer preschool teacher at Jardin de los Ninos, was off to a hotel to try and fly another day.
"I was really, really ready to be lying down in the hotel after the flight was canceled," she said. "Somewhere between there and the hotel I misplaced it.
"I realized it was gone the next morning when I went to put it on before breakfast. I searched the hotel, lost and found," she said. "At that point I had other things to do, get to the airport and get checked in."
After scurrying through security, her planned flight didn't work out, so she took the time to do some reconnaissance -- to no avail.
"After I went through security and waited on the first flight, I was able to go to the gate from the night before and walk through the airport trying to find it."
No luck, but lots of support from the airport staff who created a file on the AWOL cap.
Airport spokeswoman Julie Rodriguez says the airport's lost-and-found has received several calls about the hat. Rodriguez says there's no need for the public to report it. Airport employees have been working hard to find it.
"It will have a special place to go," Hughes said.
Lost and found
With her heartwarming headpiece missing, Hughes took a long shot, placing a photo of her wearing the hat on her Facebook page and letting her friends know what had happened in hopes the hat would turn up.
She thought her community of friends from Juniata College in Huntingdon, Pa., might come across it in their travels. Then the college picked up her post and, from there, her story went viral. By Friday, her post had been "liked" more than 23,000 times and had been shared across the Internet more than 150,000 times. Well-wishers from all over the United States and overseas had chimed in to offer her support -- a response she said she never expected.
"I think I first realized it when I came home from work Wednesday night," she said. "When I had gone to bed the night before, there were 35 likes. When I got home from work there were 1,000 and every time I refreshed the page it was 100 more.
"I realized then that I had created something that was snowballing, especially because all I had done was post a picture," she said. "People just picked it up and it was gone."
Gone, indeed. Gone to Florida, California, Scotland, Germany, Kansas and Quebec. Gone, like a hat blown away in the wind.
"Here is to getting your mom's hat, and all the wonderful people trying to help you," posted Debbie McQuade from Citrus County, Fla.
"I hope someone finds it and returns it," posted Carol Kinsley from Rhode Island. "I lost my mom when I was 24 and still miss her every day. Will say a prayer for the safe return of your hat."
While the small, knit hat remains at large, the outpouring of support has comfort of it's own, she said.
And what would her mother say about all the hubbub over a hat?
"I think she finds it hysterical," Hughes said. "She was a person who just naturally built community around her and she had a wonderful sense of humor. She would be loving the community reaction and ... the surrealness of the situation would be very funny to her."
The surrealness has even stunned her boyfriend, Joshua Mooney who lives on post at White Sands Missile Range. Reporters have even called him while on base to get his take on the situation, she said.
"He thinks it's really funny," she said. "He was joking with me that he's my trophy boyfriend now."
Still hatless, her humor remains intact and, she said, there are lessons to learn from her unexpected moment of fame.
"To care for the little things in each other's lives, because sometimes those can be big things. Cheesy as it sounds, God is full of surprises and He uses just about anything."
